Absolute Regression Chapter 500

The Demon Extermination Corps led by 500
Jin Ha-gun entered the Junggyeongjidan of the Murim Alliance.

The sight that came into Ju-gwol’s eyes as he ran out after hearing the news.

Eight demon slayers were entering the training ground, circling one person in the center.

Ju-Gwol realized that the person being held in the middle was the man in the painting.

“Got it!”

The martial artists of the Murim Alliance who were watching all shouted in joy.

Immediately afterwards, a torrent of murderous intent poured out towards Seo Dae-ryong. If it weren’t for Jin Ha-gun and the Myeolma-dae, they would have poured out curses and jeers.

Ju-gwol ran to Jin-ha-gun. His gaze towards Jin-ha-gun became much softer.

“Well done.”

I was worried that Geommugeuk would not let Mines off because they were friends, but Jin Ha-gun brought Seo Dae-ryong with him.

‘You have to distinguish between construction and other work properly like this.’

In fact, the distinction between public and private was also difficult for the main palace.

These incidents took place in Chongqing, where he was in charge, and naturally he was close to the famous Jangju and the Daejungmunju. Therefore, this incident had a great deal of personal influence on him.

Ju-Gwol glared at Seo Dae-Ryong with a scary look.

However, Seo Dae-ryong pretended not to notice the gaze and only looked at the back of the head of the man walking in front of him.

‘Little Master, I’ve really had all sorts of experiences in my life.’

I heard shouts of congratulations for winning the Moorim Alliance Little Dragon Tournament, and this time I received such an intense sense of hatred.

The place we entered was the investigation room of the Chungking District Police Station.

He who used to interrogate criminals in the Hwangcheon Pavilion’s investigation room is now sitting here as a criminal.

Seo Dae-ryong let out a light sigh and looked around. Although he was using him as bait to carry out his plan, he was nervous and scared when he actually entered the Murim Alliance’s investigation room.

From now on, you have to be very careful. Right now, the Demon Squad is protecting you like an iron wall, but you never know when they might find an opening to kill you.

The first person to enter there was Jin Ha-gun.

“Aren’t you thirsty?”

“it’s okay.”

Seo Dae-ryong answered Jin Ha-gun’s question politely.

If we only consider the footnotes and the main note, Seo Dae-ryong was actually higher. However, the reason he was respectful was because Jin Ha-gun was a powerful candidate for the next leader, and more than anything, he was a friend of the minor sect leader.

“Thank you for your concern.”

The one who should be grateful was Jin Ha-gun. The rumor that he had caught the evil spirit would spread, and that would soon greatly increase his reputation.

“Aren’t you scared?”

“The cult leader promised. He said he would definitely take me out even if I was swallowed by a monster. Then all I have to do is get swallowed up deliciously.”

If I had heard something like that before I knew Geommugeuk, I would have laughed inwardly.

You are being used.

But now I started to envy Seo Dae-ryong. And then I came to a conclusion. No matter how I looked at it, these eyes were not the seven-point eyes.

“The investigators will be here soon. They will try to get a confession out of you somehow.”

“I am prepared.”

Rather, Seo Dae-ryong was worried about Jin Ha-gun.

“Your Majesty, please do not stay with me if possible.”

“Are you worried about me?”

“Isn’t there any need to be together in a situation that could be dangerous?”

Seo Dae-ryong wasn’t worried about Jin Ha-gun. He was worried about the little sect leader. He knew how heartbroken he would be if he lost his friend.

That’s when investigators came in.

Jin Ha-gun said to them.

“I will thoroughly reveal the truth.”

“All right.”

Jin Ha-gun looked at Seo Dae-ryong once and then left.

The royal palace of Zidane was waiting outside the door.

“Lee Ja is the disciple of the Bloodthirsty Demon. The Demon Lord may come to save him, so make sure to prepare for the defense of the Earth.”

“You wouldn’t dare think of entering this world.”

Starting with the Seomseo District Office, support troops were arriving one after another from nearby districts.

“So, isn’t His Majesty letting down his guard right now?”

Joo-gwol said politely with an “Oh no” expression.

“I will guard it well without letting my guard down.”

But I was still confident that we wouldn’t be able to raid this place.

Jin Ha-gun came out of the building.

By joining hands with Geommugeuk, he made a move that exceeded his opponent’s expectations.

‘So, how are you guys going to come out now?’

* * *

An old fortune teller sat on the corner of a market street in Chongqing. His face was covered with wrinkles that showed the ravages of time, and he watched the people passing by with eyes that seemed to know all the secrets of life.

On the mat spread before him were various objects used in fortune telling. Burning candles and incense, turtle shells painted in strange colors, fortune-telling coins called jeomdong, talismans written in red, and even a wooden barrel full of fortune-telling sticks. There was literally everything.

Many pedestrians passed by in front of him, but no one paid any attention. The old fortuneteller also looked relaxed, as if he didn’t care whether he was doing business or not.

Then finally the guest arrived.

A man passing by squatted down. He was a man with an ordinary appearance and clothes.

The old fortuneteller looked at the man’s face and said.

“Your face is full of misfortune.”

“I’ll get that right. If you’re someone who’s doing well, would you look here?”

Passersby who heard those words laughed.

“Let’s take a look and see how much it doesn’t come off.”

The old fortune teller shook his fortune-teller’s stick and closed his eyes tightly. The moment he closed his eyes, the fates of the two people changed.

The old man heard the guest’s voice.

-The disciple of Blood Heavenly Demon was captured by the Demon Squad.

Although it was a report of unexpected content, the old man with his eyes closed was not shaken at all.

-The leader of the cult gave his right arm? That’s quite something.

The old man also knew that Seo Dae-ryong was the right-hand man of Geommu-geuk, and that he had intentionally caused his arrest.

The old man opened his eyes and held out a bucket full of bamboo sticks.

“Your future is here, so choose one.”

The man chose one of them.

One of the bamboo sticks was sticking out slightly, and the man pulled it out.

-Writing new history with blood.

Surprisingly, the old man had anticipated that Seodaeryong would be captured, and had already made a plan for what to do afterwards.

The man could see the meaning of this command.

It means to attack the central government and create a sea of ​​blood.

If this situation actually happens, the ill feelings of the people of the Demonic Cult towards the Demonic Cult will reach the peak.

―The unmanned troops who came to support the Chongqing District are gathered here. So they will let their guard down, so this surprise attack will actually be very effective.

Since there are so many unmanned personnel coming from outside, it could cause even greater confusion.

This was the man’s concern.

-But since there is a demon slayer force, our sacrifices will be great.

The level of the general unmanned units and the Demon Squad are on a different level. The experienced Demon Squad unmanned units will be able to correct any confusing situation in an instant.

Then the old man held out the can again.

“Is the first divination not enough? Then choose one more.”

As if this was also prepared, one of the bamboo sticks was slightly protruding.

This time too, the man took it out.

―Those who have disappeared will help those who remain.

The man immediately understood what this command meant.

“What do you think? Will this be enough for you to survive?”

The moment their eyes met, the two returned to being fortune teller and customer.

“I think it’s worth a try. Thank you!”

The man gave a few coins and got up from his seat.

“Give me some more lottery tickets and go!”

“If I succeed, I’ll come back and give you the lottery tickets I wasn’t able to give you.”

“I haven’t seen a single person bring it back!”

The old fortune teller shouted loudly, but the man pretended not to hear and disappeared into the crowd. People watching from the other side of the street laughed at the sight.

The old fortuneteller picked up the bamboo stick that the man had pulled out and put it back in the box. The letters that had been written on the stick had disappeared, either from the customer’s fingertips or the old man’s.

The old man kept yawning and watching people passing by, and soon began to nod off.

* * *

Geommugeuk and Jin Hagun stood side by side.

The place where they were standing was on a hill with a clear view of the Junggye District.

“You must be having a hard time, guy.”

“You have stronger mental strength than you look.”

Seo Dae-ryong was under investigation all day long, except for the time he spent eating and sleeping. But he held up well.

“Since you’re originally an investigator from Hwangcheon-gak, you’ll be able to see through the minds of other investigators.”

Although he said that, there was worry in Geommugeuk’s eyes.

“Do you know that I am watching over you without taking my eyes off you for even a moment?”

“I see.”

“how?”

“He would have done the same.”

“I guess I should start by making my right arm too.”

Geommugeuk laughed along with Jin Hagun’s joke.

That was when.

A warrior from the Destruction Corps ran over and reported quickly. Since there was a swordsman next to him, he reported over the phone.

– We have discovered the activities of a famous person.

Jin Ha-gun was shocked by his subordinate’s report. In the famous field, there was only blood, and not a single corpse.

-He’s alive?

-Yes, I found out that he was being held captive by a group of unmanned personnel.

Jin Ha-gun ordered his subordinates.

“Prepare to deploy the Demon Squad immediately.”

“yes!”

After his men left, Jin Ha-gun relayed this information to Geommu-geuk.

“The famous general is still alive.”

The gaze of the swordsman became intense. Since their bodies were gone, it was somewhat expected. But coincidentally, his actions were revealed at this time?

“I’ll go with the Demon Squad and rescue him.”

Jin Ha-gun also had his doubts, but he had to go anyway. If the famous general was alive, he had to save him.

The sword dance brought up three possibilities.

Jin Ha-gun, who went to rescue them, dies.

The Junggyeongjidan warriors who were guarding the West Dragon are killed.

Seo Dae-ryong dies.

All cases were worst.

Obviously they will do one of these three things.

The sword dance was something that had been planned for this moment.

“I have two requests.”

“What?”

“First, let them enter the central government.”

Jin Ha-gun knew who the Geommu-geuk was talking about because he had already received the report from Maeng.

When Jin Ha-gun hesitated to answer, Geommu-geuk persuaded him.

“I know. How burdensome it is for you to allow that. But think about the problems that may arise if you do not allow it. I will do my best to keep it as secret as possible.”

Jin Ha-gun’s worries did not last long.

“Okay, let’s do that. But only until I and the Demon Squad return.”

“Of course. I’ll just take care of this and then I’ll quietly step aside.”

It was a request I would never have accepted if it weren’t for the sword dance.

“Any other requests?”

“Let me follow you.”

Jin Ha-gun could sense the worries of the Geommu-geuk. They thought that something big would happen somewhere on both sides.

“Why are you following me?”

“I can’t lose Janelle.”

The leader of the Demonic Cult is following the Great Demon Lord to protect him? Who in the world of martial arts would believe this? Originally, he would have refused because of his pride, but his relationship with Geommu-geuk had already gone beyond that level. After all that he had gone through, he wasn’t foolish enough to show off his pride.

In any case, if the Sword Dance Theater feels this sense of crisis, then this situation is truly dangerous.

“Your right arm will be upset when he hears this.”

Geommugeuk said with a meaningful smile.

“If you knew who was coming, you would never do that.”

* * *

When Jin Ha-gun came down from the hill, Ju-gwol was waiting in the office.

“I will go with you and rescue you.”

Jin Ha-gun stopped him.

“I know the feelings of the Lord Danju, but I will lead the Demon Extermination Corps and go. They may use the Seongdonggyeo strategy, so shouldn’t the Lord Danju protect the Lord Dan?”

Ju-Gweol did not insist. He had to protect Ji-Dan, but if there was an enemy that was capable of kidnapping a famous general, the elite had to deal with it.

“Please have a safe trip.”

“Thank you.”

Before parting ways with the main force and leaving Jidan, the last place Jin Ha-gun stopped by was a temporary prison set up underground.

The security there was so tight that the word temporary seemed meaningless.

Jin Ha-gun briefly withdrew the warriors guarding around Seo Dae-ryong.

“Is something wrong?”

The reason Seo Dae-ryong was surprised was because Jin Ha-gun was holding his own long sword in his hand.

“Something has come up that requires me to leave Jidan urgently, leading the Demon Slayer Corps.”

Seo Dae-ryong’s expression hardened. How could there be a situation where he would suddenly have to leave his seat?

If the opponent had been a swordsman, Seo Dae-ryong would have made a joke like this.

―Ah! So you’re finally abandoning me like this! Thank you for everything… What thanks! I’m dying! Please save me!

But Seo Dae-ryong showed a dignified appearance to Jin Ha-gun.

“Please take care of it.”

Jin Ha-gun’s gaze deepened as he looked at Seo Dae-ryong.

The same goes for the sword dance and the dragon dance. They make you forget that you are dealing with a mine.

“Come closer.”

Jin Ha-gun released Seo Dae-ryong’s suppressed internal energy and handed him the long sword.

“Hide it somewhere where the guards of this place cannot see it.”

“Thank you.”

As he accepted his own path, Seo Dae-ryong’s heart began to pound. He had an ominous feeling that something big was going to happen. It really felt like death was fast approaching.

“There is a reason I am leaving you at a time like this.”

Jin Ha-gun said something surprising.

“I have sent support for you from Tongcheon-gak.”

“At Tongcheon-gak?”

He had come to Chongqing and reported the situation to Tongcheon Pavilion. That was why he was able to go to the special guest house.

It seems that Sima Ming sent support because he judged that there might have been a problem with the status of the Blood Heavenly Sword. At that time, Geomwu Geuk and Geomwoo Jin had not even arrived in Chungking.

“Support sent from Tongcheon Pavilion was waiting on the outskirts of Chongqing.”

As rumors spread that the Daejeongmun tragedy was the work of the Demonic Cult, the atmosphere in the martial arts world of Chungking was not good. That was why they were waiting on the outskirts.

“The young sect leader asked me to let them enter this place.”

Seo Dae-ryong could tell that he had accepted the request. Otherwise, he would not have even brought it up in the first place.

“My subordinates from the Demon Sect will remain and secretly accept them. Of course, they will not be members of the new sect, but will come in as outsiders who have requested help from the Demon Sect. Then, I hope to see you again safely.”

After saying those words, Jin Ha-gun left the place. Because the situation was so urgent, I couldn’t ask for more details.

Seo Dae-ryong was curious.

‘Who on earth did they send?’

* * *

Doo doo doo doo doo doo.

The carriages were running.

It was a large carriage used for transporting large loads. The carriage had only very small windows, so it was impossible to see what was loaded on the outside.

The carriage was loaded with unmanned vehicles.

It was impossible to tell which affiliation he belonged to because he was wearing a plain uniform, but his appearance was unforgettable once you saw him.

They all had fierce and scary faces, sharp eyes that showed they had been through a lot, and they were twice as big as an average person.

The carriages, packed to the brim, were racing toward the central business district.
