Breakers Chapter 114:
Chapter 114 - Chapter 18: Auction #6
There were other people who were surprised by the explosions and stood up . The staff of the auction house tried to calm people down, but it wasn’t enough .
"Dear customers! Calm down—”
The head of an auction house employee, who was shouting loudly, was destroyed . A barbarian warrior had murdered the employee with a huge hammer-like fist . Someone screamed, and there was an explosion from the auction house . As the auction house shook, flames were spreading everywhere .
In mere seconds, the auction house had become a mess . People were rushing around in the middle of the explosion, and the indiscriminate killing committed by the barbarians added to the confusion . The security personnel around the auction house couldn’t calm down the situation alone .
"Prince!”
Carack exclaimed hurriedly . Instead of responding to his call, In-gong opened the mini-map and searched it .
The explosion had first occurred outside . Maybe it wasn’t just the auction house but all of Takar that was attacked . No, it was reasonable to think so . Otherwise, the current situation couldn’t be explained .
‘A small strike?’
If a large number of barbarians had crossed the Eastern Limit Line, people would have already known about it already . It was obvious that they had to break up into small units in order to infiltrate the city .
In-gong saw that all the barbarian warriors were marked red on the mini-map . In-gong’s allies were blue, while the auction house employees and general customers were grey .
In-gong’s gaze turned toward the brightest red dot . Paratus, the younger brother of the barbarian king Karatus and probably the mastermind of this incident, was heading towards the stage with a ferocious smile on his face .
In-gong sensed it intuitively . The purpose of this incident was evidently the auction items .
However, what type of item would make him do such a bold thing?
The ruler of Takar and the owner of the auction house, Vulcanus, was a tough person . He was sure to retaliate in some way .
In-gong couldn’t think about it for long . The situation was desperate, but it was also due to the new blue dot that appeared on the mini-map .
The blue dot had appeared far away from In-gong’s party and was moving quickly towards the stage . In-gong shifted his gaze hurriedly . Apart from his group, there was only one person in Takar who would be recognized as In-gong’s ally .
‘Nayatra!’
Nayatra was dressed in a black china dress that revealed her thighs . He was drawn back into his memories for a moment but quickly snapped out of it . Nayatra appeared deeply confused by the current situation .
"Prince!”
Carack shouted again . In-gong delayed no longer . He opened his inventory and armed himself .
In-gong equipped White Eagle on his left arm and Earth Quaker on his right arm, while Night Watch was placed around his neck and shoulders .
Earth Quaker had been tuned just before coming to the auction site, so it sparked with a red and yellow glow as it roared . In-gong glanced toward Caitlin .
"Noona, this is a request . ”
Instead of asking what he was talking about, Caitlin wound up her long dress . After freeing both legs, a blue aura erupted around her like flames .
Felicia asked in a confused voice,
“Shutra?”
"The barbarians of the Eastern Limit Line!”
In-gong shouted and ran towards the stage . He heard Felicia’s voice again from behind him, but the urgent thing was Nayatra .
As always, time flowed equally as it seemed both fast and slow . Paratus, who had jumped on the stage while In-gong was arming himself, killed the auctioneer in one blow . He threw a scroll that caused a huge explosion and headed behind the stage .
Nayatra moved towards the back of the stage as well . As expected, she was tracking Paratus from a distance .
In-gong jumped onto the stage and threw himself through the flames . At the back of the stage, the screams of the employees could be heard in succession .
“Paratus!”
In-gong didn’t know about the situation inside, so he shouted loudly several times . As soon as he arrived at the place where the auction items were stored, Paratus turned toward In-gong .
As expected, the auction house employees were almost all dead . Paratus had grabbed the neck of an orc security officer and was about to kill him .
Paratus glared at In-gong . Instead of paying attention to Paratus, In-gong looked at the mini-map and the area in front of him simultaneously . Nayatra could no longer be seen on the mini-map as she had gone into stealth . However, the pile of auction items couldn’t escape In-gong’s eyes .
‘The Dragon King’s Golden Helmet!’
He was able to recognize it at a glance because it was special among the A rank items .
As the name suggested, it was a golden helmet carved in the form of a dragon’s head .
The Dragon King’s Golden Helmet was a symbol of King Taratos, the legendary barbarian king .
He could now understand why Paratus was so reckless .
For those who didn’t know the history, it was just a good golden helmet . However, it was different for the barbarians . It was an item that could strengthen the legitimacy of the kingship and elicit absolute support from the tribes .
Paratus squeezed his right hand and killed the orc security officer . Simultaenously, In-gong turned off the mini-map .
“Green Wind!”
White Eagle split into two and flew toward Paratus . While Paratus was surprised by White Eagle and Black Eagle that were emitting a green light, In-gong sprang forwad .
Kwang!
In an instant, In-gong narrowed down his distance toward Paratus and ran past him instead of attacking . Paratus panicked, but White Eagle and Black Eagle acted under Green Wind and blocked Paratus’ view .
In-gong arrived at the place where the auction items were piled up and reached out to the glass box containing the golden helmet . He had felt the anti-theft spell when he entered the auction house, but he ignored it . In-gong instantly conquered the spell and put the item in his inventory .
Paratus ignored White Eagle and Black Eagle and sprang toward In-gong . However, Green Wind blocked Paratus once again . White Eagle and Black Eagle created a green barrier that blocked Paratus’ way .
In-gong didn’t miss the gap created . He reached for the auction items piled up with the golden helmet . It was obvious that all the items would be destroyed when they fought here, and as expected, there were items he knew Nayatra was targeting .
‘Nayatra’s secondary occupation is a thief!’
Although she had been called Zephyr’s knight, Nayatra’s expertise wasn’t fighting but in infiltration and information gathering .
Due to this, In-gong had Nayatra perform more information gathering missions, instead of **** missions in Knight Saga .
Additionally, Nayatra’s ability as a thief shone every time .
He had used her skills in Knight Saga without thinking, but where had Nayatra learnt her thief skills? Was she an assassin and thief before she became a slave?
If had she appeared at the auction to steal one of the items, maybe she had been caught and turned into a slave .
It was just a guess, but everything fit .
Then as if to prove In-gong’s reasoning, he heard a swallowed moan . She was astonished to see the auction items disappearing as soon as In-gong’s hands reached for them .
"You bastard!"
‘Master!’
Paratus and Green Wind exclaimed . Instead of aiming for Paratus, In-gong triggered Night Watch’s Blink and moved to Nayatra . Nayatra turned her head at the blue fog, but In-gong had already grabbed her arm .
‘Master!’
Green Wind shouted again . It seemed like she had reached the limit of stopping Paratus .
“Carack!”
In-gong pulled Nayatra and used Call on Carack . Carack appeared with whirling eyes and In-gong said quickly,
"Take Nayatra and leave here!”
"W-wait a minute!"
Nayatra cried out in a confused voice . Carack grasped the situation immediately and looked up at the ceiling with a surprised expression .
“Heok! Look at that!”
It was a tense and desperate situation, so Nayatra and Paratus reflexively looked up at the ceiling .
Just then, Carack moved . He hit the back of Nayatra’s neck .
“Keok?”
Nayatra leaned forward with a pained moan . It was a situation where he had failed to stun her with a blow, but Carack didn’t care . Nayatra wasn’t knocked out, but she was defenseless . Carack carried her onto his shoulders and started running .
Both In-gong and Paratus were surprised by what happened in front of them, but it was only for a moment .
Today was the first time Paratus had seen Nayatra . Although unfamiliar things were popping up in succession, this was irrelevant to Paratus . The only thing that mattered to Paratus right now was the Dragon King’s Golden Helmet .
In-gong regained his spirit as well . The process was quite violent, but he was able to secure Nayatra . He would chat with her later .
‘Master!’
Green Wind called to In-gong once again . Her call felt somewhat sad . This time, In-gong produced white aura and green magic power simultaneously .
Paratus was in a frenzy because he couldn’t get the golden helmet . Even if In-gong had come to defend Evian, he couldn’t let the golden helmet pass into the hands of the barbarians .
White Eagle and Black Eagle, which had been desperately interfering with Paratus, returned to In-gong’s side . Earth Quaker responded to the dragon style by growling angrily as the scales darkened .
Paratus then triggered an explosive aura of vengefulness . In-gong felt the creepy roar of a lion, but he didn’t turn his gaze . He formed a fist and activated Dragon Blood .
Paratus, the brother of the barbarian king—he was considered a strong warrior even among the barbarians .
In-gong took a deep breath .
Then the battle began .
