Return of the Sword God-Rank Civil Servant novel Chapter 295
There was no Iron Horse Gate in the Geumgangsan region.
That meant Su-ho only needed to clear the Gates unique to this area.
He took out a specialized map and marked the target points.
“Currently, there are around seven Gates in Geumgangsan.”
He didn’t need to clear them all.
The minor ones could be taken care of by other guilds once the Unification Purification Operation began.
“Out of those, I’ve marked two targets.”
Su-ho headed to the first of the two.
*
Roaaaar...
After some time riding, he arrived at a waterfall.
A single massive waterfall cascading between towering cliffs.
At the very top of the falls, Su-ho saw the flickering Gate portal.
“Finally, I get to see the Guryong Falls Gate.”
This place was called Guryong Falls.
One of the most famous spots in the Geumgangsan region.
It was also one of the two Gates Su-ho had marked as a priority.
The portal was massive.
Being located deep within Geumgangsan, it had long been left unattended, causing its mana to amplify.
Naturally, the resulting mana overflow had scattered monsters nearby.
“Kirrk?”
Speak of the devil—the monsters spawned from the Guryong Falls Gate began to appear one by one.
They were lizards.
Lizards hidden near the waterfall slowly revealed themselves.
“Kirrk.”
“Kirrk, kirrk.”
“Kirrkk?”
Their yellow reptilian eyes stared directly at Su-ho.
Clicking his tongue, Su-ho muttered, “You think I’ve got time to play with you?”
Without hesitation, he summoned a Shadow Spear and threw it up the cliff.
Shadow Movement is activated.
He could’ve used Wall Tiger Technique to scale the cliff, but why bother when there was an easier way?
Su-ho used Shadow Movement to instantly arrive at the top.
Before more pests could show up, he quickly stepped into the Gate.
You are entering the Gate.
Retrieving Gate information...
Waterfall of the Lizards
Nine participants.
Just as expected.
“Better than that Snake Lake.”
That one had a level 150 requirement.
So this should give more EXP.
Entering Waterfall of the Lizards...
Sssshhp!
His vision shifted with the system message.
Once the scenery reappeared, Su-ho found himself standing on top of a cliff.
Crassssh...
The sound of a waterfall crashing down.
But it wasn’t just one.
Crassssh...
Crassssh...
Crassssh...
Crassssh...
A deafening roar, multiplied by nine.
Literally.
Su-ho stood on a cliff with nine waterfalls pouring down in every direction.
At that moment...
A quest has been generated.
Waterfall of Lamentation
This place once belonged to the Imoogis.
But one day, lizards appeared and drove them out.
Now only lizards remain.
Kill the lizards and soothe the souls of the fallen Imoogis.
“There it is.”
The quest appeared.
Its name: Waterfall of Lamentation.
The goal: slay the unwelcome lizards and comfort the souls of the Imoogis who used to dwell here.
This would be easy.
Actually, more than ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ easy—this was a cakewalk.
There was nothing simpler than a full massacre.
Su-ho closed the quest window and glanced down below the falls.
Nine waterfalls.
Not just one or two—but nine.
Sweeping beneath the waterfalls wasn’t hard.
The problem was—they were all waterfalls, which meant water.
He could swim, but fighting monsters while swimming would be a stretch.
After a moment’s thought, Su-ho pulled out an item.
Gi Seung-hwan.
You have consumed Gi Seung-hwan.
You fully absorb the skill experience contained in Gi Seung-hwan.
Clicking his tongue, he muttered, “Tch, won’t get much out of this.”
No need to even draw a sword.
Just then, the lizards all rushed him in unison.
Same thing happened at all the other falls.
They charged Su-ho and the clones.
At that moment, Su-ho activated a synchronized skill across all nine bodies.
Heat Storm is activated.
Fwoooooosh!!
The skill: Heat Storm.
And then—
You have defeated a Four-Legged Waterfall Lizard.
You have defeated a Four-Legged Waterfall Lizard.
You have defeated a Four-Legged Waterfall Lizard.
You have defeated a Four-Legged Waterfall Lizard.
You have defeated a Four-Legged Waterfall Lizard.
You have defeated a Four-Legged Waterfall Lizard.
You have defeated a Four-Legged Waterfall Lizard.
You have defeated a Four-Legged Waterfall Lizard.
...
A flood of kill messages.
Of course.
A massacre was unfolding across nine different battlefronts.
The effect was overwhelming.
Just like back in Snake Lake, Heat Storm unleashed incredible power, burning the four-legged lizards to death.
So intense, it evaporated the waterfall spray and reduced corpses to ash.
Like an overlord, Su-ho and his clones walked forward as if on a stroll.
Then—
Shuaaak!
A tearing sound.
Su-ho twisted his head to dodge.
An arrow had flown straight at him.
“They’re finally here.”
He looked toward the source.
Lizardmen hidden with camouflage near cliffs and water edges were now aiming at him.
Same situation across the other battlefields.
