Wearing Helmet, Heading to the Ground (4)
It’s already been 30 days since Ryu Han-bin became a Beginner Hunter.
The Efen Plains was a place where various dungeons appeared every now and then including alpha dungeons which vomited monsters out into the fields.
That was why the city of Onpros had become the perfect city for hunters.
He continued to work as a part of Buckman’s Team and was commissioned two more times.
During that time, he managed to gather a lot of information and knowledge.
Like most nebby people, Buckman took care of everything even if Ryu Han-bin didn’t ask for it.
Instead of expensive inns, Buckman introduced him to public accommodations where people could stay for long periods of time.
Several people stayed in a single renovated building at the same time, and frankly, it couldn’t be called a pleasant sleep.
It was common for people to drink and raise their voices or fight with each other in the building.
However, there were also advantages.
After enough drinks, everyone would just keep on talking without prohibition.
He utilized the mischiefs of others as sources of information. Eavesdropping on conversations was enough to get quite a bit of miscellaneous knowledge about the Latna continent.
Above all else, getting information about the people from other worlds was a huge score.

Earthlings.
Also known as the people of another world, they were two-dimensional demons who tried to invade the Latna Continent and cull the top soldiers of Omphalos.
It was around 40 years ago when they first appeared in this world.
At that time, Latnains weren’t that wary of Earthlings yet.
They were just weak and pitiful beings in the beginning.
They were just poor strangers filled with fear after falling into an unknown world.
However, they quickly became strong.
It all thanks to their characteristics.
Much to the Latnains’ surprise, Earthlings were human beings yet they still possessed the ‘power of dragons.’
Dragon races in Latna, including Dragons themselves, directly absorbed the energy of the enemy they’ve slain which in turn increased their strength and capabilities.
The Dragons’ main composition was the Dragon Core.
Aliens, too, had the ability to kill other creatures and absorb their powers like a dragon.
They had the amazing ability to get ‘experience’ by simply killing enemies. They could raise their levels by gathering experience.
Even their efficiency was superior.
It was possible to raise their level dozens of times faster than a Dragon, and there was no limit or debuff to their ability.
Even if all they did was play and eat, they would never become weaker.
It maintained their status.
By raiding several dungeons on the Latna Continent, the aliens quickly became stronger.
Thanks to this, many people who suffered due to the monsters were saved.
People praised them as the heroes of this world.
But in the end, they showed their true colors.
A group of aliens who used to call themselves ‘Great Earth’ went rogue and kidnapped the Freleu Church’s saint!
They aimed to kill Freleu, the Goddess of the Wind.
Only the saint knew how to get to the goddess’ sanctuary, and they intended to use her to reach the Goddess.
Naturally, the Freleu Church went all out to save the saint.
But it wasn’t easy.
It was said that the shameless men who dared assassinate the Goddess were all extremely powerful, having levels above 70. The leader was even rumored to be level 100.
Huge amounts of blood were shed due to their battles, but that wasn’t enough to stop them.
The aliens soon successfully took their dirty feet into the sanctuary of the Goddess Freleu.
But that was it.
They made fun of the power of this world.
The true heroes of Latna, who received the trust of Freleu, came forward.
The strongest Swordsman on the continent, Baotolt the Sword King.
The one who has reached the limits of magic, Zenobia the Archmage.
The pinnacle of all Dark Swordsmen, Gahan the Terrible.
The ultimate Spiritist, Holrien the Transcendental.
The four absolute rulers of this world joined hands to defeat Great Earth as the Goddess willed.
The aliens were exterminated in a flash.
All of them vanished without leaving any bodies.
Since then, the trust of the six goddesses had been placed on the continent.
-The people of Earth are beings who have contracted with evil demons. Even if they seem gentle and good on the outside, deep down they are manipulative and malicious. They only desire blood and death!
A large-scale Earthling hunt took place.
Most of the aliens across the continent were killed.
Those who managed to survive hid in the dark.
Since then, the aliens only appeared rarely.
They were still powerful.
Their appearances weren’t different from the Latnains which made it hard to recognize them.
However, there were many fundamental differences between the two sides in their attitudes and common sense.
The Latnains focused on those factors as they searched for them and killed them.
They hunted them down for decades.
Now, it had become a natural custom in the Latna Continent for everyone to join forces whenever an alien appeared.

As he gathered the information together, Ryu Han-bin bit down on his lower lip.
“This is a very dangerous situation for me…”
In fact, the incident was huge. The Goddess even handed down the oracles herself, so it wasn’t surprising that the Latnains considered the Earthlings as demons from another world.
Could he meet the Goddess in that situation?
Even if he was lucky enough to meet a goddess, would she believe him?
‘But I can’t think of any other way to get my revenge on those demons…’
They were godlike beings. He couldn’t help but expect her to understand his sincerity.
“The Goddess Sanctuary, huh…”
The six goddesses existed in a place called the sanctuary, and the saints of each faction could visit the sanctuary.
There was clearly a way to meet a goddess.
Of course, if he approached them recklessly, he would be treated the same way the rogue group was treated.
‘What was the group’s name? Great Earth?’
Those punks who chose that name shouldn’t have tried something as crazy as killing a different world’s goddess.
With his chin up, Ryu Han-bin became lost in thought.
‘But how do I get to the sanctuary?’
