Standard of Reincarnation Chapter 60

The Legend of Reincarnation Episode 60

Vinchen found something in the grass.

As expected, they were much larger than normal goblins.

“These are the footprints of the mutant goblin.”

“Oh is that so?”

“Looking at the state of the grass, it seems like it’s been a while.”

“Can you figure that out?”

“Basically, monsters have the property of absorbing vitality.”

Compared to other grasses, grass trampled by monsters dies quickly.

The grass where the footprints were left was yellow and dry.

“It will take at least two days to become as dry as this.”

This is not learned through study, but learned through experience.

Yulian said huh and laughed.

-In the original tracing method, it is calculated inversely based on the amount of remaining moisture and the acidity of the soil. I’ll have to do the exact calculations to find out… but it’s probably about two days.

For Julian, it was a bit unfair.

– I’m asking just in case. Didn’t you calculate it?

‘Just a feeling.’

-ha.

It was because Vincen was so efficient that he just hit with his senses (?) rather than the results based on data collection and accurate analysis.

‘Don’t feel sorry for me.’

It seems to be just relying on the intuition to see with the eyes, but in reality it was not.

‘It’s something I’ve learned over the past 30 years.’

Vinchen continued to follow the footprints.

In Raven’s eyes, Vincen was almost an eccentric.

His eyes brightened even more.

“You really are a great guy. Thank you for teaching me a lot of know-how.”

I made a promise in my heart.

‘I must not forget this grace.’

Even small learning is learning.

he learned that

‘Is it really possible to track without tracking?’

It was strange that the traces were not cut off.

* * *

It was late at night.

Suddenly, Vinchen and Raven came to an unknown deep mountain range.

The mountain was rough and there were no human beings to be found.

Of course, there was no such thing as a clean accommodation.

“I’ll make sure to stand first during the night watch.”

“What are your shift hours?”

“Four hours later.”

“okay. I’ll sleep first.”

Raven nodded.

After taking out the sleeping bag, I fell into it within a second.

Vincen made a bonfire.

Magic powder was added to secure a safe zone of weak intensity.

Low-level monsters won’t be able to approach it.

‘If it’s this kind of mountain… I don’t know if there’s a 6th grade beast species living there.’

Yulian said again with a sigh.

-Class 6 beast breed mutated trolls have been spotted a few times.

‘Is that so?’

– To be honest, you already know, right?

‘I didn’t know.’

-Ayy, you can be honest with me.

‘You’re mentally connected to me.’

– So it makes no sense! I hit it with some sense, but it keeps getting this accurate! This is an open scam!

‘Can’t it be accurate?’

– It’s not like that. I have to be diligent. When the hell did you learn tracking?

Modern martial artists spend time honing their characteristics.

Of course, there are also characteristics related to tracking.

They focus on evolving tracking traits rather than studying them in depth.

That part was similar to modern unmanned people.

‘I’ve learned all about it.’

There were no guides specializing in tracking as there are now.

Back then, everyone should have studied the basics of tracking.

-At that time, people said that a day was about 48 hours long?

‘Though I’ve never thought of that before.’

Come to think of it,

‘I guess I didn’t get much sleep.’

-It’s hard to learn martial arts, but how much sleep do you have to sleep to learn miscellaneous skills?

One more thing came to mind.

Looking back, there were other things that were different then and now.

‘That’s why it seems that the average life span was much shorter than now.’

Life expectancy was much shorter, and there were many premature deaths.

Looking back, it seemed that it was a barbaric and ignorant era, as Vincen said.

At that time, everyone lived like that, so I didn’t feel anything strange.

-oh my god.

‘But once I survived, it would reach the extreme.’

So in the past, there were many poles and poles.

succeed or die.

The middle layer was not as thick as it is now.

-Brother, brother, please don’t do that. save that body Got it?

‘I’ll think about it.’

-We must obtain heavenly fruit and recover our body. Got it?

Vinchen kicked and laughed.

Yulian’s urgent feelings reached this point.

Some time passed.

-It’s been exactly 4 hours…

“Now it’s my turn!”

– Oh, what a surprise!

Raven woke up exactly without notice.

He stood in front of Vinchen in a machine-like manner, and Vinchen slipped into his sleeping bag.

By the time the morning sun rose and began to light up the surroundings.

Vinchen and Raven started chasing the mutant goblin again.

Vincen found the teeth marks of the mutated goblin carved into the wood.

“It seems to have narrowed the distance quite a bit.”

Day 3 of tracking.

Vinchen steadily closed the distance with the mutated goblin.

Without tracking characteristics, the direction was set based on the carcasses of wild animals around the footprints and defecation traces, and they followed in the right direction.

“Did you find out anything else?”

“Now he is hungry.”

You can tell by looking at the teeth marks.

When the mutant goblin is hungry, it bites trees and even eats insects that live inside the bark.

It leaves marks in the process.

“A hungry mutant goblin becomes ferocious. Especially since he has the Power of Predation.”

“What does that mean for us?”

Vinchen pointed to a place with his finger.

There were traces of a shape slightly different from the teeth marks of the mutant goblin.

“What is this?”

“The traces left by the beast species in the form of quadrupeds.”

I was about to say ‘It’s supposed to be’, but Yulian interrupted.

-There is a high probability that it is Cheongan Baekho.

Vinchen gave a clue that it was a ‘four-legged beast’, and based on that, Julian deduced.

– Tree species. The height of the imprint, the size of the claw, and the depth of the wound. And the toenails of the Cheongan white tiger said it had a unique smell.

However, having read the book, I couldn’t tell exactly what it smelled like.

Vincen smelled it.

“It’s the Cheongan White Tiger.”

“A white tiger in Cheongan?”

“This is where the unique scent of Cheongan Baekho comes from. The smell of the beast.”

“…I can feel that too.”

Raven got closer and sniffed it, but didn’t notice much of it.

Vinchen shrugged.

“Try to activate your sense of smell by directing mana toward your nose.”

“I can’t do that.”

“Is it very basic?”

Vinchen clicked his tongue inwardly.

‘Tsk. The evil sea of image theory. I don’t know how to do such a basic thing.’

On the other hand, Raven was greatly stimulated.

‘Starting today, I’m also practicing!’

Vincent looked around.

“Looking at the traces, the Cheongan White Tiger and the Mutant Goblin passed this place at about the same time. The Cheongan White Tiger is a guy who thinks of goblins as his prey.”

“Are you saying that the white tiger of Cheongan is chasing the goblin?”

“But the traces are too calm.”

far away.

There was a poop that was presumed to be packed by a goblin.

Vinchen poked the poop with a branch.

“It hasn’t hardened yet.”

Raven frowned.

It smelled like shit.

“If the Cheongan White Tiger was chasing the goblins as prey, there should be traces of digging up this shit.”

You must have sniffed it.

However, the condition was very good.

Raven fell in love with Vinchen’s words before she knew it.

“On the other hand, the mutated goblin doesn’t seem to consider the blue tiger as prey either.”

“How did you come to that conclusion?”

“You saw the tracks of wild animals as you passed by.”

There were many dead bodies.

These were the animals killed by the mutant goblin.

“I didn’t eat tiger-type animals.”

It was unique.

Raven admired again.

“Awesome you.”

I have to admit, honestly.

“I saw the same thing, but I didn’t know anything.”

“It’s strange that he didn’t eat the tiger form even though he was extremely hungry.”

Vinchen walked a little further, following the footprints.

“If you compare their speeds, they should have met at this point.”

After passing through the forest, it was a vast field of reeds.

There was a field of reeds much taller than a person.

“But there is no sign of a fight at all.”

“I know.”

Raven also pointed out the key point.

“Isn’t the situation very contrived and strange?”

“okay.”

Vincen laughed.

“Do I look like a professional tracker to you?”

“huh.”

However, Vincen was not an expert tracker.

He thought he had poor skills compared to a ‘professional guide’.

Vincen was a bit taken aback by Raven’s stern reply, but he continued.

“It can’t be. I’m not a professional tracker. But as if I were an expert tracker, I could read every trace. As if someone had left a trace on purpose.”

to make it easier to follow.

All traces were laid out in a way that was easy to understand.

“It’s strange that the white tiger of Cheongan, which thinks of goblins as food, didn’t attack the mutated goblins.”

Also

, “It is strange that there is suddenly a field of reeds in such a deep forest where the trees grow tall.”

“Why is that strange?”

“That’s…”

In fact, even Vincen couldn’t figure out the exact reason.

I felt a strange sense of incongruity through my intuition.

-You don’t know why it’s strange?

Julian explained further.

– Reeds grow in moist and sunny places. This is an environment where reeds cannot form colonies like this.
