[ 3rd Hell Gate (3) ]
Sky It was stained red.
-Kwaaaaaah!
The monsters pouring out of Hell Gate soon filled the horizon. The area around the gate is already saturated. The overflowing monsters were pushing each other and spreading across the ground like cancer cells.
“It’s a number that can’t even be compared to the last time…”
Even veteran superhumans who prided themselves on having fought against all the monsters in the world couldn’t help but be heartbroken by that wave of evil.
‘When was the last time you felt fear?’
Instead of recalling a past event that he couldn’t even remember, Baek Chang-su tightly grasped his sword, the Blue Dragon and Woldo Blade, with trembling hands.
He spoke into the ear microphone.
“Still waiting.”
To the CEO’s soft command, all team leaders, from Team 1 to the recently created Team 33, responded, “I understand.”
Henan Province, China.
3rd Hellgate Area 8.
It was the largest battlefield among the twelve locations that occurred simultaneously around the world, and the battlefield where the Whitehouse Guild-Korea headquarters was located.
-Bubububububbung!
-Bubububububbung!
The military began attacking first against the pouring monsters.
The magic stone energy self-propelled anti-tank cannon spewed fire, and the previously installed anti-tank mines caused a series of explosions.
-Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
Flames exploded and acrid smoke rose. The leader of the running monsters collapsed. The monsters that were bombarded exploded and fell down bleeding. It was trampled and turned into mush by a monster running from behind.
Ugh….
Baek Chang-soo looks at the scene calmly and says.
“Still waiting.”
There was still quite a distance from the enemy’s leader, and the army was attacking with all its might.
Modern weapons that combined Earth’s science and technology from various magical dimensions were more powerful than the Allied Forces expected.
-Bubububububbung!
Most of the monsters running at the front could not withstand the fire and fell.
However, Hellgate constantly poured out monsters, and some of them had defense capabilities beyond imagination.
A monster that looks like a cross between a giant scorpion and a centipede approaches, enduring the fire. It raised its thick claws to block the concentrated fire and moved its dozens of feet to approach quickly.
Kyaaaaa!
Crrrrr….
Other monsters follow him, using him as a wall.
As if the timing was right, the number of gates also increased.
Jiiiiiiing-!
Jiiiiiiing-!
Jiiiiiiing-!
The red light in the sky became darker, and all the demons that came out of it cried out fiercely.
The military continued to attack without stopping, but the number of enemies approaching through the barrage increased as time went by.
Baek Chang-soo sensed that it was soon time for him to step forward.
“All teams ready for battle.”
The Dimensional Allied Forces created a five-layer defense line here.
WH Korea Headquarters played a role in blocking monsters approaching from the front lines.
Naturally, the most dangerous and damaging role.
That is why Baek Chang-soo stood here.
[CEO. After all, wouldn’t it be better for me to take the lead?]
Baek Chang-soo shook his head at Wang Gu-ho’s voice.
[no. I am in the lead today as planned.]
Last time I had no choice but to give in, but not now.
Baek Chang-su raised his Blue Dragon Blade and aimed it at the monster resembling a giant scorpion.
“Everyone be careful. If you get hurt, get back immediately and get treatment, and if you think it’s dangerous, call me. “Today… I fight with you.”
-Quaang!
Baek Chang-su kicked the ground.
He quickly reached the front of the giant scorpion that was charging at him from the front. The white wagang on his Blue Dragon and Moon Island stretched out.
The moment a pure white line was drawn in the air,
wow!
The scorpion split lengthwise and green blood burst out.
blow.
It was a very meaningless end for a monster that had endured the military’s heavy fire. The monsters that were hiding behind him all attacked Baek Chang-su.
“Whew…”
Baek Chang-su took a deep breath and swung his sword once towards the approaching enemy.
Sigh!
Dozens of demon beasts were split in half. Baek Chang-soo kicked the floor again without even checking the scene he had created.
Powerful monsters and demons were invading all over the defense line. Baek Chang-su planned to focus on intercepting only the strong ones.
Crackling, crackling!
A white electric current sprang from Baek Chang-soo’s entire body.
This was a phenomenon that occurred when the level of the White Thunder Divine Gong he had mastered exceeded 10 stars.
‘Cluck. Although it’s not as good as mine, you too were born with a boneless body given by heaven. I feel like I want to pass on the Heavenly Demon Divine Art, but I can’t… Let’s see. okay. If it’s the White Lightning Divine Art…’
The White Lightning Divine Art, one of the peerless magic arts that was sleeping in the repository of the Heavenly Demon Church, has found its owner.
‘Cluck. ‘This will be a perfect match for you, Changsu.’
Cheon Mu-geuk’s assurance was true.
The guidance of a teacher who raised the best person in the world was added to his natural bonelessness. Here are some elixirs that Daein gave me to eat whenever he was hungry.
And with his own hard work, Baek Chang-su became an expert in using martial arts within a year of learning martial arts.
It was incredible growth.
But his thirst was endless.
“Not yet!”
Sigh!
Blue Dragon and Woldo cut off the head of a monster resembling a dinosaur.
“This much!”
The demons that rushed in from all directions were torn apart by lightning at the same time.
“It’s not enough!”
As the battle continued, Baek Chang-su felt an extreme sense of elation. As I cut down enemies, dodged attacks, and counterattacked, I felt every single cell alive.
Then suddenly he stopped standing tall.
“…….”
Before we knew it, there were no enemies left around Baek Chang-soo. No demon or monster tried to approach him.
“Is it just this much?”
The strongest superman called Korea’s martial god gave a command to the battlefield.
“Are you saying that there is no one among you strong enough to deal with me?”
-Quaang!
He stepped forward and jumped deep into enemy territory. If the enemy doesn’t come, go find him yourself. To face stronger enemies and more dangerous situations.
‘More more more!’
At one time, Baek Chang-su thought of himself as a personalityless superman with no characteristics.
It was an illusion. He had amazing qualities.
‘The more I fight strong opponents, the stronger I become!’
After realizing that fact, Baek Chang-soo became obsessed with competing against the strong.
The desire to become strong was his instinct.
As you fight against a strong person, you gradually come to understand the opponent’s movements, and your body gradually evolves in order to beat the opponent.
‘Faster, harder, stronger!’
However, there are only a handful of monsters in the world that are strong enough for Baek Chang-soo to gain experience.
He was also the head of a guild and the father of a child.
I was not in a position where I could recklessly risk my life.
‘Just when I thought my growth was over…’
One day, Daein brought Cheon Mu-geuk to Baek Chang-soo, whose skills had stagnated for a while.
After that day, Baek Chang-soo was able to enter a new realm.
‘Cluck. ‘It looks like I’ve created another monster.’
Baek Chang-soo’s growth was so great that even Cheon Mu-geuk was surprised.
He was still getting stronger. Monsters and demons fell like leaves in the autumn wind as he passed by.
[Cheeky human! I will kill you!]
One of the high-ranking demons found Baek Chang-su and rushed towards him. It was a guy wielding a whip engulfed in flames.
Whirling!
Baek Chang-su, who dodged the attack, narrowed the gap with his opponent. The attacks were overwhelming for a while, but as time went by, I quickly got used to it.
[Whoops…!]
Baek Chang-su, who cut off the devil’s head, fell to the ground for a moment. He took a deep breath and looked up at the sky.
“Whew…”
The red sky was becoming increasingly colored with a darker blood color.
Sussssut…
No matter how many times I killed them, there was no end to the enemies. On the contrary, it seemed to increase further.
“If the vice president hadn’t warned me in advance… it would have been truly terrible.”
Suddenly, Baek Chang-soo remembered the day he first met Dae-in.
‘If I win, let me form a new team. I will personally recruit team members and perform tasks autonomously.’
At that time, I thought he was a very bold young man.
A newbie who has only been awakened for a few days would form his own team.
However, Daein proved that confidence with his skills in just a few hours.
After a few months, Team 7 boasted the highest performance in the guild, and he later became Vice President.
Suddenly, the landlord became an indispensable part of the guild.
And now…
“The whole world needs you.”
Even without paying attention to his surroundings, Baek Chang-soo knew that other people were whispering.
‘Why is the landlord the vice-leader and not the guild leader?’
‘CEO Baek Chang-soo? ‘What has he done so far?’
‘If the lessor dies, the property. I heard it will all be managed by the guild foundation….’
‘Tsk, tsk. In the end, I only did good things to others.’
When someone was illuminated, someone else was bound to be buried in the shadows.
Baek Chang-su had no complaints about being buried in the shadow of a great man.
In the first place, he had no great greed for power, fame, or money. The world that changed overnight made him a superman, and he just created a guild because he didn’t want to work for someone else.
Rather, I was worried that Daein would feel sorry for me because of such surrounding stories.
“Even if it doesn’t seem like it, the Vice President is a soft-hearted person.”
Not long ago, Daein called Baek Chang-soo and Baek Young-hee separately and told them a secret.
‘I actually don’t have any prophecy characteristics. The whole life penalty thing is a lie.’
‘what?’
‘…yes?’
Daein said he couldn’t tell me the details, but he explained that he wouldn’t die anyway because his life expectancy was shortened, and he also said he was sorry for unintentionally lying.
‘Hey, you bastard!’
After Baek Young-hee left the room after making a fuss, Dae-in spoke to Baek Chang-su separately.
‘CEO. ‘I plan to retire after this war.’
‘what? why?’
‘Now I’m going to live comfortably, playing and eating.’
Daein smiled brightly and said that he would enjoy a happy retirement life in the future.
Baek Chang-su did not say what was inside at that time.
But now
blah blah…!
Baek Chang-soo muttered softly as he looked at the huge ‘wound’ that had appeared in the sky.
“Do you think we will let you retire?”
Baek Chang-su created the White House Guild.
However, it was Daein who raised the guild to the best position in the world.
Therefore, Daein had a duty to take responsibility for this guild until the end.
Baek Chang-su laughed slightly.
“Isn’t there an order to retirement? “You young people, let’s do more active duty.”
Baek Chang-su did not want to hand over the guild that was his everything to anyone other than Daein.
Oh my gosh!
The huge ‘wound’ that had formed in the sky gradually split apart, and I could feel a huge energy inside it that I had never experienced before.
Creepy.
A presence that makes your body tremble.
A gigantic being slowly emerged from that ugly void.
Baek Chang-soo instinctively realized this.
That guy is the devil.
“…It’s scary.”
However, unlike his entire body shaking, a smile appeared on his face like a child receiving a birthday present.
It is his instinct to want to fight the strong.
Even if that being was someone who might take his life today, it didn’t matter.
[――!!]
The entire battlefield froze at the roar of the Demon King who appeared in the sky.
The Demon King had the appearance of a knight wearing black armor. Burning black flames covered the entire armor, and he held a large greatsword in his hand.
Huuuuung-!
When the Demon King lightly swung his great sword, black flames spread out and swept the area.
-Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
All places where the black flame passed were devastated. All of the monsters, demons, and human armies have disappeared.
One side of the defense line collapsed.
gulp.
Baek Chang-su swallowed his saliva and muttered as if making a promise to himself.
“When this war is over, I will hand over everything to you and retire. So…”
He tightly grasped the Blue Dragon Blade and unleashed his magic on the Demon King.
“Let’s meet again alive.”
