Episode 198 Sword that splits dimensions (6)
“Ha, you’re a high elf?”
-Do you know?
“I’ve heard of it.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded. I heard about it through various media, but I didn’t know exactly what it meant.
-High elves are priests who serve the elf gods and leaders of the elves.
“fuse? Leader?”
-There are only five high elves. Only when a high elf dies is the next high elf born.
“Does that mean that your destiny is determined from birth?”
-right. They are born with special abilities and unique status.
“I only knew that he was a little stronger than an elf.”
-little? Not just a little, but crazy strong. You could almost say that they are completely different from elves.
It was no exaggeration to say that high elves and elves were different races.
“How are they different?”
-They are each born with one special ability. Sword Palace Spirit Wisdom Abundance. Has absolute talent in one of the five abilities.
“Other things aside, what is the talent for abundance?”
-It is the ability to spread the energy of nature to the earth and enrich it. Even parched rice fields will soon become fertile if they receive that power.
“There won’t be a drought?”
-Among the High Elves, the High Elves of Abundance are the most protected and valued.
The High Elves of Bounty were the most important of the elves because they had the special ability to make flowers and trees bloom even in the desert.
“Who among them is in the Black Tree?”
-How would I know that? All I felt was the mana of nature.
“So should we hope that the guy there is abundance or wisdom?”
-okay. The other three are dangerous. Even you might not be able to win now.
“I can’t win?”
-If you can approach the palace, you have a chance of winning. But swords and spirits are difficult. To be honest, if you are a spirit, you will be infinitely lowered.
Darkness’s answer was coldly decisive.
“No way…”
-Yes. Spirit High Elves can summon the Spirit King.
“crazy!”
Baek Woo-jin cursed without even realizing it.
‘The Spirit King…’
The energy and presence of the Spirit King I met on Wind God’s Island was still vivid. That absolute power was not something he could handle right now.
-Because the location is different, you won’t be able to display all of the Spirit King’s abilities, but it will be a difficult fight.
“…That’s right.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded. No matter which Spirit King is summoned, a desperate situation will unfold. Not only myself, but many talented people will die.
“Then black?”
-I had met the high elf of the sword a long time ago. Her skills at the time were similar to your father’s now.
“Ah…”
Baek Woo-jin’s mouth was torn open. If you are at the same level as your father, you will never be able to win. My head was filled with thoughts of being screwed.
-Still, the good news is that at that time, the person was not old enough to return to nature. A lot of time has passed since then, so now a new sword high elf has been born. That means it’s not that bad.
“Ha, that’s a good thing.”
If the high elf that darkness spoke of is alive, no one will be able to win in the dark zone. Although it was a little bit, I felt relieved.
-What do you like? There is no guarantee that you are a high elf of the sword. If it were a spirit, you would just search around, right?
“You never know.”
Baek Woo-jin grunted, tapping his fingers on the table.
-Oh, there’s one more thing.
“What else is there?”
-High elves have two guardian elves. One elf each holding a sword and a bow.
“What are your skills?”
-From what I remember, it was around the late 7th grade to early 8th grade.
“It’s so fucking bad.”
Baek Woo-jin frowned. Really, nothing was easy.
“But… “Why isn’t such a strong guy moving?”
-This is my expectation, but I think I’m getting used to it.
“adaptation?”
-As I said, high elves are beings that embody pure nature. The fact that such a high elf does not move in a place covered with dark mana makes me think that he is adapting to the dark mana.
Although he said it was expected, the voice of darkness was filled with confidence. I think there is no other reason than that.
-Anyway, it won’t be an easy fight regardless of the high elves there. A being completely different from the high elves I saw may appear.
“It’s frustrating…”
– It would be better not only for you to prepare, but also to tell your brother and that old man named Changwang that it is dangerous.
“okay. “It’s not up to me to prepare on my own.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded. I think we need to reveal some information to Baek Yeon-hwi and Hwang Byeong-hoon.
“Go right now…”
-It’s dawn now! We had a battle just yesterday. Let me rest.
“Well, that’s right. Why are you being so considerate…”
-Sit down and watch the drama.
“….”
In the meantime, Darkness was thinking about the drama. People said he was dangerous, but he was really a great guy.
-You can’t watch dramas when you die. I need to look at everything I saved.
“Ha, I understand. okay.”
Baek Woo-jin turned on his tablet PC and muttered, “I’ll have to sell it to that scrap metal dealer later.”
**
As soon as Baek Woo-jin woke up the next morning, he and Baek Yeon-hwi went to see Hwang Byeong-hun. I adapted and told the story of what I heard from Heukam yesterday.
“Hmm, are you saying it’s that dangerous?”
“yes. “The quality and quantity of his mana was terrifying.”
Baek Woo-jin frowned and continued speaking.
“Recently we have had four big wins and taken four blocks back. If you don’t move in a situation where you’re being pushed like that, I can only think of you as gathering strength or adapting. “You have to hit him before he finishes adjusting.”
Hwang Byeong-hun and Baek Yeon-hwi’s faces darkened. It would be nice to have some information, but it was disappointing that there was none.
“Since there is no information, we must act quickly.”
“I think we should.”
“Large-scale support is scheduled to arrive in four weeks, but we have to pull it off somehow.”
“I think it would be best to reclaim the last 12 blocks of the outer dark zone before additional support arrives.”
The dark zone that protects the Black Tree is divided into two layers: an outer dark zone that acts as a castle wall and an inner dark zone located in the inner city.
Currently, there is only one 12-block outer dark zone left. If you purify that place, three internal dark zones remain.
If you purify the entire outer dark zone before additional support arrives, you can have a much better advantage in the subsequent fight.
“Let’s do that. “It hits right away in two weeks.”
Hwang Byeong-hun nodded at Baek Yeon-hwi’s suggestion.
“It’s early in the morning, but I guess I should call you right away.”
Hwang Byeong-hoon said he was contacting the outside world and told the two people to go. Baek Woo-jin and Baek Yeon-hwi said hello and left the commander’s building.
“Can you come out now?”
Karen, who was crouching in the corner of the building, approached me with a bright smile.
“Why are you here?”
“I came to practice with you.”
Karen tilted her head and asked why she was asking the obvious. Her eyes were full of enthusiasm to learn something today as well.
“Follow me.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded and left the building. Since I was planning on training in a place where the medical school was located anyway, the addition of Karen didn’t make much of a difference.
“huh?”
Baek Woo-jin was moving to the training ground with Karen and looked back. Baek Yeon-hwi was following as if it was a given.
“Why are you here?”
“The operation has changed, so I have some free time.”
“So you want to fool around?”
“What are you talking about?” “I want to see your training.”
“okay?”
Baek Woo-jin looked at Baek Yeon-hwi and laughed. Even this serious man seemed to have changed a lot.
“Then, brother, please take care of our kids.”
“what?
“There’s nothing to do anyway. Please.”
“Wow oppa. “It totally worked.”
Baek Woo-jin said that and went forward first. Karen giggled and followed Baek Woo-jin.
“Ha, really….”
Baek Yeon-hwi sighed as if it was absurd. However, his expression had a soft arc.
**
“Master.”
After morning training, Moon Joo-young and Hong Nam-ki, covered in sweat, approached Baek Woo-jin.
“How was your training?”
“He clearly points out where we are lacking. Not with words, but with a stick…”
“Hmm…”
Hong Nam-gi glanced at Baek Yeon-hwi standing behind him and his fingertips trembled. Moon Joo-young swallowed his saliva as if he agreed.
“Can I ask you a question?”
“say it.”
“Do you remember how you cheered us up when we first saw you here?”
“Of course I remember.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded. I thought I knew why Moon Joo-young and Hong Nam-gi asked such questions.
“At that time, I felt like I had grown, like I had overcome a wall. And when I fought with you yesterday, I felt like my skills had grown just as well.”
“I felt the same thing. But that wasn’t the feeling. Only at the moment of fighting with the master did my auror and sword skills improve. “Isn’t it your ability?”
“You’re quick-witted. that’s right.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded. There was no need to hide it from those who had already noticed.
“Are you serious?”
“If you and I fight together, everyone’s abilities will increase.”
“Huh….”
“Wow….”
Moon Joo-young and Hwang Nam-ki heard the answer they wanted, but were unable to continue speaking. I asked just in case, but I had no idea that he really had that ability.
“uh? But why can’t I feel anything?”
Muyounggaek approached and tilted his head. I participated in a battle yesterday, but I have never felt anything like that.
“It only works on swordsmen who follow me. “You’re not a prosecutor and you don’t listen to me.”
“yes? What are you saying! I am a person who is more loyal than anyone else. “You know it when you follow me to this shit field.”
“okay?”
Baek Woo-jin hummed and went behind Mu Young-gaek and patted his clothes.
Scream! Bang!
A golden teacup and bowl, chopsticks that seemed to be made of jade, and a seal fell out of Muyeonggaek’s clothes.
“Oh, did you listen to me and steal again?”
“I borrowed this for now…”
“That’s it. Give people back what they stole. “You can keep what you get from monsters or not.”
“Ugh, yeah….”
Moo Young-gaek lowered his head, and Moon Ju-young and Hong Nam-gi shook their heads as if they were pitiful.
“….”
Baek Yeon-hwi looked at Baek Woo-jin and his subordinates smiling with strange eyes.
‘I wish I had known about that guy a little sooner.’
At first, I thought Baek Woo-jin killed Baek Seon-ah, so I kept him in check and did not believe him. I thought someone more vicious than Baek Seong-hyeon had appeared.
But that wasn’t it.
After properly gathering information, it turns out that it was Baek Seong-hyeon who killed Baek Seon-ah, and Baek Woo-jin was just in danger of dying along with Baek Seon-ah.
Woojin had an incredibly kind and chivalrous spirit, even though he was from a white family.
‘He’s a fascinating guy.’
Baek Yeon-hwi smiled as she recalled the conversation she had with Baek Woo-jin.
When I said that I would negotiate with my father in a one-on-one duel without any help, I felt like I had been hit on the head.
Woojin had a large vessel that could not be compared to either himself or other people.
He was truly a man who did not fit into the Baek family.
‘But there’s no need for me to listen to him.’
Baek Woo-jin said there was no need for help, but Baek Yeon-hwi had no intention of listening to him.
I was planning to make it clear that if I eliminated the Dark Zone and the Black Tree here, I would return to the family and stand behind them.
“I hope your dreams come true.”
Baek Yeon-hwi smiled when she saw Baek Woo-jin punching Mu Young-gaek in the back of the head.
**
Two weeks later.
In front of District 12, which had been consumed by the black radish, countless monsters were dripping red blood from their eyes.
There were many different types, from low-level monsters such as goblins, orcs, and gnolls, to boss-level orc fighters, double-headed ogres, ogres, harpy queens, and lizardmen kings.
Dark elves and elite dark elves were not coming out of the dark zone.
Goooooh.
Hundreds of talented people were standing in a line less than 300 meters away from the monsters. The discipline rising from them was sharpened like the blade of a famous sword.
“It doesn’t matter how many enemies there are or how strong they are.”
Hwang Byeong-hun took a step and opened his mouth. He kicked the ground and swung his long spear. A tangible river bloomed from the window and spread like waves.
Kwaaaaaaaa!
The Lizardmen holding the square shields at the front were swept away by the strong waves and were swept away without even leaving behind a piece of bone.
“I will be at the front! “Just follow behind me!”
Hwang Byeong-hun shouted without even looking back, but his voice came out as clearly as if it had been struck in the eardrums.
Woooooo!
The sound of the horn, which increases fighting spirit, and Hwang Byeong-hoon’s devastating performance made the talented players run wild.
“Follow the commander!”
“let’s go!”
“Aaaah!”
The talented people rushed forward with a shout that felt like the heavens and earth were collapsing.
“We’re entering!”
“yes!”
The leaders, including Hwang Byeong-hoon and Baek Yeon-hwi, and the heads of the armed forces instantly broke down the monsters’ barrier and entered the dark zone.
“Ugh!”
“Get ready!”
The dark elves and elite dark elves inside the dark zone gritted their teeth and took out their respective weapons.
The Great Lord and the leaders blocked the Dark Elves, while Hwang Byeong-hun and Baek Yeon-hwi and other leaders attacked the elite Dark Elves.
“Darkan!”
Hwang Byeong-hun wrapped a huge sword around his spear and charged at Darkan, the second ranked elite dark elf.
“An old man who will die soon!”
Darkhan ran away, hurriedly moving his feet, but was soon caught up. Even in the dark zone, Hwang Byeong-Hoon could not be stopped.
“shit! “Everyone retreat!”
Darkhan, whose heart was almost pierced by Hwang Byeong-hun’s spear, fled to his own dimension without even looking back.
Sigh!
At that very moment, Baek Woo-jin, who had been waiting like a tiger with a low posture, jumped out. He cut through Darkhan’s dimension with darkness, creating a dimensional gap.
“Go!”
Baek Woo-jin nodded to Hwang Byeong-hun and threw himself into the dimensional gap.
“Hmm…”
Baek Woo-jin, who entered Darkhan’s dimension, frowned.
-That’s strange. It’s like a waiting attitude.
‘therefore.’
There was no wavering in Darkan’s eyes as he looked at himself from within the dimension.
“I thought it was you.”
“what?”
“I expected you to come here.”
When Darkan made a gesture, both dimensions split and two elves appeared.
It wasn’t a dark elf. He was a real elf with skin as white as Snow White. The elf on the right was holding a sword and the elf on the left was holding a bow.
-Those guys are guardian elves! My guess was right!
“Eyes that turn black and white….”
Baek Woo-jin bit his lip. The elves’ eyes were black and white, like the dark elves seen in the dark dream.
The guardian elves raised their weapons with a hideous aura around their bodies that made it difficult to believe they were elves.
“It might be difficult to finish it quickly…”
“Finish it quickly? That’s impossible. Even if you managed to get out of here, hell would have already unfolded outside.”
“hell?”
“The wait is over.”
The corners of Darkan’s mouth rose to the point where they reached his ears.
“He moved.”
