Chapter 502 The 6th Catastrophe (3)
Cataclysm.
There are three ways monsters can appear in those chaotic times.
The first is Monster Wave.
It is a phenomenon in which the space of the dimension is distorted and monsters are constantly rushing in.
The second is foreshadowing.
As in the case of the last anthill incident, precursors are occurring all over the world even at moments when people are not aware of it.
Starting from the cataclysm, they turned to attack all at once.
They left their territory and attacked humans, and even if a monster wave did not occur, the situation of being attacked by many was a foreshadowing.
last third.
People called it blood rain.
It is similar to a monster wave, but unlike the way it is pushed through the dimensional passage, a small number of monsters appear like showers in a specific area.
For example, when Blood Rain occurred in Seoul.
If Monster Wave started in Seongdong-gu and spread throughout Seoul, Blood Rain was a disaster full of variables where monsters would appear anywhere in a specific area.
of course.
The monsters that appear as Blood Rain are few.
However, it was also the phenomenon that caused the most casualties because it rendered the defense system meaningless.
kyaaak!
Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Incheon city center.
Monsters appeared.
A grade A monster, an ogre, scanned the surroundings with ferocious eyes, and destroyed buildings in the way with a huge club.
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
The building collapsed.
The outer walls could not withstand the strong strength, and the monsters quickly destroyed the city along the way as if they were leaving footprints.
However, there was no human trace anywhere.
While sniffing his sensitive sense of smell, he showed his will to kill, but the monsters couldn’t find humans and showed signs of anger.
Kyaaaaaaagh!
Screaming monsters.
they ran amok
The ogre, which was wandering around looking for humans, instantly expressed a powerful murderous intent.
kyaaak!
puck!
hit something with a stick
The wind tore away and the battered creature exploded, and the ogre, apparently not satisfied with that, started attacking nearby creatures.
It was an appalling sight.
It would have been a natural sight if the target the ogre was attacking were humans, but shockingly, the ogre was attacking the same monster.
Kwong Kwong Kwong!
kyaaak!
Other monsters fought against the ogres.
Even if the head exploded and the limbs were torn, the ogre’s body was bitten, and in the meantime, other monsters attacked each other.
The monsters’ eyes were stained red.
As if his eyes, which were originally glistening with murderous intent, had completely lost their taste, he recognized all creatures he encountered as enemies.
co-destruction.
killed and killed each other.
The ogre, which had been biting its own kind, raised its head at the sight of people passing by.
Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
The eyes were stained red.
The owner of a popular chuck.
He was also of the same race.
However, in the eyes of the ogre, the kin looked like humans, their prey.
so that.
kyaaak!
thump thump!
The ogres rushed like crazy to tear humans to shreds.

Second line of defense.
On top of the castle wall, Kang Min-ho showed a look of surprise.
“… Incredible.”
far away
Monsters were seen attacking each other.
If you turn your head, you can see the wall, but they didn’t notice the existence of the ‘wall’ even after looking at this place.
It was the effect of truth.
Kim Jun-hyeok said calmly.
“It is a method that creates illusions. As long as you don’t leave the realm of Jinbeop, the less intelligent monsters will recognize each other as humans and won’t be able to confirm the location of this place.”
last 3 months.
Kim Jun-hyeok clung to the truth.
It was a really strange power.
After confirming the effectiveness of the method, Kim Jun-hyeok immersed himself in the method, even cutting down on his sleep in order to sharpen his own weapon.
The sight in front of my eyes was the result.
Artifacts were placed according to the illusion formation, and the monsters fell into the illusion without even realizing it.
In fact, Kim Jun-hyeok’s power alone could not fully express the effect of the Jinbeop.
So it was necessary to prepare.
The city was redeployed.
The city was renovated to be advantageous to the battle method, and mana stones were placed throughout to strengthen it.
‘Thanks to staying up all night preparing, the entire city center of Incheon has become a trap that will drive the monsters into despair. As long as the illusion formation is in operation, the monsters will not be able to pinpoint the exact location of the shelter. Primarily, Roman Dmitri-sama guards the outer wall, and secondarily, the second line of defense uses formation to prevent monsters from approaching the shelter, and finally, Lee Tae-seong and other subordinates take care of the monsters inside. For the past three months, we have been training how to defend against enemies with the strength of Incheon alone.’
It was the result of hard work.
In particular, Jinbeop was greatly helped by civilians.
Kim Jun-hyeok received support from the citizens of Incheon, and in the process of rearranging the building, civilians offered to help with open arms.
Thanks to that, I was able to get the job done with ease.
In a short time of 3 months, it succeeded in transforming Incheon, which was nothing, into a trap.
but.
It was too early to be relieved.
The preparations so far were only the minimum conditions against the catastrophe, but it could not be seen that all of this crisis was resolved.
Joonhyuk Kim said.
“The truth is not omnipotent. If there are monsters that break through the illusion formation and reach the second line of defense, there is no other way than to deal with them directly. As you know, Roman Dmitri is dealing with enemies on a scale we couldn’t even imagine on the Outer Wall. If even the internal situation holds Roman Dmitri’s ankles, Incheon’s survival is virtually impossible.”
“Do not worry.”
Kang Min-ho stepped out.
timely.
A few monsters broke through the illusion formation and came out.
Covered in blood from biting their own people, they erupted in murderous intent upon discovering the existence of a second line of defense.
kyaaak!
Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Running monsters.
Kang Min-ho drew his sword.
“I wasn’t just playing around, either.”
* * *
3 months ago.
Roman Dmitri called Kang Min-ho.
And gave him a sword as a gift and told him a new future.
“In the future catastrophe, I will use you as the last gateway to defend Incheon.”
“… me?”
It was an embarrassing answer.
Kang Min-ho became self-objectified.
It achieved rapid growth from E grade to B grade, but it was not at the level of taking the last gateway.
Roman Dmitry also.
agreed to that fact.
Kang Min-ho clearly lacked a lot.
but.
‘The important thing is your will to the mission you have been given. Unlike other people, Kang Min-ho has a firm will to protect the people of the shelter. So that my daughter is safe. Rather than fighting on the frontline like me, Kang Min-ho is a more appropriate person to protect the rear where my daughter is.’
daughter’s presence.
It was Kang Min-ho’s identity.
It is enough to teach the lack of strength.
As in the previous life, if there is a desire to become strong, anyone can become strong by Roman Dmitri’s side.
In fact, at first, I thought of the ghost magic trick that way.
As if it made Kevin, who was nothing, stronger in a short period of time, if there was a will, the ghost magic was an appropriate method.
at the end of trouble.
Roman Dmitry concluded.
‘Ghost magic is not appropriate.’
former Kevin.
He risked his life to become stronger.
Even if he died, he expressed his strong will to dedicate his life to becoming stronger.
Kang Min-ho was different.
he wanted to live
His will to survive and stay by his daughter’s side is just as desperate as Kevin’s, but the essential part is completely different.
attitude towards life. That it doesn’t matter if you die and that you shouldn’t die.
Due to the completely different difference, it was concluded that Kang Min-ho could not be taught Ghost Magic.
Then there was another way.
‘Guardian gate.’
A long time ago.
The era before Baek Joong-hyeok existed.
There was a guardian gate leading to one-man victory in the political faction.
Whenever the wicked revealed their vicious intentions to conquer Murim, they suddenly appeared in the world and saved the world from the wicked.
An existence that was recorded in old history. So, Baek Joong-hyeok looked into the Guardian Gate and found out that it was definitely a great martial art, but it was nothing compared to the Heavenly Demon’s Art.
however.
Why didn’t the guardian gate exist at the same time as Baek Jung-hyeok?
The successor of Suhomun, who had never been defeated against the wicked, faced death at the hands of the rightists who were jealous of his reputation.
Since then, martial arts, which had been discontinued, entered the library of the Demonic Cult, and Baek Jung-hyeok had memories of experiencing the ‘Martial Arts of the Guardian Gate’ in the process of polishing the Heavenly Demon Art.
The essence of the guardian gate.
I didn’t like it that much.
That’s why it suited Kang Min-ho even more.
said Roman Dmitry.
“I will teach you the martial arts of the guardian gate.”
* * *
Under the ramparts.
The monsters ran.
The ogre’s muscles swelled greatly, and he struck the castle wall with his club.
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
It was a huge shock.
Thanks to the magic protection, the walls didn’t collapse, but the monsters that arrived later also crashed into the walls.
The Troll’s head was shattered and blood splattered.
However, he quickly recovered with his unique regenerative power, and showed his tenacity to break down the wall by continuously crashing into it.
Kim Jun-hyeok shouted.
“Attack the monsters!”
pod.
Papa papapat.
above the castle wall.
arrows were fired
It was an attack by archers belonging to Incheon, and arrows filled with magic rained down like rain and penetrated the monster’s skin.
kyaaak!
Kyaaaaaagh!
The monsters screamed.
They desperately tried to climb the wall somehow, but Kim Jun-hyeok noticed their movements and quickly gave orders.
Magic exploded on the monster’s face.
Among the hunters belonging to Incheon, there were occupations with various skills such as archers and wizards, and the long-distance hunters were appropriately used to block the enemy.
beyond the truth.
Monsters continued to appear.
I dealt with quite a few monsters as a welcome, but since there were so many absolute numbers, I couldn’t handle them all.
at last.
The walls had to be breached.
The werewolf jumped up the castle wall at once with great jumping power, but Kim Jun-hyeok was not worried about its existence.
Didn’t Kang Min-ho tell you?
believe in yourself
The moment Werewolf landed on the wall, Kang Min-ho blew off his arm.
Flash.
Yay Yay Yay!
Werewolf screamed.
He rushed at him with ferociously shiny eyes, and Kang Min-ho calmly watched the werewolf.
The opponent is an A-rank monster.
Kang Min-ho, who had just secured the B-class qualification, was an opponent he could never defeat, but in the past three months, he didn’t feel nervous at all.
Guardian gate’s martial arts.
It was great.
The martial arts specialized in defensive herbivore did not allow a single attack even in the sparring with Lee Tae-seong.
blast furnace.
There was no reason to be afraid.
Werewolf’s attack was received head-on.
Caang!
Kaka Kaka Kakang!
The attack came in with a wild push.
Kang Min-ho calmly blocked Werewolf’s attack and tore off the opponent’s body with Suhomun’s signature counterattack.
It was the reason Roman Dmitri didn’t like it.
Roman Dmitri wants to take the initiative and press down the opponent first, but the guardian gate is specialized in protecting and counterattacking.
at the end of such a battle.
Pooh!
Werewolf collapsed, spurting blood.
Kang Min-ho didn’t stop with that, and took care of all the monsters that climbed up the wall.
‘The second line of defense is solid.’
It was Kim Jun-hyeok’s idea.
Jinbeop and Kang Minho.
and the presence of walls.
If the hunters with repair skills secured the durability of the wall, it seemed that they would be able to block the attacks of the monsters.
The preparations so far have not been in vain.
In the worst situation where the monster wave and blood rain attacked at the same time, the second line of defense quickly cleared the attacking monsters.
Incheon.
You will be able to survive.
In just one battle, soldiers in Incheon, including Kim Jun-hyeok, showed hopeful expressions.
It was then.
I was in a situation where I was almost arranging the monsters that had escaped from the camp, but a crack suddenly appeared in the air.
People were perplexed.
The crack meant the appearance of monsters.
The people who were preparing to greet the monsters witnessed an absurd sight.
pod.
was a human
Led by him, many humans fluttered their white wings and landed on the wall.
“Baekil came to help Incheon! Everyone! Now you can rest assured!”
identity of the leader.
It was Park Min-woo.
Conjuring his magic, he looked down at the bottom of the castle wall, and there he could only see piles of corpses.
Moment.
Park Min-woo’s expression was stained with embarrassment.
This was different from the plan.
I heard that Incheon was attacked, obviously passing Roman Dmitri.
But the corpses of monsters piled up with normal people.
“… Are you safer than you think?”
Park Min-woo smiled shyly.
