Chapter 162. SMARION FROCH (1)
Wavelength Tracking Synchronous Spatial Leap Red Owl is not affected by Chaos Particles unlike the Movement Gate.
In the manual, it was written that the space-time device built into the red owl is because it passes through the intangible ‘wavelength’ that exists in the world, unlike the instantaneous movement through the magic of the existing movement gateway.
“I’ve seen previous failed works break down during space jumps… but it’s hard to describe the abilities of Miss Quaul and Miss Valeria. Master.”
I had already seen Ziffle use the space-time device in the Gaipa Islands, but comparing the Red Owl to Ziffle’s technology at the time was in itself rude.
“It feels like entering a whole new world after 2 years and 6 months.”
boo woo-.
A gloomy ghost wail was heard from all directions in the forest surrounding the ghost castle.
The coordinates set in the red owl were the campsite of the fellow ghosts and members. I was able to realize the seriousness of the situation once more just by giving up Guigoksaeseong, the headquarters of the Ghost Corps, and forming a campsite.
As the red owl descended slowly, everyone in the camp drew attention.
It was the first time everyone had seen a red owl in action.
However, the most surprising thing was the fact that Jin was among the Red Owl’s passengers.
“Jin-kyung…!”
“You’re back, Jin!”
Ghost squad members raised a salute and colleagues shouted his name and ran.
Quikantel Alyssa Kujan Berris Julian Enya Lata Faye Amela. And about 30% of the members of the Black Kings and more than 80% of the ghost crew.
Tikan was literally concentrating on Smarion, leaving only the bare minimum power for defense.
All of them were haggard from the operation that had been going on for over three months.
‘A terrifyingly thick chaos covers the whole forest of Guigoksaeseong Castle.
Even if I didn’t want to be conscious, the nerves in my whole body were on edge.
Others also vaguely felt that the chaos of Smarion encroaching on Gugoksaeseong was enormous, but it was far short of the level Jin recognized.
It’s because they don’t have the same sense as Jin.
Such a gigantic aura can only be properly recognized by at least the King of the Myeongwang clan.
For a while, words asking each other’s regards were exchanged. However, as the situation is the situation, it quickly changed to a conversation about the situation.
“As soon as you return, you will put a heavy burden on your lord. sorry.”
Lata said in a somber voice.
-The reason I showed this place to my lord first is because this is currently the biggest and only problem with the Ghost Corps. It’s embarrassing, but you could also say that this seal threatens the existence of the Ghost Squad.
From the moment he first decided to serve Jin as his lord, he felt sorry for sharing the risk of ‘Smarion Proch’.
“Lord Lata, don’t talk like that. From the moment Kyung became our ally, this has been everyone’s problem. Rather, it is something I should be sorry for leaving my seat so that the situation has reached this point.”
As Lata lowered her head, Amela came to Jin’s side.
“My cutie said we had to solve it before the lord came, so we went through a lot of trouble. So everyone tried their best, but we couldn’t help it…”
Fortunately, the chaos of Amela and Lata Fay did not resonate with the energy of the ghost.
I took out the chaos purifier that Jin had brought with me.
“This is a chaos purifier made by the Myungwang brothers. I brought it just in case, but I think Lord Lata and Fay’s father aren’t in a state where they can do anything with this.”
The chaos purifier was only effective against the infected before complete encroachment and body transformation took place.
Smarion had already deviated from the standard from the time it was sealed, and even if it wasn’t, the size of the chaos itself was too huge.
Therefore, purification was impossible, so the only way to solve the situation was subjugation.
“…jin. If it bothers you that you have to kill me and my brother’s father. You don’t have to. The reason we were waiting here in the first place was to deal with the monster that was our father.”
Lata and Fay didn’t have very good memories of Smarion. It’s because I’ve been abused and trained since I was a child.
Rather, when siblings think of their father, the emotion associated with them is closer to hatred.
However, it is not that there are no memories like any other ordinary family.
When Chiron was concerned about Smarion’s chaos and often visited the hometown, he became a benevolent father and gave the two of them sweets while sitting on his lap.
It had happened only a few times, but it must have been a precious moment in their childhood for the Procchi siblings. Even if I hated Smarion enough to not want to admit it.
“We rather think that getting rid of that monster as soon as possible is the duty of the Ghost Corps. Even if you think of your colleagues, that’s the right thing to do. Of course, even after all that, it’s shameless to leave this job to you… but I’ll ask you a favor.”
Jin nodded heavily.
Then, Quikantel gave the approximate situation so far. According to her, there have already been three chaotic explosions in Guigoksaeseong.
About 30 people were killed in the first explosion, and there was no damage from the second explosion thanks to the expansion of the encirclement in advance.
“…Explosions are getting shorter and shorter and even getting stronger. If this continues, there is a high possibility that damage will go beyond the entire forest and to neighboring Bement territories.”
Dante was already supporting the Barmal Union as long as Gogoksaeseong was within Bement.
The knights of Highlan and Feralga were completely blockading the area. To prevent the dangers of the Barmal Alliance from being exposed to other great powers, so that they cannot take advantage of it.
In the meantime, my colleagues were just waiting, unable to do this or that.
To subdue them by entering first, the expected damage was too great and they might be ‘annihilated’, so I couldn’t use my hands.
It was because Talaris, Misha Murakan, and Jin, his biggest allies, were not there.
“We stopped Dante Hylan from going out to subdue him himself.”
If the seal is completely broken and it is judged that the Barmal Union alone cannot handle it, then Dante will have no choice but to step in.
Dante is the hope of the Empire and the ruler supported by all the people. In a situation where everything was uncertain, it was right to exclude him from participating in the subjugation as much as possible.
In addition, Dante went directly to the contaminated areas within the empire and kept even the giant forces in check, so he couldn’t afford it at all.
In the meantime, if Dante chooses Guigoksaeseong for Jin and his colleagues, the people have no choice but to die elsewhere.
“Good job.”
Jin looked at the front gate of Guigoksaeseong.
‘Smarion Froach… Are you aware of my coming?’
The aura of chaos spreading throughout the Guigoksaeseong area was deepening. It was a phenomenon that started right after Jin arrived, and this time, he was the only one who correctly recognized the fact.
As if waiting for an enemy, the energy of chaos spread by Smarion was slowly concentrating on Jin.
Jin calmly faced that mighty energy. And I came to a conclusion right away.
“I’ll rest for a day and enter Guigoksaeseong tomorrow morning.”
It took a little bit of energy and injuries consumed in the battle with Ranke to go right away.
“tomorrow?”
“Yes, if the seal lasts until tomorrow, no. If Smarion Proch waits for me until then, it would be more accurate to say. He is already in a state where he can break through the seal.”
“What are you talking about?”
“As soon as I arrive, Smarion’s energy is amplifying. If the seal hadn’t completely lost its function, it couldn’t have grown at such a rapid rate. The deep murderous intent and hostility are all directed at me.”
Colleagues do not know whether Jin has achieved achievements or acquired a sense of existence. There is only a vague feeling that I have become stronger.
Because of this, no matter how strong he became, he doubted whether he would be able to subdue Smarion alone, but he did not express it. It was because he was Jin.
“Then what should we do?”
Jin turned his gaze and looked at the ‘artifacts’ installed in the camp.
These were the artifacts he had personally experienced the day he first met Quaul at the cabin.
It was an artifact that claimed to be all sorts of obstacles, including the blue stick ‘Auror Jammer’ and the net made for the great knight battle.
“Prepare for the aftermath of a battle nearby. Neighboring cities can also be damaged if the shield is not tightly formed. And concentrate all the Aura Jammers on the battlefield where I and Smarion are fighting.”
“Does that mean that those skilled enough to withstand the shockwave should keep their distance and keep using the jammer against you and Smarion?”
“Exactly, Mr. Quikantel.”
Naturally, doing so would inevitably put some restrictions on the use of Jin and Smarion’s Aura. Naturally, the external damage will be reduced as much as that.
It was a method that Jin would never have used if he were an ordinary soldier. Because Smarion can use the power of chaos even without an aura.
However, Jin has spirituality and magical powers.
“I can’t predict exactly how far the impact of battle will go, so it’s definitely better if both my and Smarion’s powers are reduced. As long as the performance of the jammer supports it.”
“Anything else?”
“Please use all possible means to prevent damage to the imperial lands other than Guigoksaeseong. Also, keep an eye on the Red Owl so that it doesn’t get into trouble. That’s it.”
* * *
Noon the next day.
Fortunately, Jin was able to head to Guigoksaeseong after taking a full day of rest.
Because I meditated all night, I couldn’t talk more with my colleagues.
Jin was classifying Smarion as a target to deal with with that much concentration.
“When I enter, a battle will most likely begin immediately. So be particularly careful with Quikantel, Sir Amela, and Enya, Lord Barkas.”
“Yes Gongja!”
Those four people were closest to the battlefield and had the role of protecting the jammer and those who used it.
Enya’s fire shield and Quikantel’s power of time were the core of the protective shield.
Five hundred jammers were stationed near Guigoksaeseong. That was more than 80% of the current jammers possessed by the Barmal Alliance.
“I wish you luck, my lord.”
“Don’t worry too much, everyone.”
Jin turned to Lata and Fay. The two still suffered from the fact that Jin was given this kind of role, but they kept a firm eye on him so that he would not feel more uncomfortable.
“If I hadn’t met the lord, the Ghost Corps would have been annihilated by that monster that encroached on my father one day. just like my mother did Don’t get hurt, lord.”
Jin patted the Prochi brothers and sisters on the shoulder once and moved to Guigoksaeseong.
