Chapter 194 – Call of Heroes (2)
“Even in America?”
“Let’s watch the video first.”
Seo-joon pressed the ▷ button in the center of the frozen screen.
Hold on.
.
.
– Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
It started with a tearing scream.
Soon after, the video shook violently, and the screen was properly captured.
A ruined city landscape.
-Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
-Kwoaaaaa!!
There, a huge number of monsters were indiscriminately destroying the city center.
army of monsters.
There was no shortage of monsters that filled the screen, even if they were called legions.
They were monsters of 10 and 11 stars.
Wow!
Perseok!
Such monsters were ravaging the city center in groups.
-All bullets fired!!
-Tututututututuong!
-Quaaaaaang!
The army was mobilized and blocked the front of the monster army.
-Kwoaaaaa!!
-shit! Too many!
-retreat! retreat!!
But it only took a while.
It was not enough to handle the monster army.
-Save me!!
-Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
People were running away in a panic, driven by terrifying malice.
The person who was filming the video also started to run away, probably deciding that it was too much.
right at that moment.
-Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Kwajik!
Something bright red came out on the screen with an eerie sound.
Before long, Kwa Dang Tang! The screen shook violently with a sound.
And the video only reflected the ruined city center.
.
.
Seo-jun raised his gaze toward the video and looked at Lucas.
There is only one case where this amount of monster corps can appear in the city center.
twist.
And the Distortion was nothing but the result of Beserk’s power.
that means that.
It was proof that Beserk’s power remained.
It was only then that Seo-joon could understand Lucas’ question.
Lucas nodded slowly.
“The area is under a blockade order due to the overflowing Distortion dungeons.”
“yes? Is it that serious?”
Seojun asked with surprised eyes.
Of course, the content in the video was quite serious.
However, the United States was a world-class professional hunter powerhouse.
It has the largest number of professional hunters in the world, and the number of S-class hunters alone was 10,000 units.
Even American national heroes were double digits.
Most disasters could not even be included in the disaster axis.
It is true that the content of the video is serious, but not to the extent that it cannot be resolved.
Lucas replied with a smirk.
“Haha, I didn’t mean that. I must have made a misleading statement.”
Lucas spoke right away.
“What you saw on the video happened just yesterday. The containment order was issued because the monsters could not be dealt with yet.”
“ah.”
“Currently, the director and professional hunters from the management bureau are handling it. Maybe… it should have been dealt with by now.”
Seojun was able to nod his head only then.
In a word, the lockdown was a measure that the general public should not approach until the area was treated.
After all, America was America.
Seojun asked Lucas.
“Then why are you showing me this?”
Lucas spoke right away.
“I am assuming that the two videos you have seen are the result of the Distortion. And the Distortion… is the result of Beserk’s power.”
However, according to Seo Jun, Beserk died in England.
Then the Distortion was running rampant when it shouldn’t happen anymore.
In addition, in the previous video from Africa, there was even an existence presumed to be Beserk.
A contradiction that doesn’t fit back and forth.
“Do you have any personal guesses?”
Seojun shook his head slowly.
“I see…”
Lucas nodded with a very sad expression.
Apparently, since he was Seo-jun, who dealt with Beserk himself,
he wondered if he might know at least a clue.
Because the current situation was serious enough to remind us of the second cataclysm.
Seojun slightly turned his gaze to the sword castle.
For some reason, the swordsman didn’t say anything from a while ago.
Seo-joon looked back and looked at the video.
The video still reflected the city center that had become His Majesty.
‘Didn’t Beserk die…?’
Seojun was lost in thought for a moment.
Beserk apparently perished with the collapse of the world.
It was a fact that Seo-jun clearly confirmed with his own two eyes.
It was after that that I was taken to the boundary space.
Therefore, no further warping should occur.
By the way, the screen of the video you see now.
‘What is it?’
Wasn’t it really Beserk?
Or is Beserk resurrected?
Or was it an unidentified being at the time?
Many possibilities came to my mind as a concept organized in my head, but nothing was clear.
“Then, I will tell you more about this at the hero call-up.”
“When does the convocation start?”
The Sword Master, who was still at Lucas’s words, asked.
“Two days later.”
“Tsk.”
The swordsman bit his tongue and at the same time made a disapproving expression as he said.
“I’ve never been able to get the timing right.”
“Hahaha…”
Lucas just laughed awkwardly.
Seojun brushed off his thoughts.
Now that I’ve been thinking about it, I haven’t come up with an answer.
During the hero call, there will be many stories about the heroes of the cataclysm.
I didn’t know if I could get an unexpected clue then.
The full-fledged hero call is two days later.
Until then, there’s nothing to do.
Right now, it was more efficient to think about how to use 50 trillion.
‘I think it would be nice to listen to another lecture… a lecture on provocation.’
It seemed like it would be good to take the elixir one more time.
Currently, middle school is 78.6%.
Hadanjeon (下丹田) was 54.1%.
Seo-joon could not imagine what would happen if he completed these two danjeon.
‘I wish I could take Dragon Heart again…’
Seojun shook his head.
It was a rare elixir that one would only see once in a lifetime.
‘Let’s check out the chatter of newbies after a while.’
Seo-joon immediately took out his smartphone.
And
it was then.
The screen of the pad that was projecting the ruined city center.
-Sueuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
I suddenly felt something moving on the screen.
‘huh? Wasn’t the video over?’
Seo-joon looked at the screen unconsciously.
Then something whitish appeared on the screen.
‘…… rich?’
It was none other than Lich.
Seojun asked Lucas.
“Was Richie here?”
“Rich?”
Lucas tilted his head and questioned.
Seo-jun pointed his finger at the whitish shape reflected on the screen.
“Uh… is this a lich?”
Still, Lucas just tilted his head.
It was also because it was so blurry that I couldn’t make out its shape.
It was literally just something pale.
Above all, even considering that, it looked different from the typical Richie.
Lucas close to the cataclysm hero.
Even he didn’t seem to notice the subtle difference.
“It does look like a lich.”
Even the swordsman seemed to be thinking about Gingamin.
Seo-joon turned the video back again.
and for a very short time
It was just a passing moment, but there was something that caught Seo-jun’s senses.
Something of dark red light slightly seeping through the whitish shape.
Seojun expanded Chiron’s senses to the maximum.
‘Dragon Heart…?’
It was very similar to the Dragon Heart that Seojun had taken last time.
It wasn’t accurate because it was only seen on video.
couldn’t be precise.
but.
‘Can this be…?’
A possibility suddenly pops into my mind.
Seo-joon asked Lucas as if shouting.
“Where is this now… No, where did you say this is?”
#
Kwa Kwa Kwa Kwam!!!
“Keukhak!”
A man flew through the air with a tremendous explosion.
I hit the wall and felt a terrible pain.
“Kieh!”
“Knock off!”
Around such a man, a huge number of monsters rushed towards him.
“Hey…! shit!!”
The man gritted his teeth and held on to the spirit that was about to be cut off.
If you lose your mind here, you will die.
The man desperately raised himself.
– Logan!! Are you okay!!
An urgent voice came from the walkie-talkie attached to the man’s chest.
Logan shouted at the radio.
“Support! Is there support yet!!”
– Oh my God! You’re alive!
“Stop talking nonsense! Support!!”
-I contacted the director a while ago! If you hold on for a little while, the director will—.
“Not as the chief! There is a lich here!!”
– What?!?
At Logan’s words, a loudly panicked voice came over the radio.
Lich was a wizard who reigned at the top of the undead, and was in fact called the apex of the undead.
It was a terrible monster with a whopping 14 stars.
-Why is Lee Rich there!!
An urgent cry erupted over the radio.
But Logan couldn’t answer.
A
gigantic skeleton up to 5M in Logan’s field of vision with a creepy sound.
Dark eyes that seemed to burn with wide open eyes.
It was an undead wizard lich.
The lich held out his white, bony hand in front of him.
Before long, bundles of dark magic that contrasted with him exploded.
Quagga Gagagak!!!
“puck!!”
It raked deep into the ground and rushed towards Logan.
Logan threw himself hastily.
However, the response was a little late.
Black magic struck Logan, and Logan’s body flew through the air again.
“Cheukhak…!”
Blood gushed out of his mouth along with the pain that shook his insides.
Logan held onto his spirit until the end.
A shaky sight for an instant.
Suddenly, Richie’s figure disappeared.
And at the same time as I blinked once, Richie was approaching right in front of me.
It was Blink, a short-distance space jump magic.
In an instant, Richie approached right in front of him and grabbed Logan by the nape of his neck.
“Cuck!”
My throat was tight and I couldn’t breathe.
My face goes blue and my mind flickers.
Logan is a professional hunter belonging to the U.S. Hunter Administration and a high-ranking S-class hunter.
But in front of the lich, I couldn’t use any power.
The moment I was about to lose my mind.
– Logan!! Logan!!! Are you okay!!!
I woke up to the urgent call of the walkie-talkie.
Logan’s eyes flashed and his mana exploded for an instant.
Then he threw the sword he was holding at the lich’s skull with all his might.
Aaaaaaaang!
An enormous explosion erupted, shattering the lich’s skull.
At the same time, the lich’s grip loosened and Logan fell to the floor.
Iron pudduck.
“Heh heh…! Heh heh…!”
Logan took a deep breath.
Then he slowly looked at Richie.
The lich’s skull was completely caved in.
In fact, it looked as if it were dead.
“I bought some time—.”
That moment.
Turn it off!
Suddenly, a strange sound was heard and the sunken skull began to return to its place.
Before long, it completely took the shape of a skull.
Flash.
The dark eyes turned to Logan again.
“Come here, hello…”
Logan slumped down in his seat.
Lich was immortal.
It was literally ‘Undead’ that did not die.
Lich stores his life force in a Life Force Vessel.
A lich cannot die unless the Life Force Vessel is destroyed.
It is only to come back to life and be reconstituted.
And that Life Force Vessel is hidden where no one can find it.
There is only one way to kill a lich.
When the lich’s body is broken,
the lich’s body is reconstructed at the Life Force Vessel.
So, the only way was to track the reconstructed location and destroy the Life Force Vessel.
In the process, he had to kill the lich over and over again.
Even if the director of the administration was a hero of the cataclysm, it was impossible to do it alone.
Besides, there was something strange about this lich.
Turn it off.
He reconstructed his body on the spot, not where the Life Force Vessel was located.
Even so, I can’t feel the energy of the Life Force Vessel anywhere.
“No way…”
This…
was no ordinary lich.
Sueuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu000799 Jet-
black magic power erupted from Richie’s whole body.
Death, like the darkness of the abyss, bound Logan’s whole body.
Logan could not resist in front of that power.
end of life to come.
And that
was the moment.
Flash!
A bright light burst from behind Logan.
Want something for a while.
Kwaa and bang!
An enormous explosion erupted, and the ground on which the lich was standing collapsed in an instant.
Eventually, the ground was torn apart, and thousands of tens of thousands of fragments burst out.
All of those distorted fragments were fired at the lich as a single blow.
Kwaaaang!
Kaga Kaga Gak!
The space where Richie was standing exploded in an instant.
“What the…”
Logan was at a loss for words at the overwhelming sight.
In the meantime, Lich was far away, probably using blink magic.
But could it be that he was unable to respond to the sudden blow?
Richie’s left arm was crushed from being broken.
But it didn’t mean much.
As long as the Life Force vessel was in good health, the body could be reconstructed as many times as needed.
As expected, the lich led the mana.
however.
“……?”
For some reason, the body was not reconstructed.
Lich was greatly embarrassed and then drew out his magic one after another.
Even so, the body was not reconstituted.
“No way!”
Logan couldn’t believe it at all.
Because that means only one thing.
It meant that the Life Force Vessel was damaged.
But couldn’t that be possible!
“How…?”
Logan’s wide-eyed eyes seldom seemed to shrink.
Richey also began to shake violently with his two dark eyes.
Logan and Richie’s gaze naturally headed to the same place.
“an Asian…?”
Standing there was none other than an Asian, Seo-jun.
Seo-joon was still looking down at Longinus’s spear.
‘Did it damage the entity?’
The special ability of the Spear of Longinus.
Considering the performance of the imitation, it was an ability that could be roughly expected.
However, I did not know that it would be activated even though I had not entered the state of Fa-Gyeong.
‘Or did it end like this because I couldn’t be initiated?’
It is said that only when you reach the state of footing can you draw out the ability of truly transcendent equipment.
If he had used the foot mirror, the lich might have disappeared.
In any case, it meant that he could kill the lich even if he couldn’t use the fa-jin.
Seojun raised his gaze again and looked at Richie.
Quite different from the ordinary lich.
‘I can feel Beserk’s magic from that guy…’
To be precise, something in the dark red shape visible from his chest.
I had a guess, but it wasn’t accurate.
So, I had to check it out now.
‘Maybe I should spend 50 trillion on the Hwa-ta instructor.’
Flash!
Seojun fired TRP’s swiftness toward Richie.
