Episode 248
“Damn it. It tastes like death. Twi.”
Yongsik rubbed his face and spat.
His body was all in tatters.
< +15 Tomahawk > lost its brilliance as if it had never happened.
Blood flowing through scratched and torn skin.
And the time it takes for the blood to harden into black scabs.
During that time, long and short, Yongsik fought and killed the elite members of the Emperor’s bloodline, while others were on the verge of death.
It was to the extent that it was imprinted on my body anew what it means to cross the battlefield.
Even though he didn’t face Dildangt directly, he had to eliminate all the threats around him in order to assist Chunsam, who decided to face Dildangt one-on-one.
The fact that he had to fight hard against the mages wearing green robes and gold leaf patterns was so obvious that it didn’t even need to be said.
The words were supplementary, but in fact, it was no different from paying a hundred.
Being able to focus on one-on-one with Dildant literally meant that I had to deal with everything else.
In addition, it is not as easy as it sounds to have to block a hundred mages with only three people.
The current Yongsik, as well as the crew members of Chunsam Hardware, were doing their best.
‘Did they say it was an elder green mage… It’s not as green as rumors say.’
“Tsk.”
Woo woo woo woo!
Yongsik clicked his tongue at the mana resonant sound resonating from all directions.
Behind him, Yeong-cheol and Jin-man stood at a distance, drawing a triangle (△) formation.
Elder green mage. The green robe mages of the golden leaf that he, Yeongcheol, and Jinman, including him, are now dealing with by dividing them into 1/3.
Their name was a name I had heard at least once even as a chunsam hardware that was dark in the news of blood strife, and indeed, it was worth saying that it was as famous as its name value.
Rather than talking about how many levels each level is and how they are, it was the kind that often became a topic of conversation because of the uniqueness they had.
As in the beginning, even when the blood alliance was running as a major blood alliance, it had never revealed so much, but once it appeared, it created an environment capable of overturning an unfavorable war situation.
Generally speaking, a mage is a standardized class specialized in one attribute, such as a Fosmancer or a Pyromancer of the flame world, but the case of the Elder Green Mage was a little different.
It seemed more appropriate to say that it was not limited to any one attribute.
Unlike focusing on and specializing in one attribute to maximize power, a green mage that specializes in all four elemental attributes that exist in the natural world.
At first, it is bound to be criticized for being a trivial mixed soup class, but once the Fire, Water, and Wind class achieves a certain level of achievement, it exerts more power than a tolerable single-attribute mage.
That was the reason why the elder green mage in Like the Beginning was famous.
There were not just one or two Green Mages who had achieved a certain level of achievement, but a whopping one hundred.
And the combination magic of more than two attributes spread by those hundred people.
It is true that even the crew members of Chunsam Hardware, who are at the top of each class, are struggling to block the bombardment of combination magic with just three—or the vertex marked with a triangle alone.
To put it bluntly, it felt like waves of all colors were crashing incessantly.
A wave of death that creates a dazzling sight that makes the word splendid look colorless to the viewer, but makes those who face it wait for death.
And as long as you don’t know when the feast of the waves of death will end, you can’t waste your energy by rushing your power towards them.
In addition, 15 people in two rows of structures alternately bombarded the bar, rather than switching between air and defense, they had to be in a hurry to block the magic of the Green Mages.
The fact that there was almost no magic bombardment delay also played a role.
These elder green mages, unlike the numerous blood alliance magic flyers, the shift between the first and second rows was very natural, and the first and second rows immediately before the shift showed meticulousness in using magic at the same time.
– …Youngcheol? Only Jin? Are you all right?
– Such a fucking suit, do you think this looks good now?
– hmm. The snout is alive… but it’s on the verge of dying.
– I’m wrong. This is how I got into the coffin first.
When Yongsik asked, Yeongchul and Jinman’s group words rang in their ears.
Seeing that they were screaming in agony and saying that they were dying, it seemed that they were at their limit as well.
Even with Yeong-chul’s setting, which focuses more on defense than attack, it’s bound to be overwhelming, but Jin-man and himself were more focused on offense.
For them to block the firepower of the magic flyer composed of elder green mages was close to nonsense.
I wanted to be brave enough to have endured until now.
Of course, it was also a result of the trinity of Meister-Mechanic-Crafter, which was not a general class, and it was possible because the understanding and proficiency of equipment were almost perfect.
“It’s quite good for old people… but that’s all I can endure.”
“…hmm.”
cooong!
A roar erupts as Dildant slams the hammer on the floor.
Indeed, it must have been a cumbersome weapon worthy of its name.
Hammer of the Thunderstorm. < +10 Thunderfury > that has been strengthened ten times.
However, rather than the fact that Dildant’s weapon was +10, Chunsam felt that the weapon’s option itself was annoying.
It also went well with his job, which is a defense class among knights.
< Destroyer >. His most common nickname is < Dolsoe >.
In terms of class, it was a class that roughly corresponds to the hero class, with a very slow attack speed, but with that much power.
It was a so-called warrior class with one shot.
He is specialized in blunt weapons such as hammers, and has enough strength and defense skills to hit a slow but powerful one-shot.
Moreover, considering the fact that the effect of the < Thunder Fury > equipment he was holding becomes stronger the longer it drags on, he must have prepared for this setting from a long time ago, although he may not know it.

Description: Long ago, Zerna, the god of lightning, had a son from a human woman. And he left this weapon to his wife. One day, on the day when his son becomes an adult and wields this weapon, all humans in the world will know who his father is.
In other words, the weapon that Dildant was holding was a crazy weapon that could drop lightning just by holding it.
‘There is no chance of winning now.’
“What are you so preoccupied with, old man?”
Dismissed! Pajijijik!
While Chunsam was lost in thought, Dildant raised mana.
As if responding to his mana, < +10 Thunder Fury > emitted a blue light.
In terms of strength, he was also confident, and in fact, he did not feel that he was being pushed back at all by sharing several battles.
Having to take continuous damage due to the effect of that cumbersome weapon was enough to inevitably make us feel the limitations of a production class.
This is because if it is a weapon of the same class, the synergy with the class that handles that weapon cannot be ignored.
Not to mention, < Destroyer >‘s defensive skills are < Needle Armor >, which causes damage reflection for a certain period of time, and < Iron Body >, which boasts decent defense.
In addition, it was not difficult to fill the gap with a mere production class, such as < Demolition Nova >, which dealt damage from one’s own attack at once.
‘Is it still? Even enduring with this body…’
Kku-gu-gu-guk!
Although Chun-sam still had a reason not to collapse, the situation was not as easy as his thoughts.
“I don’t know what the corner believes in, but it’s useless.”
As Dildant beckoned, dozens of voices rang out.
The spells flowing from the mouths of the elder green mages fill the space like congratulatory messages resounding in the cathedral.
< The Abyss of Zerna >.
The essence of the dark blue barrier that now covered their heads.
At the voices of the elder green mages, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and the crew members, including Chunsam, felt their mouths dry.
It was because he had experienced firsthand how terrible the effect was.
Being unable to enter or exit is the default, just standing still forces element resistance and status ailment resistance to 0.
Besides, the fact that the dark clouds waved once like this means that the terrible shower of thunder and lightning is about to begin.
I didn’t even know if I should just pray for life without even resisting.
< Zerna's Abyss >, which had been activated the other day, could only be offset by completely destroying half of Yeong-cheol’s accessories, but if the disaster struck again, his life could not be guaranteed.
“Such dog-ass bastards! You guys don’t even have a jangyuyu! yes!”
“كيف بحق الجحيم يجب —أنأفعلاستد …عاكتكوت—.”
“These X-rated bastards are talking to adults, but even though they can’t answer, their eyes are wide open…!”
“يحقحقحقفحق —جحييجب —نفلاستد—.”
An ominous sense of déjà vu came over while Jinman spit out all sorts of twin curses.
A terrifying presence that can never be ignored fills the space again.
A gigantic mana that seemed to crush Ruwella’s entire resistance, and the breath of Zerna, the god of lightning.
“Wo Yeong-cheol?”
“I don’t know anymore.”
Kururrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Soon after, as the sky in the barrier whirled with the sound of thunder roaring, Yongsik as well as Yeongcheol shook their heads in resigned voices.
The ship this time seemed to be more powerful than the previous one, and even Young-chul, who had already endured numerous battles with half of the accessories blown, had no way to stop it.
[Notice: Warning Warning!]
[Notice: A strong mana response has been detected!]
[Notice: Barrier spells are making a difference!]
[Notice: Be very careful not to die from the effects of the barrier!]
Quaaaaaaaaaa! !!
And an unbelievable sight unfolded.
