Episode 195 The sword that splits dimensions (3)
Quang!
Baek Woo-jin kicked the ground. I ran in a straight line toward the space where Tulan disappeared.
‘Darkness!’
-Know.
I caught the darkness. With a roar like the growl of an animal, a blade of darkness stretched out like a lion’s teeth.
-Can you see it?
‘see.’
Baek Woo-jin nodded. As I held the darkness, I saw a scar like a clock hand floating in the air at the place where Tulan disappeared.
Cheeeeee!
A red aura spread out from the black blade. The characteristic dimensional interference that separates dimensions has been activated.
Sigh!
Baek Woo-jin brought down darkness and tore apart dimensional scars. With the soft sensation of water splitting, the dimensional gap widened like a clam.
“uh…?”
“What the hell!”
“Baek Woo-jin?”
The eyes of all talented people focused on Baek Woo-jin due to the bizarre noise that cut across dimensions. Their eyes were trembling with shock.
Baek Woo-jin looked at Baek Yeon-hwi before entering the dimension. I told a story with my eyes. I’m going to catch that crazy dark elf.
Chaaaang!
Baek Yeon-hwi nodded and Baek Woo-jin laughed and threw himself into the dimensional gap.
“Great captain! “What on earth is that!”
Jin Hye-ri approached Baek Yeon-hwi and pointed to the closing dimensional gap.
“I do not know. However…”
Baek Yeon-hwi turned around, holding his sword tightly. He muttered as he rushed towards the dark elves.
“He asked me to trust him.”
* * *
“What are you!”
As soon as I entered the dimension, I saw Tulan with a pale face. His expression was falling as if he couldn’t even imagine it.
“Is this your dimension? “It’s obscene.”
Baek Woo-jin ignored Tulan’s words and looked at his dimension. It was a gray space the size of a basketball court, with black fog swirling like a dark zone.
Ding!
[A barrier field has been activated.]
[Barriers and formations that are harmful to you are nullified.]
-A barrier field?
‘It looks like there’s a barrier in this space?’
A message appeared indicating that the barrier had been invalidated, indicating that it was not just for escape.
“I don’t know who you are, but you did something very stupid. “You shouldn’t have come here.”
Tulan giggled and laughed at Baek Woo-jin.
‘I don’t know what it is, but it’s good.’
I was confused at first, but when I thought about it, I realized that it was actually a good thing. It was an opportunity to kill a special human who could cross dimensions.
‘You’re probably already losing strength.’
This dimensional gap is connected to the Dark Zone.
Because the effects of the barrier and black dance that occur in the dark zone are in effect, humans cannot demonstrate their true abilities.
“I salute your stupid head. “You…”
“That far.”
Baek Woo-jin rushed in front of Tulan and performed a swordsmanship. Tulan gritted his teeth at the bloody energy emanating from the scabbard.
Whoops!
Tulan urgently pulled out his curved sword and blocked the sword attack. A fierce spark erupted between Gokdo and Amingeom.
“dare!”
“I’m in a bad mood. “I have no intention of talking to a guy like you.”
Baek Woo-jin gently changed his trajectory and slashed his sword at the top of Tulan’s head.
“Lafern Kiaron Carpenta!”
Tulan urgently recited a spell and retreated. Following the magic mantra, ominous characters flashed from his curved sword.
“If you want to go, leave what’s on your neck and go.”
Baek Woo-jin sneered and followed Tulan. I aimed for his neck and legs with a combined sword technique that included the techniques of Kwae and Kang.
Okay! Damn it!
Every time Tulan’s curved sword collided with the Dark Sword, red sparks exploded and it shook as if it would break.
“Ugh!”
Tulan felt his stomach tighten as he blocked Baek Woo-jin’s attack that was swirling like a storm. I couldn’t understand the current situation at all.
‘What is this guy? ‘Why don’t you get tired!’
Inside this dimension, just like the Dark Zone, aurors and stamina are consumed heavily, and only half of the existing abilities can be used.
However, all of those abilities were ineffective against the human in front of him. Neither the barrier nor the black dance worked.
“I shouldn’t let my guard down, right?”
Baek Woo-jin lifted the Amin-geom upward with the tricks of the sword and the sword.
Sigh!
Tulan drew a curved sword for defense, but the female sword climbed up the curved sword like a snake, creating a long scar on Tulan’s cheek.
“Kwaaah!”
Red energy exploded from Tulan’s curved sword. It was a perfectly tangible manifestation of Auror strength.
Fuuuuuuu!
The force that burst out from Tulan’s curved island swept the surrounding area like a storm. The floor became a mess as if an artillery bomb had exploded.
“Kanggi?”
Baek Woo-jin retreated before that and was not harmed, but he could not hide his surprised expression.
-no. I borrowed the power of witchcraft and the smoke that spread throughout this space. It is not a purely created strength. Your understanding of swordsmanship is much higher. Don’t be scared.
‘It’s rather disappointing that I feel scared.’
Baek Woo-jin licked his lips and rushed at Tulan, who was filled with madness.
Pow! Pubububung!
Tulan swung the curved sword wrapped in steel like a beam of light, but Baek Woo-jin avoided the attacks by stepping on the footwork that contained Byeon and Hwan’s tricks.
“You loach!”
Tulan ground his teeth harshly. That damned human was dodging his attack as if he knew it in advance. I was getting more and more annoyed.
“Kaaaaap!”
Tulan let out a roar, pouring out even thicker energy into the curved sword. The strength surrounding his curved sword became as thick as a log.
“Look back!”
Although Tulan’s strength range has expanded, its speed has increased. It fell like a hawk aiming for its prey.
“Tsk.”
Baek Woo-jin gave up dodging and raised his sword. A black air current surged from his sword.
Whoops!
The curved sword, as strong as a telephone pole, and the dark sword engulfed in a black air clashed.
“it’s over! Like this… huh?”
The corners of Tulan’s mouth, which was smiling in victory, trembled.
‘Why…’
I couldn’t believe it. His curved sword, which contained much stronger energy, bounced away with the strange sound of a saw blade turning.
“What is this!”
The energy contained in his curved sword transcended human aura. It was a situation that made no sense.
“It’s called a wagum.”
“Wow wagum?”
“Power isn’t everything.”
“shut up!”
Tulan exploded all the energy flowing through his heart and put it into the curved sword. The red river became as huge as the crescent moon at dawn.
“Kaaaaap!”
“And I’m not particularly weak either.”
Baek Woo-jin raised the aura of the dantian and expanded the black vortex that swirled around the dark sword. A waterspout filled with darkness rose from the blue blade.
Kyaaaaaaa!
Red steel and black vortex collided at the center of the dimension.
Kwaaaaang!
An explosion so violent as to shake the dimension erupted, and Tulan’s strength was torn apart like paper.
Kiiiiing!
However, the black vortex created by Baek Woo-jin engulfed Tulan’s strength and created an even bigger rotation.
Pudddeuk!
The evil aura engraved on the curved sword lost its shine and the blade of the curved sword broke in half.
“How…”
“Well.”
Baek Woo-jin slashed his sword at Tulan while maintaining the waterspout that had swallowed up the red river.
“Aaaah!”
Tulan spread the sword with all the energy remaining in the broken curved sword, but it was no use.
Sigh!
The round auror was torn like a sheet of paper, and Tulan’s upper right body was torn apart by the whirlpool.
“Huh huh!”
The spell seemed to have been broken, and a fierce scream escaped Tulan’s lips.
-It’s simple.
‘The force is strong, but the technique is immature.’
Tulan’s strength and aura were outstanding, but his skills were lacking. If he was a proper strong user, he wouldn’t have been able to win this easily.
“What are you? How can he demonstrate such abilities here…”
Tulan coughed up blood and looked up at Baek Woo-jin with a bewildered face.
“Because I have a good constitution.”
“Body constitution?”
“And you have no right to ask questions.”
Baek Woo-jin put his sword to Tulan’s neck with a cool look in his eyes.
“What is that giant tree in the center of the dark zone?”
“It is a tree made using the seeds and fruits of Elain. “But what can you know just by hearing that?”
“Eline?”
-Eline! This guy is definitely from our continent! Elaine is the world tree of our continent! These crazy people put dark magic into the seeds of the World Tree!
“Elain is the world tree?”
“Huh! “How could this human…”
Tulan’s soul drained from his eyes. After hearing the name Elaine, I realized that it was a world tree, but I couldn’t figure out its identity.
“Why are you trying to spread the Dark Zone?”
“A loud voice….”
“A voice?”
“There’s a voice in my head…”
Tulan held his head with his free hand. Thick veins sprouted from his entire body.
“No!”
“Tulan!”
Tulan was unable to answer fully and scratched his neck and head before hanging his head. His eyes were wide open and he wasn’t breathing.
-It is a pharmaceutical spell. It’s a spell that makes you lose your breath when you answer a sensitive question.
‘Still, I got some information.’
I learned that the Black Tree corrupted the seeds of the World Tree and grew them, and that I could hear a voice from them. This will definitely be an important clue.
“Then how should I get out?”
– Catch me.
Baek Woo-jin caught the darkness. Red energy burned from the blade of the black sword, and several scars appeared. The scars sparkled faintly, as if they would soon be erased.
“Let’s go here.”
Baek Woo-jin cut the nearest toothpick-shaped scar. The space opened with a clicking sound. I jumped into an open dimensional gap.
“Is it a dark zone?”
It was a space where everything was covered in black fog. However, the fog was pushed back by the aura of Rasa Doom that covered his body, so he could not even approach.
-A terrible darkness is dissolved in the black fog.
‘But unlike what I heard, I don’t feel much.’
The range and sensitivity of my senses were clearly reduced, but I did not feel any decrease in my abilities or auror stamina.
-Even breathing is a fraud.
The darkness stuck out its tongue as if it was fed up.
“Is this the root of the black tree?”
I could see thick, black roots sticking out of the ground like the veins on the back of my hand.
Whick!
I cut with the sword, but it didn’t feel like I was cutting through the air. The roots are in another dimension.
“This is an opportunity.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled as he looked at the roots of the black tree.
-Opportunity?
“The dark elves led their troops into battle. There must be very few people guarding this place, right? “This is an opportunity to clear the Dark Zone without interference.”
Baek Woo-jin grabbed the darkness again. I activated dimensional interference and covered the darkness with a red aura.
-It’s disgusting. It’s spread all over here like a spider’s web.
“You have to cut the line that connects to this space, not here.”
I couldn’t get too close to the black tree because the monster might be there. I killed the presence and ran into the dark zone, following the roots sprouting from the ground.
‘That’s it.’
At what seemed to be the end of the block, I found a thick root that looked like the trunk of a zelkova tree.
‘If you go any further than this, it could be dangerous when you escape. ‘I’d like it here.’
-It’s gross so cut it all at once.
When Baek Woo-jin injected the aura of Lasadum into the darkness, the black sword energy covering his blade soared into the sky.
It was the manifestation of the third sword of darkness, Black Death.
Kwaaaaaaaa!
The destructive blade of the black tree cut off the entire root of the black tree, not only on the ground but also deep into the ground.
Fuuuuuuu!
Black, blood-like sap spewed out from the roots of the black tree, accompanied by a cool sound like hundreds of drums being torn apart.
[Woooooooo]
A bizarre scream rang out from the center of the dark zone where the black neck was, and the fog in the dark zone began to clear.
* * *
Quaaaa!
Baek Yeon-hwi moved to Block 5 with Hyeongeomdae. When we arrived near block 5, a fierce mana storm broke out and a bloody battle was underway.
There were only 5 elites visible, and the talented people in the 5 blocks were helplessly being pushed aside.
“Start the battle right away!”
Since everyone was in a dangerous situation, Baek Yeon-hwi gave instructions to the prosecutors and then went out like a bullet.
“Darkan!”
Baek Yeon-hwi stabbed the dark elf Darkan in the neck with a sword wrapped in steel. Darkhan urgently retreated, chanting an unknown spell.
“Baek Yeonhwi! “You!”
Baek Yeon-hwi was supposed to be angry, but on the contrary, Darkhan was venting his anger at Baek Yeon-hwi.
“What have you done to Tulan!”
Tulan did not appear even though the operation time had passed. Because of that, Kanzel, who was supposed to move with Tulan, showed up late.
Contrary to plan, two elites were missing, so there was a delay in organizing all five blocks of talented people at once. The operation was virtually a failure.
‘Tulan…’
The biggest problem was that Tulan had completely disappeared. It was nowhere to be seen.
“Tulan didn’t come?”
Baek Yeon-hwi’s eyes sparkled. If Tulan didn’t show up, there was only one reason.
Coo coo coo coo!
As Baek Yeon-hwi was about to open his mouth, an earth-shattering roar was heard. After that, a deafening sound rang out from the center of the dark zone, causing goosebumps to rise throughout the body.
“Huh!”
“The three world trees scream!”
“That’s ridiculous!”
The faces of the dark elves turned pale when they heard the ghost’s cries. They seemed shocked and could not take their eyes off the black tree in the distance.
“Go back! ASAP!”
Under Darkan’s instructions, the elite dark elves and dark elves all retreated.
“You guys! “You will regret what happened today!”
Darkhan glared at Baek Yeon-hwi with bloodshot eyes and disappeared into the dimension.
“What’s going on?”
“What on earth is this?…”
“But he survived. ha!”
The talented people looked puzzled, not knowing why the dark elves retreated. It was my first time seeing them look so urgent.
“No way…”
As the name Baek Woo-jin passed through Baek Yeon-hwi’s mind, the black fog of the dark zone in front of him began to lighten.
Hahaha!
A cool breeze that I hadn’t felt in a while passed by and swept away the black fog.
The greenery, neither gray nor black, was revealed and the magnificent sun shined down on it.
The light of life sparkled in the bushes and trees that had sunk as if they were dead.
“uh? Tae Taeyang?”
“Ah…”
“Is this a dream?”
The talented people held their breath and looked at the brilliance of the sun shining over their heads. I couldn’t figure out what happened. It felt like my brain stopped working.
“The Dark Zone has disappeared….”
“The Dark Zone has been erased!”
“It’s the sun! “The fog has cleared!”
Tears were flowing from the eyes of the talented people.
The purification of the Dark Zone, which had repeatedly failed despite countless fights and sacrifices, was finally accomplished. My heart was pounding and tears flowed.
“I can’t believe something like this is happening…”
Baek Yeon-hwi swallowed dryly and looked at the space where the black fog had disappeared.
Although only one area of the dark zone was purified, it was no different from the light of hope shining. This was the first victory since the appearance of the Black Tree.
“But who did this?”
“It was something that never happened in the operation. “Was there any secret operation?”
“therefore. “What on earth is going on?…”
As the powers were wondering why the Dark Zone was purified and who did it, the sound of small footsteps was heard.
Jeez.
Baek Woo-jin appeared with the sound of footsteps that attracted attention. He smiled while enjoying the sunlight pouring from the sky.
“The weather is nice today.”
