Chapter 239. Noise pollution complaint (2)
– …that groan! Etchwii!
The lava giant trembled greatly.
He bent his back and let out a violent sneeze.
Lava snot splattered in all directions and hit the ground.
Seeing that, Lloyd thought.
‘omg? that…Without manners, without a mask, sneezing…no no that’s not what’s important Could it be that the giant is weak against the cold wind?’
Lloyd felt a ringing, clear bell ringing in his head.
Hellgate opened only for escape.
But all in all, the Hellgate connected to the polar regions of the human world.
Thanks to this, a fierce cold wind began to blow through Hellgate.
The lava giant was trembling pitifully in front of him.
Innocent or pitiful, he had his arms wrapped around his shoulders.
He sneezed and shook his head.
– Gureuk! Etch! Kurreuk! Itchu! Gureuk! Wow!
When I saw it, I had a question.
Doubt turned to suspicion.
I peeked into the possibility from suspicion.
Possibilities shone with vague hope.
‘Maybe it’s possible. First of all, check it out!’
Lloyd lifted the shovel hung from Kkomingi’s saddle.
I ran two circles lightly.
crashed
At the same time, he extended his shovel.
right!
The blast shot from the shovel flew several tens of meters away.
He hit the shivering lava giant on one shoulder.
Knock!
– Grouk!
A lava giant glaring at me like it stings.
The cool Lloyd immediately raised the nose of Kkomingi.
I quickly raised my altitude to avoid getting a counterattack from the lava giant.
And observed.
The shoulder of the lava giant he had just shot a blast at.
‘please. My guess is correct.’
Aspiration and hope bloomed in Lloyd’s eyes.
What if your guess is correct?
I thought maybe I could catch that lava giant.
Then you don’t have to give up on railroad construction.
You don’t have to waste your hard work here.
‘So please!’
His wishful gaze pricked the lava giant’s shoulder.
In the meantime, the lava giant’s shoulder was slowly restored.
gurgling!
Like boiling curry.
It was a shoulder made of bubbling lava.
A hole about 50 cm in diameter and 3 meters in depth, created by Lloyd’s blasting, was easily repaired.
However, the speed of recovery….
‘It’s a bit slow!’
Lloyd’s eyes sparkled.
It is certainly.
Recovery slowed down.
Although it was only a small hole.
Although the damage was much smaller than the damage she received while receiving Xaviel’s attack earlier.
Even so, it was clear that the lava giant’s ability to recover was slightly slower than before.
Lloyd seemed to know why.
‘He got a little chilly from being exposed to the polar wind all of a sudden.’
That was the reason.
It was actually a simple principle.
It was easy when you think of boiling curry.
You cannot cut boiling curry with a knife or pierce it with an awl.
No matter how much you cut and stab it, it boils bubbling and quickly fills the hole.
‘But what if the curry gets cold?’
It gets thicker.
hardens
Anyone who has stored a well-boiled curry in a tapa container and stored it in the refrigerator will understand easily.
‘I can cut hard curry with a knife or pierce it!’
Lava seemed to be the same.
What happens when it cools down and hardens to form a rock?
I thought that I would not be able to recover from being cut and pierced in an instant like now.
‘can do. you can do it. This is a catch.’
Flying through the arctic winds that began to rage in the skies above Hell.
Lloyd looked at Hellgate with wide eyes.
‘Oh hey, that good fortune!’
At this moment, Hellgate couldn’t look so pretty.
It was really just a hell gate I opened to escape.
I really didn’t know that it would connect to the poles like this and give me hope of victory.
“So let’s do it right now. Kkoming!”
“Kkoming!”
“Down at once!”
“Komiming!”
I cut through the wind and lowered my altitude.
The moment I thought I was approaching the right distance to deliver my voice, I shouted.
“Javiel!”
Xaviel responded to this cry.
From about 200 meters away, the guy glanced back at me.
“excuse me! topside! Do you see the open Hellgate in the sky!”
nod
The guy nodding his head.
Lloyd put more mana into his vocal chords and shouted.
“Over there! now! Because of the cold wind coming out! that giant! It’s getting cold! perhaps! I think I can catch that one!”
nod
Xaviel nodded.
I agree.
Even if it wasn’t, I was getting a similar feeling.
‘It’s thanks to that Hellgate that Lloyd-sama opened.’
I saw a lava giant shivering in the cold wind.
It was clear that he was shivering in the cold wind from Lloyd’s cry just now.
If that’s the case, that giant won’t be able to recover as quickly as before.
‘I have to do my part properly.’
Lloyd-sama came to Hell believing in this side.
So, this side also has to repay that trust.
When danger arises, it must be dealt with appropriately.
Xaviel thought that was his role in coming to hell with Lloyd.
Kwak!
Blood vessels sprouted on the back of his hand holding the sword.
It was from then.
Xaviel’s offensive became more ferocious.
Each ska!
Without any mercy or hesitation.
With only certainty
cut and cut again
Sliced and sliced again.
I cut off a piece of the world and cut it again.
The swordsman slashed, sliced, and cut the lava giant’s entire body evenly.
– Grrrr! Etch! Grrrr! Gureuk!
Even so, it was a lava giant who was frightened by the sudden cold.
Even Xaviel’s attacks became more blatantly fierce, so he didn’t know what to do.
His entire body was cut and sliced in aura.
Of course, it was still recovering.
However, the rate of recovery was getting slower.
It was because the lava was cooled by the cold wind.
The lava giant had a hunch.
At this rate, I’m afraid I’ll die here unluckily.
He said that if his body cooled down and was still stiff and attacked by that silver-haired sword, then he would really not be able to recover well.
Then there was only one answer.
– See you next! Etch! Roll!
The lava giant turned around while being hit by dozens of skirmishes.
He openly turned his back on Xaviel.
Then he limped and started running.
“What? Could he?”
Lloyd, who watched it from above, murmured.
Suddenly, an ominous feeling bloomed like beef bone broth brewed for 10 years.
Soon the feeling became a reality.
thump thump thump!
“…that guy! run away!”
Lloyd cried out.
It really was.
That lava giant was openly choosing to run away because he thought the situation would be unfavorable!
‘There are all these guys!’
Lloyd almost grabbed the back goal.
It had to be.
On the subject of appearing out of nowhere and completely turning the construction site upside down.
On the topic that even the side trying to stop it was completely ignoring it.
Now that the situation is a bit unfavorable, you run away right away?
“Catch him!”
Lloyd’s cry became urgent.
Simply outraged by the lava giant’s opportunistic(?) behavior?
It wasn’t.
‘If you miss him here…It’s over, it’s over, it’s over!’
Lloyd was convinced.
What if I miss that lava giant here?
So what if I can’t finish him off completely?
You will never get a chance to catch him again.
‘I don’t know anything else, but that’s for sure. Really. If I can’t catch that here, this opportunity will never come again!’
The reason was simple.
The Hellgate he opened.
A polar wind blowing from there.
for the wind’s influence would not reach far.
‘of course. No matter how cold the arctic wind is, it’s only the amount that flows out of Hellgate, which is several meters in diameter. Compared to that, how vast is hell!’
So, how about an analogy?
This was a similar situation to installing an air conditioner with a capacity of 5 pyeong in the living room of a 300 pyeong mansion.
‘Then it’s cool only in front of the air conditioner. A little bit of a run out of the air conditioner? It gets hot quickly.’
I suddenly remembered the time when I was in Korea.
Among them, I remembered the time when I was overcoming the harsh summer heat.
Of course, there was no air conditioning in the room at the gosiwon where he stayed.
It was a luxury to wish for such a thing at the cheapest and oldest gosiwon.
So on a really, really hot day.
On days when I really want to die of fat.
I used to go to a nearby bank or town office.
It was because I was able to blow on the air conditioner for free.
‘But it wasn’t a good place to be there. People there turned the air conditioner on very weakly to save on electricity bills. It’s small!’
The bank is very large.
The air conditioning output was rather weak.
That’s why it should be right in front of the air conditioner to keep it cool.
It was thanks to the valuable (?) experience at that time.
Lloyd was able to accurately penetrate the psychology of the fleeing lava giant.
‘He knows that the effect of the cold wind will disappear if he moves out of this area!’
You just have to run away from here.
That’s how you get away from Hellgate.
Then the cold wind will become lukewarm.
The body that has cooled down for a while will become hot again.
It will restore an invincible body that quickly recovers from any attack.
‘…That would be his calculation. But what if things went the way he calculated? You’ll never catch that one. you won’t be able to stop it Railroad construction sites are not limited to here. Because it spans a whopping 110 kilometers!’
In other words, what if that guy escapes from here?
And what if you keep trying to sabotage this side’s construction?
It meant that he would go on a wild rampage in the field where the winds of Hell Gate could not reach.
No matter how hard she and Xaviel tried.
Even if you try to stop him.
It also meant that I couldn’t stop it.
‘Because Hellgate was only able to open this one. can’t open it anywhere else. We can keep the Hell Gate here, but we can’t open more.’
So, that lava giant must be caught here unconditionally.
In order to do that, we need to stop him from escaping.
Lloyd cried out in agony.
“catch! Attack that guy’s legs first!”
I picked up the shovel myself.
He encouraged Kkomingyi to fly.
It was from then.
Lloyd in the sky.
On the ground, it was Xaviel.
In their own way, they poured waves of attacks on the lava giant.
Lloyd fired a triple blast without hesitation.
It hit the lava giant’s knees and shins.
Xaviel’s aura also cut off the lava giant’s lower body countless times.
Every time that happened, lava like fresh blood flowed from the two legs of the lava giant and burst out.
Cooled down, the slower regeneration speed made him limp even more.
but….
– Groururook! Grouruk!
The escape of the lava giant could not be stopped.
while limping ever more severely.
Even while blatantly dragging their toes.
In the end, the lava giant continued to move.
As befits a large man, he steadily moved away from Hell Gate every time he took a step with a tremendous stride.
At the same time, Lloyd’s expression darkened.
‘shit!’
I can’t stop it.
can’t hold on
No matter how cold the polar wind is.
It’s impossible to cool such a large body and that amount of lava all at once, so it’s still only the outside that’s cooling down little by little.
No matter how hard I hit and pierced, it was useless.
Even though it slowed down a bit, it still didn’t stop playing.
Tears welled up in Lloyd’s eyes when he realized that.
‘That guy is too big. So at a moment like this, a similar size should use some strength to block it. then that’s fine Oh, if only there was a sarcasm at a time like this!’
Could things have been different?
I heard bitter regret.
‘Because Bibeongi is about 100 meters tall. Besides, it’s heavy because it’s fat.’
Although the lava giant is 200 meters tall.
What if he’s still that lame?
It seemed that he could have stopped walking even if he held on to it.
But even that was a futile imagination in this yard.
‘I wasn’t lending Bibeongi to the king’s sister for free. You fool!’
If I could, I would love to go back to 4 months ago.
I wanted to hold on to my own collar at the time and shout.
Whether or not to lend a bibeongi.
If you’re going to lend it, pay a hefty rental fee.
It’s never free.
Even between parents and siblings, nothing is free.
I wanted to shout into my ear hole with maximum volume shouting.
‘Damn it! Damn it!’
The self who complacently lent me a sarcasm.
Stupid and thoughtless choice at the time.
Because of this, the railway construction was ruined.
I lost the string of hope that appeared before my eyes.
All the hard work you put in for three months is going to go to waste.
In addition, the old dragon’s soul could not be saved, and the dragon king sponsorship membership was blown away as a dream.
‘Then why are you lending him for free!’
It’s so unfair and regretful.
Tears welled up.
Meanwhile, the lava giant was limping hard and running away.
Although Xaviel is throwing an aura more fiercely.
Even so, the escape of the lava giant did not stop.
“…ha.”
When the Hell Gate opened.
when a cold wind blows.
I glimpsed hope for a moment.
There’s really no way now.
have to admit that
Lloyd let out a deep sigh.
I looked at the back of the lava giant running away with the feeling of watching another woman snatch the last two bags of 1+1 ramen left in front of my eyes at the local mart.
That’s why he didn’t realize that there was still a hidden card of hope left in him.
The Hellgate he opened.
So, the Hellgate connected to the polar regions.
In the Arctic Ocean, not far from the Hell Gate.
There was the bone dragon, the youngest member of the bone guard.
I came all the way here because of Lloyd’s order to ‘hide in the northern sea’.
I was quietly diving in the cold Arctic Ocean.
I just finally sensed Lloyd’s presence.
Creeping!
…It’s Lloyd!
This is owner Lloyd’s smell!
Pooh!
Like a puppy that smells its owner after a long time.
Bone Dragon was delighted.
He raised his head above the water.
And I found an open hellgate in the sky above my head.
