I felt my body being swept backwards. The earth snake stretched out its twisted body. That massive body made of the ground crashed into the golden palace at a speed that was hard to believe it was the ground.
Koo Goo Goo. the earth cries The dust rises hazy. The scattered dust also clung to the wings of the homunculus, interfering with the combustion process. The homunculi that were flying in the sky staggered in unison.
In it, a whirlwind gusts up, carrying a lot of dirt and sand.
The wind melts everything. The fragrance, the water, and even the earth. The wind that melts and carries away everything in the world and does not collect in one place is truly dignified.
A whirlpool of soil and sand rises high. It is as if a dragon is about to ascend to heaven. Human appreciation seems to be similar regardless of the East and West, and people in the old days named it Yongoreum after seeing it.
The regressor was similar.
Cheonji Geomgon Snake Parasitic Cone.
The regressor holding the sandstorm like a sword shouted at the golden palace.
“I prepared this one too! If you want to fight like that, fight me first!”
After the most informal declaration of war, the regressor brandished a sandstorm. It was followed by a roar as if the world was splitting apart.
But it will be difficult to predict. That the power wielded like that was simply a show to attract attention.
Of course, that attack with the earth snake is definitely threatening, but it’s not enough to reach the golden mirror unless it’s a homunculus opponent. It is better to attack supernatural disasters such as the Golden Scenic rather than confront them on a scale.
Regressors know that too. That’s why I attacked with the maximum power I had.
To advance us into the gap where the world collides.
“Let’s go now!”
Thanks to the attention from the other side, he entered the Golden Palace without blood. From now on, it’s thief’s time. I took advantage of the gap made by the regressor and went out…
“You’re stupid.”
When I went out, there was a steel man standing in front of me. The homunculus, whose whole body was covered in armor, looked down with a cold gaze.
Oh really. because it’s difficult Normally, you can read ahead with mind reading and either retreat or advance. All of them are homunculus, so I can’t read their thoughts. Do all ordinary thieves steal so inconveniently? I’m honored, really.
“The Golden Palace is the territory of the Golden Palace, and the Golden Palace is the god of the Golden Palace. There’s no way you’ll miss a foreign object inside.”
Wearing the armor, he looked like he wouldn’t go through a single needle. Or maybe there is no human body in there. but what does it matter That armor is moving.
What is important is not the inside or essence of human beings. Whether that fist can break me or not determines my attitude. In that sense, you should be polite enough against that armor.
Fortunately, I was polite enough. It’s because I’ve prepared an opponent suitable for him.
The armor opened its mouth.
“Did you think that you could sneak in with such a huge presence?”
“You didn’t say anything because it was absurd, so you’re making arbitrary conclusions. I simply hated the sun, so I covered my body, so what? Do you think I will just hide from you?”
A bright red light flashed in the dark mouth of the earth snake. Originally, darkness is the absence of light, but it is a strength only for the progenitor. Darkness flowed from the snake’s mouth like poison.
Darkness gradually taking over the space. Among them, Tyr appeared leisurely as if he had gone on a picnic.
The homunculus showed signs of being wary. All of them did not come close and put forward only their abilities. It seemed that he was wary of being dominated by Tyr.
In the meantime, the armor said.
“…Are you alone?”
What is the true meaning of that word? Are you trying to check Tyr’s power, or are you wary of the yet invisible me? The former is fine, but the latter is a bit worrying. I hope you don’t mind me if possible.
Oh really. golden mirror. If you’re going to make a human, you’re going to make it right. Why did it have flaws so I couldn’t read my thoughts? It’s inconvenient!
As I grumbled forward, Tyr smiled lightly and slung his parasol over his shoulder.
“Hoo. Can you afford to count the numbers before me?”
clap. clap. Footsteps echoed in the distance. It was the sound of hundreds of footsteps. It was as if a well-trained army was advancing.
However, no matter where you look, the legion is nowhere to be seen. Until the sound of footsteps approached me.
Eventually, when the sound of footsteps reached the place where Tyr was. From within the jaws of the earth snake, the black knights clad in steel armor stepped out. Ten twenty thirty… and on and on.
They weren’t the dark knights who only brought their forms into the darkness. They are wearing armor. The supreme armor created by the golden mirror himself.
Tools can be anyone’s. The golden scriptures were prepared for the nations, but if they are captured, they are ours. On the way back, I collected all the armor that had no owner and handed it over to Tyr.
The Dark Knights, who wear armor made from the golden sphere and move with the power of Tyr. It’s not very strong because he was born in a dirt job, but… if he’s wearing hard armor, he’s a good job. After all, it’s a piece of equipment.
“I am an army alone. Count if possible. It may increase further in the middle, so you will have to concentrate.”
“A bloody stigma!”
The power to wield dominance by branding it with blood. It is the dominance of vampires. Vampires whose boundaries between themselves and the world are thin can divide themselves and dominate. With this power, young Tyr led tens of thousands of his followers.
It’s not enough right now though.
‘If it was like the past, I would have commanded over 10,000 legions… but now, even with the power of blood magic, it’s all about 100 or so. The authority has obviously weakened. One….’
“Gap!”
The armor fired its fist without any warning. It is more like shooting than martial arts. Shoulders and fists go to Tyr’s face at the same time.
Tyr doesn’t react well. Like the regressor, he did not have a heavenly vision, and since he had an immortal body, he lacked the sense of crisis that living things must have. When I noticed the attack of the armor, I was already on the verge of getting hit in the face.
It wouldn’t have mattered if he got hit, but he had a sense of rejection because it was his head. Tyr reacted belatedly and hurriedly grabbed the armor.
I was blown away and my arm was ripped off.
Tyr is too strong for his weight. So I can’t control the speed. The moment the arm was blurred, a roar was heard and one arm of the armor was uprooted.
Tyr’s body couldn’t control the speed either, so for an instant, Tyr’s arm fell off and swayed… but it was literally fleeting. stop playing Attacks that damage each other are meaningless to Tyr.
“…There is no reason to save the power you have. I guess I’ll have to use it a bit.”
Tyr pierced through the armor. No one was inside, but it didn’t matter. Let’s paint the brand with the blood of another homunculus while filling the inside with darkness… Now that the armor has become Tyr’s faithful servant.
The homunculus poured out their powers all at once. The Black Knights charged. The preview war took place here in the Golden Palace.
But even this is bait.
‘Go away, whew.’
Tyr showed his presence more and attracted the attention of the homunculus. to cover my tracks.
And I was going through a tunnel 1m below him where Tyr was fighting.
Stereotypes are scary. Since a snake is a creature that crawls on the ground, it is hypothesized that the details of the earth snake are similar to those of a snake because it is modeled after the shape of a snake.
However, there is no reason why a dirt snake made with authority must be the same as a snake. In the first place, snakes are not made of earth. Please keep that fact in mind.
In fact, the earth snake created by the regressor moved half-submerged in the ground. Above the ground, Regressor and Tyr, and below, I and Peru hid.
Magic is to pierce the gaps in consciousness. If you know the truth, it’s just a trick, but to people who don’t know, it’s a technique that’s more mysterious than magic. I used that skill to sneak into the Golden Palace.
There are problems when digging and exiting tunnels, but I have the means to overcome them.
He put the 10 of spades over his head and pushed gently.
“Earth Sorcery.”
The earth opened easily as if it were a lid. Lifting the ground above my head, I quickly jumped on top of it.
The landscape of the Golden Palace was cataclysmic. The Golden Palace I had visited earlier had been an idyllic scene of a village hall standing in the middle of a vast corn field, but now it had the atmosphere of a battle barracks with tents and fences erected.
Instead of farmers with scythes, guards with weapons roam around. Even though it’s still light, they light a bonfire and guard the fence in pairs. In the large tent, soldiers who clearly outnumber the capacity are walking out one after another. Well-maintained equipment gives off a cool glow.
Armor. window. shield. and soldiers. It is a scene that can be found in textbooks. It was probably a reproduction of the appearance of the war imagined by the golden mirror.
It’s standard in a good sense, and too stereotypical in a bad sense. Even if you have infinite resources, if you lack flexibility, you will be attacked.
But if you go to war with the military, you don’t know what will happen again. Because humans are learning creatures.
Because it’s a homunculus, you might not be able to learn.
“anyway. I have to break through there.”
is it possible It looks difficult even with mind reading, but I can’t even read the thoughts of those soldiers. Compared to Tyr, I’m a slob, but my powers, except for mind reading, are similar to them. Not to mention, he doesn’t even have the strength to break armor.
Is it this much even if the regressor and Tyr attract attention? Chit. what to do
“…impossible.”
“what. Peru? Are you following me?”
Looking back, Peru was crawling out of the hole I had made. I thought you wouldn’t come, but are you coming? It’s good to be safe inside because it’s a unique magic launcher.
“Are you here to help?”
“…I’m here to disturb you.”
“If you’re going to get in the way, why don’t you use a unique magic spell?”
“…there’s no need to do that. They will notice you if you just scream.”
If you think about it, you’re right. what? I know?
I thought it would be empty if Tyr and the regressor drew attention. I thought I could win by planting a flag in Muju Gongsan. I didn’t know that I could afford it.
is not it? It’s empty, but am I too weak to pierce an empty barrel?
“I’m sorry, but I’m not threatening you very much. It’s next to impossible to get in there without getting caught anyway.”
“…If you retreat, shut up.”
“That’s later. After using the last resort.”
Attacking an impregnable castle is foolish. In this case, you have to hide in the wooden horse and get inside. Having made up my mind, I jumped up. As I emerged from the bushes, the tips of the soldiers’ spears were all directed at me.
Very quick response too. I raised both hands to show that I would not resist.
“Wait a minute. I am the messenger who brought the requirements from the other side…”
“Enemy. kill.”
“Wait! It’s against the law to kill someone with a raised hand! You surrendered!”
what is a wooden horse straight up knife I suddenly stepped back, but the soldiers continued to press me over and over again.
“enemy. kill.”
“enemy. kill.”
“enemy. kill.”
Not a single word of reason can be seen in the eyes. The voice is monotonous with no pitch. Could it be that these soldiers are ordinary human homunculus, not modeled after Houju?
Chet. It seems right that the power is concentrated on the regressor and Tyr. I see that there is no hoeju. The problem is that I can’t even pierce a normal homunculus!
The window is gradually approaching. There is nowhere to escape. A tent has already risen behind it, and soldiers are crawling out of it. What kind of tent is a human factory? Humans go to the tent Why do humans come out of the tent?
The situation of a slope where even mind reading does not work. Even if you kill a few people right away, it’s obvious that you will be crushed by the influx of supplies.
But I was prepared for this time. the strongest wooden horse.
I sang my last card.
“Elric! come out! I have something to tell you formally!”
My voice was quickly drowned out in the midst of clashing soldiers’ armor. The only way out is a hole in the ground.
‘…I can’t come out. There’s nothing I can’t save if I give up at this point…’
It was the only time the audience felt sorry for me.
“-Stop.”
A single word of command. The soldiers who touched the voice stopped. A completely different reaction than when I shouted.
The soldiers literally stopped like stone statues. Among them, ‘Elric’ walked slowly through the soldiers.
