Episode 1041 Either die or be killed. (1)
Tang Xiaoxiao was overcome with nausea and covered his mouth with all his might.
‘It’s too much…’
I couldn’t bear to see the scene in front of me. Before holding back the feeling of nausea, it wasn’t easy to hold back the tears that were rising.
Someone tightly grabbed her other hand, not knowing where to go. When I looked up, I saw Yu Yi-seol looking down at Tang So-so with a stern face.
“Accident….”
“….”
As always, Yu Iseol’s expression was expressionless.
But the party was able to find out. That face, which at first glance appears expressionless, is filled with cold anger.
The other five swords were equally shocked.
“execution.”
“….”
Even Yoonjong, who always responded to Jogeol’s words as if it was obvious, was speechless at this moment.
They had clearly seen the Demon Bridge in the North Sea.
I was painfully aware of how fanatical that group was and how cruel they could be. But… it was my first time seeing that cruel scene with my own eyes.
Ugh.
Yoonjong clenched his fists. The knuckles of my fingers were turning white. Red blood spread from his crushed lips.
Jo Geol, who was looking at Yoon Jong like that without knowing what to do, eventually lowered her head, unable to open her mouth any further.
There was so much death here.
The life of a warrior is essentially living at the point of a sword. Although they were so accustomed to death, the death piled up here was too heavy for them to see.
Crash.
Baekcheon changed his teeth. His bloodshot eyes showed how angry he was right now.
“How…”
Baekcheon couldn’t bear to continue speaking and trembled like an aspen. It’s not because I’m afraid. It was because I couldn’t control the anger boiling inside me.
“How could this be…”
Even if all the things seen were living people and not corpses, it would have been a surprising crowd. How can one not be angry when so many people are lying dead in such a miserable state?
But what really drove Baekcheon into unbearable anger was not the number of deaths piled up here.
That is the way of death.
“A person is…”
Baekcheon opened his mouth as if chewing.
“…even when an enemy dies, it is necessary to show the minimum amount of respect.”
Even if it was a war waged by people who were feuding with each other because they could not live in the same world, they would not slaughter people in such a cruel way and leave the bodies unattended.
Unless it is a battlefield where survival is urgent, one must at least show the minimum courtesy of burying the dead.
That’s human and that’s the way to go.
no.
Even if he doesn’t know what to do, he doesn’t want to show the outrageous act he committed openly under the sky.
But there is nothing like that here.
Sympathy, pity, hesitation, even the bare minimum of courtesy towards humans, the last thing that must be observed as human beings, do not exist here.
That fact made Baekcheon unbearable.
Jo Geol muttered inaudibly.
“You’re a human…”
His voice was barely utterable, unlike his always cheerful voice.
“How can a person do something like this to another person? “How…”
Just as everyone was about to become solemn at that voice, a low, chuckling sound was heard.
I looked back to where I heard Jo Geol’s laughter. Jang Il-so was laughing with his mouth covered as if he could not bear it.
Jo Geol, whose fever rose suddenly, growled.
“What… what’s funny?”
“no no.”
Jang Il-so shook his head.
“I thought it was because they were the brats of a political faction that they told funny stories in a serious way.”
“what?”
“It’s not about how people do this.”
Jang Il-so’s face was filled with ghostliness.
“We do this because we are human. “Only people do this.”
“….”
“That’s what it means to be human. Remember it clearly, master.”
Jo Geol’s face was cruelly distorted.
Jo Geol felt like something was pressing her, but she frowned again.
“For saying that, you don’t look good either, do you? why? Doesn’t Sapa get angry when he sees things like this?”
After finishing speaking, he swallowed dry saliva. Although I fired him out of anger, it was still difficult to face that Jang Il-so alone.
However, Jang Il-so’s reaction upon his return was surprisingly calm and calm.
“You’re saying something obvious. “Of course you wouldn’t be angry, would you?”
“…what?”
Jo Geol slightly opened her eyes wide in response. Because I never thought Jang Il-so would give such an answer.
Jang Il-so turned his head and looked at the pile of corpses. The expression on his face was so cold that it was almost chilling.
“I don’t plan on saying something obvious like someone died or something. “People die someday anyway.”
“….”
“The reason I’m angry… is because they were mine.”
Jang Il-so raised his hand and grabbed my face. The two eyes revealed between the fingers gave off a terrifying light.
“Only I have the right to kill those within my territory. But… how dare these dirty bastards who don’t even know where they came from…”
He gritted his teeth while muttering softly.
Then Cheongmyeong glared at him with cold eyes.
“Does it upset your stomach that it was taken away when you probably weren’t interested in it anyway?”
“It’s obvious.”
Jang Il-so glared at Cheongmyeong.
“Just because you don’t like a toy and throws it away doesn’t mean that someone else can break it as they please. “Even if you’re not interested, it’s mine.”
“…You look like a brat.”
“What’s wrong with that?”
There was a sneer in Jang Il-so’s eyes.
“Adults are nothing more than children who are unable to say what they want out of fear of losing face. “I’m just a little more honest about my desires.”
Jang Il-so looked straight at Cheongmyeong and laughed.
“Unlike everyone else.”
Cheongmyeong shook his head. I had no desire to argue with Jang Il-so like this. The scene unfolding just now made his stomach twist.
be used to.
It may have been unfamiliar and shocking to them, but to Cheongmyeong, it was just a familiar sight.
That’s why I felt even worse. It feels like that terrible past has come alive vividly right now.
Baekcheon, who was staring at someone’s delicate hand sticking out from a pile of corpses, looked away as if he couldn’t bear to look at it any longer.
“Don’t look away.”
But at that moment, Cheongmyeong’s cold voice penetrated Baekcheon’s ears.
“This is a world where demonic religions dominate.”
“….”
“It’s just Hangzhou now. But if the Demonic Cult devours the entire central plain, this scene will be seen all over the central plain.”
They also need to know.
Why did they have to fight so desperately?
Why did our ancestors in the past have to sacrifice their lives to stop them without even thinking about what would happen next?
“So we have to stop it here.”
Just as Cheongmyeong was biting his lip, a group of people came quickly towards us from afar.
“execution!”
“…I know.”
The volcano’s disciples watched them with slightly nervous eyes. Even at a glance, it was not a small number… no, it was an incredibly large number.
‘Is it the enemy?’
Everyone instinctively put their hands on their swords.
But at that moment, Mangeumdaebu, who had been silent until now, stepped forward and greeted those approaching.
“See you orb!”
As soon as the distance got closer, several of the leaders of the unfamiliar group knelt down and showed respect to Mangeumdaebu.
“What is the situation?”
“They are still deep in Hangzhou.”
“Right.”
“but.”
“hmm?”
The person reporting raises his head. His eyes were shaking slightly.
“In the past few days, unidentified people have been appearing and joining us one after another. “The number is as much as three hundred water pills.”
Mangeumdaebu’s face hardened.
“three hundred?”
“yes!”
His head began to spin rapidly.
Although it was the bishop’s fault that destroyed the Black Demon Treasure, the spirit of the demon cultists around the bishop was equally unusual.
‘There are three hundred people like that?’
The current situation inside Hangzhou is nothing short of uncertain. So, first of all, under the assumption that there would be a significant number of demonic cultists, all available dark ghost troops were brought in…
“This is unexpected.”
I never thought that additional people would join.
No, if you think about it with a little common sense, it’s natural, right? If they were planning to use this place as a beachhead, recruiting more personnel was a natural step.
Missing that would mean that Mangeumdaebu was unable to maintain his composure.
Mangeum Daebu was a man who was quick at calculating and quick to admit his own mistakes. He scanned the five hundred troops gathered in front of him with his eyes and then looked back at Jang Il-so.
“…I think there’s a problem, Ryeonju.”
“problem?”
“The number of enemies is greater than first estimated.”
“Hmm. so?”
“…I think it would be better to step away now. “This is not an enemy you can just rush into and deal with.”
At those words, Jang Il-so’s eyes drew a strange line.
“This… is a disappointment. “He may have lost an arm, but I never thought that Mangeum would become such a coward.”
“I am so cold as hell right now.”
Godfather Mangeum gritted his teeth and growled.
“Ryeonju can say such exciting things because he has not experienced that monster yet. To be honest, I’m not sure that even if everyone here rushes in, they’ll be able to catch that monster. “If the ‘sword’ that Ryeonju mentioned doesn’t work well, we might get hit again.”
Jang Il-so frowned slightly.
I couldn’t tell if it was because I was disappointed in Mangeum Godfather or because I was taking Mangeum Godfather’s words seriously.
Godfather Mangeum looked straight at Jang Il-so and said.
“You only have one life. Even if we do our best, it will never be enough.”
Jang Il-so was just about to answer that question.
“You’re talking carefree.”
A cold voice covered his mouth. Jang Il-so, with his mouth twitching, looked back at Cheongmyeong.
“What else do you want to say?”
“I still don’t know.”
“….”
“Where is this place? “Who are we dealing with?”
It was that moment.
Jang Il-so’s gaze, which was looking at Cheongmyeong, slowly returned to its original position. The place where his gaze was directed was none other than somewhere beyond the land littered with corpses.
A clear voice rang out.
“Know carefully. “You stupid Sapa bastards.”
A fierce smile spread across his cold face the whole time.
“That is a demonic religion. From the moment you face it, there is only one choice. Either die. Or…”
The young voice, full of life, felt even more ominous. Cheongmyeong looked like an animal full of scars.
“Either kill me.”
Soon, a black group appeared where Jang Il-so was staring.
Demonic fanatics with an ominous energy that made my fingertips tingle were coming.
With deep darkness covering the eastern sky.
