Episode 941 Did you even expect it? (6)
Sigh!
The battle ship cut through the water. The pure white foam created by the rapid maneuver and acceleration was instantly coloring the Yangtze River white.
It was literally a spectacle to see dozens of huge battle ships turning their bows and pushing in at the same time.
No, the word minister may not be appropriate. For the Namgung family in Maehwa Island, that scene was ‘horror’ itself.
“Ah…”
The enemy is approaching. Those who use the name of Namgung have never feared enemies. Instead, they cheered.
But what appeared in their eyes now was despair, not fighting spirit.
I have never once imagined a situation where you fall into despair and lose confidence that you cannot win, not because the enemy is strong, but because you are not in perfect condition.
None of them knew.
How terrible war can be.
This means that situations like this where each other is at their best and overcoming an enemy that is difficult to overcome with their current skills through consultation and perseverance only appear in stories.
“Wake up!”
At that moment, a loud shout came out of the Nangong Emperor’s mouth.
“Don’t forget! It won’t be me or my colleagues standing behind you who will see your last appearance! “Those very enemies will see your last sight!”
That voice pierced everyone’s ears painfully.
“Don’t make them remember that Namgung Se’s last appearance was helpless and scared! The last thing you must keep is the reverence your enemy shows you!”
Did it work?
I can not know. However, what was certain was that the moment the words to stand up came from the mouth of the Emperor Namgung, the swordsmen of the Namgung family, who had collapsed from exhaustion, were somehow standing up.
“Wouldn’t it have been better! The enemy is coming. Now there are people to cut down with that sword. Smile! Let’s prove that Namgung’s sword shows its true power only when facing the enemy!”
It was truly a voice filled with evil.
That was the moment when Emperor Namgung made his final determination to fight. Some of the boats approaching the island turned sharply to the side.
“Huh?”
Kwaaaaaaaaaa!
And before the ship’s turn was even finished, the artillery fire flew into Maehwa Island. The intention is not to aim accurately and hit. It was an attack that was good if it hit, but it was okay even if it didn’t. The intention is to break the morale of this side and distract them.
However, even the bombardment fired without expectations could not help but be a great threat to the Namgung family, who were pushed to their limits.
Kwaaaaang! Kwaaaaaaaa!
Artillery fire rained down all over the island.
The clearest sky. The pouring shells that dotted the sky and the dust rising as a result forced a sense of reality into my otherwise blurry mind.
“Tsk.”
The swordsmen of the Namgung family gritted their teeth and raised their swords again.
That is correct.
A warrior proves his life by how he dies.
They know it too. The odds of them surviving this battle were slim. So shouldn’t we prove our lives this last time?
Quang! Kwaaaaang!
The bombardment continued, but the eyes of the Namgungse inspectors became even more calm.
The moment that ship arrives at this shore is the beginning!
All the swordsmen of Namgung looked at the approaching ship and began to take a deep breath and strengthen their resolve. But at that moment.
Paaaaat!
Before I could fully prepare my mind, dozens of water droplets rose up with spray from the surface of the water facing the island.
“What!”
“Oh here it comes! Damn it!”
The enemies, who were caught off guard, rushed forward with all their might without even shouting.
The Black Dragon King was indeed an expert. As if the Namgung family would not give them time to strengthen their fighting spirit, they quickly launched an attack team to Maehwa Island.
Paaaaat!
Just looking at the speed of the rush, it was clear that these were not just ordinary enemies.
The enemies, with complexions as hard as iron armor, came right in front of us, giving off a force colder than the ice of the North Sea.
“Changgung Sword Team! “Stay ahead!”
“yes!”
Training engraved in the body is effective in any situation. Although he was a Changgung member facing physical limitations, his feet moved first the moment the Great Lord’s command was given.
The Changgung Sword Team quickly moved to the front and formed a battle line.
If Qingming had seen this scene, he would have nodded his head at once. The power of a prestigious family is not proven by a young sword at the tip of a sword. It is the will that proves its history and name.
The current Namgung family is proving with its will that the name it has built up over the years is by no means an illusion.
Kwaaaaaaaa!
The shelling did not stop either.
In the middle of the battlefield heated up with cannonballs, Namgung’s Changgung Swords and Surochae’s Black Dragons collided head-on.
Kagang!
The sword and the sword and the harpoon collided and sparks flew out.
It’s different from before. The battles that have continued so far have been fought knowing that each other is behind us. Surochae had no intention of pushing Namgung to the end, and Namgung was aware that the enemy would not completely suffocate them.
But it’s different now.
What remains is the annihilation of one side or the other.
It’s an all-out battle that will never end until one side dies.
Ga-ga-ga-ga-gak!
His arm, with its bristling tendons, pushed the weapon. It was a sight that showed the will not to be pushed back even an inch.
Originally, those who should have been pushed out were of course the Black Dragon.
Changgung sword belt. Those who use that name are the elite of the elite of Namgung. Could it be that the swords of those who led the Changcheon Namgung family were light?
but.
Let’s go!
“Ugh….”
As the standoff continued, it was Namgung’s sword that was pushed further and further back.
As if to prove that no matter how strong your will is, you cannot ultimately overcome the limits of your body, Surochae’s sword and harpoon began to push away Namgung’s sword.
“Kaaaaaaak!”
“Aaaah!”
Tao, who gained victory, cruelly tore apart his weak body.
Blood spattered everywhere and shrill screams spread out. However, even when the harpoon pierced his stomach and his shoulder was split by the sword, the Changgung Sword Master did not easily back down.
This is because you know without anyone shouting.
That this is where they must die.
“Don’t fuss!”
One of the spear archers let out a desperate shout and swung his sword.
Paaaaat!
The sword flew like a beam of light and pierced the neck of the enemy who was charging from the front.
“Kruk!”
The sword dug into the front of the neck and stuck out through the back of the head. Sujeok looked down at the sword stuck in his neck and trembled in disbelief.
“Nothing like numbers….”
Phew!
But at that moment.
The harpoon of the person whose neck was pierced penetrated into the lower abdomen of the spear archer who was caught off guard for a moment.
A sound of wind coming out of the Changgung member’s mouth. Although their will may be strong, they are still infants with little battlefield experience. They overlooked the very obvious fact that one must not let one’s guard down until the other person’s breath is completely gone.
“Pfft….”
Paaaaat!
At that time, a sword flew in from behind and hit the head of the Changgung member who was twisting his body. With both eyes wide open, the neck rose and spun in the air.
“Wow Gwangya!”
“Namgoonggwaaaaaang!”
Sega is extremely strong.
Unlike sects, where unrelated people gather together and share a common value, Sega members grow up together from an early age.
In other words, the shock received when someone is sacrificed is incomparable to that of a normal sect.
The head of the man who was a brother to some, an older brother to others, and a son to others rose into the air, and tears of blood began to flow from the hearts of those who had to see the scene clearly with their own eyes.
“You bastards!”
“Aaaaaah!”
As hatred and anger expand, consensus and courage disappear on the battlefield.
So all that remains is the blatant hostility that will absolutely tear those in front of them to pieces.
The gently embellished stories meant to instill dreams in those growing up with swords were completely torn down, and the true face of the battlefield began to be revealed.
A victory achieved by sacrificing one’s son’s head.
The honor of being given a brother’s heart as a sacrifice.
Who talks about sacrifice?
Who talks about sadness?
There is no praise given to those who have died. Glory belongs entirely to the living.
Someone had to know. Who shed blood behind that glory? In fact, behind all the glory, there are many forgotten deaths.
But unfortunately, the people standing here were just buried in hostility, fear and hatred, and they just rushed at the enemy in front of them.
“I’m dying!”
“Aaaahhh!”
The Changgung swordsman, whose eyes were dyed red, swung his sword at the enemies with a scowl.
It was a fierce rebellion. The amount of sword energy poured out was so extreme that it was unbelievable that it came from people who were completely exhausted.
But the Black Dragon was not embarrassed.
A cornered mouse will bite a cat. But would a cat die from being bitten by a rat? I already expected that my opponent would resist fiercely. The important thing is to completely corner the enemy.
Unlike the initial fearsome charge, the Black Dragons loosened the reins of their attack. Take your time and never rush.
Coo! Coo!
At that time, the eerie sound of a ship advancing toward Maehwado crashing into a sandbank and anchoring rang out.
yet.
The Black Dragon Ship, a huge ship made entirely of black, symbolizing the Black Dragon King, finally arrived at Maehwa Island.
Kwaaaaang!
That loud sound pierced everyone’s ears.
It was a loud noise that made me doubt whether the ship could be safe even after docking at that speed. But the ripple effect of that roar was definitely great.
The body of Namgung Se-ga, who had confirmed with his ears rather than his eyes that the enemy’s main force had arrived, suddenly shrunk.
Coo!
After a while, someone slowly appeared as the player of the Black Dragon Ship.
A physique so majestic that it can make people feel intimidated.
A black beard reminiscent of Guan Yu.
A tree like the eyes of a tiger.
A person who makes those who watch him cringe not only by his skills but also by his appearance has revealed his majesty.
“Those bug-like guys…”
The Black Dragon King, who had finally entered Maehwa Island, looked down at the Namgung family and bared his teeth.
“Turn all those who dare to oppose me on this Yangtze River into fish food!”
“Jonmyeong!”
As soon as the number of people died, enemy forces began to pour in like a swarm of ants from the battle ships docked.
It was a sight that took my breath away.
Enemies were pouring into the island endlessly, both on the ships that occupied all four sides of the island and in the water.
“Black dragon waaaaaaaa!”
Emperor Nangong roared like a lion’s hooter.
“The Emperor’s Sword.”
But the Black Dragon King only twitched the corner of his mouth when he heard that sound. Emperor Nangong shouted, his eyes red with hatred fixed on him.
“If you are an unmanned person, come forward! “You must have the courage to decide the match you couldn’t win!”
“You’re still a fool, Prince Namgung.”
The Black Dragon King let out a blatant sneer.
“Did you really think you were qualified to compete with me?”
“This….”
“Struggle there with all your might and die. “I will watch your final moments clearly with these two eyes!”
“Black dragon waaaaaa!”
“Kill it.”
The enemy began to rush towards the bleeding big fish. As if they were going to eat all the flesh without leaving a single piece of it behind.
