Episode 226. Dreamy Paradise Lost (3)
Kukukukuku!
A black haze rose along T-Bone’s body.
Magical power equipped with an older brother.
The sense of intimidation emitted by the top-notch Death Knight was completely different.
The insects staggered and stepped back.
As expected, ‘Judgment of Anubis’, which was completely activated without paying attention to the Egyptians, can only be called fraud.
It was because he could feel how strong T-Bone had become just by the magic transmitted through his skin.
“Give me an order, Master.”
“Crush the white jade.”
“All right.”
As soon as the order was given, T-Bone’s model disappeared.
“Kuk!”
Sensing a sense of crisis, Tangrasil gathered a lot of mana.
A green haze erupted from the white jade at the top of the white tree.
It was a nerve substance that paralyzed the nervous system so that it could only focus on killing enemies in front of it.
“Keye!”
“Keeck!”
Immediately, tree trunks and insects rushed like bees.
[T-Bone activates his unique ability ‘False Oath’!]
The unique ability ‘False Oath’ that only a few Death Knights can manifest.
The sword and shield were all stained black.
What followed was a breakthrough that seemed to have moved the storm as it was.
Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah!
As T-Bone swung his sword, the Hercules beetle was split in half with a single blow.
“Kieek!”
The black sand centipede as well as the giant beetle.
“Keeck!”
Whatever it touched could not withstand T-Bone’s sword Aura Blade.
The corpses of the worms that had been cut into pieces rolled across the floor.
A road made in an instant.
The branches of Tangrasil trembled.
“Oh, Ograkun…! What the hell is Ograkun doing! Come now. Come here now and protect me!”
Feeling threatened for his life, Tangrasil let out a long roar.
He asked for help from the giants in the citadel.
OK.
Part of the barrier opened, revealing the connection between Paradise Lost and the outside world.
[The 12-star barrier will be dismantled!]
Finally, there is a hole in the impenetrable castle wall.
‘It’s going to be a race against time.’
Jinhyuk’s eyes narrowed.
Until now, if the battle with Tangrasil was the main stage in Paradise Lost.
From now on, he had to factor in the attacks of the giants.
‘I asked for help, so I’ll need at least 10 minutes to get here.’
10 minutes. 10 minutes…
that’s enough.
“T-Bone!”
Jinhyuk raised his voice.
T-Bone must have realized the meaning of that call and immediately activated a new skill.
[T-Bone summons a ‘Ghost Warhorse’!]
A horse appeared with its whole body wrapped in translucent armor.
“Hee-yi-ing!”
Mounted on the green ghost warhorse, T-Bone accelerated.
It was difficult to block it in the first place, but as the acceleration and impact were added due to the ghost warhorse, I couldn’t even stand in front of it.
now it’s right in front of you
There were only a few steps left before the sword shattered the white jade.
But just then
creepy
A cool sensation ran down Jinhyuk’s back.
There is something.
I could feel someone staring at me from the side other than Tangrasil.
“…!”
My body reacted faster than I thought.
A skewer made of raw poison flew in the direction of the gaze.
Quaang!
However, the thorns did not penetrate the target.
Instead, it was offset by something and crumbled as it is.
I hope that guy
“How the hell…”
“You’re a very quick-tempered person.”
Undoubtedly.
At the edge of Paradise Lost stood Ograkun, the king of giants.
＊＊＊
“Master!”
An abnormality also occurred on the T-Bone side.
Five giants came in between Tangrasil and Ti-Bone.
“Don’t sell your eyes. Undead.”
“Your opponent is us!”
Black axes and clubs took T-Bone’s sword.
They were weapons made to withstand the aura, just like the ones seen in the capital of the empire.
The total number is twelve.
It’s no accident that they intervened here, given the timing and location of their appearance.
‘Did they dig a trap?’
Jinhyeok quickly activated ‘Eye of Gluttony’.
[Ograkun]
Race: Giant
Age: 133
Level: 80
Strength 114 Agility 48 Stamina 75 Horsepower 7
Inherent Ability: Berserker
Skill: Lv15 ‘Leader of the Lord’ Lv14 ‘Lightweight Weapon’ Lv14 ‘Weapon Master’ Lv14 ‘Tough Endurance’ Lv13 ‘ ‘Strategy’
Features: Ogra’kun is relatively intelligent even among giants, and is a well-rounded lord with a lot of combat experience. It’s a rational personality that knows how to perfectly weigh the gains and losses of interests, so if you understand that point well, you may be able to avoid a fight unexpectedly.
[Copy Conditions: Giants revere strength and physical beauty. While undressing as much as possible, hit the opponent with only ‘power’ (the area of the clothing and the increase in strength are inversely proportional). You will be able to do it.]
Ograkun, the king of giants.
This giant, which reached about 4m, had a body that was too shabby for the giants who revere its size.
In fact, the giant Jinhyeok lured to enter this fortress also reached a height of 7m.
Even so, the reason why Ograkun subdued countless giants and reigned on the throne…
was because he possessed such overwhelming power.
Suk…
Ograkun lightly lifted the greatsword that was leaning on his shoulder.
The sword approaching his height drew an arc gently.
“You look like you don’t understand why I’m already here.”
“It’s been less than a minute since Tangrasil asked for help.”
“Yes. If it was normal, the white jade would have been shattered and the tangrasil would have been annihilated. The fight would have ended with your victory.”
but.
“Since the scout went missing, I already expected that the intruder would be aiming for Paradise Lost. Of course, I didn’t expect that the intruder was strong enough to weaken the barrier.”
“This one… You ate a good shot. But will it be okay? If you lead the main force and come here. The remaining ones won’t be able to block the combined attack of the Empire and Murim, right?”
The departure of core forces could soon lead to the collapse of the whole.
You’d better go back before it’s too late.
Unless you want to lose the citadel altogether.
but.
There was still no sign of agitation on Ogra’kun’s face.
Rather, he calmly scratched his cheek.
“The wall has already been abandoned. Perhaps, in a little while, some of the troops sent from both the Empire and Murim will reach this point.”
“I…are you out of your mind? You gave up on the wall on purpose?”
such nonsense.
What crazy commander would give up his only advantage?
Jinhyuk frowned at his incomprehensible behavior.
“What else can’t be done? If we weaken the boundaries of the fortress wall on our own, the Empire and Moorim will finally decide that we can attack the fortress. That’s what I want.”
…The two forces that were at odds with each other make achievement of their goal a foregone fact.
As the thoughts continued to that point, something passed through Jinhyeok’s mind.
“Are you going to make each other fight for possession of this place?”
The top priority is attacking the fort.
And the second priority is which side has the fort.
Of course, both of them had no reason to give up their base, so it must have been an established fact that they would both point their swords at each other.
That was exactly what Ograkun was aiming for.
“Looking at the fact that the main force that came here is smaller than expected, it seems that they have prepared a separate unit as well. They must be aiming for supply, focusing on other races who are dissatisfied with the Empire or Murim.”
“Huh? Did you even notice that?”
Ograkun’s eyes flashed.
“No matter how many detached units there are, it’s not enough to annihilate the enemy’s main force. To win a complete victory, the enemy’s rear… Rather, it’s clear that they’re aiming for supplies.”
“Hmm. I think it would have been a much more fun fight if you had led one of the two factions.”
“Well. If I were the commander-in-chief, this place would have already turned into a sea of fire?”
“It could have been. But, this time it’s like I fell for it.”
okay.
At first glance, this is a very neat strategy.
A plan to cut off the supply route by keeping the two powers off guard at the same time while protecting Paradise Lost.
Even if you stay still in the fortress, you have no choice but to win by itself.
By the way.
“Do you know that your current plan is feasible when one major premise is supported?”
“What premise are you talking about?”
“The main premise is that you and the troops here must defend Tangrasil. If that doesn’t work, everything will be nothing.”
“Haha. So. You might not be able to stop one… Are you saying this?”
A whimper escaped Ogra’kun’s mouth.
It’s normal to be ridiculous.
It was true that the Death Knight and the ghost warhorse that had been rampaging a while ago were threatening.
That’s the story of how long it lasted.
After the time limit has passed, T-Bone has already lost its dignity as a Death Knight.
Only Jinhyeok was left.
If it’s not easy even with a legion, what on earth can only one person do?
but.
There was one thing Ogra’kun didn’t know.
Rather than gathering the power of one force.
“There is a good chance of winning. As long as the barrier is dismantled, I won’t have to worry about losing my magic anymore.”
The fact that one person can wield a greater influence.
[Lv5 ‘claws that cover the moon’ are manifested!]
In Jinhyeok’s left hand, strong energy reminiscent of beast’s claws gushed out.
[Inherent ability ‘Colossus Strike’ is activated!]
The energy of the giant’s soul dwelled in his right hand.
There.
When the ‘White Beast’ obtained from the ‘Caracal’ of the Frost Blade tribe was overlaid, indescribable heat shone.
dreaming
Ograkun’s eyebrows curled in reverse.
“That power…”
The opponent is a human.
Compared to giants, they are small creatures with no value in comparison.
In other words, it is a weak existence that can even pull out the spinal cord with a single blow.
And yet… what the hell. this oppressive feeling.
It’s like facing Taesan.
Ogra’kun’s instincts began to send out the highest alert.
Dangerous.
If we don’t fight with all our might…
…Rather, it could be this side that suffers.
‘It won’t be easy.’
Ogra’kun grabbed the greatsword with both hands.
Still, with this much power, I’ll be able to deal with it somehow.
It was because he had the unique ability ‘Berserker’ that could manifest the will of a berserker.
But the moment you see the scene that follows.
“omg…!”
Ogra’kun could not help but realize that all assumptions about winning were meaningless.
＊＊＊
Convergence.
It is a unique ability that allows you to collect the copied opponent’s skills and reach a higher level.
Jinhyeok’s hands combined the energy into one.
Then right at that moment.
[Trait ability ‘Colossal Strike’ and skill ‘Claws that Cover the Moon’ and unique ability ‘White Beast’ are fused!] Didn’t I
tell you to obediently press with force only?
If so, let me do that.
The condition that the 3 abilities obtained from the monster must be fused, and that the fusion is possible only when the appropriate ‘copy condition’ is met.
As much as the extreme level of difficulty was required, the result was also guaranteed.
[You have succeeded in obtaining the right arm of the giant god ‘Tombgrave’!]
[Copied unique ability is stored in ‘Memory of the World’.]
The dazzling brilliance flickered and Paradise Lost was swallowed up by a huge light.
Woo woo woo!
and after a while
When the sight returned…
Jinhyeok’s arm had changed.
No, it wasn’t just the appearance that changed.
