Chapter 556. Genius (天災), Prologue to Gigantomachia (1)
“…what is this!”
“Nonsense.”
“Why are the seals… all broken? What the hell is going on!”
The upper echelons of Olympus fell into panic due to the sudden activation of Gigantomachia.
It feels like I’ve been hit in the head with a hammer.
The worst nightmare imaginable has become a reality, so of course it’s embarrassing.
I considered various variables in this battle… but
I couldn’t even imagine that Gigantomachia would start again.
“…quiet.”
At one word from Zeus, everyone shut their mouths.
Sitting on the throne, Zeus tapped the end of the throne with his finger.
Tok… tok. Took.
An irregular sound followed.
How many minutes did the suffocating silence last?
“What about Tartarus?”
Finally, Zeus opened his mouth.
Hermes hurriedly lowered his head.
“We are still holding on, but it is close. It’s an impossible situation to control because the seal is released and they run rampant like one. Still, the guardians are guarding it, so I think it will be fine for a few days.”
There are only a few days left.
After that, Tartarus collapses.
That meant the beginning of a catastrophe that could destroy all of Olympus.
“Once I know what you mean. If not…”
Just when Zeus was about to speak.
“Koooooo!”
A deafening roar echoed nearby.
Boooooong!
What came up through the clouds was a gigantic hand.
One of the Titans has reached the summit of Olympus.
“Zeus…! And the rest of the idiots are all gathered!”
A pair of yellowish eyes glared at the gods of Olympus.
Enormous mana was concentrated in his hand as if to vent the resentment he had been confined to for so many years.
Titan opened his palm.
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
A terrifying blasting sound hit the eardrum enough to collapse the entire temple.
But right before the palm touches Zeus.
[The holy relic ‘Astrafe’ is activated!]
Blue lightning flashed.
A line ran through the air.
Wow!
“Kuaa!”
The Titan’s body, which was hit directly by the lightning, bounced off as it was.
Soon, smoke billowed from the whole body wrapped in blazing flames.
“I will be on a leash forever in Tartarus. Where do you dare to come up with that filthy body?”
Zeus rose from his seat holding another lightning bolt.
[Zeus wears the ‘Armor of Radiance’.]
[Astrafe’s attack power increases by 200%!]
[Ignores attacks that do not conform to Holy Relics and Unique Holy Lance!]
Much more dense magic.
Pants…!
Blue sparks stretched out around Astrafe.
The Titan’s head was engulfed in a ball of fire.
overwhelming destructive power.
Even if he was a Titan, he didn’t have the ability to withstand more than two direct hits from Astrafe.
Cheeik!
The acrid smell of burnt meat wafted through the air.
“Keuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…”
The staggering Titan crashed down the mountain.
However, despite the one-sided victory, Zeus’ expression was not very good.
One managed somehow.
Two… Can you handle dozens or hundreds?
If even the king of the titans is released, what else should I do then?
All sorts of assumptions deepened the wrinkles between his eyebrows.
“I’m going to come in a hurry. So, is there no solution?”
“…”
“….”
There was no answer.
Everyone was perplexed and just stared.
Zeus scanned the faces of the gods.
“no one?”
“sorry.”
“Except for calling Hercules…”
All of these are answers with no reality.
Zeus’ face was full of annoyance.
If left unattended, the spreading flames would burn all of Olympus.
no, where is that?
He didn’t know that if he made a mistake, he might wipe out his subordinates and allies on other floors.
It means that their place in the entire Tower of Trials will completely disappear.
“The curse I put on the Ring of the Sun doesn’t work properly… Really. I don’t know how everything can get so twisted.”
Breaking the contract with Elise was the most powerful card.
However, as Jinhyeok weakened the curse of the ring by using the zodiac sign, it became impossible to know when the contract would be broken.
It’s like you’ve lost money just by letting the other person buy time.
“Are you saying there isn’t a single person like that around me? It makes sense for the gods who have lived for so many years to be ridiculed by just one human.”
At Zeus’s rebuke, everyone became mute after eating honey.
But at that moment.
Whoops!
A gate appeared in front of the gods.
that buck
It was Athena who broke through the shimmering surface.
The armor, which had been fiercely fought just before, was covered in dust and blood.
“Athena. You are safe.”
“yes. father. Forgive me for being late.”
“What did he do to get things to this point? The key to unlocking Tartarus is hidden somewhere only I know.”
“…I don’t know how I got it, but I had ‘drums’.”
drum…!
In addition to the key, it is a holy relic that can start Gigantomakia.
I hope the name pops up here.
“The more I look at him, the more ridiculous he becomes.”
Zeus pressed his throbbing temple.
Just an ordinary human subject. It didn’t make sense that they had more information than they did.
But even if I regret it, it’s already too late.
The opponent was caught off guard.
The damage has reached unbearable levels.
“Don’t worry too much. father. It is true that the situation is not easy, but the war has only just begun. There are things prepared just in case.”
I admit that I lost a player.
But if you think this victory will last forever.
That is a serious misunderstanding.
“Come out.”
Athena called to those who came with her from beyond the gate.
“The authors…?”
“No way…”
The eyes of Zeus and the rest of the gods narrowed.
⁕⁕⁕
‘Good very good.’
Jinhyeok nodded his head as he saw Olympus turning into a mess.
Kwaaang!
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
“Quaaaaagh!”
“Aagh!”
Screams heard everywhere.
The titans were trampling on the troops of Olympus and trampling on them wherever they came.
It’s like watching a fight between a gorilla and an ant.
To that extent, the large-scale event called Giganto Machia was very hot.
Of course, it will take time to organize everything as there are only a few people.
“I’ll have to wait until the troops run out.”
Ice made from glacial molding was floated on cola and served with fried chicken.
Crispy on the outside and moist on the inside with a unique texture.
It is a top-notch dish made with the famous ‘Golden Feather Hen’ on the 1st floor and ‘Hepamemos Pink Pepper’ on the 12th floor.
In addition, it is accompanied by a blockbuster movie, so it is equipped with the best things to see and eat.
Jinhyeok giggled and bit the chicken leg into his mouth.
“I think about it every time, but you really seem to be no different from the devil.”
Chun Yoo-seong gave an honest review.
“I always think about it, but I think it’s fortunate that I’m on the same side as Jinhyeok.”
“lol. I always listen well. So please…”
Teresa and Andrea also pretended not to do so and cast a spin.
These are real…
Some people are trying to die.
Is it just that you can’t think of it that way?
Now I felt the need to live a more vicious life.
‘By the way… I’ll see the match in three days.’
Jinhyeok’s gaze turned to his right arm.
Awesome…!
Although the progress of the curse was delayed as much as possible with a barrier, the erosion was still in progress.
Three days to feel. If you really push yourself, the seal will be broken within four days. ‘
Of course, if the contract is cut off right away, nothing big will happen, but…
…I couldn’t be certain who would do what at the point the contract was cut off.
“Did Alice just disappear?”
“huh. He complained of a headache with a very dark expression, and then moved south. I tried to chase it, but I missed it. I don’t know if you show yourself. The chance of finding it again is 0.215%. huh.”
Frey nodded.
After Alice disappeared, the fight against Cheonsei was virtually defeated.
It was a painful part to have a big gap in power.
It should be prepared like this.
Because Cheonse was also a gigantic force with power that could not be ignored.
‘Now let’s move slowly.’
Jinhyuk stood up from his seat.
Exactly one hour had passed since the giants started rampaging.
If the timing is right now, Olympus’ power will be properly distributed.
“Where are you planning to go?”
“Um…”
Jinhyeok scratched his chin at Chun Yuseong’s question.
If I had to explain the destination…
“Hell.”
This word would be the most appropriate.
⁕⁕⁕
Tartarus.
Mugane Hell, where the Titans were imprisoned, was the most secret place in Olympus, but also the most dangerous.
A green light torch that lights up a long, dark passageway.
The walls and pillars engraved with various runes were connected so that it was difficult to guess the end.
however.
Strange intruders have entered a ban that should never be known to the outside world.
that buck
Took.
All kinds of defensive magic and shamanic barriers began to be destroyed.
As if he knows where and what traps are.
A group that went deep inside in an instant.
Eventually, the two guardians guarding the interior moved.
“This is a place where access is forbidden even to the gods.”
“But who are you guys?”
A warrior with bristling muscles.
Unusual magic rose from the helmet and shield.
Even at a glance, they are unusual guardians.
It’s not hero grade, it corresponds to the great hero grade.
“I don’t know what that is. We’re a bit tight on time, and it’d be nice to clear the way when we put it on a nice note. If you want your neck to stay attached to your body.”
Jinhyeok shrugged his shoulders and spat out words that were threatening.
“Hoo. Do you mean us?”
“okay. he won’t let go I told you the whole time I was going to change my drink.”
Jinhyeok pushed Cheon Yooseong on the shoulder.
staggering
Chun Yuseong headed forward without realizing it.
“This rotten….”
It was only natural for swear words to come out of his mouth.
However, since he had already drawn his sword, he could not retreat now.
“I’m sorry, but can I leave this here? I really want to help, but I don’t have much time.”
Contrary to what he said, he was already moving with the fact that he was abandoning Cheon Yoo-seong.
“ha. You really… I will definitely ask you about this later.”
“As expected, we are the only swordsmen.”
“I beg you. Yoosung.”
“Yeah. They say so.”
Jinhyeok and the rest of the members passed Chun Yuseong and headed toward the door.
of course.
“It’s ridiculous.”
“Didn’t anyone say you can go in at will?”
The Guardians couldn’t stand to watch it.
The spear held like lightning headed for Jinhyuk’s side.
right at that moment.
Kaaang!
Two spears ricocheted off with the difference of a sheet of paper.
[Cheon Yoo-seong activates his unique ability ‘Sword Song’!]
Smooth sword dance from a stable posture.
The Sword Master’s sword, which had been repeated thousands and tens of thousands of times, took its perfect form.
“It’s annoying to mess around, but it’s because I’m the type of person who handles tasks properly.”
The melody that echoed along the tip of the sword soon began to materialize a world of imagination.
[The unique vocal lance ‘White Night’ is activated!]
A world where day and night merge into one.
Chun Yoo-seong’s unique holy spear spread out in front of the two guardians.
