Episode 189 [Last Junction – 2]
—————————
Lee Hyun-wook raised his head and looked at the black gate about twenty meters in the sky. saw.
It was slowly expanding its area like boiling sticky tar.
We will soon be welcoming the third dimension shifter.
And as far as he knows, he is the worst opponent….
– Chick – Changes the key targets of all units to UDD (Unknown dimensional distortion).
– I focus on covering the healer Steele Rain before waiting for the sniper to fire.
ROK AMT transmissions were heard one after another from his Mana Messenger.
Other players did not know the exact truth of the phenomenon, but as expected, they were very nervous and preparing for battle.
Also, the whole world would be watching this scene…
Not a single one of them would know what the situation was, but they would have an intuition that Lee Hyun-wook’s fight would have a great impact on their fate.
Lee Hyun-wook gave them an order.
“Ah, this is Lee Hyun-wook.”
The whole place became quiet at the sound of his voice.
“Don’t come around here, everyone, stay back. And please pass this on to all your players. “No one should step forward hastily.”
This moment was more important than ever.
‘If you make a mistake, everything will be ruined at once. That’s how powerful the necromancer was in his previous life…’
Therefore, he could not allow even a single variable, and he planned to block even the hasty attacks of his allies.
And since those who were thought to be allies could have taken off their masks and jumped into this battle under the name of villains, any unnecessary movement was blocked.
‘This moment will be the best opportunity to eliminate him.’
Based on his past experience, Lee Hyun-wook knew the moment when dimension shifters were most incapacitated.
That was right after passing through the gate.
‘I had just escaped from the place where death came, and I was helpless and had no choice but to take a hit.’
At that moment, it was a shame because his defense was much higher than the enemies expected, otherwise he would have died in one hit and been torn to pieces by a pack of werewolves.
Anyway, Lee Hyun-wook began to prepare to send the necromancer in a single strike, calculating all possible cases.
‘…But as far as I know, the necromancer has never once allowed himself to be hit.’
Numerous past experiences passed through his mind like a panorama.
‘Not once…’
In the first place, it was difficult to break through the Necromancer’s undead army, but this was because the Necromancer’s own protective measures were truly the strongest.
He was always wearing multiple personal magic shields, and his MAX level bone armor skill was also quite strong.
‘But… it would be different if it were a holy sword. That is, if it is the Moghlay holy sword.’
And then—
ugh——
Black Gate was finally completed.
The area near its center began to tremble, wriggled a little more violently, and then shook violently as if it might explode at any moment.
Chuuuu——
A doll jumped out from there.
Go—oh—oh—oh——
A being with a dark green aura all over its body…
– Quasi-transcendent (unknown)
“Ha—”
The moment Lee Hyun-wook saw the guy’s appearance, he couldn’t breathe without even realizing it. I felt it. It felt like an old, forgotten trauma had recurred.
‘That black robe, a huge scythe floating behind the skull mask…’
That guy was the necromancer, the strongest weapon of the villain who conquered the whole world and in fact the strongest player.
Lee Hyun-wook slowly raised his left hand towards the guy.
But…
“Huh?”
The moment Lee Hyun-wook caught sight of the items he was holding in each hand, he couldn’t help but sigh.
“Damn that…”
The spear and shield he is holding are none other than…
‘…Achilles’ armor set!’
If you wear two items at once, you can obtain the ‘Blessing of the River Styx’, which makes you invincible for 30 seconds.
In other words, we came out with more solid preparations than anything else.
No damage can be done for 30 seconds from now!
“—Everyone make sure he doesn’t escape!”
The moment Lee Hyun-wook shouted that, black smoke spread out from behind the guy and started to spread in an instant like sea fog, encroaching on the ground. Tsutsutsutsu— Fortunately, the ‘realm of sacred trees’ that
Lee
Hyun-wook had laid out everywhere. ‘Thanks to this, the area was filled with divine power and the black fog was partially diluted.
‘But that was only a favorable environment and its actions could not be completely sealed.’
– Caution! A ‘Great Necropolis’ will begin in the area.
It was a technique to place the undead army in a unique pocket space and
then take them out. Soon, remnants of certain shapes began to emerge one by one from within the black smoke, and their green eye glow These lights lit up one by one, reminiscent of the Milky Way.
Tsutsutsutsu——
That phenomenon meant that ‘space overlap’ had occurred… and signified the departure ceremony of the legion that had been sleeping in another space.
Immediately after, the undead that were spread across the overlapped space. They poured down like a landslide.
After falling to the ground, they kicked off the ground, stood up, spread out in all directions, and at certain points began to tangle with each other and build a ‘wall.’ If you look at the sky from afar, it looks like a swarm of ants
. It almost looked like,
‘That’s a necromancer-style defense formation.’
The so-called Wall of Corpses….
Rattling- Rattling-
’22 seconds, 21 seconds…’
Lee Hyun-wook counted the time until the end of the River Styx’s blessing time and came up with a way to break down that barrier
. What he was holding was ‘Sudasanar’.
This disc-shaped throwing weapon had the characteristic of spewing out chakra waves and cutting through a fairly large area like a saw blade.
In other words, it was by far the most efficient when dealing with multiple enemies.
Lee Hyun-wook used it as a ‘holy sword’ . ‘ The effect was transferred, and at the same time, it shot out and passed through the bone barrier.
Quad-dead——!
In just a few seconds, with just one swipe, more than a hundred undead were reduced to ashes and disappeared.
‘This was possible . .’
That scene was even emotional for Lee Hyun-wook.
Every time he bumped into a guy from his previous life, the undead army that wouldn’t die no matter how many times he killed him was disgusting and scary. But now, it felt easier than I thought. ‘As expected, if you have a holy sword, you can neutralize him
. ‘
If I kept pushing it like this, I could tear down that bone wall and hit him the moment the blessing of the River of Styx ended.
“Eleven seconds—”
But then—
Per—uh—uh—uh——!
The whole world suddenly turned red.
My ears were deafened by the explosion that made the air scream. At the same time, a hot breeze hit my skin.
“—Tsk!”
Lee Hyun-wook lowered his posture, gathered the adamant around him, sculpted a metal wall to cover his body, and looked down at this place through Hugin.
Per—uh—uh—uh——!
Red flames filled the inside of the giant’s fortress and were blooming overflowing.
‘…It’s an explosion of corpses.’
It wasn’t just a corpse explosion either. It was made using the corpses of Titans lying around.
They were soaked in holy water so they couldn’t be revived as undead, but they were still ‘corpses’ and could be exploded.
Previously, the current Necromancer also used Titan Corpse Explosion.
But at that time there were only a few. This was because the amount of mana needed to turn such a huge corpse into a bomb was absolutely not small.
However, a necromancer eight years later would be able to use that much mana without any problem.
However, now was not the time to worry about our troops’ damage.
‘Now it’s only 4 seconds!’
All you have to do is insert one correct shot after 4 seconds.
Then everything ends.
Lee Hyun-wook, with his eyes wide open, chased after the queen ant—the necromancer—who was hiding among the undead teeming with ants, and saw that the bastard was taking out a bead.
And there were some talismans attached to that bead, but the moment he ripped it off—
– Caution! ‘Hundred Ghosts’ begins in the area.
This was a skill that Hyunwook Lee didn’t know about either.
From within the bead, an innumerable number of ghosts began to rise like smoke and scatter in all directions.
Kieeeee——
“Ugh!”
“Pfft!”
A surreal tone that seemed to go beyond the eardrums and pierce the brain and heart covered the entire world, and almost all the players in the area complained of pain.
Before their eyes, a system message was appearing indicating that they were suffering from various ‘debuffs’.
“Damn, isn’t this a scam that I can apply a debuff even when I’m this far away?”
“Uh-uh—be careful! “They come this way!”
The ghosts began to visit and attach themselves to the players as if they sensed a living being, and even touching them caused them to fall into an even greater curse.
“—Ugh! Take this off me!”
“What are you doing priests? “Do something!”
Many of the player’s units that were preparing to support Lee Hyun-wook in the rear were immediately neutralized.
‘It’s a ridiculous wide-area curse.’
In this way, the Necromancer was like a god of war who could control the entire battlefield to his liking.
‘But it doesn’t work for me.’
Still, Lee Hyun-wook was fine.
Keeeee——
The most ghosts were attached to him, but they were startled by the divine power rising from his body and scattered to all directions.
Because he was now the ‘Great Warrior of Light’, he had perfect resistance to most dark curses.
However, because they obscured my vision, I lost sight of the necromancer.
‘Fuck that’s not good. If you do this, you won’t know what he’s up to.’
As expected, it was an opponent on a different level.
But then—
-Chick— Leave those to me.
This voice was Emilia Müller.
yes-!
Then, a ray of light soared through the sky, condensed into a single point, and then split into several branches, covering the ground with white light.
It was ‘Holy Light’, the most basic skill of the divine series, but its scale was extraordinary as the saintess put all her effort into it.
It was as if the sun had come closer, and it was so bright that I couldn’t look straight at it—
Chi——!
All ghosts that touched it were instantly extinguished.
It was such a refreshing blow that I wondered if it would be exactly like this if we were to depict a scene where bacteria are disinfected by sunlight during sun drying.
Soon, his vision cleared again and the necromancer’s appearance came into view again, and Lee Hyun-wook caught the necromancer’s mouth twitching.
‘That expression… funny.’
Even such trivial emotions came as a strange joy to Lee Hyun-wook.
“…So, I guess you didn’t expect that the saint was alive?”
Unlike other dimension movers up to now, he was the one who showed off the ‘Armless of Achilles’ set even at the moment of crossing the Black Gate, but it seemed like he couldn’t even keep the existence of the saint in mind.
In the past life, the saint had already been assassinated before he began his activities in earnest.
In other words, the saint barely existed in his memories.
‘This world I created is not a favorable stage for him.’
Lee Hyun-wook exhaled slowly, gave the holy sword to Moglei again, and began zero-aiming.
‘…I failed to hit it as soon as it appeared, but that doesn’t mean I should be hasty. Aiming for one last shot.’
He suppressed his impatience and focused all his senses on the necromancer as if he were a sniper.
But… Lee Hyun-wook looked at the guy’s face and saw that the guy was muttering something.
“What are you saying all of a sudden?”
He concentrated a little more and read the shape of the guy’s mouth.
– …I’m ruined. What should I do now?
Isn’t it a little strange that he’s speaking as if he’s asking someone?
– Just let it all out. Shall we fight head-on?
That didn’t seem to be an illusion. He was really talking to someone, but seeing him begging politely, it didn’t seem like he was speaking to his superiors, but rather to his subordinates. ‘Then I guess… there’s someone else out there
. ‘Is it?’
However, there were no other beings in Lee Hyun-wook’s senses. And wasn’t the dimension shifter an event that was set up to only allow that ‘person’ to come across in the first place? ‘
But there may be something I didn’t expect.’
However, right now, focusing only on the necromancer was not enough.
Lee Hyun-wook just distributed some of his attention to the surroundings, prepared for any unexpected situation, and then began to find a corner to put the Mogley back in. ‘It’s still
not enough. A little more space is needed.’ do.’
Lee Hyun-wook tried to create space by pouring out metal weapons and advancing the mercenary soldiers. At
that moment, the bastard started waving his hands.
Qua—de—de—de——!
Then, hundreds of undead turned into a pile of ashes and fell on the undead. It was absorbed into the body, and its body began to turn into black smoke as if sublimated.
Lee Hyun-wook knew what that was.
Also known as ‘Twilight Flower (黃昏化)’, sacrificing hundreds of undead to turn his body into an intangible form to hinder it. It was a powerful movement technique that was difficult to perform.
Huuuu——
Immediately afterwards, the guy’s body turned into a whirlwind of black smoke and soared into the sky.
But Lee Hyun-wook was still impatient.
‘Yes, I knew you would do that.’
He took out a weapon as if he had been waiting.
It was ‘Mjolnir.’
Lee Hyun-wook gave it the effect of a holy sword.
Then, he took out a small gem and held it against it…
– [Blessing of Thoth] The ‘skill cooldown time’ is reset.
This is a very valuable consumable item that forcibly resets the cooldown time of the item, so I stocked up on a few of them before the battle.
This allows me to use the ‘Rain God’s Wrath’ skill, which had to wait for 12 hours, again. It can now be used.
Rumble——
Soon, lightning filled with sacred power began to spread from within the dark clouds that filled the sky.
Park Jun-mo! Spread that all out like a net!”
“Yes, I understand!”
From somewhere, Park Jun-mo responded to Lee Hyun-wook’s words.
Soon, the Thunder God’s anger poured out onto the ground, and under Park Jun-mo’s command, it was divided into thin pieces and scattered in all directions.
And just as Lee Hyun-wook wanted, it spread out like a net and completely covered the sky.
Pa—ja—ja—ja——!
Nothing could be faster than the speed of light.
The same was true for a line of black smoke rising into the sky in the distance.
It was—the necromancer was wrapped in a blue electric current and began to slowly slow down.
“Ugh……”
In the end, the guy couldn’t hold out and returned to his original body.
Perhaps the electric shock just now was the first damage the necromancer had suffered.
“Yeah, it’s an unfamiliar feeling, isn’t it?”
In this way, Lee Hyun-wook knew all of the necromancer’s combat patterns and was blocking the necromancer’s every new attempt.
But the guy did not give up.
This time, he opened the ‘Grand Order’ and killed all kinds of flying undead, including bone wyverns, zombies, and griffins that had been ossified. He summoned everything and surrounded the body.
‘But you don’t take out the dragon?’
As far as Lee Hyun-wook knows, the most powerful beings among the undead that the necromancer handles have not appeared.
‘I am sparing the high-ranking undead because I am wary of the power of my holy sword.’
That meant that he had no intention of engaging in a full-scale battle here and that his main goal was to escape.
‘But that’s a mistake. They alone won’t be able to block my attack…’
Lee Hyun-wook’s left hand rose to the sky.
He We detected a ‘war box’ floating in low-orbit in the distance and succeeded in activating it.
And a flash of light struck.
It was a 2-ton Mowglei replica , and it divided the world.
He completely destroyed the flying undead surrounding the necromancer and struck his body.
At that split-second, Lee Hyun
– wook observed the necromancer’s appearance precisely through Hugin.
‘… After all, dropping 2 tons of Mowgli is not enough.’
Even if the holy sword was given to him, it bounced off the impact and landed somewhere on Mount Othrys, but it did not cause any actual damage. Because the
shield surrounding its body is not the power of darkness, but the power of ‘Dragon Heart’. That power was coming from the red gem on the necklace he was wearing.
‘That’s what Edward Woods had. It looks like England was eventually conquered after my death.’
Until the point when Lee Hyeon-wook met his end, England was preventing the villain’s invasion, but it could be seen as a light in the face of a typhoon. In any case,
that magic shield could not be broken by the power of the Holy Sword.
‘But if you keep hitting it, it will eventually break.’
Lee Hyun-wook had more than enough firepower.
He entered another command into the ‘war box.’
“I’ll make it clear that this is a place where you can’t run wild—”
Right after—
hoo—!
At the same time as another Mowglai fell to the spot where it was, ‘Shock Wave’ and ‘Flare Whip’ exploded in succession, completely wiping out the forest in the area.
Qua—and—and—and——!
The necromancer caught in the storm was tossed around like one of the fallen leaves blown by the wind, and let out a helpless groan as he was hit by all kinds of debris.
“Huh…”
It was an indignity I had never experienced before.
‘As expected, he doesn’t anticipate any of my attacks.’
That’s because there was no saint on the stage where the guy from his previous life was active. Also, there was no ‘war box’ that dropped weapons from an invisible place, and furthermore, there was only one Mowgli.
‘In other words, all of this will be unfamiliar.’
Of course, I knew that the first dimensional shifter, William Bernard, was attacked, so I might have been able to predict up to two, but I could never have thought of the third or fourth, so I had no choice but to helplessly allow the attack.
And that wasn’t all the firepower that drove him… Suddenly, rock fragments scattered around rose up, defying gravity, and started crashing down on the undead army that was moving to save the necromancer.
bang-! bang-! bang-! bang-!
It was like a scene where meteorites were falling.
The undead fell like bowling pins in that attack.
‘…huh? ‘What is that?’
Even Lee Hyun-wook was puzzled by that scene.
-Chick—I just need to catch that, right?
This voice was Kang Seo-yoon.
It was her mana communication.
“Uh, CEO Kang?”
– Yes, we came too. How could we not come when we’re fighting like this? You can tell me what that bastard is when it’s over, right? I don’t like it because she’s always been mystical. In other words, her colleagues are from the [Zumunnarae] guild
. Wow, the Guardians… Among them, it meant that gravity wizard Lee Seong-yoon had arrived.
Soon, several figures appeared in the western sky.
Guardian members, including Lee Seong-yoon and Kang Seo-yoon, were floating in the sky, defying gravity, looking down at the ground.
Also, Taesan Han, the King of Powers, who I don’t know when he joined, was also there.
Donald Harris and the Spirit King, who had been nearby from the beginning, also stepped forward and began crushing the undead army that was writhing and crawling towards their master. The
whole world was fighting alongside Lee Hyun-
wook . The overwhelming power added to the power of the car that was attached.
‘If we do this… we can never lose.’
Lee Hyun-wook also lifted his body into the air and looked down at the necromancer who was rising from the crushed forest.
‘…Like a rabbit cornered?’
And the heroes of this world, including Lee Hyun-wook, hovered over his head like hawks stalking their prey.
“All the heroes you assassinated are alive here. So…”
Lee Hyun-wook clicked his tongue.
“ …You are nothing here.”
Then he lowered his left hand to the ground and
a 100-ton holy sword fell straight towards him, and
the most destructive execution ceremony in history began.
