Episode 53. [Heroes of Seoul-2]

————————

The very moment Lee Hyun-wook ordered ‘open the sky’, a variable occurred.

Gu—u—u—u—un——!

Prior to the creation of the portal, an unidentified roar began to sound from the sky.

At this, all players and all monsters raised their heads in unison.

And at the point where they met their eyes, something strange happened.

Red letters appeared in the sky.

– caution! [Additional events] will be granted due to players’ amazing achievements.

“…That’s the whole notice!”

One of the shooter players who was preparing to shoot from the rooftop of an apartment building shouted that.

[Full notice] is not a ‘system message’ visible only to the player’s eyes, but

a message that floats in ‘real space’ so that even an unspecified number of civilians can see it. Most of the time, it was in the form of extremely large letters floating in the sky like this.

In other words, that content would now be visible to all survivors throughout the wave zone.

“What on earth is happening now?”

“Damn… at least it’s definitely not a good thing.”

After full notice, nine times out of ten, disaster arrives.

That was a self-evident fact proven by past history.

At that time, the message in the sky slowly began to change.

– caution! [World Boss Monster: Chimera] is scheduled to appear in the wave zone.

“War World boss monster—!”

Everyone was shocked.

“This is crazy… It seemed like things were going well, but what is this…”

“Has there ever been a case like this before?”

World Boss Monster

It was the most powerful and terrifying being among the many types of boss monsters.

The World Boss Monster appeared after the ‘erosion’ of the original wave and became the ruler of the area.

‘Agent Red Drake’ in California, USA ‘I, the ‘Orc King’ of Shanghai, China, was a representative example.

But now, it was said that such a being would appear on the second day of the wave.

That made no sense, as if the final boss appeared from stage 1.

“Everyone run away now . “I have to go!”

A man shouted and stood up.

Then a man who appeared to be his colleague grabbed his arm.

“Brother! All the hostages haven’t escaped yet!”

“Shut up and follow me! “Can’t you understand the situation?”

“…yes?”

“You still don’t know? The thing over there in that wriggling egg isn’t normal!”

The man said that and the shooters’ eyes turned to the black altar on the rooftop of the department store.

Gulp—gulp—

a grotesque lump of flesh surrounded by skin and blood vessels writhing on top of it…

It was clearly moving more violently than before.

So it seemed that something inside it would come out at any moment.

“Damn it! That’s the Chimera! If it hatches, we’re all done—!”

His words were persuasive.

It wasn’t that others didn’t know either.

Just how powerful the world boss monster was…

Everyone remembered the failed incident to subdue California’s ‘Agent Red Drake’ three years ago.

In just one morning . It was an unprecedented situation in which 30 of the world’s top 100 seats disappeared.

In other words, that being was a monster that the players here could not handle.

“Then I’m sorry, but I’ll go too.”

“Okay, we have to survive first….”

One by one, the shooter players began to choose to run away.

The steel company members, including Choi Tae-yong, couldn’t do anything about it while staring blankly at their backs. I knew well that there would be no retreat unless another order was given.

And still no other orders.

In other words, the Steel Company’s operation would continue.

“Sergeant Lee Hyun-wook… what the hell….”

Their eyes could not help but be directed at Lee Hyun-wook, who was still standing alone on the rooftop. ***

… I expected it, but it was still a big hit.”

Lee Hyun-wook looked up at the sky . He looked up and muttered that.

Everyone who saw the message was in despair, but Lee Hyun-wook, who was standing closest, had a smile on his face, because he knew exactly what the message meant. ‘The world boss monster Chimera is coming soon

. It hatches, however, a whopping two days earlier than the original time…’

Over there, on the altar made of black bricks, I saw a squirming fleshy egg sac. A

chimera, a cursed monster born through black magic and human sacrifice, a terrible spell…

This guy will be born on the 4th day of the original wave, so 2 days from now.

The barrier and monsters here were actually all devices to safely raise that chimera.

However, following an aerial bombardment, the barrier was destroyed and numerous players attacked. As a result ,

the original plan of the ‘Multi-Race Dark Magic Association’ had to go awry, and although it was

too early, they seemed to have judged that it would be dangerous if they did not hatch it now.

In other words, they urgently summoned the chimera, which was still unfinished.

‘Completed in 2 days . If he had been resurrected as a body, he wouldn’t have been able to deal with him, but now he is a kind of immature baby.’

In other words, it was a golden opportunity to easily hunt a game of enormous value.

– Chik – Are we going ahead as planned?

A somewhat nervous voice came from the Mana Messenger – a polite word as well.

Of course, I was extremely embarrassed by the message that floated in the sky. It seemed like,

“I don’t care what happens and proceed as planned.”

– Chic— Immediately casts the reception confirmation link magic.

Soon, the magicians of the Steel Company lined up in the department store parking lot began casting.

Lee Hyun-wook only saw that scene and then turned his head straight ahead.

Geaaaa—!

This was because dozens of monsters were running towards him.

Lee Hyun-wook stretched his left hand forward and swung it lightly from right to left.

Damn——bad——!

The giant sword Mowglei cut from right to left, splitting the five orcs in half.

Wow—?

The guys who were running after that tremendous force hesitated.

Yes, it was a scene worthy of being scared.

When Lee Hyun-wook took one step forward, they took two steps back.

But…

their

eyes suddenly turned red and they started drooling.

‘It’s a warlock’s berserk spell.’

Hyunwook Lee looked towards the ‘altar’.

Guys wearing red robes were gathered around him.

Most of them were injecting some kind of black energy towards the chimera on the altar, and about

three or four of them were reaching out their hands towards us and casting berserk spells.

“You’re doing something useless.”

When you are under the berserk spell, you forget your fear and literally rush at them like crazy.

But even if you lost your fear, it was not enough to stop the Mogley.

Lee Hyun-wook swept them all away with just a few gestures of his hand and moved forward.

Meanwhile , A huge shadow blocked his path.

Thump—thump—thump—thud—

Troll Orcs and gnolls couldn’t stop him, so this time he sent out the green giant.

The thing was holding a huge axe, and the ax head was as big as a human. It looked bigger than his body.

That

guy screamed and raised the huge ax towards Lee Hyun-wook.

At that moment, Lee Hyun-wook grabbed the moglai with both hands and applied a rigid body to his entire body.

Blah blah blah—— He

rose by leaps and bounds . At the same time, he put all the metal control on the tip of the Mogley. He swung the huge sword towards the flying ax blade with the greatest power he could muster. T——-! Two huge chunks of metal

collided

. A formidable shock wave was created.

“Tsk—”

Lee Hyun-wook’s legs rose slightly in the air and were pushed back by 30 cm.

‘Tsk! It’s not enough to fight the troll yet.’

However, he had no intention of defeating such a giant with physical strength. From the beginning,

go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go

give me the moment a red spark erupts between the two iron pieces that clashed again. The moment a red spark appeared between the two iron pieces, Lee Hyun-wook used the gong as a smoke screen and fired

a ‘Pail Note’.

Before he could react, Palenote pierced the guy’s left eye.

Pow—!

Losing half of his vision in an instant, the guy flinched and staggered.

‘Now!’

Lee Hyun-wook ran to the guy’s left side, out of sight, and swung his Mowglai very low. With that

blow,

the guy’s left ankle flew off, and the guy lost his balance and fell forward.

Boom—

The guy who was so defenseless was hit. The powerful Moglei fell toward the nape of the neck.

Thump! Thud! Thud! Thud! It

only took three strikes to split the thick nape.

“Huh…”

Lee Hyun-wook held his breath. He went around the troll’s corpse, choosing.

Just

then…

A black beam of light began pouring out from the side of the altar.

At the same time, the egg sac burst and red blood spurted out like a fountain.

Chimera That was what was born.

“Okay, I would be grateful if you would come out in turn.”

As the warlocks lined up on the left and right peeled off the skin with long sticks,

red-hot chunks of flesh slid out and rolled down the altar.

Wow….

– The world boss monster ‘Chimera’ has appeared!

It was an unknown monster with a body length of 7 to 8 m.

At first glance, it looked like a huge mass of sea anemones, as bundles of tentacles sprouted all over its body.

The head exposed through the cracks in the tentacles resembled the head of a newborn bird.

It had pink, greasy skin, large eyes, and something like a beak…

keeeeeeeee——!

As it let out a powerful scream, its beak split in four directions and eight tongues protruded.

‘As expected, it’s a look that’s far less fading than the one in my memory.’

As expected, since it was born two days early, even its appearance was not yet complete.

– Chick— Link deployment complete—!

Just then, good news arrived.

The beams of light fired by the magicians of the Steel Company converged in the air above the department store, and

soon a huge passageway—a portal—opened with a thunderous roar.

The sky finally opened.

“As soon as he’s born, he’s going to have a bitter taste…”

Lee Hyun-wook smiled.

– Chick— Battalion Armory Foot Portal Deployment Completed! Valid time is 3 minutes!

“Okay, from now on… “I’m giving that monster a birthday present he’ll never forget!”

Lee Hyun-wook shouted like that, stretched out his hand toward the portal, and closed his eyes.

I felt the cold lumps of metal lined up in the battalion armory inside the portal.

He started pulling them out of the rescue all at once.

Sh—sh—sh—sh—sh—sh—!

Hundreds of soldiers fell and poured down fiercely on the roof of the department store.

The monsters caught in berserk simply stared blankly at the scene with bewildered expressions.

Kwa-and-and-and-and-and-!

As the steel rain fell, dozens of monsters guarding the altar collapsed.

It was a formidable room.

‘But it doesn’t work on Chimera.’

Five or six spears were stuck in the chimera’s body, but it didn’t seem to cause much damage.

As if it was just annoying, it moved its tentacles and pulled out the spear stuck in its body and threw it away.

“But that’s not the main thing this time.”

Some ‘big things’ were mixed in among the rain of steel.

– You can secure ‘master authority’ for that Living Armor.

That’s right, a total of 12 Living Armors were falling with the rain of steel.

They were like ball-jointed dolls. I was falling helplessly, but when Lee Hyun

wook stretched out his hand and gave me control over the metal… Wow

, blue eye lights turned on at the same time in all 12 units.

And I adjusted my posture right before I crashed to the ground.

Thump-thump-thump-thump-thump-thump. —Thump—!

It was a stable landing.

Crunch—clunk—

The iron-armored paratroopers stood up.

Kwaee——!

As if surprised by the impact, the chimera let out a scream and stood up. Perhaps

because it was just born, it moved normally. I couldn’t help but stumble, but

Living Armor, which had invaded its territory, seemed displeased and swung its tentacle in that direction.

“No, not yet. “There is a real gift.”

Lee Hyun-wook’s hand was still facing the portal and he pulled out the last item.

Char-la-la-la-la-!

It was a chain.

To be exact, it was a chain imbued with divine power and had sharp ‘hooks’ on both ends.

‘Good, it was made perfectly in a short period of time.’

This, too, was the work of Kang Jeong-doo.

When Lee Hyun-wook communicated with the battalion commander this morning, he asked for a chain like this to be made.

The reason was said to be to suppress zombie trolls, but

in fact, it was prepared for that giant monster ‘Chimera’.

Crunch—clunk—

the Living Armors picked up the chains and threw them at the Chimera.

A total of six hooks were pierced into the Chimera’s fragile body, and as the Living Armorers pulled on the chains with all their strength, the Chimera’s huge body collapsed helplessly.

Keueeee——!

I struggled to get up, but to no avail. He was as weak as he was when he was just born.

Six living armors began throwing powerful javelins at the restrained one.

However, they weren’t warlocks who would just watch with their eyes open.

They hid for a moment to avoid the steel rain, but

then gathered near the altar and stretched out their hands toward the sky.

Gooooo——!

Then, a purple magic circle bloomed from their grasp, and

soon a purple cloud began to form higher than the portal.

Rush——!

‘That’s… a wide-area lightning spell.’

Lee Hyun-wook also couldn’t help but feel nervous at that sign. Lightning magic is much more destructive and instantaneous than regular lightning magic, so if you are caught off guard, you will be reduced to dust.

In an instant, the world turned white and lightning struck the rooftop.

Aww—wow——!

One living armor that was hit directly by it was shattered as it was.

Aww—wow——!

Once again, the two Lightning Living Armor units were tragically separated and scattered here and there.

In a short time, three living armors were retired.

Countless people watching this scene swallowed dry saliva.

Because things never looked good.

However, this was actually the moment Lee Hyun-wook had been waiting for.

‘—now.’

The nerves of all the warlocks guarding the Chimera were focused on the Living Armor.

In other words, the guard against Lee Hyun-wook has become looser.

As always, he did not miss the ‘gap’ the enemy showed.

He lifted his left hand to the sky and then swung it very hard toward the floor.

Fur——billion——!

As expected, the bloody roar was Mogley.

It penetrated the Chimera.

Wow….

But unlike the Jongbi troll, it didn’t die with that one hit.

But this time it wasn’t the end.

“Shockwave—”

Lee Hyun-wook muttered like that.

Then the Moglei began to vibrate.

Huh—!

The original mass of the Moglei reached tens of tons.

However, it was only ‘sealed’ and suppressed by magic.

Such a concentrated mass That skill, which instantly opens and generates a huge shock wave,

was Shockwave.

Lee Hyun-wook activated it with the Mogley stuck in the guy’s head, and

for a moment, the huge body of the Mogley trembled as if it would explode at any moment. ……. A huge

wave

exploded like an explosion. The air in the area trembled like a wave, all the warlocks standing around were blown away, and the altar made of bricks collapsed. Naturally ,

the chimera’s head was shattered.

Hududu—hududu—

its flesh was scattered everywhere as if an old pumpkin had been exploded.

– Congratulations! You have defeated the world boss monster ‘Chimera’!

At the same time, it flew into the sky. The contents of the ‘Full Notice’ have been changed.

– The ‘World Boss Monster (Chimera)’ that occurred in the area has been eradicated.

“It is done.”

This happened just 5 minutes after the world fell into frustration with the news of the appearance of a world boss monster.

This left the world in bewilderment for a while.

– Congratulations! You have achieved a special achievement.

You have caught the enormous being called the world boss monster. Of course, I achieved the achievement.

But I didn’t have time to check the details now.

I killed the chimera, but the most important problem was to remove the erosion factor.

To do that, I first needed to clean up the troublesome warlocks.

Those guys. He was now in a state of fainting due to being caught up in the shock wave.

Lee Hyun-wook fired a fail note.

Sigh!

But a black sphere flew from somewhere and bounced Lee Hyun-wook’s fail note.

“You’re the boss monster?”

He was a Red Orc, a red-skinned orc wearing a red robe.

It was clearly the boss monster of the Multi-Race Warlock Society, ‘High-ranking Warlock’.

The guy glared at Lee Hyun-wook and then suddenly turned his back.

Then, he used teleportation and appeared on a railing about 20 meters away.

Are you trying to run away?

But it made no sense to run away from the erosion factor.

But the guy grinned and looked down the railing.

Lee Hyun-wook followed the guy’s gaze and looked in that direction… and he couldn’t help but be shocked.

“shit-!”

Hundreds of civilians were leaving the underground parking lot, following Park Jun-mo’s lead.

“What are you thinking…”

Looking at the evil smile, Lee Hyun-wook’s prediction was correct.

‘The plan is to kill civilians and absorb their souls!’

From the beginning, chimeras were creatures created based on human life force.

In other words, that guy was a warlock who controlled ‘life force’.

In other words, the intention was to slaughter humans and use their souls to replenish their power.

If lightning struck those hundreds of civilians, dozens of them would die instantly.

“Park Jun-mo—get away now!”

Park Jun-mo raised his head at the shout.

And made eye contact with the warlock who was looking down at them.

But it was already too late.

T——!

A ray of lightning from the purple cloud hit the civilians. .

But…

I didn’t know – –

The lightning that was flying at the speed of light… stopped high in the air.

“……”

Before I knew it, Park Jun-mo’s right hand was pointing towards the sky ,

and a blue electric current ran between his fingers. was flowing.

“Gasp—!”

…Jun-mo Park himself looked surprised.

Hyun-wook Lee couldn’t help but be surprised.

‘Jun-mo Park… the delicacy of current control has risen to a significant level.’

Park Jun-mo soon came to his senses and stretched out both hands to the rooftop.

Then, a lightning bolt that had been stopped in the air shot in that direction.

Boom!

However, the accuracy was not very high and it struck the fourth floor of the department store.

Immediately after, Park Jun-mo stumbled and suffered a bloody nose. He cried.

It seemed like he was exerting more control than he was capable of and straining his body.

“Good job—!”

Meanwhile, Lee Hyun-wook rushed towards the guy and fired a pale note.

But at that very moment, his palm once again turned towards Park Jun-mo.

Aww—wow——!

A second lightning strike fell.

Park Jun-mo seemed powerless to stop it due to the shock from earlier.

However, after moving away from the civilians, he directed the lightning towards himself.

Kwa——ang——!

Lightning struck and dented the asphalt as if a meteor had struck.

But again, something strange happened.

“Oh my…what is this…”

It was clearly a correct hit, but Park Jun-mo was completely fine.

And the blue electric current was being absorbed into Park Jun-mo’s body.
