Episode 59. [ Saviors of Seoul – 2 ]

————————=

The two large men, Kang-seok Kim and Kyo-yong Chu, stood facing each other and glared at each other.

Both of them were taller than 190 cm, so the intimidation was no joke.

However, if you look closely, compared to Kim Kang-seok, who has a stocky physique and clear features,

Chu Kyo-yong, who has a bulky physique and a toad-like appearance, looks very unattractive.

‘But in reality, the combat power of the Chugyoyong is evaluated one level higher.’

Of course, the druid Kim Kang-seok would be better based on the player’s individual combat power alone, but

Chu Kyo-yong’s beak would not be able to overcome those zombie monsters.

But Kim Kang-seok never gave up.

“…Team leader Choo Kyo-yong, you have an important fight ahead of you, so please conserve your strength.”

Choo Gyo-yong snorted at his words.

“Strength? Haha! When was there a time when I lacked strength? I guess you’ve forgotten about me?”

“Hey, I once gave you advice. “If you mistook the beasts for your own children and made a fuss, you would meet them and stay there… But you are one of the first players, and you are still a B grade?”

It was blatant disregard.

As a result, the spark between the two became even more intense, and

the beastly infrasounds emitted by the subordinates on both sides also became more intense.

It looked as if they would get tangled up and start a slaughter battle.

At that time, someone intervened between the two.

“Hey, Team Leader Chu, I need to save some face. What if you get so angry all the time?”

It was Choi Jeong-cheol.

“…General Choi, tsk—it’s been a while.”

“Yeah, you’re older now. “You have a child—oh, you didn’t have a child, right?”

Choo Gyo-yong snorted again, as if he had heard a boring joke.

“I was sorry last time, and this time your family will not be swept away by my flame.”

“Yes, of course you should. “Isn’t it basic?”

It seems that once, Jeongcheol Choi’s flame magic ate a monster for the purpose of teaching.

“Well then, how about we stop going in? There are a lot of eyes watching.”

“…Yes, of course.”

No matter how much it was for exhortation, he couldn’t treat Choi Jeong-cheol carelessly.

“Hey, Kim Kang-seok, be careful, you…”

He said that to Kim Kang-seok and passed by.

***

About a dozen players were gathered in the teacher’s conference room inside the elementary school.

They were the commanders of the AMT and the leaders of each group.

They were discussing the strategy for the upcoming ‘final battle’.

Among them, Chu Kyo-yong was raising his voice.

“Think carefully, you people—! If General Choi just gave him a big blow and they’ve become quiet, isn’t now the best time for those bugs to be gone? No, why are you waiting for the Anyang gang to come? One o’clock is urgent—! ”

It was a somewhat aggressive remark, but everyone was listening to his voice in silence.

Surprisingly, it was a reasonable enough statement from beginning to end.

“I will clear a path on my own, so the rest of us will aim all our firepower at the sky and kill all the flying bugs.” My beasts must attack quickly and destroy the cause of erosion before it’s too late! Oh, it’s frustrating. These people are so complacent…”

He was insisting that we attack right now instead of waiting for the Anyang Duo.

Lee Hyun-wook saw what he meant.

‘Before the Anyang Duo arrives, lead the entire army into a trap and annihilate them. That’s what I’m trying to do.’

Since the Anyang duo are both A-grade players,

when they arrive, Chu Kyo-yong will have twice as much to worry about.

It was a clever move to completely nip one in the bud before that.

However, it was a reasonable enough strategy to those who had no idea about the inside. .

If Chu Kyo-yong’s powerful subordinates took the lead and cleared a path, and hundreds of players followed behind them and focused their firepower on the sky, it was not impossible to reach the erosion factor. ‘I think it is the fastest and most certain method

. ‘

…But what if Chu Kyo-yong was really an ally?

“No, we can attack quickly and tell them to join when they come! I feel sorry for every minute, but do you have time to stay here like this? Anyway, soldiers talk at the table, right? ”

The civilian guild players who heard his words nodded one by one. There

was also impatience in their hearts, so Chu Kyo-yong’s words felt persuasive.

“Hmm… I agree.”

“Our [Seoul Shield] Guild also agrees with this plan.”

“Yes, I agree. “I think it’s quite possible.”

Players from the private guild agreed to the plan one by one. And although Choi Jeong-cheol and Kim Kang-seok had not yet agreed, they also thought that Chu Kyo-yong’s argument was feasible.

But…

“…I am against it.”

It was none other than Lee Hyun-wook who said that.

“—What? Why!”

Chu Kyo-yong shouted as if he was dumbfounded and looked at

Choi Jeong-cheol. “General Choi, but what is this?”

“Well, that guy is the commander of the ‘Steel Company.’”

Then, the civilian player leaders present here looked at Lee Hyun-wook with curiosity in their eyes. They

would not have known that the famous commander of the Steel Company was such a young man.

“…Oh, dear?”

Chu Kyo-yong said that and grinned.

Until now, every time he faced that damn steel company, the villains went missing. His

expression seemed as if the culprit was just this kid.

“He’s a soldier, right? Hey, what’s your player rating?”

“…….”

“This guy eliminated the erosion factor? Haha… Didn’t he get lucky or catch someone else’s ball? And just by looking at him, he looks like he has very little experience….”

“Have you ever been close to that erosion agent?”

Lee Hyun-wook interrupted Chu Kyo-yong and asked that.

Then Chu Kyo-yong’s face turned red.

“…What? That side? Did you just say that side?”

“Who said you don’t have time? Let’s just talk about business quickly.”

“Such a pair—”

Lee Hyun-wook ignored him and looked at General Choi Jeong-cheol.

“Brigadier General, given the situation, I will risk being rude.”

Choi Jeong-cheol nodded as if it were natural.

“Has anyone here been anywhere near removing the erosion factors?”

Of course, there was no one.

“Right now, we are removing the erosion factor from the wave zone—no, the only ones who have been near it are our Steel Company and the Anyang Duo. But what on earth do you know to make such a hasty decision to attack?”

Lee Hyun-wook raised his voice and looked around at the people sitting across from him at the table.

The steel company commander, the only remover of corrosive factors.

When those two qualifiers were added, the way people looked at Lee Hyun-wook completely changed.

“Everyone! Even this current situation has been created as a variable. Isn’t it a situation where an additional event has been opened after attacking the three erosion factors? Interpreting an unknown space that has never been experienced before and using old experience to break through is… skillful. “Is it courage that comes from? No…”

Lee Hyun-wook shook his head and spoke in a low voice.

“That would be… an old man’s carelessness.”

At that point, they nodded their heads one by one. When I heard it, there was definitely something complacent about it.

“When we reached the erosion factor twice, what we saw were various traps. And countless unexpected elite monsters popped out. We didn’t even know what the ‘boss monster’ was. If we charged in in this situation… . We are not a single team, but are gathered from all over the place, and to put it crudely, we have a unity that is like bean powder. We will be annihilated.”

At those words, Chu Kyo-yong jumped up and said,

“Damn—there are no such things as elite monsters!”

“yes? “How do you know that?”

“…….”

Of course, as a villain, he would know best. But since I couldn’t show that, tackling me like that seemed like I was making a fuss without any basis at the moment.

“Oh no…”

“Yes, honestly, you don’t know anything. I know you’re a great player and have a lot of experience, but… you probably don’t know anything about waves. But now you’re making a reckless prediction and risking all of our lives.” “No, you are insisting that the fate of Seoul be placed on a single assault.”

“…….”

Chu Kyo-yong couldn’t answer, and Lee Hyun-wook continued speaking with a helpless smile on his face.

“What everyone here is worried about right now is time.”

Yes, it was time.

There is only one day left until erosion.

And as time passes, the number of ‘iron-clad insects’ increases.

“But time may be on our side.”

“…what does that mean?”

A woman who was the master of a medium-sized guild asked,

“It’s not just bugs that are increasing at this moment. Players continue to gather. Anyang Duo, the biggest force, is also coming. And above all…”

Lee Hyun-wook looked at Choi Jeong-cheol.

“The time we are spending now has been prepared as a powerful blow by General Choi Jeong-cheol here. And now… the cooldown of that skill continues to decrease.”

Choi Jeong-cheol nodded at those words.

“Yes, I can guarantee that. My skills will come back in 11 hours.”

Lee Hyun-wook said the last word:

“That’s right. “Our best moment may be 11 hours away.”

“ah-!”

Then everyone understood what Hyunwook Lee said.

After 11 hours, there were still about 7 hours left until the erosion was complete.

At that very moment, Choi Jeong-cheol’s ‘Semi-Armageddon’ returns and

once again blows it on Mt. Cheongryong, greatly reducing the number of ironclad poisonous insects.

If as many players as possible rush in at that moment…

yes, the battle can be fought under the best conditions.

Upon hearing that, everyone began to agree with Lee Hyun-wook’s opinion.

“Anyway… I think this opinion is better.”

“I think so.”

“Yes, that’s right. Isn’t there only one chance left for us anyway? Rather than trying urgently and in an uncertain way, taking a little time seems like a more certain way.”

Chu Kyo-yong trembled and glared at Lee Hyun-wook.

His first plan was blocked.

***

“What are you talking about, steel—!”

When the meeting was over and we went out into the hallway, Chu Kyo-yong approached Hyun-wook Lee.

Then he came closer and whispered in my ear.

“Damn, he did a good job of shaking off his beak, this little guy…”

He put his hand on Lee Hyun-wook’s shoulder.

Knock-!

It seemed that he intended to force his hand and hurt it.

However, Lee Hyun-wook showed no sign of pain.

“This bastard—his body…”

was as hard as steel.

He finally let go of his hand and brushed his shoulder.

“Anyway… you better take care of yourself.”

Now he began to threaten very openly.

“Sometimes the young animals I raise are a bit out of control, so mistakes happen?”

It was a warning that he might suddenly strike and kill you.

To this, Lee Hyun-wook nodded and answered,

“I’m still not good at handling my abilities, so I tend to make mistakes often, so be careful of the blind piece of metal.”

“…what? paillette? “How do you think I can become a piece of metal?”

It was then.

“Everyone look over there!”

“Uh… what is that?”

The playground outside the window began to become unusually noisy.

Soon, someone’s fierce cry was heard.

shit! A swarm of bugs is coming down!”

…what?

Lee Hyun-wook hurriedly approached the window.

‘What…’

Indeed, a black shimmer rose from far away, near Cheongryongsan Mountain.

It wasn’t smoke from a fire this time either.

‘It really came out…’

With yet another unexpected timing, the villains seemed to have used that ‘inducing item’ again.

‘…Are you suggesting we go to this judgement?’

Choo Gyo-yong approached and smiled.

“…Well, it looks like your idiotic bid for time is ruined. What should I do?”

“…….”

“That’s why I told you to play a player. Oh, listen to me… Ugh—” Chu Kyo- yong, whose original plan had gone awry, took a

slightly more extreme move.

Inviting an ironclad poisonous insect…

I was planning on causing confusion and scattering the players.

“Prepare for battle—!”

I heard Kim Kang-seok’s shouts from somewhere.

However, the only ones who responded properly to the voice were the AMT soldiers and some experienced players, and

the majority, who did not expect this situation, were confused.

Choo Gyo-yong looked at the scene as if it were funny.

“Aren’t they too cold-hearted?”

“You should wipe your drool too, hehe, I’m going first?”

Chu Kyo-yong opened the window and threw himself out.

“You idiots—! Stop acting like a fool and fight properly!”

Chu Kyo-yong shouted like that and ran across the playground.

At the end of it, his subordinates were lined up.

Ugh——

When he gestured, they drew their weapons and started running forward.

Thump—thump—thump—thud!

On the playground . He pushed away all the parked cars and rushed somewhere.

But there was something strange about his movement.

As if he wasn’t paying attention to the swarm of insects coming from the sky, he climbed over the school wall… and then disappeared out of sight.

Chu Kyo-yong’s thoughts were : It was simple.

‘Anyway, ironclad bugs keep popping up. It’s okay to spend a little bit here.’

A staging point has been declared here, and players are coming from all over Seoul.

However, if the rumor spreads that the staging area is under attack, the progress they make will stop, which

could ruin the players’ ability to prepare powerful firepower.

It literally means ‘collapse’ in advance . ‘ That’s what I was told to do.

‘If I don’t somehow make it consume it now, it will eventually break through…’

And…

‘Go and sprinkle strengthening magic.’

Chu Kyo-yong’s relatives, who had gone beyond the wall and disappeared, were casting a ‘strengthening spell’ on the ‘iron-clad poisonous insects’ somewhere in the distance. It was a very rare skill that Chu Kyo-yong had. – Your descendant ‘Minotaur’ sacrificed his stamina to attack the entire area

. Emits ‘Wild Exaltation’.

Along with the system message, gray smoke can be seen rising from afar.

The moment a friendly monster is covered in the smoke, it becomes up to three times more powerful.

“Damn, a swarm of bugs will arrive soon . “Shut up, where have all the Minotaurs gone?”

Someone came up to him and asked a question.

It was an exhausting captain.

“What? They’re basically crazy kids, so don’t worry about it and do your job!”

“Is it really that out of control? “We must protect this place!”

“Oh, don’t worry… do you want to search?”

Go Jin-han swore softly and retreated.

‘Yes, when a swarm of reinforced insects piles up, a handful of troops like this are nothing.’

Chu Kyo-yong glanced at the players and sneered.

‘And when their power weakens, you can just wipe them out. Even if someone sees me…’

In order to make the villain’s plan a success, he is branded a terrorist. I can take it too.

Boom—Thump—Thump—Thump—

As he was thinking that, a huge sound came next to him.

It was the ‘Golem Turtle’, a 5m long turtle-like monster with a red shell.

“Team leader, I took out the Golem Turtle.”

“Okay, take good care of that kid.”

“yes!”

And three black orcs approached him. They were guards.

“But… as I said before, I will keep a close eye on the Steel Company.”

“It’s okay, man—what would they notice? “You must have been lucky.”

Chu Kyo-yong believed that the Steel Company had found out nothing about the villain.

The five butchers were caught by Kim Kang-seok and Seo Eun-ha, and then Ki Baek-jun started a suicide spell.

Gong Hyeon-jun was originally a bit of an eccentric and had a restless side, so he

probably got caught, and Choi Min-seong and his group were probably caught and started a suicide spell together.

“And with so many eyes watching, how can you attack me without any basis?”

Steel Company They were soldiers.

There was no way they would do anything that went against the grain.

“That means we are safer than ever before.”

He is protected by the enemy in the middle of the enemy camp.

It was like a cuckoo chick in a cuckoo’s nest.

“Haha—what is this… it’s not as big a deal as you think, right?”

He smiled quite openly now.

But that was then.

Zeng—!

A loud noise sounded from above my head.

When I reflexively raised my head, a ‘giant sword’ collided with a ‘mana drone’.

“what?”

So, the magic drone crashed and the giant sword was thrown away.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The giant sword that had been spinning around and lost its flight trajectory…

was thrown onto the Golem Turtle’s back .

I was stuck.

“Huh—?”

Chu Kyo-yong tilted his head.

I couldn’t understand what was happening right in front of my eyes.

“How…”

The Golem Turtle’s shell was very hard.

It took dozens of strikes from an A-class warrior player to break it. But

how could such a blind sword…

!’

However, as it ages, the shell becomes harder and the cracks in the shell become wider.

And that was the Golem Turtle’s method of attack.

However, it was never widely known that that was its weak point. Even

Chu Kyo-yong continued to study his subordinates. That’s what I found out….

As it turned out, there was a very large sword stuck right there. It

was a dangerous moment.

Of course,

the Golem Turtle didn’t die from just that amount of damage.

No, it would never die. As long as its heart was safe.

“Huh…”

Chu Kyo-yong swept away his shocked heart.

It was because those hearts, or ‘heart box’, were deep inside that guy’s body.

“Hey! What are you staring at! “Aren’t you going to take that off?”

“Ah! I see!”

The moment Chu Kyo-yong shouted that at his subordinate—

blah blah blah!

A huge wave occurred out of nowhere and

the Golem Turtle exploded into pieces. Chu

Kyo-

yong was also blown away five or six meters by the impact. .

At that time, someone came to his bedside and helped him up.

“…Are you okay?”

It was Lee Hyun-wook, the commander of the Steel Company.

And he said in a low whisper,

“Oh, I made a mistake…”

Chu Kyo-yong was still astonished.

He pushed Lee Hyun-wook away and stood in front of what was the Golem Turtle…

“Oh my. …”

Heart Box…

He couldn’t say it out loud.

It was a secret that no one knew.

System messages appeared one after another in front of his eyes.

– Your descendants will return to death.

– Your descendants will return to death. .

– Your family will return to death.

– Your family will return to death.

– Your family will return to death.

.

.

.

And the three black orc guards around him collapsed.

He was next. Feeling deep anger boiling up from within,

he turned around and swung his fist at Lee Hyun-wook.

But Lee Hyun-wook easily dodged the punch.

“Poetry mistake? “Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssskilling.sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss.sf.sf.ss.sss.fucks,) Are you crazy, saying this was a mistake?”

Lee Hyun-wook shrugged his shoulders with a nonchalant expression.

“Ah, I told you earlier, I’m still clumsy at handling my abilities, so I’m just a piece of metal… Be careful.”

A piece of metal… A piece of metal… That huge sword is a piece of metal…

Chu Kyo-yong’s face did not turn red this time, but turned bluish.

Lee Hyun-wook’s face was full of expressions that he didn’t know what to do.

“It’s okay. How much does a monster like that cost? I’ll pay you back.”

Yes, to someone who doesn’t know anything, it could have just seemed like a mistake due to poor ability control. Above all, the injustice of colliding with the ‘Mana Drone’ was the culprit… “Ah…” A-grade player Chu Kyo-yong is the

sky

. He looked up and sighed.

All the ‘hearts’ of his family were inside him and they had all burst.

He was nothing anymore.

Lee Hyun-wook put his hand on his shoulder.

Sigh—!

A huge pain came as if he had been squeezed by a hydraulic press. came.

“—Ugh!”

Choo Gyo-yong bit his lip enduring the pain, and Lee Hyun-wook whispered in his ear.

“That’s why I should have followed my plan…”

I would have never imagined that they would blatantly destroy it under the guise of a mistake.

So one threat was completely neutered.

It was time to begin targeting the last erosion factor in earnest.
