Chapter 1016 Episode
247 Laprarosa Liberation War (4)
Tsuaaaa…!
It seemed like waves were pouring out of a crack. An energy darker than any other brain energy was covering the place where Simat was.
As it crossed the dimension, the original destructive power of Ban was not fully revealed. However, it is impossible to rely solely on the shield of the red brain wave to receive it.
Simat gritted his teeth and glared at the crack.
Even though I had never actually seen Van, it felt like her murderous face was right in front of me.
Also, I felt confident.
‘…The power is weaker than last time. It is not refined to the limit and is a ferocious sword imbued with wrath. Is it because, as Lokia Ganesto said, chaos affected the being called Lingling?’
As soon as I thought about that, I suddenly saw Ban’s sword energy pouring out of the crack, turning into a dull black light.
[Kaaaaagh!]
A dark and gloomy scream unique to chaotic creatures could also be heard. Jin and Tuwang swallowed their breath as soon as they heard that sound.
‘Lingling…!’
It was Lingling’s scream. Despite the distance between dimensions, Lingling felt as if she was crying in the middle of the battlefield.
It was a scream that conveyed the pain just by hearing it. Although it sounded so close, Jin couldn’t read Lingling’s inner thoughts like usual.
This was because chaos was causing Lingling to run wild. Therefore, it was impossible to communicate with Lingling or attempt to unite with Lingling, as was done on the uninhabited island in the past.
Sigh!
Jin pulled out the blade stuck in the exact center of the upper part of the Rittal. Then the upper armor broke like dry skin, and Murakan’s dark coming seeped through the cracks.
Simart also made a quick decision. Rather than forcefully using Laprarosa’s Red Sky Sword once more, it was better to prevent the air fortress from being destroyed first.
The red light waves of the Red Sky God Sword began pouring into Rittal. At the same time, Piville and Vessel also slammed their main guns into the upper part of Rittal. Jin had not yet left the upper part of Rittal.
As long as you dodge, the enemy’s attacks will completely hit Rittal. However, Jin thought that the Jeokmyeong tribe could not have moved so foolishly.
As expected, as soon as Jin dodged the Jeokcheonsingeomdo and the main gun, they immediately changed their course and chased after him.
Moreover, the sword energy that Simat fired once more cut off the darkness that had encroached on Rittal. Rittal quickly became wealthy and reestablished itself.
‘After all, it’s not for nothing that it’s not the strongest war weapon in ancient times.’
This was the reason why countless powerful people in ancient times bowed down or perished in front of the enemy tribe. The air fortress itself is virtually unanswerable, but there are even combat gods like Simat.
Even the Red Ming Clan’s strongest air fortress has not even appeared in the Great Desert yet.
‘If things continue like this, they will eventually take out that flying fortress called Cree. Before that, we have to get the brothers out with royalties…!’
For La Prarosa, for the Bamul Union, and for the world.
It wasn’t something Jin could do alone. Rather, the most certain key now was Quaul’s device, and Ringling.
[Khaaaa-!]
Ringling’s screams continued to spread.
And every time Lingling suffered, the swords of the class that escaped through the crack became more chaotic. This means that Ban’s inaction is decreasing due to Lingling’s influence.
Jin took Simat’s sword and thought about what he could do for Lingling.
‘perhaps.’
Just like Lingling, one way could be to allow oneself to be engulfed in chaos.
‘If I am consumed by chaos, I might be able to communicate with that guy. He must be wandering around in chaos right now.’
Of course, it was a risky gamble. In the past, when the ‘First Chaos’ engulfed Jin, he lost all his strength and fought a difficult struggle with Ling Ling for a while.
But it’s different now.
Jin ascended to the Changseong and knew the nature of chaos much better than before. As the chaos engulfed me, I thought that I might be able to use that power.
And soon the thought became a certainty.
‘If I hold back now and Lingling goes wrong, there will be no next time. The entrance to La Fra Rosa will be closed forever.’
Even if it doesn’t close, Ban will inevitably suffer fatal damage from the aftermath of Lingling’s runaway.
Irreversible injury or death.
The worst part was that she went astray and ended up pointing the sword at her brothers. If Lingling’s runaway couldn’t be stopped, anything could happen.
The brothers will be able to hold out.
That’s what Jin thought just a moment ago, and that’s probably true. There is no way that Ban and the Ming Dynasty would die simply because they could not withstand an external attack.
But it wasn’t Lingling. The Lingling that Jin and the Ming Dynasty saw was not a very strong being. A small, immature, weak life.
So to speak, he was no different from a child. There is no way such a Lingling could withstand the chaos encroachment alone.
“Murakan, I won’t be able to concentrate on the fight for a while. So, in the meantime, deal with Simat and protect me.”
[Kid, what are you talking about all of a sudden?]
“I will accept chaos. “We have to save Ling Ling.”
[Suddenly!?]
“Then please.”
Murakan looked at Jin and the battlefield alternately with bewildered eyes, then nodded.
It was a look I hadn’t seen in a long time. Full of will, persistence, and madness. Not only could he not stop it anyway, but looking back on the past, Jin always tried to lead to the best outcome in moments like this.
[Well, it’s something a guardian dragon has to do. Okay, don’t worry, just do your job. Instead, when you go back, don’t disturb my time with Strawberry Pie.]
“Why are you talking so loudly while we’re fighting? Jin Runkandel, Black Dragon. Have you already relaxed because you’ve dealt some damage to Rittal?”
Simat cut down the darkness and closed the distance between the two.
At that moment, Jin suddenly reached out his hand to the handful of darkness in front of him. The energy of chaos still spread throughout the battlefield.
“It’s not like that, but the crying is a bit annoying.”
“what? No, what…!”
Simat’s eyes widened.
This was because Jin hit my chest with the hand that was holding Chaos. It was exactly the place where the light heart shined. Even Simat, the enemy, was so embarrassed for a moment that he shouted, “What are you doing?”
This was because Simat knew well how those consumed by chaos change. Therefore, he could not help but think that Jin was suddenly attempting suicide.
“Are you afraid of chaos? Simat.”
Jin looked at Simat and smiled. Simat fixed his eyes on his light heart, which was turning black with each passing second.
“…Now that I look at it, it seems like he’s more afraid than you are. “Did you throw a gamble to calm down the chaotic creature called Lingling?”
“As expected, you have insight. “Then I will come back and have a good time with Murakan.”
“You’re crazy.”
“I would appreciate it if you expressed your determination instead of swearing like that.”
Sigh-! Simat’s sword flew into Jin’s neck. Jin’s reaction speed was already slow and he was unable to accurately read the sword’s trajectory.
Instead, Murakan swung his tail and twisted Tetalon’s direction. Red sword energy passed through the air on the right side of Jin’s head.
[Are you deaf? You said you should have a good time with me.]
“Jin You can deal with me alone without Runkandel…”
As soon as Simat answered, Jin immediately felt his consciousness becoming hazy. His voice right in front of me rang like a distant echo.
Although it was expressed as ‘I am returning,’ it was only a story about the inner world. Jin still remained on the battlefield.
Simat’s sword and artillery fire from the air fortress are coming in non-stop. Now, in Jin’s view, all those attacks looked like just a bunch of crushed light.
This was because there was nowhere to hide in the Great Desert anyway from the eyes of the enemy tribe. No matter how fast you move, you can’t beat the mobility of the air fortress, and you can’t stop its firepower, so this was the best.
‘hmm…!’
My vision was blurring faster and faster. While the wall between reality and the inner world was collapsing, Jin realized an unexpected fact.
‘There is no unpleasant feeling at all.’
Of course, I thought that if chaos encroached on me, terrible pain would come. However, Jin actually felt comfortable, as if his body had been relaxed by the hot water.
Something warm was shining in the center of my chest. When I looked down, I saw that it was my optical heart.
In reality, it was stained black with chaos, but the light heart of the inner world was shining softly like a golden nugget.
Jin knew it instinctively as soon as he saw it. The fact that the power gained through regeneration and rising to the level of creation is protecting oneself.
‘I expected it to some extent, but I never thought it would be this comfortable.’
However, it is unknown how long this condition can last. Besides, Murakan and his brothers would be fighting to the death outside, so I had to finish the job quickly and go back.
Now, a pure white, shimmering desert spread out before my eyes. Jin began to walk, familiar with the sight he had encountered several times in the past while going back and forth between the inner world.
‘Lingling, where are you?’
There was no answer, but a sound like a child whimpering was heard from afar. It was Lingling’s cry.
As I started walking towards there, I saw black areas stained with chaos. In the middle of it all, Lingling was seen lying frozen like a stone statue.
Chaos was swirling nearby.
‘Should I cut down and pass by?’
There was no need for that. The whirlpool of chaos became lighter and purified into golden light as Jin approached Lingling. It’s as if I’m facing something I can’t resist.
Hwaaaaa…!
Soon, as the chaos cleared, Lingling slowly raised her head, panting.
‘jin…! Is it really you!?’
‘Yes, it’s me.’
‘Because you’re coming, hmm! This is not it. Since you came, I suddenly feel easier to breathe. What happened? ‘Half the class must have had a hard time because of me.’
As expected, the class was enduring the aftermath of Lingling’s runaway.
‘Can you check Brother Van’s condition right now?’
‘Oh, I think I’m feeling better now. Ban’s vitality is fading away. But where are we? I don’t think it’s La Fra Rosa or royalties.’
‘It’s my inner world. I came to you after deliberately being consumed by chaos. Now let’s go outside. Brother Ban is okay, and you seem to have already escaped La Prarosa due to the chaos… so we can fight together now.’
Soon Jin closed his eyes and focused on the sounds of reality again. When I opened my eyes, feeling the explosion of the battlefield becoming clearer, I saw the great desert stained red.
