Chapter 370,
Chapter 112. The reason why they are looking for Temar’s grave (2)
The blood from Rick and his men stretched out and crawled on the floor like a snake. A phenomenon that did not exist until Rick died.
Jin shook his head.
“Body transformation? Is it like a living golem?”
“It’s similar, but a little different. The old dark mages called this magical transformation.”
“I always feel it, but I mean I know everything.”
Jin shrugged and said.
‘Although he never taught it to me, the master was definitely able to use a considerable level of dark magic. I don’t know if I can use it at this time.’
In her previous life, Valeria had a history of learning dark magic in the Heister family’s lore.
However, because it is dangerous and requires a terrible catalyst, I did not use it and did not inform my only student.
She thought that dark magic should disappear.
“After being a living golem master, he is now a demon. That’s annoying. I mean, I get involved with these guys from time to time. Rick Helter. I thought he was a neat guy in his own way, but I never thought he would stab me in the back like this.”
It became ridiculous to show mercy so that I could greet the Emperor’s side.
Jin naturally thought that they were warriors with pride and pride. Anyone would have. If you see him keeping his will and integrity even in the face of a formidable enemy that is difficult to handle.
‘It’s an honor to serve even after death… Rick Helter knew it would happen like this.’
Looking back, the first time I met an enemy who transformed out of nowhere was when I was a student.
Starting with the guards who turned into biological golems when they went on a mission to steal artifacts in Colon, Jin has often dealt with victims of magic experiments.
“It’s not a perfect magic circle.”
Jin nodded at Valeria’s words.
“As I see it, yes. It’s slow to activate, and at a glance it looks unnecessarily complicated and crude.”
“It’s a common complexity when trying to force a magic that won’t work.”
As the two said, the magic circle drawn with the blood of the SS was incomplete.
In other words, it means that magic is still in the experimental stage.
‘The fact that the Royal Guard was used as a test subject means that the Imperial Family still has some confidence in this magic circle.’
Ethical issues aside, the SS were clearly the best personnel in Bement.
They probably wouldn’t have just used them as test subjects. Jin judged that Bement had reached the stage of completion of the magic called ‘Mainification’.
Also, Rick and his men could not be called victims, unlike the living golems and masters they had met before. They were only disgusting humans who were loyal to the imperial family and participated in the experiment.
In the midst of anger, on the other hand, I felt that it had gone well.
‘I got an unexpected harvest. Kingelo is also making a golem that he is a master of, and Gippel is also continuing to experiment with living golems, so I thought Bement was preparing something, but I see this accurate evidence.’
Suddenly, a fact crossed my mind.
‘Bement is looking for Temar’s body…’
The reason why Temar’s bodyguards came to Wantaramo Forest.
‘I wondered what he was trying to do by finding that body. Was this a meme? Is it an ulterior motive to use Temar’s body to create a demon?’
Kwakduk…
The molars were ground. If that were true, it was a problem that one person, Runkandel, could never pass over.
Even destroying the imperial family would be no problem.
Of course it’s not certain. At least in Jin’s knowledge, there is no magic using the ‘body of the dead’ as a material.
However, ancient dark world magic was literally an unknown territory to Jin, so it was a case where it could be enough.
‘Does the family know about Beament’s mind?’
It didn’t matter if it was or not.
Anyway, even if the family knew information about Mine, they would not have shared it with themselves.
It was clear that he would continue to be ostracized until Rosa and Joshua and their henchmen could use them when they wanted and in a way that would benefit them best.
Therefore, it didn’t matter whether the family knew the demon or not.
‘I use this information before my family.’
Jin had already calculated how to use the information about Beament’s Mine.
‘Whether it’s to use Temar’s corpse to complete the minecraft or to find it for another reason. From the moment they secretly started searching for the body, they committed a mortal crime against Runkandel. I’ll make you pay.’
Quaang-!
Jin hit the floor with his fist. A fist full of aura followed by the scene of the dirt floor bursting mercilessly.
It was an action to break the magic circle.
“…does the wizard think of breaking the magic circle with his fist?”
I didn’t throw out my fist expecting to be able to get rid of the magic circle. However, since it was the first magic circle that both Jin and Valeria had experienced, I just stretched it out in case I didn’t know.
“It’s an unstable magic circle, just in case. It doesn’t work either.”
Even though the floor was all over, the blood continued to draw an ominous magic circle. It looked like it was swarming with red bugs.
“We must leave evidence, Arya Owlheart.”
“What did the person who needed proof just try to break the magic circle?”
“I thought I could stop the magic and take their corpses. If I left the research to you or another outstanding mage, I could have revealed that the body transformation magic of the body of the body of the body of the body was used in the body of the bodyguard of the bodyguard.
Jin stopped talking and turned his head.
Ugjeok good deuk!
It was because he heard the grotesque sound of the flesh and bones of the dead bodyguards being twisted.
“…It seems like it would be difficult to take care of a corpse in good condition.”
Jin stepped forward to Valeria and said.
The bodies of the dead bodyguards could be seen swelling and shrinking repeatedly at high speed.
A horrific sight that makes people with a weak stomach feel sick just by looking at it.
In addition, the heads of the dead bodies were being picked up and reattached. Even the fallen head was swollen in an ugly way, and even Jin and Valeria felt sick to their stomach.
There was no need to keep watching it.
Shih!
Jin rushed forward and cut off the body that was hanging by the throat. The guy fell forward again, losing his neck and hands, but now that the opponent was not human, he was sure to kill him.
Bradamante frantically drew a trajectory before the body of the quicksword even touched the ground again. Black air swept over the corpse as if food had been scattered.
Reddened flesh and bones poured out. Even a high-ranking monster with super-speed regeneration wouldn’t be able to dream of exhaling again if it became flesh like this.
Nevertheless, as if he had no intention of ending it, Jin created flames with his magic power and set fire to the shattered corpse.
The pieces of meat that began to burn roaringly turned to ash in the blink of an eye. Valeria also used her magic to get rid of them along with Jin.
So, in an instant, I sorted out the three corpses that were about to be revived.
But the other three were already in the process of transforming. Even the corpse that was transformed first among them was already pointing a knife at Jin.
Caan-!
Jin rotated his body and hit his sword.
The shock transmitted through the wrist was quite heavy. A power that is clearly stronger than that of the bodyguards you’ve dealt with so far.
Now that the transformation was over, becoming stronger was a natural step. Even if the power transmitted from one blow became stronger, Jin did not think it would make him nervous. That is, unless he controlled his power with reason.
Beament’s characteristic curved sword was seen first before the transformed body. Jin immediately recognized that it was the sword of the leader Rick Helter, but the moment he naturally checked his face.
I couldn’t help but be startled for a moment.
‘You don’t have a face? Besides, this appearance…’
When the magic circle was completed and the corpse swelled and shrank repeatedly, Jin naturally expected that the bodyguards would change into ugly figures. Just like living golems and unfinished masters did.
It wasn’t.
After the transformation, the corpses had a shape similar to that of a human being carved out of marble. It was just a smooth and strange face without any hair or features.
It was like a doll with a skeleton and stuffed with cotton.
“Isn’t there a member of the opposite sex?”
Rick, who became a Mine, didn’t answer. It has no organ whatsoever to be called a mouth, so it will not be able to produce a voice.
It doesn’t even have eyes, but it seems to have a good sight, whether it’s moving by senses or there’s some special way.
Rick calmly distanced himself. In the meantime, the other two finished their transformations and began to settle down next to Rick.
‘I don’t know if he’s of the opposite sex, but it doesn’t seem like he’s only wild like a beast.’
In battle, the guards were showing a more calm appearance than before they were turned into demons.
A completely different aspect from the victims of other biological experiments that Jin has seen so far.
For example, combat weapons that can be used immediately. Despite being unfinished, Beament’s demons were nothing compared to Ziple’s Living Golem or Kingelo’s Master.
Whoa…!
Bradamante’s aura deepened even more.
“jin.”
“why?”
“The speed at which the three Demons I just killed burned to ashes was too fast. It’s probably designed to oxidize so that no information remains if it’s damaged beyond a certain level.”
“You mean to capture one alive?”
“If possible. I’d rather leave evidence as you said. If you can’t capture them alive, give them a signal before killing them. I’ll preserve it with magic so that even parts of my body don’t oxidize.”
Jin nodded. It was possible with Valeria’s magic.
The demons rushed towards Jin while performing a checkup.
The absolute proposition that ‘the forest must not be damaged’ seemed to be deeply embedded in their minds. Only the condensed sword was being used so that the forest would not be damaged.
Shuaak!
The back of the demon who was the first to attack with a single sword was torn apart.
The guy clearly blocked Jin’s swinging Bradamante. The Demons were not lacking in physical ability to the extent that they couldn’t even parry the sword that Jin threw straight ahead.
Even so, Mine couldn’t figure out why her back was cut and she fell mercilessly to the floor.
It was because Jin did not use the spirit sword at all when dealing with the human bodyguards.
It was the Spirit Sword Type 2 scissors that cut through his waist. The moment Bradamante was blocked, the blade of aura stretched out from behind like a mirror and cut off his waist.
And the moment I was about to attack the next mine.
Chee-in!
From the other side of the forest, out of nowhere, several flashes of light flew aiming at Jin, Valeria, and the demons.
Jin cut off Valeria’s share and even counterattacked with swordsmanship, while the Demons managed to avoid the beam by rolling on the floor.
“Zipple’s second uninvited guest has arrived.”
It was a part where I had no choice but to think that it was better once again.
Anyway, before entering the tomb, I planned to organize all the pursuers and go.
“You might have to fight while protecting the demons. If Ziple kills the demons without a signal and they oxidize, we may not be able to preserve the evidence.”
“I saved your strength for that. Now, show off your skills, Aria.”
