Chapter 502,
Chapter 139. Threat (1)
Huge dark clouds that seemed to overturn the mountain range covered the sky over the Sota Desert.
It was a dark cloud formed by Kingelo’s ship Grenil.
The dark clouds spewed out blue-blue thunder without rest. A tidal wave appeared to spread across the sky.
In the midst of it, the fire-extinguished Ziple’s mass-produced ships just crashed and crashed to the ground.
Twenty mass production ships have already been sunk.
Over 1,500 dragons and over 1,500 mage flagship Ko-Jek.
Most of Draka’s reinforcements went to Grenil with a nervous heart.
I thought that no force other than Runkandel could harm Ziple.
Before the Seongguk Incident, Kingelo, who was only a third-rate terrorist group, is polluting the airspace of the Magic Federation with Lutero.
Of course, after the Black Emperor Terror, it was known to the general public that Kingelo was not lacking in the three major powers.
Grenil seemed stronger than when he first appeared in the Geomwang Castle.
The magical energy emitted from the projections protruding from all over the hull distorted the space around it, and the entire Sota Desert was vibrating at the fragments of the falling mass production ship.
A sandstorm mixed with brains created ferocious whirlwinds everywhere, and mass-produced ships were slowly sucked into it.
‘Someday this kind of day had to come…’
Octavia Ziple.
She was standing in Captain Kozek’s office, checking the situation with expressionless eyes.
Some of the highest-ranking wizards, including Octavia, who knew of Kingelo’s power from before, did not seem to be surprised.
Of course, it’s not that I’m not upset.
Rather, they were more angry than the members who underestimated Kingelo.
It was not the act of Kingelo’s invasion of Sota Desert itself, but if he read what the reason behind it was, he had no choice but to do so.
‘It’s clear that their leader hasn’t recovered yet since the Black Emperor Terror. But still going wild like this, as if they were ready for an all-out war.’
Runcandel.
because they exist.
Kingelo was taking advantage of the fact that no matter how rampant they were, as long as Runcandel was holding out, Zipple couldn’t recklessly launch an all-out war.
Right now.
You can’t handle both forces at once. No, it would be possible, but after the war, Zipline had no choice but to suffer devastating damage close to defeat.
In that case, world hegemony will be seized by someone else, not those who have lived through the tension of war for the past thousand years.
Even with hundreds of flying fleets, reproducing the Source Stone, and even developing immortal living golems to the brink of completion.
The fact that he could not gain an overwhelming advantage in the long nightmare-like tug-of-war, and the fact that his bare face was being used by enemies, was causing a terrifyingly deep hatred.
‘We have to be stronger too. We must recover the lost family’s magic and power as soon as possible.’
That’s why I wanted to make sure that Captain Kingelo’s body was completed before Shiron’s time was over. The fact that they will become the masters of the earth.
A fleet of dragons and wizards was besieging Grenil.
Perhaps the word siege was not appropriate. In the first place, Grenil showed no signs of running away even after seeing them all rushing.
Octavia slipped out of the captain’s quarters and took her position at the head of Kojek. Then he raised his shining staff to the sky.
“Bishkel Ibliano!”
Octavia’s melodious voice, amplified by magical power, echoed through the sky. Vishkel was on board in Grenil’s captain’s office.
Even with Octavia’s appearance, he did not lose his characteristic cold expression.
“I’ve been wondering why the leader of Kingelo cares for you so much. Can I get a glimpse of your abilities today?”
Bishkel had nothing to answer.
He didn’t have any special abilities yet.
As the vice-captain, he was meticulous in everything and always had the virtue of keeping a cool head.
Compared to the other executives of Kingelo, who are generally hot-tempered or somewhat angular, he can also be called an ability. For some reason, he tends to be easily attracted to non-human beings.
Anyway, the sight of Vishkel standing still without answering amplified Octavia’s strange anticipation.
“I hope that a glimpse of your strength will be worth this shame.”
Wow-!
As magic power radiated from Octavia’s staff, the thunder of Grenil that was pounding the area subsided for a moment.
Although it was only for a short time, it was using magic power that was greater than Grenil’s power.
That magic soon turned into a huge net that wrapped around Grenil and caught the fragments of a falling mass production ship.
Phoebe Chee Yiing!
An alarm sounded on board Grenil, announcing an impact.
The protective shield that had withstood even Ron’s intangible sword hadn’t opened even the slightest crack, but the hull was tilting under the force of the net.
‘Octavia Ziffle is indeed the world’s number two.’
A drop of cold sweat ran down Bishkel’s forehead.
I wondered how much time the newly recruited person would be able to buy against them.
Haaam-!
A woman behind Bishkel yawned with a tear-jerking force.
She was wearing a fancy dress unsuitable for battle, and a pair of dainty palm-sized wings rose from her back.
“Looks like it’s about time! Hey vice-captain. We just have to fight them until he finds them in Runkandel, right?”
“…Ainas. It would be better to approach the situation with a more serious attitude.”
Aynas Caligo That was the woman’s name.
“joy! Are you saying that the second princess of the great Caligo family should be serious about lower people? Oh, there are dragons too.”
Ainas’ arrogant and light attitude had been making Vishkel uneasy even before he came to the desert.
“Ah, don’t look at me like that. I got it, I got it. Can you do it right?”
Ainas lightly lifted the greatsword beside him and said. The way he stood up and swung around seemed quite relaxed.
“If possible, can I wipe it all away instead of just buying time? Hehe.”
“This is no time for jokes.”
“Watch out if it’s a joke or not. The vice-captain will wait leisurely while drinking a cup of warm tea, butchering them all before they cool down…”
Octavia narrowed her eyes as she saw Ainas, who had risen to the top of Grenil.
“It’s a demon… Could it be that the door was opened? This was your ability, Vishkel Ivliano!”
Octavia’s eyes flashed and began to emit magic power again. Ainas snorted as if he was laughing, then threw himself into the air towards Octavia.
“What a noisy human hag… yay!”
However, instead of reaching Octavia, Ainas was intercepted by the linking magic performed by other wizards and fell to the ground.
Ainas, who was covered in the breath and magic bombardment of the flying dragons even before she fell to the ground, finally shouted like this.
“Vice vice-captain! Help me! help! hurry!”
Bishkel had no choice but to let out a deep sigh while resting his forehead.
Even more regrettable was the fact that Bishkel’s despair did not end there.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…!
Suddenly, a tidal wave of swords rushed in from the ground. And unlike Octavia’s net, that sword strikes directly at Grenil’s shield.
It was Hedo’s sword.
Clumsy!
There was a crack in the lower part of Grenil’s hull, and Vishkel had no way of knowing why that demonic woman, Boubar, was with him.
‘I heard that it has withstood the sword of the emperor, so it is indeed a solid ship.’
After that, Hedo leaped up and rose to the top of Ko-Jek, scattering his sword skills again.
Octavia opened her eyes wide, startled at the sight of him seriously injured.
“It seems that Kingelo has made up his mind very firmly. I was surprised when the request for support came, but how could Kyeong be hurt that much? Besides, on the way back, I saw that the 2 Magic Tower was completely destroyed.”
Like Bishkel, Hedo had nothing to say to Octavia.
So I decided to bully him again.
“I hope you will be good at guarding your subordinates from now on, Captain Wraith.”
“A subordinate guard?”
“He carried out Miss Sandra’s orders without thinking. Thanks to you, I got this four months.”
It wasn’t quite wrong, but it couldn’t be said to be true.
However, Octavia had no choice but to decide that now was not the time to argue with Hedo.
“It seems that my men have hated you. We’ll hear more about it later. First, we need to find those who seriously injured you. Who are they and which way did they escape?”
The figure of Ainas, who was struggling to avoid the constant attacks, came into Hedo’s gaze.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah what are you doing!”
Asmodian.
It seemed like a suitable excuse.
I hoped so.
“…They seemed to be demons. They fled toward Kuta Forest, but the route after that is unclear.”
“Were the Runkandels there by any chance?”
“The riders and the black knight, the black dragon Murakan, were together.”
I couldn’t lie to that. Even if it’s not perfect, the truth will definitely come out, so if you say you’ve never met Runkandel, that’s more than simple deception, it’s a betrayal.
That puts Sandra at risk.
At the word ‘Murakan’, Octavia’s eyes widened once more.
“The fact that the black dragon has come means that the 12th Horseman is also in Sota Desert. It makes more sense why Kyeong struggled.”
“If you don’t go, you will miss it.”
Octavia drew a long arc in the sky with her staff.
Then, the light made of magical power moved and formed a command in the sky with runes.
Search for the fugitives of the entire observatory centered in the Kuta Forest area.
Capture Jin Runkandel alive!
As soon as the order was given, ten dragons broke away from the ranks and began flying at full speed toward the Kuta Forest.
Having already experienced the humiliation of missing Jin in front of their eyes, the wraiths burned their determination to capture him without fail this time.
Unfortunately, the Kuta Forest direction Hedo mentioned is the opposite of the direction Jin and Sandra fled to.
Hedo just cleared his throat and fired the sword with Grenil again.
