Chapter 244. Surprise attack on the enemy (1)
That evening, the red owl’s dimensional gate opened in the sky above Chatin Grassland.
“Oh, this ship is not bad. It has a long space jump distance, is fast, and even has an invisibility function… I’ve never used a built-in cannon, so I don’t know, but that must be great too. It was made by Amela and Dr. Quawl.”
While Eltiot was talking, Luna thought that he was a very good person. I didn’t know that I would make a surprise attack on the enemy today.
didn’t like that Infiltration and ambush have been Luna’s favorite missions since her cadet days. Most of all, Luna expected to be able to examine the abilities of Eltiot, who was still a bit long, by participating in this infiltration.
“It’s one of Jin’s most cherished items among the Alliance’s assets.”
“okay? In that case, this master might be hated by your brother.”
“What are you talking about?”
“If you don’t do well, it will be impossible to bring the red owl and return safely today.”
At that, Luna snorted.
“You underestimate me so much, Master. This kind of treatment is refreshing.”
“You are right in thinking that you are overestimating yourself.”
“Speak.”
“Also, you are underestimating the enemy. It’s probably because the enemies you’ve seen and heard about in the meantime look shabby. But you have to be nervous, disciple. Most of them are, of course, much weaker than you, but that is only in case of pure force.”
For some reason, it was elaborate, but it was worth listening to the evaluation of the enemy. They were the ones who swallowed Drakka and all of the nearby major boroughs overnight.
The city that Luna and Eltiot decided to hit was Barkle Borough. It was an area about fifty kilometers from where we are now.
“Well, seeing that the cannons haven’t landed yet, it seems that the Barkle Borough hasn’t deployed any full-fledged defense equipment yet.”
“Are you saying that the attack would have already started if they had been deployed? Even if it is fifty kilometers away?”
“Yes, their detection ability is at a level that modern humans cannot surpass. It would have been better to change the area if you had placed first-class equipment in Barkle. Still, second-class equipment would have been deployed, so if we got a little closer, the shelling would start.”
“All right.”
“Now then, it is time to start the first training session. let’s go! While going, of course, it is footwork training. It’s not a good idea to run recklessly fast and exciting. You, disciple, must learn to handle your power with dignity.”
Eltiot said while taking five steps. He moved forward smoothly, like a water strider gliding across water.
“It is to run without leaving footprints until you enter enemy territory.”
“It’s not that difficult.”
Luna immediately followed Eltiot’s steps.
“That’s not too bad. From now on, speed up as it is, but your breathing should be calm. It runs smoothly and flexibly.”
Luna started to run ahead of Eltiot.
Although it was fast enough that even some superhumans could not catch up with it, it felt disappointing compared to Luna’s maximum speed.
‘Breathing is the biggest problem. It’s not easy to focus on footwork while worrying about this.’
Breath.
Eltiott had been pointing out breathing as Luna’s biggest problem. It was not easy for her to comprehend what it was like to breathe calmly.
Isn’t it just breathing evenly and quietly? When Luna thought about that, Eltiott would scream like a ghost.
“You already have an aura stronger than Jin. Maybe even surpass your father. And that power always oscillates within you. Human ears cannot hear it, but every time you exhale, a volcano explodes inside you.”
Eltiot said as he adjusted his pace.
“Oh, you finally give me an explanation of breathing that I can understand.”
“It looks like it will soon go into practice, but I can’t realize it, so I told you out of frustration. Calm the energy that fluctuates in sync with your breath. That is the basis for using the sword like the wind.”
Of course, it is not easy to change habits that you have not been conscious of throughout your life.
Still, since she had a concrete clue for the first time, Luna focused and formed images while running. The image of the ferocious auras inside the body gradually receding like a lake.
Then, a mysterious feeling came to my senses. Suddenly, I felt like my body was getting smaller, and time seemed to pass slowly.
At that moment, Eltiot let out a loud thump.
The enemy’s defense equipment installed in the Barkle Autonomous District began to operate. It was already after a ray of red light had fallen somewhere.
The ray landed right next to Luna, and as the ground exploded, a stone hit Luna’s shoulder.
“Did you forget? There are few here. What would happen if I let my mind go crazy only in training?”
Luna could not recognize the stone as a ‘crisis’ at all. Even if they were hit properly, there would not be even the slightest shock, so they ignored it, but Eltiott thought that was Luna’s problem.
“It would be easier for you to just keep pushing forward with a strong body on the battlefield where artillery fire is pouring in, but fighting by trusting your body like that is the sewage method. You have to move like a master. The enemy must not be able to predict you.”
Of course, Luna has created many unpredictable situations so far. However, it was not the way Eltiot wanted. She always wielded more power than her enemies thought.
“A strong and destructive thing will eventually break when it meets something stronger and more destructive. Is the strength of one of you stronger than all the enemy tribes in Barkle? no. Therefore, if you fight only with strength, you are bound to fail today.”
Shiiik Chii…!
Red brain cannons were flying more and more. Eltiott perfectly evaded all artillery fire even with his head turned to Luna the whole time.
On the other hand, Luna was narrowly dodging because of her awkward footwork and breathing and Eltiot’s nagging. Otherwise, you could get hurt before reaching the city.
Even so, Luna didn’t try to move comfortably like she usually did. Because I decided to follow his training.
I was also getting used to it little by little.
‘Is this how it felt to move without power? Even if I make a small mistake, my body seems to be weak.’
As the two approached, a red protective film was covered over the whole Barkle.
‘At first glance, it’s a high-density protective film. I think I can break it if I use my strength properly.’
It was clear that if he exploded his energy, Eltiott would be in trouble again.
“You must destroy the shield to get inside, Master.”
“What would you like to do?”
“I think you would say that smashing the sword with all your might is the sewage method.”
“Yes. The best option would be to use exactly the same power as the brain qi that formed some points of that shield to cancel it out.”
“It’s similar to the deep heat that fighters usually use.”
“Because of the specificity of the red brain, this is something you cannot do right away. I’ll take care of the shield, so just focus on your mission. To slash the enemies who stand in the way and collect equipment.”
Luna’s breathing did not stop until she reached the shield. It was the first time I had ever run this distance and my whole body was wet with sweat.
Paz that is!
Eltiott floated a blue brain flag on the palm of his hand. The power became entangled with the red brain that formed the protective film for a while, turned purple, and then gradually became transparent and disappeared.
Then, a crack wide enough for two people to fit into the huge protective shield that covered the entire city was formed.
From Luna’s point of view, Eltiot was destroying the shield with less power than a teaspoon scooped out of the sea.
“I’ll let you know about this later when you’re a little more polished and you can handle Brainstorming.”
“Brain?”
“Your brother is also a human, but doesn’t he deal with brain power? Of course you should too.”
“But there are no troops on standby inside the shield.”
“of course. We haven’t reached the heart of the city yet, so there’s no reason to engage in hand-to-hand combat. Sitting on each control tower and clicking a few buttons is far more effective. Just like this.”
The moment Eltiot finished speaking, Luna suddenly felt her body heavy. It felt as if a thousand pounds of iron was pressing down on my shoulders.
It was because of the red brain wave. Red brain waves were entangling Luna like deep water.
It would have been enough if he exploded his energy and ignored it, but Luna had to choose a different number this time.
‘Offset.’
Luna read the rough flow of the red brain waves and wrapped herself in a similar aura. It’s not as perfect as Eltiot’s, but somehow his body is lighter than before.
clap clap clap!
Eltiott clapped with a solemn face.
“There are also guns. I can’t handle brain ki yet, but that’s pretty good. Okay, let’s keep going like this until they crawl out of the control tower.”
The two couldn’t hear it, but an alarm was ringing incessantly between the control towers inside Barkle.
Fleet appeared from far away. The main guns of the entire fleet were aiming at Luna and Eltiot.
“Oh, by the way.”
slap! Eltiott dodged a beam of light. Luna naturally expected Eltiot to knock it down due to the direction, but had to dodge half a beat late.
“This master will not engage in a possible battle.”
“That sounds very grateful.”
“It is good for you that I do not participate. Because if I go into battle, it means you could die soon.”
As Luna tried to answer, the fleet’s shelling began. And the enemies of the fleet screamed loudly as they confirmed the identities of the two.
“Baekgyeong and the author… It’s clear! It’s the spirit of clarity that escaped from Maysil!”
“Eltiot!?”
“I will ask Kritil to use first-class defense equipment!”
“Immediately contact the compatriots who committed suicide!”
While the enemies were shouting, Simat’s face appeared on the bridge’s window.
“Enemies!”
Simat smiled after being saluted by his compatriots.
[Yes… It seems that the old Eltiott has been missing me for the first time in a while. I will go there now so that you can take good care of them.]
