Chapter 992,
Chapter 246. Battle for the Great Desert of Mithra (2)
‘…Mage!?’
‘Since Jito is dead, there’s no way he’s in the real demon world. Could it be because of the device that Kingelo’s demon was using?’
Ohhh…!
The demonic energy was rapidly amplifying. Magi Jin, who was at a level that even the progenitors could not ignore, looked at the atmosphere of Sea Mart.
He didn’t show it, but it didn’t seem like he wanted it, seeing as Seamart also turned his gaze to Magi.
Seamart looked at Jin and thought the same thing. The two of them mixed their swords and naturally moved towards Magi. Both want to confirm Magi’s identity.
As Jin and Shimat approached the source of demonic energy, the red brain waves in the area continued to fade.
Like the shock wave, it was also absorbed by the necromancy equipment that Ranke left behind when he ran away, the source of the demonic energy.
The enemy tribesmen were increasing the concentration of the faded red brain wavelength again without Shimat’s order, but they couldn’t help but be shocked.
The red brain wave is one of the pride of the enemy tribe. Even the red brain waves directly spread by the two air fortresses were barely affected by Ranke’s crude equipment.
[Geuaaaaa!]
[Who woke us up!]
Suddenly, a loud voice rang through the battlefield. By then, Jin and Simat had reached the vicinity of the necromancy equipment and were able to identify the voice’s owner.
‘What is that ghost…?’
‘The demon’s soul!? Was that demon named Ranke Halowice trying necromancy!’
ghost or spirit.
Those summoned from the magic circle near the necromancy device had such whitish shapes. Just like Orgal before recovery.
It was the moment when Ranke’s necromancy was successful. It was in a way that no one in Kingelo, let alone Ranke, expected.
‘Okay. The Asmodian tried necromancy, but lacked the strength required for necromancy. We made up for that lack of strength by using the energy of our enemies and Jin Runkandel. I just thought he was doing a trick to call us and the Barmal Alliance, but it seems that Kingelo has a pretty good brain…!’
Of course, Simart is misunderstood.
The success of necromancy now was purely due to Kingelo’s luck. As Simart thought, ‘power’ was lacking in necromancy, but Ranke had no idea what caused the failure.
Even the ancient necromancy techniques Ranke used were not perfect. However, the current coincidence was formed due to an error in the technique.
The glitch was causing the necromancy device to siphon ‘all kinds of power’ from nearby. The absorbed power was passed on to the summoned demons.
[This body is Srivida, the great demon of Mount Tekan! I ask again Who woke me up? We will fight for that hypocrite!]
“I woke him up.”
“grow.”
Jin and Simart said at the same time. The two kicked their tongues at each other’s shameless lies.
[Anyway, there are a lot of people who have lied in the past and now. I, Srivi, actually know the name of the noble man who brought us out of the abyss. He is Ranke Halowice. However, finding summoners pretending not to know is just following tradition.]
[Hey, isn’t that what Threevi are? The Gene Runkandel that Ranke Halowice begged us to get rid of, and the dedication of the race called the Red Name. They look very similar to those cursed by Ranke Halowice.]
[Ah, then what we have to do is to rip you to death!]
The Great Devil, Sribi, rushed at Simat.
Its speed was quite fierce, but its bony body, which was clearly visible even in its soul state, was not very threatening.
Simat lightly created a sword wind to block Srivi’s approach. The red sword spread in a circle and attacked Sri Vi.
However, Sribi seemed to pass through Simat’s sword wind as if it were an illusion. Simat was not taken aback and swung his sword again to cut him in two, but Srivi was not hit at all this time.
Knock-! Soon after, Srivi slammed his fist into Simat’s face. Seeing that Srivi didn’t cut himself, Simat deliberately punched him.
[oh my! How hard it is!]
There was a dull hitting sound, but it was Sribi who was in pain.
“It’s strange. My sword skill didn’t cut me at all as if it were an illusion, but when I attack, it becomes like a being with mass.”
Simat didn’t dodge Srivi’s attack once more and counterattacked exactly the moment his fist touched his body.
But this time, the result was the same. Simat’s sword went into Sreevi’s body and hit the air, and Sreevi grabbed my fist.
Seeing that, Jin remembered the day when he and Mary dealt with Ozdok in the Black Sea in the past. Ozdok also had the ability to ignore physical attacks.
‘It’s different from Ozdock. As Simart just confirmed, Sribi doesn’t develop a weakness at the moment of attack like Ozdok.’
An existence that completely violates the laws of physics.
All summoned demons possessed such characteristics.
[What is this guy so strong! The guy next to me seems to be on the same level. Ranke Halowice, do you have a conscience? It’s too much for retired old people in the back room!]
Then, the other demons who were summoned together rushed at Jin and Shimat.
Jin deliberately struck back with the spirit sword, but even the spirit sword seemed to pass by the translucent bodies of the demons.
If so, the summoned demons can literally attack one-sidedly.
-[Jean Runkandel I was looking at you high enough, but you were even more amazing…! Do you think you’ll be fine even facing the witch’s abyss?]
Jin suddenly remembered what Jito said in the past.
‘Sribi said she was summoned from the abyss. As an existence from the realm of witches, it seems that it possesses abilities that violate the order of the world. But there will be restrictions on anything. Either the space is limited or the fighting power is not as good as it is now.’
The necromancy device continued to absorb red brain waves.
It was also in a state where it had changed into a form that could no longer be called a ‘device’. The metal and various parts that made up the device were completely melted and mixed into the magic circle.
And even the magic circle turned translucent, just like the demons. The ceremony could no longer be released or broken.
“Retrieve the red brain wave that has spread to my fellow Bakarun.”
It was a measure to prevent the demons from using the red brain wave. Each time the red brain waves were absorbed, the energy of the demons was gradually getting stronger.
Pzie-!
On the other hand, Jin rather raised his brain power.
“These are interesting friends. is not it? Sea Mart. It would be nice to include these guys in our fight.”
“Well, from your point of view, if you have this variable, it will be less burdensome for you to deal with me, Gene Runkandel.”
[Goooh! It’s killing me!]
The demons roared as they sucked in the brain energy.
‘Anyway, even if you retrieve the red brain wavelength, the demons are pulling the energy from far away. Maybe he’s absorbing the power of the entire Great Desert.’
Absorbing such a wide range of energy was impossible even with the enemy’s skills.
Simart was offended by this out of the blue variable. For some reason, he was wrapped up in the intuition that the demons would cause a great hindrance to this work.
jjwoong-!
Jin’s light-speed thrust pounded Simart’s chest. Simart erected Thetalon to block the lightspeed thrust, while Phoebeel fired a supporting bombardment.
As Jin cut the bombardment in half, the red brain chunks that splattered in all directions were absorbed into the demon’s soul.
Now Sribi doesn’t feel the same pain as before when she hits Simat. It’s still a power that can’t even scratch Simat’s body, but it’s that much stronger.
‘It feels like these demons are attacking me much more than the strangely lost Runkandel.’
Actually it was.
Jin was also aware of the fact that the demons were more hospitable to him than Shimat.
‘Could it be because of killing Zito?’
At the moment of curiosity, Sribi gave Jin a wink.
[You don’t know, but you and I are old friends. When the abyss opened in the world of demons, I saw you. So, after you kill this Sima, I will kill you.]
“I don’t know whether to say thank you or absurd for this.”
[There is nothing wrong with you, so I should say thank you! However, since the other two guys saw you for the first time, they’ll do whatever they want.]
As the saying goes, the two remaining demons were attacking Jin and Shimat at random.
The demons were the first type of enemy that both spears had experienced. It’s annoying like a mosquito, but you can’t kill or stop it.
The spearheads frantically stepped on their steps to avoid the blue brainstorm that rained everywhere and the magical red brainstorm for aura, while the demons laughed and ran openly between the explosions.
They even had the ability to float. Even when the ground collapsed and a pit formed, it did not fall into it. So, he always dug into the gaps of the progenitors and provoked them.
[You know what? Sea Mart. No matter how strong you are, it’s not infinite. Just as a dripping drop of water eventually pierces a rock, I will pierce you. Like this!]
Beans! bean! Srivi’s fists hit Simat in the back of the head in succession. He was riding on Simart’s back.
And Simat can’t shake off Srivi. It doesn’t get caught and doesn’t fall off even when shaken.
Jin thought while watching Simart’s crumpled expression in real time. If I get caught, I’ll never do it.
No matter how talented you are, if someone clings to your back and continues punching you, your senses will be slightly distracted. Jin began to push Simart even harder.
“…He goes through all sorts of weird things.”
Awesome! Simart gritted his teeth.
Then he suddenly started running like crazy through the desert. Hoping that there would be a ‘distance restriction’ for the demons.
“Bakarun! At my location, open a small dimensional portal leading out of the Great Desert of Mithra.”
After a while, the dimensional door opened. When Simart went into it, Jin did not follow and moved away from the remaining demons.
Then, naturally, I returned to the place where the summoning circle was for the first time, and Sribi was there. The demons were set to return to their original place once they left the Great Desert.
[Eight, our weakness was revealed too easily. I can’t kill you like this? Jin Runkandel Are you going to run away now too?]
For the demons, as long as Shimat or Jin get out of the desert, they can’t do anything. However, the Bamal Alliance and the enemy tribes are in no position to give up or leave the Great Desert.
Three minutes later, when Simat reappeared on the battlefield, Sribi grinned.
[What’s the point of coming back here while shaking off me? Does that mean you have something to do in this desert?]
Simat didn’t answer. Somewhere on his expressionless face, there seemed to be deep anger.
[No matter what it is, you won’t succeed. Because this Sribi and the friendly friends of Abyss will disturb you until the end, hahaha!]
