Chapter 374. There was light,
the longed-for sage.
Inazuma era.
Hisagi’s nickname.
‘…slander.’
It is like a poisonous snake that is coiled and glaring at its prey. It was a nickname that compared Hisagi who looked at everything from a distance. However, the unfolding scenery was unexpected even by Hisagi.
drip.
Bleeding that started from the side of Ho-yeol. The bloodstains that soaked the floor continued from beyond the horizon. Hisagi rolled her head, which couldn’t turn. There was a name that came to mind.
‘…Grand Fell Cloudy Arpheus Romeo.’
A member of the Cloudy family. It was he who came to the conclusion that the commander-in-chief had left Cloudy territory in pursuit of him. Because there was a clear trigger that the mythic level quest had begun.
You will automatically bite your lips.
‘Did he make the commander-in-chief look like that?’
In Hisagi’s memory, the heat of passion was never broken.
not to get hurt
Rarely did even a speck of dust get on the uniform.
“…”
But now it is different.
It is unknown what happened to the hair that grew long enough to reach the floor. Still, one thing was certain. The current Ho-yeol is not in perfect condition.
“What?”
Berserker the Berserker.
either yourself or your enemy.
Leonie fighting a bloody battle.
“…He’s not even a berserker.”
she murmured.
It was a joke to ease the tension, but it didn’t work.
They must have felt their presence.
Still, Ho-yeol did not look back.
As always, he doesn’t calmly say that there is nothing to worry about.
drip.
Only the sound of dripping blood was heard.
“damn.”
The dwarf leader, Chainwalker, swallowed.
They are dwarves who have suffered from burning minerals all their lives. Their steel-hardened patience began to crack. in front of unimaginable circumstances.
In the end, Wallsweil, the best blacksmith of the Dwarves, shouted.
“Captain! The smelting you requested has been completed. I am confident that it is the masterpiece of my life. It was thanks to you for giving me the legacy dragon skin that Noryong left behind.”
It was a disingenuous dwarven concern.
However, there was still no answer or sign of turning around.
Ho-yeol was just moving on.
Shuung.
I hear the urgent voice of the reconnaissance aircraft Gunner in the sky.
“What are you all doing? Are you going to leave the commander-in-chief alone like this? more dangerous If you keep moving in that direction, the commander-in-chief will end up in that vicious mouth…!”
“…!!!”
understand that word.
I was overlooking it while staring at Ho-yeol.
It was 『Hidden Peace Behemoth’s Mouth』.
An unstable permanent rift, a dimensional rift that connects the Arcana continent and the Pandemonium.
Those who head to the Arcana Continent from Pandemonium and vice versa.
Literally in the mouth of hemp water that can be horribly chopped.
The direction Ho-yeol was advancing was the deeper maw world.
Why the hell…?
No matter how desperately you struggle, no answer comes out.
But those gathered did not hesitate.
How should I dry the heat?
Chain Walker muttered sadly.
“If you can’t turn away, think about stopping them.”
Kkuk—
Dwarves holding hammers.
Hisagi and Leoni.
The elites of the Great Alliance.
Even Skal nodded.
He confronts the commander-in-chief, Ho-yeol.
Normally, I wouldn’t even have dared to do it.
To oppose Ho-yeol’s will and to stop him.
But now it’s not normal.
Most of all, because the condition of Ho-yeol was not serious.
that buck
Chainwalker leads.
It was the moment when the whole army set foot toward Hoyeol.
Kwadeuk.
“?!”
The sound of their footsteps changed.
The ground he stepped on was too indented.
It feels as if the force of gravity applied to the body has multiplied dozens of times.
It was absolutely high pressure.
“Ugh?!”
Everyone’s body stiffened at once.
A feeling of heaviness, as if from a far-off height.
There was no consideration or mercy.
I felt like an ant trampled by an elephant.
The Chain Walker instinctively shouted.
“Everyone back down!!”
Even with all my might, my legs couldn’t move properly.
There were also those who would rather fall behind.
As soon as I took a step back, the pressure disappeared like a lie.
Skal breathed heavily.
“You don’t want access.”
No, it wasn’t to an unwanted level.
It was a sharp reaction warning beyond an unfamiliar reaction.
Hisagi shakes her head.
“…No, it can’t even be called a warning. Right now, the commander-in-chief is not even paying attention to us. If you get in the way, you will only be trampled on.”
Not even a warning.
is indifferent
Of course, it was no consolation.
Everyone was in a bit of a shock.
Nam Tae-min, who had been silent, opened his mouth.
“…smells different.”
Barbarian.
The barbarian’s senses are closer to that of a beast than a man’s.
Visual, auditory, and olfactory senses are no exception.
Nam Tae-min’s eyebrows narrowed.
Both hands headed for the greatsword he was carrying on his back.
“Are you sure. That’s not the commander-in-chief.”
“…what? What are you talking about?”
It was Leonie who jumped forward and asked back.
Shuk.
Nam Tae-min lowered his head for a while and met Leonie’s eyes. Eyes looking for evidence But there is no evidence. Because this was the realm of pure senses.
Even so, Nam Tae-min was convinced.
“The Ho-yeol I know doesn’t do this.”
Before Frost Recapture.
A being that should not be awakened.
The London Miracle….
even if every move seems cold.
Looking back, there was warmth in all of Ho-yeol’s actions.
Like a ray of light in the infinitely deep darkness.
But now Ho-yeol’s appearance was like a darkness that had lost its light.
Except for the hair, there is no change in its appearance.
I couldn’t feel any warmth or light from within.
Nam Tae-min raised the corner of his mouth bitterly.
“Above all, if you were going to trample on us, you probably trampled on us a long time ago. Have we bothered Mr. Ho-yeol once or twice?”
It was then.
[The Behemoth’s stomach twists.]
“!”
A message that floats in front of the players’ eyes all at once. The variable called Behemoth’s jaw, which could not be overlooked even in an urgent situation, began to fluctuate.
Smooth.
The Behemoth’s stomach was shaking.
A wriggling figure could be seen between the strewn fragments of flesh.
A shadow creeping up from the demon realm.
His flesh spurts out in all directions.
Still, the guy didn’t give up.
Eventually, an insidious voice is heard.
“I have been waiting only for this day, Buer…! Today is the time to usurp your throne. Plague army. get through the pain If your flesh has been ripped off, become bones and move!”
[The Devil’s Lich Discus appears.]
Behemoth’s mouth was an unusual place. The recommended level is bound to be high. An appearance message was displayed in the field of view of players who entered the mouth. Not only that.
“It’s a great army!”
It was also not an exaggeration to say that it was an army of plague. Discus’ flesh and summoned creatures exploded, covering the area with darkness. Thick poison spread uncontrollably.
[The abnormal status ‘poisoning’ occurs.]
Hisagi shouted to the dwarves who couldn’t see the message.
“A demon comparable to a high-ranking demon has appeared. It seems to have taken quite a bit of damage through the Behemoth’s mouth, but it’s not an easy opponent.”
clap.
The Dwarf-made armor would offset most of the status ailments. The chain walker pressed down on the helmet without being shaken. Yes, the thing I was more concerned about than the appearance of the devil was the heat.
“I have to support the commander-in-chief.”
drip.
The bleeding still hasn’t stopped.
The last Akk’shan Demon Hunter.
I couldn’t imagine Ho-yeol being attacked by the devil…
Didn’t Nam Tae-min, an adventurer, say?
He said that this man might not be the ho-yeol he knew.
so.
“Because if you grab hold of it and ask, the Dwarf stubbornness will be resolved.”
Even in order to directly ask for identity.
Chain Walker was thinking of jumping into the Behemoth’s mouth.
It was the intention to fight against the lich.
It was the same with Nam Tae-min.
“Even if you don’t, it’s disturbing, but you’re a hindrance? Damn right.”
[Berring Explosion] activated.
Hoo-wook.
Nam Tae-min’s breathing becomes rough and he fixes the greatsword with one hand.
With one free arm, step on the ground and lower your body to the fullest.
Hisagi Leoni Skal.
Subsequently, the elites of the great coalition also prepared for battle.
The appearance of Rich Discus was no doubt good.
battle with the bastard.
And what I’m more concerned about than Buer, the high-ranking demon lord he’s chasing.
Even at this moment, we are advancing towards the demon realm.
It was an unstoppable pace of passion.
fault.
It was the moment before the all-out assault.
Discus gave half of his flesh to Behemoth’s mouth.
The guy’s half-bone muzzle flared open.
“I am a nasty shot. The smell of green sulfur. And…”
He spat out while looking around the arcana continent covered in darkness.
“There is a mixture of your terrible smell. Buer.”
stop.
“What?”
Chain Walker’s muscles soared.
What that means is simple.
The high-ranking demon lord pursued by the Rich Discus.
It was said that the buer had been burned by the green flames of hellfire.
Allied Crusade.
And Discus’ gaze goes to the same place.
The army of Discus, who lost its political rival to Ho-yeol, heads for it.
“bloke…!! What tricks did you use!!”
Squeak.
As befits the one who controls the death of the lich, the flesh scattered in the mouth of the Behemoth became its army. An army of undead poured out. Hisagi’s snake eyes quickly grasped the situation.
“It is a battlefield that is too advantageous for him.”
Discus knows that.
Discus also chose Behemoth’s Mouth as the place to usurp the Tenth Seat of Buer, the top demon king. I hear the voice of the gunner who was watching the situation from above.
“There are too many, but too many. Thousands or hundreds of thousands!”
Chainwalker made a decision.
“It is impossible to confront him in the current situation where Lord Hoyeol is not intact. Our first priority is to leave this Behemoth’s Mouth with Sir Ho Yeol!”
nod
No more words were needed.
The forces of the Allied Crusade and Discus.
Each rushes toward Hoyeol for different reasons.
“…?”
But there were no crashes.
Discus looks at his army.
I clearly ordered it to be torn apart.
up
Everyone stopped with only a hollow bone sound.
As if millions of troops were blocked by a transparent screen.
I couldn’t even step out of my seat.
“…!”
The same was true of himself. All I could do was stop and stare. Behemoth’s mouth, to be exact, the figure of a man heading to the demon realm.
dismissal.
Undead that have survived even in the Demon Realm without being destroyed by demons.
The foresight of their leader, Discus, flashed.
An afterimage appeared in his mind.
It was the scenery of the Demon Realm being destroyed by just one man.
…Dangerous.
Discus tried desperately to stop the man.
But I couldn’t.
I can’t say anything about the oppressed body.
What I saw in the field of view of Discus, who barely lowered his head.
Patter.
Because it was his own body that had already been shattered and scattered into the air. Every time the man took a step toward the Demon Realm, the army disappeared.
To be precise, it was buried in infinitely deep darkness.
Discus had to understand.
“…Bure, you were not tricked.”
This man was a being that even the Tenth Seat could not handle.
Discus remembered Baal at the last moment.
I hoped that Baal’s capriciousness would not forsake the Demon Realm.
“…Nonsense.”
Gunner was watching the scene from above.
In just a few steps, tens of millions of troops scattered and disappeared.
Gunner murmured involuntarily.
“That’s a catastrophe…”
he exclaimed.
“No one can get close!”
Information obtained through reconnaissance should not be interpreted arbitrarily.
There was only one thing Gunner could be sure of.
You can tell just by looking at the crushed ground.
That calamity will not discriminate between friend and foe.
Tadadak.
But it’s already too late.
There was someone approaching Hoyeol from the Allied Temple.
To be precise, there was someone who ran like a beast.
Taemin Nam.
Kwadeuk.
The ferocity amplified by [Berring] makes it impossible to cover fire and water. Even the pain inflicted on muscles and bones can be forgotten for a moment. So Taemin Nam could barely open his mouth.
“You…”
Kwaddeuk.
Even while his body was being crushed, he properly asked the question.
“Who is it? As expected….”
The development after that was also not expected by anyone.
infinitely deep darkness.
To bring a ray of light back into the darkness.
The reason why it was only a question, not a grandiose action or ceremony.
Only.
“As expected, Grandfell Cloudy Arpheus d…”
The reason only the person involved could know, no, because it was history.
