Chapter 690 – The Battle of Askatlov
Go go go go.
Scattered magic stones.
Blood.
Still.
There was nothing but silence in the place where colorful explosions had sounded just before.
Soldiers watching from the castle were blown away and passed out in the aftermath.
The defenses on the castle walls were all destroyed as if it were natural.
“Uh, uh…”
“Damn it…”
The fallen players opened their eyes and rose one by one.
It wasn’t that I was standing up on the battlefield where I fought earlier.
He had awakened at the safety point he bought with the subjugation points.
“Did I subconsciously write the return…?”
A return that can be bought with subjugation points.
Other than that, I couldn’t think of any other reason for being at the safe point.
My body moved automatically in response to that ridiculously powerful attack. Most of the users thought so.
If not, some users noticed the ‘truth’ and their faces turned pale.
“You’re filthy ignorant.”
“What the hell is that?”
“Such a mad disaster is a wide-area written by one guy…”
Players looked up at the sky.
A demon lord who burns intense and jet-black magic that cannot be seen with the naked eye, but cannot be unaware that it is there.
Demon King of Jin Purgatory.
His single attack devastated the battlefield.
Ten million monsters and thousands of users died.
It’s not like it took a lot of strength.
Usually, wide-area is a means of capturing convenience and power at the same time. In Elyunar, it is also a limited means of attack.
It is because of being hindered by Ryunar and naturally reducing its power and range.
If it’s not fast or strong enough not to be affected by interference, it’s usually a wasteful skill.
It’s not for nothing that most of the users had wide-area skills, but they didn’t use them on the battlefield just before.
However, that Twiga annihilated more than half of them even though he used an area attack that swept the entire battlefield.
The power of Twiga’s authority is that of users who have the stamina comparable to that of monsters. And it was enough to kill the monsters at once.
“Isn’t Ascatulp the problem…?”
“I see. Isn’t Twiga much more of a problem?”
“To subdue? Something like that?”
In the first place, even Askatlov himself could not be seen as if he had been affected by Twiga’s power.
A conclusion has been drawn.
The subjugation was a failure.
I’ve already lost my target.
And if that thing strides through the sky and launches the same attack as before, it will never be able to withstand it.
“Wouldn’t an attack come here soon?”
“Tsk.”
It’s a little humiliating, but I thought it would be better to get away from Sers.
Users are the head office that was in charge of the command this time. Or, they hoped that such instructions would come from Eighture, but neither of them said anything.
I didn’t even know if it happened.
Woo-wook Shu.
At that time, a user came back in a cold sweat.
Nobody cared about him
He was too dangerous to take his eyes off Twiga.
I thought that if an attack like the one before came, I would have to respond somehow.
“…I can’t go out.”
That’s why no one heard the user muttering.
However, the fortunate and unhappiness of users is that ‘sharing’ is still taking place.
Belt ring.
Some information has been updated.
The users were dumbfounded when they saw that fact… Then their faces turned pale.
The answer to the question of why they are at a safe point… Came out.
Even the very few users who had somehow withstood Twiga’s attack from outside the castle walls turned pale.
Contrary to the reaction of the users, there were also those who moved immediately.
Teija, who survived as if the title of hero was not in vain, was the same.
Among the users who are less than dozens even if you count them all. Teiya muttered.
“It’s over… Let’s jump out.”
Amr, the saintess of Aesangyo, who was beside her, looked at Teiya anxiously.
“But if that happens, the collaboration with the main store…”
“Is it time to care about collaboration now? We’re going to end up dying first while trying to take care of the profits of the head office or the country.”
Gagging.
There was a little fear in Teija’s eyes as she spat.
I somehow managed to withstand Twiga’s attack with divine power.
That’s all.
That guy, Twiga didn’t specifically aim for Teija, he just fired a rough attack.
It’s a problem that he keeps pouring out the same attacks as before, but it’s even more problematic when he comes down and fights directly.
It’s better to run away while you’re still recognized as one of the ants.
“Yellow. Orange. Green. Let’s bounce.”
“Yes.”
“Yes!”
“Quickly. Let’s run quickly…!”
Teiya, who was moving while listening to the reaction of the remaining Dreams… Huh? And questioned.
Users. For Teiya, the strangers didn’t want to move.
Until now, fear had frozen him.
But… It was a little different.
It’s okay to show fear.
But, he doesn’t even try to move at all.
Isn’t it normal to run away if you’re scared?
If the users started running away all at once, I thought it would be too noticeable at that time, so I tried to run away quickly. There is no sign of running away.
‘These things were too rational, so why are they like this now?’
The players seen on the battlefield responded calmly to any situation.
The limbs of a colleague he was close with were blown away, the monster that bit off the limbs was decapitated, the colleague was treated, and if he was caught while treating, the cured colleague saved him… The arrogant Teiya was in awe of himself.
But now it wasn’t moving. No, I couldn’t move.
Teiya, wondering if she might have missed something, decided to take a look.
He approached the main store user nearby and asked, pretending to be concerned.
“Hey. For now, retreat for the sake of strategy. The profit to deal with something like that…”
“…I can’t go.”
The staff at the main store said, blushing.
“Yes?”
“…I’m trapped, yes.”
“…What are you talking about? Ah. That transparent wall? It’s okay. I checked and we can break it…”
“&*ª locked us up!!”
An employee at the head office who screams out loud.
He would have been angry normally, but there were words he couldn’t understand, and the despair he showed and the choice of words were unusual.
“Are you locked up?”
The employee didn’t answer and tore his hair out.
Content shared in common with all users now.
[A new barrier different from the existing ones spreads throughout the Magic Stone Forest.]
[Cannot go beyond a certain distance. If you walk, you will come back in reverse.]
[Currently, the resurrection point is not the ‘starting point’, but Serth’s ‘Safe Point’]
Users had already divided information rules among themselves and even completed verification.
Got stuck
There’s that crazy monster, but I can’t get out.
If I could die once and get out, I would have fought against it without despairing like this.
The right to resurrection is a waste, but it is possible to plan for the future.
However, even if you are revived, the safety points purchased with Tobol points. In other words, it is not Sers.
“Damn it… Damn it…!”
I muttered loudly! The frenzied user hit the ground.
Stupid users. Soon, even in their eyes, anger and fear began to spread…
At that moment, O’Brien spoke urgently.
[‘Mental protection’ is now being released.]
[Calmly.]
Also shared.
What? Mental protection broken?
Mental protection is a measure taken by the gods to help users who originally lived a peaceful life become accustomed to the bloody battles of Elyunar.
If it disappears, it means that I can’t show the same composure as before.
If you’re told to stay calm, you’ll want to go crazy.
Swearing and petty destruction were rampant here and there.
Teiya gathered the information obtained from the shouts of the users in anger… And ran.
Doo doo doo doo.
He strengthened his legs with divine power and ran, returning to the dumbfounded Dreams and Amr.
“…Cee…Foot.”
Teija’s eyes glistened.
The bottom line is that he was trapped in Sersu.
Strangers have a few chances. He dies once and that’s it.
Despair rises.
Meanwhile, Twiga, who was up in the sky, crouched down and rested her chin on his chin, sighing.
“I just don’t understand.”
There are things that survived the previous attack.
It’s a pretty good level.
Well, Jintobaegi also hid their appearance.
But still weak
“Why did I tell you not to go to war with these things?”
The constraint of the Demon Realm is the system. It’s not just the will of the dimension.
It is the maintenance of a true demon king.
Division.
The dimension that separates the human world from the demon world.
The one who warned him not to cross it and that he would give a penalty if he crossed it was the true demon king who gave him the 666 powers.
According to an old tradition, he said:
The human world is dangerous. Go.
“What’s dangerous? I’ll wipe them all out by myself.”
Even if the ones here didn’t use up all their power by giving in one hundred steps… Even if there were two more demon kings in the True Purgatory, the human world could be destroyed.
And what if the Four Great Demon Kings are included among them?
This is no match
In fact, I didn’t mean that only humans were enemies, but I did say that we should be wary of other transcendental creatures.
“But being a monster king was no big deal.”
Even though it was a surprise, Askatlov was killed.
The number of monsters was only high, but it was pure blindness.
At least, the monsters seemed okay from Twiga’s point of view. Even the beast kings couldn’t get beyond the level of the 1st purgatory demon king…
Could it be that the demons don’t unite well, so they were worried that they would die fighting each other?
“What’s up. Let’s play a joke.”
Twiga snaps her fingers, and the air vibrates nervously.
While everyone was nervous, a huge voice rang out in the air.
[They say there are warriors in Sersu?]
[Come out.]
[If you don’t come out, I’ll attack you indefinitely.]
[Keep in mind that the reason I’m not attacking right away is because it’s too trivial, not because it’s difficult.]
[You don’t have to believe it. I’ll wait just 5 minutes.]
Twig at the end of the talk. He descended beside a man.
Speed like teleportation.
It was… Next to Teiya.
“…”
A monster that landed lightly without any vibration even after diving from a high place.
Teiya, who was about to run away at the presence, stopped and said nothing but sweat profusely.
Coo coo coo.
Dense demonic energy became a thin column and soared into the sky.
[Do you know where I am? If you don’t know this much, you should return the hero title.]
Indeed, all the warriors knew where he was.
First of all, the warrior of the Prosperity Church who watched the situation from the castle. Jiggs, a handsome man with an intelligent appearance. And Azria, the beautiful Saint of Prosperity Church with straight pink hair and a cute impression.
“Gee, Jigseu~”
“It’s okay Azria. I’ll protect you.”
Even in this situation, Jiggs persevered in ‘being kind to her wife’.
See yourself around you.
But I soon noticed.
Those who haven’t fainted and are still awake.
Elyunar. User.
That they were looking at Ziggs and Azria with bloodshot eyes.
“…”
Eyes telling me to go, to save me.
Ziggs could not turn away from these gazes.
An obsession different from temper.
“Let’s go. Let’s defeat the demon king…”
His voice sank as he said something he didn’t even want to say.
He secretly hoped that Azria would refuse.
Then Ziggs will think of a way to deny people’s requests and escape, saying it’s for his wife.
Users say they can’t get out, but maybe there is a way.
If you are the owner of ‘Heart World’, you can escape.
So…
“Yeah…! I’m not afraid if I’m next to Ziggs…!”
“…”
“Uh, Hick.”
Ziggs’s face went wild for a moment, and Azria took her fright and…
“What are you doing!!”
“Go quickly! Hero!!”
“Please save us…”
At the words of the soldiers, Ziggs gave up his life and gave an ambiguous smile.
“Of course I have to go.”
Then, Ziggs headed to the place where demons overflowed.
Twiga was waiting with her arms crossed, and Tay was already there. And Raamu had arrived.
Teiya was on guard, protecting her body with her divine power, and Ra-Au, along with her party members, was ready to attack Twiga at any time with a face full of hostility.
“Hmm. Are these also bad…?”
Twiga tilted her head.
Looking at Ziggs, he had a face that was less than expected, but for some reason he stared at Azria’s face.
“What are you looking at! Demon King! I know that being ugly is pretty!”
“…Azria. Don’t provoke the enemy recklessly.”
“Mi-I’m sorry, Ziggs…”
At first glance, the words were kind, but the ferocious tone made Azria shrink.
“Hmm. What’s up. Are you a hero of the Prosperity Church?”
“…Exactly.”
“Really? Then… Aesangyo, Prosperity Church, Seongsin Church… Now only Gwangsin Church and Judgment Church remain…”
The true hero was not on the battlefield in the first place.
The Judgment Cult’s hero… Twiga suddenly grinned.
“Ha ha. The Judgment Church. This guy is a thing.”
Twiga wet his lips with his tongue.
The Hero of the Cult of Judgment is fully prepared to fight.
In the dark, he was targeting himself.
And even with teeth that could reach him.
“Okay. Kitz and Yeo-leum are the delicious parts, so leave them alone for now…”
Aww aww
Twiga, clearing his throat, snapped his fingers.
“Now. Let’s start a typical fight.”
“…What do you mean by typical?”
“Hmm?”
Twiga narrowed his eyes at Ziggs’ question.
“What do you mean? We’re dragons and demons, right? Should we fight for the safety of the world?”
“I see… But, Mr. Twiga, this action… It could lead to a diplomatic problem. Do you know?”
Twiga narrowed her eyes.
“I can’t even imagine how much compensation the Devil World will have to pay based on what I’ve done so far. But you’re going to fight more here?”
“What are we going to do?”
At Twiga’s sullen words, Ziggs spread his arms and smiled broadly.
“If it were me, if it were our Prosperity Church, we could cover this.”
“…”
“We will stop fighting each other’s losses. We learned the value of peace and comfort in the battles of our ancestors…”
Ziggs’s words faded.
There was a… Large hole dug in his uvula.
“Keukhuk…Kkeuk…”
“Oh, that’s a lot of dirty talk.”
Twiga stretched out his finger and grinned.
“Then I betrayed the world of demons and came alone! You bastard bastard!”
Perk!!
At the same time that Ziggs’ arm was separated, Raamu, the hero of the Holy Protestant Church, and Teiya, the hero of the Church of Aesangyo, charged.
The battle between the hero and the demon king has begun.
