Chapter 386 – The Cotton Field
“Chief! Stop the monster if you don’t want to die!”
“Keuhehe, keuh! Stop? What do you mean? Do you really think that someone like me is manipulating a gift from God? After all, it is a foolish accident like unbelievers!”
Even though a blade was pointed at his neck, the village chief did not turn his mouth around. There is no fear in his eyes either.
Roin, too, seemed quite taken aback by the village chief’s madness. A stream of red blood flowed from his neck.
“Hansong! Should I just kill him?”
Should I just kill it? It was the village chief who caused that Jiangshi. It must have been the village chief who managed it all this time. If so, wouldn’t it be possible to stop the Jiangshi by killing the village chief?
No, I can’t kill the village chief yet.
There’s a lot of information I need to ask him about that Jiangshi. Killing before you get that information is premature.
“No! Wait still!”
“Ugh!”
I turned my gaze to the moans of Natalya next to me.
Natalya was looking at Jiangshi with a frown on his face.
“What’s the matter?”
“He absorbed some of my mana along with the skeleton.”
“…”
I frowned and looked at Jiangshi. The aura of death I felt from him became more intense.
“I got stronger… Is it?”
It was said that all the village children also became part of the Jiangshi’s body. And just absorbed the steel skeleton.
There are plenty of possibilities.
The steel skeleton itself is like an artifact that has the energy of death. It may have been a good nutrient for Jiangshi.
Anyway, the jiangshi was bound by the troll skeleton. Jiangshi’s movements aren’t quick, so I’d rather the village chief,
“Ugh!”
Again Natalia let out a small moan.
The arm and sword of the troll skeleton holding down the Jiangshi trembled. Jiangshi is holding Zweihender’s blade with both hands and slowly lifting it up!
“Could it be that the power of that Jiangshi is stronger than that of a troll skeleton?”
Natalya’s Troll Skeleton is comparable to the super monster Drake! But the chief of such a remote village was in the service of a monster with that much power?
There are degrees of stupidity!
“The absorption of my magical power had a big impact!”
As if riding an iron bar, Jiangshi raised the blade and approached the troll skeleton step by step.
If you allow the jiangshi access, the troll skeleton may be absorbed as well. When that happens, there is really no turning back.
Natalya also made a move, probably deciding that it couldn’t go on like this. The magic that controlled the troll skeleton began to fluctuate.
“Aye!!”
Following that wild magical movement, the troll skeleton swung at Zweihender! Lifted.
Jiangshi, who was gripping the blade strongly, was also dragged up along with the blade. The guy hurriedly releases the blade as soon as his body is in the air, but he cannot control his movements in mid-air.
Zweihender’s blade flew like a storm towards the side of the Jiangshi who floated in the air.
Fuck! Jiangshi’s back broke with a dull noise, and soon it bounced off like a baseball hit by a club.
Kwaaang!
The Jiangshi flew like a cannonball toward the common wall and slammed into a cloud of dust. It was so hard that it didn’t look beige.
She turned her gaze to the village chief. The guy just stared blankly at the dust cloud where the Jiangshi disappeared, with his eyes wide open and his mouth open.
It must have been shocking to see the Jiangshi you believed in flying away and getting dumped. It’s a look worth seeing.
“What, it was nothing. Roin! Take that bastard this way,”
The word ‘bring me to’ is ridiculous! Was buried by a huge sound.
At the sound of something cracking, I opened her eyes wide and looked at Natalia next to her.
Natalia looks at me too. A silent exchange of glances was held for a while, and soon, the Jiangshi crashed again on the wall on the side! I heard a noise and saw the wall cracking.
“What, what?!”
“No way… !”
Patter, and one or two stones fell to the floor, and soon water streams came out from the ceiling one by one.
“Water?! Why?!”
“Because of the shock… !”
Kwaaang! What fell this time was not a stone. A huge rock falls. The crack spreads all over the pupil’s ceiling in an instant!
“Muh, it’s collapsing?!”
“I must have blown the Jiangshi too hard!!”
“Tah, escape… !”
She quickly turned around and looked at the exit. I was blocked by a collapsed rock!! At this rate, you may die from being crushed by a rock!!
“Uh, what should I do, what should I do!!”
“Hansong! Come this way!!”
Natalya grabbed my hand as I was flustered and didn’t know what to do. The troll skeleton that blew away the jiangshi came out and wrapped itself around Nataliya, then lifted the tower shield up to shield it from falling rocks.
Will the troll skeleton be able to block the falling boulders enough? I had doubts.
Water streams pouring from the ceiling. It must have been the pouring of the river that was crossing the side of the village. Water is flowing in as if there is a slight crack.
The depth of the river was not very deep.
This means that the cavity itself does not exist deep underground. It won’t be too far from the ground.
The story that it is close to the ground means that the ceiling is thin, which means that there will not be many rocks pouring down.
The bottom of the troll skeleton is safe enough to last. The problem is…
“Roin!!”
The old man holding the village chief is still exposed to the danger of collapse!!
“Kuu… !”
Roin bit his lower lip and jumped this way.
10 meters, 8 meters, 5 meters… Almost there. Just three more steps… !
The red eyes of the running man turned towards the ceiling. At the same time.
Kwaaaaang!!
A huge rock fell in front of him and covered his eyes. Roin’s figure is nowhere to be seen.
“No!!!”
There’s no way I’ll be able to remove that rock just because I’m leaving, but my body moves blindly. On that day, Natalya caught on.
“Hansong! You can’t leave!!”
“But Roin, Roin!!”
“It’s dangerous to go out!!”
“Roin, Roin… !”
Please stay alive I closed my eyes and sensed the energy.
Now that I have awakened my magical power to some extent, I can concentrate my mind and feel the energy of death. If you don’t feel the energy of death in the direction where the old man disappeared, it proves that he is alive.
Please. Please…
“Ugh… !”
I could feel the aura of death in the direction where the old man disappeared. In an instant, his legs lost strength and he collapsed. Dead, say? Roin? Being crushed by a lump of rock?
“Uh, ah! No!”
“Hanseong-nim, calm down!”
“Calm down, how can I calm down… ! Loin is dead dead… !!”
The old man was crushed by a boulder and died. Being hit by a huge mass, it leaves no trace… !
Shattered… !!
It overlaps with the wounds deeply engraved in my head.
White walls, interior… I am so helpless in front of the intense impact created by the roaring sound, the ground, and the body shaking, the huge mass mass. Again, just powerless… !!
He grabbed his head with both hands. My eyes are dizzy. My legs are weak and I can’t stand up. I hear Natalia’s voice, but I can’t understand what she’s saying.
“Relax!”
I felt a warm, soft touch on my face.
The rough exhaled breathing calms down little by little.
As if the collapse of the cave was over, the troll skeleton got up and removed the boulder. The sun’s light illuminated his face. I slowly raised my head and looked around.
“…”
I was in the middle of a crater that looked like a huge meteorite had fallen.
Around the edge of the crater, on top of the hill, you could see the silhouettes of villagers.
“Ha… Ha…”
They’re looking at us. Among them were the village chief’s two sons.
“… ! … !!”
They were shouting something at the villagers. It is the same as the village chief who showed the appearance of a fanatic by performing Jiangshi.
If it wasn’t for those bastards, if it weren’t for those bastards… !!
Paaang!
From the other side of the crater, a hand broke through a rock and climbed wildly. It was the white and bloodless hand of Jiangshi.
The guy crawled out from between the rocks.
Roin, Roin died from being crushed by a rock, but why is that monster bastard still alive?
The villagers, who had been making noise on the hill, saw the Jiangshi and fell on their knees as if they had seen something sacred. Bow your head and bow.
My heart beats violently and the boiling blood rises to my head.
The supply of oxygen cannot keep up with the excessive blood flow. He bit his molars and breathed heavily through his mouth.
“Whoop, whoop… !”
He clenched his fists. Mud mixed with thick blood was filled in his hand.
It was the blood that covered the common floor like a carpet. It’s the blood that overflowed from that Jiangshi’s body. I can see him well because of the sunlight.
Blood is dripping through the cracks in his skin.
River water seeps into the crater, mixing with blood.
This blood is connected.
I’m connected to that damn monster.
I don’t know if it’s a godsend or not, but since you guys took my precious things, I’ll take yours too.
