Chapter 424 – Seven Major Elections (1)
Lu Bu, who was watching the situation from afar, muttered.
“… “It’s over.”
He had just rushed in with his men after hearing that the upper floor had been breached.
Until I came here, I had tried to turn a crisis into an opportunity by attacking the enemy’s rear.
“There’s no need for that.”
That’s only possible if the battle lines are holding up well.
The upper floors were being cleared out quickly.
Hexagram’s fighters who organized the black market and the black market forces that surrendered to them fought fiercely, but it was not enough to change the already tilted situation.
Looking at that, Yeo-po clicks his tongue as if he feels sorry.
‘If we had followed the rules, we wouldn’t have been pushed this far.’
The most painful thing was being hit by the enemy in a completely unexpected surprise attack without any preparation.
So I was curious.
‘Why didn’t the alarm go off?’
The people Lu Bu saw were not idiots.
Barriers, barriers, and doors.
I believed in their defensive power, but did not become overconfident.
Although it is a very difficult probability, it is also something that could definitely happen.
So, the warning system was thoroughly operated so that a signal would be sent when the enemy came close.
“… Could it be that even that was neutralized?”
Other than that, there is no answer.
This probably means that they were thoroughly prepared and prepared for this surprise attack.
“It’s a shame.”
Tsk tsk.
Yeo-po clicks his tongue as he sees the Hexagram members increasingly being pushed into a corner.
The moment we helped them break the alliance, we would have been able to completely take the breath away from the current government.
It was a little disappointing, but that was all.
Because there was no benefit to him at all.
‘Is it a benefit because at least one troublesome issue has been resolved?’
In return for joining hands with them, they received help in improving the ‘Juksinwi’.
The Jeoksinwi that was created in this way was able to demonstrate stronger addictive properties with a smaller amount than before, and also gained stability so that it would not be affected by the magic made and distributed in Korea.
If we distribute and sell this all over the world, we will be able to secure an incomparable amount of money as military funds.
Yeo Bu smiles lightly as she remembers this.
But even for a moment.
“…”
The moment my eyes landed on a man walking through the upper floors, his face became cold.
“… Kim Do-jin.”
The one who ruined some of his plans.
It’s even more annoying.
His existence.
So much so that I want to jump into the battlefield right away and stab that guy in the heart.
The reason wasn’t simply that it ruined my plan to secure funds.
‘He is a dangerous guy.’
The experience of seeing his abilities, even if just for a moment, whispers to me.
Insolently, I tried to tie myself up.
But it succeeded.
Although it was only a moment that passed by so quickly that no one noticed.
It was clear that my body had stopped.
“…”
This gave Lu Bu a considerable sense of crisis.
So much so that I wanted to take his life in exchange for the lives of all of his men who brought him here.
‘It’s definitely a benefit. But…’
These were not the elites he cared about.
Half-penny people whose loyalty to themselves is everything and who can only do their part by relying on pharmaceutical drugs.
Therefore, if you can take Kim Do-jin’s life even if you throw away all of these lives, it will definitely be a benefit.
But what happens after that is the problem.
No matter how much they worship themselves like gods, how can they firmly believe in and follow a commander who treats his subordinates as useless pieces of chess and drives them to their deaths?
If this incident causes a crack in their trust, it will lead to even greater losses.
So he had a knack for lightly risking his life at this point.
“Honesty.”
“Yes, General.”
“Give me the spear.”
“Here I am, General.”
Seongryeom, one of the eight strong generals who left with him to assist him, handed him a spear.
What was held in Lu Bu’s hands was not his favorite disease, Bangcheonhwageuk, but a javelin.
It was a javelin that was perfected by a master after hundreds or thousands of attempts, just for Lu Bu.
It pops into my mind.
The spear of his merciless thunderbolt aimed at my horse.
That’s why I want to repay you.
Coincidentally, he was also so confident in the javelin that it would be a pity to be second best.
“Huh… !”
As he takes a stance, the sleeping red energy embraces his entire body.
Soon, a bright red force appears in the window.
Kwasik!
The ground caved in under enormous pressure.
From feet, legs, waist, chest, and arms.
Power flowing naturally like water is transmitted and strengthened through each body part.
Piyuung!
The spear imbued with great power cries out as it leaves his fingertips.
Sharp scales, flowing whiskers, and quivering body.
The energy covering the spear, which flies quickly as if folding space, forms the shape of a red dragon.
The name was given because the sound of a cannon is heard when a spear shaped like a red dragon pierces an enemy.
Red dragon gun.
The blow that blew away the leader of a flock of strange birds that covered the skies of China in the past was this time aimed at a man.
* * *
“Ouch… !”
Dump!
The person in charge of consolidating the Chinese black market with a guy named Agui vomits blood and collapses.
“Hwiyu.”
It was not an easy fight.
All members of the organization dispatched to China are A-level or higher, and the two people in charge are S-level.
My impression is instantly crumpled.
“… “What on earth are they doing?”
It’s even thrilling to see that S-class people are tied up and treated like dogs.
How many S-ranks are there in the organization so they can be handled so easily?
The more you become involved, the more you understand even if you don’t want to.
Why did Han Joo-hee join hands with them?
The once ridiculous phrase of helping the world begins to feel more and more plausible.
Of course, I am confident that their plan will not come even close to success.
Why?
Because I will stop it.
Whatever they’re planning.
“I’m going to have to throw away a lot of crap.”
I was about to turn around with that promise.
Kwaaaaang-!
With the sound of something exploding, the barrier surrounding the upper floor shatters.
“What is this…?” ?”
I was just confused and wondering what was going on.
Suddenly, the back of my head feels itchy.
Piyuwoong-!
I feel it.
A ferocious force approaching, tearing the air.
It’s a familiar feeling.
“Yu Bu, you bastard.”
Without even looking back, he spits out curses and builds up layer upon layer of magical power around him.
Dozens of layers of shield completed in an instant.
But it’s not enough.
Kwachang!
Quad deuk!
As I hastily turn around, a spear wrapped in the shape of a red dragon is approaching, shattering the shield.
“… !”
It was too late to avoid it.
This is not an attack that can be accomplished simply by dodging the tip of the spear.
It looks like he was planning to kill me.
It doesn’t seem easy to stop it either.
Maybe if I had some time to spare.
No, it would be better if you had a sword in your hand… !
At that time, I was trying my best to suppress the sense of urgency that was growing helplessly and to think of a life-saving move.
“Huh… !”
Something suddenly jumps out in front of me and blocks my view.
What you can see is a shield large enough to completely cover a person.
But it’s different.
The color of the hair.
Instead of long blonde hair, what was fluttering before my eyes was a short black hair.
Before I could even say her name, I opened my mouth wide at the extremely familiar sight of the back.
Wow!
The spear that Lu Bu threw with all his might hit the huge shield and let out a loud noise.
The next thing that came out of my mouth was my voice.
“Son Seo-yeon!”
The person who blocked my path while holding my colleague’s huge shield was none other than Son Seo-yeon.
My daughter
My head, which I worked so hard to cool, feels hot.
Follicle, follicle, follicle.
This bastard wouldn’t mind chewing on the bones… !
But even for a moment.
“Ugh… !”
My daughter’s faint moans amidst the repeated loud noises calm my anger.
This is not the time.
In order for me and Seoyeon to survive, we must thoroughly utilize the time we have.
I don’t know.
How can Seoyeon, who is still a long way off, block the guy’s attack and still stand on her feet?
However, I just grit my teeth and yell at the guy.
“Hold on just a little longer… !”
“Huh… , Yes… !”
I feel the leader’s pain and gather my magic at the sound, which I don’t know if it’s a pain-stained answer or a groan.
[Activates the ruler’s area.]
Express your will.
Me and my daughter.
Furthermore, the strength to protect the things I cherish.
It is overlaid on the shield Seoyeon is holding.
「Aegis.」
The magic power that took shape at the same time as the short starter word blocked the attack before Seo-yeon.
Quaaaaang!
The traces of the red dragon, which struggled and roared until the very end, are fading away.
Good luck!
Eventually, a spear fell helplessly to the floor.
As if confirming this, Seoyeon puts down her shield and turns around with her arms hanging down.
A face that has turned completely white.
Blood flowing from the corner of the mouth.
Just by looking at it, it is clear that the situation is at its worst.
“It’s okay… It’s okay… ?”
The guy is asking me if I’m okay.
I only used too much magical power, but I wasn’t hurt anywhere.
What on earth should I say?
Thank you for saving me?
Thanks to you, I survived?
Even though I can think of more than a dozen words to praise her achievements.
“Why on earth did you do that? Then what if I die… !”
She scolded him, pushing all those words deep into her heart.
Then the guy laughs.
As if it was you and I knew it would happen.
“You told me… ? Protecting each other… , A colleague.”
“…”
“This time… , I kept it…”
Seoyeon slowly closes her eyes and collapses without even finishing what she said.
I hurriedly approach him and grab his shoulder to support him and check his condition.
Heavy breathing, weak pulse.
I don’t know what it is, but her entire body is hot like a fireball because she used too much strength.
In all likelihood, her insides will be completely destroyed.
Okay.
It’ll be okay.
Because there is a saint not far away.
“Hurry to the saint… !”
All she had to do was take him to her…
When you hurriedly try to take your steps away.
“Seo-yeon!”
A sharp voice, almost like a scream, pierces my ears from the sky.
She is she
Han Joo-hee lands quickly and takes Seo-yeon away from my arms.
At the same time, her arms wave.
Sigh-!
A tingling pain felt in the cheek.
At the same time, gazes filled with deep resentment turn towards me.
An expression that seems to have a lot to say.
But without saying anything.
Clean liquid!
She left
Holding my daughter in my arms.
