Chapter 385 – 109. Memory of the Six Temples (3)
At the sight of the corpse, the party paused on the spot.
However, even the present Empire, where everyone lived, was also an era of great chaos. The heroines weren’t surprised just because they saw a dead body.
“This is a one-sided massacre.”
I nodded my head at Chloe’s words.
Perhaps not all of the old races have awakened mana. In fact, even in Island, where the use of mana is very common, mana affinity varies from person to person.
“These corpses seem to be people who haven’t awakened their mana.”
Firearms were strewn around the corpse. It seems that the old man who can use mana slaughtered the rest of the old man.
And as if a beast had dug up the corpse. The body was a mess.
“Lord, die!! A monster that doesn’t even look like a human!!!”
And screams were heard in the distance. A word not used at all in Ireland. He probably understood what he was saying in English.
Me and my party hid behind piles of crushed concrete nearby. And I watched their fight.
“The attack with that magical tool doesn’t work at all against the demons.”
Chloe whispered quietly. The magic tool Chloe talked about was a firearm used on Earth. A group of soldiers who appeared to be soldiers were constantly firing weapons that appeared to be rifles or anti-tank weapons.
However, the demons fighting with them. No, to be exact, the attack was useless for the old people who could use mana.
‘The shield made of mana blocks all of those attacks.’
Mana is energy for which the physical laws of the earth do not apply. So, the old-fashioned fever weapons couldn’t hit the Mahon people at all.
“Oh, no! At this rate, they will approach the Alliance Headquarters! Stop it even at the cost of your life!”
Soon, the Mahon people came close to the soldiers. The Mahons did not even use weapons.
Sssss-
I just made a blade with my palm and swung it in front of their necks.
“The radiation of mana…”
Like Lillia said. The blue light of mana shimmered. The blade of mana blew the soldier’s head.
In the midst of such a one-sided massacre. Finally, the Mahon people caught the party.
“Hey, it’s a woman! Oh, and that’s a lot of people! Kyahahaha!!”
“Oh, the faces are all smooth! Good! Let’s capture them all alive and attack them!”
Dozens of demons ran toward the party all at once. In the red-stained eyes. I felt a terrible lust.
Although the heroines cannot understand English. It seems that he understood his intentions just by looking at them.
“Woo-wook. I feel bad.”
Chloe looked at the Mariones with a very contemptuous expression. But she saw the massacre earlier. Everyone hastily prepared for battle.
“There are men too! It looks like you’re holding a knife?”
“Kill the man! It doesn’t matter if you use mana anyway!”
“Keuk. Well, guns can’t kill us, but cutlery… By the way, why are you dressed like that? Where have you been doing a play?”
As they approached, I could still hear their conversation. I inadvertently recalled Roia’s ordeal.
‘Come to think of it, even in Roia’s ordeal, I was able to interact a little with the people who appear in the ordeal.’
So those guys are mere memories, not the background. At that time, a married man shouted.
“Now, wait a minute? Men have smooth faces too! No, she looks as pretty as the other girls!”
At that, a muscular white man with skinhead shouted.
“Don’t touch that guy! I prefer men over women. It tastes better that way After tasting his hole, I cut off his limbs and his soft flesh…”
The white man extended his finger and pointed me specifically. That was the moment.
“Yes?”
The man put on a puzzled expression for a moment. And soon the man’s head fell to the ground. The demons around them shouted.
“Is it a surprise? What’s the matter?”
“They haven’t moved yet! A surprise attack from afar!”
The guys didn’t seem to notice what had just happened. But I saw it with my own two eyes. Lucia cut the throat of the man who pointed at me and spit out disgusting words.
‘Lucia won’t understand what those guys are saying. Did you catch the mood?’
For a moment, the gaze of the party turned to Lucia. She had Lucia drawing her sword. She noticed that it was what she did.
Lucia said in a cold voice.
“These guys are no big deal. But since you insulted Yulian-sama, I will kill them all.”
I watched the pink afterimage as it moved.
***
The party continued on their way.
It was Lucia who led the way. Although each time she met Guinryu, who turned into Marriage. Lucia took them all lightly.
“Mahon. And there are those who have turned into demons. I don’t feel like a dangerous enemy as much as I thought. Of course, there’s a reason Lucia-sama is such an excellent swordsman, but…”
“I feel that way too. This is enough for a mid-level magician…”
I agree with Lillia. Chloe, who had sneaked closer to me than Lilia, joined the conversation.
“Yulian-sama is right! If you have a demonic marriage or demonic beast like this, you won’t be able to become a 5th brother! Even if it’s not Lady Lucia over there, I can deal with it alone!”
Saying that, Chloe secretly restrained Lucia as well. But she wasn’t wrong about what she said.
‘Actually, I can only feel that the old people of today are only type 5 monsters.’
So Chloe’s fighting skills and alchemy were enough to deal with alone. I thought of the meaning.
‘I don’t think they use mana as skillfully as the Irish of today.’
The hierarchy of mana hearts. In addition, the theory of various magic techniques and mana training methods, etc. Esland’s Mana Science is as advanced as the science and technology of the old mankind.
Compared to that, the old people who use mana. Although they were called married couples for now. It was embarrassing to compare it to the demons and demons of Island.
‘Because it doesn’t seem like he can’t even properly demonstrate his magical power.’
However, soon the companions frowned. In the distance, I saw a large number of demons attacking the soldiers, and more precisely, mankind who might use mana.
“Ugh. It’s really disgusting to see.”
Seeing this, Chloe spread her fan and covered her face. The demons, the humans they slaughtered. They were eating like delicious food on the spot.
“It’s really no different from a witch beast.”
Even Lillia, who always had a bright expression on her face, distorted. Rosette, who saw that, said.
“Perhaps those demon souls… Are absorbing living things, especially humans, and consuming their mana. That must be the same habit as a demonic beast.”
Like Rosette said, witches consume humans and consume their magical powers.
As Lillia said, those demons seemed to fit the prototype of the demons.
The soldiers who were being attacked desperately cried out.
“Ji, you have to protect it! We must not give up our headquarters to those monsters!”
“Monster? Kkeukkeuk. Inferior guys who might use mana. We are new people! It is the new human race that has newly evolved on this earth!”
Although the heroines wouldn’t understand that conversation.
Now I am a new type of humanity that was reborn by Jedin and Yunir after the old mankind was destroyed. That’s why it felt funny to see them claiming to be new people.
‘Well, more than that though.’
Memory of now. The priority was to hurriedly move toward the guiding memories of these six temples.
In the meantime, Lucia and the other party moved and dealt with the Mariones as well. But the inferiority of the soldiers was evident.
The place Lucia guided me to. When they got close to a building, it was already besieged by a large number of Mahon people.
‘It looks like some zombies are surrounding it.’
A huge building, like the skyscrapers of the Earth, appeared in front of me. However, there were so many Maron people surrounding it that even the building seemed small.
“Should we go inside that building?”
At Lillia’s words, Lucia nodded her head. For a moment, she gave Rosette a sick expression.
“It won’t be difficult to deal with… But it will take time to defeat so many demons…”
Rather than being difficult, it’s probably something that doesn’t feel good. However, Lucia answered without a slight expression on her face.
“I don’t think there’s any need to deal directly with those demons. If I lead the way…”
And Lucia moved her feet again without hesitation.
***
Lucia led us inside the building. As she said, she came here and did not encounter any Marriages.
We moved to the hidden secret entrance. And I looked around the inside of the building. I was able to guess the identity of this building.
‘Are Jedin and Unir here?’
Exactly what I saw a few hours ago. Machines called ‘Z.E.D.I.N.’ And ‘U.N.I.R.E.’.
I was convinced that a huge machine called quantum artificial intelligence existed here.
“I can feel the energy of mana in this building. Strangely, I barely felt any mana from the outside, but…”
Lillia was right.
The outside was completely different from Ireland. The source for wizards and swordsmen in Ireland to use mana or accumulate it in mana hearts. It was because there was enough mana in the air.
However, from the outside of the building, the mana felt in the air was extremely thin.
At least when he entered the building, the concentration of mana got a little thicker. Still, it felt like half of Island, no, not even half of that.
‘In the first place, Mana would not have existed on Earth. It wouldn’t be strange.’
Still, everyone here is a Mana Awakener. So, you have enough mana in your mana heart. I didn’t feel any great anxiety.
Rather, if there were any beings or machines with the names of the two gods here. Encountering that machine must be the beginning of approaching the truth of the 6 temples.
“For a moment. Everyone stop!”
Lucia cried quietly. And I figured out why. I could feel the popularity in the near future.
“Rosette. Can you cast a stealth spell on everyone?”
At my words, she hurriedly swung her black magic wand. Right after that, a few people passed by the group. They didn’t recognize the group.
“I will follow them.”
And Lucia chased after them. Cautiously, the party moved with them. Soon after entering the huge space.
I finally came face to face with the huge obelisk I had seen in my memory a few hours ago.
‘Is that Jedin and Yunir?’
There is no doubt that I checked the letters ‘Z.E.D.I.N.’ And ‘U.N.I.R.E.’ Engraved on the obelisk. However, unlike the memory, the surrounding background was different.
After checking the machine, Lillia inadvertently crossed herself. She was the same as the other heroines.
‘It’s not a research lab.’
I’ve heard the soldiers outside say it must be the Union Headquarters.
Perhaps, this place might be the headquarters of the groups opposing the Mahon people. As if to confirm my thoughts.
Around obelisk-like machinery. People were shouting as if an urgent meeting was going on.
“All cities have been captured! The only place left now is outside the Federation Headquarters here…”
“Then, is now… The moment when humanity will truly perish… That… It can’t be…”
“No. Extinction will not be It’s just that mana… Mana that mankind can’t digest is recklessly used and turned into a monster… They just live on Earth anew.”
“It can’t be! Those monsters will even eat themselves! Those things are no longer human!”
The party watched them while carefully hiding themselves.
Except for me, I couldn’t understand what they were saying. Instead, there were large screens everywhere in this place like a large conference hall.
On those dozens of screens, images of various cities were unfolding in real time. Like the outside of this building. All the cities on the screen were being occupied by the Mahon people.
‘Like those people say. Is it the end of the old race?’
To be precise, it would be the end of mankind who cannot use mana. And like in that conversation. What if the Old Man, the prey of the Mahon people, disappeared. In the end, the only thing left for the Old Man is extinction.
One of them came out and stood in the middle of the conference hall. And he seems to have decided everything. He spoke to the people in the conference hall with a firm expression.
“We don’t need to talk anymore. We’ve already talked about it countless times. Our extinction is a fact that can no longer be prevented. There is only one option.”
The conference hall buzzed. But in the end, everyone put on a resigned expression. Opinions were put together.
“Now the fate of all surviving humans. I will leave it to Jedin and Unir!”
And the surroundings were dark. But soon the surroundings brightened again.
“The people… Are all gone.”
At Lillia’s words, Rosette broke her hiding. Everyone in the party was puzzled. I looked at the large screen in this conference room without saying a word.
‘Could it have been 100 years?’
Just now. On the screen showing the extinction of mankind, time was simultaneously displayed in the corner.
The time on the screen unfolding in front of your eyes right now. 100 years have passed since that time. That was the moment.
The large screen turned blue. From there, letters began to glow.
[Z.E.D.I.N]
[U.N.I.R.E]
The alphabet was darkened in turn. When all the letters of Jedin and Unir passed by. A new word remained on the screen.
[The Genesis]
I immediately remembered the meaning of the word.
Genesis. The word that contains the meaning of Genesis.
