Chapter 125 – The Blood Witch (10)
Blood Religion The Thirteen Apostles Beatrice.
She was born as the only daughter of her father, who was a direct descendant of Jegalse, and her mother, who was from the Batory family, an old and prestigious family in Europe.
A pure-blooded member of the Bathory family who is born every hundreds of years.
And it was a great misfortune for her that Jegal Se was born with her uniquely brilliant brain. Numerous Murim groups, who had recognized her constitution early on, had been targeting her since childhood, and even the secret history of the confused Jegal Sega was entangled.
That’s how she survived by gritting her teeth and enduring day by day while going through countless things alone.
‘…’
Feeling the warmth still lingering on the other side of her chest, Beatrice cupped her hands on her chest and looked up at her. Soon, she climbed the stairs one step at a time, with only yellow eyes shining.
Again. Again. Again.
Every time I climbed the stairs one by one, the blood ball’s true spirit wriggled. Her Jin Ma Sung Blood Gong, which her previous lineage master directly passed on to her, was not lacking in comparison to any other martial arts, except for her madness as she rose to higher levels.
And her constitution, pure-blooded, did not allow the blood-hole madness to erode her body, so it was safe to say that there were virtually no side effects except for a ‘slight’ emotional change.
“Ha….”
A thin exhalation escaped from between Beatrice’s lips.
The characteristic of Jinma Sunghyeolgong was that it could be used as a pupil movement tool.
From the moment I secured a handful of jinki with the fortune-telling breakfast, my recovery started to gain momentum. The momentum of each Bobo changed markedly.
Kim Mu-gong told her to leave alone, but she had no intention of doing so. She knows how tenacious and venomous the party is.
‘I didn’t expect to see my junior here, but.’
In a situation where Kim Mu-gong could be in danger, will she escape alone like a rat? It couldn’t be. She needed Kim Mu-gong.
Besides, when he saw that he had committed such a disaster, he did not ask the circumstances. He wasn’t even to blame. He just treated her as usual. So glad it was that she struggled to keep a smile from coming to her lips. She knew that laughing in the middle of a pool of blood wasn’t normal. It’s a bit like looking too crazy.
“Yes. Also.”
As she muttered to herself, her steps became lighter and lighter.

I observed the movement of the Jecheondae from a high-rise building overlooking the facility.
‘I don’t think so.’
Jecheondae’s movement was quite far from punishing the assailants. Rather, it was closer to the attitude of wanting to thoroughly investigate the facility. It seemed that he was somewhat shocked by the gruesome sight.
‘Not yet.’
I couldn’t be sure. That itself could be a trap to lure in the assailant.
[We are finished evacuating. As soon as I came out, the military blocked all areas.]
It was midsummer. Team leader Park Soo-ho and his teammates seem to have succeeded in escaping. Set an hour
[I’m glad.]
[You?]
[I’m going to go see the situation.]
[Isn’t it dangerous?]
[In case you don’t know, give me an escape route. You should tell Cheonbigak.]
[I already had a few of them. Alone? Or many?]
[If there is something to evacuate, many. It’s not that difficult for me to get out alone.]
[It must be because of Jecheondae. Battle?]
[Assuming there will be. Thinking of breaking through all the blocked troops.]
[It won’t be easy. Unmanned soldiers and military troops were all over the place. There are already hundreds of drones floating around. If it’s the size of Jecheondae, you’ll be monitored the entire time you move. There will also be shelling.]
In this world, unmanned is an asymmetric power. The problem is that the asymmetric force moves freely and is only the size of a human. It was possible to do unmanned single missions, but the true fear was that a kind of unmanned and military forces could also be combined.
Even when catching monsters right away, they were beaten with modern weapons, and in the meantime, the warriors who had saved their strength stepped forward and cut down the powerful monsters. Unless it was out of the standard like Master.
[I have to try. So please guide me.]
[…Okay. Once confirmed, I’ll send you the coordinates of the escape route. Wait a minute.]
In less than five minutes, several escape routes flew by. I updated the route on the handy device on my wrist and waited patiently.
‘It would be nice if I had nothing to write about.’
But there is nothing to write about, is that the Seomun family and the Sword King are in one relationship with the Tang family?
That in itself was a pain in the ass.
‘Yes?’
Suddenly, the movement of the Jecheondae changed. They gathered in an instant and started to leave the facility. Then, I met the military troops approaching from afar and started a conversation. I focused my attention on my hearing. Even though it was so far away that I couldn’t see it properly, I could hear each and every conversation between Jecheondae and the person called ‘Biwongakju’.
‘It must have been like that.’
I pulled out the black dragon sword and stood up. The answer came out roughly.
***
Jecheon University Budaeju Seomunwon-gil.
He, who came out to investigate secretly under the order of the Sword King, frowned upon seeing the horror unfolding before his eyes. As a member of the sword king’s arms, he had seen all sorts of ugliness, but this was the first time.
“…Our pharmaceutical facilities are certain. According to the information, it is also clear that they have been supplying children and conducting illegal experiments. The number of victims is hard to count.”
The subordinate who had entered the interior came out again and reported to Seomunwon-gil. Befitting the arrogant title of suppressing the sky, Jecheon Daewon was the main axis of Seomun family, each one of which was a top-notch master.
“Looks like there was an intruder before us.”
Seo Mun-won-gil said with a drool.
“Yes. The timing is odd. The assailants seem to have escaped before we hit.”
“First of all, the evidence must be secured…”
Suddenly, I sensed something unusual in the spirit of Seomunwon-gil.
Whee ae ae ae ae-!
Something approached at tremendous speed with a puncture tearing through the air. Seomunwon-gil immediately unleashed his sword and poured his sword energy toward those approaching from above.
Kwagwagwagwagwang-!
Things that approached the black air that had spread widely like a storm and a thunderstorm exploded and lit up the gray sky. Hundreds of light sources twinkled and disappeared.
“Sub-lord?”
“Immediately take the crew out of the facility. Evidence will be secured depending on the circumstances.”
“All right.”
The subordinate wrapped his arms around him and disappeared inside the facility. If the flying things were stuck in the facility, the crew members inside were in danger. It was an obvious military modern weapon. Missiles or shells. Maybe it’s both.
‘Did the military intervene? For what reason?’
Seomunwon-gil’s face grew heavy. No matter how superhuman an unmanned man may be, the power of modern weapons was never to be underestimated. Because self-defense wasn’t infinite. Besides, this is a facility of ‘Dangmoon Pharmaceutical’.
‘If the military intervened, it means that the party also intervened.’
In a short moment, Seomunwon-gil finished his judgment. If you delay securing evidence, you will do more harm than good. As the commander of the unit, he had the duty to save the members of the Jecheon Battalion.
Members of the Jecheondae Corps, who had entered the facility and secured evidence, gathered outside again. After confirming that everyone had gathered, Seomunwongil raised his sword.
“Get out of here immediately.”
Still with a sword, Seomunwon-gil took the lead. When you reach the front door of the facility like that.
I saw dozens of armored vehicles approaching from afar. As if blocking the retreat, a wall of armored vehicles was erected and soldiers disembarked in an instant from inside.
‘No, I’m not a soldier.’
Those who were thought to be military forces were unmanned. The spirit of the unmanned soldiers who got off the military armored vehicles was quite disappointing. In addition, the turret of the armored vehicle was clearly aiming at Jecheondae. Inevitably, Jecheondae, including Seomunwon-gil, stopped, guarding the front. Instead of attacking without hesitation, a man emerged from hundreds of unmanned soldiers.
That buck that buck
Pale lips, pale skin, and a slim body comparable to that of a woman. The man in the long green coat looked rather fragile. He’s as if with one swing of the sword he can slay.
However, Seomun Won-gil knew who that man was. How dangerous he is. Seo Mun-won-gil spat out.
“Lord of the noble Tang clan, Biwon Gakju, what are you doing in the mere erosion zone?”
The man called Biwon Gakju half-opened his eyes and tilted his head slightly.
“I am going to ask you. Why did the Jecheondae of the Seomun family raid the facilities of Tang Moon Pharmaceutical? Is it the sword king’s suit? Or is it that the Seomun family wants to wage war with the Tang family?”
“We didn’t raid. I can’t tell just by looking at the time…”
“No. The raid was yours.”
A cold, frozen voice rang out. A frightening sensation ran down the spine of Seomunwon-gil. Finally, Seo Mun-won-gil asked.
“Hello, should I do this? Jecheondae and I came here by order of the Maenglord. Aren’t you afraid of the aftermath?”
“Should we just be afraid of the Seomun Sega and the Sword King? For the sin of daring to touch the gate, it is enough to slaughter all of you and ask the Seomun Sega and the Sword King.”
It was non-negotiable. It was an extremely arrogant sound, but it was clear that if all the Jecheondae died here, the will of the non-Wongakju would be followed. Seomunwon-gil gave a signal to Jecheondae while tightening his grip on the sword. He had to somehow keep at least one person alive to deliver this news.
The sword of Seomunwon-gil, which had completed its resolution, began to glow with blue energy.
Non-Won Gak Joo raised his hand with a bored expression. The power difference was significant. Even if Jecheondae deviated from this, it was far from surviving through the military’s cooperation. Only the corpse of Jecheondae would be able to escape this place. A mischievous smile tugged at the corners of his lips.
“Kill them all.”
Just like that, the moment when the foot note of Biwon broke the atmosphere like a plate of thin ice and lowered his hand.
Boom-!
A jet-black sword plunged down from the sky, crushing hundreds of soldiers blocking the altar. Dozens of armored vehicle turrets were destroyed like dented cans by the light waves that blew around the sword with strong winds. Most of the warriors who did gain momentum died instantly, with their joints bent in bizarre ways or their skulls crushed and shattered.
“Keugh…!”
Even the non-circular pillars, which had a strong history, staggered back.
“What…?”
Seo Mun-Won-gil opened his eyes wide and stared at the horror in front of him. In just one surprise attack, only a few survived.
A man came down from the sky between the enormous dust and dirt that occurred at the same time as the attack. In the blurry vision, the man with the sword pulled out from the ground stared straight ahead with indifferent eyes.
Between the moment.
Breaking through the still silence, a fluttering flame galloped from the man’s feet.
