Episode 199. Digging through the fox hole

I circled around and killed the guys who were their eyes and ears one by one, then headed towards the center of the group of buildings.

There were also two or three of them hiding in the shabby buildings surrounding the area. Assassination doesn’t suit my personality. I don’t feel good about doing something I’m not good at, so I don’t do it well either. It took a long time to deal with one or two of them without making a sound.

Two guys were sitting on the veranda of someone else’s house. They didn’t even light a torch. Dalcheon carefully walked around the back of the building that was bent in the shape of the letter ‘ㄱ’ and then escaped through the passage leading to the backyard. He blocked their view through the half-open kitchen door and approached, revealing his upper body and simultaneously firing two knives. There shouldn’t be a sound. The knives flew quickly and caught the two guys’ necks, but one of them didn’t hit them exactly.

“Eww! Eww! Eww! It’s the enemy!”

Dalcheon quickly ran over and cut off the head of the struggling man, but it was too late. Hearing his cries, three men came running. Dalcheon crossed the yard and climbed over the wall while hugging it. As he was about to climb over another wall, two men ran over from the end of the alley and found Dalcheon.

“Over there!”

He charged without knowing who he was or whether he could handle him. One guy leaped diagonally, leaning against the wall. His pure white sword blade cut through the air. Dalcheon evaded by taking two steps in a diagonal direction from the direction the guy was running towards, and almost simultaneously slashed his sword upward from below. The guy whose stomach had been cut in the air fell down with a thud. Another guy’s sword swung out. He waited for the moment when his own teammate was being attacked. Those vicious guys. They don’t help their comrades, but rather exploit their deaths. Dalcheon turned his head to dodge, and stabbed the guy’s waist that had been exposed by the wind with his sword.

“Huh?”

The bastard’s body collapsed with a groan of frustration. Enemies swarmed from all sides. Dalcheon climbed over the wall to avoid them, and pulled himself up to the moat where Ilseonggun was. The moment he pulled himself up over the wall, flying weapons flew from all sides. Three, no, four flying weapons flew from different directions, drawing different trajectories. Dalcheon’s body sank down. The weapons that had lost their targets scattered in all directions.

Dalcheon, who had come down to the bottom of the wall, leaned his back against the wall and looked up. The men ran along the wall and rushed to the door, and three of them climbed over the wall. He swung his sword horizontally twice toward the point where the three men fell. He could not dodge while floating in the air. Two men cut down, and one blocked with his sword, but he fell with his back twisted by another sword strike.

The one who didn’t fit properly let out a scream. Was it to indicate the location? A dozen or so people rushed to the door, and two of them climbed up on the wall and looked down. They must have stopped because they thought they would get hit if they jumped down, but the view was good.

Dalcheon jumped onto the thatched roof. When there are many of them, it is urgent to get out of the place, but there are not many people who can climb up onto the roof.

“On the roof!”

The man on the wall shouted, and those who rushed through the door swung their swords. Those who tried to avoid the people became targets of the projectile weapons.

‘no way!’

I tried to dodge and block, but then I changed my mind. Dalcheon’s sword drew a Taegeuk. Countless afterimages appeared from each downward stroke of the sword. Dozens of swords seemed to change their angles every second. It was a very slow movement, but the flying swords and spears that were flying toward Dalcheon changed direction.

It didn’t just change direction, but bounced back at those who shot it at a faster speed. I don’t know if it flew exactly to the person who threw it, but since it was thrown and fell at the same time, it seemed like it fell immediately after being thrown.

Moreover, it did not just fly away. It hit the vital point precisely. The dagger pierced the vital point that would kill even a light hit, so the so-called masters fell down helplessly.

“stop!”

Those who decided that throwing it was not profitable stopped throwing it. Since Dalcheon was on the roof, looking up at it looked like a dog chasing a chicken.

“Hit!”

When I look at the guy who ordered it, he is the guy who stopped the rain from falling. How can I tell the difference when they are wearing the same clothes?

“lol.”

Dalcheon waited for the guys to come up. Two guys with strong lightness jumped up. Before they could get down on the roof, he swept down. As if he was harvesting, he swept down, and the guys who were coming down raised their swords to block, but he cut them down with their swords. What kind of force was at work? People and animals were cut down together. The sound of a whoosh and the silver light coming from the swords must have had something to do with it. However, he could not stop the guys who were coming up on the other side of the roof.

Dalcheon jumped and flew to the roof on the other side. Not far away, I could see Ilseong running away. Fortunately, the house he was on had a tiled roof. He threw two tiles at the two guys flying after him. In the darkness, the guys couldn’t avoid the black tiles that were darker than the darkness. The head of the guy who got hit in the mouth fell back and the guy who got hit in the stomach grabbed his stomach and rolled down the roof.

Dalcheon threw the tile again. It flew towards Ilseong-gun’s back as he ran away. Since it was bulky, it made a loud noise. Ilseong-gun twisted his waist and struck out his sword. It seemed like he struck back without thinking, but there was no action. He was a man of power.

“Hoo.”

Dalcheon, with his mouth wide open, jumped into the air in admiration. He did a half-circle in the air and continued flying, as if he was hanging on to a rope. He was very fast. It felt like an arrow was flying, not a person.

Ilseong-gun spread his feet left and right and lowered his center of gravity. It seemed like he was taking the basic stance of a watermelon. Surprised by the speed at which the sword was flying, Ilseong-gun took a half step back, raised his sword upward, and then quickly lowered it again.

The guards on either side of him stepped forward and swung their swords. There was no particular target. It was a clumsy gesture, swinging at something huge that was running toward them. In the place where several sword shadows were drawn chaotically, Dalcheon’s sword was drawn horizontally. The pale sword energy stretched out beautifully like a dream, drawing a white semicircle.

“100 million!”

“Ugh!”

“Ahhhh!”

Different screams were heard, and three people fell down. Could this also be wearing a shell? I shivered at the cruel intention of wearing a human shell.

Dalcheon, who had spun around in the air and stopped, looked down at Ilseong-gun as he landed on the ground. The sword had shattered and fallen to the ground, and blood was gushing from the place where the wrist that had been holding the sword had been blown off. Blood was gushing from the long, straight wound that had cut through his chest.

If you get hurt like that, you won’t survive.

“Ilsunggun?”

“pup!”

Dalcheon pressed the bastard’s forehead with his fingertips. The human’s soul left in an instant. The painful gaze that had been glaring at him disappeared in an instant, and he returned to being an object no different from the countless people we had killed. I checked to see if it was another shell, and raised my body.

That brief pause was the problem. Hundreds of soldiers rushed from the enemy camp. From the entrance, a hundred or so black-clad warriors ran forward, blocking the retreat route.

It was a desperate situation! It was a situation where there was no way out. I calmly looked left and right. It was a typical Yeojin maneuver tactic to run first as if folding wings. They do that when hunting. No matter how many there were, they would wrap around them as if folding wings and drive them to one side. It seemed as if they were preparing for Dalcheon to come. Cavalry is fast. Even in the very short moment of judgment, they would run like a tidal wave.

Sitting and waiting for fate may seem beautiful in the name of compliance. But how can we know if it is fate or not? Isn’t he dead yet? The mouth of Ilseong-gun, who was lying below, trembled.

“You are dead. Now.”

“You will die first.”

I struck Ilseong-gun, who was still alive, with my sword. He was going to die anyway, but I quickly dealt with him and stood tall between the two armies. I looked at the far back wall and checked the location of the trap field, then ran to the other side. I thought he would come towards us, but he moved in the opposite direction, so the black unmanned men flinched. They were also in danger in front of the cavalry that was charging forward.

“Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

He pulled out a large location and jumped into hundreds of cavalry. His sword light flashed and his sword energy flowed out. Just by touching Dalcheon, people and horses were split in two. One side of the cavalry that was charging at a terrifying speed was thrown back as it broke like a corn stalk. Sweeping in all directions and swinging his sword, an area was completely destroyed, which was no longer a human martial art.

They charged to sweep them away, but they were helplessly crushed, so the cavalry hurriedly withdrew. They made a detour, keeping a distance from Dalcheon, and then circled clockwise. They were just running, but there were hundreds of cavalry. If they were swept away by that wave, they would not be able to recover even their bones.

After surrounding Dalcheon in a circle, he ordered ‘shoot’. The black drones had either fled to the back or were swept away by the cavalry, so they were already out of sight.

“Shoot!”

Hundreds of arrows shot by hundreds of people flew toward a single point in the center. The bow is what catches the master. No matter how skilled a master is, he can’t use his strength if he gets hit by a few arrows. The way to catch a master is to shoot and then let go.

“Shoot!”

Dalcheon threw two talismans toward the sky. They are effective and fast, but they don’t help with studying, so he doesn’t use them very often. He has many enemies and is in a hurry. He took out two yellow talismans from his bosom and threw them into the air.

A whitish curtain formed around him, seemingly forming a separate, heterogeneous space.

“Shoot!”

Hundreds of arrows flew toward Dalcheon. However, for some reason, he seemed fine, whether he was dodging or blocking them. He swung his sword strangely, and the shining white blade blocked all the arrows flying toward him. No, it deflected them. Hundreds of arrows changed direction and flew toward the same side.

“evil!”

“Ahh!”

“Ahhhh!”

The horse jumped up and the rider fell, and the one who was hit by the arrow ran in the wrong direction and collided with his own team.

“Shoot! Shoot!”

He shoots an arrow at the order given in succession, but the moment he shoots, he gets hit himself. It was a scene that would make a ghost cry.

“Shoot straight!”

It was useless. Countless arrows that passed through the whitish membrane bounced off faster than they flew and hit the shooters accurately. Hundreds of them at the forefront of the siege were killed on the spot.

The commander was shocked by the strange incident he had never seen before. It was no use pushing with numbers or firing hundreds of arrows.

At that moment, black drones entered the encirclement.

“We will do it.”

It’s a welcome thing to hear. I didn’t have an answer even without it, but I’m so grateful that someone else did it for me. However, if I express my gratitude, they might look down on me.

“Make sure to handle it.”

“Yes, leave it to me.”

Beep!

A jarring noise was heard, and a hundred or so black unmanned men came out in front of the oval-shaped encirclement. Dalcheon waved his hand in the air. The transparent curtain that had risen above Dalcheon disappeared.

Dalcheon then ran towards the wall. He broke through one side of the siege line and passed through. He cut down everything he came across and broke down everything he was blocked by. As the terrified men retreated, one side of the siege loosened. He jumped through the gap that had become thinner.

“Run away!”

As the siege was broken, the men became desperate and shouted.

“Run away!”

“Run away!”

“Run away!”

However, the first one to say that he was running away was Dalcheon himself. As he ran away, he shouted that he was running away, and the Yeojin army followed suit. The commander in the center, Jal-an Eo-jeon, hurriedly shouted.

“Chase me! Chase me!”

Dalcheon jumped out about ten chapters. One side of Wonjin unraveled like a thread. Wonjin chased Dalcheon as he changed into a triangle formation. Ten chapters, twenty chapters, the distance gradually grew longer. A person can run faster on foot than on horseback. No, he kept a pitiful distance that made it seem like he could catch up if he ran a little more, and then he kept getting closer and further away.
