Episode 38
dump!
Furry!!
The Hongryeon troops advancing from the north began to fall one by one.
The wild people who saw this sight from afar were bewildered.
“Why are they suddenly collapsing?”
“What’s going on… …?”
The people of Hongryeon began to panic even more.
“what?!”
“Why did you guys suddenly collapse… Keuk… … !”
Sudden shortness of breath, weakness, fainting.
As troops began to fall for unknown reasons, Hongryeon’s healer lineage players began to step forward.
Shh …
All sorts of healing skills rained down on the fallen.
However, it was not a serious symptom, as those who had fallen began to recover and get up quite quickly.
“What was it?”
“Well, it wasn’t anything special.”
Unfortunately, something terrible happened.
This is because all those who recovered and got up soon collapsed again with the same symptoms.
“Ugh… … .”
“what…….”
Only then did some healers understand the reason for this situation.
“It’s an addiction.”
All of those who fell were poisoned.
Because even though the toxins in his body were detoxified and cured, he collapsed after being poisoned again by the toxins that flowed in from somewhere.
First, the soldiers wore gas masks.
And I started looking for the source of the poison.
After some time, a healer discovered the source of the poison.
Corpses.
The poison was emanating from the dead corpses in a colorless form.
but-
‘why?’
Of course, corpses tend to rot and therefore produce a foul odor.
But the stench of a corpse does not poison people.
It just bothers my nose a little.
But why on earth is poison emanating from these corpses?
The reason was simple.
It was because of the cause of death of these corpses.
These are all people who died at the hands of Yeongsu.
Among them, there were those who were cut by the poisonous sword Sigal.
A poison sword that poisons the opponent.
Even after they were killed, the poison continued to burrow into their body tissues, accelerating their decay and creating large amounts of new poison in the process.
The poison thus produced slowly spread into the air and penetrated the respiratory organs of the Red Lotus soldiers.
And the moment the critical point of absorption into the respiratory tract was exceeded, the addiction occurred.
dump!
This was the reason why Hongryeon’s soldiers suddenly fell in droves.
“Put on your gas mask!”
“Don’t approach the corpse! There’s poison coming out of the corpse!!”
After figuring out the cause of this addiction, Hongryeon began to take urgent measures.
But even then, the situation was not very good.
Most of the soldiers who had finally recovered were poisoned again, the healers had already used up too much energy to treat them again, and they didn’t even know how to detoxify the corpses that were spewing poison.
In addition, the gas mask worn to prevent poisoning had a negative effect on combat power.
This is because the gas mask itself significantly reduced the wearer’s breathing ability.
Or get addicted and collapse.
If you have difficulty breathing due to the gas mask.
Most of the Northern Corps were those whose fighting power was weakened in this way.
The moment when advance became virtually impossible.
Damn it.
The sound of footsteps that she never wanted to hear was heard in front of Hongryeon.
“I……!”
“Cheon Yeong-su… … !”
Cheon Yeong-su stood in front of the northern corps.
Holding a dagger in each hand.
But it was strange.
Youngsoo wasn’t wearing a gas mask, and yet he didn’t show any signs of being poisoned.
The air everywhere was filled with poison.
“Uh, how… … ?”
“well.”
The reason why Youngsoo is fine even in this poisonous environment.
It was all thanks to the unicorn horn necklace hanging around her neck.
Because the powerful purifying energy emanating from the unicorn’s horn neutralized all approaching poison.
But Youngsoo didn’t bother to tell me this fact.
Instead, he answered with a knife.
Shhh!
The two daggers held in Youngsoo’s hands flashed.
The soldiers of the Northern Legion of the Red Lotus began to be cut down in an instant.
Fighting against those who are addicted and weakened.
It was so easy.
Shukak!
Phew!!
“Ugh!”
“Shoot! Shoot that bastard and kill him!!”
The confused soldiers began firing their guns wildly.
But, when the bullet was fired while the mind was confused due to poison and confusion, there was no way it would hit the right spot.
Friendly fire began to occur frequently, and some people began to fall to their own guns rather than the hands of the commander.
“player!”
“Where are our players?!”
Eventually, Hongryeon’s close combat specialist players rushed towards Yeongsu.
However, Youngsoo had no intention of taking on players in one-on-many battles.
Yeongsu escaped the scene in one breath using light air power.
—-
[Skill] ‘Direct File Island’ activated.
—-
Wedge!
Stand up! Stand up!
He ran in a straight line at a terrifying speed, leaving the scene and cutting down enemies around him.
And Youngsu disappeared from their sight.
“This kid… … !”
“Where did this kid go?!”
“Hey, over there, that’s… … .”
The Hongryeon players who were looking for the suddenly disappeared Yeongsu discovered something.
A single dagger stuck in the ground.
It was one of the two daggers that Youngsoo had been holding a moment ago.
“what?”
“Why did this kid drop his weapon… … ?”
One player absentmindedly walked towards the dagger stuck in the ground.
At that moment, another player watching from behind felt something strange.
Because I saw the dagger vibrating slightly.
“Hey! Don’t come near that knife… … .”
But the moment I shouted, it was too late.
Shukak!
The dagger that had been stuck in was pulled out on its own and pierced the chest of the player who was approaching him.
“Ugh… … !”
Instant death.
The dagger pulled into the air killed one player and then flew away at a terrifying speed.
Okay!
The dagger entered Youngsu’s hand as if it was being sucked in.
This dagger is a set of two swords, the .
It was one of the items discovered in the basement of a shopping mall after the Wild Shop raid.
The characteristic of the twin swords Tweenas is that the attractive and repulsive forces only work between the two daggers.
The user can control its attractive and repulsive force.
Thanks to that, it was possible to pull a dagger from a distance with manpower and retrieve it like now.
“Okay, I’ve roughly gotten used to it.”
Yeongsu brought the two daggers’ hilts together and forcibly increased the repulsive force between them.
And at the moment when that repulsive force was at its peak, one side was let go.
Phew!
The sword, pushed back by the condensed repulsive force, flew away like an arrow.
The flying dagger pierced the soldiers in an instant, killing them.
“Ugh!”
“Ugh!!”
After that, he retrieves the dagger he threw and attacks again.
And this wasn’t the end of Youngsoo’s use of this sword.
Yeongsu swung his daggers as if he were a swordsman, with one sword in his hand and the other floating in the air, by exquisitely adjusting the ratio of gravity and repulsion.
Those who rushed forward only thinking about the length of the blade held by Yeongsu were slaughtered by the sword fluttering in the air.
At close range, use a double-edged sword slash, at medium range, use a sword technique, and at long range, use a throwing weapon that flies like an arrow.
The knife thrown there can be retrieved freely.
From a fighting standpoint, you had to constantly deal with tricky attacks that were impossible to deal with.
The funny thing is, there were a few people on the Hongryeon side who had the twin swords Twinas.
But there was no one who could use the twin swords as freely, lethally, and trickily as Youngsoo.
The twin swords were a perfect example of how powerful a weapon can become depending on the user’s skills.
Besides, Youngsu’s scary point wasn’t just his swordsmanship.
Kaaaaang!
One player was taken aback when he received Youngsu’s dagger with his shield.
‘What the heck, you little punk, why don’t you get tired?!’
Yeongsu didn’t get tired at all.
No, to be exact, the more I fought, the stronger I became.
The reason was the red energy that was constantly being sucked into Youngsoo’s body.
Skill, karma enhancement.
A special skill exclusive to assassins that steals the Karma Points of those they kill and uses them to their own advantage.
The KP that Youngsoo absorbed while cutting down countless people on this battlefield was enormous.
Because of that, Youngsoo continued to fight without getting tired, and instead, he became stronger.
And with that strengthened body, he started killing Hongryeon players.
So the northern legions were divided by the leader.
In a typical war, when 30 percent of the force becomes incapacitated, it is considered ‘annihilation’.
However, the number of people killed directly or indirectly by the leader in the Northern Army was almost 50 percent.
With this, the Northern Army Corps had virtually lost its fighting ability.
The eastern legions were swept away by the surprise attack and elemental bombardment of the Youngsu.
And the northern legion that was torn apart by Youngsoo’s poison attack and swordsmanship a little while ago.
Two of the four legions of the Red Lotus were rendered incapacitated.
Considering the difference in forces between the Hongryeon and the KPA, it was a frightening result.
But it was never a time to let down our guard.
This meant that half of the troops still remained on the Hongryeon side.
And above all, the Southern Army still had a trump card that it had never played before.
In addition, the Western Corps, which had been oppressed by Sehwa’s spirit magic, began to slowly reorganize its troops.
This is because Sehwa’s energy has dropped and the spirit’s summoning has been canceled.
Gurruruk-
The Southern Corps, which had barely preserved its forces and was pushing forward while hiding its secret weapon,
The Western Corps began to reorganize its forces.
So they finally arrived at the very edge of the wild.
“firing!”
Wow wow wow!!
The guns of the Southern Corps opened fire.
The southern wall of the castle was rapidly being eroded.
And the Western Corps, which had finished reorganizing, also began firing their guns.
The western and southern walls of the castle began to take simultaneous hits.
Thanks to the gardeners’ hard work and reinforcement of the walls, the walls were not easily breached.
But the situation was never positive for the KPA.
First of all, the mana battery on the rooftop is completely depleted.
Elementalist Noh Ji-an was exhausted, perhaps due to overusing the mana battery, and spiritist So Se-hwa was unconscious next to him.
All personnel capable of long-range area attacks are retired.
Eventually, melee specialist players who had been doing almost nothing until now started to step up.
Guys like Yong Kwon Sa Park Bu-hyeong and Inspector Jang Do-su.
“I’m going out! I’ll go out and somehow reduce the enemy’s forces!”
“I’m going too.”
The moment the two of them were about to cross the wall.
Crunch!
A sudden black lightning strike stopped the two in their tracks.
The father shouted.
“Hey, Woo Jun-young! Get out of the way!”
“Don’t go out.”
“Then should I just stay here and die?!”
“Professor Chun’s orders were to stay locked up and protect our wildness.”
Your role is Mercury.
Your role is not to go out and destroy the enemy, but to lock the gates and hold out until you die.
Trust me, if you hang in there you will win.
“Don’t you remember what you said?!”
But the parents did not back down.
“That was when the wall was still intact! Right now, the wall is almost collapsing!! We can’t let those Hongryeon bastards keep firing off shells!”
“You can’t move until the professor gives new orders!!”
“Get out of the way!”
“I can’t avoid it!!”
At that moment.
Kwaaaaang!
Loud noise.
A terrifying roar like nothing I’ve ever heard before.
Immediately afterwards, only a huge hole remained in the southern wall.
The wild people became lost in thought.
“…what?”
“It suddenly broke like this?!”
On the other hand, Hongryeon’s side was in a good mood.
“You idiots, do you think we weren’t even prepared for this?”
This was the trump card that Hongryeon had prepared, the missile.
A precise medium-range surface-to-air missile.
“… Those kids even had missiles?!”
The cadets’ brains were literally paralyzed.
Missiles? Where the hell did those come from?!
And Youngsu was also watching this scene from afar.
‘You possessed missiles… … ?’
This was information I couldn’t find out while spying earlier.
Because the missile launch vehicle itself was disguised as a regular truck.
Yeongsu thought busily.
Because once they decide to start raining down missiles, the wildness is over.
‘…is that the only solution?’
Yeongsu, who had decided something, started running to the underground warehouse of the wild shopping center.
Meanwhile, beyond the breached wall, Hongryeon was preparing to launch a second missile.
“Ready to launch!”
“foot…….”
Kwaaang!
Just before the missile is launched.
A sticky, sharp black blade drew a long line in front of the Red Lotus Legion.
A devastating blow so powerful that it cuts through the ground like a crevasse.
Hongryeon, who saw that, was unable to press the missile launch button.
And the one who had struck that blow walked towards me from a distance, muttering.
“…I didn’t want to use this.”
There stood the leader holding the magic sword.
