Genius Warlock - Genius Warlock chapter 288

288. Those who want to understand (4)

The Lady of Flames who absorbed all the fires in the forest.

When she was ready to attack and ready to attack, she disappeared like an extinguished match.

Look at Oliver.

“·················ogue.”

“·················ogue.”

“·················ogue.”

“·················ogue.”

Everyone was silent.

Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

Not only Oliver, but also the druid who summoned Lady Fire.

It was a natural reaction because it was an action that I did not understand at all.

And there was one more thing I didn’t understand.

It was why the fire spirit was not only surprised when he saw Oliver, but also fear and awe.

‘Well······. Come to think of it, so was Salamander.’

Oliver remembered an event he had forgotten for a moment.

The first time I met Kevin on an out-of-town mission. He nearly died several times, but the attack using the last Salamander was especially dangerous.

The range was relatively narrow, but the firepower was more than that.

‘Even I wasn’t well defended. Nevertheless, it was thanks to the fact that the spirit took advantage of the moment when it felt fear as it is now and launched a counterattack… Why did I only care about this now?’

If you think about it, it was pretty weird. Why didn’t he care about this?

Well, yes, I didn’t think about it that long.

‘It’s not that important, let’s ask the old man later.’

After concluding the matter, Oliver looked at the druids on the other side.

The number is six. They, like Oliver, were puzzled by the current situation.

Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

No, he seemed more shocked than puzzled.

Feeling very unbelievable and unacceptable absurdity.

In a way, it was a natural reaction.

Druids have been training since childhood to communicate with nature.

For the most part, it was the power that I obtained in exchange for giving up my precious childhood and all the ties of the world.

Thanks to that, he was able to put the great power of nature into his body, manipulate nature, and communicate with spirits and world trees.

However, after such efforts, as soon as the summoned spirit saw a certain warlock, it unilaterally cut off communication and disappeared?

It was a different issue from simply being shot or the magic had failed.

It was a kind of betrayal.

A betrayal of his precious childhood efforts, maybe even life.

For this reason, the druids showed more hostility and hatred toward Oliver than merely an enemy.

“You bastard…! What have you done!!”

The druids, who failed to summon the spirits, each strengthened their bodies with the power of nature and rushed towards Oliver with a huge hammer and spear in their hands.

The momentum was very ferocious.

Oliver looked at them and said.

“Hunger… Please.”

At Oliver’s request, a huge, ugly man made of flames appeared from the forest, burning and breaking trees.

The Hunger, who had grown in size, presumably ate quite a few people, snatched the druid and threw it into the air with a nimble movement that did not match its bloated size, and swallowed it with its huge mouth with torn ears.

“Ahh…!! aah…! ············!!!”

The druid, who was caught in Hunger’s grasp and baked to a golden color, was deprived of the freedom to even scream when it entered his mouth, and entered Hunger’s stomach to become a living firewood.

“Ahhhh!!!”

The druids who watched their comrades die horribly before their eyes shouted in rage.

My heart was driven into a corner by repeated shocking situations.

The druids joined forces and struck the Hunger by causing a huge wooden pole to rise from the ground.

Kuwoong-!!!

The same technique suffered when the first Hunger rushed.

The only difference was that at first the Hunger went bad, but this time it wasn’t.

Hunger’s bare chest, to his surprise, caught the wooden poles made by the druids.

the stronger the power. Oliver soon knew why.

‘Eating people makes Hunger stronger.’

Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

Not sure, but Oliver made tentative conclusions.

The difference right now was whether he ate people including druids or not.

As the druids withstood the combined attack, Hunger held on to the pillars with both hands to strengthen them.

Amazing profit…!!

The wooden poles imbued with the power of nature gradually burned and weakened by the Hunger flames, and then they were crushed.

Hunger drove the momentum and attacked the druids with his long, slender arms.

“Kyakyakyakyyayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyybi!!”

Hunger sprints wildly and swings arms and legs.

It was nothing more than a writhing close to a beast, but when combined with its gigantic size and vicious heat, that alone was threatening enough.

As Oliver was helping Hunger to deal with the druids, something rushed through the forest with a strange atmosphere.

A very strange yet familiar feeling. He was a member of the anti-development committee.

Easy profit…! Ride on!! Knock-knock… Bang!!

The man, with a bandage all over his body and a robe that covered him from head to toe, ran at unbelievable speed with both eyes and rushed through the trees towards the leaping hunger.

A living fireball the size of a house.

“ok······?”

Hunger was taken aback for a moment, but immediately came to his senses and opened his mouth to the bandaged man who was flying in.

to swallow.

Bang-!!

Surprisingly, the bandaged man suddenly appeared, wielding an elongated quarterstaff made of meat, and pierced Hunger’s mouth with a shockwave.

It was quite surprising.

How could you overcome Hunger, who can fight many druids, with just your own strength?

Hunger, whose mouth was completely pierced from front to back, was bleeding like lava in agony.

But that wasn’t the end.

The bandaged man, who had not suffered any damage from Hunger’s flames, dazzledly swung his quarter-staff, and ran again, smashing Hunger’s ankles and performing a shinki that cuts his waist.

A skill that most superhumans of Landa cannot imitate.

A series of shockwaves shattered the Hunger, said the bandaged man with his quarterstaff at the druid, mesmerized by the sight.

“Your captain is calling.”

Unlike other anti-development committee members, his tone was natural.

The druids came to their senses and all fled to the center of the forest where Sheamus was.

And they weren’t the only ones running away.

Focusing on the warlock’s eyes and looking around, the surviving druids retreated to Sheamus in the forest, and the vacancy was filled by people from the Anti-Development Committee.

Surprisingly, despite the absence of the druids, the Anti-Development Committee thwarted the following Anti-Shemus Coalition with its superior physical abilities.

– Tap!!

As he turned his head to the sound, the bandaged man holding the quarter staff began to move again.

The target was not Oliver, but giant zombies running this way. The three zombies, who had their bodies strengthened to the extreme, and wore keratin armor, exploded like water balloons with shock waves that rip through the air.

Simple yet overwhelming power.

Even with his speed, he quickly approached Oliver before he could react.

The bandaged man raised the quarterstaff high towards Oliver’s head.

***

“after······. It took my breath away.”

Sheamus muttered as she ran both hands through her green hair.

Starting with a sudden black lightning strike, the charter suddenly went unfavorable.

The magic that had been prepared even before the founding of ABC was halved, and hordes of monstrous zombies and monsters made of fire appeared, breaking through the defense line with impractical ease.

Thanks to this, the thousands of troops surrounding the forest were stimulated and pushed like crazy.

Protecting the forest with magic, even if there were druids, there was a limit to what they could do to stop them.

By the way, the Anti-Development Committee, which was called to move to another place, voluntarily gave up troops to serve as a shield.

I don’t know why, but it must have been luck.

‘But I don’t like it. Unknown luck and unhappiness are essentially the same thing.’

There was no circumstance to refuse, however, so Seamus, as suggested by the ‘Elder’, summoned troops and gathered all the druids here.

‘Fortunately, the anti-development committee guys are doing a good job. Even if we fell, they could hold out like this.’

Sheamus thought as he looked through the forest with the magic that he had hung all over the forest.

The anti-development committee, which had bandages all over its body, was blocking more than 1,000 city troops by using strange physical characteristics such as superhuman strength, resilience, and tentacles.

He seemed to understand why the city, the most gangster in Landa, couldn’t subdue them.

It was worthwhile to be hired with an astronomical sum of money.

‘It’s nothing compared to the money we’ve earned and the money we’ll make in the future.’

Sheamus set aside complicated thoughts and focused on the important task in front of him.

It was none other than a space movement ceremony being prepared by the Anti-Development Committee, and people with rags and bandages all over their bodies were building an altar with freshly killed corpses and performing the ceremony.

It was similar to a pseudo-religious rite that is often practiced in Landa, but the difference was that it actually worked.

As evidence of that, the corpse altar piled up one by one was throbbing like a new life.

pounding. pounding. pounding. pounding.

Magic, black magic, even the power of nature, it radiated a power different from the Holy Law.

Still, if we had to compare it, it was similar to black magic or holy magic.

“It’s funny….”

Seamus laughed. It’s similar to black magic, but it’s also similar to holy magic. Even Sheamus, who had no religious beliefs, thought he was ungodly.

Well, profane or not, what does it matter?

After the ceremony was over, Sheamus was able to move to the safe place he wanted.

‘The question is, can you hold on until then? Also, is it possible to move it in time?’

Sheamus thought as he looked at the four druids surrounding the World Tree.

They put aside the pride of the druids, and they were trying to transfer Eve, which had been forcibly tied to the world tree by the vulgar mechanism of the wizard, to the world tree cut in the form of a log.

Surprisingly, Eve didn’t go as planned despite the druid’s efforts.

‘On the theme of the world tree….’

She thought as she looked at Eve who didn’t move as she wanted while Sheamus was busy.

“What do you think?”

“sorry. president······. It may take a little more time.”

A female druid with a branch tattoo on her face asked for it.

In terms of his ability to handle the world tree, he was comparable to Seamus.

“I think you’ve heard that before?”

“I’m really sorry······. I don’t know why, but the resistance suddenly grew stronger. First of all, I think we will have to force Eve to hibernate.”

Sheamus watched the whole forest through his magic.

The Anti-Development Committee was holding up well, but Su was also strong. The enemies were coming closer and closer. There was no time.

“Anything is fine. First of all, unconditionally transfer Eve to that world tree. If it doesn’t work, it doesn’t matter if it hurts a little. It’s better to be broken than to lose.”

Sheamus pointed to the world tree cut in the form of a log and gave the order, and the female druid nodded.

Because he knew the value of Eve as much as his outstanding skills.

Meanwhile, the anti-development committee’s awareness of space movement reached its peak, and the druids returned one by one.

Among the dogs was Dugan.

Dugan, who went to stop Dave.

He took more than ten fellow druids, but only four returned.

‘Is Dave really this strong?’

Seamus had a question. After all, it was common knowledge that dealing with two is harder than dealing with one.

It was no different than a battle of superhumans that transcended ordinary people.

Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

No, it could be said that it was worse for the superhumans who could go to a goal even if they got one wrong hit.

But, to drive a large number of druids to the brink of annihilation. It was strange, but it was too strange.

“No, it doesn’t make sense. president.”

Dugan said in an unusual state even if he pretended to be.

“What doesn’t make sense?”

“Hey, Dave. There’s something strange about that warlock. As soon as the spirit saw him, he ran away.”

“Are the spirits running away? What nonsense is that?”

Seamus frowned and asked.

Spirits are one being that makes up the great nature. It didn’t make sense to run away just looking at a human.

It was also a kind of betrayal.

Betrayal of us druids who gave their whole lives to protect nature.

While Dugan was explaining what was going on, something else quickly approached this way.

I thought it was an enemy, but luckily it wasn’t.

This time, he was the elder of the Anti-Development Committee who was responsible for and helped Seamus.

He moved at an astonishing speed even for a druid and arrived here in an instant.

Obviously, I was there to help Dugan and kill Dave.

Seamus looked at him and asked a question.

“Are you finished already?”

“no······. The contract ends here.”

The elders of the Anti-Development Committee notified unilaterally.
