I Became the Weakest Summoned of the Genius Summoner - Chapter 590
590 – The Master Is an Archmage
“······?! This, Ilwol?!”
It was only when she had time to catch her breath that Yeonhee recognized Ilwol’s signal and looked around in surprise.
‘It’s still faint. Did they just come back?’
I don’t know where she went, but she was wondering what had happened, and now her frustrated heart finally broke through.
Three weeks of suffering, longer than the time I spent meeting Il-Wol combined.
“Is it January?!”
“Ilwol? Is it finally here?”
“Not yet – but I think it will come soon.”
“Really, please tell me to come quickly!!”
“Phew… If I just hold on a little longer…”
Colleagues react enthusiastically, almost cheering, to the appearance of Il-wol, who had been missing for over three weeks.
If only Ilwol was there- If only Ilwol was there-
Their eyes, who must have thought this hundreds of times, began to come to life.
* * *
A few ten minutes after Ilwol killed the three-headed orc. ‘Cheonsudan’, led by Cha Jin-hyuk, joined forces with two top guild teams in the same region to block the pouring orcs.
They settled at the beginning of Hwaunsan Mountain, at an altitude of 727.7m.
It seems like it was a choice made to have a slight advantage in the formation, but in reality, it was due to being pushed back by the Orcs’ momentum.
What is surprising is that, despite being pushed so unilaterally, the size of the force is actually increasing.
It was said that the number of people joining the alliance of the three guilds was greater than the number of people dying.
“Is it worth doing more than I thought? Am I making a wrong decision?”
‘Teacher Cha’ nodded in response to Cha Jin-hyuk’s question.
“Certainly, the role of weapons and armor made of cardinite is significant. After replacing the equipment, we are not losing out much.”
The weapons they used had already rusted with the blood of the Orcs and were no longer usable.
However, the crude equipment made of cardinite that had been prepared in advance was still doing its job.
‘How on earth did they know this? The rumor that there was someone in the association who could see the future wasn’t entirely false.’
Cha Seon-saeng agreed, and Hwang Tae-wook also agreed.
“If it weren’t for this, we would have already been swept away.”
The basics were high-level orc warriors, and as time went by, more powerful guys beyond the fighter level were appearing.
Of course, they are not a big deal to the top forces of the Thousand Thousand Guilds, but even that becomes meaningless when there are more than tens of thousands of them.
“What should I do with that tentacle monster? After dealing with it a few times, I’ve got the hang of it.”
“Hmm… The Chimera guy didn’t have any tactics at all. If I manage the restraint cooldown well, don’t you think you can start a counterattack slowly?”
The main members of the Cheonsudan, including Hwang Tae-wook and Ha Se-rin, had already experienced killing three chimeras.
The well-coordinated joint attack of the A-class hunters was sufficient to deal with monsters that had reached S-class, so it was a confidence boost.
They even dropped items called contaminated crystals with a high probability, so the rewards were great.
“Whoa… I’m exhausted. I need to win the game quickly.”
“This is a long-term war.”
Of course, there was no damage for three weeks.
Two days before the orcs burst through the gate.
Including two of Hwang Tae-wook’s five subordinates being chopped down by ‘Improved Rough Tooth’ who suddenly infiltrated the guild office, more than 20% of ‘Cheonsudan’s own power was lost.
Considering the power consumed over three weeks, the damage was so dizzying that I don’t even want to think about it.
However, seeing that the number of orcs pouring out of the gate has decreased noticeably, it seems that the worst is over.
If you think about it again, the reason they were able to prepare for battle in advance was, ironically, because the Chimera had spread awareness early on by roaming the area.
It was proof that Denard’s plan wasn’t perfect, but the hunters thought they were just lucky.
“Whoa, let me open the way.”
Cha Jin-hyuk walked towards the black orcs coming up the bottom of the mountain.
Hunters are keeping an eye on Cha Jin-hyuk, wondering if he will show off his amazing abilities once again.
He extends his hand forward and drops both index fingers down.
Kuuung───!!
As soon as the ground sank, thousands of orcs fell to the ground and bowed their heads.
Wow──
The hunters’ exclamation bursts out naturally.
Cha Jin-hyuk deserved such a reaction because after overcoming his crisis of death, he grew rapidly and his potential exploded.
Gulp-
Someone swallows dry saliva and glances at Cha Jin-hyuk.
A genius without a doubt.
Among the existing A-level and lower hunters, there were several who were evaluated as having potential comparable to Lee Yeon-hee and Noh Hayun, but it was clear that Cha Jin-hyuk was different.
His abilities have already reached a level that causes awe in those around him.
“Wipe them all away!!”
At Cha Seon-saeng’s shout, about 3,000 hunters jump forward all at once, raising their magic power to the fullest.
It is impossible to defeat all those orc troops.
Still, I thought it might be possible to clear a path while heading to the shelter.
But then.
‘
“Hmm?! W-what is that?!”
“Uh huh?!”
About a hundred flaming meteorites began to fall from the sky onto the area where the orcs were concentrated.
The orcs were swallowed up without being able to do anything because they fell at a speed that made it difficult to react to such a wide range.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa- kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa- kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa- kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-wa!
“Ugh!!”
A destructive power so great that it shakes the earth.
In short, it was a great magic that bordered on disaster.
“Meteo…?!”
“This energy… Could it be my master?!”
“Has the owner arrived?!”
The hunters who were rushing forward with great vigor stand still and stare blankly at the orcs who are melting and exploding due to the falling meteorite.
The orcs were so hated, but now they feel like they are incredibly weak creatures.
“It’s an opportunity!! Everyone rush in!!”
“Push into this gap!!”
Since they were hunters who had experienced all kinds of hardships, the time to get used to it was short.
The Hunter Allied Forces succeeded in breaking through one point at once.
“Haha, I don’t know what it is, but it’s really cool!!”
Hwang Tae-wook let out a rare, cheerful laugh, and the other hunters were no different.
Did an archmage pass through this area?
I don’t know what it is, but thousands of hunters, including ‘Cheonsudan’, roared in unison with heart-pounding pleasure and began slaughtering the cursed orcs.
* * *
‘I did it just in case, but the timing was good.’
I passed by anyway because it was heading towards my house, but I didn’t know they could help me in this way.
The subordinates who were looking up at me soon became immersed in the battle.
Cha Jin-hyuk, whom I had not seen in a long time, as well as Cha Seon-saeng and his subordinates such as Hase-rin and Hwang Tae-wook were fighting properly.
The red-hot earth.
A few minutes had passed since Meteor was used, but the flames from the dead orcs were still following and tormenting the living ones.
Perhaps it was because of the magic power exceeding 7,000 or because of the increased status, but the number of meteorites summoned increased significantly.
‘With this level of destructive power and scope… I can only say that stealing Meteor from Jo Gi-man was truly a stroke of luck…’
I became confident that I would be able to perform well even when the main base of the Orc army arrived.
‘But are these the concept of an advance team? Last time, the main base fell right away without anything like this…’
Of course, that thought was fleeting, and I turned to Yeonhee again.
However, what made me stop again while moving was the red gate that gave off a dense magical energy that I had not seen in other gates.
‘What is that so intense?’
I had no idea what kind of monster would come out of there again. Could it be Orc Commander Por?
But just at that moment, there was someone walking out of the gate.
[Stealth]
A being with an evil energy that makes you think of covering your body first.
‘······ Orc battle general level?’
It was much lower than the ‘Por’ I encountered in the last hidden dungeon, but it is not a comparison since Por is the monster among the monsters who would hold the position of commander-in-chief among the Orc corps commanders.
I just thought that this guy had the fighting power appropriate for the rank of an Orc combat general. No, he’s definitely a high-ranking monster even at the level of a combat general.
‘I think it will be near the mid-level even in the transcendent level… Will it surpass the first Escaron?’
It’s not easy to guess who he is stronger than me, but I guess that’s the case.
The transcendent of the countercurrent, Kang Yeon-soo, Hyun Il-hwan, Ma Gwang-jin, Yoo Min-jeong, etc.
He It’s stronger than the first Escaron, which was barely captured by the cooperation of many powerful people.
‘There is no answer other than Uncle Joong-gil.’
I try to use my hiding ability to the fullest and increase the distance from him. You can’t waste time by provoking people for no reason.
I slowly moved away from him and now I feel safe, but I couldn’t help but focus all my attention on him.
The Orcs flock like a wave towards the guy who just came out into another world, and without saying a word, they line up in order.
The Orc battle general, who was looking at his men with satisfaction, raised one hand and roared, causing the magical energy in the air to fluctuate greatly.
‘It’s creepy. There are at least hundreds of monsters like that… And as far as I know, there are more than 20 monsters like corps commanders that are stronger than those…’
It was a part that made me understand again the situation in my previous life where I had given up territory little by little to the Orcs.
In fact, the only reason we were able to survive in a situation where we were overwhelmingly outgunned was because of Jogiman.
Wouldn’t that have led to a situation where people around the world only praised Jogi and even created a religion?
My head was spinning, but I picked up the pace again.
From noble mtl dot come
It is unknown how many monsters like the one we just saw have appeared in our country, but even if just a few such monsters appear and lead the Orcs, the hunters will have a hard time.
Still, Yeonhee had already sent a signal confirming safety, so I wasn’t too impatient.
‘Hmm?!’
While flying, two other huge energies were detected.
‘It’s from Ilseom Guild?’
One side was definitely an energy I knew.
Hyeon Il-hwan.
He, the next power of Ilseom, was clashing with another being with strong energy.
‘······? What are you doing, you crazy people?’
However, the person Hyun Il-hwan was fighting was not an Orc warrior or an Orc battle general, but a human.
Even against his father’s younger brother.
‘In this situation, you are deciding between life and death with Hyun Joong-seop?’
Considering Ilseom’s internal power structure, it could have happened, but the timing was terrible. One of the two must have taken advantage of the confusion to stab them in the back.
‘Ugh- I don’t know. You idiots, take care of it.’
I think I briefly heard that something similar happened in a past life.
No matter how much the world’s trends change, does the history of human relationships repeat itself?
We passed them and moved on for a few more minutes, almost reaching our house.
────?!!
A magic cannon containing the energy of lightning flew towards me from afar.
It’s a joke!!
‘If you get hit by this, you could die-‘
[Blinking]
I barely managed to avoid the completely unexpected attack by moving through space, but I couldn’t help but be very surprised when I saw the subject of the attack.
‘Um, what is that?’
A huge, skeletal monster that was probably about 20 meters tall was flapping its majestic wings and firing magic cannons with lightning attributes in all directions.
‘Bone Dragon…?!’
The thing that feels familiar is definitely a summoned beast.
‘Did Yeonhee do something? Giant quest clear reward? You’ve already overcome that?’
That was my guess.
‘The Bone Dragon… Oh my god.’
The highest level monster known to be encountered with an extremely low probability in the highest level dungeon is ‘Skeleton Knight Commander of the Ancient Empire.
There is a rare chance that they will appear riding a bone dragon, and the one I am seeing now matches the appearance of the bone dragon exactly.
