I Became the Weakest Summoned of the Genius Summoner - Chapter 474
474 – Successful but Failed
Pomegranate.
A fire attribute wizard in charge of one axis of the White Knight Guild.
The transcendent ‘Fire Lord’, who was called the strongest pyromancer in Korea.
Considering that it had already been more than four years since her whereabouts she became unknown, it was safe to say that among the hunters active in Korea, there was virtually no one who wielded stronger fire magic than her.
And now, with the help of countless helpers, she has succeeded in accessing the main body of the Devouring Creeper.
“It took over an hour just to get to the core, you dirty bastard!”
Although Pomegranate successfully reached the main body of the Devouring Creeper in one go through a mysterious passage, the skin her was so thick that it took over an hour just to penetrate through it.
In the end, it was Team 1’s top hunters who gave us that time, and Pomegranate felt that a lot of sacrifice had been made along the way.
[How…]
The Devouring Creeper couldn’t understand the current situation.
How was it possible to break through so many barriers? Of all the humans who originally lived on this earth, not a single one succeeded in that?
I am a human being no different from them… How?
Haha! This is an uncontrollable force!”
Pomegranate received a buff from the nameless transcendent and her magic attack power increased significantly.
Would you believe that each stream of flame bursting from her body had enough power to burn hundreds of Creeper Guards?
The Devouring Creeper realized something when he saw a human with a clearly alien flame of energy.
[It wasn’t my strength alone…]
Only then did her body realize its shortcomings and sigh.
[Humans are not weak…]
I regretted finding out about it too late.
And soon, magical power exploded from Pomegranate’s body
Her overall combat ability could not be said to be the highest class among S-class wizards.
Even her her her her spearman her her her Park Jin-gon, who had just entered her her S-class her her, seemed confident that he could deal with her.
However, the reason she was called the second best among fire attribute hunters in Korea was because of her one skill her her her.
“Burning heart—evil lord of Pyrrhonis—I borrow your ever-burning embers—!”
As Pomegranate used her special move, her biological clock began to return to the prime time of her early 20s.
As she regained her white skin and vitality, even if just for a moment, she felt joy like never before.
“Kyahahahahaha!! Ahahahahah!!”
Her status rose several levels thanks to the abilities of the transcendental, and she was fortunate enough to achieve great enlightenment. She was so excited that she felt like she was going crazy, but she didn’t stop the terrible flames and kept amplifying them.
A deadly monster that was clearly heading towards Korea.
Having been recognized for her role in killing this guy, her future will be bright.
“Burn up───!!”
[Purgatory industrial fire]
Grrrr!”
Pomegranate’s once-in-a-lifetime special move unfolded, and terrible flames erupted along the body of the Devouring Creeper.
The flames of hell, filled with karma that will never be extinguished.
It was an attack containing the essence of Pomegranate, an S-class hunter who had been favored by the fire god ‘Libicenax’.
It has a very long activation time, and it is a skill with great limitations as it can only be used four times in a lifetime. When I saw its power, it was understandable and worth it.
An unquenchable flame spreads rapidly along the roots of the body, drawing a line.
This is the flame of Libisenax, who is considered the strongest among the flame gods known to date.
Even the water god ‘Rune’ will not be able to easily extinguish that flame.
The hunters of Team 1 clenched their fists as they watched the flames spread.
[aa…!]
A being who had no choice but to watch it in a confined space was in despair, shedding tears of blood.
“Uuuuu!”
Who could know how a child feels when he sees his mother burning, but the hunters who saw the ‘First Escaron’ screaming in pain could only think about how they could escape from that crazy monster.
The thought of having to run away.
Although it was not appropriate for a team of hunters made up of the strongest members of the punitive force, the overwhelming power of the first Escaron shown in a battle that lasted over an hour aroused their instincts.
“It’s good to be successful, but isn’t our life meaningful only when we live there?”
Even if you are called a hero who eliminated a threat to your country, what good is it if you die and are buried in a graveyard?
In response to tanker Cha Mu-yeol’s opinion, a man who was assisting him next to spoke.
“Fuck… There were only ten Escaron… I can’t believe this much damage was done. If this goes on, we’ll have to eat North Korea or something.”
Jo Won-jae, an S-class hunter and wind wizard.
He was one of the most versatile wind wizards.
The words he uttered were far from the original purpose of the punitive force, but no one refuted or refuted his words.
That’s how much serious damage the hunters of Team 1 suffered, and what drove them into a corner was that huge Ent, crying as it watched its burning mother.
About an hour ago.
The only ones guarding the Devouring Creeper were ten Escaron.
There wasn’t a single creeper guard. It was clean, as if they had removed all the things that were in the way.
The punitive force had a numerical advantage, and Pomegranate’s infiltration was successful as planned, so morale was high.
However, there is only one person who broke all conditions and changed the wind of the battlefield.
Now we are turning our backs on the hunters.
A monster that showed such overwhelming performance that no one could even think of attacking it.
Several people have already been harmed by it, and even two S-class hunters died after being swallowed whole by it.
‘The First Escaron’.
Surprisingly, this guy was a great monster who rose to the rank of transcendent.
Although it was the lowest number of cases, it was a possibility that no one could rule out.
Moreover, unlike the hunters who went through the first wave and became transcendents, he was not restricted by the system.
Terrible physicality, well over ten meters.
The outer shell, which was as smooth as well-refined steel, was reminiscent of a ‘celestial shield’ that would not break no matter how hard it was beaten.
In addition, the attack that struck with hundreds of stems did not allow a blind spot, and the same was true in defense.
The attack power was also terrible, so it was difficult to defend 100% with any quality equipment and artifacts.
In fact, since the battle began, the only ones who inflicted meaningful damage on him were Kang Yeon-soo of the White Knight Guild, Hyun Il-hwan of the Ilseom Guild, and Jo Won-jae, who wielded the wind attribute, which was said to have the best cutting power among magical attributes.
“Mr. Ilhwan. That technique you used earlier. Can you do it one more time?”
“I can do it, but I don’t know if Yeonsu can do it.”
Kang Yeon-soo of the White Knight Guild and Hyun Il-hwan of the Ilseom Guild, who are of the same age and are said to be the current generation of Korean awakeners.
The two had met several times over the years, and had memorized all information about each other, so there was no problem in getting together.
The fact that they were able to take more than an hour to fight against that monster whose strength had crossed the line was possible because the chemistry between the two was fantastic.
Of course, the support of Choi Kang-han and other hunters was a great help, but now even that has become undesirable.
Kang Yeon-soo looked at Hyun Il-hwan’s sleek profile as he entered [Shin Su-hwa], Which might be his last
‘Hyun Il-hwan… Is a man who holds justice in his heart, but for some reason, I was reluctant. Is it time to put those doubts aside…’
Kang Yeon-soo had a small question about him, who had recently been at odds with Yeon-hee and her group.
Hyeon Il-hwan said that he was just helping his father and decided that this place was more urgent, so he joined in a hurry. Because she couldn’t believe it straight away.
However, since we were together in this situation where we were driven to death, even though we were enemies, we had no choice but to become psychologically close.
Soon, all useless thoughts dispersed, and before they knew it, the two entered their respective ‘rooms’ and began to raise their mental power to its peak.
Other hunters were also squeezing out all their magical power to avoid being caught in the clutches of the great fate called ‘death’.
Behind them were healers healing the hunters.
“Cough— keuhuhuhhh!”
“Damn it! It’s hard to find properly formed organs!”
Koo Sang-min, an S-class healer who is demonstrating healing skills, was one of them.
Although his healer unit was doing its best, there were too many injuries.
The number of deaths has already exceeded five.
If you think about how much an S-class hunter is worth, it was a huge loss for the country.
Even ‘Choi Kang Han’, who served as the commander of the punitive force, suffered serious internal injuries to his head and was still unable to come to his senses. He had already surpassed the worst situation he had imagined.
Seeing Choi Kang-han, who had lost his mind, and Hunter, whose lower body was violently exploded and causing shock, Jo Won-jae thought something was wrong and began to stumble again.
“No matter what, it’s not like this… Even if we’re monsters that have risen to the rank of transcendents, no matter how different our weight classes are, it doesn’t make sense for us to be pushed back like this with all our might.”
Despite deploying 30% of Korea’s S-class hunters and even receiving help from the transcendental ‘Thundercloud’ and the ‘Unknown Transcendent’, they suffered enormous damage.
Of course, their goal was to support team 2, but I wondered if this was still possible.
The good news is that with the help of ‘Thundercloud’, the attack of the pyromancer unit led by ‘Pomegranate’ was successful.
If it were not for the amazing ability of ‘Thundercloud’, the power of the first Escaron would have been much stronger than it is now, and it would not have been possible to tie it down with the ‘mysterious barrier technique’.
“We can analyze why we are being pushed back later. What are we going to do now? We are stuck.”
Team 2, who thought they had to take the biggest risk, used all their capabilities and flew straight to Korea through the ‘mysterious passage’.
The hunters of Team 1, who were tying up Escaron’s feet, were trapped in a space surrounded by stems along with the two Escarons due to an unknown force activated by the Devouring Creeper.
Those two animals were number 1 and number 5 Escaron.
The most powerful guy and the monster with the closest appearance to a human.
Fortunately, two S-class barrier magicians were with them, so they trapped the two monsters in another barrier. It was really just a temporary measure.
If the two are released from there, they will have to fight to the death in this space where the main body is trapped until one of them dies.
Creepy─
Koo Sang-min looked at the back of No. 1 Escaron indifferently and got goosebumps for a moment.
“How long can you last?”
He urgently asked the two top barrier magicians, and the answer came back in just 3 minutes.
“3 minutes…”
It was as if I had received a revelation that that was all you had left to live.
On the other hand, Kang Yeon-soo and Hyun Il-hwan smiled brightly after hearing the answer.
“Hehe—not bad. It’s enough time to prepare for one shot.
“That’s definitely true. Gather as much strength as you can, and go in at the same time when that barrier is naturally released.”
Unlike other hunters who were frightened by the power of the first Escaron, Kang Yeon-soo and Hyun Il-hwan. The two were confident that they would be able to defeat the terrible monster trapped in the barrier.
“It’s a fight you can’t lose.”
“Of course. I can’t show my ugly side to the person who supports me.”
Anyway, they are also people who have taken a step into the ranks of transcendents.
There was no need to be afraid even though it was a monster that showed a huge gap in physical abilities. I’ve already had that experience several times.
“Kwaooooo───!!!”
Number 1 Escaron, who had been going crazy inside the barrier for a long time, screaming in incomprehensible words, despaired as he watched the unquenchable flame gnawing away at his mother. She was angry again.
[aa… Child… You have to live…]
Her supreme heart, which she only thinks of herself until the end, is transmitted through an intangible string and reaches her first child.
The main body was not dead yet, but its vitality would soon fade.
“Keuuu… I will tear it all apart. No, I will make you cry and regret for the rest of your life, asking me to kill you.”
The fifth Escaron, who was looking at the first Escaron in anger, responded calmly.
(It was my mother’s request her … She also told me to keep the humans alive. And those humans are qualitatively different from the humans we dealt with. Haven’t you experienced it yourself? Be cool.)
“······.”
