Regression Is Too Much - Regression Is Too Muchchapter 271
271 – Proved by the Regressor (11)
Choi Ji-won and three players were waiting outside the cave. They were enjoying the morning sunlight.
“… “Did you really succeed?”
“Wow… “
I couldn’t help but be amazed when I saw the warlock trudging forward, relying on his cane. Half of it was my surprise because I didn’t know I would succeed, and half of it was my surprise when I saw the strange-looking appearance of the warlock.
“Then… Bingryong? Are you going to catch it?”
“But the clear condition is to kill the warlock… “
“What do we do… “
“Shut up. “I will die gracefully.”
“… “
As the warlock grew irritated, the French woman’s mouth fell shut.
“I’ve wanted to join the tower my whole life. “I never thought I would come in like this.”
The warlock let out a breath that we couldn’t tell whether it was a sigh or a laugh, looked at us for a moment, and then walked off somewhere. It seemed like a signal to follow.
“What are you doing!”
The captain follows him. The guy snorted his breath and started walking towards the warlock. Players who exchange glances with each other also follow the leader.
“I’m going up.”
The warlock’s cave is located about halfway up the mountain. In other words, going up from here means going to the top of the mountain.
“… “What wouldn’t be at the top?”
Of course, I had already seen the shape of the mountain on the way. Just… It’s an ordinary mountain. This means that there was no sight of the figure so terrifying that it was called ‘Bingryong’.
Or maybe it is? There are also cases where dragons exist in human form. Where is that little human hidden there? That makes sense.
“Oh, it stopped.”
However, the warlock did not walk for long and stopped. It was not far from the warlock’s cave.
“Can you see it?”
A warlock pointing to the top of the mountain.
“… “What is it?”
“Look closely.”
“I can’t see it! “Stupid guy!”
“… “
At the captain’s words, the warlock narrows his wrinkled eyes and looks up at the summit again.
“… “I can’t see it very well.”
The warlock waved his staff, and a black-red flame flew towards the summit.
-Quaang!
With a small explosion, the ice that covered the top of the mountain poured towards the other side.
“… “
“… “
And at the same time, everyone’s breathing stopped. As if they had made a promise, their eyes were fixed on one place. Even though the eyes stopped blinking and slowly became bloodshot, no one made a sound.
That… It was a dragon. Yeah, there was no other way to explain it.
Coldly blue scales. Even bigger teeth. Two huge horns. Split lenses, characteristic of reptiles.
In fact, before the existence of the dragon itself returned, I had seen it appear in New York. So, I didn’t think, ‘Wow, I’m seeing a dragon in real life.’
No, it was actually the opposite. That beautiful dragon… It felt horribly unrealistic. I couldn’t believe that such a huge being was alive and breathing, and I couldn’t believe that it was now trapped in ice and moving its eyes.
“Huh?”
Someone made a sound out of breath. The dragon’s eyes were clearly looking at us. An incomprehensible pressure weighs down the air. The level is different. That expression would be appropriate.
I focused my soul to resist. This is because power beyond ordinary perception is often related to the soul.
“… What. “That is.”
It was only after I focused on my own soul that I became aware of it. How noble and great that being is. Although it is now said to have fallen, it was originally at the top.
-Forgot.
Bingryong’s eyes blink. At that moment, the snow covering the dragon’s body fell down and rained down in all directions like an avalanche.
“Inhale!”
“Stop it!”
Players are no longer at a level where they can be swayed by eyes like that. The rocks and pieces of wood mixed in between were a bit harsh, but I was able to withstand it as I swung the weapon while emitting magical energy.
“Oh my!”
The captain is embarrassed. The direction you are facing is the direction where the village was located. The real problem is this. If things continue like this, the village will be covered in snow.
-Duung.
At the same time, the staff struck the floor, and a huge red grip burned some of the eyes. It happened to be in the direction where the village was located.
“… “
“… “
Hypocrisy… I wanted to say that, but. That is not the time or the time. We looked at Bingryong again. The guy had completely removed his eyes and exposed himself to the world.
-Wow!
Bingryong spreads his wings wide. The snow particles sparkling in the sky are very beautiful. The spread wings cover half of the sun.
“That… “It’s sealed?”
Someone muttered. Although they may not say it out loud, everyone probably has the same thoughts. That thing is sealed?
-Quung.
Just by Bingryong gathering himself, the ground shakes. The guy didn’t take any further action. It folds its wings again and just looks at us, crouching at the top of the mountain.
But just for that alone.
“… Can you win?”
Can you win… A question came to mind.
Only then do you realize it. This warlock is weak even in his own world. It is an axis whose power is limited because it cannot enter the tower.
Of course, there are many, many people stronger than the warlock. And the fact that such powerful people chose to be sealed. There is a good reason for that.
“That dragon was originally called the guardian dragon.”
A dark wizard who speaks calmly.
“Wise, strong, quiet. “It was a dragon suited to the position of quietly protecting it.”
“Why did you seal someone like that… “
“This guy was originally a gold dragon. “I don’t know, but gold dragons originally used holy magic.”
“But?”
“I grabbed something wrong and it turned blue.”
“… “
From noble mtl dot com
“That guy is not in a normal state either. He is slowly dying, crushed by his own strength. “I sealed it because humans die faster than this guy dies.”
The warlock added, “That also has no meaning anymore.
-Saaagh.
Around that time, white particles spewing out from Bingryong’s body reached us.
“Uhm… “
The grains contained cold energy, and players had to generate magical power to overcome the cold. The captain… It seems like I’m holding on with my mental strength.
This coldness is similar to my ability, but it is a bone-chilling coldness. There was some difference between me and Bingryong. If my coldness is a solid feeling that seems to stop everything, Bingryong’s is a sharp coldness that feels like being randomly stabbed with a spear.
“Just a moment.”
While I was gathering my thoughts. Choi Ji-won took a step forward.
“Hmm… “
She moves forward, step by step, with her sword outstretched. Come to think of it, Choi Ji-won had a trait that allowed her to gauge the strength of her opponent.
“It’s not easy.”
Choi Ji-won speaks carefully.
“The closer we get, the stronger the energy becomes. Probably by the time we got right next to it… I think it would be difficult to even fight properly.”
“Is it like my chill?”
“Maybe. Instead, it feels more aggressive.”
The power of ‘coldness’ is good in these cases. Just getting close will greatly limit your combat power.
Of course, it would be better since I have cold resistance… This is not an opponent I can defeat alone.
I slowly turn my head and look at the three players. Judging from his pale face, it didn’t seem like he would be of much help.
The players are like this, but let’s add a captain who is more like an ordinary person… Warlock. Me. And is Choi Ji-won the power that can be used?
“Conversation… Solve it with.”
“If it were possible, I would have done it already. Do you think the people of our world are idiots? “That guy has already lost his intelligence.”
“… “
The Italian man begins to speak, but then he falls silent. That is correct. If conversation were possible, it would have already been resolved through conversation. It looks like your world is about to be destroyed, so why not even try that hard?
“I can’t use magical power because of the seal. Instead, it ‘possesses’ magical power. “I can’t help it when it comes out naturally like that.”
“What else?”
“That guy’s heart is currently being tightened by the sealing demon. Bingryong cannot leave that mountain.”
“Then if you hit it from far… ” “
“Can you break through those scales? “It’s the scale of a dragon.”
“Hmm.”
The advantage we have is that we have no intelligence. Animals without intelligence can be ‘hunted’. Even if this side comes up with a plan, there is a high chance that it will be fooled.
On the other hand, speaking of disadvantages… That’s a dragon. Dragon. Even if it was sealed, the basic specifications would not be comparable.
“Can’t we just break the seal! “What can you say?”
The captain scolding me from the side. The warlock shakes his head.
“Unless, by any chance, this is the tower. It doesn’t end when we die. There is also a possibility that the authors were crazy climbers who luckily entered the barrier.”
In the end, if I can’t catch Bingryong, I have no intention of breaking the barrier.
Just by looking at it, it doesn’t seem easy. Me and Choi Ji-won. And if the warlock gives his all, can he win? Iffy. I can’t guarantee.
“First… “There is one way that is more likely.”
But it is not completely impossible.
There was one method that came to mind.
