Regression Sword Apocalypse Reconquest - Chapter 68
Only Noblemtl
Episode 68
A sound that was probably telepathic, sent from a spaceship.
There was an intimidating majesty to that strange electronic voice.
‘I didn’t see any monsters until the end of the cave. This guy must be the boss here.’
Sehyuk swallowed hard.
‘I have to keep in mind that I’m going to fight this guy.’
It’s not a good sign.
The magical power of a spaceship monster that stabs your entire body.
The majestic power in the voice.
Because all the signs point to the monster before our eyes being some divine being that has overpowered humans.
And, as expected, things take a dangerous turn.
[You little creatures who have kept my records.]
[I am a great being who will gather you.]
[Follow my will.]
When everyone falls down.
Sehyuk bit his tongue lightly.
To come to my senses.
‘It feels like something is messing with your head. It’s not a strong feeling, but there’s some manipulation that makes you think of that guy as an absolute being.’
I can feel it in that guy’s voice.
The magic of fear and brainwashing.
Humans are more advanced creatures than we think.
To manipulate human emotions on such a large scale.
As expected, it is a dangerous and huge entity.
While Sehyuk was thinking about what to do next.
Things change.
[hmm?]
Sehyuk, who is not stricken by fear.
At that sight, the tentacles froze in confusion.
When he saw that sight, an idea suddenly popped into Sehyuk’s head.
‘Wouldn’t it be better to push this harder?’
Just by looking at him, you can tell he’s not very good at handling these kinds of unexpected situations.
In that case, it feels like I might be able to push through with momentum and fool them.
‘And by the way, it really annoys me that they try to manipulate my psychology.’
The decision has been made.
“Where on earth does this kid get the courage to try to control people?”
He expresses his anger by distorting his face, half with sincerity and half with acting.
And then, before I could react, he approached me.
Crunch!
After slicing off one of its giant tentacles, it falls back.
[Huh, huh?]
A spaceship staring blankly, holding its own severed tentacle.
[Ugh, euaaaah!]
Then a scream erupts.
[Hey, you! I’ll kill you! Die!]
A tentacle that looks slightly angry.
The bastard showed even more incredible strength.
Magical power surges from the two tentacles, and the magic power gathers.
The gathered magical power slowly formed into a holographic human figure.
Soon, the tentacle monster placed a person with the exact same appearance as the fluffy one on the crystal floor.
Ability to replicate.
Seeing that sight, everyone around them just stared at them with frozen faces.
A face that feels unpleasant.
However, he appears to be unable to do anything due to the powerful magical power emitted by the tentacle monster inside the spaceship.
I just froze, feeling a mixture of fear and awe.
Of course, Sehyuk’s heart was as calm as a lake.
Sehyuk realized something as he watched that scene.
‘I see. So this is the one who tried to steal the flesh of the river predator.’
Now, only one question remains about the ‘theft incident’.
‘Then why did this guy try to steal the flesh of a river predator?’
Maybe we’ll find out when we see.
It’s also information that can be used.
‘Ha. But the ability to clone? That’s really tricky.’
A clone that perfectly imitated Kim Seok-kyung.
Of course, it is also threatening when used for confusing purposes, such as illusions.
The fighting power will also be the same.
‘If someone imitates me, we’re in big trouble.’
Several clones of Inspector Lee Se-hyeok on a giant spaceship using cloning and brainwashing.
There is absolutely no chance of winning here.
But that didn’t happen.
[Huh?]
Copies appearing one after another.
At that time, Cha Ye-seong, Little Dragon, and Se-hyeok were the only ones without copies.
The tentacles keep swinging their tentacles as if something is strange.
A tentacle that continues to gather magical power, as if trying to create a hologram.
However, Sehyuk’s clone does not appear, and the hologram continues to disperse into the air.
[What, what is this!]
Was it something that even the tentacles didn’t know about?
For a moment the tentacles do not move.
And then the tentacles eventually started behaving differently.
[I see. Even among the smallest creatures, you are a being of quite a high rank.]
thud!
The tentacle takes something out from inside its spaceship and places it on the ground.
A mimic with a fluffy face brought them something.
[Come with me.]
[I will allow you to enjoy great grace all at once!]
A completely different attitude than before.
The guy began to seduce Sehyuk with slightly cowardly words.
But, despite his dirty deeds, the thing he brought was real.
[When you see this, you too will be able to learn about the hidden truth of the world.]
Sehyuk was slightly surprised when he saw the object.
A holographic plate similar to the one we saw earlier.
“If I decipher all these plates, I can obtain forbidden knowledge and the truth about destruction?”
The content contained within was quite extraordinary.
[Yes. I was threatened with my life by those guys as I approached that knowledge, and I had no choice but to run away like this.]
The most secret and greatest knowledge this spaceship possesses.
Because it was a story that touched on the truth of the world.
Intuition tells me.
This story is likely to have a lot to do with what Sehyuk is going through right now.
[Unfortunately, some of them were lost when I fell here.]
[But if you find them all, you too can gain that knowledge.]
[I will help you.]
And then, the tentacles extended a few more items in front of Sehyuk.
Objects that emit powerful magical power at first glance.
And then, the bastard’s words were filled with magic again.
‘There is a magic that is so subtle and subtle that it is almost imperceptible, that it makes you think favorably of him and trust him.’
The power of fascination.
But this time, Sehyuk persevered.
Because Sehyuk can be proud that he is unrivaled by anyone in terms of mental strength.
Besides, Sehyuk noticed right away.
‘This kid has an ulterior motive. His words are like someone who is trying to take advantage of others.’
When we first met, he acted strong and told me to worship him.
A tentacle monster that tries to persuade others because their abilities don’t work.
I’ve been through a lot.
Because it was a pattern that beginner scammers often used.
It was so shoddy.
‘I guess you’ve never deceived anyone with words because you rely on your abilities.’
Such flimsy persuasion will never work on Sehyuk.
‘It seems like he’s not strong enough for me, so he’s going to use me and then beat me up.’
Sehyuk smiled inwardly, mocking the bastard.
‘Should I just let you have it for a moment?’
A monster with a lot of possessions.
However, psychological warfare itself is a complete sham.
In a word, he’s a sucker.
‘Let me take a bite.’
“Anyway, our group came to free you.”
[Is that true!]
An alien tentacle monster that can’t even hide its emotions and is happy.
“But I don’t know how to remove this barrier. What should I do?”
Se-hyuk glances at the monster as he says that.
At those words, the monster moves its tentacles hurriedly.
[Have you ever caught a giant monster?]
A giant monster shows a hologram.
The key parts that the giant monsters have that can help us escape this place.
[Those giant monsters are entities that grew by absorbing fragments of the dimensional cutter that contained my power.]
[The magic barrier here can be removed by combining all of these key fragments.]
‘Thank you for the information.’
A monster that gives out a lot of shit every time you say a word.
It seemed that even a transcendent being couldn’t help but feel scared.
‘Then, would you like me to suck some more?’
“Oh, by the way”
[What’s the problem?]
“We’re a little weak to catch that monster. It’s already broken.”
In fact, before Sehyuk arrived, the group was struggling to catch the monster.
I didn’t lie.
The tentacles stopped talking again, fidgeting.
[Okay. Then I will show mercy.]
After much deliberation.
The tentacles once again take something out of the spaceship and put it down.
The clones brought the item to Sehyuk and handed it over.
“What is this?”
One ray gun and one thing that looks like a scanner.
And, as soon as Sehyuk saw those two objects, he felt something was wrong.
Especially ray guns.
As soon as I held the gun, I felt a tremendous wave of magical power.
Even if it’s not good, it’s legendary.
‘You’re really putting something like this out there? You really are an amazing being.’
Also, the item next to the ray gun was really useful.
[I gave you one of my skills so you humans wouldn’t know what it was.]
[If you hold it up to an object, you can tell what it is.]
‘Wait a minute, that’s what I mean.’
Sehyuk picked up the scanner and checked the light gun next to him.
‘Can this scanner be used to assess equipment?’
Equipment appraisal.
Se-hyeok is currently judging what kind of object it is by reading the magical power felt inside it.
So it’s often impossible to know exactly what power an object is hiding.
Even so, Sehyuk has accumulated a lot of experience, so this is all he can do.
Because other people don’t have the ability to tell if something is strong or not.
In that situation, an object that clearly tells you the power of all things came into your hands.
It’s pretty good stuff.
And the rewards don’t end there.
‘crazy.’
The ray gun was an object of admiration.
[Prism Laser]
[Output 8 times the horsepower invested]
[Ignores some magic protection and attribute resistance]
[When magic power is charged above a certain level, ‘Annihilation Ray’ can be used]
[*Annihilation Ray: Fires a 1 meter radius plasma beam that ignores all defenses and destroys objects it touches.]
[*The destruction effect of the annihilation ray also applies to magic power.]
Then two images appear on the scanner.
One is a video of a rainbow laser beam shooting out from a prism laser destroying a spaceship that appears to be made of tentacles.
Could it be because it was an object possessed by a transcendent being?
It seemed to not only read information about the item, but also show how the weapon worked.
‘The speed of the rainbow laser is pretty fast, and the rate of fire isn’t bad either.’
If you have horsepower, it is a weapon with guaranteed firepower.
And then, Sehyuk let out a laugh after watching the next video.
‘I’m surprised many times today.’
Another video shows a beam of plasma shooting out from a prism laser beam, pulverizing a spaceship.
Sehyuk was speechless at the sight.
A legendary weapon is literally a weapon that can create ‘legendary achievements’.
This prism laser was indeed a legendary weapon capable of killing legendary beings.
Huge output.
Option to ignore some of the opponent’s defensive measures, such as magic shields or attribute resistance.
A finishing move that can almost kill any opponent at close range.
Even a special ability that can forcibly dismantle magic spells that require complex and precise calculations to be cast.
‘It’s a shame that Choi Sung-hyun’s magic power is so low. Still, you can raise it slowly.’
It’s a huge reward for just a little verbal abuse.
‘It might be worth asking Choi Sung-hyun to research this technology.’
If you understand even a small part of this gun, your ability to create magical firearms will advance to unimaginable levels.
It is a weapon that suits Choi Sung-hyun in many ways.
“Then, we will take our leave now.”
I guess I got what I wanted.
Sehyuk tried to leave quickly.
If I stay here, I don’t know what else he’ll do.
[for a moment.]
Unfortunately, it seems like he has that much wit.
[Leave some behind.]
It means taking hostages.
In the end, Sehyuk decided to take only the existing group and Boksulboksul, leaving the other group behind.
Anyway, I’ll just catch them all and come back.
The monsters in other regions had already calculated that Sehyuk and his party were enough.
“Have a safe trip. Take care of yourself!”
Kim Seok-kyung sees off Se-hyeok and his group.
“I think you can resolve this situation quickly.”
Boksulboksul, who barely managed to get up, looks at Sehyuk.
He was now looking at Sehyuk with eyes that showed complete trust.
Go back the way you came.
And then, Sehyuk quickly returned and defeated the monsters.
Now it’s time to deal with the spaceship and get its treasure.
‘A being that gives you legendary items.’
You never know what you’ll get if you catch it.
Must catch.
‘Not only things, but it seems like you know the secrets of the world.’
Because it definitely looks like there’s something there.
