Returned as a Transcendent Genius Summoner - Chapter 230
Only Noblemtl
Episode 230 – There is no time that passes without meaning.
Rubinos’ weapons swarmed in.
An entrance wide enough for three people to pass side by side.
The one who stood there proudly was Lucas, a knight radiating a golden aura.
Each individual Rubinos entity can easily be dealt with by an R-rank summoner.
“Wow, there are really a lot of numbers?”
“Don’t let your guard down and conserve your stamina. You will fight while holding on to your opponents with wheeled combat.”
“yes-!”
The problem is numbers.
The number of troops that had piled up like a tidal wave was as great as that of a tsunami.
However, this side’s force also had considerable personnel.
Waiting behind Lucas was Godric.
“If you have any difficulties, please let me know at any time.”
“Don’t worry. I can handle it.”
“If you overdo it, you will only cause trouble to the Master. So, you shouldn’t overdo it.”
Lucas nodded silently, swinging his sword.
Lucas tests the power of his newly acquired sword while reliably blocking the human assault of Rubinos’ troops.
These days, he was in the midst of a new worry.
I didn’t know that it was because my daily life was so peaceful and stagnant.
‘Even though I lost once… … Other than that, there was no turning point for new opportunities.’
I don’t know when it started, but I started feeling hazy.
Days where everything is vague and we just live from day to day.
Lucas felt that the last defeat was because of that.
Crunch-!
Lightly fending off the attacks of the Rubinos troops, Lucas was lost in thought.
His body had already reached a point where it moved like an unconditional reflex, and the considerable amount of mana allowed him to fight all day without getting tired.
Teeing-!
His thoughts grew deeper and deeper as the attack from Rubinos’ troops failed to penetrate his newly acquired armor.
Moreover, the performance of the armor Tyler made himself was truly top-notch.
‘When will I ever achieve what I set out to do?’
I knew all along that it would be a long and arduous journey.
But, it was only after suffering defeat that I finally realized it.
That he was too complacent right now.
The sense of urgency disappeared, and I realized that I had become someone who carries out the Master’s mission day by day.
It’s not that I don’t like this situation or feel aversion to it.
Whenever an emergency arises for the Master, he is worried that he will become useless if he becomes complacent about reality.
Feeling frustrated, he blasted the golden aura.
“Haaap-!”
[Dalgarum]
Kwakwakwakwa-!
A huge aura stretched out in the shape of a slash.
Truly incredible power.
The destructive power was so great that it created a large hole in the densely packed Rubinos troops.
Lucas measured the blow against the enemy’s level.
fall short of.
It was, for a long time, not enough.
‘shit…….’
His growing impatience made his sword even rougher.
A movement that is almost like venting one’s anger.
The knight who had been watching the scene from behind looked at Godric and asked.
“Shouldn’t I stop you? I think you’ll get tired quickly.”
“You must have been very distressed because of your last defeat. Let’s just wait and see for a bit.”
“hmm…….”
They knew it too.
It’s just something I tried hard not to say out loud.
A very painful defeat.
A battle that shocked countless summoners.
It was a desperate situation where the last opportunity that had been obtained with great difficulty was almost lost.
Godric also failed in his mission as a strong shield.
Even if he could only use half of his ocean-like mana, he would have been able to deal with it easily.
He was also impatient.
‘But, there is no such thing as meaningless time… … .’
He firmly believed.
That one day the Master will surely show you the way.
Kuuuung-!
How much time has passed like that?
There was a loud noise outside.
Something huge began to appear one by one in the air.
“That is… … ?”
“Isn’t it similar to the Master’s weapon?”
“I see.”
Things have changed.
One by one, weapons that look out of the ordinary are appearing, so it will be at a level that Lucas alone cannot handle.
Godric stepped forward with shield and club.
“I think I might need some help.”
“I won’t deny it. But I’d rather face those giants alone.”
“If you force it, I will take it out at any time.”
At Godric’s words, Lucas nodded slightly.
Their mission is to hold out without giving up the entrance until the Master finishes his work.
Lucas gripped his sword tightly.
A crisis will come someday, and he is a knight who must protect his master and comrades in any crisis.
I felt like my senses, which had been soaked in peace, were becoming sharper.
After all, it is said that people learn lessons through defeat.
“Being able to follow the Master is the greatest fortune of my soul.”
Maybe it was worth sacrificing the world to meet him.
Lucas held his sword firmly and took a stance.
His goal is the skill and strength to counter any attack.
It was the path of the counter craftsman.
Meanwhile, Hwanung continued his ascent into the facility.
The battle continued here as well, and some fairly familiar looking enemies appeared.
“It’s a dragonfly. As expected, it was an enemy related to Gina’s world.”
“Surely not, these guys were the ones who made the Yongjabyeong.”
In Gina’s world, dragonflies were a common sight.
They were indispensable soldiers in war, and they were always there to protect the magicians.
If you think about it, it’s really strange.
In her world, there were no people who fought in close combat like Lucas, Galion, Gil Taerang, or Narae.
I knew the reason because I heard it from my teacher.
Humans are born with mana, and the discipline that expresses it is magic.
That was all there was to it.
What if that’s what Rubinos had planned?
What if it was a perception they had built over centuries to take over the world?
Gina shivered at the truth that was gradually being revealed.
“I need to look deeper.”
“The orcs are starting to come out now.”
“I will clear the way, my lord.”
Narae lifted the Yong-A Sword and cut down everything that stood in her way.
They had to go deeper and deeper into the facility to figure out how it worked.
‘Then it will be easier to exploit other facilities’ weaknesses as well.’
At that moment, a loud noise was heard outside.
Looks like something’s wrong with Lucas.
It was clear that he was regaining his composure, but was it to the extent of making such a sound?
“It looks like something happened outside. Let’s hurry.”
“yes-!”
The summoned creatures moved busily.
A mission where one side must hold out and the other side must break through.
It might be okay now, but the longer you delay, the more disadvantageous it will become.
We don’t know how many facilities are left, so we’ll have to move quickly.
‘I need to synthesize it right away and focus on SR grade.’
Now is the time for SR ratings to become the main focus, not R ratings.
Hwanung moved quickly and went deep into the facility.
Hwanung defeated the dragon and went upstairs.
Similar to the ruins I had discovered before, this was clearly a place for experimentation and research.
Nergo and Jina examined the shrunken thing and figured out its structure.
“It looks like they’re doing some kind of work here… … .”
[That’s right. So you can control your body at will? That’s fascinating.]
On the other hand, Hwanung stuck out his tongue when he saw Rubinos’ equipment.
I’ve only seen this kind of equipment in movies, but it was amazing to see it with my own eyes.
What I was most worried about was the leakage of this technology.
What if we started researching on Earth with this technology?
I don’t know, but there may be cases of abuse.
Especially if the powerless production world harbors resentment and mass-produces these things, it seems like it could cause a pretty big problem.
The bodies of orcs were lying around, decomposed, like test subjects soaked in formaldehyde solution.
“It looks like the primary work is done here.”
“This is Seiya’s technique.”
“hmm?”
At that moment, Lucy, who was looking around, said while looking at the test subject.
Eight pairs of small wings flapped.
He spoke, holding up a long spear of light.
“The decomposition and reconstruction of the body. The technique of angels to plant stronger wings.”
“… … .”
“Angels’ wings are a sign of their strength. However, they are not created naturally, Master.”
“then…….”
“By putting new power into the wings, creating a new body, and transferring the soul. That’s… … how the angels became stronger.”
What does this mean?
Suddenly, Hwanung remembered what happened on Mt. Baekdu.
Clearly, the angel and Rubinos had been working together to accomplish the task.
Killing the Guardian was also the work of an angel.
I thought about Ravi’s words too.
Ha, somehow it feels like the puzzle pieces are falling into place one by one.
Hwanung asked just in case.
“Then, is that why you started the [rebellion]?”
Lucy nodded heavily.
“Yes.”
“That’s what it was.”
“So, what should I do now?”
Passing by, he asked.
Hwanung spoke firmly.
There’s only one thing we can do, right?
“You’re just going to destroy everything. You said that attacks from outside didn’t work?”
“huh.”
“Then, there must be a core supporting this facility. If we deal with it, the defenses will either go down or the building will collapse.”
“Let’s hurry. Lucas and Godric are struggling.”
Jina said, and Na-rae asked with concern.
“My lord, shall I assist you below?”
“hmm…….”
Hwanung checked Lucas’ feelings.
It was still burning fiercely, so it should be okay.
Besides, there are Godric and others left behind.
‘I haven’t taken out the spirit yet, so I guess that means there’s some time left.’
“It’s okay. We don’t know what’s ahead, so let’s focus on that.”
“All right.”
Everyone walked quickly.
Now, machine-implanted orcs are starting to appear.
Hwanung did not deal with them one by one, but quickly headed upstairs.
The place we finally arrived at was a large pupil.
No, it was closer to the warehouse.
There he found something passing by and clenched his fist.
“Magic weapon… … .”
Titan and Goliath.
Because there were so many magical siege weapons piled up that I thought were the result of brilliant magical engineering.
It meant that her civilization was being thoroughly manipulated.
At that moment of destruction, so that nothing can be done.
