◈ Genius Shin-Gung who became a one-man army (55)

Boom-!

Isaac, who was running ahead, stopped walking as a tremendous roar erupted that seemed to shake the mountain.

That’s because the direction where the sound was just heard is where Lian went.

“Lord Lian?”

At that moment, someone came quickly from behind, riding a horse, toward Isaac.

It was Derek, who was a platoon leader in the former Eagle Company.

“Isaac, go to where Lian is right now. We will guard this place.”

“Are you okay?”

“Rather, there are far more troops here. They won’t be able to attack rashly. However, if there are any bad guys on Lian’s side who can handle Aura, the situation could become dangerous.”

It’s just as he said.

Of course, it is unlikely that a warrior capable of handling Aura will come out of Forhen Valley.

For them, the Porchen Valley is a place of life.

However, we must always move forward with the understanding that war is a ‘variable’.

If there is a fierce warrior who can handle Aura in a place where only a few people are present, not only the guards but even Lian who went to rescue the guards will not be able to survive.

Isaac nodded.

“Then please.”

“Hurry up, I’d like to go instead, but I don’t know much about the terrain here……”

“Don’t worry. I’ll see you again then.”

After saying that, Isaac immediately started walking back the way he had come with his troops. And then, he flinched.

I don’t have the talent to create a path where there isn’t one, like Lian usually does.

But now something… … .

‘It’s ominous.’

What is this feeling?

I still can’t forget the loud explosion-like noise from earlier.

Unless by some chance an artifact or some magical tool was used, there is only one thing that could make such an explosion possible.

I’m talking about the explosive power of the weapon that was just imbued with Aura.

Is that why?

“Those who fall behind, do not force yourself to follow. If a battle breaks out, you will not be able to fight properly.”

The eyes of the soldiers behind him turned sharp as Isaac spoke in a solemn voice.

Because I know what Isaac is thinking right now.

Brant said.

“Then can I guide you?”

Brant is as agile as Lian and is adept at navigating the terrain.

In this situation, the only one who can lead the way is Brandt.

Isaac nodded.

“Please.”

“Then I will find the fastest way.”

Pavat!

With those words, Brandt started running down the pathless mountain path.

And after that,

“It follows.”

Isaac and the Arrowhead troops began to run towards Lian.

* * *

The moment I faced him, it felt like I was standing in front of a huge beast.

Gulp.

‘… … That guy.’

Lian could recognize it at a glance.

The fact that he is the leader of the tribe that rules over the Forhen Valley.

If I were to judge by feeling alone, it felt similar to the great warrior Galel I met in Saleron.

Gulp.

The pressure of feeling like you could be caught any moment, even though the distance was quite far.

But the standoff didn’t last long.

“SHA WKQDK.”

“Kuaaaaaaah-!”

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo!

The moment the guy muttered something, dozens of the thugs behind him started running.

The roughness of the road was not a great obstacle for them.

To begin with, their homeland is similar to this kind of rough terrain.

“Gab! Turn left and meet at point 4! The rest of you, move right and run to point 4 without looking back!”

“yes!”

“What about the deputy commander?”

Unlike Gabe, who was moving with five other men while answering quickly, Gerard looked at Lian and asked.

As he was told to run away, Lian aimed his bow at the rushing bandits.

At that, Lian’s eyes flashed like frost.

“go-!”

At that shout, Gerard flinched and took a step back. But soon he started running in the direction Lian had indicated, along with the other five squad members.

‘If it’s 4 points, it’s downhill from here.’

This means that you can escape more efficiently from strong enemies on uphill climbs.

But if there is a problem… … .

Shh.

Altomus was smiling at himself as if he had already figured it out.

Lian drew without hesitation, placing three arrows on the bow.

Shh …

Pufferpuck-!

In a situation where the distance was closing in, this level of obstacle was no obstacle to Lian.

The moment Lian’s three arrows hit the bodies of the three running warriors,

“I’m sorry, but I have no intention of getting caught, no one.”

Lian took something round from her waistband and threw it on the floor.

pop-!

The moment the ball fell to the ground and exploded, a pungent smoke rose up and began to spread quickly on the wind.

Pavat!

“ANJDI! ANJ!”

“DKSQHL! DJELSI-!”

The cries of the bewildered warriors could be heard as white smoke enveloped their surroundings in an instant.

I was running forward blindly, piercing through the smoke,

“Ugh-!”

“SNSL-! SNDNDDKVM-!”

Soon he began to fall to the floor in pain.

The identity of the fog was a powdered version of dried mandarin grass and an artificial fog used by alchemists.

When using artificial fog, it does not disappear like normal smoke even when blown away by the wind, but rather maintains a hazy view for a while as if it were foggy.

There, they use the dried and ground grass of the mandala to inflict pain on the guys.

It will probably feel like you’ve had pepper thrown in your eyes.

Pavabat-!

But we can’t tie up the feet of the evildoers with things like this for long.

This is truly just a stopgap measure.

‘Get out as far as possible and join the main force.’

Because I honestly never expected that the enemy’s commander would be here.

‘You’re risking your life.’

If I had known, I would have handed over the supplies and just attacked the Porchen Valley.

This was because the power of the enemy commander was threatening.

Hit the button!

Lian gritted her teeth and started running away.

The senses activated by Rikal’s ring were directed solely at Altomus.

Gulp.

And the moment the guy moved, Lian immediately turned around and started protesting again.

Because the moment the guy jumps, the distance becomes incredibly close.

‘You monster… …!’

Certainly, it is difficult to predict the physical abilities of those who handle auras.

Depending on how well you utilize it, you could literally be called a superhuman.

No matter how high you rate him, he’s only intermediate level.

The problem is that even a mid-level Auror user is almost at a disaster level for Lian right now.

“Is the escape over?”

“……!”

The guy who had closed the distance spoke to Lian.

Even though we were still quite a distance away, I could hear his voice clearly, as if he was speaking right next to me.

But that wasn’t the only thing that surprised Lian.

Because the guy spoke perfect continental Chinese.

Lian said, glancing at the guy.

“Don’t split me up. Those filthy bastards who were acting so carefree are now buried in the ground.”

“Looking at the way his muttering voice just dissipates in the wind, he must be a youngling who can’t even control his Auror. I had some expectations since he’s a forest monster.”

Unlike Altomus, who spoke with magical power, Lian’s voice did not reach Altomus.

It can’t be helped.

The distance between them was still at least 20 meters. But even that was quickly shortened.

thud!

Altomus kicked the ground again and jumped up in a big leap.

Then the guy’s heavy body jumped up like a spring. And the moment he jumped up, I could see Lian.

What I’m saying is that you can’t just run away anymore.

‘I have to take a gamble.’

The only good thing is that the opponent doesn’t know that he can use magic power.

That means there may be a chance, however slim, to create a chance.

Chorus!

Lian, who had been running, immediately slid to a stop on the ground, lowered her posture, and pulled out the arrow.

Altomus, who closed the distance of more than 10 meters with one jump.

Given the distance between you and the guy, you only get one chance to shoot.

That extreme-!

Lian put three arrows on the bow and pulled the bow with all his might.

Walter’s bow showed off its elasticity by bending so much that it seemed like it would break.

Her hands were shaking, but Lian looked at Altomus.

And Altomus, who was rushing towards Lian, also held a sword covered in blood.

Shh.

The guy’s face was full of confidence.

His expression was filled with the confidence that he could not be defeated at close range by a fighter who could not use his aura.

‘once.’

You just have to block his arrow once.

No, even if you can’t stop it, it’s over as long as you don’t give up your vital point.

Altomus has done all the calculations.

And he concentrated his aura on his legs and waited for the guy to attack.

The moment you strike the guy’s arrow, it explodes with an aura, closing the distance in an instant. Then, cut him down.

If that happens, the whole situation is over.

Kick!

Lian slightly twisted the bow that held the arrow.

Pot-!

Shaeeeeeeeeek-!

Three arrows left Lian’s hand and flew towards Altomus at incredible speed.

For a moment, Altomus’s eyes shook greatly.

“Ugh-!”

It was because the distance was so close, but also because the guy’s arrow was faster than I thought.

What kind of bow did you use?

Can an arrow fly this fast?

Altomus, whose mind suddenly turned blank, swung his sword while drawing in all his auras.

Kwakwakwakwakwang-!

The sword swung upward from below, scraping the floor and creating a weak shield.

The wind pressure from Altomus’ swinging sword, along with the rising gravel and dirt, blocked Lian’s arrow. But, bang-!

He quickly turned his head, but an arrow flew past Altomus, tearing from the right side of his lip to his cheek.

Altomus’ expression distorted ominously at Lian’s attack, which was more threatening than expected.

“How dare you, a bastard of the kingdom aaaaaaaaaaaaa-!”

Kururururung!

With his shout, a tremendous momentum exploded out.

The air around them seemed to tremble at the release of the aura.

Altomus glared at where Lian had been, ready to strike him down in one blow.

“……!”

does not exist.

Did you run away in that short time?

‘That can’t be true.’

It’s a physically impossible time.

Altomus looked around quickly. At that moment,

Creepy-!

Altomus quickly turned around and raised his sword as goosebumps ran down his spine from head to toe.

This was because Lian, who had moved behind him, rushed at him with a dagger in hand.

‘You didn’t run away!’

Are you saying that he ran towards me right after I shot the arrow?

Altomus bit his lip at the unexpected sudden action.

“RKAG DNTMQ QHSMSRK-! (How dare you make fun of me-!)”

Altomus shouted and swung his sword at Lian.

As threatening as the guy’s judgment was, his own sword was still faster.

Altomus’ sword flashed a red aura, emitting an aura of death.

And at that moment when his sword cuts Lian’s body in half, Pit-!

Boohoo!

“……!”

As Lian, who had been in front of his eyes, disappeared, Altomus’ sword cut through the air.

Altomus’ mind seemed to go blank for a moment as he was in a crazy situation that disappeared like magic. And,

“Euaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!”

With a roar from above, Lian lunged at Altomus and thrust her dagger between his neck and shoulder.

Phew!

But the moment the sword went in, Altomus quickly turned around and swung his arm at Lian.

Phew-!

“Crack-!”

It hit the arm, but it was an attack from an auror user.

It looks like at least three or four ribs were broken in the attack a little while ago.

Lian fell to the floor and frowned.

‘shit……!’

Ziaph’s Bracelet, no, I think it should be renamed Rikal’s Bracelet now.

It was good that he was able to use Rikal’s bracelet to dodge Altomus’ attacks and counterattack by teleporting briefly.

The problem is that it wasn’t finished perfectly.

“Ugh……!”

The moment I tried to get up, my breathing became suffocating and excruciating pain engulfed my entire body.

“DLFJ… WNRUFSHAL…!”

Altomus staggered, pulling the dagger from the side of his neck.

If the sword had gone in just a little deeper or cut to the side, he would have died instantly.

Altomus’ bloodshot eyes were filled with raw murderous intent.

Lian felt as if her whole body was frozen for a moment at the momentum of the Auror user.

Even when my body is intact, it is impossible to block his attacks, but when I am injured like this… … .

“Cough!”

Lian, who was getting up from her seat, vomited blood and collapsed on the floor.

It looks like the broken rib may have punctured an organ or caused other problems.

As Lian collapsed to the floor, Altomus pressed the wound with his left hand to stop the bleeding and picked up the sword that had fallen to the floor.

“You… Were you able to use magic? I don’t know what kind of magic you used, but it didn’t happen twice.”

Altomus took up his sword.

“Die, you forest monster.”

And the moment his sword fell on Lian’s head,

“Lian Niiiiiiiiim-!”

Isaac, a small man, was running at incredible speed with a scream that sounded like a tearing scream.
