The Necromancer in The Novel Picks up Bones - Chapter 145
Only Noblemtl
Episode 145
The magic circle emits light.
As the magic stone began to activate, a huge amount of magical power began to float through the air. Namgung Yeon sensed Gaiad’s presence and casted a spell.
A huge amount of magical power seeped into the ground.
and.
– Kwarrrrrr!
The ground was turned upside down.
Literally. The magic that had seeped deep into the ground literally tore the foundation apart.
As if a giant had torn the ground apart.
– what……!
A terrifying predator.
As the ground beneath the ground rose, black mud flowed out. The mud that had been hiding underground was forcibly dragged out as the ground turned over.
I could feel an ominous energy through the mud.
“Ugh!”
Namgung Yeon completed his magic by spitting out blood from his mouth. As if in response, the giant being standing behind him lowered its right arm.
The ground shook as the sky soared.
– Kwaaaaang!
– Guuuuuu… … !
And then it falls.
The ground below crashed down at an incredible speed, colliding directly with the snowfield. A loud noise like a meteorite hitting the ground was heard, and a strong shock wave spread out.
The ground shook as if an earthquake had occurred.
– Khaaaaak!
The predator’s form was in agony.
The reason was simple.
“There you are. Keuk!”
The land of the underworld, shattered by collision with the snowfield.
This was because the mud flowed down between them, revealing the hidden ‘body’ of the predator.
That was a big bug.
A horribly rotten worm that looked like a maggot. Black mud oozed endlessly from its body.
– Taaaaaang!
– Ugh… … !
That was the body of the predator.
As the terrified predator hastily stirred up mud, a single gunshot echoed across the snowfield.
The rushing bullet exploded.
The magic contained within is .
– Card dunk!
– Kwaaaaak!
Bone scythes were summoned and soon cut large chunks of the predator’s body.
The mud raised by the predator blocked the scythe, but it was too late.
– Ugh, ugh!
The scythe left a deep wound on the body.
A predator groaning in unexpected pain and spitting out black blood. It belatedly covered its body with mud and looked in the direction the magic bullet had come from.
High snowfields.
There was a man standing there.
“Nice shot.”
A man with a rifle on his shoulder.
The predator knew his face. It had to be. That man was the first man to stop a predator that had awakened in this world.
And it was also food that stimulated the predator’s hunger to the point of surpassing that spirit master.
– You, food… … !
“If possible, I’d like you to call me by my name. My name is Baek Sa-jun.”
– Ugh, s …
The predator’s form trembled with rage.
He calmly assessed the situation. The spirit master and the necromancer. Can he defeat them both? With his current self, he can definitely win.
but.
‘There is no need to take risks!’
A situation where the main body hidden underground is revealed.
In this situation, there is no reason to fight while taking risks. What matters most is life.
Predators with a strong survival instinct that goes beyond satisfying their hunger make quick decisions.
“Trying to run away?”
But that thought had already been read.
Baek Sa-jun snapped his fingers. Red fog appeared before the predator could escape.
– Ss …
Red fog covering all directions.
In the meantime, a two-winged monster appeared. Jinjo, Aria, and even Jinjo’s loyal followers who had followed her in life.
They both got angry at the same time.
-Whaaaaaaah!
After a while, a huge curtain was opened.
It was a huge curtain of blood that covered everything from the ground to the underground. It was possible because the area was expanded as it was reinforced with red fog.
Following this, Gaiad gained strength.
“Keuk! I’m going to die. Gaiad!”
– I know that too. You have to keep your promises.
As it was destroyed, fragments of the earth scattered throughout the snowfield rose up and covered it in a curtain of blood.
One after another, countless trees grew out of the ground, once again enveloping the curtain reinforced by the debris from the ground.
A three-layer curtain surrounded the area.
From underground to above ground and sky.
– Haaaaaah… … .
– Ss …
There the tyrant appeared.
The army that appeared through the blood-red fog spread out its formation and surrounded the eaten ones.
And then countless corpses appeared from the ground, and Baek Sa-jun’s undead rose.
Even the spirits that support those guys.
“This time, you won’t be able to escape.”
Ghosts, undead, and spirits.
A strange combination of forces surrounded the main body of the predator, preventing it from escaping.
The predator’s body trembled.
– Food, etc… … .
– Crunch!
The predator concentrated.
If he tries to block himself with that curtain, he can just destroy it from the inside out. He called in the mud and the eaten ones that spread throughout Jeju Island.
To be exact, I tried to call it in.
– Ugh, woooosh!
But that couldn’t be done.
At that very moment, the mud and the eaten people that had been spread all over Jeju Island began to attack.
The predator’s form closed its eyes.
What is reflected in those eyes.
– Kwaaaaang!
– Their movements have slowed down! Drive them out!
It looked like the warlords were counterattacking.
To be exact, the city they rule.
* * *
Meanwhile, in the liberated city.
Ha Jung-seok, the leader of the Jeju Liberation Union and the city’s leader, looked anxiously beyond.
What he sees is a horde of predators.
“Fuck, this fucking… fucking… .”
Only curses kept flowing out of his mouth.
Why did such a monster appear without any warning? Why did this damn apocalypse happen on Jeju Island of all places?
All kinds of thoughts were running through my head.
“Oh, Captain. The barrier is in danger. If we keep getting attacked like this, we won’t be able to hold out.”
“I know, you little shit!”
Ha Jung-seok bit his fingernails.
Who doesn’t know? If things continue this way, the wall will collapse and the city will collapse.
‘I should have run away when I could!’
If only I had run away before that black mud blocked my path, I could have escaped.
I couldn’t do that because there were too many things to take care of.
Now, whether we like it or not, we have to protect this place.
‘That guy, that guy said it.’
Ha Jung-seok thought about the monster that came yesterday.
A vampire with a very thin body. He appeared in his office without making a sound.
And then she spoke calmly to the astonished man.
– Tomorrow, the predator’s movements will become… strange. At that time, give it everything you have.
The vampire revealed his master and left.
The owner’s name was ‘Baek Sa-jun’. He was a necromancer who defeated the predator when it first appeared.
And he was a very famous person these days.
‘Why is that kid here?’
If he’s that great of a guy to solve the Busan disaster, he should be playing on land, not here.
But there was a silver lining. A guy like that could probably solve the Jeju Island disaster.
“Well, I guess it’s right to follow for now.”
Ha Jung-seok made a quick decision.
It would be right to follow Baek Sa-jun, a man who is more familiar with dealing with such disasters than herself.
He looked outside with an anxious face.
“Damn, so when is that time!”
The barrier is in danger.
The morale of the soldiers was also low. It was natural when monsters that were not easily attacked were coming.
It won’t last long if things continue like this.
‘When, when on earth… … .’
Ha Jung-seok bit his lip.
And then, the soldiers guarding the barrier against the predator’s onslaught noticed something strange.
“Come up! Kill him!”
“Fuck, stop him from coming up!”
“I’ll do whatever it takes as long as the attack works!”
Mud and the eaten ones climbing up the wall.
The soldiers’ attacks are not very effective. The only way is to drive them out using the defensive facilities.
But then suddenly something became strange.
– Ugh, ah, ugh… … .
– Thud! Gulp… … .
“Hey, hey! Something seems strange?”
The mud and the eaten ones’ movements slowed down.
There, unlike a little while ago, the soldiers’ attacks were somewhat effective. This was because the main body of the predator had gone into the permafrost, and because it was exposed by Namgung Yeon’s magic and was attacked.
“Hey, something… … .”
“Uh, I think your movements have slowed down?”
“Is it okay to attack?!”
Hesitant soldiers.
As soon as he saw that, Ha Jung-seok realized.
Right now is the moment the vampire spoke of yesterday. He gave urgent orders to his subordinates.
“Activate your defenses to the max! Use the moment the enemies stop to launch an attack!”
“Are you talking about now?”
“But even if I attack… … .”
Hesitant subordinates.
The old man’s voice fell.
“Move quickly, you little shits! If we don’t drive them out now, we’re all dead! Get started!”
“Oh, I understand!”
“Magic cannon activated!”
Defense facilities starting to operate.
A massive barrage of magical energy fell upon the enemies.
– Kwaaaaang!
The same thing was happening in other cities, whether in the Outlaw-occupied fortress or in the city ruled by the Fae mercenaries.
All three were places where many people lived, so there were many predators and places where the mud and the eaten were placed.
“The attack is working!”
“Give it all you’ve got!”
Those who were eaten by mud were being destroyed, unable to follow the orders of the main body that called them.
* * *
The predator’s form opened its eyes.
Crunch! The bastard ground his teeth in anger.
– Feed, what have you done?
“What are you doing? I’m preparing to catch you.”
It was something that had been prepared for two days.
The news of Baek Sa-jun’s activities in Busan spread, and the fact that he had defeated a predator that had first appeared in Jeju Island gave confidence to the warlords.
I used that to create this situation.
A situation where the main body of the predator is trapped here, killing those it has eaten and weakening it.
“I told you. I have no intention of missing out this time.”
Baek Sa-jun committed fraud.
Two golems and his followers appeared beside him. Namgung Yeon, who was spitting blood from his mouth, stood beside him along with Gaiad.
“Go. I’ll kill that guy no matter what.”
– Gooooooo!
– Ghhhh!
Baek Sa-jun’s fraud spread everywhere.
and permeated the undead in the area.
The undead, strengthened by the effect, charged.
The Tyrant’s army was in the lead. Knights, unaffected by the mud, crushed their enemies.
-Whaaaaaaah!
While the Tyrant’s army was drawing attention, Magnus and the spirits worked their magic.
A massive blizzard swept across the snowfield, soon freezing the mud and the eaten.
– Gooooooo!
– Kwaaaaang!
The golems followed.
Ice Golems and Blood Golems destroy frozen mud and the eaten. Ice picks pierced the enemies, and the scattered blood exploded.
“Skeleton, Iria. Open the way!”
– Bam!
Finish it as quickly as possible.
There’s no point in dragging your time. Deal with the predator here as quickly as possible.
The skeleton, Iria, and Jinjo’s retinue rushed forward. Fierce flames and countless blood magics opened the way for Baek Sa-jun to advance.
“Cerberus, run!”
– Keuheuheu!
Baek Sa-jun patted Cerberus on the back.
Cerberus, carrying his master on his back, galloped along the path made by the skeleton and Iria.
There is only one goal.
– Food, etc… … !
The body of a writhing predator.
There was only one.
