#283. The Wise Man 8

#Episode 283.

······The wise man, Cesta Asparov, suddenly opened his eyes.

The trembling presence consumed my son-in-law in an instant.

“The great wizard who used Brahman’s magic… Did I really kill him?”

However, the first thing the wise man said was extremely strange.

A great magician who used Brahman magic. That is, he is asking if he killed the dead Seven-Sided Brahman Karnuyi.

Everyone in the room froze in coldness at the wise man’s unclear question.

“That’s ridiculous······.”

Caracal, a level 9 high-ranking wizard, took a deep breath.

As the head of the Brahman family of the magical world Megacorp, he had faced many strong opponents for a long time, but he was so flustered that he could not continue speaking. Even when he was attacked by a powerful corpse, and when a large amount of blood and corpses fell from the sky, he did not move at all, so why did he wake up now of all times!

Caracal’s magical power, which he had been gathering by activating the mana circuit, subsided along with his killing intent.

The wise man’s two white eyes without any black pupils were now staring at the caracal and asking questions.

—······.

Even the warriors of the Jeongmu Alliance were terrified and froze, not knowing what to do. Even level 9 masters couldn’t even think of drawing their swords. There was even a level 8 master who thought he had fallen into a trap and fell backwards in shock.

Kuguguguguguguung—!

Meanwhile, a huge amount of yakuza gathered from the sky and fell like a barrage, exploding the giant creatures that jumped up from the ground with a single blow. As the heavy flesh fell, the axis of the earth shook uneasily, and unidentified tentacles rose from the ground, gathering and absorbing the exploded flesh and dragging it underground.

It was a very disharmonious sight. It was a very uncomfortable feeling.

The surrounding scenery is somewhat contradictory and out of sync with the sage who opened his eyes. It is disharmonious and extremely bizarre.

In addition, the aura of the wise man, which seemed to be a mixture of magic and yogic energy, greatly embarrassed the twelve elders, Karakal and Gwangbaek Lee. Even for the experienced men, it was the first time in their lives that they had encountered such an aura.

‘······.’

Why else would Lee Gwang-baek, who had actively persuaded the Brahmin family to come here, have been so overcome by a strange sense of discomfort that he could not make a cool-headed decision? If it were the original Lee Gwang-baek, he would have tried to cut off the sage’s head as soon as he opened his eyes.

Right then.

Brahmin Caracal bit his lip and came to his senses. He shook off the pressure that had settled on him and answered.

“······You killed Karnuy, the Seventh Seat of Al Heimdall. He was a great wizard from the Brahman family. Don’t you think it’s too late to back out now?”

The wise man answered immediately as if his doubts had been resolved.

“Why did it have to be Chiljwa (七座)? It’s really unfortunate. But I guess I had no choice but to protect this place.”

“······.”

It was an absurd answer.

Even though it was something he had done himself, the wise man acted as if he was talking about someone else. It was obvious that he was not in a normal state.

So thought Caracal, the chief of the Brahmins.

···Could it be that they are still resisting the undead’s power? However, it has been too long since the sage disappeared. Furthermore, since the Seven Seats had already been killed, no matter what the reason, it was absolutely impossible to accept and move on.

Hear me-

Soon, Caracal turned his gaze toward Lee Gwang-baek. It was his intention to join forces and kill him. At that moment, Lee Gwang-baek’s sword was spraying a thick black light. That was because he intended to cut him down if necessary.

“···What did you have to protect even at the cost of killing the Seven Seats?”

However, seeing that the wise man was able to communicate to some extent, Gwangbaek Lee asked questions instead of attacking in order to get even a small clue. He thought that the wise man was using a trick, but he knew that there was no reason for him to do so.

“······.”

In response to Gwangbaek Lee’s question, the wise man seemed to be thinking deeply about something, then lowered his gaze, with only the whites of his eyes remaining, to the ground and muttered.

“Hope. Hope for the Federation of Humanity.”

“······hope?”

Naturally, Lee Gwang-baek’s eyes followed the gaze of the wise man, who was dyed white, and went down.

The ground beneath the sage’s feet, covered in blood and flesh, was damp as if it had rained. Lee Gwang-baek immediately exhaled his energy and examined the area. He couldn’t find anything particularly unusual.

However, it was clear that the Sage was hiding something secret. From the fact that he had insisted on revealing that he was the Sage Cesta Asparov to the strange situation on the battlefield where he was not infected, and even the fact that he was conversing with humanity in this way.

There was great anticipation for Lee Gwang-baek’s next question.

“I want to know what hope it is. Do you remember the nine humans who returned alive from here?”

“I don’t remember.”

“They are not infected. Those who are fighting in that battlefield right now are also not infected for some reason. So, are there antibodies or antidotes like that here?”

Lee Gwang-baek got straight to the point without hesitation. It was a question that could immediately resolve the questions that followed one after another. Although it was clearly a short moment until the answer was given, it felt like an eternity.

The wise man stared blankly at the battlefield and then licked his lips.

“It’s different from those things, but it exists. The results of my wanderings around the continent were buried in these ruins. Someone dug up this place and I felt the energy so I came looking for it.”

“······!”

But while Lee Gwang-baek opened his eyes wide in surprise.

The wise man’s tone suddenly became quicker, as if he had no time.

“But my current state is not easy. It seems that you cannot kill me with your power. If you take my blood, everything will be in vain. So, return to that battlefield immediately and bring in those who are as strong as the previous Brahman archmage. And by the way, someone has brought my staff—”

“?”

and.

At one point, the voice of the wise man who was continuing his answer suddenly stopped.

Huuuuuuu—

Then the wise man breathed out a breath of magical power as hot as a flame. He looked troubled, as if he could not control the power surging within him.

The powerful figures in the room each raised their spirits and took steps to distance themselves from the sage, who was in a serious state. Lee Gwang-baek, who looked disappointed, was the same.

‘Are you of sound mind after all?’

That was the moment when Lee Gwang-baek thought like that.

Kkuddududuk—

“?!”

Then, all of a sudden, the sage’s body twisted as if it had been burned. His cervical vertebrae and spine folded and crumpled at bizarre angles, making a terrible sound.

The sage raised his aura as if he was trying to hold on to his crumpled body. Soon, the sage let out a terrible scream. His thick aura spread out over the ruins where the sound of a groan echoed.

Yes, after a few seconds.

Also, small black dots appeared on the white pupils. And then, like a flash of paint, the black dots spread out and covered the entire pupils.

A breathtaking yogic energy, completely different from before, rippled and floated in the air. It was as if a different being was standing there than before.

A little later.

The gazes of the wise man and Gwangbaek Lee crossed, and Gwangbaek Lee, startled by the ominous gaze, immediately opened his mouth.

“Get out of here. Something is off.”

Kwakwakwakwang!

At the same time, a huge roar echoed beneath the sage’s feet, and giant creatures writhe and jump up like springs.

At least seven of them were visible. There was no way to respond. They were so huge that they swallowed up the land and people in one bite.

Wow!

In an instant, a level 8 Brahman wizard was devoured. At first glance, it looked similar to the monsters I had faced so far, but it was different. From the energy it held to its size and speed, it was several levels higher than the ones I had faced before.

Kuguguguguguguung—

The next moment, a large fireball extended from the Brahman Caracal’s hand and passed right through the giant creature’s torso. As expected from the Brahman clan, which was famous for its aggressive magic, a loud roar echoed through the sky.

However, just as the caracal had defeated the two, a larger giant rose from the ground. The sage simply stood still, but the aura he was emitting continued to grow. The warriors and magicians were confused and at a loss.

Crunch!

“Stand back!”

In such a situation, even Lee Gwang-baek had no choice but to retreat while swinging his sword repeatedly. Even if he were to reduce their numbers by one, they would continue to rise above the ground.

“this······.”

Lee Gwang-baek, who had shaken off his bloody dagger, let out a soft sigh. He had fully considered that the sage was a powerful being. However, no matter how strong he was, he had just fought the Seven Seats, and he judged that his strength would be greatly drained since the territory he had spread out had disappeared.

But what the wise man is showing them now—

“It’s not that I lost my strength······I was just conserving my strength to deal with that guy.”

Kwajik!

One of the retreating Brahman magicians died without leaving a single word. It wasn’t because he was attacked by a giant creature. The Jeongmu-maeng and the Brahman clan were only wary of the monster rising from the ground, and they missed the important part.

Woooooooooooooooooooo—

Over there.

The obvious fact that there was another being targeting the wise man.

Lee Gwang-baek lamented the shadow that was cast over his head. He was so distracted by the loud noise of the Yogi cannons and the conversation with the wise man that he was late in realizing it.

Swish—

Lee Gwang-baek, with his face distorted, slowly raises his head.

Before they knew it, the giant’s foot was landing on their heads.

【······.】

Named Parumuchi.

By the time I realized the giant had moved, its huge soles, with their tendons and muscles exposed, were already one step away from the ruins where the Sage’s remains were.

simplicity and honesty—

Eventually, the giant soles slowly trampled the sage’s domain.

The atmosphere was crushed by the enormous weight, and a loud noise was heard as if the world would collapse at any moment. The ruined small town disappeared under the weight, and only the wise man standing there was left staring at the soles of his feet.

soon.

Woooooooooooooo—

From the sage’s body, the realm of yoga spreads out anew.

Jjajajajajajak—

In response, Parumuchi’s soles were torn apart as if they had been cut by hundreds of millions of blades, and a huge amount of blood flew out like bullets. Parumuchi’s huge body, having lost its feet, tilted backwards and made a loud cracking sound.

But it wasn’t just Parumuchi.

Phew-

The skin on Parumuchi’s abdomen, where his internal organs were visible, bulged out. The next moment, the entity hiding inside poked its head out, emitting a terrifying aura.

【 Gotcha. You blood thief. 】

Suddenly, the corpse spread its arms wide. Ominous energy gathered in the air. The vision of the humans looking in that direction shook wildly. The energy that distorted the air fell like lightning and attacked the sage, and with an ear-piercing explosion, a huge amount of flesh was thrown out several kilometers away. More than ten creatures burst out at once.

Kuddudduk—

Then, a great vibration echoed from beneath the sage’s feet. The ground shook. Tough tentacles began to coil around the sage’s feet, and the ground began to lift.

Kwakwakwakwakwang—!

Even standing up was difficult due to the vibrations, and everyone in the room, including Lee Gwang-baek, looked shocked. They were swept here and there, unable to come to their senses, and were desperate to survive by avoiding the flesh of the heavy corpses.

As time passed, a monster that was dozens of times larger than a giant creature in the shape of a snail was supporting the sage’s feet. Just by the monster’s appearance, turning the ground upside down, a mound of dirt was created. Just like the mound of dirt that was created during the battle between the Seven-Sided Brahmin Karnui and the sage, where the terrain changed.

Numerous tentacles stretched out from the feet of the sage with his black eyes shining, connecting to the giant monster. Soon, suffocating auras from all directions fiercely pressed on the skin, and at that point, the unmanned and magicians below level 7 began to lose consciousness.

thud······

thud······

The sight becomes hazy as the disaster strikes. The unimaginable force collides and distorts the space comically.

Fear and terror that are heightened to the limit momentarily erase human reason and make us lose our sense of reality. Even though the sound of the heartbeat and the clash of boiling energy constantly prove that it is reality,

Boom- boom- boom-

Among humans who are crushed by being trampled by something huge.

“······.”

Lee Gwang-baek, with his shabby appearance, looked up at the sky and blankly watched the battle between monsters.

* * *

Kurururururung—

Over there.

The corpses that had been endlessly firing spells at the wise men, giants, and yogis were finally entangled.

Several members of the expedition turned their heads at the massive vibration felt in the ground and began to murmur.

“That······.”

“Parumuchi has moved. Is he fighting the wise man?”

“The core forces of the Jeongmu Alliance and the Brahman are inside those ruins. I was just about to go get something that could be helpful······.”

“Huh, nonsense. You were just blinded by greed and left this place behind, and now you’re making up excuses.”

The expedition was now divided into several camps.

The Cat King faced Shikryun, and Isaac faced Bahal.

Sa-Cheok-San was being blocked by Dok-Go-Ung-Baek and Seo-Wang, and Hang-Ri was being persistently attacked by Dang-Nok-Un. Unlike before, the human race had taken a very advantageous position in the battle and was pushing forward all at once. The whole body that the three corpses had been supporting was gradually being pushed back, and they were quite far from where the wise man was.

Kwaaaaah—

Among them, the jar was spewing pus and blood in all directions in a last-ditch effort. It was understandable, since there were three level 10 monsters standing in front of the jar.

In the end, the final struggle didn’t last long.

The jar’s body collapsed in the face of Tangnokun’s invisible poison. The red arms that had grown inside its stomach like plants poured out, and Kaso Pon’s greatsword and Revan’s light cut them off, signaling the end of the named jar.

Dang Nok-un, who had been badly injured during the battle, sat cross-legged.

yet.

“after-”

Revan, who had been holding his breath, turned his head in the direction where the sage was.

At first glance, it seems that an unimaginable amount of power is involved. The sage standing on the ruins is now entangled with a giant monster’s tentacles.

The Sage’s Staff on Revan’s waist is vibrating like crazy.

“Are you going now?”

Caso Pon asked.

“I have to go.”

After looking around for a moment, Revan answered without hesitation.

The battlefield was covered in blood and pus spewed out by the jars.

Hooooooooo—!

The gusting wind pushed Revan’s new form away.
