The World of Sound - Chapter 88
Only Noblemtl
Teeing!
“Whoa!!”
Tiddy ding!!
As soon as she saw the sudden shower of arrows, Biyeon screamed to relay the news to the carriage and flew towards the coachman.
He gritted his teeth and protected the horse and the groom, who were versatile but weak in martial arts, by shooting arrows.
She also possessed martial arts skills that could be called the best of the best, but this was because the shock transmitted to the sword every time she fired an arrow was not small.
Who would have thought that an arrow could be loaded with this much energy?
This is not at the level of a swordsman.
It means that at least one can put energy like black energy into an arrow, and being able to put that much power into an arrow that leaves one’s body and is shot like that means that one is a great archer.
Who in today’s martial arts world could have such talent?
Also, how many masters would it have taken to fire this many arrows?
When I thought about it that far, the answer came easily.
“Blood Archers… …!”
Those who are called the Blood Palace Squad.
Because there were only troubleshooters who stood on the border between a ronin and an assassin.
It was known that the Gwangpungsa of Daemak far away could handle the bow with similar ease, but they would never leave Daemak, so it was only them.
Wheeeeeeeeeek-!!
The moment I bit my lips while thinking of my opponent, the sky turned black and a rain of arrows poured down.
If all those arrows had the same power, they might be able to protect the driver somehow, but they wouldn’t be able to protect the horse or carriage.
It was the same even if he fully displayed his mature peak of power.
If you have the time, you could try to spread out your sword energy as much as possible, but even then, you’d only be able to do it once or twice.
After that, it was meaningless because I had to think about the history.
In that case, I have no choice but to leave it to the two people in the carriage.
I was angry at my own shortcomings because it was an unbecoming thought, but there was no other way.
All I can do is drop my sword, spread my sword curtain, and focus on rescuing the groom.
However, there was no sound inside the carriage until the moment the arrow was about to hit the carriage.
At that moment, I panicked and wondered if he had fallen asleep, when the carriage shook slightly.
A huge wave of lightning shot out over the carriage along with it, sweeping away the flying arrows.
Cheonumshinkong
Clashing sound
Resonance
“!!”
Thud thud thud!!!
Of course, it was impossible for all three of them to have fallen asleep.
Even if you fall asleep, if you can’t wake up after being exposed to this kind of murderous intent, you don’t deserve to be called a master.
But even so, he didn’t jump out of the carriage because there was no need to.
Cheonhwa stopped Bukgungyeon, who was about to run out, and lightly placed his hand on the carriage ceiling.
As a result, arrows that were probably over a hundred long seemed to stop in midair, then lost their strength and fell to the ground.
A force greater than that of the shot flew in and turned them into ordinary wooden sticks.
“Wow, it’s so loud.”
Cheonhwa, who had neutralized the arrows that were being shot with tremendous momentum in one go, opened the carriage door belatedly and walked out staggering.
After that, the tense look on Maga Cheol Bangju’s face was seen, but it was difficult to find anything similar in Bukgung Yeon’s expression as he followed him.
The composure of the strong.
It was an attack that made even Biyeon, a master of ripe peak, nervous, but it didn’t seem to be a problem to them at all.
“Hmm. This is my first time meeting archers in the martial arts world.”
“They must be the ones called Blood Archers. They are a rare group in the martial arts world who use bows as weapons. Their specialty is killing their opponents from a distance without being seen. Should we look for them?”
That would be the case, since it would be difficult to startle or make them nervous without an arrow that contained a strong energy.
The same applies if you try to snipe from a distance, from an unseen position.
After all, arrows tend to fly in a certain direction, and if you trace them back, you can find the location of those who fired them.
They would have to deploy light attack to quickly change positions, but if their light attack was overwhelmingly faster, that wouldn’t be a problem either.
“No. That’s fine. Is there really a need to do that when dealing with those scumbags? Let’s leave it to this guy.”
“Are you talking to that kid?”
“Kiyut?”
That’s why Bukgungyeon suggested that he step forward himself, but Cheonhwa shook her head.
I thought he was going to come forward himself, but that wasn’t the case.
What Cheonhwa pointed out was none other than the Noeryeongseo.
The idea is to give him a chance to deal with the infamous Blood Archers.
“I’ll be back shortly, so you stay here and guard the carriage. Can you do that?”
“Of course.”
It was absurd, but Bukgungyeon did not spit it out.
If that’s the case, then that’s what it is.
It was a belief that came about because I had seen things that seemed absurd up until now being done as if they were natural.
Rather, he seemed to have a secret sense of pride in the fact that he had been entrusted with the defense of the carriage, which was the most important part of the escort request.
That must mean you believe in yourself.
“Then let’s go.”
“Kki, kkiit?!”
Thanks to that, Noeryeong, who was quietly in Cheonhwa’s arms, was flustered but did not run away.
It’s just that he’s still in the process of growing up, but the strength of the brain is in no way inferior to that of Biyeon.
That was already the case before I even ate the Brain Spirit.
Also, it was because I had faith in my master.
Believing that he would not push her into danger, Brainyung groaned and quietly escaped from his arms, where he was performing light techniques, and climbed onto his shoulders.
With their unique senses, they were able to detect the location and movements of those who dared to target them.
“The best way to get used to a new power is to try it out a lot. Can you do it?”
“Kkiyuyut!!”
At the same time, Cheonhwa drew on the power of Cheon-geop-su and Baek-su to caress the guy, and his momentum grew even stronger.
The guy who had been whining and complaining just a moment ago was now showing off his confidence to the point where the hairs on his body stood on end.
“Go, Brain Spirit!!”
“Kkkikkki!!”
Then, as the Blood Palace Squad hurriedly unfolded their magic and distanced themselves, Cheonhwa placed the Brain Spirit in his hand.
I threw it with all my might, injecting a lot of brain energy into it.
Dismissed!!
In an instant, a bolt of lightning shot from his hand.
It was as if the brain spirit itself had become lightning, shooting out lightning while holding lightning in its mouth.
“Huh!?”
It was natural that those who were trying to snipe the flying Cheonhwa and Brain Spirit were greatly flustered.
They were proud that they could shoot anything with their eyes and archery, but the current brain spirit was incapable of seeing or dealing with anything.
“Ugh… … !”
No, the moment I raised my hand to do something, the brain spirit’s head was already stuck in my psyche.
The speed and destructive power were such that it would have pierced through anything other than the brain, but that didn’t mean it was any better.
A powerful brain energy that the brain spirit holds and emits.
That’s what burned the bastard to the ground.
Everything, from the outside to the inside.
“Shoot, shoot!”
The other Blood Archers were shocked at the sight and raised their bows.
However, the arrow was pointed towards Cheonhwa, not Noeryeong.
That was their mistake.
“Kkieeeeet!!”
It was because I didn’t know what was wrong with my colleagues.
I don’t know if that one body slam had knocked out the brain spirit, but the guy’s entire body was protected by the brain energy.
Of course, he wasn’t particularly shocked and jumped up while trampling on his fallen opponent.
Kwajijijijik-!!!
As the brain released its power, the bright yellow brain energy, like spiderwebs, scattered in all directions.
He struck the surrounding enemies faster than an arrow and electrocuted them all.
“Krrrrrrr… … ?”
It’s a situation where you don’t know what you’re being hit with.
The bright yellow lightning stream was fast, but it also dazzled the vision and hid the presence of the brain spirit, allowing the brain spirit to quickly move between them and freely unleash the lightning.
“Spread out!”
However, the scope was not that wide.
Rather, because they were running wild in the beginning, the enemies were able to quickly check the range, and they started to move around to avoid the brain spirit and lightning.
Also, trees blocking the advancement of the brain were a problem.
As they evaded by hiding behind obstacles, the brain spirits found it difficult to move around like before, and the monsters also had some leeway.
You can identify the brain spirit and attack it directly, and even have the luxury of aiming for the heavenly flower.
“Hmm. I don’t know if you don’t know me or if you underestimate me.”
What is the most effective tool for killing a person?
It was probably a bow. After all, if you hit it right, whether you’re stabbed by a sword, spear, or arrow, you can inflict wounds or kill the target the same way, and since a bow can be fired multiple times from a safe distance, there’s nothing more efficient than that.
That’s why bows play a big role in military battles.
However, if you were wearing armor that could deflect arrows, it would be a different story, but even so, if you could aim for the armor’s joints and shoot, the power would still be tremendous.
In that sense, the bow was a very effective weapon of mass destruction for martial artists who rarely wore armor, but the reason it was not used was clear.
Experts above a certain level are able to use self-defense weapons, which are better than armor, and have martial arts and techniques that allow them to approach and block incoming arrows with their swords.
However, these Blood Archers overcame it through martial arts related to archery.
He was able to fire arrows that contained the power to destroy the defensive weapons, and he studied archery, which allowed him to penetrate sophisticated swordsmanship.
That is why, even though it did not have the stealthiness of a murderer, it was considered an object of even greater fear.
“Then I have no choice but to tell you. Who I’m aiming at.”
Fight!
Cheonhwa, who had been leisurely watching the activities of the brain spirit, hugged the iron lute.
With a light flick of the hand, the rushing arrows scattered and bounced away at once.
Sound amplitude.
Or a sound curtain.
It seemed as if a protective shield of sonic waves, so to speak, had spread around him.
The energy that shattered all projectiles that existed in any space where sound waves reached, where there was no such thing as a square, spread out from him, and it was at that moment that their eyes began to waver.
Because every time the strings danced slowly, the archery skills they were so confident in were being shattered.
“Should I try this too while I’m at it?”
But defense alone won’t be enough to subdue them.
The brain spirit realized that it could no longer deal with them by just spraying lightning, so it started directly shooting at them and taking them down one by one, but the speed was a bit slow.
If they chose to run away, it would be impossible to subdue them all, so Cheonhwa decided to take action himself.
However, the method was a bit unusual.
“good!”
Woof!
Whirilirik-
What Cheonhwa took out of her bosom and threw was the secret weapon of the Tang family that she had purchased from Heungseomm.
It was designed to be made by overlapping two thin iron plates so that they could each rotate independently, but since they didn’t know how to fire it, they interpreted it in their own way and fired it.
“?!”
Two iron plates held between the thumb and index finger are lifted while turning them in different directions.
It would have a pretty good cutting power on its own, but what’s surprising is that when you throw it with some internal energy, it gains some buoyancy on its own.
Because of this, it seemed difficult to manipulate and accurately hit the enemy, but Cheonhwa solved it in a different way.
“Let’s play!”
Fight!!
It utilized the sound of the Cheolryeong pipa.
As the sound waves generated by the string plucking reached the dark energy, the dark energy floating in the air quickly flew in.
Faster than if I had injected my internal energy into it and thrown it with my hand, the injected energy emitted a force like a sword and tore through the side of a member of the Blood Palace far away.
“Hmm. It’s not easy, is it?”
Diririring-
That alone was an amazing feat.
However, when Cheonhwa played the iron lute again as if he was not pleased, something even more surprising happened.
“Ugh… … !”
The dark dragon that flew through the bastard’s side changed direction as if it was spinning and tore the nape of another bastard nearby.
It was like looking at a sword.
Using sound waves to manipulate dark energy, and imbuing the dark energy you throw with internal energy greater than that of a sword?
Also, the rotating weapon’s properties add up and tear apart wounds?
Since it was something no one had imagined, shock erupted here and there, but the effectiveness of the method did not end there.
“Oh, the self-defense weapon… … big!”
Some of them belatedly tried to defend themselves by deploying their defensive gi, but the dark energy easily tore them apart and lodged itself in their bodies.
It is not only because it contains the power of a simple sword, but also because it contains some waves that are emitted by itself and strengthened through sound waves.
It floated through the air and harassed enemies as if it were a secret weapon that specialized in destroying self-defense weapons.
“Should we increase the number a bit?”
Even the number of secret weapons that Cheonhwa possessed was not one.
As the number of secret instruments to be manipulated increases, it would be normal for the level of detail to decrease, but Cheonhwa played and manipulated them as if it were no problem, and in an instant, the place became a battlefield.
“Kkiyuut!!”
Crackle crackle crackle!!
As I got used to it, I became accustomed to it, and now not only did I wrap my brain around my entire body, I concentrated it on my feet to cause explosive movement, and I moved faster than light air, like lightning, and freely bent and fired brain waves as if they were my own body. While I was being chased by the brain spirit, an unidentified dark energy attacked me, and I was unable to even think about counterattacking, and I was busy trying to dodge.
“!!”
At that moment, an eerie aura came from somewhere, aiming at Cheonhwa without even a trace.
He didn’t even sense it until it was right in front of him, so he hurriedly stepped on the sword and tried to kick the flying arrow with his foot, but the power contained in that one foot was so terrifying that he had no choice but to dodge it by kicking his foot back down.
