Steel eating player chapter 130

=========================================

Hundreds of Black Orcs were clustered between the ruined buildings.

It would have been an elite unit of the Black Orcs that invaded this land.

But, they just hold their weapons and line up, and they haven’t started any action yet.

Of course, in a situation where iron plates made of steel are all over the place, no matter how impatient a fighting race might be, they would have decided that it was right to move after carefully observing the situation.

But that judgment was rather poisonous.

The moment Lee Hyun-wook raised Mjölnir and the sky flashed, some Black Orcs realized.

The iron plates that have just been thrown down in all directions are the giant steel cages that imprison them,

If you stay like this, you will be annihilated by Lee Hyun-wook again… … .

Whoa–!

Starting with the shouting of the boss monster, the warrior leader Sumac, the Black Orcs raised their weapons.

Soon, a dozen javelin spears flew in, aiming for Lee Hyun-wook’s heart.

But Lee Hyun-wook was faster. He lifted the iron plate and wrapped it around his body.

Tongue-tong-tung-tong-

At the same time, he induced a ‘storm of flames’ while lifting Mjölnir.

– caution! A ‘storm of flames’ begins in the area!

Red clouds began to gather in the sky.

No, to be precise, it wasn’t a cloud.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah–!

It was a kind of mass of plasma, what should be called a flame bundle.

‘This… … This is the wide-area skill that Phaeton used.’

Lee Hyun-wook recalled the hellish heat he experienced in Jeju Island. I don’t know how close this skill is in the 1st to 5th stages, but if it exploded so close, it would be difficult to withstand it.

‘It’s far more lethal in places like this without cover.’

Perhaps noticing a strange sensation, the puppet of Diable—Stonox raised his arms.

At that moment, dozens of black orcs standing around him grabbed the nape of their neck and vomited blood.

Then black smoke rose from his mouth, and was sucked into Dieble’s grasp.

Shortly thereafter, Dieble stretched out his hands to the sky—

Uh–!

This time, the black dome, a large-scale shield, bloomed and covered the Black Orc Corps.

‘I knew it… … .’

Hyun-wook Lee predicted that and immediately dropped 3 moglays that were previously floating in the sky at the same time.

It may not be as powerful as falling from a low altitude, but there was still a ‘shockwave’ left.

Zeng——! Zeng——! Zeng——!

A powerful shock wave that exploded at the same time as the collision blew away the upper part of the black dome like a shell.

‘Now!’

At that moment, bundles of red flames gathered from the sky whirled and fell.

Whoa-ah-ah-ah-ah–!

Exactly in the middle of the ranks of the Black Orcs, he dug into them like the blades of a mixer.

Whoa-ah-ah-ah-ah–!

Hundreds of Black Orcs could be seen opening their mouths at the same time in that wide blow.

Faces full of pain… … He was probably screaming with all his might.

But nothing was heard. Because the storm, the roaring noise, covered the whole world.

– Defeat Black Orc Elite Warriors to earn achievement points. (+13)

– Defeat Black Orc Elite Warriors to earn achievement points. (+12)

– Defeat Black Orc Elite Warriors to earn achievement points. (+11)

Only the system messages that receive public points made me realize the power of this skill.

Asphalt in the area melted sticky and soared following the hot wind, drawing a black spiral.

All kinds of stone fragments scattered all over the place soared and a sand storm the size of a building erupted.

Kwa-and-and-and-and–!

Blight Storm, smaller in scope than Phaeton wrote, but not inferior to heat.’

Lee Hyun-wook also felt the heat that was hard to bear, and stepped back a long way.

About 30 seconds later, the chloride storm stopped, and the heat slowly began to dissipate.

At that moment, Kang Seo-yoon and Han Tae-san’s voices were heard from behind.

“Oh, isn’t that the technique Phaeton used?”

“You… what have you been picking up on Jeju Island?”

Both of them could not hide their surprise and asked one after another.

Then Oh Kyung-pyo followed and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

“Crazy, I can’t even get out of my mind… … Is this over?”

However, Kang Seo-yoon shook his head and hung an arrow on the bowstring.

“Tsuk, unfortunately, both boss monsters are very good, so don’t relax.”

“Huh? No, I’m fine in that crazy heat, is that true?”

“I wish it wasn’t, but I can see it. It’s standing upright over there.”

As she was the highest level of the shooter class, she was able to detect the invisible.

oh oh oh….

After a while, the chlorinated storm completely subsided and a devastating scene unfolded.

As if reproducing the tragedy of the ruins of Pompeii, fossils of painful struggles were intertwined.

But between them, as Kang Seo-yoon said, two In-youngs stood tall.

“Uh–”

A moan of anger rather than pain… … The two boss monsters, Sumact and Dieble, seemed to have sacrificed the lives of many Black Orcs even for a brief moment and surrounded their body with a shield.

“Damn, you’re sick of it… What else did you use to make it look so good?”

Kyungpyo Oh fixed the spear and sharpened it.

“Come on, we’re nervous because it’s a boss monster—”

At that moment, Sumact raised his battle axe and slammed it to the floor.

Whoa—and—and—and——!

The already twisted asphalt road soars like a wave and rushes in.

“—I stop!”

Oh Kyung-pyo stepped forward and slammed the spear with all his might.

Hung——!

A sharp wind pressure rose from the tip of his spear and pierced the center of the asphalt wave.

Then, as if being hit by an anesthetic gun, the wave’s forward speed significantly slowed down.

However-

bang! bang! bang! bang!

As Sumakt continues to sharpen his ax in succession, the ground liquefies and rushes like a river in the rainy season.

“Oh, I’m sorry, but that’s a bit…”

Those who were standing there threw themselves in all directions.

At that moment, the guy kicked off the floor and flew away.

“Lee Hyun-wook, he’s after you, so be careful—!”

Kang Seo-yoon shouted and rolled on the floor, and at the same time fired an arrow towards Sumakt.

sh-sh-sh-sh–

However, Sumakt struck off four arrows just by waving his hand, and raised his ax toward Lee Hyun-wook. Lee Hyun-wook sharply deformed the iron plates that were floating around his body and then sent them away.

“Aaaaah—on a mere human subject—I dare—rip it out—!”

Noom swung them down like a cannonball, like swinging a baseball bat.

‘Damn, this is a bit dangerous.’

Hyun-wook Lee felt it even as he took it out. If you enter the range of that 2m axe, you will surely die.

At that moment, another In-young appeared right next to Lee Hyun-wook.

“—Get out of the way!”

Han Tae-san, he flew next to Lee Hyun-wook.

Lee Hyun-wook also stepped back without any regrets and gave up his seat.

“…this is a concession.”

Then Han Tae-san snorted.

“Girl, what a concession, you almost broke your head!”

During the Phaeton Raid on Jeju Island, Taesan Han proved that all of his predictions were wrong. But this time he was right. It was crazy to get tangled up with a level 142 warrior-type boss monster.

‘I’ll be crumpled if I get tangled up for a second.’

No matter how powerful you are than a typical warrior-type player, that’s a wall you can’t overcome. In the first place, there would be no flare that could fight that monster other than Han Tae-san.

Immediately after, Han Tae-san and Sumakt, the two In-young, got tangled in a parabola in the air.

He dodged the diagonally flying axe and kicked him in the stomach with a front kick.

Wow—billion——!

On hit, a sonic boom occurred in an instant, and Sumact’s body flew vertically and fell to the floor.

“ね—”

However, Taesan Han staggered as it landed on the floor. His ankles were turned at right angles.

He aligns his twisted ankle without touching it, then rests it on the floor and turns his ankle lightly.

“That kid… he’s a guy who arouses a desire for a challenge after a long time…”

“Han Tae-san, if possible, it would be better to use joint technique to deal with it.”

Lee Hyun-wook didn’t have the strength to get entangled with Sumac, but he had enough knowledge about close combat.

It is often said that if there is one technique that humans can use to subdue gorillas, it is called choke. That was the case now as well. Of course, the odds of even succeeding are extremely low… … .

“I know about that too, man, but do you have anything else to hide?”

Rather than being sarcastic, it was an expression of expectation from the bottom of my heart that if there was such a thing, I would get it out asap.

“Last time on Jeju Island, I just took out some kind of dog, huh? Not this time?”

“……”

“If you don’t have anything, don’t be mean, this time, you might really die…”

There was something like that, but I haven’t taken it out yet.

Then, Sumact got up and everyone was nervous.

“Everyone, take care.”

That monster narrows hundreds of meters at once just by kicking the floor in place.

Thump- Thump- Thump- Thump-

But from where he was, something like a heartbeat started to sound like an earthquake. And I could feel Nyung’s body expanding at first glance, and veins were wriggling like snakes all over his body.

“Damn it, it’s still hard like a dog, can you strengthen it one more time?”

Tae-san Han spit out a furious complaint.

He had just grasped his power with just one clash, and realized that he could not win at all. And since that’s a boss monster, there must be an additional ‘phase’ in the future… … .

“You know, you have to raid with a guy like that, not fight, right?”

“… … I don’t know, so don’t be nagging, I’m still annoyed.”

In that sense, it was impossible for even Taesan Han to hold Sumakt one-on-one.

No, in the first place, boss monsters were not designed to be captured alone.

‘Still, if Taesan Han tanks and others attack, we will be able to attack it somehow.’

But the problem was that there was not one boss monster in this place.

It’s not a “war event” for nothing. It meant that there was not one or two things to be concerned about.

Unsurprisingly, in the meantime, Dyable—the puppet was also preparing something.

Hyeon-wook Lee turned towards him, sneakily floating Mowglay in the air, crashing it.

But the moment he waved his hand, huge black hands erupted from the shadows beneath his feet.

Zeng! Zeng! Zeng!

And smashed the flying moglay as if it were pushed away.

It’s so easy to shake off that heavy thing, after all, a boss monster is a boss monster.

And then he ripped the beads off his neck, and the moment he swallowed one of them—

“Aww—!”

Red light bursts out of his mouth, and black smoke rises from his body.

– caution! An ancient voodoo begins in your area!

‘Are you still using that?’

Voodoo, to put it simply, was the necromancy that caused the undead. A death magic comparable to that of a Necromancer… … Of course, unlike the basic skill Necromancer, it required a huge price.

chamberlain-

big uh… … .

Dieble, who is a puppet, but still has the title of a boss monster, is terrified.

Then, a red light flashed from both eyes, and in an instant, it turned into a pile of ashes and disappeared.

And from within the ashes, a certain shadow shakes, and the body slowly rises.

– Demon Seeker (LV. ???)

‘It is a skill that sacrifices one’s life to turn the corpses around them into ghouls.’

It is a technique used by shamans who are fanatics who believe in the Old Gods when they are in a corner.

However, if the level of the boss monster was a shaman, the scale would be different.

Soon, the corpses of the Black Orcs that had hardened like fossils began to move while twisting their bodies.

Swipe – Swipe – Swipe

Even those who had been vigilant about being vigilant about Sumakt noticed the phenomenon and turned their heads.

“Hey, what the hell is that?”

Kyung-pyo Oh spit out a groan and stepped back.

At first glance, there was an unusual aura oozing out there.

Whew——!

“That’s… a ghoul!”

Ghoul, a high-ranking undead species, was a monster that was incomparable to zombies.

“What? That hundreds of them become ghouls at once, does that make sense?”

“So, it must be a boss monster. It’s crazy, really…”

And depending on what kind of being transforms into a ghoul, it exerts various powers.

But if that’s the best warrior monster, the Black Orc… … It’s a really tough adversary.

Whew——!

The screams that seemed to tear the eardrums resounded all at once, creating a bizarre resonance.

They began to crawl out of the pit, moving their blackened bodies.

And they started running like wild dogs with rabies.

quee— quee—

– Black Orc Ghoul (LV. 85)

A whopping 85 levels in one… … There are at least four hundred of them.

That was an offensive that could not be stopped by any means.

“… … We must retreat!”

Seoyoon Kang, who sensed this, shouted like a scream.

Then, a translucent fox tail flashed behind his back, and he poured arrows as much as he could.

Fur-bur-bur-bur—!

White fox fire gushed from where her arrow had landed, creating a whirlwind.

Next, Anyang Duo applied overlapping buffs to each other, and the shooter—Junseong Kang opened fire.

Ta-da-da-da-da–!

In the succession of that wide-area attack, the ghouls bounced back and forth.

However, even if their limbs were cut off, they did not stop running.

quee— quee—

… … There was no way to stop the advance of the Legion of Death, dominated solely by slaughter and appetite.

“Han Tae-san— you must avoid it right now!”

At her words, Han Tae-san, who seemed to run into Sumakt at any moment, turned around without vomiting.

“I feel like a dog today…”

He said so and glanced at Lee Hyun-wook.

However, Lee Hyun-wook did not show any change in his expression.

“You bastard… what else do you have?”

***

At the same time, a battle was taking place on Ganghwa Island. As the main battlefield suddenly moved to the middle of Seoul, both boss monsters were missing, so the aspect of the battle was greatly advantageous to the player.

“I don’t know what the heck he’s thinking. What should I do now?”

In the middle of the battlefield where all kinds of binge drinking came and went, a man lined up a bunch of musical instruments.

But his nerves seemed to be focused on something completely different from the battle in front of him.

“Lee Hyun-wook… I can’t understand how he escapes without taking the bait every time.”

He is a player named Yu Jun from the Chinese Guild, and participated in this battle.

However, it was a disguised status, and in fact, it belonged to the private organization “Amseong” of the Chinese Ministry of Public Security.

“Don’t worry too much, did you expect this operation to be a success?”

Next to him, a middle-aged man carrying a large crossbow said. He is also one of the secret agents of Amseong, and they were one of the male and female villains who were sent to assassinate Lee Hyun-wook in this war.

“Oh, you said that you made a big investment in this operation after you chatted with the Black Orc King?”

“Yeah, I’ve heard of a few things, but there’s honestly no chance that Lee Hyun-wook will stop them all.”

Although he clearly watched Lee Hyun-wook’s performance, he said with confidence.

This was a confidence that was difficult to harbor without a solid foundation.

“Um…what are you talking about? Is it the medicine of the god or the drink?”

“It is true that the drink of God, nectar, the old man handed it to me, but there are a few more.”

bang-!

They walked forward leisurely, dodging magical projectiles flying from nowhere.

“Hey, do you see them?”

From a distance, on a two-lane road in the half-crushed city center, knights in full white armor were moving forward. Above their heads, an airship called the Five Dragons was floating.

It was the most famous holy army ‘ROK AMT Holy Knights’ after Saint Dom’s ‘Wight Tree Guard’.

“As long as they’re all here, they won’t have the strength to deal with what’s going on there.”

“Ah! Now I understand. Voodoo, the dark magic of the Old Gods, are you talking about that?”

The Chinese players were well aware of the horrors of the magic that they experienced during the Shanghai Restoration War.

“Well, even if it’s a Styrene, it won’t be able to stop it.”

“Yeah, it won’t be possible to handle it with just a weapon enchanted with divine power.”

They laughed while walking leisurely through the battlefield with the Silence magic applied.

“So, in the end, we will face the end of being eaten by the undead.”

“Oh… that must be a good ending.”

“Oh, and the American Pit Bull brothers are also on standby just in case?”

***

quee— quee—

Hordes of black orc ghouls race down the road, shaking their limbs to the point of tearing their muscles.

“Damn, you’re so damn fast!”

A player close to a superman, even a ranker, could not be faster than a ghoul.

It was because they ignored the physical limitations and ran while destroying the body.

That’s why he was struggling to keep his distance, smashing away things that were approaching him.

At that time, AMT soldiers who were in cover scattered throughout the Seoul Station Square started supporting fire.

Damn it, don’t shoot in vain, everyone retreat quickly!”

Kang Seo-yoon, while running with all his might, took out a mana messenger and warned AMT.

But it seemed too late. They would eventually be swept away by the undead waves.

And unless you were a ranker, the raid of level 85 ghouls was an unbearable disaster.

‘If they scatter, some will survive.’

However… … .

“No, wait!”

It was Lee Hyun-wook who cried like that.

– Chic— Is there a way?

Colonel Kang-seok Kim asked from beyond the Mana Messenger.

“Yes! Now, prepare fire support!”

However, Lee Hyun-wook, like everyone else, was running away without looking back.

Even so, he poured steel weapons to check it, but it was literally just a check.

Unless there is a strong divine power, there is currently no way to retire them.

Of course, there are Shinsung players in the AMT unit at Seoul Station Square, but… … .

“No! You can’t catch that with simple firepower! It requires tremendous divine power!”

At Kang Seo-yoon’s questioning cry, Lee Hyun-wook nodded his head.

“Yes, there is.”

“… … what?”

He raised his head and looked up at Laputa.

“—Yeo Sang-min, it’s now!”

– Yes! Ready!

At that moment, the lower part of Laputa opened and a faint light flashed.

It was a that could teleport anywhere in Seoul at once. In other words, it meant that someone waiting in Laputa was coming down here. Soon, the beam of light fell on the Han River, right in front of them.

Whoa-ah-ah-ah-ah–

And from there, dozens of immortals walked out.

Scream— Scream—

What appeared in the sky were the paladins in gray armor.

From the center, a large man came forward and lifted the visor.

“Steelane, long time no see.”

Peter Clarke, was the head of the Wight Tree Guard.

“Peter, you’ve been waiting a long time. And thank you.”

At Lee Hyun-wook’s words, he pulled out his sword and lowered his visor.

“Last time we lost, but this time we will prove who we are.”

But walking out of the beam was not the end.

Scream— Scream—

Behind the 35 wight tree guards, huge armors lined up.

that… … It was Living Armor.

– You have secured the ‘master authority’ of Living Armor. (43/43)

To be precise, it was the divine armor that was enchanted with the blessing of St. Emilia Muller.

And at the center of it was Talos, a bronze watchman who was still full of divine power.

“(˘▾˘) Ah—somehow, it seems that my heart has become more reverent… … .”

Why———-!

Four holy chainsaws howled.

With this, the Necromancer’s death corps will one day collide,

The steel corps with divine power, a project to respond to it,

It was the moment the prototype was put into practice for the first time.
