〈Heroes of Seoul-1〉
=========================
Kwa—ang——!
While the bombardment sounded, Lee Hyun-wook stood tall with two feet.
The villains stared at it blankly.
“…….”
How the hell was he able to untie that thick rope,
And where the spear that pierced those two orcs like a skewer came out,
There were many questions, but now I couldn’t afford to worry about that.
It was because I felt that the man wasn’t normal.
“… … Damn it, declare the ring!”
At Choi Min-sung’s cry, a bald man wearing a leather jacket joined together.
Then a golden light burst out of his body,
A rectangular translucent box was formed in a 10m2 space around it.
Uh-!
-A’duel station leader’ is declared in the area.
* For 300 seconds, it is’disconnected’ with the outside.
“Ling, I declared.”
The duel force commander was a skill of the fighting group called “Ring”.
It was intended to “close” a certain space and beat the opponent while confining it.
On the other hand, Achilles’s spear from Hyun-wook Lee was stuck in the orc’s body outside the current space.
Lee Hyun-wook pulled it,
Tongue—
As expected, he couldn’t enter because he was blocked by the translucent duel station.
“Wow…… the hell was that window, fuck, where did you get it from?”
“Lee Hyun-wook was so kind that I was prepared to remove all the pieces of iron in my own way… … Still, you were hiding one of your spleens. Hahaha… … After all, he is a thorough person.”
“…….”
“By the way, that window……can’t take out more, right?”
Choi Min-seong still spoke confidently, but he did not approach Lee Hyun-wook anymore.
It was not ruled out that Lee Hyun-wook could be hiding something else.
Also, I noticed an abnormal phenomenon occurring in Lee Hyun-wook’s body.
The skin turned like an armor, and the energy surrounding it… … .
At first glance, I could see that it was not an ordinary defense skill.
“Ah? It’s not like I said with my mouth that my body was weak because I was in control… was it deceitful?”
Choi Min-sung wrapped his head with an expression of absurdity.
“But, no matter how much, you’re going to fight in this narrow place as a 4-1 on the subject of control?”
After that, all four villains pulled out their weapons.
When they were kidnapped, their weapons did not appear to have been collected, but none of them were metal.
“Hehehe-! The situation is getting more interesting?”
The first thing I ran into was Park Ji-hyun, a woman who seemed out of her mind.
She jumped over two of my colleagues and threw a dagger made of bones at Lee Hyun-wook.
“die-!”
The movement was incredibly fast, like hunting cats and animals.
By the way… … .
Gripping support——!
“Agyagyyagya!”
Wherever she flew, a sheer whip wrapped around her,
As it was, he fell and fell head to the ground, and then he fell all over his body.
“It’s 4 to 2! I have me too, you children—!”
It was Park Joon-mo.
His arms were still tied behind his back, but the current emanating from his palms drooped, moving like a long tail. Again, the sense of current control was increasing day by day.
“Damn! What are you doing? Kill it now!”
Choi Min-sung shouted so and fired a “magic missile”.
Shu shu shu shu——
Six projectiles flew toward Lee Hyun-wook and Park Jun-mo like guided missiles.
“this-!”
Park Jun-mo offset the two magic missiles by spreading the electric whip as wide as a net.
On the other hand, Lee Hyun-wook was just standing still.
T-the-the-Deng-
The magic missile hit, but disappeared as if evaporating around his body.
“What, what!”
It was because his whole body was covered with a thick’mana shield’.
Until now, it has been upgraded by absorbing’Orihalcon’.
At that time, a man with heavier hair ran up and raised a wooden club toward Lee Hyun-wook’s head.
“Fuck—stop this too!”
Dark red energy was circulating at the end.
‘It’s a weapon reinforcement skill.’
As long as it was applied, it was safe to say that it was not a simple wooden club, but a heavy mace.
Lee Hyun-wook focused on his left arm and raised his elbow and bumped into it.
Glad—billion—!
It was a club that broke with a bloody blow.
“Okay, I stopped it.”
“… … uh?”
He hesitated in embarrassment for an instant.
That was stupid.
As always, Lee Hyun-wook did not miss the gap.
His left foot flew toward his neck.
Bar—each—
A Brazilian kick with all the metal control, and his cervical spine crushed in that blow.
“This bastard is!”
Lee Hyun-wook turned around and prepared a “counter back kick” for a bald man who digs into his square. However, as if grasping the movement, it jumped back and fell.
“Who… Do you think you can do martial arts?”
He said that, as if recognizing Lee Hyun-wook’s melee combat skills, and raised both hands and guard.
“It’s been a long time since I have to hold a stance and fight, this? Suck!”
It momentarily narrows the distance, making two jabs of the front hand-left hand.
When Lee Hyun-wook took a step back, he struck a straight back hand-right hand.
However, Lee Hyun-wook did not avoid, and grabbed a fist that flew toward his face as if he was clenched.
chin-
“… … Oh, hold it?”
“No, I’m going to break it.”
“What?”
Quap!
“Ahhh!”
Indeed, the man’s fist was crushed like a boiled potato.
It was not visible, but it was because sharp thorns sprouted from inside Lee Hyun-wook’s palm. Lee Hyun-wook turned his wrist largely in that state and squeezed his fist more gruesomely.
Qwajiji!
“Take it off…….”
Lee Hyun-wook swung his right hand toward the unconscious guy.
Choo-ooh!
Sharp nails struck my neck and passed.
That was it.
It took less than 30 seconds for the two men to fall.
“Ah, ah…….”
Choi Jun-seong, who was preparing for the next magic while confronting Park Joon-mo, had an ecstatic expression.
Watching the short fight, he intuited that there was no odds.
Lee Hyun-wook approached him.
“Boundary occurrence object, where is it?”
“Fuck it, don’t tell me…….”
Before the end of the best answer, Lee Hyun-wook cut off the nape of his neck.
Half a beat, no, one beat was a quick cut.
“Off-?”
Maybe he was unexpected, too, and after making a ridiculous expression, he went forward.
‘An unnecessary haggling is not good.’
The reason was that the leader Joonsung Choi could have memorized the ‘Everyone Suicide Spell’.
Villan puts various’safety devices’ on the members of the organization to keep it secret.
Like the previous five butchers, it was a “potential spell” that burned the brain, and leaders such as Baek-jun Ki and Jun-seong Choi, who are loyal to the organization, have the right to cast such spells.
In other words, it meant that if you removed those guys first, you could interrogate their subordinates.
“Wow…….”
Park Ji-hyun, the woman Park Jun-mo had stunned, wriggled and groaned.
Lee Hyun-wook grabbed her neck and lifted it up.
“—Kek!”
“Get up your mind, only you are left.”
“… … Buy, save me!”
At the request, Lee Hyun-wook nodded.
“If you cooperate, of course I will save you.”
“Is that…… really?”
As I saw the rampage, the depth of thought seemed rather shallow.
In other words, it was a good figure to bake and boil.
“Yes, we are soldiers defending our country. We have no intention of committing unnecessary murder.
“Okay, okay, first of all, get rid of this hand…….”
Sometimes, a good lie was necessary.
If you are constrained by morality, you cannot beat villains outside of morality.
After a while, Lee Hyun-wook and Park Jun-mo opened all the prison doors and brought people out.
The number was well enough to see two hundred people.
“Okay, everyone shh— please stay calm and follow us.”
Park Jun-mo led them and gathered them in one place.
Most were panicked, but fortunately, no one was willing to behave.
‘Soon Kim Se-hee will lead the rescue team and arrive.’
In fact, Hyun-wook Lee had all the remaining troops on standby in addition to the 15 troops,
I ordered them to rush into the department store immediately after the air bombing was over.
This was a third plan that the Taesan Guild and other players did not know at all.
Lee Hyun-wook planned all this from before contacting the Taesan guild.
“Park Jun-mo, you are here to protect civilians and wait for the rescue team.”
“Yes, I understand!”
“And, those terrorists, do you know how many more are still there? Be careful.”
There were a total of 6 people who identified themselves as the Taesan Guild, and 4 people came here together, but the other 2 remained behind. And I found out that one person is pretending to be another guild, by interrogating Park Ji-hyun.
In other words, there were still three people to be punished.
“Oh, yes! I’ll be careful.”
“Then I destroy the barrier generator and go straight to the rooftop.”
“Yes! Take care!”
As expected, according to what I heard from Park Ji-hyun, the “altar” of the multi-ethnic black magic society was installed in the roof garden. In other words, the “boss monster” and the “erosion factor” were right there.
Lee Hyun-wook immediately entered the department store.
The view was secured to some extent thanks to the pale sunlight leaking from somewhere.
The interior that was thus revealed was so messy that the original appearance could not be recognized.
Tree roots were sprouted everywhere, and insects other than Earth were crawling around.
‘It looks like you’ve entered the crypt,’
At that time, three goblins with torches appeared at the end.
Queek! Queek!
They found Lee Hyun-wook and cried out and lifted a crude arrow.
But I couldn’t fire the arrow.
It was because the arrowhead moved backwards and stabbed me in the neck.
Lee Hyun-wook raped all of their iron weapons and moved forward.
But after them, there were no monsters blocking the front.
After the air bombing, when the offensive of the Steel Company began, it seemed that they were all rushing there.
‘It’s not very intelligent, and it’s a mix of different races.’
Boss Monster—Although under the control of a powerful high-ranking warlock,
As the low-intelligence races lived together, there was no proper system.
Therefore, when confusion occurs, it moves freely like this five minutes before the release.
And attacking that point was one of the raid methods of the Multiracial Horror Magic Society.
Thus, Lee Hyun-wook was able to reach his destination very easily.
-Machine room: No entry outside the person concerned
According to Park Ji-hyun’s testimony, there was a’barrier creation object’ right here.
Screaming
When I opened the door and entered, two large Orcs stood holding something like a sledgehammer.
Huh?
They seemed to be guards guarding the barrier-generating device.
The two snorted and blocked Lee Hyun-wook.
“Get out, I don’t have time.”
Of course, it would be a threat, and Lee Hyun-wook quickly knocked them down, and then searched the inside.
Soon, inside the intricate piping, I discovered a strange device that emitted a sapphire light.
Ooh-oh-oh-
‘This is it.’
There was a small sphere on top of a square black column.
And a bunch of red roots that came down from the ceiling stuck to it.
It seemed to be absorbing the energy emitted from this sphere and sending it to the rooftop.
Quad——!
Lee Hyun-wook grabbed the roots and pulled them off without any further troubles, and pulled out the whole device.
Kuggugu…….
At that moment, the entire building shook once.
It would be an ominous sign to some, but it was auspicious to Lee Hyun-wook.
‘It is the sound of the disappearance of barriers.’
-You have destroyed the’Magic Barrier Technique Maintenance Device’.
-You have acquired the’Dwarf Great Mountain Engine (Legendary)’.
The destruction message and the acquisition message appeared at the same time.
By the way… … The item was a whopping “legendary” grade.
“Hmm, by the way, I really didn’t know I’d get this here…….”
Lee Hyun-wook looked closely at a sphere named “Dwarf-made Great Mountain Engine”.
I tried destroying a number of’barrier creation objects’, but most of them were in the form of’mana crystals’.
In other words, it was just a kind of battery with refined mana like a mana stone.
By the way, it was a very delicate mechanical device designed and manufactured in’magic engineering’.
It was also a “infinite power unit” that was a waste to use in maintaining the barriers.
‘So it turns out that 〈Gate Sentinel〉 flew around with something like this, maybe?’
A super-large unfair gate sentinel called the sky aircraft carrier,
The giant monster flew between continents with three such engines.
Somewhere heard that it was actually a nuclear power plant-class power source… … .
Lee Hyun-wook gave it metal control with any chance.
Then, it slowly floated into the air.
‘It is a metal. if so… … Can you absorb it?’
It’s about 5cm in diameter, and if you open your mouth wide, it’s a bite away… … .
It was somewhat reluctant to swallow a nuclear power plant-level power source.
Anyway, it was absorbable when swallowed, as if it was sucked when trying to swallow.
If a warning message pops up, it’s an unabsorbable item, so it’s worth a try.
Lee Hyun-wook closed his eyes and put it in his mouth.
gulp-
All right, sucked in.
-Until the number of metal hops (unknown time) remains.
‘An unknown time… … .’
I’ve only seen a message like this once.
Lee Hyun-wook kicked his tongue, recalling that time.
‘I don’t know what will come out, but I think something a little scary will come out…’
It was a feeling of being stuffy inside.
Lee Hyun-wook headed upstairs, to the roof.
***
Meanwhile, the rooftop of a 20-story apartment overlooking the department store,
There were 14 shooter players waiting there, including Private Choi Tae-yong.
“Hey, who is that over there? I don’t think our people are…”
Someone said so, and everyone turned their heads towards it.
A vehicle liner appeared somewhere.
It was three K-1 53 armored search vehicles, seven military trucks, and a steel company.
The follow-up troops, which Lee Hyun-wook had excluded, were entering the department store, which was a scene that players who had never heard a single word about this could not understand.
“AMT, isn’t that your unit?”
“Ah……yes, that’s right.”
At one player’s question, Choi Tae-yong nodded.
Then, a voice mixed with resentment came from all over.
“What happened to that? You didn’t mention anything to us!”
“Just like that air bombardment, why are you fooling people who fight for their lives?”
“Steel Company, Steel Company, it’s rumored to be great, so we’re just going to use Kkakdugi?”
Choi Tae-yong shook his head with an embarrassing expression.
“Oh, that’s not it…… I’m good…… my commander will explain it later…….”
At that time, something happened that deserved their resentment.
“Uh uh……everyone look over there!”
The purple flurry surrounding the department store began to disappear rapidly.
“-done! The barrier is open!”
The shooter players cheered and raised their weapons.
Now that I was able to provide ‘sniping’ support as planned, it was time to concentrate.
“Okay, Let me pour the hustle and spread the bitch!”
By the time they each took their seats and prepared to shoot, the department store was properly revealed.
In the space where the original rooftop garden would have been, huge and bizarre trees were growing.
And a huge number of monsters were gathered all over the place.
“Fuck, there’s a lot of dirty…”
It seemed to be two hundred, and in the meantime, a 5m giant and troll were also mixed.
However, the most striking thing was a pile of black stones piled up in the middle.
It seemed to be a kind of “altar” where the warlocks offer offerings to evil spirits… … .
“Well, what is that?”
Gulluck— Gulluck—
On top of that, some lump was wriggling.
When I looked closely, the film and veins were tangled, like a placenta.
And in it, I could see at first glance something huge wriggling.
“Even if you look at that, something doesn’t feel good?”
“Something…… I think it will pop out soon.”
Players who have experienced numerous raids have intuition.
Such a phenomenon usually means that it is just before the appearance of a terrifying boss monster…
But that wasn’t all that was an ominous sign.
Something like “tentacles” protruding from the placenta was wriggling and sucking something.
And that’s… … It was a naked person.
“Ugh!”
Those people were now being offered as “sacrifices”.
The bodies of people who died from sucking body fluids were piled up on one side…
It seemed like there would be more than a hundred people.
“Such fuck…….”
The players felt a deep resentment from the deep inside.
“Damn, it’s a sniper and it’s Nabal, let’s go in right now and just wipe it out!”
The problem was that anger and fear came at the same time.
No one said the following words.
It was then.
“Uh, that person……what?”
The door to the rooftop opened, and only one person walked out from there.
***
The moment Lee Hyun-wook opens the rooftop door and comes out,
A magic drone passed over his head, dropping something.
chin-
It was a military backpack.
It contained Lee Hyun-wook’s armament and mana messenger.
With one gesture, he pulled out a weapon, equipped it, and turned on the mana messenger.
Wow!
He opened his mouth as he looked at the dozen monsters running toward him.
“Ah, this is the steel company commander.”
-Cheek— I can hear you well.
“Wizards, are you ready for operation?”
-Cheek— Ready, waiting for an order.
The secret operation, which had been prepared before encountering the Taesan Guild, was the last step.
Wow!
Lee Hyun-wook quietly closed his eyes without worrying about the monster group.
So, it detected the’command vehicle’ approaching right in front of the department store building,
A heavy giant sword on top of it, Mogley-pulled it.
When he opened his eyes, the monsters had reached right in front of him.
That moment-
Kwa-ang!
Mogley fell and hazy smoke soared, and the monsters were startled and stepped back.
Lee Hyun-wook grabbed Mogley’s sack with his left hand and lifted the mana messenger with his right hand.
And he gave only one order to the Steel Company.
“From now on… Open the sky.”
