A Spy’s Demonic Life - Chapter 107
Only Krnovel
107.
Doo doo doo doo!
A vibration of unknown origin. I looked back in confusion and saw a yellow dust storm rising like a high tidal wave.
“What? It hasn’t even been two hours yet!”
“This can’t be happening… … ?”
When Mao shouted in confusion, Gwa-ping tilted his head as if he couldn’t understand. He had never been out of time before.
Moreover, the more I looked around, the stranger it became. If it was a sandstorm, it should have been coming from all sides, not from behind like that.
But… … .
“no way.”
Jang-seo and So-oh simultaneously lay down on the floor and raised their spirits.
Doo doo doo doo-!
The vibration is less noticeable because it is sand, but it is definitely felt.
The two men lay face to face with serious faces, then suddenly stood up and shouted at the same time.
“Jump!”
“Jump!”
And finally, the identity of the sandstorm is revealed.
Doo doo doo doo doo!
[Don’t miss a single one!]
Heeeeeeeeeing!
It was a cavalry unit that broke through even the sandstorm along with the Six Combat Battles.
That’s a giant armored demon corps with a body so large that it can even ignore the sand!
The strongest mobility within the Demonic Cult, capable of breaking through even the heavy snowfall of the North Sea, has appeared.
And of course, at the forefront are… … .
『Great Burst Spear Technique, Form 9: Great Burst Wave』
Kwakwakwakwakwang!
One who slashes the black spear and explodes the ground in all directions like a fountain.
An overwhelming divine being clad in iron armor and riding a black horse!
There was a third elder, Maeng Cheol-yong.
*
‘shit!’
What should I call this now? As I see it, from about 30 meters away, red lines like tree roots spread out into the ground in thousands of branches, and then, bang bang bang! They exploded one after another from the starting point and shot out in this direction.
The scorched earth began with just one strike.
All he did was jump up on his horse, land with a thud, and stab the ground with his black spear.
Strictly speaking, the tip of the spear did not even touch the ground. The magical energy that was emitted dug into the ground and exploded the earth.
‘This is the skill of the third elder, who is said to be one of the top ten in the Demonic Cult. He is truly incredible.’
Thanks to this, Jang-seo was able to use brainwashing techniques without any hesitation.
There are many eyes watching, but now is not the time to be picky about cold rice and hot rice.
‘If we continue like this, we will all die.’
The moment the pure magic energy changed into brain energy, Jang Yiseo’s new form shot out like lightning. Then, it instantly snatched Mao, who was standing in the range of the explosion.
“Eww!”
Then, he pushed and saved Gwa-pyeong, who was standing there with his mouth open in bewilderment.
Kwakwakwakwang!
And the sound of explosions enveloping the surroundings.
“Are you okay?”
Jang Seo asks Gwa Pyeong while reaching out his hand through the sand falling like rain. Then, when he looks around, there is no other chaos.
The place where the blow passed was left in ruins.
The ground was cracked as if from a drought, and the abundant sand was scattered and blown away in all directions.
It’s amazing that this happened in just one day.
Even the word ‘Gyeongcheondongji’ is not enough.
Of course, from Gwa-pyeong’s perspective, who didn’t know much about the martial arts world, Jang Yi-seo was also incredibly impressive.
‘What the hell are these guys? They’re going to save us like lightning. They’re going to blow up the earth. Is that possible?’
I felt both fear and gratitude at the same time. I swallowed hard and stood up, holding his hand.
Damn, you’re creating more debt right before you’re about to pay off your life debt.
“Be careful. This is no ordinary opponent.”
“Uh, what.”
Jang Yi-seo patted Gwa-pyeong on the shoulder and looked ahead again.
A monster looking this way while riding on a great black horse. I see Maeng Cheol-yong.
As soon as he raises his hand, dozens of armored demon corpses stand in a line on either side of him, ready to rush forward.
‘Myo Chae-kyung… … . I never thought you’d drag even the three elders into it. Don’t you have even an ounce of conscience?’
Jang-i bit her lips tightly.
The majesty of the Mengapguima-dae, which felt like dark clouds, was so intimidating that just looking at it was enough to make one feel intimidated.
Even the overwhelming size of a horse, about three times that of a pony, from head to saddle and even hooves. It is an iron horse covered in the highest grade of iron armor.
Even while wearing that heavy thing, he had to use his enormous strength and endurance to get through the desert where his movements were restricted.
To this extent, it is bound to be amazing.
If you fight blindly, you will lose every battle.
“Hey, Assistant Jang. Isn’t it too much for you to not save me? I waited for you.”
I would have avoided it first while waiting. So-oh approached with a blackened appearance. Mao and Gwa-pyeong also stood next to him.
and.
[Catch him!]
With the Six Combat Battles of the Three Elders.
Doo doo doo doo doo!
Once again, the blind devils began to run fiercely.
“Jump!”
The group also turned around and started running towards Guryongseong.
The distance to Kowloon Fortress is now about seventy zhang (210m).
[Don’t miss it-!]
Behind them, the sound of the Three Elders’ Six Combat Battle continued, and in the time it took for them to catch their breath, the Meng Gap Gwi Ma-dae had already chased them all the way behind.
Jang-seo quickly assessed the situation.
‘The entrance to the castle is on the floor.’
I understand why Gwapyeong said that it would be over once he entered the castle.
The tower stood there, completely blocked off, like a piece of scrap metal, with a large iron door wide open on the ground farther down.
In simple terms, this means that you have to go through the underground passage through the door on the floor to reach the real door to enter Kowloon Castle.
So when that iron gate closes and the sandstorm covers the top, you can’t get in.
The problem is.
‘At this rate, we’ll be caught before we even get halfway there. We have to buy some time.’
But by what means?
A dark shadow fell over Jang Il-seo’s face.
Considering the time remaining, I should have held out for at least one more hour.
Even the Three Elders are masters of a high level who I can never beat with my current skills.
It is absurd to think that you have to block both him and the Meng Gap Gwi Ma Dae at the same time.
of course…….
I’m not saying that we won’t do it.
Pot!
Jang I-seo, who was running, spun around like a top and struck the head of the iron horse that had chased him up to his nose.
Phaaaak!
“Heeeeeeeeeing!”
The vanguard fell to the ground with their horses. Immediately, Jang-seo leaped sideways like lightning and mounted on the back of another cavalryman.
“Oh, no!”
The confused cavalryman looks back and forth. Even if he finds one, there is nothing he can do.
“Eww!”
Jang-seo grabbed the back of the horse’s neck and threw it backwards. Bam! He collided with another cavalryman who was pursuing him, and they both fell down at the same time. Jang-seo immediately sat down on the saddle, grabbed the reins, and tightened his leg around the horse’s waist.
Heeeeeeling!
Originally, it was a difficult iron horse to handle unless it had a master, but now the battlefield was filled with tension. The iron horse galloped at full speed without even recognizing its new master.
He then extended his right hand toward the other cavalryman riding ahead.
『White Thunder』
Flash! Then a black bolt of lightning shot out and pierced the cavalryman’s back! Instant death.
“Over-estimation!”
When Jang Yi-seo shouted, Gwa-pyeong looked around urgently and jumped onto the lost horse.
Done. Success.
Jang Yi-seo immediately retrieved the white thunderbolt, rode his horse, and took down another cavalryman.
If you pretend, you pretend.
This time, Soo quickly climbs on and even lets Mao ride on his back.
Even though we may not be as good at horsemanship as our enemies, we can still reach Kowloon Castle safely if we just buy a little more time.
‘after…….’
That was the moment when Jang Seo let out a sigh of relief and looked back.
puck!
With a terrible noise that felt like skin was bursting, wadangtang!
“Huh!”
The horse he was riding fell down helplessly and rolled on the ground.
Jang I-seo, who barely escaped serious injury by performing a fall technique, knelt on one knee and looked around while covered in dirt.
And then I realized.
The iron horse he was riding was nowhere to be found, and only the horse’s hide was scattered like shattered pieces.
And in front of me.
“The Three Elders… … .”
An absolute master who looks down at himself indifferently while blocking the sun.
The master of the Manga clan and the third elder of the Demonic Cult.
The Divine Spear Demon, Maeng Cheol-yong.
He was there.
*
While Jang Yi-seo was looking up at him, Maeng Cheol-yong, looking down at him, was very surprised in many ways, contrary to his appearance.
‘It’s you.’
Jang-seo. Even without asking who he was, he intuitively felt that he was the person he was looking for.
The Seven Princes’ assistant, a bastard.
A half-talented person who was only a 7th-grade demon.
The value that Maeng Cheol-yong remembered from looking at the register was just that. A piece of trash that could be thrown away at any time. A lowly person wearing unsuitable silk. Nothing more, nothing less.
But how could I not be furious when I heard that my son was kidnapped and fell for such a lowly guy?
however.
‘This guy… … is for real.’
Maeng Cheol-yong is a top-tier powerhouse, not only in the Demonic Cult but also in the entire Central Plains.
There was no way that he would not recognize Jang Yi-seo’s true value even after seeing his divine power.
Quick judgment of the situation and the skills to match.
And even those eyes that dare to think about the next move without wavering even when placed in front of you.
Everything was telling me that Jang Seo was real.
This is not a lucky assistant, but a strong person worthy of a third-class ghost.
It was from then on.
I started to feel that something was wrong.
“Nice to meet you. I am your assistant.”
Maeng Cheol-yong calmed down his anger and asked in a heavy voice.
“How old are you?”
Hmm? Jang Yiseo narrowed his eyes.
Is it a custom of the Demonic Cult to ask someone’s age first when greeting them?
Instead of answering, Jang Yi-seo swallowed and glanced around. He was already surrounded by the demon hordes on all sides, but fortunately, the group had managed to escape. Now, all he had to do was take care of himself…
Papapapat!
“Ugh!”
It was at that very moment. For a moment, a sharp energy shot out like an arrow around the space between my eyes.
When I looked down into the ground, I saw ten deep holes like a bottomless pit.
Maeng Cheol-yong unleashed the second form, the Ten Light Wave, in that short period of time. If he had been targeted, he would have already died with holes all over his body.
There is only one choice you can make now.
“I’m twenty-eight.”
Jang Yiseo answered politely with a friendly smile. It meant that he wanted to be friends. It was a wise way for a spy to behave.
However, unfortunately, Maeng Cheol-yong was not Ji Dae-ho.
“That is your age (age at death).”
Conversation ended.
Crunch!
Maeng Cheol-yong twists the spear and turns it.
Hmph! Jang Yi-seo could tell what kind of martial arts this was just by looking at the shape of his hand. It was the very same technique that Maeng Hui had been practicing tirelessly in the Chilsogung.
『Great Splitting Spear Technique, Form 1: Wind Dragon Wave』
Hwaaaaah!
The moment he pulled the spear back, a huge whirlwind began to swirl around the spear.
‘The moment it touches the wind, it is torn to pieces beyond recognition.’
A very aggressive martial art that is difficult to block because of its strong rotational force. Jang Yi-seo’s head spins around as if it were on fire.
‘The moment you spread it, you can’t change direction midway, and the wind only moves towards the point it was shot at. So… … if you dodge in advance, you can survive.’
The Wind Dragon faction has already witnessed this herbivore on several occasions.
If you have a head like Jang Seo, it’s not difficult to identify the characteristics, even if it’s not to the extent of destruction.
The moment it unfolds. Just capture that moment.
And that is… …now!
