God’s Natural Enemy Returns Episode 169
108. White Night
thud.
The sun disk in Shihyeon’s halo burned even more powerfully.
The joining station was filled with light.
Cheon Yuri, Jongcheon, Arthur, and Brittany escaped safely with the Gorgon’s head.
There was no need to worry about anyone getting involved.
Whoa whoa… … .
A purple night with a curtain of night falling.
In the middle of it all, a solar disk appeared.
The purple darkness combined with the strong sunlight created a bright background.
[Item, ‘Kibisis (A)’ has opened a total of 100 eyes.]
[Magic increases by 500.]
[Activates the special effect of the item, ‘Kibisis (A)’.]
… …
[100 Eyes: begins.]
Kugugugugugugugugugugugu… … .
Magic began to seethe around Sihyeon’s body and surrounding area.
Flash!
Starting from above Sihyeon’s head, 100 eyes began to brighten the night sky.
And each of those eyes had the six stars from Solomon’s ring engraved in it.
It wasn’t just Solomon’s ring that was fused with the pupil.
Each of Kibisis’s eyes was fused with corrupted glory, and each had three to five tentacles moving.
Crackle… … .
Hera’s eye, Baalzebub’s tentacle, Nyx’s night, Solomon’s sextile, Ra’s sun.
Even Zeus’s thunderbolt seeps into every corner and creates sparks.
A world and a barrier created by the combined effects of the divine items possessed by Sihyeon.
White Night.
That was the moment it was revealed.
***
“It’s a beginning.”
Jongcheon, who saw that sight, looked at the group.
When the White Nights begin, there’s the Gorgon’s head, the station, the quest, and everything else.
Because Sihyeon told me to definitely run away.
Now was the time to get out of the way.
Thump thump.
‘Powerful.’
Jongcheon’s heart, which had maintained its composure even when encountering a mythical monster like Stheno, began to beat.
The magic and power that was incomparable to that of the stupidly moving Stheno.
A new world.
It was so overwhelming that I wanted to try out all my strength right away.
Now was the time to cherish life.
“Arthur, So-hyeop. Can you move now?”
“Sorry. I’m so exhausted I can’t move.”
“Then I will support you a little more.”
“I will open the way.”
“Please, Miss Cheon.”
Whether or not the Iron Snakes block the road.
The four human players took cover along the tracks.
“Aren’t you going?”
“… … I have to go.”
It was a shame that I couldn’t see the results.
Because I didn’t know what I would get into if I stayed here.
Cosio had no choice but to take the stone people and escape to the change station.
‘Lee Si-Hyeon… … was hiding his power. I thought he only used a divine beast and a special sword.’
Gulp.
‘That guy… … is a usurper of God.’
An order that the dwarves gave only to the ‘station master’ and not to other stonemen.
It’s time to do it.
***
Paaaaat!
The first thing that catches the eye of Medusa, who has released the stone chain she had placed on herself.
It was ‘destruction’.
[What is this…?]
Destruction unfolding in the white night.
The 99 eyes floating in the sky used their tentacles to tear apart and swallow all the iron snakes.
Kibisis’ 100 eye special effects, .
Now, each of Kibisis’s eyes has its own individual ‘self’.
According to the orders of the vision and each person’s judgment, they use the magic, tentacles, the power of control contained in Solomon’s ring, and astrape to destroy the enemy.
Whoosh whoosh!
That wasn’t the end of it.
The blood of the opponents absorbed by the fallen glory strengthened the Heavenly Sword, and the heat, energy, and magic power strengthened the Sun Disc.
That is, the iron snakes led by Medusa and the other two headless Gorgons.
It was already becoming a ‘material’ that strengthened Sihyeon.
[This… this… this is?]
Medusa’s body trembled.
Before the dwarves take over and turn you into a mere tool.
She had a similar experience.
‘Perseus… Perseus… Perseus!’
King of Mycenae, son of Zeus, natural demigod and hero.
Perseus (Περσεύς).
The character who killed Medusa using Hades’ helmet, Hermes’ sickle and sandals, Hera’s kibisis, and Athena’s shield.
Now a high-level god, he has become so powerful that Medusa cannot even swing her blade at him.
Sihyeon’s appearance reminded him of him.
‘Now that I think about it, that pocket… … .’
Although it showed much more powerful functions than what Perseus had used.
It was certain.
The identity of that pocket is Kibisis.
It was the sack that Perseus put his own head in after cutting it off.
‘but…….’
Even though Medusa’s skin had already become as hard as diamond.
Looking at the situation, my will to fight was completely broken.
‘That’s… that’s something I can never beat.’
The current opponent’s strength was greater than Perseus’.
It was unbelievable.
Perseus trained for over ten years to handle the items of the gods.
Yet, unable to look straight into her own eyes, she relied on the mirror attached to Athena’s shield, the Aegis.
But this person, Lee Si-Hyeon, was different.
Of course, it handles more items than Perseus.
The usability was on a whole other level.
Perseus simply used the god’s weapon for its intended purpose.
Sihyeon was linking and mixing the items of the gods to unleash even more powerful power.
‘That’s not all. I don’t know what trick he used, but the divine items that fell into his hands gained more diverse and powerful abilities.’
Gulp.
‘More than the original!’
If you think about the level of ‘disaster’ that humans on Earth are facing right now.
It hasn’t even been two years since they became players.
Gulp.
‘You think you’re more talented than a demigod who starts off strong with half the blood of a god? You have to cheat to a certain extent!’
Now Medusa could no longer see her opponent as a ‘human’.
That man is a king and an enemy.
As long as the other sisters and Iron Snakes die, it will provide strength to the guy.
There was absolutely no way I could win.
‘The one good thing is that he doesn’t know my power.’
The opponent was on guard against himself.
‘Now is the time!’
[Kiyaaaaaaaah!]
Medusa roared at the vision that was looking at her.
But her most powerful curse, petrification, didn’t work.
Instead, tens of thousands of thorns sprouted from Medusa’s mouth.
Tsuzujeok.
From Sihyeon’s perspective, there was no reason for him to be hit by those thorns.
He simply stepped back and left the place.
And Medusa took advantage of that gap.
Whirilirilirik.
I ran away with all my might.
No matter how hard your skin has become.
I couldn’t win against that human right now.
It would have been more realistic to avoid the situation and plan for the future.
***
“……what?”
Sihyeon, momentarily flustered, looked at Medusa’s back.
‘Running away? That Medusa?’
According to the myth, Medusa committed adultery with Poseidon in Athena’s temple.
A ferocious being that blows up the heads of God’s beloved heroes right in front of their faces.
Looking at how he dealt with the red elves, it didn’t seem like the content was wrong.
But why did you run away so desperately?
This was an unexpected situation even for Sihyeon.
Of course, I had no intention of letting him go.
I also needed Medusa’s head.
Because I had to catch those guys to get the quest reward from Cosio.
Boom… … !
Sihyeon stomped her feet.
The sun moved around him, and the white nights moved.
“Mehen.”
-Okay, human.
Mehen also served as Shihyeon’s adjutant, relaying his orders to the pupils.
He was usually a complaining and nit-picking guy.
In such a serious situation, I listened carefully to what Si-Hyeon said.
-Eyes! Leave Iron Snake alone and pressure Medusa. Numbers 2 to 12, the front, and number 13… … .
With Mehen’s instructions.
The eyes, each with their own ego, pressed Medusa with their tentacles.
Medusa’s speed was faster than any demon that Shihyeon had encountered since her return.
Her older sister, Euryale, was not as agile, did not have the power of flight, and was very tired.
Medusa didn’t last long before her body was wrapped around the tentacles of the vision.
[Oh, no!]
I never thought that destruction would move.
Medusa’s complexion turned pale.
“You told me to fight fair and square. Why are you running away?”
[… … .]
Medusa realized that her opponent had no intention of letting her live anyway.
He roared at Sihyeon once again.
[Kiyaaaaaaa!]
Just like last time, tens of thousands of thorns rushed towards Sihyeon.
[Activate .]
Sihyeon swings the Thousand Sword Sword to strike out the thorns and dodge.
He ran towards Medusa.
So Medusa’s fist and the Heavenly Sword collided.
Kaaaaaaaaaang!
There was a loud noise that felt like my cochlea was going to burst.
Everything around was engulfed in shock waves.
No matter how strong Sihyeon becomes.
Medusa is a ruler and queen of a different level than her two older sisters.
The only being among the Gorgons to have the status of a ‘mid-level’ god.
It wasn’t an easy decision.
Kang! Kang! Kang! Kang!
Medusa’s two fists and Shihyeon’s Heavenly Sword clashed chaotically.
Medusa’s tough skin was able to withstand the attack of the Heavenly Sword.
The problem was that one of the special effects of the Thousand-Handled Sword was that it penetrated (ignored) 40% of physical and magical resistance.
Crunch… … Crunch!
That is, no matter how hard Medusa’s skin becomes to increase her physical resistance.
It was inevitable that he would receive some level of damage from the Cheonjongun Sword.
Medusa was able to block the Heavenly Sword to some extent by moving both hands busily.
That’s it.
Time was on Sihyeon’s side.
Even though my body should recover quickly, it is recovering slowly.
The golden lightning that flowed out from Sihyeon’s entire body entered Medusa’s wound.
‘shit……!’
On the other hand, Sihyeon is leisurely blocking Medusa’s attacks and counterattacking.
Sihyeon can inflict fatal injuries on her opponents just by touching them.
Medusa could only fend off the attacks with all her might.
‘Again… …I can’t die to a human again!’
Medusa, who was thus cornered, prepared one last move.
‘If you use this number, you will be put into forced hibernation for 100 days.’
Ugh.
‘It’s better than dying.’
Medusa’s entire body was cracked as if it would split apart at any moment.
When more than half of the snake on your head is dead.
[Kiyaaaaaaa!]
Medusa’s body began to petrify once again.
Medusa’s skill, ‘Self-Petrification (S)’.
You will be unable to move for several minutes, but during that time, your physical and magical resistance will increase by a whopping 999,000.
It is virtually invincible.
When you break out of the shell in this state, you will receive different benefits and corresponding disadvantages depending on the special effect that Medusa activates.
The special effect chosen by Medusa this time is .
It lasted for a very short time, one hour, but there was a huge disadvantage of being forcibly petrified for 100 years afterward.
As long as the special effect lasts, you can use the other two Gorgon sisters’ powers, Stheno’s strength, and Euryale’s agility and wings.
There was a crazy benefit that all vitality and magic power was restored.
[It’s over!]
Paaaaang!
A shockwave radiated out around Medusa.
[Activates skill, ‘Self-Petrification (S)’.]
At the moment when he was about to enter self-petrification after pushing Si-hyeon away like that.
Flash!
The hundred eyes in the white night flashed simultaneously and looked at Medusa.
‘What is this?’
I got goosebumps when I met their gazes that were all focused on me.
And at the same time.
The magical power flowing through Medusa’s body began to twist.
[Kuaaaah!]
Kibisis’s 20 eye special effect, .
Thanks to this, Medusa’s self-petrification was delayed.
[Item, ‘Astrape (A)’ is infused.]
[A bloody storm gathers around the item, ‘Cheon Gun Ungeom (C)’.]
[Item, ‘Sun Disc (C)’ is infused.]
The three attributes of lightning, wind, and fire gather in Shihyeon’s Cheonjongun Sword.
Crunch.
A solid line was drawn across Medusa’s neck.
Medusa was unable to move as self-petrification was about to occur.
A solid line was drawn across her neck.
[human being…….]
“good.”
Bam.
Medusa’s head fell to the ground.
