Returner of the Colosseum - Chapter 84



＜ Episode 84. Two people who look alike (8) ＞

Instantly, a tremendous light emanated from the demon with the sound of air bursting.

It was as if a flash of light had passed by.

aaa!

A tremendous roar that hit the eardrums followed.

A terrifying thunderbolt swept through all directions.

‘Thunderbolt!’

A cold sweat ran down his back.

It was a sensation that I had experienced once before, so it was a shame that I quickly dodged back.

―Keuhehehe, that’s great, really great! To have these abilities!

It was so powerful that even the devil burst into laughter.

‘thank god.’

I could guess.

If it hadn’t been for the signal from my super senses, I would never have been able to avoid that attack.

‘My prediction was correct.’

So far, the super sense has sent only two signals.

When the thunderbolt explodes from my alter ego.

just now.

The two situations had only one thing in common.

‘That it was triggered when receiving an attack equivalent to instant death.’

It seems that the hypothesis that the super sense sends a signal in a situation where it is possible to die instantly is correct.

This was incredibly valuable information.

because.

It meant that I no longer had to take the risk of a thunderbolt.

‘I’ll do my best to harass you.’

Of course, you can’t be sure with only two.

Since the thunderclap had just exploded, it would be safe for the time being, even with a probability.

Kwajijijijijijijik!

I began to attack the devil more aggressively.

[Victory condition 1: Defeat the demon summoned in Eden]

[Time limit: 01:16:27]

It was in the middle of a boring battle.

Of course, it’s boring only to me, and from the devil’s point of view, it’s maddening with anger.

– Heo-eok, heo-eok. this f*cking bastard. Huck, as much as you are, Heo Eok, I’ll have to kill him somehow. Huh Eok.

Because of the thunder’s breath, he was quickly exhausted.

Of course, it wasn’t just him.

[Remaining HP: 26%]

My stamina has already hit rock bottom for a long time.

‘Whoa. It’s not long.’

It looks like I can finish him off with just a little more push, but the problem is that I can’t rule out the possibility that I’ll be able to break through.

Kochiu and Kiara are also top players.

They wouldn’t die easily just because I was pierced, but if the devil accidentally duplicated the skills of the two people, I couldn’t tell what direction this battle would take.

That’s why I had to block it somehow as long as it was heading towards Kiara or Kochiu.

“Teruomi-sama!”

“Tell me!”

“Hold on for a second!”

Teruomi ran right after my words.

“Hey, thank you!”

Seeing that he reliably blocked the demon, I quickly ran to the rear.

The situation where the bloody enhancement perks are also ending.

He planned to slaughter the soldiers, replenish his stamina, and reactivate the bloody enhancement privilege.

Kwajijijijijik!

“Knight! The demon is coming again!”

“sh*t! Everyone don’t back down! Concentrate on pushing with your shield as before!”

As I passed Kiara and Kochiu and rushed at the soldiers, the enemy soldiers raised their shields.

The possibility of soldiers who can’t even properly handle magical powers blocking my spear with their shields.

There was none.

Awesome!

Tring! Tring! Tring! Tring! Tring!

[Your HP is recovered by 1% with ＜Recovery of Blood＞ ability.]

[Your HP is recovered by 1% with ＜Recovery of Blood＞ ability.]

[Your HP is recovered by 1% with ＜Recovery of Blood＞ ability.]

[Recovers 1% of HP with ＜Recovery of Blood＞ ability.]

Each time he swung his spear, his body quickly began to lighten.

Breathing, which had been panting as if about to collapse at any moment, was stabilized, and the racing heartbeat regained its original shape.

‘Whoa. I’ll live a little longer.’

The quick recovery made me feel a sense of joy without even realizing it.

Tring!

[＜Blood Reinforcement＞ duration has ended.]

[Stats raised by ＜Enhancement of Blood＞ are reset.]

From noble mtl dot com

Just in time, the bloody enhancement benefit ended, and the stats were drastically cut.

At the same time, the stack piled up at a rapid rate.

‘Since I’ve recovered roughly, I guess I’ll just have to turn on the bloody enhancement perks and switch over again.’

It was when he was slaughtering soldiers with such thoughts.

“Keugh!”

Teruomi’s groans came from behind.

I glanced back.

Teruomi was overwhelmingly being pushed back.

└Wow hahahaha Teruomi can’t even last a minute when Ren blocked it by himself for nearly 30 minutes hahahahaha

└I don’t think the level difference between Teruomi and Ren is that great, but why are the results so different?

└ No, rather, it feels like the devil got stronger as soon as the opponent changed hahahaha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

└ Both Ren and Teruomi have good fundamentals, so their defense is excellent. Instead, Teruomi simply blocks well, and Ren counters depending on the opponent’s style and eats and enters. That’s why Ren endured well, and Teruomi was overwhelmingly pushed back.

└In short, Teruomi’s style is monotonous, but Ren’s style is very diverse, right?

└ Just that one thing makes such a difference?

└ If Rendo is matched with the devil, it’s a development forest ㅇㅇ But it’s possible because it comes out in a reverse style that suppresses the opponent’s strengths as much as possible and attacks their weaknesses hehehe

└ I want to see the team’s fighting spirit training system.

Tring!

[Your HP is recovered by 1% with ＜Recovery of Blood＞ ability.]

[All stats increase by 1% with ＜Blood Reinforcement＞ ability. (30/30)]

[You have reached the end of the stats that can be raised with ＜Enhancement of Blood＞.]

[Stats increased by ＜Enhancement of Blood＞ are maintained for 30 minutes.]

After activating the enhanced blood perk with only six spears, I went right into the demon.

“Teruomi-sama! Shift again!”

“Oh, thank you.”

Fortunately, Teruomi came out and touched the baton right before she collapsed, so no misfortune occurred when the demon was directed at Kiara and Kochiu.

‘thank god.’

From Teruomi’s point of view, it would not have been easy to stop the demon.

Because I have super senses and a magic field, I can know how Kochiu and Kiara are covered, but Teruomi can’t do that.

Of course, even so, I didn’t know that it would collapse in an instant like this.

―Heo Eok, you are always a stumbling block. I could have finished it with just a little more.

When I started holding back again with the point of the spear pointed, the demon growled.

‘This time it won’t be to the level of interfering.’

I just harassed him by diligently moving, ignoring his words.

And the more I push on.

A look of bewilderment crept across the boy’s face.

[Remaining HP: 87%]

The moment I turned on the enhanced blood perk again, this battle was over in the first place.

―Heo-eok, hee-go, it can’t be like this. Apparently, just a moment ago, heck, I was on the verge of collapsing, but how!

It must have been much more lively than before.

On the other hand, the demon’s movement slowed significantly after a certain point.

Demon’s health range, falls below 10%.

The burnout of life has begun.

visor! Chae Chaeng! visor! visor!

―This time, heo-eok. is it yours! why! Why do you keep coming at every important moment, cool.

The demon blocking my spear started vomiting blood.

There were various emotions in the crying guy’s voice.

hooked!

I completely ignored him and just swung a spear at him.

Tring!

[＜Thunderbolt＞ is activated.]

The thunderbolt triggered just in time.

In an instant, a tremendous thunderbolt spread out in all directions.

Whee-ae-ae-ae-ae-aek!

The trajectory of the spear I swung became a flash of light.

What is the possibility of a demon with exhausted health avoiding that terrifying attack?

aaa!

There was none.

Tring!

[You have killed player ‘Helifer’.]

[Victory condition 1: Defeat the demon summoned in Eden]

[Time limit: 00:59:16]

[You have achieved victory condition 1!]

the whole body explodes

The demon’s head, with its shallow horns, rolled on the floor.

A notification call that appears as soon as you defeat him.

‘after.’

I let out a sigh that I had been holding back.

With this, the Time Attack mission is over.

Kairosia was also sent to a safe place.

all that’s left now

[Victory condition 2: Defeat all members of the Dark Church that summoned the devil]

[Remaining members: 193,666]

From noble mtl dot com

Just killing all those 200,000 creatures.

There was no such thing as guilt for the massacre.

If the system tells you to kill.

i just kill

“Oh, how can it be! A messenger sent by God!”

“no!”

After defeating the demons, Kiara and Kochiu immediately began slaughtering nearby soldiers.

In the first place, Teruomi alone blocked them.

Since it was done with four people, it wasn’t long before he was able to turn that many soldiers into corpses.

“You worked hard, Ren-nim!”

“You fend off that monster all by yourself!”

“It was a skill worthy of being called a name.”

As the surroundings fell into a lull, Kochiu, Kiara, and Teruomi approached in admiration.

At their words, I just nodded lightly.

“The three of you have worked hard too.”

“Haa, that wasn’t easy.”

Kiara breathes lightly.

He must have used a lot of mana, so his complexion was not good.

Kochiu continued shooting arrows, and blood was oozing from his fingertips.

Teruomi, who blocked the soldiers from the rear, also looked quite tired.

“I suffer a little more. If you are tired, you can take a break outside Eden for a while.”

“Ren, will you continue? You did the most.”

I shook my head at Kiara, who was looking at me with a worried expression.

“I still have to hold on. I will move right away, so from now on, act separately.”

“all right. If you go south of Eden, there’s a lake, right? I’ll make that a safety zone. If you need a break after fighting, you can come over there.”

“yes. then.”

Having roughly decided on a meeting place with Kiara, I headed straight for Eden’s inner sanctuary.

Unlike other matches, there was no one to threaten me, and the time was ample.

Opportunities like this are rare, so there were things to take care of.

‘I need a lot of gold to run a city-state like this.’

What I had to do in this situation was clear.

Right away, to take the gold piled up here.

The gold I had earned from selling black herbs was also running out, but I wasn’t going to miss this opportunity.

‘Because it’s a church state, they probably piled it up in the Vatican.’

For players, these missions were like bonus stages.

It was a very good situation to collect items and gold.

Bodies strewn all over the road, buildings swaying with blue flames.

And even the bloody smell that pierces the tip of the nose.

‘It must have been a fierce battle.’

It was full of traces of battles unfolded by lower players everywhere.

“Heretic!”

“The devil goes to the inside! Come on, get reinforcements!”

Kwajijijijijik!

I immediately cut down the soldiers who were putting out the fire or collecting corpses in front of the gate leading to the castle and headed straight to the Vatican.

Finding the Holy See was not difficult.

It was only natural that the largest building in the castle would be used as the Vatican.

‘Where do you want to be?’

After entering the Vatican, I began to search the rooms one by one, killing all creatures that rushed at me.

Like a huge city with nearly 300,000 residents, the size of the Vatican was also grand.

“this guy! How dare you set foot in a sacred place on a pagan subject!”

“Sir Harold is being healed inside! We must stop him here!”

The proportion of black knights increased as they went further inward.

It was when I was checking the rooms one by one while killing them.

When I entered the far left room from the lobby on the first floor, I opened my eyes wide.

‘uh?’

“uh?”

There was a familiar face in the room he entered while killing the soldiers.

As soon as he saw me, he stood up and tried to pick up the sword lying on the bedside table.

Udang-dang-dang-tang!

Thanks to moving one step faster, I was able to stomp him to the floor.

“Long time no see, Harold.”

“Keugh. sh*t! The guy I desperately wanted to kill must be in this situation!”

This guy was Harold, the paladin I met in the promotion match.

I put my knee on the guy’s back and pressed him down.

Then he asked, breaking his fingers one by one.

Poududeuk!

“I have a question. Where is the gold you earned from running this city?”

“Keuk! Do you think I will tell you that!”

Poududeuk!

“Where is the gold?”

“Quaaagh!”

Harold stubbornly refused to answer and shut his mouth, but it didn’t matter.

Poududeuk!

I’m going to open my mouth anyway.

“It’s difficult to think that it’s the end after I break this finger. After I break all my fingers, I’ll cut them off one by one. Oh, and I have 10 of them on my feet. Then I’ll pluck out your eyes, then I’ll break your nose. And joints one by one, one by one…”

Poududeuk!

“Quaaagh!”

“I’m going to smash it. How are you willing to talk?”

“Two! Go ahead and kill me!”

Harold spat bloody spittle at me.

“······good. I won’t bother asking from now on, if you want to talk.”

I took the pain amplification potion from my inventory.

“Creep. Cool, cool.”

Then he poured it into the boy’s mouth and continued his work.

Deud deude deuk!

“Turn it off!”

“Tell me anytime.”

From then on, I proceeded one by one in the order I told the black knight.

Break all your fingers and toes.

cut it out

And it was time to break the joints one by one.

“Hey, wait…!”

Harold opened his mouth screaming in tears.

Poududeuk!

My hands didn’t stop.

“Ouch! Now wait! talk! I’ll talk…”

Poududeuk!

“Keuk! Stand, temple! If you look at the floor of the temple, you will find a way down to the basement…”

Red light flowed from Harold, who answered that it was a temple.

Seeing that, I smiled and bent my knees at 90 degrees.

Deud deude deuk!

where are you lying

“aaagh! I told you! But why!”

Poududeuk!

“Ouch! Four, four floors of the Archbishop’s Office! If you flip the bookshelf in the archbishop’s classroom, you’ll find it! really! My, please stop!”

The red light didn’t come out this time.

‘It’ll come out like that.’

As long as I had the evil eye, lies didn’t work for me.

Harold’s voice has completely disappeared from screaming loudly.

After killing him cleanly by beating his head, I immediately went up to the 4th floor of the Vatican.

There were five rooms on the fourth floor, but the one in the middle was the largest, so it seemed to be the Archbishop’s classroom.

‘I told you to flip the bookshelf.’

Entering the archbishop’s classroom, I pushed the bookshelf attached to one side of the wall.

And that was when I opened the small door hidden behind it.

“…!”

For a moment, I doubted my eyes.

there.

With a huge amount of gold that is enormous even at a glance.

‘Why is that… why is it here?’

Items that look high-grade at a glance.

and.

‘It’s definitely an item that should be in the Pandemonium…!’

glowing blue.

There was a piece of mask.
