Episode 150
The sky split apart.
Without any warning, numerous iron chains appeared between the gaping spaces.
– Phew!
“Kuaaaah!”
The chains shot out before they could react, piercing the hunters and binding their limbs.
Hunters screaming desperately.
Baek Sa-jun looked around.
“There are so many people here.”
There are hundreds of them here alone.
There can’t be just these guys. According to the information Iria has gathered, there are more than one or two warlords here. There must be more hunters somewhere else.
Baek Sa-jun clicked his tongue.
“You don’t know gratitude when you save those who were going to be eaten? Anyway, this is why you are called warlords.”
“Ship, Baek Sa-jun… Necromancer… …!”
“Yeah, I know that well.”
The chained hunter groaned.
Baek Sa-jun looked at him as if he were looking at an insect, and gestured to the undead beside him.
“But you were thinking of killing me.”
Right next to Baek Sa-jun.
An undead appeared through the thick snowstorm. Magnus, a lich with two horns.
The bastard stretched out his cane.
At the end of it all, a bitter cold air came.
– Kwarrrrrr!
“Eww!”
is finally shot out.
The spheres, filled with bitter cold, spun violently as they advanced, scattering shards of ice.
Countless fragments sharper than blades were fired, striking the hunters impaled in chains.
Hunters screaming and dying.
– Ss …
Magnus reached out.
Then, a whitish aura flowed out from the dead hunters and was dragged towards the guy.
– Magnus uses .
– Temporarily increases your morale by one level. The casting time of magic skills is greatly reduced.
Soul exploitation.
The souls of the dead were absorbed into Magnus, and soon became the nutrient that strengthened him.
A dark aura rose from Magnus.
– Ghhhhhhhhh!
And then the black magic unfolded.
The earth splits, countless eyes appear in the air, and black flames pour down from the sky.
The dark magic that unfolded one after another covered the hunters.
“Oh, no! Priest! Deploy the shield!”
Lee Si-kyung gave an urgent order.
But it was too late. The pouring black magic took the lives of the hunters. After that, a shield made of divine power was deployed, but it was already too late.
And then the undead began to move.
– Kwaaaaah!
– Hey hey hey!
“The undead are coming!”
Undead swarming from all directions.
Lee Si-kyung quickly looked around. All he could see were undead and necromancers.
Namgung Yeon was nowhere to be seen.
‘Is Namgung Yeon dead? Or… …!’
If you’re dead, you’ll need to find the equipment.
Whatever it was, the undead and necromancers in front of us had to be dealt with first. Lee Si-kyung stepped forward with the hunters by her side.
“Priests and paladins move with me!”
“Give rise to your divine power! Let’s go!”
The Pay Mercenary Corps has hunters of various classes. Lee Si-kyung brought knights and priests to prepare for the necromancer Baek Sa-jun.
Because the undead’s enemy is divine power.
-Whaaaaah!
I could see the holy power rising around the paladin and priest. I could also see the venom ghouls and bone spiders that touched them melting away.
It was the effect of divine power.
“Move from the Paladin! Light!”
The Paladins summoned stronger divine powers.
The divine power they emitted transformed into countless arrows of light, aimed at the undead.
“Burn those dead people!”
Arrows fired simultaneously.
Baek Sa-jun, who was watching the scene, snapped his fingers. Then, a group of undead came forward.
Lee Si-kyung frowned at the sight of those guys.
‘What the heck? Those undead… … .’
They are knights wearing old and broken heavy armor.
That in itself is not surprising, since it is common to see undead dressed like that.
Just one.
Except that their armor has a cross engraved on it.
– we are…….
– Deny… … .
.
These are the ones who were once Paladins who served God, but fell into corruption, were abandoned by God, and met death.
An evil aura spread from them.
– Dark Paladin uses . Undead are granted Divine Power Resistance.
An evil aura that permeates the undead.
At the same time, arrows of light struck the undead, followed by the priests casting divine magic.
The light burning the undead enveloped all directions.
but.
– Card grab!
“What, what is this… …!”
“The undead can block divine power?!”
The moment the light was about to reach the undead, an unclean energy rose up like a barrier and blocked it.
Of course, it wasn’t completely blocked.
The divine power that could not be blocked burned the bodies of the undead. But that meant nothing.
– Saaaaah!
The dark paladins radiated dark aura.
The energy healed the undead that had been damaged by the divine power. Melted bones were instantly restored, and burning flesh was instantly regenerated.
As if it were a healing magic created by divine power.
“Wh, what… … .”
“Hey, what is that?”
The hunters of the Pay Mercenary Corps doubted their eyes.
The same goes for Lee Si-kyung. The undead can block divine power and even recover the damage.
Is that even possible?
If possible.
‘High-ranking undead.’
This is only possible if you become an undead like the boss monsters that appear in dungeons.
Lee Si-kyung bit her lip as if she was anxious.
‘I expected there to be strong undead.’
A necromancer capable of overcoming the apocalypse.
I expected that much. But I didn’t expect to deal with undead that could block divine power.
Lee Si-kyung looked around urgently.
‘The situation is not good. There is no way out… … .’
If Namgung Yeon and Baek Sa-jun are dead, find their bodies. If they are alive but injured, kill them.
Either both or I step down.
‘I need to lure the other warlords.’
There are many warlords gathered in the permafrost.
After luring them and causing chaos, the Pay mercenary group escapes from here. Lee Si-kyung takes out the horn flute that was on her waist.
And the moment you try to call it.
– Kururur!
“What, what again!”
The ground began to shake.
The ground shook as if an earthquake had occurred. Suddenly, many trees sprang up from it.
All of the trees opened their eyes at once, pulled their roots out of the ground, and began to move.
Lee Si-kyung knew what it was.
“Spirit! It’s a spirit!”
“Sir, no way!”
The hunters turned their heads.
Someone appeared through the swirling snowstorm. It was beyond description who it was.
Ten Heroes, Grand Spirit Master.
“I’ve heard of the infamy of Jeju Island’s warlords.”
Namgung Yeon.
The Great Spirit Master, who had recovered his health after resting, looked back at the hunters with an angry face.
“You’re so trash that you don’t even know grace. You… don’t even think about surviving here.”
The spirits surrounded the hunters.
And before I could even come to my senses, the undead, including his followers, began to charge.
“Hey, Sister! What should I do!”
“The spirits and undead are coming!”
“This, this is profit… … !”
Lee Si-kyung gritted her teeth.
I looked around and tried to think of a way to leave this place, but nothing came to mind.
There is only one thing you can do.
“Kill them all! Clear the road… …!”
– Taaang!
Just fighting.
Just then, a gunshot rang out. And before I could react, three bullets flew in.
The magic bullets that instantly attack Lee Si-kyung.
“Ahhhhhhh!”
Flames and explosions engulfed all around.
And the incinerator bullet burned away Lee Si-kyung’s magical power, rendering her unable to respond.
Lee Si-kyung collapsed with her whole body burned.
“Hey, sister!”
“Hey, the enemies are coming!”
The spirits and undead began to attack.
The hunters who lost their leader, Lee Si-kyung, fought desperately, but the ending was too obvious.
There is no need to say anything.
* * *
How long has it been since then?
“Take it, ugh… … .”
The last hunter was buried in the snowfield.
Baek Sa-jun looked around.
“Is this the end?”
I saw countless corpses strewn about.
They were the corpses of the warlords, including the Pay mercenary group. At first, there were only the mercenary group, but as the warlords who heard the commotion came rushing in, the number increased.
“Keep him alive. He’ll be useful.”
– Ugh… … .
The leader of the Pay mercenary group, Lee Si-kyung, was kept alive.
This guy probably has quite a few magic stones. We need to keep him alive for now and find out where the magic stones are.
It’s okay to kill them later.
“Oh, really. I know the world is like this, but I didn’t know it would be this unscrupulous.”
“Why are you bringing this up all of a sudden?”
Namgung Yeon clicked his tongue as he looked at the corpses.
After finally dealing with the predator, it won’t be grateful and will attack you for your items.
They were amazing guys.
“You just woke up, how can you be so wild? If you collapse again, I won’t know.”
“This much is okay. It’s not like I’m a Gaiad.”
“Then that’s fortunate.”
It’s hard to summon a spirit king like Gaiad, but it seems that he’s recovered enough to easily summon a higher-level spirit.
Namgung Yeon let out a sigh.
“Were there this many warlords in Jeju Island?”
“Yes. There must have been a lot of them before you lost consciousness. I heard that there have been more of them recently.”
“I said I had a lot of magic stones.”
“Yes, because there are many magic stone mines.”
“That’s right… … .”
Namgung Yeon was lost in thought.
Magic Stone. This is an item that is especially useful to the spirit master. He originally had many magic stones, but he lost most of them because of the Ice Spirit King.
There is a need to replenish magic stones.
“I need to clear out some of the warlords. I need a lot of magic stones to restore Gaiad.”
“Let’s do that. There was quite a bit of damage from the predators, so it shouldn’t be too hard to clean up.”
Baek Sa-jun looked down at the fallen Lee Si-kyung.
“I’ll take care of the Pay Mercenaries.”
“Then, I guess our relationship ends here.”
Namgung Yeon regained consciousness and recovered his health. The predator that Baek Sa-jun had targeted was also dead.
There was no reason for the two to be together any longer.
“Baek Sa-jun, I owe you a lot. It’s not enough to help me deal with the predators.”
Namgung Yeon threw something at Baek Sa-jun.
It was a stone that emitted a mysterious light. The moment I touched it, I felt a warm energy seeping into me.
“It’s a gift from Gaiad. It will help you when you need it. Using my magic.”
“I will use it well.”
“Okay. Let’s meet again when we get the chance.”
Namgung Yeon looked at Baek Sa-jun’s face.
“I think we’ll meet soon enough, you know.”
He is no ordinary hunter.
Regardless of his class as a necromancer or his strength, Baek Sa-jun’s movements and actions were like that.
This was especially true when fighting predators.
‘Was there a vacancy in the Ten Girls?’
I had a feeling that maybe that spot would be filled before long.
Namgung Yeon turned his back.
And I tried to leave just like that.
“Oh, I forgot. Let me ask you one thing.”
Baek Sa-jun caught him.
“I asked you something before, didn’t I?”
“What, who did you lose to? That?”
“yes.”
Namgung Yeon’s expression became strange.
His expression was a mixture of bitterness, anger, and shame. He let out a sigh that came from his lower abdomen.
And slowly, reluctantly, he opened his mouth.
“Ryu Seong-cheon.”
It’s a familiar name.
Baek Sa-jun frowned.
“He’s one of the ten heroes of Seoul. He’s the head of a guild called Frontier. Well, there was a reason why they started fighting.”
Namgung Yeon scratched his head.
“I don’t think that needs to be said. Anyway, be careful when you go to Seoul. Ryu Seong-cheon, that guy… … .”
A blizzard raged.
Namgung Yeon started walking.
“He’s a guy you can’t trust.”
Namgung Yeon’s new model disappeared into the snowstorm.
Baek Sa-jun, who was watching that, let out a breath.
‘I wondered who it was. It was Ryu Seong-cheon.’
It’s a name that Baek Sa-jun can’t help but know.
It can’t be helped.
‘The guy who corrupted Lee Hyuk-woon in the original work.’
The main villain who destroyed Lee Hyuk-woon’s spirit and led him to become a member of the Apocalypse.
That’s because it was Ryu Seong-cheon.
