Episode 327. Before the gate opens 11 hours (2)
The 11th floor of the basement of the Korea Awakened Association.
The rankers of each guild who accepted the request from Han Sang-jin gathered together.
âItâs been a while since Iâve seen these members all at once.â
Jinhyuk looked around.
Most of the hundreds of players are faces youâve often seen on TV or in the Crucible Tower community.
I saw Yoo Yeon-hwa and Lee Tae-min, as well as Min Jeong-woo and Lee Yu-ri.
Besides that, a large number of masters and sub-masters, who could be called the signboards of the guild, had participated.
âBrother. Itâs been a while.â
âHow have you been, oppa? Did you finish your job at Moorim?â
Lee Tae-min and Yoo Yeon-hwa approached with bright smiles.
âYes. Thanks. What did I ask for?â
The soul stone of longing received from Vendivia and the moon crystal obtained through the information of the Heavenly Demon.
In order to deal with Shub Niguras, one of the conditions that must be dealt with was entrusted to the two.
âYeah. Of course it was finished neatly.â
âI had a bit of a hard time doing what my brother said, but my sister and I handled it well. Probably, thereâs nothing wrong with it working.â
good.
Taemin, who has the machine lord ability, said it, so there should be no problem.
At least one condition was met with this.
It was then.
boom boom!
âHey. Look at that. Can you see it?â
âI am a player Kang Jin-hyeok.â
âI-I really am.â
âIt was all I saw in the video because I only went to the very difficult stairs, but I never thought I would see it in real life.â
Everyoneâs eyes were focused on Jinhyuk.
In fact, if you were to be the strongest player representing Koreaâ¦
the answer was fixed.
When Chun Yoo-seong, wearing a long sword, joined in, exclamation burst out again among the people.
âThereâs also a swordsmanâ¦â
âShh! Be quiet. Rumor has it that if they donât like it, they will mercilessly cut it down. Perhaps the nickname âSword Demonâ is more widely known than âSword Saintâ?â
âGuild masters are slowly paying attention. The real sense of intimidation is no joke.â
It is not for nothing that they say that the history of the Goinmul Corporation led by Jinhyeok is greater than that of all large guilds put together.
Just standing with Jinhyeok and Chun Yuseong seemed to overwhelm the rest.
âHey. They say youâre a murderer with no blood or tears?â
âDonât talk about your true feelings. I didnât say that.â
âUmm. Is that so? Anyway, what should I eat for dinner? I think Iâm getting tired of combat rations. Do you have any recommendations?â
âDamn it. Do I have to tell you all about what I eat? Pick up sea anemones that live in the deep sea and eat them. If you get food poisoning and die, thereâs nothing better.â
Jinhyeok and Chun Yuseong quarreled as always.
Of course,
it was being reinterpreted in a completely different way from the point of view of the people who used the bean pods as they were used.
-It seems like everyone sees you and calls you a swordsman. Is it reassuring just being together?
-Do not exalt. I donât like such cumbersome titles very much.
-Itâs like you too. This raid is on the sea, but would you like seafood for dinner?
-The taste of monsters that live in the deep sea is said to be delicacies, but it wouldnât be bad to catch and eat them. If Iâm with you, Iâll be able to hunt boss level enough.
It was a time when everyone was just staring at each other without speaking.
âhello.â
Someone boldly stepped forward.
A woman in her late 20s with short bobbed hair.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âThis is Yoo Jin-ah, vice-master of the Fighting Fathers Guild. This is the first time Iâve personally greeted the two of you.â
2nd in Korea. âFather to fight.â
Eugene is one of the two pillars that support the huge collective of about 1,000 people.
Unlike master Choi Jin-ho, who only focuses on hunting instead of external activities. Jinah Yoo was also good at administration and politics.
In fact, the fact that Jinhyeok cleared the 17th and 18th floors while he was in Moorim was thanks to Jinah Yoo organically linking large guilds to form an allied raid.
âNice to meet you. My name is Kang Jin-hyeok.â
âItâs natural.â
âThe president of the association asked you to give a general briefing to the two of you. Iâll explain how this raid will go from now on.â
Tring!
A map made of holograms appeared in front of everyone.
A total of four raiding parties will be deployed in Korea.
The goal is to enter the east, west, south, and north of the island and remove the etheric ore in the center.
With less than 10 hours remaining before the gate was fully opened, it was necessary to increase the probability of success even by distributing power.
âThe Dangun guild has decided to take charge of the east, and the Balhae and Hwarang guilds have decided to take charge of the south. A raid group of 7 medium-sized guilds is planning to rush into the west.â
Jinah Yoo pointed out each map on the map and continued her explanation.
A number of magic reactions were marked on the map, but the point with the greatest reaction was located at the northern end.
Considering that the size of the dot is equal to the amount of magic power, there must be a monster that is 5 times more powerful than anywhere else.
âIt seems that the most difficult part is the part I have to take on.â
âYes. Itâs going to be a union between the Goinmul Corporation and the Guild of the Fathers to Fight. To be precise, weâre assisting player Kang Jin-hyeok.â
âI see what you mean.â
Jinhyuk nodded.
âThen, Iâll start moving through space soon. Itâs such a large-scale magic that you may get motion sickness, so please be careful about that in advance.â
When Yu Jin-ah nodded, the other guilds also sent a hand signal that preparations were complete.
Parts Tsutsu!
Various runes drawn on the floor shone brightly.
soon
My eyesight was blackened.
ï¼ï¼ï¼
The darkened vision has returned.
Arrive at the islandâ¦
âBlood, blood!â
It was an illusion to think I did.
Someone yelled at me to break my throat.
at the same time.
âOohhh!â
The giant ichthyosaurâs mouth opened beneath his feet.
âWhat, what?â
âAaaagh!â
The place where the attacking party arrived was not on an island, but on the sea.
Hundreds of razor-sharp teeth were exposed through the rolling blue waves.
If it stays like this, it will be eaten.
âEveryone stay still!â
[Jinah Yoo activates Lv20 âMentra Tamingâ!]
Ugh!
The ichthyosaurâs pupils shook with the bright light.
But it was only for a short while.
Quack!
The huge mouth closed like a lie.
Thanks to this, players can avoid seeing what the ichthyosaurâs camouflage looks like.
âThank you.â
âIâm alive thanks to you.â
Tankers in heavy armor let out a sigh of relief.
If it hadnât been for Yoo Jin-ah, she would have been drowned in the sea, unable to overcome the weight of her armor.
While the raid group, which was about to be wiped out in an instant, is breathing.
âTaming abilityâ¦â
Jinhyeok looked at Yoo Jin-ah as if he was interested.
Taming is one of the rare abilities among unique abilities.
Seeing that he was able to tame a high-ranking monster like a fish dragon in a matter of seconds, he must have been quite skilled.
Iâll take this opportunity to copy that ability as well.
I donât know about sweet potatoes or spirit beasts, but the hooded crane that recently opened a business still knew that Ji was a noble dragon.
âRather than that, where the hell is this place?â
âCould it be that the island has sunk in the meantime?â
The players riding on the backs of ichthyosaurs that were tens of meters tall looked around.
Visibility was not good because of sea fog.
âAh! There! I see an island over there!â
Lee Tae-min, who was searching through a drone, pointed in one direction.
About a kilometer away, the outline of the island, the original destination, was blurred.
The island is not gone.
Itâs just that the distance is quite far.
âWhy did you stray so far from your destination?â
Yoo Jin-ah urged the magic players.
âIt seems that the spatial movement coordinates are distorted. Obviously, the mana was properly injected and activatedâ¦â â
It seems that something interfered. We are not sure why. Sorry.â
The players in charge of space movement lowered their heads as if they didnât know why.
But just then
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
The waves began to roar violently.
The players on top of the ichthyosaur staggered greatly.
something comes
from the depths of the sea.
âKang Jin-hyuk!â
âI know.â
Chun Yoo-seong pulled out the Hwamu Maehwa Sword. Jinhyeok also took out a fang and a double dragon sword from the subspace.
âKoooooo!â
âKuaaa!â
In an instant, dozens of ichthyosaurs soared to the surface.
Even the ichthyosaurs that Yujinah had tamed did not go down anywhere in terms of size⦠but
the ichthyosaurs that appeared now were even larger than that.
âThirteen in total.â
An island that appeared as a result of the Outbreak.
It was a known fact that the area was also being converted into a dungeon.
However, I would have thought that named-class monsters would be swarming from the beginning.
âLooks like he played more than I thought.â
The cause is a senior manager behind the scenes. Hastings.
Jinhyuk wet his lips with his tongue.
âI-I canât tame all of these many things.â
Yu Jin-ahâs expression was stained with despair.
The rest of the players also saw the approaching ichthyosaurs and their faces turned white.
Even if it was normal land, fighting while balancing on the back of an ichthyosaur was a disadvantage in itself.
âTaemin.â
âYes. Brother!â
[Lee Tae-min activates his unique ability âMachine Lordâ!]
Two drones with streamlined bodies appeared.
âIâll take care of seven. Can you take care of about six?â
âIâll cut down twelve of them, so you only deal with one.â
Chun Yoo-seong stepped on the drone first and took a big leap.
Then, the drone predicted the next landing spot for Cheon Yoo-seong and flew there first.
Anyway, one pride is the strongest in the universe.
Took.
Took⦠Chun Yoo
-seong, who freely crossed the air, swung his sword.
The first sword in the post-wedding sword dance.
Awesome!
The sword that raised the sword blade cut off the scales of the ichthyosaur in one fell swoop.
âKoooooo!â
The battle began in earnest as the sea turned red.
âShould I warm up my body properly?â
[Inherited ability âGrave of Swordsâ is activated!]
Black energy shimmered along the fangs.
[Inherited ability âHeavenly Devilâ is activated!]
Red energy burned along the twin dragon swords.
ï¼ï¼ï¼
âThree, my Godâ¦â
Yoo Jin-ah swallowed dry saliva.
Iâve already seen countless times through videos about how strong my opponent is. came in
but.
There was a gap that could never be touched between what was experienced indirectly and what was seen directly in front of the eyes.
strong.
overwhelmingly.
âChun Yoo-seong, who presses down one-sidedly, is also amazing.â
A figure that is not intimidated in the slightest against an ichthyosaur that is over 20m tall.
My heart was pounding just by looking at the chaotic yet straightforward swordsmanship.
However,
compared to Jinhyeok, that level was nothing more than a joke.
âI canât believe that such a beautiful swordsmanship exists.â
Even Yoo Jin-ah, who was ignorant of swordsmanship because she was mainly taming, couldnât help but feel it.
that it is completely different.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
Every time the two swords moved,
the body accelerated through the âRealm of Windâ and âSword Demon Cheonryungboâ disappeared like smoke.
Speed that doesnât even require a drone.
The sight of them disappearing in succession in the sky even gave the illusion that they were spreading Blink.
chuck.
Jinhyuk climbed on top of another ichthyosaur and crossed his hands.
The sword strike drew a crescent moon.
âKeeeeeee!â
The ichthyosaur screamed in pain.
A thick cloud of blood spurted out, turning everything red.
But when drops of blood splattered everywhere. Jinhyeok had already disappeared from the spot.
six⦠seven. heat.
The ichthyosaurs died without a proper counterattack.
And finally.
with a plop!
Even the ichthyosaur, which struggled until the end, rose to the surface.
âAfter arriving on the island, there will be more annoying people. Then, please do your part on the side of the father to fight.â
âYes?⦠Yes? Yes! Yes, thatâs how it should be.â
Yoo Jin-ah, who had been blankly, nodded quickly.
