Chapter 25 - Savior

“Fuck!”

Muhyuk bit his tongue and crawled to the bed. He then reached out to the first aid tools. He picked up a large syringe full of white sponge grains.

At that time, the living-dead man, who looked inside with an iron door bar, shouted.

“Darn it! Put that down!”

Clink!

The guard quickly grabbed a long knife, opened the iron door, and ran in. His body drooped and hurled a sword at Muhyuk, who was barely holding a syringe.

Whoo!

At the moment the blade fell, Muhyuk, who had been stumbling, approached him at an alarming speed.

“Huh?”

Bang!

Muhyuk blew the dead man’s jaw with the long muscle of his palm.

“Gasp!”

The dead man was hit on the chin and fell out at once. Watching it, Muhyuk put his syringe on the wound.

“Whoo!”

Then he took a deep breath and pushed the large syringe’s rolling pin.

Wosh!

Sponge grains poured out of the blunt syringe hole with a small burst of pressure.

Grains poured into the blood-flowing wound, and in one gulp, the wound was closing up.

“Ahhhh!”

At the same time, when the sponge grains expanded mercilessly, Muhyuk had no choice but to struggle in agony.

Tsuss…!

However, the process was painful, but the bleeding seemed to stop.

“Gasp…….”

Then Muhyuk took off his bloody coat and sprayed hemostatic agent on the wound, and this time, he took off the remaining bandages and tied the injured side tightly.

Then he broke the bandage with his teeth and began to grab the dead man by the collar and slapped him.

“Ahh…….” “Where’s Lee Soo-ah?” “Huh, huh?”

Muhyuk’s face was filled with anger, and the dead man trembled.

“The offering has been moved to the altar……!”

Boom!

“Gasp!”

At that remark, Muhyuk crushed the dead man’s face with his fist.

“Don’t lie. The ceremony begins at dawn.”

The dead man who lost his front teeth with one punch was upset.

“Well, I heard that the monarch told me to hurry up with the offer……! That’s why the offerings were transferred!” “…….”

Muhyuk bit his lips.

“…The giants must have crawled out, too.” “Captain, you’re going to let me live, right?”

The dead man, who was grabbed by the collar, pleaded desperately. This dead man reported Muhyuk to Kim Oh-sung, even though Muhyuk prevented his cadets from dying.

“…….”

At that moment, Muhyuk carefully grabbed the dead man’s head with both hands. And just answered.

“I can’t trust the dead.” “Wa, wait…”

Snap!

He snapped the dead man’s neck at once and died.

Flop, thump…….

He muttered and left the body of the living-dead and reached under the bed.

“…….”

Muhyuk was holding a mana cell in his hand and left the prison room.

In the heart of Malek’s dungeon on the abyss of the dead. There is a large speculative field.

But at the center of the speculative field is not an open space. A bronze statue, which was emitting a pale blue-green light, rose.

This statue burst starting the head of a cow to the upper body of a human while its arms were stretched toward the sky. The huge upper body had dozens of bronze bins of sufficient size for a person to fit into.

On the platform right in front of the altar, Kim Oh-sung, dressed as a clean priest, was standing and giving a speech.

“Today we are finally on the start of a great journey to bring our masters back to earth. After the years of humiliation of being persecuted and hiding by humans, the day has come before our master comes to save us! And the redemption will begin with offerings from this last midnight banquet!”

Whoosh!

At the priest’s declaration marking the beginning of the ceremony, all the dead in the amphitheater began to burst into cheers.

Dung, dung, dung, dung……!

Then the masters gathered on the side of the Colosseum began beating the giant drum in a constant rhythm.

Srrr…!

Then an iron door opened inside the Colosseum, and today’s offerings were being dragged out with their hands tied together.

Whoo! Whoo!

Thousands of living-dead began booing at the sacrifices being pushed to the stadium. Around sixty sacrifices were all cadets.

And then. The doors to the inner stadium began to open.

Srr…

The chain lifted the iron door. A black giant, who is 3 meters tall and skinny, appeared. The giant stood in front of the sacrifices and began looking down at them.

The cadets were even more devastated by the advent of the overpowering monster.

“Oh, my God…….” “I don’t want to die…….”

Beep beep…….

And this time, a flute played.

A colorful box appeared through a large entrance door. On top of it was Lee Soo-ah in a dress.

Four living-dead men wearing cow masks with their jackets on their shoulders moved slowly. Lee Soo-ah sat silently in a golden chair with her head down.

After a while, the box in front of the altar touched the ground, and Lee Soo-ah got off.

Clap! Clap! Clap!

The dead cheered for Lee Soo-ah’s appearance. It was because Lee Soo-ah was an important sacrifice to call their savior.

Clap! Clap! Clap!

They couldn’t stop screaming. Lee Soo-ah, who was pushed back, started climbing the podium, which was connected to the head of a bronze statue.

Kugugugu…

Suddenly, the bull’s head of the bronze statue started to move with the sound of breaking iron. The cow, frowning, looked exactly at Lee Soo-ah.

Whoosh…!

Flames then burned around the base of the bronze statue. The bronze-white statue began to heat up red from the bottom.

Rattle, rattle, rattle!

Dozens of crates on the statue’s chest were then shaken. It seemed as if it was desperate to devour the sacrifices right away.

Kigigigigigig……!

The bronze statue stretched out toward her, lowering his arms very slowly. At the sight, Lee Soo-ah moaned, closing her eyes tightly.

“Gasp……!”

As soon as Lee Soo-ah was about to be grabbed.

Cooguk!

The big hand held the air instead of Lee Soo-ah. Just before Lee Soo-ah was caught in his hand, a man quickly landed on the floor holding Lee Soo-ah in his arms.

“Oh, mister……?”

It was Muhyuk. Lee Soo-ah, who was held in Muhyuk’s arms, looked up at him with surprised eyes.

Whoo! Whoo!

All the dead in the Colosseum booed at the sight once again.

The priest laughed loudly as if he knew that was going to happen.

“Hahaha! You stupid man, you’ve come all the way here!” “…….”

Muhyuk again held a pair of daggers. But his hands holding the daggers were shaking like crazy. Muhyuk thought.

“If I can kill the priest, everything is over.”

As he collected himself, he glanced back. Lee Soo-ah was standing there.

At the sight, Muhyuk looked forward and muttered.

‘I don’t care if I die.’

It was the moment Muhyuk, who made up his mind, ran toward the priest.

Boom!

Something like a black pillar blocked him in an instant. It was a taker, a giant of 3 meters.

Muhyuk didn’t slow down his running speed, because he knew it would happen.

“I’m going to smash its joints at once.”‘

Boom!

Muhyuk dodged the huge fist of omens. He poked the wasp knife into Taker’s knee.

Crack!

Then, he tore the flesh and the blade was half-stuck.

Clank!

The wasp knife exploded.

Whoosh!

A fierce flame burst out from the knife end of the wasp knife. It was a special weapon of destruction from the inside.

But…….

Tsuss…!

Obviously, even though the flames exploded from the inside, only smoke rose from the giant’s chest.

And.

Boom!

On the Taker’s forearm, Muhyuk bounced off and rolled the floor.

“Gasp!”

Muhyuk tried to get up again, but he couldn’t. It was just a slap on the wrist, but his main joint was broken.

The priest rejoiced at the struggle.

“Hahahaha! What are you doing? You can’t even touch the master’s giants with a toy like that!”

As the priest’s laughter continued, all the living-dead in the Colosseum laughed along.

“Fucking hell…….”

Muhyuk eventually despaired of his helplessness.

By saving Lee Soo-ah. He wanted to save himself.

When everyone in the world calls themselves monsters. Only Lee Soo-ah smiled brightly.

But Muhyuk. He just wanted to see that smiling face for a long time.

“……Help……me….”

Muhyuk muttered in a dying ceremony.

“Please…….”

He spoke in a voice that no one could hear.

Hahaha….! Hahaha…

Muhyuk’s voice was only buried in the laughter of the living-dead who filled the speculative arena. Everyone who once praised Muhyuk as a captain pointed fingers at him and was delighted to see his downfall.

Muhyuk accepted the laughter in vain. Perhaps this is the natural end of the killing.

The blood of many has been buried in his hands. And he knew that the end of the blood-stained man could never be good.

But……. But Lee Soo-ah was not like him.

Lee Soo-ah has never done anything wrong to anyone, she has only suffered. And she was a good girl who laughed sincerely even at the trash who killed people and grieved at the pain.

“So……please…….”

A deep sigh came out of Muhyuk’s mouth.

“Save Lee Soo-ah…….”

Thud……….

The black giant looked down with a blank look on its face. The image was declared by the priest.

“This is what entertainment is all about. Now kill him!”

Kugugu….!

The giant raised a huge fist. Muhyuk looked up at the monster, which he could not even scratch.

It was then.

Kunnng!

Suddenly, a loud sound of shock was heard from the ceiling above the speculative site. The shock shook the inside of the dungeon like an earthquake.

Boom!

A deafening explosion was heard, and a series of loud cracks broke out.

Koong! Koong! Koong……!

Light poured from the crack and began to shine inside the speculative site.

The white light forced all the dead in the speculative arena to cover their eyes.

“……That is…?”

Looking up at the light, Muhyuk opened his mouth blankly. And someone popped out of the crack.

Whoosh!

The silhouette was holding a giant sword. And for an instant, he fell vertically from the tens of meters of the ceiling.

Wossssh!

A refreshing metallic sound burst out.

Whoosh!

One after another, the Taker’s iron-like forearm split neatly and burst into blood.

Boom!

The Taker’s forearm fell on the floor and laid flat.

One moment at that incredible sight. Silence has fallen in the speculative arena.

All eyes were on a man who fell to the ground and caused a dust wind.

Whoosh…!

The man’s hands flashed with a golden sword.

With everyone paying attention to him. The man who cut off Taker’s forearm at once looked back at Muhyuk.

“Your voice, I heard it clearly.”

And even though he was masked beyond recognition, his distinctive blunt voice and intimidation could not be hidden. It was Lee Jin-Seong.

Muhyuk looked at him foolishly, muttering in a flat voice.

“……Ah, that’s reassuring.”

He, who was the worst opponent, could not have been more reliable.

Kuuuuuah!

Lee Jin-Seong immediately turned his back on Muhyuk due to a fierce roar.

One arm was amputated, but the Taker was still alive. The Taker’s fist, seemingly the size of a human body. No one could easily get up when hit by that big fist.

However, Jin-Seong’s eyes were still.

Jin-Seong quietly approached the Taker. And as the excited Taker hastily tries to hit him.

Thud! Jin-Seong stepped firmly on the ground, sticking out his left foot. At the same time, a slaughter sword lifted with both hands faced the sky, creating huge wind pressure.

Whoosh!

The moment the dust wind that came to mind swirling around the original voice.

He spoke quietly.

“Attack.”

Then a high-pitched butcher was inserted vertically.

Kwagagagagak!

The sword split from the top of the Taker’s head to its Adam’s apple, the solar plexus, the navel, and the groin at once.

The body burst into blood, opening up on both sides like a well-cut cake in an instant.

Pooh!

There was a huge burst of blood, but none of it spattered on Jin-Seong’s body.

Whoo…!

And Jin-Seong looked around the altar with a sword on his shoulder.

“Huh?”

Kim Oh-sung flinched and looked at Jin-Seong. He stepped back without realizing it.

Lee Jin-Seong smiled at his pathetic appearance.

“Kim Oh-sung, this will be your grave.”
