Chapter 457
Shin Ha-yul and the end god are fighting a fierce battle of nerves.
Fierce fighting continued outside.
“… … Inhyuk Shin. How long are you going to be thinking about it?”
No, it would be the wrong expression to say fierce.
In general, I don’t describe a battle in which one side is overpowered as a fierce battle.
“… … don’t rush Now is the time to be cautious.”
The charter is completely tilted.
Even though the monsters that appear to have been summoned by the end god are strong, they are too strong.
The forces on this side continue to dwindle, and the other side is unscathed.
If this situation continues, the front line will completely collapse within 5 minutes, and annihilation will occur within 7 minutes.
If something cannot be devised within 5 minutes, the world will perish.
“Careful or something, at this rate it will be annihilation! Either you and I went out, or we called in additional reinforcements. You don’t have to do anything fast!”
Captain Charles shouted with a frustrated expression.
Feeling frustrated at the sight of Shin In-hyeok thinking leisurely like that now, where every minute and 1 second is regrettable.
“Since time is urgent, we have to be even more careful. If you make a mistake in your choice now, there is no turning back.”
Shin In-hyeok refuted the opinion of General Manager Charles and continued to accelerate the accident.
‘There are 7 monsters in total. Fortunately or unfortunately, the three bodies aren’t even moving yet.’
Our main force is 60 wizards and 32 knights.
‘I can’t believe I’m in trouble because I can’t deal with four monsters with this power.’
The wizards and knights gathered here are the best powers in the world.
Even if dozens of S-rank monsters came, it was a level of power that could knock it down with a snort, but I never thought I’d moan because I couldn’t handle four monsters like that.
‘To reverse this situation, I have to deal with that dragon somehow.’
According to what I’ve seen for about 30 seconds now, each of the monsters that have appeared has different powers.
The strongest is the dragon that is rampaging in the forefront right now.
It is at least twice as strong as the others.
If you don’t do something about him, you won’t win.
―This is Falcon 13. It’s hard to hold out any longer! Urgent reinforcements… … Aaaaaaagh!
Just then, a shrieking sound came through the radio.
One of the seven units dealing with the dragon, the Falcon Unit, had a problem.
“Shin In-hyuk!”
Charles called Shin In-hyeok with a face that he really couldn’t stand anymore.
If you hesitate any longer, I have an idea.
I will move on my own.
It looked like he was saying that.
Shin In-hyeok didn’t answer.
Still can’t get an answer.
Captain Charles clicked his tongue.
“… … it’s okay. I’ll move on my own, so don’t worry.”
Captain Charles turned around.
Then, using telekinesis as it is, she flew her body into the sky.
“wait! hunt… … !”
hound.
I couldn’t even call out all three nicknames.
disappeared from sight before that.
Aaaaaaaaaagh-!
Right after that, there was a roar that sounded like a giant iron ball falling from the dragon’s side.
It was the noise generated by Charles’ telekinesis hitting the dragon.
“That idiot… … .”
Shin In-hyeok frowned and thought again.
Even the solo actions of Captain Charles should be taken into account, and the strategy should be drawn up.
‘It took a while, but the power of the dragon was roughly grasped.’
Roughly similar to the dragons that appeared in France, or slightly stronger.
‘It is similar to the dragon that appeared in France. Of all the magic we have right now, the only magic that can damage him is the Black Core.’
General Charles and Kim Kang-in are not inferior to Shin In-hyeok in terms of magic skills, but the magic system they have is a problem.
Charles’ telekinesis and Kim Kang-in’s water attribute magic have good versatility, but are inferior in terms of power.
Currently, the only way to damage the dragon is Shin In-hyeok’s black core.
‘The problem is how to embed a black core into him… … . After all, I have no choice but to accept some sacrifice.’
Using the other troops as bait, create a hole in the dragon, then insert a black core.
The damage to the allies would be considerable, but it could not be helped.
You can’t win unless you make sacrifices.
“Kim Kang-in.”
After thinking about it, Shin In-hyeok immediately picked up his walkie-talkie and sent a message to Kang-in Kim.
-yes. tell me… … Kut!
Kangin Kim let out a drool before answering.
Light impact and wind noise over the walkie-talkie.
It seems that a skirmish broke out in the middle of the battle.
“You seem busy, so I’ll just say the conclusion. I will join the field to deal with the dragon from now on. In the meantime, let you take over the command.”
Kim Kang-in is currently fighting a monster in the form of a praying mantis.
The charter is whistle.
The fighting power of the mantis monster is lower than that of other monsters, and because a huge force called Kim Kang-in is in charge, they are barely on par.
―You mean to return?
“okay. Come back and take over as acting commander.”
The sound of shock rang again over the radio.
This time, the sound of flowing water is also heard.
Kim Kang-in must have blocked the attack by using water-attribute magic through ‘water flow’.
-That’s a bit difficult. If I leave the front line now, the eastern front will collapse in 10 seconds.
Shin In-hyeok stepped onto the building and confirmed Kim Kang-in, who was fighting in the eastern direction.
Things certainly don’t look good.
“If command is empty, not only that place will collapse, but other places will also collapse.”
-yes. I know. So I’ll take command as we continue the battle here.
“Combat and command at the same time… … . Would that be possible?”
―It will be difficult, but what can you do? There is only one way.
Kangin Kim smiled bitterly.
-I’ll try.
At that time, Kim Kang-in’s mana fluctuated. Before using large-scale magic, he scattered a lot of mana.
―I’ll do my best… … .
Kim Kang-in’s mana soon seeped into the sea.
And that mana immediately created a whirlpool.
As if a typhoon had hit, the sea was rough and the air was shaking.
―Dragon, please. If you don’t deal with that side, all wires will collapse anyway.
The whirlpool that had been swirling only in the sea stretched up into the sky.
And the whirlpool soon changed into the shape of a dragon, and began to roar fiercely.
This is the magic that can be said to be the best among all the magic Kim Kang-in can perform.
water flow.
water dragon.
A dragon made of saltwater entangled the mantid monster.
“okay. leave this one alone I will definitely take care of it.”
-yes. Let’s live and meet each other.
“… … You always say something unlucky at the end.”
-haha. It was a light joke to unwind.
Shin In-hyeok smiled.
And with that laugh at the end, I lowered the walkie-talkie.
Contact is enough.
Anything more than this is just a waste of time.
“Whoa… … .”
Shin In-hyeok took a deep breath and moved his mana.
What I use is, of course, the black core.
‘No ordinary black core.’
A black core of the 8th circle cannot give him a clear finish.
If you don’t advance to a higher level, you won’t reach him.
‘Therefore, it is my life to bet.’
I will risk my life to advance to a higher level.
With the determination to throw away all mana circles. With the determination to destroy the entire body.
Raises output and power to the maximum and spreads the black core.
‘I’ll ask for your back.’
These were the words to Kim Kang-in and General Charles, as well as to Shin Ha-yul.
Shin In-hyeok raised his head and looked at Shin Ha-yul, who was fighting in the distance.
‘I wanted to see that figure up close.’
You can see it from a distance.
Shin Ha-yul rose to the 9th circle.
I don’t know what level I’m at yet, but it’s clear that I’ve stepped into the 9th circle.
‘Sorry. I’m really sorry.’
It was really regrettable that I had to leave like this without seeing such a Shin Ha-yul in front of me.
That’s the only one in heaven.
“Whoa.”
The mana in Shin In-hyeok’s body began to twist.
A very unusual movement, far from normal.
If someone saw this scene now, they would have stopped it somehow, shouting loudly that they were thinking of committing suicide.
“… … !”
Far away, Charles looks at Shin In-hyeok with a shocked expression.
He must have realized what Shin In-hyeok was about to do.
‘I guess someone isn’t a hound. One persimmon is really the best in the world.’
Shin In-hyeok smiled and twisted his mana even more.
I heard the sound of the mana circle inside my body breaking.
Like breaking glass, like tearing paper.
It sounded like that.
‘Kim noticed. Avoid it.’
Shin In-hyeok desperately controlled the twisted mana and stretched out his right hand.
and.
“Black core.”
All that mana was mobilized to form a single magic.
black core.
A compound magic with 4 attributes reminiscent of a simple black hole.
Shin In-hyeok’s special move.
It formed at the location of the dragon’s heart and began to devour the dragon.
oh oh oh oh-!
The dragon fought desperately, but to no avail.
It is a black core that Shin In-hyeok strengthened to the point of giving up everything.
Even the greatest monsters cannot escape.
Wheein… … .
Like that, the dragon was eaten by the black core and disappeared.
Together with the four people who were close to the dragon, it completely disappeared from this world.
‘Forgive me. There was no other way.’
As soon as he confirmed that the dragon had disappeared, Shin In-hyeok’s body disintegrated.
He apologized to the four people who were involved in his magic and slowly closed his eyes.
‘… … I’m tired. for a moment… … I need to sleep.’
Shin In-hyeok fell to the ground and fell asleep.
I fell into a sleep that never wakes up.
* * *
“Shin In-hyeok, that stupid idiot… … !”
At the same time as confirming that Shin In-hyeok had fallen, Captain Charles bit his lip.
‘What if the commander-in-chief dies first!’
I never imagined that Shin In-hyeok would make such a strong run from the start.
He kept hesitating and seemed to have no intention of participating, so I wondered if he was concentrating on conducting from a distance.
He never thought he would risk his own life to deal with the dragon.
‘I didn’t even know you were determined like that… … !’
He bit his lip so hard that blood flowed from Charles’ lips.
‘If you die. You can’t even apologize.’
What I thought was a coward.
and acting voluntarily.
I want to apologize to everyone in general, but there is no one left in this world to apologize to.
Charles’ lips trembled.
“Char, Commander Charles.”
Then, someone called Charles.
“Why is the dragon suddenly… … . What the hell is going on?”
Charles slowly raised his head and looked at the troops.
All of them are anxious and anxious, and they look like they are going to go crazy.
I was stunned when I saw those faces.
‘what are you doing. sick boy! It’s not the time when I’m shaking!’
Charles bit his teeth, chewed and swallowed the thought, and smiled leisurely as usual.
“Don’t you see? It’s a black core. Shin In-hyeok, commander-in-chief Na Euri, worked hard.”
Charles turned and looked at the other monsters.
“It’s unfortunate that there were crew members involved in focusing too much on power, but… … . I think it was an unavoidable decision.”
An ally died from an ally’s magic.
It was a situation that was enough to protest, but no one protested.
As someone who witnessed the dragon’s power right in front of me, I couldn’t deny that it was unavoidable.
“I’m sorry for the four victims, but I’ve dealt with the biggest threat of whatever. Now all that’s left are the small pikes.”
Commander Charles pointed to a pterodactyl monster fighting in the west.
“let’s go.”
There is no need for Katabuta chatter.
There is no need to talk about the victims or that Shin In-hyeok is dead.
Now, every minute and every second is important.
Now is the time to focus on defeating the monsters.
“yes!”
Charles spurned his seat first, and the crew moved after Charles.
“The power of pterosaurs is incomparable to that of dragons. If we join together, we’ll be able to take it down easily. After that, if you deal with the other monsters… … .”
It was when it was flying toward the pterosaur so fast.
Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-!
Immediately after their appearance, the three monsters, which had not shown any movement until now, began to roar in unison.
‘Of course now… … ?’
Three snakes, each colored red, blue and green.
They started to move at the same time as they roared.
“Fuck! Fuck the dog!”
I just wanted to succeed in making the charter a parallel line.
I thought they’d start moving right away.
“You bastard who won’t be happy even if you change it… … .”
Looking at the God of the End, who was confronting the servant Ha-yul from afar, Charles swears.
I don’t know if it’s hope torture or what.
Trampling on hope again at the very moment when it was said that there would be hope at best.
There is no such thing as evil.
“… … Operation change! We go right to those snakes!”
Charles stopped and turned to face the snakes.
They are the only ones who can move freely now.
Those three must be stopped somehow from this side.
“Commander, the meaning of dealing with those three with only 20 of us… … .”
“Because what you are thinking is correct. Shut up and follow me!”
The time has come to hear news of victory from the mantis monster.
Until then, we have to buy time on this side somehow.
If those three snakes start to get into the other wires, then the wires will collapse really quickly.
“We die here today.”
Therefore, their role is to be the scapegoat.
Buy time until the other side wins.
Use your body as bait to lure them in.
This is your best bet.
“For the family waiting at home. for friends. for children. make up your mind If we don’t die here, everyone dies.”
“… … yes.”
“All right.”
Someone with a determined expression, someone with a teary face, and someone chewing on their lips.
I made up my mind in each way.
“let’s go.”
It was time to start moving toward the three snakes, with Charles at the head.
Shaaaaaaaaagh-!
Suddenly, a red snake appeared right below Charles and the troops.
‘When until here… … !’
Until 0.1 seconds ago, I was far away.
When I noticed, I saw that the mouth was wide open right below me.
“Kuk!”
Charles immediately used his telekinesis to try to stop the snake from closing its mouth, but to no avail.
‘no. I can’t stop it!’
No matter how strong his teeth were, his telekinesis bounced back.
‘It’s eaten.’
The surroundings instantly darkened.
It enters the snake’s mouth, and all surrounding light is blocked.
‘… … die? So vain?’
Right before the snake’s mouth completely closed, he bit his lip while looking at the glimpse of the outside scenery.
‘I can’t do anything like this. can’t leave anything behind no one can keep So vain?’
Blood dripped from his chewed lips.
‘… … Don’t be a jerk.’
Are you going to die in a place like this?
I can’t die in a place like this.
A dog death like this is a no-brainer.
He will die in a more worthy way.
“Shut up and open your mouth! You snake bastard!!”
Charles’ mana exploded like a bomb.
As if something blocked had been opened, the amount of mana flowing from Captain Charles’ body was rapidly amplified.
The sudden increase in mana naturally led to the strengthening of telekinesis.
“If you don’t open it… … !”
Telekinesis leads to change into a new form.
The telekinesis changed into a sword-like form.
‘Beating is not the only physical force. Cutting, after all, is just a phenomenon that comes from physical force.’
The sword made of telekinesis was pulled back as far as it could go.
“I’m going to cut it out!!”
The sword of telekinesis was swung at tremendous speed.
and.
Slow-!
with the sound of something being cut.
Kieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
A tearing scream echoed from inside the snake’s jaws.
