Return of the Frozen Player 588
two wars(6)
“indeed. Even if it rots, it’s a juniper, isn’t it?”
If he had been hit by that attack without any preparation, he could have suffered near-death damage.
The Heavenly Demon acknowledged that fact.
‘But it’s a meaningless assumption.’
His demonic energy is compressed and compressed again and again, and he is pure to the point of being comparable to that of the demons.
When the demon is judged to be in danger, it automatically raises a self-defense technique (護身®氣) as before.
‘I don’t know if it’s at least the guardian of darkness handled by the dim, there’s no way it’ll be pierced by a single bullet.’
The Heavenly Demon thought for a moment.
I wondered if Gilberto Green, a sniper who was called ‘Trash Can’ in the past, could kill himself.
The conclusion came straight away.
‘ does not exist.’
judged so that it is absolutely impossible
After coming to a conclusion, the Heavenly Demon stretched out her hand toward the generator.
Chi Yi Yi!
“O”
For a moment, frown at the heat so hot that it burns your palms.
Her demon trait, ‘Mimic’s Gluttony’, began to greedily suck up the force of the power plant.
‘ iced coffee.’
The Heavenly Demon’s body trembled.
Joy that penetrates from the toes to the top of the head.
A sense of exhilaration that makes you feel alive.
It was a different feeling compared to when I absorbed the internal energy chip on the 5th floor.
‘At that time, if I had crumpled it into my mouth to absorb even a little more of the magic that was released out of the world in an instant… …
It was different now.
It’s like going to a fine dining restaurant
Like Ga, I was able to savor the deep and rich taste of the force with dignity.
The Heavenly Demon instantly fell into that pleasure.
At this moment, I didn’t want to be disturbed by anyone.
“shit! Push left!”
“Leave it to us!”
“Push the center! Push more!”
Players and failures gathered together to push the Overmind Corps away.
Their desperate cries reached Gilberto’s ears as he climbed the watchtower.
But unfortunately I can’t afford to help them.
The Heavenly Demon found by accident while scouting inside the power plant.
I caught him approaching the generator.
‘The Heavenly Demon is a person who needs special attention.’
He has the ability to absorb the power of others.
He wouldn’t have sneaked into the power plant for no purpose.
Gilberto realized it intuitively the moment he found him.
‘Is the purpose of absorbing the force here?’
Just imagining that future for a moment made my body tremble.
The amount of force here is lightly more than the amount of energy chips he absorbed on the 5th floor.
‘If the Heavenly Demon absorbs all of those forces… …
That would be a huge disaster.
Not only the 7th floor clearing, but also the disaster-like disaster blocking the player’s path.
‘It should be stopped.’
Gilberto Green shot the Heavenly Horse straight away.
‘The shield… … Is it a similar principle to that of Skye?’
no. It was a little different.
Skaya basically spreads dozens of layers of defense, but that guy’s
The shield is only one layer.
‘But it’s hard enough to be compared to Skaya’s.’
While thinking about it for a while.
The Heavenly Demon stretched out her hand toward the generator.
At the same time, the lights on the watchtower flickered several times.
‘Am I absorbing?’
The act of completely ignoring the existence of oneself.
But impatient rather than in a bad mood
this came first
“Particle Expansion. Making progress.”
It is a weapon that has already undergone rescue registration and effectiveness verification.
Isaac Debord.
A powerful anti-personnel weapon that played with one of the nine thousand people like a child, the rail gun.
‘If this is so, you too… …
Gilberto, who aimed the gun at the Heavenly Demon, pulled the trigger.
Aaaaaang!
There was a huge explosion, but his
Swear words, not cheers, came out of his mouth.
“shit!”
The Heavenly Demon was fine.
He continued absorbing without even giving himself a glance.
It was an attitude that didn’t even seem worth worrying about.
‘… … Is it that strong just by simply wearing demonic clothing?’
I thought that with this strength, I could confidently stand by Junho’s and friends’ side.
‘To be stupid.’
What is it that takes the seat right next to you?
If it’s Junho’s darkness, if it’s Skaya’s destructive ray, if it’s Ramadart’s power, if it’s Mio’s sword.
He must be able to break through that barrier that protects the Heavenly Demon.
Somehow, the Heavenly Demon must have made it impossible for them to look at them.
I want to stand by them as a ‘colleague’, not just a ‘friend’
noodle.
You should be able to do the same for them.
‘What weapon is stronger than a sniper rifle or a railgun?’
My head got complicated.
nucleus? Can you make a nucleus through ether?
“Particle unfolding, structure registration… … shit.”
Failed.
In the first place, imitating atomic nuclei with ether was impossible.
“Then a stronger weapon… …
speech became blurred.
Gilberto muttered, closing his eyes.
“… … stupid guy.”
It was a self-blame.
‘Having obtained the power I always wanted, is it just relying on that power?’
Killing Isaac Debord with a railgun wasn’t particularly his own skill or anything.
Just a new power called ether.
Thanks to the overwhelming output of that power
It was just the result of Dan.
‘It’s only like this that I’m no different from the fools I used to think of.’
Those who get drunk with power and forget the most basic things.
Those who mistakenly believe that strength is their own skill.
match!
Gilberto hit me in the face with both hands.
Along with waking up, Junho’s advice came to mind.
_Wow, three hundred times? Still say no?
-Then bounce five hundred times.
-If that’s not enough? Then bounce a thousand times.
The advice he gave to me when I was trying to overcome the level 4, Seo Jun-ho difficulty level.
‘… … Let’s not doubt it.’
The ether is not a force to rely on, but a weapon to wield.
Get something new that you can believe in
It’s not a weapon, it’s just the path he’s walked.
“Particle Expansion.”
Gilberto’s eyes slowly opened, and there was not even the faintest movement in his pupils.
“Structure Registration, Effectiveness Verification.”
production approval.
After confirming the result, Gilberto poured all his ether into making it without hesitation.
Surprisingly, what was created in front of his eyes was not a gun.
Whoaaaaaagh!
After production was completed, ‘It’ filled the high sky and began to shine like stars.
If I had to explain it, it was a reflector.
“Inventory.”
Gilberto pulled a revolver from his inventory.
It was a weapon that was small enough to fit in one hand, the ‘revolver of the oath’.
It is like a double-edged sword that draws the user’s magical power, mental strength, and energy to create bullets.
silver weapon.
Every time the special reflector bounces once, the destructive power, penetration, and speed are doubled.
There is no certainty. I still don’t know.
Was it really the right choice to invest all the ether to make a reflector for ‘thousand’ water mirrors?
“but.”
He seemed to know only one thing.
Even if this attack fails, you will lose your life to the Heavenly Demon.
chart.
‘I have no regrets.’
This is yourself.
It’s the road that Gilberto Green, a hard worker, has been running with all his might.
He looked at the thousand reflectors that filled the night sky of the power plant and flowed leisurely like stars.
“Whoa.”
He let out a trembling breath and aimed his gun at the night sky.
Gilberto’s eyes focused on the thousand reflectors.
Think about which reflector to hit first.
Think about which orbit to shoot to connect all the stars and create 999 lines.
No, thinking itself is meaningless.
‘Because I’m not Skaya.’
I don’t have a brain that’s brilliant enough to calculate those things as soon as I see them.
What you need to rely on now is experience.
And it was a gunman’s instinct that he had built up by pulling the trigger.
“ah.”
Suddenly, without even realizing it, a sound came out of my mouth.
It feels as if the stars and your body have become one.
clap.
Did you pull the trigger yourself?
The revolver of the oath emitted light as the strength of the body was drained.
In an instant, that light is like the stars in the sky
started bouncing between them.
Now everything is out of your hands.
Gilberto looked at the light without a word.
Each time the light connected a line from star to star, the light it emitted became more intense.
The light connected between the stars and vomited intense divinity.
Bullet Time.
Even in slow time, his light
was shining brightly.
‘… … Were you like that?’
Until now, it was so fast that I couldn’t even name it because I had never seen it.
But now it is clearly visible.
Although my vocabulary is lacking, one word came to my mind intensely.
“A shooting star.”
A clear beam of light cutting through the night sky and moving toward my goal without hesitation.
For this moment, even the pitch-black night sky felt like an attendant to illuminate only that line.
“I can’t think of a name that suits you better than that.”
As if to answer the call.
The ‘Meteor’, which continued to grow fiercely, finally hit the thousandth star and fell to the ground.
The Heavenly Demon raised her head in an inexplicable sense of intimidation.
At the same time, a tremendous demonic spirit rages
I hit him and instinctively blocked him ‘several times’.
” ah.”
penetrated
The hard self-defense technique penetrates like window paper and allows light to penetrate.
It was an ending the Heavenly Demon did not want. It was an ending I had never even expected.
“this.”
Above the head of the Heavenly Demon, who spat out an absurd and brief sentiment.
The meteor fell.
* * *
Where the generators were concentrated, a huge crater was created, as if a meteorite had fallen.
Of course, the power plant was destroyed at once, and a tremendous force was released in the world.
‘It feels like the ether is filling up just by breathing.’
Gilberto let go of that energy.
Without stopping, I gathered my steps and moved on.
In the center of the crater, there was a puddle of blood and a torn coat of arms.
“… … Did you still have the energy to move even after being hit by that attack?”
Gilberto let out a low moan.
In his heart, he wanted to track down the Heavenly Demon, but his physical condition was not so good either.
‘I don’t even have a handful of magic power left after using the Revolver of the Oath.’
Energy and stamina are also messed up
egg plant.
Gilberto sighed as he put down his hand holding the gun.
“… … Did you stop it first though?”
The terrible thing that the Heavenly Demon absorbed all the force of the power plant was prevented.
That alone would have passed a major hurdle.
‘Even though I missed it.’
Gilberto slumped to the floor.
With the destruction of the power plant, the force unleashed into the world is truly staggering.
was
Now, he himself has to absorb this force and increase the size of the ether itself.
‘ Heavenly Demon……
It was a pity that I missed him, but I was lucky to have made this situation in the first place.
If you were to face him head-on, you would lose a hundred battles.
The situation itself in which he could win would not have come out in the first place.
‘I just swallowed myself up with arrogance.’
Gilberto let out a sigh filled with complicated feelings.
However, something kept ticking my nerves.
‘…. “what?’
Gilberto, pondering what it could be, jumped up from his seat.
“Keugh!”
He roamed all around, dragging his screaming body along.
‘ does not exist.’
Didn’t see.
A holy relic of the Sun Bridge that is presumed to be the fundamental reason why the Ascendants were able to convert mana into force.
“… … I can’t see the holy sword.”
It wasn’t too difficult to guess whose hands it might be in now.
Gilberto’s face contorted.
Only the bitter air of the ruins passed over his face as he was left alone.
