Chapter 543
Conquest of Serandia.
Monsters spew flames and lightning, but humans pour lightning and flames from their fingertips.
On the battlefield of slaughter, where the winter had quickly passed away, there was no great difference between a human life and a monster’s life.
Whether it was from the monsters or the wizards, unknown flames crossed the sky and caused a great explosion, and the bombardment weapons mounted in the rear crushed, burned, or froze the monsters to death.
– Ugh support!
A soldier whose waist was split in two by the monster’s jaws died without even being able to scream.
– Jjaeok!
And, it took an instant for the blunt hammer that hit the jaw to shatter the monster’s skull.
-bang!
Soon, the monster that charged at the one who wielded the hammer smashed its head into the shining white shield.
-bang! blah blah!
After being pushed back with a shield, the paladin hit the head with a hammer and looked around.
– Ugh!
The white light emitted from the paladin’s body began to heal the wounds of the injured soldiers scattered around.
What is the use of healing wounds?
Adriana had no choice but to watch as the soldier whose shoulder had been cut off by her own divine power was bitten and crushed by another monster.
“Suck!”
Paladins are medics and assault soldiers on the battlefield.
In the most dangerous places on the battlefield, the paladins are those who can recover those who are injured and run away on their own feet.
Is that all, the paladin is able to fight by recovering the wounded soldiers in the field and recovering their combat power.
However, it is the paladins who have to see the sight of the lives they saved disappearing most of the time.
I feel more despair because there is hope.
Without the power of recovery, you can’t save someone, so you only have to focus on fighting, even if you swallow tears at the sight of the gruesomely wounded.
However, the Paladins must save so many people and watch the lives they saved disappear.
On this devastating battlefield, I’ve watched lives disappear as I fought and saved people from the Gate Avalanche.
Why have I never shed a tear?
The enemies who sobbed cannot be counted.
But tears cannot undo death.
There is nothing you can do except remember the people who have disappeared.
only power.
only fight.
Only this, heavy and dull hammer.
It was this hammer of judgment that he changed after learning that it was easier to crush monsters than to kill them with a sword.
This violence of tearing and crushing the enemy to death is the only good and the only justice in this cruel battlefield.
– Jjaeok!
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
– Pleasant!
Realizing that there is no justice other than killing enemies, Adriana wields the hammer of judgment.
Adriana is strong.
Even if it is not a master class, he entered the ranks of superhumans through Moonshine, and is superior to other superhumans in strengthening his body with divine power.
It is impossible to compare Adriana’s capabilities with those of ordinary soldiers.
But you can’t keep everyone.
I have seen countless lives that would perish even if I tried to save them.
I learned through countless battles that fighting while defending is meaningless.
I’ve had countless experiences of putting myself at risk while fighting to protect it.
but.
still.
Adriana cannot turn away from those who have fallen.
Just like when a junior hated by everyone tried to make a reckless attempt, he reached out a helping hand even though he knew there was no need to do so.
Adriana hasn’t changed.
couldn’t change
– Kwoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
“!”
The moment she saw a monster the size of a bison rush towards the fallen soldier with its blue fangs shining, Adriana was already blocking the monster’s way towards the fallen soldier before she thought.
-bang!
“Kuk!”
Unable to withstand the weight of the charge, Adriana bounces off and rolls to the floor.
I fell.
If your posture collapses once on the battlefield, there are cases where you die before you can stand up again.
Adriana gasped at the shock transmitted through the shield and saw the monster rush at her with its mouth open.
exactly the nape.
Before he could get his stance right, he couldn’t give up his neck and missed his weapon.
Adriana puts her right arm in the monster’s mouth with her right hand.
– Cards!
“nice… … Ugh!”
– Kreuk! Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
The plate armor crumples terribly.
– Wow! Wood Deuk!
“ugh… … flaw… … .”
The monster’s teeth dug into Adriana’s right arm, disregarding the divine protection of the armor.
Adriana is strong, but monsters cannot predict her strength.
There are some terribly weak ones, but just by biting them, you can pierce the armor protected by divine power and the defense of magical power enhancement.
At this rate, his arm would be torn off, and then his life.
“Ugh… … !”
-thud!
Even at the moment when the monster’s mouth is crushing his arm in real time right in front of his nose as he falls to the floor.
-thud! thud!
– Kreuk! Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Adriana smashes the monster’s head down with the shield on her left arm.
As if he would not let go even if he died, he continuously took pictures of the monster’s head with shining red eyes with the blade of his shield.
A battle of whether the arm is broken first or the monster’s head is broken first.
– Puck!
“Turn it off… … . Aww… … !”
-puck! puck! puck! Slap!
-to… … Eh… … .
One side of the monster’s head was smashed, and the monster’s body fell limp.
Adriana tries to open the jaws of a monster that doesn’t let go of her arm even after death.
The enemy is not one.
You have to get up.
If you don’t wake up, you die.
Adriana desperately tries to open the monster’s mouth, which has been closed even more strongly because it has already died.
There is no one to take care of yourself.
On the battlefield, everyone is alone.
The soldier Adriana saved had already been bitten on the neck by another monster and was bleeding from the nape of his neck.
Countless people fight together, but they are in a hurry to take care of their own lives. There are very few people who fight while protecting someone like Adriana.
-That’s it!
And, before Adriana could pull her arm out of the monster’s jaws, she could see the monster charging across the battlefield.
It is approximately six meters in size.
Normal soldiers cannot respond.
It wasn’t coming to attack him, but dozens of soldiers were flying through the sky and being trampled down by the monster’s single kick.
I am confident in the monster’s movement path.
“ah… … . Aww! Ugh!”
You have to open the monster’s closed mouth somehow to get out of the monster’s movement path or deal with it.
It’s too late.
Should I give up my arm?
I’d rather have my arm cut off than die.
But how to cut off an arm in this situation.
The monster had reached right in front of Adriana.
And, when Adriana finally gnashed her teeth and tried to strike her own elbow with the blade of the shield that crushed the monster’s head.
-Pajijijik!
A spark resembling a thunderbolt rose in the air and something appeared.
What appeared as a space shift was something gigantic, gray metal, comparable to that of a giant.
– Whoa!
– Beep!
Adriana watched blankly as the giant’s head exploded after being hit by a huge off-white metal.
“Golem… … .”
A huge iron golem appeared and began to trample and crush the monster.
-It’s a golem!
-It’s the archduke’s golem!
Just as Adriana’s life was saved by the arrival of the golem, other soldiers cheered as the giant golem began fighting alongside them on the battlefield.
Archduke Saint-Ouane.
Although he is looked down on due to his youngest daughter’s betrayal, no one can deny the skills of the Grand Duke and the magicians of the Principality of Saint-Ouan.
The Grand Duke, who had actually participated in the Pandemonium War, was using the golem that had been trampling on demons to trample the monsters at the gate this time.
– Jjaeong!
-Kooung!
Adriana sees the golems in action in front of her and inserts a shield into the monster’s mouth and twists it open.
“eww… … Ugh!”
It felt like the bones in the upper arm of my right arm had been completely shattered.
– Ugh!
Just as she can heal others, Adriana can, of course, heal her own body as well.
With her restored arm, Adriana picks up the fallen hammer and gets up.
The golems of the principality fight together.
The Iron Golem, befitting its size, was fighting large monsters that devastated the battlefield.
Adriana runs after the Iron Golem.
Running and chanting like a prayer.
“Gods.”
says the young priestess.
“Five Lords.”
“With these tears.”
“This blood.”
“So many tears.”
“So much fatigue.”
“What do you want to achieve?”
Drunk with monster and human blood, Adriana shouts in despair, but her eyes remain alive.
What a beautiful paradise the world made with tears and blood is.
Why do the gods want so much death and tears?
-thud!
Adriana, who struggled to set the blood-stained hammer on the ground amid the piles of flesh of the fallen and crushed monsters, looked around the battlefield in a daze.
– Kang! Caang!
Just as the giant golem swept across the battlefield to clear a path, the sky suddenly darkened and something shot down to the ground.
-Kooung
“Dra… … Gon… … ?”
A monster with a pair of wings, a huge torso, and the head of a lizard.
Countless soldiers and monsters stumbled or fell just by the shock of the monster, which was three times the size of the already gigantic Iron Golem, settling on the ground.
The dragon was so huge that it looked down at the six-meter-long monster as if it were a toy.
The dragon opens its mouth at the iron golem.
-Kwoaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
-Kurrureurreung!
Crimson flames spewed out from the dragon’s mouth and rained down on the iron golem.
“ah… … .”
The steel golem, which seemed to pierce through waves of monsters and crush all monsters, turned red hot or turned into molten iron and disappeared at once from the breath of flame from an even bigger monster.
strong monster.
A human creation stronger than that.
But a bigger and stronger monster than that.
Humans are strong.
Monsters are anything.
Adriana couldn’t help but harden when she saw the remains of the golem that had turned into red molten iron and the shape of a dragon standing in front of it like a mountain.
Monsters do not fall into despair, but humans do.
Adriana grabs the hammer with trembling hands.
And, take up a shield.
It’s hopeless, but I can’t collapse.
Adriana ran towards the dragon with its mouth wide open.
-Kurrureurreung!
Watching the breath of flame that melted even the steel golem pour down on her, Adriana predicts the path of the flame and throws herself to the side.
giants are giants
It’s small, so you might not be able to win.
However, because it is small, it may be a little more free from that monster’s attack.
It’s ridiculous to talk about odds.
If every fight is a die roll between survival and death.
As long as we have to fight countless times, it is the fate of a soldier in war that the back side of death will come out someday.
Even so, Adriana ran away from the flames that melted the earth, and before she knew it, she reached the jaw of a huge dragon.
I know that one day the back side of death will inevitably come out.
I was determined to fight.
As if he extended a hand of salvation to those who would die again if he tried to save them.
stupid fight.
Foolishly, I decided to continue.
“Suck!”
Reaching the monster’s face, Adriana leaps from under it and climbs on top of it, using the horns sprouting from the dragon’s head as handles.
Even with its head alone, the monster, which was bigger than itself, could feel the heat that humans could not bear even from its head, probably because it spewed out flames that melted metal.
– Jjaeong!
Holding the dragon’s horn in her left hand, Adriana struck the dragon’s head down with the hammer in her right hand.
-Kwoaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
There is nothing to worry about whether it will work or not.
Even if it can’t be broken, someone will survive just by not letting out the flames.
Even if I die next time, I won’t die now.
That should be it.
I can’t do more than this, but if I can protect it now, that’s enough.
-Kwoaaaaa!
In order not to fall from the violently shaking dragon’s head, Adriana grabbed the horn with her left hand and struck the hammer with her right hand.
-bang! bang! bang!
Neither a sword nor a spear would fit into this thick hide.
Not even the slightest amount of magic would be able to harm this monster.
Adriana gave up her sword to kill the monster with an impenetrable skin.
The reason I gave up the long-trained sword and took the hammer was to kill a monster like this.
– Whoa!
Adriana raises her hammer in a shaking that seems like her reason will be blown away.
-bang!
the gods
-bang!
If everything is arranged by you, what on earth is at the end of this?
the gods
– Jjaeong!
five weeks.
– Pleasant!
I hate you guys.
-Kwoaaaaa!
The god-hating priest’s hammering continues to break the huge rock named dragon.
The world may not belong to humans.
At least, it must belong to the living.
It should not belong to these creatures of madness, with no reason or anything, just destructive instincts.
It cannot be called the world.
“Huhhhhhhhh!”
Creatures out of line.
Towards the beast of destruction that does not exist as a living creature.
Adriana’s hammer stretched into the sky glowed with intense white light.
Exterminate those who deviate from reason.
Towards a beast that is no different from a machine that does not exist.
Adriana strikes the hammer with pure hatred.
– Jjakeong!
As soon as the hammer was struck down, a white lightning bolt fell from the sky and pierced the dragon’s head.
-Kwoaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
The dragon raised its head with a thunderclap-like death rage, and soon collapsed with its head as if its huge body were collapsing.
-Kooung… … .
“ha… … . ha… … . ha… … .”
Adriana lands just before the monster’s head touches the ground, looking at the unbelievable thing she has done.
I can’t understand what happened.
However, the monster was pierced through the center of the head with a hammer and died.
The monster collapsed at the pitiful weapon, which was heavy but was no better than a toothpick compared to that gigantic body.
“ha… … . ha… … .”
Taking a breath, Adriana looks at herself as if she were watching a miraculous person, and meets the eyes of many soldiers.
-Oh oh oh… … .
-Five Lords… … .
The soldiers pay their respects to God even in the midst of this rough fight, knowing what they feel from Adriana wearing white light, a proof of divinity.
is it a miracle
Should this be called a miracle?
Adriana blankly looked up at the battlefield sky.
It’s just that one giant monster dies, but the fight isn’t over.
Miracles like this happen on the battlefield, and more tragedies are innumerable.
Until the end of the war comes, these monsters will continue to appear.
Is there really an end to this fight where such things appear countless times?
A hopeless battlefield filled with waves of monsters, fire, lightning, and cold.
Is there any way out of this hell where there is only slaughter everywhere?
Adriana smashes the dragon, but falls into despair.
Seeing monsters of the same size or even bigger rushing in, you can’t help but fall into despair.
How many more miracles are needed?
is it going to end
In the despair after the miracle, Adriana is devastated.
the end of this hell.
anyone is good
the end of this hell.
Killing and dying, watching someone die is even more exhausting.
end of this world.
The destination of this pain, despair and fear.
to import.
-thud!
– Kuku kung!
from afar.
Adriana sees dozens of flashes across the battlefield.
– Squeak!
– Kwajik!
Dozens of beams of light cut, crush, and shatter every monster it touches, passing soldiers as if flying across the battlefield and rushing at them like a darting arrow.
not a flash
A being wrapped in blue magic power all over its body.
Superhumans among superhumans.
The strongest people of mankind who have risen to the master class are coming.
One of the rays, Adriana, saw as it raced across the battlefield and passed her.
Dozens of flashes of light that ran over the corpse of the dragon that Adriana had slain.
one of those flashes.
“… … Ellen.”
Ellen Artorius.
He clearly felt the insensitive eyes of someone passing by, briefly looking at him and then looking straight ahead.
– Huung!
Despite the fact that people had passed by, it was a rough and agile rush, about the size of a gust of wind.
The hero, Ellen Artorius, leads a guerrilla force composed of master classes and breaks through the battlefield.
Every monster in its path bursts, shatters, slices and tramples away.
That terrifyingly calm and subdued expression.
Adriana rather finds relief in that indifference.
Other soldiers are no different.
The expressionless expression of a hero who is neither embarrassed, nor frightened, nor sad, nor overly confident.
People believe in the calm of the warrior.
That calmness rather trusts that expression of the inhuman hero.
Because it is something that transcends humans, a strange trust arises that humans can do things that humans cannot do, and that trust soon becomes faith in the impossible things that the hero has accomplished.
A hero who seems to have no emotions.
The one who will bring an end to all of this.
-Suddenly!
Ellen Artorius, who leaped high into the air, swung her sword once at a monster as huge as a mountain.
– Squeak!
Just by passing the curtain of darkness extending from the hugely enlarged Void Sword, the monster that was like a mountain collapsed while spewing blood.
Adriana had to risk her life in a blood battle with a monster smaller than that.
However, as if one blow was enough to subdue a giant mountain, it was possible for Ellen Artorius with one blow.
-Kurrureurreung!
And, the whip of flame pouring out of the cloak of the sunlight that the warrior wore exploded on the land, burning up to thousands of monsters in an instant.
Calm expression and not at all fierce power.
overwhelming inaction.
Breaking through the waves of monsters, the hero advances.
Also, superhumans led by such a hero cross the battlefield like beams of light.
overwhelming strength.
Overwhelming protection.
How could people not find hope in Ellen?
Adriana’s miracle is a daily routine for Ellen.
A monster that can only be killed by Adriana’s miracle is suffocated by Ellen’s blow.
That’s why it’s called a warrior.
Adriana feels it when she sees the warrior and the guerrillas following him through the waves of monsters.
Although there may be no hope.
If it’s them, maybe it’s possible.
If it’s that strong, the end of this war might come.
That’s why the hero has no choice but to become a believer.
They will destroy the warp gate.
It will bring an end to everything.
To believe that they will end all days of sorrow and hatred.
“Whoa… … .”
Adriana raised the hammer again.
