Chapter 419

Beyond the soaring spray, the black speck below could be seen running deeper and deeper.

“nervous? “Why should I be nervous?”

[Leeha, I see.]

Baylippus laughed heartily while listening to Alexander’s leisure.

Neither Luger’s skill, which unleashed an absurd amount of kinetic energy, nor Kidd’s skill, which unleashed firepower like a Gatling gun in the Middle Earth setting of the Middle Ages, could not make Alexander nervous.

“hmm?”

Rather, what we need to be nervous about now is what is on the other side.

Alexander frowned as he looked towards the opposite deck.

Si── Shaa──────...

Shaaa──── Sisishi...

“omg...”

“Come on, the Serpent is waking up!”

Two serpents, stretched out like seaweed stalks floating on the sea, were slowly rising.

Anxiety mixed with despair spread throughout the Marlin and New-Serpent.

How do I stop that now?

The moment you summon Baylipus, your ship will be destroyed by the Kraken.

This means that it must be prevented solely by the power of the users.

However, the users’ recovery is not yet complete, and the cooldowns of the skills used so far have not yet run out.

At this point, the thoughts of all rankers, including Alexander, Lee Ji-won, and Ram Hwa-jeong, as well as all users, had no choice but to harden for a moment.

“Whoa, whoa...” ... Haaaa... Hey, is there anyone who is close to Bantal? I will contact him when I leave, so please give me your contact information. I’ll ask you to connect right away. Even something like email.”

Meanwhile, there was a user who slowly stepped forward, releasing his wrists and ankles.

It was a man with a slightly immature expression and who clearly showed signs of being nervous.

A person with a sturdy physique and a playful face that strangely suits him well.

“... Mr. Kijeong?”

Bobae’s eyes became round.

Watching Ki-jeong step forward, catching his breath and caressing his weapon and shield, Ki-jeong also smiled a small smile.

“If I step up and tank, how many minutes can I last?”

* * *

“What is that-”

“Leeha, at least 10 minutes would be enough to increase the distance, right?”

“what! What nonsense are you thinking! “I absolutely cannot allow it.”

Bobae could immediately tell what Kijeong was thinking.

As the only tank among those currently connected, he wants to take the time.

I might be able to hold out for a while.

If you briefly use a spell to stop it on the water, or launch a boat and stand there, it will definitely last for 5 minutes.

But what about after that?

“Mr. Ki-jeong is dying! “You can’t come back to save me!”

100% confirmed death.

But Kijeong’s eyes were determined.

“But someone has to do it. Leeha, isn’t it?”

There is no way the person who decided to do it would not have thought about that situation. Bo-bae was speechless when she saw Ki-jeong’s face.

“Hakit, how can brothers be so similar...”

“I said we’re not even biological brothers.”

Biyemi and Jinggeong said one thing at a time.

The reason for saying this was simple.

This is because they, like Bo-bae, did not agree with Ki-jeong’s thoughts.

“Kay, I can’t do it without you. The possibility of other guys appearing after the Serpent – even considering the time after arrival in the New Continent... We need hard tanks.”

Hye-in also took an active role and grabbed Ki-jeong’s arm.

However, it did not break Kijeong’s stubbornness. If there is any other way than this, I will do it. But there isn’t.

Every ‘man’ on both ships knew there was no other way.

“No, it’s not a hopeless story. hook! “Would you please hold the key for me?”

“... Captain Drake?”

However, there were not only ‘humans’ on both ships.

“all right. Do you know that you will die when you die?! Instead, if you succeed-”

“Leeha, I understand! “Don’t worry!”

While Ki-jeong was sharing a look with Bo-bae, the skills of the healers, including Rafaella, had already covered Ki-jeong’s body.

“Cheer up! “Let’s die today!”

Ki-jeong ran towards the Black Serpent, who had already approached the deck of the New-Serpent.

The first attack on Ki-jeong, who blocked Drake’s path, was not a tail strike.

Shaaaaaaaaaaaaaat───────────!

The sea serpent, covered in pitch-black scales, opened its mouth as if it were about to rip off Ki-jeong’s waist.

“Come!”

Quad deud deuk!

It was about the 8th day after entering the waters of Yonggung.

* * *

The heads of the Black Serpent and the White Serpent are much larger than those of humans.

One attack, fired like lightning by twisting the neck to the side, was actually enough to bite off Ki-jeong’s entire body except for his head.

“─────────!”

The sound of armor collapsing could be heard even from the Marlin on the other side.

It wasn’t just the armor that was dented.

Ki-jeong’s face, which was sticking out from the side of the Serpent’s mouth, was also crumpled.

There was one thing that Kijeong and Leeha did not reveal to each other. That is the assimilation rate.

For reliable and delicate tanking, Kijeong’s assimilation rate was ‘exceeded’ of 50%.

The sense of reality he felt in Middle Earth was clearer than Leeha’s.

There was no way the pain from the Serpent’s teeth would be lukewarm.

Not all of the Marlin users went down to the cabin.

This is because a minimum number of defense personnel was needed to deal with the fishmen jumping out from the left deck.

Therefore, I was able to clearly see Kijeong being bitten.

“Ki, kijeong...”

So much so that Shin Nara unconsciously covered her mouth with her hand and screamed.

-sound... Don’t scream, Bobae, listen...

Kijeong managed to turn his head and look at the Marlin. Xin Nara’s face was not visible.

‘Visibility is fine. The decrease in HP is not as big as I thought. It’s a good thing I didn’t get my head bitten off, but-‘

It looked as if Ki-jeong was being held in a huge hand.

However, it was not pleasant for Ki-jeong to have the sharp teeth of a poisonous sea snake instead of soft skin like a hand.

Quad deuk!

The serpent’s teeth once again squeezed through the gap between the armor.

Ki-jeong could very well feel the cold, sharp object digging into his skin.

‘After all, a snake is a snake, so this is it.’

A three-type combo of the status abnormalities [poisoning], [bleeding], and [fainting].

Considering that ordinary snake or reptile-type monsters have only one type of poison, the Serpent was definitely a monster worthy of its name.

‘If it wasn’t for the sword my brother Lee gave me, it would have been dangerous. If I were to be stunned in this situation, I would really be dead.’

The Serpent’s bite attack is also classified as a ‘melee attack’.

Thanks to the buff from the Nameless Paladin’s sword, this attack’s damage was virtually ignored by about half.

In addition to the status abnormalities [poisoning] and [bleeding], the damage was considerable, but Ki-jeong was fortunate that he did not fall into the status abnormality [fainting].

‘Giggles, even if you’re not in an abnormal condition, if you’re bitten by a huge snake like this, you’ll pass out from shock.’

In the meantime, Ki-jeong joked to himself, relaxed, and shook his head.

If you keep watching the situation where continuous damage continues to fall, it could become really dangerous.

“Get out quickly, Mr. Ki-jeong!”

-Scream, scream- I want you to drink. ah! It’s a secret that I showed this to Bobae... ?

In the meantime, isn’t it the heart of men who worry about being seen as weak by the woman they like?

Ki-jeong quickly whispered to Shin Na-ra and began to do his best.

“Damn snake... The bastard—!”

Siiiiit──────?

The Black Serpent was taken aback by the fact that the person he was biting had not yet died.

What’s more, you didn’t even faint?

As Sibreem said, it was an incomprehensible reaction to the Serpent, the strongest aquatic creature.
