Chapter 230

Episode 230 [ Advance (5) ]

A large stepped pyramid in the middle of old ruins.

It was an old king’s tomb that archaeologists were delighted to discover was a Goguryeo relic that had been quietly hidden after being discovered by a Chinese expedition team ten years ago.

The EV special operations team passed through the ruins and arrived at the pyramid.

Meanwhile, Kyung-Hoon had also joined the group.

“Are you entering?”

In response to Vasily’s question, Kyung-hoon scanned the mana around him.

Powerful mana was gradually rising from underground.

It would still take time to reach the ground, but it was going up without stopping.

But Kyung-hoon felt a little bad.

The climbing speed was too slow.

“Tell me about the situation around Eve.”

-Monsters and Korean awakeners are fighting in the eastern area of the ruins. The Awakened advance team is in a more advantageous situation.

-The main Korean army and other units are also approaching. I think it will take some more time to arrive. And...

the detection satellite overhead showed the monsters’ current location.

The mana detection satellite was rerouted over Manchuria, cutting off several years from its lifespan.

-Monster waves are coming one after another. 2nd, 3rd... Monsters from far away are coming in. I think the first wave will arrive in 20 minutes.

Multi-layered concentric circles made up of monsters were gradually narrowing around this area.

“30 minutes.”

Gyeong-hoon raised the corner of his lips.

The time the surrounding monsters arrived and the time the monarch came up to the ground was the same.

No matter how you looked at it, it was clear that they were aiming for it.

There was no reason to do what the enemy wanted.

Gyeong-hoon ordered . “Monsters are approaching. Enter immediately.

”

The entrance to the pyramid was wide open.

Judging from the broken stone slabs scattered in front of the entrance, it seemed to have been blocked originally.

However, weeds were covering the broken stone slabs. It seemed like the blocked door had been broken for some time.

EV Special Operations 2 Team 3 was at the entrance. They set up a security guard and entered the pyramid.

Kyung-hoon also glanced to the west and disappeared inside with the operation team.

Yeong-cheol, who had been carefully following the EV awakeners from afar, was embarrassed when people entered the pyramid. It would have been better if

everyone had gone in. There were Awakened people guarding the entrance.

To get inside, you would have to defeat the guarding Awakenings, but if you did that, you might end up completely at odds with EV.

“Damn, it’s impossible to win.”

Honestly, with my current abilities, it was impossible to even defeat those awakened people.

If I had the skills from my previous life, it would have been worth a try, but I still have a long way to go before I can regain my old skills.

“If I can get involved in hunting knight-level or captain-level monsters, I can do it sooner.” I could raise my level...”

But during the war, it was impossible to choose a monster to fight. This level of growth was also appreciated.

It was probably impossible to go into the pyramid.

Yeongcheol clicked his tongue softly and entered the building hidden behind the wall. .

It looked like a building being prepared for a ancestral rite. Old earthenware and bronze knives were rolling around inside the building.

He looked around inside with a perplexed expression and noticed something strange.

Had it collapsed? There was a hole in the corner of the building where a person could pass through.

Deep inside . It was a hole. The direction of the hole was towards the pyramid.

It was curved in the middle, so he couldn’t tell the end, but he could intuitively feel that this hole was connected to the basement of the pyramid.

Of course, he planned to wait until the people who went in came out again. Although he came into this ruins...

“I followed you all the way here and you’re just waiting for me to come out?”

Yeongcheol suddenly felt frustrated. He couldn’t wait any longer.

“Damn it! What else can I do but die?”

He shouted at the unbelieving god and jumped into the hole.

*

The awakened people in formation carefully walked down the stone passage.

It was a strong and large passage unlike an old ruin. Unlike

the movie, there were no traps or anything like that, but the passage was clear. It was divided into several branches like a maze.

If it weren’t for Kyung-hoon, who was leading the way in front, the awakened people might have gotten lost.

Suss.

The sound of something passing through the stone walls was heard.

“It’s spooky...”

One awakened . The other Awakened people noticed the person’s muttering.

But everyone had similar thoughts.

Becoming an Awakening did not mean that the instinctive fear disappeared. Everyone felt like the hair on their body was rising.

“Is it the sound of the wind? Or is it an auditory hallucination? It’s quite an unpleasant sound. “Yes.”

Everyone seemed fine. Fortunately, everyone was fighting well.

I wanted to raise more awakened people, but unfortunately I didn’t have enough time.

So I couldn’t go out any further when I was with them.

“depart! From now on, we will destroy everything except the main passage!”

“All right!”

The group set off again.

As Kyung-hoon said, the group moved forward, destroying all other passages.

Small manas could be felt coming from other passages, but the party was not attacked because the passage was blocked.

After a while, the party approached right in front of the huge Mana.

It was 30 minutes after the group entered the pyramid.

-The first wave of monsters has arrived! Join the monsters in battle!

*

Boom!

A large hole opened in the monster’s body. The monster collapsed and Jinhyuk raised his shining fist.

His surroundings were full of fallen monsters.

But his expression was not good. The sudden appearance of monsters turned the tide of battle.

“Where the fuck has this person gone? “He’s not dead, is he?”

Jung-Gyu’s shout was heard from afar. It seemed like they had missed the person under surveillance.

However, Jinhyeok did not intend to scold him later.

No matter how you look at it, it was impossible to monitor in this situation.

Other awakened people were also fighting hard. Fortunately, the formation did not collapse.

After the monsters returned to their original form, the awakened people also became hunters, but as more monsters poured in, the people quickly formed their formation as they had trained.

Thanks to that, we are still holding on, but the damage was too great.

Thanks to the potion, there were not many deaths, but it was difficult for the injured to fight, as they would have died from consuming the potion.

The formation became more and more shaken. It seemed difficult to hold on any longer.

‘Should I step down?’

According to the plan, we had to retreat immediately, but we could not leave the people who entered the ruins alone.

I had to buy some time.

“Did North Korean awakeners also think like this?”

He shook off the sudden thought.

If things continued like this, it would have been annihilated. We couldn’t do it like the North Korean awakeners did. I couldn’t let everyone die.

It was the moment when he was about to call for retreat.

-Support is here!

I heard Seolyeon’s telepathy in my head. Jinhyuk hardened his expression.

Apparently, Seolyeon had been left behind with the soldiers for safety.

Her telepathy shouldn’t be heard here.

Jinhyuk turned his head with an angry face, but soon his face became blank.

Seolyeon was running.

With countless awakened people.

She didn’t come alone. He ran with the North Korean awakeners.

And there were more awakened people running.

Dahee, with a slightly pale face, shouted when she saw the fallen people.

“I’ll use it once. “Please protect me because I might faint!”

“No one will be able to touch Ms. Dahee. “Don’t worry.”

A bright blue determination appeared on the faces of the North Korean awakeners who came running to Dahee’s words.

It seemed impossible to touch Dahee before killing all North Korean awakeners.

Hahaha!

Light surged from Dahee’s body. The light spread in all directions.

The monsters that came into contact with the light retreated with disgusted expressions, and the wounds of the injured people gradually healed.

Truly a goddess. It was a recovery ability that could not be compared to a potion.

The awakened people who had fallen got up and the North Korean awakened people joined them.

The tide turned again.

Seol-yeon looked at Jin-hyuk, holding Da-hee, who was sleeping as if she had fainted.

Jinhyuk clenched his fist.

“attack! “Wipe it all away!”

Everyone cheered at the association president’s shout, which was different from usual.

Wow!

This time the awakened ones rushed in.

*

Not all monsters joined the fight.

Many monsters overcame their instincts and followed the monarch’s call, jumping into the pyramid.

The awakened people guarding the entrance tried hard to block it, but it was not enough.

The moment Gyeonghoon and his party met the monarch inside the pyramid, monsters poured into the pyramid.
