. Introduction to barrier science (1)

eyes cross

Jinhyuk inserted his molars.

In order to achieve the copy condition, only 'curse' and 'barrier' must be used.

From now on, we have to fight in a slightly different way than before.

But right then.

The eyes of the Wailing Witch turned towards the end of the ruins.

I asked you why you were so confident. Did you believe that you brought a bunch of jerks?

Shake? What do you mean?

Don't break it. Because I've confirmed that there are about 20 or so humans at the entrance to the room.

If there are twenty people worthy of coming here... no way?

Something flashed through Jinhyuk's mind.

A faction that has not yet appeared in this raid.

'Dangun Guild.'

I thought it was on the side of Gandara and Main, but it seems they kicked the offer.

In large guilds, I thought that there were only those who were blinded by self-interest and did not choose any means and methods.

It seems that there are still some decent people out there.

If I hadn't been caught on a surprise attack, I would have really liked it.

shit.

You can see black liquid gathering around the Wailing Witch.

He is trying to activate the worst skill he has, 'Black Tears'.

This is dangerous.

You caught it! Avoid it!

Jinhyuk shouted.

At the same time.

KwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwa!

Black waves flooded towards the entrance.

Uh... huh?

Bah, hyung Park. Something's coming!

Damn. Mana's canceling skill was overlooked.

Get your formation! Turn on all survival skills!

A scream erupted from the side of the Dangun Guild, which was hiding behind the stone statues of monsters.

Park Jeong-jin, who was at the forefront, stretched out a shield emitting a dazzling brilliance.

[Park Jeong-jin activates his unique ability 'Holy Bond'!]

The golden shield completely covered the entire raid centering on the shield.

Aww!

When the black wave and the divine shield collided, colorful sparks bounced in all directions.

...it was close.

Park Jeong-jin breathed a sigh of relief.

Drop the shield!

"Kang player Jinhyuk? Throw away your shield. What does that mean?"

Take it out right now!

Black tears were blocked, but not blocked.

This is because the true value is only realized when it comes into contact with the object.

tsutsutsutsutsu!

A special power that changes anything it touches.

Black tears belonged to the most heterogeneous axis among curses.

['Black Tears' seeped into the shield.]

[The shield is corrupted!]

When it touched a living thing, it caused a frenzy, optical illusion, and mutation.

Even when touching inanimate objects, he created all kinds of variables that are difficult to predict.

Truly unpredictable.

Therefore, the ripple effect of this ability was different from other abilities.

Even the Wailing Witch, who oversees the ability, was unable to completely control this ability.

Ke-e-e!

The shield's mouth opened and it started shaking.

There is absolutely no monster with sharp teeth and spitting black liquid.

Hey, this can't be.

Park Jeong-jin was startled and threw the shield away.

The ability to bring life to an item.

It was Park Jeong-jin, who thought he had experienced extraordinary abilities until now, but I swear this was the first time he had such a bizarre ability.

Even a single teardrop touched her skin, and one female player screamed sharply and twisted her body?

Turn it off... ah ah ah ah ah!

Cow, Song, come to your senses. Park hyung! You can't touch that body. People change like a zombie virus!

Hey, damn... Are you saying you can't stop it and you should avoid it?

It's an absurd ability.

The fact that it could not be stopped by the divine class meant that it could not be offset by any other ability.

The advantage of surprise has disappeared, and the space to avoid is not wide, so the advantage of numbers has become a weakness.

So, while everyone is panicking.

Tristan.

The Wailing Witch looked at Mine next to her.

Please speak.

Leave the troublemakers to you. The three humans I've dealt with before seem to have recovered, so don't forget to stop breathing.

Maria, Yoo Yeon-hwa, and Lee Tae-min were all ready to fight again.

It was thanks to Jinhyuk drinking the mana recovery pill he had additionally distributed and picking his breath.

Hmm. I don't think I'm going to have to deal with them all by myself, am I?

Chuckle. Will I send you alone? I'll give you a strong support. Don't worry too much. But, I'm a bit weak in intelligence, so I just want you to finish it properly.

It wasn't just the shields and players who were infected with Black Tears.

The reason for bringing stone statues of various monsters here.

It was meant to be used in this way.

[The sleeping monster statues awaken!]

Whoops! Whoops! Cuckoo!

Koooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Wow!

A huge number of monsters raised their bodies with their eyes flashing.

Ogres and trolls, Lizardmen and Menticores, etc.

All of them were medium-sized or higher-powered names, and they were specially selected by the Wailing Witch.

Ugh...

Park Jeong-jin bit her lower lip.

I came here to help Jin-hyeok, but I got stuck behind my back without even being able to help.

Bah, hyung Park.

At least we have to take the time. At least not be in the way.

If you deal with monsters, it will be possible to make Jinhyeok focus on 1:1 confrontation with the boss.

That alone was reason enough to come here.

'If I can somehow join the three people over there, I'll be able to last as long as possible.'

If you add Lee Tae-min's drones and Yoo Yeon-hwa's tanking Maria's firepower, even medium-sized monsters won't be easily defeated.

The worries didn't last long.

I'll make a way over there. I'll lead the way, so you guys cover the flanks.

Damn. He said he would only let me walk on the flowery path.

When I die, I will become a bachelor's ghost and follow you. Keep in mind. I haven't even gotten married yet.

Are you concerned about other humans?

The Wailing Witch opened her mouth.

Not really. Everyone can protect one body.

Fufu. You look pretty impatient for that. But don't be too impatient. The guys who came here will meet each other in the underworld anyway.

I'm sorry, but I'm from Confucianism. I'll send the oldest one first, like Jang Yu Yuseo.

Really. You and your viewers, you have a knack for scratching your temper. Do you think you can kill me just because you defeated the apostle? Seriously?

I wouldn't have come here if you weren't able to cook on my own.

Jinhyuk shrugged.

Okay... Treasured sword to see where I can get my first move. Please, I hope you can live up to half and half of your expectations. So as not to be too boring.

Whoops.

The worn-out arm moved to the left.

[The curse 'Blood Melting' is activated!]

Five Mangseong fell under Jinhyuk's feet.

A curse that dissolves all hemoglobin in the blood, a 4-star 'amplification'

The efficiency was maximized by overlapping the barrier.

[The effect of curses and barriers increases by 30% due to 'Pollution Stats'!]

It is a bonus that the effect of unique stats is also added.

It's too late now. It can't be avoided or stopped.

A fishy smile hung on the witch's lips.

uuung!

The red light flickered.

By the way.

Hmm?

The Wailing Witch tilted her head.

Clearly, the magic was performed properly, but it was because the opponent who had to vomit blood from his eyes and mouth was perfectly fine.

what?

It didn't take long for him to realize the true identity of the deep sense of incongruity.

no way .

You ruined my rite...? As soon as you saw the pattern...?

It's absolutely unbelievable.

Is it sensible to identify and analyze a technique that can combine thousands or tens of thousands of combinations in less than a second?

Even worn-out witches prepare in advance through a defensive barrier. After allowing the opponent's attack, he did not destroy it.

Because it was too risky.

Well, it's not that great. I've been studying barriers a lot lately. Damn, it's a field I'm confident about.

Don't be ridiculous! You mean that my skills are so weak that you can recognize it just by flipping through a few books or pages!

If you feel uncomfortable, why don't you come up with a better combination? It's not easy to read because it uses a 4-star barrier.

A soft light rose from Jinhyuk's shoulder.

The ancient runes bloomed with a splendid appearance.

"Is it some kind of engraving ? It was your barrier company. Yeah. That's why it was so eloquent."

Hey. Still, it looks like the eyes aren't knotholes.

Even though I didn't want to know that it was the imprint of the moon.

It's great to know that this is a mark of barrier company.

It seems that he wasn't a complete kid. Oh. As you said, if you have shallow knowledge about barriers, I'll raise the difficulty a little more.

The Wailing Witch moved her hands this time.

Pants!

The runes were overlaid over the five-mangseong Fortress, and three barriers were stretched next to it.

Because two hands were used, the speed of calculation and the completeness of the operation were several times higher than before.

No matter how much barriers are their business, they will not be able to get out of here alive.

kukuku kuk kuk!

The entire ruins were in turmoil.

Due to the mixture of sticky mana and curse, it felt like my skin was going to burn.

indeed .

Seeing how to activate the advanced magic through multiple calculations, I thought that the three witches are witches.

How skilled do you have to be to be able to do that? I thought that

sure.

From a standpoint overlooking such a state... . It was just an extraordinary level, though.

Moment.

In the center, which is the base of the Five Mangseong, there is a crack and a crack.

What, what?

The Wailing Witch, confident of victory, opened her eyes.

['Moon Imprint' will bloom.]

kwaduduk!

kwaduk!

The three barriers were shattered like windows.

Didn't I tell you to fight with a slightly stronger barrier?

Over Jinhyeok's shoulder, barriers in the form of six planets began to appear one by one.

three four and five.

When the number of barriers reached ten, the Wailing Witch's mouth was open blankly.

What I meant was to do your best.

Jinhyuk snapped his fingers.

huuuuuuoooooooooooooooooooo

This time, the runes I saw for the first time were drawn at the feet of the Wailing Witch.

It is similar to the five mangseong used a while ago.

Hey, that's all...!

The success of building barriers is not high.

He was so weak that there was no need to compare it to anything like a curse.

If you want to destroy it, you can do anything.

If you are a member of the Great Witch Society... ! Something like this could be turned to dust in one fell swoop!

However.

uh?

Aww!

A huge explosion occurred even before the structure of the formula could be ripped open.

Gagging. Cool! Keek!

The Wailing Witch staggered through the smoke and leapt out the other side.

Only doubts appeared on his face, stained with embarrassment.

why.

Why the hell?!

You didn't understand the link between the most basic of the spells?

right then

A shrill voice was heard from behind.

Again, it doesn't matter how many star barriers you have or how powerful curses you mix.

That combination is important.

No matter how insignificant or low-level barriers are, if they are combined with barriers or curses that fit the situation, they can exert more power.

If you want to fight me properly, bring out the Black Tears. Otherwise, the story will not progress.

Profit! Do you dare give a lecture to me? There is no need to bring out even black tears. You can tear them apart with just my pure skill!

[The Curse 'Gorgeous Type (車裂刑)' is activated!]

[The 7-star barrier 'Proliferation' is activated!]

Numerous runes embroidered the air.

The red pentagonal stars were dizzyingly scattered.

The ten barriers that Jinhyeok had previously deployed were too many for one barrier company to handle, but this was more than 30 times that number.

Because the color of the sky was about to change.

...that's spectacular.

Jinhyuk let out a small exclamation.

It is not easy to see such a large number of colorful and small barriers.

Heo Eok. Heo Eok ... Kuk. Kkkkkkal! Have you seen it! This is me! I am the one who received the title of 'Wailing' from the Great Witch Association!

The Wailing Witch let out a tearful laugh.

Writhe in pain and die. Young barrier. This is the difference between the Great Witch and the milky baby.

hands face up

The rites were about to be activated with a bright light all at once.

But that was then.

[The 9-star barrier 'The Zodiac Sign (黃道十二宮), Scorpio's barrier' is activated.]

[4-star barrier 'high-speed replacement (高速置換) is activated.]

Suddenly, one color of the red pentagon star changed to blue.

This happens only when a new man intervenes.

It also meant that the owner of the drink had changed.

Soon after, the color of the reddish sky began to change as if it had been infected.

I can't even say it. It can't be possible. Something like this... Something like this...

Calculation speed... ridiculously fast

Whether it's a curse, a barrier, or a spell created through a combination of the two.

All the clans that are activated are being destroyed.

like that.

The scene where countless red pentagonal stars are replaced by countless blue pentagonal stars .

I dare not even describe it in words as a minister.
