Chapter 502 Gedrick’s Soul Fragment
The land of the black dead. I’ve seen something like that. It was the ancient monster I met before, the King of the Dead, or the first Necromancer.
‘The ability he was using was to absorb life force.’
He was maintaining his already dead body with the vitality of another target. He also has the cursed cloak he got back then, so that’s for sure.
The form is different, but the function is the same, so I didn’t have to say how dangerous it was.
“It’s so ominous!”
“I don’t know what a mess this is! It would frighten even the spirits.”
Nagma, the holy mage, and Shile, who deals with spirits, also noticed the danger and started running.
The energy of death quickly invades the village. The destination is fixed. Gravestones are installed throughout the village. You just need to follow the text that burns in purple.
As soon as I arrived at the next tombstone, I read the contents. I guess I shouldn’t just pass by. Didn’t the light shine on the next tombstone only after reading the writing earlier?
It’s probably in the form of a tombstone telling you where you can escape if you read the contents.
For fearing that someone might not be a demon, making a ruin like this. I broke my teeth, but now I can’t help it.
At that time, it was somehow blocked by divine power, but this time the form is different. As much as it’s a ruin, I don’t know how it works.
Anyway, since it was made by demons, it seems like it will be covered with the opposite divine power.
‘I don’t know what these guys are like.’
Let’s say that Nagma, the holy mage, somehow manages to make a one-hundred step concession. Then what about Shile?
This guy is the only link with the collapsed mage tower. Not only is it not as powerful as the church, but it doesn’t show itself externally because it doesn’t have a bad relationship with the church. That means we never know when we’ll see each other again.
There’s no need to take the risk.
Besides that.
‘To clear the ruins, it’s better to proceed as planned.’
There is also a way to ignore it and solve it by force, but it takes a long time. No one knows where the treasures of the ruins might be in town.
Of course, in the worst case, there was a possibility that there would be no compensation at all. In the first place, most of the treasures of the ruins are items that should not be passed on to others, or things that are kept secretly hidden from others to protect the ruins.
If it was made by a nasty bastard with stupid words, there was a possibility that it was just a trap. It looks like it’s not here.
Didn’t you openly say that it was the hometown of the dead? It is also the hometown of the commander of the 3rd Corps of the Demon Realm. Whatever it is, it will be there.
I read the sentences on the tombstone in succession.
-Those who defy death, endure loneliness.
-To reach the abyss at the bottom of the swamp you are sinking into.
-Come to me who rejected even the arranged peace.
Now there is only one tombstone left.
It was the largest tombstone in the center of the village, and most of the village was stained black. The safest place is here.
“He who proves, I lead the way.”
I shouted out the words written on the tombstone without hesitation.
-Kurrureurreung!
The tombstone gave off an ominous light and the surroundings shook.
The ground sinks around where we stand. Are you going downstairs?
“Keep your mind straight. You never know what will come out.”
“I’m still tense.”
“I never thought there would be such a function. Did you know that you came here?”
prepare each one
No matter how far down he went, the shaking stopped and the inside was reflected.
What was prepared under the ghost town was like a castle. Smoothly trimmed floors and towering pillars.
A blue lantern ignited itself and illuminated the space.
“That’s it.”
What you see at the end of the corridor is an altar made of skeletons. To be precise, it was shaped like a coffin, but above it, a complex magic circle was wriggling in the shape of a sphere.
It rises like flames and touches the ceiling is an ominous black aura. It wasn’t difficult to realize the cause of the strange phenomenon of draining life force.
[Aurora Beam (S) Lv.10+]
-Chiyuuuuuuu!
I immediately fired an aurora beam. As soon as the ray of light that flew with fierce force was about to reach the magic sphere.
Kaaaaang!
The protective shield flashed with a roar.
Then it is. Could he have left the core of the ruins without any preparation?
It’s not that the damage is completely gone. Because there was a crack in the protective film that was tightly woven.
It fired beams without stopping. If once is not enough, pour in until it breaks through. Shile and Nagma cover their faces with their arms at the shockwave that explodes with the blast.
– Great. Quaang!
I aimed my fingertips at the nuclear core.
Numerous magic circles engraved in the air. Shadow blades also come randomly.
I didn’t know where I was, so I decided to keep it in check.
‘That’s too bad.’
I picked up a stone fragment rolling on the floor and threw it at him.
“There!”
He reacted right away and knocked out the fragments, but it was a bad choice.
The moment the stone was thrown, the time bomb was set and at the same time the enchantment slammed the firebomb.
-Quaaaaaaang!
A formidable explosion, though inferior to Fire Bomb, engulfed him.
It’s not an ordinary explosion.
[Love and Peace (S) Lv.10+]
It’s an explosion filled with divine power that kills the undead.
A guy who twists his body with a scream. Because of the indiscriminate shooting skills, conversely, it became more difficult to grasp my location.
If I had been paying attention, I could have seen a small piece of debris moving in the direction I was moving.
Although the prism rainbow provides complete concealment, I can’t help but leave traces of my movements.
-I reached the point
where I could break it, and I drove my sword into the back of his head.
A blow with the sword steel pulled out with divine power and the Hong Ye Cham added to it. It was an attack that no matter how hard his head was, he could not withstand it.
“Khaaaaaa!”
With a single scream, the boy’s body turned to bone powder and scattered.
I was worried that he might be resurrected, but his energy was completely gone.
“Whoa.”
He let out a small breath and drew his sword.
In a way, it was an acceptable victory, but it was not very satisfying. It should be a bit easier. I should have written more of what I could have written.
Looking back now, there were more ways to do it. You could draw out a specter and draw his attention, or you could use the crown of Magnarok like you used before to draw out the knowledge of the Cult of Ice and Fire.
“We can’t keep fighting like before.”
Didn’t you shoot the aurora beam first like a habit this time and stop it?
Of course, there was a shot to destroy the nuclear weapon, but I had to accept what I had to accept.
Not even the commander of the 3rd corps, but the guy who was a part of his soul also received an S-class skill. that too easily.
What if it was the 3rd Legion Cup? he’ll be even worse I don’t know if this result came out because he was particularly strong in magic skills.
Come to think of it, the aurora beam worked for Juheda, a worshiper of gold rank.
‘It means that each individual is different.’
Did you know that in the future, there might be enemies who do not work at all with magic? Conversely, a person who is immune to physical damage may come out.
The top is that you never know when someone will come out. I don’t know if I know their identities in advance, but that’s virtually impossible.
In other words, you have to devise a strategy according to the situation every time. At least you have authority, so you should be able to respond more comfortably than others.
My head was confused and I shook my head. In any case, since the enemy is captured, think about destroying the nuke.
-I
swung the Kwajik sword and broke the magic orb that emits ominous energy.
The energy that surged upward dissipated and the magic sphere stopped working. And.....
[Ruins cleared!]
[The blessing of Gedrick, commander of the 3rd corps.]
[The energy of the dead is raging!]
Reciprocity surged with the clearing of the ruins.
It seems to have been prepared for the existence of the undead like himself, but it didn’t mean much to me. There are too many divine powers.
Perhaps it felt that the energy of the dead could not penetrate my body, so it touched my body a few more times before it condensed into one crystal and fell.
[Fragments of the Dead (S)]
-A crystal made by grinding the grudges of thousands of the dead.
– The power of the dead is strengthened!
Not a bad thing.
It seems that we are almost done here.
“Everyone worked hard. Let’s get out.”
I turn my feet without regret.
[Gedrick noticed that part of his soul was missing!]
[Gedrick is enraged at the pain of his soul being ripped.]
[Gedrick will find the target who tore his soul.]
A notification came up.
