Chapter 727
Chapter 727 : Traitor (1)
‘Why are you here?’
A guy who expresses this line with only his eyes.
While I thought this guy might have some acting talent, I also understood his feelings.
Because he was unintentionally captured by the king, he didn’t even show his nose for several days.
It must have been a completely unexpected situation.
Well, it’s possible that they somehow got the information that they showed up in Area 5 before coming here…
‘Would I have been more surprised if that had happened?’
Well, I guess so.
I felt like why on earth was this bastard who was supposed to be in Area 5 here?
“Ah, it’s been a while.”
When I said this with a grin, the guy must have come to his senses and barely moved his muscles to respond.
“… fish sit. “I’ve received a lot of support recently.”
He was a guy who answered leisurely(?) as usual, but I could clearly see that he was not like that on the inside.
That’s why summons that have reached a certain level react and act according to the will of the summoner without any special commands.
and… .
“Pi Fishsit… .”
As soon as the guy let out an awkward laugh, the chimera he was riding pulled back its front paw and started to back away.
“Where are you going?”
When I ask him about destroying the corpse soldiers all around him with a single hammer blow, he even stutters to answer.
“Well… I think it’s cowardly to make a surprise attack at night… Piss… See you all next time!”
Does he even know what he is talking about?
Although it is unknown, the intuition of a warrior who never misses an opportunity was captured.
The ‘Necromancer’, who was supposed to be at the rear, appeared at the forefront.
To be honest, I don’t know why.
If I had to choose, I think it might just be because I wanted to show off…
Anyway, this isn’t important.
Excited—
If only I could break this damn pot here.
‘Well, that wouldn’t be that bad, right?’
No, I will correct it.
It’s not that bad, it’s the best situation.
After all, this guy is also the guy whose name was on my kill list.
“Where can you just go? “Come here for a moment.”
When the chimera called out with its outstretched hammer, it turned its back and started running away.
“No, it only takes a moment, so come here? Just talk about—.”
repeated words of persuasion, the feet of the four-legged chimera, which turned its back to the other side, only accelerated despite.
“I’m busy with work, so I’ll stop… !”
Let me just say something.
He’s really quick-witted.
“Behel—laaaaa!!”
Soon, it grows in size with [Giantization] and runs forward.
Well, since I’m out of the castle gate, there will be no one to stop the army of corpses…
‘I’ll stop it on my own. ‘This gave us enough time to prepare.’
Moreover, it was not like there was no contribution at all.
[Giantization] was used to increase the stride length, but it also had an unexpected effect.
Coo! Coo!
Just by running with heavy footsteps, corpses that have been modified for combat are trampled and exploded.
Just like this.
Kwasik-!
Oh, of course, the distance was not easily narrowed.
It would have been a great help if I had at least one movement skill like [Leap], but unfortunately, I couldn’t match my Shield Baba’s movement mechanism.
Kuung-! Kuung-!
So I dutifully followed him with my large body, and he did everything he could to make me fall.
“Abed Nekrapetto casted [Corpse Explosion].”
Explode the modified corpses and spew out poison.
“Abed Nekrapetto cast [Curse of Stone].”
Put on CC.
Either stand in front of a giant corpse monster and block it.
It creates a strange smoke screen that disturbs visibility, etc.
I did everything I could, but in terms of combat, it was impossible to stop Shield Baba, who was almost 70% complete.
“profit… ! “Isn’t this a foul?”
In a way, the outpouring of praise like this was all part of a set process.
A tank that couldn’t be stopped by any means was nothing short of a disaster for a ranged class.
“Just give up and stop! If you stop now, we will resolve it through conversation! “I swear on my warrior’s honor—.”
“Don’t lie! “You’re probably trying to have a physical conversation!”
How did you know?
Kuung-! Kuung-!
In the end, I also gave up on trying to appease through conversation and moved on in silence.
Actually, there was no need to rush.
Even if I just kept running like this, the distance slowly narrowed. It looks like their movement mechanism was as poor as mine…
‘It’s kind of funny.’
He used to be a guy with a lot more force.
Now, just seeing my face like this makes you turn your back and run away.
A lot of time has passed since then.
Kuung-! Kuung-!
Anyway, as the conversation continues and the distance is gradually narrowing, words of complaint come out of the guy’s mouth.
“Ahh! Bjorn Yandel… ! “Why are you here in the first place?”
“… huh?”
What does this mean again?
I don’t think I’m just saying this out of embarrassment.
“Everyone, try something! Are you going to let that monster run wild?”
A corpse collector who shouts as if talking to his colleagues.
However, no support magic came in or anyone appeared like a hero to save him, and the anger in his voice grew.
“Are you going to keep ignoring me? It’s your fault! “Since Bjorn Yandel is in Area 5, we decided to distract him by disturbing Area 9!”
Oh, did something like that happen?
It was like catching a rat while a cow was backing away, but in the end, my appearance in District 5 put a damper on their plans.
“Oppa, why is it our fault? “If you’re going to blame it, you should blame it on the leader or vice-leader.”
When she suddenly heard a voice, she looked up and saw a woman with a familiar face flying at a low altitude on one of her broomsticks.
Lyranne Vivian, the Screaming Witch.
“And we said it from the beginning. Don’t show up and stay behind. But I remember it was my brother who went out of his way to take the lead!”
“… Does it matter now! Why did it only show up now in the first place! Any magic is fine, so hurry and kill that guy—.”
“Eh… ? “I don’t like that.”
The Screaming Witch refused with a disgusted expression.
“…yes?”
“Don’t you remember that time? “How on earth are you supposed to stop a monster that uses magic and bounces back?”
It seemed like he was referring to the ‘essence of gachabon’ that had already disappeared, but it didn’t actually mean much.
Because I now have much better defense skills than that.
“The character cast [Scale of Greed].”
Therefore, I activated dragon mode in advance just in case one happens. Of course, this skill does not have a ‘reflection’ mechanism, but…
Actually, that doesn’t mean much.
There is a new effect for using [Aegis’s Dragon Armor], which allows you to build up a stack in proportion to the accumulated damage and then explode it all at once.
‘It’s a shame.’
I’d rather hit him a little and help him build up his stack.
Of course, I thought it would give goosebumps to my enemies.
But so what?
These are the facts—.
“So, hold my hand, brother.”
Huh?
“Holding hands?”
“If the two of you are going to ride it, you might have to push yourself a bit… but it’s not a situation where you can choose to do that, right?”
It was a conversation that made the barbarian who was listening crazy and excited.
‘Nimiral.’
These guys, who are known as Orculis elites, are thinking about running away? If things continued like this, I would end up staring at the roof like a dog chasing a chicken.
Thus… .
‘Oh, there was that.’
I threw the hatchet I took out from subspace forward with all my might.
Since I rarely have to use it in real life, I didn’t immediately think of it, but thanks to the time I practiced, the hatchet flew powerfully to the desired spot.
“Kyaaa!”
Vivian, who was trying to grab his hand, turns hastily and barely manages to avoid the hatchet.
and… .
“hurry!”
At the urging of the body collector, Vivien approaches again, extending her hand.
In response, I also threw the hatchet once more, and as if they were prepared, the shield immediately turned on.
Oh, of course it didn’t mean much.
It’s just a normal ax throwing without any help from skills.
Whoa!
Because excessively developed strength cannot be distinguished from skill.
Kwazizig-!
As expected, the protective shield breaks apart as soon as it is hit by the hatchet.
“Kya!”
The handle of the hatchet, which soon broke the protective shield and flew out, hit Vivien’s temple. Vivian screamed and fell from the broom and rolled on the floor.
and… .
“Holy shit!”
A body collector who only curses and continues to move forward without picking up his colleagues who fell behind while trying to save him.
“Oh, where are you going!!”
“… Oh, there’s nothing we can do about it! Even if a wizard can be replaced, I can’t!”
“Stop the damn thing and come! Come and take me for a ride! “You son of a bitch!!”
“Those who live will live…” ! Fishit… !”
The line was so dull that even I, who was following along, was dizzy.
“Hey! “You fucking idiot!!!”
In the end, Vivian screamed and spewed out words of resentment, but the body collector did not turn the chimera’s head.
***
Should we just go after the body collector like this?
Or should I make sure to catch at least one of them?
I was worried for a moment, but eventually I stopped in front of Vivien, who was sitting down with one of her ankles broken.
“Ha, this is ridiculous.”
After seeing such a shocking scene, did my legs lose strength without me even realizing it?
“…surrender.”
What do you mean, it’s not surrender, it’s defeat.
Trudging.
Vivian starts making a gnashing sound and grinding her teeth as she sees me approaching without saying a word.
Surprisingly, the subject of that hatred was not me.
“… Brother, can’t you just let me live? “I will definitely kill that bastard… huh?”
Eyes that convey 100% sincerity.
So, I thought it would be beneficial for me to just let them go.
but… .
“Yes, no.”
He flatly refuses and raises his hammer.
“No really… ! Oh, I can do anything you ask me to do… Huh?”
Vivien was trying to use her appearance and gender as weapons, but unfortunately, she was the wrong person.
That’s right, I am a K-Barbarian who was born and raised in Korea and knows what true gender equality is.
If I take the hammer away here, wouldn’t the men who have died so far feel unfair?
Slurp.
Men and women are equal.
The proof is that if you hit it with a hammer, both men and women’s heads will be smashed, especially—.
“Colleagues!! “I’m trying to go to where my colleagues are!!”
Huh?
When I stopped holding the hammer, Vivien slowly opened her tightly closed eyes and looked at me.
“… Oh no?”
Even in this situation, it’s hard to think about it.
“If you have something to say, say it quickly. “Because I don’t have time.”
“I can take you to where my colleagues are! Ah, safe and comfortable!”
Hmm… .
“Even if that’s not the case, we can help you in many ways! “Don’t you need a magic wizard?”
There is already a wizard.
“Especially because I would give up my soul if it meant catching that damn bastard… !”
What should I do with this?…
If I just cut off the head and chase after the body collector, I guess I’ll be able to follow him…
‘Let’s think about it for just 10 more seconds.’
It was a time when I thought about it over and over again during the given time.
“… Ship traitor!”
Vivien suddenly said something that made me tilt my head.
“… huh?”
“I can even tell you which of your colleagues is a traitor!”
… I guess I’ll have to listen to this first.
