Chapter 70
Episode 70 Assassination Mission (3)
– Baek Woo-jin! Lower your momentum!
‘hmm…’
Baek Woo-jin came to his senses and calmed down his anger at the shout of darkness.
-The moment your identity is discovered, everyone here will turn into hostages. Now is not the time to give in to anger!
‘sorry.’
Baek Woo-jin apologized honestly and took a deep breath.
What darkness said was right.
Now was not the time to move carelessly.
‘Are these people brainwashed?’
-He is possessed by black magic. You could think of it as hypnosis.
A hundred people were wearing clothes that looked like straw, staring into space with blank eyes.
“Draw four circles here.”
“It must be completed within one hour. Move faster!”
“All right!”
Those who appeared to be the necromancer’s disciples were using tools to draw misshapen shapes on the floor.
-Command line.
‘Command line?’
-Seeing as the Jin has five angles, it looks like the souls of those people will be amplified and then fed to the spirits.
The voice of darkness was burning with anger.
-If your soul is eaten by the command within the command center, you cannot be saved. You will have to suffer in its stomach until the spirit disappears. The necromancers of your world are truly terrible people.
‘Those trash…’
Baek Woo-jin gritted his teeth.
I wanted to show myself right away and kill everyone inside, but I couldn’t move because of the warriors guarding the inside.
-Be careful. They’re stronger than the guys waiting outside.
‘know.’
Just by looking at the flow of Aurors, it was clear that the soldiers inside were more skilled than the fighters outside.
-Looks like that guy is the leader.
I could tell right away who the darkness was talking about.
The strongest energy was felt in a middle-aged man sitting in a plastic box with a bored expression.
-If you had shown your momentum just 0.5 seconds longer, that guy would have caught you.
‘Is it level 6?’
-okay. He is similar to a guy named Kim Seong-je that I met before.
‘I’m in the middle of a mountain.’
There were not only necromancers and their disciples, but also strong warriors, so I had no idea how to move.
‘The biggest problem is people.’
The worst problem was the 100 people who couldn’t come to their senses.
I couldn’t see how to get through it.
“ha ha ha!”
‘Those damn bastards.’
Lee In-je and the five necromancers were laughing because they were having fun.
I wanted to break the backs of their heads.
-It will take time until the command line is completed. Before that, make sure you know this place.
‘okay.’
Baek Woo-jin slowly looked at the abandoned buildings and thought about how he should move.
‘Even if I use the terrain, I can’t see a way. I don’t think I can get them all.’
Unfortunately, it seemed impossible to save everyone.
-I will solve that. I think you can do it now.
‘What can you do?’
-I’ll tell you about that later. First, deal with those who stand guard outside.
‘Can we really solve this situation?’
-Of course.
Baek Woo-jin nodded his head and went out of the magic circle at Darkness’s firm answer.
‘I have to believe what you say.’
**
“Huam….”
Kim Hyeong-woo, a member of the Bergen mercenary group, barely suppressed a yawn as he looked at the abandoned building.
“I don’t know who’s giving this shit who would be here at this hour.”
An abandoned building in the middle of the night, and it’s also on a mountain.
It was time, but the area around the mountain was almost a no-go zone due to the danger of monsters and dungeons, so there was no way anyone could come.
“You bastards.”
I was annoyed by the boredom, but I was even more annoyed by the bugs that kept flying at me.
“I really need to earn a lot to get out of this place. No more… huh?”
Kim Hyeong-woo waved his hand at the bugs and realized that his colleague, who should have been on his right, was not visible.
“Where did this bastard go…”
When Kim Hyeong-woo was about to move to where his missing colleague was, Baek Woo-jin appeared behind him.
“Ugh….”
He covered Kim Hyeong-woo’s mouth and then stabbed him in the heart, killing him.
‘There are 12 people, including this guy.’
Baek Woo-jin assassinated all the soldiers who were hiding without revealing themselves to anyone.
It took him less than 5 minutes to process 12 people.
-Are you not planning on becoming an assassin? You’re really talented.
The darkness was not joking.
Baek Woo-jin had an excellent sense of recognizing the moment the target was let down and the cool-headedness to eliminate the target without hesitation.
‘Don’t talk nonsense. ‘What on earth are you going to do inside?’
-Do you remember Seomya?
‘Of course I remember.’
-That’s the second time. I’ll let you use the second sword.
The voice of darkness was more serious than ever.
‘Second sword?’
-It may be a little early, but I have faith that you can handle it well at this point.
‘If it’s as powerful as Seomya, it can’t be used there. ‘People are dangerous.’
-My second sword can only attack the target you specify.
‘Is that possible?’
-okay. It is a secret attack that attacks the designated target with your and my auras. The accuracy is high and the power against a single object is better than Seomya.
‘ah…’
Baek Woo-jin’s eyes sparkled.
If what the darkness says is true, we can kill all the enemies there and save only the hostages.
Although he has shown a lot of funny sides recently, Darkness’ true identity is the strongest magic sword.
He couldn’t help but believe what he said.
-The name of the second sword is Armin (暗刃). With your senses and auras that have reached that level, you can definitely use it.
‘I’ll be able to use it. No. I have to write it. must.’
Baek Woo-jin pulled himself together and took out his flip phone and made a call.
[This is Lee Young-hyeon, head of the search department.]
A middle-aged man’s voice came from the phone.
“There is an abandoned building on the west side of Siseongsan Mountain in Yongin, Gyeonggi-do. “Necromancers are gathered inside and about 100 people are captured.”
[A necromancer on Mt. Sisheng? 100 people? Is that true?]
“I will take care of the necromancer, so just recover the people and send them home.”
[Who on earth are you…]
Pop.
Baek Woo-jin hung up the phone after saying what he wanted to say.
-Is this the guy you saw back then?
‘okay. He is definitely someone you can trust.’
Baek Woo-jin put his cell phone in his pocket and entered the magic circle again.
“hmm….”
Lee Young-hyeon, head of the association’s criminal search department, looked at his cell phone with a serious expression.
“Chief. Aren’t you coming home from work? “It’s already midnight…”
Kang Hyo-seop, now in his third year, rubbed his sleepy eyes and called out Lee Young-hyun.
“Hyo-seop.”
“yes?”
“Gather all the kids in the association now.”
“I think it would be better to hold the meeting tomorrow….”
“Shut up. “Call everyone in the tracking team, investigation team, and processing team and gather them in front of the main gate!”
“yes!”
Seeing Lee Young-hyun’s serious look, Kang Hyo-seop kicked out the office door.
“It’s definitely him.”
Even though he did not reveal his identity, Younghyun Lee was able to figure out who was calling him.
His tone and voice were similar to when we met before.
“Baek Woo-jin!”
**
While Lee Young-hyun and the criminal search department were busy moving around, Baek Woo-jin was looking down at the first floor from the second floor of an abandoned building.
‘I’ve finished figuring out mana.’
In order to use Armin, you had to understand the flow of the enemy’s mana.
It was a difficult task, but Baek Woo-jin finished it in an instant with his crazy mana sensitivity.
-You’re turning into a monster so quickly.
Baek Woo-jin’s sense of mana really seemed to be increasing day by day.
He even thought that in a few years he might catch up with his locative abilities.
-It looks like the command line will be activated now, so let’s get ready.
‘okay.’
Baek Woo-jin and Heuk-am decided to use Dark Man at the moment when the command line was about to be activated.
Because this was the moment when they were most likely to let down their guard.
Wooooow!
A purple light began to flicker in the command center.
The eyes of people bathed in that light began to turn purple.
-Now!
At the moment when everyone’s attention was focused on the command center, Baek Woo-jin stretched out his hand and grabbed the darkness.
Whoa!
The size of the darkness, which was a small dagger, grew to the size of a small sword.
An unknown character appeared on the blade and began to emit light.
‘Ugh!’
I felt a wave of terrifying power coming from the darkness.
Just holding it made my hands shake.
-Come to your senses!
‘know!’
Baek Woo-jin grasped everyone’s mana in a split second and activated Dark Man.
Dantian’s aura began to be sucked away like crazy by the darkness.
It was to the point where I lost my mind.
Hahaha!
People’s eyes turned to Baek Woo-jin’s direction at the sight of the giant auror’s movement, but the dark man’s actions had already ended.
[The second sword of darkness, the Dark Sword of Chansal, is unlocked.]
The world slowed down, as if it had stopped.
The shadows of the enemies that Baek Woo-jin recognized shimmered like ghosts.
Sigh!
A sword of the same shape as the darkness rose from within the shadow.
It was a speed and angle that even unmanned people, let alone wizards, could not react to.
‘That’s incredible.’
It looks like a sword, but it is not a sword.
That was a condensation of mana mixed with himself and the aura of darkness.
“Wow!”
“Ahh!”
A few warriors responded to the cancer man, but they were unable to overcome the power contained within and their necks were pierced.
The cancer man possessed a power greater than speed.
“Kwaaaak!”
“Ugh!”
“Ugh!”
30 of the 32 enemies lost their breath at once.
“What the hell is this!”
“Ugh!”
Those who survived were Lee In-seong and Park In-seop, the head of the Verzen mercenary group, whose purple spirit stopped the cancer.
-It’s a shame. We didn’t provide enough firepower because of the hostages.
If the cancer man had unleashed his full power, no one would have survived.
Because of the hostages, the lives of those two are at stake by increasing accuracy and controlling power.
“Hehe….”
Lee In-seong was fine thanks to his commander’s help, but Park In-seop’s entire left arm was blown off.
Absolutely!
Baek Woo-jin took out his sword and threw a lightning bolt at Lee In-seong and Park In-seop.
Sigh!
The purple energy that spread around Lee In-seong absorbed the lightning island, and Park In-seop barely managed to block the lightning island with a swing of his sword.
“Hey!”
The spirit that blocked the sword energy fell out of Lee In-seong’s body, probably because its strength had run out.
-The command has been given! Attack now!
When Baek Woo-jin was about to target Lee In-seong, Park In-seop jumped and threw a knife at Baek Woo-jin.
Whoops!
Even though one of his arms was cut off, Park In-seop’s sword was full of strength.
“What was the sword technique just now? “Try it again!”
There was madness in Park In-seop’s eyes.
Even though he was fatally injured, he looked more lively than when I first saw him.
“Ugh!”
Lee In-seong ran outside without even looking back.
-Lee In-seong can catch up. Deal with this guy first. People will be in danger if this guy is left alone!
‘know!’
Black flames rose from Baek Woo-jin’s sword.
“You were the youngest of the Baek family! “I’ll fight you and…”
“I’m sorry, but I’m in a hurry.”
Two meteors fell from Baek Woo-jin’s sword.
“Shut up and die.”
**
“Huh!”
Lee In-seong climbed up the mountain with all his might.
He operated Haste and even used Blink to erase his traces.
“It’s him! Baek Woo-jin!”
He was clear.
Baek Woo-jin was the only swordsman in the world who used black aura.
“How could that guy….”
However, I did not understand how Baek Woo-jin came to find me.
In fact, he still had no idea what had happened.
“Zach!”
Lee In-seong called his command, but there was no response as to where he had gone.
“Damn it!”
Baek Woo-jin had tremendous water resistance, so he couldn’t fight back, and he couldn’t contact anyone to ask for help right now.
He had no choice but to run away.
“Let’s at least contact those guys…what!”
When Lee In-seong reached the top of the mountain, he felt a huge morale behind him that he had never felt before.
Goooooh.
Sagi, who had such a terrible energy that it took his breath away, landed in front of Lee In-seong.
“Now Zach?”
Lee In-seong’s eyes grew so big that they seemed like they were about to pop out.
He said that it was his mid-level spirit, Jacques, who had enormous morale.
This guy appeared with incredible morale that surpassed the level of a senior commander.
“Hahaha!”
After checking the status of his commander, Lee In-seong burst into laughter.
His own spirit ate the souls of the 30 people who had just died and even ate the spirits that had lost their masters, thereby increasing his power.
“Good job. “You did a great job!”
After becoming a senior commander, Jacques’ morale rose to a level he would only reach by honing his necromantic skills for five years.
It was a huge success amidst his crisis.
“In this state, someone like Baek Woo-jin can be killed in an instant.”
“Did we just go this far?”
When Lee In-seong’s lifeless eyes were shining, Baek Woo-jin appeared.
Hot blood was flowing down his sword.
“Let’s get this over with.”
“okay. “I have to finish it.”
Lee In-seong smiled full of confidence.
“Your life.”
A purple energy arose beneath Lee In-seong’s feet.
It looked like a purple waterspout was gushing out.
Goooooh.
The purple energy that was like fog began to take shape.
A translucent demon appeared, with ten horns sprouting from his forehead and a huge mace in his hand.
“Thanks to you, my plan has been moved forward by 5 years.”
“….”
Baek Woo-jin didn’t say anything to Lee In-seong’s leisurely words.
He just looked at his commander with blank eyes.
Seeing that, Lee In-seong’s smile grew even deeper.
“Whether you use a high-level spirit or 7th grade swordsmanship, you cannot defeat a high-level spirit. “Your soul will also become Zach’s prey!”
Lee In-seong thought he had already won this fight.
This is because no matter what Baek Woo-jin does, he cannot defeat the materialized superior command.
“You can’t be a high-level spirit and you can’t even be a level 7 swordsman?”
A cold smile appeared on Baek Woo-jin’s lips.
Quaaaaa!
A wall of flames burning behind him, much larger than his spirit.
Coo coo coo coo.
A red-flame dragon was revealed that would tear down the wall of flame and burn the world.
“So does this guy work?”
