Chapter 373
—————————————
[ (side story) How could you not know? ]
The Allied fleet struck the walls of the fortress city and collapsed them.
-Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
At almost the same time as the conflict, Redfinger’s colossal unit, which emerged from the fortress city, began attacking the Allied fleet.
-Kwaaaaa!!
-Kwaaaaa!!
Redfinger’s giant soldiers opened their mouths and roared ferociously.
Holes were opened throughout the Demon King’s barrier, and the giant soldiers who entered them began to destroy the ship at random.
Fortunately, the Dimensional Allied Forces also dispatched the Giant God Soldiers in time.
-Chaaaaaaaa!
Gigas passed by and cut off one of the bandit’s necks.
Fuuuuuuu!
Leaving behind the powerful explosion, Daein rushed towards his next opponent.
[Where are the illegally manufactured counterfeits?]
Every time the Great Man aboard the Gigas swung his sword, the limbs of the Giant God Soldiers sent out by Red Finger were cut off or caught in the explosion.
-Bubbaebung! Bubble bubbling!
Although the performance of the newly produced Gigas was superior to that of the past, Redfinger’s giant soldiers could not match the speed and output of the Gigas at all.
[conflict! He’s fine, but he’s just an empty gangster!]
[They’re weaker than I thought?]
[Don’t be scared! Our aircraft performance is overwhelming!]
Other pilots were in a similar situation. Although Redfinger’s giant soldiers were numerous, they could not match those of the Allied Forces in terms of performance.
Daein quickly understood the reason.
‘These are not proper giant spirits.’
The Allied Forces’ Giant God Soldiers were war robots created by combining the magic engineering technology of the dimensional hub, but those that rose from the underground of the fortress city were biological weapons that strengthened living creatures with drugs and machines.
‘A clumsy clone created using Soul Eater’s favorite biological experimentation technology.’
However, no matter how clumsy a clone was, it was a huge threat if the number exceeded ten times that number.
Especially if that number is increasing.
-Kwaaaaaah!
-Kwaaaaaah!
The number of enemy giants continued to increase, and they attacked the Allied forces’ giants from all directions with overwhelming numbers.
In particular, dozens of Red Finger’s Giant God Soldiers attacked and pressed down on the Daein’s Gigas, who were active at the forefront.
[Are these crazy? Why so recklessly…. No way?]
Feeling ominous, Daein hurriedly raised the barrier to the maximum.
At that moment, dozens of enemy giant monsters charging at him exploded at the same time.
-Paaaaaaa!
The light flashed and the ensuing tremendous shock wave shook the fortress city.
A moment later, a blackened Gigas appeared at the scene of the explosion.
[These crazy people…]
The person reacted quickly, so there was no major damage, but the explosion was so strong that the shock was transmitted to the cockpit, causing all of the bones to tingle.
If the response had been a little late, Gigas might have been destroyed in half.
[Where is that child?]
The great man turned his head and looked for the prophet’s location.
He was looking this way with his back turned from the top of the red tower in the center of the city.
Eat.
With a laughable smile.
…After experiencing it myself, I don’t usually get angry.
[Wow… Just stay right there, you bastard.]
The great man tried to fly straight towards the prophet. But once again, more than a dozen giant monsters blocked the way
– Wow!
-Kwaaaaaah!
There was no end to killing or killing. They attacked as if they were determined to die.
Moreover, the enemy was not just the Giant God Soldiers.
“For His glory!”
“Defend the final temple with your life!”
“Wow!”
As the Dimensional Allied Forces fleet broke through the walls of the fortress city and entered, Red Finger’s warriors began to shout and jump on the broken walls.
The warriors did not spare their lives. They didn’t care if the pouring bombardment reduced them to dust and their comrades next to them turned to blood as they got caught up in the battle with the giant god soldiers.
Of the 100 warriors, only five survived and made it aboard the Allied fleet.
However, as the numbers gradually piled up, the melee that Redfinger wanted unfolded.
“Find the cockpit!”
“Take control of their fleet!”
“He will take care of us!”
A veritable feast of madness and violence.
Even veterans of the Allied Forces who had experienced countless hardships were sent shivers down their spines by the fanatics’ assault tactics that were tantamount to mass suicide.
The top of the red tower.
At the highest point of the battlefield, a prophet with the same face as a great man was looking down at everyone with a wry smile.
[Wow, that…]
The great man felt moved as he looked at the prophet.
In the end, I think it’s just a matter of lying down and spitting…
[You’re a really bad bastard, right?]
Since the opponent was the opponent, it didn’t seem like it would be a fight that would end as easily as I thought.
***
“Prophet! “The performance of the demon soldier army is amazing!”
Even though the high priest reacted with joy as if he had already won the war, the prophet had a calm expression.
“Yes, it’s just buying time.”
Demon God Soldier.
A work that copies the Colossus technology, the most powerful force of the Dimensional Allied Forces, and adds Redfinger’s biological experiment technology to it.
If they had had enough time, they could have completed a more powerful demon army, but unfortunately, they were not given that time.
“The demon bottle is still unfinished. “You can only move properly in this place where his power is within your reach.”
Even its performance was far inferior to that of the Allied forces’ giant soldiers.
Right now, we are pushing ahead with an overwhelming amount of volume, but even that will soon reveal its limits.
‘…It’s really strong.’
The prophet looked at the giant demon soldiers who were overwhelming the demon demon soldiers with admiring eyes.
The Allied Forces’ Giant God Soldiers numbered at most a few dozen, but each and every one of them was one of the strongest soldiers in the Allied Forces.
The gap was clear from the fact that while over 100 demonic soldiers were defeated, not a single giant demonic soldier was defeated.
‘Especially…’
The majesty of Gigas slaughtering the demon soldiers at the forefront was overwhelming.
Every time he swung his sword, the demon soldiers around him fell like fallen leaves in the autumn wind.
At that time, Gigas glared at the prophet and shouted.
[You man! Don’t laugh with that mean face! Because I’m embarrassed! All of this will be recorded in the video later!]
“…Tsk. “He is a very frivolous person.”
They were two men who were somehow ashamed of each other.
It was then.
-Hold on!
The prophet’s expression was distorted by the pounding headache that came again.
“Ugh….”
“Seo Prophet! Are you okay?”
The high priest stood next to him, not knowing what to do. The prophet shook his hand away and let out a long breath.
“…It is nothing.”
“Seo Prophet. What should we do now?…”
The high priest looked around the battlefield with a frightened face.
For a short time, we had the upper hand due to the number of demonic soldiers.
Due to the activities of the Giant God Soldiers led by Gigas, the number of Demon God Soldiers was rapidly decreasing, and Red Finger’s warriors were also being pushed out by the elite troops of the Allied Forces.
“If this goes on, we will…”
‘This coward just bluffed that he would stay and fight.’
The prophet’s eyes turned cold as he looked at the terrified high priest.
“If I make any mistake…”
the prophet forced a smile and said to the high priest who was trembling at the look in his eyes.
Anyway, he’s still a useful old man.
“No need to worry. Soon he will be resurrected.”
“That person…!”
The prophet spoke as he gently placed his hand on the shoulder of the high priest, who was trembling with emotion.
“So encourage the priests and warriors. Your place will be prepared at his left hand.”
“…yes! Please leave it to us! “I will personally lead the warriors!”
The high priest went down the tower to encourage the warriors with a very flushed expression.
“…….”
After the high priest disappeared from sight, the prophet turned around with a cold expression, as if the smile from before was a lie.
The prophet could feel it.
The roots of the Demon Tree are writhing violently in the basement of the Red Tower.
-Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle.
This entire subspace was a temple prepared to resurrect ‘Him’.
The souls and blood of warriors who died fighting the Allied Forces are all sucked into the Demon Tree and become nutrients to nourish the Demon Tree.
The magic tree that has absorbed enough nutrients will soon revive the eggs it contains.
-Ddddddddddddd!
-Ddddddddddddd!
-Ddddddddddddd!
All the roots and branches of the magic tree were trembling, heralding the resurrection of ‘him’ who was approaching.
The Prophet muttered quietly to himself.
“It may not be a perfect resurrection, but… it’s not the time to discuss this or that right now.”
-Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
Even at this moment, the Allied fleet was advancing closer and closer, destroying the fortress city.
No matter how much Redfinger’s fanatics said they were not afraid for their lives, that didn’t mean much in the face of the overwhelming power difference.
However, ironically, as Red Finger’s followers died, the Demon Tree absorbed more nutrients.
When the Allied fleet destroyed more than half of the fortress city and entered,
“…has it begun?”
-Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
A vibration that seems to turn the world upside down.
The Demon Tree in the basement of the Red Tower began to spread out its branches and wrap around the tower, and soon its huge body was revealed.
And ‘his’ voice echoed throughout subspace.
[[The time of resurrection has arrived.]]
[[You foolish creatures. Worship your God.]] As
the voices of Baal and Soul Eater echoed throughout subspace, the magical power of the remaining demon soldiers and warriors increased explosively.
Wow!!
“Ooooooo!!”
All of Redfinger’s believers howled and screamed in frenzy.
However, in the center of the chaos, the prophet muttered alone in an empty voice.
“He will be born soon.”
In fact, he was not interested in anything like God.
An empty space of memory.
The only way to regain his memories was to resurrect ‘him’, so he became a prophet and created this huge organization.
‘I’m not interested in right or wrong.’
What is your name?
Where were you born and what kind of life did you live?
Who is that sad, crying child who sometimes appears blurry in my dreams?
That was all the prophet wanted to know.
-Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
[[The god who will rule the universe is resurrected here!]]
[[We will create a new order of the universe!]]
Cheeeeeeeek….
The egg of the demonic tree began to swell. Baal and Soul Eater became one and were growing rapidly.
The prophet dismissed the miracle as profane language.
“It looks like a bug trying to emerge from an egg.”
They believed that the Prophet was absolutely obedient to them, but that brainwashing had long since been lifted.
It’s just that I haven’t found another way to retrieve my memories yet.
[[O Prophet! Come here!]]
[[Become part of us and become complete!]]
Two beings simultaneously reached out and called to the prophet.
【 Because of you, I will become perfect! 】
The prophet hesitated for a moment.
I knew that if I became one with them, I would never be able to return to the way I was.
But…
‘If I were to be defeated by the Allied Forces here, I would probably die anyway.’
Jump and jump.
The Prophet started walking towards the egg.
If I become one with them, wouldn’t I be able to at least know the truth that they know?
‘Or it wouldn’t be a bad idea to just disappear like this.’
I had no regrets about my life, which was like an empty shell.
It was when the prophet walked towards the egg with a somewhat tired expression.
“Stop it!”
Stand tall.
The prophet stopped walking at the familiar voice.
When he slowly turned his head, he saw So Shin-han, completely injured, struggling to breathe.
‘To get here, you would have had to deal with priests and warriors… Was that guy that strong?’
When the prophet looked at Sosinhan with a puzzled expression, Sosinhan shouted again.
“Please stop here! “You’re not the type of person to do something like this!”
“…Do you know me?”
“Of course I know!”
Seeing that the subject was not surprised even if he collapsed at any moment, Sosinhan was looking at the prophet with pity.
“He’s my idol and hero. “How could you not know?”
“…….”
The prophet still had an expressionless face.
