Chapter 123 Knights TemplarAfter all, today was Sunday.
It is the very day the Lord has designated as a day of rest, and Mass is held in the church.
Originally, Notre-Dame Cathedral was visited by a lot of tourists, but Mass was being held, so around 11 a.m., quite a large crowd had gathered.
The awakened mana radar began to move.
“The guy is moving.”
Elodie Satchel had just reported to headquarters what Tae-Sung Yoon had discovered, and headquarters told them to wait for the next order.
But now there was no time to wait for such an order.
The situation is urgent, where is the time for reporting back to headquarters, meeting and making decisions?
Judging and making decisions on the spot.
“You two catch him and make sure it’s Carlo Moretti. I check the cathedral.”
Carlo Moretti terrorized the Al-Aqsa Mosque. Somehow, I was intrigued by the fact that he had come to Notre Dame Cathedral in Nice.
The rumor that Tae-Sung Yoon announced that explosives had been circulated in France also caught my heart.
Elodie Satchel called the leader of the GIGN special forces. Naturally, the current special forces also included explosives experts.
Taesung Yoon and Evelyn Rafaeli got out of the car and followed him.
didn’t go far
Looking at the mana radar, the unregistered Awakened moved from the Great Growth to the orphanage.
But no matter where he looked, he was nowhere to be seen.
The mana radar does not provide three-dimensional coordinates. Of course, it grasps a three-dimensional space, but the GPS and radar functions display it in two dimensions.
Of course not in the air.
“Go underground. It seems that the cathedral and the orphanage are connected by an underground passage.”
Nice Cathedral is also very long and has experienced all kinds of events.
Usually, the cathedral was used as a relief station or shelter in wars, etc., and there was a good reason for the existence of a hidden underground room or passage for escape.
The two went straight to the orphanage. Then the nun caring for the children in the orphanage looked at them.
“who are you? The cathedral is over there.”
How can I convince him? Tae-Sung Yoon just said it directly and simply.
“At the moment, terrorism is expected in this area. Sister, hurry up and take her children and get away from the cathedral as far as possible.”
At the same time, Elodie Satchel also started introducing the people gathered in the cathedral using special forces.
“Hurry up!”
Yoon Tae-sung spoke with a tense expression and tone, but the nun seemed not to know English.
Then Evelyn Rafaeli spoke in French, and the nun’s expression turned blue.
They fled with the children, and the brick orphanage was soon empty.
Yoon Tae-seong used his magic power to hit the floor with a forward angle. Through the advance, his magical power vibrated and spread.
“I-“
“It’s over there.”
Evelyn Rafaeli discovered it earlier than Tae-Sung Yoon. I didn’t even use any special skills.
‘clairvoyance?’
It’s a skill called ‘Claire Eye’.
Although commonly known as clairvoyance, clairvoyance was actually a fragment of Claire Eye.
The most used purpose was to understand the weakness of the monster.
‘I’m Claire, so I can recognize him.’
Even if he transformed himself, he couldn’t fool Claire Eye.
Yoon Tae-seong took out the Desert Eagle from the subspace and held it in his hand. Unless you’re sniping, the Desert Eagle is more convenient because it uses magic anyway.
Evelyn looks down the basement. Then he found a space right down to the basement.
A staircase appeared as the bookshelf was pushed aside.
The stairs seemed to be newly built, but the basement space was very old. The fact that the construction period was different could be known without knowledge of architecture.
He must have built an orphanage on the secret passage under the cathedral, and secretly made a space going down to the basement.
Tae-seong Yoon used the mana radar, and Evelyn Rafaeli used her own skill.
Several unregistered Awoken were moving fast.
“I think there is an exit in that direction.”
Evelyn Rafaela said.
No matter how clairvoyant he was, he was so damn good. He probably used clairvoyance and other abilities in combination.
‘Death crow!’
The bronze hawk created by the gargoyle ring was absorbed by the steel monster.
It was absorbed by the spirit of death and used to create Specter.
But now, the steel monster made by alchemy was almost one with the spirit of death, and the ability to handle Yoon Tae-seong’s specter gradually developed.
You can transform the Death Side, or summon the Crow of Death, a variant of the Gargoyle.
Of course, this death crow was the spirit of death.
The iron monster quickly turned into a raven with the aura of death.
The crow’s vision is shared.
‘good!’
A small crow made of steel quickly flew forward and flew away.
They quickly tracked them down using three tools. There was a fork in the road, but Evelyn Rafaeli accurately determined the direction, and Yoon Tae-seong was able to know the distance with them through the mana radar.
They also knew roughly the direction they were moving.
“Elodie! Send a team to the port of Nice. They are moving towards the port through the underground passage!”
-Shit! We found an explosive in the cathedral. That’s a huge amount of TNT.
cathedral?
Terror in places that symbolize Catholicism and Islam. What will happen after that?
There are certainly radical groups in Catholicism.
It was clear that the two religions, who were originally against each other, would fight really violently. There will be many Awoken from both religions, so they will fight each other.
When violence evolves systematically, it becomes terrorism.
If the two religions attacked each other, the possibility of a war over the Mediterranean Sea was very high.
‘Certainly these bastards were crazy from the start.’
The passage led to the sewer.
Shortly thereafter, they exited the sewer. As expected by Tae-Sung Yoon, they came out near the port of Nice.
A gunshot was heard.
Tae-Sung Yoon called the little crow that was disturbing Jean-Marc Durée.
This crow’s onmon is steel and its wings are sharp as swords. Also, there is a death spirit, so it doesn’t move like a simple machine.
They share sights and follow orders very well.
After the terrorist attack on the Cathedral of Nice, Carlo Moretti attempted to return to South America after first smuggling from Nice Airport.
Because of the terrorist attacks in Jerusalem, some people have to be taken to South America. This is because it is difficult for Jean-Marc Duret and others to work as paladins in France.
No one will know his face, so Carlo Moretti didn’t take it too hard.
Even if you monitor the Nice Cathedral, it will disappear by an explosion anyway, but rather, focusing on it creates an escape hole. Because no one knows that there is such a secret passage in the basement of the Great Growth.
But how could the GIGN special forces just wait in the port?
“Shit! What else is that?”
Jean-Marc Duret’s item, Aegis, was really a shield made for defense.
He stopped the gunfire, and they took cover.
But a little black crow followed them and disturbed Jean-Marc Duret.
“Looks like someone is chasing you from behind.”
Guillaume Renoir called somewhere. They were the killers he raised.
He calls them the Knights of the Temple.
He raised orphans, and sent some of them to South America, to Carlo Moretti.
They train there and return.
Jean-Paul Ronet was one of those killers who awakened, and hunters such as Jean-Marc Duret were later awakened and recruited by Guillaume Renoir.
He had grand plans. But that plan was shattered when the Black Network collapsed. So he planned a terrorist attack to instigate the crusade to the extreme.
DGSE didn’t know how to get that information.
His knights were waiting on the ship to smuggle.
“I do not forgive those who disturb the temple.”
-All right!
“Jean-Marc! You guys deal with those who are after you. Never forgive those who disturb the temple. They are… the sin of mankind! It is also a sin to neglect that sin.”
I thought that things were going a little strange with Jean-Paul Rene, but Jean-Marc Dunet and others really believed in the temple.
To them, Guillaume Renoir’s words were a revelation from God and the word of the Lord. Because they grew up that way.
A little further away from the exit of the sewer, they took cover, and special forces and strange gnomes opened fire.
The three Awoken blocked the drain in front of this exit.
Standing in the middle was Jean-Marc Duret with a shield. In his right hand he wore a buckler and held a Cala de Volg.
There was something very tragic about it.
If you watch the movie Wanted, which was released a long time ago, the bullets are bent.
Tae-Sung Yoon was able to make it like that if he focused on kinesis. Kinesis, or telekinesis, was ultimately a force created by combining the concentration of the mind with magical power.
‘The shield is an item, so bullets don’t seem to work.’
As I’ve seen before, Jean-Marc Durée’s kite shield was large and thick enough to protect its entire body.
Even with a skill, it would be difficult to pierce that shield with a bullet. So, Tae-Sung Yoon immediately changed the target.
One created a sphere of fire, and the one on the left uses the power of lightning.
Evelyn Rafaeli-
It was a shock wave of telekinesis, a shock wave.
She also thought that the power of lightning was the most dangerous, so she aimed at the man on the left first, but an unknown force blocked the shockwave.
‘Magic Field?’
Yoon Tae-seong felt the flow of magic created by the shield. That shield creates a magical field like a shield.
By surprise, he targeted others.
It wasn’t the people blocking the way, it was the guys preparing to run away now.
Fired two bullets in a row.
His bullets weren’t aimed at those standing in the way. To the end of the passage, I flew quite a distance away from them, and the direction was very wrong.
The power of the shield did not block the bullet.
The bullet was bent greatly, and it flew towards the one that Tae-Sung Yoon concentrated on.
Two bullets with the power of telekinesis called Kinesis hit two people.
Carlo Moretti’s thighs and Guillaume Renoir’s shoulders.
Using even kinesis, the bullet’s power was very strong.
Even if Carlo Moretti were awakened, his thigh muscles would have ruptured.
It is no wonder that Guillaume Renoir’s shoulder was completely broken.
A strong magical energy flows through the whole body of Jean-Marc Duret.
‘Is it a reinforced series?’
It is very difficult to deal with the enhanced type of hunters who use shields and swords. Because it really shows superior ability in close combat.
Just looking at them, I could see their fighting strategy.
Throws a sphere of flame and blocks the view after attacking. After that, Jean-Marc Duret fights in close quarters, and the one who uses lightning is looking for a hole.
That shield is the problem.
Tae-Sung Yoon made a decision after thinking very quickly.
He took out the ax spear of the Hadun tribe from Aspace, held it with both hands, and threw it vigorously towards Jean-Marc Durer.
‘No matter how strong the magic field of the shield…’, it is not easy to overcome the weight of this axe.
The bewildered enemy threw a sphere of flame at the axe. The flames exploded, but the ax spear could not be stopped.
Tae-seong Yoon turned the steel monster into a Caladbolg. After that he quickly pursued the ax spear.
“I left.”
The moment Yoon Tae-sung spoke, the ax spear and the kite shield collided.
I could feel the Kite Shield’s magic field shaking.
Yoon Tae-sung aimed at the guy who was preparing for a lightning strike from the left. Lightning’s attack was very strong and fast, but it was useless if the person using it lacked the ability.
You have to think quickly, judge, and attack right away.
Yoon Tae-sung did not give him such time.
Faster than Haste, it was moving like an island war, and the sword pierced him.
Although he used lightning in a hurry, it was difficult to follow Yoon Tae-seong’s movements properly with the human body’s visual acuity.
The brain can recognize and make judgments only when the vision is properly grasped. But if you can’t see properly, your brain also moves slowly.
When he judged and used lightning, Yoon Tae-seong had already stabbed him.
