Chapter 212 Rune Tower“How about going up to the roof of the building?”
It was a quiet residential area on the outskirts of the city. Of course, the buildings were all on the first or second floor.
Is it really advantageous to go up to the roof of a house like this instead of a building?
“Attract monsters with a bike and escape through the alley.”
Rather than going up to the roof, Takahashi chose a strategy to lure in the ghosts.
Will you be able to survive going up to the roof? Only the surrounding monsters flock more and more.
“Everyone follow me!”
Yuki moved with several hunters on bikes.
He ran towards the ghost and fired a gun, and the other hunters also used skills such as flames and telekinesis.
Numerous Specters seemed to react as if they had succeeded, but the Ghost did not pursue them, but dispersed in all directions.
It’s like siege.
A ghost with a skull-like face appeared from the group of Specters, whose shape was blurry, with an unusually clear shape and holding a huge scythe.
It was obviously a Ghost, but it looked like a skeleton wearing armor.
What was even more unusual was that he was riding a horse.
Of course, even that word was not a living, breathing creature. Because the horse’s fur looked like it was burning with flames.
– Cuckoo, you little human bastards!
Wraith was ridiculed at human behavior. Attacking, luring, and running away, it was an obvious tactic.
– Kill them all!
A group of specters, who were widely spread out, moved quickly, narrowing the range towards those fleeing.
“Shit! Throw away the damn bike!”
Takahashi exclaimed.
Because I can’t fight properly on a bike.
“Yuki! Attract those damn bastards!”
Those who wore bikes were trying to create confusion by firing their skills at the Specter crowd. However, they were not deceived by her lure, and rather the hunters on their bikes surrounded them.
“Shit! Too many numbers!”
The numbers are high and the movement is fast. He also moved very organically, as if he was good at combat.
Because it was the killer race that moved the Specter.
Skills that are effective are limited, and guns do not work.
After several engagements, Takahashi finally decided to retreat.
“Shit! I can’t go back!”
Even if they broke through the siege anyway, they would keep chasing and killing survivors, and it was better to retreat to the city center.
But do you see a way to survive by retreating? It wasn’t either.
The gun was fired at the rapidly approaching Specter, and the bullet passed through the Specter.
The magic of the bullet seemed to have given him a slight shock, but it was a minor blow.
A shockwave of powerful telekinesis struck the Specter, and it dispersed like smoke met with a storm.
The smoke was absorbed by the race that commanded them.
They fought the Specter and tried to break through the siege, but were pushed back in the fight and had no choice but to retreat.
“Shit! Kobolds in the back!”
Kobolds were dog-like monsters, but their bodies were similar to those of orangutans. It smells good and has very strong and sharp teeth.
In the end, they had to focus on retreating rather than breaking through the siege. In fact, there is no such thing as a main camp, so it would be right to think that they just ran away to survive.
“Damn… a zombie in front of you!”
One of the most ferocious among corpses.
He was originally a human, but the dead were resurrected by black magic. Because they are not completely undead, they have a lot of violence and gluttony, and they mainly target live people.
It wasn’t originally a monster, so there was no magic defense, but it attacks even if its limbs fall off.
“Aim for the head!”
Still, the only thing they could deal with was the zombies, so they moved there.
But there are too many zombies.
It seems that all the zombies roaming Fukuoka have flocked to this place.
“Let’s go over there!”
I entered a fairly large building on the 5th floor in front of me. It was originally used as a shopping mall, so although the entrance was large, it was easy to defend because it was one.
When the zombies entered, they opened fire indiscriminately.
Fortunately, after the zombies chasing them came in, there were no major attacks.
“Haha… damn it! nothing happens Yuki! How is the situation?”
Takahashi asked.
Hunters who scouted on bikes were still moving quickly from the outside and monitoring the situation.
– A monster is confronting you. Damn it, a horde of ghosts is moving towards it! The kobolds are also moving.
It’s good to fight monsters and kill each other. After all, the monsters were enemies to each other.
As the Specter group moved in that direction, the kobolds also moved naturally in groups.
The building became the center of the battlefield.
“Are these two the strongest?”
Yoon Tae-sung and Tetsuya also moved quickly towards the place where the specter group appeared.
Of course, the goblins and the shaman also accompanied them.
Because it was quite beneficial to scout the surroundings using the goblins.
The one that appears to be the head of Gobold, and the other one in the form of a ghost, I couldn’t figure out. But he did know that he wields black magic and spawns zombies.
‘Is he more dangerous than the race?’
Using dead corpses to create zombies, they were able to create 100,000 corpses in present-day Japan.
As we left the skyscrapers of the city center, a residential complex appeared on the outskirts. In the meantime, there was a fairly large shopping street, and the guild union entered the shopping mall building.
Tae-Sung Yoon immediately put on barge and used ‘Warp’.
They quickly moved to the rooftop of the shopping mall.
Since it was the tallest building in the vicinity, I could see all directions.
Specters, cobbles, and hordes of zombies formed a force as if they were besieging a building.
The number of zombies was huge.
It seems that everyone who died in Fukuoka turned into zombies.
“Now what?”
“I just have to do my job. I handle the race. You… just defend this way.”
Yoon Tae-sung immediately took off his armor. Then I looked at the race in the distance.
‘It’s definitely not a normal race.’
It’s the same with carrying a Specter, and moving the Specter like an army is the same.
Wraith’s face was in the form of a skull, and that she was wearing armor.
Looking at everything, it wasn’t an ordinary race.
In particular, the weapon and atmosphere he used were very similar to the spirit of death.
Although it was a short-distance space movement, the range of 8th grade magic power was a considerable distance.
Tae-Sung Yoon moved the space right in front of the race.
– Kkkkkul, Blink? Your magic skills are pretty good!
It suddenly appeared right in front of him, but he didn’t panic. Moreover, Tae-Sung Yoon immediately noticed how he moved through space.
“Are you weird? Is it really a race?”
– Whoa? Humans who can speak runes in this world, are you really a wizard?
When Yoon Tae-seong tried to talk in rune language, Reis was a little surprised.
Yoon Tae-sung could see that this guy was very intelligent, unlike other intelligent monsters.
-Cuckoo, it’s very offensive to compare me to a race or something. Of course, I haven’t fully regained my power yet… but I am the ‘God of Death’!
The guy who made a contract with Yoon Tae-seong also called himself the ‘God of Death’.
It is difficult to accurately translate the meaning of the word ‘god’ in the rune language. Even the word ‘god’ that humans think of has a different meaning as the times change.
“Is it the spirit of death?”
– Cuckoo, that’s what stupid wizards call it.
‘Hmmmm…? He’s a bit strange even to be called a spirit of death.’
-Kukkkul, I am not a dusty life born out of the order created by the Creator. You humans are nothing but dregs of the Creator’s order. I can be said to be a janitor who removes that kind of dust.
Indeed it is There are not many living beings created by the Creator themselves as prototypes.
Based on that, he created the order of the world, and as it evolved naturally, various life forms were born.
But to say that it is garbage is the mindset of those with a divine nature.
“So you’re saying you weren’t born of the Creator’s order?”
-Kukkle, I was created by the great demon Knox himself!
“Knox? Are you talking about Dark Knox?”
No, more important than that, the existence of the Godhead, a creature, created these guys in front of you?
‘Isn’t that possible? Creation is the power of the Creator.’
-Kukkle, did you learn magic from the dragon yourself, seeing that you know the great name?
What does dragons have to do with magic?
‘Did the dragon make this magic?’
After all, the only beings who knew the runes were the gods and dragons, so there was no one in Middle-earth who could create magic using runes except for dragons.
– Shall we compare whether the god created by the great demon Knox is strong or the wizard created by the dragon is strong?
He wanted to get more information, but he was ready to fight in earnest.
In preparation for the fight, Yoon Tae-seong also summoned the spirit of death and created the Death Side. Then he was furious with a look of embarrassment.
-Did you dare make a weapon with the god of death…? Damn alchemists! I will make even your soul a slave to the darkness!
“Does that slave of darkness mean that specter?”
It seemed that way.
That’s his ability. When you kill something, you turn it into a ghost, and you rule it.
Just as the Death Side used by Yoon Tae-sung becomes stronger as it absorbs the power of the being of death.
‘He’s really dangerous.’
The reason why he has so many specters is probably because he killed a lot of people while coming here.
Because monsters don’t have souls.
-Kikkeul, anyway, wizards like to name things. A slave is just a slave.
He said, ‘Kill it!’ As soon as I gave the order, the specters around me started to attack Yoon Tae-seong.
But now, Yoon Tae-seong is too strong for Specter to attack.
Specter, who was attacking Yoon Tae-seong from all sides, once swung the Death Side once, it was burned with deep blue flames and disappeared.
The race was a little flustered.
Specter is his slave. If Specter died, he had to return his powers.
-Damn…!
Since it was a weapon made by processing the spirit of death through alchemy, it must have possessed the power of the original spirit. With that effect, I learned that that weapon absorbs dark energy.
Even if he attacked with the Specter, he was rather helping him.
Specters were pretty useful soldiers, but you can recreate them.
-Come back, my soldiers!
He issued a new order. Rather than attacking Taeseong Yoon, Specter began to be absorbed by the race.
It absorbs the power of Specter like a black hole that sucks in black smoke.
Then… Goo Woong!
Intense waves created by vibrations of enormous magical power! At the center of it was a stronger race.
-Kukkle, I’ll deal with you directly!
The guy was full of confidence in his own strength.
He fought and won numerous human beings, many awakenings, and numerous monsters. Building up that power step by step, he became a truly ‘god-like’ strongman.
Powerful dark magic overflows and flows.
‘Shit! I still can’t absorb it properly.’
But it was strong enough to kill him. Rather, because the dark magic that was not properly absorbed overflows and flows, it can explode with a stronger force.
-die!
Goo・・・・・・ Light!
The space was pushed back by the tremendous power of the magical power it emitted, and the impact caused a roar.
Quarrerrrrrr…!
The ground was turned over by the power of the exploding magical power. He could be proud of his own strength, but Reis looked to his right and left.
Goo good!
His death side was blocked by Yoon Tae-seong’s death side spear.
There was a roar as the magic and magic collided, but surprisingly, it was not as powerful as the first. Mostly because Yoon Tae-seong blocked the shock.
“You’re just exploding your power stupidly. You don’t seem to have learned how to use magic properly?”
Yoon Tae-sung sarcastically provoked him.
