“You said you would speak directly.”
At that moment, the atmosphere in Anger changed. It’s a method I’ve seen before. A middle-aged man with a warm impression quickly became a middle-aged man full of tiredness and annoyance. It seems that he borrowed Angour’s body and descended directly.
“Long time no see. Mr. Junon”
I’m a bit used to this now. Junon started talking about the main topic without saying hello. Well, I didn’t expect to be greeted by Junon.
[Drakan and I did our best, but this is the limit.]
I expected that since Drakan didn’t meet me.
“Are you buying me time?”
[Yes. I will delay the time when Utuka’s main body descends as much as possible.]
“Are you sure you want something?”
Every action of God has a reason. Utuka’s henchmen wouldn’t have jumped out of the weak individual simply to make it easier to block.
[It is the growth of this world.]
It is a story in the same context as the story I heard from Drakan last time. It seems to be a story about becoming stronger while fighting.
“How much time do we have?”
[I can not know. There are too many variables. However, for about five years, Utuka would not appear in person. Bastet helped.]
I understand. God cannot know everything. But Bastet didn’t show up for a while. Was it because of this? I don’t know why, but he’s the only god who quietly helps without a price. It’s been a while since I’ve had to treat tuna.
[Wandering recorder, believe in this world]
I don’t think that’s what the god of lies would say
At some point, the atmosphere of Anger had returned to its original state. I have no choice but to block it once. In five years, only henchmen will come out. However, it means that Utuka’s main body will not descend, and stronger henchmen will come out.
The level of Utuka’s henchmen is still unknown. It could be all of the things that are now being pushed out, or there may be stronger individuals than that. Of course, I think the latter is much more likely.
“Did you talk well, brother?”
“Yes, he said something nice.”
“Then what can I do from now on?”
“Please take charge of the East Continent. That side is very vulnerable right now.”
Anger followed my will and gathered all the strength of the Divinity Church and left for the East Continent. With this, I gathered the power to stop the enemy forces right now. Of course, this is just a stopgap.
In particular, even though the East Continent has developed a lot thanks to the Great Labyrinth, the average power of most countries still does not reach that of the West Continent. All countries on the eastern continent will have to join forces.
Argin and Shark’s performance was dazzling. Recognizing the seriousness of the situation, the Propene Empire dispatched the Central Army and began concentrating all forces near the border around the dimensional hole.
And until the army arrived, the two of them held off almost every enemy.
I often stopped by to replenish and heal. No matter how transcendent they are, they are tired and hurt as long as they have not yet escaped the human body.
“The main force of the Propene Empire has almost arrived. You can leave now”
For now, I was thinking about how it would be for both of them to step down from here.
“I still want to be here. I think I got a clue about something.”
Light seemed to emanate from Argin’s eyes as he answered. Cutting tens of thousands of enemies every day, Argin gave off the impression that he had become a single sword. Will there be another realization coming? It seems to be an important time. Then there is no reason to dry it.
“I will be by Master’s side.”
Shaq didn’t have the same vibe as Argin, but it was the opposite. Rather, Shaq’s presence was gradually disappearing. It felt like the air that was supposed to be there.
It was the same warrior and learned the same thing, but it seemed like he was gaining enlightenment in a different way.
Apparently, the two of them were warriors at the root, so it seemed that they gained enlightenment while defeating enemies.
5 years. If it’s long, it’s long, if it’s short, it’s an infinitely short time. In the meantime, anything should be done if the two of them can grow, especially Shaq.
I don’t know how it will be with Howard and Setas, but it will be Mistiltein’s owner, Shaq, who will give them the last blow. At least that’s what I think.
However, a problem arose with the arrival of the main force of the Propene Empire. Duke Itebal, who was in charge of the main force of the Propene Empire, wanted Argin and Shark to escape.
“Bio, on behalf of the Propene Empire, thank you for your great help in maintaining the front line. However, since this is definitely the territory of the Propene Empire, we will take charge of it from now on.”
Duke Itebal was still a young nobleman in his 40s. He was a skilled knight who had reached the level of a master, and he was a man with excellent skills who inherited the ducal family at a young age and revitalized the family.
However, the problem was that he was overflowing with confidence to the point of being arrogant because he had innate skills and had been on a winning streak in his life without major bends.
“Are you okay? Enemies are stronger than you think.”
Argin, who had been fighting the enemy so far, said it out of sincere concern, but Duke Itebal didn’t accept it that way.
“No matter how famous a knight you are, that statement disregards the power of our Propene Empire.”
When it came out like that, Argin had nothing more to say.
“Okay. I will withdraw from the front line. But I won’t be far away, so call me if you need any help.”
“That will not happen.”
Duke Itebal, in a resolute tone, ignored Argin’s favor and prepared the army. To show such confidence, the strength prepared by the Propene Empire this time was not negligible.
Including Duke Itebal, there were only 5 master-class knights, and 3 archmages were also with them. Almost all of the power of the Propene Empire was sent.
In addition, 50,000 soldiers, including wizards and knights, were all elite. Duke Itebal’s confidence included these things.
The Propene Empire, under the command of Duke Itebal, built a watertight defense and defended against Utuka’s henchmen. To be honest, this was even better than I expected.
Duke Itebal’s nose rose without knowing how high it was. But this wasn’t a short-lived game.
After a few days, cracks began to form in the defenses. Even transcendentalists like Argin and Shark can’t fight forever.
However, no matter how elite it is, it is natural to get tired of fighting against tens of thousands of enemies that come day and night.
He was being treated in the rear, but he couldn’t ignore the void created by the injured soldier. Wizards and priests who heal wounded soldiers are equally tired.
“Are the Sword God and the Undefeated Knight human? How much did the two of you block this?”
Watching the enemies rushing in like a tidal wave, Duke Itebal burst into lamentation. But he still hasn’t let go of his pride. I couldn’t help but ask for help from Argin and Shark, who were waiting far behind.
After a few more days, Propen’s forces began to stretch to their limit. The defenses were helplessly pushed back, and among the knights and wizards, the death toll was one after another.
The pride of Duke Itebal, who had gone to the forefront and wielded his sword like crazy, was finally broken.
“retreat! Retreat and regroup!”
In order to minimize the damage, the army was defeated first, and Itebal came to Argin with a drooping shoulder.
“I was arrogant. I sincerely apologize. I won’t ask you to forgive me. But would you please help the Propene Empire?”
As soon as Duke Itebal reached Argin, he knelt down and bowed his head. It was an unconventional act that was unimaginable for him, who is famous for his high ego. But he wasn’t stupid, despite his high ego.
“Thanks to you, I had a good rest for a few days.”
Argin and Shaq, who were warming up at the campfire, stood up with their swords.
As soon as the two joined, the situation was reversed at once. The front line, which had been pushed back until now, began to advance little by little.
Unlike before, Duke Itebal completely abandoned his pride and consulted with Argin and Shark to plan and execute the plan.
On the other hand, in the East Continent, which suffered great damage in the beginning, the power of the Divinity Church led by Angour and the mercenaries and adventurers living in the Great Labyrinth city urgently extinguished the fire, and after that, the allied forces of each country began to arrive, making a dramatic turn.
Heroes are born in troubled times. A hero was born here. Impellas, the current emperor of the Hughes Empire, where Emperor Eugene was born, grasped the situation based on his quick intelligence and immediately persuaded all the countries of the East Continent to form an allied army. The power gathered by the countries of the eastern continent began to be concentrated in the hole in the dimension.
In the meantime, I supported Argin, Shark, and Angour, while assisting Setas’ research, and bringing out Antariel, who was concentrating on raising children, and returning her to the lab.
The corpses of Utuka’s henchmen were brought to Antariel and analyzed. If even a weakness is discovered, the battle situation will be completely different.
But other results came before the good news.
“Basically all of these guys’ bodies are poisonous, especially the ingredients contained in their blood are close to deadly poison. It is a poison that is almost impossible to decipher.”
It was the result of Antariel’s research. It was a bit of an expected result. Somehow, all the plants were drying up near the place where their corpses were piled up. Is this why they are hostile to the World Tree?
“Nothing will grow on the ground exposed to their blood for at least a few decades.”
The reason for maintaining the front line became clearer. If these guys spread across the continent and start dying everywhere, the land will die first and all living things will gradually disappear.
“Are there any physical weaknesses? It’s okay to be weak against diseases.”
“This is a very strange creature. It seems to have gathered only the strengths of various creatures. You could say it’s similar to me.”
Utuka’s henchmen now protruding from the hole looked like chimeras that warlocks sometimes create, a mixture of various animals and beasts.
“That’s why there are weaknesses and there are no weaknesses.”
“For now, it is assumed that it will be strong against diseases. In particular, it should be fairly resistant to common infectious diseases. Basically, they are strong against heat.”
In fact, I have already tried it. If you stop the heart with the authority of a disease on a single object, it will die of course, but it did not have a great effect on the plague system. Because they are so rushed out, they run to the front and die before the disease spreads. In fact, this is a bigger reason.
“Then is it weaker against ice-type magic?”
“Not really. The body freezes in the first place, but where is the strong creature? However, I’m not sure if I can call this a weakness, but there are similarities.”
“You should have said that from the start”
“You said you weren’t sure if you could call it a weakness. These are weak to poison.”
“They are full of poison, but are you saying they are weak against poison?”
“Doesn’t it mean that poison doesn’t work because it’s a poisonous snake?”
But this is something to think about. Poison is not something that can be used recklessly just because the opponent is weak. And it’s hard to get in bulk.
“These guys come in many different shapes, but they have a few things in common, so it would be nice to use them.”
“Where is it?”
“Heart and lungs. Poison that acts on the heart will be difficult to use, so it would be better to target the lungs.”
As I listened to Antariel’s words, I thought that it might not be necessary to be in Germany.
From noble mtl dot com.
“I’ll have to do some experiments.”
“So am I done now? If nothing else happens, I want to go back to my children.”
“No, we are still far away.”
I’ve been putting up with what I want to play with Lena for several days now, but I can’t let Antariel go.
I started moving to get something that could finish them off once and for all.
