45 The Tower of Causality (9)
… … .
A heavy stillness flowing through the battlefield.
That silence was common to both the human and demonic camps.
The place where the gaze of all living beings in such silence was fixed was a path that was created in the middle of the army of demons that stretched beyond the canyon to the horizon.
As if a hero in a legend splits the sea, the path was created with just one descent.
on that road,
bum bum, bum bum.
Nadir Crosicle, no, Shion, who made the path, began to walk slowly.
“ By the way… … .”
Zion’s pace gradually accelerated with the lost voice emanating from someone.
With such steps, the new form of Shion, which had become blurred, soon turned into a single stream of wind.
Kia aah!
Only then did the surrounding demonic spirits come to their senses and vomit tears that seemed to go out of their minds just by hearing them, and rushed towards Zion, who was running along the road.
Demonic monsters, each with a force equal to that of an elite knight.
As soon as the monsters approached in such an instant, they were about to cover Shion’s whole body, fighting!
A step that felt completely different from before unfolded from Zion’s right foot.
Kwajizijik!
The enormous wave of light that started from such a single step, engulfing all directions, rips apart the body of the monsters so as not to leave even a shape.
A huge space created by it.
The moment Shion immediately pushes her body into that space,
“ Stop that f*cking hero’s comrade!”
Along with the shouts of demons filled with hatred and life, a new wave of monsters filled the rest of the space and rushed towards Zion.
But the waves did not reach Zion.
The knight’s sword splits apart all enemies.
Bubbly bubbly!
Thousands of blades pouring out from the swung Sion’s sword cut through the waves.
The sky is dyed red with blood that bursts out of it.
at that time.
The sky was once again dyed black.
It wasn’t because of the magic that the demons spewed out.
steel knight.
It was because the golem, whose whole body was made of black steel, stood in the way of Sion, boasting a larger size than Mount Tai.
Goo!
With a cry so loud that just the sound alone caused an earthquake, the mace that the steel knight had lifted down towards Zion.
The atmosphere around the falling mace burns like a meteorite.
It is at a level enough to destroy a small city without leaving a trace.
At the moment when such a knight’s mace is about to crush Shion’s whole body, the moment!
A small chirping sound rang out.
Compared to the sound of a club that descends, bending even the space, the sound is so weak that it almost doesn’t exist.
However, the sight created by that sound was never weak.
With the tip of Zion’s sword pointing towards the floor from the sky, blah!
Because the steel knight’s club, which had fallen, was split vertically.
That wasn’t enough, so I wondered if a thin solid line that started from the knight’s hand holding the club went up to the shoulder, and chock-a-boo!
Along that line, the entire right arm of the knight was split.
spoken?
As if he didn’t understand what had happened, the moment the knight looked at his arm that had fallen off and blew out a stupid voice.
The steel knight’s body split lengthwise from the top of his head to his groin with the resounding cutting sound.
aa
As if hundreds of bombs had exploded all at once, the knight’s body, split in two, crashed to the floor with a loud roar.
Without a single hesitation, Sion proceeded through the wreckage of such an armored knight.
“ Far away… … Attack from afar!!”
Under the command of the high-ranking demons who were silent for a moment at the unusual sight, tuquaa
This time, thousands of demonic curses begin to pour only towards Zion.
Even a dragon, the power of the curses was beyond imagination to the extent that it gnawed at the mind and ripped the body in an instant, but this time, they had no effect on Zion.
It wasn’t dodging or striking with a sword.
Nothing can break the spirit of a single knight.
The iron knight’s body never breaks.
The powers of ‘Nadir Crossicle’, which had arisen according to Shion’s will, covered the whole body in an instant.
Tadadadatang!
Curses poured over such power are bounced off with a sound like roasting beans.
was Nadir’s absolute defensive ability, called a ‘ moving fortress’.
next,
Whoops!
A new type of Zion that runs right in front of the demon magicians who took a step forward and shot out the curses.
hey hey!
With him, the powers of Heuk Seong-ha and Nadir converge at the same time with the tip of Zion’s sword pulled out, and they begin to emit a creepy light and sound.
“ No, stop… … !”
The demon magicians who saw it quickly spread out dozens of layers of shields.
It was already too late.
Tuquaa
Sion’s sword, which stretched out in a straight line as if a knight was charging, tore all the barriers in one breath and pierced through the bodies of the demon magicians behind them.
A shock wave that explodes from it and destroys all other monsters in the vicinity.
It was so fast that a roar bursting out much later than that, filling the battlefield.
Sion advancing without even paying attention to the demon magician corps that destroyed it in such an instant, and the demonic forces unable to stop Zion’s steps for even a single moment.
Was it because of the overwhelming sight?
Grrr!
For the first time, the emotion of fear was young in the eyes of the monsters who had only known about blood and slaughter.
Along with him, the monsters slowly took a step backwards without knowing it.
As a result, the narrowed road begins to open once again.
“ Ah… … .”
The knights and the soldiers, including the lieutenant, from the back were watching the scene in enchantment.
What the hell is going on?
An unbelievable and unusual sight was unfolding before my eyes.
The demonic army that was so terrifying would be withdrawn by just one person.
Soon after,
bum bum, bum bum.
Their footsteps, who were looking at them, slowly began to move along the path that Zion had made with unspoken will.
What Zion gave the instructions.
No one else had said anything.

Me etc.
Without saying a word, the broad back, which smashed all the waves of demons blocking their way, was whispering to them.
to follow your own.
some other power.
something different.
something different.
The current ‘Nadir Crosicle’ was different from usual except for the appearance, but it didn’t matter.
Because that figure he is showing now is the strongest knight they have ever drawn.
“ Creating a road with Nadir-sama!”
Finally, along with a loud cry from the mouth of the lieutenant knight, the army of humans with eyes stained with passion and thrill began to follow Zion in earnest.
‘ This is not a bad start.’
Feeling the presence of the knights and soldiers approaching this way, Shion grinned.
From the beginning, this ordeal was a battle that could never be won if it was sustained in the canyon.
Just as there is a path of life within the road of death, in order to lead the battle of the ‘Apocalypse Gorge’ to victory, it was Sion’s idea that it was necessary to strike into the enemy’s formation like this.
In the first place, Nadir Crosicle and the troops under his command were specialized for breakthrough rather than defense.
Of course, for that to happen, the existence of an unshakable centripetal point was essential, but now Sion himself, who can fully utilize Nadir Crossicle’s power and body, was able to fulfill that role.
‘ Anyway, with this power alone, it’s all I can do to last a little longer… … .’
That was enough.
Because that ‘lasting a little longer’ was the core of this battle.
According to history, shortly after Nadir Crosicle and all of his troops were wiped out here, reinforcements, including the 1st hero, arrived at the canyon.
If Nadir had endured until then, the worst defeat in World War I would have been turned into the greatest victory.
That was also what Zion was aiming for.
Although it is an ordeal, it will surely flow just like the original history, and if so, the reinforcements will arrive at the same time.
‘ If the hero and reinforcements arrive, we will start hunting the end dragon in earnest.’
Although the goal of this ordeal was to block the canyon, Sion had no intention of ending it with that alone from the beginning.
Because all trials in the Tower of Eternity are designed to give better rewards the better the participants have the ability to break through.
Perhaps this secret ordeal, ‘History of Destruction’, has a similar structure.
There might be additional rewards for doing more than blocking.
Of course, in order to hunt Apocalypsia, which has achieved immortality to a certain extent, halfway out of the cycle of reincarnation, you will need the appropriate force… … .
Tuquaah
That, too, was already sufficient.
‘ This body.’
Is it because the body of a person who is called the strongest knight in the world?
‘ Nadir Crosicle’, the current state of the Black Star that Zion himself can use was slightly higher than that of ‘Sion Agnes’.
‘ If you measure it numerically, it’s about 6 stars.’
In addition to that, it was a body that could be used once and finished, so there was no problem even if you overuse it to your heart’s content.
If even a hero joins here, there’s no need to even say it.
‘ To do that, you must first reach the end of the dragon.’
Suga Gaga!
Zion’s gaze, which ripped apart the high-ranking demons from the left and right at the same time with the attack they shot, turned to the black dragon who looked down on the battlefield at the end of the demonic wave.
The eyes met immediately as if the other side was also looking at him.
As if threatening the apocalyptic dragon, when a deeper darkness bursts out of Zion’s whole body and begins to encroach on the surroundings,
‘ That’s… … .’
Apocalypsia’s eyes were full of doubts.
It wasn’t because Nadir Crosicle’s force, which was advancing like a piece of paper, tore his army made up of only the elite, even in the Magic War, was much stronger than it had grasped.
‘ That power.’
The darkness that Nadir Crosicle is now using in combination with technology was somehow familiar.
It was clearly a power he had never seen before.
But I couldn’t figure out why it felt so familiar.
Alien and sinister, yet something that arouses deepest fear… … .
-!!!!!!
The eyes of the apocalyptic dragon, who had been thinking up to that point, expanded to the point that it could not grow any longer.
With him, all the doubts in the dragon’s eyes begin to turn into astonishment.
Why didn’t I notice it right away?
– Why… … .
That power was definitely the power that Apocalypsia herself had seen in the past.
No, it was the strength that I had been through.
The 1st Invasion of the Continent by the Magician, a history that has now been passed down through word of mouth to very few people and a history of shame.
Because that was the power the humans used to crush the invasion.
‘ Aeons Orrelion Khan Agnes.’
At that time, all of the four major princes except himself were destroyed by him, the demon king was fatally wounded to the point that he could not even move, and all beings belonging to the demon had to be pushed to the end of the world.
A being who gave the devil a set of frustrations and fears he could never escape from.
Because of this, he started the invasion again after confirming that he had completely disappeared again and again… … .
– Why is that power here… … !
I couldn’t understand why it was appearing in front of my eyes again now.
‘It must be stopped!’
Did reason even fly away?
Apocalypsia, whose eyes were full of fear, suddenly opened her mouth.
In such a mouth, the source elements that make up this world are sucked in in the form of light, forming a huge gray sphere.
Ded Ded Ded Dude!
The earth and space vibrating without being able to withstand the feast of the far-off from it.
The power of the apocalypse is added to that, and the world itself begins to scream.
If the ‘breath’ was released like this, the demon army would also suffer enormous damage, but it didn’t matter.
Even if Apocalypsia loses all her forces at this moment, if she uses that damn power to kill Nadir, that’s what she really thought.
– Be erased from the world.
Finally, with words like a declaration,
Breath of Destruction.
Apocalypse’s strongest power weapon, which blew up one quarter of the fairy forest in the past, was fired at Zion.
