133. Chapter 133
As soon as they entered the gate, the two sand leopards collapsed from their seats.
Because of maintaining the maximum speed for 3 hours, not only physical strength was exhausted, but also symptoms of dehydration were occurring.
Some of the soldiers brought water bottles to feed him, and only then did his breath return to normal.
“thanks.”
“Greung… … .”
Gently stroking the leopard’s forehead, Seun stood up.
Because of the shaky posture, Mana and Naegong could hardly be recovered, but physical strength was somewhat restored.
Recovering mana doesn’t matter where you do it, so I was thinking of doing it on top of the castle wall. That side would be easier to understand the battlefield and participate in battle.
Yasha had already moved to the command room above the city wall to command the soldiers.
Due to the monster’s attack, everyone everywhere was moving busily.
“Mr. Sewoon!”
“Yuseo, how are things?”
“I can still hold on. Above all, Mr. Hancheol is holding up well.”
Kang Kang-cheol stands alone, leaving behind the tightly closed gates.
Numerous monsters tried to overcome him, but it was impossible.
Before he could even reach the fist of strong iron, he lost his life as his body was pierced by a grain of sand that exploded as if an explosion had occurred.
Agares’ power to deal with earthquakes was unmistakably strong in all directions.
-Dominate the battlefield of the player South Gate.
-The tarantula’s webs attack the battlefield.
– Increases the combat power of allies and slightly reduces the movement speed of enemies.
There was a reason why Yoo Seo-ah did not engage in close combat like Kang Han-cheol.
Her potential, domination, was not limited to domination over the monsters she had cut down, as shown last time.
It was also possible to increase the combat power of allies by leaving the battlefield as the dominant range as it is now.
Not only that, but the power of Baal, her constellation, matched very well with the power of control.
In such a large-scale battle, acting as a commander seemed to give the clan greater strength.
He settled down in a place with a clear view of the battlefield and began to recover mana.
Then, in my ears, I heard the familiar sound of music I had heard before.
It was such a soft and beautiful sound, but it didn’t seem so to the monster.
-Monsters heard ‘cries of confusion’.
– A significant number of monsters fall into ‘confusion’ due to their excellent playing skills.
– Monsters in confusion lose their sanity and start attacking allies.
The ‘instrument resembling a fairy’ that Sewoon got after defeating the contractor of the board during the tutorial. It was one of the instrument’s abilities.
When I turned my head, a woman was playing a musical instrument made of weaving reeds at the highest point of the wall.
The way the wind swayed around her looked quite mysterious.
In terms of simply musical talent, it was even better than when Seun played ‘The Score of the Rough Sea’.
-The constellation ‘Singing Unicorn’ gently swings its horn while appreciating the melody of confusion.
It was a most beautiful melody for allies, but it was a terrible song for monsters.
Monsters in confusion started attacking allies.
Although there weren’t many of them, the confusion among them increased as they continued to attack their allies.
Apparently, her constellation, ‘Singing Unicorn’. The confusion seemed to be further amplified as the power of Amdusias, the 67th ranked demon king, was dwelling in it.
-Player Lee Ha-neul uses ‘Poisoned Ward’.
Whoa!
Purple liquid exploded over the heads of the monsters like water balloons.
The liquid spread across the battlefield in a sandstorm, and hundreds of monsters were covered in the liquid in an instant.
The monsters were stronger than those they encountered on the lower floors, so this alone did not cost them their lives, but it was enough to worsen their condition and slow their movements.
As the attack continued, the corpses of monsters piled up in front of the castle wall.
At first, the corpses served as a great wall to block the advance of monsters, but as the height gradually increased, the words changed.
Monsters who tried to climb the walls using the corpses of their comrades as a stepping stone were created.
If, by any chance, they climb on top of the castle walls and destroy even the water-based weapons, the whole situation will be greatly reversed.
I had to stop them from climbing the walls somehow.
At that moment, Baekhyun, who was manipulating the undead from behind, approached Sewoon.
“I think this will be enough.”
– The constellation, ‘The Word That Tramples Death’ cannot stop being excited about the upcoming festival.
What are you trying to do, so that even Gamigin expresses his expectations?
No matter how good Baekhyun’s skills are, he couldn’t raise that many corpses at once.
A magic flashed through Seun’s mind as he remembered the necromancer’s magic.
‘no way… … .’
The dark circle created by Baekhyun through Sewoon was violently rotated.
Unlike when controlling the undead, the mana flowing from the circle spread widely across the battlefield.
The mana that settled in the corpses on the battlefield spread its hands to the corpses around it like a virus.
It seemed that all the piles of corpses piled up on the battlefield were in his grasp.
With this, Sewoon was able to be sure of his predictions.
In preparation for the upcoming shock, I stopped accumulating mana and spread a wide shield in front of my eyes.
Soon after, the moment when Baekhyun, unlike his usual serious expression, raises the corners of his mouth long and clenches his fists like a person in rapture.
“Corpse explosion.”
The piles of corpse piled up on the battlefield began to swell all at once.
Kwaaang!!!
A roar as if a bomb had fallen filled the battlefield.
The soldiers who were manipulating the weapons stopped all at once, covered their ears, and lowered their posture to withstand the wind pressure.
The weapon, which was installed in a hurry and lacked stability, could not handle the wind pressure and even shook.
The wind pressure felt on top of the castle wall is this much, but what about the monsters that were directly hit by the explosion?
‘crazy… … .’
Literally destroyed.
Around the place where the piles of corpses were piled up, the traces of the monsters were completely gone.
Over a thousand monsters lost their lives in a single attack. To the extent that no intact corpse was left behind.
Fortunately, the blast range was set well, so it couldn’t exert the power to the wall, but if it went wrong, the wall would have collapsed.
“Sure, a success! After all, rather than a normal corpse explosion, the power surged as it exploded through the gas created by instantly decomposing a corpse! If it’s this way… … .”
Baekhyun smiled at the gruesome sight in front of him and continued his explanation.
I’m sure it wasn’t like that when we first talked.
Now, the white gown he was wearing blended well with him, and he felt like he was looking at a mad scientist.
Once again, his nickname of Sea Hae (屍海) seemed to suit him better than at any other moment.
In any case, thanks to that, I was able to correct the precarious atmosphere of the battlefield in an instant.
Because the corpses were all shattered, they could no longer be used as footholds to climb the walls.
Not only did the monsters around the corpse perish, but the body fluids of the monsters adhered to the wall and made it slippery, making it even more difficult to climb the wall naked.
It was a truly perfect hit.
“… … If you’re going to make an attack like this, shouldn’t you at least say something?”
“Oh, sorry! I hadn’t thought of that! Are you okay?”
“Just had a suitable shield, so there are no wounds.”
“That’s good!”
Kang Han-cheol climbed up the wall with sticky bodily fluids all over his body.
Perhaps the shield he was talking about also refers to monsters.
I don’t know how I climbed up this slippery wall, but it seemed difficult to continue fighting in that state.
shruck!
“… … Thank you.”
When Sewoon stretched out his hand, water drops swirled around Kang Kang-cheol.
clean shower. It was a living magic used after destroying the anthill on the 9th floor.
Kang Kang-cheol’s body, which was sticky with his equipment and even his hair, became clean in an instant.
“Would you like to take a little break?”
“no. I still have enough stamina.”
-Player Kang Han-cheol uses ‘Open Battle · Jin’.
Kwaaang!!
Ganghancheol once again jumped down the wall.
It must have been because the monster’s bodily fluids made it difficult to move.
Even though he was guarding the gate alone, he still had enough stamina. It was to the point where I thought that not only strength but also pure stamina might have been the ideal.
Of course, the sum of all abilities would never surpass Seun.
‘It’s holding up better than I thought.’
To be honest, I didn’t expect Clan Diablo to be this strong.
He thought that a certain amount of hardship would be unavoidable, and he hoped that he could endure it until at least he could recover his mana to some extent.
But now, their military strength far exceeded Seun’s expectations. Far from fighting, he was overwhelmingly defeating monsters.
Even though Sewoon never helped.
Everyone climbed up to the 10th floor of the tower, and it seemed that Seun had grown beyond what he thought.
Looking around, the number of players who signed a contract with the new constellation had increased even more than before.
Of course, all of them were constellations known as the 72 Demon Kings.
It was a figure worthy of the name of the Diablo Clan, which means devil.
‘I can’t just rest alone like this.’
Having recovered enough mana, Sewoon stood up.
He slightly lowered his gaze to look at Durandal, but the heat was still lingering in the blade.
Even if it was Durandal, it would be impossible to use Mamon’s treasure continuously, so it was necessary to let the sword body rest until it cooled down.
If so, there is only one attack left.
There was no better method than magic to deal with such a large army.
– Opened the treasure house of greed.
[ Ice field ]
– The blue tower’s ice-type attack magic turns the designated area into a cold land and freezes all enemies above it.
Hard!
Cold frost formed at Seun’s fingertips.
The circle rotated fiercely, setting the range of the ice field.
The ice field could increase the attack range as much as it could infuse mana.
The situation is relaxed anyway, and it is enough to collect new mana. By investing more than twice the amount of mana originally needed, the range of magic was extremely increased.
As soon as the scope setting is done.
– The power of ‘Ice Field’ is enhanced according to the tricks of the Black Tower.
– Depending on the trick of the green tower, the speed at which ‘Ice Field’ freezes is increased.
– The stability of ‘Ice Field’ is enhanced according to the blue tower’s trick.
Damn it!
The desert ahead froze coldly.
The monsters passing over it felt the coldness they had never experienced before, and had to vividly feel the moment their bodies hardened.
The legs freeze first, then the torso, then the arms and neck.
Some of them forcibly moved their bodies to get out of the cold, but their frozen bodies shattered and they died faster than others.
And soon after, all the monsters within the range designated by Sewoon turned into white statues.
The statues glistening in the sun were literally nothing more than a work of art.
Not long after the battle started, more than half of the monsters had already fallen.
All that’s left is the other half of the monsters.
thump, thump.
The boss monster of the 10th floor’s trial, ‘The Approaching Sandstorm’.
and… … .
“Quaaagh!”
It was another boss monster created when Seun completed the hidden quest.
