＜ Episode 108 ＞
The moment the President forced me to make a choice.
It was a short time, but all sorts of thoughts crossed Rupert’s mind, and in the end, what he chose was power.
The head of a company would have gone in the direction of preventing M&A by disclosing the basic outline of the project and negotiating.
However, Rupert’s identity is unknown.
The highest value of a martial artist is to constantly develop oneself and acquire the power to transcend human beings.
Because of Rupert’s identity as an unmanned soldier, he could not give up the project.
The chaos that ensued immediately after that.
The moment the council turned neutral, the white knights to help Hindel Bionic disappeared.
The Black Knights did not join the attack either, but there were many who looked for opportunities, and it was a time when just supporting the Hindel bionic, which had already started to fall, was beyond their power.
The research institute that was working on the project delivered one piece of data, and Rupert was able to have hope.
The kidnapping of Lina, which was carried out with the idea of just grabbing a small string.
Data was observed that the ‘mother body’ could respond to Lina’s biometric data provided by Organmaker, and at that moment Rupert made a decision.
“…is it a race against time?”
Rupert murmured softly, looked around the messy office, and then turned around.
“Tell the finance director that you are allowed up to one. Hold on somehow.”
“Yes! boss!”
I left the temple that answered firmly and moved on.
“I will go down to the facility.”
On one side of the office, a space that looked like a wall opened like a lie, and Rupert got on the sturdy looking elevator and pressed the button.
Whoops.
The elevator began to descend at high speed, and madness flashed in Rupert’s stiff-faced eyes.
“Let’s wait and see.”
A voice echoed in the elevator where Lucas was standing alone.
***
“light.”
Hung.
Light came up with a simple word, and although it was the size of a fist, it was enough to drive away the darkness.
“Can you precede?”
“It is not difficult.”
Lucas waved his hand at John’s question, and the sphere of light in the air slowly moved forward.
As the light moved forward, the surroundings of the party were again immersed in darkness, but no one felt uncomfortable with this darkness.
Before I knew it, I could only see faint traces of the sphere of light that had flown far away.
“…This is the limit. It must be about a hundred meters.”
“That is enough. You are good at it.”
Lucas snorted at Lloyd’s words, but he didn’t look too bad.
In this cave, which shows strong resistance to abilities, it was remotely controlled by manifesting magic, so Lucas’ skills were proven, and Lloyd was not stingy with praise.
“If there is something in front of you, it will react.”
At John’s words, the party nodded.
Now that the search ability has decreased due to the resistance of the cave, although it is a simple measure, it seemed pretty good as a means to prepare for the enemy’s attack in advance.
“It’s a bad place.”
John asked at Igor’s growl.
“In what way?”
“…it doesn’t feel like a cave. It feels like going into the belly of a creature.”
“Certainly not strange.”
Lucas said, tapping the wall, and Lloyd nodded in agreement.
‘It’s definitely improved.’
John, who had been looking at Igor with strange eyes, looked away.
Lloyd wasn’t the only thing Igor got from the National Guard.
The National Guard is a place that has quite a bit of technology from the Great War.
Through additional negotiations, Igor obtained something that could be of help to him, and from a certain moment, Igor’s capabilities began to develop terribly, and now John cannot take it lightly.
There would be nothing I couldn’t do if I decided to kill, but it was clear that I would have to take quite a bit of damage if I went head-on.
‘…there’s no one easy enough. This is won.’
The speed of John’s development was phenomenal, but the strength of those around him was no less.
Lucas is a mighty wizard from the beginning.
Whether he gained or felt something in the dungeon, his capacity had increased, and Lloyd was at least a master at the peak.
On top of that, even Igor had risen to a level not inferior to him, so in fact these four were a rare level of power even in Luna.
I thought I was a little livable now, but the environment around John is still tight.
After barely getting out of the well, he could see the sea, so he felt stuffy, but John calmed down.
‘It’s still okay.’
The speed of John’s development is enough to frighten even players, so it can be said that it is fast enough even now.
The more urgent you are, the slower you go, and the more urgent the situation, the colder your head is.
John thinks he’s been doing well enough, and this one will work out somehow.
At least John believed so.
‘After this work, I really take a break.’
The time when I took a step with a promise that couldn’t be promised.
“There is something.”
With Lucas’s words, the now dimmed light in the distance disappeared.
Doo doo doo.
Something rumbled through the cave with wild momentum and charged at the party.
***
Aww!
The objects rushing in with the sound of cutting through the air were completely immersed in darkness and impossible to discern, but no one in the party was bothered by that.
“backwards.”
At John’s words, Lucas stepped back and hid behind John, and at that moment, panels the size of an adult’s torso appeared in front of John and erected a wall.
Damn!
The shock wave spread with a strong sound, and Lucas frowned at the mighty power, but John analyzed the previous attack with a calm gaze.
‘It’s not an object. It is a creature. Mutant!’
It was strong enough to lightly crush a human body, but it could not penetrate the panel, and the physical properties felt by touching the panel did not feel like an object.
“Hmm!”
Lloyd, who evaded the attack by taking a step aside, raised both hands and pulled the trigger.
Tatatatatatang!
Like tracer bullets, light-filled bullets poured forward, and for a moment, the light illuminated the enemy.
Bubbubbubbuck!
coheheheh!
Lloyd’s bullets, which seemed to have been shot indiscriminately, poured into the enemy’s body, and at that moment, the beast’s roar reverberated throughout the cave.
“Kuh! It’s terribly noisy.”
Lucas frowned.
The already loud voice collided and amplified in the closed space, and it was fortunate that I did not go deaf because I heard it with such force that it would shatter my eardrums at once.
“A strange wave was mixed. Are you interfering with your mind?”
The unknown power contained in the shouting was trying to penetrate the brain, and John, who blocked the erosion with this ability, murmured.
“… it’s FEAR. It is the ability of a high-ranking magician.”
“I don’t think it would be strange to say it’s a Witchbeast.”
An enemy reflected in the light from Lloyd’s bullet.
It supported the ground with its four strong legs, and its slender body was made up of strong looking muscles.
At first glance, it looked like a wolf, but no one in the group thought it was a wolf.
“It’s pretty big.”
clap.
John nodded at Lloyd’s words as he approached the group while changing magazines.
I saw it at first glance, but the height of the head alone was more than 4 meters, and the length of the body was more than twice that, so it was not strange at all to call it a witch beast.
And above all.
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
“I’ll have to be careful with that.”
Dozens of tentacles sprouted from the monster’s back, moving freely and shooting out in all directions.
It was clear that it was that tentacle that had just slapped John’s panel.
John’s hand scanned the air, and at that moment, dozens of sticks appeared.
Quick.
Thanks to John’s ability, the sticks with their backs bent spontaneously in the air began to emit light, and John’s hands seemed to shake, but soon they were thrown all over the cave and settled down.
The location was exquisite, so the light gathered from all directions brightly lit up the inside of the cave, and only then could the party see the overall appearance of the enemy with their own two eyes.
“…it’s not an ordinary creature. The shape is too nasty.”
John and Lloyd nodded at Lucas’ words.
The appearance was similar to that of a wolf, but the appearance was terrifying.
There was no consistency.
Creatures tend to be composed of left and right symmetry, but the monster in front of me had no such thing at all.
It has three eyes on the left side of its distorted face and two on the right.
The right forelimb had hair like an awl sticking out, but the left leg was covered with scales.
The whole body is a collection of imbalances.
It was something that made disgust and rejection well up just by looking at it.
“The seeds won’t even work with the 9MM.”
clap.
Lloyd, who muttered with a serious expression, took out his anti-material sniper rifle and took out his pistol.
The friendly smile on his lips disappeared and his eyes, which had the expression of a seasoned soldier, sank deeply.
Although Lloyd had experience in subjugating monsters, he had never seen a monster like that.
The appearance of being out of the ordinary creature gave him a deep sense of wariness, and he realized that this was really not an ordinary thing.
“You motherfucker. Were you making something like that?”
Lucas gnashed his teeth and lit a small spark.
The air suddenly heated up, and the monster’s gaze, stimulated by the heat, turned to Lucas.
“Kuk!”
An unimaginable hostility and murderous intent tried to shake Lucas’ heart, but he was a wizard.
“No way!”
He raised his mad eyes and met his five pupils squarely.
Wow!
The moment when the tentacles were about to fly towards Lucas.
coheheheh!
With a wild roar, Igor, who had turned into a werewolf, threw his body and shot like a bullet.
***
White fur emitting a soft light and ten nails shining with a strange light.
Like a meteor cutting through the night sky, Igor’s hands swung across the street and landed on the monster’s paws.
aaagh!
Ten lines drawn in the air.
The result of those ten lines was astonishing.
The monster’s body, which had not been damaged by Lloyd’s aura-loaded bullets, had been cut off as if its head had been cut off.
Kaaagh!
The tentacles of the monster, which screamed in agony in unexpected pain, wriggled, but rushed towards Igor all at once, and it seemed that Igor’s whole body would be full of holes at any moment.
A crisis of desperation, as if one could lose one’s life at any moment.
but.
“Kreureung!”
Igor, who had turned into a wolf, seemed to sneer at his face, but Igor, who immediately shrank, spread his arms wide and spun around.
Ten fingernails glistened with brilliance on both arms spread wide, and then a whirlwind of blades revealed itself to the world.
Write and write!
Kaaagh!
As if caught in a storm, all the tentacles gathered in one place were severed, and a thick murderous intent formed in the corners of the wolf’s mouth.
and that moment.
“Burn!”
Qurrr!
Lucas shouted and a ball of fire extended from his hand and stuck to the monster’s face.
