“Wait, the reason you sent that nobleman to the Dragon Palace is to steal the lunar eclipse?”
Arachne asked why Jack hadn’t been seen for a while, and was shocked.
At first, he didn’t know what a lunar eclipse was, but when Cain’s men explained it to him, his jaw dropped.
“No, do you guys plan to turn the dragon palace into an enemy in a situation where there are many enemies?”
Cain reacted indifferently to Arachne’s reaction.
“What are you worried about?”
“What are you worried about! If you guys go bankrupt, I’m done too!”
Arachne didn’t want to, but as a result, she escaped from the organization and became attached to Cain.
Both the organization and the imperial family would not let go if they caught her.
In the midst of this, if Cain disappears, there is no answer.
I didn’t know what would happen if either of them were caught.
I didn’t know it well, but it was certain that it would be much better to kill myself.
“Don’t worry. Because I sent Jack a stick to replace the lunar eclipse.”
“Cool stone rod?”
“I brought some with me when I stopped by Nightray before.”
At the time of the first round of Top Sword, Guanghuijie appeared at the opening ceremony and showed that he was in Stellarium.
As soon as this was confirmed, Cain rendezvoused with Regina at Nightray.
There was a bar that crossed the border to escape tracking with the power of space-time insulation.
“If it is a bong of cool stone, can it replace that lunar eclipse?”
“Of course it can’t be replaced.”
“yes?”
“If that was possible, Emperor Gwanghui would have given off some of the Siwonseok and received the lunar eclipse. At most, the Siwonseok Bong will be enough to make the dragon palace sink slowly.”
Among the knights who followed Cain, Jack was a knight who was proficient in jinbeop.
The siwonseok bar engraved with Jack’s strategy did not completely replace the lunar eclipse, but only to withstand the load for a short time.
Considering that Si Won-seok is a material that is impossible to even cut without a heart sword, the Yonggung’s method was astonishing.
“While Si Won-seok Bong is holding Yonggung, finish the work and return the lunar eclipse. Then you can.”
“… … But that lunar eclipse was stolen from the beasts without their consent, right?”
Arachne looked at Cain with a puzzled expression.
Even among the knights who suffered the horrors of the Great War, Cain is known as an extremist.
That means, from the point of view of ordinary people, Cain is also a completely spoiled human being.
‘I thought I was insane just pointing my sword at the emperor of the empire… … .’
You stole the pillars of someone else’s house and would return it before it collapsed.
It was an idea that came out firmly even if I went out of my mind.
“What are you planning to do with the lunar eclipse you got from doing that?”
It was a question I asked thinking there was nothing to be surprised about anymore, but Arachne froze at the words that followed.
“Assassination of Emperor Bright.”
A statement that he would assassinate the strongest knight in history who ate the elixir of the end.
It was a story that I would have laughed at if someone else had told it, but when the owner of the eight-hearted sword said it, the weight was different.
“So it won’t take long. Success or failure, the lunar eclipse will be returned to the Dragon Palace.”
If you go that far, the voice that the lunar eclipse is not important will fill up to the end of your chin, but Arachne can’t say anything.
‘Isn’t it actually a big deal that I got caught by this human?’
Of course, the big thing is right.
* * *
Koo-goo-goo-goo!
The runaway of the Yongwanggung earthquake led to an earthquake in the entire Yonggung Palace.
“disturbance!”
“I’m doing it even if I don’t say anything.”
Regina hurriedly looked for a commotion, but she was already concentrating on stabilizing the position.
However, being physically attacked near the place where the lunar eclipse was kept, which is the center of the camp, was not a problem that could be fixed by doing something outside.
“Did Jack have an accident after all? I’ll go in and get him.”
“Stop.”
The disturbance stopped Regina from entering the Dragon King’s Palace.
“Due to the runaway of the axial earthquake, the space inside is now being mixed. If you don’t know the truth, you’ll be lost forever.”
If it was space-time insulation, the entire dragon palace could be blown up, but if that happened, the entire dragon palace would collapse without the axis of lunar eclipse.
“Besides, there is still Tiu left in there, so you can just destroy it… … .”
At those words, Noah didn’t even look back and ran into the Dragon King’s Palace.
“Noah!”
“Master!”
Hanbyeol, who saw Noah jump to the limb, followed him.
“Where are you going instead of fighting me!”
Even Naru jumped into the Dragon King’s palace.
Seeing this, Regina hardened her expression and looked at the commotion.
“You just need someone to guide you, right? Someone give me a guide.”
However, Soyo just shook his head without saying anything.
“This is enough.”
“What the hell is going on… … .”
Following Soyo’s gaze, Regina turned her head and met Shinsan’s eyes.
He was nodding at Regina.
* * *
Entering the Dragon King’s Palace, Noah realized that the road was changing every moment.
Not only the runaway flow of aura, but also the movements of Noah who entered the room change the true method.
‘If you don’t follow the correct path, you’ll be trapped in the camp.’
In Noah’s eyes, which were so focused that his head hurt, he could see the path leading to the next life.
However, even though Saint-Lo had been right in front of his eyes, at some point he would appear dozens of kilometers away, and his location was constantly changing.
You have to run towards Saint Lo that appears in the distance, but the location often changes before you reach it.
The runaway earthquake could not be broken through with only eyes looking at the method.
‘Waiting for Jin Beop’s saenglo to appear nearby is taking too long.’
From noble mtl dot com.
Noah used overdrive instead of waiting for the path to open up to a location where he could go.
“Stage 6 opening.”
With only two stages, the overdrive that overpowered the alter ego of the aggregate was raised to the sixth stage at once.
Even tested with Cain, 4th level is the maximum.
It was Noah who was suffering from aftereffects even in stage 4, but the aftereffects were not important.
Level 7 or higher is still uncontrollable, so this is actually the maximum output that the current Noah can produce.
“Hoo-wook.”
The moment I leaped with breathing, the scenery around me was pushed back.
Reaching Saint-Lo with two leaps, Noah passed into the next room and continued running without slowing down.
Even while running at a speed that exceeds tens of meters in an instant, the eyes continue to search for the next path.
It was dangerous to fly into a strange space even if it was twisted once, but I was used to finding Saint-Ro in the midst of chaos.
‘It was more difficult when I bet with King Woojang!’
After crossing several spaces in that way, the figure of a strange man caught my eye.
A human being, not a prisoner.
With that alone, Noah could tell that he was deeply involved in this matter.
“Uh, you… … .”
The man was alone.
However, Tiu’s aura remained on him like a reverberation.
Quaang!
The man who saw Noah’s leap quickly took up his posture and drew his sword.
Transformation of the properties of the steel wrapped around the sword.
It was an attribute that boasted a strong defense that was difficult to penetrate even with fire attribute conversion, but it was not a problem for Noah now.
He reached out his hand wrapped in self-defense and grabbed the opponent’s sword.
Blood flowed from his palms, but Noah gave strength regardless.
and,
Kwajijik!
The sword that was wrapped in the attribute transformation broke off.
After breaking the opponent’s wrist, Noah grabbed the man by the collar.
“Where is Tiu?”
“You, your eyes… … !”
“There must have been a girl left in the Dragon King Palace.”
“… … The child fell as the earthquake raged. At least until the last time I saw you, I was fine, so don’t worry.”
Jack read that the other person was excited and calmly answered the question.
‘Are you the son of the captain you’ve only heard about? what power… … .’
A human being who is not a beast man splits a steel sword with his bare hands.
‘They said he inherited all of his parents’ talents, so he’s really a monster. I thought that this was only possible for Fabrice’s head.’
Physical ability is also physical ability, but those light purple eyes meant that he was about to awaken the demonic eye.
‘It can be said that he came all the way here by himself, almost on the verge of opening his eyes.’
Perhaps in the near future, the record of the youngest Master Knight may be renewed again.
With that thought in mind, Jack returned to focus on the task in front of him.
“It will not be easy to find people inside the ever-changing Dragon Palace. You both seem to want this situation to calm down, so why not go to the lunar eclipse with me?”
“What do I believe in you?”
“I have this.”
Jack took out the original stone rod he had hidden.
It seemed that he was hiding such a long stick well, but Noah’s gaze was fixed on the dense pattern on the surface of the stick.
“If you’re a student of the Night Ray, can you figure out what this is made of? By using this, you can temporarily increase the dragon’s palace’s axis to two and stop shaking. Of course you can use… … .”
“There will be only you. I made it impossible to operate without a specific aura.”
“Are you going to find out there? Combining the arts and martial arts is itself.”
It seemed that it would be possible to remodel that jinbeop so that he could use it himself.
‘But no.’
The place where the truth is engraved is the surface of Siwonseok.
Although it was possible to create a modified jinbeop, there was no way to engrave it on the surface.
“I am Cain-sama’s subordinate. I will not do anything that will harm you.”
It was a bit unreliable, but it didn’t seem like a lie.
In fact, the marks carved on the surface of the rod were similar to those seen underground in the Crescent Islands.
Noah could feel the traces of a triumphant battle on the surface.
“How to get to the lunar eclipse?”
“We already know the location of the lunar eclipse. However, there is a strong veil spread there, and I cannot enter with my own strength.”
However, if Noah’s strength is felt now, he will be able to make enough gaps to insert the rod.
“good. Guide me.”
* * *
When Noah decides to go to the room with the lunar eclipse with Jack instead of looking for Tiu.
Actually, Tiu was blown into the room where the lunar eclipse was enshrined.
Ugh! Ugh!
“Ugh… … !”
Tiu, who bumped his head while moving when the earthquake tangled up, lost his mind for a moment, but now woke up.
Waking up, Tiu reflexively grabbed the handle of the sword at the trance aura around him.
There was a risk of running out of control if he encountered an aura of this size while he was still not in perfect control.
However, Tiu, who grabbed the handle of the sword to concentrate, soon realized that it was not his hand that was trembling.
Ugh!
“The sword is crying… … ?”
Tiu had seen a similar phenomenon before.
“I’ve seen completed Holy Enlightenment Swords or those about to be completed cry, but why are you… … ?”
Tiu’s Holy Spirit Sword was bestowed by Emperor Guanghui for his performance in the Crescent Islands.
Of course, it was still a long way from completion.
“no way?”
However, the completion of Noah’s dark moon was also accelerated due to a powerful aura.
Tiu looked around.
In the lunar eclipse located in the center, a huge trance aura was swirling.
It was a space that was completely blocked on all sides, completely blocked physically and even by churn.
It would be right to wait for Soyo’s rescue, but… … .
“I can’t last a few minutes in my current state. My aura must be swept away and run amok first.”
Tiu stood up, drew his sword, and approached the lunar eclipse.
He calmed down his aura as much as possible and took a slow step.
Ugh! Whoa!
The sword that touched the light of the lunar eclipse vibrated like crazy.
The surface of the sword began to peel off like skin.
The surface exposed beneath it shone black like obsidian.
Also, the constellations of the sky were engraved on its surface.
It resembles a signature sword that is said to be made during the years of the year, the month, the day, and the hour.
A sword containing the energy of a tiger resembling her, inheriting Sangun’s blood, was completed.
Tiu looked blankly at the figure and muttered a name that suddenly came to mind.
“Hosh*tamtam (虎視眈眈).”
When Tiu called the name, a wind began to blow in the room.
