The road to Yeouido was no different from anywhere else, but all the roads to a specific area were blocked.
A huge wall was erected, and soldiers with guns were guarded, and even hunters and heroes with swords or spears on their sides were seen.
They were government-affiliated hunters.
While walking around the wall and heading to the place Myeong-Jun Lee told me, Hyun-Woo Choi said while fiddling with the scabbard.
“The atmosphere is bloody.”
“Because there are few erosion-type dungeons and gates. Also, since you never know when it will happen, it is normal to spread a barrier around the erosion area and guard against it. It will probably be like this for several years. Only the people who worked there or owned the building are pitiful.”
Yeeun Lee, who was sitting in the passenger seat, answered that way, and pressed on a mask and hat for the hunter that she pulled out from somewhere.
“Excuse me.”
“okay.”
And Shin Woo-seok, who was holding the steering wheel, naturally reached out to Lee Ye-eun and made a hand sign in the air, and carefully touched it with the tip of her hair.
Then, her green hair, the symbol of her, began to turn black in an instant.
“Isn’t this hair too bouncy? There is no need to let me know that you or I are here for nothing.”
“that… It is.”
Ye-eun Lee said while smiling at me.
The appearance of her wearing a hat and mask, plus black hair, was somehow unfamiliar to me, so I was a little late in replying.
“Ugh.”
Then, Ye-eun Lee looked at me for a moment with an unfamiliar sound, then smiled once more and turned her head to look ahead.
While thinking about what it meant, Shin Woo-seok mumbled and opened his mouth.
“I will excuse the others.”
While we each changed our hair color and put on a hunter mask by Shin Woo-seok, we arrived in front of the small doorway Myeong-jun Lee said.
“What did you come here for?”
“It must have already been told.”
Shin Woo-seok, who suddenly changed his appearance and voice, answered bluntly.
The soldier, who looked inside through the slightly lowered window, nodded.
“Confirmed.”
“Yeah, that’s a lot of work too.”
Shin Woo-seok raised his hand to the soldier who stepped aside and saluted.
And then I drove through the wide open doorway.
“I was a little nervous, but fortunately it worked out well. Normally, I would never conduct inspections like this.”
At Shin Woo-seok’s words, who returned to his original voice, I nodded slightly.
Fortunately, Lydiana Lee Myung-jun seemed to move quickly as I requested.
“So, do you remember where that building is?”
“I remember.”
“Then is that your destination?”
Jin Ye-seul answered and Lee Yu-na asked.
I shook my head slightly in response to her words.
“No, it is right to go there, but that is not the destination.”
“yes? why?”
“The energy and morale left behind by the Necromancer doesn’t stay there, but flows like a stream. But first, the starting point is there, so it would be right to find it there.”
I remembered it clearly because I played as a necromancer.
Fraud, which can be said to be a by-product of the original Necromancer, is not detected in the usual way, and it flows like a waterway and curses the area.
So, among the ways to play, there was a way to lure the opponent to a place where morale was left on purpose or a place where the energy of death was standing, or there was a way to maximize power by pre-fighting.
… Of course, if you do this, your karma will increase or publicly declared, so you can’t use it arbitrarily.
In any case, the only way to relieve the energy left by these necromancers was to purify them by a priest who could be said to be standing on the other side of the necromancers, or to wait for them to be purified over time.
‘… but.’
Han Soo-young from another world.
There was no way that any priest would be able to disguise the morale she left behind.
No, even paladin Laura Hartmann would not have been able to do it.
That’s why he must have chosen a way to pass the time in such a tight lockdown.
In fact, on the way, there were objects that seemed to have been installed by the priests here and there.
It must have been an action to speed up the purification time.
Even the same Necromancer was not able to use her energy blindly.
If you go beyond the limits you can accept and handle, even the same Necromancer will rot, or your mana will flow back on the spot and you will die.
I also thought that no one could handle the energy she left behind.
Because no one among the Seven Evils used Necromancy or Necromancy to resurrect the dead.
Fortunately, Milited only used a similar technique, but it was a technique from a completely different realm.
‘That’s not an excuse, but… .’
I should have thought of this possibility from the moment I heard the word Rich.
In the meantime, I arrived right in front of the building that Ye-seul Jin had been talking about, which became Margo’s dungeon.
Choi Hyun-woo, who got out of the car and looked around, muttered.
“… Am I the only one who can’t feel anything?”
“No, Hyeonu, you are normal. The morale of a Necromancer is not felt unless it is a special case. Besides, like I said before, it is constantly moving.”
In my head, the image of Han Soo-young from another world that I met that day, who had the power that I couldn’t resist, came to mind.
Sbangali said he had the strength to compete with Minervana Juno and Venus, even if he didn’t win.
From the fact that it was possible to do it alone, it was said that he had already surpassed the realm of human beings.
And the undead she dealt with… .
The more I recalled those clearly engraved in my memory, the more convinced I was that the morale of that size could not have disappeared so quickly.
“Originally, unless you are a priest or a sensing type, you can’t even find a trace… .”
Having said that, I turned my head and looked at the companions.
Here, the people who could definitely sense the energy were me and Ye-eun Lee, who had the World Tree, and, as I said earlier, the reason or degree belonging to the excellent sensing type.
Shin Woo-seok said that his organ was to set up a barrier and detect it, but he did not know whether he would actually be able to detect it.
“Like my sister and me, we use the world tree to find energy. It probably won’t take long with the two of us.”
“Yeah, okay. It’s been a long time since the two of us collaborated.”
Yeeun Lee said that and came closer to me.
When I reached out, she reached out as well.
And the two of us began to scatter the branches of the World Tree on the ground almost simultaneously in time.
“Suck… .”
Then, each of them closed their eyes to see if they were trying to find their own, and began to catch their breath as if meditating.
Choi Hyun-woo was wary of the surroundings as if to protect us, and Jin Ye-seul began to be wary of the surroundings like Choi Hyun-woo while stabbing the shadow of Henir whom he loved for nothing.
[The fraud left by the Necromancer must be very difficult to find.]
I nodded my head as if I knew what Sbangali said.
Still, I thought I was lucky.
Surveillance and vigilance must have been very thorough in this area, so the Rich wouldn’t have been able to move openly to detect the energy.
In addition, it was difficult to detect in the first place, so it was reasonable to expect that he had not yet been able to find it.
“there.”
“yes?”
Meanwhile, Han Soo-young, who had been dazed, suddenly pointed a finger somewhere.
“It’s over there. over there.”
Han Soo-young said in a confident voice.
I nodded, knowing that she had no way of detecting this kind of energy.
“Let’s go for now.”
“What?”
“Let’s go to what Sooyoung said. There must be something to be sure of that.”
She wasn’t the kind of person who acted that way when she wasn’t sure.
Above all, she is Han Soo-young from another world… That is, he was the person who had the longest contact with another future self.
He might have really felt something.
“… here.”
After following her for a while, we stopped in front of a fairly large commercial building.
Me and Yeeun Lee reflexively stretched out the branches of the world tree towards it, but they couldn’t feel anything.
“Are you sure?”
“yes. here it is I can be sure.”
After thinking for a while at Han Soo-young’s words, I first took out my cell phone and sent the current coordinates to Lee Myung-joon and others.
Then he looked at Shin Woo-seok and said.
“Woo-seok, can you wait here?”
“What can I do, Master?”
“Please spread the barrier around this shopping street. In addition, if we lose contact with those who went inside, immediately guide the reinforcements including Lee Myung-jun and Laura.”
“Are you planning on going right in?”
“Yes.”
I nodded.
“It’s okay to wait and go, but… A necromancer is a being that can produce firepower that is comparable to a legion even alone. So those who have mastered necromancy are officially designated regardless of whether they actually committed a crime.”
Han Soo-young from another world was literally a legion.
It must have been no nonsense for her that the world had been destroyed.
If a lich eats or handles her remnants… .
“So now it is right to move as quickly as possible to find the source and secure it. There is no need to give the other person more time… Above all, if he had been here, he would have known we were here sooner.”
As I was saying that, a few questions suddenly popped into my mind.
Han Soo-young from another world would have left after capturing the morale she had left until just before she died.
It was because not only her, but all the necromancers and wizards with excellent skills.
It will be easier to understand when you consider that the witch Isabel Gaudí, whose name is now obscure, was not very good at first meeting, and was spreading the morale around her.
But that made me even more skeptical.
‘How the hell is he… .’
How the hell did you find out about her?
* * *
We left Wooseok Shin outside and went straight into the shopping mall.
Me and Hyun-woo Choi stood in the front, Yu-na and Han Su-young in the middle, and Ye-seul Jin and Ye-eun Lee at the end.
In each line, one person who can detect is put evenly, and in the front row, I and Choi Hyun-Woo have a relatively strong defense and are excellent at close combat.
And in the middle, Han Soo-young, who is excellent at improvisation and can cope with any situation, and Han Soo-young, who will use magic to play the role of a battery battalion.
Lastly, Lee Ye-eun, who will sniper with a bow and provide support through the blessing of the World Tree, and Jin Ye-seul, who will protect Lee Ye-eun and respond immediately in case of a surprise attack, was the most optimal formation.
In that way, we came into the shopping mall with everything ready and looked around the shop, which was quiet and empty to the extent that it felt badly.
“Then how do you move? from the basement? Or should I go upstairs and check it out?”
“First, let’s check the surroundings one more time.”
At my words, Yeeun Lee and Yuna Lee began to detect if there was anything hidden around them.
But this time too, I couldn’t feel anything.
It was when I thought that Han Soo-young might have misunderstood something, so I slightly turned my head.
“Soo, Sooyoung. what are you doing now… ?!”
Surprised, before Lee Yu-na could even stop her, she suddenly threw a fireball at a certain place and smashed it.
It was when everyone looked at her in amazement at her sudden action.
“… Jihyuk is as you said.”
Han Soo-young, who frowned for a moment and pressed her forehead with her hand, sighed and moved her hand.
“Looks like you already knew and was preparing.”
“Ugh!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Hyun-woo Choi swung his sword to strike something flying, and I reached down to take the weapon out of the shadows.
“… yes?”
[Well? Oh hey! Minerva!]
Then, nothing came out, so I looked down to see something, and suddenly a spear and a sword came out.
Has Minerva taken over all of Henir’s shadow?
I grabbed the weapon protruding from the ice with both hands and thought with a small chuckle.
“Because it’s a skeleton, it’s standard.”
Yeeun Lee, who quickly fired a bow and shattered the skeleton that threw a sharp iron pipe at us, muttered like that.
“You think this is right? Maybe he found it first.”
“But I didn’t feel anything. Uh, the undead have a unique feeling, so they can’t hide it… .”
When Choi Hyun-woo and Lee Yu-na were muttering like that, Han Soo-young opened her mouth as if answering.
“… It was different from what I felt then.”
I nodded my head at her words.
It was as she said.
An undead that hides energy.
Could he possibly be able to summon such an undead?
If Han Soo-young from another world created an undead that could fully use the abilities of her lifetime, the Rich of Milited’s children seemed to be able to create an undead that could hide their energy.
‘I should have told you this… .’
Blaming Belluna for nothing, he immediately took a fighting stance.
Then I felt something moving with a rattling sound all around me.
“Uh… .”
“huh.”
Soon after, countless skeletons began pouring out from the surrounding area.
Lee Ye-eun looked around and began to secretly export the branches of the world tree, and Jin Ye-seul just sneered as if jokingly and made the blade come out of her shoe.
That was then.
It wasn’t the sound of the skeletons, it was the sound of something sharp iron.
And Choi Hyun-woo, who was none of the people who saw the source of the sound, uttered a swear word full of sincerity.
“… This dog. ”
Across the line of sight, Durahhan was walking out.
A death knight known to hold a sword in one hand and a severed head in the other.
In one hand of the knight was the severed head of Choi Hyun-woo.
