Episode 677 War of the Returners (2)
Excitingâ¦!
Teresaâs face, stripped of her divine power, turned into a doll.
Skin that has turned pale.
The green eyes were suddenly tinged with red.
[Due to the influence of the darkness attribute, the divinity of the paladin is damaged.]
[âCorruptionâ progresses rapidly.]
Kukukukuk!
âAhâ¦â
Teresaâs personality was greatly shaken.
âcontractor!â
Ellis let out a sharp cry.
Know.
But itâs still okay.
Teresaâs fall was predicted. Wasnât the reason she was corrupted from the beginning to create a final weapon that could handle both divine power and dark attributes?
Except that the speed is faster than desired, it is still an area that can be controlled.
[The unique ability âSanctuary of the Sunâ is implemented to its maximum!]
[The influence of âStarâs Protectionâ and âMandalaâ is maximized!]
Although it was not comparable to the system, it could still provide some support.
The light that was not taken away by the lamp barely supported Teresaâs reason.
In this case, first aid was administeredâ¦
right then.
âKickâ¦!â
Teresaâs personality changed.
This is the first time to see a blackened version with almost all of its divine power gone.
Jinhyuk anxiously waited for Theresaâs reaction.
So far, the black version of Teresa has shown a very friendly attitude. Maybe now that his original personality is almost gone, he might have the same reactionâ¦
âHey. Are you finally completely free? âHow long has it been since this?â
A smile as red and gorgeous as blood.
Teresa relaxedly bent her knuckles and pulled out the sword from the ground.
âAs you can see, the situation is not very good. âIâm sorry, but you have to help us.â
âHmm. Are you saying you need my help? âHow do you survive?â
âIf we are to survive, we all have to work together.â
âwell? âWouldnât it be better for a guy who doesnât understand how a woman feels to just die right now?â
What came out of Teresaâs mouth were different from what I expected.
âOr⦠it might not be a bad idea to cut off all the limbs and keep them by the side. okay. That would be better. I think Sunding would be very sad if I killed him. âIf itâs this much of a compromise, heâll be able to accept it.â
I donât know what kind of bullshit they are saying in such a novel way.
âSeriouslyâ¦â
Just before she said, Teresa began swinging the strangely transformed holy sword.
Anyone can see that it is completely sincere.
That fallen saint full of madness would really make me her pet.
In a situation where it was difficult to deal with the enemies right away, the worst variable arose.
There is no choice but to suppress it.
Jinhyuk took a stance.
âshit! Solve it quickly. âI canât do it alone!â
Cheon Yu-seong shouted.
As I was put in a situation where I had to deal with the Degoria Balrog alone, I couldnât help but feel anxious.
Well, if itâs the Balrog that the returnees saved, it wonât be easy even if youâre a swordsman.
But what can you do?
This one is also urgent.
âUh huh, donât fuss and just wait calmly. What if Iâm in a hurry and someone gets hurt? Yes, this kind of thing. âItâs important to have some honest conversations and let go of old feelings.â
Corruption is not a childâs joke.
This is not something that can be solved by doing things in moderation.
of course.
The biggest goal was that the guy wanted to see Geomseong sweating profusely.
From above.
Under.
Kwaaaaang!
A black meteorite fell.
[Degoria activates âAbyss Maceâ!]
âGagging!â
Cheon Yu-seong caught the enormous mace from below.
A blow that felt ridiculously heavy collided with âRyu Hwaâ.
The ground split like a turtleâs shell, and a stalemate ensued between those who tried to crush it and those who tried to hold on
. Stop that.
It is a sight to see that the clothes are torn to shreds and the arm muscles are exposed.
Jinhyuk openly let out an exclamation as he thought that his bones had not broken.
âWhen⦠to say⦠something nice. âQuick⦠solve it.â
Cheon Yu-seong glared at Jin-hyuk with bloodshot eyes.
A feeling of death more terrifying than Teresaâs was felt throughout her body.
âyes.â
Jinhyuk nodded vigorously at Mach speed.
***
Same time.
The other side also noticed something unusual.
âThat stupid Pink is doing it again.â
Ellis looked in the direction where black energy was slowly coming out.
Ever since the Balrog absorbed divine power, I thought something unusual would happen, but as expected, the ominous predictions were never wrong.
Although the original goal of getting Clemenceâs attention was important, protecting the contractor was the priority right now.
Puff puff puff!
Ellis fired red skewers wildly and opened a path through the undead troops.
But right then.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Damn itâ¦!
The ground turned to frost.
As a harsh snowstorm came, the cold that even magic power could not bear penetrated deep into the bones.
There is someone.
This is not an ordinary monster, but a returnee who has gone through many hardships.
Jerk. Jerk.
A muscular man in his 70s walked through the snowstorm.
Vingov, the âcorpse sculptorâ.
A warrior born in the cold region of the 5th floor of the Tower of Trials stood up to Ellis.
âItâs an honor. As a hunter, I never thought I would have the opportunity to face the matriarch of Ataraxia. âI think today is the luckiest day of my life.â
Vingov stroked the ax blade.
The eyes filled with madness were shining.
âWhat an amazing old man it is that the day he dies is the luckiest and most comfortable. âIâll make you regret saying that.â
Ellis made a cold expression at Vingovâs provocation.
âGiggles! It looks like the great Jinjo is very angry. Donât be so cold-hearted. âCouldnât you at least grant the old manâs last wish?â
[Vingov activates his unique ability âHeart Freezeâ!]
My skin freezes.
My breath freezes.
Everything you see is white. It freezes to an extremely white color.
âNo matter how good a pureblood you are, what good will it be if you freeze?â
In the face of extremely low temperatures, even a drop of blood would be nothing more than a liquid.
The plastic surgeon, who freezes living creatures and displays them, even planned to make Jinjo part of his collection.
Ellis still looked at Vingov with an unimpressed expression.
As if to say that there is no need to even properly listen to threats from mere mortals.
âFirst of all, I need to change that expression.â
[Heart-freezing âearly frostâ is activated!]
As the moisture freezes, sharp ice is created.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
It was extremely cold, but the ridiculous attack range that turned everything around it into ice was especially threatening.
Damn it!
Ellisâ body was swallowed up by the white fog.
Naturally, Jinjoâs body is much higher than that of an ordinary resident. Although it was affected by the extreme cold, it was not enough to completely suppress it.
Vingovâs movements became even faster.
âYou probably wonât get hit to this extent.â
[Heart-freezing âFrost of the Deadâ and âFrost of Sunsetâ are activated!]
A wind like a knife blew from the left and right.
The fog became even thicker.
Temperature continues to drop.
It thoroughly destroys the concentration of Aliceâs magic power and at the same time calculates the escape route and movement radius and puts her in a corner.
Vingov, who pursues the perfect hunt, did not pass over even the smallest possibility.
How long has it been like that?
Vingov, who had accumulated a level of coldness that seemed excessive, drove in the wedge.
Kukukukukuku!
The tip of the ax blade turned dazzling white.
[The unique spear âDawn of Infinityâ is activated!]
Partsâ¦!
White lines followed the frozen ground.
Vingovâs power is maximized not in destruction or defense.
The seal targeting the strongest single entity is the greatest weapon.
Absolute zero.
In a realm where even time freezes. All conditions were met to seal Jinjo. A circular pillar of ice reached up to the sky.
âWhoa.â
Vingov wiped the sweat from his forehead.
To put it bluntly, it was a seal that poured everything it could into.
âOriginally⦠I would have locked it in here forever and admired its beauty. Itâs a pity. âThere are more important things at stake in this matter than personal preference.â
Vingovâs muscles swelled as if they were about to explode.
If you are hit by an ax while completely sealed, instant death is activated.
Even Jinjo, whose entire body is frozen, will not be able to escape that fate.
This is the end.
Vingov took a stance to swing the ax sharply with both hands.
Right then.
I had the illusion that Ellisâ eyes inside the ice were moving slightly.
No way.
This means that in order to be normal, you must not even be aware that you are sealed inside.
however.
Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
!
A flash of light shot up from Ellisâs body, which she thought was completely frozen.
The coagulated blood melted and became redder than ever.
[The unique spear âRevelation of the Gaebyeokâ is activated!]
âIt is insignificant ice.â
A solid yet flawless magic power.
A purebred species that despises all things looked down at the hunter in the snowy field.
âPurebloods are called purebloods because they never lose their shine under any circumstances.â
***
Quaaaang!
A clash between swords and swords.
Terrifying shock waves spread one after another.
Teresa, who received the plainclothes sword from the front, moistened her lips with her tongue.
[Teresa activates âHumb of the Rockâ!]
Moment.
A sticky, weary feeling penetrated my heart.
A mental binding technique.
Jinhyukâs body temporarily stiffened. Without missing that moment, Teresa raised her auror and swung her sword.
Buuuuung!
With its terrifying piercing sound, the black holy sword drew a path of death.
Kaaaang!
The sword stopped right next to Jinhyukâs right arm.
Itâs a close second.
Because the timing of restraint and attack was so perfect. However, this one also had at least one additional insurance.
âIf you touch my lord⦠I wonât let you go.â
Wolyoung, who was in the shadows, intervened.
âIsnât it too much for our pretty boy to have feelings for you, master? This is why our Sundingie gets jealous. âBecause there are rivals everywhere.â
ââ¦Just stop talking nonsense.â
As Teresa died, Wolyoungâs face became even colder.
Kakakakakang!
Immediately, sword and sword clashed.
Although he was inferior in skill, Wolyoungâs fierce attack that risked his life made it impossible to foresee the situation even an inch ahead.
âgood.â
Jinhyuk, who was watching the two fight frantically, nodded quietly.
While improving Wolyeongâs combat sense, he was also able to understand the combat patterns and tendencies of the fallen Teresa.
More than anything.
Quick!
As Teresa went on a rampage, another monster fighting on the other side awoke.
[Eliseâs emotions are greatly disturbed!]
âHow dare you touch someone!â
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
Ellisâ magic power stirred greatly.
The amplitude of the blood road has become deeper than before.
I knew it.
The little queen reacts more sensitively than anyone else when it comes to things related to Teresa. The pure-blooded true ancestor began to approach this direction, knocking Vingov away with a single blow.
Letâs see.
What can you do to add fuel to a burning house?
Jinhyuk scratched his chin with his fingers.
oh!
Just then a good method occurred to me.
There is a way to prevent Teresaâs corruption and further increase Ellisâ power.
