Chapter 71-Reasons for War (1)

Episode 71 – The reason for the war (1)

“We have to buy time. The more we break through, the greater the damage!”

Literally abysmal. The peaceful coastal city quickly became a hell where monsters rampage.

However, the fighters who urgently sortied could not bear to fire missiles and only circled the sky.

It won’t work if you shoot at the monsters right now. The magical energy shield that some objects are casting is intact.

However, it was impossible to bomb a city where people had not yet evacuated, so it was like a slope.

“Awakeners! Awokeners must eliminate those special species…!”

People finally got a sense of how to fight that group of monsters. It is an impossible battle with only the firepower of the army as long as the type of power is different. You need the help of an awakened person who can neutralize the opponent’s magical power.

Fortunately, there were many high-class awakening people from all over the world.

As they actively stepped forward, the enemy’s advance was obviously slowed down, and cracks began to form in the composition.

“Joe, be careful.”

“Be sure to stay behind me. This way.”

It was then that Lee Ji-yeon and Oh Jin-hyeok, who were moving alone in a hurry, ran into a group of enemies chasing people who were running away in the middle of the city.

‘I’m used to it.’

Lee Ji-yeon, who raised her shield, faced the monsters attacking her with Oh Jin-hyeok behind her. It was all too familiar to her to stand in front while fighting alone, and to fight with someone behind.

And Oh Jin-hyeok’s firepower, which spews flames, could show enough power if there were no special enemies like flame eater.

“great job.”

Jiyeon Lee tried to attack herself, but pushed away the body of the charred monster. The monster, named Double Jaw Maw, collapsed and rolled on the floor with its jaws wide open.

“But…”

“Right. It’s not over yet. This way!”

The first battle that took place in the middle of the day was easily won, but in the end it was only one battle. Screams and shouts, and the cries of monsters could be heard from all directions.

They were in a very urgent situation, but in a state where the connection with the upper part, which was mana, was cut off, they continued to move their bodies with arbitrary judgment.

The next opponents are the soldiers fighting with all their might and the monsters trying to break through the rain of bullets.

Lee Ji-yeon, who couldn’t bear to back down because she had to protect the citizens, kicked off the ground and jumped into the air to protect them. She killed an enemy with her shield who was about to bite a soldier with her eyes closed.

“Let’s fight together.”

Jiyeon Lee, who stood on top of the monster’s corpse, told them.

Looking at the hope and fighting spirit that started to fill up again in their wide-eyed eyes, they could tell what each other was thinking even if they couldn’t communicate.

“Awakener! Ammunition, ammunition has run out. Civilians have evacuated, so now we have to retreat!”

They had only been fighting together for a few minutes, but since they started fighting together, they haven’t taken a single step back.

However, it is not possible to fight infinitely just by being ahead of one’s heart. The platoon commander, who was in a hurry to lead his platoon, knocked on the magazine of his rifle and shouted to Lee Ji-yeon.

“I think you’ve run out of bullets?”

“Then I’d like these people to go back.”

Oh Jin-hyeok, whose face was slightly pale due to his violent use of force, understood the gesture even though he did not understand the words, and she nodded her head upon hearing those words.

“Oh my God! I’m coming again!”

But before they could dodge, another group of enemies rushed towards them. That number is likely to be several times the current number.

At the same time, Lee Ji-yeon’s face hardened.

Her abilities aren’t strong enough to deal with multiple enemies. Oh Jin-hyeok was also getting tired, and he could not receive support from the soldiers.

“Jinhyeok, retreat to the rear with you and these people.”

“Yes…?!”

In that situation, she made a choice without hesitation. Oh Jin-hyeok, taken aback, asked, but she did not waver. Because this is why she fights in the first place.

“This!”

But at that moment. A flash of blue flash flooded the enemies, who seemed to number well over a hundred, causing a great explosion.

“What, what!”

“Is it a mistake?!”

People stumbled in fright from the shock wave that exploded, or fell to the ground and rolled. Lee Ji-yeon, who was at the forefront, also frowned and raised her shield to offset the impact, but her body was pushed slightly.

“Lee, Liam Anderson.”

At that time, Oh Jin-hyeok, who hid behind her shield, recognized the person standing in the middle of the shock and muttered blankly.

It was Liam Anderson, a stout man wearing shiny silver armor and holding a sword blazing with blue energy in his hand.

“I just stopped by on the way, so I think it’d be better to run away quickly.”

He smiled and said so. Because he had only one purpose in the first place. It was only because of the command of the upper level that the communicator whispered in my ear that I stopped in the middle like this.

“A passing road? Where are you going?”

“To kill those who brought these monsters.”

Looking at Lee Ji-yeon standing in front of him, he pointed with his hand to the behemoths that were slowly appearing after releasing all the monsters across the beach at someone’s question. While people were screaming at each other, the Behemoths were steadily approaching.

“…No one can fight with me right now. I’d rather clean this place together and fight after that.”

“That’s something that you with a shield should take care of. For a person with a sword, it’s your job to kill enemies.”

Lee Ji-yeon opened her mouth in English and raised her eyebrows. He smiled faintly and pointed at her shield that had been broken with his sword.

And Lee Ji-yeon, who realized the intention of the words, did not bother to persuade him. He was more interested in killing enemies than saving people.

“It’s not cheap.”

“It’s not wrong. I don’t know if I was stronger.”

He left soon after. In the moment of awkwardness, Oh Jin-hyeok opened his mouth first with a grumpy face, but she smiled bitterly and did not agree.

***

‘That Asian woman. I’ll have to check it out.’

When all the invasive species have infiltrated the city and are rampaging. Thanks to that, Liam ran across the empty beach and across the sea full of damaged battleships as if he were on land, laughing.

He believed his eyes. After breaking through a certain level based on his natural talent, he has awakened the power to see.

In those eyes, Lee Ji-yeon was a warrior with her own firmness. A seed that might reach a level similar to itself if it fully blooms.

Although he is a child alone, he did not really hate those who could be of his own kind. Rather, I was interested.

“Can you really handle it alone? It’s this big.”

“If it was an inanimate object of this size, that is, a battleship, it would have been impossible. But after all, it is a living thing? All living things have weaknesses.

Landing on the back of Behemoth, who was swimming in the water after kicking off the air at once, he snorted at the voice he heard from the communicator and grabbed the sword in his hand in reverse.

It’s not something called a holy sword for nothing. In one world, the sword containing the power of the Great Saint, who is now slowly approaching the transcendent, further amplified and maximized his crude and rough magical power.

“Look for it, you crazy monster!”

He inserted the sword, overflowing with blue magic, into the middle of the wide back, right down to the handle. But it is clearly visible in his eyes.

This part where he inserted the sword is none other than the part corresponding to Behemoth’s cervical vertebrae. The power that extended from the sword pierced the leather and muscle that was several meters thick and hit the Behemoth’s vital point accurately.

“right!”

Liam burst into rapturous laughter as he heard the animal’s plaintive howl echoing in all directions. The moment he drew his sword, the massive body rocked and bubbling as it slowly sank into the sea.

‘Not yet. I can monopolize more.’

At the same time, he trembled intoxicated by the immense power flowing through his body. The status window recognized the achievement of catching Behemoth as his.

That is why he fights. More power, and everything that comes with it.

“Still left. The rest of them…”

“I know!”

He attacked the other Behemoths as well. The large Behemoths, who only had high defense, could not handle Liam, who was at the level of a tick compared to them, and were treated one by one and sank into the sea.

“This is the end!”

Suddenly, only one Behemoth was left. But then, convinced of his complete victory, he climbed onto the back of the last remaining Behemoth with a hearty smile.

“…Who are you?”

Liam had an unexpected presence. A being that resembles a human in appearance, but whose entire body is covered with something quivering black.

His face was also smooth, and the large one eye on his chest looked straight at Liam, dreaming.

“Yeah. There’s no way there’s no one guarding these guys.”

Liam judged the opponent to be part of an invasive species guarding the Behemoth. It was because the opponent’s appearance was so bizarre that this kind of prejudice arose.

“Anderson, I think we’d better retreat. It’s a monster with no information.”

“Now there’s one left, what nonsense is that?”

Liam raised his sword, refusing orders from his superiors to retreat to safety. Rather, the spirit of victory is boiling in his heart.

“Do you use a sword too?”

He smiled and giggled at the unique single-edged sword made of carapace that the opponent was holding.

‘can win.’

Liam believed his eyes again. Because his eyes, which are close to instinct, can roughly guess the magic power of the opponent.

And the power of the opponent reflected in those eyes is obviously weaker than oneself. Confident in his superiority based on that, he burst into magic and charged at the opponent without hesitation, brandishing his sword.

The already rough power meets the Holy Sword to maximize its power. On that sword, blue flames that cut even steel flew randomly.

“…!”

However, it did not happen that the sword cut the opponent at once.

Likewise, the opponent’s sword, which began to burn black flames, was blocked by a shock wave, and rather quickly, a strong kick was fired at him.

[Run battle]

“I think I know why, but I can win first, right?”

[I learned painfully from repeating the past wars that you cannot win a war with just output alone. can win It is natural to win

The two beings conversed inside the dark creature as Liam, kicked right, fell to the floor.

One of those voices, Lucy, finished the calculations without the slightest hesitation and brought victory to the outcome of this battle.
