Chapter 91 – Invasion (1)

“It seems that the main unit has collided with the enemy now.”

“He’s coming! In the northwest sky!”

Everyone who hurriedly got out of the car looked at the distant sky. At this moment, no matter what kind of fights are taking place elsewhere, no matter what kind of heart you have inside, you have no choice but to forget everything.

Something huge flying through the sky. It looked like a sky island in a legend, but if you look closely, there were elements that you could tell that it was a living creature, such as fins and a protruding face.

A few rounds of artillery fire from the army were fired, but befitting its huge body, the invasive species only moved forward without taking a single hit.

“That guy hasn’t appeared at the gate yet, but if he appears outside, the damage will be enormous. So we have to somehow build up more power before those guys show up in real life. I don’t know what will happen if I spend time like this. Wouldn’t it be the most unfair thing to be helpless?”

Derek opened his mouth, glancing at Lee Ji-yeon, who was staring blankly at Ireland. To some extent, his true intentions were revealed in the vast nature, monsters, and the overwhelming and daunting sight that unfolded before his eyes.

“…”

Lee Ji-yeon didn’t react much to those words, and only Oh Jin-hyeok, who was by her side, looked at him with sparkling eyes.

“How do I get to that monster now?”

“There is a way. A surer and safer method than helicopters.”

He smiled at Lee Ji-yeon’s question to focus only on the enemy in front of him, and introduced one of his subordinates.

“Obi, with the power this guy has, we can all rise to the sky.”

A small man named Obi grinned and drew on his powers. A light force covering a certain area spread out, and the bodies of those inside began to rise little by little all at once.

“Now we’re on Ireland’s back.”

‘And there, I will harvest the sacrifice again.’

Derek’s eyes twinkled as he looked at Lee Ji-yeon and Oh Jin-hyeok, who held on to each other in surprise and looked at the land with anxious eyes.

[I found Lee Ji-yeon]

However, no one there noticed that someone in camouflage was chasing after them with outstretched wings.

“The remaining time until Ireland raids the main unit, about 30 minutes!”

“Obi, land in the closest position. There is no time!”

As they approached each other, the speed at which they met was very fast. At the same time, a number of monsters, like a cloud of smoke, leaped through the air and charged at them.

Those approaching to intercept them are many Steam Ghosts, monsters whose bodies are mostly spiritual, and Ireland also recognizes the enemy coming toward them.

“I-I can’t fight in this state!”

“It is the same for us. Hold on until you fall!”

Jiyeon Lee shouted as she struggled on her legs, but Derek was also in a hurry. At least they managed to land on the edge of Ireland before Obi’s strength ran out.

The top of the carapace of a km class creature is enough to evoke the illusion of a flat wasteland touching the sky. But now they couldn’t afford to enjoy such a spectacle.

“for now! let’s fight! Because we have to protect our supplies!”

Wanting to secure a place as safe as possible to block the oncoming monsters, they rushed forward, and of course a fierce battle ensued.

It was such a fierce battle that he couldn’t care about other places because he was only dealing with the monsters coming from the front.

‘Not yet. There are too many of them now. After the number of them has decreased, a more perfect time.’

Derek, who had chosen as his weapon, a large sword with a red ore attached to the guard, adjusted the timing while fighting in the front line with Lee Ji-yeon.

Her shield, which slashes, pushes away, and sometimes slashes enemies, is definitely a strong iron wall, but the back is empty as much as that. The moment you miss it, you should be able to attack the neck and back at once and cut it off.

“There are fewer and fewer of them.”

“Let’s not be careless. There are definitely those who guard the center without leaving. And it’s our job to detonate the explosives we brought into Ireland’s real mouth, located at the heart of it.”

And it didn’t take long. The moment the monsters who had been rushing in to fend off them who had landed were blocked by their defense and took a step back.

Derek saw the moment as his opportunity.

“What are you doing?”

“Unbelievable. Still, I can’t believe you’re reacting to this.”

Derek smirked as he flinched at the shock wave accompanying the strong wind. It was actually close to luck that Lee Ji-yeon detected his attack with all his might and raised his shield to defend it. It was because the timing of her looking back coincided with the time he raised his sword.

“Didn’t I tell you earlier? I mean we have to be stronger. You don’t know what will happen to this world in the future. But in fact, this world has always been that way since a very long time ago. If you’re weak, you’ll just lose. Only strong forces can resist threats. There is nothing more miserable than being helpless without being able to resist.”

“What the hell does that have to do with this!?”

“The principle is simple. By killing strong Awoken like you, I can become stronger. Because that’s the opportunity given to me by the person who is my constellation and has come to visit me. If you kick an opportunity like that, you’re an idiot in the world.”

Derek, who responded with a smile to Lee Ji-yeon, who was taken aback, raised his greatsword and aimed it at Oh Jin-hyeok next to her, not at her.

Oh Jin-hyeok was already caught up in the weapons aimed at by his subordinates and was unable to move a single finger.

“The Constellation was such an existence? That can’t be the case, the Constellations are definitely beings that help the Awoken…”

“It is a great help to me, you are right. Of course, I don’t know if others do too. Anyway, if you give up resistance, I’ll let you go as painlessly as possible, so drop your weapon.”

Derek offered to surrender, and her eyes twitched wildly as she gritted her teeth. It was the first time in my life that I could not even imagine being betrayed.

“Comrades who died fighting alongside you. After all, they…!”

“Most, if not all, died at my hands. And paid for that blood, and killed more monsters. It’s the same today. I’ll kill you two and make sure I finish this dungeon instead.”

Derek, who turned his back to the sun while watching her sway, was convinced of his victory and revealed it. But now, Lee Ji-yeon, who had been shaken, managed to control her emotions and glared at him. His eyes were no longer shaken, and his body, which had been shaking with anger, calmed down.

‘I definitely predicted it in advance.’

Hope is not gone yet. Because there was someone who told him that he was suspicious that Derek’s gang was telling lies.

Seeing their eyes confident of victory, Lee Ji-yeon confronted her head-on.

“Oh, isn’t it too cold-hearted to think of fighting to the end in the end?”

Derek laughed at that scene and glanced at Oh Jin-hyeok, who was frozen in shock.

But at that moment.

“uh?”

Intense lightning magic spewed towards them from the empty space behind them.

“Jinhyuk can’t get hurt!”

[Manipulate individual currents and execute calculations]

The moment I used my magic in a hurry, I thought of Oh Jin-hyeok, who was taken hostage by them, and was shocked. However, as if nothing was wrong, Lucy manipulated the discharged electric shocks one by one and changed them so that only enemies could hit them.

“what…!”

“Aww!”

Those who were not electrocuted and burned to death fell into a panic at the sudden surprise, and as soon as Lee Ji-yeon saw me, she ran forward and attacked Derek, who was embarrassed.

“Cheuk…”

Her shield slashed Derek’s sword, slamming his body and causing him to fall. But at the same time, his kick kicked her in the stomach as well, causing her to vomit blood and roll on the floor.

“A monster, a monster…!”

“Lucy, it would be better to just transmit it to you in this state.”

I overpowered the mercenaries who were frightened at the sight of me spreading my wings and notified Lucy to change the plan. Because I had to save Lee Ji-yeon and Oh Jin-hyeok before they get hurt more.

[But then those on Ireland will fall to the far ground]

“It’s enough to save two people.”

[If so, run transfer]

Lucy did as I said and started sending right away. It’s so big that it will take some time, but hold on for the meantime.

I saw Lee Ji-yeon staggeringly embrace Oh Jin-hyeok, and I jumped at the still-conscious enemies and swung the sword in my hand.

A sword entwined with magical energy bursting out of the steel core can pierce through the Awakener’s superpowers and cut through them.

“This crazy monster…!”

Derek immediately got up from his seat and ran at me with a shout.

Indeed, his sword is destructive, as the saying goes, eating people and becoming stronger. He was said to be a mercenary who had been on the battlefield before he became an Awakener, and compared to Liam, who was only strong but lacked the basics, his handling of the sword was quite sharp.

[Anyway, it’s at the level of a low-ranking Orc Knight]

However, Lucy laughed at his swordsmanship as if it were cute, and in just 3 moves, he cut his sword and cut it in half.

“Sleep… ok..”

And without hesitation, he threw the sword in his hand and cut his leg deeply. Originally, the whole leg should have been cut off, but thanks to its strong body, it ended up being cut.

“Catch and kill. Foolishly throwing down his weapon…”

He groaned in pain and ordered his men to capture me. In fact, there were still several enemies left, but I ran towards Lee Ji-yeon and Oh Jin-hyeok without paying attention to them.

Seeing my behavior, they seemed to misunderstand that I was running away.

“Run away! catch!”

“Where… where?”

[Transfer completed]

At that moment, the ground on which they and I stood completely disappeared.

That huge creature, Ireland, was transported to the Pandemonium where Lucy is. A bizarre sensation, as if the world was turned off, felt momentarily.

“ah…”

Likewise, Jiyeon Lee, who was caught by the nape of her neck in my grasp right before the fall, sighed and screamed as she watched Derek’s mercenary corps and the monsters that fell below, who could not be seen properly, as she pulled Oh Jin-hyeok in her arms harder. hugged

No matter how awakened you are, no matter how strong you are, there’s no way you’ll be fine after you’ve fallen here. Even down there is like a den of enemies.

[Ireland, the specimen, has arrived here safely. As planned, the hunt begins]

“For now, drop us off at a safe place.”

At the same time, Lucy received the island sent from here.
