Chapter 067 Monster Corps

oh oh oh!

The trolls whose attacks were blocked howled as if they were angry and tried to step on me.

“So, avoid everyone. Don’t be idly by.”

When I told those who were still sitting down, they came to their senses and supported the injured and moved away.

The guards who were playing in the back also came and helped them.

As I watched people fall back to safety, a shadow fell over my head.

I looked up and saw the soles of the troll’s feet.

I left my shield and rolled away.

thud!

I could feel the ground shaking through my body.

Trolls were difficult to deal with because of their regeneration.

The speed of recovery was so great that if you cut your body, it would grow back from the bones.

Most of them are distracted by the sight and get beaten by trolls.

The only thing that could stop its regeneration was cutting off its head, but trolls usually have a height of about 6 to 8 floors, so it wasn’t easy to cut the head.

That’s why you should never deal with it alone.

Of course, only in general cases.

[Can I help you?]

‘are you okay.’

[Two?]

Two trolls?

It wasn’t that difficult opponent for me now.

‘I must have forgotten how I beat you.’

[Ah, this son of a wizard.]

Standing up, I shook off the dirt and looked at them.

The size of the two guys was about the height of the sixth floor of a building.

“Yoo Seo-jun! Are you going to fight alone?! Can I help you?”

Taemin’s cry was heard from behind.

“If you can help, come and help!”

I deliberately threw the bait.

As expected, the guy murmured.

“You can do it alone? I get it. cheer up!”

ask or not

It was clear that he had asked his grandfather to make up an excuse.

“I said I would definitely help!”

Then it is.

Ignoring Pyo Tae-min who kept talking behind the scenes, I prepared elemental magic to deal with the trolls.

He made the element of water in one hand and the element of air in the other.

Maybe the guys started to be wary of me, so they were more cautious than before.

[Trolls can’t even pierce their skin with most circle magic.]

‘know.’

I knew the circle concept this time, but I knew it because I had seen trolls that deflect magic from wizards before returning.

That tolerable magic doesn’t work.

And I knew another way to deal with trolls.

[What are you going to do?]

‘What if a guy with the ability to regenerate directly attacks the heart?’

[How to attack the heart through that thick skin and muscle?]

As Gilliant said, it was not easy to directly attack the troll’s heart.

But I was not an ordinary wizard, but an elementalist.

‘There are ways.’

First, I used the elements of water and wind to freeze their legs and immobilize them.

Whoa?!

big oh

The two trolls, whose legs were frozen, struggled to break the ice.

After that, I put the element of wind into their bodies through their respiratory system.

Then, he returned the element of wind he had sharpened.

aaagh!

Guaaagh!

Along with their grotesque sounds, blood poured from their mouths like a waterfall.

I continued to concentrate, spinning the wind element inside their bodies sharper and faster.

After a while, the strange sounds of the guys stopped and the surroundings became quiet.

The lower bodies of the two frozen trolls had their eyes turned upside down and their arms hung limp from exhaustion.

And as if confirming that they were dead, a message popped up.

[The dungeon has been cleared. The gate closes.]

[Remaining time 15:00]

Fifteen minutes is a bit tight, but it was a time to save everyone who was seriously injured.

“What are you doing! Come on, without rescue! You guys get your loot!”

Pyo Tae-min, who had been watching from behind, began to move.

I went to Minyoung who was looking after the seriously injured.

“how is it?”

“My shoulders are completely sunken. I think it will take a while.”

“Thank you.”

The man expressed his gratitude to Min-young and me, even though he was in an awkward state, perhaps because he had been hit by a troll’s club.

Kang Chun-soo, who was next to me, bowed his head and thanked me.

“thank you. If it wasn’t for Yoo Seo-Jun, I would have died. In particular, thank you for saving my brother’s life.”

It seems that the injured man was Kang Chun-soo’s younger brother, Kang Hyeon-soo of the Chungwoon Guild.

I had only heard the name, but it was the first time I had seen his face.

“Well, the situation is a little sh*tty, but if it wasn’t for Pyo Tae-min over there, you wouldn’t even know you were in this situation and you would have passed by.”

The situation was a bit bad, but it was right that they could be saved because of Pyo Tae-min anyway.

If Pyo Tae-min hadn’t been relaxed outside, the damage would have been less than now.

“This is Joo-yeon from the Ga-yeon Guild. Thank you, Avengers, for your help.”

“I am Yubin Kim from the Yubin Guild. I thank you too.”

I knew Joo-yeon’s face because I’d seen her once, but I’d only heard of the guild name for Kim Yu-bin, but it was the first time I’d met her.

“For more detailed stories, we will move first. We will have to call for help from a nearby hospital to move all the wounded.”

The first thing we had to do was safely move the fallen guild members.

In addition to the three trolls, there were several monsters they would have dealt with.

[Awesome. So many different monsters fought together?]

‘Then why not?’

Since I have often seen cases like this at the gate, when I expressed my doubts, Gillian answered firmly.

[This can never happen. It can’t happen without someone’s control.]

‘Manipulation? Are you a demon?’

[I can’t say for sure. Because it’s something even our dragon can do. Or a powerful wizard.]

‘Hmm, in that case, it just happened in your world, right?’

[You should see that.]

‘But there’s a possibility that the demons do that, so we need to be careful.’

[hmm. If they’re really building an army of monsters, there must be some movement in our side of the world.]

‘If that’s the case, there’s a way to find out.’

At that time, a hunter belonging to the guard approached and said.

“Everybody got out of the gate safely.”

[Remaining time 01:30]

It was a situation with 1 minute and 30 seconds left.

Following the hunter, I also went out of the gate.

When I came out, I saw ambulances running in a row with red sirens flashing in the distance.

*

With the divine power of Min-young, Kang Hyeon-soo’s sunken bones were restored to some extent.

Thanks to that, the doctor was able to finish the surgery well, and he was rather grateful to Min-young.

‘The magic is great. Sooner or later our jobs may suck our fingers.’

I think he said something like that.

However, it seemed like there was nothing to worry about, as it would be rare to find someone with the same abilities as Minyoung.

While Kang Hyun-soo was lying in the hospital room, Min-young, Pyo Tae-min, and the three guild leaders came out into the hallway and talked.

“I would like to hear more about the gate situation.”

There were various monsters inside the gate.

As Gilliant said, it was necessary to find out if those monsters really fought in groups.

“is it so. Please tell me in detail.”

I was just going to stay still, but Pyo Tae-min helped me for no reason.

Well, he said it was to report to Pyo Cheon-deuk, but the hunters here were not happy with Pyo Tae-min.

Joo-yeon, who glared at Pyo Tae-min, turned her gaze to me and opened her mouth.

“When we entered, there were many types of monsters. They advanced as if they were an army.”

Following that, Yubin Kim talked about the situation at the time.

“At first, I thought it was no big deal, and as we said upon entering, each of us competed for loot.”

When attacking the same gate, it was the most reasonable way the guild thought for the person who dealt with the monster to acquire the loot.

“As the battle lengthened, problems arose. As these guys moved very systematically, we, who fought as individuals, became a structure that had no choice but to suffer damage.”

It was only after listening to Kang Chun-soo’s words that I could understand why things had grown so much.

It’s a competition where you can profit as you deal with the monsters, so you and I would have fought individually or in groups.

However, when the monsters started to move like an army, they were rather defeated individually.

“In the first place, we went in for competition, not cooperation, so it collapsed in an instant.”

Joo Yeon bit her lip as she said that.

It seemed that they liked the fact that they had hurt the guild members with their own wrong choices.

“Then the trolls showed up and things got even worse.”

I must have. He hadn’t even dealt with the other monsters, and he was blinded by the competition, so he wouldn’t have thought of joining forces.

“That’s how it happened.”

I looked at Pyo Taemin next to me. The expression didn’t matter.

If he told this story to Pyo Chun-deuk, he must have felt that he would be robbed.

To be honest, even if this guy had gone in a little faster and intervened, it wouldn’t have been this big.

“Everyone has worked hard. I’ll just let him go back.”

“thank you. Blue Dragon and Blue Cloud owe a debt to the Avengers.”

“me too. If I have a chance to repay you someday, I will definitely repay this favor.”

“The same goes for Gayeon Guild.”

The three guild leaders bowed their heads to me while saying that.

I said with a smile at their sudden greeting.

“Write down the debt carefully.”

At my greeting, everyone made a little absurd expression, and then they laughed.

“They said it wasn’t the culprit, and that rumor is true. Yes, I will write it down very well.”

After saying that, Joo-yeon turned to Kang Chun-soo.

“Now, me and Yubin will also go and look at our guild members. Kang Chun-soo. Your brother, you were a little cool today. The hunter’s speech about duty was well listened to. Let’s do better in the future.”

“Yes, I will always accept goodwill competition. Come on again.”

“Really? At that time, my arrows will be much faster than your moonsword.”

Kim Yu-bin also said that and exchanged greetings with Kang Chun-soo.

“Oh, and Mr. Pyo Tae-min.”

“why?”

Joo-yeon held out her palm toward Pyo Tae-min.

“I heard you took all the loot from the guard? We’ll take care of that, so can you give it to us?”

“joy. Here is the warehouse key.”

It seemed that Pyo Tae-min ordered the guards to move the spoils he had obtained from this gate to the warehouse.

“Still, you’re not a complete asshole. I won’t bet on anything else this time.”

“Thank you very much.”

Ju-yeon jokingly said something to Pyo Tae-min, who spit it out, and left the hallway.

“I feel like it’s going to break a lot anyway. Let’s go, Yubin.”

Looking at the backs of the two people moving away, Pyo Tae-min put on a complicated expression.

“Suffer.”

I patted Pyo Tae-min on the back and took Min-young out of the hospital.

“I want to cut myself off.”

“great job.”

“Ugh, wake me up when I arrive.”

Sitting in the passenger seat and wearing a seat belt, Min-young fell asleep right away, feeling tired from treating so many people.

Wow-

The shouts of the soldiers resounded on the burning battlefield.

Douglas, the commander of the Empire’s vanguard, was heavily armed and was dealing with monsters at the forefront of the Empire’s army.

“Leader! At this rate, I will be pushed back!”

“Hold on! break through! That’s what our vanguard will do! Don’t be pushed!”

Douglas shouted and put more strength into the hand holding his shield, [Firm Will].

Kiek!

The monsters trying to break through the shield-built camp made a bizarre noise.

“Captain, have you ever seen monsters do this?”

“I also see it for the first time. Even those who are intertwined in the food chain are cooperating.”

In the fall, there were quite a few monsters attacking the village for the farm’s harvest season.

When subjugating such monsters, there was a natural order in the ecosystem.

But now, the monsters in front of the Imperial Army were ignoring that order and cooperating with each other.

“Have the court mages been contacted?”

“Yes, we are teleporting this way now.”

“That’s it. everyone! Hold on a little longer! The wizards of the Empire are coming!”

“hey! Douglas! Take the shield away!”

Then, a sharp voice came from behind.

Douglas looked back to see Adelina’s cavalry, clad in red armor, preparing to attack.

“It is not yet time! Wait for the wizards to come!”

“You are laughing! Is it because you don’t know my spearmanship? Don’t talk and get rid of it! If you don’t want to be crushed! under! What!”

Saying that, Adelina kicked the horse’s side.

Adelina’s cavalry formed a wedge formation as if it had become a huge spear as a signal, and started running.

“sh*t! Vanguard, open the way!”

With Douglas’ shout, a gap opened up in the ranks that were blocking the monsters with shields in the vanguard.

The monsters trying to squeeze through the gap were pierced by Adelina’s spear and crushed by the cavalry’s horses.

“omg.”

It was then.

Douglas hesitated for a moment, feeling dizzy.

“Leader! Are you okay? Is it the sound of that heart again?”

Douglas could not answer the commanding officer’s question.

Yes, because the message popped up again.

[Starts connecting with Seo-Jun Yoo on Earth.]

“I’m fine! As soon as the cavalry passes by, they go to support! We must somehow hold out until the wizards arrive!”

“yes!”

As Douglas said, he confirmed the newly emerging message.

[Your soul is cloned and passed over to Earth.]
