9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword - Chapter 431
Episode 431
Episode 138. To save the black wolves (4)
Kurrrr..
An explosion erupted from the ground.
At the same time, parts of the ground exploded and began pouring out lava-like auras.
The pools of black blood that had stuck to the ground like scabs evaporated in an instant. It was erased by the heat of the erupting aura.
Yuma’s aura spreads like a tidal wave.
The demons that were swept away by it disappeared without a single scream without a single scream.
Dozens of thick coffins, shining white, trampled the ground and seemed to run amok. While the aura surged and burrowed into the ground repeatedly, the number of monsters rapidly decreased.
“What is this?”
“Is that Yuma Drake? You say you can do something like this when you’re not the boss?”
The regular members who barely survived could not believe it even when they saw the scene in front of them.
How can we accept this landscape as a phenomenon caused by a human sticking a sword into the ground?
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…!
The Aura, which moved flexibly like a snake, roamed the ground for a long time after that. Yuma just stood in the middle and watched the monsters scatter and die.
‘Looks like it’s been sorted out.’
Would it be like this if the clouds filling the sky disappeared in an instant, or if the storm that was pounding the sea suddenly stopped?
When Yuma returned and reaped the explosion, the entire earth, which had been dyed in blue, regained its gloomy color.
However, the densely located monsters seemed to have been completely erased. In addition, the topography was completely changed to such an extent that only the color was darkened and the original shape of the land could not be found.
“Don’t panic if other monsters approach the barrier while I’m gone. It can’t be helped even if high-level demons come in droves.”
Yuma, who spoke to the members inside the barrier, started moving again.
To the north of where Kagor’s assault force was isolated, there is Chipen’s unit to the east of Yugi Le.
Of the two, Yuma decided to search Chipen’s unit first.
It was because Chipen was weaker than Yugire.
And there was also a belief that if it was Yugire, he wouldn’t die even against monsters of this size and would be able to hold on well.
‘If Yugir-nim had been killed in battle, Kagor’s troops would have been annihilated already.’
I screamed the same way I did when I checked Kagor’s location while heading east.
“Shoot the signal bullet, the Worg assault leader! Yuma Drake has come to save the Worgs!”
30 minutes to do that.
Yuma was able to confirm that the second flare flashed and lit up the sky. This time, it was a signal flare fired after waiting for Yuma to come closer.
While running after the flare, Yuma noticed that the number of monsters blocking her had significantly decreased.
‘There are far fewer monsters than before. In particular, I can’t see Salobe at all… It seems that the guy who controls those dog-like spiders is thinking about how to deal with me.’
Thanks to that, finding Chipen was much better than Kagor.
“Yuma!”
Arriving at the point where the flare was fired, Yuma was able to face Chippen right away. Chippenn was in great shape, but the injury was minor compared to Kagor.
“Chippen! Are you alone? What about the other members?”
“The members are waiting in the cave over there. I thought it would be safer to go out alone. Whoa! It’s the first sunlight I’ve seen in a few days. I saw the signal flare earlier. It was on the side where Kagor’s unit was, right?”
“All but about 20 of Kagor’s assault force were defeated.
Even that, it seems that Kagor himself barely managed to save us.”
“About 20… Ha, the wolves who died here can’t even be properly buried. Is Kagor himself all right?”
“There were no fatal injuries.”
“I never thought I’d have this kind of experience as a fucking mercenary.”
Chippen briefly explained the situation of his unit. His unit was lucky compared to Cagor’s.
Right after they were isolated, they were able to get out of sight of the monsters and dig a hole by the river and wait all the way. Coincidentally, it was an area where the borders of monsters were weak, and thanks to that, most of the troops survived.
Yuma followed Chipen into the hole where his unit was hiding.
“The boss’s friend is here!”
“Did you get stronger? Captain Marlon Dol will lament again.”
“I thought I was dead, but I’m alive again like this!”
Members in the cave cheered up and welcomed it. However, unlike the content that sounds light, everyone’s voice was completely rested.
Yuma sighed inwardly.
Deep down, he thought that the Black Wolves would be annihilated or suffered damage close to annihilation.
It was all the more so after seeing that less than 10% of Kagor’s assault force, which originally numbered slightly over 300, survived.
However, after confirming that Chippen’s assault force had survived this much, the feeling of having been hit by a rock eased a little.
If Chipen and Yugire, who were to be found in the future, were on par with Kagor, the Black Wolves’ strength would have suffered a loss of more than half.
“Let’s join first to the place where the stormtroopers of Cagor are located in the center. Normally, the fewer Cagors should join, but… they don’t have the strength to move.”
“I thought so too. What next?”
“We’re going to find Yugir Stormtrooper’s troops and break through the western road.”
“It’s a road that couldn’t be penetrated even with 40% of our Worgs, can it be possible alone?”
The members said it as if they couldn’t believe it.
It wasn’t a question ignoring Yuma. It was because, according to their common sense, it was impossible for a single human being to break through the siege of monsters of this size.
Except for the only two people in the world, Hugo and the King of Knights.
“If it hadn’t been possible, we would have brought in more reinforcements somehow. The Black Wolf Great is the people who mean so much to me. let’s go.”
Chipen sent a signal, and the rest of the members in the cave began to come out at once.
While hiding in the den, the members’ stamina was at a low point due to the lack of food, but the Black Wolf’s unique movements were still intact.
“Even if you encounter monsters along the way, do not change ranks or move. I’ll take care of it myself.”
“I believe you, Yuma.”
It took only 30 minutes to run alone with a speedboat, but it took more than 2 hours to move while escorting Chipen’s assault force.
Even that speed was possible because the members were tenaciously moving.
I was attacked three times while moving.
Twice against enemies made up of monsters and once against troops made up of possessors and demons.
However, the procession escorted by the grandmaster could not be tampered with with such things.
Even if the monsters or the possessed were not hordes of lower-middle-class demons, but enemies made up of dragons, the result would have been the same.
“A pillar of ice?”
“Suddenly, there is an ice wall… There are members in the bay!”
Chipen’s storm troopers, of course, thought that the survivors of the Ca Gor assault force would be hiding in a burrow like themselves.
However, I couldn’t help but be embarrassed to see that I was inside a pillar of ice rising in the middle of the battlefield out of nowhere.
“Did you do it? Yuma.”
“Yes, it is a barrier made with my ability. I’ll spread it wide, so please wait inside with Kagor.”
But a moment of admiration.
When Chippen and the members witnessed the survivors on the Cagor side, they were choked up for a moment and could not say anything.
Having lost close to 300 colleagues, even men like Lee Cheol can’t contain their grief.
When it was confirmed that there were no enemies nearby, Chipen’s stormtroopers hugged the survivors inside the ice wall and screamed in agony.
No one was crying, but Yuma was even more hurt by that.
Spreading the ice barrier wide, Yuma set off again.
Now, if you get Yugire’s unit back and get out of here, the rescue of the Black Wolves will be over.
‘No, it’s not completely over. I guess I’ll have to look at Hugo’s condition before returning to the Empire.’
Why the hell is that colossal human being tied to southern Matan and unable to move?
It was a problem that I couldn’t understand all the time before I came here. I could only guess that something was going on, but I couldn’t imagine anything specific.
I even asked Kagor and Chipen, but they also had no idea about Hugo’s situation.
In the first place, it was only natural that they were isolated after returning to headquarters after the war began.
“Yugir Stormtrooper! Fire a flare when I get close!”
last search.
Yuma screamed once more with all his might and started moving.
In the central area where Kagor and Chipen were located, flares were constantly being fired announcing the re-gathering.
The point where they expected Yugire’s assault force to be had already passed, but there was no new flare in sight.
Instead, after a while, what Yuma saw were traces of iron arrows stuck like spears all over the forest.
It was Yugir’s iron arrow.
When we stopped and checked the traces, we could find traces of weapons used by ordinary members in addition to iron arrows.
‘Currently, Yugire’s raid leader is fighting! I’m being chased!’
When I put my finger on the iron arrow that should have contained the aura, I felt the heat.
And Yuma was able to intuitively realize who the enemy was chasing after Yugir.
‘It’s clear that the demon who ran the cellove. It seems that fighting me has no chance of winning, and from then on, you’ve been aiming for Captain Yugire!’
It was for this reason that Yugir could not respond to Yuma’s voice and could not confirm the re-gathering signal fired from the center.
Examining the floor again, the outer skin of the broken shelobes had fallen off quite a bit.
Yuma closed her eyes for a moment and concentrated. It was to confirm the location where the battle was taking place through the senses of a superhuman.
‘Certainly the ground is rumbling more farther north. It’s a vibration only possible when large monsters gather in groups. The only thing worth doing in this siege is Cellov.’
Intuition was confirmed. Yuma stopped screaming and ran with all his might towards the north.
My senses remained sharp, but as time passed, I felt the vibration distinctly. However, as the vibration grew, the urgency gradually subsided.
The fact that the ground trembled continued meant that Yugir’s unit had not yet been captured by Selov.
If you’ve already defeated Yugire, there’s no need to move so quickly.
“Yugir!”
The Yugire finally found was exactly what Yuma thought it would be.
Standing alone at the rear of the unit, he was protecting the members by firing iron arrows.
The Selovs seemed unable to easily attack the ranks in front of them because of the iron arrows he fired.
