Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell - Chapter 106
# 106
106
Hell had arrived at the Manhattan shelter built not far from Liberty Island.
Kekkeong-! Kk-!
Grr-!
A group of hyenas standing erect on two feet slowly approached the terrified people.
It is a grade 4 monster, Gnoll.
“Hehehehe….”
“Uh, Mom….”
Drop, drop.
People who saw bright red blood flowing from Nol’s iron ax were scared.
The surrounding area was full of corpses with their heads broken by axes and their limbs horribly mutilated.
< Code > These are the corpses of the clan.
“God, God….”
“Ah….”
“Instead of doing this, we should at least fight back….”
“Are you crazy?”
The people who were cornered by the gnolls were whispering.
The hunters guarding the shelter were exterminated without a single exception. If so, it is obvious who the ax blade will be aimed at this time.
“Get out of the way! Even though we are not the only awakened people, there are still so many people! “I can’t sit still and die!”
At that time, a man who was actively trying to overcome the current crisis ran towards the nol screaming.
The closest and smallest body. The man planned to kill this guy and take the iron axe.
But
keung-!
Kwasik-!
Gnoul, who flexibly jumped upwards and avoided the man’s charge, brought the ax down on the top of his head.
White blood mixed with it splashed out with a loud sound.
The man rolled his eyes and fell down on the spot, whimpering.
“Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!!!!
“Aaaahhh-!!”
The man’s miserable death broke the bond of reason that citizens were holding on to.
Citizens were distraught and entered a state of panic. It’s death. There was death before my eyes.
Giggling!
Seeing the struggling prey, the gnoll approached with a creepy smile.
A newborn child, who could not speak yet, was pushed by struggling adults and somehow managed to get out of the crowd.
“cash?! cash!! Ahhh!”
The girl’s mother, who discovered it too late, was almost astonished.
Soon, the shadow of a hyena appeared on the newborn’s tiny body.
The moment the gnoll flicked its tongue and raised the iron axe, and its mother let out a tearing scream.
Kwazizig-!!
The gnoll’s body flew through the air.
While maintaining the ugly smile he wore to commit slaughter.
“Ba~.”
The newborn child, who knew nothing about the world, blinked even though the monster was being cut in half right in front of him.
Pure, unspoiled eyes immediately caught a man in sight.
A white-haired hunter covered in red blood from head to toe.
“cash-!”
Everyone stopped breathing. Except for the mother of a newborn child.
She came running in a huff, hugged the child in her arms and sobbed.
blow.
With a single blow, the man in front of him killed the pack of hyenas that had taken over the shelter.
The mother, who was rubbing her child’s back and crying loudly, soon looked up and saw the man, Daesung.
“….”
Daesung’s face was silent as he stared at him in silence.
The statue-like face reminded her of a statue of a god at the church where she always attended services every weekend.
“Ahhh…!”
Tears with a different meaning than sadness or relief flowed down her cheeks.
She sobbed, bowing her head to the floor while holding the baby in her arms.
“Thank you…. Thank you so much…. Thank you….”
“….”
Daesung didn’t give any other answer.
Instead, I focused on the lingering feeling that had wrapped around my wrist as I had just blown away the gnoll.
‘Something is strange. It wasn’t just an ordinary gnoll.’
Doesn’t that make sense in the first place?
Gnolls are only level 4 monsters. To put it in an analogy, it is a little stronger than a goblin.
But the elite members of < Code >, a large clan recognized by the United States, are being attacked by those guys?
That was when I felt Daesung’s doubts.
Squeak-.
Kik-ik.
A sound like a mouse squeaking.
Everyone there, including Daesung, began to frown at the strangely unpleasant sound.
“hmm?”
at that time.
Daesung could see something small and dark red squeezing the gnoll’s body and pulling out the head of the tree.
Daesung wiggled his eyebrows.
“Specter?”
He immediately recalled the information he had found in the hunter’s guidebook.
Specter, with bright red skin and horns sprouting on top of his head, had the appearance of an easily recognizable Western monster.
“It was somehow heavy for a ball.”
Level 2 dangerous species Specter.
They attach themselves to each corpse in groups of dozens and take the host as their own.
Another monster born in this way becomes three or four times more powerful than it was when it was alive.
‘Did the Specter attach itself to the gnoll that < Code > killed outside the building?’
It is clear that in the end, they were pushed all the way inside the shelter and the situation got to this point.
While Daesung is trying to guess the situation.
Squeak!
Scream!
The Specters who faced Daesung, who slaughtered their hosts, jumped up and down in horror.
Eventually, they formed a group in a panic and escaped outside through the open window of the shelter.
Free from the laws of physics, their movements were as fast as the speed of sound.
“Where are you going to run away?”
Of course, that doesn’t mean we can’t just let him go. Even if you kill those guys, Orihalcon will still appear.
Hwareuk-.
It was at that time that Daesung, who had repaired the Fire Flower Greatsword, was about to leave the shelter after the Specters.
“uh?”
“Huh?”
Some people started to look surprised.
However, it would be absurd not to be surprised when you see the scene unfolding just now.
Liberty Island is hundreds of meters away across the river.
A symbol of independence and the United States stands there, holding a torch in his right hand and the Declaration of Independence in his left.
Right at the ‘Statue of Liberty’.
Squeak!
Geek-!
Aren’t all the Specters sticking together in such a way that it looks like a black cloud when viewed from a distance?
“No way…”
someone muttered so vaguely.
A horde of Specters gathered around the seven-horned crown.
And
kugugu-.
“omg…!”
It moved.
The Statue of Liberty, which was fixed on a stone pedestal, slowly walked forward starting with her right leg.
“Oh no, how could that be….”
“How could that be!”
“Does that make sense?!”
Citizens who saw the Statue of Liberty come to life opened their mouths so wide that their jaws dropped.
Even though it wasn’t as much as them, Daesung couldn’t hide the surprise on his face.
‘Were the Specters capable of doing something like that?’
According to the encyclopedia, Specters live only on dead remains.
However, regardless of whether it is alive or dead, I have never heard of someone using an inanimate statue as a host.
This means only one thing.
‘I guess the information in the encyclopedia is wrong. Is there anything wrong?’
There is no time to think deeply.
Does it matter whether they stick to microorganisms or inanimate objects?
‘Just destroy it and that’s it.’
Daesung summoned the annihilating dragon that he had briefly put away.
The wild flames emitted by the Seal of Embodiment caused the dragon to descend on this place.
thud-!
Crrr-.
People were mesmerized by the size of the annihilator dragon, which was so large that even though it was the size of a drake, it filled a large shelter.
“It’s de Dragon.”
“The guy who kicked out the Federation spokesperson and the US military not long ago…”
“Oh my god.”
People who watched the live broadcast clearly remembered the majesty of the annihilating dragon that filled the camera screen.
Just as Moses parted the Red Sea, people stood aside around the annihilating dragon.
Swish.
Daeseong, who easily jumped and rode on the neck of the annihilator dragon, gave a brief command.
“let’s go.”
Koooooo-!!
With a ferocious roar, the annihilating dragon spread its wings wide.
Qua-ang!
It hit the wall of the shelter like that. The annihilating dragon soared through the shattered wall and headed toward Liberty Island.
People who had retreated to the corner gathered around the collapsed wall that let in the cold outside air.
And
someone was scared.
Some people were purely amazed.
Someone put their hands on their chest and prayed earnestly.
Flying towards the Statue of God, which went from being a symbol of freedom to now a disaster.
“Please…”
Looking at the white savior riding the dragon.
***
While the annihilating dragon and the Statue of Liberty were quickly closing the distance.
Daeseong tapped the annihilating dragon’s head and said.
“Let’s finish it quickly.”
There isn’t much time to devote to things like statues.
Currently, the amount of Orihalcon in stock has already exceeded 10,000. Perhaps, if we remove that goddess statue and eradicate the Specter, close to thousands of additional Orihalcones will arrive.
[Polymorph: Flying Dragon is cancelled.]
[< Handaeseong Annihilator Dragon > reveals its original form.]
With the appearance of the system message, a black air current surrounded the Annihilator Dragon.
Hung-!
The annihilating dragon that soon tore through the airflow and jumped out was at least one head larger than the statue of the goddess.
The moment when the Statue of Liberty plunges into the Hudson River and rushes through the rough current.
Qua-ang!
The dragon and the goddess statue clashed.
Just by hitting it, the river water turned into waves and spilled everywhere. The intense waves that pierced the air were enough to shake the shelter hundreds of meters away.
The claws of the annihilating dragon, as sharp as a blade, slashed at the face of the goddess statue.
Kagagak-!
Although the surface became dozens of times more solid under the influence of the Specter, the face of the Goddess Statue was gnawed mercilessly.
But no matter how broken the face is, the goddess statue is ultimately inanimate.
The goddess statue brandished the torch in her right hand with more than half of her head missing.
puck-!
The blunt blow pierced the annihilator dragon’s black scales.
The annihilation dragon slightly flinched from the shock as if a passenger plane had crashed right next to it.
But that’s it.
The attack just now was just enough to make the Exterminator Dragon’s side tingle.
Ooooh-!
Rather, it only made the annihilating dragon more angry. The nervous annihilation dragon raised its head and howled violently.
“Squash. “Film him like this and kill him.”
Daeseong calmly comforted the annihilating dragon that had lost its temper and gave instructions.
The annihilating dragon, whose eyes had regained focus, heard those words and this time struck the goddess statue’s shoulder with its left forepaw.
bang-!
Did the elevator inside the Goddess Statue explode? Suddenly, smoke mixed with fire rose from the statue of the goddess, whose upper part of the clavicle was torn off.
The shattered remains of the internal features bounced off the cut surfaces of the statue and fell into the Hudson River.
In the aftermath of the fight, a high current of water became a tsunami and engulfed Liberty Island.
“Huh….”
“….”
Those in the shelter were distracted by a fight that was beyond human common sense.
Everyone held their breath in silence at the huge and majestic battle that seemed to embody the end of the world.
Koooooo-!!
The annihilating dragon faithfully carried out Daeseong’s orders to crush and kill it.
The guy was as big as Taisan and crushed the statue of the goddess with so much weight.
bang-! bang-! bang-!
Even as the statue was falling backwards, it struck the Declaration of Independence in its left hand onto the annihilating dragon’s back.
‘It’s too much of a bother.’
And all attacks aimed at the annihilating dragon’s back are bound to directly affect Daeseong.
Daeseong glanced at the deafening roar and repeated strikes of the Declaration of Independence as if they were hitting him in all directions, as if he were displeased.
In the end, Daesung could no longer bear it and threw a fist filled with magical power at the Declaration of Independence falling directly from above his head.
Kwa-ang!
A small fist clashed with a large declaration.
Circular waves scattered throughout the area, causing the water to churn once more.
Then, this time, the water surface turned over to the point where the bottom of the Hudson River was visible.
Jeok-.
And at the end of that fierce clash, the first to fall was the Declaration of Independence.
The remains of the Declaration of Independence, crushed like pebbles, fell patter onto the annihilator’s back.
Ooooh-!!
The moment when the annihilating dragon gains even more power, perhaps influenced by its master’s fierceness.
with a splash-!
The statue of the goddess fell completely backwards, unable to be overcome by the force of the annihilating dragon pressing down with its center of gravity from the front.
The symbol of America sank like that.
bang-! bang-! bang-!
Without stopping there, the annihilating dragon mercilessly swung its front paw repeatedly and struck the goddess statue.
Each time a blow struck the statue, the copper plate surrounding its surface was dented and even the steel frame inside was torn apart.
Squeak-!
The Specters were embarrassed.
If they continue like this, everything, even the parts where they live as parasites, will be destroyed.
If we don’t somehow kill that dragon before then!
Squeak-!
Feeling a dizzying sense of crisis, the group of Specters injected even more power into the body of the goddess statue, and
it splashed! Shoot ah-.
The statue of the goddess, who had been beaten, powerfully pushed away the annihilating dragon and stood up.
The statue of the Goddess, which appeared again on the surface of the water, had only its lower body intact, with only a bone-like steel frame remaining in its upper body.
The annihilating dragon backed away slightly.
The goddess statue rushed that distance.
And
a ‘sailboat’ larger than the annihilating dragon attacked the goddess statue.
Kuuuuung-!!
If an annihilating dragon headbutts its body with all its might, would it produce this much power?
The statue, which was on the verge of collapsing with only the steel frame and lower body remaining, was no longer able to remain after the impact of the sailing ship.
The goddess statue, which was completely destroyed except for its ankles, was buried in small fragments.
‘It’s worth focusing on.’
Daeseong was satisfied to see ‘Bork the Boatman’ bowing towards his lord on the deck of a medieval sailing ship.
While the Goddess Statue was submerged in water and struggling, a black full moon was already rising in the night sky of New York.
Daeseong spread the unique barrier of ‘Ghost King’s Territory’ only on the Hudson River.
Just like the Han River, where the Kraken appeared not long ago, the Hudson River has now been mixed with the ‘River of the Dead’, creating a deep blood color.
and.
[The raft of ‘Bork the Boatman’, who protects the ‘River of the Dead’, changes its appearance to match the status of the absolute!] [< Bork's Raft > is significantly upgraded to < Ghost Ship of the Han Dynasty >!]
‘The annihilation of Balark Just as ‘Dragon’ was changed to ‘Han Daeseong’s annihilating dragon’.
Even the tiny ‘Bork’s Raft’ has now become Daesung’s exclusive possession, taking on an appearance befitting its owner.
Ghost ship.
That expression was so accurate.
It flies in the sky, not the sea, and its entire hull is decorated with gloomy decorations, which is because there are no ghosts.
Sigh-!!
At that time, a group of Specters, whose host goddess statue was destroyed, tried to run away.
Daeseong jumped up from the annihilating dragon’s back and loaded flames into his fireworks greatsword.
Grumble-!
“I won’t miss it twice.”
Then, he stretched the blade forward and applied force to his wrist as if pulling the trigger of a machine gun.
[The second special skill of ‘Fire’ mode is activated.]
[Special skill: < Breath of the Flame King >]
Fire-Ack!!
Rays of fireworks shot out, turning the pitch-black night sky reddish.
The moment the group of Specters glanced back as they felt the heat, it was all over.
They perished like moths caught in a torch without any regrets.
-sparkle.
Orihalcon, which fell like a shower beneath the burning Specter, crumbled before it even fell into the river.
[Orihalcon that has passed the ‘discovery’ stage moves to the ‘save’ stage.]
[Current Orihalcon possession: 16891] There
is not much left until it catches up with the estimated number of monsters that appear at 25,000.
The time has come to reap the beauty of the end.
‘I have work to do before that, though.’
After checking the current reserves, Daeseong led the annihilation dragon and approached the ghost ship.
Then he gave an order to the hunchbacked beast ‘Boatman Bork’ standing on the deck.
“You go and load the people into the boat. “So that only monsters remain on the streets.”
“All right.”
Kugugu-.
The ghost ship that was hovering in the air slowly passed through the Hudson River and entered downtown Manhattan.
“Uh oh! “I’m getting closer and closer to this side?”
“Seeing as you haven’t killed the Sa Hunter, do you think he’s on our side?”
“What is that moon? Why is the river water that color?”
People in the shelter began to panic as a ghost ship larger than most high-rise buildings slowly approached.
Soon, a ghost ship stopped in front of a shelter building with an open wall on one side.
The moment when people react in confusion.
Damn!
“Hi!?”
Suddenly, a chain extended from the bow of the ghost ship and struck the surface of the building with a loud thud.
It was a chain, but it was as wide as an ordinary bridge.
Bork pointed to the chains and said to the people:
Briefly.
“get on.”
Originally a ship that guided the dead.
Now was the moment to guide the living.
