Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell - Chapter 59
# 59
059
After a brief interview that was not very nutritious.
Over thirty hunters, including Daesung, rushed into the gate.
“The field composition is good.”
“Except it’s a little hot.”
“Do you remember the jungle that appeared during the last attack? “At that time, I really almost fell.”
As soon as they crossed the gate, they saw the unfolding field and each of the elite members of < Kite > expressed their impressions.
It was a rocky area filled with red fossils spread over a field where the sunset was low.
The field was no different from the actual environment on Earth, except that the ground was uneven and not suitable for long marches.
The crew moved forward, chatting a few words with each other
.
Jerk-
But.
「….」
The chat couldn’t continue for long and soon everyone remained silent.
Currently, the gate they entered is of the normal type.
It’s not a variant.
Originally, it would have been normal for monsters to appear within 5 minutes of entering.
“It’s so quiet…”
“Damn. “Usually in movies, if it’s quiet like this, something happens sooner or later.”
“Isn’t something strange suddenly popping out like this?”
The saying that no news is good news is not commonly used, at least not inside the gate.
Those here are also talented people who were selected to conquer the second-grade gate.
At least he was a son who knew how to be suspicious and wary of the endless silence.
of course.
‘Weird.’
The same goes for Daesung.
Rather, he immediately figured out the cause of this silence and slowly raised his head to look upward.
Dense, reddish-yellow clouds that seemed to cover the entire sky.
‘Anomaly’ lurks beyond.
“I don’t understand. “What on earth can come out in such an open place?”
On the other hand, Oh Beom-seok and the crew of < Kite > began to feel uneasy about this long silence.
Oh Beom-seok, who was at the front along with Dae-seong, was the first to expand his spirit, but there was still no sign of the enemy.
at that time.
Tuk-
“…Huh?”
A drop of water fell at Oh Beom-seok’s feet and wet the ground.
A drop of water fell on this dry place that seemed to have been in a drought for at least three years?
Oh Beom-seok, feeling puzzled, narrowed his eyes and looked at the floor where water droplets had just fallen.
and.
Chiik-
“Wow…!”
He let out an expression of astonishment as he realized that the ground was corroding, emitting steam as if he had touched acid.
“Ahhhh-”
“What is this…! “Aaaah-”
At the same time, a scream erupted from the rear.
And that from the mouths of many people, not just one.
Patter…
patter-patter-
With that scream as the starting point, the water droplets that had been falling intermittently suddenly fell at the same speed as a drizzle.
“damage!”
“Spread out! Spread out! There is no way to stop it! “Everyone, take care of your own safety!”
“No, gather together and build layers of Auror barriers! “It’s better that way!”
“But I don’t think this is rain?”
It wasn’t difficult to realize that the pouring raindrops, which soon turned into heavy rain, were green, not transparent and colorless.
It was green, like the bodily fluids of some animal.
In any case, unless you were a martial arts protagonist who had mastered martial arts to the extreme, there was no way to avoid the helplessly pouring strong acid.
It would have been better if a monster appeared. The members of < Kite >, caught up in an unexpected natural disaster, were distraught and fell into a state of panic.
“Uh oh! “Ugh-”
That was the same for Oh Beom-seok, the engineering team leader who was supposed to stand at the front and lead the crew.
Chiik – Chiik –
There are many monsters that spit out acidic liquid or extreme poison.
He also wore high-quality A-grade armor made with the assumption that he might encounter such guys.
“rock! “There are a lot of rocks nearby, so everyone take refuge there!”
“Even the rocks are melting!”
“If we keep going like this, we’ll all die!”
Nevertheless, it was still difficult to completely block the acid rain that poured down in series rather than in single bursts.
Chiik –
‘Yes, it’s not rain.’
As the skin oxidizes, the flesh melts, and the fierce, violent pain unfolds as the frenzy unfolds.
Only Daesung, who was equally hit by a strong acid shower, was observing the current situation with a calm expression.
[Implements the ‘Armor of the Annihilation Dragon Knight Valark’.]
Before I knew it, I was wearing black iron armor made of dragon skin.
It was a scene that could be created thanks to the unique performance of < Balark's Armor >, which increases defense by an additional 40% from attacks of all attributes, and the resilience of Daesung’s body.
‘That crazy guy! Where did you get that from…?’
Meanwhile, Oh Beom-seok, who was running wild in all directions to try to get even one drop less, was shocked when he saw Dae-seong wearing armor.
It was a time when I couldn’t decide whether the only person who could maintain composure in this chaos was because he was amazing or because his equipment was excellent.
Kiaaaagh-!
“…?!”
Oh Beom-seok’s gaze, which had been stuck on Daesung like a nail, shot up to the sky where the screams erupted.
And he couldn’t believe his eyes.
Through the clouds pouring out green bodily fluids, insects the size of people were gliding, flapping their wings.
Level 2 dangerous flying type.
Giger.
Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrva!
Kaaaaagh-!
There were so many of them that the group of them looked like a black fog from this side.
“Rangers-”
Oh Beom-seok miraculously gave instructions in a crisis situation that was adding insult to injury.
Ranger.
They were mainly located in the rear and provided long-distance support fire.
“What are you doing, you bastards! Don’t shoot quickly! “It’s coming!”
“Kwaaaaak-!”
However, even though they were supporting fire, it was urgent to survive the baptism of the acid.
In other words, they are soldiers who are unable to calmly follow instructions and move.
At that time, Oh Beom-seok’s pupils felt earthquake after seeing the crew members who had been reduced to scarecrows in an instant.
Flap-
“Huh?”
As the wind blowing vaguely from the side blew through his hair, Oh Beom-seok inadvertently turned his head in that direction.
There.
“No, you…”
Daesung was spreading his dragon wings wide behind his armored back.
It was the moment when ‘Flight’, the special skill of < Balark’s Armor >, was activated.
At that time, Oh Beom-seok opened his eyes wide as if to say, ‘Are you really going to do this?’
Grasping –
Daeseong stepped forward as if pushing back the earth melting in acid.
And his new model flew into the sky like a cannonball that had just left the gun barrel.
In his hands.
[Implementing the ‘flame greatsword’.]
A great sword
of blazing flame was held in his hand, regardless of the heavy rain of Gangsan Mountain.
Kiaaaagh-!
The Gigers, who were just about to go down to the ground and enjoy the devastation, looked slightly embarrassed when they saw a human with wings flying towards them.
But this side is many and that side is one.
Common sense tells us that there was no need to be afraid as long as they had a numerical strength that could not be overturned.
Kaaaaagh-!
A black storm made up of gigantic creatures swirled around indiscriminately and fell in the direction where Daesung was.
“Uh uhh… that one! “That guy was crazy because he wanted to die…!”
And Daesung did not slow down even in the face of the storm.
On the contrary, as he watched Daesung soaring at accelerating speed, Oh Beom-seok said, ‘Uh-huh.’ The moment I was making that sound.
Daeseong
stretched out both arms upward and raised the Fire Flower Greatsword above the top of his head.
[The second special skill of the ‘Incendiary’ mode is activated.]
[Special skill: < Breath of the Flame King >]
A message visible only to Daesung.
However, the ‘phenomenon’ that was revealed after the message passed was clearly visible to Oh Beom-seok and those below him.
Hwaaaaaaaaaaa!
A stream of flames with the power to burn even Mount Tai spewed out from the tip of the blade of the Fire Fire Greatsword aimed at Giger’s army.
Grumbling!
Kiaaaagh-!
The torrent of flames that shot up from the ground and
stayed in the sky burned down the black fog that fell through the clouds to the ground.
As if taking it away.
“….”
The sight of black and red intertwining and even thick clouds evaporating was like the end of the century.
The < Kite > crew, including Oh Beom-seok, were completely entranced.
It’s an imminent situation where each person hides under a building or eaves for cover and avoids the torrential downpour.
However, that sense of crisis turned into a feeling of ‘awe’ in front of a mass of enormous power that could not be dared to be approached.
Patter, plop,
charcoal remains of the creatures fell to the ground and rolled around.
“…I’m crazy.”
“It’s on a completely different level, damn it.”
It was like a pest killed by insecticide.
It was a level 2 dangerous monster.
at that time.
Flap –
Daesung, who had cleared away all of the fog from the giants, did not stop there, but spread his wings straight and flew higher.
Soon, his large body was sucked into the yellow sky, where all the clouds had evaporated and cleared up.
One of the members of < Kite >, who was still growing before his eyes as he had completely defeated the monsters to an inhuman level, trembled and thought.
“Was S-class originally like that…?”
***
Even though I flew through the point where the clouds were and flew to a higher place,
the
heavy rain was still pouring down in the same way.
This was not a heavy rain to begin with, so it was natural.
The epicenter was different.
“I said I felt something large above me, and it turned out to be you.”
In the middle of the sky, so high that it almost touches the atmosphere.
Goooooooo –
A huge whale was floating.
Of course, it was a monster, and it was different from an ordinary mammalian creature, a whale.
It was an insect with an exoskeleton made of a black carapace and a head with long, wriggling antennae that looked exactly like Giger’s.
Grade 2 special dangerous species, named, scattering type, flying type.
Giger queen.
Pooh-ooh –
A green fountain soared from the guy’s back as he went up and down steeply and fell down.
“That was the cause.”
It was the culprit of the rain of death that fell from the sky.
It doesn’t matter since it can’t do any effective damage to Daesung anyway.
but.
Huh-huh-huh-huh-
numerous boils were clinging to the lower part of Queen Giger’s wide stomach and writhing.
Daesung frowned and narrowed his gaze at the unpleasant and disgusting sight.
I quickly realized that it was not a boil, but some kind of ‘egg’.
Inside the translucent amniotic sac, the black insect fetuses appeared whitish.
It was clear that the egg had hatched and a large army of the same Giger had just poured out.
‘Rather than fighting him by exploding all those eggs-’
Daesung’s eyes flashed sharply even as he was being showered with acidic bodily fluids that poured incessantly.
Among the disgusting, writhing eggs that were stuck together, a particularly large lump lined with red blood was pulsing with a force that could be felt all the way.
‘It would be better to burn it all at once…’
And from anyone’s guess, the identity of that mass was the heart.
Flap –
Daesung spread his wings wide and tried to rush straight towards that heart.
Pub-bub-bub-bubb-
The eggs on Queen Giger’s stomach exploded all at once, pouring out amniotic fluid full of odor.
Kiaaaagh-!
And the Gigers that hatched from the burst eggs fell out of the queen’s body and rushed towards Daeseong.
In terms of scale alone, it seemed to be twice as many as the ones I first encountered earlier.
Worst of all, the black shadow created by their large army would be enough to dye the sunset-colored clouds pitch black.
but.
‘Does not matter.’
Even if 10 times, or even a million, soldiers come rushing in, in the end they are nothing more than insects.
On the contrary, Daeseong felt grateful that they were gathered together and not scattered in disarray.
‘Just burn it all at once and that’s it.’
Rumbling –
King Yeom’s thoughts in the sword also increased its firepower as if burning the fighting spirit.
The real goal isn’t to burn that bunch of bugs.
Beyond that group of bugs, even their mother, Queen Giger.
Daesung’s real goal was to burn down the entire sky.
Kiaaaagh-!
A black wave made up of gigantic soldiers poured towards Daeseong.
[The first special skill of ‘Incendiary’ mode is activated.]
[Special skill: < Rage >]
Not knowing that the firestorm of apocalypse will soon strike them.
***
A moment later.
“Ugh…. Ugh…!”
The members of < Kite >, who were hiding themselves in any geographical feature that could cover the top of their heads, took a deep breath.
This is because the sound of the rain of death hitting the dirt floor has completely subsided and silence has come.
“Has it stopped?”
“No, bastard. Don’t stick your head out. “Then suddenly it falls again.”
“Do you think it’s really stopped?”
The gate is a place where hunters take advantage of this moment of inattention and repeatedly hit the hunter in the back of the head.
Even more so if it is not level 3 or 4 but level 2.
at that time.
“uh!”
“Why is it like that!”
Suddenly, those who looked up at the sky with frightened faces let out a cry of astonishment.
Kugugu –
With a faint roar like an echo, the bright red clouds were now burning brightly.
“Fuck! “What is that again?”
“Everyone, don’t stick your heads out of cover! Something bigger is coming!”
“Prepare for combat-”
The members of < Kite > were in panic as something strange occurred in the sky, as if a meteorite was about to fall at any moment.
However, no matter how much time passed, the follow-up events they feared did not occur.
Although the shape of the clouds was still somewhat strange.
“….”
Now that I think about it.
What happened to Daesung, who spread his dragon wings and disappeared into the sky?
Does the change in the sky have anything to do with it?
By the time everyone was silent and thinking about such questions.
Evil-
“…Huh?”
Something fell through the clouds filled with sparks.
Unlike the heavy rain that had just occurred, what is the identity of the thing that falls gracefully and gently like a feather?
“…re?”
It was black ash.
No matter who sees it.
One might have wondered, ‘Suddenly?’
However, for some reason, the placenta present noticed the identity of the ashes.
It’s no different, because earlier, when Daesung first swept away the Giger group, ashes similar to this had fallen.
“….”
Oh Beom-seok and other members of < Kite > carefully escaped from cover and looked at the sky with their backs straightened.
Black ash scattered across the red world sparkling at dawn. Everyone in the room
froze in silence,
unable to keep their mouths shut at the surreal spectacle that could never be seen except in another world.
