I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 244
◈ 244. [Free Exploration] Inner Checkpoint (3) A
huge werewolf with silver-red mane slowly stopped walking. It is only a few meters away from us.
“You really came to visit yourself, Wolf King.”
I spit out his name once more.
“Luna Red.”
《Ash.》
Lunared grinned as he chewed my name carefully from where he had picked it up.
《Did you dig into the dungeon here even though you knew I was coming?》
“I heard you were looking for our party?”
The werewolf was so tall that I had to lift my head up for a long time before I could see him.
The monster and I glared at each other as if we were having a snowball fight, exchanging conversations.
“Then we will eventually run into each other, but we can’t quit exploring and shut ourselves up because we’re scared, right?”
Anyway, I thought that one day I would encounter a corps commander level monster in this dungeon.
That’s why I wasn’t upset.
“From what I heard, I thought he was a pretty smart guy, but I guess he isn’t. Shortening my own lifeline.”
The werewolf raised his huge hand and snapped his joints.
“This Lake Kingdom is my hunting ground. Unlike in the outside world, you can use your full power. A few minutes is enough to slaughter all of you guys.》
“You know what? Two of your fellow corps commanders, who were just as confident as you, were slain by us.”
At the same time as I answered, Lucas and Evangeline came in front of me and raised their swords and shields.
Even in the face of the terrible deceit of the legendary monster, the two knights did not waver one inch.
It must be because he already has experience fighting with the Nightmare Corps commander.
Damian also calmly aimed his horse gun, and Belldandi also drew his dagger without being shaken, probably because he had already clashed with him.
“eww… kuh… .”
But Cuilan.
And all the members of the punishment unit under his command were frozen and unable to move.
I gave them a light joke to ease their tension.
“What is it, Kuylan? Are you okay?”
“no. Yes, of course I was nervous, but for a slightly different reason… … .”
Quylan placed a trembling hand on his chest.
“What is this feeling… ? Seeing that monster, why is my heart so… … .”
The red eyes of Lunared, who turned his gaze toward such Quylan and the punishment unit members, turned strange.
“Huh, somehow it smelled familiar… You are my descendants.》
“… ?”
Quylan and the punishment unit froze at the sudden sound.
Neither they nor I widened our eyes, not understanding what I had been told.
what?
“What nonsense are you talking about, you bastard… !”
Quylan spat out ferociously, and Lunared burst out laughing.
《The first wearbeast who swallowed the blood of an alien god in the distant past, discarded his humanity, and assimilated into a beast.》 The
werewolf’s silver-red fur-covered hand pointed at itself.
《I am one of the distant ancestors of you beast people.》
One of the first werewolves, the first werewolf.
The beast tribe, including Kuilan… … distant ancestors.
This werewolf was claiming that it was him.
“Stop talking nonsense, monster!”
Quilan, who roared, took a martial arts stance as if he would run away at any moment.
Red energy swelled like flames from the bandit king’s fists.
The swaying red energy seemed to be swirling around the maple leaves.
“There’s no way the blood of something terrible like you flows through my body… … !”
《That’s what you say, but isn’t your body feeling it?》
With a cruel sneer on his lips, Lunared slowly put his hands forward.
“We are the same people. I am your origin.”
Cheack!
The werewolf’s blade-like claws grew long, and a blood-red aura swept through them.
《I’ll prove it by taking your lives.》
Glow!
It was a bloody red color, different from the fiery red color of Kuilan, but… … Even as an outsider, the two looked alike.
Above all – posture.
Lunared was in the exact same fighting stance as Quylan’s.
“Nonsense… .”
A moment of despair crossed Quylan’s face.
“This law… It has been passed down from generation to generation in our clan… … .”
《The martial arts were established, the winding type was confirmed, and the breathing was refined. I am the master of everything you have learned.”
Not only the lineage, but everything Quylan has learned. that it came from himself. The monster spoke savagely.
Lunared’s silvery-red mane, which reflected the light from the torches hanging around it, shimmered like a flash of fire.
The color was surprisingly similar to Quylan’s red hair.
“… .”
Swallowing dry saliva, I thought.
I don’t know if that monster’s words are true or if it’s a lie to deceive our allies.
The monsters of the Lake Kingdom are beings revived by the Demon King.
In other words, beings who died a long time ago, hundreds of thousands of years ago… … it is revived
There is a good chance that the existence is the ‘ancestor’ of someone in the modern age.
Cuilan, who had been shaking his hard-bite molars, kicked off the ground and jumped forward.
“Shut up your mouth, you freak! I am… !”
“Quilan! no!”
There was no time for me to stop. Quylan charged forward faster than I had ever seen him.
Cuilan’s fists and feet, entwined in red aura, rushed at the monster.
His quick fists poured out dozens of attacks in the blink of an eye.
however.
《You’re a low number, you descendant!》
Lunared swung his fist just once and
exclaimed!
Hit the counter on Quylan’s belly.
Quylan couldn’t even scream and fell out in the opposite direction of the run, vomiting blood.
《Shallow Shallow! too shallow! Fists and intent to kill! There is nothing that is not lukewarm!”
The werewolf roared as he retrieved his sinewy, muscular arm.
“Our clan’s fighting style is only for the sake of struggle! A killing method to throw off human standards by any means and to slaughter the enemy like a beast!]
I rushed to Quillan, who was vomiting blood, and hurriedly helped him.
Lunared continued talking.
《I gave up being human and became a beast in order to complete that killing method. But what about you, descendant! Aren’t you still trapped in the frame of human beings! My legacy is a waste!
”
As I grinned, Lunared’s gaze shifted from Quylan to me. I continued
“So, if you’ve completed such an amazing killing method, you’ll be satisfied and calmly attain Buddhahood. Why are you doing this after being revived again?”
“complete? Satisfaction? What kind of stupid things are you talking about, human?”
Lunared laughed fiercely, puh haha.
“Is there an end to the struggle? Is there a pause in martial arts? It was a pity that I couldn’t fight more until the moment I died. They say they’re giving me one more chance, but of course I have to accept it!”
“Huh… .”
《If only I could fight someone stronger than me, if only I could bite his neck and taste his blood! If only I could prove I’m stronger! They are willing to sell their souls to the devil!”
“Looks like it. It looks like it’s already sold out.”
I thought martial arts was the concept, but this wolf seems to be sincere.
Lunared began to stride toward me who was babbling.
《Now then, now that we are done playing with my descendants for a while, let’s go back to our conversation.》
“No, you don’t have to go back… .”
《Guardian of people. Can you give me the right pleasure? If you were the one who killed Orlob and Selendion, would you be able to have a real struggle with me?”
To the werewolf, who looked at me with a look of anticipation. I answered clearly.
“no.”
《Huh?》
“You are not going to fight?”
I quickly took out a magic scroll from my bosom.
[Dungeon Escape Teleport Scroll].
Earlier, after the ambush of the vampire lord Selendion, Ader opened up two system functions for me.
One is a radar that can detect boss monsters. and the other one.
[Emergency Escape Bomb!] < Free Exploration Only >
– Forced stun is applied to nearby monsters and the movement speed of the player party is increased by 100%.
– When using the function, 1 ‘Dungeon Escape Teleport Scroll’
is consumed.
It’s a function that made me use it and jump out when I encounter an enemy I can’t handle in a dungeon. It’s worth 45000 achievement points.
‘I’m finally going to try this!’
I had no intention of fighting the nightmare corps commander in the dungeon in the first place.
of course. Why should we fight against us? Fighting them on their home ground is tantamount to committing suicide.
Why did I come to explore District 6 in such a dangerous situation where corps commander-level monsters searched for me inside the dungeon?
‘Because I have a means to escape!’
Without hesitation, I tore the scroll and used the [Emergency Escape Bomb!] feature.
Flash-!
《Kuh?! What!”
With a flash of light, Lunared staggered back, and I, who helped Quilan up, shouted to the party members.
“Run to the teleport gate! Retreat!”
“yes!”
The party members immediately started running to the safe base inside the resistance checkpoint.
I followed the party, almost dragging the staggering Kuylan. Lucas and Evangeline helped me.
Lunared, whose stun was finally released, roared.
“ash! Are you running away now?! Don’t you have the pride as a warrior to run away with enemies in front of you?!”
I nodded my head willingly.
“of course!”
“What… ?”
You sound like pride. Does your pride feed you?
My men’s lives are more important than that. There’s no reason to accept a quality fight.
“Let’s see! I’m retreating for now, but I’ll pay this grudge next time!”
Reached the teleport gate while spitting lines like a third-rate villain. I put the party members inside one by one.
In an instant, Lunared, who ran right outside the safe base, gnashed his teeth.
I smiled and glared at the werewolf.
“Stop being mean, secretly sending your subordinates and making surprise attacks on your home ground! If you like a real struggle, fight fair and square.”
《… .》
“Come to my castle wall. I’ll crush you with my crossfire, whether it’s your hundred-year-old old-fashioned killing method or nabal.”
Lunared snorted.
“Where are the deaths and blasphemy in the struggle? This world is strong self-esteem (强者存). The one who survives is the strong one.”
I agree with that statement.
So I will deal with you with all my might.
On a battlefield that favors me, in a way that favors me.
to survive in this hell.
“Let’s do our best to kill each other. werewolf.”
After flipping my middle finger up, I threw myself into the teleport gate.
Quylan, who had been glaring at Lunared until the end, and Lucas, who was supporting such Quylan, followed me into the gate.
The werewolf’s red eyes continued to stare at us.
It was a tenacious and greedy gaze, as if carving a mark on the prey.
Flash!
