I Stole the Number One Ranker’s Soul - Chapter 179
Episode 180:
At the place I arrived at with my heavy body, an orchid-like flower was waving its stems, scattering seeds in the air.
As a rule of thumb, the plants were over 20 meters tall, so I felt like I was looking at avant-garde art.
“Wow, it’s like Frankenstein created by some kind of retarded environmental activist. Wow, these guys are destroying the environment. I will kill them all in the name of plants. Doesn’t it fit perfectly?”
While everyone was staring at the boss monster with tired eyes, Ban Seo-jin, who was finally able to rest, made a light joke.
As I gained some stamina, it seemed like I had the energy to move my tongue.
“I’d like to spray some herbicide or something.”
“Sister, I tried using poison, but it didn’t work…”
When Son Mo-ah, who had no energy to take the joke, responded with a bored expression, Yoo Eun-dam responded in a sullen voice.
“Uhm. What about physical attacks?”
“I tried freezing it, but it wasn’t that good…”
Son Moa nodded.
In the first place, Yu Ndam’s strength was not due to physical attack power, but to the special characteristic of cold.
If we talk about destructive power, it is nothing compared to himself or Seo Ji-han.
“are you okay. That’s why we came. “What about Mr. Ban Seo-hoo?”
“They’re blocking it from the front over there.”
This time, Seohu Ban was faithfully carrying out the duties of a defense hunter.
Son Mo-ah, who confirmed his location, gathered his magic power and prepared the Chungwang Cannon.
And when I thought it had enough power, I cast the skill.
Perhaps because he had been conserving his magic power in preparation for the battle ahead, the Chungwang Cannon was about one-tenth smaller than usual.
However, the penetrating power remained intact.
The Chungwangpo flew towards the monster’s head, a dark red flower, and pierced the monster.
Even before the monster’s head, which had a clean hole in it, Son Mo-ah’s expression was not very bright.
“…It doesn’t work.”
From the destroyed cross section, fern-like stems stretched out in twists and turns.
And they became entangled among themselves and perfectly regenerated the injured part.
As expected, the power was too low.
However, if you use up all of your magical power left, you will be completely unprepared for what comes next.
As Son Mo-ah began chewing her lip out of nervousness, Seo Ji-han stretched out his hand.
“I’m going to bleed.”
“ah.”
Seo Ji-han carefully brushed Son Mo-ah’s red lips and checked his thumb.
“Yes, fortunately there is no bleeding. Then I’ll come back this time. “I still have a lot of energy.”
Seo Ji-han, who spoke confidently, threw himself into the air.
Son Mo-a realized that contrary to what he said, he had almost reached his limit.
If he was really full of energy, he would have attacked by firing dark energy from a distance instead of throwing his body away.
And as if to prove that his words were a bluff, Seo Ji-han’s scythe, which was swung wide, could not even penetrate halfway into the monster’s body.
The black energy that would normally have encroached on the cut part was also minimal.
In the end, just like Son Mo-ah’s Chungwangpo, the wounds inflicted by Seo Ji-han’s attack also quickly regenerated.
“I thought it was easy because it looked funny, but it’s trickier than I thought.”
Ban Seo-jin spoke in a light voice on purpose, as if trying to hide his nervousness.
“Iknow, right. Still, there is a way. When Eundam and Seo Ji-han attack, freeze the part that plays. “The wider you can freeze it, the better.”
“Oh, sister, but that thing regenerates even if it’s frozen…”
“It’s okay. Mr. Ban Seo-jin, if I attack you, please separate all their fragments.”
As soon as Son Mo-ah finished speaking, Seo Ji-han’s powerful slash cut the monster’s body in half.
But before the body could be separated, stems began to extend from the top and bottom and come together.
“Eundam, now!”
“yes!”
To be honest, Yu Eun-dam felt like dying right now.
All of his magical power had already been depleted a few hours ago, and his addiction to potions had worsened, so his physical condition was not that bad. The
only thing he was holding on to right now was his pride. Even if he
died, that anti-seohu old man I won’t fall down before
you. And I won’t give Ji-han another reason to call me a weakling.
Coincidentally, Ban Seo-hu was also similar.
If he gets tired first and gives up, Yoo Eun-dam will say things like, ‘Shouldn’t you retire?’ or ‘You’re old too. ‘It was dizzying just to think of how much he would be scolded by the same words.
It seemed like it was nothing new for Seo Ji-han to be made fun of because of his age.
Yu Eundam’s skill, which was implemented by squeezing in his pride and magic power, enveloped the monster.
Bane with a cool chill . The part quickly froze.
Seo Ji-han, who almost got caught up in the frost, pulled away in surprise, but a beam of pure white light flew past him just in the nick of time. It
was Chungwangpo.
The frozen wound shattered and the monster was split in two.
But that wasn’t the end.
The pieces of his battered body began to come together in an attempt to survive. To make matters worse, he was struggling,
spouting poison and frantically swinging the stem that had not yet frozen. The
wind generated by the stem was blowing away Sonmoa’s hair. “The desire to survive is
enormous? It’s almost like being born between sidewalk blocks.”
Ban Seo-jin said something that was unclear whether it was a mockery or a joke, and stretched out his hand and pretended to gently break something away. Following the gesture, the
pieces of the monster that had gathered were scattered again.
Yoo Eun-dam brought his hands together to the monster whose upper and lower body were separated. The attack continued.
If it continued like this, the monster’s death seemed certain.
However, no matter how many times I attacked, the monster’s writhing tissue continued to regenerate. I swung my
scythe with the intention of crushing the monster even to the point where it was worse. But the results were disappointing.
“How long do I have to keep doing this? I’m having a hard time…”
“Don’t be weak, man, and try harder.”
Instead of Son Mo-ah, who was gritting his teeth, Ban Seo-jin answered.
However, her face was also wet with sweat.
In the end, even Son Moa stopped firing the Chungwangpo.
Although Seo Ji-han was constantly moving, he was so exhausted that he could be seen panting even from afar.
In the meantime, the monster started to piece together small pieces and gradually began to be restored into a larger lump, shaking off Ban Seo-jin’s telekinesis.
It can’t go on like this.
Feeling pressured, Son Mo-ah took out a Class A magic recovery potion from her inventory.
If you use too many potions in a short period of time, you will get ‘Status Abnormality: Potion Poisoning’.
Poisoning causes the effectiveness of the potion to be greatly reduced.
‘Status abnormality: Potion poisoning’: Duration: 24 hours 00 minutes The
depleted magical power was replenished with a shock that felt as if the entire body was pulsating loudly.
Son Moa’s eyes burned bright blue and a huge amount of magical power condensed.
A powerful pillar of light that made the Chungwang Cannons fired so far look like a joke, wiped out the struggling monsters.
“Huh…”
With a heavy breath, red blood drops fell to the floor.
Son Mo-a’s nose and lips instantly turned bright red.
Suppressing the feeling of nausea, Son Mo-a barely managed to stand on her knees.
That’s what she looked like . Seo Ji-han ran as if he was flying and grabbed Son Mo-ah’s shoulder.
“Moa! Moa, this is…”
Seo Ji-han’s lips trembled.
He bent his back and lowered himself almost to his knees in front of Son Moa, who was breathing heavily. He took off his coat and hastily wiped away the nosebleed with a clean part.
“Let’s stop now. huh? “Please let’s stop.”
Seo Ji-han’s eyes were filled with tears as he looked up at Son Mo-ah.
Seeing him trying to fight even though his front chest was soaked in blood and staggering around, I felt like he was going crazy.
Although he respected his will and continued to endure, Seo Ji-han’s patience had now almost reached its limit.
“I guess so.”
Son Mo-ah’s answer had no strength at all, like the sound of the wind being knocked out.
However, because his request was answered positively for the first time, Seo Ji-han felt joy mixed with relief even though his heart was heartbroken.
Physical strength, magical power, and mental strength are now at their limits.
I feel sorry for others, but Son Mo-ah felt that she couldn’t do this anymore.
“Yes, other hunters can solve the problem on the outskirts. And the military also seems to be slowly moving.”
Eundam Yoo quietly intervened and pointed in one direction.
Cutting through the morning fog, an armored unit that looked like a tank could be seen moving.
“army?”
Son Moa narrowed her eyes after checking the direction Yoo Eundam was pointing.
Looking at the direction of movement, it is towards Seoul. It seemed like they were probably going to pass by.
“You won’t be able to enter because of the sanctuary barrier, so I’ll have to give you permission to enter when you get close.”
“Okay, just give it to me and rest. huh? Are you taking a break? yes?”
Son Mo-ah slowly nodded, looking at Seo Ji-han who was eagerly waiting for his answer.
However, as the distance between me and the cavalry got shorter, I began to feel something strange.
“Either my eyes are wrong, or that tank or something is jumping around like a grasshopper, right?”
Eundam Yoo opened his mouth as if he was anxious.
“It could be a new weapon.”
Feeling similarly ominous, Son Mo-ah struggled to answer.
However, Ban Seo-hu returned soon after and shook his head briefly with a stern expression on his face.
“I don’t think so. “At least it’s not our country’s weapon.”
Finally, with less than 20 meters left, they had no choice but to admit.
Those jumping machines seem to be monsters.
“I’m going to be amazed. Hey, Mother Nature’s Counterattack has ended. Next time, the Machines’ Rebellion episode will be shown. Is it like this? “That’s a real monster, right?”
Ban Seo-jin muttered, even laughing, as if he was half-fazed.
There was no need for an answer.
If that thing that flashes bright red lights, makes all kinds of grotesque designs, and spreads its murderous spirit around is not a monster, then what is it?
“A rock can become a monster, but there can also be machine monsters…”
Son Mo-ah said hesitantly.
By the way, is that also life? So are they taking refuge here from a world where only machines live?
Honestly ? I really couldn’t understand it, but I forced myself to believe that there could be a world like that.
“But since it’s not a boss monster but a normal monster, I think you can go in and get some rest. We’ll take care of that with support from other hunters. …”
Yoo Eundam’s voice, which had been lightly continuing, suddenly stopped.
The monsters that dared to get close without fear suddenly lined up and stopped in place.
And then something absurd happened.
“…Why are you combining?”
Ban Seo-jin’s voice rang hollow as if he was truly dumbfounded.
