Insanely-Talented Player - Chapter 54
Episode 54
1940 AD: Imperial United States under Nazi rule. Dallas, North Texas.
The dawn was rising over the eastern sky. Lieutenant General Kilgore said, taking out a Cuban cigar from his pocket and putting it in his mouth.
“I like the smell of napalm in the morning.”
“Oh, is that so?”
“The smell of gasoline wafting from everywhere! That smell… yes, the scent of victory.”
It smelled like napalm. As he said, it was the smell of victory. The entire city was in ruins, with not even the corpses or bones of Nazi soldiers left behind.
“Lieutenant Aldo Pitt.”
“YesSir!”
Lieutenant General Kilgore opened his mouth, putting a cigar in his mouth. Lieutenant Aldo Pitt hurriedly stood at attention.
“Where is the headquarters of the Nazis occupying this land?”
……
Lieutenant Pete held his breath at those words. He quickly answered in a hurry.
“The Governor-General of the Occupied Territories of the United States is in the Empire State Building in New York City!”
“Holy sh*t, the Empire State Building has become the headquarters of the damn Nazis!”
Lieutenant General Kilgore’s face turned red at those words.
“Did the Nazis even touch the Statue of Liberty?”
“That thing is a statue of that bastard Hitler…
“Oh.”
Tuk.
With those words, the cigar in Lieutenant General Kilgore’s mouth fell to the floor. The veins on my forehead were trembling as if they were going to explode at any moment.
“Command the jeep immediately.”
Lieutenant General Kilgore opened his mouth.
“Where do you plan on heading?!”
“Are you asking that? “It’s New York.”
“But we can’t recover their strategic point on our own…
“But are you still ‘bastards’? “Which bastard gave that unit name to cowards like you?”
Lieutenant General Kilgore asked coldly. The guerrilla unit bastards all shut their mouths and Yoosung shrugged his shoulders.
“No, those friends are not superheroes like you… Let’s just take care of it among the Nazi-killing angels given by God Himself.”
Before they knew it, the jeep stopped in front of them. It was right then.
At Lieutenant General Kilgore’s words, Lieutenant Pitt climbed into the front seat of the jeep without hesitation. Then, several more jeeps joined in, and the guerrilla unit ‘bastards’ began boarding at once.
“Forgive me Sir! “I will take you to New York like this!”
“Yes, that’s how you become a son of America!”
Looking at that, Lieutenant General Kilgore sighed, took out a cigar from his cigar case, and handed it to Lieutenant Pitt.
“There are no other Hollywood movies
.”
Yooseong muttered in bewilderment.
Not long after that, Imperial New York City.
A statue of Hitler giving a Nazi salute towered above Liberty Island. Not the Statue of Liberty.
“We need to tear down that damn statue right now.”
It was at that moment that the jeep was crossing the city. Beyond, they could finally see the enemies who had built barricades and were waiting for them.
[The ’13th Occultist Battalion’ of the Waffen SS is surrounding this place!]
[The 1932 1933 1945 Immortal Battalion…]
[The 131st Armored Infantry Battalion…]
Here in New York We have already fought several battles before arriving. The enemies also knew about the fact that two ‘Nazi killer angels’ were personally heading towards the Government General in the occupied territories. And although troops were desperately deployed to stop them, nothing changed.
However, it would be impossible to abandon the Government-General and go on a rampage out of fear of just two terrorists.
The Plague Lord’s blade, ‘Black Death’, was emitting an ominous black and green light.
“Shall we start after wiping them out with fighter jet bombing?”
“You crazy bastard!”
Yoosung said, but Lieutenant General Kilgore coldly shouted, saying it was absurd. Yooseong was dumbfounded and asked back.
“No, who said you were a crazy bastard?”
“Look at those buildings! Did you forget that this is New York, the center of the world?”
“Aha, Texas is not the center of the world, so you threw it away like that!”
Yoosung shrugged his shoulders and turned his back.
“The Nazi killer angel is coming. Make way.”
Yoosung muttered as he turned his back and kicked the ground. Holding the blade of the plague that will devour the world at the end of the apocalypse.
At that time, the Third Reich-occupied governor’s office in the Empire State Building.
[The tower has been cleared!]
[As a reward for clearing the 7th tier tower…]
A message came to mind, and the gravekeeper Georg lowered his head calmly. The mission to be performed in this tower has been completed.
Even if several players enter the world inside the tower, that does not mean that they all perform one mission.
“SS Reich Leader! “The President has tremendous trust in your performance!”
“Is that so. “It is truly an honor.”
A player who is said to be an apostle of the Immortal Lord and the pinnacle of necromancy. And the highest ranking member of the Nazi SS. It was a very unexpected title, considering that the player was treated as an ‘outsider’ in the world inside the tower.
“This is as far as I can accomplish in these historical coordinates.”
“…
The tomb keeper spoke and the soldiers’ expressions hardened at those words.
“And like I said, we can’t take on those ‘players’ with the forces we have here. Even if you pour in a few bombers, it doesn’t make any difference. “Not even the two nuclear weapons that brought the United States to its knees will be able to do anything about that existence.”
Beings that cannot be understood with the common sense of this world. Nevertheless, I had no choice but to believe it.
Because the evidence was right here.
He turned a war that was bound to result in defeat into victory, and not only that, he even took over the territory of the United States. Although several other players fought together for the Axis powers, they were nothing compared to the influence of this one man.
“Then what should we do…
The United Resistance is no longer a threat to the Empire. “Players also cannot exist for that long under the marks of history.”
“Then should we retreat the armed Great Forces stationed in New York?”
“There is no need for that.”
Saying that, the tomb keeper raised his head.
“My duty here ends, Immortal Lord.”
And then he started mumbling something incomprehensible into the empty space.
“But for the sake of my country and party, wouldn’t you give us a little respite in this historical context?”
Times Square, about a mile away from the Empire State Building.
Quang!
In the distance, the flames of hell were swirling again. Leaving the sound behind, Yoosung also turned his head towards his enemies.
Occultist Battalion Necromancers in Nazi uniforms were there. They all wore blood-red insignia with the Iron Cross engraved on their arms. Furthermore, when I realized the identity of the zombies they were running around, I felt nauseated.
They were prisoners of a concentration camp.
Only then did I finally understand why, in a city of this size, there were no people other than the Nazis to see.
“Why are there so many crazy people in the world?”
— What are you saying?
“Even the Nazi Joker said with a straight face that he was crazy.”
The meteor swung the blade of the Plague Lord towards the zombies. Ancient beetles sprouted from its flesh. Immediately afterward, the blackbirds began scattering the sea of shadows.
Bullets were raining down from all directions.
The Immortal Battalion were also zombies. However, they were different from the zombies run by the occultist battalion. They took cover using terrain features and used firearms freely.
“Wow, it’s a real Nazi zombie.”
Yooseong fixed the Plague Lord’s blade and gave it a new poison.
[Gives ‘Zombie Mold’ to the blade!]
After giving it, I activated ‘Shadow Step’ among the Nazi zombies taking cover. Immediately afterwards, Yoo Seong’s sword swung.
Just a scratch was drawn on the body of the Nazi zombies and that was it.
Immediately after, the Nazi zombies turned their backs, covered the shooting star, and started shooting at their comrades.
A zombie fungus that can infiltrate a creature’s brain, take over its command system, and further influence its nerves.
Although it has the form of a living organism along with viruses and bacteria, it is not enough to be named a plague.
In a city where bullets were raining down, a shooting star hit the ground again.
Each time the sword of plague passed over an enemy, the fungus began to infiltrate the body and take over the command system of the brain and nerves.
And before you know it, even those who were not grazed by the blade began to be reborn one by one as ‘meteor zombies’.
Because mold spores were flying along with the wind.
Every time the spores flying in the air were inhaled, the fungus infiltrated their bodies, regardless of whether they were alive or dead.
Before we knew it, the Times Square area had been transformed into a street of the dead. They were not masters of necromancy, but of biochemistry.
At that moment, a silhouette appeared beyond the streets of the dead.
“Oh my.”
The 2nd place player ranking is the gravekeeper Georg Billmeier.
He was wearing the black uniform of the Nazi SS and wearing the blood-red insignia with the Iron Cross on his arm. It proudly shows off the insignia of the SS Reich Leader, the highest rank in the SS.
“Wow, you’re just calling out for Hail Hydra. “Was it Hitler?”
“Look at my uniform. “Isn’t it beautiful?”
“…Please pay for the night, old man.”
The tomb keeper grinned silently at Yooseong’s sarcasm. Seeing that, Yoosung also did not hesitate.
Whoa!
The inaction of the Heavenly Demon descended on his body as he held the blade of the Plague Lord.
Myth level possession skill, Heavenly Demon Advent.
And in response to the inaction and deity of the Heavenly Demon, another deity descended.
A skeleton giant with only the upper body appeared in a blurry silhouette behind the grave keeper.
《Grave Lord》.
“You said you were just running a company, so where did you gain mythology skills?”
“I’d rather ask, King of Heroes.”
Georg answered.
“And from the looks of it, it’s not even an ordinary Heavenly Demon Descent skill, much less the blade of the Plague Lord.” After
hearing those words, Yooseong twirled the blade of Hoksa in his hand.
“Unequip weapon.”
“The Blade of the Plague Lord…?”
“Replace the side deck use skill card ‘Cause the Dead’ with ‘Frostworker’.”
Without hesitation, Yooseong changed the skill deck settings, and the cold energy of the Frost Lord swirled along his feet.
At the same time, I adjusted the blade made of ice and raised my head to check the setting.
(Skill deck list. Up to 7 cards can be equipped》
Assassination Synergy 一 Assassination Premonition Charlotte’s Web Shadow Blade Glacier
Synergy — Frost Crafter (New!)
Synergy not applied 一 Heavenly Demon Descent Sword Art Shadow Step
《Side Deck – Can be replaced immediately 2 times in total)
. Raising a disease of the dead (replaced with Frost Craftsman)
. Oculus
. Blue Discord
[Dark synergy disappears!]
[Glacier synergy has been created!]
[Class: 《Shadow Assassin》 has been promoted to 《Frost Assassin》!]
The maximum number of skill cards that can be equipped at the same time is seven.
Therefore, in order to use Heavenly Demon Advent and Frost Craftsman together, we had no choice but to give up and break the ‘Dark Synergy’.
Therefore, among the 3 dark attribute skill cards, ‘Raise the Dead (Devil’s Darkness)’ was replaced with the Frostworker from the side deck. Thanks to the effect of the artifact ‘Frozen Heart’, glacial synergy was applied even when holding one cold skill card.
‘There is no point in using necromantic skills against the pinnacle of necromantic arts.’
[Numerous monarchs are watching the fight between the two players with interest.]
Immediately afterwards, the asphalt road began to crack slightly in the area beneath the gravekeeper’s feet. The ground split open like a turtle’s shell, and the immeasurable darkness of the bottomless pit was visible underneath.
In that darkness, the dead who should have been buried in the underworld began to climb out one by one.
Therefore, Nazi soldiers controlled by the ‘zombie fungus’ began pouring bullets into the dead to stop them.
Cuong
At that moment, the ‘Myo King’, who was swaying behind the tomb keeper, swung his bony arm.
The Skeleton Giant’s arms swung, and a jet-black wind blew. Intuitively, I sensed the power contained in the wind and the meteor hit the ground.
Immediately afterward, a jet-black wind swept over the place in a beat.
The flesh and bones that made up the Nazi zombies in the area crumbled away. As if the clock between life and death was rapidly accelerating, their flesh and bones, clothes, and rifles they were carrying crumbled and flew around.
“Ashes must return to ashes.”
“Now that I think about it, there is an elderly person in front of me who is slowly turning to ashes… Oh, excuse me.”
Georg’s expression suddenly twitched at Yooseong’s sarcasm.
The earth was cracking apart and countless dead people were rising out of it. Nationalities, clothes, and even eras are all different.
Skeleton knights wearing swords, shields, and armor were holding swords and forming a shield formation. Among them, the dead holding the standard rifles of each country aimed their guns and pulled the triggers. Sometimes, instead of assault rifles, there were even old matchlock guns such as muskets and aquabuses mixed in.
Death Knight and Death Soldiers.
It was then that the Death Army stood between the meteor and the gravekeeper.
Darkness began to spread around the meteor’s feet.
The equipment skill, Veil of Darkness, contained in the black surcoat and corrupted equipment ‘Baptism of Darkness’ has been activated.
《Veil of Darkness》
– Attribute Dark Assassination Barrier
– Grade . Legendary
– Abilities
. The user’s shadow can be expanded to create a dark area that covers the entire area.
. In the veil, the user’s attack power is . cancer row. Evasion correction. Dex value increases significantly, and other beings receive a 50% weakening debuff in proportion to the increase in user size.
The frostworker’s magic was scattered within the veil. However, it was not intended to freeze Yooseong’s enemies.
Countless pillars of ice rose from all over the army of death, and between the pillars, Charlotte’s web was connected.
A death chamber with extreme cutting power.
Furthermore, the spider web of death connected to all the pillars was converging toward a single point.
Not towards the pillars and pillars, but directly towards the tip of the frost sword that Yoosung was holding.
Wow!
The frost sword was swung, and Charlotte’s web between the tip of the frost sword and the pillars began to dance.
The web of death weaved and weaved, swallowing up the armies of death. The flesh, blood, and bones were torn apart and disintegrated again.
Amid a hail of bullets, several Death Knights grabbed the hilts of their swords and rushed in. However, not even the swords clashed with each other.
The shapeless sword of the Heavenly Demon swung against them. The Death Knights’ armor and flesh and bones were cut away.
Immediately after, a shooting star stretched out his arms in the veil of darkness.
An ‘assassination alert’ was designated for Georg.
The inescapable mark of death had been cast and that was it.
Sound disappeared from the world. My field of vision became strangely narrow. Even the colors and scenery faded.
In a world full of darkness, only one path was visible.
The path that the meteor’s frost sword is taking. And what was waiting at the end of the road was the gravekeeper’s death.
The King of Heroes and the Sword of the Heavenly Demon were drawing a path toward Georg’s death.
The assassination notice and the veil of darkness,
the sword of the Three Swords of the Heavenly Demon and the six senses of a guide, and the essence of murder accumulated by the King of Heroes are placed on the tip of the sword.
“…
A sharply forged deadly force enveloped Georg’s body.
Players cannot kill players inside the tower. That must have been the case. However, there was no doubt that the Orc’s death was at the end of the path that the Hero King’s sword travels. That was all I could think of.
‘My death…?’
The undoubted fear of death, the end of life, ran up my spine.
‘I return to ashes…..?’
Even the Sword Master’s Dokgogu Sword, which requires +999 attack power multiplied by 9 times, was not this much. Is it because of the assassination warning debuff? No, no. It was not a feeling that could be explained by a few debuffs or skills.
“dare. How dare someone like you…”
The distance narrowed, and the intangible herbivorous power within the Heavenly Demon’s Three Swords finally unfolded.
“Do you think you can kill this immortal king…!”
That’s why the King of the Tomb, who was wrapped around Georg, roared and finally revealed the power worthy of the king’s name.
The deadly sword and the immortal body clashed.
Nevertheless, 1.
The applause that should have been heard did not ring out.
Georg could not block the meteor’s blow, nor could the meteor’s sword cut Georg. It was neither.
[“…I announce the end of grace!”]
[The Immortal Lord urgently
forcibly banishes the player ‘Georg Wilmeyer’ to the outside world.]
Immediately after, a message appeared. Yoosung was dumbfounded by the message and burst into laughter.
[The Clown Lord mocks the Immortal Lord, holds his stomach and bursts into laughter!]
“HA HAHAHAHA!”]
[The countless Lords laugh together and laugh at the Immortal Lord!]
[The Lord of Death He expresses satisfaction with the player ‘Kang Yoo-seong’ and laughs at the Fire Lion Lord in a particularly loud voice!]
[The Immortal Lord trembles his body in shame!]
At that moment, the flames of hell blazed with a roar in the distance.
Before we knew it, the Empire State Building and the Nazi Governor General of the United States were burning. Seeing that, Yoosung quietly turned his head. His role as a Nazi killer angel also ended here.
[You have cleared the tower of alternative history…]
The stage has ended. The curtain came down and it was time to receive what needed to be received.
[The Lord of Death
grants you the hero grade accessory “Executioner’s Oath”!]
[The Lord of the Immortal.
When I came out after attacking the tower with Lieutenant General Kilgore, an unexpected scenery greeted me.
“Oh, damn it.”
A country that was not defeated by the Nazis, was not attacked by nuclear weapons, and is the leader of the free camp that holds the hegemony of the world.
Because it was Times Square in New York City, USA.
“Mr. Kang!”
“Breaking news! The King of Heroes has appeared after attacking the tower with Lieutenant General Kilgore!”
“Did you attack the tower with General?”
The reporters rushed to point their cameras at Yoosung and Yoosung answered calmly.
“Oh, of course. He was holding onto my trouser legs and begging me to attack the tower together, so I went with him especially. By the way, CEO Orc, are you looking at this camera?”
And his mouth, which would float even if he fell into the water, started talking non-stop.
“When I saw it from the tower, the Nazi uniform looked amazing on him. Anyway, at the beginning of the season, he said he was focused on running the company, but I wonder where he was secretly growing like that.” “Looking at it, when I was in school, the second-best kids always did that.”
