Regressor’s Life After Retirement - Chapter 192

[ Si-Balaam Suppression Operation (4)-Bong Margin ]

[Si-Balaam subjugation operation]

Until the operation, D-1

Daein was moving using underground tunnels.

Behind him was a platoon of special forces armed with firearms, and right next to him was a Three-Eyed Blood Monster from the Church of the Heavenly Demon.

Daein said while checking the map of the underpass and the current location.

“Where we are going now is the final point, right?”

“yes. That’s right.”

Beside him, the three-eyed blood clot twitched with a third eye engraved on its forehead – it was not a real eye, but a tattoo – and responded.

Among the warriors who came over from the Heavenly Demon Church, Samanhyeolgoe was weak in martial arts, but he was a master in fighting techniques and martial arts.

-Clark. Although it is not as good as this master, it will be quite useful if you take him with you. –

Cheon Mu-geuk himself mentioned so before leaving Seoul, so the great man accompanied the Samanhyeolgoe to the work of installing the Bong Majin.

As soon as Daein heard about the structure and principle of Feng Majin, the three-eyed blood monster understood it roughly and his eyes lit up.

“Such an ingenious formation… Did the Savior create this?”

“Well, that’s roughly it.”

Since I didn’t have anything to say, I just said that and the way the Three-Eyed Blood Monster looked at Daein immediately changed.

“There’s really nothing the Savior can’t do.”

“…Well, it’s like that. Anyway, I’m going to install this, so can you help me?”

“Jonmyeong! “I will sacrifice my life.”

“…I thought about it before, but you guys have a tendency to risk your life too easily.”

In any case, thanks to the Three-Eyed Blood Block, the work of installing the peak margin surrounding the Demon King’s Castle was able to proceed more easily than expected.

Googoo googung!

Earthquakes were continuing on the ground. Recently, although the magnitude of earthquakes has not been large, the once irregular cycle has become increasingly regular.

This means that the Demon King’s summoning spell is almost finished.

The great man recalled the appearance of the Demon King’s Castle that he had seen before coming down to the basement.

An iron-walled fortress surrounded by dark clouds and guarded by tens of thousands of zombies.

‘The summoning magic will probably be over in three or four days, even if it’s two days long.’

Therefore, Daein set the date of execution of the operation to tomorrow, immediately before that.

The plan was to complete the setup of the formation surrounding the Demon King’s Castle and activate the Bong Majin before launching a large-scale attack.

‘Once the peak margin is completed, the difficulty of the attack becomes much lower.’

[Bong Majin] was a technique that was based on the martial arts method and combined the magic barrier of the Gaia continent and technologies from various dimensions.

The Daebong Majin that is used when dealing with truly large-scale demon lords is very complex and requires a lot of materials and people, but an abbreviated version of it could be performed even with today’s technology.

‘It is activated by setting up a camp in a 10 km radius centered on the Demon King’s Castle and installing the medium that becomes the core of the camp in eight directions.’

Daein had installed mediums in a total of seven directions over the past two days, and now only the last one was left.

Daein looked back at the platoon-sized soldiers following behind him. They were all carrying heavy tactical backpacks. The backpack was full of magic stones and materials needed to set up the formation.

“Everyone must have heavy luggage. Let’s deal with it quickly and return.”

“…We are fine.”

Platoon leader Noh Jae-wook answered in a low voice. Those weren’t empty words, they were sincere.

The ruined underground tunnel was full of all kinds of dangerous elements. Monsters were roaming around inside, and there was a risk of collapse.

However, it was difficult to see any signs of nervousness on the faces of the special forces members.

Because if a group of monsters appear in front of me…

“Stop.”

The great man raised his hand and ran forward, drawing the Heavenly Demon Sword. After a while, the great man’s voice was heard from beyond the tunnel.

“You can come now.”

If you go there a little while later, at least dozens to hundreds of monsters will be dead.

‘It’s not surprising anymore.’

Platoon leader Noh Jae-wook and his platoon were in fact nothing more than porters and handymen who followed Daein around.

‘I was anxious when I heard that only one superhuman would participate in this operation, but…’

Other superhumans were still training martial arts under the warriors of the Heavenly Demon Church under harsh conditions.

‘Landlord. ‘That man alone does the work of more than a dozen people.’

Platoon leader Noh Jae-wook looked at the back of the man with an expression full of respect.

He knew what kind of person Daein was after hearing it from Joo Da-hye.

A man who already has both wealth and fame.

He was not a soldier who followed orders like himself, nor was he from Busan. He was a person who had no reason to go this far.

However, he threatened the mayor of Busan, who had only thoughts of running away to Seoul, to his knees, gathered the remaining forces in the shelter, and established a recapture operation.

‘Up until now, I thought that all the superhumans in the guild were egoists who only thought about themselves…’

Noh Jae-wook reflected while looking at the man called Landlord.

The back of a man with greater character than any other soldier he knows who saves people even if there is no benefit to him.

Noh Jae-wook made a promise as he clenched his fists.

‘If I survive this fight, I will tell many people what that man did here.’

-This is how 『That Day I Saw the Back of a Hero』, which later became an international bestseller, was born.

“…what. “It’s strangely cold.”

Daein felt an inexplicable chill, but assumed it was because it was underground and just ignored it.

After a while they almost reached their destination.

The great man said while looking at the stairs going up to the ground.

“Everyone be careful. “From now on, the real battle will begin.”

To the soldiers who tensed and stiffened, Daein smiled and continued speaking.

“Well, as long as you follow me carefully, nothing will happen.”

***

The reason Daein moved underground was to avoid finding out that he was installing a Bongmajin to Balaam.

If Balaam sensed something suspicious, he could have sent the zombies guarding the Demon Castle to interfere with the installation itself.

‘He might do something annoying like take a kid hostage and threaten him.’

Considering Lily’s utility value, it probably wouldn’t happen, but you never know.

The great man thought of Lily, who was trapped somewhere in the Demon King’s Castle.

…It wasn’t that I didn’t feel impatient.

However, recklessly attacking the Demon King’s Castle alone was no different from the stupidest thing in the world.

If you fail once, you won’t happen again.

‘Wait a minute, kid. ‘I’m going to scold you so much that you’ll be in tears tomorrow.’

The great man who came up to the ground turned his head and looked at the Demon King.

Coo goo goo goo goong!

Dark clouds were surrounding the castle. A world dotted with gray and black spread out around the Demon Castle, as if it had absorbed the surrounding colors.

“…….”

I’ve seen it several times in the past, but even seeing it again, it was a sight that made me shiver.

Countless corpses piled up in front of me. Memories of fighting stubbornly to not become one of them came to mind one by one.

In other words,

the moment you occupied that place, you would have the strongest fortress equipped with all kinds of functions.

“The location is perfect. “To make it the Busan branch.”

The great man muttered that and turned his head again.

In order to make Mawangseong the Busan branch, it was first necessary to solve problems nearby.

“I’ll go quickly.”

Daein took the lead and the soldiers followed. The Three-Eyed Blood Monster followed behind and used magic to erase their traces.

Crrr….

Kyaaa!

The zombies that had not flocked to the Demon King’s Castle but were still in the city discovered them and attacked them.

Daein took the lead, swinging the Heavenly Demon Sword and cutting down the zombies.

Wow! Wow!

A stream of ink-colored energy poured from his sword and cut the zombies into pieces.

Daein deliberately used the Heavenly Demon Divine Gong rather than the Pacheon Divine Gong.

‘We need to increase the achievement of the Heavenly Demon’s Demonic Art even a little more.’

After the battle with Balaam, Daein felt the need to practice the Heavenly Demon.

It wasn’t because the Heavenly Demon Divine Technique was stronger than the Breakable Heavenly Divine Technique. The two new skills were unparalleled skills that could not be said to be more superior.

However,

‘My achievement in Heavenly Demon Divine Art is too low to properly deal with the darkness within my body.’

An enormous amount of ‘darkness’ was latent within the great man’s body. But the great man could not use even a tenth of it as he pleased.

To be precise, it was not the darkness possessed by the Great Man, but the power of the ghost, a spirit.

“…But this bastard doesn’t answer even when I call him.”

For several days, Daein’s only way of dealing with the darkness on behalf of Diver Ah-gwi was to use the Heavenly Demon Divine Art.

‘As my Heavenly Demon Demonic Art’s achievement increases, the amount of darkness I can handle on my own increases.’

So, a few days ago, I hurriedly practiced the Heavenly Demon Divine Gong. While walking, lying down, and eating, I thought of Gugyeol and the advice given by my teacher, Cheon Mu-geuk.

-Hey. Are you just going to sit around just because the political war is over? When on earth are you going to practice martial arts?

“…Maybe I should have studied harder back then.”

The great man whetted his appetite, recalling the time when he was idle in the Heavenly Demon Church. Still, that was the best time in the martial arts world… As he was

cutting down the zombies running in front of him, Daein remembered another piece of advice from his teacher.

-The beginning of Heavenly Demon Divine Gong is to control the demon within the body, and the end is to become one with the demon within the body.- “I

wonder if someone is the martial arts grandfather. “I’ll teach you in a simpler way.”

The great man frowned and sighed.

It was not that Cheonmugeuk’s teachings were completely incomprehensible. I feel like I know, but I don’t seem to know. I felt a strange tickling sensation.

Wow! Wow!

The zombies that rushed at Daein were divided into two and three pieces. As the great man opened the way, he continued to think about the Heavenly Demon Divine Gong.

‘Right now, my Heavenly Demon’s skill level is 7 stars… No, it’s still around 6 stars.’

This isn’t enough.

You had to be at least 8 stars in order for the Heavenly Demon Sword Technique to be properly effective and the Heavenly Demon Sword’s supernormal abilities to be used.

“I think I’ll figure it out if I write a little more…”

Woooooo!

At that time, an ogre zombie over 4 meters tall came running towards me. The great man muttered to himself and swung his sword roughly.

“When I go back, should I read it again?”

Heavenly Demon Sword Technique 1 – Demon Dragon Cham

Puhwaaaaak!

A roughly swung sword split the ogre vertically.

The great man passed by him with his brows furrowed, without even looking at that place.

“Or…”

The soldiers following him had no time to be surprised. It was difficult to follow with all my might the movements of a man who seemed to be running lightly.

After a while, Daein arrived at his destination and stopped.

Tsutsutsutsu.

Something surrounded by darkness was crouching. It raised its head as if it sensed the presence of a great person.

[Crrrrrrrrrrr….]

For a moment, their eyes met.

Blue light flickering in two wide-open eyes. The thing stood up, flapping the darkness like a cloak.

In his bony hand, he held a large yam sword.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!

A lovely bright blue flame rose above the blade. The great man muttered as he looked at that figure.

“Death Warrior.”

Undead that arise in a land that has become a demon world.

Among them, those who possess magical power within their bodies and are exceptionally strong become high-level undead.

“I don’t know who it is because all that remains is a skeleton…”

Perhaps that Death Warrior was one of the strongest superhumans in Busan.

[Krrrrrrr….]

And the place where he was standing was the last place to set up the peak margin.

The three-eyed monster who followed behind said with an expression of admiration.

“It seems like that monster also knows that this is a spiritual vein. If you leave it like that… “I will absorb the power of the spirit vein and continue to become stronger.”

“I know. “I’ve seen it a few times before.”

Slurp.

The great man took out the Heavenly Demon Sword and stepped forward. Ink-colored energy bloomed from his sword.

“I just needed some real practice. “It looks just right.”

If it’s Cheonmabirok, I’ve read enough.

I continued to ponder my teacher’s teachings.

All that remains is to encounter and embody the teachings directly with your body.

“The best training is actual practice.”

The great man taunted the Death Warrior by shaking his Heavenly Demon Sword.

“Go for it. Practice some Heavenly Demon Magic.”

[Kwaaaa!]

-Quaang!

The Death Warrior hit the ground and rushed at Daein.
