Sand Mage of the Burnt Desert - Chapter 109
Sand Mage Of The Burnt Desert Chapter 109
Episode 109:
All of the women were as slender as models. However, their attack power far exceeded that of ordinary awakened people.
It was clear that they were empty-handed, but before I knew it, there was a small bow in their hands.
It was a specially manufactured item.
It was barely the size of a child’s torso and could be folded and stored. Because the base and string were made using the bones and tendons of the beast, they had tremendous elasticity.
The arrows were also made from the bones of demonic beasts, and their penetrating power was increased through magic treatment.
Shhh!
The women fired arrows at Zeon and Brielle.
Zeon and Brielle each dodged the arrows by flying in different directions. However, the arrow changed its trajectory and chased after the two people, as if its eyes were racing.
Xeon fired a fire missile and shot down the arrow.
pop! pop!
The arrows exploded like firecrackers along with an explosion.
On the other hand, Brielle performed her magic.
“Hmph! Barrier!”
With a burst of energy, a translucent film was formed in front of her.
bang! bang!
The arrow exploded after hitting the barrier.
“It seems like you have quite a bit of skill. But that’s not enough to escape the Green Leaf Special Forces.”
A woman wearing a fedora muttered in a cold voice.
The women she called the Blue Leaf Task Force were not ordinary people.
Their senses are several times more sensitive than those of ordinary humans, and their physical movements have also surpassed their limits thanks to special training.
Like bees, they circled around Zeon and Brielle at a frightening speed, firing arrow after arrow.
Shhh!
Zeon’s eyes became cold.
This is because I realized that the arrow was not fired with the intention of simply hurting Zeon and Brielle.
It was an arrow fired with the intention of taking one’s life.
The power contained in the arrow was so great.
Because of that, Zeon had no choice but to increase his power even more.
Fire missiles poured out non-stop.
Kwakwakwak!
Arrows exploded right in front of Zeon like fireworks.
A woman wearing a fedora muttered as she looked at the sight.
“It appears he is a fire-type awakened person. “It’s a pity that I don’t have the skills to live in a slum.”
She has already decided to kill Zeon and Brielle.
That’s how important Levin and the man were.
Levin was a rare breed of awakened man, and the killer man was important evidence.
I couldn’t give up anything.
It was clear that if other forces found out that they were with them, they would keep an eye on them.
The surest way to keep a secret is to eliminate witnesses.
The woman wearing the fedora was faithful to that principle.
She thought that Zeon and Brielle would fall soon. But things were going differently than she expected.
Zeon’s movements suddenly changed.
Zeon’s movements from defensive to offensive were much faster and more powerful than those of the women.
bang!
“Aaaah!”
A woman who was shooting an arrow flew backwards while drinking heavily.
Zeon’s fist exploded into her abdomen.
The Gauntlet of Incandescent Fire was a great item that allowed you to use fire magic, but it was a powerful weapon in itself. And Zeon used the Incandescent Gauntlet better than anyone else.
Deioden trained him harshly.
Even without using sand or using fire magic, Zeon was strong.
After being tempered by Deioden, he wandered the world for seven years and trained harshly.
His physical abilities were in no way inferior to those of those who had awakened to the martial arts world.
bang!
“evil!”
Another woman flew away with a huge explosion.
It was clear that my mind had been blown as I could see the whites of my eyes.
Zeon moved to find another victim.
“I’m dead!”
Pipi Piping!
The woman who became Zeon’s target fired arrow after arrow.
It was an incredible rapid fire.
The four arrows reached Zeon’s head, chest, and stomach almost simultaneously. However, Zeon simply struck down the arrows without showing any signs of panic.
With a metallic sound, the arrows bounced off the fiery gauntlets.
The woman widened her eyes.
This is because Zeon, who had struck down the arrows, was suddenly standing in front of her.
“Nonsense…”
Boom!
At that moment, Zeon hit her on the head with his fist.
Fortunately, her head didn’t explode, but she lost consciousness with blood spraying from her nose and mouth.
Zeon was ruthless.
There was no way to treat the other person just because they were a woman.
They sank one by one with each blow.
The eyebrows of the woman wearing the fedora trembled.
“Was it an awakening from the martial arts world, not the magic world?”
Even so, Zeon’s inaction did not make sense through common sense.
The sight of him using flame magic at the right time based on his strong physical ability gave a huge shock to the woman wearing the fedora.
Zeon defeated the entire Blue Leaf Special Forces in an instant.
“Off!”
“Ahh!”
The Blue Leaf Special Forces, trained not to scream under any circumstances, were lying on the ground and moaning.
It seemed like a simple punch, but it contained powerful flame energy.
The energy of the flame was condensed and penetrated into the opponent’s body the moment the fist made contact.
Because of this, the women who were hit by Zeon’s fist felt pain as if their entire bodies were on fire.
Burning pain is one of the greatest pains a person can feel.
No matter how harshly trained a person was, he could not endure the pain of being burned.
As they writhed in pain, the women’s hats came off.
“They were elves, after all.”
The exposed ears are pointed.
It was an irrefutable characteristic of the elves.
Even if their blood becomes blurred by marrying another race, the characteristics of elves never disappear.
Brielle wrinkled her nose.
“It smelled somewhat familiar. But there was a bad smell mixed in.”
Elves who have lived in the human world for a long time have a human scent mixed in with them.
It’s a smell that elves don’t like.
It feels even worse for a noble high elf like Brielle.
‘I’m sure they feel the same way. ‘Because my body was damaged from making drugs.’
Now we will never go back to those innocent days again.
Brielle bit her lip and put on her conical hat.
At that time, the head woman took off her fedora and said.
“I didn’t know there was a great awakened person in the slums. “If I had known, I would have made more solid preparations.”
“Did you say the Blue Leaf Special Task Force? “You’re from the North District, right?”
“that’s right.”
The woman answered honestly.
It got to this point and it was ridiculous to deny it until the end.
“My name is Borin Strabach. how about you?”
“Xeon!”
“Yes, Xeon! As you may have guessed, I am from the North District.”
“I thought so too.”
“Then you know what mistake you made, right?”
“Is there something wrong with the world? Or is the way of thinking of elves completely different from that of humans? Wasn’t it your fault? “You kidnapped Levin without permission and tried to take the killer away.”
“It is something I had no choice but to choose for the sake of the world. “There is no reason for me to feel guilty.”
“That’s so convenient. They can make excuses for what they did wrong by saying it was for the good of the world. I guess that’s how elves mixed with humans survive? Maybe that’s why I couldn’t enter El Harun.”
“El Haroun? “What is that?”
Borin asked with a frown.
Zeon frowned at her reaction.
‘She doesn’t know about the existence of cities of different races. Don’t the fallen elves know? Or do they only know the top and hide the information below?’
It was currently unknown which one was true.
Zeon answered deliberately bluntly.
“It’s okay if you don’t know.”
“ha! “You have a knack for making people angry.”
“You’re not even human, are you?”
“We are just like humans… no. “Why do I have to say this?”
“Because I was scared.”
“I beg your pardon?”
“When you’re scared, you tend to talk a lot.”
“This Borin is scared? Don’t be funny. “We elves are never afraid.”
“But why are you talking like that? “If I were you, I would have jumped in a long time ago.”
Zeon’s words were decisive.
Ting!
Borin felt the string of reason being broken.
When she came to her senses, she was already rushing towards Zeon.
As the leader of a special forces unit, Borin possessed tremendous abilities.
I knew how to use wind-type skills due to the elves’ unique mobility.
B-class magic awakener.
That was Borin’s true identity.
“Wind Cutter!”
Borin muttered softly and sent the Wind Cutter flying towards Zeon.
Wow!
What makes wind-type skills difficult to deal with is that they cannot be distinguished with the naked eye.
Just as the wind was invisible, wind-related skills were also invisible.
Rather than reacting by looking, I had to rely entirely on my intuition and move.
Therefore, awakened people with low grades or without much experience in battle had the most difficulty dealing with wind-based skills.
But it wasn’t Xeon.
Even if it was invisible to the eye, no matter how much it unfolded without a trace, it felt vivid to Zeon’s senses.
Pakang!
I hit the wind cutter with the back of my hand, which was wearing a fiery gauntlet.
Borin gritted his teeth and unleashed his next skill.
“Tornado Breath.”
At that moment, the wind spun at a frightening speed and flew towards Zeon.
A skill of destructive power that destroys everything it touches.
It was the most powerful skill she could unleash.
He realized that he had no chance of winning by attacking normally, so he did his best.
Kwakwakwa!
The tornado breath approached Zeon, destroying everything around him.
Brielle shouted in surprise when she saw that.
“oh! Danger…”
In her eyes, she saw a vision of Zeon being torn apart by a tornado. But it was literally just an illusion.
Zeon did not exist where the tornado breath passed through.
Brielle opened her eyes wide.
“When will we get there?”
Zeon was standing behind Borin.
It moved at a speed that Borin and Brielle could not perceive.
Zeon raised his hand and muttered.
“Fire Rain!”
At that moment, a huge amount of fire rain fell from the sky.
The rain of fire shot out like a meteor and struck Borin at an alarming speed.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
The rain of flames struck Borin mercilessly.
With the rain pouring down without a single drop of water leaking through, Borin did not even dare to avoid it and deployed his defensive skill, Wind Shield, to protect himself.
The rain of fire beat on the wind shield without stopping.
Borin bit his lip hard as he was repeatedly shocked.
‘There is a limit to mana, so I won’t be able to use this incredible skill for a long time.’
The more powerful a skill is, the more mana it consumes.
Because of this, certain skills cause the awakened person to become exhausted just by using them once.
Borin thought that the skills Zeon was using now would be the same. However, contrary to her expectations, the fire rain continued to pour with no end in sight.
Damn it!
Rather, it was Borin who ran out of mana first.
The windshield weakened and cracked.
“Oh, no!”
The moment her screams rang out, the windshield shattered.
What greeted her next was the rain of hell.
The rain hit her whole body like a bullet.
“Ahh!”
Borin screamed and fell down due to the tremendous shock.
Only then did Xeon stop spreading his fire rain.
Borin’s condition was surprisingly fine.
It was thanks to the barbarian coat she was wearing.
It looked like an ordinary coat, but it was an item with built-in protection magic.
The magic that unfolded just once in a moment of crisis saved her life.
“Off!”
Although his life was barely saved, Borin was so shocked that he could not move.
Zeon knelt down on one knee in front of Borin and made eye contact.
“Now let’s have a conversation. I think I’m ready for that.”
