Sand Mage of the Burnt Desert - Chapter 133
Sand Mage Of The Burnt Desert Chapter 133
Episode 133
As if he had never seen the old man before, Zeon concentrated on the battle with Raven again.
Goosebumps appeared on the back of the old man’s hand, who was holding a cane.
Although it was a brief moment, Zeon clearly looked exactly where the old man was.
“Did you really see me?”
A look of confusion appeared on the old man’s face.
A barrier was spread around him.
It was completely blocked from real space, so no awakened people could sense it.
Of course I couldn’t see it with my eyes.
Even if it’s the same numbers.
This was a fact I had confirmed several times so far.
However, even though it was only for a moment, Zeon looked at exactly where he and his twin sister were standing.
“You really saw through the barrier? No, that can’t be possible. “Even an S-class awakened person cannot detect my barrier.”
The old man denied his thoughts.
If Zeon really saw through his barrier, it means that he is an S-class or higher awakened person.
Until now, only two people had seen through his barrier.
It was Jin Geum-ho and Deioden.
Both of them were extraterrestrial beings who had lived since the era before the great destruction. That’s why I didn’t think it was strange when they saw through the barrier. Because it was a very natural thing for them.
However, no awakened person other than them could sense or see through the old man’s barrier.
If it was true that Zeon had discovered himself beyond the barrier, it meant that he was on the same level as Jin Geum-ho and Deioden.
“That doesn’t make sense… It’s probably just an illusion.”
The twin sisters looked puzzled as the old man muttered to himself.
“What doesn’t make sense?”
“No, it’s nothing. “Can you find out that guy’s name?”
“It won’t be difficult.”
“Then let’s find out.”
“huh!”
That was when the twins nodded at the same time.
Quang!
An explosion of alcohol on a completely different level than before was heard.
As I looked at the battlefield in surprise, I saw Raven flying into the distance.
It seemed as if he had received a huge impact, his coat was torn ugly and the bulletproof vest he was wearing underneath was completely destroyed.
The sunglasses he was wearing as a symbol were broken, leaving only his legs.
“Tsk!”
Raven threw away her sunglasses legs and stood up.
My whole body throbbed.
It feels like I was taken out of a huge shredder.
If the power in Zeon’s fist had been a little stronger, it would have disintegrated as if it had been put into a real shredder.
“I stepped on shit in the wrong place. “I never thought there would be someone like you hiding in the slums.”
“The absence of information always leaves painful wounds.”
“I admit it. That I knew nothing about the slums and nothing about you. That’s why I suffered a loss. But don’t think that I represent the district. “Because I’m just a hunting dog.”
“I know.”
“Tsk!”
Raven’s face distorted at Zeon’s calm answer.
He didn’t dare rush at Zeon and trembled.
Although their pride is hurt, they cannot move easily because they know that there is no use in attacking them.
It was then.
“You fucking bastards!”
Jacob, who had been lying dead until now after being attacked by Raven, woke up trembling.
In his blood-covered hand, he held the trigger device he had tried to press earlier.
He shouted, opening his bloodshot eyes.
“If this happens, we will all die together.”
“Me, me?”
Raven was taken aback by Jacob’s sudden behavior and stuttered. Because he knows what is in his hand.
“Hehe! I knew this day would come someday, but I really didn’t know it would be today. Still, if these many people were my companions, the road to hell wouldn’t be so lonely.”
Coincidentally, the place where Jacob was standing was where a large monster hunting bomb was hidden.
If it explodes, not only you but everyone near the square will be killed.
Raven shouted.
“Stop it, you bastard!”
“Fuck you!”
Jacob raised his middle finger at Raven and pressed the trigger without any hesitation.
“Shit!”
“ah!”
The old man and the twin sisters sighed.
They will be safe because they are inside the barrier, but the people in the plaza area will not be able to avoid death.
It was unfortunate, but I had no intention of getting involved.
They were not so compassionate that they even took care of people in the slums.
At that time, someone completely unexpected moved.
It was Zeon.
The moment Jacob pressed the trigger, Xeon launched himself without a moment of hesitation.
It was difficult to prevent the explosion.
However, it was possible to narrow the explosion range as much as possible.
Zeon filled the Gauntlets of Incandescent Mana with mana.
At that moment, a light strong enough to blind everyone burst out from the dragon’s eyes that were embedded in the fiery gauntlet.
“Ugh!”
“The eyes…”
Those exposed to the light became momentarily blind.
Raven, Old Man Go, and the twin sisters temporarily lost their eyesight and stumbled.
Quaaaang!
At that moment, the bomb buried in the square exploded.
Just as Jacob was swept away by the explosion and disappeared in an instant, and the firestorm was about to spread around him, Xeon reached the center of the explosion.
“Chaaa!”
With all his might, Xeon suppressed the explosion with his fiery gauntlets.
The light bursting from the fiery gauntlet enveloped the firestorm.
The firestorm could not spread further and was blocked by a film of light. But this was still not enough.
Zeon raised his mana even more.
“Tsk!”
Blood appeared at the corner of Zeon’s mouth.
We tried to stop the explosion from spreading further, but it wasn’t enough.
Zeon used his power.
‘go away.’
At that moment, the floor of the square where the bomb exploded caved in.
Zeon moved the sand on the floor to create a huge pit.
‘now!’
Zeon narrowly escaped after being crushed by a firestorm into a sand pit.
Kwaaaaang!
The suppressed flames exploded even more intensely, as if venting their anger.
Since all sides were blocked by sand, the explosion erupted into the open sky.
The sight of the pillar of fire rising high into the sky was truly spectacular.
“What is that?”
“What happened?”
Raven, Old Man Go, and others gaped when they saw the pillar of fire penetrating the sky.
I lost my eyesight momentarily and couldn’t see what was happening. That’s why I couldn’t help but be even more surprised.
“Suppressing an explosion.”
“What did you do? “Is that possible?”
“It’s crazy.”
“Is that a human being?”
Everyone knew that Xeon had definitely done something, but no one knew exactly what he had used to focus the explosion into the sky.
The pillar of fire that soared endlessly into the sky disappeared after a while.
The old man, who had been watching the scene until the end, opened his mouth.
“He is at least a class A awakened person.”
“Minimum? So you’re saying there’s a possibility it’s S-class?”
“You’re crazy.”
The twin sisters gaped at the old man’s declaration.
I wanted to ask them if they were mistaken, but they knew best that the old man’s insight was accurate.
When the old man said he was A-level, it was clear that he was A-level.
The proviso ‘at least’ was added there.
Then it could have been more than that.
You could only find out which one was true when you encountered it in person.
It was then.
A group of awakened people were seen running towards the main street connected to the square.
They were the awakened people of Dongdaemun.
“It’s over there.”
“Is it terrorism?”
Although the explosion was suppressed as much as possible to minimize damage, even the pillar of flame rising into the sky could not be hidden.
The awakened people of Dongdaemun who saw the explosion came running in a panic.
“What about him?”
Raven looked around, but Zeon was nowhere to be seen. It’s already gone.
“Shit! “I can’t help it.”
There was no reason to be here anymore.
Raven gathered all her equipment and left the square.
Old man Go saw that and said to the twin sisters.
“Let’s go too.”
“huh!”
They also left right away.
The Dongdaemun awakeners who arrived at the square where everyone had left were devastated.
“What kind of people did this?”
“Is this another scavenger thing?”
The Dongdaemun awakeners frantically tried to find the cause of the incident, but by then everyone had already left.
***
“Damn it! “It hurts quite a bit.”
Zeon grumbled, rotating his right wrist.
Zeon casually told a story that would have been shocking if others had heard it.
What he did was beyond common sense.
“If I didn’t have the fiery gauntlet, my arm would have blown off.”
When I first got the Fire Gauntlet, I had no idea it would be so useful.
Thanks to the fiery gauntlet, I was able to overcome numerous crises and properly hide the power of sand.
Since I haven’t taken it out even once for the past eight years, it now feels like a part of my body.
At that time, I felt like I was popular.
“Xeon!”
It was Brielle who came running late.
“Are you here?”
“are you okay? “I saw a big explosion.”
“It’s no big deal. Let’s go home.”
“now?”
“huh!”
“okay!”
The two completely left Dongdaemun.
Dongdaemun was shaken by a series of incidents.
The awakened people were frantically running here and there to control the situation, and the poor people were dumbfounded and did not know what to do.
The entire Dongdaemun area is literally in a state of panic.
Leaving the extreme confusion behind, the two returned to Sinchon.
When I came to Sinchon, I felt like I could live a bit.
Even though we were under the same sky, the air felt much fresher. Even though it is just murky air mixed with sand particles.
Zeon thought as he walked.
‘Who were they?’
Those who were hiding behind the barrier and watching secretly.
One old man and two girls.
It was too far away to see the face clearly. However, it was easy to tell that they were not ordinary awakened people due to their atmosphere and ability to strike barriers.
‘Where do they come from? Raven didn’t come out even when she was attacked, so I don’t think it has anything to do with the district. ‘Other districts or city hall?’
As of now, nothing was certain.
But just knowing that there were people watching was a huge gain.
It was then.
“hey!”
Someone came towards Zeon and Brielle, grinning.
The moment he saw her face, Zeon laughed and Brielle shook her head.
The woman who approached in a mess was none other than Elroy.
She, who was thrown as bait to ostracize the Dongdaemun awakeners, came back completely ruined.
Because of how hard he had worked, his clothes were all torn and his face and body had quite a few scars.
“Fuck! People are fighting and you don’t help them and you leave them alone? “How could you guys do that to me?”
“You managed to escape from Dongdaemun.”
“Do you guys know how much I suffered? The fanatics are coming like a pack of dogs… cadet!”
Eloy trembled as if thinking about it was terrible.
Fanatics who rush forward without fear of getting hurt or killed.
I would have felt better if I had killed him.
However, if they kill him, the problem will become so great that even Neo Seoul will be unable to handle it. It was the same in Dongdaemun.
It was an even harder fight because they had to neutralize each other without killing each other.
What makes him even more angry is that Zeon and Brielle kicked him out while he was struggling so hard.
“Are you running away and leaving your colleagues behind? “Can you still call yourself colleagues?”
“calm down!”
“Calm? “How can I calm down!”
As Eloi complained, Brielle picked her ears with her fingers.
“A half elf has a good voice. Your ears hurt….”
“You really want to die.”
“calm down. “Because I got a clue as to what you might like.”
“What? Really?”
Brielle grinned as she watched Elroy’s expression change.
“What?”
“I can’t tell you for free.”
“This little guy…”
“Hee hee!”
After that, the half elf and high elf argued for a long time.
