Sand Mage of the Burnt Desert - Chapter 182
Sand Mage Of The Burnt Desert Chapter 182
Episode 182:
Grim Reaper was a magical beast without substance.
Physical attacks cannot inflict damage at all.
Only magic skills could cause any damage to the Grim Reaper. This also applies when using a B-level or higher powerful skill.
In some ways, it could be said to be the worst compatibility with Xeon.
Because Xeon’s ability to manipulate sand cannot harm the Grim Reaper.
Perhaps the Grim Reaper knew about that and showed up.
A black haze rose from the Grim Reaper’s scythe.
His scythe was the highest level item.
Also known as the Reaper’s Scythe.
If you get even slightly cut by this scythe, it will cause great damage to your soul.
Even if you are lucky and survive, your soul will be broken and you will eventually die.
Grim Reaper approached with the Reaper’s scythe in front.
“Let’s see where the sand really doesn’t work.”
Zeon raised his hand. Then, a subspace opened behind him and a huge amount of sand poured out.
The sand that filled the passage wriggled and stood up as if it were alive.
It looked just like a snake.
Viper.
It was one of Zeon’s skills.
Wedge!
Dozens of sand snakes flew towards the Grim Reaper.
Bub bub bub!
However, the Viper passed through the Grim Reaper in vain and crashed into the wall behind it.
Zeon fired the Viper several more times after that. However, the Viper could not hit the Grim Reaper.
I even used a sand mixer, but it was no use.
In Grim Reaper’s eyes, the young naturalization burned even more intensely.
When he confirmed that Zeon’s attack did not work on him, his confidence seemed to grow.
Sigh!
Grim Reaper swung the Reaper’s scythe.
Zeon stepped back, narrowly avoiding the Reaper’s scythe.
Grim Reaper, who decided that he had won, rushed forward at an even more frightening speed.
Shhh!
The passageway was full of reaper’s scythes.
The afterimage was created as Grim Reaper swung the Reaper’s scythe at an invisible speed.
Grim Reaper’s attack was extremely fast.
Because it is an intangible being, it moves without being restricted by space. However, even with Grim Reaper’s speed, it could not completely catch up with Xeon.
All of Grim Reaper’s attacks missed Xeon by just a few centimeters. Then, the young naturalization and the black haze in Grim Reaper’s eyes became even darker.
It was a sign that he was angry.
Wedge!
When Grim Reaper swung his scythe, black energy shot out.
The sickle-shaped black energy attacked Zeon as if it would cut him to pieces.
Avoiding narrow passages also had its limits.
chin!
Zeon’s back hit the wall.
There is no longer any place to escape.
Sickle-shaped energy poured down like rain on Zeon.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
With an explosion, the wall where Zeon was standing exploded, and a cloud of dust rose up.
Grim Reaper approached the wall with his Reaper’s scythe extended.
They are convinced that Zeon is dead.
This was when the Grim Reaper almost approached the wall.
Suddenly, a red flash burst out from the thick dust.
The moment Grim Reaper saw the intense red light, he trembled involuntarily.
I felt instinctively afraid of the red light.
The red light that Grim Reaper felt fear was the dragon’s eyes.
The dragon’s eyes embedded in the fiery gauntlet were revealed.
Dragons were magical beasts that could not be ranked.
No, putting it in the category of demonic beast itself was an unholy entity.
Even though Grim Reaper was an A-class magical beast, he could not compare to a dragon.
That is why you feel fear of beings higher than yourself.
Even if it’s just an eyeball.
Grim Reaper swung the Reaper’s scythe as if to shake off his fear.
Shhh!
Dozens of polite black energies poured towards Zeon.
At that moment, dozens of red energies spread out from the fiery gauntlet.
It was a fire missile.
Burbububbung!
Dozens of fire missiles intercepted all the black energy thrown by the Grim Reaper.
Not only did it crush all the black energy, but the fire missile flew towards the Grim Reaper.
A fire missile exploded on the Grim Reaper’s defenseless body.
Kieeee!
This time, Grim Reaper also screamed as if he had been hit hard.
Fire Missile was a skill that could be easily used by those who had awakened to the magic world. However, the fire missile fired with the power of the red dragon boasted a completely different level of power.
Grim Reaper’s body shook for a moment.
It seemed dangerous to blink, like a light bulb about to go off.
That’s how big a blow it was.
Even if the fire missile is the same, its power varies depending on who uses it. Of course, if you use good items, the power will inevitably increase.
It wasn’t just a good item; it was an item with a dragon’s eyeball embedded in it.
The Incandescent Gauntlet has evolved to the point where it cannot be ranked.
That power was being exerted against the Grim Reaper.
Push!
The area hit by the fire missile burned with white smoke rising.
Grim Reaper ran wild in agony as he felt pain for the first time.
The Grim Reaper, who was floating around in the air, soon opened his eyes to find the cause of the pain.
The cause was Xeon.
He knows that only by killing Zeon will this pain end.
Whoa!
The Grim Reaper flew at a frightening speed, exploding a different level of energy than before.
Grim Reaper became one with the Reaper’s scythe.
Kwakwakwa!
The black energy that covered the Grim Reaper became a storm and destroyed the passage.
There was no place for Zeon to escape.
I had no intention of avoiding it.
Zeon muttered as he stretched out his hand wearing the fiery gauntlet.
“Fire Rain!”
For a moment, the dark passageway was colored with red light.
A rain of flames filled the passage and poured down.
The fire rain struck the Grim Reaper horribly.
Burbubbubbuk!
Grim Reaper’s ability to pass through all physical attacks was of no use this time.
Kieee!
The Grim Reaper’s scream echoed through the passage.
Its body had become infinitely smaller than before. Still, like an A-class demon, he perseveres.
“As expected, this isn’t enough. Then…”
The corner of Zeon’s mouth curled up.
There was a skill I had always wanted to test.
Grim Reaper was a good beast to test.
Zeon has raised his dominance. Then, the sand scattered on the floor rose up and enveloped the Grim Reaper. But Grim Reaper didn’t care about the sand.
Because he knows that the sand cannot harm him.
Seeing that, Zeon’s smile grew even deeper.
Sigh!
Gaaaa!
The moment he clenched his fist, the sand surrounding Grim Reaper began to rotate at an alarming speed.
It was a sand mixer.
However, the sand mixer did not cause any damage to the Grim Reaper.
It just spins horribly and passes through all of the Grim Reapers.
Xeon also expected this much.
“What would happen if we added a fire wall here?”
A basic skill that literally builds a wall with fire.
Aside from the drawback of extreme mana consumption, any awakened person who has learned flame-type magic can use it. Until now, the effect compared to mana consumption was not very good, so it was not used often.
However, the story is different when the sand mixer and fire wall are combined.
Each and every particle of sand that rotated terrifyingly contained flames.
The red-hot sand mixer itself was no different from an extremely high-temperature furnace.
The Grim Reaper trapped inside screamed.
The black energy that protected the Grim Reaper had long since disappeared.
The extremely high-temperature sand rotating at extremely high speeds gnawed away at the body of the Grim Reaper.
Gaaaaa!
The crushed particles of the Grim Reaper melted in the flames and disappeared without a trace.
Kieee!
Grim Reaper was struggling like crazy, trying to get out of the sand mixer. But escaping was impossible in the first place.
“Just disappear. “You are a stranger who belongs neither in this world nor in the next world.”
In the end, the entire body of the Grim Reaper was ground up in the ultra-high temperature sand mixer.
Tuk!
All that was left was the Shinigami’s scythe that had fallen to the ground.
Only then did Xeon disable the sand mixer.
The heat that had heated up the air disappeared as if it were an eyewash.
The Grim Reaper was nowhere to be seen.
It has literally completely disappeared.
Zeon reached out and picked up the Reaper’s scythe.
The hand holding the reaper’s scythe feels numb.
Just by holding it, all kinds of curses penetrate his body.
The Reaper’s Scythe was a cursed item.
There was a terrible curse on it, so only those who awakened the curse world could not even get it.
Still, Zeon persevered.
It was to measure the curse on the Shinigami’s scythe with his body.
In an instant, all strength leaves my body and I can’t see. Your heart rate slows down and your skin instantly becomes dull.
“Tsk! “There are all kinds of curses on it.”
The Reaper’s scythe was the medium for all kinds of curses.
Just by holding it in his hand, a thousand curses invaded Zeon’s body.
Unless you were an awakened person like Zeon, you would have lost your life the moment you picked it up.
Zeon brought youthful energy to the fiery gauntlet. Then, all the curses that had been encroaching on his body burned away.
No matter how great the Reaper’s Scythe was, it couldn’t beat the dragon’s eyeball embedded in the Incandescent Gauntlet.
Thanks to this, Xeon became normal.
“You mean you can both curse and break?”
It’s not something someone told me.
The moment he picked up the Reaper’s scythe, he instinctively knew how to use it.
The value of the Reaper’s Scythe was infinite just because it could break a curse. However, there was no need for Xeon right now.
Zeon opened subspace and inserted the Reaper’s scythe. Then, what little remaining curse energy disappeared.
Zeon also threw all the used sand into subspace.
In an environment where sand is precious, it was an inevitable choice.
There was no longer any entity blocking Xeon.
As Zeon guessed, it appears that Grim Reaper was the last gatekeeper. Still, I didn’t relax.
It was then.
Cuckoo!
The entire underground area shook strongly, as if there had been an earthquake.
The floor he was standing on moved horizontally somewhere and the walls changed.
In some places, walls disappeared, and in other places, walls that weren’t there before appeared.
The entire underground space moves as if putting together a puzzle.
Zeon was not embarrassed and watched the change in space closely.
The space, or the entire castle, felt like a living creature.
Since there was no longer any way to stop Xeon, it felt like they were moving Xeon to the core.
thud!
After moving for a while, the space where Zeon was standing finally stopped.
At that moment, Lee Chae appeared in Zeon’s eyes.
This is because he met unexpected people at the place he arrived.
“brother!”
“Xeon!”
The people who greeted him warmly were Levin, Brielle, and Elroy.
Zeon said.
“Everyone was safe.”
“I thought you would still be alive.”
“There’s no way sand could kill Zeon.”
“You’re fine.”
They approached Zeon.
Zeon patted Levin and Brielle on the shoulders and looked at the people who were with them.
All of the Pegasus attack team, including Lee Ji-ryeong and Bronson Gesling, and the awakeners in the western area were visible.
They could not hide their surprised expressions at the sudden appearance of Zeon.
Ji-ryeong Lee spoke without even looking at me.
“You’re late.”
“There were a lot of people blocking it.”
“You had a hard time coming, so from now on, let’s just relax and watch.”
“….”
“How do we catch the owner of this castle?”
What Lee Ji-ryeong was looking at was the door in front.
The huge door that gave off an unusual atmosphere was telling.
It is said that the owner of the old castle is inside this place.
Lee Ji-ryeong broke down the door.
