Sand Mage of the Burnt Desert - Chapter 184
Sand Mage Of The Burnt Desert Chapter 184
Episode 184
His name was Trigian Mael Breeden.
He was the ruler of a kingdom and was nicknamed the King of Knights.
He was a ruler respected by everyone and a great sword that protected the kingdom.
The kingdom prospered and peace seemed to last forever.
But catastrophe came suddenly and the kingdom was destroyed.
The king, who lost his people, despaired and resented and hated God. And it fell.
The fallen knight king committed all kinds of evil deeds and was punished by God and was sealed in the prison guard’s rope. And all the knights he led became undead.
The undead knights hoped for the resurrection of the great knight king Trigion. However, with the destruction of the world of Qurayan itself, the Jade Keeper’s rope where Trizian was sealed disappeared.
In despair, they waited for the jade keeper’s rope to return one day. And just like a lie, the Jade Keeper’s rope returned and Trijian’s seal was broken.
It was time for Trijian to come to his senses and inspect his new body.
―Have you come to your senses? master.
Suddenly, I heard an alien voice in my head.
‘Who the hell are you?’
―Master, this is Hyeonmu. Don’t you remember?
‘Hyeonmu?’
―This is Hyeonmu, an AI that assists the master.
‘That’s fascinating. ‘There’s another spirit living in people’s heads.’
-parasitism?
At that moment, Hyeonmu sensed something strange.
Although it is said to be a deteriorated version of the Three-Legged Crow, Hyeonmu was also an AI equipped with a high degree of intelligence.
I knew how to judge and think for myself.
―Master consciousness emergency check.
Hyeonmu hurriedly began checking Cha Jin-cheol’s consciousness.
At that time, Tryzian, who had taken control of Cha Jin-cheol’s body, stood up.
Slam! Slam!
At that moment, a subtle metallic sound came out of my arms and legs.
Lee Chae appeared in Trijian’s eyes.
‘What? What about this body? ‘There’s metal mixed in.’
Cha Jin-cheol’s body combined with the machine was the first time Trijion had seen it.
Trijian moved his arms and legs carefully.
‘Adding human bodies and machines. What kind of wizard performed such a cruel test?’
―It is judged that the Master’s mind is contaminated. As of the current time, all connections with the master will be severed and the assistant AI Hyeonmu’s three-legged crow return protocol will be implemented.
‘Three-legged crow? Return protocol?’
For a moment, Trijian’s eyes lit up.
It was the first time I had heard the word, but I easily figured out its meaning.
This was discovered by searching Cha Jin-cheol’s memories.
Although he was a knight, he was also skilled in magic.
Trijian first used searching magic and contemplated his own body.
The structure of the mechanical arms and legs is clearly visible.
The next thing I noticed was the heart.
There was something mechanical attached to the human heart.
It was a mana engine.
Magical engineering unique to the West region that amplifies the mana of the heart.
The Mana Engine, conceived by Kim Hyun-soo and completed by Sam-Legged Crow, was itself the culmination of science and magic.
Trijian instantly grasped the structure of the mana engine and understood its principles.
Next, Trijian’s consciousness headed to the central nervous system where the head and neck meet.
There was a small iron box there.
The metal box, the size of an adult’s fingernail, had all kinds of magic treatment, and I could feel active movement inside it.
I could feel the consciousness of the AI named Hyeonmu within him.
‘what? Is it perhaps the core of a golem?’
It was easy to understand when I thought of it as a golem.
A human transplanted the golem’s core, and as a result, the golem’s consciousness intervened in the mind.
The mechanical limbs demonstrate their greatest power with the help of the golem.
It was truly amazing.
To Trijian, all of this came as innovation.
‘But there is a body?’
So, what is currently in Cha Jin-cheol’s body is a part of the main body.
‘If just a part of it exerts such amazing power, how great of a world would the main body show?’
Trijian’s imagination was unleashed infinitely.
Although it has only been a short time since he took over Cha Jin-cheol’s body, he has already adapted to this body, mind, and the sum of new civilizations.
But he was not given any more time.
bang!
His body shook violently as he drank heavily.
A great threat was felt.
Finally, Trijian opened his eyes.
Then he saw a man trying to attack him and people desperately trying to stop him.
The man trying to attack was Zeon, and those trying to stop were the awakened people of the western sector.
“This crazy bastard dares to kill the captain.”
“Fuck! Everyone attack this bastard.”
All the awakened people in the western area rushed to Zeon.
Zeon sighed lightly.
“I really don’t think this is the time. “Your colon is not normal.”
“noisy.”
“I’m dead!”
The awakeners in the western sector attacked without even pretending to listen to Zeon.
Zeon dodged their attacks and looked at Cha Jin-cheol.
A red light was flickering in Cha Jin-cheol’s eyes.
A red light that repeatedly brightens and darkens, as if a camera is focusing.
Even at first glance, it did not look normal.
At that time, Cha Jin-cheol’s eyes became stable.
The red light stopped blinking and settled firmly in the pupil.
At that moment, Xeon was certain.
This means that the entity that was sealed in the Jade Keeper’s rope has completely taken over Cha Jin-cheol’s body.
“You’re late!”
However, I couldn’t just leave Cha Jin-cheol alone.
I don’t know what took over Cha Jin-cheol’s body, but I couldn’t let him come out into the world like this.
In order to get to Cha Jin-cheol, you first had to destroy the awakened people blocking your path.
bang!
Zeon’s fist exploded into the abdomen of the leading awakener.
An awakened person who collapses without even being able to scream.
Zeon jumped over him and attacked the awakened person right behind him.
His physical ability was greater than that of a person who had awakened to the martial arts world.
Add to that the experience of wandering and fighting in the desert for eight years, and the awakened people in the western sector were no match for him.
Kwazijic!
“Keuuk!”
The mechanical arms of the awakened people in the western area were completely torn off or broken.
In an instant, the awakened people who had been blocking Zeon’s path collapsed.
Other awakened people tried to stop Zeon, but Brielle came forward and interfered.
“yap!”
She took something out of her cone hat and threw it between Zeon and the Awakened.
The ball-like object was a type of bomb.
pop!
As the bomb exploded, thick smoke rose.
“Tsk!”
“what?”
The awakened people in the western area who inhaled the smoke looked embarrassed.
This is because my limbs suddenly lost strength.
Brielle said with a bright smile.
“Heng! Your neck hurts and you have no strength, right? “This is a special bomb that I specially created knowing this would happen.”
There is a material that is absolutely necessary for mechanized awakeners who have given up their human bodies and combined with machines.
It was the lubricant that made the machine run smoothly.
Whether the amount was small or large, lubricant was essential for mechanized awakeners.
The bomb Brielle made had the property of hardening the lubricant. Even a small amount of inhalation hardens the lubricant.
The effect only lasted about a minute or two at best.
It just temporarily slows down the movement of mechanized awakeners. But that alone was of great help to Xeon.
While the awakeners in the western area were hesitating, Zeon arrived in front of Cha Jin-cheol.
Trijian, who took over Cha Jin-cheol’s body, said with red eyes shining.
“Who are you that dare to prevent the resurrection of this body?”
“I don’t know anything about that.”
Zeon threw a powerful punch.
bang!
Tryzian was hit by a fist with a fiery gauntlet and flew backwards. Trijian’s chest was hollow.
The wounds were such that an ordinary person would have died instantly. But Tryzian just brushed it off and stood up as if nothing had happened.
“It’s a pretty powerful attack. But this amount cannot cause any significant damage to this body.”
“We’ll see how far we can flutter until the end.”
Zeon said coldly and rushed towards me.
The dragon’s eyeball embedded in the fiery gauntlet radiated powerful light.
At that moment, Trijian’s red eyes glowed wildly.
“It’s the cursed dragon’s eye. “I can never forgive anyone who uses the dragon’s energy.”
His voice was full of anger toward the dragon.
This was inevitable because the dragon was the one who acted on God’s will and sealed him in the prison guard’s rope.
Fu Chemical!
Gray energy was released from Trijian’s whole body.
It was a gray auror unique to mechanized awakeners.
The gray auror spread like a spider web and attacked the awakened people in the area. The awakened people, whose bodies were frozen by Brielle’s bomb, could not avoid the gray auror.
“Keuuk!”
“Ugh! Leader. “We are.”
The faces of the awakened people in the western area turned pale.
This is because the machine body was not controlled from the moment it was consumed by the gray auror.
Cha Jin-cheol’s will intervened in their bodies.
It wasn’t something someone told me.
The moment I took control of Cha Jin-cheol’s mechanical body, I realized it.
How can I make this body stronger?
A mechanical body could be made as strong as possible as long as the parts were available. And coincidentally, there were bodies lying around that could be used for parts.
They were the awakened people in the western area.
There were four keywords that came to Trijian’s mind at that moment.
Digestion Extraction Combined Amplification.
The mechanical bodies of the awakened people in the western area are disassembled and their parts are extracted. And it fits into Cha Jin-cheol’s body to amplify its power.
His imagination became reality.
Kwakwakwa!
“Ahh! Leader.”
“help me!”
With the screams of the awakened people in the western sector, the mechanical body disintegrated into pieces. Useful parts were extracted from the disassembled body.
The parts flew at an incredible speed and combined with Trijian’s body.
In an instant, Trijian’s body doubled in size.
His arms and legs became thicker and his upper body swelled significantly.
It looks similar to a gorilla.
It lacks the dignity of being considered the king’s body, but it can be modified later.
An enormous amount of mana flowing within a metallic body made up of countless parts.
Trijian felt powerful and liberated.
“Who will dare stand up to Jim?”
His shout rang out loud.
-Oh oh! The King is resurrected.
The first to react was the knight commander who was fighting against Lee Ji-ryeong.
-Oooh!
-The king has returned.
The undead knights went berserk at his shouts.
“what?”
“What’s wrong with these?”
Lee Ji-ryeong and the awakened people looked embarrassed.
This is because their combat power suddenly soared.
Lee Ji-ryeong urgently looked at Trijian.
“Was the real boss over there?”
I wanted to get out right away and deal with Tryzian. But the knight commander did not let him go.
-No one can approach the king without my permission.
Trijian said after seeing the knight commander like that.
“Gregoric. “My faithful subject.”
-Oh oh! O king.
“Let’s wipe them all out and go out into the world. “I will plant my flag in Neo Seoul.”
―Neo Seoul?
“This is a kingdom established by the humans here. I will place the land under my feet.”
-Everything will be done according to the king’s will.
The spirit of the knight commander was amplified.
Trijion received a buff when he was resurrected.
The combat power of undead knights also increased.
Lee Ji-ryeong’s eyes wavered.
“what?”
“You need to come to your senses. “If we let them go, Neo Seoul will be in danger.”
Jeon’s voice brought Jiryeong Lee to his senses.
It wasn’t simply a matter of whether or not you could conquer the dungeon.
If they cannot be stopped, the very existence of Neo Seoul will be in danger.
Lee Ji-ryeong said to Zeon.
“Go away. “Without sand, you can’t deal with them.”
“Who says that? There is no sand.”
“what?”
At that moment, a subspace opened behind Zeon’s back.
Sigh!
Red sand poured out like a river from subspace.
