[Ah-yah-yah.]
Moaning for a moment, trapped in a cage that roars in the dark basement.
Yuna-kyung jumped up.
After groping his body with his wings, he let out a sigh of relief.
[I thought I was going to die.]
She cursed her bad luck a while ago.
It was just hanging from Nadia’s backpack in a cage and was accidentally dragged together, but suddenly Rose and Hasneti would fight a duel.
Thanks to that, I was swept away by a storm.
Scorched in the hot heat.
The back that almost got stepped on while still in the cage.
He managed to survive in a mess where any player would die in the aftermath of the fight.
At this point, it was difficult to tell whether he was unlucky or strong against bad luck.
Of course, the most helpful thing was the shield item I received from Hasneti along with the flame item rather than bad luck.
[But what happened to this? Could it be an earthquake?]
That made Yuna-kyung even more nervous.
I thought the mess was over when I saw Rose put a sword to Hasnetty’s throat.
Before I could breathe, the ground went out and I had to roll into this underground, so I had no choice but to be absurd.
[I can’t do it, I have to escape first… Huh?]
Anyway, Yuna-kyung, who was about to cross the space to get out of the cage, hesitated for a moment.
[…Can’t move space?]
It’s like space movement is blocked.
It was not a particularly unfamiliar experience.
I’ve already experienced it in the Great London World War or Amazon.
However, the reason Yuna-kyung was perplexed was that this feeling of interfering with space movement was too familiar.
It’s not even a magic barrier.
It feels different from the spirit’s power.
But the atmosphere is so familiar.
[Could it be… a dungeon?]
Even though he’s just a baby bird now, he was a promising high-level player in his lifetime.
Realizing the identity of this place through subtle sensory differences that interfere with space movement, Yuna-kyung was stunned with all her might.
Considering the fight between the two princesses, it was understandable that the ground collapsed in the aftermath.
However, the place where they ‘accidentally’ fell is a dungeon, and a space blockade area?
[No, I’ve never heard of it being possible to enter a dungeon like this in the first place?]
Yuna-kyung was suspicious.
Of course, it took a lot to be a coincidence.
The more I looked at it, the more I felt that this place was something different from an ordinary dungeon.
[I guess I was mistaken? If this is a real dungeon, monsters should already appear by now…]
Wriggling.
[…]
Like a broken doll.
Yuna-kyung looked behind her.
And the moment I opened my eyes to confirm the identity of the strange sound I had just heard.
Quaang!
[Kyaaak!]
It happened in an instant.
Something suddenly rushed in and broke the cage.
The defense item was activated, and Yuna-kyung, who was wrapped in a round protective film, bounced out among the wreckage.
It was only one second that he hesitated due to the shock of hitting the shield. Something that disappeared in the dark
as if angry at missing its prey
attacked Yuna-kyung fiercely again.
[Wow!]
Food good!
Yuna-gyeong, who escaped the attack by flying up with a desperate flap of wings, broke into a cold sweat.
It was hard to see because of the darkness, but I could tell what it was by just looking at its furious movements.
‘Monsters are high-level monsters too!’
‘Then this is a real dungeon?’
‘How the hell…?’
‘No, now is not the time for me to think about things like this!’
Confused, Yuna-kyung immediately shook her head.
And went straight up.
It wasn’t just to avoid the monster lurking in the dark.
I don’t know what happened, but I thought that since I fell down and came here, I’d find an exit if I climbed up.
‘We need to get out of here quickly! And I have to tell the team leader about the situation…?’
wriggling
but right after that.
Yuna-kyung hardened.
Instead of an exit that was supposed to be there, the ceiling blocked the top.
And the presence she felt there shocked her.
Even before Yuna-gyeong realized that something was wrong only belatedly, she hurriedly walked away from the ceiling.
Something that covered the ceiling and wriggling came crashing down on her.
[Kyaaah!]
* * *
“Unfold the Hexagon Changseongjin (六角昌城陣)!”
Just like Yuna-kyung did.
It was the same that Lucas and the Changryongdae also fell here as the ground suddenly collapsed.
Fortunately, unlike Yuna-kyung, who was separated, those who gathered to form Jin were not separated.
The unfortunate thing was that he was attacked more quickly by more monsters.
Of course, they are the strongest armed force of the Blue Dragon clan.
They were the ones who could easily defeat most high-level monsters even if they flocked in groups.
The problem was that their condition was not normal.
Originally, assisting the princess’s yonghwa is an act that puts an extreme burden on the mind and body.
As much as they fought fiercely in that situation, they were all exhausted enough to run out of psionics from the moment the battle was decided.
I fell in such a state and was attacked by a group of high-level monsters.
Even they, who are masters of the master class, had no choice but to be overwhelmed.
So was Lucas.
Chew!
“Keugh!”
For a while to fight against the four-armed monstrous monster that was fiercely attacking.
Lucas gasped for breath as he gnawed his teeth and blew off the monster’s neck while still staggering from the already injured side.
To him, who was originally a class master, monsters of this magnitude were not even pointed out in ten seconds.
Even so, after exchanging almost lilies, I was able to finally defeat him.
It was serious.
‘Is it the limit after all?’
bloody wounds.
tired body.
The most fatal thing was the exhaustion of psionics.
There was still a handful of psionics left, but the flow of psionics that broke off infrequently even though the method was unfolded was telling.
The fact that soon he and the other psionics of the Changryongdae would run out.
‘I can’t last long like this…!’
The superhuman strength of the masters of the Seven Dragons comes from using psionics with all kinds of ecclesiastical learning, including the seventy-two kinds of martial arts.
But what if the psionic falls?
Like a car running out of gas.
Any master has no choice but to lose his superhuman physical abilities and fall into an ordinary human being.
And it was infinitely close to impossible for an ordinary human to face a high-level monster with only swordsmanship.
Especially in a situation like now where you are surrounded by hundreds of monsters.
So I had to find a solution quickly… but
‘I have no choice but to become the king in front of the blood.’
Lucas gritted it.
In this place where space is sealed, it is impossible to escape by space movement.
However, everyone was too tired to break through the crowd of monsters, and they even had luggage.
Truly a king in front of blood.
Like Richard the First, the King of Swords, who stopped the advance of madness led by Joan of Arc, the swordsman, even though he knew he would be defeated.
It was a situation where I had no choice but to fight until the death.
The problem is that unlike the Sword King, who was able to hold out for 10 days because he prepared a hundred swords, they are so exhausted that they cannot even pick up a sword.
“Save your stamina and psionics! The injured stand back and focus on psionic recovery!”
Even though Lucas knew that fact, he fought against the monsters desperately.
He is the Blue Dragon Princess’ aide.
Because despair was not allowed.
Puff up! Wood deok!
“Eww…!”
But not everything will be solved if you don’t give up.
The more he struggled, the more his psionic power was depleted, and Lucas’ injuries, who fought in the forefront, got worse.
The moment when Lucas, who had reached his limit, was about to collapse in front of the crowd of summoned beasts.
Kwaaang!
A fiery explosion ensues.
The leader of the crowd of summoned beasts flew away.
Instead of being surprised by the sudden support, Lucas swung his sword and cut down the surviving monsters.
And I looked back.
“You know that your life is in danger if you overdo it, right?”
“But I can’t die without leaving my hands…”
A bloodless face.
A bandage wrapped around the upper body.
Even the voice that goes there.
A small-sized girl whose life seems to be on the verge of death.
Nadia put down the grenade launcher she was holding in her baggy military uniform.
Then, he took out a new firearm from his backpack, a space expansion item, and passed it over.
To the members of the Yeomryongdae who were protected along with him in the camp created by the Changryongdae.
Chunk.
Due to the aftereffects of repeated Yonghwa, his psionic power was depleted and he even suffered internal injuries, right after he fainted and woke up.
As befits the fighters of the Jeokryong clan, the members of the Yeomryong team calmly received and took care of their firearms.
So, the moment they each loaded their guns, took a seat behind the members of the Changryong squad and pulled the trigger.
Thang taang tadang! Pew!
The advance of the monsters that were entangled with the members of the Blue Dragon crumbled.
It wasn’t even firing.
I only aimed and fired one shot at a time.
Even so, most of the bullets pierced the monster’s forehead and heart without an inch of deviation.
“Excellent.”
“Collock is a Russian-made gun. I couldn’t buy the American one because it was too expensive…”
“Shooting skills.”
“Of course… We are the Red Dragon Clan?”
Taang!
Although they cannot compare their marksmanship with the musketeers of the Golden Dragon Clan or the warriors of the Silver Dragon Clan, they say that they are fighters proficient in all weapons.
Nadia, who was coughing up blood and defeated the monster with her 100 skills, said proudly.
Then, taking out a new magazine from his backpack, he added a word.
“Don’t expect too much… We don’t have enough ammo.”
A special bullet that does damage that ignores defense. It’s a shame that it’s so expensive that it’s made in Russia.
Besides, since I used a lot of firearms to fight Lucas, if I keep going like this, the remaining ammunition will run out quickly.
Despite Nadia’s desperate confession, Lucas was not disappointed.
I just answered calmly.
“Does not matter.”
“Really…?”
“Even when the blood blooms, the king smiles.”
“…That’s a great resolution.”
While Nadia giggled and reloaded her gun.
Lucas stood in front of her and cut down the attacking monsters.
So did the others.
The Changryongdae used their armored body as a shield to block the advance of the monsters.
The Yeomryongdae poured firepower from behind them and defeated the monster.
Everyone knew that this resistance would soon reach its limit, but they did not give up.
distant past.
Sword King Richard I, who fought against Joan of Arc in order to protect his people, was eventually defeated by her sword.
But it took ten days.
Because I believed in my friend who would definitely come.
It is said that he died laughing.
Unlike the sword king, there was not a single one among them who wanted the princess to save them.
Nonetheless, with a willing heart.
The two clans, who not long ago fought for each other’s lives, now face the enemy back to back.
As much as they endure, they believe that the princess they respect will be even a little safer.

Quaang!
“Kuh…!”
A beauty in a tattered uniform.
Rose coughed up blood.
Internal injuries were caused by receiving a huge fist that would crush even a rock in the front.
But Rose didn’t back down.
no i couldn’t
Behind her now was Hasneti, who had a huge hole in her abdomen and was pouring out blood.
“What is this?”
Swinging her sword like that to protect Hasneti, Rose shouted out loud as she glared at the monsters that were swarming in her field of vision…
No, to be precise, the smiling man on top of the biggest giant among them.
“Summon Lord!”
