Sword Pilgrim - Chapter 130

Episode 130:

Ku Woo-wook.

The groans of the dragons whose heads were stepped on echoed across the heated battlefield.

“Turn it off…!”

“It’s really gross because the lizard is fidgeting.”

The sight of him struggling with his limbs and tail as if in a seizure pierced the princess’ gaze full of disgust.

As she withdraws, she gets up in a fit and rushes, but is stopped by the knights. Spears pierce legs and torso.

I can’t hold back my grief as I bite the froth of blood, but I struggle to open my mouth.

“Even though… I was captured because of my lack of strength! Soon, the chieftain of the clan will pierce your heart and bite you!”

“Who is the chieftain?”

“Pilomature! The clan’s young! A mighty warrior! You guys get out of the swamp…”

Kwajik!

The princess of the principality who was watching from behind.

Rebecca swung her mace and pounded not only her head but also her whole body like minced meat.

“Do I really have to do that?”

“Radon, the god of mace, said. You have to swing it to be purified.”

Doctrine is like that.

Wherever the mace touches, sins are forgiven. That is the mercy of the principality.

The princess stuck out her tongue at the bizarre doctrine of the mace.

The principality is truly crazy.

“Anyway, it got pretty ironic.”

“That’s right. What was it? All of a sudden, the nets came pouring in simultaneously.”

“…Maybe it’s some kind of sacred art.”

The princess’s eyebrows rose.

“I’ve never heard that sacred arts can exert such power. Wouldn’t it be better if he used a holy stone as a medium? At least the lizards?”

He couldn’t have had that many Holy Stones.

“Looks like someone else did something. In a way we don’t know.”

was interrogating

I wonder if that’s what he did.

“Then it must be the work of an assistant.”

The princess smiled and passed it over.

“It’s pretty annoying.”

The princess clicked her tongue and looked around the forest.

Even so, swamps were formed everywhere in the forest, making it difficult to advance.

Besides, it is narrow.

It was quite difficult to wield the spear.

It was easy for those with short spears, but even that was cumbersome since it was difficult to move once they entered the swamp.

Originally, there is a saying that the basics of martial arts come from the lower body, but since the swamp is spread out in all directions, it was impossible to use the strength of the lower body.

This is a land of bastards.

It was a good battlefield for them.

‘Thanks to that, the damage is greater than expected.’

The spirit of the soldiers was killed, and dozens of knights were killed or wounded.

“My soldiers are pretty dead.”

However, the troops of the principality are almost unscathed. It was because I was standing in the back.

“This time we are leading the way. After all, a mace is better than a spear in the forest.”

Unlike the spear that gets in the way of the forest, the mace can blow away all the troublesome things.

The principality could be more active here than the imperial army.

Saying that my soldiers are dead is no different from telling the princess to take the lead.

But there is one catch.

“The forest of Voitra is vast.”

I don’t know where they are hiding.

Although they say they are tracking them, if they prepare traps and ambushes as they are now, they will taste humiliation again.

“Then you have to go quickly. If you miss it, you have to spend a lot of time and money again.”

“I think you should be careful. If he digs a trap with his sacred art and waits, it’s just as dangerous.”

They do not know the geography of the forest.

They don’t even know where the land is or where the swamp is, but if they chase after them recklessly and eventually become a long-term battle, they are the ones who get tired.

The Empire and the principality were reluctant to suffer from mere lizards.

I had to make sure.

Furthermore, this forest is the forest of Voitra.

A bizarre forest that all things did not die and rot away, but became a swamp and formed a forest.

You need to be careful.

“Be a little more careful…”

While talking.

The princess cut her off.

“Burn it.”

“Princess? The forest of Voitra extends to other forests. If you’re not careful, the whole forest in the area could burn. Besides, there are many swamps, so I don’t ride well.”

Why are you asking me to burn while forgetting such an obvious fact?

The forests of Voitra are damp.

It’s not even winter, it’s spring in full swing.

The frozen ground melts and retains moisture, and so do the forests and swamps spread over it.

‘As expected, the princess’s head is a mess…’

The moment she was about to laugh inwardly.

“If it doesn’t burn well, there will be smoke.”

“…okay.”

“And we didn’t just come here naked with nothing.”

After the princess finished speaking, the soldiers were pulling the cart as if they had waited.

“That one?”

What was in the oak barrel was black powder.

“Is it coal?”

“I pulverized coal. And he’s the one with the sacred art of the empire added to it. It’s not that I don’t have any special abilities. but.”

It is possible to burn this forest.

“When will this…”

“When I said it was in the forest, I ordered it to be brought. They’re not easygoing guys.”

Contrary to his usual temperament, his work was meticulous.

And if it’s for his own purpose, he’s even cold-hearted.

‘I don’t know who will take her, but unless it’s a decent person…’

No one will be able to handle her.

“What are you doing? burn it.”

The forest started to burn.

The roaring flames were blazing in the eyes of the princess.

Her red lips drew an arc.

* * *

Nod.

“Thank you very much.”

“Isn’t life like that? It helps like this and helps like that.”

“But he…”

With his beard braided in two long, like braided hair, Aldu recalled the strange feeling he had felt several hours ago.

‘Why are you honoring Serena, Philo, or Callis?’

Aldu felt it when Serena chased after Callius.

It was because they were sensitive to the sound of the ground, and even more so because their home was underground.

So, as soon as I felt a large army coming, I joined Serena outside the village, and from then on, I felt that her attitude was very strange.

Originally, they weren’t that polite. As an elf, Selena was originally of noble blood, so most races other than elves looked down on her.

It’s not that I have a bad personality, it’s just the environment I was born with.

And they said that Philomatur was originally a bad manners man.

For a long time, even when he first saw himself as an older man, he spoke rudely, but he was talking about him very carefully.

While writing honorifics.

Aldu was somehow saddened, but he didn’t show it.

“A new colleague.”

“Comrade…”

Serena was restless, but she didn’t notice because everyone was not interested in her. All their attention was on Colius.

At one side of the cave, he was surrounded by the light of a fairy that formed a shape.

“I’ve felt since yesterday that there are quite a few fairies here.”

To be honest, they are condensed energy that is difficult to even call a fairy.

They were hovering around Colius’ body as if they were being drawn.

Thanks to this, despite the dark dawn, his surroundings were bright, and he even looked divine, as if he were seeing the figure of a god.

Some of the dragon races trembled in fear when they saw Colius, while others wept with emotion.

“Are you the owner of the forest?”

“This person is…”

Serena is about to step out and say something. Colliers stopped.

“I am just a pilgrim.”

Realizing his intentions, Serena just stepped back for a moment.

“Then those gods…”

“They just borrowed the power of the fairies. Nothing special.”

Isn’t that just so special?

Philomatur cleared his throat as he continued to think.

“Large. On behalf of the clan, we thank you. Thanks to this, we minimized our damage and annihilated the enemy en masse.”

“It was just a combination of both sides.”

It’s not a lie.

It was because he had obtained the magical energy just in time and wanted to know what kind of power it would produce when combined with sacred arts.

Of course, the effect is outstanding.

If the holy stone was used, the power would have increased.

This is because the three landscapes have a structure in which power is amplified according to the potential and efficiency of the ghost.

‘The one I used was the corpse of another god.’

He only used a large number of other weapons that he had picked up while wandering around.

He set the mace in the swamp and hid the spear in the ground.

All they did was perform the oblivion of the three sights by bursting them all at once with a spell.

Mang-gyo is a combination of mang, which means net, and gyo, which means to teach.

teach using nets

That’s roughly what it means.

‘As written in Sullivan’s book, the one-time power of the scenery is good and the consumption of resources is low.’

In addition, if there was enough time, it was possible to develop simultaneous spells through preparation, and the usage was infinite depending on the use. Of course, there are also downsides.

The power varies greatly depending on the value of the artifact, and it takes a little time to prepare. It took longer than expected and was arduous to engrave a spell on a single artifact.

Although it was more powerful than using nature like Gyeongcheon.

‘If you divide the scale of strength, is it Gyeongin-Gyeongmul-Gyeongcheon?’

The pros and cons were all obvious.

If moderate power, efficiency, and speed are important, use Sky Sky, and if you want strong power instead of taking a long time, Light Water.

‘Even at the risk of physical damage, if you need the greatest strength, it’s a gentleman.’

Kyung-in who pays for his body.

It had excellent power and casting speed, but the cost was quite high.

When you’re in a hurry, don’t hesitate.

When preparing for battle, Gyeongin should be used only when preparing for the last.

Even so, Callius went on this pilgrimage and studied the Book of Sullivan and delved into sacred arts.

Sullivan’s secret skill that even the Pope imprisoned.

Because I wanted to learn fantasy circles.

In the Book of Sullivan, which could be said to be the true intention that she handed over, the spells of the Phantom Circle remained.

However, it was still an area of incomprehensibility to Colliers.

‘In fact, the sacred art I use is so weak that it was ambiguous.’

Sacred arts are relatively easily affected by the quality of holy power, and [Sullivian’s Book], which is a reconstructed version of the original sacred arts, had great power and potential for utilization, but it was difficult to use easily because the people who used it were like newbies.

Thanks to that, I’ve used it against bandits a few times, but this time I got a demonic power, and when I combined it with it, the power was three times stronger.

After confirming the Sullivan-style sacred art once again, Callius closed the open book and faced those who were looking at him.

“We can never abandon this place. For dragon races, the forest of Voitra is a natural fortress.”

We were having an argument.

“But old man. Although there is an advantage in geography, there are not only the Imperial Army but also the Duchy, and their spirit and numbers are not unusual. There is no reason why we should insist on staying here.”

“We cannot.”

The old people were stubborn.

A snort of laughter came out of it.

“To be conscious.”

“!”

I blinked my eyes.

If it were the others, they would have screamed right away, but didn’t they see the Shinwi just before?

“What does it matter when you die? The clan that you value so much and the forest that you consider your land are nothing but land, forest, and life if there are no dragons.”

Living comes first.

That’s what Colliers said.

“Who are you…!”

“Does it matter who I am? Rather than that, I think it will be more important to prepare a way for you to live.”

Roll through the mud and stay alive.

What would be the point if even those who would remember the honor die after watching the honor die?

“Where do we go after we have lost our place of life?”

“Wherever. The earth is everywhere, and the sky is everywhere as well. If you want to go, you have legs that can go anywhere, and you have two eyes that can see anything you want to see, so why hesitate?”

The elders swallowed their saliva.

‘You’re talking too much.’

‘As expected, he’s not an ordinary guy.’

‘It’s a language that feels like eons of time.’

The elders of the Yongin tribe shrank.

tribal chiefs.

Looking at Philomatur, he straightened his back.

“First of all…”

The moment I was about to say something.

His gaze turned upward.

“Chief Joe!”

“Oh my…”

The forest was burning.

The roaring forest was consumed by the heat, and black smoke engulfed the sky.

Are you saying that you are already surrounded? The elders sighed at the black smoke rising from all directions in the forest.

“Are you planning to burn down the forest!”

The fire is already out of control.

The fire burning with the momentum to burn the entire swamp was already at a level that could not be quenched by just pouring water on it.

“…”

The Yongin tribe in despair.

Meanwhile, at this point when even the expressions of Serena and Aldu, who came to help, harden,

“You’re making the forest angry.”

Serena, who has heard Colius talk to himself, suddenly senses something unusual.

The light of the fairies that had been hovering around him had all disappeared before he knew it.
