Swordmaster’s Youngest Son - Chapter 491

Chapter 491,

Chapter 137. Everyone had good plans (2), but

they decided to follow Joshua and the others slowly to the 2nd Magic Tower.

Ziple and Kingelo, who were in the following districts, were not in a situation where they were caught in battle or had to hide because they were both slaughtering and advancing.

The scene of destruction of corpses and blood continued. The vibration and noise of the battle continued to come from the back, and it seemed as if the whole building would collapse sooner or later.

It seems this time it’s our turn to be dragged by Joshua.

Dipus repeated Jin’s last words as they moved.

‘Yes, even the youngest can’t grasp everything perfectly.’

That fact wasn’t disappointing at all.

‘Joshua, that snake-like guy is also good at plotting and has the ability of a prophet… It’s amazing that you’ve grasped all of this flow so far. To be honest, I couldn’t even catch up.’

Dipus was troubled that he had not yet been of any other help.

-Second brother, I honestly had no intention of making this proposal to him. Because I think I can kill Joshua enough by myself. By the way, Sister Mary asked for a favor. Please don’t get hurt and come back like big brother.

I remembered what I heard from Jin right before the start of the operation.

If he continued like this, as the youngest had said, even if he really killed Joshua, he would only end up being carried on his back by Jin. As a fellow rider and as an older brother. Such a result was unacceptable to himself.

‘It should help. You shouldn’t make a picture where you have to step back unless you’re the youngest, like Barton did.’

Just as Jin said he didn’t know what Joshua’s confidence was right now, Difus didn’t immediately come up with a way.

However, it was important that he held on to his mind and will, which had been floating for a while in the excitement of being able to kill Joshua.

Difus, too, has rarely failed to do what he set out to do.

Soon, the party crossed the 19th and reached the 20th.

According to the structure diagram of the drying room, there was an emergency passage closest to the 2-horsepower tower.

Looking around, there were signs that Joshua and the Black Knight had already forcibly opened the destroyed passage.

“It seems that there was no battle in the youngest passage. Did Kingelo use the other passage?”

“Or they could have used the high-ranking commander’s iron gate.”

“That ability that was shown during the Black Emperor Terror, damn it. Except for Runkandel, everyone is outside the limits of the movement gate.”

“Bement has never shown such new technology or power.”

“No empire can compare to us. That’s why the Bement guys aren’t seen here yet. Anyway, I’m sick to my stomach. Let’s go out.”

Outside the passage was the Sota Desert.

Whii-!

A fierce, thick sandstorm covered the entire desert. Huge sandstorms standing hazy everywhere gave an ominous feeling.

Naturally, there was no trace of Joshua and the Black Knight’s movement from this point on. The footprints did not last for a moment and were covered with sand, and it was difficult to breathe without forming a protective shield with an aura.

environment.

Natural disasters or adverse conditions that are catastrophic to the general public did not have a fatal effect on most trained unmanned soldiers.

Even if they met a meaningless death from a falling rock, or even if they were struck by lightning with astronomical odds, soldiers of 8 stars and above did not have to die screaming.

Not to mention unmanned people like Jin and Difus who can be called superhuman.

The environment of the Sota Desert, which was now threatening the party, was far beyond that standard.

‘It’s no joke…’

It was a vicious environment that ordinary people could not endure even for a second. The heavy, sand-laden wind was clawing at the shield as sharp as a knife.

The entire desert seemed to be seething with a terrible destructive spell.

Actually it was.

‘These are large-scale barriers and linkage defense magics that are always maintained. 2To protect the Magic Tower from intruders.’

The 2 Magic Tower is one of the most important areas in Zipple. This is near the center of the Lutero Magic Federation, and right next to it is Draka, the home base.

This level of barriers and defensive magic was only natural.

Difus pointed his hand over there. The Tower of the White Nights was visible in the distant air, obscured by the sandstorm.

The problem was that the tower was not one.

“It’s an illusion barrier.”

“This is a phenomenon that has never been observed when scouting the whole time before you came.”

“As it is now, it must be a barrier that only manifests itself when entering from a certain route or entering a certain area. All defensive magic, including that fantasy barrier.”

A total of five towers.

All but one of them were fakes created by illusion barriers. And, as is the case with barriers like this, another trap will be triggered when it reaches the fake one.

This time, Murakan gestured toward the sky.

“Ai, I wondered what was so dark…Little Dippus. Look at them.”

The sky was filled with flying ships.

At first glance, it seemed like it could easily exceed a hundred feet. If there was a fear of Ziffle inside Jin and Murakan Difus, it would have been a sight that their legs would have loosened up.

And unlike the tower, I couldn’t be sure that the flying ships covering the sky like a school of whales were an illusion.

Considering the size of the dryer we just checked, if we assume that there are several more such dryers. It was a number that could exist.

In other words, it means that those ships may be finished mass-produced ships that came out to support the building.

“Shall I go to the sky and clean them up first? Check out which of those towers are real.”

“The moment you fly in your true form, all three of us are dead Murakan. And even at a glance, it’s over a hundred feet.”

Even if the ships were also fantasy like towers, flying in the middle of Lutero’s magic federation was crazy. If it had been that easy, there would have been no need to build an infiltration route.

“Ah, this is the specialty of that terrible talker.”

“Misha?”

“okay. I’m not good at secretly disabling barriers like this. I don’t know how to break it by force.”

“I can see the basis of Joshua’s confidence. He had a means of not being exposed to the barrier. Unlike me, since he set up the camp, he had been planning to rob the 2 Magic Tower, not the inside of the drying yard, so he must have prepared the necessary means in advance. With the power of that prophet.”

Difus said. Jin was thinking the same thing.

“And he wouldn’t have decided that we couldn’t get through this. It must have meant that he would use it if he followed me.”

Difus following the back story.

As the saying goes, Joshua had an intention to ‘actively utilize’ Jin’s group.

Since Jin’s party and Kingelo won’t be able to break through the barrier as fast as he who has the key, he naturally intends to use them as bait after turning the safe.

Even if you rob the safe without a trace through the key, the fact that there was a break-in and theft will eventually be revealed.

Of course, Zipple has to track down the culprit.

To do so, all the barriers near the 2 Mage Tower must be released to make it easier for the allies to search, and at that time, Jin and his party, who are still wandering in the barrier, become prime suspects on their behalf and are pursued intensively.

Among the paintings Joshua wanted, this development was included.

Knock! Difus gritted his teeth as he vaguely guessed the process.

I couldn’t let it go on.

“Mr. Murakan.”

“uh.”

“Why don’t you move forward while hitting it with your body? I will endure the traps as much as possible in the lead, so the youngest and Murakan-nim will follow Joshua as quickly as possible.”

“okay? Are you as strong as the first or second daughter of Runkandel?”

“It’s about the same level.”

“Do you know how destructive the traps will be?”

“As the youngest said last night, it’s just a moment when you need an adventure. Didn’t you say that even such a dangerous opportunity might never come again? We go into the 2nd Mage Tower, get the real information, and kill Joshua.”

“You’re strong, yes. Like it. Let’s dedicate ourselves to overcoming the crisis.”

Murakan, who said as if he agreed, glanced at Jin. As always, the decision was meant to be yours.

Jin flatly refused with an attitude that there was no need to worry.

“It’s not possible. That’s a last resort. If, by any chance, Brother Difus is caught in a trap, the power loss is too great and our position is exposed due to the activation of the barrier, there is really no answer.”

“I knew you would say that, maknae. Do you have any other means?”

Sreung!

Bradamante’s blade came out of the scabbard.

“…I’ve been through this terrible desert once before. There is a sword I got along with the realization at that time, and I think this might work.”

Spirit Sword Type 1 Soul Slash.

Jin passed through the last gate of the Great Desert of Mithra with that same sword. Even though Ziple’s barrier and magic were great, it didn’t seem to be superior to Solderlet’s test.

Even when the remnants of the former Ghost Corps Seigal family attempted suicide in the nameless desert of the eastern part of the Cascal Empire after forming a blood alliance with the Ghost Corps, the soul slashing was effective.

woo woo-.

Bradamante was dyed black.

“If the spirit sword doesn’t work, then I’ll mobilize all my knowledge to solve the barriers and magic spells myself. If that doesn’t work, then let’s consider putting older brother first.”

Jin closed his eyes and began to concentrate.

The mind to cut, the belief that it can be cut, and the will to cut through. The resolution and realization he had gained in the Great Desert of Mithra seemed to pierce his entire body and brain.

Soon, a smile spread across Jin’s lips just before he swung the sword.

It was because a new and profound sense that was difficult to describe, as if he had already glimpsed the future and the results, was spreading through the tip of his knife.

The barrier and magic were cut off with a single, gently thrusting sword.

Every time Jin swung his sword, the sandstorm died down and the illusions that covered the tower were washed away.

Jin continued to wield Bradamante until all of that was erased, and it looked like he was doing a sword dance.

When I opened my eyes again, I felt refreshed as if I had taken a bath.

The terrible sandstorm and storm disappeared like a lie. I could see the White Night Tower standing alone in the middle of the morning twilight with a gentle wind blowing.

The Midnight Tower stood at a much closer distance than the illusion had covered.

“The moment when the second older brother has to risk his life for the family will not be limited to something like this.”

Having said that, Jin waited for Dipus to answer. Thinking that I owed him properly.

But for some reason, I didn’t hear an answer for several seconds.

Instead, there was the sound of Murakan clicking his tongue.

“Hmm… Jeop. one. Was that all real…?”

Difus was momentarily stunned and unable to answer the fact that the flying ships filling the sky were all ‘real’.
