Swordmaster’s Youngest Son - Chapter 798
Chapter 798,
Chapter 197. Enemy tribe (2)
“You said their stronghold is also underground, right?”
[To be precise, it’s about halfway between the underworld and the surface world.]
“Since you said there are a total of five forts… that’s a big deal. Even if it’s halfway between the ground and the underground, aren’t they all in an area deeper than Ameris-sama?”
[Yes, Jin. You can’t destroy the whole world just to find their home base, so you have to track down those who are active on the ground.]
All enemy strongholds originally existed on the ground. It had sunk underground because of the seal Ameris had placed in its heyday.
[Suddenly, I recall how fiercely the enemy tribe resisted when this body was sealed. They sank underground and gathered the remaining manpower after being sealed, and built a space transport device that leads to the outside. Now, when the seals of the great battle kings are released, the fort will come back to the ground.]
“How high is the enemy’s technological prowess?”
[This body came to Tikan and lived with you guys, personally felt it and heard the general explanation of the present world. According to Ameris, in ancient times when
there was a sun god, ultra-long-distance communication and teleportation were very common and natural.
The flying ship was also not the exclusive property of the giant forces as it is now, and the biggest symbol of showing off the power was the aerial fortress. There were mortals who had aerial fortresses that could freely go and conquer all continents on the ground as well as underground.
While Ameris explained, Jin recalled the moment in Lapla Rosa where the main hall of the Tossinden was separated from other buildings and was wealthy.
‘I wonder if the main hall of Toshinjeon is also a trace of the aerial fortress technology that existed at that time.’
When rebuilding the main hall that was destroyed after the Great War, Jin and the other brothers mostly played a role close to simple labor.
Only Boras, the best technician of the Ming Dynasty, was entrusted with a task that required a high level of technical understanding. But even Boras said he couldn’t understand all the techniques applied to the main hall of the Temple of God.
[Among them, the one with the most outstanding technology was the enemy. The Qingming people were next, but there was a gap. However, the Qingming people offset that with their overwhelming individual strength. The average combat power of the Qingming tribe was much higher. It was a battle between technology and power. Of course, the pinnacle or those who came close to it were similar.]
Ameris took it for granted that the science and civilization of that time had not continued to the present.
[In the Old Age, everything that immortals and mortals accomplished before the death of the sun god inevitably loses its meaning from the moment the world loses its integrity and becomes divided. There was a constant great war between the forces trying to defend death and resurrection, and this body was the center of it. After me and the protagonists of the war were sealed, the world must have gone through destruction and reconstruction several times.]
She came to the conclusion that civilizations had been born and disappeared many times in the world. Even after his own death, there must have been at least one destruction.
Therefore, the present Myeongwangjok are the descendants left behind by the sealing of the Jeokmyeongjok and the extinction of the Qingmingjok, and the transcendent technological devices that are occasionally found are the remnants of the first-generation super-high civilization that went through circulation.
“Do you think underground will be like that too?”
[of course. Those who were sent underground when the world was divided in the first place… are destined to be buried forever.]
“That’s a little harsh. Why did some go above ground and some go underground? Was that also chosen by the existence of the sun god? Normally, people would think that ground is better, but I think I felt a sense of resistance.”
At Enya’s question, Ameris shrugged.
[The expression is just burial, but the underground world has a better environment than the ground. There is also night and day. It is not just a dark and somber world as you think. Rather, those who worship the sun god have better points because the altar is closer.]
“Aha! There is night and day underground.”
[This body believes that the underground is fundamentally responsible for the war between the ground and the underground. If they had accepted the new order, if they hadn’t crossed the surface, there would be no reason for you to go through all this trouble right now. However, those who disturbed the world for the resurrection of the sun god must also be escaping their fate as mortals.]
Ameris’ gaze reached Jin.
[The monsters who struggled to escape their destiny for so long are the enemies of this body, you, and everyone here.] “
However, the value of the struggle is not determined only by the amount of time that has passed. No matter how long they’ve struggled, at the root lies a weak-willed desire to recapture the utopia of looking to the sun god for what was lost. If you fight me without knowing that fact and not being able to overcome it. It is bound to break.”
Ameris’ eyes widened at Jin’s confident answer.
Every word in his words was sincere, without any fabrication. To Jin, there was no difference between the enemies of the enemy, the enemies of the underworld that had not yet been revealed, or the existing enemies.
[Solderett made a good choice of mortals. But don’t belittle it. When the seals of the enemy clans begin to be lifted, the world will change.]
“The appearance of the 5th force following the remnants of the Runkandel and Barmal Alliance Zipline Kinzelo Bement Imperial Family.”
5th force.
Now, only five people have been resurrected, and two of them have been killed by Jin, but the enemy has enough potential to be called that.
Who will be the first enemy to hunt after starting ground activities?
Words about him passed between colleagues for a while.
[It is not just an expression that this body refers to the enemy’s ground activities as hunting. They use the blood of life as their main nourishment. There’s even a story that says the reason the heart is red is because of it.]
“Blood…?”
[It will take a lot of blood to break the seal. The stronger the individual’s blood, the more effective it is.]
“Then, there must be a high possibility of indiscriminate slaughter.”
[To do so, there is no means to transport that much life or blood, and the blood of livestock or untrained mortals has no effect in the first place. So, even in their heyday, the enemy tribes did not kill those that were not worthwhile. Like beasts of prey, we hunted only as much as we needed.]
At those words, Jin sighed inwardly.
No matter how many times I fight with the resurrected enemies, I am confident that I can crush them, but there is no easy way to stop them from suddenly appearing somewhere in the world and quickly slaughtering civilians and falling out. Numerous people had already died in such a massacre during the Battle of the Goddess.
[Besides, if you kill too many lives, how will you carry that many corpses and blood to the fort? The return technique is not omnipotent. It requires a lot of money to use your own kind as a catalyst to escape from you, but you can’t use it for worthless blood.] “Isn’t it also possible to use the
subspace storage, a function that Dr. Kwaul took from the bracelet?”
[The sub-space warehouse also has space limitations. Simart, a first-class Tuwang, still has room for a flying ship, but he won’t move directly because the seal is broken. Therefore, the only ones moving are the two remaining 2nd-class Tuwangs, and their warehouse size is at most about 30 adult humans.] The
Jeokmyeongjok, unlike the Qingmyeongjok and the current Myeongwang clan, was a society in which everything from one to ten was determined by class. Even the size of the subspace warehouses that can be owned by class is different.
Fortunately, Ameris had quite a lot of memories about them, probably because the target she fought until the end was the enemy.
“Ameris said that there would be no more than 1,000 enemies per stronghold. To awaken and unseal their mad hearts… the blood of about sixty ordinary humans seems meaningless.”
[Jin] If it’s a human like you, even if only one person wakes everyone up, it’ll be full, but hmm… Yes, Jet. You can think of it based on Jet.]
“Ugh me?”
[In my opinion, the amount of blood needed per normal warrior is about two or three jets.]
Jet was looking at his current 6-star skills (thanks to learning from Gilly from time to time). In the world of superhumans and monsters, he was infinitely shabby, but by universal standards, he was immensely strong.
“Then, with three or so warriors of that level, can you defeat one enemy common warrior?”
[Um… Just don’t even dream about that, Jet. You are an informant, not a combatant. If you are three, the size of your power itself may be similar to that of an ordinary warrior, but the enemy names are the Myungwang family. It can’t even be an opponent.]
“Then, from the point of view of the enemy, the best land to supply life with jet-level combat power is…”
Most of them had to be in the realm of a huge force. Small kingdoms are 7 stars at the level of the captain of the royal guard, and average knights and mages rarely exceed 5 stars.
Suddenly.
The name of a region flashed in Jin’s mind.
“The Land of the Beasts…?”
Kingelo’s Territory Land of beastmen.
As the name suggests, prisoners live there. Among them, the most numerous individuals were the fighting races, the Jeokhojok and the Baekrangjok.
Even the Red Tiger Tribe and the White Lang Tribe instinctively gave up fighting when they first saw Jin who had gained a mad heart in the past, peeing like a frightened dog. Even now, the rank-and-file warriors of the two fighting races cannot even look straight into Jin’s deadly eyes.
If they react the same to their enemies.
There could be no easier prey than that. Even the Red Tiger Tribe and the Baenglang Tribe were ‘combat races’, so they all had 6 or more combat abilities based on their adult body.
“They will definitely target the land of beastmen. If I am the enemy, there is no better hunting ground.”
[Ah, the land of the beasts. It was said that there were people of the Red Tiger Tribe and the White Lang Tribe. Although it is presumed to be a hybrid of the lower races that existed at the time. It must be perfect for the enemy to hunt.]
* * *
As Jin predicted.
The Red Tiger Tribe and the White Rang Tribe, who were patrolling the outskirts of the Land of Beasts, were already facing Andolin and Ozen.
And the prisoners were trembling in a state of fascination at the sight of the red heart.
“Who are you…! Why are you doing this?”
“under? There really were such mongrels. Watching until just now, the beasts of the non-combatant race were often harassed. Show us that kind of killing. So that our compatriots can take in more throbbing life!”
It was the moment when the ghost story of enemy names began among the prisoners of Kingelo.
