The Cook of a Perished World - Chapter 216
Episode 216: Subjugation Battle (2)
“For the Legion’s victory…!”
-!&[email protected]&*($!!!
Quaaaaang!!!
A knight was blocking the way.
A warrior charges towards him.
A powerful knight was blocking the path of many soldiers by himself.
Those who were watching were the battle They thought it would last quite a long time, but…
Contrary to their expectations,
the battle between the two ended very quickly.
-!?
With a movement so light that it was hard to believe that he was engulfed in madness,
he dodged the sword swung by the knight and went inward. A warrior digging in.
[email protected]$ ^#[email protected]…!?
The fist roughly rips the knight’s armor.
Despite being engulfed in madness.
-They are not living knights.
Warriors… In his head, Corporal Jeon Gwang-
il recalled a story told by a monster.
-The souls of dead knights are tied to that armor.
-That’s why it’s an extremely difficult enemy. It doesn’t have any weak points, and no matter how hard you hit the armor, it won’t hit you. Because it cannot cause much damage.
There is only one
way to neutralize the knight.
-It is a powerful soul, but the soul cannot exert any physical force without a medium.
-If you dismantle the armor that binds the soul, where will it go? The lost soul will disappear by itself.
Let’s tear off the armor roughly.
Damn it – the enemy…
From the black shadow inside.
Things like the organs of the soul begin to tear out along with the armor.
Eventually .
Sigh!]
It’s hard to believe that it came from the knight in that heavy-looking armor.
A tearing scream filled the battlefield.
[You have gained experience.]
A powerful enemy that even the soldiers of the legion struggled with.
It could easily be called a boss monster. A legitimate monster.
It was sorted out in just a few tens of seconds.
“Ugh.”
The fragments of the armor were shattered and scattered in all directions.
The warrior who spat on it opened his mouth as if nothing had happened.
“What next?”
“.. “He said it’s all next time.”
“Where is the strong enemy…!”
He spoke in such a harsh tone that I couldn’t believe it came from his normally gentle mouth.
That was then.
The surrounding soldiers could notice.
‘The madness has not been lifted.’
Still surrendering to madness.
A large warrior who moves in search of enemies.
Each time he appears on the battlefield.
The lives of the powerful enemy that had been giving the soldiers a hard time disappear one by one.
‘mi. crazy.’
‘Is that a person? It’s a boss monster…!’
The soldiers who followed were astonished.
On the one hand, I was relieved.
“Cruk. next.”
“This is next!”
Such a strong soldier.
Because I know that he is a soldier who is more loyal to the Corps than anyone else.
* * *
The devil’s minions.
There was only one command in their minds.
[The souls of the contractees belong to the master.]
[Thoroughly protect them so that others do not steal them.]
An order given by their greedy master.
Minions to respond to the command.
They were rushing towards those who attacked them.
Meanwhile.
-Really…?
[Hell Hound]
One of the minions.
I stopped walking.
-…Okay!
The sight of the monster that had stopped walking was extremely hideous.
A vicious fire continued to rage all over his body, and his entire body was covered in burn marks.
Dark red flames continue to bloom from the eyes and mouth, centered on the face.
Where the eyeballs should be, a grotesquely distorted eyeball continued to burn.
A powerful monster called the watchdog of hell.
The reason it was nicknamed the watchdog was not simply because it was strong.
His eyeballs were distorted and he lost his vision.
Smell, hearing, touch, etc.
This is because all kinds of organs for detecting enemies were ridiculously developed.
and.
That sense of a sentinel…
wandering
around the battlefield alone.
An enemy object was discovered.
‘Prey.’
The enemies formed a group and attacked.
Enemies that organically connect with each other and gradually entangle them.
Subjugating them was not easy even for the minions.
but.
The object discovered now is different.
I don’t know for what reason.
An enemy who foolishly wanders the battlefield alone.
-Kruk…!
The hellhound called to his kin.
To teach foolish prey a lesson.
“hmm?”
Let’s head to the place where we can feel the presence.
What was there.
A man leisurely walking between destroyed buildings.
Except for his cool-headed expression, he looks like an ordinary human.
Is there anything a little unusual?
[Salmoneus eating lightning]
On that shoulder.
Could it be that it had a yellow snake on it?
-Guoooo…!
Thankfully, there is no reason to just let an enemy move alone.
Hell’s sentinels numbering in the dozens.
They rushed in to hunt the man.
If you are an ordinary human being.
Attacks that were so intense that even bones could not be left behind in an instant.
but.
The man was not an ordinary human being either.
“Salmoneus.”
-Kiluruk.
Let the man call the snake’s name in a friendly voice.
The transparent snake responds by making a happy cry.
Around the wizard’s body.
A blue electric current exploded.
Lightning-type magic.
It is one of the most powerful firepower attributes among magicians with wide-area attacks.
But it was not without drawbacks.
[Lightning Spear],
[Lightning Bolt], etc.
Most of the magic that lightning wizards handle is linear.
You have no choice but to be helpless against monsters coming from all directions.
so that.
Lightning-type wizards are always protected by the vanguard.
Firepower has been projected from the safe rear…
but that only goes so far.
For a typical wizard.
“A million volts.”
A man says a playful word.
The blue electric current flowing through the body was concentrated into the man’s hand.
-Kruk….
That current.
The yellow snake took it and ate it.
It is made of lightning.
so that.
A snake that is free in any form when it comes to dealing with lightning.
“Radial.”
-Kirururururururuk!
yet.
Powerful lightning spreads out in all directions around the yellow snake’s body!
I dig it, I dig it!
-Kruk…!
-Keeeeeng….
A lot of monsters were attacking him.
Its body is roasted golden brown by lightning.
The limitations of lightning magic were clear.
Only for Sergeant Lee Min-jae.
It was as if there were no such limits.
Each time he unleashes his magic.
The number of monster corpses increased by dozens.
“hmm. “Is this building where monsters gather?”
Even.
Let’s place our hands on the building and mutter.
“Million Volt Occupation Type.”
-Kikluk!
It’s a joke!
[Acquire experience points.]
Powerful lightning spreads throughout the building.
It inflicts fatal damage to the monsters lurking within.
“…What is that?”
A man who was already considered the strongest in the army when it came to wide-area attacks.
Of course, I have passed level 30 and completed my job advancement to the next level.
A well-matched family member who can inflate one’s abilities several times.
Now, there is a demonic beast that handles all types of lightning as if it were his own body.
Let’s go!
Sergeant Lee Min-jae…
had completely gone beyond the limits of an ordinary wizard.
* * *
“I thought they wouldn’t be ordinary soldiers, but to this extent.” As
someone who is watching…
or rather, being attacked by them.
It was truly a hellish sight.
That wasn’t all.
Taang….
“This gunshot again…!”
At that sound.
The awakened people gathered in one room started a match.
The sound of gunshots coming from afar.
Every time that gunshot rings out.
Because there was a huge hole in the body of a monster!
‘Sniper…’
The sniper attack itself is not strange.
It is natural that there are snipers among soldiers.
The physical abilities of the awakened are beyond imagination.
The same goes for vision.
Even for awakened people who are not very strong, their eyesight is often superior to that of old Mongolians.
The eyesight of high-level awakened people is naturally better than that.
so that.
This cannot help but be absurd.
“How far is it that you can’t even see it?”
Of course, the gunshot was barely audible because it was the awakened people’s hearing.
Even though the direction from which the gunfire was coming was clear.
Even though a telescope was used.
None of the contractors here.
They couldn’t even find the sniper’s shadow.
“This is nonsense…”
A contractor holding a telescope.
The moment he took his face away from the telescope in a cold sweat.
Taang –
Another gunshot rings out in the distance.
Clink!
“…!?”
The telescope the man was holding in his hand.
The glass bead broke.
‘…I’m crazy.’
Until a few seconds ago.
The very glass he had his eyes on.
What this means:
Just one.
“Oh, we were looking for you…”
“I knew.”
That moment.
All of the contractors gathered there realized one thing.
‘If only that sniper had made up his mind…’
Everyone here.
I guess I would no longer be a person of this world.
* * *
That wasn’t the end of the Legion’s attack.
Kwasik-
Crunch Crunch….
“What is that crazy woman?”
“…More monster than monster.”
Chewing on the devil’s minions whole.
A white-haired witch who changes into a form similar to the one she ate the moment she swallowed a minion down her throat.
She continues to sweep the battlefield.
[Great Power Diamond]
“Huh!”
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
“The barricade….”
“Did you split it in one blow?”
Despite its small and dwarf-looking body.
The defense facilities that the awakened people put so much effort into were demolished in one blow.
Crazy soldiers also existed.
“It looks like the inside of that building is full of monsters!”
“Request for tank support?”
“The road leading here is blocked by monsters, so it might be difficult…”
A bit of a crisis, too.
It wasn’t like it wasn’t there, though.
“Okay… next.”
“The former corporal cleared the way!”
“Tanks entering!”
At the same time, the powerful monsters blocking the main road were cleared away.
Trams entered through that road.
“Starboard 35 degrees… open fire!”
Kwaang!!!
Let the tanks that entered inside show their firepower.
The entire building filled with monsters collapses.
“The obstruction has been removed!”
“Start supporting rear fire forces!”
The building that was blocking the view disappeared.
A long-distance firearm that the Legion is proud of.
Its firepower sweeps the battlefield without any hindrance.
With humans who made a contract with the devil.
Powerful monsters come down to support them.
but.
Hunting monsters.
Always human…
no.
To be exact.
“Area B-3 cleared.”
“15 minutes! “We’re entering!”
This was the role of the soldiers.
* * *
Soldiers continue to subdue the minions and begin to enter the center.
Its strength was beyond the imagination of the contractors.
“…gulp.”
Contractors watching the battle from afar.
There was silence between them.
“That and that.”
“Aren’t we really going to end up here?”
“First of all, we need to secure an escape route…!”
Although the monsters are protecting it.
The situation is that the protection is being breached very quickly.
Head of contractors.
Wonjun thought as he watched the battle.
‘Strength is strength, but you deal with it as if you know the information about your minions…’
The number of monsters is considerable.
There are huge buildings and barricades.
In a battle like this, the defensive side inherently has an advantage over the attacking side.
Originally, it would have been normal not to be pushed around this easily.
but.
‘Those tanks… and the strange spiked vehicles are the problem.’
A tank boasting tremendous firepower.
And the combat vehicles that act as mobile barricades for soldiers as they move.
Those were the problems.
While destroying our defense facilities.
The defense facilities on the other side were gradually advancing.
‘It would have been normal for those minions to be able to destroy even a tank.’
In other words, if only those tanks and combat vehicles could be destroyed.
The battle may turn out to be more favorable to the minions than expected.
The problem is….
‘A small number of powerful people who make it impossible to even approach that tank.’
To destroy tanks.
When powerful minions come forward.
Powerful soldiers appear from nowhere.
He demonstrated strength that was incomparable to that of other soldiers and defeated the monsters trying to destroy the tank.
When looking at this situation.
Wonjun came to one conclusion.
‘If only those few strong people could be eliminated. ‘You can easily block it with your minions.’
and. There is
a minion who can eliminate even those few strong enemies…
‘There is… one…’
lately.
Even though they were not summoned directly.
A being who was summoned from somewhere and came to visit them.
That being had a power that was of a different order of magnitude from those given to it by the devil without any compensation.
Especially…
when it comes to annihilating an existence.
A monster with power that cannot even be compared to other minions.
The black shadow stirs and rises.
[Target for annihilation…searching.]
A servant of the devil.
A being who travels between multiple dimensions and inflicts merciless death.
[Spirit of Darkness]
It was a spirit of darkness.
