The Count’s Youngest Son Is A Player - Chapter 316
Episode 316
‘Hmm. ‘You have an impatient personality.’
We face the Tower of the Demon World again.
Raoul frowned slightly after checking the details.
Three people have already entered the tower, which is limited to 15 people.
I had a rough idea of who it was.
It must be Noel, the leader of the Holy Empire’s warrior party, and his party.
Considering that I arrived here after conquering the 15th and final demon temple and just reorganizing.
‘It looks like they waited for the external barrier to open and entered right away.’
It seems that the position of coordinator was quite coveted.
Considering that Noel and his group cleared out three demon temples, they must not have been lacking in skills.
But there was something they didn’t know.
“We’ll probably have to climb the tower in different places once we get in.”
“It means that from here on, individual strength is also important.”
“It must be just as dangerous.”
Two people who accept Raoul’s words.
It was his father, the Marquis Melvin de Ashton, and the swordsman Marquis de Templeton.
Since they are two people who are not left out when discussing the pinnacle of Connect Continent’s nothingness, they also qualified as coordinator candidates.
“Are you sure you want to go in? For the sake of the kingdom and family, it would be better for you to stay…”
“Isn’t that a story that has already ended? “Actually, I feel like I want to stop you, but I can’t.”
Marquis Melvin patted Raoul on the shoulder with a regretful expression.
“Yes, those who have power are given appropriate responsibilities. “Should we get caught up in something that might decide the fate of the continent?”
A firm belief was also felt in the swordsman’s voice.
“Of course, Raul and you will be able to do it. But we never know what if our help will be needed. And don’t be convinced that the demons of the demon world are the only enemies. There must be some whose goal is not the peace of the continent, but the power of God itself.”
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
Raoul humbly accepted the swordsman’s advice.
The faces of the swordsman and Marquis Melvin, who were looking at Raoul, had expressions of pride.
The joint training of superhumans began after the end of the kingdom’s civil war.
Through the training, which has already lasted for nearly three years, we have honed each other’s skills, and it was Raul who achieved the most remarkable growth in the process.
Although it was only a sparring match, he had long since caught up with Marquis Melvin and the swordsman with his sword skills alone.
If we include Raoul’s other abilities, we can guess who has the best skills.
‘The future of Connect is now in the hands of Raoul. Our role is…’
‘We need to get rid of those who might be holding Raoul’s ankles.’
The two swordsmen strengthened their resolve.
Raoul, realizing once again that he could not stop them, opened his mouth.
“Then I wish you luck. If any problems arise, please proceed according to the plan prepared in advance.”
“Okay, good luck. I’m sorry for putting such a heavy responsibility on you, so young. But please do your best for the continent.”
“of course! “If we can’t clean up this place anyway, all that’s left will be destruction.”
The swordsman smiled reassuringly and entered the interior of the tower first.
“I hope you don’t overexert yourself to gain the power of a god. Even without that, aren’t you strong enough and have a clan and family that will support you reliably? “Be considerate.”
“Your father must return safely too! “Because you haven’t competed with me properly yet.”
“ha ha ha. okay. “After this is over, let’s have a proper competition somewhere.”
After hugging Raoul tightly and patting him on the back, Marquis Melvin took a deep breath and stepped into the tower.
When Raoul turned his head, he saw his trusty colleagues and subordinates in the distance.
Raoul saluted them all by putting their fists to their chests, and then turned around and saluted them.
‘Shall we go in and see how many amazing people are waiting for us?’
Raoul stretched out his hand and crossed the tower’s barrier.
* * *
Faaat.
With a flash, Raoul’s new model fell from the air.
‘Huh. ‘Awful smell!’
Raoul wrinkled his nose and looked around.
A dark cave.
There were faint luminescent stones scattered throughout.
Clap.
A sticky, unpleasant feeling under your feet.
‘You stink.’
A swamp of filth and blood spread on the floor.
And what was piled up like a garden around were unidentifiable lumps of flesh.
This space, filled with rotten me, felt like a dump where dead bodies were being dumped.
Weapons began pouring out from behind Raoul, who was looking around for a moment.
Clap la la rock!
He spoke quietly as hundreds of weapons were formed above the cave.
“Why don’t you stop looking at the liver and start slowly? “You certainly didn’t expect to fall into such a clumsy trap, did you?”
But there was still no movement.
‘Well, if that’s the case.’
Raoul raised the corners of his mouth and slowly moved his hands.
Pabababat! Quagwang!
The spinning weapons scattered in all directions, hitting the surrounding flesh and cave walls.
And the telekinetic power swept through Raoul’s body like a tempest, blowing away the dirt and blood around him.
Druddudduddduk.
It felt like the entire cave was shaking.
Whoa!
Kiek!
With cries coming from all directions, something huge began to rise up.
Abomination.
A corpse giant created by randomly combining the corpses of humans and monsters.
And among the dozens of Abominations, flesh golems made of disgusting flesh and blood golems made of blood appeared one after another.
“hmm. Is this so boring? “I can’t even warm up.”
As Raoul clicked his tongue to cheer himself up, the army of weapons flew around the inside of the cave and began cleaning.
Crunchy.
A piece the size of a fingernail was crushed in Raoul’s hand.
At the same time, the last remaining body of Abomination flowed to the floor like melting ice cream.
‘Golem-type monsters are like gum if you can find the core.’
Of course, if he were a normal master-level swordsman, he would have used up his stamina in the endless barrage of monsters, but he was not a good match with Raoul.
While Raoul was just watching, over a thousand monsters were wiped out.
Moreover, the core, which was the medium for summoning, was completely destroyed.
Perhaps this place has now become nothing more than a garbage dump.
‘Are you feeling a little sick?’
Raoul smiled slightly, remembering the summoner who was watching from somewhere.
‘Then for now.’
It was clear that it was not a friendly place with directions or signposts like a quest.
Raoul lifted himself up, looking upwards where he could feel a strong force.
Let’s go!
As the army of weapons plowed through one part of the ceiling, a hole opened upward.
‘Whether I take the stairs or through the hole, that’s my choice.’
Raoul flew up toward the hole.
* * *
‘That’s annoying.’
Raoul’s expression became serious for the first time in a long time.
It’s already been a day since I entered the Tower of Demon World.
But the final destination was still not visible.
What greeted Raoul as he came up from the pile of corpses was a group of demonic beasts.
A group of strange monsters resembling monkeys were replicating themselves like amoebas and grabbed Raoul’s ankles.
If it had a nucleus, it would have been dealt with at once, but since it wasn’t that type of monster, in the end we had no choice but to steadily reduce its number.
Fortunately, it did not multiply infinitely and fell to its knees under the ferocious teeth of the weapon army.
More problematic than the monster was the passage itself.
As if the first cave was just a preview, an extremely strong barrier was formed in the passage from the second floor.
Raoul’s attempt to climb through the ceiling ended in vain and he had no choice but to follow the path.
What stands in Raoul’s way is a literal barrage of supplies.
The entire passage was so full of monsters that every time I took a step, I had to build a mountain of monster corpses.
There were many types of things that appeared that were more persistent than strong.
The most annoying thing is the soul type monster.
He was an annoying opponent because the curses and hallucinatory screams he made as he died gradually tried to erode his mind.
‘If there wasn’t a label, it would have been more difficult.’
Because the label responded appropriately by blocking sound, blocking odor, and creating a barrier, the fatigue was much less.
‘It’s even more embarrassing because the intention is so obvious.’
In the end, the intention is to take away the intruder’s stamina and energy by wasting time.
No matter how strong Raoul was against multiple enemies, moving the weapon also consumed mental power.
Raoul, who was climbing the tower without stopping, suddenly showed some fatigue on his face.
“great job. But I think we’re almost there now, right?”
Ravel, who had been helping Raoul recover by sprinkling fairy dust on his head, adjusted his glasses and said.
“Are you sure that’s the case?”
Until now, it had been a completely unrefined natural cave or wasteland-like terrain.
What appeared before Raoul’s eyes was a hallway made of neatly cut marble.
Maybe now would be the real start.
And their predictions were not wrong.
“Hoo. It arrived sooner than expected. “I guess the rumors aren’t exaggerated?”
A small square beyond the marble hallway.
There was a group of people waiting for Raoul there.
They are wearing black armor with a dragon symbol on it.
They were the knights of the Kranen Empire.
‘I wondered where they were hiding, but I never thought they would be gathered here…’
Raoul’s expression hardened slightly.
This is because the people who blocked his path were not just imperial knights.
‘Imperial Horse Commander. And many superhumans.’
I was surprised because he didn’t show up on the battlefield at all, but I didn’t know he was really here.
I knew that the Empire and the Demon World were connected, but I never thought the Empire’s reach would reach this final gateway.
But there was someone who caught Raoul’s attention more than that.
A dark-haired young man is leaning back near the passageway beyond the Imperial Army, looking this way with an interested expression.
‘Who is it?’
There was almost no apparent strength.
No, that was even weirder.
For an ordinary person to stand leisurely like that in such a dangerous place.
Did he feel the look in Raoul’s eyes?
The young man grinned and pointed his finger at the imperial troops.
‘First of all, the enemy in front of you comes first?’
I was concerned about how calm he seemed, but he wasn’t wrong.
“I never thought I would find my place to die. You have courage, but you are stupid. Or was it that ‘divine power’ that you coveted so much?”
The Imperial Demon Commander, who seemed to be their leader, looked down at Raoul and said.
Raoul snorted and accepted.
“well. Is it different from what I thought? “It’s so clear whose grave this will be.”
At the same time, when he smiled, the imperial superhumans standing behind the magician looked dumbfounded and took out their weapons.
Raoul glanced at them, then suddenly clapped his hands and said.
“Oh, it’s you. “It was a fun toy.”
Whilick.
A lump of blood thrown by Raoul landed at the feet of the hooded imperial wizard.
“You’re a fearless kid. “I will personally cut your corpse and add it to the collection.”
The 8th Circle necromancer declared in an eerie voice, but Raoul shrugged.
“Oh yeah? “Why not give it a try?”
That guy wasn’t Raoul’s job anyway.
He had strong helpers.
That was the end of the conversation.
As the Imperial Demon Lord walked towards Raoul holding his sword, about twenty Imperial Superhumans also began to approach.
And Raoul also prepared for battle.
Clap la la rock!
The inventory opened and an army of weapons poured out.
Faaat.
Three power armors possessed by Cardenas pointed their long swords at the imperial army.
Cuguaidae.
An enormous whirlpool gathered above Raoul’s head and gradually grew in size.
Ravel’s 8-circle wind magic was targeting the imperial army.
“Go!”
With Raoul’s hand gesture, legions of weapons imbued with aura began pouring down on the imperial army.
