Novel The Max Level Hero has Returned! - Chapter 557
Chapter 557:
The elders were all imprisoned in the prison of the gun headquarters without resistance.
On the contrary, a funny reality occurred in which some of those imprisoned in prison were released on the contrary.
The elders imprisoned in the prison must have been caught quietly because they had other thoughts, but I didn’t interfere much with their choice.
“Including Elder Sharth, Elder Slim and Elder Pat.”
There is one old man with a beard, one old man with a very different physique, and one old man who is fat.
The number of them was three, and the reason why they were in front of me was simple.
“It was also posted in the report. The Knights must work in two directions.”
“I heard the situation from Clomen on the way back. Whatever the problem, I’ll have to deal with the outside now. Tell me.”
Unlike the other elders who struggled not to let go of their authority, these were not the elders of today, but those who were imprisoned.
therefore.
They were people who fell into a trap and were imprisoned after colliding with the elders who refused to change while remaining complacent in the current reality.
“Elder Charse has helped you in the past.”
“Before?”
“War against vampires. At that time. He was the one who helped the Reinforce Alpha Knights conduct independent guerrilla warfare.”
At his words, I bowed my head to a bearded old man named Sharth.
“Thanks for your help.”
“No. But… I heard that you have the Shinto Shrine Brünak… Is it true?”
In response to his question, I took out the Shinto Shrine Brunak once again from the subspace and showed it to them.
“Oh… this is…”
“Is this the weapon used by the shrine and the symbol of the Knights, Brunak?”
“It’s the first time I’ve seen the real thing. But if the will of the ancestors who came out of the judgment window acknowledged it, it would be right.”
“It’s an old story, but thank you for keeping the tradition alive.”
Having said that, he shook his head.
“Originally, we would make a decision after gathering the information sent by each Knights and having a meeting, but I heard that the current situation is not so relaxed.”
“Yes. The Knights currently need to do two things. Take out some of the main troops and disguise them as mercenaries. Then, go with me to the capital of the Kontas Empire.”
The power of the Knights is considerable. The Kontas Empire also had many strong people, but it was far from enough.
Above all, in terms of stealth, they are on a different level from the strong men of other empires.
“The Illuminati are a force from another dimension. If they start to riot like you and I will die, then step in and subdue them.”
“And what about the rest?”
“Do you know where the ruined knights branch is?”
At my question, Elder Sharth nodded.
And after that, the elders Pat and Slim also nodded.
“They said they were in prison, but I heard about it through Clomen…” ”
The reason they blew it up was to find the red dragon eye, but it’s actually because they have something to hide there.”
“That means…”
“Please gather only the veterans from among the remaining knights and send them there. And…”
I opened the paper and drew something.
Even with the power of the Death Lord, dimensional movement was not easily possible.
If so, there was only one ritual I could think of,
but I got a rough idea at the point where I wanted a red dragon child.
“Is this… a magic circle?”
“Yes. I have an assistant there. He’s a bit of an eccentric named Io, but he knows the geography very well. Let him help you find him and destroy him.”
“Okay.”
“You have to move carefully. The Tartarus Underground Mountains are still full of dangerous monsters.”
Elder Sharth frowned at my request.
“Can this be enough?”
“Yes. Empires and kingdoms within the continent also move. Although they don’t know about your existence, that doesn’t mean their purpose is different.”
Make sure to tighten your breath.
If you cut off all the lives of the elders, chaos will come at once.
“We’ll sort out the post-issues here after I’ve dealt with this.”
“A large number of elders have been imprisoned. Confusion will come. Also, the presence of elders…” “Actually, there is
no need for elders. There are knights who actually run the field. But leadership is necessary. So… if possible, vote Shall I?”
At my playful words, Elder Sharth showed a complicated expression.
“For now, let’s think about that later. Let’s just ask one.”
“What is it?”
“I heard that as the successor of the founder of the Knights Templar, you have been given the authority to punish the elders.”
“Well, first of all, it’s a promise. Actually, it’s funny that he’s doing this now.”
“If you do, do you intend to punish all the Guardians?”
His question made me think of seven men and women.
All of them are master level or higher, and they are one of the last bastions protecting this headquarters and one of the best forces.
I can’t remember all of them, but the skill of the cold-looking guy I cut off at the end was quite amazing.
“It will always be an afterthought. So I saved it.”
The same goes for elders.
“Hey… do you really want my feud to happen again?”
“The imprisoned elders I’ve seen will use the Guardians to cause trouble again. Then, now I have a reason to blow them up.”
Killing them all then is the cleanest thing.
“I heard you are in your teens. You are uncharacteristically cruel.”
“If you don’t like it, you can reject it. At that time, we intend to separate the entire Knights.”
Even without the needless Council of Elders, the Knights could be maintained in their own way.
“No, it will always be an afterthought. It’s a pity, but I also think the same as you. The total headquarter was too high. There will be a need for ventilation once in a while. But the guardians can’t be a little lenient.”
“They are guardians…”
“They are only loyal. Although they have erratic personalities, they are all good-natured.”
“They’re the ones most likely to cause problems.”
“They don’t care if things are right or wrong. They just do it dutifully when given orders. So I can step in and placate them.”
At the words of Elder Sharth, Slim and Elder Pat also nodded.
“Elder Sharth will be busy with overall responsibility for this, so we will meet them.”
“We can’t remove most of the members of the Knights. So why don’t we leave it to the Guardians to disguise themselves as mercenaries? I’ll make sure not to cause trouble.”
“What’s good?”
The fewer knights disguised as mercenaries, the better.
What’s left now.
will see the end.
I waited a moment for the Guardians to wake up and allow Elder Slim to speak with them.
and.
It didn’t take long when they came out.
Without hesitation, the prepared transfer magic circle was manifested.
“…”
I asked, turning my back on those who were silently watching me.
“If you have any complaints, you can get out of here.”
I didn’t look good, but none of the seven Guardians listened to me and backed down.
“We serve the Knights. If the Knights change their orders, we just follow them.”
When the tall man spoke quietly, I nodded and turned around.
Their appearance was quite rough, whether they thought of fighting or not.
but.
It stands out too much.
“What is the appearance of the Shadow Knights who have to hide?”
“Ugh… Muh… What are you doing!”
A man with a rough impression shouted at me in bewilderment, but I took off the ornaments adorning his body without hesitation.
“Did you really decide to remember me? Are you going on a picnic somewhere?!”
“This… This is my identity…”
“Why are you looking for that damn identity?”
In the first place, the mission must be carried out quietly so as not to be noticed by others.
I feel like I lost a lot of sense of the scene because I was tied to the head office for too long.
“Others there too, lady. Remove the bandage from your face.”
At my words, the black-haired woman who had been staring at me with a chain lifted off the mask and bandages covering her mouth.
Then, a beautiful appearance is revealed.
“… Just wear the mask.”
Saying so, hand her over.
A large robe covered the tattoo on the red-haired young man who boasted a tattoo on his bulging muscles.
“Ugh?! This… This tattoo is important…
”
Not even three-year-olds, what is this doing?
After checking the status of all six people, I looked at the man with his eyes closed in silence for the last time.
The cold-looking man quietly opened his eyes as I approached.
“I want to ask you one question.”
“What is it?”
“You guys could have killed us all.”
I didn’t answer him.
“But each one has been pushing at a slightly stronger level than that according to their skills. What is the reason?”
To his question, I answered as if there was nothing to worry about.
“The arrogant ones develop a little more when they are heated once.”
In a calm voice, he quietly closed his eyes.
“You mean that’s all?”
“There is no meaning to Saddam beyond this in the order.”
I lightly snapped my fingers at Basara’s surprisingly cool attitude.
At the same time, the magic circle on the floor is manifested.
Span!!!
With those words, me and the 7 Guardians. And Lynn and Illina’s bodies disappeared as if they were engulfed in light.
* * *
Transitioning into the huge forest, I looked at the Guardians looking around.
Although they have a young impression, each one of them is a strategic weapon class strongman.
“How can you use teleportation magic so easily…”
A woman who was a wizard among the Guardians muttered in amazement, but no one paid attention to her words.
“Is this… a forest?”
“Hey. What are you doing here?”
“Wait a minute.”
Saying that, I curled my index finger and thumb and blew a strong whistle.
Beep beep!!!
Beep beep sounds several times.
A few of them looked at me as if they were puzzled by my actions, and tried to say something, but Basara’s eyes widened.
“Kheup!”
At the same time, he made a surprised expression as if he felt something.
“Everyone prepare for battle!! Enemies!”
At his cry, the guardians who were chatting with each other moved.
I raised my head to see them showing surprisingly efficient movements, apart from their light appearance a moment ago.
There, a huge dragon king tinged with black light appeared.
By revealing fierce hostility toward me.
“Mmm… Crazy! Nonsense!”
“You want to fight something like that?!”
“My whole body feels tingly…”
They heard the news that there was a mighty enemy and knew about it, but they looked astonished as if they hadn’t thought that it would be as strong as this.
And that moment when he prepared for battle without backing down even though he was trembling with fear.
[Damn it. Even goblins are not touched while eating!]
The black dragon king, who shouted with a tremendous presence, moved as if he would attack at any moment.
“Move!! He attacks!”
And when the Guardians saw Megarodria let out a roar, they got scared and started to scatter.
“Hey!! What are you doing!”
However, when I and Lynne and Illina didn’t move at all, a man with a rough look hurriedly ran over and tried to carry Ilina and Lynne around.
It was the man who first attacked me and passed out with his head on the ground without being able to resist.
“Are you stiff?! Why did you come all the way here when you’re so weak!”
“Hey?! What are you doing! Let go of this!”
Embarrassed, Illina struggled and kicked him in the stomach.
“Cheuk!!”
Confused by the attack power beyond imagination, the man screamed and rolled on the floor.
He seemed not to know, but in reality Illina’s skills were at a level that was not inferior to him at all.
However, it was true that I was the only one who caused trouble in this situation, so there was a lack of information about her.
The guardian who uses magic was preparing to attack at any moment, and as if to protect her, the red-haired man summoned the fire sword he had used on me and was preparing to intercept it at any moment.
The woman holding the chain tensed her scythe with a nervous expression on her face, while Basara and the other one were holding swords and preparing to dig right in.
“Crazy! What the hell are you doing! We have to get out of here quickly! I can’t afford to fight while protecting the two of you…!”
He hurriedly shut his mouth.
Megalodria, who had been snarling at me with hostility, suddenly averted her gaze when she saw what I had thrown into the air.
“It’s a lot of radioactive meat.”
[Kuhm! Forgive me just this time! I’ll give you a ride on my back too!]
As if to say that the hostility that had just poured out was a lie.
The surrounding atmosphere is instantly relaxed.
The black dragon king swallowed the piece of meat that floated in the air in one bite and licked his lips as if he was satisfied.
Then he looked at the seven guardians, including the man who was groaning on the floor, and asked.
[Contractor. What are these ridiculous guys?]
At his words, the Guardians couldn’t escape their dumbfounded faces for a while.
“I don’t know, it’s been a while since I came out of the world, so I guess I haven’t adapted yet.”
“While that monster shows such a sense of intimidation, how can anyone not be vigilant!!”
One of the guardians who couldn’t stand my words eventually screamed as if it was unfair.
