The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant - Chapter 176

Episode 176

“It’s a drinking campaign that spans the entire world… No one has ever done something like this before.”

Den Howl, Michael Alec Traman, and Erika Nanigawa gathered at Namgung’s summons.

“But they said it was suspected to be Druid magic, so the Druid did not attend.”

Alec Traman pointed out that Roxanne, the revelator of the Widow of Thorns, was missing.

“Recently, the red zone has suddenly become unstable. It is probably expected after the Tower of Wu appears. “She says it is difficult for her to attend because she is clearing out the monsters running rampant in the red zone.”

“Shouldn’t we call in another expert? “Because we are ignorant of druid magic.”

“I was going to bring her teacher, Kuhuran. “He is the best druid in existence.”

“however?”

“I was rejected. “They said it would be difficult to come here because of my age.”

“No, right now we are standing at a crossroads where the world may be destroyed. Does that make sense? There’s also Michael’s leaping technique. “If that were the case, you would be able to come over in less than a second, right?”

“Because the jumping technique itself puts a strain on the body.”

“Then… wouldn’t it be okay to find another way, like a video call or something? There is no need to see it in person at any time.”

The rest of the revelators, including Den Howl, endlessly rebutted Namgung’s answer.

But the moment they saw Namgung’s expression, they could no longer say anything.

Because out of all the people here, he was the one with the worst expression.

“The reason Cuhuran refused was because there were already two druids who were better than him.”

“2 people?”

People looked at each other at Myung-Hoon’s words.

“I heard that the person who received Kuhuran’s teachings was probably team leader Park Hyo-joo… but there is one more person besides her…”

Den Howl closed his mouth with a look of regret.

“Ah…”

This is because I realized why Namgung’s expression was not good.

“okay. Team leader Park Hyo-joo will be investigating the currently known clans belonging to Carlos along with members of the Chamak Unit for the time being. Instead, Somin will be in charge of destroying a large drinking group.”

“Brother, you’re not going to work on the operation together, are you?”

Hojun asked.

“Don’t worry too much. “There are many people here who are weaker than Somin.”

Erica smiled slightly, looking at Somin.

“Just because you’re strong doesn’t mean you win every battle. A child’s heart is easily shaken. “That momentary gap can be the deciding factor that separates life and death.”

“Let Biyue protect her. And if you want, you can view the future predictions as being about Somin until the plan is completed.”

“Thank you, sister.”

Somin bowed her head to her. Erica stroked her head.

“No matter how strong a child is, in the eyes of their parents, they still need to be looked after. “Somin, please always remember not to be swayed by your own power.”

“Yes I will.”

Namgung let out a low sigh as his daughter looked at him with eyes asking for trust.

“First of all, I ask you to destroy the magic method. You know better, but you have to be careful. If you delve into the techniques of magic, you are exposing yourself to the magician. Rather, it ends up attracting enemies.”

“Okay, I get it!!”

When Namgoong gave permission, Somin rushed out of the conference room, looking excited.

“You damn old man. “I’m sure I’ll be able to come back safely…”

He clicked his tongue, thinking of Kuhuran, who was clearly smiling.

“It probably means trusting Somin. “Maybe… everyone will believe it except you.”

“Thinking like that is the most dangerous.”

“yes?”

“Do you really think there are no children of Somin’s age who are stronger than you? It can be said that children’s qualities are truly endless. “I’m sure other children can be stronger than you.”

Namgung looked at the people.

“But can you tell those kids to fight for you?”

“….”

No one could answer.

“Partly because I am the parent who protects Somin… but also because I thought that the moment I borrowed Somin’s power, even I might end up relying on that child.”

People slowly nodded at Namgung’s words.

“Once a heart begins to rely, whenever someone stronger than me appears, it becomes weak again. Even if it’s children.”

“So you said you, not us? As if you are as strong as you are.”

Erica asked with a smile.

“That’s right. “Those children also need to have somewhere to rely on.”

Although it was meant as a joke, Namgung somehow responded seriously to her words.

“In Brazil, I saw children from slums being exploited like slaves. Among them, there were children who showed talent. But before I realized my qualities, I was just being used as a tool.”

Namgung said.

“Reawakening the power of children with qualifications. And to be stronger than kids with qualifications. “That is what we will do.”

“All right.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

match-!!

“Then go to your respective positions. “If anything unusual is found, report it to the coalition.”

“older brother.”

Myunghoon caught Namgoong leaving the conference room.

“why?”

“Then who do you rely on, brother?”

“…what?”

Namgung looked at Myung-hoon as if he was saying something out of the blue, but soon read his thoughts and chuckled.

“Stop making a fuss and go and do your work. You never know when the next door will open. “We need to deal with it quickly before then.”

He lightly tapped Myung-Hoon on the shoulder.

* * *

“How did I not notice a place like that until now?”

On the deck of the ship stopped in front of the Buenos Aires port, Namgoong and other people spoke as if they were dumbfounded.

“What do you think?”

“That is definitely not a barrier made using attack and defense techniques. “I don’t know, but it looks like I can’t break it with physical attacks.”

“It seems like the fortification has progressed to some extent. “It may not be at the level of Daejeon, but it appears to have quite a variety, so it is highly likely that there are turrets behind the wall.”

Man Deok-su and Jin Soo-hyuk spoke while looking at the city in the distance.

Although the city was surrounded by an unusual red wall and was clearly visible to the naked eye, it was not captured by satellites or various surveillance systems at all.

“Looking at that, it’s even weirder. “It was a strange sight to anyone who saw it, but why didn’t the crew report it?”

“You said that none of those dispatched could be contacted, right? “There is a high possibility that there will be some kind of magical trap if you go inside that wall.”

“Because among Druid techniques, there are things like mind control and mental contamination.”

Gulp –

Namgung drank the potion in one gulp.

▶ The effect of the elixir of advanced resistance (status) is applied.

▶ Has strong resistance to all abnormal status attacks of grade 2 or lower for 5 minutes.

▶ When receiving an attack with a status higher than the resistance level, the duration of the effect is reduced.

▶ Be careful because if the effect of the elixir is forcibly destroyed, the damage will return to the owner.

Feeling the effects of the potion slowly rising within his body, Namgung got on the boat prepared under the ship.

Buuuuuung…!!

The boat began to run towards the city at high speed.

* * *

Jjiing….

After passing through the red barrier, Namgung pressed his temples, feeling pain that felt like a needle stabbing his head.

‘If I hadn’t taken the elixir, I would have been in quite a bit of trouble.’

Namgung thought with the same expression on his face, but on the other hand, he couldn’t help but be surprised that even though it was a high-level elixir, a more advanced technique than he expected was being applied to the city, to the point of causing pain.

‘I used an intermediate elixir when I was hunting the giant demon. Just in case, it’s a one-level higher elixir…’

He was curious about who would be skilled enough to break through the enhanced resistance.

Crackling… Chicking….

Noise was heard in the in-ear earphones I was wearing, and sparks flashed.

I didn’t expect it, but as soon as I passed the barrier, Namgung roughly threw the broken earphones into the sea and looked around the city.

“…It’s quiet.”

The cityscape didn’t look much different, but he couldn’t shake off the strange feeling of heterogeneity.

“welcome.”

It was then.

As the boat passed the city’s terminal and arrived in the port district of ‘La Boca’, to my surprise there was a man standing in front of it.

Wearing a neat suit, he put one arm on his chest and politely greeted Namgung.

“My name is Perez. It serves Sir Carlos. We welcome your visit.”

“Sir Carlos? “You sound interesting.”

Namgung got off the boat and looked around the city.

After seeing Perez, I was able to understand the reason for the strange feeling of difference that I did not know at first.

“The outfit is flashy. “What castle did it come from?”

The suit that Perez was wearing was strangely different from the modern one.

It feels like looking at a person from the Middle Ages.

And the buildings in the city were all of classic shapes.

“Now I see that it wasn’t simply cut off from the outside world. “It was a completely new city.”

This was no longer Buenos Aires, Argentina.

A new city that didn’t exist on the map.

That is why it was not detected in all detection systems.

“you’re right. Sir Carlos created a city of strength where everyone can become strong.”

“City of Power? Crazy….”

‘You can’t buy the tools to create a city even if you pay a price. If that’s the case, then this city itself was created through magic…’

Namgung thought that the person he had to deal with might be a greater person than he thought.

“I will guide you.”

It was said as a joke, but when Namgung raised his head following Perez’s outstretched hand, there was a really huge castle built there.

Heeeeeee…!!

A carriage stopped in front of the two people.

The man sitting in the coach seat bowed his head towards Namgung, but for some reason he seemed lifeless.

No, actually, that wasn’t important.

There were no horses to pull the carriage at the end of the reins held by the driver.

A carriage with nothing on it ran towards them as expected.

Namgung got on the carriage.

What the-!!

A strange voice that was not a human voice was heard, and the carriage began to run towards the castle at high speed.

“….”

As the size of the black castle, which looked dark when viewed from a distance, gradually increased, Namgung’s eyes as he looked out the window also widened.

“Castillo de sangre.”

Perez, who was watching this, spoke to Namgung as if he had been waiting.

“Welcome to the Castle of Blood.”

The castle was made of countless human bones.
