The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant - Chapter 32
Episode 32
…Kwajik!!!
Alec gave strength to the box he was holding in his arms.
The wooden box was broken roughly.
▶ Obtained the Serpent’s Scale (Normal).
▶ It can be exchanged for a head from the proxy clan.
▶ Transactions between reward recipients are possible.
▶ 2000 heads
was by no means a small number of heads at this point.
The remaining iron box also contained 20,000 heads.
It was quite a lot of heads, but Alec was not pleased at all.
“….”
It was because of the remaining two reward boxes in front of me.
▶ A reward (success) will be awarded to the participant who delivers the final blow to the monster.
▶ Serpent’s Repulsive Piece (1 piece) will be awarded. The loot can be acquired by one of the reward recipients.
‘You took the world boss’ real reward all by yourself.’
Looking at it, I couldn’t help but feel sick.
“A customer from England is passing away. “Shouldn’t we open the way?”
At that moment, masked people with their faces covered appeared between the gaps in the building and began attacking the Lizardmen.
‘Is there more left?’
As Alec watched the assassins quickly subduing the monsters, he realized that fighting any more was pointless.
“Go down to Seongnam. Incheon Airport is currently closed, but it will be possible to take off from Seoul Airport. “If you go and say Kang Ho-jun’s name, they will let you pass.”
“…I’ll invite you to England next time.”
“I’m not going. I get motion sick on planes. If you want to come, you should come.”
“Do you get motion sick on airplanes?”
“huh.”
“You don’t lose a word.”
Namgung smiled and waved at Alec, who was gritting his teeth.
“…let’s go.”
Alec disappeared along the path made by the moon. Following him, Hanson and Johanna also disappeared.
“Phew.”
When he left, it was only then that Namgung exhaled as if he could relax a little.
“Fortunately, he stepped down. “It’s more embarrassing to deal with that guy than to deal with the Serpent.”
“Is that so? Yes, he is human. “It’s strange that you, the person who caught that monster, would say that.”
Katsumata approached him and said, wiping the bloody dagger.
“There are ways to hunt monsters. That guy doesn’t exist. “We will continue to become stronger in the future.”
“Then why don’t you just not get the reward? “You just gave me over 20,000 heads.”
“If I hadn’t received that, I wouldn’t have walked away so quietly. Besides, the head isn’t important to him. “From now on, he will dominate most of the dungeons created in England.”
“The winner will be who catches the world boss first.”
Namgung nodded at his words.
“This time, we too will quietly retreat. “Now that we have confirmed Alec Traman’s intentions and your identity, we will capture the next boss.”
“I’m not looking forward to it. You have to kill the boss to close the damn door. “I don’t care who catches it first.”
Namgung turned his head at the soft voice.
“It’s just that you guys can’t do it, so I’ll do it first.”
Namgung said while looking at Ninaga and Erika.
“Although the Lord gave a revelation, I honestly had doubts about the existence of returnees. But now I’m sure, and the one thing I’m worried about is…”
She said with a bitter smile at his seemingly sarcastic remark.
“The regressor can never be welcomed by the revelators. Perhaps you will become their enemy.”
“Why?”
“Because that is something that I, as someone with precognitive abilities, also sympathize with. “It’s definitely a burden to know what decisions you’re making in the future.”
Erica said, spreading both palms vertically.
“Foreknowledge and knowing the future mean that you can know and prevent accidents in advance, but from the other side, that is just violence against something that hasn’t happened yet.”
Then he said, flicking away the other hand with one hand.
“But… the future is something no one knows. “The future I saw through foresight has now completely changed.”
Namgung nodded.
“That’s it. No one knows the future. Therefore, there is no guarantee that they will become enemies.”
“It won’t be easy.”
“I have no intention of going easy from the beginning. And I had no expectation that everyone would be on my side. Future memories are only used for hunting. “What divides people between enemies and allies is reality now, not memories from then.”
“…All right.”
Erica nodded slowly, as if she understood his words a little.
“Are you going back to Japan? Then… I will contact the airport.”
“no. it’s okay. “We will go on our own.”
At Hojun’s words, Erica politely shook her head and refused to listen to him.
“It is indeed the Ninagawa family. “It’s different from just another celebrity.”
“If we’re talking about wealth, could you follow Alec? “I just know a slightly darker path.”
In fact, Alek Traman also came here on a private plane.
The only difference was whether permission was required to fly the plane or not.
‘Because the Ninagawa family’s connections are intertwined all over the world.’
Since he has the power to fly a plane in another country without any hesitation, it is hard to know where it ends.
“Then we should hurry to sort out the remaining monsters. “The world boss is dead and the door is closed, but there will still be many summoned Lizardmen.”
“I wish you good luck.”
She nodded and finally spoke to Namgung.
“Let me give you one piece of advice. Be careful of people. “Someday you will have to suffer because of people who are not monsters.”
“Is it foresight?”
“For now… let’s just say it’s a persimmon.”
“Then that’s it. I take care of my future. I hope it’s not you who needs to be careful. “Because your head could fall in my hands.”
Erica smiled and left.
Katsumata shook his head as if he could not stand Namgung’s words, nodded, and hurriedly followed her.
[Keek…! [Kekkekeek!!!]
But without any time to catch their breath, the remaining Lizardmen rushed toward Namgung.
bang-! bang-!! Quagga River–!!
At that moment, red lightning struck around Namgung.
“dad!!!”
He raised his head at Somin’s shout.
“I’ll help too!”
She said excitedly after burning dozens of Lizardmen in an instant.
“Don’t overdo it. “I already used too much magic power to burn the serpent’s scales.”
“are you okay. “I got enough rest thanks to the guy over there.”
Behind her was Jeon Tae-ho.
“I am greatly indebted to you.”
Although it was their first time meeting, the two only exchanged glances to say hello.
“You can pay the debt now. “Please take care of my daughter.”
“What can you ask of me? Somin is much better than me. “I will help.”
Jeon Tae-ho told Namgung not to worry.
“Please use this.”
Namgung took out the rune stones he had collected so far from his squadron and handed them to him.
“It will help.”
At first, Jeon Tae-ho had a puzzled expression, but when he saw the quick-witted rune stone in his hand, he immediately realized what it meant.
▶ Lowest level rune: Agility was used.
▶ Lowest level rune: Agility was used.
▶ Lowest level rune: Power was used.
▶ Lesser rune: Stamina was used.
‘The weapon isn’t that good… but with this level of rune, I think I can cover it up with enough skill.’
It was not simply because he was a former national representative.
He also woke up in Namgoong’s previous life, and Namgoong knew his activities better than anyone else.
‘After awakening with Elixir, he grew faster than anyone else. Thanks to this, the number of monsters he killed before being killed by the saint was enormous.’
Suddenly,
Namgung cut off the Lizardman’s head. At that moment
,
unlike before, a small rock fell from the Lizardman’s body.
A rune stone with a bright yellow rune word engraved on it.
It was the lowest level magic rune.
‘His rapid growth is due to this rune.’
Jeon Tae-ho’s effect was indeed clear.
‘The longer he can fight without getting tired, the more runes he can acquire.’
Jeon Tae-ho probably doesn’t know how amazing and extravagant it is to use four runes at this point.
This was precisely the reason why Namgung went all-in on him instead of using the runes he had collected so far on himself.
“Everyone listen carefully!! If you think you need the rune you got, you can use it right away. And then we return to the base and share the rest.”
“All right!”
“yes!!”
Kwaaaaang–! bang-!!
The number of Lizardmen still remaining was countless, but monsters were no longer a fear to them.
Tuk –
Due to Jeon Tae-ho’s characteristics, rune stones are pouring out in an incomparable amount compared to before.
This was because it was a battle to become stronger rather than a battle for survival.
▶ The second festival has ended.
▶ Compensation will be given to all survivors.
▶ 1000 heads have been paid.
[…Keak!!]
The moment Namgung cut off the last Lizardman’s head, red letters appeared in the sky just like when the first hell gate was closed.
“it’s okay!!!”
“It’s finally over…!!”
Myung-Hoon, who had been gloomy when he first saw the red letters, was now able to cheer for his survival.
“….”
Namgung looked around.
Unlike when I first came to Yeouido, it was a short time, but I felt like everyone had grown.
It was not simply because his physical abilities increased by eating rune stones.
‘Strategy and tactics.’
It was important that Myung-hoon, Ho-jun, Gyeong-in, and So-min played their respective roles against Alek Traman and Erika Ninagawa before hunting down the monster.
Working together.
It was more important than simply having good weapons and physical growth.
“Brother, didn’t you block much more reliably this time? “If it stays like this, even if the monsters keep coming, I think we’ll be able to stop them.”
Myung-Hoon spoke in a relaxed voice.
Perhaps because he had acquired quite a few runestones related to strength and agility, it felt like his physique had become a little more solid.
“You can’t let your guard down. There will be many monsters stronger than you can imagine in the future. “You have to move in a planned manner.”
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
Myung-Hoon answered immediately without any resistance, but his expression was definitely brighter than before.
‘Well, it’s not a bad idea to have a little extra space.’
A tightly pulled string is bound to break at any time.
Namgung lightly tapped Myeonghun’s shoulder and nodded.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan~!!
It was then.
“…!!”
“…!!!”
Black smoke rose up along with a roar, as if to warn them that they had become loose.
“Over there…”
Myung-Hoon pointed to a place with blank eyes.
Thanks to them, the damage was minimized, but due to the monsters’ attack, the Yeouido area was practically a mess, with ruins here and there.
In fact, there were numerous collapsed buildings around.
But despite this, there was one place that should never collapse.
“The Capitol…”
he said in a trembling voice.
“It’s burning.”
