Quaaaaaa-!!
The light was emitted without warning. A bright red light split the battlefield and engulfed the vassals without any form. The ray of light that passed by scratching the ground ate up the mountains, fields, and sea before hiding its shape and disappearing.
The number of vassals was reduced by half again. The faces of those who survived were filled with defeat and despair.
“That… Get rid of it… I said… ?”
Tyra’s voice cut through the oppressive air. Little by little, she was realizing the absurd facts of everyone else. The dull sky, the acrid smoke that obscures the view, and the limbs of ‘Beusbrihel’, which were conceived countless times and were called, all reminded me of the terrible reality.
Crackling, crackling-
The communication device that was out of communication conveyed an anxiety that I did not want to confirm. The sight before my eyes was so overwhelming. The very idea of taking away the victory was an empty imagination. Meanwhile, ‘Beusbrihel’ had been restored and had returned to its original form.
There were no weaknesses or even the slightest gap. Every time Beusbrihel’s mouth opened, the light emitted swallowed up the world like a moth. He didn’t even allow me to get close.
There were hundreds of damaged airships. Those who made an emergency escape from the crashing airship, unable to withstand its mobility, turned their backs and ran away to escape the battlefield.
A bright red light flashed before my eyes again. In the distance, ‘Beusbrihel’, bathed in bright red light, was turning its head towards where Sehyeon was. There was nowhere to escape. Screams were heard from all over the place. That sharp cry stung my skin. I had the illusion that the river of death was glimmering in my vision.
My body couldn’t move at all, as if I had cramps in my arms and legs. The black river gradually filled her eyes with clarity.
I could barely see Baek Do-hyeon urgently turning the bow of the airship. It was about to explode as if a red light was being emitted. Just when the thought that it was too late was scratching his head, a hollow singing sound was heard through the suffocating air.
That song stopped everything. It was an aria that spread eerily like an echo. The song spread strangely and languidly, as if bewitching all things.
“This… .”
It was a singing voice I had heard before. It was none other than the song of a goddess. It was a mournful song heard in the goddess’ world where black waves swirled around.
‘Beusbrihel’s mouth slowly began to close. The red light forming inside was swallowed up by the whirlpool again. ‘Beusbrihel’ crouched down with its huge body, tilted its head strangely and looked somewhere.
The singing voice was frighteningly dangerous, like singing ‘Beusbrihel’. Jaeyoung Lee walked forward as if possessed. The wide-open eyes were shining brightly.
“voice… “I hear your voice, bro.”
It was a booming voice. Sehyun moved her gaze to where Jaeyoung Lee was looking. The faint tower shrouded in fog appeared whitish. It was the tower of testing.
“The goddess… “I’m calling for a monster.”
Lee Jae-young’s eyes wandered aimlessly here and there. When the gaze stopped at a certain point, the motionless ‘Beusbrihel’ began to move.
‘Beusbrihel’ had no legs. Clumpy mucus replaced the legs, and long, thin arms touched the floor and led the body forward. ‘Beusbrihel’ crawled at a frightening speed towards the place where the goddess was, shedding mucus. The mountain range in front of me melted black as soon as it touched the slime shed by ‘Beusbrihel’.
“I’m going to die… . Goddess… I’m going to die… .”
Jaeyoung Lee muttered, scratching his ears like a person suffering from noise. Sehyeon managed to grab his hand and stop him. And I kept an eye on ‘Beusbrihel’ heading towards the Tower of Tests.
Kwaaaaang-
Two huge black objects collided with a loud noise. ‘Beus Brihel’, who hit her whole body, dug into the Tower of Test and crushed it in her hands. Everything that was crushed was swallowed into the mouth of ‘Beusbrihel’.
Each time the remnants of the goddess were swallowed, ‘Beusbrihel’ grew increasingly larger. Many guides desperately tried to stop ‘Beusbrihel’, but innocent deaths only increased. With one angry wave, the guides were swept away or caught in the palm of their hand and swallowed along with the remnants of the goddess.
The goddess was now sacrificing herself to buy time. She took it upon herself to be her prey in order to correct the morale of her battlefield, which was in chaos, and she risked everything in the hope that it would be her last chance. The screams of the guides wandering over her battlefield were painful.
“… Bae, Baek Do-hyeon. Communication connection between Mr. Fen and Mr. Baluk… “What happened?”
Sehyeon curled his fingertips and turned his head. And he woke everyone up. Here, the only thing players can do to repay her sacrifice is to not waste this time.
Crackling-
[…] field… Crackling… go… .]
[Crackling… answer… Well… .]
Soon, a communication full of noise was connected. It was an airship with fins and baluks. Communication stabilized after a while and became clear.
“Mr. Fen, Mr. Baluk, are you both okay?”
[The airship here was wrecked and made an emergency landing nearby. Thanks to Theo’s iron wall, he escaped serious injury… It is difficult to move because it is on the verge of complete destruction.]
[This side’s wings have been blown away and it’s barely maintaining its balance in emergency mode, so I don’t know if it can participate in the attack.]
The voices of Fen and Baluk rang out one after another. Sehyeon looked at the area where there were numerous half-wrecked airships. I don’t know exactly how many aircraft survived, but roughly speaking, more than half of them have already disappeared from Ellix’s history. Needless to say, the troops of the vassals were there.
“I don’t have time, so I’ll speak quickly.”
Fen and Baluk were already considered incapable of combat. The number of magic weapons remaining on the battlefield was at most around 30. Fan’s airship is inoperable and cannot directly participate in the battle.
It was no different from other people. Here, there was only one person who could fight regardless of the battlefield situation.
“Jaeyoung.”
Jaeyoung Lee is the only one who can cohere and control monsters. Lee Jae-young faced Se-hyeon without any sign of surprise at Se-hyeon’s call.
“Jaeyoung… We’re going to the center. We’ll be assisting Jaeyoung with gunfire, so Theo and Ryoma, please block all possible attacks. Mr. Fan, when I give the signal, you will relay the shooting instructions to other airships.”
[Okay.]
“I guess… “I don’t think it would be difficult to use the weapon now.”
The guides’ screams rang in my ears again. Sehyeon looked up and looked at Bill Will floating in the distant sky. The hand holding the weapon tightly said a lot. I could see that the shadowed face was distorted with sadness.
These were people who loved the goddess more than anyone else. Those of her who had hoped and aspired for her to live more than anyone else, were now losing her before her eyes. The players’ incompetence took away her goddess.
Unlike other guides, Billwill did not leave the spot until the end. Sehyun pressed the radio button outside of the rain factory and silenced him. He swallowed dry saliva several times before he could speak his words.
“… Mr. Bill Will. “Please give me some weapons.”
Billwill didn’t move for a while. However, when his head was lowered, the weapon that fell out of his hand fell to the ground like a killing star. And it crashed into the middle of the battlefield with a loud noise.
Freed from Bilwill’s control, the weapon quickly grew in size. Se-hyeon was planning to give Lee Jae-young that weapon. Now that Jaeyoung Lee is the only one who can directly attack ‘Beusbrihel’, Jaeyoung Lee had to take on the role of handling the weapon.
“Mr. Fen, we will start shooting as soon as we are ready. Please pass it on to the entire airship.”
There was no time. The back of ‘Beusbrihel’, which was tearing off the head of the goddess and eating it, had grown to a frightening extent. Her guides threw themselves into her fire pit to at least watch her body.
[There are many places where communication cannot reach! I will give orders to fire only where possible!]
“Jaeyoung, get ready.”
Lee Jae-young’s eyes had already turned white. A noise that shook the ground was heard from somewhere. It was the sound of all monsters converging in one place.
The monsters that gathered shaking the ground gradually grew bigger in the black smoke. It was an amalgamation of all the monsters living within Elix. When the terrifyingly increasing size reached a size comparable to that of ‘Beusbrihel’, Sehyeon embraced Lee Jaeyoung’s collapsing body.
I haven’t lost my mind. Jaeyoung Lee’s mind was currently connected to a giant monster fusion with hot breath.
It’s the last time. If Jaeyoung Lee couldn’t hold out here, there was no hope of fighting. So, he had to somehow insert the weapon into the body of ‘Beusbrihel’.
Meanwhile, the weapon had become a huge harpoon comparable to Jaeyoung Lee’s monster. Jaeyoung Lee staggered towards the weapon with his long arms stretched out. And then he stretched out his hand, which was grotesquely joined by monsters, and grabbed the weapon and pulled it out.
