MEMORIZE Chapter 647

00647 Dangerous blind date(?). ————————————————– ———————-=

In the midst of bad vibes, Cho Seong-ho appeared. Naturally, the air in the room became stiff and the users’ faces hardened. Only Jo Seong-ho is walking with a smiling face.

‘I caught one case.’

We’ve been treating each other as if we didn’t exist until now, so it’s obvious why we suddenly came here like this. Cho Seong-ho also has ears, so he would have already heard about the desertion.

I don’t know what to say. However, in the current situation, it is actually a fight that Cho Seong-ho will win unconditionally for the sake of justification. No matter what he says, the fact that he was unable to manage his users is bound to be a huge disadvantage.

Still, I slowly walked in the direction where Jo Seong-ho was coming. I know it’s not right, but my honest feeling is that I don’t want to see my brother being pushed down.

“Ah, Mercenary Road.”

When the path was blocked, Cho Seong-ho still smiled and pretended to know.

“After we met at the Eastern Fortress… .”

“Yes, it’s been a while.”

When Cho Seong-ho intentionally interrupted the conversation, his eyes widened slightly and the faces of the attendants changed completely. However, when Cho Seong-ho quickly gave him a glance, he did not come out openly. They just glare at me with eyes that are extremely unpleasant.

As I accepted those stares, I quietly opened my mouth.

“Anyway, what brings you here all of a sudden?”

“hmm? “Does it sound like I’ve come to a place I shouldn’t have come to?”

“… If it’s not urgent, I’d like you to leave now. As you can see, the current situation is the situation.”

“ah! Are you really talking about the desertion incident?”

Then, Cho Seong-ho suddenly raised his voice and emphasized that it was a case of desertion.

“It is truly a pity. In fact, the reason I came here is because of that incident.”

“Nothing has been confirmed yet. “We are currently sorting out the situation, so I don’t think it is Goryeo Road’s concern yet.”

“That’s for me to decide. Thank you for the advice, but I don’t think this is something to discuss with the Mercenary Lord. “There are two people here right now, so I’ll just leave.”

“… … .”

Jo Seong-ho raised the corner of his mouth as if he had more to say. And “Okay then.” As he was about to pass by, I took the same steps and blocked his path again. Cho Seong-ho stares at me as if asking what I’m doing.

“this… . Mercenary Lord?”

A voice that sounds strangely, as if you are not angry. But I have no intention of leaving here. I met the sharp gaze and opened my mouth.

No, it was just about to be opened.

“Was the Mercenary Lord the overall commander?”

Suddenly, Cho Seong-ho came in and hit the player.

“or not… . “Has the commander-in-chief of the South been replaced without my knowledge?”

And the words that followed suddenly left me speechless. This is because Cho Seong-ho’s words were not to step forward unless he was the commander-in-chief. However, if you continue to hold out here, it will be an attitude of ignoring Han So-young. He was an outsider.

‘This damn guy… .’

It was then.

“The Mercenary Lord is not the overall commander of the South. “He is exactly the leader of the vanguard unit.”

Suddenly, a cold voice was heard from the left. As I rolled my eyes slightly, I saw Han So-young walking confidently with her arms crossed. Cho Seong-ho withdraws his gaze from me and turns around.

“Aha, I see. I thought I was mistaken again. The Mercenary Lord’s attitude toward blocking me was too proud. ha ha ha.”

“Yes, of course. “It’s Mercenary Road.”

Jo Seong-ho laughed so hard that it seemed like he was doing it on purpose. However, when Soyoung Han responded right away, she soon stopped laughing. A cold sneer settles on Han So-young’s lips as she looks at Cho Seong-ho.

“You really made a huge contribution in this attack, right? So, of course, you can be confident, right?”

“no… .”

“You have performed so well that no one here can compare you.”

“… … .”

Han So-young especially emphasized the phrase ‘with anyone.’ This time, Jo Seong-ho immediately shut his mouth. Although it was only for a moment, I noticed a hard look on his face. At first glance, Han So-young’s words sounded like she was praising me, but in reality, she meant to harshly criticize Cho Seong-ho’s behavior.

Soon, Jo Seong-ho grinned at Han So-young’s vague gaze.

“Of course it is. “I have heard of Mercenary Lord’s achievements, and I personally respect him.”

He then quietly took a step back and continued speaking with a much gentler face.

“And the reason I came here now is because I wanted to stop the search first and leave as quickly as possible. As long as there is no progress, the longer this meaningless search continues, the less good it will be for us. “That’s it.”

It wasn’t wrong. Because unless Lee Jeong-pil comes back, we have to find him first before he finds the city.

“ah. Now that I think about it, there’s one more thing I’d like to tell you… .”

When Han So-young nodded her head a couple of times as if she sympathized, Cho Seong-ho, who was still looking at Han So-young, opened his mouth once more.

“I would like to request a change to the current deployment of the expedition. “Starting today, I want Dongbu to take the lead.”

“Please. Then let us in the South move to the center.”

Jo Seong-ho’s smile grew brighter. Although it was only for a moment, I felt dazed. Before even understanding Cho Seong-ho’s words, Han So-young gave permission in just one second. As if you were expecting that.

For a moment, I wanted to ask what that meant, but I couldn’t bring myself to take action. Because Han So-young was stopping me by sending some kind of signal.

“thank you. In fact, it was quite difficult because the users were so noisy, but I will take responsibility for the eastern part and calm them down.”

I was finally able to understand Cho Seong-ho’s true intentions. In other words, it was a deal. They said they would not make this public until they found the city, so they asked for a leadership position. In the future, the purpose was to gain the justification that Dongbu took the lead in visiting the city.

“Then we will march out soon. “Our eastern region has already made all preparations, so please prepare as quickly as possible.”

Jo Seong-ho spoke quietly, looked around slowly, and then turned his back without saying another word. Since Cho Seong-ho left, his quiet silence has fallen. I felt strangely uncomfortable, but eventually I had no choice but to turn around to get ready.

Suddenly, I felt that I missed someone very much.

‘If Ansol had been there at a time like this… .’

*

Some time had passed since the users of the Northern Continent began their advance.

In another dimension, Deunghwal Hell, a scene reminiscent of chaos was created. The space where the devil’s army and the army of hell faced each other was literally nothing more or less than hell. Screams echo from all directions and blood spurts out. The monsters, already swept up in the madness of the battlefield, were concentrating only on biting and tearing each other to pieces, with all reason thrown aside.

Among them, the one who displayed the most overwhelming performance was, of course, the Archduke of Hell.

The Duke of Hell didn’t show any particularly flashy abilities like he did at first. He was just using the fire whip in one hand to deal with the demons that were coming in like a swarm of bees.

Nevertheless, it is by far showing off the best presence. With each flick of her whip, she sweeps away her demons like toys. The highest level demons, who were rated just below the 14 demon lords, were no exception. He screams in pain as the hellish fire transfers to him and turns into a handful of ashes.

Astaroth, looking at the Duke of Hell like that, felt his stomach tightening every moment. Aside from Beelzebub preparing his warship, himself, Asmodeus, and Baal, who had been resurrected after sacrificing one of his lives, were also participating in the battle.

However, he was avoiding battle with the Prince of Hell. The great demons were moving so that Beelzebub could complete the formation, the 14 demon lords were in charge of checks, and the demons were in charge of direct combat with the Duke of Hell.

In the first place, there was no expectation that the demons could deal with the Prince of Hell. Since the completion of Jin was the top priority, the intention was to buy time somehow. However, the number of demons has noticeably decreased. Of course, the great demons also destroyed the hell demons, but even now, Astaroth couldn’t shake off the eerie feeling as he watched his minions being burned. Because the current Grand Duke of Hell… .

Shall you complete the camp first?

Or should I destroy these guys first?

As he said, it seemed as if he was enjoying some kind of entertainment. And that at the risk of the lives of the great demons.

When the Grand Duke of Hell was wandering across the battlefield with an expressionless face.

“Cha, activate the dimensional movement circle!”

Finally, a voice with a slightly reluctant tone shook the hell out of me.

Oooooh!

Then, a solemn sound filled the space from all over Hell, and the flowing magic power began to shake violently.

The identity of the voice was Beelzebub. Even in the midst of confusion, the dimensional movement group was somehow completed. Soon, the shaking magic power seeped deep into the ground and the dimensional movement circle slowly began to activate.

However, Beelzebub, who had completed the formation, did not look so good. He was doubtful and unsure of his success.

It has to be that way. In the first place, it is absurd to complete a formation in such a crowded battlefield, and even if it is completed, a large formation such as a dimensional movement formation requires step-by-step procedures to activate. In other words, it was not activated immediately, but some time was needed between the first turn and the final coordinates.

Grumble, murmur!

The dimensional transporter finally started to turn. The moment the magical power that had seeped into him began to fluctuate all at once, Beelzebub felt a huge shock enter his body. Her face automatically distorted. The fact that a direct shock, rather than just pressure, was delivered meant that the dimensional movement group could not follow normal procedures until it was activated. Due to the hasty construction, it was clear that something had gone wrong somewhere.

However, the Jin has already been activated and there is no turning back now. Beelzebub gritted his teeth, feeling as if his cells were boiling. And the moment he entered the second procedure, he gave the order to the demons to be used as sacrifices to move.

Then the waiting demons began to move quickly. One after another, they enter the space secured by the great demons and begin to fill in Jin’s components. Thus, the demons who completed their movement in a short time were already forming a formation in all directions with Beelzebub at the center.

After completing the second procedure, Beelzebub immediately entered the third procedure, ‘opening the dimensional gate.’ Once this third procedure is completed, only the final procedure, ‘coordinate designation’, remains.

Therefore, Beelzebub accelerated the chanting of the spell even though he felt the inside of his body becoming shaken. The more this happened, the louder the sound that filled the hell of the back was becoming stronger.

Then, did the Grand Duke of Hell feel something strange?

The Duke of Hell, who was in the midst of crushing the demons, suddenly looked around at the unusual energy that was wafting out. And the moment I checked the demons standing everywhere, my eyes widened at the scene that followed.

Puddle, puddle, puddle, puddle!

The bodies of the demons spread out all over the place suddenly explode and turn into blood. The blood mixed with the flesh that had turned into liquid flowed along the jin and began to shed a reddish light.

“Hoo… !”

The first exclamation came from the mouth of the Duke of Hell upon seeing this. For the first time, an interesting light appears on my previously bored face. Of course, this was not something Beelzebub would like at all.

Quarrrrrrrrr!

That’s because the Duke of Hell, who was intrigued, spewed out explosive flames from his entire body. And without hesitation, I turned around and started flying towards Beelzebub.

“Cluck, cluck, cluck!”

Beelzebub, who had just completed the third procedure, spit out black blood from his mouth. If he could, he would have hurled a bowlful of curses at the Prince of Hell. The dimensional movement, which was already very unstable, was completely out of balance when the Duke of Hell started to run amok. As a result, the burden was further increased on Beelzebub, who was trying to forcefully maintain the camp.

That wasn’t all.

Beelzebub instinctively felt that the Prince of Hell was targeting him. The thick life I felt all over his body gave me goosebumps. He felt as if he was on the verge of death.

The moment I finally felt the presence of the Great Duke of Hell that had flown a short distance away, I then saw that the three Great Demons who came in to stop me were all thrown away.

“… … !”

Beelzebub just closed his eyes tightly. He was almost at the end of the dimensional movement and had no time to worry about anything else, and he knew that the only way for him to survive now was to activate the movement as quickly as even a second later. The moment you face that terrifying Duke of Hell and make a mistake, not only will you die, but all the sacrifices you have made so far will be in vain.

Seeing Beelzebub desperately chanting the spell, the Duke of Hell stretched out his hand with an expression filled with joy. As if he were going to pierce and twist his neck just as he had done to Baal.

“Now this is some fun! “Just give it a try!”

The cry of the Duke of Hell rings in Beelzebub’s ears.

It was that moment.

Faaah!

In a single explosion of light that erupted from the ground, a brilliant cluster of lights large enough to fill the entire section colored the hell.

GGGGGGGGGGGG!

Strange, indescribable noises and scenes of space being distorted and twisted are produced everywhere.

and.

“Kell!”

Beelzebub’s eyes widened.

Sigh!

It was almost at the same time that the Archduke of Hell’s hand was stuck around his neck. Soon, Beelzebub, whose entire body is on fire, falls down, and a cloud of light embraces the Duke of Hell.

The dimensional movement began to shake.

Meanwhile, at the same time.

devildom.

“The activation of the dimensional shift circle has been confirmed!”

“… Ok, fine.”

When Belial shouted in an urgent voice, Satan jumped up from his seat as if he had been waiting for this moment.

Then, after looking back at the chained demon on the right, he quietly opened his mouth.

“Then, we will also carry out the arrangement.”

Atlanta.

As Kim Soo-hyun expected, the city was indeed right around the corner. The Northern Continent Expeditionary Force was able to leave the grassland not long after its advance. And after entering the next area, a blood-red wasteland with much less grass than the grassland, less than 10 minutes later, I was able to discover a huge tower standing alone.

When Cho Seong-ho gave instructions to investigate the tower in detail, users with the ability to interpret archaic language rushed out and attempted to interpret it. As a result, it was soon discovered that the tower discovered was a signpost that showed the distance and direction to the city.

Normally, users would probably have cheered and rejoiced once again. Because I confirmed that there really was a city, and that it was close.

But reality was cold. Is it right to say that I am worried? All relevant users already knew that Lee Jeong-pil deserted early this morning. Therefore, rather than the joy of confirming the existence of the city, I was worried that the archer might have discovered it and arrived there first.

Cho Seong-ho, who read the users’ concerns, immediately announced his intention to force a march. And he moved to the forefront as if he would not allow any objections. Of course, in such an urgent situation, there was no reason for users to refuse at all.

“I… . Clan Lord. But will you be okay?”

After the forced march began, the man who followed Cho Seong-ho to the front spoke cautiously. Jo Seong-ho rolled his eyes.

“What’s okay?”

“This is a forced march. Wouldn’t it be right to inform the rear expedition team and ask for their understanding? .”

Then Jo Seong-ho burst out laughing and shrugged his shoulders.

“As long as we are the vanguard unit, it doesn’t really matter, right? “I think it will follow on its own.”

Jo Seong-ho spoke in a confident voice. Of course, I had my own thoughts. In any case, the speed of the advance is determined by the expedition team at the forefront, and even if a protest is made due to a sudden forced march, it is enough to cite the desertion incident. ‘The moment I discovered the milestone, I thought I had to find it as quickly as even a second later.’ If you answer, you will probably become a dumb person.

In fact, Cho Seong-ho was very grateful to the user named Lee Jeong-pil who caused this desertion incident. Thanks to this, Dongbu, which had been treated as an outcast, raised its voice for an instant, and further, ‘Dongbu discovered a city for the first time.’ It also allowed us to hold a justification. Since he arrived in Atlanta, they have created a situation where he can secure a spot, so how could he not be grateful. I felt like I wanted to at least shower him with a kiss of gratitude.

“… “Kick.”

Jo Seong-ho burst out laughing lightly. Then he lowered his head and opened his mouth, looking at the man who still had a worried look on his face.

“Don’t worry. “You won’t be able to protest in particular because of what they have done in the northwest.”

“… … .”

“I was lucky to find the milestone as soon as I replaced it. So we just need to quickly find the city. “It’s enough to just celebrate your arrival for the first time.”

“… “I am the Clan Lord.”

It was then. The man who kept walking with his head down suddenly called out to Cho Seong-ho in a serious voice. Then he made a strange expression and stopped walking. When Cho Seong-ho, who became increasingly serious, stopped walking, the forced march naturally also stopped.

“huh? “What’s wrong with you all of a sudden?”

Jo Seong-ho asked in a puzzled voice. The man blinked at her three or four times and then pointed down at her with her trembling hand.

“here… .”

“Hey, why are you doing that?”

“The smell of blood… . Doesn’t it come out?”

“… what?”

When the man finally opened his mouth, Cho Seong-ho’s eyebrows furrowed. Because he suddenly wondered what he was talking about. But he didn’t seem to be lying. Soon, I lowered my gaze in the direction the man was pointing, and the first sight of the blood-red wasteland came into view.

Cho Seong-ho slowly bent one knee without realizing it. Then he lowered his hand and slowly swept the ground.

I didn’t know much at first. I was in a hurry to find the city as soon as possible, and the wasteland was blood-red, so I couldn’t find anything unusual.

But upon closer inspection, something definitely started to appear strange. Just as the man said, there is also a faint smell of blood… .

“This… .”

Above all, the soil on the ground is strange. The soil I held in my hand was clearly red soil. However, when I held the dirt and rubbed my hands a few times, I felt something unpleasant and sticky. As if touching slightly hardened blood. Before I knew it, my hands were covered in dark red marks, as if they were just rubbing dirt.

The entire surrounding area is a bloody wasteland. When I first came in, I couldn’t sense anything strange, but only in this area was there a faint smell of blood.

The moment he recognized that fact, Cho Seong-ho’s intuition rang an alarm.

… So, something is strange.

Jo Seong-ho, who thought so, got up and thought it would be a good idea to step down.

But does Jo Seong-ho know?

The fact that Lee Jeong-pil, arranged by Satan, has already completed some action in the surrounding land.

And, it’s too late.

Flash!

As I was about to quickly get up, a red light suddenly appeared from the ground for a moment and then disappeared.

“ah?”

At the same time, a strong feeling of dizziness attacked Cho Seong-ho’s mind.

And after a while.

There was a change in Cho Seong-ho’s behavior. His knees, which had been half straightened, were bent helplessly, and his body stumbled greatly.

Jo Seong-ho tried to come to his senses somehow, but before he had time to think, his ears went blank and he heard a strange noise.

My vision suddenly began to dance left and right, and at some point it turned red. The whole world is colored in blood and flows slowly, to the point where you wonder if your eyeballs are soaked with blood.

There were no signs or omens. All Jo Seong-ho saw was blood on the ground and a brief flash of red. At the very least, I couldn’t even feel the flow of magical power until then.

But, but… .

Suddenly, Cho Seong-ho felt that his entire body had no strength.

After seeing the flash, did a minute pass? Something is spinning. My vision, which had been red, had suddenly become blurry and dark to the point where I could see shapes blurry. I can feel the magic power that filled the circuit just a moment ago being drained away regardless of my will.

Now I’m wondering, ‘How did this happen?’ I don’t even think so. Even when I see someone lying on the dirt floor that briefly passes my eye, I don’t feel much emotion. The fatigue that came over my whole body made me forget everything.

In the end, the thought that came to my mind was, ‘I want to rest.’ Surrendering himself to the thought, Cho Seong-ho closed his eyes. Right now, without even knowing what was happening around me.

The last thing we could see was Jo Seong-ho, who was slowly falling apart.

It was a reddish-golden shape that gave off enough light to brighten up the dark field of vision.

I’ll sleep first. I think I need to sleep… . ㅜ.ㅠ
