I was quick to read and judge the situation around me.
And the top priority was to estimate the number of enemies through the size of the dust clouds coming from all directions and the intensity of vibrations transmitted from the ground.
‘At least one day. ‘Nothing less than that.’
Naturally, the situation was not good.
Even just guessing, the number was more than three times that of our troops.
Moreover, even at this very moment, the enemies that are getting closer by the minute are monsters that neither get tired nor die easily.
‘There might even be other mutants like him among them.’
I turned my head and looked.
The body of a giant who was completely dead, with his head split in half.
I can assure you that the identity of that gigantic monster is neither a troll nor an ogre.
Even in the monster encyclopedia, which records all the types of monsters that have appeared since the cataclysm that plunged the 21st century modern world into an abyss of chaos, there is no such monster.
As I recited in my mind earlier, it was truly a being that could be described as a mutant.
Like other monsters that appeared in the martial arts world at some point.
‘Yes, it’s the same flow as then.’
This is not the first time a mutant has appeared.
Similar things happened in Hubei and Nanman Beast Palace.
And I clearly remember that at the center of it all, there were always the followers of the Lord of Heaven and the ‘crack’ they brought about.
‘That doesn’t mean… … .’
An ominous thought suddenly crossed my mind.
But I soon shook my head and broke off my thoughts.
Even if all the thoughts that came to mind a moment ago were true, the priority right now was to defeat the enemies in front of me.
“Samapyo, Jeongho-gun.”
I suddenly opened my mouth and continued speaking while looking straight at the two people.
“From now on, I will take charge of left and right respectively.”
Sima Piao and Jeong Ho, who bowed their heads in silence, immediately moved.
They each have a thousand subordinates, and from now on they will become the two wings of our army.
In this urgent situation, he was the one who delayed the time, but at the same time, by an amazing coincidence, he was with a certain supreme expert who gave him time to prepare to meet the enemies.
“Big man.”
“huh? me? Can’t I leave out? “I don’t have any ill feelings towards them.”
“f*ck you, Daein.”
“… … “Where can I go?”
“Left and right. Please take turns helping the one in need.”
“Okay. “I understand.”
With this, both wings of our allies will become sharper and stronger.
Although his spirit may come and go, as long as the supreme master holds on, he will never be easily broken down.
“What should I do with the frequency?”
I immediately answered the question of Hyeoncheonjin, Jangmun-in of the communal faction.
“Jang Mun-in, please take charge of the rear along with the disciples of the Gongong Sect.”
“It is unfortunate that the leader was lost to the Jongnam faction, but in the current situation, the text must play the most important role. “I understand what Do-woo means.”
In a situation where the enemy’s siege is somewhat established, the rear is more important than the vanguard.
In that sense, Hyeoncheonjin was a person who had an understanding of tactics, unlike ordinary martial arts people.
It was Noh Kang-ho, who fought through the great war called the Battle of Jeongma with his whole body, and that is why he easily realized my intention.
Of course, even Hyeoncheonjinin did not see everything through.
“Seonbong is not Jongnam.”
“What is that?”
Leaving behind Hyeoncheonjin, who looked puzzled for a moment, I called out to the person holding the sword with a nervous look on his face.
“Hyeok So-pyeong. You and the Jongnam faction will also help the Joint faction and take charge of the rear.”
Jongnam Ilyong (終南一龍) Hyuk So-pyeong.
Instead of the Windyun Sword Army, who had no choice but to remain in Gansu due to being seriously injured in the battle at Daeseol Mountain, the man who was leading the surviving disciples of the Zhongnan Sect opened his eyes wide.
No, it wasn’t just Hyuk So-pyeong, it was the reaction of everyone around me who were paying close attention to my every word.
“Then the vanguard… … .”
At that moment, when Hyuk So-pyeong was speechless, someone’s loud voice pierced everyone’s ears.
“What did you do to fall asleep? “Without falling into the backwater.”
Hwawang (火王) Jeokcheongang.
It was him.
And next to the giant who violently left his footprints in this vast forest, there was a woman who went beyond the king and came to be called a star.
Crash.
Everyone fell silent at the sight of Gungseong silently connecting two curved swords to complete a gigantic bow.
Who are they?
It is a palace with the Hwawang.
He is the king of kings with the most violent fire, a star of the world’s martial arts world who dominated numerous battlefields with a single bow, and a living legend of the martial arts world.
also.
Jerk.
I also earned the right to be with them.
At this moment, it has become a symbol of walking towards the Fire King and the palace.
Although it is a little smaller than them and still weaker.
I, Jin Tae-kyung, the fire god dragon, was another giant who arose in this shitty war.
Googoo googung!

The ground trembles. No, I struggle.
This reed forest, which was open in all directions except for one low hill behind it, was soon surrounded by a thick cloud of dust.
No, we are surrounded by monsters that we don’t know where they come from or what they are.
but.
“Are there still people who are scared of those things?”
I’m not afraid of them.
The only thing I fear is the misfortune of someone dying because of my mistake.
“If you are afraid, if you want to escape, withdraw from the battle line now. “I will never criticize you.”
All my words were sincere.
Everyone has a family and something to protect.
There is no cowardice in survival.
If there is someone who wants to return alive, I will gladly protect them.
Just as someone did for me in that dark, smelly cave all those years ago.
And now by my side, there were people worth risking their lives to protect.
“Hey, what is life? “I’ve been following the leader’s tail, so now I’m not scared even when the Cheonma Chaebi shows up.”
At a time when everyone was laughing at the words Hyuk Mu-jin blurted out, the guy added quietly.
“I will follow. Even to the end of hell.”
“… … !”
“… … !”
For an instant, the surrounding air rang.
At this moment, it seemed as if the huge echoes that covered all directions and the cries of monsters echoing beyond them had been erased from this world.
At the same time, a wave of steel arose that drove them all away.
Cha-cha-cha-chang!
Everyone raised their weapons in their hands and shouted.
Forgetting their physical fatigue and the fear caused by monsters they had never seen before, they roared like wild beasts and stared into the shimmering darkness.
Thinking about why they had to be here, thinking about the faces they missed and lost to those bastards.
And at the forefront of them is me.
“Just keep two things in mind.”
I continued speaking as I walked toward the vanguard.
“first. Maintain the current formation under any circumstances.”
How dare you!
Waves of human beings splitting as they move forward.
In addition, an empty space appears beyond it.
Unlike other places where 1,000 troops had gathered, the empty place looked like a huge hole that could be demolished at any moment, but not anymore.
“second.”
Sabak.
I stepped on a reed and stopped in place.
On the left is Gungseong Fortress and on the right is Jeokcheongang River.
And behind the three of us, the members of Hwaryongak followed me as if it was a given.
Although the number of people is less than a handful, that alone filled the empty space at the top and completed a group.
“No matter what, I will definitely survive.”
That’s when I uttered the last word.
Okay!
With a roar that felt like the sky was splitting apart, countless shadows poured down, covering the entire area.
Towards Wonwonjin (元型陳) consisting of about 3,000 elites.
No, towards this great wheel armed with steel.
Shhh, quaang!
The moment when the beam of light that left Gungseong’s fingertips exploded, tearing through the darkness.
Quad deuk!
The steel, wheel of death has finally come into contact with monsters that are not of this world.
rattle.
The ominous yet haunting sound of bells was echoing beyond the swirling blood.
* * *
They existed in thick darkness.
No, maybe, at least at this moment, they were the darkness itself.
Because they were not simply hiding in the dark, they were using the darkness as a curtain to cover their bodies.
Even if each person did not completely cover their entire body in black clothing, there were very few people who could see through the curtain surrounding them and peek inside.
And those who could pose such a threat were in the midst of fighting countless monsters hundreds of miles away.
To be exact, they were subordinates who moved according to their control.
rattle.
The man in black waved the sword in his hand.
The sound of the bell flowing from the old, dark box was dull, but at the same time, it was clearly spreading out and conveying other commands and information.
Just like the other companions of the man in black who are hiding at a certain distance in all directions.
“It’s finally started.”
Quaaaang!
The man in black muttered softly as he saw a flash of light accompanied by a roar in the distance.
It was impossible to make an accurate judgment based on the sound alone due to the constant screaming from the monsters, but the beam of light that clearly came from the palace was evidence that the battle had begun.
“It’s not the location we were aiming for, but… … “But I guess it’s fortunate that we have a proper siege net in place.”
I felt sorry for the person in black.
Some angle.
If they had moved faster and escaped the reed forest, he and his comrades would have been able to start the battle in a much more advantageous position.
“But it already happened. “There’s nothing you can do.”
The battle had already begun, and the roles given to the thirty magicians, including the man in black, were clear.
“Reduce their number as much as possible and, if possible, capture Jin Tae-kyung alive.”
The man in black, who had quietly recited the command he had received from his blood lord just half a day ago, frowned.
“Captured alive, not even killed.”
As a person in black who had obtained information about the enemy prior to giving the order, it sounded like nonsense.
Among them, there are as many as six transcendental masters, and two of them are even Hwawang and Gungseong.
If you focus on just one Jin Tae-kyung and pour all your power into it, you may have a good chance of killing him, but capturing him alive was a very difficult mission.
“Damn it.”
The man in black, who inadvertently swore at the blood master, instinctively swallowed his breath and looked around.
But as always, there were only monsters standing there blankly, giving off a terrible stench.
“… … “That sucks.”
The man in black looked at his subordinates with an irritated voice and eyes.
I hated seeing myself trembling in fear of my blood master who was far away, and seeing those monsters who had lost their senses and only gave off a bad smell, especially today.
“They seem like stupid things.”
rattle.
When the man in black waved his hand in a gesture as if swatting away a fly, the one hundred monsters that had surrounded the owner for protection stepped back without hesitation.
To be exact, from what the man in black knew, that was how it had to be.
Jerk.
“… … ?”
The man in black blinked.
While the ninety-nine monsters were taking steps backwards, I was looking at the one monster that was taking steps forward alone.
“No, what is this?”
While the man in black couldn’t find anything to say, the monster, who belatedly realized the situation he was in, wriggled his butt and said this.
“Wow, wow. amazing. “This is your first time seeing a monster like this, right?”
“… … !”
“Well, it’s my first time too, Mr. A.”
The monster who continued speaking in a trembling voice, or rather, someone who was obviously a person, sighed with tears in his eyes.
