Episode 1168
Dark Union headquarters <A1>.
Truce period.
“For victory!”
Jjaeng!
Jang!
The Dark Alliance representatives sitting around the large table in the main mansion clinked glasses and laughed boisterously.
The first day was clearly an overwhelming victory for the Dark Alliance team.
We couldn’t drink because there was a battle tomorrow, but we filled our glasses with drinks to brighten the mood, and among the remaining food, we even prepared a chicken dish, which was a rare treat.
Chatelle, who consumed the most jet black, and Elijah, who had no interest in group activities in the first place, went in first and fell asleep, and everyone else stayed here.
“Simon! Thank you for your hard work!”
Camivarez, sitting next to me, said with sparkling eyes.
“I really didn’t think I would be able to kill the Ancient Underling on my own!”
“Thanks to the Legion, well.”
Simon answered softly.
Meilin, who was sitting across from me, brushed her hair.
“Simon is great, but I don’t think the Holy Federation’s No. 1 is formidable either. “They caught the Ancient Underling right there.”
Claudia also said something.
“It would be ideal to avoid the Star Maiden as much as possible and win through a conquest battle.”
Everyone was excited and talked about various things. In fact, during the battle with the Messiah Goblin, I keenly felt how dangerous the priest’s divinity was, and there were times when I felt a little discouraged. There was also fear that we could really win.
But it was a huge win from the first day. The start was so good. Simon’s bold strategy worked.
“Then, shall we briefly summarize the situation?”
What was gained from the first day’s fighting is as follows.
First, the occupation of the headquarters of the Holy Federation. This directly broke the morale of the federal team, which was aiming for a complete victory, and placed extreme pressure on them.
Second, Claudia caused damage to various facilities and their equipment, including the building at the base. There was a variety of equipment at the base, including Woton’s torture devices, Arendia’s barrier device, and Rephaim’s relics.
Third, the identity of ‘Vala Mortifer’, one of the Holy Federation’s powerful victory plans, was discovered.
Fourth, the neutralization of the Holy Federation’s No. 7 Warton Spranger.
In order to use divinity, it is important to maintain a strong belief and mentality, but if he has gone through something like that, it will be difficult for Warton to demonstrate his skills in the Rune League.
Although the number of occupied territories is currently tied at 3:3, considering the results achieved, it was a great advantage to have the same number of occupied territories as the Holy Federation.
“Senior Azel.”
Simon called him.
Azel, who was slurping and eating soup, said, ‘Ugh, yes!’ He smiled.
It was fun to see the seven people suddenly become nervous as they showed MVP-level performance today.
“Could you please share the information obtained from the Holy Federation headquarters?”
“Ah, well then! of course!”
First, Eisel explained in detail about ‘Bala Mortifer’, which was Wotton’s secret technique and the Holy Federation’s victory plan.
The identity of the skill is a white magic that inflicts the same pain and wounds received by the caster to enemies within the range of the magic circle.
It was a brutal effect for a priest’s white magic, and if I hadn’t known about it, several people might have been affected at once. I was glad I figured it out on the first day.
“I was so horrified when Wotton shouted, ‘Kill me!’”
As if recalling that time, Camivarez grabbed my shoulder and trembled.
“… … “The back of my head still hurts.”
Claudia said, rubbing the back of her head.
“To return to the explanation, Warton needs two people to properly use this powerful technique.”
Azel spread his two fingers and continued.
“Number 3 Tergon and Number 4 Rephaim.”
“I understand that there needs to be a Rephaim majoring in healing, but-”
Hector, who was listening to the story, glared at him with wide eyes.
“Tergon number 3 is a guardian major, so why is he needed?”
Hehehe.
Azel, who made eye contact with Hector, shook his head with a frightened expression. Simon quickly smiled and said.
“haha! “Hector is not angry, he is purely curious.”
Hector’s dissatisfied eyes turned to Simon, but Simon waved it away with a smile. Azel said, gaining courage again.
“hmm! Actually, it’s a really important question. I checked this time and Mortifer does not affect allies or divine users. There was also Arendia number 9 in the area, and Arendia was fine. however!”
Azel clapped his hands.
“I took at least as much damage as Tergon number 3.”
Just before Wotton used Mortifer, Tergon used some of his skills on Wotton.
And Tergon received some of the damage that Warton received. Mortifer is a skill that does not originally cause damage to allies.
“You said that!”
Maylin suddenly got up from her seat.
“Are you saying Tergon also has damage sharing technology or something?”
“That’s what I think.”
Immediately after using Mortifer, Wotton rushed at himself with four torture devices in the mood to be outed.
It’s a kind of self-destructor.
If we assume that Tergon’s skill here is a damage sharing skill that takes some of Warton’s damage, regardless of Mortifer, then Warton barely survives and is healed by Rephaim, and only the four necromancers are out after receiving a blow that is close to instant death.
It is truly a cost-free, instant kill.
It wasn’t the Holy Federation’s victory plan for nothing.
Claudia, who was listening to the story, blinked and said.
“But did Tergon receive the damage sharing effect? “You looked fine when you got hit in the back of the head.”

Azel scratched the back of his head.
“I-I’m sorry. Actually, I was curious so I did a small experiment.”
“?”
Azel raised his hand.
“Do you have a wound on your arm?”
“ah!”
Unbeknownst to Camivarez and Claudia, both had thin cuts on their arms. It’s almost healed now.
“When Warton was casting Mortifer, he raised the wind blade weakly and caused a small wound on his arm. Wotton and Uri were bruised almost immediately, and Tergon’s arm was bruised a little later. Of course, the wounds on Tergon and Warton’s arms were smaller than ours.”
“If you have this much specific information, it’s clear!”
Tergon, the guardian of the federal team, possesses ‘damage sharing technology’. Although it was not a dangerous skill like Mortifer, there is a big difference between knowing it and not knowing it.
“I think it will be an important clue to conquering Tergon number 3.”
“That’s amazing, Senior Azel! “You’ve almost figured out the key points of numbers 3 and 7!”
While everyone was talking excitedly, Simon was alone in his thoughts.
‘… … Wotton is a member of the Heresy Inquisitor. He said he wasn’t from Fnel.’
What if you have Wotton cast Mortifer on the Dark Alliance, and someone from the Holy Federation kills Wotton with too much force?
It is truly mass murder. The conclusion of the Rune League will lead to catastrophe, and there is no doubt that a war will break out between the two forces.
“Simon? “What are you thinking?”
Simon came to his senses at Meilin’s question and smiled, ‘Ah’.
“I was thinking about Mortifer. The conditions of the victory plan have been revealed, but let’s be more vigilant in times like this. Even if Tergon or Rephaim are not present, or even if Warton is alone, you must not let down your guard. From now on, Wotton is the first priority.”
Everyone nodded.
“On the second day, let’s shake up the Holy Federation by maximizing our advantage. “It would be better to just come up with a detailed plan and focus your attention slowly.”
Meilin raised her glass.
“I should have a drink before that! For the win!”
Everyone laughed loudly and raised their glasses. * * *
Same time.
Holy Federation headquarters <7A>.
Ugh. Sigh.
Although a difficult battle had just ended, the representatives of the Holy Federation could not rest.
Number 6, Hamiel, was wiping the mold on the walls of the mansion with a wet mop. Then, after taking a deep breath, Ah! He shouted.
“I can’t even rest. What is this?”
The Holy Federation’s headquarters and mansion were in disarray.
There were mold and stains all over the walls, and dirty, pitch-black slime-like things were stuck to the ceiling.
Looking at the broken window on one side of the mansion and the potion bottles lying around, it seemed like the Dark Alliance’s poison magician had thrown these things into the mansion.
“Claudia, Number 9 of the Dark Alliance! Su Guan can never forgive!”
Pap-duk!
She gritted her teeth once and looked back.
“Above all, you too, reflect! Wotton! Arendia!”
Wotton was purifying the polluted floor with sanctity, looking almost dead, while Arendia was hammering indifferently.
The atmosphere of the Holy Federation national team was the worst.
The main camp was taken over once by the Dark Alliance, and they were at their mercy throughout the first day. Worton even showed Mortifer, the entire Federation’s victory plan and one of its secrets, to the Necromancers from day one.
The mansion was a mess, and everyone was cleaning up after the golden six-hour truce period without being able to sleep.
My condition would naturally deteriorate the next day, and as a result of the many problems piling up, I could have been dragged along by the Dark Alliance’s pace throughout the Rune League. I inserted the first button incorrectly.
“Enough with this story.”
Lete Chardena, the first member of the Holy Federation and who made the biggest contribution on the first day by successfully hunting down the Ancient Underling, opened her mouth.
“Didn’t you say that 4 people came here? “No matter who was there, there was no choice but to break through.”
“Well, if the saint says so… … .”
Hamiel wrinkled again and lowered his head.
Surprisingly, Lethe’s face, which I thought would get very angry, was so calm.
“And, Wotton, there is no need to be discouraged by the sight of Mortifer. Now the Dark Alliance will be extremely wary of your technology, so we can take advantage of that and gain the upper hand.”
“… … Ah, I understand.”
Wotton nodded with an expression of emotion.
“What about food?”
In response to Lethe’s question, Lisara, who was in the kitchen, popped her head out.
“The drinking water may be purified, but the food will end up with mold and bacteria.”
She continued, showing the bread and meat that were stained black.
“I don’t know if it will be enough to last until 5 days. Shall we purify it?”
“Save your strength. There isn’t enough divinity to use in battle. Cut off the contaminated part and eat it. “I will reduce the amount of food I eat for a while.”
She turned her head and looked at Arendia this time.
“Where to sleep?”
“… … I will pitch a tent. We can’t let saints sleep in a place like this. “I will quickly build a new mansion by the second day.”
“That’s enough. “A sleeping bag will do.”
Lethe waved her hand.
“Is a saint a saint in this day and age? Tactical weapons base. Since we’re not going on a field trip for a day or two, a tent and a sleeping bag are enough.”
“but… … .”
“Now, everyone pay attention.”
When Lethe raised her voice, the representatives of the Holy Federation stopped what they were doing and turned their heads.
“There is nothing downside. The occupied territory is 3:3, and I also killed both Ancient Underlings. “Our main base was briefly occupied, but we quickly regained it.”
She clenched her chin.
“Distrust and anxiety are what necromancers want. In the first place, did anyone seriously believe that they could defeat Keygen’s necromancers ‘absolutely’? “That is truly belittling the other person.”
Everyone’s eyes widened.
The ‘complete victory’ announced by Sky Island and forced upon its representatives.
Even though she knew that the entire situation of the Rune League would be revealed to the people of the continent, Lethe outright denied it.
The reason she said that was, of course, the responsibility of a leader. Even though it would have been easier to blame Wotton for all her crimes, she did not do so.
“Whether it is on a well-paved marble road or a muddy mud road, we just need to do our job firmly.”
She turned her head and looked at one person.
“Isn’t that so? Rephaim.”
Number 4 Rephaim Medel nodded with a stern face.
“Laus, Asentior. That’s right.”
The Holy Federation’s strategist and strategist was number 4 Rephaim Medel.
Her carelessness in her role as a strategist was partly responsible for the fall of the main camp.
On the other hand, Lethe showed excellent judgment and leadership as a commander and leader. Lethe is doing his part. He had to put his mind back together again, if only for Lethe’s sake.
“… … “The strategy was a mess from the beginning, but I will maintain the same direction.”
She raised her head.
“We will again move forward, step by step, firmly, toward the victory we believe in.”
Lethe and the others nodded emphatically. Tergon, sitting nearby, looked dissatisfied with something, but he was quietly cleaning his equipment.
“First of all, Brother Moze.”
At Rephaim’s words, the man who had been sitting in front of the window looking up at the lake suddenly looked back.
“why?”
“It was a good thing that we took over two of the Dark Alliance’s territories, but you need to make proper moves soon.”
She continued.
“Like yesterday, I will give you individual authority to act, but I will also give you one mission.”
“what?”
Huh.
Rephaim exhaled with a nervous look on his face.
“On the second day, you must catch number 3 Azel Bringer. “No matter what it takes.”
