‘How on earth did they get in here? No, that’s not what’s important right now.’
Even though we don’t know how they intruded, the immediate priority is to subdue them.
Also, this research center had to be abandoned since its location had already been discovered.
Yang Yibaek gave urgent instructions to the researchers.
“While the security personnel deal with the clowns, the researchers secure important samples and data and organize the rest. In the worst case scenario, take only the unknown egg and the princess team leader and evacuate!”
“Yes, team leader!”
While everyone was scattering in a hurried manner according to the instructions, Yang Yibaek grabbed the bed where the princess was lying.
As I tried to drag the bed towards the emergency exit, the princess began to writhe violently.
“Team Leader Yang, let go of this! I’ll join in too… …!”
“If Team Leader Gong runs away, it’ll be more difficult. You had a hard time filling the magic restraint. Get some sleep.”
Yang Baek took out a syringe to administer a sedative to the princess.
The top priority was to safely transport the princess who was to become the vessel immediately.
At that moment, the princess’s eyes opened wide and she was about to shout something.
[The ability ‘Iron Wall’ is activated!]
-Kaga River!
A sharp metallic sound rang out as an iron barrier rose from the ground.
An invisible sword slashed through the barrier.
If things had gone as planned, this would have been an attack that would have taken Yang Yibaek’s head off.
‘Even if you use a hermit, it detects you.’
Seo Kang-rim approached him using ‘Hermit’ and killing all signs of movement, but Yang Yi-baek was already aware of the subtle change in the air.
As soon as he exhaled, the next attack followed.
-Kwak-kwak!
A horned pillar made of iron began to rise from the ground towards Seo Kang-rim.
He tried to dodge the attacks and approach Yang Baek, but Yang Baek did not give him an opening.
“Jester, how did you get here?”
Because he was wearing a mask, it seemed like they couldn’t figure out Seo Kang-rim’s identity.
When Seo Kang-rim did not answer, Yang Yi-baek spoke while twisting his neck to both sides.
“Ha, are you being ridiculous? You really are annoying me in so many ways.”
Instead of any sense of urgency, Yang Baek’s face showed only slight irritation and fatigue.
It was a weariness that came from the arrogance that one could never lose, no matter who the opponent was.
He glared at Seo Kang-rim with sharp eyes.
“Let’s capture him alive and hear his story.”
[The ability ‘Swamp’ is activated!]
As soon as Yang Baek finished speaking, something sticky started to pull Seo Kang Rim’s feet.
The ground that had been solid until just a moment ago began to sink like a swamp.
Before his body was dragged away, Seo Kang-rim jumped towards the wall and checked the situation.
‘Not only in this room, but the ability has been activated throughout the laboratory.’
It was clear that Seo Kang-rim’s clones were also in the same situation.
There were also a few clones who missed the timing and were dragged under the ground.
During this time, the researchers were not affected by the swamping.
It was a highly advanced spell that was only cast on enemies, not allies.
-Goooooo… … !
Meanwhile, something like a lump of mud began to form on the ground.
It looks like a giant, distorted clay doll, crushed and twisted.
Yang Baek-i, holding the princess in his arms, spoke to the lumps of mud.
“Secure it.”
-Goooooo!
As soon as the order was given, lumps of mud rushed towards Seo Kang-rim.
Seo Kang-rim’s sword blew off their heads, but it was not a fatal blow because they were incorporeal demons.
It would be better if I froze or burned it, but I couldn’t use my powers.
‘It would be a problem if they found out my identity.’
Currently wearing a mask, your identity cannot be revealed, but if you use a special ability or item, you may be noticed.
The power has been cut off and all surveillance cameras have been shut off, but communications are still operational.
I couldn’t let any information about myself leak out to the outside world.
He had to deal with this situation with only a sword, giving up many of the abilities he could use.
If others saw this, they would say I was crazy, reckless, and a guest.
Jumping in front of a formidable enemy with only a sword.
Before his return, Seo Kang-rim, who had lived with the fate of an insect, always wanted to know his place.
Knowing the difference between oneself and one’s opponents was an ability that the weak had to have.
Because it was weak, I had no choice but to be careful.
I also know that if it’s a fight you can’t win, it’s wise to run away or hide and wait for the next time.
Still, there was one reason why Seo Kang-rim appeared in front of Yang Yi-baek.
Because I was confident that I could win.
-Quaqua light!
As I charged my sword with magic power, I saw the mud clumps bursting and being destroyed.
Instead of blood and bones, dirt and stone fragments were scattered everywhere.
Yang Yi-baek, who was trying to evacuate with the princess, turned around at the sound of the explosion.

-Kaga River!
Before he knew it, Seo Kang-rim’s blade had reached the nape of his neck.
But the attack was once again blocked by the iron wall.
Yang Baek-i said, staring at him as if he found it annoying.
“Hmm, since the swamp method doesn’t work well, is the element wood?”
He stared at Seo Kang-rim with a leisurely voice and snapped his fingers.
Then it seemed as if the sky had opened up in this underground place.
[The ability ‘Mattan’ is activated!]
[Mattan’s attribute changes to gold!]
As a bright light flashed across the sky, Matan’s baptism descended upon Seo Kang-rim.
A blinding flash of light appeared as the sharp golden aura focused on one spot.
-Kagakak!
The magic bullet pierced Seo Kang-rim’s entire body like rain.
Some were successful in sabotaging the fortress, but most of the attacks ended up hitting the West River directly.
As he collapsed without even being able to scream, Yang Yi-baek approached him, scratching his head.
“Yes, it would be nice if we could talk peacefully.”
I tried to control my strength to capture it alive if possible, but it was a natural attack even though all of my limbs were crushed.
From the beginning, it was regulated to a level where only life was preserved.
The moment he tried to pick up the fallen Seo Kang-rim.
A glare more intense than the light of Matan flashed.
-Crunch!
Before Yang Baek could even be surprised, a sword flew towards him, aiming for his neck.
He quickly strengthened his body with magic power to avoid a fatal wound, but his opponent’s sword was too sharp.
He stepped back hastily and grabbed my neck.
In an instant, his hands became soaked with blood, and Yang Yibaek couldn’t help but panic.
‘You’re fine even after being hit by a magic bullet… …?!’
Seo Kang-rim’s whole body was burned by the bullet and blood was oozing out from all over, but his eyes were still vivid and alive.
The damage wasn’t done properly.
Yang Yibaek was taken aback by the fact and immediately prepared the next bullet.
[Mattan’s attribute changes to fire!]
[Mattan’s attribute changes to earth!]
He changed his attributes and fired a magic bullet at Seo Kang-rim, but he quickly dodged it and destroyed it.
Several blows passed him by, but none of them caused fatal injuries.
Yang Baek’s eyes began to tremble slightly.
‘What? Why is it immune to all attacks? Does this clown pack have all the attributes of the five elements?’
It was nonsense.
Although it is possible to be born with multiple attributes, this is extremely rare.
Even Yang Yibaek, who was skilled in sorcery, only had four attributes.
But Seo Kang-rim was special.
[The five elements are designated as wood, fire, earth, metal, and water!]
[Immunity to all attribute attacks!]
Among the destinies that Seo Kang-rim had stolen so far, there was also the Five Elements.
Also, the item obtained from the fourth Demon Sutra was also of great help in blocking Yang Yibaek’s attacks.
═══════════════
[Name] Parma’s Necklace
[Rank] Shinsampum (God’s Three Grades)
[Description] Reduces damage from magic inflicted on the wearer by 50%. If the magic and the wearer’s five elements are in a symbiotic relationship, the reduction rate increases up to 90%.
═══════════════
Currently, 90% of the damage inflicted by Yang Baek is evaporating.
Even though the damage was only 10%, it was still quite shocking, but it was at a level that could be endured.
Yang Baek felt both admiration and impatience at the sight.
‘My attacks are not working like this… … With this level of ability, I might be qualified to become the princess’s vessel.’
I would have liked to capture the bastard if possible, but the circumstances were not good.
He sent a quick message.
“You still haven’t subdued the rest of the clowns? What about reinforcements?”
“[That, that… …! Even though it’s been turned into a swamp, they’re still too strong! And the reinforcements are stranded outside!]”
Now, Seo Kang-rim is giving orders and the clown group is causing a commotion outside the hospital.
Now that the clown has appeared, the protectorate cannot just ignore it.
Also, the driver who was trying to approach inside was attacked by snipers and fell.
“Haa, I guess I’ll have to do this alone in the end… … .”
He raised his right hand with a half-tired look on his face.
Contrary to his expression, his fingertips were filled with a murderous aura.
[The ability ‘Meteor Bullet’ is activated!]
-Oh my god!
An attack that was incomparable to the one before flew towards Seo Kang-rim.
The laboratory began to shake wildly from the powerful attack that felt like a meteor was falling.
Seo Kang-rim ran through the meteor and activated his half-body transformation.
[‘Half Myth’ is activated!]
As he activated the demi-myth, he could feel divine power exploding within his body.
Seo Kang-rim’s sword cut straight through the meteors fired by Yang Yi-baek.
-Oh my god!
As the attacks from both sides collided, a shockwave was created and spread out as if to tear apart everything.
All the lights, unable to withstand the pressure, broke and scattered into pieces.
The situation was such that even the lights and emergency lights that were not functioning properly due to the power outage were all broken.
As darkness fell, the light of the Matan flashed like lightning, illuminating the surrounding area.
Blink.
It seemed as if each second was split into hundreds of segments with the light.
In the fragmented world, Yang Baek saw a man wearing a mask cutting through the rain of meteors.
It didn’t seem like there was no damage at all, my skin was burning and gave off a burnt smell.
Blink.
Still, the man swung his sword as if he was even more enraged.
As if no spells or attacks were useless.
Blink.
Before I knew it, the man was right in front of me.
Yang Yi-baek could feel the premonition of death.
He reached out his hand urgently towards the princess.
Blink.
The iron wall blocking the way was torn apart.
Yang Bai urgently surrounded his entire body with magical power to protect himself.
Blink.
-Ugh!
Seo Kang-rim’s sword aimed straight for the center of Yang Yi-baek’s chest.
The magical power surrounding Yang Yibaek’s body was taking on a physical form, cracking like shattering glass.
A crack appeared around the spot where Seo Kang-rim had thrust his sword.
-Crunch!
The sound of the explosion pierced through the magic armor and scattered in all directions along with the scent of blood.
Yang Baek’s chest was cut open to the point where the bone was exposed, revealing a gap.
The moment Seo Kang-rim was about to cut off his neck, he smelled a foul odor from behind.
-Quaqua light!
At the same time, a violent explosion occurred.
As Seo Kang-rim hurriedly dodged, the smoke from the explosion began to settle.
A rustling sound could be heard through the smoke.
“That’s right, Team Leader Yang. Why didn’t you let him go a long time ago?”
What I hear is a familiar voice.
The princess was slowly rising from her restraints.
