Episode 172
The dragon roars.
Even the lava tidal wave that seemed like it would swallow everything up could not stop the dragon.
Kwaaaah-!
A dragon that runs, crushing and eating lava wherever it comes across.
Choi Hyun-seok and Rachel’s jaws dropped open at the rare sight.
“Rachel. What kind of magic is that…?” “Well… I want to learn it too.”
The lava that had been there when the dragon passed disappeared, creating a path.
Finally, the dragon, having completely broken through the lava, seemed to have fulfilled its role and slowly became transparent before disappearing.
“Hero! The enemy is coming!”
A path created by the dragon’s sacrifice.
It was filling up with lava again, but through it I could see a few undead running towards me.
Judging by the speed, it seemed like we would pass through the lava field before the road completely disappeared.
“Hey! What are you doing blankly!?”
Choi Hyun-seok came to his senses at the sound of the voice.
When I looked back, Park Hyun-ah was frowning and sweating profusely.
“Stay here. The magic has been properly applied, so jump right in!”
Even though the enemy responded, we still achieved our objective.
Most of the undead army was swept away.
In addition, Sarah Dunphy, the dominant entity, used magic recklessly to stop the lava surge.
‘Since you used high-level magic in a hurry, the backlash will be severe.’
Park Hyun-ah used magic with a prepared magic circle, and the enemy responded suddenly.
The difference was bigger than I thought.
Sarah Dunphy is currently not in perfect condition due to the backflow of magic within her.
If magical power or magic energy flows backwards, not only will you not be able to exert your power, but it can even lead to death.
Even considering that Sarah Dunphy is a great sorceress, she would need at least a day of rest to return to normal condition.
‘I’ll just recover my magic power and come back.’
In contrast, Park Hyun-ah doesn’t have any significant impact.
If you just replenish your magic and stamina, you will quickly return to your original condition.
She planned to retreat, gather her strength, and then return to finish the fight before Sarah Dunphy could recover.
“Whew, I’ll go right away.”
The group gathers around.
Park Hyun-ah used teleportation magic.
“…”
The group stood still.
A brief silence follows.
Choi Hyun-seok opened his mouth.
“What are you doing?”
“f*cked. Movement is blocked.”
“yes?”
“They spread out the station master over there!”
Park Hyun-ah’s expression suddenly crumpled.
She hit her head and scolded herself.
“What a retard! He can’t even think of the stationmaster!”
The root of the problem was that I thought they didn’t know how to use the force field because they hadn’t used it for a long time.
Even though the station master isn’t that difficult of a magician.
‘When I think about it, it doesn’t make sense! A lich with that much magical power can’t even use a force field.’
Even the stationmaster doesn’t have to be Sarah Dunphy herself.
It is possible to maintain a station 24 hours a day, provided certain requirements are met.
But why haven’t they used the stationmaster until now?
It occurred to me that maybe they had been waiting for this moment.
“Um… what do we do now?” “What do we do? It’ll just explode!”
Nearly a hundred undead are currently running towards this place.
Each and every one of them is heroic.
The three running at the front were, at a glance, at least semi-legendary.
A power that makes it difficult to guarantee victory even when faced with the best condition.
They weren’t the type of guys who could win a fight when their magic power was cut in half.
“Bobo! Run with all your might!”
The group climbed onto Bobo and started to run away.
Bobo runs across the plains with all his might, but the speed of the enemy following him is not easy.
“Sister! The enemy is too fast! If we keep doing this, we’ll catch up!”
“wait!”
Park Hyun-ah turned around and reached out her hand.
Intermediate Warrior Magic Transformation
Super high speed magic bullet sniper
‘Intermediate Warrior Magic – Magic Bullet Sniper’ is a magic that Park Hyun-ah personally improved.
Instead of using a little more horsepower, it produces twice the speed and power of before.
“Get behind!”

A ping-pong ball-sized bullet shoots out from Park Hyun-ah’s fingertips.
A magic bullet that flew so fast that it would have been believable if it had been fired from an actual gun hit an undead in the shoulder.
Phew-!
The undead spun around in the air and crashed to the ground, thanks to the added power of running.
I thought he would just collapse, but he quickly got up and ran as if nothing had happened.
Even though his shoulder was broken and he couldn’t raise his arm, he didn’t seem to care at all.
“Head! Aim for the head!”
“I know, Inma!”
Even if the opponent has a human appearance, their true nature is undead.
It will persistently pursue you unless you crush its head or cut off its neck.
However, it was not easy to accurately hit the head of a human running at over 80 km/h at this distance.
Park Hyun-ah narrowed her eyes and continued to shoot the bullets.
Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!
Those who are hit by the magic bullet seem to fall down, but then get up again and run.
It seemed like this would only lead to wasting time.
“I’ll help too!”
Abelson extended his hand and activated his divine power.
“No area-of-effect magic! Only use magic that hits a single target!”
It’s not a small matter.
Even if you use area-of-effect magic by consuming a lot of divine power, it will be difficult to inflict proper damage.
Abelson, who understood this, cast a spell.
Lieutenant Divine Magic
path of light
A beam of pure white light shoots from Abelson’s fingertips.
‘That should work.’
Choi Hyun-seok watched the beam of light with an expectant expression.
Since it was a divine power that was fatal to the undead, there was a high probability that the enemy would become incapacitated the moment it touched them.
However, those expectations were dashed sooner than expected.
‘Did you avoid it…?’
Abelson’s magic tore through the air in vain.
The speed of the projectile was too slow.
Moreover, Abelson’s magic was easy to avoid because it showed a trajectory of pure white light.
It seemed difficult to hit not only common undead, but also heroic undead with this magic.
Choi Hyun-seok clenched his teeth as he watched the enemy gradually approaching.
“Sister! This can’t go on!” “Then what should I do!?”
“We have to fight back!”
“You little punk! If you fight those guys now, you’ll only have 30 seconds left!”
It is true that Choi Hyun-seok has become stronger.
However, each and every one of them has specs that are comparable to Choi Hyun-seok.
I might be able to win one-on-one, but it was absolutely impossible to take on that many at once.
In particular, the three at the very front were so strong that even Park Hyun-ah had to be nervous.
“If I keep running like this, I’ll get hit in the back of the head! It’d be better to prepare and fight before that!” “Stop talking nonsense! I’ll keep running to Honken City!”
Park Hyun-ah planned to run to a nearby city and ask for help.
Choi Hyun-seok did not back down and expressed his opinion.
“Honken City should have already evacuated! What good will it do to go to an empty city!?” “Then let’s run to the next city!” “We have to stop them here!”
“I told you not to!”
Park Hyun-ah roughly grabbed Choi Hyun-seok by the collar.
“If you fight here, you’ll die. At least wait until my magic power recovers.”
Park Hyun-ah gritted her teeth and growled.
If it were the usual Choi Hyun-seok, he would have bowed his head and apologized at this point, but this time it was different.
“How are you going to recover your magic power in this situation? If you keep using magic now.”
“…”
“Rather, now. We need to decide the outcome before Sister’s magic power completely runs out.”
Park Hyun-ah laughed at Choi Hyun-seok’s words.
“Ha! You want to see the result? How many times do I have to tell you that you’ll die if you fight!” “You won’t know until you try.” “Even this little brat…!” “You can do it! You can win!”
Choi Hyun-seok looked at Park Hyun-ah with stern eyes.
“…”
Their eyes briefly met.
Park Hyun-ah clicked her tongue and let go of his collar.
“You must have some kind of plan, right?”
“Of course.”
Choi Hyun-seok looked back at Abelson.
“Mr. Abelson, please continue to ride Bobo and circle around to assist. Together, you will be in no danger unless you are surrounded.”
“all right.”
Abelson nodded with a determined expression.
“Sister, please take care of the guys in front.”
“Those three?”
“Yes. If we just deal with those three, there’s really no danger, right?”
Three running at the forefront of the undead horde.
They were Liam, the best warrior of Balrington, and the warrior generals.
“What about the others?”
“The rest are just leftovers anyway. We can deal with them together and focus on those three.” “Haa, why don’t you know that they’re just leftovers too…”
Park Hyun-ah roughly ran her hands through her hair.
If it is indeed as Choi Hyun-seok said, then there is a chance of winning.
The dominant entity, Sarah Dunphy, is missing from the battle.
If we can just deal with those three that pose the greatest threat, we can easily win.
The rest of the hero-level undead won’t be able to do anything to Park Hyun-ah.
The problem is that the fighting power of these three is extraordinary.
[ Combat Power: 277,305 ]
[ Combat Power: 255,402 ]
[ Combat Power: 325,203 ]
Park Hyun-ah frowned after seeing the fighting power.
“Their average fighting power is almost 300,000…”
Even for Park Hyun-ah, it was difficult to deal with enemies with that level of fighting power at once.
Defeat three semi-legendary undead while fending off concentrated attacks from hundreds of heroic undead?
It would be much easier to just grab any legend and have a one-on-one fight.
Even Park Hyun-ah didn’t have even half of her magic left.
“You can do it.”
“f*ck. Easier said than done…” “Just kill one of them as soon as the battle starts.”
At that moment, Choi Hyun-seok’s skin began to turn red and his eyes began to become bloodshot.
“You really…?”
“The guy with the spear on the far left goes first!”
“Hey! Choi Hyun-seok!”
“Please help me!”
Choi Hyun-seok said what he wanted to say and jumped down from Bobo’s back.
Floromot Stage 1 – Flowering
Park Hyun-ah screamed loudly as she watched Choi Hyun-seok running while using a float.
“Who is this kid calling me!?”
***
Liam, the greatest warrior of the Kingdom of Balington.
He was very angry.
It’s not just because of the hatred towards the living that undead cannot help but have.
The real reason he is angry is because he failed to protect his lord.
In fact, it was inevitable because the role of a warrior in a large-scale magic battle was limited.
Even so, he could not tolerate his own incompetence.
‘I will not forgive those who dare to harm my lord’s body.’
The only way to pay the price was to return with the heads of those who ran away before my eyes.
“Destroy the enemy! Show the spirit of Balrington!”
“yes!”
‘Liam’, currently at the forefront, is the ‘best warrior’ of the Kingdom of Balington.
‘Ivan’ and ‘Mohan’ who followed were ‘warlords’.
The commander of the army was the rank just below the highest warrior, and was like a kind of knight commander.
Behind them are eighty-two warriors from the kingdom’s First Warriors.
There are a total of 85 undead.
All of them are founding fathers of Balrington.
They were the best warriors who fought in countless battlefields.
Even though everyone is dead and more than a thousand years have passed.
The memories of fighting with them were still vivid.
‘Show me the power of the warriors that the continent feared.’
That was when.
The enemy who was running away suddenly turned around and started running towards me instead.
“Are you finally ready to fight?”
Liam laughed ferociously and gripped his sword.
The one at the very front was Choi Hyun-seok, a man whose skin was dyed red all over his body.
“I will cut off your head and present it to my lord!”
Liam swings his sword.
A sword made of magic was shot along that trajectory.
Kwakwagagagaga!
The black energy that flew over the ground barely passed Choi Hyun-seok.
Liam didn’t care and kept running.
Anyway, this is an exploratory battle.
Rather, I am grateful to the enemy for not being defeated by such a light stab.
If it’s too easy, it won’t be fun.
“Come!”
Finally, the two men face each other.
Liam tried to swing his sword, but Choi Hyun-seok ran past him and backwards.
His target was the warrior general Ivan, who was following him.
Raidrun style fighting techniques
Type 1 – First Battle Destruction
A powerful magical energy that shoots out.
General Ivan responded by urgently extending his spear.
Kwaaaaa-!
Magi collides with Ivan’s spear.
Ivan slides backwards.
“You’re quite skilled…!”
Just as Ivan was about to stab the window in.
“Ivan! Up!”
Liam shouted.
When I raised my head, I saw a woman flying in the sky, Park Hyun-ah.
A red bullet shot out from Park Hyun-ah’s fingertips and flew in at high speed.
“This is nothing!”
Ivan the Terrible swung his spear to strike down Matan.
bang-!
The bullet collides with the window and explodes.
Although it was a small explosion, the power it contained was extraordinary.
Ivan desperately grabbed the spear to keep it from slipping out due to the strong impact.
“Ugh! This guy…!”
Before I could even control my body.
Choi Hyun-seok, who had come closer without me noticing, bent down and took a stance.
Raidrun style fighting techniques
Type 5 – Apnea-free continuous striking
Choi Hyun-seok started throwing his fists like crazy.
General Ivan urgently released his magic to protect his body.
Although I wasn’t used to magic yet, I was able to control it to this extent.
Doo doo doo doo doo doo-!
Even though he releases his magic to counteract the fist, the impact is still quite large.
It was fortunate that the undead could not feel pain.
‘I can’t control my body.’
Ivan’s expression became frowning.
For now, the best thing to do was to continue releasing magic energy to protect my body.
If he didn’t do this, Ivan’s body would turn into a rag in an instant.
“Inom…!”
I was punched over a hundred times in just a few seconds.
However, thanks to the protection of the body with magic, there was no major damage.
‘It’s my turn now.’
Choi Hyun-seok’s attack failed.
It seemed like a decisive blow, but the fighting power of Ivan and Choi Hyun-seok was almost twice as different.
The weight class is different.
But Ivan didn’t know.
Choi Hyun-seok’s purpose was elsewhere from the beginning.
‘Ha! You haven’t given up yet.’
Choi Hyun-seok extends his hand.
Ivan didn’t care.
This is because he knew that Choi Hyun-seok’s power would not be able to break through the magic he had released.
Kwajik-!
Choi Hyun-seok’s hand pierced Ivan’s neck.
Ivan opened his eyes in disbelief.
“how…?”
Instead of answering, Choi Hyun-seok flexed his arms.
“Ah, no…!”
Kkwadduk!
The spine of General Ivan was roughly torn out.
