Episode 220
The Irregular members were preparing to leave.
And the bodies of the Glory Guild team members who started the search became stiff.
A monster with its head cut off is still alive and walking around.
It was a bizarre and terrifying scene that no one expected.
“Uncle Cheolwan!”
Kang Jeong-hyeon screamed and tried to run toward Yuk Cheol-wan.
Until someone grabbed him by the back.
“?!”
“If you go, everyone will die.”
The person who controlled Kang Jeong-hyeon’s actions was Chen.
“… … !”
Kang Jeong-hyeon was about to protest for a moment, but then bit his lip and quickly searched for a plant in his body.
“I… … !”
“I know.”
When Maria was about to ask for something, Su-min Jeong nodded first.
“favor! truth! Go quickly and heal Yukcheolwan Hunter. “Yesung and Jihwan are providing cover.”
“yes!”
“yep!”
The four hunters ran toward Yukcheolwan in unison.
In the current situation, Irregular’s help is absolute.
Instead of Maria, who had to protect the field, Su-min Jeong assigned useful healers and tanks to support Yuk Cheol-wan.
“thank you… … .”
“It was nothing.”
Jeong Soo-min answered briefly and gave orders to the combat hunters.
“Hold the chimera’s head. Never let them merge!”
It was not knowledge learned from somewhere, but a kind of insight that came from countless combat experiences.
I had an instinctive feeling that I should not create a complete body.
however,
bang!
visor!
Pubbung!
No matter what attack was made, the chimera’s head went straight towards the body.
“Unbelievable… … !”
It was so strong that even Chen could barely cut it down with the help of Merus.
It was not an area that a single(?) Glory Guild combatant could handle.
‘Strange. There was clearly no biological reaction.’
Chen glared at Myne’s body and head alternately with narrowed eyes.
‘Is it not enough to cut off one’s head? I can’t believe it’s a vital place other than the head… … vital spot?’
At that time, someone’s voice came into Chen’s mind like a thunderbolt.
-High-level monsters have a separate heart in addition to their core. You can’t let down your guard until you get rid of it.
This was what Cheon Hae-seon said to him in the past.
‘That’s it!’
Chen took out the Pranium Sword again with a stiff expression on his face.
“heart! “Aim for the heart!”
“… … ?? If it’s the core, it’s already been extracted… … .”
“There’s one more thing than that! hurry!”
After Chen said that, he swung the Pranium Sword with all his might at the forefront.
Kang!!!!!
However, rather than being cut, the chimera’s body only pushed Chen’s sword back.
“damn!”
Afterwards, dozens of hunters launched an onslaught on the Chimera, but all attacks ended in vain like lies.
And finally, the chimera’s neck returned to its original place.
-Kwaaaaa!!
The chimera’s roar made the surrounding hunters step back like wind pressure.
The energy it gave off was enough to make even Jeong Soo-min, who had gone through all the hardships, become sick of it.
“why… … how?”
What was even more surprising was that I felt a stronger force than when I first encountered him.
‘Come to think of it… … .’
It wasn’t just the energy that changed.
Small horns began to grow on the merged chimera’s forehead, and a pair of something was about to unfold from behind.
‘Nonsense.’
Chen had heard about the change from Cheon Hae-seon.
The same change happened to Gu Geon-i, who had driven Cheon Hae-seon away for a while.
“Stand back!”
Phew.
Chen shouted urgently, but his horn had already pierced the chest of one hunter.
Blood splattered everywhere, and the Hunter’s limbs, which had been pierced, convulsed.

“!!”
“Taegyu!”
“You son of a bitch!!”
Several of my colleagues rolled their eyes and rushed towards the chimera.
However, the chimera swung its arms with its horns stuck and immediately overpowered the hunters.
bang!!
bang!!!
Chen also wanted to rush towards the chimera right away.
But there was work to be done before that.
Aside from reattaching the head that had been blown off, what is the reason why he is stronger than before?
‘Hoegwangbanjo (giving away all the power one has before death)… … ? no.’
To say it was a half-joke, it didn’t look like he was going to die any time soon.
At that time, among the busy hunters, a colleague came into Chen’s field of vision.
“right… … “Wow.”
A red-haired esper who not only has a pale face, but also spits out disgusting fluids.
Sparks flew in Chen’s eyes as he looked at Bisu.
‘no way… … !’
I didn’t feel any energy like the buffs that were usually sent.
But the power of the dagger suddenly disappeared.
He looks so gaunt now.
Judging from the fact that a power that the Chimera did not have had arisen, all directions were pointing in one direction.
‘Chimera is absorbing the dagger’s buff… … !!’
After finishing his thoughts, Bisu moved behind Bisu’s back in an instant.
“Ugh. hey. You’ve arrived just in time. “Give me a pat on the back.”
“… … “There is a more certain and convenient way.”
“?”
puck.
Chen raised his hand blade and struck the back of the sword’s neck.
“Hey dog… … .”
Bisu fell down without even completing the swear word, and Chen pinned her body as it was about to hit the floor.
“Che, Chen?!”
Kang Jeong-hyeon was very surprised and called Chen’s name.
However, Chen pulled out the Pranium Sword without any explanation.
“I don’t have time to explain. Are you ready for ‘that’?”
“… … yes.”
I don’t know what’s going on, but there must be a reason why Chen does that.
With that kind of faith, Kang Jeong-hyeon softly gave an order.
“Activate.”
Shurrrr.
As if shedding her skin, the fiber device on Kang Jeong-hyeon’s right arm was released.
Soon, large stems formed from his shoulders, and a dazzling light bloomed at the ends.
“I have no choice but to try. know?”
“yes… … !”
“Then let’s go.”
Chen kicked off the ground, holding the Pranium Sword in both hands.
It is true that Kang Jeong-hyeon summoned the Anima, but it was undecided whether other hunters could freely use that power.
Moreover, we cannot expect any buffs from the dagger at the moment.
It was a war situation that could be considered a gamble, but it was also true that there was no other option.
-Kwaaaaaak.
While Chen was away for a moment, more than ten hunters had already passed away.
Maria was busy moving and healing, but there was no way to revive the hunters who died instantly.
Sigh.
With his gaze fixed on the Chimera, Chen concentrated all his attention on the tip of the Pranium Sword.
‘come.’
He was calling.
The anima that sprouted on Kang Jeong-hyeon’s shoulder.
Previously, Cheon Hae-seon had just picked it(?) and given it to her, but now she was in a situation where she had to call ‘rain’ from the anima flower herself.
However, no matter how much Chen concentrated his senses, ‘rain’ never appeared.
“… … Damn it.”
Chen briefly cursed and then adjusted the handle.
There were too many hunters dying to just wait for ‘rain’ to appear.
Gurgling.
A five-colored electric shock struck the chimera’s chest.
“Ugh… … !”
The hunters around had to feel a tingling sensation just from the remnants of the lightning.
But unfortunately, there were no significant injuries on the chimera’s body.
“… … Step back. “You can’t help anyway.”
It was quite an insulting remark, but there was no mistake in what Chen said.
The Glory Guild Hunters obediently reorganized their ranks at the back.
Chen aimed his sword at the chimera again and controlled his breathing.
Even though I put a thunderbolt sword in the Pranium Sword, it didn’t cause even a scratch.
Although it was a pretty disappointing situation, Chen found one silver lining.
‘As expected, rain was the driving force.’
Sussss… … .
The horns growing on the chimera were gradually disappearing.
The same goes for the wings that sprouted from the shoulders.
Because she fainted, the buff she had forcibly taken disappeared along with it.
‘The power is similar to before. then… … .’
If you use ‘Rain’ to activate the Thunderbolt Sword, you can inflict damage on the Chimera like before.
If you target the heart instead of the neck, it will be impossible to revive like before.
The problem was that Chen no longer had the ‘rain’ he received from Cheon Hae-seon.
‘If only I had received just one more at that time… … .’
I felt a moment of regret, but it was something I couldn’t turn back now.
While the buff was cut off and he hesitated, Chen tried to recall Merus’s senses again.
at that time,
“Something doesn’t seem right.”
Jeong Soo-min blocked his path.
“… … “I would have said no.”
However, Su-min Jeong sent a hand signal toward the back with a stern expression.
“At least it will buy us time. “Try to summon that strange energy while we stop it.”
Pot.
Several hunters followed Su-min Jeong and surrounded the chimera.
“Ha!”
“Cha!”
Quagwagwagwagwagwang.
As Jeong Soo-min said, there was no case of being knocked out in one hit because the bisu’s buff was cut off.
Each guild has its own combat know-how.
Jeong Soo-min was waging a war of attrition as much as possible while preventing the hunters from getting hurt.
“… … !”
I couldn’t concentrate when I saw things broken and injured everywhere.
Chen held back his anxious thoughts and closed his eyes.
Meanwhile, Kang Jeong-hyeon, who had summoned Anima, was boiling over in pain.
Surely, if only this golden energy could be sent, the situation of the war would change, but the Merus that had formed on the peak seemed to have no intention of going out.
‘if… … .’
Jeonghyun Kang recalled the first time he accepted Anima into his body.
He(?) was able to communicate with himself, as if he were talking to a person.
Jeonghyeon Kang spoke to Anima with a skeptical mind.
-Why aren’t you helping Chen?
Surprisingly, the answer came back immediately.
-The only people who can handle Merus are the Anima Master and the Poisoner.
-then… … Can Chen no longer use Merus?
-I already gave you the answer.
“?”
Kang Jeong-hyeon looked puzzled for a moment.
I’m not saying yes or no, but ‘I already gave you the answer.’
It was difficult to determine the truth of what Anima said.
‘Chen is not a poisoner. then… … .’
The owner of Merus.
Isn’t that definitely anima?
But Anima clearly spoke as if speaking to a third person.
‘The master of Merus is the master of Anima… … .’
Jeonghyun Kang was soon able to arrive at an unexpected answer.
“me???”
Me?
According to Anima’s words, she was clearly the owner of Merus.
Merus is the energy formed in the anima flower, and Kang Jeong-hyeon was a person who could call that anima.
“then… … .”
It was natural that Chen could not summon ‘Rain’.
It was a problem that Kang Jeong-hyeon, the owner of Anima, had to allow from the beginning.
-Okay, then I’ll allow it!
Jeonghyeon Kang called out to Anima in his heart again, but there was no longer an answer.
“… … good.”
Kang Jeong-hyeon turned and pointed the Anima towards Chen.
Then, I slowly pushed in the sensation felt at the tip of the anima.
Sigh… … .
‘do… … !’
At the end of the anima, ‘Rain’, smaller than a fingernail, peeked out.
Kang Jeong-hyeon, who gained confidence, exploded all of his senses as he let go.
-Bee.
Just two.
Considering that I exerted enough strength to the point of exhaustion, it could be said that it was a shabby result.
But Kang Jeong-hyeon was confident that he could do it.
“Chen!!”
As Kang Jeong-hyeon’s name was called, Chen’s closed eyes opened.
Before I knew it, the two ‘Bees’ were clinging to the tip of the Planium Sword.
“Haaaaaaaap!”
Gurgling.
The members of the Glory Guild hurriedly retreated at the sound of thunder coming out of nowhere.
Chen cut through the empty space and rushed towards the chimera.
Bababababaak.
Where is the heart?
There was no need to worry about that.
The golden pupil of Merus’ eyes was pointing precisely to the middle of the chimera.
If you decide to show it, you can see the source of your power.
“die!”
bang!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A dazzling golden bolt of electricity tore through the Chimera’s chest.
-Kieek.
The chimera’s upper body, cut in half, screamed in pain, and soon the skin on its entire body began to rot rapidly.
“I did it!!”
‘I did it…’ … !’
Jeonghyeon Kang and Chen.
The two Mavericks clenched their fists.
