Episode 418:
The maw of predation chewed up the fragments of Diablo.
Even if it were an image world, there was no way the body where the Archduke’s fragments stayed would be intact.
As Diablo escaped, Ayoung’s body swayed greatly.
Taehyun supported her body as she was about to fall.
It was so light that it was unbelievable that the three horns had been opened just a moment ago.
“How can it be that every time we meet, I end up in complete disarray?”
He said that one or two months would not be enough for the reflux to subside.
Taehyun said while looking at her unconscious.
Kurrrrrr.
The mental world was collapsing.
In the first place, this was not an area she entered of her own volition, but was forcibly dragged into it by Diablo.
Of course, if she was left unconscious like this, her mind would collapse.
I didn’t know that my body would deteriorate in vain despite the efforts I had made so far.
“That’s troublesome.”
The magic power left behind by Diablo surged around.
“Remnants of fear.”
Taehyun released his magic power.
Unlike when dealing with Diablo, it was a bit more neat and clean magic power.
Ugh.
A huge maw was created under my feet.
This is when the maw of predation becomes large enough to fill the world of images.
“Let’s go out, Guild Leader Yoo Ah-young.”
Kwaduk!!
The predator’s maw closes.
The connection to the world of images was severed.
* * *
I opened my eyes.
What was visible was the inside of the Alchemist building, which had been turned into a dungeon, just like before entering the world of images.
And there was a horn in question above the fallen Yoo Ah-young.
[Why do you have that power…!!]
A voice that could have been Diablo’s rang in Taehyun’s head.
It had a gloomy and destructive feeling, different from Beelzebub.
“You want me to tell you for free?”
Taehyun laughed at Diablo’s attitude.
If you want an answer, pay the appropriate price.
And in this case, the price is.
“life.”
Tiring.
[The unique skill Predation (???) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
Ugh!!
Predatory maws bared their teeth from all directions.
The siege was perfect.
Nevertheless.
Kwaduk!!
The maw of predation only bit into the air.
“Escape.”
Taehyun clicked his tongue and released his magic power.
This is because I thought they must have moved somewhere in the building that had been turned into a dungeon.
“Diablo. “It was a mistake to create a dungeon through a building.”
No matter how huge the building is.
In the end, it is just a closed space.
This is when Taehyun’s magic spread out and reached the edge of space.
[It’s impossible.]
Diablo’s voice sounded in Taehyun’s head again.
“No, soon.”
I dismissed it as a pointless escape and headed to the very end of the building.
This is when Taehyun’s magical power entered the place where Diablo’s horn was hiding.
[This is not the end.]
Diablo spoke in a voice that sounded like he was chewing.
The magic power once again took the form of a maw.
[When we meet again.]
A gate was created around the horn.
[You will have to face complete fear.]
Crack.
The mouth of predation closed and the gate closed at the same time.
“They say he’s the lord of fear. “You’re quick at running away.”
Taehyun applied his magical power to the closed gate.

The intention is to read the flow of magic power and use the ‘Apostle of the Gate’ to chase it.
Fortunately, the traces he left behind were too numerous to be traceable.
So, if the brakes hadn’t happened, I would have definitely chased after them.
Ddddddddd.
The horn that served as the dungeon’s core disappeared and the building began to vibrate.
The entire building is about to break down.
Taehyun’s gaze turned to the fallen people.
Many people have already lost their lives.
still.
I had to choose.
Should I take the survivors with me and escape, or abandon them and chase after Diablo?
No matter how Taehyun is, he can’t do both.
‘shit.’
He cursed at the unkempt ending.
If I had known this would happen, I would have brought in one more person from the association.
Moving as fast as possible ultimately led to this result.
at that time.
“…!!”
A trick came to mind.
The worries didn’t last long.
Tiring.
[Skill Apocalypse (???) has been activated.]
[Skill Apocalypse (???) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption accelerates.]
Huaaaaaaa.
The darkness created by the dark red magic quickly spread in all directions.
The shaking of the building subsided due to the spreading magic.
However, in the end, it was just a matter of delaying the time to brake.
Taehyun used the next skill.
Tiring.
[Skill Energy Drain (???) has been activated.]
[Skill Energy Compose (???) has been activated.]
The magic power of the dungeon that touched ‘Apocalypse’ was quickly sucked in.
The unstable magical energy that was shaking and shaking became a central point.
The more magical power was absorbed, the faster the dungeon began to be lifted.
‘also.’
In order to complete a dungeon, a huge amount of energy is required.
And such power was achieved by an imperfect horn without a proper host or contractor.
Even if the monsters were somehow summoned through the gate of the Abyss, the dungeon itself was merely ruled by their incomplete magical power.
The proof was that it was regaining its original form just by absorbing magical power.
The absorbed magical energy was concentrated in the form of a sphere.
This is something that has already been done countless times through Yeouiju.
It wasn’t difficult.
and.
Tiring.
[Skill Gate Apostle (???) has been activated. Coordinates have been specified]
Quaaaaa.
A huge gate opened in the air.
The magic that Diablo had shed was so strong that it was not difficult to pinpoint the coordinates.
‘If it moved that way, it’s probably related to the guy who summoned it.’
Taehyun sent the concentrated sphere of magical power through the gate.
I really want to cross that gate myself.
An explosion would sweep through the building where the magic had been drained.
If ‘Apocalypse’ cannot be maintained, all survivors here will die.
It was also necessary to prevent the loss of the Alchemist Guild headquarters, which could be considered the essence of New Korea’s science and technology, as much as possible.
“Let’s watch.”
Where exactly did Diablo take refuge?
Taehyun focused on solving the dungeon’s break as he watched Yeouiju completely disappear beyond the gate.
The news from Yeouiju came from an unexpected place.
* * *
Liu Shibo was sure.
That he would become the master of a new world.
As the reports continued, such confidence painted a clearer picture of the future.
“annotation. That’s not what I said. Everything will go according to plan. If you are so suspicious, you won’t end up in the same situation as you are now. Tsk tsk.”
Liu Shibo clicked his tongue and stroked Zheng Cheng’s swollen face.
That alone made Jeongcheong moan and tremble.
I only provided training for a short period of time.
The reaction was truly shocking.
“A man who is said to be the most powerful person in a great country is so weak… Don’t worry. “There are quite a few things I need to do for you, so until then, I will treat you with respect.”
Cook, cook.
When Liu Shibo stabbed him with his index finger, Zheng Cheng was startled and gasped.
“Hee hee hee…”
Chuckle.
This is when Liu Shibo is enjoying the reaction.
Quaaaaa.
“…!!”
Liu Shibo trembled at the sudden crack.
What appeared through the crack that formed the gate was a horn.
His eyes widened.
That horn was the horn of Diablo that was taken from New Delhi by New Korea, which he had hoped to regain.
“Oh…”
Ryusubo was thrilled and grabbed the horn that was emitting vicious magical power in the air.
at that time.
[It was you. A guy connected to the original demon.]
“…!!”
The monster’s language was heard in Ryusbo’s head.
It was familiar yet unfamiliar.
Still, I could tell.
“Arch…Diablo…!!”
Liu Shibo called out to the owner of the voice.
[What a barbaric body it is. I don’t know how the piece of the original demon became connected to you and the like.]
Diablo said this, recalling Yoo Ah-young and Kim Tae-hyun, who he had targeted a while ago.
Even though his body exudes an aura connected to an ancient great evil.
So even though he summoned a piece of himself from this small planet, his power was so weak.
[It is like an insect.]
Diablo commented on Ryusbo’s existence like that.
[However, I like that base desire.]
“….”
Liu Shibo was not offended by the crude evaluation.
Diablo, who spoke to him for the first time, spoke as if he wanted his body.
[Swear obedience to your ancestor. Then you will gain the power of fear.]
“There is no reason to refuse!!”
Liu Shibo shouted and unleashed his magic power.
To myself, it was a power I was proud to display, but to Diablo, who had just fought a fierce battle, it was a power I was not satisfied with.
[This is a truly interesting situation.]
The two bodies he wanted rejected me, but the body he had no choice but to choose was desperate to assimilate with him.
[Don’t worry. The price of accepting fear will not be light.]
Wow.
Liu Shibo’s hand holding the horn lost strength for a moment.
Sigh!!
The hand, swinging arbitrarily, drove the horn into my heart.
“Ugh…”
Liu Shibo groaned.
Grumbling.
I could see the black discolored blood flowing from my mouth.
at the same time.
[I accept the enormous magical power.]
[I have assimilated into a huge being.]
[The awakening level increases.]
An unbelievable message followed.
I felt a power that I had previously thought was exclusive to the national power class.
“At last…”
[The Lord of Terror has arrived.]
A sinister voice rang in my head.
“I am the Lord of Terror…”
This is the moment when Ryusbo is about to announce the birth of a gigantic being.
Quaaaaa.
The gate opened and a small bead appeared.
“…?”
Liu Shibo stared in fascination at the beauty that seemed to have been carved by a craftsman.
On the other hand.
[…!!]
Diablo immediately recognized that his power was felt in that small bead.
[You idiot!! Avoid…]
before Diablo could even give the command.
Kwaaaa!!!
Yeouiju, who was concentrating great power, spewed out magical power.
* * *
The world was changing rapidly.
Gate breaks that had never occurred in three years occurred one after another, and monsters of SSS rank or higher appeared.
Ten national power levels.
The Great Devil is a being that cannot be controlled even if two or more of them attack him.
Its mere appearance threw the world into chaos, but the huge explosion that occurred at the headquarters of the China Players Association only added fuel to the fire.
Association President Liu Shibo officially announced the death of President Zheng Chengg, and at the same time announced that he had awakened to SSS rank and emphasized the spirit of the nation.
Countries belonging to the Chinese Federation supported Association Chairman Liu Shibo, who declared revenge on Chairman Zheng Qing.
The cause of the explosion at the Chinese Players Association.
Shin Korea was pointed out as the suspect.
The reason was that a high-risk gate break recently occurred in New Korea.
Manipulated information and false media colluded to define New Korea as a hostile country.
“We will take action against those who cause division in our great nation.”
The world players’ association, the European Union P50, complained about the apparent provocation.
One by one, gate breaks occurred in countries that opposed Liu Shibo.
Unfortunately, there was no gate break in places related to the Chinese Federation, and Liu Shibo said that this was God’s punishment.
The world was now entering a new period of change.
