Sword Emperor Reincarnated as a Sword Master Chapter 203

Sword Emperor Reincarnated as a Swordsmith (203)

The number of corpses pouring out from inside Yggdrasil’s territory was so enormous that it was difficult to even estimate it.

Above all, the level was not that low.

Instead of low-level monsters like goblins, gnolls, and kobolds, the majority were mid-level or higher monsters, including orcs. The movements of the monsters, whose physical abilities were several to dozens of times greater while possessed by spriggans, were honestly terrifying.

It was truly unrealistic to see an ax thrown by an orc from a distance of more than 500 meters fly like an arrow, get blocked by the train’s protective barrier, and bounce off.

Even if you are a super-light fighter, if you only rely on your own self-defense, you never know when your head will explode.

“Fire! No need for aimed shooting! They come in such a way that everything you shoot at gets hit! “Focus only on loading speed and cooling of the gun barrel!”

As the Green Dragon Knight, who was commanding the bombardment unit, said, the cannons installed on dozens of Titans spouted fire.

A loud roar that made the upper deck of the barrier train tremble.

Quang! Kwaaaaang! Quaaaang!

The corpses of the monsters were shattered by the shells raining down like heavy rain, and the pieces of their flesh soared and then fell, almost looking like a shower of blood and meat. In an instant, a foul odor and poisonous odor seeped out from the ground, which had become soggy with rotting blood and flesh.

It doesn’t stop when a limb or two falls off.

If either the upper or lower body is intact, it regenerates again, stands up, and repeats the charge. Rather than being restored to its previous form like the undead, it was truly disgusting to see the body writhing and clinging to itself as if it were regenerating.

Even if the entire body was shattered by a direct hit by chance, the spriggan possessed inside would escape and wander the battlefield in search of a new vessel, looking as magical as a will-o’-the-wisp.

“Titan shooters! “Put down the gun and fire the soul stake!”

Despite firing dozens of times in succession, the army of monsters containing Spriggan got closer and closer. It had to be that way. Regardless of whether my body is broken or not, how can I stop the monsters that are rushing towards me while crushing even the fragments of my comrades?

Empty! Wow! Empty! Boom!

Titans equipped with weapons similar to ballistas, who had put down their cannons and were rolling around next to them, fired in unison.

Arrows fired from a bow that is over 4 meters long, and projectiles in a shape closer to a harpoon are struck at regular intervals. Although the shot was not aimed at a monster, parts of the bodies of those unlucky enough to be caught in the impact fell off, causing a whirlwind of blood.

However, as its name suggests, the ‘soul stake’ had a separate purpose.

Wooooow.

A harpoon that is over 2 meters long is not much different from a spear.

When the magic circle engraved on the surface of the metal platform resonated, emitting a soft light, the ‘soul stakes’ lined up at intervals of about 50 meters all sparkled, creating waves of unknown effect.

It was a collaboration between Wickline and Zehire that took a century to achieve. Normal living beings will not take any damage, but if the connection between spirit and body is loose, just entering that area of ​​effect will distort the spirit and body.

It was a weapon intended to thoroughly deal with spriggans.

KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECK?!?

Craaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat??!

The wave of the ‘soul stake’ did not end with a single resonance, but resonated again and again, hitting the entire area of ​​effect.

The possessed bodies, which were not paying attention to the bombardment that was raging across the heavens and earth, suddenly rolled around on the ground, convulsed as if they were being tickled, and then their bodies turned inside out. The sight of skin and flesh being rolled up inside and internal organs and bones sticking out was truly terrifying.

The Spriggans also seemed to have been hit by this attack to their core bodies, so they had to waste quite a long time as the spirit bodies that escaped their bodies convulsed and went in search of a new vessel.

however.

“come! Green Dragon Knights, prepare for close combat!”

“Activate the protective barrier to maximum! “The number coming up must be reduced as much as possible!”

“Take out more than one in one blow! If you can’t kill it, drop it down! “Anyway, I just change my body and climb back up again!”

Meanwhile, there were spriggans who reached the barrier train.

Kyaaaaaaa!!

There must have been more than ninety out of a hundred who were wiped out by artillery fire and lost vessels due to ‘soul stakes’ and protective barriers, but their numbers were so great that it was impossible to stop them all.

I could even see quite a few people who didn’t even climb the wall, but instead used each other’s heads or bodies as stepping stones and jumped up to a height of 50 meters once or twice.

The Green Dragon Knights fiercely charged against him.

Each and every one of them, like top-class warriors, slaughters the spriggan with their colorful auror blades while working together without any dissonance.

‘It’s stable. ‘There is not a single place where we are pushed back or at a disadvantage.’

As Leonard looked around his area, he was a little impressed that there was no danger or danger without his own intervention.

Although the number was less than 10%, the numerical superiority compared to the expeditionary force was absolute. Even if a Spriggan dies, he only discards his possessed body and changes his body again to reappear, and the rate at which his power decreases itself is slow, making it difficult to maintain a stalemate.

However, the Green Dragon Knights were not pushed back even one step.

Oh Sang-ryu (Four Swordsmen)

There was no reason to wait and see just because there was no danger, so Leonard led the four swords and lined them up.

The blue river overflows, creating the shape of a dragon.

Blue Dragon Thirty-Six Meals

Dragon King Appears

As soon as the strong Qigong with the greatest destructive power in the Wusangryu, Dragon King Chuldu, appeared, the Spriggans who were running wild around it froze.

In the realm of instinct, there was one who seemed to have realized that the Blue Dragon Keeper was his natural enemy and turned his back on Leonard to get away from him.

Kwaoooooooo??!!

As if to show off his majesty, Kang Qigong, in the form of a blue dragon, roared once and landed on the battlefield. The scales and horns made of blue lightning emit menacing electricity.

To the Spriggan, that figure was no different from the Death God.

“good.”

As soon as the owner’s command was given, “Dragon King Appears” started moving.

Pajik!

Transformed into a bolt of lightning, Kang Qigong bit down on three Spriggans and tore several more with his horns and claws as he ran towards the defense line above the train.

No matter how much the spriggan had strengthened his body, he could not be immune from the power that reached the level of his half nerves. Above all, since its body was nothing more than a disposable product, it specialized in attack power and mobility rather than defense power.

The destructive power of , which literally went lightning, simply tore them to pieces and even purified the spiritual bodies hidden within their bodies, returning them to the natural world.

From Spriggan’s point of view, it was the same outcome as death.

“… what? “It’s not playing, is it?”

The Green Dragon Knight, who was watching the scene, said while squinting.

“The soul didn’t even come out of the corpse. “It was as if I had completely died.”

“what? Are you saying you destroyed the Spriggan? “I think I learned that it’s impossible if you’re not at the level of the leaders.”

“This guy noticed. Recall the time when you faced off alone with the king of corruption. Even though he may not be at the level of leader yet, isn’t this proof that he has entered that realm?”

As the words that someone said spread, awe was unconsciously mixed into the way people looked at Leonard.

The distance was too far to look at it with jealousy and a sense of inferiority. To most Green Dragon Knights, he is only about the same age as their own child, but he is already on the verge of antagonism? Now that I’m approaching 20, you could say I’m young, but it doesn’t make much of a difference.

When it was spread by word of mouth, there were a few people who doubted its authenticity, but after seeing the close fight with the King of Witchcraft, there was no way anyone would mention it again.

Not knowing that his reputation was soaring in real time, Leonard, who commanded the Four Swords, tried out a new strategy.

‘Sasang Gwiwonjin (四象歸元陣).’

It was a strategy well suited to the Blue Dragon keeper, which uses the four symbols of yin and yang to bring about a return to the origin, and which implies circulation and natural order.

The swords that corresponded to the strength of 〈Dragon King Chuldu〉 are rearranged according to the shape of the sword. The destructive power of the strong Qigong itself will be lowered, but the damage delivered to the Spriggan body will increase several times. It may be possible to take down those hiding within the possessed body in a way other than direct attack.

Since it was not possible to cut down all the poor people who came in for free with the ‘Sapilgwijeonggeom’, this attempt was worth the effort.

“Roar, blue dragon.”

Leonard, who confirmed that ‘Sasang Gwiwonjin’ was completed within Kang Qigong and coordinated its direction, gave the order.

The blue dragon, accepting his will, stretched out its hair and said, Quaoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

From several kilometers away, a roar was loud enough to tingle my eardrums. The power of riding on the roar spreads like a wave and sweeps across the upper part of the barrier train.

Keeeeeeee… huh?

Kurrrrrr… Loong?

The Spriggans, who were blasted by the roar at close range, were the first to react. The eye glow that had been stained with malice and murderous intent becomes tinged with innocence, leaving the body that used to be like a rag and melting like a snowflake.

As soon as they returned from spirits to spirits, they reverted back to nature, but the spirits destroyed themselves without the slightest hesitation. As long as the natural laws of this world do not collapse, one day, you will be revived as a spirit again.

Kiiiiii…

Leonard’s mysterious intention, which unintentionally caused the Spriggans to commit suicide, caused even those who existed outside of his scope to feel unprecedented fear. For spirits who could not forgive their own filth, the power to force them to face their own filth was fatal.

Just as Cybele, who regained her identity for a moment, immediately went crazy, the spriggans also trembled with fear and astonishment.

and.

“uh?”

The Green Dragon Knights, who saw the group of Spriggans flowing away like the ebbing tide, unconsciously raised doubts.

It was a natural reaction.

Spriggans are people who use their bodies like expendable items, so they won’t retreat until the entire possessed body is destroyed. So the Green Dragon Knights, who had served on the Spriggan front for a long time, were prepared to fight until they all collapsed from exhaustion.

But aren’t the Spriggans jumping off the train and running like crazy in the opposite direction even though their possessed bodies are safe?

“No, you’re running away? “Those leech-like guys?”

“I have served on this front for 30 years, but this is my first time experiencing this.”

“They looked like they suddenly got scared.”

“Spriggans feel fear? “Of all the jokes I’ve ever heard, I can’t think of anything worse than that nonsense.”

Strangely enough, the escape occurred only around the place where the ‘Thoughts and Returns’, which Leonard was in charge of, was activated.

The battle itself seemed to be calming down as spriggans were dying on the rest of the front, but the atmosphere here was a little different.

“Making the Spriggan scared is something that even Captain Uruka couldn’t do.”

“Is it the power of the singularity? “It is terrifying and intimidating to the spirit body.”

From the perspective of people who knew nothing, they had no choice but to simply follow the cause-and-effect relationship of this unprecedented scene.

Something like the dragon shape that Leonard created.

The result was that all the spriggans defeated with it disappeared.

A sight that destroyed many spriggans with a single roar and caused the rest to run away in fear.

“… … “You mean the next generation of swordsmen?”

Even though they were excited by the excitement of the battlefield, they were cautious about that title, and someone muttered under their breath.

There was no way the Green Dragon Knights’ physical abilities could have missed it.

However, no one refuted or objected.

Only the majesty of the bold, even bold boy, smiling at the satisfactory result, was inspiring the Green Dragon Knights. Leonard himself didn’t even know what he looked like.

The Spriggans’ first large-scale offensive ended in half a day.

* * *

It was some time after that.

Room 7 in Area C.

Before departure, the four knight commanders were gathered in the conference room where Xehaire’s Garno and Uruka were meeting alone.

The leader of the Green Dragon Knights, Uruka.

Commander of the Red Dragon Knights, Wade.

Commander of the Black Dragon Knights, Audrey.

Commander of the Blue Dragon Knights, Grace.

Each one of them was a demigod with army-level strength, and as the Spriggans’ offensive continued over the past few days, they had annihilated more than 100,000 people each. The demigod-level ability and mental martial arts even erase the spiritual body hidden within the possessed body, so the more they kill them, the less burden the expedition team has to bear.

So, the battle continued without retreating from the front line, and even though a significant number of spriggans were killed, the situation did not improve significantly.

“There is approximately a week left to reach the area where Yggdrasil’s roots are revealed.”

The other three’s attention focused on what Uruka said.
