Episode 80.
Jung Si-woo laughed with joy. He wasn’t particularly interested in receiving attention, but it was a different story if the attention he received was from the enemy. It helped him know which one he needed to beat up more.
“Great reaction.”
“Are you always this reckless?”
“No.”
A group of undead was looking up at him as he smirked at the group of players that stopped flying, their eyes wide open.
“I never do anything reckless. I only do what I can.”
“That was the funniest joke I’ve ever heard from you, Oppa.”
Soo Ah-rin snorted. There were so many times when Jung Si-woo made her feel nervous. However, Jung Si-woo replied shamelessly.
“It’s all intuition.”
“Si-woo, here they come.”
[Kuuuuuuaaaaaaaa!]
The undead, which was filling the canyon, were ready for battle, letting out a terrible scream. Jung Si-woo’s group was spotted from the start, so it was okay. But it seemed to be very annoying to the other players who were sneaking upon them.
“You bastard…!”
The woman who appeared to be their leader frowned. She was a beauty with a sharp impression who appeared to be in her mid-20s. Unlike Marina, who was 23 years old and walked around in pigtails, the woman tied her reddish-blonde hair back…what? Was it just a ponytail? Jung Si-woo thought that these girls were similar in concept.
“This is our area, so get out of here.”
“Your area? You got to be kidding me.”
The woman pointed an artifact that looked like a gun at Jung Si-woo. In the past, Marina told him that she used to be the only mana bullet shooter, but this other woman was also using a gun as her main weapon.
“Since when has there been a preoccupation with the eradication of monsters? Is there a law like that?”
“Huh…there isn’t anything like that?”
To be sure, Jung Si-woo looked back and checked with Marina. She shook her head, so that meant there was no law like that. Well. That was a different story! B&Y didn’t come forward and secure it!
“I’ll talk to her. You’ll make her even angrier.”
As Jung Si-woo’s eyes narrowed behind the visor, Marina hurriedly spoke and held out her head next to Jung Si-woo.
“Seria Wilson, long time no see.”
“So it was you, Marina Bissett!”
When Marina peaked her head out from behind Jung Si-woo, the opponent seemed to grow even angrier. As expected, there seemed to be a prior bad relationship. Marina waved her hand as if she were annoyed as she spoke to the Emperor’s leader, Seria Wilson.
“Why didn’t you go to Utah? They seem to be in big trouble?”
“I decide where we go. This area looked worse than Salt Lake, only that. Marina Bissett, it’s nice that you have B&Y behind your back, but are you going to interfere with our freedom of action?”
Jung Si-woo murmured with surprise at the remark.
“Huh, She’s right, though…?”
“Whose side are you on!”
“No, but she’s right!”
Marina’s elbow was pounding into Jung Si-woo, nodding his head at the Emperor’s side. After seeing it, Seria Wilson(25, single)’s eyes narrowed.
“Are you two…?”
“Oh, this is my partner.”
Marina spoke confidently as if she had been waiting for the question. Somehow, it seemed that Seria Wilson suffered considerable mental damage.
“Pa, partner…? I expected you to be stuck in a dungeon all your life.”
“My motto is to do everything with my power and not miss anything.”
Jung Si-woo decided not to pay any attention to them anymore. In fact, the other guys were also turning their attention to the undead, letting the leader ramble on. There were even some guys who flapped their wings secretly and went down. He would lose his chance at this rate.
“Okay then. I can’t help it if you don’t want to back off.”
“What…Si-woo?”
Marina, who was arguing with Seria Wilson, heard his muttering and looked at him. Jung Si-woo was taking out the rifle of the thunder god from his inventory.
“Well, that…!”
Seria Wilson shouted.
“You gave him that? Are you two that close?”
“Hehe.”
Although the rifle wasn’t a token of love but a product of a deal, Marina didn’t elaborate. Because she knew her opponent would take it seriously! And Jung Si-woo was already triggering the rifle’s “option” by aiming at a point in the canyon without listening to them. The distance was pretty far, but for Jung Si-woo, who had the visual skill, it was possible to scrutinize the surface of every grain of sand.
“Hey, leader.”
How long had it been? Jung Si-woo opened his mouth when he was ready to fire.
“It’ll be dangerous if you don’t tell your guys to back off.”
“It’s just one mana bullet…”
“Charge shot.”
A bullet bearing the power of intense lightning was fired. While Marina and Seria Wilson were confronting each other, the players who were rushing into the canyon felt immense mana bearing down on them. They freaked out and scattered as the bullet passed by them. It hit the top of the canyon and exploded.
“Uh, uh…”
“This is a UNESCO heritage site!”
It was none of his business. The monsters who stayed there died instantly, and silk spread like spider webs around the point of impact…
“Uhhhhhhhh…!”
[Kuuuuaaaaaaaaaaa!]
When the undead group realized the seriousness of the situation, they tried to avoid it, but there was a great collapse with a tremendous roar! After the tectonic shift, things like the newly-emerged hills and the unstable overlapping valley collapsed and hit the monsters! Jung Si-woo confirmed the results made a triumphant smile.
“How was that! This is the shot that was born after studying how to break things effectively…!”
“You haven’t even studied it yet!”
“Oh, how did he do that with one shot…?”
“It’s a skill. A skill.”
Even Marina, who was aware of the change in her rifle, was shocked. Of course, the Emperor’s Guild was the most surprised. It was hard to believe what Marina, the world’s strongest mana shooter, created because this bullet was fired by Jung Si-woo!
“You don’t have anything else to say to him, do you? Let’s start hunting!”
“Okay, let’s go! …Can’t you take another shot before that?”
“Not enough mana.”
Jung Si-woo put his rifle back in and took out his hammer, hefting it instead. Jung Si-woo controlled his bike to descended in a straight line toward the ravine, which was still collapsing, and he made his hammer huge! Seria Wilson, who had been deprived of her player, blanked out for a moment and was shocked once again when she saw it and managed to regain her senses. She spread her wings wide and descended behind the bike.
“Hey, stop there…! Yieeek!”
“Try to catch up if you can!”
[Kyaaaaaooooo!]
“How dare you!”
Several undead were screaming when they saw the falling bike. The undead attacked them by throwing bones or shooting off their scales with angry roars, but they were immediately stopped by Marina’s bullets.
“Okay, here we go!”
The mana that was flowing through Jung Si-woo’s whole body rotated strongly along with the mana flow of the Cruel Charge skill, which strengthened Jung Si-woo’s whole body. Surprisingly, he was relying on the bike’s momentum to express his sprinting skill!
“How did you do that, Oppa?”
“It just happened!”
“Of course, it just did!”
The more his speed increased, the faster the mana rotated, and the greater the load on his body. But in return, the strengthening of the whole body also went beyond the limit! Jung Si-woo gritted his teeth and grabbed the handle of his hammer, the blood vessels sticking out on his forearms.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”
Just before the bike reached the edge of the canyon, Jung Si-woo swung the hammer hard to hit the rock layer that was still holding out. At that moment, there was a sound like a world was collapsing. Two shock waves joined together, expanding the area of collapse!
[Kuuaaaaaaaaa!]
[Setnaaaaaaaakk!]
The undead’s screams filled the air. Regardless, Jung Si-woo swung the hammer once more and knocked down the whole canyon. The others were dumb-struck at the catastrophe created by human power.
“Look, I told you I studied it.”
“Monsters are being swept away like ants…”
[Your level has risen.]
Then a pleasant message popped up. Although the level is low, so many monsters had been taken out at once. The mana collected from them brought Jung Si-woo to level 101. He returned the hammer to its original size and smiled.
“Okay, I wonder if all the threats have been sorted out here.”
“That also meant that many monsters weren’t that easy.”
“I’m going to use the bike.
“Okay.”
Jung Si-woo and Marina were bravely jumping to the scene where the ground was still collapsing. Seria Wilson also took care of her group and followed them.
“We can’t lose!”
“His attack probably used up a lot of his mana. Since we haven’t actually caught any elite monsters, good thing…”
“Sigh!”
[Kakagak!]
Jung Si-woo, who settled the bike on the ground, swung the front paw to smash the monsters in front of him. It was truly spectacular to see a huge sledgehammer sweeping away several meters in radius without having to magnify. And the fact that the undead that was hit by it disappeared without leaving a trace, like dust sucked into the vacuum cleaner, shocked everyone.
“…Who’s good now?”
“Just now, I don’t think he even used mana…”
Indeed, all of them shut up in front of the destructive power that the giant wolf granted him. He even thought that if he left it like this, he would really hurt that many undead by himself.
[Kiyaaaaaaaaaaa…for the glory of Setnak!]
“Si-woo!”
“Huh!”
The moment when there was a gap due to his big movement, a Skeleton Knight jumped over all the bodies of his comrades and stabbed him with a bone knife, but the next moment, he was beaten and crushed by the giant’s roar. Even Marina, who warned him, felt a little empty.
“One sledgehammer in each hand…?”
“Don’t worry. I only use both when I think it’s necessary.”
“But now it’s okay to hold one in each hand…”
Since Jung Si-woo was tall and well-built, he looked dashing when he held a hammer one in each hand. What’s more, he was swinging those giant sledgehammers lightly, destroying everything around them… Marina, who didn’t want to lose to him, didn’t hesitate to hold up her pistols.
[Human beings…who refuse us!]
[The grace of Setnak upon you. Soon you will be our companions!]
“I can’t lose!”
Her twin pistols, which had more performance than modern guns, rattled off. The undead, who were approaching as they leaped through the piles of rock, died one after another.
“At least I won’t let you get attacked!”
“That’s good to hear.”
“She’s just saying that she can’t stand in front because she’s not good at defense. Don’t be fooled, Oppa!”
“Well, why are you so hostile to her?”
“Foolish Oppa!”
“Now it’s me!?”
However, Marina was capable enough to take care of herself. It took less than 0.1 seconds to kill one and start firing at the next enemy, including the monsters that passed level 100. It was possible because of the combination of ridiculous physical abilities, mana control, and vision! Not only the power but also her speed of firing was faster than before, so she seemed to have developed a new skill.
“Marina Bissett…you’ve become stronger in that short period of time!”
“Thanks to my partner!”
“Grrr…is that the power of love!?”
“Hey, kill one more if you’re planning on talking nonsense. They’re about to join the battle.”
Jung Si-woo was dumbfounded as he glanced back at Marina. Seria Wilson, who stared at them as if she were very angry as she prepared for battle, and five of her men were standing there.
They readied to use their mana, and it was high enough to be called the losers of the West. Her men were roughly level 220, and Seria Wilson was well above level 230. But what was more important than that was the quality of their mana…the type.
“Is it okay because it’s the domain of another god?”
“Huh? Si-woo, what?”
“No, nothing.”
If possible, it was Jung Si-woo’s wish that “such a thing” wouldn’t happen. It wouldn’t be such a pleasant sight.
‘But they wouldn’t have come here for nothing…I think we need to be prepared.’
If possible, stop them. If you can’t stop them, you end them with your own hands. Before the ‘power of god’ they had in their bodies turned them into monsters.
