3 days later.
It is dawn when the cold night air wets the tip of the nose.
After walking all the way under the exceptionally bright night sky and arriving at Area 48, cold smoke leaked from Lennok’s mouth.
A long leather bag is hung from his back, and a tobacco stick is in his mouth.
Because the bag was rather heavy, I needed to forget my fatigue by smoking weed on the way.
“Whoa…”
It is true that I am nervous when I arrive at the port and breathe in the cool air.
Especially considering what he will do from now on.
Lennok lightly tapped both cheeks and sent Jenny a text saying that he was starting, and headed straight to the promised place.
“Co. You are the last.”
The four people who had gathered first and lowered their heads slowly turned their heads.
A skinny woman and a man with a bandit-like body. And two people who covered their faces with blue iron masks.
The two people who covered the masks were covering their entire bodies with a thick cloth so that their gender and body shape were not easily recognizable.
‘They’ve got all the stars…’
Lennok said and silently moved towards them, and the four of them took a step back in an instant.
A look that is clearly full of vigilance.
The discipline of the team mbers ahead of the operation did not seem to be lax.
The rightmost mask opened its mouth first. thick voice. It is undoubtedly a man’s.
He seed to have the biggest say in this place.
“Everyone knows the outline, so I’ll just summarize the details and get going.”
After saying that, he manipulated the device on his left wrist and floated a simple hologram in the middle of the crowd.
This is a skill that was demonstrated in front of the rcenaries under Dray Krimgaldo.
“Currently, there are seven entrances to the port of Area 48, which is blocked by Paul Ackerman’s enlisted n. Among them, except for the exclusive entrance for sailors and cargo transporters, it is neatly divided into five places. I take charge of each entrance one by one, subdue the soldiers and wait.”
The mindset that each person should do it thoroughly. It’s not bad.
His tone was quite overbearing, but everyone nodded their heads without much complaint.
“Distributors and Ackerman will go their separate ways and hold talks. When the eting place is specified, the confird side starts the operation first, and the rest imdiately join.”
Five small ear sets popped out of the masked man’s arms, and the other team mbers shared them one by one.
“It is a disposable communicator that can make contact. They are designed to break the circuitry overnight, so don’t keep them for too long. Then let’s begin.”
Judging from the way he speaks, it seems that Mask doesn’t expect much from the other team mbers in the first place.
It seed blatant to just fight moderately and ask for ti.
Lennox understands that feeling to so extent.
If you gather five people you don’t know right away and ask them to work together, trusting them would be even more strange.
Rather, the more simplified the operation, the more room for individual excellence to shine, so it is not necessarily only disadvantages.
“But you guys are really careless.”
The mont everyone understood the plan and was about to disperse, another mask standing next to the mask opened its mouth.
“You don’t even think about covering your face when you co out here? Dyke may have a lot of money, but he’s not responsible for their safety.”
Unlike the Masked Man, he has a relaxed yet high-pitched tone. this is a woman
Did you accept this request as a pair of n and won? It can be said that it is an unusual composition.
At the masked woman’s words, the three people, including Lennok, looked at each other silently and burst into laughter.
The skinny woman replied with a strange face as if mocking.
“You guys are not the people who work here.”
“…..what?”
“If you want to raise your ransom on this floor, you have to work with your face and na uncovered, whether you like it or not. Do you think you’ll care about having your face exposed unless there’s a special reason?”
It’s a special circumstance… Do such circumstances exist beyond Dylan’s grotesque mask?
Lennok suddenly recalled the first ti he had been commissioned to demolish a factory, and fell into a vague mory.
The masked woman seed briefly taken aback by the skinny woman’s words, but quickly recovered her emotions and turned around.
“As long as you do a good job, it won’t matter. Don’t grab my ankle.”
‘Looking at his attitude, it seems he’s not really from this side.’
As Lennok watched the masked n disappear among themselves, he sifted through the list of potential recruits from the Dyke side.
rcenary Gang, Freelance Soldier… It wouldn’t be surprising if you brought in a corporate ard force or even a criminal.
In the anti, a man who looked like a bandit tapped the skinny woman on the shoulder.
“Hey, where are you going?”
“…..It doesn’t matter where. Anyway, I wasn’t chosen here because I’m strong. I will take care of my own business.”
“okay? It’s a pity… If you’re the sa skinny guy, I wanted to go to the sa place as Lady.”
Looking at the man with a sinister smile, the woman ignored him with a cold face.
The man looked back at Lennok and smiled when the woman didn’t respond.
“I don’t think you’re the kind of person who puts in too much effort… Don’t die and follow to the port. If you make it difficult for no reason because of the lack of numbers, I will tear you out.”
Lennok didn’t respond and imdiately turned around.
Now I’m sick of this kind of bullshit so much.
It’s not too late to decide the right rank after the work is over.
If that man is still alive by then.
[Three two one. Go in.]
A dry voice ca through the ear set. There was a claim from the masked man that the timing of the rush should be matched together.
Breathing in the cold air deeply, we enter the harbor.
No sound can be heard around, only the sound of waves lapping the edge of the harbor in the distance reverberates low.
A ssy cent street lined with hundreds and thousands of containers.
Turning his head, all he could see was a steel container resembling cardboard, but Lennok already knew that there were a lot of people around.
His vast magic power sensing ability accurately detects those hiding everywhere and monitoring all directions.
All of them are holding heavy rifles in their hands and wearing hard bulletproof vests.
From the mask worn on the face to the sharp death that flows from the whole body.
They must be private soldiers hired by Paul Ackerman himself.
Undoubtedly.
Those gathered here today will never be the ones who carry their faces proudly in broad daylight.
‘Looks like Paul Ackerman hasn’t arrived yet. It’s worth it to arrive early.’
No one could withstand the hallucinatory magic that stuck in the eyes and ears of the enlisted soldiers.
The sound of other team mbers entering the harbor in different ways can also be heard.
[Kwajik!! Wow!]
Break through head-on.
[Ah, can you hear here? There’s nothing wrong with Jayden. I just want to change the patrol route, so please cooperate.]
Modulating the voice.
[Wheeying…!!]
Even the unknown machine sound.
In that short period of ti, it seems that people with various abilities have gathered.
I leisurely passed between the soldiers and took a seat in the corner of the clearing where I could see a large cargo ship at an angle.
Even among the privates, there were not a few who used magic sensing, but it didn’t an anything to Lennok.
It’s been a while before Paul Ackerman arrives.
Instead of fooling around while he waited blankly, Lennok decided to try so more tricks.
‘It would be better to reduce the number of heads in advance.’
Little by little, I adjust the hallucination magic cast on the enlisted soldiers who passed by in turn
.
Spray small hallucinations in your ears. Throwing a shadow in the field of view, raising the vigilance and releasing the magic.
“………”
Blocking their eyes and ears and continuing to inject signals to distract them, the unbearable soldiers raised their muzzles and slowly began to follow the trail.
Lennok smiled faintly as he watched the enlisted n approach one by one around the container.
I couldn’t have imagined it would happen this way.
No matter how rare the chance to et a mage was, you wouldn’t have known that among them you would et a mage who could use hallucination magic.
[Silence]
I brought enough bullets in preparation for an occasion like this.
Lennok slowly pulled the trigger one by one at the soldiers approaching slowly from behind the container.
container! container! container! container!
Every ti the trigger of the revolver was pulled, blood splattered and the stiffened soldiers fell like powerless puppets without any resistance.
Lennok, who had dealt with dozens of enlisted n in an instant, ca out from the back of the container again and hid himself in the corner of the clearing.
Appropriately, it hides itself in the shadow of the moonlight and rummages around its waist.
In Lennok’s hand was the Druid’s amulet that Mila had given him.
After roughly rubbing the amulet with my hands a few tis and putting it back on my waist, Lennok’s movent faded and he couldn’t even feel his breath.
Considering that it was a consumable item, it was like losing one rep, but Lennok was not vigilant.
Paul might not know it, but given that Russell was a war rcenary, there was a high possibility that his senses were sharper than the others.
It was not a waste to use the talisman to escape his senses.
Ti flies.
[……Entrance complete. Wait now, and let the one who found the target first send a signal.]
……Suddenly, the masked man’s words are becoming commands.
Lennok frowned slightly, but decided to wait until the request was finished. It wasn’t that much of an annoyance.
Soon after, the entrance of the harbor beca noisy for a mont, and several footsteps echoed with a muffled sound.
You can guess just by listening to the noise that gradually gets louder.
‘It’s on my side.’
Lennok tapped his earset, said a few words, and imdiately used the amulet again.
A car’s headlights shine through the containers, and a loud engine suddenly approaches.
About a dozen people entered the clearing and looked around anxiously.
They seed to be distributors dealing with Paul Ackerman.
After waiting a little longer, a sleek sedan slid into the clearing from behind.
The car door burst open and a handso middle-aged man and a black man got out together.
Paul Ackerman and Jude Russell.
With his navy blue shirt undone deeply, he waved at people with a confident smile on his face.
“Won!! Good night. The weather is just right for business talk. is not it?”
“………”
Distributors did not respond to his words and shrugged their shoulders in silence.
From that simple question and answer, it was clear where the superiority and inferiority relationship leaned between them.
Paul, without hesitation, put his hand on the shoulder of the distributor in front of him and started talking loudly.
It seed like there was a lot to say.
“I want to say thank you very much for making this a place like this today. Actually, I also had a lot of things I wanted to say to my co-workers, but it was difficult to seize the opportunity.”
“What do you an…”
“I worked hard to give them back money, take care of dicines, and oil the public servants diligently to help them do their jobs well. But there was nothing coming back to . It’s not like I’m digging the ground and doing business. I have a give, but I can’t take it.”
Kwaaaak.
Paul muttered as he grabbed the distributor by the shoulders.
“I’m a little angry too.”
“…Kuh! Let go of this!”
The red-faced distributor cut off Paul’s arm and gave him a look of regret, but Paul’s feelings seed to have crossed an irreversible line.
Wow!
The properly slapped distributor collapsed and Paul started stomping on him frantically.
“These fucks keep on! repeatedly! repeatedly! You’re blowing my money, but I’m not going to go crazy!!”
Puck! Puck! Puck!
The distributor crouched down without protest, and the others standing behind him watched without a word.
Lennok watched the scene from a distance, then slowly drew a revolver from his bosom.
I called the other team mbers, but I had no intention of just watching them until they ca.
In the end, wouldn’t it be cleaner to take care of things by hitting the first gong in so way?
The important thing is timing.
Just the right gap for Lennok to hit and the team to arrive and wipe out all the people gathered here at once.
And Lennok’s vast magic power perception already accurately estimated the ti.
I pulled the cock of my preloaded revolver and slowly put my finger on the trigger.
The gun was aid precisely at Paul’s back.
Build up sub-magic.
[Aim correction]
[Trace concealnt]
[Rotation acceleration]
According to the information, Paul Ackerman is an ordinary person with no magical powers.
And Jude Russell is looking around in all directions, well over five ters apart.
With 3 assistive shooting spells, the garage was overflowing.
[Aim Correction] assists Lennok’s poor marksmanship, [Trace Concealnt] covers the trajectory of bullets shaking in the dark night, and [Rotational Acceleration] will stir up Paul’s upper body the mont it hits.
Count two and pull the trigger.
[Silence] Barrel activated at the sa ti
!
Bullets are fired with a faint noise that only Lennok could hear.
The mont the bullet, hidden in the shadows of dawn, pierced Paul’s shoulder blade without an inch of error and was about to shatter his flesh.
Kaaang!!
Jude Russell appeared right behind Paul and swung his arm like lightning to deflect the bullet.
In his hand was a long sword that had been drawn before he knew it.
“…….”
Lennok silently lowered the smoking gun.
“What!!”
“what is this sound!”
“Soone shot!! There’s soone else here!!”
Paul sighs as he stares at the disorganized distributors.
He looked at Jude and nodded, and imdiately he jumped into action.
Aweso!!
“Quaaaaagh!!”
It was a deep cut in the shoulder of the distributor who was the first to run away.
Blood spurts nakedly and the cut man collapses with a scream.
However, on the contrary, the mouths of others were closed in an instant.
Paul, who made the whole area quiet with a single move, looked at the distributors and said.
“How have our custors been selling drugs all these years while being afraid of this?”
“Ha, but…”
“You bastard, you won’t die. a little!”
Kwaaaaang!!
As soon as Paul finished speaking, a blue laser fell from the sky and swept the ground.
Paul and the distributors’ bodies were swept away by intense heat.
“Kaaaa!!”
“Ah ah ah ah..!!”
“Buy and save..!!”
People screaming and howling from the burning heat.
Lennok glanced around and looked at the man who had just dropped a bombardnt on this spot.
The masked woman who arrived first was standing on top of a three-story container and looking down at them.
“I was lucky to be able to take care of all the trash in one go. Is this the end of this mission?”
“Hey, you haven’t even checked the body yet and you’re already getting excited? And Jude Russell didn’t even get swept up in it.”
Whoop!
A ray of blue light flashed from the mask at the skinny woman’s scolding that appeared next to the masked woman along with black smoke.
It seed to be an expression of emotion.
“Never mind. This one will only deal with Paul Ackerman and leave.”
Lennok, who looked up at the sharp battle of nerves between the two won, quietly raised the amulet again.
It seed like I could use the talisman once more while my eyes were focused on that side.
Imdiately, one of the patterns engraved on the amulet disappears, and Lennok’s presence fades again.
Whether Lennok agrees or not, the two won’s bickering continues.
“Are you deciding that on your own? If sothing like this happens, I will also protest against Dyke. You don’t think you’re the only one being treated and thinking you’ve been put into this quest?”
“So, don’t worry…”
The mont the masked woman turned her body around while the mask flashed further—-
Fuuk!
A white blade protruded from the skinny woman’s chest like a flash war.
“…….”
Silence passed.
As the skinny woman looks down at her chest with a blank expression, the blade slowly slips away from her body.
Aweso!
It took an instant for Jude Russell, who was standing behind, to appear at the sa ti as the woman’s head flew through the sky.
“Ladies. You shouldn’t be so loud in the middle of the night. My custor is uncomfortable.”
At so point, Jude climbed onto the container and said with a grin.
The masked woman staggered backwards with a look of shrinking in an instant.
“How the hell did he… get through my detection net…”
“How can he use it when the reaction is so slow? You managed to crawl into this place with your skills that you didn’t even notice until a knife was planted in your heart.”
Saaah…
He licked the blood off his sword and shook his head.
“It tastes awful. But for a first tasting today, it’s not bad.”
Tasting blood and talking like that… Lennok’s head imdiately decided what sort of Jude Russell he was.
“This profit…!!”
Wheein!!
With the appearance of the masked woman clenching her teeth, her wrists opened wide, and blue light leaked out from within.
Lennok then realized how she had fired those lasers.
Jude stared at her with a funny look, probably the sa.
“I see now that you have very stylish wrists. Were you a mber of Cybrid Echo?”
Cybrid Echo. It is a general term for a series or organization that combines the essence of magic engineering with the human body to pursue maximum functionality with a small amount of magical power.
It was rare to see it with the naked eye, so it was the first ti Lennok actually saw it.
But Jude wasn’t too surprised and shook his head regretfully.
“Blood mixed with oil just feels good. I should just kill him.”
“…..I don’t think you know who’s cornered right now. I already killed Paul Ackerman, so all I have to do is kill you alone with the rest of the team.”
The masked woman gritted her teeth and fired at her to regain her montum, but Jude didn’t respond and pointed down the container.
Only Paul Ackerman, who was swept away by the laser she fired earlier, looked up at them with a normal complexion and laughed.
A faint circular shield wrapped around his body.
It’s half broken and tattered, but at least it’s like it’s definitely blocked the woman’s attack once.
And to Paul Ackerman, that seed to be enough.
“…..!!”
“Hey there girl. You didn’t think I’d heard anything about the uninvited guests coming tonight?”
“This is nonsense…”
“I also have my own thoughts and prepared in my own way. And I invited another guest for this occasion today. Shall we check your face?”
Fuck!
As Paul said that, he snapped his fingers, and as if he had waited, soone walked out of the darkness covered by the container.
jerk jerk.
The sound of sothing dragging along with it.
“Ah ah…”
And this ti, as if from an irreversible shock, the woman staggered violently.
The new custor, who had heard Paul’s words and walked out, held the head of a man wearing the sa mask as her.
Inside the half-shattered mask, you can see the face of a young man distorted in pain, and veins and wires dangling from his twisted neck.
And it was a man with a bandit-like appearance, who had been on their team an hour ago, who appeared with that bizarre and heinous corpse.
The man smiled and waved his hand.
“Long ti no see?”
Turn
“Hahahahaha!!”
Paul Ackerman let out a grotesque laugh and tapped the bandit man on the shoulder.
“Stupid bastards. Didn’t it ever occur to you that I could recruit other people who were hired in reverse?”
He continued to make a loud noise as he approached the container where the woman was standing with a commanding stride.
“The work is so clumsy that it makes laugh out loud. You should have known that if you had the right amount of money, nothing would be impossible on this floor.”
clap.
“don’t worry. Because I won’t kill you well. First of all, open your brain full of machines, extract all the information, and personally feed the custor who dared to point a knife at …..” Just at
that mont when Paul was in full swing.
Due to the effect of the talisman, Lennok, who was hiding right next to him, pulled the trigger with all his might.
Taaaaang!!
An intense gunshot rang out right next to it.
The tattered shield was shattered at once, and the firepower of the shotgun fired from extrely close range ripped open the defenseless flesh beyond it.
Paul didn’t speak any more. No, Paul was nowhere to be found.
With the upper body completely gone, the lower body, which had been stirring in the air, trembled and collapsed.
Lennok looked down at the scene, then slowly lowered the object he was holding in his hand.
In his hand was a long, thick shotgun that was completely different from the revolver he had before.
For today’s event, Lennok brought a shotgun directly from Gun & Barrel and wore it in a leather bag.
It’s not suitable for fighting while holding and moving directly, but if you combine it with the Druid’s amulet, you will definitely have a chance to use it at least once—-
and that idea fit very precisely.
Paul Ackerman crossed the Jordan River without finishing his petty boasting.
“!!!!!”
The complexion of the bandit man and Jude Russell changes in an instant.
“Uuuuuuuuu!!”
The bandit man threw away the corpse of the masked man he was holding and threw his whole body at Lennok with his arms raised.
At the sa ti, Jude Russell also threw away all his leisure and rushed at the masked woman in front of him.
It must be to kill him as soon as possible and to pinpoint Lennok.
It is impossible to evade from the mont it appears.
Raise the shield to the maximum in preparation for the upcoming attack of the bandit man.
Its strength is incomparable to that of the shield that Paul used as a temporary asure by borrowing the power of an artifact.
Whoa!!
But at that mont, sothing pale blue began to dwell in the bandit man’s forearms.
At the sa ti, his forearms swelled up to twice as much, and the speed accelerated like crazy, turning into a flash of light and getting hit by the shield.
get shot down
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
The ground is knocked down centering on both of his hands, and the containers stacked high in all directions are shaken.
Lennok’s body sinks into the depths of the ground, where it sits.
In the midst of that chaos, Lennok checked the senses of the shield that was gradually being destroyed and inadvertently broke out in a cold sweat.
Wow Jangchang!!
One layer, two layers, three layers, and four layers…!!
A power that cannot be explained by a simple torso attack.
Compared to the aftermath of the re collapse of the ground, the impact on the shield was beyond imagination.
It was proof that the concentration of the hit that the bandit hit was comparable to the firepower of a heavy weapon.
This is dangerous.
Looking at the shield penetrating downward, Lennok, whose head turned cold in an instant, imdiately raised his mana.
The most appropriate solution in this situation right now is not magic.
He quickly reloaded the shotgun he was holding and piled up his secondary magic.
[Reload Acceleration]
[Aim Correction]
[Impact Enhancent]
I put my finger on the trigger after casting the triple auxiliary magic.
Taaaaang!!
I hit the man with two shotguns that were quickly loaded into the man’s abdon, stopping his movent for a mont.
The bullet that blew away Paul Ackerman’s upper body in one shot just now ends up pushing the man’s body all the way back and slicing through the flesh in his abdon.
The man, too, did not care about such an injury and imdiately jumped forward and continued the attack.
He had an intuition that destroying the shield right now would be a greater benefit than imdiate damage.
But that mont of relaxation was enough.
I brought the shotgun whose magazine was empty to the ship and used shock magic once more.
firepower is small. recoil to the maximum.
The direction is precisely towards Lennok himself.
Faaaaang!!
“It’s big…!!”
He used a shotgun as a shield, but the impact of his own magic was indescribably painful.
The butt of the shotgun that couldn’t overco the impact snapped in half, and Lennok’s stomach was crushed in a strange direction.
An irrational judgnt that uses offensive magic against oneself.
However, due to the recoil, Lennok’s body was pushed back and he quickly escaped the man’s range of attack.
Right after that, the man’s two fists slamd to the ground, smashing the cent floor.
Aaaaaaang!!
Debris bounces in all directions, shaken containers collapse here and there, and black stone powder flutters like fog in the harbor at night.
Lennok tossed the broken shotgun he was holding away and moved with his stomach clenched.
Woowook…!!
I was prepared, but cold sweat dripped from my forehead at the unimaginable pain.
With trembling hands, he took out a cigarette from his bosom, burned it, and frantically inhaled the smoke, only then did the pain begin to subside little by little.
“……Whoa whoa…!!”
There is no ti to rest for a long ti.
Lennok’s head was still cold, despite the madness of smashing magic into his own stomach.
High-speed movent or evasion-type magic consus very strong mana and the calculation process is complicated, so it was difficult for Lennok to use it during battle.
Especially in the case of [blinking] magic, which can be said to be the pinnacle of combat movent magic, it is a magic that cannot be easily used even in World 2.0 without eting the growth limit.
For Lennok, who cannot imdiately secure mobility, he has no choice but to escape from the crisis in front of his eyes, even by using rather extre asures.
Kwaaaang!!
A man jumped out of his seat and walked towards Lennok with a grim smile.
“Hehe, I thought he was just an idiot, but he turned out to be a guy with a knack. good night. My ancestors love such courage very much.”
With those words, a whitish figure erged behind the man’s broad back.
Lennok could now guess that it was dramatically increasing the physical abilities of a powerful man.
Of course, the power of the body is not to the level of transcendence, as it was when confronted with the Croken Asilus… but that strength alone is enough to threaten Lennok.
Instead of replying to those words, he spreads his mana wide and slowly scans all directions.
You should know how Jude Russell and the Masked Woman’s confrontation ended so you can decide how to fight.
The man smiled even thicker at Lennok, who did not raise an eyebrow despite his threats.
“To be honest, I want to save you right here. Because you blew Paul Ackerman’s cobwebs, it’s made things so much easier on my part.”
“……..”
“Hehe… Even the advance paynt I received from both sides is enough to kill my stomach, but if we clean up the cleanup like this, there won’t be any need to put the dyke side and the fishing grounds.”
Lenok replied, wiping the cold sweat on his forehead.
“What if there were no witnesses?”
“ha ha ha! …..okay. Unless there are eyewitnesses.”
The man’s smile becos more vivid.
Originally, after being betrayed once, he must have been determined to join Paul Ackerman’s cartel.
But with the sudden death of Paul Ackerman, another opportunity opened up for the man.
If I could get rid of all the witnesses right here, I’d be able to hold hands with Dyke again as if the mission had been successful.
In the process, he took the thick advance money that Paul had given him.
And at that mont, Lennok’s sensory sphere felt the connection between the two people who were not here.
A showdown between the Masked Woman and Jude Russell.
Lennok, who sensed the situation right away, let out a blank laugh.
‘Did he run away… that’s great as it is.’
Surprisingly, the masked woman succeeded in escaping against Jude Russell.
And Jude Russell, who missed his target, turned exactly the other way and was coming back this way.
If I had to deal with these two, I would have to completely revise my plans so far.
“Whoa…..”
There is no ti to delay.
Lennok let out a deep breath of smoke and then turned around and started running.
Dada da…!!
“….!!”
While biting the tobacco and inhaling the dicine, you can move like a normal person.
Taking that into account, if Lennok could lure the opponent in the way he thought, he would be able to solve the lack of mobility as well.
However, the man did not just watch it quietly.
Kwaaaaang!!
“Where are you running, you bastard!!”
He picked up a container with both hands and threw it at Lennok.
No matter how much he strengthened his strength, he didn’t seem to be able to shoot the container like a bullet, but the intimidation of the container box flying in a parabola while blocking the moonlight in the night sky was also formidable.
Woooooo!!
Fortunately, the randomly thrown container did not crush Lennok, but the sight of Lennok tearing through the thick iron plate with both hands and chasing after him was terrifying.
‘I can’t run away. If only I could move the seat right in front of …’
The recoil of the shotgun planted in the lower abdon starts to tingle with excitent.
It’s a sha because it’s controlled by the energy of dicine.
The ti to escape from that strong warrior with this weak physical strength and injured body is limited.
A short break of less than 30 seconds.
The containers that the man lifts and throws are tied up with gravity binds, pulled down, and the revolver is fired a few tis in the back, sohow increasing the amount of ti.
“Heh heh heh heh…!!”
Sweat flows all over my body and my breath is short of breath just by running for a short ti, but I can’t help it.
At least I had to be thankful that I could play with my two legs like everyone else.
Quaang! Quaang!
Only a deafening roar echoes in the midnight harbor.
The place where Lennok arrived after passing through the night sky with more than ten containers flying around was the end of the harbor overlooking the sea right next to the vacant lot.
A runaway drama that lasted less than a minute. From Lennox’s point of view, it was the result of his own skill.
The man said with a laugh as if it was absurd.
“Contrary to what it looks like, I tried swimming. It’s not that easy to swim in the night sea.”
“Whoa whoa… what are you talking about?”
“Didn’t you co all the way here to escape by sea? I don’t understand why I’ve been running at that speed so far without doing that.”
Lennok, who had been holding his breath for a while at those words, put on a pitiful expression.
“I have no thoughts. Do you think you can survive for two hours in the sea in this weather?”
“Well, there’s no way that kind of thing would be possible with that body.”
The man imdiately nodded and smiled.
“Then you just ca to see the night sea in search of a good place to die… You’re more emotional than I thought, right?”
“………”
Not long after, a very angry sign stepped in this direction.
I’m sorry!!
An empty container is cut diagonally and slides down, and a man with veins on his head walks in from beyond.
The man chuckled at Jude.
“In the end, you chased it all the way there and couldn’t even kill it properly. That’s why you can’t protect the target properly.”
“shut up.”
Jude’s eyes glared at him with a sharp shot.
“Cybrid Echo is even attempting biotransmission to save her, so what are you saying?”
“Oh… that’s definitely unexpected.”
Biotric transmission… Judging from the fact that even the man knew about the word, it seed that her tissue had risked a lot of blood to save her.
Jude looked back at Lennok and smiled as if he had grasped the situation.
“From the looks of it, it doesn’t seem like he escaped much, but his expression looks pretty good. Have you already accepted death?”
“I have a question.”
Lennok asked instead of responding to the taunting remark.
“You have no reason to kill , do you? Your work would be over when Paul Ackerman died.”
“…That’s a pretty useless question for asking right before you die.”
Judd tilted his head and opened his mouth without hesitation.
Should it be considered leisure? I heard the answer obediently, probably convinced that Lennok could not return alive.
“First of all, since the target of my escort is dead, shouldn’t I save face by taking revenge? And…”
“And?”
Jude Russell, who had been staring at Lennok, smiled cruelly.
“Because it was Juice Master who entrusted with this escort request. If the guard failed, wouldn’t there be an excuse to carry around the culprit’s head?”
“……..”
“Of course, I won’t cut my head just because the boss on the other side of the earth died, but it’s not sothing I can just pass over.”
Was the rumor true that Paul Ackerman was Juicemaster’s subordinate?
If the drug lord sent him directly to protect his limbs, he would surely not be an ordinary person.
I only heard that he was from a war rcenary, but the movents he showed earlier were also quite high.
After all, it was necessary to kill them at once on the spot.
Since you’ve co this far, everything has already been prepared.
Lennok, who had made up his mind, nodded and slightly raised his mana.
The flow
is so stealthy that the two waves don’t even notice, yet swift and breezy.
Stack it up with magic at once.
[Reverse Gravity]
Woooooooooo!!!
Right after that, the gravity in all directions is accurately reversed, and objects around it, including containers, begin to float upward at once.
The bizarre scene in which the laws of physics are overturned as the direction of gravity is reversed.
It was an instant for the two people who had been firmly planted on the ground until then to change their expressions.
“…..!!”
But the response was quick.
Quaang!!
A man sticking his hand into the cent floor and holding out, and Jude staring at Lennok with a sword drawn and a flower on the ground.
Lennox shook his head calmly.
I didn’t expect to be able to do a lot of damage simply by turning gravity upside down.
[Reverse Gravity] is famous for its superficial majesty and its powerful effect of reversing gravity, so it consus a huge amount of mana, but it is not very practical.
If you want to bind your opponent, it is more reasonable to use [Gravity Bind].
But, nevertheless, there was a reason Lennok dared to reverse gravity right here.
The first to notice the anomaly was Jude Russell.
“…..Wait, this direction!!”
The direction of gravity is not exactly reversed.
An ominous thought flashed through Jude Russell’s mind as he saw five or six containers floating in the air all at once moving in a direction away from the sea.
Lennok grinned.
“It feels good.”
Aaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
As soon as he finishes his words, the waves rising from the port frantically swell and stretch toward the sky.
Lenok reversed the gravity of this area and at the sa ti included the sea behind him in its scope.
The waves stretched out and slanted enough to cover the sky for a mont and cast a second shadow in the middle of the night.
At the sa ti, Lennok moved his mana once more.
Unlike before, it took control of the space in an instant and distorted the source of the two people’s strength.
Wooded Deuk!!
“Kuh…!! What the fuck is this..!!”
“Magic power…?!”
If you are a skilled person like them, there is a high possibility that you will not be able to do it again after being hit once, but rather, that’s why you need to catch the best timing.
Even though I had many opportunities to kill the man while running away, I endured it and ran all the way here for this mont.
That brief mont when the movents of the two people, who were trying to avoid the oncoming waves, turned into those of ordinary people.
A huge amount of sea water covers the three people as they are.
Aaaaaaa!!
The salty water that drenches the edge of the harbor.
Before the moisture had evaporated, Lennok pulled up his mana with all his might.
I felt the mana go through my stomach and return as a burden to my body, but I gritted my teeth and pushed it up to the top of my head.
The burden of using mana, which consus a lot of mana in succession, was not an issue to consider in the current situation.
In this place, there is a lot of moisture that has spread thickly, and cold air like frost flows out.
[Ice Round]
Wow!!
In the blink of an eye, the seawater that flowed between the ports freezes and grabs and binds everything floating in the air.
A huge block of ice hardened into the shape of a wave sweeping over the entire visible clearing and squeezing it down.
It is less powerful than [Frost Horn], which is used as an anti-personal freezing magic, but the casting ti is extrely short and the range is wide, assuming that there is moisture in advance.
Magic that can be used most efficiently and powerfully only at this mont.
Whittling white steam through his teeth, Lennok quickly drew a revolver from his waistband.
[Aim Correction]
[Strengthen Trigger]
[Rotation Acceleration]
In the blink of an eye, the revolver’s muzzle, which had piled up three sub-enchantnts, aid at one of the two frozen people in an instant.
Considering the skills of the bandit man and Jude Russell, the ti to keep them captive is not long.
If it had to be taken care of, who would be the first to kill?
It was after the troubles were over.
Lennok pulled the trigger hard without hesitation.
Taang!!
Flas leaked through the muzzle and smoke flew.
At the sa ti, half of the head of the bandit man, who had been frozen in a hesitant position, was shattered.
Few!!
Hot blood gushed out with a dull sound like a snowball breaking.
The man finally released from bondage stared at Lennok in disbelief.
“It can’t be like this. Just because I couldn’t move for a mont…!!”
Do you think and speak properly even after half of your head is blown off?
Proof that n are not low level warriors who die in vain like this.
But Lennok did not respond and imdiately pulled the trigger once more.
What did it matter how strong and skilled he was?
The man was careless and did not fully grasp Lennok’s abilities.
That was the only loss.
leave no regrets
The strength that the bandit-like man had strengthened by summoning the spirits of his ancestors was so strong that even Lennok could not easily handle it from the front.
I don’t know how strong Jude Russell is, but it was right to calculate the next fight by eliminating the visibly identified danger.
Taang!!
“Mr. Baal…!!”
Jude Russell is freed from the icy chains at the sa ti as the man’s corpse falls from the neck down.
quick!!
At the sa ti, his body left only a vague afterimage, then disappeared in an instant and appeared in front of Lennok like a flash war.
A bold decision aid at right after the magician uses magic.
It’s an unbelievably good choice, considering that my whole body was pickled in the cold just a mont ago.
Kaaaa!!
He must have thought that he had to break the shield with just one attempt.
Of course, he must have tried to take advantage of this golden opportunity by putting all his magic power into it.
However, Lennok did not fall twice in the sa attempt to destroy the shield.
Uuuuuuuuuu…!!”
If the shields that were simply overlapped were destroyed by the mighty strength, it would be enough to change the arrangent of the shields.
The gap between the shields is subtly spaced, and the mont an attack approaches, the direction is twisted little by little, causing the direction of the force to be slashed each ti one is shattered.
If you didn’t know if you weren’t prepared like before, you could cope with any situation you already knew.
You have to pay a little more attention to magic control, but it’s enough in situations where you only focus on defense.
“Kuh…!!”
He must have hoped that Lennok would look as confused as the bandit man did earlier.
But it was Jude Russell who bit his lip.
The mont he realizes that the first attack is blocked, Jude’s new model makes a strange sound and disappears in an instant.
The mont he confird Lennok’s strength, he intuitively felt that there was no answer in a head-to-head confrontation.
Faaaa!!
Quickly moving in all directions, desperately aiming for gaps in the shield made by Lennok.
He saw through to the fact that the shield opened by Lennok could not work in all directions in that short period of ti, and ca up with the most effective counterasure.
Shik…!! Shik…!!
Only the noise of the shrieking wind rustling over the ice of the harbor that has beco a ss reverberates.
tutter tong!!
The empty footsteps heard while stepping on empty containers dozens of tis, and the cargoes whose corners were cut off unable to overco the anticipation.
In the invisible wind of death, Lennok clutched his revolver and waited for him to co.
I know that Jude Russell will not run away from this place.
All that remains is if Lennok can detect Jude’s intentions and subdue them.
That was the only problem.
And Lennok believed in his own talent and in his own power.
walk forward slowly
Rather, it is a defenseless act that opens a gap.
However, instead of rushing forward, Jude sped up a little more and dazzled Lennok’s senses as he watched the situation.
Contrary to his arrogant speech skills, he has an extrely cautious attitude.
The gap brought a faint smile to Lennok’s lips.
Whii profit!!!
Lennok never dared to guess, but never later than expected.
That fleeting mont that accurately penetrates the gap between the senses and the gap between thoughts.
Jude erged from Lennok’s left flank and thrust the blade in.
A movent so natural that you would never even feel it if you were not very conscious.
A single move that makes you realize how skilled a murderer Jude Russell is.
But Lennok reacted.
Kwaaaaang!!!
At the sa ti as Jude appeared next to him, he struck his shock magic and knocked his head to the ground.
Jude’s upper body fell over as if soone had grabbed his hair.
In an instant, the purple whip tightly bound his limbs.
With that, the battle was over in an instant.
Jude, whose deadly attack had gone to nothing, looked up at Lennok with disbelief.
“Oh how…!!”
Lennok replied calmly.
“From the beginning.”
His gaze goes to the piece of ice still buried on the edge of Jude’s coat.
A piece of his magic that Lennok left after using [Ice Round].
Although it is difficult to detect even that speed with the naked eye, Lennok’s ability to detect magical power is different.
Even more so, tracking the movent of the magical power that Lennok had directly sown was simpler than chasing the invisible with eyes wide open.
From the mont Jude Russell was bathed in seawater, Lennok was already holding on tightly to victory.
Jude, who finally grasped the situation, struggled to get up sohow with a pale face, but the magic Lennok had prepared was implented first.
Hey hey…!!
The shadow that rose from under Jude’s feet beca a very large mouth and swallowed the lower half of his body.
The shadow-type surprise magic, which exerts its true value in the dark, worked properly this ti as well.
What followed was a desperate scream.
“Keah haaaaa!!!”
Jude, who had lost both legs in a single attack, let go of the knife with a painful groan.
He groaned slowly and began to run away, dragging his torso behind him, slowly pushing his arms back as if he was sohow trying to get away from Lennok.
But instead of pursuing him, Lennok burst out laughing.
His last bet seed too obvious.
“Do you want to be tricked by licking blood so deliciously right in front of my eyes?”
“………”
Hearing those words, Jude Russell’s body stood still.
Fudduk!!
Without a word, it turns into a red mist and starts to run away through the night sky.
vampire.
strong physical abilities. cunning combat intelligence. thirst for blood. The ability to cast blood mist.
They are similar to werewolves, but they pursue pure blood by achieving power in a different way.
Have I finally t the two races that are similar but different like a mirror?
But no further curiosity arose.
Vampires’ Bloodification (血化) is a very useful ability, but it makes them much more vulnerable to attacks.
Taking that form when running away was really just a last resort.
Lightning strikes from the barren sky.
Confirming that the faint silhouette had turned to ashes in the eye-popping flash and that even the fishy presence had completely disappeared, Lennok slowly turned his back.
Only after the battle is over, my mouth is dry and my head is suddenly pounding.
Lennok, realizing that he had run out of dicine, hurriedly lit a new cigarette.
“Whoa…”
He sat down on a piece of container that had been neatly sliced by Jude Russell’s blade and let the smoke flow.
I can feel my sweaty shirt cooling down quickly in the night breeze.
Indeed, my lungs were already aching and my legs were throbbing, probably because I had been working hard for a long ti.
My stomach, which had been hit by a shotgun, also throbbed rcilessly.
When I lifted my shirt and checked my stomach, there was already a large blue bruise on the lower part of my stomach.
Even though he was sucking on cash buns, at this level, the pain wouldn’t be too bad after the effect of the dicine had ended.
Negotiation
‘wasn’t easy.’
I blankly let go of the smoke and recall this battle.
I was prepared when I received the request from Dyke, but this ti, too, it was not easy.
Considering the quests Lennok had experienced up to this point, the level of the opponent was also relatively high.
Neither the bandit-like man nor Jude Russell would have had the skills to walk around with their heads down recklessly on this floor.
It’s just that Lennok had a power and talent they couldn’t have predicted and was able to bring it out precisely at the most fatal mont.
In the end, that’s all there is to it.
In an endless battle, Lennok must constantly prove himself.
Alleviation of the penalty More money Comfortable living… All is aningless if you can’t pass this basic premise.
And because of that, Lennok was able to put all his thoughts aside for that mont and fully focus on the battle.
Rather, I started to feel comfortable in this ti of fighting for my life.
‘……This is dangerous.’
Lennok thought as he watched the end of the burning butt.
After all, it is like an addiction to drugs.
Once you start to taste the stimulation, it is not easy to get away from it.
Instead of dipping your toe in the bog and trying to get out of it, you have to thoroughly manage yourself so that you can avoid the bog from the beginning.
This is absurd.
I thought that he was engrossed in running, hoping for one thing more than anything else, but rather it seed to be starting to hold Lennok’s ankle little by little.
But it’s sothing he started and was determined to do again.
I have to endure it.
Lennok yet?
