Chapter 126 : To the Labyrinth (12)
A 70mm 12 gauge shotgun shell carrying Demonic energy struck Tychus.
“Kuaaak!”
This ti, it was definitely effective.
Without hesitating, I concentrated Demonic energy on the shotgun shell again and pulled the trigger as it was.
Taaaang!!
As if proving the Double Barrel's rapid-fire capability, the 70mm 12 gauge shotgun shells fired sequentially literally turned the armor Tychus was wearing into rags.
In a situation where the armor's durability itself had already dropped significantly from withstanding firearms earlier, being hit by a shotgun carrying Demonic Bullets at such close range, even the sturdy armor had no ans to withstand it.
“Kkeu-euk......!”
Tychus, who couldn't overco the shock and was knocked away, struggled with pain and tried to raise his body sohow.
He certainly seed to have made quite a big impact.
I had no intention of missing this opportunity.
‘I'll finish it now.’
I have seen countless guys who lost their necks inversely while spouting this and that nonsense to an opponent who needlessly lost their will to fight.
Clack, clack-
Quickly reloading the B686 Double Barrel Shotgun, I aid the muzzle towards Tychus as it was.
Taang!!──
However, even though he took the impact, Tychus, whose movent was still alive, rolled his body at once and dodged the gunfire.
“Damn, bastard!”
Flas began to burn from Tychus's entire body.
Self-Combustion.
Most players have one or two spells to use as a trump card.
Tychus was the sa.
Chiiik......!
Self-Combustion, a type of Blazing Fire Magic, is magic that grants trendous physical ability enhancent and pain ignoring effects temporarily by offering oneself as a prize.
[Watch out!]
Kuuuuung!!!
Demonic Spirit's Magic rose again and blocked the wielded slash, but it couldn't completely block even the shock.
It was natural that I, unable to overco the shock, was knocked away.
It ant that after Self-Combustion, Tychus's physical abilities rose to a level incomparable to before.
“......Keuk.”
Rolling backwards several tis, I barely regained my balance.
Sswaek!
If getting up had been even a little delayed, my neck would have been cut by the slash that followed as it was, but thanks to barely widening the distance stepping with the Gale Step, the barrel of the B686 Double Barrel Shotgun was split in half instead of my neck.
It was bad news, but it was the best judgnt for now.
“You won't die peacefully.”
Tychus, with smoke rising from his entire body, threw off the ragged armor and emitted a ferocious aura.
‘The situation is bad.’
GF-40 Grenade Launcher.
B686 Double Barrel Shotgun.
AKR-74 Assault Rifle.
I have exhausted all three weapons possessing the most powerful might among the weapons I currently possess.
Of course, I could summon them again if I endure the cooldown ti, but would I even be able to endure until then?
The answer was negative.
‘Now the only weapon left to is the Colt Garrison B-09.’
Since I've already confird that even Demonic Bullets only inflict moderate damage to Tychus, it was difficult to inflict a fatal wound with this.
“Running away here and there like a rat ends here too.”
Dozens of slashes wrapped in flas rushed towards .
Kwang─!
Kwakwakwang!!
Barriers of Demonic energy rose and blocked the slashes, but this ti, the Demonic Spirit Lion-Keter scread.
[Kkeu-euk......!]
“Can you hold on more?”
[If sothing like this cos a few more tis...... then it's the limit......!]
As expected.
‘Can't be helped.’
I drew the Fang of Blazing Fire.
Since the situation beca like this, it seed better to erase the wariness about firearms from Tychus and use the Colt Garrison B-09 as a trump card.
“Hmm, looking at the blade, it must be a dagger obtained through a contract with the Demon of Blazing Fire? Good, I'll use it as loot.”
Tychus sneered looking at the Fang of Blazing Fire.
“Do you think you can?”
“Yeah. Seems too easy?”
“Try it if you want.”
If the opponent uses Blazing Fire Magic, it wouldn't be a bad thod for to counter with Blazing Fire Magic as well, but there was one problem.
If I use Blazing Fire Magic against an opponent who is already offering himself as a price with Self-Combustion, the point was that I alone have to handle the backlash for that price entirely.
In other words, Self-Combustion was a ans that could perform a sort of defensive asure against Blazing Fire Magic by itself.
‘Tsk.’
The cards I could use slipped out of my hand rapidly.
To the extent that there were only a few cards left for to use now.
‘He’s coming.’
Tychus rushed towards holding the curved sword.
“Lion-Keter, do not deploy the barrier.”
[Yes? But......!]
“Concentrate Demonic energy on the dagger.”
I can't withstand Tychus's attacks with the barrier of Demonic energy anymore anyway.
My Demonic energy would only drain away in chunks.
Then, I have no choice but to block directly with the Fang of Blazing Fire wrapped in Demonic energy.
Swish!
Tychus's burning figure blurred once, then appeared in front of in an instant.
‘Above the right shoulder!’
I read the opponent's attack.
The problem is that I'm not sure if I can react or not.
Kaaaang!!!
As the Fang of Blazing Fire and the fla curved sword clashed, a strong shockwave was transmitted riding the blade.
“Keuk!”
“Ho-oh, you blocked it?”
My body, unable to withstand the shockwave entirely, was pushed back several steps.
Despite being assisted by the curse dwelling in Haima's Pendant and the physical ability enhancent by Demonic Energy Emission, and even gently raising the Destruction Dragon's Demonic energy dwelling in Haima's Pendant, the level difference was not sothing that could be easily overco.
The fundantal physical ability difference.
“Try blocking this too!”
Tychus rushed in again.
Kang!
Kakang!
I could block the first few strikes by succeeding in reading the moves, but my body couldn't follow the attacks after that.
Chwaak!
The attack I failed to block swept past my left arm.
A burning sensation like being burned by fire, no, actually being burned by fire, was transmitted riding my left arm.
[No!]
“Hmm, it was shallow.”
Thanks to barely pulling my body back with the Gale Step just before my left arm was cut off whole, the worst situation didn't happen.
But it was clear that the situation was still not good.
“That foot is really annoying. I have to tie my foot first.”
Tychus kindly told his plan.
It must an he has that much leeway in the situation.
Or he intends to aim sowhere else after saying that.
“Now, here I go.”
Tychus's body disappeared again.
It seed the authority of the Silver Veil returned fully, as only the afterimage of flas caused by Self-Combustion was visible.
“Behind?”
When a voice full of sneering was heard in my ear, I turned my body reflexively.
Chwaak!
The Blade Black Raven Cloak imbued with Demonic energy was swung, but there was no sensation felt.
“Whoa whoa. Dangerous.”
Tychus dodged my attack too leisurely and grinned.
“First, left foot.”
I admit.
This guy is seasoned in fighting.
Too much so.
Chwaak!
A hot sensation was felt on the left ankle.
“Keuk!”
I threw my body forward as I was.
The burning sensation felt from the left ankle seed like it would take away my reason, but the mind of the Postponer of Ruin did not collapse even now.
“Huh? I clearly cut the Achilles tendon but you're still moving? Ah, Demonic people were like that. I forgot for a mont. Anyway, tough bastards.”
Just as he said, Demonic energy took place in the spot of the damaged Achilles tendon and was substituting its function.
But Demonic energy is not omnipotent.
Tychus also seed to know that fact very well.
“Well, I just have to cut it off completely.”
Tychus grinned and gradually hid his appearance.
[......Are you okay?]
“Yes, I'm okay.”
I said so with effort, but honestly speaking, it wasn't a very good situation.
The cards I can use are really few now, and Tychus is still relaxed beyond asure.
Of course, if ti passes, he will burn himself up as the price for Self-Combustion, but there was no way I could endure until then.
‘No choice.’
I think it's still early, but it seems the ti to throw the winning move has co.
I grasped the Fang of Blazing Fire firmly and watched the flas of Self-Combustion rising from all directions.
‘Found you.’
Succeeding in reading Tychus's movent, I threw the Fang of Blazing Fire as I was.
My dagger throwing skill was once praised by Edric as quite excellent too.
“Declaration of summary contract.”
As the incantation was recited low, the flas rushing towards paused for a mont.
Because Tychus also knew the power a summary contract possesses well.
“Hmph! Petty tricks!”
Tychus struck away the Fang of Blazing Fire as if such an obvious trick was laughable and ca straight towards .
However, the incantation was never completed from my mouth.
Because I had no intention of doing so from the start.
[Activating ‘Weapon Summon(??)’.]
[‘Lv.1’ weapon is summoned.]
[Summoning weapon, ‘Colt Garrison B-09’.]
My last firearm which I saved and saved revealed its appearance, and the muzzle was aid at Tychus who reached my close range before I knew it.
“Damn it─”
I am certain.
He cannot dodge at this distance.
Taaaang─!
The Demonic Bullet that stretched out drawing a straight line pierced Tychus's chest at once.
“Keoheok!”
No matter that he is a player level 7 or higher, he could not block a Demonic Bullet (魔彈) with a bare body in a state where he lost his armor.
Because sothing like that was possible only at level 8 or higher which truly deviated from human common sense.
“Kkeu-euk! This damn Demonic bastard until the end......!”
Tychus ground his teeth vomiting blood, but I had no intention of leaving him in that state.
The consecutively pulled trigger fired towards Tychus, but Tychus, who was already conscious of the Colt Garrison B-09, rolled his body and dodged it.
As expected, unless piercing the blind spot of consciousness like a mont ago, hitting a blind bullet against a player of that level wasn't easy.
“......I admit. You were an enemy worth chewing up.”
Tychus's atmosphere was sowhat unusual.
From so mont, the flas of Self-Combustion wrapping Tychus's entire body had grown to a level incomparable to before.
This guy...... Did he offer himself completely as a price?
Feeling sothing, I quickly summoned 9x33mmR 357 Magnum standard rounds and tried to reload again, but Tychus moving was faster than that.
At the price of complete Self-Combustion, Tychus ca to possess movent that transcended limits.
Just like right now.
“Then, let's go together.”
Tychus's curved sword moved fast enough not to be seen with eyes and pierced my stomach.
“Keoheok!”
[No!]
Along with that, Blazing Fire started to rise riding the curved sword.
This guy...... He was trying to offer a sacrifice together for the price of the insufficient contract.
“Who do you think you are......!”
Even amidst the fading consciousness, I tried to escape this situation with effort, but it wasn't easy.
The mind of the Postponer of Ruin did not allow to faint, but during that ti I had to feel the pain intact.
“Geu-euk......!”
[N, no. No. No. No. No. No. No. No.......]
Lion-Keter's voice, fallen in despair, rang inside my head.
At that mont.
Sseusseusseu.......
Sticky energy, origin unknown, began to rise.
From the tips of my toes, soon to my entire body.
“......Mm?”
Tychus also frowned as if noticing the abnormality, but he didn't seem to have thoughts of backing down.
As if he really decided to die together in this spot.
And when that sticky energy touched , I could feel sothing.
