Chapter 318
As soon as I opened my eyes, I stood up.
The front was cloudy and the nose smelled acrid.
And outside the window was exceptionally noisy.
“Those on the street will be considered traitors. Everyone, get inside the building!”
A daunting cry erupted from everywhere.
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Occasionally there were screams and a distant ‘Quaaaaang!’ Every time the roaring sound came out, a slight vibration was transmitted through the bed.
If so, what kind of situation is this?
Information is needed.
Therefore…….
trudged trudge.
I forcibly moved my weak body and headed for the window. The moment I opened the window, black smoke rushed in and a dry cough came out.
“Collock Coke.”
While coughing, I glanced out the window.
Soldiers roamed the smoky streets, controlling citizens.
And…
‘It’s a real fire.’
A city engulfed in fire came into view in the distance.
It was the eastern region, which was also the home of Orculis.
It’s quite a distance from the current location, but as befits an underground city with poor ventilation, a big fire broke out and the whole city was filled with smoke…
Quaang! Kwaaang-!
Looking at the artificial roaring sounds intermittently, it seems that it is not a simple fire just by looking at the cancer.
“I’ll turn… what the hell is the situation.”
He pressed his throbbing head with his hand.
It feels like your head is spinning several times slower than usual. Perhaps it was the remnants of the poison Amelia fed me.
‘Yes, I ate poison…….’
I suddenly came to my senses, and the things that happened before I lost consciousness came to my mind like a panorama.
‘What is he thinking? Where did he disappear to now?’
I don’t know.
But the more I did, the more I focused on one.
It was the same as the day I first woke up in this body.
Putting everything aside, what am I supposed to do right now?
The answer came quickly.
“a drawer.”
Amelia told me to open the drawer.
Perhaps there is an explanation for this situation.
I closed the window and headed to the side of the bed.
Kindly, only a few lines of notes were left in the drawer of the nightstand, which was already open.
“Ha…….”
The note started with a short apology saying that he was sorry.
It didn’t take me long to read the whole thing, and as soon as I finished, I tore the note to shreds.
Even then, he wasn’t angry.
‘I never thought D-Day was today.’
Amelia cheated on me.
It wasn’t written on the note, but the reason was obvious.
The purpose must have been to prevent me from further intervening in the past. Then it must have been a judgment that the future might change.
‘Hey, I didn’t expect this guy to be a character who behaves unexpectedly like this…’
The back of his head tingled, but he cleared his throat and checked the time.
[04:31]
Four-thirty a.m.
It was a little past 10pm when I had a drink with Amelia, so I had been asleep for about six hours.
‘Well, then what should I do…’
I closed my eyes for a moment and organized my thoughts.
A note left by Amelia said that she would do the rest alone, so when she wakes up, she says to go find the record fragment stone.
Certainly, looking at the state of the city, it would not be difficult to infiltrate the castle.
But…
‘You’re laughing. Then what is it that he will stay here alone?’
I also don’t like this method.
However, on the contrary to such feelings, I have these thoughts.
What if I really do nothing?
Will the future change in any way?
“…Okay, let’s get out for now.”
I ended my worries there.
And quickly put on the equipment.
Time is running out, so I decided that it was enough to think about the rest while moving.
profit.
I hurried to the lord’s castle.
***
Acrid smoke.
And I passed between soldiers who were busy controlling the civilians on the street and soon arrived at Yeongju Castle.
However, the castle gate, which was already firmly closed, could not be opened even with the hand of the castle lord’s side.
“The lord of the castle gave instructions not to let anyone in. And since the summoning order was given in the first place, when did you come now?”
“…was sleeping.”
“Then move to the eastern region now. After checking, the clan you belong to has already gone on a campaign a long time ago.”
Ha bother.
“Okay. Good job.”
Without regret, I turned my back and left the gate.
Just because the door is closed doesn’t mean there’s no way to get in.
Barbarians do not ask for permission.
‘It’s also smoked, so you won’t be able to see it.’
After moving along the wall for a while, I confirmed that there was no one around, so I jumped high and jumped over the wall.
Unfortunately, there were people right there.
“Who are you!”
A soldier terrified to see me fall from the sky while on patrol.
Poo-!
Before it gets noisy, I hurriedly quieted it down and ran toward the inner sanctuary.
Just as Amelia had said that on the day of execution, the house would be no different from an empty house, there were no threatening people in the castle.
Just the soldiers patrolling.
Perhaps by now, the kernels are fighting the forces of the Orculis-occupied eastern region.
“Enemies!”
Poo-!
“The enemy has invaded!”
Poo-!
Thanks to this, I quickly skipped this section.
However, the problem was resistance.
Kwaaang-!
The moment I broke down the inner door and entered the first floor alone, explorers with ferocious expressions surrounded me.
‘Yes, no matter how empty the house is, this much is left, right?’
Elite troops awarded the title of knight.
Thanks to having been in and out of the lord’s castle countless times over the past few months, I’ve known some of them.
“……Why are you here when you go to Iron Mask? Not in the eastern area where the battle takes place?”
“Ah, I have something to talk about with the lord.”
“I never thought you were Orculis’ helper.”
As if he had been betrayed by a colleague he trusted, he glared at me with eyes full of anger.
I didn’t feel any remorse.
Not only am I not an assistant to Orculis…
I’ve never thought of these guys as companions in the first place.
“Come on, let’s go.”
“I don’t know how you dared to crawl all the way here alone, but this place is your—”
Some say 5 stars at most.
I keep talking because I’m going to jump on it.
If you don’t come, I will go.
Quaang-!
Without wasting time with meaningless conversations, I immediately turned on [Enlarge] and [Leaped] into the middle of their formation.
And…
“Behel—LAAAAAAA!!”
Thanks to [Giantization], the hammer, which was already a monstrous size, was made about three times bigger with the combination of [Transcendence] and [Swing]—
whoops!
Spinning around like a top, he swung the hammer.
Name Whirlwind.
It was taken from the game I liked the most before I fell in love with [Dungeon and Stone]…….
Its feature is that you can enjoy the cool hitting feeling and sound while the body is rotating.
Just like this.
Kwa-kwa-kwaa-!
The glass bodies exploded like balloons the moment they were hit by the hammer, and some with hard bodies flew right into the wall.
It was a foreseeable result.
The hammer I’m holding right now isn’t a normal weapon.
‘Obviously, I was raised as a tanker, but somehow it’s now a setting that deals better than tanks.’
No.87 Crawl’s Demon Grinder.
Double number item with 500% damage increase option when using blunt skills.
To put it simply, just holding this weapon increases the power of [Swing], a rank 3 skill, by 5 times.
But there’s no way there’s a guy who can withstand this.
Oh, of course, there is no point in avoiding it.
“What the hell is this……”
As soon as I swung the hammer, the people who had been flat on the floor to avoid anger looked up at me with stunned faces.
Some of them came to their senses and fought back.
arrow.
fire.
Lightning.
ax.
I smiled as I checked their weapons.
‘Why is there no one who uses a sword?’
That’s the funny thing about Noark.
Just because you’re a knight doesn’t mean you know how to use an aura.
A real knight who has only been recognized for his loyalty and has only been given a title, but who can even write Auras, is on the level of one in a hundred.
‘As expected, all those kids were taken to the front.’
After that, the battle unfolded in such a way that each player manually struck down the hammer.
Even the warriors who covered their entire bodies with heavy armor immediately lost their senses and lay down on the floor after activating the 50% armor penetration option with ‘Shoot Down’.
Had it been like that for 5 minutes?
The battle ended with the few remaining fleeing.
I didn’t bother to catch it, and I skipped routing.
Not only did I not have time for that……
In the first place, I piled up the loot in the subspace ring one after another for several months, and now there is no vacancy.
‘……Ha, I have to take this hammer back somehow.’
While thinking about that, I hurriedly resumed my movement.
The destination was not the upper floor where the lord’s study or office was located, but the underground shelter that Amelia had told her about.
Tada da dot.
I barely managed to find the stairs leading down to the basement, and I stopped walking.
It was because someone was coming up from below.
“I was wondering what the fuss was up there…”
Coincidentally, it was someone I’d met once before.
A knight who came to recruit us under the direction of the lord.
That’s why the name is…….
“Why are you here when you’re iron?”
Rick Omanus.
He looked at me and drew his sword.
***
Accidentally got the wrong way.
I didn’t even have time to make excuses like that.
Whoo-!
He was so quick to judge that when he saw me, he infused his sword with an aura, ready to go into battle at any moment.
It was then that I tried to talk.
“Answer me, Iron Mask. The reason you are here. And furthermore, everything about how you knew about this place.”
To answer the question, Amelia told me.
No one may know about the underground refuge now, but in the future they won’t.
“I won’t answer this is this?”
At those words, my heart started beating fast.
Pounding –
‘Knight’ is no different from a counter to tanks.
Tankers tend to be slow instead of strong, but Aura ignores defense. Even tanks have low damage, making it difficult to inflict damage on knights.
You can tell just by looking at the battle with the knight-turned-plunderer with the nickname ‘Snake Knight’ that he met in the Crystal Cave.
Arms cut off like tofu.
All I did was use the gap to rush in and cling to it like a cicada.
The key to victory was Raven’s magic.
pounding-!
Even now, the situation is completely different from then.
One-on-one composition with no peers.
I haven’t even touched the setting for Aura yet.
But…
Throbbing-!
The heartbeat cycle shortens, and the hand holding the weapon gains strength.
It was not a physical change caused by fear.
It’s only natural to feel this much tension before a battle.
“So you’re not going to answer that?”
“…….”
“First cut off the arm.”
Soon after, Rick Omanus took the flag-bearing ceremony.
I answered.
“Try it if you can.”
Okay, it’s time to catch up on articles.
