. Dreamy Paradise Lost (3)

kukukuku!

A black haze rose along T-Bone's body.

Mana equipped with an older brother.

The intimidation emanating from the top-class Death Knight was completely different.

The insects faltered and retreated.

After all, the 'Judgment of Anubis' that was completely activated without paying attention to the Egyptians can only be called a fraud.

It was because I could feel just how strong T-bone is now just with mana transmitted through the skin.

Please give me orders. Master.

Smash the white jade.

All right.

As soon as the order was issued, the new T-bone disappeared.

ね!

Feeling a sense of crisis, Tangrasil gathered a bunch of mana.

A green mist spewed out of the white jade at the top of the white tree.

It was a nerve substance that could paralyze the nervous system and focus solely on killing the enemies in front of it.

Kie!

Keeek!

Immediately, tree trunks and insects rushed in like swarms of bees.

[T-Bone activates his unique ability 'False Oath'!]

A unique ability that only a few of the Death Knights can manifest, 'wrong oath'.

The sword and shield were all dyed black.

What followed was a breakthrough as if the storm had been moved as it was.

KwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwa!

When T-Bone swung his sword, Hercules beetle split in half in one blow.

Kieek!

A black sand centipede and a giant beetle besides it.

Keeek!

Whatever it touched, T-Bone's sword couldn't stand the Aura blade.

The corpses of the worms that were cut into fragments were lying on the floor.

A road made in an instant.

The branches of Tangrasil trembled.

Oh, Oggra-kun...! What the hell is Ogra-kun doing! Come right now. Come here and protect me right now!

Tangrasil, feeling life-threatening, let out a long, long roar.

He asked the giants in the fortress for help.

OK.

Part of the barrier opened, revealing the connection point between Paradise Lost and the outside world.

[The 12-star barrier is dismantled!]

Finally, there was a hole in the iron wall.

'It's going to be a race against time in the future.'

Jinhyuk's eyes narrowed.

Until now, if the battle with Tangrasil in Paradise Lost was the main stage.

From now on, even the attacks of the giants must be taken into account.

'I asked for help, so it will take at least 10 minutes to get here.'

10 minutes. 10 minutes... .

That's enough.

T-Bone!

Jinhyuk raised his voice.

Realizing what that call meant, T-Bone immediately activated a new skill.

[T-Bone summons 'Ghost Warhorse'!]

A horse appeared with its whole body covered in translucent armor.

Hey hey!

T-Bone mounted a green ghost steed, spurring the pace.

It was difficult to block in the first place, but when the acceleration and shock amount due to the ghost warhorse were added, it was impossible to even stand in front of it.

Now it's right in front of you.

There were only a few steps left until the sword smashed the white jade.

But right then.

creepy

A cool sensation ran across Jinhyuk's back.

there is something

It wasn't Tangrasil, but it felt like someone was staring at me from the side.

...!

My body reacted earlier than I thought.

A skewer made of celestial poison flew to the spot where his gaze was directed.

kwaang!

However, the thorn did not penetrate the target.

Instead, it was offset by something and crumbled as it was.

That guy must be

How the hell...

He's a very quick-tempered person.

no doubt

At the edge of Paradise Lost stood Ograkun, the king of giants.

master!

A strange thing happened to the T-bone side as well.

Five giants intervened between Tangrasil and T-Bone.

Don't sell your eyes. Undead.

Your opponent is us!

The black ax and clubs took T-Bone's sword.

Weapons made to withstand Aura, just like those seen in the imperial capital.

The number is twelve in total.

Given the timing and location of their appearance, it is no coincidence that they intervened here.

'Did you dig a trap?'

Jinhyuk quickly activated the 'Eyes of Gluttony'.

[Oggra-kun]

Race: Giant

Age: 133

Level: 80

Strength 114 Dexterity 48 Stamina 75 mana 7

Unique Ability: Berserker

skill: Lv15 'The Lord's Command', Lv14 'Weapon Lightening', Lv14 'Weapon Master', Lv14 'Perseverance', Lv13 'Strategy'

Characteristics: Ograkun is relatively intelligent even among the giants, and is a fine lord due to his numerous battle experiences. Since he is a rational personality who can perfectly evaluate the gains and losses of understanding, if he understands that well, he may be able to avoid a fight unexpectedly.

[Copy Conditions: Giants revere strength and physical beauty. While undressing as much as possible, hit the opponent with only 'strength'. (The area of clothing and the increase in strength are inversely proportional.) If you do that, you can copy one of Ograkun's unique abilities and skills. It will be possible.]

Ograkun, king of giants.

Standing about 4 meters tall, this giant was too shabby for a giant who revered its size.

In fact, the giant that Jinhyuk lured to enter this fortress also reached the 7m level.

Even so, Ograkun subdued countless giants and reigned supreme... .

It was because he had such an overwhelming ability.

Ugh... .

Ograkun lightly lifted the sword that was resting on his shoulder.

A sword approaching his height drew an arc gently.

You look like you don't understand why I'm already here.

It's been less than a minute since Tangrasil asked for help.

Yeah. If it was normal, the white jade would be broken and the tangrasil would also have disappeared. The battle would have ended in your victory.

However.

Since the scouts were missing, we had already predicted that the intruder would be aiming for Paradise Lost. Of course, we didn't expect that the intruder would be strong enough to weaken the barrier.

"This one I ate one shot well. But would it be okay? If your guy comes here with the main force. The rest of the guys won't be able to stop the joint attack of the Empire and the Moorim, right?"

The departure of the core power could soon lead to the collapse of the whole.

Better go back before it's too late.

Unless you want to lose all of the fort.

However.

There was still no sign of agitation on Ogra Kun's face.

Rather, he casually scratched the ball.

The wall has already been abandoned. Perhaps, in a little while, some of the troops sent from both sides of the Empire and Moorim will reach here.

I... is it your mind? Did you intentionally give up the wall?

Such nonsense.

What crazy commander would give up his only advantage?

Jinhyuk frowned at the incomprehensible behavior.

What else can't be done? If we weaken the boundary of the fortress by ourselves, the Empire and the Moorim side will finally decide that it is possible to attack the fortress. That is the sea I want.

The two factions, who were at odds with each other, make the achievement of their goal a reality.

As the thought continued to that point, something flashed through Jinhyuk's mind.

"Are you going to make them fight for control of this place?"

The first priority is to attack the fortress.

And the second priority is which side has the citadel.

Of course, there is no reason for both of them to give up their base, so it must be a definite fact that each will turn their swords to each other.

That is exactly what Ograkun was aiming for.

Considering that the number of troops in the main unit that came here is smaller than expected, it seems that a separate unit has also been prepared. They must be aiming for supply with other races dissatisfied with the Empire or Moorim.

Huh? Did you even notice that?

A gleam passed through Ogra-kun's eyes.

No matter how many separate units there are, it is not enough to annihilate the enemy's main force. In order to achieve a perfect victory, the enemy's rear ... must be aimed at replenishment if possible.

Hmm. If you had led one of the two factions, it would have been a much more interesting fight.

Well. If I were the commander-in-chief, would this place have already turned into a sea of fire?

It could have been. But, this time, it's like I've been beaten by my hand.

Yes.

At first glance, this seems like a very neat strategy.

The plan is to protect Paradise Lost and at the same time cut off the supply route by making the two factions vigilant.

It is a structure in which there is no choice but to win by itself even if you are still in the fortress.

But that's it.

"Do you know that your plan can only be realized if supported by one major premise?"

What premise are you talking about?

The premise that only you and the troops here should protect Tangrasil. If that doesn't work, everything will be in vain.

Haha. So. I may not be able to stop you alone... Is this what you want to say?

A gust of wind flowed from Ogra-kun's mouth.

It is natural to say that it is not funny.

It was true that the Death Knight and Ghost Steed, who had been rampaging a while ago, were a threat.

That's the story when it lasted forever.

After the time limit has passed, T-Bone has already lost his dignity as a Death Knight.

Jinhyuk was the only one left.

If it's not easy to lead a corps, what can you do with just one person?

However.

There was one thing Ograkun didn't know.

Rather than gathering the power of one force.

The odds are good enough. As long as the barrier is dismantled, I won't have to worry about losing mana anymore.

The fact that one person can have a greater influence.

[Lv5 'Claws that cover the moon' appear!]

A strong energy reminiscent of the claws of beasts rose from Jinhyuk's left hand.

[The unique ability 'Colossus Strike' is activated!]

In his right hand, the spirit of the giants resided.

There.

When the 'white wild beast' obtained from 'Caracal' of the Frost Blades tribe was overlaid, indescribable heat surged.

dreaming

Ograkun's eyebrows curve backwards.

That power...

opponent is human.

Compared to giants, they are small creatures that are not even worth comparing.

It means that they are so weak that they can even pluck out the spinal cord with a single blow.

Yet... what the hell this oppression.

As if facing Taesan.

O'Grakun's instincts began to send the highest warning.

Dangerous.

If you don't fight with all your might... .

Rather, it could be this one.

'It won't be easy.'

Ograkun grabbed the sword with both hands.

Still, with this kind of strength, I'll be able to deal with it somehow.

This is because he also had the unique ability 'Berserker' to express the will of a berserker.

But, the moment you see the next scene.

Ugh !

Ograkun had to realize that all assumptions about the match were meaningless.

fusion.

It is a unique ability that allows you to reach a higher level by collecting the skills of the copied opponent.

Jinhyuk's both hands combined the energy into one.

Then at that very moment.

[The unique ability 'Colossus Strike', the skill 'Claws that cover the moon', and the unique ability 'White Beast' are fused!]

Did I tell you to simply take a picture and press it with force?

If so, let me do it.

The condition that the three abilities obtained from the monsters must be fused, and that fusion is possible only when suitable 'copy conditions' are found at the same time.

As it required extreme difficulty, the result was guaranteed.

[You have succeeded in obtaining the right arm of the giant 'Tombgrave'!]

[The copied unique ability is stored in 'Memory of the World'.]

A dazzling brilliance flickered, Paradise Lost swallowed up by a great light.

huuuuuuuuuoooooooooooooooooo

and after a while.

When my sight came back... .

Jinhyuk's arm had changed.

No, it wasn't just the appearance that changed.
