CH 368

gray forest (1)

Puppupuck!

kwaaang!

"Kie-ee!"

"Keeek!"

As the faintly shining swords and shields moved erratically, the limbs of the shattered insects scattered in all directions.

A battle that has been going on for nearly 30 minutes.

However, the endlessly flocking insects showed no sign of stopping.

"Aww! Damn left. Look left!" Wrong now. It's all wrong!"

getting more and more confused

Is it the limit to stand with your back to the tree?

It was not easy for the other players to keep their formation properly due to the lack of stamina and mana.

The only hope left now is Teresa.

[Theresa activates Lv13 'Battle Song'!]

[Theresa activates Lv14 'Last Holy Name'!]

Attack power, defense power, and even recovery ability.

A handful of remaining mana were optimized and moved.

In addition, when the 'Last Holy Name' was activated, an environment was prepared where you could immerse yourself in battle until the moment of death.

With this, everything is ready.

shoot ah... .

A white cross that came down from heaven.

There.

"going."

Teresa began her final struggle.

kwaang!

Deflect the claws flying from the side with the shield.

Whoops!

Immediately, aim at the weak skin and insert the sword.

"Kie-ee!"

"Keeek!"

A situation where even one mistake can lead to death.

Everything has to be perfect in order to last even one second longer.

Teresa slaughtered more than ten earwigs in an instant.

And the large bugs flew towards the passageway.

fault!

Fast. lightly.

A golden sword crossed the tree trunk.

kuung!

The passage was blocked as logs the size of a house were cut down.

"Oh oh oh! To block the most troublesome place, there are only two places they can come from this."

"Okay, Teresa! It's done. Now it's done!"

"The Saint of Amsterdam is with us!"

The players burst into cheers.

Thanks to Teresa working harder than expected, she was making a way out from the back, little by little. If you only reach the valley about 1km away, even the insects will not be able to attack easily.

Little by little, hope began to appear in this hellish situation.

But, right then.

"Koooooooh!"

A scream resounded as if the gray forest was about to leave.

kuung!

Trees fell left and right.

"Great, it's a large species!"

something is coming

It's also incredibly fast.

And after a while, what appeared in the forest was a disaster that took away all hope.

"Unbelievable ."

Teresa dropped her sword straight down.

It was because the enemy that appeared before my eyes was so absurd.

Only about 8m high.

It is a teratoma with 12 claws and 3 heads.

But what was more terrifying than the appearance was the mana flowing from the monster's body.

Chi profit!

The poisonous poison burns the surrounding grass and trees black.

It is so venomous that even the same insects can avoid it.

[[King of Yeoldokchung(熱毒蟲王)]

'Crayberatis' has activated the special field skill 'Region Declaration'!]

The king of insects that rules the gray forest.

And the green confrontation system created by that foe enzyme devoured the whole area.

"Keep... Kek. Kek."

"Sue, I can't breathe..."

"You have to get out of here right now."

The players covered their throats and snorted.

As soon as he took a breath, a warm energy permeated deep into his lungs.

"Even when such a great wide-area magic is activated there is no change in the wavelength of mana."

I can't even measure how high the basic mana amount is.

"Is it because of this monster that the Church also delayed the pursuit?"

Teresa swallowed dry saliva.

right then

"Kee-e-e-e!"

Cray Veratis swung her claws.

It's fast paced for its hefty size.

The tongs that dug into the side in an instant slammed into one tanker's body.

kwaduduk!

"Aww!"

The entire shield and armor collapsed, and blood was spurted out.

"Father, fast!"

"Damn! It'll attract attention, so let's spread each other out! Scatter and bounce!"

A magic player double casts fire magic and light attribute magic.

Pugh!

With a dazzling flash of light, his vision turned white.

But.

It was a huge mistake to think that it had created a gap.

Insects' senses are not just specialized in sight.

touch, smell and hearing.

That is, everything for hunting was optimized.

"Eat... I'll clean it up. Humans."

Thick saliva fell from the wide open mouth.

"Hahaha... If that's the case, you're just... dying... Ah."

Resignation beyond despair.

Dark death fell over his face.

That's it.

puff puff puff!

The torn pieces of meat were scattered all over the place.

"Richard!"

"Damn it. If there's no defense, no escape, no disturbance, what the hell am I supposed to do!"

"ね! If at least my condition was normal..."

If so,

If only the entire raid group could play their role.

It wouldn't have collapsed like this.

However, hopes filled with families are only hopes to the last. The reality is cruel law.

"Kee-e-e-e!"

"Aaaaah"

A short-haired woman was caught trying to get out of the blind spot quickly.

"Ahhhhhh!"

A class A assassination series with short-distance space movement ability.

Despite the unique fast movement speed and stealth ability, he could not escape the siege.

"No. Don't eat it. Grab it and eat it..."

hard! kwaduk!

mumble.

It takes less than 10 seconds to eat a person.

And if it goes on like this, it will all disappear into his stomach.

'You have to buy time for everyone to escape. Even if I fall.'

Teresa resisted the poison and raised her divine power.

huuuuuoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"ね!"

regurgitating mana.

In addition to detoxifying the poison, the whole body became overloaded due to the attention of the party.

My consciousness tried to block all senses at once because of the pain that exceeded the limit.

still.

'You must not give up here. I can't.'

Teresa managed to catch her fading consciousness.

- Rather, why don't you hand over your personality to me? Then it would be much more worthwhile.

"No... no. I won't depend on you."

- Huh. Our Sundingi is a bit stubborn. Anyway, that blunt idiot won't look at you, right? I'd rather leave it to me and be comfortable. That's the only way for you and me, for everyone.

The devil's sweet temptation digging into his ear.

If we 'fall', we may be able to get out of the current crisis.

But.

Theresa refused to listen to the voice of the other person.

' You'll hate it.'

A person who keeps going.

The person I first met at the ruins of the tower and who has been with me ever since.

I didn't want to show him how his personality was slowly being eroded by darkness and changing.

If you abuse corruption whenever you need it, you will eventually lose your self completely.

Theresa raised her shield at an angle.

And in line with the flying claws.

bang!

The shock spilled to the side.

at the same time.

fault!

I started running with my center of gravity forward.

Numerous claws flew, but Teresa responded calmly.

Kaga!

Using the bevel of the sword, it traverses the beat and steals the opponent's timing.

like that.

'done.'

Teresa digs deep into the skinned arms.

Now, all you need to do is break through the inside with a sword full of divine power.

It was a huge mistake to think so.

Boo woo woo!

Something flashed in front of Teresa's face.

"...!?"

To be honest, it was pure luck, not skill, that I just avoided the attack.

'paper Nor is it.'

He didn't even know how he attacked.

You used that as a weapon just by looking at its furiously moving tail... just think that

"Kee-e-e-e!"

Like a lotus sword.

Attacks that made it impossible to read the trajectory came one after another.

I couldn't avoid it this time.

kwaang!

"Aww!"

with great shock. Teresa's body soared high into the air.

The body, which had flown several meters, barely stopped after being hit by a large log.

Throb! Throb!

Teresa staggered up from among the rubble.

'The arm... It's broken.'

If it's a miracle that you managed to block it, it's a miracle.

If it's not a clean fracture, but the bone powder crumbling into pieces, it's a problem.

No matter how much 'Blessing of the Stars' recovers, it will take some time.

of course.

kuung!

"Kee-e-e-e!"

The opponent seemed unwilling to give it a chance.

It's over.

The faces of everyone who watched were stained with despair.

Teresa also saw the giant insect approaching, and bit her molars as if resigning.

It is useless to say that 'Corruption' is activated now.

It was because the poison had already penetrated through the lungs and into the heart.

Boo Woong!

claws fly

A huge shadow fell over his face.

"Ah ."

A sad moan escaped Teresa's mouth.

But at that very moment.

kwaaang!

The claws that were tearing everything apart were blocked by something.

"You're trying to save people even in this situation, it's really Teresa-san."

Jinhyuk was standing in front of Teresa with a dagger.

"Jinhyuk Mr.?"

"Now I'll take over. Please rest easy."

The owner of the gray forest and the king of insects.

Those were the words to describe Kreiberatis.

Even among the fiercest forces on the 20th floor, it is you who confidently dominates the vast area of the floor.

Those who invade the realm of the king are only prey.

but

' What do you mean? What about this petty creature?'

The black-haired human in front of him could not see what the prey should do.

or die of fear.

or run away

Such actions, such as clumsily rebelling or not.

But, it doesn't matter.

I'll just have to give a cheeky bastard a death worthy of it.

kuung!

Huge claws crossed across.

As he has done so far, in order to tear his prey into pieces.

And that moment.

[Unique ability .]

The surroundings were dyed black.

[ ] 'Sword Grave' will bloom.]

Everything was dyed black.

KwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwa!

What followed was a black crescent moon that covered the sky in the forest.

Black as obsidian

That was the impression of the king of insects who saw the crescent moon.

"Kee-e-e-e!"

A long burst of screams.

The clipped claws of Kraberatis rotated round and round in the air.

"I've been watching the moon on bugs, haven't I lost a leg?"

"Kie-e-e... you dare, do you know who I am and attack you?"

"What is a beetle eating just a small forest?"

"Wow, a king worm?"

"Yeah. I don't know the difference between you and cockroaches in my eyes? It's a little big, so I can't kill it... is that the difference?"

Jinhyuk died.

"I'll kill you... I'll throw it away!"

In the three jaws, different mana were aggregated.

kukukuku!

poison and fire. And lightning and wind.

A whopping 4 attributes of breath unfolded in one place.
