Chapter 233
Episode 233 [Encounter (3)]
Wow!
The huge snake’s body exploded. The coiled body was scattered to pieces.
Flesh and blood rained down. The earthen soldiers were dyed red.
It was a sudden thing. The awakened people and Yeongcheol watched the scene blankly.
There were things writhing among the pouring flesh.
They were the remains of tentacles with snake heads.
Before the startled awakeners could do anything, the sound of a machine gun rang out.
Ta-ta-ta-ta!
The writhing snakes exploded one after another.
Even after all the snakes stopped, the gunfire did not stop.
Ta-ta-ta-ta!
Shane’s machine gun was attacking the next target. The muzzle of the machine gun was pointed towards the underground passage where the group entered.
“Ahh!”
Vasily, who was deploying his shield, screamed. Because the bullets were passing around his body.
Puff puff!
The bullets that passed by Vasily shattered the monsters pounding the shield.
The shield, which was on the verge of breaking, began to return to its original state.
However, other monsters rushed in behind the fallen monsters.
“Everyone help!”
Rosalia shouted to everyone and ran down the aisle with her pet.
The awakened ones came to their senses and ran toward the passage, and Shane followed behind them.
Youngcheol, who was left alone, stood up hesitantly.
“Do I need help?”
But I didn’t think he needed to intervene.
A voice came from behind, agreeing with his thoughts.
“You won’t have to help.”
Yeongcheol suddenly turned his head.
A man stood in front of him.
It was a man with blood dripping from his head and blood-soaked flesh covering his entire body.
There was no visible blood anywhere on the body, but it was definitely not that man’s blood.
In his hand was a rather small mana stone.
It was a mana stone of the same type as the mana stone that Yeongcheol had broken.
“That’s…”
“Oh, that’s right, the Mana Stone. This is the only one left that wasn’t destroyed in the explosion.”
“Couldn’t it have been just one?”
Yeongcheol was raising his voice without realizing it.
“You had multiple mana stones. It was difficult to fight him because it was my first time seeing him.”
“So that’s why.”
Yeongcheol was then able to understand why he did not die even though he broke the mana stone.
He was then able to recall other facts.
“Then he must be at the level of a monarch…”
“Yes, that’s right. “He is at the level of a monarch.”
Youngcheol’s eyes widened at Kyunghoon’s words. He opened his mouth and looked at Kyung-hoon.
Kyunghoon looked back.
Fuaaaaaa!
Mana was gushing out from the corpse.
“congratulations. “Your grade will go up.”
The mana that filled the underground plaza began pouring out to people.
The most mana was poured into the awakened person who blocked the monsters coming through the passage, and to Gyeong-hoon, and to Yeong-cheol except for Gyeong-hoon.
“Ugh!”
Yeongcheol closed his eyes and trembled.
The body was being reorganized. The rating started to rise. It was full of pain, joy and excitement.
Kyung-hoon quenched his appetite as he watched Yeong-cheol shivering.
-Looks like it won’t work this time either.
Kyunghoon shook his head. Unfortunately, there was no sign of it rising yet. It seemed like it was too much for a monarch.
“hey! What should I do if I lose my mind? “Raising your grade is something to celebrate, but wake up!”
“Haha! “Everyone is dead!”
“You idiot! Wake! “It feels like I’ve moved up a grade and what if I get kicked and make a fuss?”
It seemed that there were people among the awakened who had risen in rank. His colleagues hurled insults at him under the guise of congratulations.
Perhaps thanks to the sudden change in atmosphere, the monsters that came in were quickly eliminated.
-It seems like the fight on the ground is over. All the monsters that came in waves 2 and 3 were scattered. Other units continue to join the ROK Army advance unit.
It seemed as if the monarch’s rule had been lifted and all the monsters had returned to their places.
Kyung-hoon said, putting his hand on the earphone.
“Shane, please clean up after yourself.”
The robot wearing a helmet looked back at Kyung-hoon. He responded by waving his hand.
After hearing Shane’s answer, Kyung-hoon crossed his arms and waited for Young-cheol to open his eyes. He
had a lot to ask.
***
Another world. Hudson, New York. Riverside.
With the collapsed Manhattan skyscrapers in the background, Isabel was standing. She was standing on the river bank, looking ahead. A
clear river was flowing in front of her. It was the Hudson River, which runs
through New York City. A large fish, no monster, moving leisurely on the river. There was
a fish monster with part of its back distorted by burns
. It was the Hudson River monster that had been burned by the Manhattan monarch’s self-destruction.
She raised her spear. She aimed the tip of the spear at the fish monster.
The distance was about 50 meters. If it were her enhanced characteristics, It was close enough.
The fish monster didn’t notice.
Isabelle looked at the monster with a conflicted expression.
“Wonk.”
Bailey, who had been still, barked.
When she lowered the window and turned around, she saw Bailey pounding on the floor with a distressed expression.
The dog didn’t seem to like what she was doing.
“Sorry.”
Isabelle apologized to Bailey.
“But I can’t help it because the traits are no longer strengthened at home.”
At her words, Bailey barked again.
“
I know it’s dangerous to try it alone. But the date you were supposed to come has passed. The world over there might be very busy and difficult. I can’t just keep waiting.”
Bailey stared at her.
Isabelle lowered her head.
“No, that’s not it. It’s not about that.”
She lowered her head and muttered softly,
“I want to show you what I’ve done before you two come.”
“I want to become an Isabel that you two will be proud of.”
The puppy sighed at her words.
Bailey patted Isabelle’s shoes.
Then, she walked to the side and stretched her body.
Quaaaaa.
Bailey’s body grew bigger. Wings grew.
Quang!
The little puppy had wings. It turned into a running lion.
After completing the transformation, Bailey sat down on the riverbank in a comfortable position.
Bailey gave permission.
Bailey, who had transformed, planned to watch Isabelle just in case.
Isabelle smiled at the sight of Bailey. She held her hands. I wiped my eyes and raised the spear again.
The door was no bigger than the small portal I showed Gyeonghoon last time. I had definitely said that we would go over together next time, but this was the only way I could disappoint Gyeonghoon. There was only one way now. The first new
characteristic
. Just like when I found it, I had to find a way to strengthen its characteristics through battle. It
was useless against small monsters.
I needed a strong, captain-level monster like the monster I fought in Korea.
Everything around here was cleared out, so all that was left was that fish monster.
Isabel She moved this characteristic. It was not a newly discovered characteristic, but an original characteristic. However, over the course of two years, that characteristic also strengthened tremendously. She took a step
forward. Her body became translucent.
Entered a half-dimension . That’s it. The world looked different in her eyes when she entered the half-dimension.
It was as if she was seeing the world through a thin membrane.
She walked in the dimension. There was water under her feet, but it didn’t matter.
She was separated from the original dimension. She was not bound by the physical laws of the dimension.
Temperature, pollution, energy,
and gravity.
The only thing she was bound by was the time she could stay in this half-dimension. And now that time had increased considerably.
After a while, she came out of the half-dimension. .
Her feet were not stepping on the river, but on the fish monster’s back.
Fuaaaa!
When she entered the original dimension again, the fish monster noticed. In fact, there was no way it wouldn’t have noticed if a human was standing on its back. The
fish monster He was trying to sink down by flailing his body.
He seemed to have become more scared because of the big explosion last time.
I couldn’t let it escape.
She pointed the window down. And the newly acquired characteristics were manifested on the tip of the spear.
Wooooow.
The black smoke formed a line and spread out in all directions.
The space split apart and the monster’s body was cut apart.
Kyaaaaa!
The monster screamed.
“Not yet!”
The dimension split and the characteristics exploded, but Isabelle left the characteristics as they were. She
had to develop them even more.
Chop! Spear!
The dimensional rift began to split not only the monster, but also the river.
POP!
Blood spurted out on her face as well. A crack passed her face.
The spear began to tremble. No, her arms were shaking. It looked
dangerous. Bailey, who was sitting on the riverbank, jumped up and spread her wings.
But Bailey did not fly, but looked back.
That was then.
The cracks that were spreading in all directions began to change.
Chuaaaaa!
The cracks dried up and the river rose. The monster was torn apart.
The cracks gathered little by little. Her collar was cut and the wounds increased.
But Isabel did not stop.
Now . The crack no longer appeared as a line.
A black hole appeared above the river where blood and chunks of meat were spreading.
Woo-woo-woo.
A portal appeared.
A door large enough for a person to enter. A person
was stepping on a large chunk of meat. Isabelle carefully placed her hand on the portal.
Luckily, it didn’t take much concentration to keep the portal open. It was a step up.
The hole wasn’t small. There was a sharp crack spinning around it, but there was no need to worry about it cutting any more.
The palm was overlapped over the black hole. Isabelle carefully pushed her hand
in. The arm was pushed in gently. There was no roughness.
The arm was locked from the wrist to the wrist and up to the shoulder. A
surprised Isabelle tried to pull her arm out , but
she squirmed. !
Rather, the hole sucked her in.
Woe!
It was an instant.
She was in an outer space full of starlight.
No, it wasn’t starlight or outer space.
I had seen it before when I went to Korea. It was a space between dimensions.
Space and space . A hidden world that connects dimensions.
All of those stars were doors to other worlds and spaces.
She had come in here on her own. It was a
situation where she should have been impressed, but now she was engulfed in fear.
‘How does it move? How do I get through the door?’ let’s go!’
She had heard an explanation from Kyung-hoon.
It was explained that all you had to do was draw a line toward the door you wanted to go to and then move along that line.
But she couldn’t figure out how to make the line. And she couldn’t even tell what kind of door those many starlights were.
Moreover, she couldn’t go back to the door she came out of.
The door was behind her, but her body was only slowly moving forward. Her
mana was decreasing. If this continued, the portal she opened would also close.
‘Are you really going to just wander like this? No!’
I wanted to scream, but no words came out.
‘No! No! We have to go back! Move!’
Time passed by more and more, and I had no idea how much time had passed. Mana is starting to show its end.
Fear gradually began to overwhelm her mind. It was difficult to breathe.
She opened her mouth and began to scream silently. Chin
at that moment
.
An arm wrapped around her neck.
A face appeared next to her.
A black-haired man. It was Kyung-hoon’s face.
Isabelle stared at Kyung-hoon with her mouth open.
Kyung-hoon looked at her with a scolding face, then grabbed her and moved her back.
Shuuuk.
The body that had been so motionless was gently pushed away as Kyung-hoon dragged it.
Starlight pushed away and the door approached.
The two people came out of the portal.
with a plop!
Outside the portal was a river. The two people fell into the river.
Bailey, who saw the two people falling into the water, flapped his wings and flew over.
The surroundings were no different from when I entered.
Inside, it seemed like a long time had passed, but hardly any time had passed.
As soon as the two people got out, the dimension door disappeared.
Bailey grabbed the two and flew into the sky.
