- Volume 3 Episode 20

That was then.

"It was hard. Now it's my turn, let's finish it! Stand up!"

A clear voice was heard, and as Kim Si-on was conducting, Jung Daesik knew what Yoo Tae-hoon, who had been quiet, was going to do.

"Oh oh oh oh!"

"Oooh!"

Surprisingly, the nearby Crazy Buffalo corpses that had been shriveled up rose again.

However, their eyes were turned white, and they looked distinctly different from the other crazy buffaloes running along the herd.

As most of the Crazy Buffalo passed by at the time, only the corpse of numerous Crazy Buffalo and one Grand Mall remained.

Thanks to this, the resurrected Crazy Buffaloes could be seen moving under the direction of Tae-Hoon Yoo.

'That's the power of a Necromancer!'

Necromancers, also known as corpse controllers, could literally manipulate the corpses of nearby monsters as if they were their own limbs.

Of course, the range of effect and the duration of the effect differed greatly depending on the mana value or grade, but it was undoubtedly an amazing ability.

The stronger the monster defeated, the more the Necromancer's ability shines.

In that regard, the Crazy Buffalo, which had been a problem until recently, became an excellent force for the Foreign Legion.

"Oooh!"

Crazy buffaloes roared and surrounded the Grand Mall following Yoo Tae-hoon's gestures.

They rushed in and struck the grand mall's huge body with their horns and trampled them with their hooves.

Grand Malle was furious and pounded the Crazy Buffalos with their paws and threw them around with their tentacles, but with an overwhelming difference in his head count.

Taking advantage of that gap, an instruction to make a deadly deal fell, and the Foreign Legion mobilized all its offensive power.

"flak!"

While Grand Mall was fighting the Crazy Buffalo, Muwon Park changed his weapon again.

His double-edged ax became an anti-aircraft gun this time, and Park Mu-won immediately pointed his gun at the Grand Mall.

However, given the scale, it seemed that it would take some time to load the magic bullet.

While Kim Si-on and Heo Mi-rae covered him, So Kang-doo and Jung Daesik spent time with Yoo Tae-hoon.

Tae-Hoon Yoo completely surrounded the Grand Mall with Crazy Buffaloes to prevent them from moving.

In the meantime, So Kang-doo and Jung Daesik concentrated their attacks with the fingertips that Park Mu-won attacked in order to even cut off the limp left hand.

First, Jung Daesik fired several freezing bullets with his magic-converting automatic rifle to freeze his wrists.

Taking advantage of the slow movement of his frozen left hand, Sogangdu fired a meteor pendulum.

"Heavy Meteor!"

As he loaded his magical energy onto the flying meteor, it shone like a real falling meteor.

So Jiangdu's weapon handling skills were exquisite, and it hit the frozen left wrist of the Grand Mall.

Then, with a crackling sound, my left hand was completely amputated.

"done!"

While Sogangdu shouted for joy, the loading of the anti-aircraft guns ended.

Park Mu-won poured out all of his magical energy at once and fired an anti-aircraft gun.Qaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

A huge magic bullet flew and was separated from the air.

At the same time, Mirae Heo, who came earlier, applied a debuff to Grand Mall.

"Weak defense."

The six-stranded magic bullets hit Grand Mall's head, both sides of its chest, snout and belly directly.

Quazy!

The skin of the Grand Mall ripped open and its huge body tore apart.

Then the Grand Mall roared and made his last move.

"Kyahaaaa!"

The Grand Mall, which stretched his body like a spring again, poured down.

Blood and body fluids, flesh and unknown internal organs poured out at the same time, obscuring the view.

Among them, Jung Daesik saw something terrible.

The round snout of the Grand Mall.

Another mouth popped out of it.

It was sort of like an alien.

Although it was smaller than the original mouth of the Grand Mall, it was still large enough to be chewed by one person.

It wasn't exactly anyone else, and it flew to Heo Mirae.

"Ugh."

Heo Mirae took a breath and froze in place.

She probably had a number of ways to delay her attack.

But she was terrified and unable to respond.

Even Kim Si-on, who was in command mode, was a step behind in response.

Kim Si-on's attention was shifted to that direction while covering Park Mu-won.

"Harm!"

By the time Kim Si-on's command came to his mind, the attack had already hit.

But there was no terrifying scream.

Instead, there was only a strange noise, like bones rubbing.

Kag play!

Jung Daesik's body shook, and he closed his eyes tightly involuntarily and slowly lifted his eyelids.

And he looked down at Heo Mirae, whom he reflexively embraced, from the front.

Her startled eyes could be seen growing as large as her lamp.

I thought he had a timid impression, but his eyes were really big.

Jung Daesik smiled briefly, thinking that half of her face was eyes.

Then he spoke to the organ that supposedly was the mouth or tongue of the Grand Mall, which shook his shoulder and back and shook it.

"It's useless. My body... is like steel!"

He turned his body and slammed it with his Adamant knuckle.

Aww!

"Cheeek!"

With the flu, the organ was torn to pieces and blown away.

Jung Daesik let Heo Mirae out of his arms and swung his arms around once.

Then, the teeth that had been embedded in the Talos armor fell down.

Kim Si-on, who had been staring at the scene blankly, came to his senses and asked.

"Are you okay?"

Jung Daesik grinned.

"It's fine."

Raising the level of the steel body was effective.

The grand mall's last strike was quite a surprise.

But to no avail for Jung Daesik.

Its teeth couldn't even break through the Talos armor, and the power that could have crushed a person like a press was useless.

Jung Daesik's body had already become as hard as a lump of iron through his steel body skill.

The wind had only broken his teeth.

Kim Si-on looked absurd rather than relieved to see Jung Daesik without a single scratch.

She muttered to him, "What's going on?" and declared the battle to be over.

She then reclaimed her consciousness by disabling command mode.

Then, Mirae Heo, who was standing nearby, put her hands together in front of her chest and licked her lips.

As Jung Daesik turned her gaze to her, her Mi-rae Heo looked down at her with her bewildered expression on her head.

"...and thank you. For saving my life..."

Jung Daesik decided to talk to all of his troops, but Mi-rae Heo was still using respectful words to him, probably because he was shy.

But it wasn't the way he spoke that was important now.

Jung Daesik bit her tongue and scolded her.

"I didn't do it because I wanted to say thank you. We're members of the same unit, so it's natural for me to save you. What's not natural is your frozen attitude in a moment of crisis. You must have been seriously injured. No matter how little you are active in combat with debuffs, you shouldn't have froze because of monsters!"

At Jung Daesik's point, Heo Mi-rae's face slowly turned red.

Eventually, it became so hot that it could be described as black.

Seeing his eyes turn red, Jung Daesik was afraid he might burst into tears.

'Did I say something too harsh?'

I was hurriedly looking for words to comfort me, but Kim Si-on came up to me and said,

" Jung Daesik is right. We are the most elite, small force. No one should commit such an idiot!"

Heo Mirae trembled while clasping her hands tightly.

But instead of letting her cry, she took a deep breath and looked down once more with her head down.

"I'm sorry. I'll correct it."

"great."

Jung Daesik, watching the scene, suddenly realized.

Come to think of it, it was almost the first time that Si-on Kim called me Jung Daesik straight, rather than a kid, a nerd, a nosebleed, etc.

Are you just trying to recognize yourself as one of the crew?But I couldn't ask Kim Si-on about it.

Heo Mi-rae was still holding up her red face and smiling hard at Jung Daesik.

"What you pointed out... I will appreciate it."

Although he is shy, timid, and fearful, the Hunter is also a Hunter.

She has good reason to belong to the Foreign Legion.

Jung Daesik was quick to correct her judgment on her to treat her as her annoying crybaby.

Instead, she only scratched the back of the head with a smirk.

* * *

A few Crazy Buffalos, lagging behind in the pack, ran away with a ferocious force.

It was only after they disappeared completely, the Thousand Manma Raids and their investigative team, barely surviving the Crazy Buffalo herd, were revealed.

"What about the damage there?"

As Peter Jang approached and spoke, Kim Si-on looked around the Foreign Legion and said,

"Not at all. What about that one?"

Peter Chang showed a look of amazement at the gruesome corpse of the Grand Mall that had fallen behind him.

"They're all safe after defeating the Grand Mall, so your skills are amazing! Fortunately, there are no casualties on our side either. However, there are a few wounded, so it looks like a few people will have to join the porters and return to base camp."

"How many were injured?"

"Five."

"Five, that's quite a lot."

"I think we need to reorganize our hunting team."

While dealing with the wounded, the hunting team ended communication with the support team and rested for a while.

In the meantime, I filled up my meals with emergency food and rushed the road again.

The target area of ​​the Wyvern was about 40 km.

If it's a flat road, you can run it in a day, but if it's a place where monsters pop out in all directions, it's a different story.

In order to return to work within three days, I had to get to the nest by tomorrow, so I had to hurry.

Five crew members were left behind due to injuries, and the Foreign Legion was the most forward-looking.

The first group started to guard the investigation team and the second group to monitor the rear.

The place the Crazy Buffalo swarmed by was full of silence, and it was quiet.

Thanks to that, it moved up to 10 km without any obstacles, but soon the sound of flapping wings began to be heard in the sky.

"Kyaaaaaaaah!"

It was the appearance of the Wyvern.

"The Wyvern is coming! Prepare for battle!"

"Ready for battle!"

Peter Chang's prompt order was issued.

"All members, move to the pit in front. Yumi Hwang, spread your stealth skills!"

As the crew rolled into the pit and avoided themselves, Yumi Hwang, the buffer of the Cheongun Manma attack, stepped forward and showed off her abilities.

As she murmured her starter words and drew her fingers in her air, she felt a little dark everywhere.

Perhaps it was a move to conceal the appearance of the raid.
