The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

"The late emperor, who had passed away, suddenly resurrected...."

The story that Chang KiByung told was a well-known story among those who had cleared this map, including Sung JiHan.

The story goes that the former emperor of the Feng Empire, who had died a year ago, suddenly resurrected and reclaimed the throne he had passed down to his son, launching a large-scale invasion on the Un Empire.

The goal that the resurrected emperor had in attacking the Un Empire was none other than the "divine beast."

"The emperor said that he would find the divine beast to offer it to the phoenix that resurrected him. As you know, the divine beast is none other than the Un Empire, right? So the emperor broke the inviolable treaty and prepared for a large-scale invasion."

"And especially regarding the phoenix and the bonghwang, the emperor said to secure them no matter what. That's why there was a hint placed on the entire bonghwang, and luckily, I was able to solve it... When I saw the bonghwang, even my eyes were turned upside down."

The NPC named "Enlightened Black Spearman" was quite talkative despite asking to be saved.

He gave off a feeling of being a chatterbox.

- When will this speedwagon nonsense end?

- This NPC talks the most in this map, f*** f*** f***

- Sung JiHan summoned the bonghwang and added more lines to the dialogue!!!

- Alright, enough, just tell us the boss's weakness already!!!!

Perhaps because it was a map that required diamonds, the viewers were already familiar with this NPC's lines.

Although Sung JiHan summoned the bonghwang and added a few more lines to the dialogue,

In any case, the story was summarized as the emperor resurrecting and invading the Feng Empire.

"Hmm, is that so... The emperor anxiously resurrected with the power of the phoenix...?"

"I also didn't know that there really was a phoenix."

"I have one question. Why are they using the flag of the black swan instead of the original flag of the phoenix? It should have been red."

The symbol color of the phoenix is a reddish color resembling fire.

However, the flags of the invading Feng Empire and the undead were all adorned with black swans.

When BiJang asked about this, Chang KiByung answered.

"The actual appearance of the phoenix that revealed itself was black."

"The phoenix is black?!"

"Yes. That's why the emperor ordered to change the color of all the flags in the empire... If not, the phoenix's offspring will punish them."

As soon as Chang KiByung mentioned the phoenix's offspring,

Thud-!

The sound of flapping wings resounded loudly from the sky, and Chang KiByung screamed.

"Ah... They appeared! It's them!"

Those guys.

It was the appearance of the final boss of the leg map.

"They appeared."

The boss monster of the leg map, the phoenix's offspring.

The identity of the boss monster was not just one, but a group of dozens of monstrous creatures gathered together.

Seeing the phoenix's offspring flying from afar, the protagonist muttered in disbelief.

Each one of them was as huge as the phoenix, which was why they came in swarms.

"...What, what is that size? Are those really the phoenix's offspring?!"

"Yes... Those birds are indeed the phoenix's offspring...!"

"What, what do you mean by offspring?!"

Startled, the protagonist and the spear soldiers exchanged words, but Sung JiHan and the viewers were just uneasy.

They already knew what was happening.

-They made it this far with gold...

-It's not really surprising, lol.

-Can they wake up?

-Well, since Hojo is dead, isn't it a loss?

-Yeah, if Hojo is gone, Bichang will help.

As the viewers said, the phoenix's offspring were not weak.

But more than that, the main boss Hojo, the leader of the Bonghwangdae, was a formidable enemy in the game, so it was safe to say that the game was already cleared without him.

In addition, there was another element that helped with the strategy against the phoenix's offspring.

"These birds. They look quite strong!"

"I... I know their weakness!"

The spear soldier spoke of a "fatal weakness."

"Among them, the blue-beaked bird is the real one...!"

Although the phoenix's offspring looked exactly the same on the outside.

They had five different colors for their beaks, showing distinctiveness.

Among them, the bird with the beak color pointed out by the spear soldier was the real phoenix's offspring, but this changed randomly every time they played the game.

-It seems like this time the blue color is darker.

-There are still 5 of them, right?

-Yes, the number of birds is the same. There are 25 birds divided into 5 different colors.

-If you focus on the real one, the fake ones will also disappear when hit, like the offspring of a phoenix.

-Due to this weakness, even though the offspring of the phoenix is the final boss of this map, it is considered weaker and less evaluated than the phoenix.

"Blue color... How do you know that?"

"The blue offspring only ate the offering. The rest were transparent from behind."

"Well, alright. While we're attacking, let's start with the blue-beaked one."

"Oh, and try to refrain from mixing the power of the phoenix with the heavenly thunder as much as possible..."

Perhaps because the phoenix is present, the spearman was about to say something else.

When Sung JiHan looked at the spearman with a puzzled look.

"Heavenly thunder?"

How does the spearman NPC know about the heavenly thunder?

When Sung JiHan looked at the spearman with a puzzled look.

In an instant, his mouth stopped abruptly.

No, it wasn't just his mouth that stopped.

The whole world stopped.

[System detects an anomaly in the NPC's dialogue...]

[A terminal from the forbidden seat has infiltrated the game.]

[Expelling the intruder.]

"What...?"

And soon.

In the frozen world, the spearman slowly brushed his hair back.

***

"Tch. I was trying to talk to the head."

The spearman referred to Sung JiHan as "head."

It was obvious who this opponent was.

"The seat of the dead star."

If access to Earth is prohibited, how did he get in?

"I briefly possessed the former disciple, but he found out."

[Initiating expulsion procedure. 5. 4...]

"Ah, I got it. Head! Be careful of the birds! They're dangerous, so don't get caught! Especially, don't mix the power of the phoenix! 'The Tree' can detect you!"

The spearman earnestly advised Sung JiHan.

It was advice filled with genuine concern.

"Then, see you next time!"

As he waved his hand for the last time, the spearman, who had been moving alone in the frozen world, also stopped.

[Restarting the game.]

After this system message appeared, the game resumed.

"Huh... Why?"

The spearman, who had advised not to use the power of the phoenix, also had a puzzled expression. He hesitated for a moment and muttered to himself.

"What's wrong? Why did I stop talking?"

"Oh, no, it's nothing."

-What's wrong? Why is he like that?

-Did they add additional lines in real-time and it didn't match?

-What? Haha, does it look like a game for kids?

-Ever since the TOP 100 game, BattleNet doesn't seem so perfect.

The viewers who were watching the game were only talking about the fact that the spearman was stuttering and didn't hear the previous lines.

"BattleNet... Isn't it too easy to breach?"

It hadn't even been a week since the end of the TOP 100 match, and they allowed another intrusion.

It was clear that there was a hole somewhere in the BattleNet system.

"But anyway, was that spearman originally a disciple of the seat?"

An explanatory spearman.

Although it was a bit strange that a soldier who begged for mercy calmly explained the situation and even knew the weakness of the enemy boss.

I thought he was just an NPC created conveniently by the system, but it seemed that wasn't the case.

"What's the problem with mixing heavenly thunder and the phoenix's white flame?"

If the problem was the phoenix itself, Sung JiHan would have asked to put the phoenix of the phoenix machine that is currently floating for the buff.

What he pointed out was simply mixing the two powers.

Could it be related to the fact that Hojo was inexplicably crumbling a little while ago?

While Sung JiHan was contemplating about the recent events.

"Master."

Behind him, Ariel approached and spoke, who had been left at the entrance of the legs.

"Can't those birds use me to catch them?"

"Why?"

"They are enemies that receive the protection of the World Tree and devour our tribe."

Upon hearing those words, Sung JiHan recalled the story that Kallein's terminal had told him a while ago.

The advice that the "tree" can sense you.

Was the tree referring to the World Tree?

"In my previous life, the World Tree Union and Kill the King acted together to destroy the Earth... They didn't get along well, did they?"

Now that he thought about it, there was no direct contact between the two.

The World Tree Union only caused the Earth's league ranking to plummet in the Space League.

And Kill the King acted in the dungeon and wiped out the Earthlings.

"Even the alien forces have complicated circumstances."

While Sung JiHan was thinking about that.

Ariel seemed to have noticed that he was feeling uncomfortable and spoke in a restless tone.

"If I use those fallen phoenixes as swords, my sword stat will increase."

"Really? Then let's catch them."

Sung JiHan suddenly stopped contemplating.

Whether it was the World Tree Union or Kill the King.

He couldn't stand the thought of his stats increasing.

Sung JiHan reached out his hand towards Ariel.

Shiiiiing-!

As the shadow elf's body disappeared, a shadow sword appeared in Sung JiHan's left hand.

"Y-You? What the hell...?"

While staring wide-eyed at the fact that the shadow elf turned into a sword.

"I will be the one to face them first. I ask the commander to take care of the legs."

"Is it okay if I don't help?"

"Don't worry!"

Sung JiHan strongly requested Ariel not to interfere and stuck the phoenix machine into the ground.

"Ugh. Isn't this too much? I should be the one helping..."

"It's really okay!"

Mumyongsin-gong (Nameless Divine Technique)

Bojeop-bubob (Walking Law Step)

Seomcheonnoebo (Flash Thunder Step)

If he was on the ground, would the shadow help?

Sung JiHan flew into the sky in a hurry, using the martial arts.

It was a sincere appearance that anyone could see that he was serious about his stats.

-Will the shadow help? Should I quickly go and check?

-Should I leave it behind and catch it with a spear?

-It's a boss that the diamonds are forming a team to catch, isn't it too reckless?

-It's Sung JiHan.

-Hojo won too, what's the problem~

As Sung JiHan soared into the sky, the avatars of the black giant birds began to rush towards him one by one.

Perhaps they judged that there was no need to attack Sung JiHan, a mere human.

The flock of phoenix chicks was leisurely.

However.

"These are my specialty."

Shooooo!

As the extended shadow sword touched the phoenix chicks.

Before their flesh was cut, the forms of the chicks were sucked into the shadow sword.

Kiki! Kiiik!

The Gwajo, desperately trying to escape, twisted its body in every way possible.

But it couldn't resist the absorption of the sword and was completely sucked in.

"Ho. Can't resist at all?"

[They are the empty shells that have had their immortality taken by the World Tree. They are nothing more than shadows of their original immortal phoenix.]

So, since they can't resist the Shadow Sword, Ariel confidently said to herself.

[I will keep capturing them.]

Kiiiiik-!

In this way, she easily swallowed up ten of them with the Shadow Sword.

[Shadow Sword level 1 has increased.]

A message appeared on Sung JiHan's lips, with a smile.

'Today, it's really easy.'

Meanwhile.

Kiiiiik......

Unlike a little while ago, when the phoenix chicks saw the Shadow Sword, they hesitated.

[They are trying to escape. We need to catch them quickly.]

'Ah, I can't let them go.'

Mumyeong Singong

Amyeong Singyeol

Amhonwaryu

Sung JiHan unfolded the Amhonwaryu and approached the chicks.

As the Shadow Sword swirled and grew larger...

Kiiiiik-!

The group of Gwajo were helplessly sucked into the whirlpool of Amhonwaryu.

Among them, the main body with the blue beak managed to hold on a little longer.

[Useless resistance!]

Just as Ariel said, it couldn't hold on for long and disappeared without a trace.

In this way, up to the 24th Gwajo was absorbed in an instant.

The last one remaining, the Gwajo with the blue beak.

Kiiiiik......

Even while its body was being disintegrated by Amhonwaryu, the last Gwajo held on for quite a while.

But there was no way for it to survive, just to prolong its life a little longer.

At that moment.

Hwarururuk!

The Gwajo's eyes burned and stared at Sung JiHan.

It was a gaze that seemed to penetrate him.

But soon, the flames in its eyes disappeared. A word came out of the Gwajo's beak.

[What?! Are you saying we're worthless?!]

At those words, Ariel unusually lost her temper.

And the Amhonwaryu continued to swirl faster.

The Gwajo couldn't even look at Sung JiHan for long and was quickly absorbed.

[This bastard...!]

But even until the end, the phoenix chick scratched at Ariel's heart.

As the last Gwajo was swallowed up by Amhonwaryu, a system message appeared in Sung JiHan's eyes.

[Shadow Sword level 2 has increased.]

[You can no longer absorb the power of shadows from this monster.]

"They restrict this kind of thing so strictly."

Instead of restricting things like this, they should focus on security and be more careful.

Sung JiHan felt satisfied with gaining the Shadow Sword stat, but he was a bit disappointed with the additional message that came up.

Well, at least it raised it by 3.

"There's a separate real income there."

Sung JiHan looked down from the sky.

What he was looking at was the Cloud Window Thunder possessed by the Imperial Gatekeeper.

It was time to receive the reward for the epic quest.
