I Stole the Number One Ranker’s Soul 174

Episode 175

The one-armed hunter belatedly realized that someone was holding his shoulder.

It’s not a very big hand, but I got goosebumps all over my body from where it touched me.

I didn’t even dare to turn around and check my face because of the intimidating feeling that sent a chill down my spine.

It was such a scary moment that the message that had just appeared flew out of my head.

Even if I actually got to the point of death, I didn’t think it would be as scary as it is now.

A quiet voice passed through the ears of the frozen Hunter.

“You held up well. “We’ll take care of it from here on out.”

female? Who is it?

Not Seo Ji-han, Yu Eun-dam, or Ban Seo-hu.

The owner of the voice stepped forward, pushing him backwards as he trembled in confusion and fear.

It was a woman who seemed to be one head smaller than herself.

“No, I’ll take care of it.”

The face that spoke while slightly turning around looked much more docile and younger than expected.

Leaving herself frozen and blinking, she quickly reduced the number of monsters.

As if destroying the common sense that attacks take time to raise magic power, the magical hunter slaughtered monsters with white light bursting out from his small palm like a machine gun.

In the face of overwhelming destructive power, even the bravest monsters were unable to keep their spirits up and slowly took a step back.

“Mr. Moa…?”

The conductor, wearing such hand-shaped gloves, opened his eyes and stared.

can not believe it.

Why is Mr. Moa here?

I’m not looking at nonsense, am I?

Son Mo-ah, who quickly cleared out the monsters that were an immediate threat, turned around inadvertently when she heard her name being called.

And then we made eye contact with Deputy Director Shin.

“oh my god! Mr. Moa! Are you really Moa? I thought he was dead…”

Son Mo-ah was also very surprised by the appearance of an unexpected person.

However, seeing the scene of Abi Gyu-hwan visible beyond him made her calm down again.

“Deputy Director, Assistant Manager. It’s been a while. I have a lot to say, but first. “Go in here and get some rest. This isn’t a good place to chat.”

I was already worried about the two of them and wanted to find them, but it just so happened to work out.

Son Mo-ah approached me warmly and immediately opened the gate.

“I see. I think we really have a lot to talk about.”

Assistant Manager Kim mumbled in confusion at the unusual appearance of the gate.

However, he recognized the urgent situation and rushed to the gate without saying anything.

Other people who saw him also noticed the situation and entered the gate.

“Mr. Moa must be safe. .”

“Do not worry.”

After the conductor Shin, who was looking intently at Son Mo-a’s face, entered, Son Mo-a closed the gate.

It would have been good to keep it open so other civilians could evacuate, but there was a greater chance of monsters entering.

Anger filled Son Moa’s eyes as he turned his eyes to the battlefield again.

My ears were deafening from the screams of terrified people.

Monsters mixed in the city center.

And dying people running away.

“I tried so hard not to see this…” A

low mutter came out behind the sound of grinding teeth.

Meanwhile, Moa was continuously firing her Chungwang Cannon. Even

so, she couldn’t save everyone. .

Son Mo-ah, who was sorting out the monsters on the ground as he saw them, discovered a group of flying monsters. They were

Chrysanthemums.

They looked like a mixture of shrimp, crayfish, and dragonflies.

It was reminiscent of a swarm of midsummer flies. It was a terrifying number.

If that number starts slaughtering like that, this area will be devastated within 30 minutes.

– It’s a number that can’t be answered by killing them one by one.

Seo Ji-han, who was next to me the whole time, muttered.

The materialization cooldown is still over. It wasn’t over and he was in a state of burnt spirits.

“If I use Chungwang Thunderstorm, I could kill it with one hit. If I do that, everyone here will be killed with one hit.”

Son Mo-a first pulled out her wings and flew up. She

continued to fire her Chungwang cannons at the ground and did not let down her guard against the flying monster.

– Why not just fire a few dozen powerful shots and let them penetrate? Do you have the strength?

“I have the strength . Even if it doesn’t work, we have to do something if it is effective.”

Suddenly, the huge river flowing right next to him caught the eye of Son Mo-ah, who was talking about it. It

was a place with no people.

It would be great if we could lure monsters

over there. But they said, ‘Why don’t you go over there with me and have a drink of Han River water over there?’ There was no way he would have followed me just because he said so.

– Um, the guy in the lead over there looked a little different?

“Where? I’m out of my mind right now.”

– Over there. It’s a little small so it might not be visible.

Son Mo-ah, who was fighting monsters and looking closely at the direction Seo Ji-han pointed, nodded.

“I found it. It’s a little small, right?”

– Yes. The color is a bit yellow.

Just as Seo Ji-han said, I saw a monster with bright yellow chest hair like a bee and a big belly. It

looked completely different from other guys that looked like crayfish or lobsters.

It had eyes. As Son Moa was squinting, an idea suddenly appeared in his head.

“Now that I think about it, I heard that in the past, when bugs flew in groups, they followed one bird in charge of the vanguard.”

– Really? Then it means that if you lure the vanguard towards the Han River, he will follow you somehow. But how do you lure him in? “

There is no need to lure the vanguard. I will take over that role.”

Sonmoa, who spoke confidently, activated the King Chung’s transformation skill.

Fluffy hair grew under the neck and his body was covered with a carapace.

Then, his body began to increase in size like bread puffing.

The smooth hands and feet transformed into the solid front legs of the Chung King. Even the legs, which were lacking, were stretched out from the sides.

A moment later, there was an unmistakable insect king standing there.

It looked exactly the same as the vanguard of the flying insects seen in the distance.

Except for the fact that it was wearing clothes.

– Gather. Equipment!

“Oops. “I almost forgot.”

Next, Son Mo-a activated the invisibility function of the equipment item.

Awkwardly, the clothes covering Chungwangryu’s body became completely transparent and disappeared. Although he

suddenly became naked, Son Mo-a was not embarrassed at all.

“It’s convenient because only the clothes can be made transparent. ”

– That’s right. I guess it’s for hunters like you who have transformation skills or invisibility skills. Wouldn’t it be strange if you turned into an invisible person but only your clothes were floating? It would hurt the pride of S-class equipment. “Small differences make luxury goods

. “That’s right.”

Quoting a quote from an old advertisement, Son Mo-a slowly flew up.

There was no need to explain to Seo Ji-han what she was going to do next.

Even without saying a word, Seo Ji-han could already see through Son Mo-a’s thoughts through the experience of living together for a long time.

Son Mo-a As they approached the swarm of monsters, they stopped moving forward with great force.

After waiting for a moment for confusion to spread through the huge horde, Moa Son punched the vanguard.

Then, he immediately turned his back and began to fly quickly towards the Han River.

At first, he had no idea what was going on . Chungwangryu was puzzled by what had happened, but soon began to fly after Sonmoa.

The monster, who was truly the leader, wondered inwardly, ‘Have I misunderstood the direction?’

In fact, the instructions may have changed in the meantime . I don’t know.

That new colleague who didn’t respond or say a word was a bit strange, but I just thought he was a guy with a dirty personality. – Yes, if you

move so quickly, they won’t be able to understand the situation properly. I moved quickly without giving them time to think. .

Son Mo-ah wanted to answer Seo Ji-han’s words, but then her disguise would be exposed.

She kept her mouth shut, strengthened her wings, and quickly headed toward the Han River.

The sight of tens of thousands of insect kings flying in the pitch-black sky was a terrifying sight. And

at the forefront was Son Moa.

Finally, the moment all the Chungwangs entered the Han River, Son Moa turned around.

Why did they stop here, where there was nothing to destroy or massacre?

The moment the Chungwangs were wondering, a new spearhead spoke: Unintelligible words came out:

“You worked hard to come here to die.”

I don’t know what that means, but what is certain is that they have fallen into a trap.

On the new leader’s forehead, a horn I’ve never seen before was shining bright blue.

A king? But the system message didn’t warn about the loyal king?

A message saying it was Nio-wang appeared, but it couldn’t be that guy. This…?

But that guy looks exactly like us? Damn it! We have to run away first. The

frightened insect kings began to scatter to survive.

But it was already too late.

“Goodbye.”

Uuuung Quaaaang!

The brightness that colored the early evening of Seoul poured over the Han River.

Even those who were running away were momentarily distracted by the light.

A shower of lightning rained down.

There was nothing left where the thunderstorm had passed.

“I can’t root. ”

Son Mo-a muttered calmly as she looked down at the thousands of corpses of Chungwang birds hitting the surface of the Han River.

Despite showing overwhelming inaction, it was difficult to find any pride on Son Mo-a’s face.

Instead, her eyes were focused on the corpses of civilians lying on the riverside. Sadness filled me.

“How strong do I have to be to save everyone?”

That’s impossible.

I know it’s true, but Son Mo-ah was just sad.

Seo Ji-han stood next to her like a ghost and quietly patted her shoulder with his out-of-reach hand.

– It’s not your fault. You’ve done enough. I’m not tired. ?

“I’m tired.”

He had just been on the battlefield in another country and had just come to Korea upon an urgent request.

Because he was being chased and fighting so fiercely, he didn’t even have time to check the news, so he found out about the situation in Korea too late.

He came right away after receiving the one-armed hunter’s request. Otherwise, Deputy Director Shin and Assistant Manager Kim would have died as well.

– Don’t push yourself too hard.

Your magic power was limited and your physical strength was already close to its limit due to fighting all day.

But Seo Ji-han’s voice set Son Mo-a on fire.

“No. In times like this, you have to overdo it.”

– I have to gather.

“You have to overdo it.”

Seo Ji-han was silent with a sad expression.

Son Mo-ah, who looked at him for a moment, immediately took out one side of the Sotong Gwa.

After checking the note attached to it, she swallowed the Yu Gwa in one mouthful.

It was a Sotong Gwa that leads to Ban Seo-jin.

“Mr. Ban Seo-jin . Are you in Korea now?”

“Oh, you’re nearby. I just saw a flash. “It wasn’t a joke, was it?”

“Then you know where I am. How much stamina do you have now?”

“There aren’t that many. To be honest, I feel like I’m going to die. Ugh, the power of the skill has decreased, so it’s hard to kill them with telekinesis anymore. In fact, I’m catching them one by one in hand-to-hand combat.”

“It takes less stamina to simply float rather than kill a monster, right?”

“That’s right. Since you just have to bear the weight, it’s definitely easier than trying to break the shell, right?”

“Then, gather the ground monsters in my direction and use telekinesis to levitate them, and when I tell you to, send them to a place near the Han River where there are no people. I will wipe them out with a thunderstorm. And if you see a flying insect, please tell me. I can lure them in!”

“Oh, that’s good! Looks like a good linkage operation compatibility, right? Oh, and one more flying Chungwang unit is coming. It’s moving from the direction of Seokchon Lake towards the Olympic Park.”

“Yes, I checked. I’ll go there.”

As soon as I finished giving instructions to Ban Seo-jin, a call came in from Yoo Eun-dam:

“Sister! I’m currently monitoring the entire situation at higher altitude to see where the monsters are coming from. First of all, it appears the most at the Dungeon Management Office. “It’s sprouting up all over the place, and it looks like someone got together and opened a portal.”

“Okay. Seo Ji-han, how much time is left before you materialize?”

– About 10 minutes?

“Then, please go to the Dungeon Management Office right away and destroy the portal as soon as it materializes.”

– What about you?

“I will continue to lure and kill the insects like I did before. I think that will allow me to kill a large number of them compared to the time.”

– Yes, take care.

“I’m strong. Don’t worry.”

Seo Ji-han’s transparent body flew in the direction of the Dungeon Management Office.

After watching the figure moving away, Son Mo-ah’s gaze scanned the air again.

It was looking for the group of Chungwangs that Ban Seo-jin had mentioned.

The screams and binge drinking were on the floor. In the dizziness caused by the magical power revealed, Son Mo-ah was burning with more anger than ever before.

The voice of Yoo Eun-dam, which she had just heard, was echoing in her ears.

Someone is bringing monsters to Korea through a portal, right?

This is it . It’s not just an accident, there’s someone who intended and wanted this situation to happen?

Why? Why? For what purpose?

Son Mo-ah raised her head in anger and despair.

The duration of communication with Yoo Eun-dam had not yet ended.

“Ndam.”

“Wow. Huh? Why, sister?”

“Are you sure someone is summoning monsters through the portal?”

“Ah yes. Is it a real dog? I found the location, but my attacks don’t work because of the barrier. “Can your sister go?”

“I’ll go as soon as I’m finished here. Seo Ji-han will also be going, so please tell me the location so it doesn’t overlap with me. It’s not just one or two places, right?”

“…yes. “There are so many.”

“okay.”

Son Mo-a took a deep breath.

Grinding her teeth inwardly, she went out to kill the monster on the banks of the Han River.

As if she were taking the place of the person she really wanted to kill.

“Eundam.”

“yes?”

“I want to know who did this. Can we investigate?”

“Yes? Yes, of course.”

“thank you. I want to know who I am. “I really need to know why.”

Because too many people died.
