“That crazy guy…!”
The idiom ‘lightning in a dry sky’ does not exist in heaven.
However, the 7th Apostle ‘Raghmaon’ was recalling exactly that expression without a single mistake.
It has to be that way.
Puff puff puff puff peep-!!
It was not a matter of idiom, but because lightning was really falling in the heavenly sky.
A man with gray hair but not of the Celestial clan roams the sky driving a black dragon.
The armored artillery mounted inside the black dragon’s wing ridges continuously pours out thunderbolts.
“Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!!!!
“Huh?! “Ugh-!!”
“help me-!!”
“The devil! iced coffee! “The devil has appeared in heaven!”
The white thunder spewed out by the artillery burned the innocent residents of Elysion and destroyed the terrain.
Just as someone shouted, the devil has come down to heaven. A very heartless devil without blood or tears!
“All units! “Focus all your firepower on that dragon!”
A total of 10 aerial warships were floating in the red sky due to the fire burning on the ground.
‘Requiem’, the heavenly air fleet.
As soon as Captain Ragmaon’s order was given, the warships twisted their huge hulls to target the annihilator dragon.
“launch!”
Puff puff puff!
The main gun placed at the front spit out sparks toward the target.
The main gun mounted on Requiem is also in no way inferior to the Annihilator Dragon’s Plasma Cannon in terms of power.
Twenty branches of ultra-high-temperature bullets etched a blue line in the sky and began to attack the annihilating dragon and Daeseong.
[The second special skill of ‘Scorching’ mode is activated.]
[Special skill: < Fire Wall >]
Roaring!
The flying bullets were blocked by the sphere of flame surrounding the body of the annihilator dragon and soon melted. “How could this be?!” The concentrated fire was so powerful that
it was a waste
to focus on just one target.
But it disappeared like a lantern in the wind!
Not only Ragmaon, who gave the order, but also
the complexions of the combatants on board the other battleships. Just as it was turning completely white.
Two-two-two-!!
This time, fireballs the size of a head burst through the round fire wall and hit the two battleships at 3 o’clock. The
first special skill of the ‘Scorching’ mode, Flame Bullet (炎彈).
Flame bombs rained down like machine guns and exploded on the power source of the battleship. The
two battleships, which had lost their engines, fell to the ground like birds without wings.
‘Oh my God!’
20% of their power was lost in the blink of an eye. I was dizzy. Ragmaon moved his unfocused eyes and looked down at the ground.
The ground, which was already a sea of fire, had been transformed into an even more terrible mess by the battleships that had just crashed.
‘How can we overcome this situation?’
The first army that marched into the burning mountains of Aboria has now become prey to the dead spirits and is on the verge of being annihilated.
Even the air fleet that protects the center of the continent is no match for that unknown intruder.
At that time.
Ooooh-!!
An exterminator dragon wearing a fire wall rushed to the battleship in the direction of 7 o’clock.
Soon, it tore up the defense shield deployed on the hull with its claws as if tearing down weeds.
A combat soldier on the battleship pierced the exterminator dragon’s scales with a spear knife, but the egg was destroyed. It’s like hitting a rock.
Meanwhile, Daeseong spread his wings wide with his < Flight > skill and destroyed the remaining battleships one by one. With only a single
bayonet.
Creep! Creep!
Each time the flaming sword is swung, it goes 1km away. A large aerial battleship approaching was split like a tofu.
Nine hulls were sunk in an instant without any time to prepare.
A moment later.
“….”
“….”
The only one left.
Ragmaon. Daeseong arrived at the command module and quietly looked at me with a face without a single drop of sweat.
Ragmaon gritted his teeth as he was driven to a cliff from which there was no way to retreat.
He is also the seventh apostle of heaven.
Instead of struggling with despair and being scared, he faced his powerful enemy with confidence.
“…Seeing that it appeared in Aboria, it seems to have come from the dimensional tree. Earlier, Orkiel realized what had happened and sent out in person.”
“….”
“What did you do with her?”
It’s a time-buyer disguised as a question. Ragmaon struggled internally and looked for loopholes in his enemy.
Then, suddenly, he saw the butterfly mask hanging on the waist of Daesung’s armor and contracted his pupils.
Orkiel’s mask.
It was obvious what it meant to be in that man’s hands.
“You bastard who will rip you to death!”
Angered by the death of his comrade, he took out a thin rapier and was about to attack Daeseong.
Deep!
His son-in-law was filled with Daeseong’s face, and the iron-like greatsword pierced deep into his chest.
My eyes were bloodshot, and terrifying heat and pain assaulted my five senses.
“This ship’s firepower is very good.”
“Ugh…!”
Daeseong dragged Ragmaon, who was pale and cooling down, and walked to the very center of the deck.
There was a board-shaped cockpit installed there.
Daesung clearly saw Ragmaon placing his hand on the cockpit and activating the battleship’s main guns.
“I’d like to borrow some.”
“….”
Ragmaon showed no reaction, like a limp wax doll.
Even at the moment Daesung pulls his hand and touches the cockpit.
Recognizing Ragmaon’s fingerprints, the cockpit slowly turned Requiem’s muzzle downward.
And
bubububububung-!!
A beam of light erupted from the main gun and struck the ground.
“….”
Ragmaon looked at the continent being engulfed in fire with dying eyes.
The battleship that protected Elysium’s security has now become a terrible disaster, engulfing the territory.
“Ah… ah ah….”
Only then did Ragmaon, who felt deep sadness and fear, sob hard.
“Well written.”
With those words,
shout!
Daesung broke Ragmaon’s tear-filled face all the way down to his cervical vertebrae.
[The dead apostle’s divine power hovers around this place.]
[Absorbs the divine power of a 6th rank angel of rank. It inherits some of the powerful divine status of an apostle.]
[An error occurred. Since it is not a body of the material world, it cannot accommodate divine power.]
With this, another apostle quietly passed away.
But,
‘I can’t believe it didn’t come out even though I did this. I’m slowly starting to respect you.’
I feel like I want to at least stick my tongue out at the actions of the Lord, who is free from poison.
In the end, it seems that the person named Ju-Jin has no intention of going first to the end.
In that case, I have no choice but to attack from here myself.
Swish-!
Daeseong, riding the annihilator dragon, turned his head and stared into the distance.
At the far end of a vast continent submerged in fire, a cone-shaped building stood like a tower.
The heavens and earth everywhere are an uncontrollable fiery hell, but for some reason it is a peaceful land of rest.
I saw the barely surviving survivors running towards that cone building, panting.
‘It seems like that acts as a green zone. In other words, this is probably the place where a guy named Ju-Jin is most likely to take care of my well-being.’
Since he is the being who rules over heaven, I thought he would have a spirit of sacrifice, but how is this any different from Chairman Sakai, who showed his ugly face during the New York incident?
I’ll bring it out!
A black air current began to swirl behind Daesung’s back as he engraved this fierce thought in his heart.
Hyaaaaa-!
Ahhh-!
The 200 temporarily freed demonic beasts fell towards the ground.
Kwasik-! Wow!
For the demonic beasts of Pandemonium, the Elyos are the enemies of the Unforgiving Heaven that they can never forgive.
They bit the Elyos like hungry hyenas.
Those who barely managed to save their lives and rushed to a safe zone died helplessly in pain.
“Move.”
Ooooh-!
Meanwhile, Daeseong drove the annihilation dragon and rushed into the cone building.
With overwhelming propulsion and flight speed, it only took 1 minute to get close to the building, but…
Huh?!
Suddenly, the annihilating dragon collapsed helplessly and fell to the ground.
thud-!
Just before his massive body collided with the ground, Daesung flexibly somersaulted and landed on the ground.
‘What kind of guy is this who didn’t even shoot light scatterers?’
A guy who just a few seconds ago was chewing on an air battleship with his teeth wouldn’t be tired for no reason.
Immediately afterwards, the system presented the answer.
[We have entered the ‘White Territory’, the central capital of ‘Elysium’.]
[The divine power circling the territory blocks unauthorized ominous energy.]
No, it is not just the annihilator dragon.
Daesung, who used to be a nice guy, felt a strong sense of dizziness the moment he entered this place.
His condition was poor, as if he had acute body ailment.
‘This area itself is taking away the magic power of me and the annihilator dragon.’
In particular, since the annihilation dragon is large, its impact seemed to be several times greater than that of the great castle.
Daesung gently wiped the cold sweat flowing from his forehead and lifted the realization.
‘It goes right away.’
It’s none of my business to know whether it’s spiritual power or anything else.
Wouldn’t it be better to finish your work before you run out of energy?
His body was covered in sweat and he looked haggard, but his eyes were shining brightly.
[The first special skill of ‘Fire’ mode is activated.]
[Special skill: < Fire >]
Burning-!!
The great sword of fire that scattered became flame itself and wrapped around Daesung’s body.
Having been reborn as a giant of fire, he ran towards the cone building that was built not far away.
‘Let’s see who wins.’
The scorching flames mercilessly burned all the paths he passed.
I will break through the building like this and rip off the head of this bastard!
But Daesung soon had no choice but to stop.
Cry rumbling!
Because, without realizing it, the golden chains that fell from the sky were holding my limbs.
“Where are you going?”
A bright, young voice came from above.
Daesung, who was chained with his arms spread out, raised his head diagonally and confirmed the identity of the voice.
A naked boy was flapping two pairs of wings of light and looking down at him with a face full of ridicule.
“Surely you can go into the temple? Tell me the topic, you heretic! That’s not the place for you to go! So come play with me!”
“….”
A name tag reading [Heresy Judge Hikanu] was created above the head of the giggling boy.
A golden chain large enough to wrap around Daesung, who had become a giant, was sticking out from the wings of light.
‘Chain of condemnation.’
This is an item that was purchased from the store window when fighting Ramish.
It must have been said that it can only be used indoors, but are there really no restrictions on the real thing?
Kuuuk-.
I strained my limbs to break free from the restraints, but the chains did not budge.
“To solve it? What do you do?! Just relax! I’ll pull out your right arm first so it won’t hurt! Hi-Hi!”
If it had been in its original state, it would have been forcibly removed by force. However, the white spirit’s divine power took away its strength as if it were blood-sucking.
At a time when even the fiery flame was waving precariously and was about to slowly go out.
< The demonic beasts of Pandemonium offer tribute to the Absolute One! >
< List of offerings: Magical Power x50 >
Scream!
“…?!”
Hikanu, who had been showing a sneer by squinting his eyes, was surprised.
This is because the chain of condemnation, which clearly should not have been shaken, shook violently as if it had been hit by a typhoon.
Hwii-!
Before we knew it, a dark vortex had opened in Daeseong’s rearguard and was emitting a gloomy breath.
A swarm of red light flowed out like fireflies, gathering and seeping into his chained body.
horsepower.
They offered their life force as a tribute.
To help my lord in crisis!
“Crazy guys. “It should have been like this a long time ago.”
Unfortunately, Daesung didn’t like this timing at all, as it seemed like he was deliberately aiming for a dramatic moment.
The energy that had been leaking out of nowhere slowly began to build up inside my body.
The magic power of 50 magical beasts gave him strength much faster than the divine power took away his energy.
Grumble-!
The fiery flame that was about to be extinguished flared up again and set the chain of condemnation on fire.
“Ah tte-?!”
Hikanu hastily removed his hand from the red-hot chain.
The firepower of the flames increased as if pumped by the constant supply of magical power.
Along with the entire chain melting, even the wings of light that were connected were completely burned away.
Sigh-!
“Huh-?!”
Daeseong, who was freed from his restraints, caught Hikanu, who had lost his wings and was falling down, in his grasp.
The lava-flowing retina burst into sparks and glared at Hikanu.
“You said you wanted to play earlier, right?”
“Wait, wait… woo woo, let’s talk first.”
“I’ll play with you. “To my heart’s content.”
“Huh huh huh?!”
Ouch-!
Every time Hikanu’s grip tightened, his eyes became bloodshot.
The pressure of being crushed by a press and the heat of falling into a furnace.
Kwasik-!
Soon, Hikanu, whose skull had burst, was leaking thin liquid. There is nothing like a mosquito trampled by a shoe.
< The magical beasts of Pandemonium offer tribute to the Absolute! >
< List of offerings: Magical Power x25 >
Regardless of whether Hikanu is alive or dead, as long as he is stationed in the territory, magical energy flows out of his body without stopping.
However, each time, the magical beasts of Pandemonium offered as a tribute the amount of magic power that had escaped.
‘I was wondering what an offering was, and it turned out to be a supply of magical power.’
I thought it might be much better than the mediocre ‘Liberation of Dead Souls’.
His only weakness is his limited magical power.
Although it appears to be infinite at first glance, there has already been a precedent for the planet bottoming out as it embodies demonic beasts and summons fields 24 hours a day.
‘Even the territory’s sanctions don’t work.’
This means that no one can now stand in Daesung’s way.
After breaking out of the ‘flame’ mode and returning to his original form, he finally reached the cone building.
And then he delivered a clean kick towards the 50m high stone gate that majestically welcomed him.
thud-!
The sturdy stone gate collapsed like a piece of paper.
The inside of the building was so empty that it was hard to believe its splendid appearance. Obviously a strange shape.
‘It looks like the real inside is hidden.’
A double area where the real thing is hidden behind an illusion using a spell or magic circle.
Hell, the Destroyer Dragon’s nest was also a double area, so Daeseong was well aware of this strange structure.
“omg!”
“this guy! “No way, this far!”
The silver-armored knights who had been guarding the desolate cave charged in with ridiculously large swords.
Daeseong, who was annoying to deal with, half-heartedly used Liberation of Dead Souls.
Ahhh-!!
“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!!!!
While the dead souls scattered from the whirlpool were devouring the knights.
“I’ll take it here.”
In the middle of the cavity.
Daesung muttered as he stepped on the white circle engraved floor.
at that time.
“…So, it’s useless… Huh, because you’re not allowed… Unless you’re a level angel or higher, you can’t even set foot in the temple…” “…
”
The near-dead knight gasped and strained his voice.
Do you want to show off that you somehow got a kick out of it? Even as his flesh was being eaten away, he smiled in remorse.
Of course, Daesung did not react.
Instead, he slowly extended his left hand.
[The magic circle checks your permission to enter the temple.]
[Confirmation complete.]
[After 5 seconds, you enter the temple.]
If you completed the Pantheon’s quest, the system gave you a mysterious golden glow as an additional reward.
And every time that happened, a message with truncated text appeared in front of my eyes.
[…you… have… obtained… the grudge… that was… before. 1 / 3]
[…you have already entered…and obtained…one. 2 / 3]
[You have obtained permission to enter the temple. 3 / 3]
That is the message.
Even after collecting all three over the past two years, I couldn’t figure out what they were for, but it wasn’t until today that I finally figured it out.
“….”
The smile on his face disappeared and the knight opened his mouth wide as he saw the golden glow coming from the back of Daesung’s hand.
His expression seems to be asking, ‘Why can you go in there?’
“What you looking at.”
After throwing a quick word at the dying knight with a helpless look in his eyes, Daesung was immersed in the light.
[You have entered the temple.]
Now the moment has come to truly face the face of the Lord.
