I am not a returner Episode 412:
War of the Stars (3)
The entrance to the sanctuary leading to Rome.
In the face of a crack that could take you to a country on the other side of the world in an instant if you take just one step, the special lease team that took on the role of ‘bait’ stopped for a moment.
“Whew. “When I think about going, I feel like I’m going crazy.”
Ha-eun let out a deep sigh with an expression filled with tension.
If you cross that ‘gate,’ you are right in the middle of Rome.
As I thought about going to the city full of screams and screams that I had seen on TV, a heavy tension took my breath away.
“Oh my, isn’t that like Ha-eun? ”
“…What on earth do you think of me?”
“Hehe. “I think you are a respected lady, right?”
What kind of madam is this?
Ha-eun looked back at Cassia, touching her forehead as if she had a headache.
“Aren’t you nervous?”
“How can it not be possible?”
“Not to mention that… ah.”
Only then did I see Cassia’s shoulders faintly shaking.
okay.
Even if you try to pretend like everything is fine, there’s no way you won’t be nervous.
What was waiting for them beyond this door was the ‘Constellation of Ophiuchus,’ known to be the strongest among the constellations of the Black Star.
“Hey, you too are human.”
“What do you mean by that? “Of course it’s a person.”
“Isn’t that humanity? “Something like that is lacking.”
“…What do you think of me, Ha-eun?”
The two of them continued chatting to relieve tension.
“Let’s prepare quickly.”
Oh Jin turned around and looked back at the special rental unit.
The number of people in the special rental unit is approximately thirty.
Compared to the entire Allied Forces, the number of people was so small that not even a single platoon was produced, but in terms of actual strength, it was so powerful that it could fight the entire Allied Forces.
First of all, even Chilseong and Ohjin, who were the core of their power, were actually strong enough to erase a fairly large country from the map overnight.
In addition, many talented players who are world-renowned, if not Chilseong, such as Lee Woo-hyuk and Ryo Sakaki, were also in the special loan unit, so in fact, if you look at their strength alone, you could say that their strength was better than the main unit.
“As for the operation… are you really going as you said before?”
Allen asked in a heavy voice.
“yes. “It’s a special lease for that purpose.”
“ha.”
A deep sigh flowed from between Allen’s lips.
Perhaps the awakened people who heard the briefing about the operation also had doubts.
This time, the special team that took on the role of ‘bait’ was so powerful that it seemed excessive.
There are as many as four Chilseongs included in the special lease.
And although it is not well known to the public, Cassia and Isabella Ha-eun, who have powers no less powerful than Chil-seong… or perhaps even more, were in the special lease unit.
Too much power to act as a bait.
Therefore, the role of the special rental unit was not limited to a simple bait role.
no.
Considering the real purpose of the special lease, perhaps the real ‘bait’ role is not the special lease, but the main unit with over 32,000 people.
“…Honestly, I’m not sure whether Mr. Ojin’s plan will work.”
To that extent, the operation that Oh Jin had in mind was an absurd operation.
“It will work. No, you have to make it work.”
Ohjin turned his head and looked at the awakened members of the special unit that would be carrying out this operation together.
Although they are not members of Chilseong, they are still talented people who are making a name for themselves around the world.
Most of them were awakened people who received the constellation’s favor and expectations to the extent that the ‘constellation’ embodied them and followed them around.
Lee Woo-hyuk, who was called the ‘black lion’ and was also mentioned as a candidate for Chilseong.
Ryo Sakaki is recognized internationally as a high-ranking awakened person in Japan, which is despised as a land abandoned by the stars.
Among the 12 apostles of Deneb, Sister Syaoran Xiaolin ranks 4th and 5th in rank.
Even ‘Tekken’ Jason Hardy and Orlando Bale, who previously participated in the test to select Chilseong together with Oh Jin.
Although it is true that her skills are definitely inferior compared to strong players outside the standard such as Chilseong and Cassia Isabella.
They were definitely not awakened people who could never be fooled anywhere.
“As you know, you are the key to this operation.”
In order for Ojin’s operation to proceed successfully, their role was more important than Chilseong’s.
“I understand the gist of the plan, but… will it work out as you think, little brother?”
Sakaki sighed as if no matter how much he thought about it, this was not the case.
“Even though I think about it, I don’t think this is right.”
“It’s not too late, so why don’t you change your strategy?”
Sisters Xiaolin and Xiaoran also shook their heads.
“This is the best method for now.”
In any case, Oh Jin had full authority over the operation.
“I understand. Let’s follow my brother’s plan.”
“Ha… if it weren’t for Allen’s words.”
The awakened people sigh and approach the entrance to the sanctuary.
“I trust Mr. Oh Jin.”
Meanwhile, only Lee Woo-hyuk came out in support of Oh Jin.
“So far, Mr. Oh Jin has shown countless miracles that made no sense.”
Lee Woo-hyuk looks at Oh Jin with eyes full of trust.
Oh Jin felt his heart being pricked by his gaze and cleared his throat for no reason.
“Then, let’s move on first according to the plan.”
Lee Woo-hyuk took the lead, pulling out the sword from his waist.
Following him, Sakaki, Sister Xiao, and other awakened people crossed the entrance to the sanctuary.
“Like this for 30 minutes. “I will wait.”
Ohjin stood in front of the entrance and held the communication relic in his hand.
The relic showed the images of Lee Woo-hyuk and other awakened people who had just passed the entrance to the sanctuary.
-Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
-Coooooo!
As expected.
A huge group of demonic beasts were camped in front of the entrance to the sanctuary.
A group of demonic beasts discovered the awakened people who had crossed the entrance and rushed towards them, screaming fiercely.
-coming!
-Everyone, don’t scatter as much as possible and stick together!
Lee Woo-hyuk cut down the charging beast with his sword, and Sakaki grabbed the beast’s head and threw it away.
The blood clot continued so fiercely that even through the screen, I could smell the fishy smell of blood.
-Ugh! How many of these are there?
-There are too many numbers!
Shouts and cries are heard.
The special team, including Lee Woo-hyuk, continued to cut down the hordes of demonic beasts that rushed at them, but the number of demonic beasts surrounding the entrance to the sanctuary was so large that there was no way to tell.
Like a huge tsunami made of demonic beasts.
Demonic beasts with wildly different appearances, characteristics, and races were flooding in.
-Hehehehehehe!
-Ugh!
There is a limit to human physical strength.
No matter how high-ranking an awakened person was with superhuman physical abilities, it was impossible to fight non-stop against the endless hordes of demonic beasts.
Especially if the crowd of demonic beasts that are flooding in are powerful demonic beasts whose physical abilities have been greatly enhanced by the power of the ‘snake’.
The special team, which had swept away the group of demonic beasts with ease at first, gradually began to let out heavy breaths and fall back.
Among them, there was an awakened person who collapsed on the floor due to magical exhaustion.
“…I can’t do that.”
Allen, who was watching the situation through the relic, stepped forward.
“Wait.”
“But…”
“If we go now, the operation will be in vain.”
“….”
Allen stepped back, biting his lip gently.
‘little bit more.’
Ohjin looked at the screen with deeply sunken eyes.
Although it is precarious.
It was still holding up well.
-Wow! Cough!
at that time.
‘Iron Fist’ Jason Hardy, who was hit by a magic beast’s arm, spewed blood and was thrown away.
The barely maintained formation rapidly collapsed and a horde of demonic beasts poured in.
“Mr. Ojin!”
“Not yet.”
I needed a little more time.
When I was watching the situation while biting my lip.
Wooooow!
The other holy relics I kept in my arms vibrated.
A message reading ‘Entry complete’ appeared on the surface of the relic.
‘done.’
Fortunately, it appears that the first objective, ‘role of bait’, was successfully carried out.
While the special lease attracted the attention of the demonic group, the main force led by Alina was able to successfully enter Rome.
‘The movements of the demonic beasts… are there any changes yet?’
Has the fact that the main force has entered not yet been communicated to the demonic beasts?
The army of demonic beasts rushing in like a tidal wave showed no signs of abating.
‘then.’
Now it’s time to move on to the ‘second’ operation.
“Me and Bella will enter first. “The others are waiting here and come out when I give the signal.”
Ojin crossed the entrance to the sanctuary while holding Isabella’s hand.
Wooooow!
Along with the sensation of my body floating, the panoramic view of the ruined city covered in ash and dust unfolded before my eyes.
“Push away!”
In the distance, Lee Woo-hyuk’s voice was heard along with the beast’s cries.
“Hold your hands tight.”
“Yes, Mr. Ojin.”
Oh Jin spread a ‘black screen’ and hid his presence.
Originally, the ability of the darkness could only be applied to one person, Oh Jin, but as the darkness achieved its 12th flowering, the abilities of its characteristics increased, and it became possible to erase the presence of other people holding hands.
‘If you even use illusions here.’
A silver halo enveloped Ojin and Isabella.
With this, it was possible to completely hide not only the presence but also the appearance.
“Are you ready?”
If the core of the first operation were the Awakened, including sisters Woohyuk Lee and Ryosha Sakaki.
The core of the second operation was Isabella and Ojin.
“Yes, I’m ready.”
Isabella nodded with a nervous expression.
Ohjin held hands with Isabella and crossed the battlefield where a fierce battle was taking place.
“Huh oh oh oh oh! “I can’t hold on any longer!”
“Hwaaaaaap! “A man can overcome hardships like this with spirit!”
“I am a woman. “He’s got a brain full of muscles!”
“Hasn’t it been 30 minutes yet?!”
The voices of Sister Xiao and Sakaki were heard.
They were busy blocking the oncoming magical beasts without noticing the presence of Ojin and Isabella, even though they were just a stone’s throw away.
-It’s only been 30 minutes now.
Ojin’s voice, which flowed through Capricorn’s stigmata, echoed in the special rental’s head.
“Is your brother here too?”
“Where are you?”
I glanced around and looked around, but Ojin, who used blackness and illusion, was nowhere to be seen.
-Don’t look around and focus on the battle.
Only the voice echoing in my head lets me know that he is here.
-Everyone has endured well so far.
now.
-Just die according to the plan.
