◈Episode 69 From the beginning (4)
“Are you human?”
The pirate who boarded the ship risking death inadvertently said such a thing. It had to be that way.
“Can we survive?”
There are also humans from the church who create a defense shield so large that it covers the entire bay. Even humans who fly without wings and slaughter all the devils in the sky.
They all didn’t look like people.
I wanted to believe it because it didn’t seem like a person.
“A human from the damn church….”
“Ha, if it were normal, I would have cursed and asked who burned it.”
They saw him praying and holding his mace tightly.
The falling pillars of light and the flowing golden light looked abominably noble and sacred. If it weren’t for our bad relationship with the religious denomination, we might have been praying with our hands together.
Suddenly!
“Oh, I’m hungry!”
“The ship is sinking…”
Meanwhile, miracles occurred elsewhere.
The person who crossed the sky trampling flying demons caused a ship to sink. It was a dance that could not be imitated no matter what article was used.
“Who on earth is that man?”
“Where do you belong?”
When I first saw the black energy reminiscent of the devil coming out of the man’s sword, it gave me a very ominous impression.
However, the moment that evil energy surpassed the demons and split the ship coming this way, they accepted it.
No one would look bad at someone who saved them from the threat of death or even eliminated all their enemies.
“This is unexpected. “It’s even a bit surprising.”
“Captain Seo.”
Then the outlaw Chimawa stood near him. The face said to be the most beautiful of all pirates in existence gently rolled its eyes at him.
“Are you hurt anywhere?”
“Yes.”
Could it hurt? The golden barrier created by the priest’s prayer did not even allow entry or exit, let alone attack by demons.
The story is that they are structured so that not a single injury can occur on their bodies.
“Well, the people who get hurt here must be idiots!”
The outlaw, who sensed his feelings, laughed heartily. It was an exuberant look that did not go well with her pretty face, but even the face that went beyond the norm was beautifully pulled off.
Pirates from other factions who were not on the outlaw’s ship blushed.
Quang!
Meanwhile, another ship collapsed.
The sails and masts were split diagonally, and even the ship’s body could be seen in the distance. Water flows through the section that is split in half.
“Haha. “I have never thought that Brother Surya’s personal favor was good, but from now on I will have to cancel it.”
“Was it the person brought by the Wind Hand?”
“maybe.”
“Then that priest too…?”
“Wouldn’t you say so?”
“why…?”
“I don’t know that. But it’s not helping right now. “Isn’t that enough?”
Pow!
Another ship sank. There were still many monsters flying in the sky, but compared to the beginning, about half of them had disappeared.
“What can’t you do to survive? “It’s a grudge, and if I die now, it will be meaningless.”
That’s not entirely wrong.
He agreed with the captain. His parents and the adults in the neighboring village all described the religious order as crazy and something that should not be associated with anything… but he did not want to follow that even when his life was at stake.
His life and the lives of his friends and fellow lovers were more important than the grudges of faceless grandparents.
“So, I really like that priest.”
Coo coo coo coo!
For a moment, the world seemed to be shaking.
In the distance, the sea water began to split.
* * *
I spat out blood and opened my eyes round. A black shadow appeared from under the sea, which is why the sea eventually split.
Kugugu!
As something surged, the water was pushed in all directions, creating white foam. What continued to rise between them were four legs.
“octopus?”
As if responding to my words, the notification window popped up an information window.
「???│???」
I didn’t even expect it.
Kwaaaaah
!
I surveyed the situation while riding on the back of a passing harpy. The harpy screamed and moved its wings rapidly. He seemed to feel a sense of crisis when a being of his own weight was added.
But whether the harpy falls or not is none of my business.
Soaring into the air, I looked straight at the snail’s tentacles, which had expanded from four to five. Even though the distance was considerable, the tentacles were quite thick.
This is proof that the size of the opponent is quite significant this time. It’s not as big as a sea dragon, but I think it’s big enough to surround a ship.
“Kraken Evande.”
Following the sea dragon, is it now the kraken? Of course, it seems like we’re halfway through the episode, so it wouldn’t be surprising if a boss like this appeared.
“Cthulhu is really Evande…!”
If this is going to be the case, I’d rather face the sea dragon one more time. You only had to avoid the head and tail, but the Kraken has 8 or more arms to avoid!
Moreover, while the surface of the sea dragon’s scales was rough, the other side was smooth just by looking at it. Running while stepping on the body must be hard work. It was the worst.
“The big octopus is just jealous and has no taste!”
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one to listen, I expressed my true feelings and jumped out of the harpy’s body.
Suddenly!
My body did a somersault, cut off the head of the gargoyle that was aiming at me, and went down.
Kyaaaaaaa!
Sigh!
And then, avoiding the teeth of the wyvern that was trying to chew my leg, I grabbed its body and climbed on top of it. The blade was stuck in the nape of the wyvern’s neck.
Sigh!
I quickly ran along the wyvern’s body and stepped on the tip of its tail. The blade cut through the wyvern’s skin and finally stopped when it reached the end of the tail.
My body soared into the air again.
bang!
“Ugh! Ha in the sky!”
“Pick up the knife!”
How many meters did it fall? My legs rested on the main mast’s bow. A fairly solid impact came from the foot along with a dull impact sound.
Luckily there is no soreness or injury penalty. That’s enough.
“Kill!”
Meanwhile, the pirates who were sitting on the main mast’s deck or bow were running towards me with their weapons raised. My hand quickly swung the wyvern’s fluid-covered sword.
Soon, a silver trace will be engraved on the world, and after the second hand moves once, it will be misaligned and broken.
The blood spread in many directions and fell downward.
“What the fuck? Red rain?”
“Look up, you idiot!”
“The enemy is on board!”
“You ghost!”
Sigh!
At that time, the kraken’s arm, which was quite far away, seemed to be submerged in the water, and it approached by cutting through the water using the octopus’ unique movement method.
The sea water pushed by the Kraken’s body turned into waves that broke across the surface of the water and approached the boat I was on.
slam!
The ship rocked and tilted in the strong waves.
This wasn’t a very good thing as I was standing on a horizontal circular pillar. If I hadn’t held on with my sword stuck in the tower, I would have slipped and fallen.
“What is that! “Why are you coming this way!”
Those who were climbing the rigging to target me shouted.
Even though it is a creature summoned by our allies, a monster is a monster. It felt like I felt physiological fear as it approached. Honestly, just by looking at its appearance, it looks like it’s trying to attack this ship.
Sigh!
bang!
…are you really trying to attack me?
What, aren’t you guys on the same side? I thought you called me!
Kwazijic!
It seems that suddenly crashing into the ship wasn’t enough for the Kraken.
Several arms rose to the surface and began to wrap around the boat. The railings and gunwale deck began to crumble.
“Why the fuck are you attacking us, octopus!”
“You damn devil worshipers said we’d be fine!”
“Sailors! To the location! Ready for battle!”
“What’s the fuss!”
I started hearing conversations from the deck below. I think those people didn’t expect this situation either.
“I should have been on a ship with devil worshipers!”
Even saying things like that.
I’m not sure about the ship I cut down earlier, but at least this ship doesn’t seem to have any followers. It wasn’t a bad thing.
Kwajik Kwazik!
And the Kraken attacking this ship was also good news to me. I now have a tanker who can act as bait while I deal damage.
I pulled out the sword that I had left as a support and had not taken it out yet. Pop! The sword was pulled out, scattering pieces of wood. Slurp. My body slipped.
Flap boom!
The body that fell as if flowing naturally rotated according to my will and took a posture. As my body fell to the middle of the deck, I sheathed my scimitar and slowly placed my hands behind my back.
“…!”
“That bastard…!”
wickedness. A faint friction sound rang in my ears, and the True Two Hander of Destruction was pulled out.
“Victory to my sword, glory to the sky….”
Jet-black magical power was sizzling over the sword body.
“Damn to the devil.”
The body that jumped forward cut off the Kraken’s arm. I tapped my wrist heavily, feeling as if I was using jelly, which was softer and softer than the sea dragon.
thud!
The huge octopus arm, writhing even when cut, rolled around.
“I cut it!”
“I got a kick out of it!”
For a moment, these people, who were, in fact, my enemies, were happy as if they were on the same side. I didn’t know that I would experience here that the enemy of my enemy is a temporary ally.
Oooooooong—!!
Immediately after, a strange howling sound shook the sea. The Kraken’s arms fell from the ship all at once and waved.
Although the deck was a bit narrow, it felt like a really typical boss battle or raid.
bang!
okay. The fact that several arms suddenly strike down, and the fact that there is an opportunity to dodge while doing so!
“Ugh!”
Of course, as expected during the sea dragon raid, the mast and outer plating were broken. As a bonus, the pirates were crushed to death as well.
But since they were the ones who would have been buried anyway, wouldn’t it really matter?
I quickly swung my sword before the tentacles that hit the deck were removed. Three tentacles were cut in succession, leaving marks on the deck.
The last one was less cut and dangling, but I feel safe with that for now. I’m sure they won’t attack with that. Even if I do, it doesn’t seem to have much effect.
Oooh,
but my thoughts were immediately wrong.
“A monster’s arm!”
“Play…?”
right. The octopus is a creature that regenerates even cut parts…
I was speechless as I saw bubbles rising from the cut cross section and the severed tentacles soon regenerating.
Even in the case of an arm that wasn’t completely cut off, a new one sprouted, collided with the existing one, and was then integrated. So, I grew up in a Y shape.
It was a completely crazy game!!
If you’re going to do this, please mark the enemy’s HP as well!
Quang!
The Kraken’s arm began to pound my stomach, targeting me persistently.
Just a moment ago it was all about hitting the deck, but now the pattern was varied, including breaking through the ship, penetrating it, and slamming it down on me while holding on to something.
“Tch.”
What should I do with this? It’s not difficult to avoid it right now, but it’s different after the ship sinks. The moment you fall into the water, game over is 98% guaranteed.
Or should I rely on my skills and intuition again and fight by stepping on the Kraken’s legs? My heart is already pounding.
I stepped on one of the Kraken’s tentacles to avoid the mast coming down at me. Even on the heels of military boots, I felt as if the mucous membrane had been coated beyond the smooth moisture. This is the sliding angle.
Phew!
I quickly plunged the knife in. Joo Wook. The body slipped and hurt the kraken’s tentacles.
Still, it
took some time and the mast was lowered into the ship. I stepped on it and quickly jumped up.
No matter how much you think about it, fighting while stepping on the Kraken’s body is impossible. Unless you have crampons or something.
So what now? Is there no way?
Kyaaaaaaa!
As I was closing my eyes over the sinking ship from before, a glimmer of hope flew towards me.
Wow!
It was a gargoyle.
“…!”
…I decided on you, Gargoyle!
I activated my survival instinct, checked the escape route, and jumped vigorously, breaking the mast. Tentacles were attacking me from all directions, but I was okay.
As if I was doing a high jump, I turned my body half a turn during the jump and showed my back down. I didn’t mean to jump particularly high, but a cold, slippery sensation passed down my back.
And what follows is hotness. The fire emitted by the gargoyle warmed the air and spread in all directions. It was the hot air that warmed my back.
However, as long as it is successful, this heat is of no concern.
I turned my body again. If the rotation you just did was like twisting your waist, then it’s time to change your legs to the head position and your head to the leg position.
Sigh!
My foot moved from the gargoyle’s head along the back of its neck. Just as I was about to lose my balance and fall to the side or fall into contact with the thin tail, my sword pierced the gargoyle’s back.
Kyaaaaaaa!
The gargoyle screamed and twisted its body. Naturally, the direction of flight changed and it began to flutter upward.
My added weight made me fluctuate in altitude, but that prevented the kraken’s tentacles from catching me.
The gargoyle climbed to a higher place. It was the height at which a harpy wyvern could fly.
“Is there a game where the player creates his own scaffolding?”
I swung my sword until my internal organs were torn to thank the gargoyle for lifting me up.
Sigh!
Blood and flesh flew into the air. My body was also there.
Kiak?!
As I photographed the wyvern’s torso, my body resting on its back began another aerial battle.
The goal is to tour the ships. If it is true that the Kraken is aggro towards me, I plan to use the Kraken to sink all four remaining ships and then catch the Kraken one last time.
For example, the name of Operation: EJ.
