Episode 41.
puff.
” ······ uh?”
As if it had swelled to dozens, Pei-Lung’s spears spread out in all directions, and the head of an unknown man whose tip touched exploded like a lie.
Pupper puffer puck!
“Ouch!”
“What a madman!”
“Quaaagh!”
The spear that began to expand at an unbelievable speed, crushing everything it touched.
A human body or a steel body.
Blood and oil splattered in all directions, but they could not reach the floor and began to vaporize in the air, perhaps because of Peirung’s spear, which constantly rotated and stabbed in all directions.
Strangely shiny red clouds began to spread thickly around Pei-Lung, and it was like seeing a dragon playing in the clouds, which made Born Yi aroused admiration.
Only to those who are watching.
“Shoot!”
“die! Son of a b*tch!”
Tutu tu tu tu tu tu!
The movement of Peirung, who took the lives of dozens of people in one move, showed no signs of stopping, but those gathered here also had their own skills.
Even if they said they were talking, they weren’t ordinary people as they were aiming for a dungeon, and they were quick to judge the situation.
In an instant, a concentrated barrage covered Peirung’s entire body, and at this rate, his entire body was on the verge of turning into rags.
“Hao!”
Peirung’s spear, which had been shouting loudly, was retrieved like a lie, but it circled around his body.
Titty Titty Titing!
The shadow of the spear wrapped tightly around Peirong’s body, and the bullets that cut through space to end the enemy’s life with enormous kinetic energy could not penetrate the shadow.
“······ Nonsense!”
“No matter how unmanned they are, what is that?!”
While everyone flinched at the unbelievable sight, Pei-Lung’s spear did not stop, and the cloud of blood grew thicker and began to take away the life of everything around him.
“······ It’s beautiful to look at anytime.”
The sight of Lucas muttering while looking at the scene of the massacre, where screams and gunshots, death rage and blood and oil spread in all directions reminded me of a madman, but no one in the party actually disputed that opinion.
‘It’s gorgeous.’
Even John thought so.
Peirong’s inaction was astonishing.
Fei-Lung was showing miracles in real time that he couldn’t believe he had done with a human body and a spear, and it was enough to give John a new inspiration as his eyes widened as he became a skilled man.
‘If you stick to melee, you’ll never be able to do it. Then what should I do with that guy…’
Of course, what was in John’s mind was the thought of how to subdue Fei-Lung in an emergency.
No matter how much he was a client, he couldn’t trust Lucas, the client, and even more so the party Lucas gathered.
It was only a sneak peek during the journey to this point, but there were not one or two suspicious things in John’s eyes, so it was right to prepare in advance.
“How is it? zone. Are your skills okay?”
Lucas asked if he knew what was in John’s mind, looking at him with strangely warm eyes.
‘I was excited. Was he the bloodthirsty type?’
John answered with a small sigh at the unbelievable appearance that he was always a cool-headed and rational wizard.
“Impressive.”
“right! I had a lot of trouble getting that friend. So do other friends!”
Lucas smiled brightly like a child seeking praise, but his eyes were full of madness, so just feeling the gap gave me goosebumps.
“It’s almost over.”
Zhao’s voice pierced them, and they could see the bloody cloud covering Feilong slowly sinking to the ground.
Hung!
Peirong swung his spear once, and a strong wind blew away the small things around him, and the scene in the hall came into view.
There was no one standing around the 10-meter radius except Fei-Lung.
All parts of the body were intact, and there was no doubt that all life activities had stopped.
“… turn it off.”
Kwajik!
“The bugs are persistent.”
Pei-Lung, who had taken the life of the man who was barely alive by driving a spear into his face, turned his gaze to the party with a fishy smile.
Although it was too skillful to use against the scum, everyone was full of expectations that they would see Pei-Lung as formidable as he showed his confidence to kill the spirit of the formidable party.
but.
“Hey! Gorgeous! good job. Peirung!”
Lucas approached with a bright face, clapping his hands, and Peirung wrinkled his face as he saw that the other people’s faces didn’t show any emotion.
‘······ That guy too?’
Even John, who seems to be the most likely to fall out of the group, has a sad expression on his face.
While watching the torture, I knew that he was not an ordinary guy, but seeing that kind of reaction even after seeing direct force is one of two things.
‘Or if the liver came out overboard.’
Were you confident in your own skills?
Pei-Lung, who raised the danger level of the solver he had been looking down on in his mind, joined the group as if nothing was wrong.
There were only six of them, and although they were apparently unarmed, no one stood in their way any longer.
Someone deserved revenge for Pei-Lung’s indiscriminate murder, but no one came forward, and it was natural.
In Luna, the powerless cannot speak.
And it’s even more so when it’s outside like this.
As if the sea parted, a road appeared in front of them, and the party was able to reach the entrance of the dungeon while receiving gazes filled with fear, envy, greed, and resentment.
“yes. This is how it works. Good work. Pei Lung.”
Lucas, who had been walking on Feilong’s shoulder happily like a child, stepped forward.
“Hmm.”
“Is this a dungeon?”
“Isn’t it more normal than I thought?”
The entrance to the dungeon was so insignificant that John and the others muttered quietly.
The entrance, which appeared to be made of sturdy reinforced metal, was large enough for a fair number of tanks to enter and exit, but other than that, nothing special was seen.
The light along the ramp that seemed to lead underground disappeared at some point, and it felt like looking at an endless abyss, but no one in the party was frightened by that much.
“The real dungeon is further inside.”
Everyone turned their attention to Fioren’s words with a friendly smile, and Lucas continued.
“Fioren is right. I can’t call this a dungeon yet. I still don’t know.”
Lucas’ gaze turned to Doyle, and Doyle, who received his gaze, nodded and stepped forward.
Considering the weight of Doyle, who seemed to have replaced his whole body with implants and the floor was made of metal, it should have been a loud sound, but there was no sound from Doyle’s footsteps.
“Hoo.”
Seeing this, Zhao quietly exclaimed, and Peirong made an interesting expression.
Jiying.
Doyle’s whole body started to make a soft driving sound, and soon, small bumps protruded from various parts of Doyle’s body.
The sensor on the inside of the bump emitted a soft light, and Doyle raised the large gun slung on his back and said to Lucas,
“I am ready.”
“great! Then let’s go!”
The group that preceded Doyle moved their steps and entered the dungeon, and a few who watched them quietly avoided their seats.
***
It seemed to have descended quite deeply, but the passage did not intend to show the end, and when it reached a depth where the light source that brightened the view could not reach, Fioren waved lightly.
Uh.
Along with a sound that seemed to vibrate space, an unknown flow was concentrated in Fioren’s hand, and soon a light source the size of a human head was created and floated into the air.
“You’re good at it.”
“It’s nothing.”
Seeing Fioren lightly shaking her hand at Peirung’s words, John was lost in thought.
‘That’s magic. If I do well, I’ll be able to detect it before it activates.’
It is Luna who uses a lot of magic unknowingly, but it is the first time she has actually seen magic manifest.
John always wears this ability.
Ekaterina’s booster was applied every day, and the organs that had become accustomed to it were producing stronger output, and thanks to this, John spread this ability and the range of sensing the surroundings was increasing.
That’s why John could feel the subtle flow of power emitted when Fioren used magic.
A normal person with special abilities would not have been able to detect magic, but it was possible because John contemplates and adjusts the microscopic world.
Information is updated in real time.
‘Activation time is about 2 seconds. On top of that, Pei-Lung said he was good at it. If that’s the case, it usually means that it takes more time than that to unleash magic. If it’s a powerful magic, it will take more time.’
Peirung and Fioren look at each other with meaningful eyes, and Lucas looks at them with interest.
No matter how well he thought about it, it was clear that each of the party had different plans, so apart from the danger of the dungeon, John couldn’t relax.
It was a crazy situation where he couldn’t trust the party that had been put into the operation area, but John wasn’t too discouraged.
Because it was familiar to him.
Even on Earth before coming to Luna.
How long did it take for the party to advance, each hiding their ulterior motive?
Doyle, who preceded him, stopped walking, but raised his hand with a clenched fist to stop the party.
“Why? Doyle?”
To Lucas’ question, Doyle did not answer and pointed forward with his hand, while Fioren’s magical light source moved forward and illuminated the front.
“Hoo.”
“They didn’t fight among themselves. Is the defense system alive?”
What unfolded before the eyes of the party was a gruesome scene.
Dozens of men were scattered here and there, and it was not easy to find the cause because the scars were all different.
“It looks like the people who went first handled it roughly, but don’t be nervous. There could be some that are still alive.”
A hard voice came out of Doyle’s mouth, and the party immediately knew what Doyle was talking about.
The passage made of metal was broken here and there, and there were remnants of what appeared to be weapons.
Perhaps the dungeon’s defense system moved to kill the intruders, and casualties occurred in the process.
“It’s nice.”
Even when Doyle said that the real danger had begun, Lucas smiled brightly.
“It’s only now that it’s a full-fledged dungeon.”
Seeing Lucas happily rubbing his hands together, the party nodded in agreement.
The risk has already been prepared for the road.
Since it meant that the journey to obtain fruit in earnest had begun, the atmosphere of the party heated up.
“I will raise the alert level.”
The sensors sprouting all over Doyle’s body emitted a stronger light, and although his footsteps subtly elongated, no one bruised it.
Countless corpses were left unattended as if they were milestones in front of the group that started moving forward again, and how long did it take to break through the place where the smell of blood and oil was mixed?
“Here.”
At the end of the long passage, I was able to reach the place where the half-open door was located.
