Chapter 425 – Episode 424 – Unit 5 Wiped Out by the Death Knight Army

The troops that infiltrated Fox Island are falling one by one.

The adventurers who were caught in the trap prepared by the great evil Grid were defeated without even using their strength properly.

Currently, four units were annihilated, and the remaining units were also in crisis.

Of course, not all adventurers were defeated in vain. Some units engaged in combat with the Iron Legion. Although they were overwhelmingly outgunned both in number and quality, they did not give up and fought back.

Because everyone knew that if they lost here, they would end up being used as livestock.

So, in order to survive, you must fight at all costs.

Unit 5 was also fighting against the Steel Legion to survive.

“Don’t back down! Push on!”

In a forest, Unit 5 is engaged in a battle with the Steel Legion.

The temporary captain leading this unit shouted at the top of his voice.

Following this cry, the adventurers attacked even more fiercely.

“Ugh?”

I feel alive.

The temporary captain immediately lifted the shield in his left hand.

The sound of something getting stuck. I hear a whining sound.

The spear struck by the enemy was lodged in the shield.

While the enemy was unable to move, the captain swung his sword.

A cut appeared in the enemy’s neck, and his head fell to the floor. The enemy fell, his head missing, a fountain of blood gushing from his neck.

Of course, it wasn’t the end just because one person was defeated.

Other enemies also rushed in, aiming for the captain’s life.

‘Who knows what will happen!’

He blocked the spear rushing towards him again with his shield and swung his sword. Without even having time to check that the enemy’s head has fallen, he pulls his body back. The enemy’s spear split the air where the temporary captain was.

The temporary captain ducked on the spot, and spears rushed in from behind.

The spear aimed at prey pierced the heart of an ally at the front.

The temporary captain did not miss this opportunity and swung his sword. In an instant, three heads fell to the floor in a bloody curve. The three enemy soldiers who lost their heads collapsed like dolls with their strings cut.

Of course, killing these three guys wasn’t the end. Next, other enemies rushed towards the temporary leader.

The temporary leader blocked their attacks with a shield and beheaded them. Even when the shield became tattered and could no longer be used, or when the sword was covered in blood and became difficult to properly decapitate, the temporary captain did not give up. No, he couldn’t give up.

Because the moment you give up, it’s obvious what the ending will be.

Knowing that well, the temporary captain could not give up.

The same was true for other adventurers.

Everyone fought desperately.

Some resisted by swinging their swords, just like the temporary captain,

Some resist by splitting the enemy’s head with an axe,

Some resist by piercing the enemy’s heart with a spear,

Some resist by shooting the enemy with a bow,

Some people use magic to attack and resist enemies.

If you don’t have a weapon, use the surrounding stones to resist, or if you don’t have any stones, resist by scattering dirt.

Everyone resisted desperately, mobilizing everything they had. I did my best to somehow buy time for the transmission magic to activate.

It’s normal that if you put in all your effort like this, you should be rewarded,

‘Damn it. It doesn’t decrease at all, does it?’

Unfortunately, the enemy numbers did not decrease. The Steel Legion, armed with the same jet-black armor as when they first attacked, continued to pressure Unit 5. Even though the adventurers were getting more and more tired, the Steel Legion showed no such appearance at all.

Everyone began to fall into more and more fear at the sight of the Legion, who seemed to be completely immortal.

‘I heard that the devil uses Death Knights as troops…’

The person that Unit 5 is currently dealing with is an undead unit comprised of 〈 Death Knights and 〉.

It is the personal guard of the Great Devil Grid.

In this hunt, the SS was in charge of Unit 5,

Unit 5 was slowly being pushed out by the might of the SS, which came back to life no matter how many times it was killed.

‘This is a complete scam!’

It was just as the temporary captain said.

Of course, those who died from the temporary captain’s sword,

Those who were killed by other adventurers all survived.

I stood up with my head and limbs on my own.

Internal organs sticking out of the stomach were put back in, and if his head was split, it was stitched back together with force.

A phenomenon that directly rejects the laws of nature.

Is it possible to see this phenomenon and not fall into fear?

Unit 5, which had been fighting tenaciously, gradually lost its momentum.

“Hold on just a little longer! Just a little more and the magic power will be fully charged!”

Even the adventurers who had been intimidated by the temporary captain’s words began to gradually gain courage.

If what the captain said is true, we will be able to escape this hell.

‘Okay, just a little more, just a little bit…’

The temporary captain turned his gaze to the bracelet on his wrist.
There was a small crystal ball embedded in his bracelet, and the crystal ball gradually turned white.
When it becomes completely white, the transfer magic is activated immediately, and once activated, you can run away.

‘I hope she didn’t trick us!’

This magic tool was equipment given to the captains of each unit by a nun dispatched by the Prophet and Holy Kingdom.

The Prophet said that by using this tool, you can activate the transmission magic only once.

Originally, the person in charge of captain number 5 was supposed to have it, but the captain entrusted the equipment to the temporary captain in case something happened.

And not long after, Captain No. 5 was kidnapped. Her spy, who was in charge of guiding her on their way, no, the devil’s agent disguised as her spy, kidnapped her. Immediately after that, the Death Knight unit attacked, and Unit 5 was cornered.

But, you will be able to escape now.

“It’s done!”

Finally, the crystal ball was filled with white. The conditions for activating the transfer magic have been met.

The temporary captain immediately shouted.

“Everyone gathers together! Everyone who can move, come here!”

It was the moment when the adventurers were about to gather around the temporary leader.

“… !”

A huge shadow rushes towards the temporary captain.

It was a Death Knight, and perhaps it was the leader, but it wore a different helmet than other Death Knights.

The Death Knight, who appeared to be the leader of the unit, was holding a greatsword in both hands.

‘Oh no!’

The temporary captain tried to respond immediately, but

At that moment, a line was drawn on the captain’s right shoulder.

“Huh?”

The vertical lines soon disappeared,

The temporary captain’s right arm fell off.

“Huh?”

What’s going on? What happened? The temporary captain groped his right arm with his left hand, but found nothing.

All there is a cleanly cut cross-section,

“Ahh, ahhh!”

The only pain that followed.

The temporary captain’s screams as he lost his right arm echoed in the forest.

“I won’t let you get away.”

The leader of the Death Knight unit, which had cut off the temporary leader’s right arm, stabbed the wrist of his severed right arm with a greatsword. The magic tool on his wrist was also destroyed.

“You will die here. So don’t even dream of running away.”

With this, Unit 5’s last hope also disappeared.

●●●

“Do you have any last words?”

The leader of the Death Knight unit asked.

“…”

The temporary captain said nothing.

Defeated, she was tied to a tree.

Her right arm was cut off, and she shed a lot of blood, but thanks to her efforts to stop the bleeding, she was barely able to survive.

Of course, this was just forcibly kept alive in order to be executed.

In a little while, the temporary leader will speak to the leader of this Death Knight unit,

Her life will be lost to Grid’s stepmother, Hera.

“Damn…”

Thinking about this fact, the temporary captain was very angry.

‘If I had held on just a little longer, I could have escaped!’

If she had avoided this woman’s attack in time, she would have been able to return to the Kingdom of Roseum.
If I could run away,

-Now, wait a minute! Ha, I surrender. I will surrender…

-Uh, why… I heard that the woman was spared, but why…

-I participated for no reason. I should just hide. Why are you coming forward? .

The surviving adventurers would not have been executed en masse.

Without exception, those who were captured had their hearts pierced by spears, and all died in agony.

Now it was the temporary captain’s turn.

“There is no need to be afraid.”

Hera said, aiming the tip of her sword at the temporary captain’s heart.

“We are humanitarians. I don’t take lives carelessly.”

“Bullshit…”

The temporary captain retorted in a tone full of anger.

“What kind of bullshit are you talking about after killing everyone? Stop talking nonsense! “Don’t say things like that to the guild leader’s face!”

“Guild leader?”

At this time, Hera asked curiously.

“Is Elish still the guild leader?”

“… ?”

What is this guy?

Why do you know the guild leader so well?

When I looked closely, it looked very similar to the guild leader.

‘Wait a minute, could it be…? .’

This rumor is spreading among adventurers.

The current guild leader is related to the Great Devil Grid.

So not only the guild leader but also her family will be persecuted for that reason.

And, this woman knows the guild leader well.

Then, this woman is the guild leader…

Suddenly, I heard the sound of something hitting.

“Huh?”

“If it weren’t for Elish, she wouldn’t have been able to mobilize adventurers like this.”

Hera sank her great sword.
It accurately pierced the temporary captain’s heart.

Blood flowed down the sword and onto the floor.

“Ahhhhh, ahhh, ahhh…” .”

The temporary captain struggled to survive,

“…”

It soon became limp.

“Welcome, son. “I’m ready.”

The sound of someone coming was heard, but the temporary captain could not tell who it was.
