Chapter 274 – 274. The Otherworld Summoner’s First Special Move (16)
– One –
Boom, Kwakakang!
Kkududeuk, Kwajik!
Hundreds of ruptures made by the 276 Heretic Questioners sounded irregularly.
None of the paladins stand with their feet on the ground.
“Dyungjeo! Dokdeoeoeoeoot!”
Bang, bang, bang, bang!
A Heretic Questioner strikes the giant’s foot with a face stained with madness.
The wooden giant’s skin digs deep.
However, compared to the size of a giant’s foot, which is well over 200m, it is not even a scratch level.
In human terms, it was a wound where the dead skin peeled off a little, and not even blood.
Oh oh oh oh!
A red aura erupted from his body once more.
Intermediate amplification boosts his strength and reflexes and makes his body feel hot.
The three-fold increase in physical abilities leads him to the realm of superhumans.
Aaaaa!
Kwak Kwah Kwak Kwak!
“Aaaaa!”
His fingertips move so fast that you can’t even see them.
The mace he wields makes a sound that can only be heard at the moment of a typhoon.
“Go away, you filthy, unclean creature!”
His eyes are stained with joy.
It was because he himself was aware of the fact that his body was moving forward, cutting through the giant’s flesh.
“Now just a little more…!”
At some point,
Knack, Knack, Knack, Knock.
His hand wielding the mace gradually slows down.
The trajectory of his arm is clearly visible enough for anyone to see.
Tteuk.
Duduk.
The sound of something breaking or bursting echoed through his body.
Dark red spots appear.
The aftereffects of the amplification method, accompanied by muscle rupture and internal bleeding, begin to appear.
“Something like this…!”
But he doesn’t care.
Woo woo woo woo!
Because he was able to heal himself by chanting the healing spell.
The criterion for granting permission to use the amplification method in the church is determined by whether a Heretic Questioner who can use the amplification method can use a healing method one lower than his or her class.
For example, a Heretic Questioner must be able to use a low-grade healing method to use a low-grade amplification method, and a low-grade healing method to use an intermediate amplification method.
In the case of Cardinal Cass, he was able to use both a high-level amplification and a high-level healing spell at the same time, and the other Inquisitors could use an intermediate-level amplification and at least a low-level healing spell.
When the traces of the aftereffects from his body disappeared,
“Haaaaa!”
Oh oh oh oh!
A red aura burst out again,
Whee-ae-ae-ae-ae-aek!
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
The speed with which he wields his mace is beyond common sense.
“It’s obvious that he’s tired now too aaaaa!”
He puts on a cheerful expression and shouts at his comrades.
He was actually a car that was extremely frustrated.
No, not only that, all the Heretic Questioners were struggling in frustration.
“Khaaaaa! His regenerative ability has reached its limit!”
As he said, the giant’s skin had been constantly regenerating before.
But now, his skin doesn’t repair itself.
The movement also stopped.
The cardinal and archbishop were right.
It was evident that its energy efficiency was extremely low.
“Let’s knock him down, crush his head, and rip out his heart!”
Ooh oh oh oh!
At his cry, his colleagues, all the Heretic Questioners, let out a cheer.
They were finally convinced that the goddess had not abandoned the grooms.

Pai Aeng!
Swoop, Swoop.
Mono Horn raises a pale face, wiping her bloody nose with her handkerchief.
The handkerchief she had just made was stained with dark red blood.
“Aren’t you short-tempered bastards? You fools, you think you’ve won, don’t you?”
He smiles as he gazes into the void with clouded eyes.
Jose looks down at him with a concerned expression.
Swoop.
Dump.
Jose comes up to him and sits down.
“Brother… Are you really okay?”
“Yes! This Monohorn is not dead yet!”
“…It seems there’s no need to overwork your body right before you die, but…”
Chuck keel keel keel.
Monohorn let out a bleak laugh.
He tries to focus on Jose’s face.
But it wasn’t very successful.
It was because Jose’s figure was doubled in his eyes.
“Brother, this is worth doing. I wouldn’t do it if it ever happened. Suppose Margarita had to do something like that.”
“Umm…”
José’s expression instantly turned into displeasure.
He wasn’t mad at Monohorn.
It was only because, as he said, as soon as he imagined that Margarita was in a bad situation, he felt unbearable anger.
“This time, Demosh’s sister went through a rough patch, but if things really go awry, any of us could go through that. They define us as rebels, they want to kill us at will, and in our desperate struggle to live, Isn’t it really disgusting to see them act as if they were the victims, just because they shed some blood?”
“… Your sister is right. It’s really disgusting.”
“Yes. We are the victims. So this is just revenge. And if I don’t do this, Octopoda might go mad.”
“Is it…”
Jose had no choice but to accept Monohon’s remarks.
More than anything else, Monohorn was overdoing it in order to appease Octopoda’s anger and return the pain of Demosi.
The massacre by Monohorn was not simply an act to vent one’s anger.
“But, I’m worried about my sister’s physical condition. Is there a way to take a break or start ‘it’?”
“If you implement ‘that’, there is no guarantee that you will catch them all. You have to hit every opportunity, disturb the camp, make it exhausted, and make it a situation where you can’t respond properly, so you can deal a big blow. Even if it’s ‘that’ now, I think someone will run away. If the information leaks out, I think our preparations will be useless next time. No, I’m sure that will happen. So, make sure to screw it up now. I have to let go.”
“Is that so… If that’s your judgment, I’ll respect it. But if it’s hard to hold on, tell me anytime. I’ll implement ‘that’ right now.”
“Yes! I see, brother!”
Tok, tok.
Monohorn pounded his chest with his fist.
Because the force carried was weak, it was a weaker knock than lightly knocking on a door.
“So sister. Why the hell are you leaving the giants alone? If things go on like this, their momentum will increase, and the risk of the giant’s lower body collapsing doesn’t seem to be ruled out.”
Jose continued to look suspiciously at Monohorn, as if he had stopped restoring because he was really tired.
It was as if he had become the eldest brother who obediently demanded the truth be told to the youngest brother who had an accident and was trying to get out of the situation with a lie.
Hehe. That’s it…”
Mono Horn sticks out her head and looks down at her.
It was a clear summer day, so there was nothing between the giant’s head and the ground to block his vision.
I see people wriggling like ants.
The Heretic Questioners who looked down on them looked very insignificant.
“It’ll be fun to see for yourself, brother.”
Monohorn gave a sinister laugh.
Unable to overcome his curiosity, Jose went to Mono Horn and stuck his head out.
Look down carefully.
A groan of horror escaped his mouth.
But he wasn’t aware of it.
– 3 –
Kwak, Kwak Kwah Kwak Kwak!
Kwajik!
Uji support position.
“Whoa, whoa, whoa…”
The Heretic Questioner breathes heavily and smiles with a contemplative smile.
But soon, his expression darkened with gloom.
It was because they remembered the reason why they started splitting the giant’s feet in their madness.
“I’m sorry… Anyway, we will avenge your bitter death…”
After the saintess appeared on earth, according to the church’s own verification, there was a limit to the divine power that could be stored even in the body of the saintess.
However, her saintess always received more holy power recovery per hour than her holy power consumption per hour when using her healing spell at the maximum output she could produce.
For this reason, only the saints of successive generations were revered as beings no different from possessing virtually infinite divine power.
However, unless they were daughters of the goddess, that is, saints, the grooms of the goddess had a clear limit to the divine power they could hold in their bodies, and their recovery was much slower than that of the saints.
Because of that, even under the intense pressure of the tree trunk, the Paladins desperately endured by using healing spells on each other, but those whose holy power was depleted died one by one.
Hard!
“It’s like a cursed seed…!”
As soon as they realized that the Paladins were dead, the Inquisitors stopped using healing spells on the paladins and started focusing on amplifying spells all at once.
And it started to bear fruit as it is now.
“Haaaaa!”
Woo woo woo woo!
Oh oh oh oh oh!
Immediately after using the Healing Sacred Method, another amplifying Sacred Method erupts from his body.
While the red aura of the amplification method permeates his body, the Heretic Questioner looks back and appreciates his accomplishments.
There is a fairly long cave, large enough for one person to enter.
Destruction is evidenced by cracks and breaks, sap-soaked tree splinters and sawdust.
The fresh scent of the flesh of the tree comes out as if it were poking your nose.
“Huh…”
With a smile that comes from pride, praise yourself.
“In the name of the Goddess,”
Just as he was about to resume his destruction,
Shrrrr!
“Uh, uh…?”
The entrance to the cave he entered disappears.
A tree trunk growing from the wall begins to fill it up.
Squeak, squeak.
Squeaky.
“Ahhh…”
Seen from the outside, all the caves the Heretic Questioners had dug would have disappeared.
In the blink of an eye, his achievements were undone.
And,
Tup, tut tup!
Woo woo woo woo!
“Uhhhhh!”
Before he had time to move, tree trunks squeezed his body from all directions.
Far from wielding a weapon, the tree trunks press so hard against his body that it is difficult to even breathe.
It wasn’t something special that only happened to him.
“Ughhhhh!”
“Goddess, ah, goddess niii!”
It happened to all the others at the same time, except for one of the 276 heretic inquisitors, Cardinal Cass.
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
Whoaaaaagh!
Hood deuddeuk.
“Puhaaaaap…!”
Only Cardinal Cass escaped from that hell in time.
Due to his overflowing divine power, he was able to escape from the cave before the space to wield his weapon disappeared due to the use of advanced amplification that increased his physical abilities 5 times.
“Two-tweak! Oops, damn it…!”
Spitting out the sawdust in his mouth, Cardinal Cass cursed.
No matter how much I looked around, I couldn’t find any traces of the 276 tree caves.
No, it wouldn’t have been so embarrassing if that was the case.
The reason why the results of their attacks so far went back to nothing is because it never happened once or twice.
However, if there is a difference from the previous situation,
“Everyone, not even one person can come out…!”
It was that all the Heretic Questioners except him were buried in the giant’s flesh.
He looks at the traces of the cave with devastated eyes.
The hole had just been sown with newly sprouted trees, so it had a subtly darker hull compared to the other trees around it.
It must be because it held a little more moisture than the other trees that make up the giant’s skin.
“…”
He was too afraid to call out the names of the Heretic Questioners under his command.
If no answer came back after calling, it was because they had no choice but to admit that they all died.
“The reason why self-repair was stopped was to lure us into the body so that we could be easily captured…”
A voice full of emptiness escapes from his mouth.
If it can speak human words out of context, the being will also have the intelligence to understand the language system.
If so, you might be able to weave the wisdom to wipe out your enemies effectively.
But he, no, all the Heretic Questioners, after seeing the shocking sight of human shoes being weaved, completely forgot the fact that wooden giants could speak human words.
“All of that… Was a deception, a ruse…?”
It was hard to believe.
No, to be precise, I didn’t want to believe that fact.
However, looking back on the past hour or so, there is no way you can’t deny it even if you don’t want to believe it.
Grabbing her comrades and killing them slowly, she stood still blankly.
Having given her body to destruction, she relentlessly restored herself.
The speed at which she restores herself slows down, and the recovery cycle lengthens, giving the Heretic Inquisitors hope and anticipation.
Then, by completely stopping the act of restoration, he allowed the Heretic Questioners to dig into his body without any sense of crisis.
Like that, all the Heretic Questioners except for one were imprisoned in his body.
Even life and death are now unclear.
He and the Heretic Questioner were thoroughly tossed around.
“Kheuuuuu…”
Quickly.
Cardinal Cass swallows Bunru and grinds his teeth.
From the beginning, he made it his profession to exterminate those suspected of heresy, so he is the farthest from benevolence, fraternity, generosity, love, and forgiveness.
Because of that, his expression was solemn and solemn rather than benevolent, and always serious.
However, for now, the usual stiff appearance had completely disappeared.
He was angry, regretful, sad, and resentful.
At that time,
Crap, crap.
Supportive position.
“What, what is this…!”
Suddenly his expression collapses.
Not because of his molars, but because of the sound of something splitting and popping at the giant’s feet.
“Ah, ah ah…!”
His face is colored with hope.
Unable to fall prey to such a crude attack, he judged that everyone else besides him was escaping the Tree Hell alive.
However,
Kudo deuk, kude deudeuk.
Kkeudeudeuk, slither.
“Quaaaaagh!”
“Aaaaa!”
His hopes were shattered and scattered with far more ferocity than they had been revived by a sight far beyond his imagination.
It’s rumbling.
Iron puck.
Hood deuk.
“Chu, Cardinal Yes, grouse…!”
None of the Heretic Questioners died.
But,
Jeruk, jrulruk!
Shudder.
The Heretic Questioners have become creatures that form colonies with tree giants.
The newly sprouted tree trunks tore through their skin and burrowed into the crevices of their muscles.
It tore blood vessels, severed nerves, and pierced bones.
Whoo, whoop whoop!
Whoo, whoo, whoo!
The Heretic Questioners chant healing spells.
It was to escape the pain I was facing right now.
However,
Squeak, squeak
Uzuzz, that is.
Rumble.
“Quaaaaa…!”
“Ghehe…”
“Turn it off…”
An even greater amount of blood oozes out, and the Heretic Questioners scream.
Because trees are starting to take root in their muscles and bones.
Wiggle, wiggle.
Their facial skin, the only one exposed outside, pulsates.
Churrrr.
.
Through their skin, thin, blood-soaked roots poke out of their pores.
On the skin of their faces, something like red worms sprouts.
Oh so so so.
Goosebumps form on Cardinal Cass’ skin.
All over the giant’s feet, the bodies of the Paladins were embedded in Al Al.
In the meantime, the face of the Heretic Questioner, who was still alive and spewing out screams and screams, was revealed.
Animated roots sway over their skin.
In order to show that figure to Cardinal Cass, the giant took out the things buried in the dead skin around the soles of his feet and pulled them out.
As he stared blankly at the scene, staring at it,
Shureuk, Shureuk, Shureuk, Shureuk.
Shrrrr
As if it was his fourth turn this time, thousands of tree trunks sprouted from the giant’s feet.
Previously, 276 people had to deal with it together, but now he faced a situation where he had to deal with them alone.
Finally he
“Uh, uh, uh…”
Even the last will to resist the giant crumbled.
“Aaaaa…!”
Tat tat tat!
He turns his back and runs away.
The direction is uncertain.
He started running recklessly, only to get away from the giant.
Shrew, shruck.
Aaaaa!
Against his back, thousands of plant stems began to wriggle.
Oh oh oh!
A red aura explodes.
It was the first time since Cardinal Cass was appointed as the Heretic Questioner that he had used the amplification method only for escape.
“Khehehehehehe!”
Gurgling.
Patter.
Spraying tears and runny nose, I teased my legs as much as I could.
Following his footsteps, a yellow, smelly liquid was scattered.
It was such an ugly and miserable appearance that if the bride waiting for her first night saw it, all the passions in existence would fall away.
