Chapter 393 – Episode 393 – Academy (40)
Episode 393 – Academy (40)
Helena, who was staring out her window with a serious expression, snapped her fingers.
I looked over the horizon through a mirror that appeared in the air and saw a strange sight.
-Keeeee!
-Kyaak!
Monsters were fighting among themselves. They ate each other like animals thrown into a cage.
‘···What is that.’
Monsters also have their own ecosystem. They fight with each other and form food chains.
However, that only happens when there is no one around. Even monsters that fight each other to the death, when they find a human, they attack as if they were one body. Burning endless hatred.
But these monsters were different. Instead of charging towards the wall, we fought among ourselves. It was like seeing a soldier who had lost his commander.
“Why?”
I stared blankly at the strange, incomprehensible sight and shook my head in horror. I was curious why, but other things were more important right now.
I immediately got up from my seat and headed up the castle wall. She did a final inspection of her East Gate section of the Northern Wall.
‘···How many of these will survive?’
Soldiers can be seen glaring at monsters from the top of the castle wall. Tension and fear. They were each holding their weapons tightly with various expressions.
At that time, I was looking around at the soldiers. An escort and secretary who joined in the middle. Tasha told her.
“The friends who came from the academy have joined the magic army.”
Helena paused and narrowed her eyes.
“Friend···? “Could it be Amelia?”
“Yes. “Him and Kang Hyeon-ah.”
Helena pursed her lips as if she was about to say something, but frowned.
“···Not a friend.”
“Um… Is that so?”
Tasha, who was squinting, nodded her head. It was an expression of complete disbelief, so she just sighed.
‘Not friends.’
Rather, it was closer to a competitor.
A naughty woman who captivates Siwoo with huge breasts that don’t match her innocent face. When she thought of Amelia, her lips twitched in a bow.
‘A girl like a fox.’
She remembered that two days ago, when she had run into him at the barrier, she had whimpered and asked Siu where he had gone, and her appetite was sour. She had a hard time reassuring me that I would just take care of urgent business in China and she would be back soon.
In fact, she wanted to show that she was honestly worried like Amelia, but she couldn’t do that. Because she was a commander leading the soldiers.
‘···It’s okay. Let’s focus on the monsters for now.’
Helena, shaking off her tension with a light thought, turned her gaze. The monsters that were fighting each other near the horizon gradually approached the barrier.
-Keeeee!
Small monsters pushed back by the fight rushed towards the castle wall looking for a place to escape, and the predators that were eating them followed.
Helena, who was measuring the distance to her monster, parted her lips.
“Start shooting.”
The moment she muttered softly into her microphone.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
A violent explosion shook the entire fortress. Large turrets installed on the castle walls spewed out flames. The overwhelming firepower pouring out thousands of rounds per minute pulverized the monsters.
“Waaaaa!!”
“Fucking monsters! “Everyone die!”
The excited soldiers shouted like crazy. It was an instinctive act to forget fear and increase morale.
Unlike them, Helena just quietly took a breath. A commander always had to have a cold heart.
Kwaaaaang!!
At that time, the entire plain became a sea of fire due to the barrage of missiles.
-Pooooo!
At the same time as a strange crying sound, flames draw a spiral. It gathered into one point like a whirlpool and was sucked into the mouth of a huge monster.
“It’s impossible!”
Attention was drawn to someone’s magical shout. The 10-meter-tall monster, which looked like a mix between an elephant and a dog, trembled happily.
The bulgogi, which had been absorbing the flames as if they were delicious food, suddenly looked away. He took a lick while looking at the wall and immediately kicked the ground.
Thump thump thump!
The ground shakes as if there was an earthquake.
A monster the size of a building charged into the fortress, swinging its whip-like nose. Thousands of armor-piercing bullets were fired, but they failed to cause even a small wound.
“The magic army. “Curse type casting.”
At the same time as Helena’s command. A purple thunderbolt strikes Bulgasal. The guy who was charging at me without hesitation stumbled for a moment.
-Pooooo?
He shook his head as if he was embarrassed, but he fell down and couldn’t get up.
Furthermore···
Phew! Blood poured from the guy’s body. Armor-piercing bullets that could not even cause damage just a moment ago began to lodge in the skin.
The wriggling guy tried to run away, but his entire body became a hive and he died instantly.
“Waaaaa!”
Helena’s complexion brightened slightly at the cheers of her soldiers.
The scariest thing about monsters was their blind killing intent toward sub-humans, but these monsters did not have that.
Since she had no malicious intent to cause even the slightest damage even if she died, she had some room to attack and was able to stop it.
She nodded and was shocked.
‘···Let’s relax.’
The monster wave has just begun. Being careless always comes as a painful loss. As a commander, he should not have relaxed.
“Uh?”
Was it a reward for relieving tension for a moment?
Her eyes widened as she conducted. Her eyes darted to the ridges on her forearms. In the distance, something pure white flapped its wings and flew towards the fortress.
-Gwaaaaah!
The magical roar made some of the weak soldiers foam and fall to the ground.
“Bone Dragon!”
Someone shouted in fear. A huge dragon made of bones. A 9-star demon called Disaster has appeared.
In addition, the skeleton wizard riding on top of him, the Arch Elder Lich, was also a monster of a similar level to the Bone Dragon.
The moment the lich stretched out his bright yellow crystal staff.
Goooooh.
Bone Dragon’s ribs swelled significantly. The monster that was gathering magic opened its mouth, as if taking a breath.
Kwaaaaang!
The dragon’s breath, said to melt everything, poured out. A black-green breath flew towards the barrier.
Helena, who was urgently activating the defensive magic circle installed on the barrier, stopped.
“Ah!”
A middle-aged man sticking out of thin air. Her father, Kairan Eihern, Grand Duke of the North, cut off his breath with a single sword.
Quaaaaang!
He immediately rushed at Bone Dragon and clashed with him. I faced the disaster-level monsters Bone Dragon and Arch Lich at the same time, but I was not pushed back.
“Waaaaa!”
“The Grand Duke of the North has arrived!”
Master of the Wall. The soldiers cheered at the appearance of the Transcendent.
With that momentum, the turret burst into flames. He poured out magic bullets towards the monsters that came in like waves.
How much time has passed? The red-hot gun barrels melted and the soldiers gasped from exhaustion.
But even so, the number of monsters did not decrease. Rather, it continued to increase.
Quaaaaang!
A mine placed on the ground explodes and a plume of earth rises.
-Kyaaaaa!
The dust cleared and a monster the size of a building was revealed. It was a death worm that looked like a magnified version of an earthworm.
A huge body over 100 meters long blocked the sunlight. Part of the wall became dark.
Kwasik!
Helena, who was staring at the death worm with a frown, raised her wand.
“Blizzard.”
At the same time as a soft chant. The temperature, which was full of heat, rapidly drops.
Damn it!
A pure white wind swept across the battlefield, and sharp pieces of ice swept across the plain. In an instant, the frozen monsters were unable to resist and were shattered into pieces, scattering everywhere.
Kwakwakwak! Quang!
Cannonballs rained down on the Death Worm, which was frozen like a statue, but its response was weak.
-Gwaaaaah!
It began to wriggle its frozen body and roar. It seemed as if the huge body was twisting and about to rush forward.
‘Ah.’
Helena frowned. It was a monster that was tougher and harder than I expected.
Ugh!
The magic circle on the castle wall was activated. He controlled his swirling magic and licked his lips.
“Hellfire.”
I casted the highest flame magic called Hell’s Flame, which is said to never go out once it sticks.
Just before pointing the wand at Death Worm and activating the magic.
“···Uh?”
Helena stopped and looked up at the sky without realizing it. I was drawn to her strange presence and couldn’t resist.
I stared blankly at the blazing sun.
An unknown energy contained in the dazzling sunlight enveloped my entire body. My whole body trembled with a chill, but I wasn’t afraid. On the contrary, I was so happy that my eyes widened.
“···Siwoo?”
Strangely, I could feel him in the sun.
Helena, who was muttering while looking at the sky, was shocked. She turns a blind eye during battle. It was a fatal mistake that she would have nothing to say even if she died.
She hurriedly lowered her gaze, and she couldn’t help but be surprised.
“This···?”
It was truly a strange moment. The entire plain, which had been in the midst of a fierce war, was immersed in silence for a moment.
She wasn’t the only one raising her head. Right now at this moment. Everyone on the plain was looking up at the sky blankly. And that too with her mouth open with a mesmerized expression.
Monsters without even a trace of reason were no exception.
Everything from the charging death worms to the four-legged beasts that filled the plains. Everyone stopped moving while looking at the sky.
-Krrrr…
The monsters that were standing there growled belatedly.
She attacked towards the sky as if struggling or curled her tail as if she was scared. Although their reactions varied, their endings were all the same.
Grumble!
Like ice on a grill. At one point, it began to melt in the sunlight.
