Chapter 196
Chapter 196 - Calling Heroes (4)
Kwajik!
A terrifying sound erupted from the half-moon twin blades Risbery wielded.
cooong!
Before long, the model of Cyclops collapsed and the ground shook.
Known as the one-eyed giant, this monster is an 11-star monster.
It was a monster at a level that even most S-class hunters could not easily handle.
However, Risbery cut down Cyclops without much difficulty.
Demon Hunter Lisberry.
He was a cataclysmic hero who killed countless demons during the cataclysm in the past.
And now, he was more known as the director of the Mi Pro Hunter Administration.
“It’s almost over.”
Risbury looked around slowly and nodded.
The scene is getting sorted out.
There were still monsters left, but professional hunters belonging to the administration were handling them without difficulty.
It seemed like there was no need to go out.
Lisbery brushed off the blood from the half-moon twin blades.
Then he spat out words to the walkie-talkie.
“As of the current time, the situation is over. Please see the special details.”
Risbury looked at the radio for a moment.
But nothing came from the radio.
“Looks like everything else is organized.”
Risbury then put the walkie-talkie into his chest.
Then he took out a cigarette from his pocket and asked.
profit.
Whoa.
Thoughts pierced through with thick smoke blooming.
‘Colin's been smashed to pieces...'
I came here to deal with the sudden distortion, so I couldn't see the scene.
However, word came quickly from Lucas that Colin had been crushed.
At the same time, it was also known that an enormous expenditure of 50 billion dollars was incurred in return.
“To pay 50 billion dollars for my life.”
In fact, Risbery found Seo-Jun's request for 50 billion dollars more absurd than the fact that Colin was destroyed.
To be honest, Risberry had the intention of using Colin to see what level Seo-joon was.
That's why I didn't stop Colin.
Isn't it like being in trouble, let alone seeing the liver?
‘I should have stopped Colin.'
The smoke that was exhaled became thicker today.
It was overspending, but Risbury did not blame Lucas.
Even to Risbury, Lucas' judgment was appropriate.
He just blamed himself for not stopping Colin.
‘There's nothing I've seen too lightly.'
That would be the case, Colin was a skillful person who was not inferior at all even compared to himself.
It wasn't called the Spear Master for nothing.
Colin thought he could see at least the liver.
However, I couldn't even use the side and the catfish was gone.
that means that.
It meant that he wasn't very different from himself.
“How much of a monster do you mean?”
Risberry couldn't even guess what level Seo-joon would be.
Whoa....
Only the half-burned cigarette represented Risbury's feelings.
Right then.
- Chief! It's a big deal!
Suddenly, an urgent voice burst from the radio.
Risbury smoked a cigarette and pulled the radio out of her bosom with one hand.
“What is going on?”
-It is reported that a lich has appeared in Logan's area now!
“what?”
Risberry spat out the cigarette in her mouth.
Lisberry, the hero of Cataclysm.
It was because he knew the danger of the lich better than anyone else.
“I will leave right now!”
So Risbury moved without hesitation.
And again it was just then.
Tiri-ri-ring!
This time, the phone's ringtone rang in my arms.
I thought about ignoring it, but since it was a call from a direct hotline, I only checked the caller first.
It was none other than Deputy Director Lucas.
Lisberry shouted as soon as she pressed the call button.
“Lucas! I'm busy right now, so call me later if it's not urgent!”
-It looks like Hunter Kim Seo-joon is heading there!
“what?”
Risbury felt like she was going crazy for a moment.
Why is Seojun Kim here?
No, if you're going beyond that, you're going.
What else does ‘seems to be going' mean?
-Suddenly, he asked me to take a picture of the scene with his smartphone and jumped out of the car!
what else is that?
Risbury couldn't understand what Lucas was saying at first.
But there was neither the time nor the mind to ask.
“I get it!”
Risbury gave a rough answer and hurriedly ran to the scene.
The scene where we arrived.
“What is this…?”
Risbury couldn't believe what was unfolding before her eyes.
A landscape of a world split in half.
This was not a landscape that humans could create.
The world split in two?
space collapses?
Risbury thought over thought.
However, I couldn't find words to fully describe the scene in front of me.
Lisbery glanced around slowly, dazed.
And I was able to find Logan who was making a similar expression to himself.
“Logan?”
“iced coffee?”
At Risbury's words, Logan made a grotesque expression.
Soon after, he spotted Risberry approaching and tilted his head.
“Chief? Why are you here?”
“Why are you here?”
Risbury said nothing.
“How is this now? Richie?”
“That's it...”
Logan gave Risbury a brief explanation of what had happened.
“What nonsense...!”
“I saw it with my own eyes, but I can’t believe it either.”
Logan shook his head.
Risbury was again at a loss for words.
Risbury slowly looked away.
At the end of the open front was an Asian.
It was not difficult to see that he was Seo-jun.
But for whatever reason.
Seo-joon had his skull on his side.
He had a smile on his face as to what was so good about it.
Even in that position, he was rummaging through a pile of bones.
“What is that doing?”
“Actually… I don’t know. I've been doing that ever since.”
Risbury and Logan blankly watched the bizarre behavior.
But why?
Seo-joon's smiling expression began to harden.
#
‘No.'
Seo-jun couldn't dig through the pile of bones and dismantled them.
but it was not visible
Seojun raised Chiron's senses to the limit.
Even so, Beserk's magical power was not felt at all.
‘Beserk's heart has disappeared.'
Seo-joon felt his heart sink.
Could it be that they perished together with the thunder god spear?
Seojun shook his head.
It couldn't have been.
I don't know if it's a type 1 universal collapse.
There was no way that Beserk's power would be destroyed by the thunder god spear.
It is true that the power of the thunder god spear is enormous.
However, it was nothing compared to the collapse of the universe.
At the same time, it wasn't that Beserk's power couldn't withstand that much.
Because Beserk's heart literally contained the full power of Beserk.
‘But there is no heart.'
Seojun calmly organized his thoughts.
Numerous concepts were complicatedly intertwined and the situation was sorted out.
Before long, Insight[S] suggested a strong possibility.
“Life Force Vessel....”
The Life Force Vessel was the crystal that stored the life force of the lich.
Therefore, as long as the Life Force Vessel is not destroyed, the lich will be resurrected endlessly.
However, Seo-joon was able to hit Lich with the longinus spear that pierces reality.
Seo-joon has not yet reached the stage of fa-gyeong.
Because of that, he couldn't bring out the full ability of Longinus' Spear.
But he thought he could kill the lich with that alone.
“Did Beserk's heart be absorbed by the Life Force Vessel, not the lich?”
If only this guy was an ordinary lich.
If that were the case, the Life Force Vessel would have been damaged, but it would not have been able to break it.
Although Longinus's spear was a transcendental weapon,
Beserk's power was not something to be ignored.
Above all, it seemed that Seo-joon had not yet reached the stage of fa-jing, so he could not completely break it.
Because of that, Beserk's heart seemed to return to the Lich's Life Force Vessel.
“...... It's a pity.”
A great sense of disappointment swept over me. It was because he had high expectations
that if he asked Hwa-ta to boil Beserk's heart,
he would be able to drink an elixir that would never exist again in the world.
But it didn't matter much.
Because Beserk's heart didn't disappear.
Bonamana was supposed to be reviving the lich somewhere.
So, all you had to do was find the Life Force Vessel and extract Beserk's heart.
Of course, finding the Life Force Vessel was not an easy task.
The Life Force Vessel was the life of the Lich.
Of course, hide it where you can't easily find it.
There are two days left until the hero is summoned.
In the meantime, there's nothing to do.
It was enough to find it slowly.
If you can't find the right one, it wasn't bad to take a power lecture at all.
After entering the realm of Fa-Qing (發勁).
If the lich with Beserk's heart reappears, then you can just get rid of it.
At that time, the ability of the Longinus Spear could be fully demonstrated, so the Life Force Vessel could be completely destroyed.
Then Beserk's heart would remain, along with the lich's pile of bones.
And right.
“for a moment.”
That was when I thought about it.
Seo-joon's body froze at the sudden thought.
Soon, his expression hardened.
“shit!”
Seojun turned his head around.
#
In the unknown mountains of America.
There was an unknown cave located there.
From the outside, it was an ordinary landscape that did not even know there was a cave.
But it seems like you already know everything.
Someone found the entrance to the cave and went inside Turban.
Inside the cave was pitch-black darkness without a single light.
At the same time, Saihan's magical energy was felt throughout the cave.
Barrier magic. It was all because of this
that the cave was not visible from the outside and
that mana was not felt at all.
The being that entered the cave, the great voice moved its steps.
Even if it's darkness where you can't see an inch ahead.
There was no hesitation in his steps.
When we reached the end of the cave, there was a huge purple crystal placed there.
The purple crystal looked cracked here and there for some reason.
It wouldn't be strange if it broke right away.
Far from breaking, the crystal was emitting a more intense light.
The great voice moved closer and confirmed the crystal.
Inside the crystal was something of a dark red shape, Beserk's heart.
The magical energy from the heart was maintaining the shape of the crystal.
【Am I about to start?】
The great voice was standing there.
There was nothing to worry about.
There is only one thing that takes it.
The only invisible variable.
An uncertainty that even the observer cannot perceive.
perhaps.
I might change my fate again this time.
Because he's always been like that.
however.
Even if you twist your fate.
Even if you get out of all these bridle.
【Can you create other possibilities?】
The great voice shook its head slowly.
impossible.
It was literally the realm of the impossible.
That's why the great voice chose the path of the end.
Because that's the only possibility.
And right now.
This will be the starting point.
The great voice looked at the purple crystal.
A Lich's Life Force Vessel that contains Beserk's heart.
It's not the lich that's sleeping inside.
Exactly, it was a lich, but an existence that could not be called a lich.
It was the end.
Will I be able to escape fate this time?
well.
【Perhaps... the meeting with you may not come true.】
The great voice slowly turned its back and left the cave.
and not long after
pounding!
Beserk's heart in the crystal started beating wildly.
#
Seojun turned his head and looked around.
Before long, he could find an old man and a man looking at him.
Seojun burst into TRP's swiftness and moved in front of them.
“......!!”
“......!!”
The sudden appearance of Seo-jun opened the eyes of the two.
However, Seo-joon had no time to pay attention to the reaction of the two.
One o'clock is urgent.
Seojun immediately opened his mouth.
“Are you Lisberry, the director of the Pro Hunter Administration?”
At Seojun's words, Risberry nodded slowly.
Risbury was so startled that he couldn't remember why he was being communicated without an interpreter.
Seo-joon gave Risbury a brief explanation of the situation.
Of course, questions that could not be explained right now were roughly passed.
I didn't know the details right now.
There was no time to leisurely explain.
Beserk's heart, which Seo-joon saw, had tremendous power condensed.
It was on a different level from the incomplete Beserk that Seo-joon faced in England.
Literally the full power of Beserk.
And if the Life Force Vessel absorbed that power, the lich would be resurrected soon after.
As long as the Life Force Vessel was not destroyed,
the Lich was immortal. The problem
was that he knew of Seo-jun's existence and powerlessness
by dying to him once .
At the same time, he also knows that he cannot defeat Seo-joon at his current level.
so.
“Probably won't show up even after being resurrected.”
That is, until I can fully use Beserk's power.
If you can fully use the power of Beserk like that...
A terrible being that will never exist again in the world will be born.
Apocalypse that can neither kill nor die.
There was no time to slow down.
It was not the time to relax.
You must find it as soon as possible.
We must find and destroy it before it fully absorbs its power.
Seo-joon and his teammates alone could not quickly search this vast American land.
To trust Chiron's senses, there could be something to dazzle them.
Beserk's magic was enough to do that.
So, the hero summons that was scheduled for 2 days later.
Seo-joon shouted at Risberry.
“We need to summon our heroes right now.”
