Raided The God’S Warehouse [EN]: Chapter 267

“You think stalling for time will work? Hahaha, no way! There’s no way to call for help from the management office or Constellations in this Black Sea!”

No matter how desperately Se-un moved his feet, he couldn’t escape Triton’s attacks.

Indeed, a god of the sea.

Even though he had manifested in the tower without any medium and his power was greatly reduced, his strength was far beyond that of a player.

‘This won’t work.’

Realizing that he couldn’t win with speed, Se-un descended deeper into the abyss.

Into the hundreds, thousands of monster corpses piled on the bottom. He went in between them.

콰과과광!!

“Yes, that suits you well! Hiding among corpses and running away!”

Various attacks flying towards Se-un collided with the corpses and disappeared. Even in the already impure water, fragments of bones and flesh spread everywhere.

Still, Se-un had already escaped from there.

He just hoped this would delay Triton’s attack even a little.

‘Surely, it’ll be at the center.’

The goal is the same as the beginning.

The place where the Black Sea’s energy gathers.

The problem is that he doesn’t know where that is, but thanks to the form of the tomb, he could roughly guess its location.

‘The deeper I go, the darker the blue light becomes.’

The darker the blue light, the stronger the energy. Moreover, the level of the corpses was also increasing as he went deeper.

Before he knew it, the surroundings were teeming with giant monsters comparable to the Kraken he had seen on the 39th floor.

쾅, 콰쾅!

Another wave of attacks swept through.

Dodge the attacks he could, and block the attacks he couldn’t with the giant skulls of corpses.

– According to the mysteries of the Black Tower, the power of ‘Aqua Pillar’ is enhanced.

– According to the mysteries of the Black Tower, the casting speed of ‘Aqua Pillar’ is increased.

He used magic to counter the attacks he couldn’t block.

He manipulated the range of his magic to nullify Triton’s attacks and glared at Triton, but he easily scattered the attacks Se-un created with a simple wave of his hand.

“Water magic? Attacking me, the god of the sea, with water magic? Hahahaha! How absurd!”

Was he trying to show the difference in their levels? Triton, who had been showing sharp and monotonous attacks, changed his attack method.

촤르르륵!

The black seawater congealed thickly like tar.

Gradually increasing in size, it took the form of a giant shark and opened its mouth towards Se-un.

It was too huge to escape.

However, if he used water magic, which was the most effective way to block that attack, it seemed likely that it would be immediately scattered by Triton.

Quickly looking around, Se-un raised his right hand and rotated the dark mana circle.

– The Vault of Greed has been opened.

[ Raise Zombie ]

– A magic representing the Necromancer of the Black Tower, it infuses mana to raise corpses.

Se-un first taught it as a way to raise skeletons, but now it has become Baek-hyun’s specialty.

Undead Summoning.

At Se-un’s gesture, the surrounding corpses rose.

Unlike Baek-hyun, unless there was an undead entity acting as Gamigin’s authority or commander, the total number of undead Se-un could raise was six.

However, even if it was six, the corpses around here were high-level monsters that were different from ordinary monsters.

“그어어어-”

“그어어어어-”

콰아아아악!

The shark made of black seawater collided with the zombies Se-un raised.

As expected of the god of the sea, Triton’s attack was incredibly strong, but the zombies tenaciously endured the attack even as their bodies were destroyed.

Even as their fins were torn off, they grabbed the shark’s lower jaw. Even as their torsos were split in two, they grabbed the upper jaw.

A suicidal defense that only zombies could do.

In the end, the bodies of the six zombies were shattered and torn apart, but thanks to that, Triton’s attack could be nullified.

“Raising the dead. You reek of a contract with demons! You have so many tricks!”

However, Triton’s attack was not over.

Two attacks, which had been barely blocked by raising the six giant corpses in the Black Sea, appeared at once.

As Se-un became more familiar with the Black Sea, Triton was also becoming more familiar with manipulating water in the Black Sea.

“그어어어어-”

Se-un’s dark mana circle rotated incessantly, raising the corpses in the tomb.

Clearly, the maximum number that could be raised at once was six, but because they were quickly destroyed and repeatedly resurrected, it seemed as if all the corpses in the tomb were protecting Se-un.

Woong!

In the meantime, Se-un gritted his teeth and circulated the internal energy of his dantian [energy center] to strengthen his body.

It wasn’t easy to endlessly raise six corpses and operate his dantian, but now was not the time to say he couldn’t because it was difficult.

솨아아아!

Although he didn’t turn his head, he could feel Triton’s attack gradually moving away.

As the level of the corpses in the tomb gradually became too high to raise, Se-un naturally felt that he was approaching his destination.

‘I’m almost there……!’

The largest corpse among those seen in the tomb was visible in the distance.

The white bones of a whale, emitting a clear blue light even in the pitch-black Black Sea. The corpse of the legendary monster called the Tyrant in the Sea of Radiance, the White Whale.

He hadn’t arrived yet, but he knew that this guy was the destination.

At that moment.

“You must be thinking you’re almost there……right?”

콰르르르륵-!

The currents sharply twisted before Se-un’s eyes.

If he had pulled his body away even a little later, his chest would have been torn open by the current just now.

Starting with that, the currents raged violently, creating a giant wall in front.

A current wall created not by ordinary magic, but by the power of a god.

A wall created by Triton consuming his divinity.

“Hahaha! That was fun. The sight of a mere player struggling, thinking he could escape from a god.”

In front, there was a violent current that would tear the skin just by touching it, and behind, there were Triton with his trident and giant shark figures made of Black Sea water.

‘Was he just playing with me from the start?’

Well, there’s no way the power of a Constellation would be only this much.

In Pan’s case, he appeared before Se-un in an extremely weakened state, so that was an exception, but Triton was not.

“The sight of you stopped in front of the wall is like watching a rat trapped in the maze of Crete!”

Triton crossed his arms and burst into hearty laughter, as if admiring his captured prey.

Checkmate, huh?

Having finished his amusing entertainment, he seemed to be ending the game now.

Even in the midst of this, Se-un calmly faced the current wall and reddened his stigmata [divine mark].

‘I can do it.’

The power of a god.

In other words, a wall created with the unique divinity possessed as a Constellation.

It was a wall that could never be pierced with ordinary magic or martial arts, but Se-un had other powers besides that.

The Stigmata.

Originally, it only possessed the extremely weak divinity obtained from gods including Pan, but it was a power recognized as a true divinity (新星) [Shining Star] after passing through the Fourth Shelter.

– The Stigmata reacts to the Legend of the Blood Wolf.

– The third ability of the Stigmata, ‘Annihilation,’ awakens.

Even so, the difference in level between Se-un and Triton was as great as heaven and earth.

It was impossible to break Triton’s wall with this level of divinity……but.

‘I can do it.’

Se-un thought again.

A kind of self-hypnosis.

The third ability of the Stigmata, Annihilation.

Originally, this power was created by the Outer and used to defeat the Outer.

However, after coming up to the 40th floor and using the power of Annihilation several times, Se-un felt that the power of Annihilation was not simply about killing the Outer.

Something more fundamental.

Annihilation. As the name suggests, the power to annihilate the enemy.

Whether the opponent was an unidentified being, an Outer. Or a Constellation transcending the present world, a ‘god.’

– That is correct. My master.

크르릉-

The Stigmata emitted light as if exploding.

The light did not simply spread around, but gathered together to form the shape of a wolf.

The wolf with the crimson light he had seen before.

A being that could be said to be the ego of the Stigmata that Se-un possessed.

That being bowed its head, acknowledging Se-un as its true master.

“Tear it apart.”

The crimson wolf bit and pulled at the current wall in front of him.

The current, which would cut the skin like a blade with just a slight touch, was torn apart as lightly as a piece of paper.

“Hahaha! I don’t know what you’re trying to do now, but a mere player is resisting the power of a god……!”

콰직!

The current wall that the wolf bit was torn off even more greatly.

Not only was the bitten area torn off, but the current wall stretched out and was torn off whole.

As violently as if tearing off a curtain.

As Triton said, the current wall created with the ‘power of a god’ was torn apart by the wolf’s teeth and scattered.

“……This can’t be! Th-This can’t be happening! This can’t be!”

Perhaps shocked that the current wall he had created had collapsed, Triton released the sharks made of seawater that had been staying behind him.

When those guys opened their mouths, the view was filled with the inside of their mouths.

Even so, Se-un did not move.

He was just giving a new command to the wolf who had just spat out the current wall.

“Howl.”

– 크아아아앙!

The wolf’s roar filled the Black Sea.

The roar imbued with divinity rippled greatly as soon as it reached the sharks surrounding Se-un, scattering the divinity imbued in the sharks.

Triton’s sharks disappeared as if by a lie.

“N-No way! How can a mere player have my power!”

Triton despaired, denying reality beyond embarrassment.

However, Se-un’s situation was not good either.

‘The consumption of divinity…….’

Only two commands.

With just that, more than half of the divinity imbued in the Stigmata was depleted.

He had been saving the Authority of Frenzy to reach this point in order to use it in a truly urgent moment, so his divinity was completely full, but it was being consumed so quickly…….

At this rate, he would only have one or two commands left at best.

“Bite.”

– I understand. My master.

The wolf rushed towards Triton with a ferocious roar.

It was a threatening charge as if it would tear anything apart, but Se-un could tell. The power of Annihilation was clearly more powerful than expected, but it was still impossible for Se-un to face Triton with his power.

Even though he was shocked and embarrassed by the power of Annihilation that had nullified his power, as soon as he came to his senses, he would surely deal with the wolf and chase after Se-un.

촤르륵!

Se-un stretched out forward without looking back.

The largest corpse in the tomb. The corpse of the White Whale was approaching.

Emitting a dazzling blue light, it was, as Se-un had expected, the source where the most energy was flowing in the Black Sea.

Here, he could install Leviathan’s Sanctuary through the Orb.

And for a very brief moment, he might be able to summon the Demon God of Jealousy, ‘Leviathan.’
