Raided The God’S Warehouse [EN]: Chapter 364

Stole the Demon God’s Armory – Episode 368

Three Death Knights.

They wore menacing full plate armor and rode black-tainted death horses.

They weren’t as massive as other monsters, but their presence was incomparably powerful.

And that wasn’t all.

“Arise.”

“Soldiers.”

“Raise your swords.”

As if proving they were ‘commanders,’ they summoned their subordinate soldiers.

Skeletons crawled out from under the ground with clattering sounds.

Not just the lowest-ranking skeletons with only bones left, but skeleton soldiers equipped with old but proper gear.

They were only slightly weaker than the typical monsters in the field, but it was a different story when commanded by Death Knights.

“Two enemies.”

“Form an encirclement.”

“Raise your shields. Pressure the enemy.”

The skeletons abandoned their unique undead nature of plundering life and followed the Death Knights’ commands.

In an instant, formations were set up, and they surrounded Seun and Choi Soo-chang.

Despite being overwhelmingly outnumbered, the Death Knights were not careless at all.

“One Death Knight… or rather, can you hold off these skeletons?”

He didn’t think they would lose, but he anticipated a rather tricky battle.

He was worried about protecting Choi Soo-chang, so he tried to entrust the skeletons to him, but Choi Soo-chang shook his head.

He had always nodded at Seun’s words, so he wondered what was wrong, but soon a new opinion came from his mouth.

“I will assist Master.”

“Assist?”

“Yes. Perhaps that would be more helpful.”

“I don’t know much about Soo-chang’s skills yet, so it will be difficult to coordinate.”

“It doesn’t matter. Just fight as you normally do, and I will assist accordingly.”

Since joining Choi Soo-chang, Seun had been clearing monsters so quickly that he hadn’t had a chance to show his skills.

This was also why Seun hadn’t tried to join forces with the guild members.

He knew that he was strong enough to hunt the owner of the source alone. He had roughly figured out what abilities he used.

But he hadn’t been able to confirm his fighting style.

Normally, he wouldn’t even think of entrusting assistance to someone who didn’t match well.

“I understand.”

Seun nodded.

He couldn’t keep recalling his memories from before the regression and distrusting people forever. At least he had to trust the Diablo Guild.

He could defeat an Outer alone, but he couldn’t protect the entire tower alone.

No matter how much he struggled and hunted Outers alone, if the Constellations were all devoured and the players were corrupted, Seun would be finished as well.

The start of the battle was, as expected…

– According to the mysteries of the Red Tower, the range of ‘Turn Undead’ is expanded.

– According to the mysteries of the White Tower, the attribute power of ‘Turn Undead’ is increased.

Flash!

It was necessary to clear out the skeletons forming the encirclement with large shields first.

As the brilliant light flashed, the skeletons closest to him were reduced to dust and scattered.

“Raise your shields!”

“Protect your comrades!”

“Give your lives!”

Yet the Death Knights’ instructions did not stop.

In response, the skeletons raised their shields even higher, shielding the skeletons behind them from the light.

Although the skeletons in the front were being destroyed, the skeletons in the back steadily thrust their spears and charged.

If they were humans, it would have been considered tremendous camaraderie, but they were simply following orders.

As Seun was about to prepare his next attack, seeing the spears flying towards him.

“Don’t worry about them. Just… keep moving forward.”

– Player Choi Soo-chang uses ‘Tidal Surge of Dawn’.

Whoosh-!

A stream of water erupted from Choi Soo-chang’s feet.

The waves surged and swept through the enemy lines, and the skeletons holding shields in the front lost their balance and fell.

The same went for the skeletons thrusting their spears.

Most importantly, the collapse of the front lines meant that the light of Turn Undead was affecting the skeletons in the rear as well.

‘Not bad.’

He could see why he wanted to assist.

Seun, assured by Choi Soo-chang’s words, moved forward even more aggressively.

Even though more than half of the skeletons were still alive, he trusted him and advanced towards the Death Knights.

“Block them!”

“Your lives!”

“Sacrifice!”

The three Death Knights sat on their magnificent death horses, doing nothing but giving orders to the skeletons.

If their soldiers were people instead of skeletons, he would have felt sorry for them.

Seun lowered his stance and weaved through the skeletons.

Then, new skeletons rose from the bone fragments of the skeletons that had just been struck by Turn Undead.

‘Skeletons are just expendable anyway.’

In a battle of this scale, it was important to clearly identify the target to attack.

Naturally, that target was the three Death Knights controlling the skeletons from afar.

Even though he lowered his stance, he was still passing through the skeletons, so various spears, swords, and sharp bone hands stabbed at Seun.

Swish!

Streams of water rose on either side of Seun, creating a path.

Perfect assistance.

The path to the Death Knights was completely open.

– Through internal energy, the third form of the Blood Wolf Sword Technique, Blood Wolf Assault, is enhanced.

Clang!

Seun, running down the clearly opened path, jumped and swung Durandal.

Most ordinary monsters couldn’t withstand Seun’s first attack and were cut in half, but this one blocked Seun’s sword, proving its level.

“A skilled warrior!”

“But the living can never!”

“Kill the dead!”

The Death Knight in front of him grabbed Seun’s blade with a gauntlet-clad hand.

Then, the Death Knights on either side swung their swords at Seun.

Seun scoffed at the Death Knight who thought he had blocked the attack by grabbing Durandal’s blade and released his hand from the sword.

Even if it had been before, blocking the sword was meaningless to Seun, who had obtained the Myriad Poisons’ Inhibition [immunity to a wide range of poisons].

Swish-

A dagger popped out of subspace.

Large or long weapons would only be a hindrance, as he was stuck between three Death Knights.

The weapon was created, but attacks were coming from both sides simultaneously. Moreover, all of those attacks were surrounded by aura, so they couldn’t be easily deflected.

But even so, Seun abandoned defense, swung the dagger, and said.

“Soo-chang.”

Shwaaa!

A harpoon that pierced through the floor pierced the Death Knight’s wrist.

The rope connected to the harpoon became taut, and the Death Knight fell from the death horse without being able to resist.

This was because his balance was easily broken as he was swinging his sword.

In the end, there was only one Death Knight swinging his sword at Seun.

He lightly twisted his upper body, deflected the enemy’s sword with the dagger, and swung the dagger at him as it was.

His entire body was armed with full plate armor, but the Compass of Journey accurately pinpointed the subtle gap where the chest plate connected to the neck.

Thwack!

“In the hands of the living…”

He kicked the enemy, who was trying to swing his weapon until the moment he died, with the dagger still stuck in the gap.

Turning around, he saw two Death Knights regaining their senses and emitting aura.

At that moment, dozens of harpoons rose from the floor simultaneously.

– Player Choi Soo-chang uses ‘Kraken’s Hunt’.

Thwack thwack thwack!

More than half of the launched harpoons were deflected.

Even those that hit mostly struck the death horses, which were not wearing armor.

However, the horror of attacks using harpoons was not just about simple attack power.

The harpoons, which were swaying like the legs of a kraken, spun around and wrapped around the Death Knights’ bodies.

The ropes became surprisingly taut, completely binding the two Death Knights’ bodies.

– Player Choi Soo-chang uses ‘Noon Ebb’.

Then, the harpoons stuck in the death horses sucked the moisture out of the death horses like parasites.

Death horses couldn’t have blood, but the technique Choi Soo-chang used seemed to be more than just sucking out moisture.

The death horses withered away like mummies in an instant and collapsed.

The Death Knights on top couldn’t be completely free from the attack either, and it was visible that their bodies were becoming parched.

“The attacks of the living!”

“To the dead!”

Still, as if trying to prove their level, they swelled up their bodies, cut all the ropes, and deflected the harpoons.

However, what came into the Death Knights’ view immediately after that was.

– The Saintly Imprint reacts to the tale of the Blood Wolf Legend.

– The second ability of the Saintly Imprint, ‘Rage,’ awakens.

Covered in crimson light.

– Through internal energy, the fifth form of the Five Dragons Gait, Red Dragon Gnawing Tooth, is enhanced.

It was the figure of Seun wielding a massive double-edged axe.

The double-edged axe accurately pried into the seams between the full plate armor and violently dug into that narrow space.

The first Death Knight’s head flew off, and the second Death Knight tried to resist, but.

“I’ve got… them.”

Swoosh-

The harpoon that rose from the ground again pierced and pulled the enemy’s wrist, and Seun’s axe fell straight onto his head.

The bodies of the three beheaded Death Knights writhed to revive again, but Seun immediately used white magic to annihilate them.

The battle ended too early and too easily than expected.

“Amazing?”

“You flatter me.”

– Constellation, ‘Sparkling Scales,’ is greatly satisfied.

No matter how he thought about it, the key to this battle was Choi Soo-chang.

He didn’t have overwhelming power like Kang Chul, nor did he possess quick movements like Yoo Seo-ah.

His actual combat ability itself might be lacking, but his support ability was so outstanding that it couldn’t be compared to Kang Chul or Yoo Seo-ah.

This was the first time they had worked together, and it was already this good.

With this kind of ability, he thought that he could create tremendous synergy effects not only with Seun but also with other guild members.

– The source of the dead, ‘The Three Knights of the End,’ has been successfully conquered.

– Additional points are awarded to the trial ‘Resting Place of the Dead’.

As the Death Knights disappeared, the skeletons that had been following them also collapsed naturally.

When he used the Authority of Gluttony, more stats than he expected were absorbed, and a message appeared that Beelzebub was pleased.

It seemed that he was crunching and chewing even the solid full plate armor.

He had definitely said that he would save food for the next resting place, but looking at the message, it didn’t seem like that at all.

“It seems like… that’s the place.”

“It looks like it.”

As expected, the place where those three Death Knights were was the last source.

He was able to arrive at his final destination not long after following the flow.
