Raided The God’S Warehouse [EN]: Chapter 514

514. Looting the Demon God’s Warehouse

Skavde’s layout was more square than circular.

As expected, the ramparts were divided into four sections—east, west, south, and north—and the siege was managed according to these divisions.

Currently, the Diablo Guild members were lined up along Skavde’s eastern rampart.

“I’m not sure I’m qualified to lead. I’m practically the youngest here in terms of experience.”

“Haha, experience doesn’t matter. Your ability and awareness make you the best choice after Seo-ah.”

“But…”

“Seo-ah asked you directly, and everyone agreed. Have some confidence.”

Go Chang-seok patted Harry Kane on the back.

The reason for this was Yoo Seo-ah, the usual leader of the Diablo Guild’s battles, was absent.

She had left the east gate, entrusting command to Harry.

Even with Go Chang-seok’s encouragement, Harry felt uneasy. Then, he heard voices around him.

“Harry, we’re counting on you!”

“Just do what you always do! You’ve given us instructions plenty of times before, right?”

“That’s right. The Vice Guild Master even said that Harry is better suited for command.”

The Diablo Guild…

Most of them had been together since the early days of the tutorial, treating each other like family, but Harry’s situation was a bit different.

Floor 36 of the Tower, Pirate Island.

The Diablo Guild had rescued Harry from enslavement by pirates there.

Se-un, who was usually wary of outsiders, formally accepted Harry into the guild because he worked hard to repay their kindness.

After that, Harry was chosen by the 57th-ranked Demon King, Ose, allowing him to reach this point.

The longer he stayed, the more he felt like he was accumulating debts rather than repaying them.

Because of that, Harry always saw the Diablo Guild as benefactors he had to serve.

“I see them. Give the orders.”

But the Diablo Guild members didn’t see Harry as a slave or someone who owed them.

Harry was family to them, too.

The moment Kang Chul-han spoke, Harry’s eyes flashed.

“…Lord Ose.”

– The constellation, ‘Leopard with Red Spots,’ growls softly.

Red spots appeared on Harry’s body.

His pupils turned green, shining fiercely like a wild beast’s eyes in the night.

– Player Harry Kane accepts the ‘Gaze of the Red Leopard.’

Finally, he received Ose’s power.

The red spots and green eyes signified Ose’s divinity.

The entire situation before him entered his fiercely gleaming pupils.

However, even with Ose’s authority, he couldn’t understand everything he saw.

No matter how good someone’s eyesight is, they can’t comprehend everything in their field of vision.

‘Stay calm.’

Harry took a slow, deep breath.

The numerous trials he had received from Ose were not meaningless.

Until now, he couldn’t be sure of their meaning, but now he understood.

Ose’s trials were for this very moment.

“The number of monsters visible on the horizon is approximately 2,500. The forces on the right appear stronger. Kang Chul-han, take care of them.”

“Understood.”

“We will shift the formation. Ah-reum and Down, set up barriers to prevent the enemy from spreading to other ramparts.”

“Okay!”

“That’s easy!”

The Diablo Guild’s formation quickly adapted to match the enemy’s strength.

No one doubted Harry’s orders, and no one disobeyed.

Although the east gate was closest to the ‘real’ south gate and faced the second-largest number of monsters, none of them considered defeat.

They were only about fifty, but they weren’t afraid even when facing 2,500 enemies.

‘This is a new way for me to repay the kindness I’ve received.’

– The constellation, ‘Leopard with Red Spots,’ proudly displays its claws.

Harry took out the longbow hanging on his back.

A bow and arrow made of meteorites, specially crafted by Go Chang-seok for use against the Outer Gods.

“Grrr…”

Moreover, the red leopard standing next to him was also equipped with gear made of meteorites.

“Battle, begin.”

KWAH-!!!

The moment Kang Chul-han threw a punch, the rough desert sand soared like a tornado.

With this signal, the full-scale siege of Skavde began.

* * *

“I can see them now.”

“Those black things… are those the Outer Gods?”

“Yes.”

Yoo Seo-ah nodded at Zenon’s question.

The Cheonghae Guild possessed great strength.

Even though half of their guild members had left after their defeat against Diablo, they still had twice as many members as Diablo.

Excluding Se-un, they were equal to, or perhaps even stronger than, Diablo.

“You’ve all understood their characteristics, right?”

“Yes, I’ve made sure all guild members are aware.”

However, even the Cheonghae Guild had never faced the Outer Gods before.

Fortunately, they trusted the Diablo Guild’s words and actions after their experience in the Demon Realm, so they didn’t doubt the information about the Outer Gods.

Thanks to that, all Cheonghae Guild members had learned about the Outer Gods and were properly preparing for battle.

“We’ve also made sure to wear the equipment.”

The equipment the Cheonghae Guild members were wearing now wasn’t the usual blue armor.

Go Chang-seok had designed new light armor to suit Cheonghae’s combat style, but their current equipment wasn’t even that.

It was equipment made of meteorites.

Equipment made from the meteorites that Se-un had brought from Elheim.

“You can only inflict damage by attacking with weapons made of meteorites or by manifesting power with equipment made of meteorites. You must only receive damage with armor or shields made of meteorites.”

“Yes, we’ve already memorized it.”

“You must never let your guard down. If you get contaminated, it’s over.”

“We can tell just by looking at those monsters. I think all of our guild members are feeling a proper sense of crisis.”

Someone could be heard swallowing nervously nearby.

The monsters appeared beyond the undulating horizon of the desert.

They were all covered in black liquid, making gurgling noises.

It was a bit vague when they heard the explanation, but seeing the monsters contaminated by the Outer Gods directly, they fully understood what it meant.

“And, a combat style that blocks and taunts the enemy’s movements is also Cheonghae’s specialty.”

BOOOOO-!!

A blue wave rippled next to Zenon.

The wave twisted space and opened up, transforming into the entrance of his blue subspace.

Inside, his White Whale, which they had seen in the guild war, cried out powerfully as if it had been waiting.

The cry was so loud that the approaching monsters momentarily flinched.

At the same time.

WHOOSH!!

A blue stream of water gushed out from the subspace.

The White Whale’s water fountain spread endlessly, falling towards the sand of the desert.

“Is that really possible? This is a desert.”

“If it were ordinary water, would it be able to fill the residential area? This stream itself is my divinity, the wave of the Divine Sea imbued with Lord Poseidon’s power.”

Zenon’s words were not false.

No matter how much rain falls in the desert, the moisture cannot accumulate and flows under the sand.

However, the stream of water that the White Whale spewed out created puddles on the sand.

The puddles gradually grew in size, becoming small ponds and creating beautiful lakes.

The stream of water, curving along the desert terrain, transformed into a river, and a massive river began to form at Skavde’s west gate.

“I’ll help too.”

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

Choi Soo-chang’s stream of water was added to the stream of water that the White Whale was spewing out.

The stream of water that Choi Soo-chang spewed out was also a stream of water imbued with divinity. Although the attributes were different, it was clear that both were imbued with the power of God.

“Gurgle-”

“Gurgle-?”

The monsters, which had been rushing towards the west gate, stopped advancing and became flustered.

Although they were contaminated by the Outer Gods, the monsters themselves were born and lived in the desert. Therefore, it was their first time seeing such a massive river, let alone an oasis.

However, they didn’t give up on advancing.

“Gurgle.”

“Gurgle.”

SPLASH!

After a brief moment of hesitation, the Outer Gods jumped into the river.

At first, they twisted their bodies from side to side, struggling in place, but soon they began to move forward little by little, as if doing a dog paddle.

And after a while, they spread their limbs wide like frogs and swam in a fairly natural manner.

Each had a different method, but they were adapting to swimming faster than anyone else.

Indeed, Outer Gods.

It was an unbelievable adaptability, just like they had shown so far.

Some of them even formed membranes between their fingers or created fins on their tails to move even faster.

When they had crossed half of the river and the depth of the river was deep enough, Zenon nodded.

“I’m ready.”

“Immediately…”

Yoo Seo-ah also nodded and drew her twin swords.

Commanding Cheonghae instead of the Diablo Guild was something she had never done or even thought of.

‘I have to do it.’

She couldn’t give up just because she hadn’t done it before.

To protect all sides of Skavde, to avoid hindering Se-un, and to help Se-un, she had to fight.

“I’ll go!”

“Everyone, enter the water!”

“Enter the water!”

With Yoo Seo-ah and Zenon at the forefront, the entire Cheonghae Guild, numbering over a hundred, jumped into the sea above the desert.

No matter how well the Outer Gods were adapting to the water, they couldn’t match the movements of the Cheonghae Guild, who wielded water like their own limbs.

THWACK, THWACK!

“GURGLE!”

“It’s working!”

Zenon’s spear, made of meteorites, pierced through the leading Outer God.

Seeing the Outer God screaming and peeling away, Yoo Seo-ah once again recalled the characteristics of the Outer Gods that she had heard from Yoo Seo-ah.

“Constantly memorize the characteristics of the Outer Gods! Never let your guard down!”

“Yes!”

A hundred guild members answered Zenon’s cry with a loud voice.

Yoo Seo-ah nodded and ran forward, stepping on the water’s surface.

– Player Yoo Seo-ah accepts ‘Baal’s Crown.’

No matter how reliable the Cheonghae Guild was, Yoo Seo-ah was the only one who had faced the Outer Gods here.

Although the number of Outer Gods was smaller compared to other gates, that was only relative.

The number of Outer Gods immediately in front of her exceeded a thousand.

For the sake of the Cheonghae Guild and for the sake of Se-un, she had to face the Outer Gods at the very front.

SCRITCH, SCRITCH!

“GURGLE-”

– The constellation, ‘Spider Wearing a Crown,’ watches over its contractor, saying that it is time to use what it has trained so far.

Faster, more accurately, more meticulously.

There was no need to aim for the enemy’s vitals. She only had to graze the Outer God’s fingertips with the tip of her sword.

– Player Yoo Seo-ah uses ‘Tarantula’s Fangs.’

Her poison had become so strong that it could melt the Outer God’s body just by grazing it.

In the place where she passed, the Outer Gods collapsed without fail, letting out pitiful groans.

‘Faster, even faster.’

She had intended to command Cheonghae, but she realized during the first charge that Cheonghae didn’t need a new commander as long as Zenon was present.

She had followed them, thinking that they might be careless or panic since it was their first time facing the Outer Gods, but Zenon was a better guild master than she had thought.

Even without looking back, she could tell that Cheonghae was facing the Outer Gods admirably.

In that situation, what she had to do was not command, but charge.

“…I’ll assist you.”

POOF, POOF!

Tentacles wriggling like a kraken’s tentacles rose up around her, piercing dozens of Outer Gods in an instant.

Yoo Seo-ah, realizing that the attack was Choi Soo-chang’s support, nodded and increased her speed even further.

She left the blind spots to Choi Soo-chang and defeated as many Outer Gods as possible.

Her movements, which had reached the realm of mastery, instantly became the wind and disappeared from sight.

POOF, POOF!

The Outer Gods touched by the radiant wind lost their lives in an instant.

Yoo Seo-ah of the Gale [Gale refers to a very strong wind].

Her epithet spread throughout the Skavde region.
