186.
‘What is going on?’
Dohyun was currently bewildered.
To be precise, it was closer to awkwardness.
As soon as he defeated Luidra after a bloody battle, an overwhelming amount of attention was focused on him.
It was impossible not to be conscious of it, especially since the attention seemed to be twice as intense as before.
Among them were the Hero Guild members.
In particular, the sword user who looked like a pot-bellied middle-aged man standing at the front caught his eye the most.
‘……Looking at their expressions, it doesn’t seem like they’ll just let this go.’
It would be a relief if they just didn’t make a fuss. In the case of that pot-bellied middle-aged man, he looked like he was about to commit murder just by looking at his eyes. It was to the point where murderous intent seemed to be flowing from them.
‘Hey, don’t you think their movements are a bit strange, Master?’
‘My lord… I think we need to prepare.’
‘Lizariza.’
‘Yeah, I know.’
And it only took a few seconds to put it into action.
Step. Step. Step. Step.
They, who had been emitting a fierce aura, began to surround Dohyun and narrow the distance.
As they took out their weapons one by one, they made no attempt to hide their hostility. Usually, people try to be discreet when forming a formation and surrounding someone.
They didn’t seem to have any intention of concealing their aggression.
“Hey, they’re all surrounding Kaiser?”
“…Are they trying to assassinate Kaiser right now?”
“Crazy… This is a huge deal. I need to spread it on the community right away.”
It wasn’t just because Kaiser was familiar with this kind of situation that he was so perceptive.
Even the raid members who were watching were able to figure it out right away.
-Hey, hey, the atmosphere is unusual.
-Look at Zerpak’s expression. He looks like he’s about to start a real-life gang war.
-Something big is coming, 100% sure. Get ready to clip it, guys.
-Today is crazy, for real.
-How will Kaiser react? I’m getting nervous for no reason.
Even the viewers who were watching the broadcast felt the unusual atmosphere and were whispering about it.
‘No, are they really going this far?’
It was a somewhat embarrassing situation for Dohyun.
He didn’t know that he was on air, but there were more than a hundred users watching right here.
In this situation, 30 people are trying to kill one person and surrounding him?
They are a top 100 guild with the image of being heroes, but isn’t this a bit much?
Even if they are angry, it seems a bit excessive…
‘……Or is it?’
When he thought about it, it seemed like they had enough reason to do so.
To summarize the current situation:
While they were forming a raid party to attack a hidden raid boss, he intervened when they finally encountered the boss and stole it.
That alone is enough to make them angry, but he even killed the boss.
Since it was a named boss, it wouldn’t appear again, so the boss was effectively deleted.
‘Was it called the Savior of the Forgotten Specter? If this happens, won’t the quest be deleted too?’
…Even if they wanted to fight, he wouldn’t have anything to say, would he?
No matter how unintentional Dohyun was, and even if the situation was unintentional, there was no way they would see it that way.
Even Dohyun himself would have asked for their address.
[Using a movement scroll.]
[It is not yet available due to the influence of the special field ‘Nightmare Swamp’.]
[Available after 240 seconds.]
Even the movement scroll is on cooldown.
“Kaiser…!!”
“The Master has ordered it himself. Don’t worry about the consequences and thoroughly assassinate Kaiser!”
“We must kill him. The opponent is Kaiser. Don’t be careless and go all out from the start!”
In other words, there is no chance to explain, and he has to fight.
Dohyun, who sighed, grabbed Chunbyeon [Thousand Transformations] again.
[Chunbyeon (千變) is transformed into ‘Raven’s Black Spear’.]
In a situation where he has to face many people alone like now, a spear with a longer range is better than a sword.
Dohyun, who grabbed it with both hands and took a stance, glanced to the side.
[Health is below 10%. Be careful.]
[Mana is below 10%. Be careful.]
Both health and mana were at their lowest.
Moreover, most of the skills were on cooldown.
Lightning Dragon Advent is still far away, and Sword Aura is still on cooldown. Even if it were available, he practically couldn’t use it because of mana.
In many ways, it was the worst condition and situation.
‘It’s been a while. This kind of situation.’
However, Dohyun rather raised the corners of his lips.
Unfavorable conditions? Fighting against many?
He had experienced it countless times during his Demonic Mercenary days.
At that time, it was rarer to not be at a disadvantage, and in the end, Dohyun was always the one standing.
This time would be no different.
Taat!
“Now is the time, kill him!!”
“Take him down! Let’s end it today!”
Seeing the guys rushing in from all directions as the distance narrowed, Dohyun swung Chunbyeon greatly.
‘Okay, let’s give it a try.’
The great battle against the Hero Guild that will mark a milestone in the history of God of Seoul.
It was the moment when the myth of one versus thirty began.
* * *
Luidra Habitat.
A hidden field where a hidden named raid boss ‘used to be’.
This place was now a battlefield.
Swish-! Phewack! Pshwook-
The sound of flesh being cut by a spear and the sound of blood splattering.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Kuaaak! Uaaaaa!
What else could this place be if not a battlefield, with the chilling noise of a sword piercing internal organs and screams rampant.
However, unlike other battlefields where the numbers are somewhat similar, this was a one-versus-many fight.
No, this wasn’t a fight.
It was just an assassination. A stage to hunt down a human being.
The main character of the stage was the Hero Guild, the villain was Kaiser, and the audience was a huge stage made up of 150 million viewers who had reached the point.
‘What is this…’
But what is this?
“Keuheok!”
“Damn it, I can’t even get close.”
“M, my body is too slow to keep up.”
Kaiser, who was supposed to be brutally taught a lesson, was rampaging brilliantly.
[Movement is slowed due to exposure to Ice Flow (氷氣流) – Ice Air Current].
[You are freezing due to prolonged exposure to Ice Flow (氷氣流) – Ice Air Current].
Against the guild members who were slowed down by the Ice Flow that he had unleashed as soon as the battle began, he rather dug inside and began to take them down one by one.
Whoong- Swish!
Kuaaak!
Kaiser, who charged while wielding a huge spear.
As if he had four eyes, he lightly dodged or blocked attacks while taking ghostly steps even when they were attacking from all directions.
And when that happened, a counterattack would come without fail.
Pyooshook- Pyupyook!
Whoosh-!
At the same time, he dodged ranged attacks by lowering his head or twisting his body, showcasing truly divine control.
However, the Hero Guild members were also skilled players who made a name for themselves in individual battles.
“Now is the time!”
No matter how good a user is, there will inevitably be a gap in the moment of attacking.
They were not beginners enough to miss that timing.
But that monster showed a miracle of eliminating even that timing.
[Chunbyeon (千變) is transformed into ‘Special Silver Shield Made in a Special Workshop’.]
In the middle of facing the spear, it suddenly turned into a shield, deflected the surprise attack, and pushed them away.
Thump-thump-
The guild members who lost their balance and fell were falling one after another like dominoes.
Then, a weapon that had become a blue sword pierced his neck.
[Player ‘IWillBeTheBestSwordsmanOfJoseon’ has died.]
[It is judged that you made a preemptive attack, so the probability of dropping equipment items is increased.]
As another guild member tried to swing his sword behind his dead colleague, Kaiser kicked him down.
Then, he threw his sword at the guild member who was pulling the bowstring from afar.
Shuaaak- Thud!
The weapon, which had become a dagger in the middle of flying, accurately pierced the archer’s heart.
“T, this is our chance!”
“What are you all doing! Why aren’t you going in!”
“Tell me after looking at this situation. What the hell is this damn spider web? I can’t take my feet off!”
Whenever there was a chance, there was interference without fail.
-Those who dare to point a sword at my lord, you must get past this Charlie first!
-Lizariza! Liza!
Charlie, who was too familiar to users who played God of Seoul, and a small spider who confidently straightened his shoulders and uttered incomprehensible sounds.
If Kaiser was digging inside, applying wide-area slowing, and taking them down one by one.
Those two were in charge of tying up those who were aiming for Kaiser from behind.
Here, rather, a large number worked to their disadvantage.
Because they were tangled here and there without any formation, they couldn’t fight properly.
-You, who do you think you are pointing your sword at with such empty skills? You are a hundred years too early.
Kaiser alone was already overwhelming, but the level of those two was also beyond expectations.
Charlie, who was nothing more than a pushover in the tutorial.
His swordsmanship, which flowed through all attacks like an irresistible wave, was truly showing what a knight commander was.
-Hmm?
And what was even more amazing than that was his aggro [drawing enemy attention] skills.
-You, now that I see it, it’s not just your skills that are empty. Since you have such an empty head, isn’t your head empty?
“Puhup!”
“T, that son of a bitch…!!”
“Hey, you bastard! This is not the time to be distracted! Watch your back!”
If he held a few people with his unique, elegant swordsmanship, that spider would shoot a strange spider web to tie their feet.
If there was anyone who tried to escape, he would even hold them back by talking.
-Charlie’s mouth is amazing, the damage meter will explode.
-That CXX Charlie bastard. I didn’t like him from the beginning. 개XX [son of a bitch].
-From today, I will read the video of Charlie dying in the tutorial 30 times.
-Look at the bald uncles 풀Xㅋㅋㅋㅋ [laughing sounds].
-Ah ㄹㅇㅋㅋㅋㅋ [real, laughing sounds] Touching on hair loss is too much. All the bald people in the world are crying.
The chat window was filled with laughter at this rare sight.
But Zerpak couldn’t laugh like them.
‘T, this is ridiculous.’
No human could do this.
‘We are overwhelmingly advantageous. That guy isn’t even using proper skills!’
Numerical advantage? Depleted mana?
All of those were not giving them any advantage.
Just one skill.
30 elite guild members were not even able to overcome even one Ice Flow without damage.
Whirik- Thud!
Swish! Crack! Wooddeuk-
-Oh, listen to the sound of bones twisting. It’s properly broken.
-Aren’t you fighting?
-I don’t have any mana? I’m confident in running away, so don’t worry!
-Liza…
I wouldn’t be so upset if there was even that famous undead army that I saw in the video.
I could at least comfort myself that the numbers were similar.
But that’s not it either.
Undead? That robe-wearing dwarf is practically a burden.
It is practically a 3 vs 30 battle.
-Wow, is it real that they are overwhelming 30 vs 1?
-No, what is the Hero Guild doing? How can 30 people not catch 1 person ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ [laughing sounds]
-You can see it, would you catch that if it were you? The Hero Guild is still a guild that is good at individual battles. Kaiser is just crazy.
-By the way, is it real that Kaiser is not using any skills? Why isn’t he using them?
-I think he’s using Ice Flow… But he’s not using anything else. Is he short on mana?
-Ah, that’s right. He just finished the raid.
-What, then his HP must be at the bottom too. Are 30 people getting beaten up by one Kaiser who has no mana and is in bad condition right now?
-ㄹㅇ [real] What a mess ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ [laughing sounds]
And in the 3 vs 30 battle, they were being overwhelmed.
In other words, they were getting completely destroyed.
Overwhelming specs? Damage and defense that don’t match the level?
Charlie’s elegant swordsmanship?
No. What created the current situation was not just those things.
‘…Is this possible? How can a person move like that?’
Overwhelming skill.
Only that could explain this situation.
Like the words that came up in the chat, Kaiser was not using any skills right now.
He was just creating this ridiculous picture by properly handling Ice Flow and all kinds of weapons.
‘Ah…’
Zerpak, who prided himself on his control, was seeing such extraordinary movements for the first time.
That was no longer a fight.
Art, or thrill.
Gulp.
Zerpak, who swallowed dry saliva at the goosebumps, thought unconsciously.
‘……Maybe I shouldn’t have touched him?’
