Chapter 439: The Ones that Gathered
“Khan! Conir!!! Ben!” Genie hurriedly called for the people closest to her the moment she saw the man hiding in her shadows. It was clear to her that he was an enemy that she could not deal with on her own.
“Amoure…?!” Ghost Spear Ben shouted, as his expression turned into one of shock and dismay when he recognized Amoure. This was because Amoure was extremely strong and stealthy.
Shwaaaaaaaa—
Amoure, who disappeared into the shadows again, appeared right behind Ben.
Claaaaaaang—
Ben’s spear moved swiftly, targeting Amoure’s abdomen, neck, and head. However, it was not easy for Ben to land an attack on Amoure. Instead of landing an attack, it was Amoure who used his ridiculous dagger technique.
“Bloody Death.”
Shwaaaaaaaaa—
The dagger in Amoure’s hand flew towards Ben’s throat at breakneck speed.
“Gra… Grandpa Ben!!!”
“Conir!!! Conir help Grandpa Ben!!!”
Conir and Genie ran towards Ben but they were already a step too late. Even if they ran as fast as they could, Ben’s neck would still be pierced by the dagger. Unlike the event in the Continent Cloud, the NPCs did not have the special privilege of living again after being killed here. In other words, if Ghost Spear Ben got killed here, then he would face absolute death.
“No!!!” Genie shouted with an ugly expression on her face. Many would be sad and in despair if Ben died. Especially Minhyuk. He treated Ghost Spear Ben tenderly and carefully as if he was his own paternal grandfather. But just when despair flashed in their eyes…
“Ooooooooooooh?! Is that Minhyuk?!!! My lord, please take me!!!”
Minhyuk’s Extreme Hardcore Fan passed by Ghost Spear Ben. As she passed by, she pulled Ben slightly. The momentum of the slight pull forced Ben’s body slightly away, causing the dagger that was aiming for his neck to miss by just a hair’s breadth.
“Eh? I got the wrong one? Hiiiing…” Extreme Hardcore Fan scratched her helmet after passing by Ghost Spear Ben.
Amoure frowned as he watched her scratch her helmet in a silly manner. He thought, ‘Was it just a coincidence…?’
Amoure doubted himself for a moment. This was because he could not feel any force from her and if he could not detect any sign of force from her body, it would either be just one of the two cases. Either the woman in front of him was weak, or her power far exceeded his own.
However, no matter how hard he looked at her, the second case seemed to be completely impossible.
In that gap, Ghost Spear Ben thrusted his spear forward once again. However, Amoure could see many steps ahead of them. It would only take three seconds for Ben to close the gap between them. It was just three seconds, but Amoure already envisioned himself twisting his body away and evading Ghost Spear Ben’s spear. Then, he would proceed to stab Conir, who was approaching him from behind, on the throat with his dagger. He would then use the boy’s body as a springboard to deal with Genie, the commander of Valhalla who was running to save them, before jumping in the shadows to hide.
‘What a perfect scenario.’
Amoure’s lips twisted into a gruesome smirk as he immediately sprung into action. He twisted his body slightly and avoided Ghost Spear Ben’s spear. Then, he turned around while stretching his arm to stab Conir, who was trying to cast his skill. No. He was about to stretch his arm out.
“Kyaaaaaaaaa! I’m sure this time it’s for real!!! Minhyuk! Look at me! My lord! Take me!!! Please hold me, my lord!!!”
Thud—
It was just a split second. But in that moment, Extreme Hardcore Fan hit Amoure’s turning body. To others, it might look like a light poke but…
Poke, poke, poke, poke—
…her fingers accurately hit Amoure\'s acupuncture points. Then, at that moment…
[You have received a blow from a veteran.]
[All of your acupuncture points have been blocked. You will be in a stunned state for three seconds.]
‘Wha… what…?!’
Amoure’s expression turned ugly. Well, to be exact, his confusion and shock could only be seen through his widening eyes. But the woman that only passed by him in that split second looked far away again while scratching her helmet.
“It’s not him either? Hiiiing…”
Amoure’s eyes widened in shock.
‘That… that b*tch…’
She did it on purpose. The blows that he received just now were a testament to that fact. And there was no doubt about her identity. But then, Conir finally cast his skill and…
“Wailing Child!”
…triggered a ridiculously fast sword dance! The sword lights danced around and wrapped around Amoure’s body without stopping! Ghost Spear Ben took advantage of this attack to approach Amoure and stab him on the neck with all his might.
Staaaaaaab—
Amoure, who was slowly collapsing, saw Minhyuk’s Extreme Hardcore Fan smiling quietly before his eyes slowly closed. Genie, on the other hand, approached the mysterious woman with a subtle smile on her face. The woman was making herself busy turning her head left and right as she tried to look for Minhyuk.
“Thank you for your help.”
“I’m willing to give my life for Minhyuk. I have no other wish but to hold Minhyuk’s hands!!!”
Minhyuk’s Extreme Hardcore Fan, in other words Ellie, was playing dumb.
However, Genie had already noticed that she was Sword Emperor Ellie. The same was true for Ben and Conir. Still, they all pretended that they did not know.
“Where’s Minhyuk?”
Genie could only smile wryly when she heard those words.
“About that… We don’t know either.”
“Ah… this… But I thought this was my chance to see Minhyuk up close!!!”
Ellie, with a disappointed expression on her face, could not help but wonder where Minhyuk was.
***
Thousands of soldiers that formed the shield unit rushed forward, together with the Barras Kingdom troops, and pushed towards the fortress’ entrance!
Thwaaaaaaaaack!
Genie’s whip cracked and landed on hundreds of shields, splitting them in half. The enemies could not help but look at her in awe and admiration after seeing her shocking display of power. This was because she swept away dozens of shields in a single attack. But it did not end there. Conir jumped down from the walls.
“Conir will make everyone eat ramyeon in our territory!”
The moment he landed, Conir jumped up like a spring and cut down the enemies that blocked his path. Just when Conir was being surrounded by the enemies…
Flaaaaaash—
…Golden Mage Ali suddenly appeared beside Conir using Blink before using Mass Teleport to take Conir back with him to the walls.
“Firewall! Firewall! Firewall!”
Puhaaaaaa!
Puhaaaaaaa!
A wall of fire about seven meters in height sprang to life and devoured the flocking enemy troops. The enemies that disappeared from the walls of fire numbered at around a hundred and fifty.
“Red Fire’s Hell Carriage!”
“Giant’s Battering!”
Khan, Ace, and Crow stood in front of the gates and decimated their enemies with their AOE attack skills.
[Let’s Eat Sect’s pride and dignity is beyond what we can imagine.]
[The 20,000 strong troops are having a hard time breaking through the 6,000 strong troops.]
[Maybe it’s because they are top rankers?]
Contrary to what the commentators were saying, it was not only the rankers that were fighting.
“Archers, fire!”
Fwoosh, fwoosh, fwoosh, fwoosh—
Hundreds of arrows poured down from the walls at Centurion Park’s orders. The arrows that they sent down broke the armor of the enemy and shot through their vital points. With every ‘fwoosh’, an enemy would fall down.
In the first place, the soldiers that Let’s Eat Sect and Minhyuk had trained were at a higher level than the soldiers of Barras Kingdom. Because of this, the invading guild alliance had no choice but to place countless rankers and knights in the vanguard.
[The rankers and knights are hiding behind the shields as they try to advance forward.]
[It’s because they can’t advance with ordinary soldiers so they’re trying to break through the defenses in one go!]
It was just like what the commentators said. If they sent ordinary troops forward then they would just incur unnecessary losses. That was why the rankers and knights had to step forward. And the ones that were leading them were the Pinnacle Strong Men.
‘Where the hell did Amoure go?’
‘Did something go wrong? That’s definitely not the case, right?’
The thought that Amoure had died did not even cross their minds. This was because they knew that even if they grouped together, they would find it difficult to win against Amoure.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
Under the rain of magic bombs and arrows, the shields that led the rankers and the knights, around a thousand in numbers, finally reached the gates of the fortress. The rankers and knights stepped forward and defended against the enemies attacks with practiced response.
‘If we can break through the gates then…’
It was no different from saying that the war had ended. So, the knights and the rankers increased their momentum and attacked the gates fiercely.
‘We only need ten minutes to pierce through their gates… huh?’
One of the Pinnacle Strong Men, Loki the Sword Supreme, saw an incredible sight. The rankers and the knights were attacking the gates just like they were ordered. However, the problem was…
“Keuaaaaaaack!”
“Euaaaaaaaack!”
“Keheoooook!”
…it was not the gates that were falling but the knights and the rankers. They even screamed as they fell down one after another. It was not long after that Loki realized the reason why.
‘My goodness… They placed a reflection ability on the gates itself?!’
In order for the gates to have the ability to reflect attacks, the strongest mage and the best architect had to work together. But no matter how hard Loki tried to make sense of it, he could not understand it at all.
The knights and soldiers that were attacking the gates shifted their attention and targeted the walls. They used their powerful attack skills, knights’ auras, and mages’ magic to attack the walls. However…
‘There, there’s not even a crack…?!’
It was completely shocking. What in the world did Minhyuk do to have such strong soldiers and a sturdy fortress?!
‘Is he really talented enough to become king?’ Loki thought as he gnashed his teeth.
‘That’s why he has to disappear. No. We have to take it and make it ours.’
The Pinnacle Strong Men intended to devour everything, including Let’s Eat Sect, for themselves. At that moment, a pigeon landed in front of Loki and brought a smile to his face. Almost 170,000 troops from Barras Kingdom were now preparing to march here. There were even around 10,000 powerful soldiers, along with 20,000 cavalry sent here in advance too.
‘Everything will end now,’ Loki thought, already picturing their victory.
***
“Hiyaa! Hiyaa!”
Twenty thousand cavalry, followed by ten thousand Barras Kingdom knights, soldiers, and top rankers, were advancing as fast as they could. Before anyone knew it, they were already approaching Valhalla Territory.
Meanwhile, Team Leader Park Minggyu, who was monitoring the situation in the Special Players Management Team…
‘What in the world is Player Minhyuk doing…? Where the hell is he?’
He was wondering where Minhyuk was. The 30,000 cavalry and rankers were getting closer and closer, soon joining the 20,000 troops that advanced ahead of time. If these two troops combined together, they would reach a total of 50,000. The cloud of dust that these incoming troops had created would bring fear to Valhalla Territory.
‘Is this the end…?’
Minggyu thought that Minhyuk could do it. That he could be the very first person to climb and sit on a throne in Athenae. However, there were just too many enemies.
Unfortunately, the Barras Kingdom cavalry joined with the rest of the kingdom\'s troops without a hitch. There were too many of them. It was to the point that they almost looked like a sea of black. This 20,000 strong cavalry would bring a great boost to their forces.
But then, at that moment…
“Team, Team Leader…! There are unidentified troops moving towards Valhalla!”
“…What?”
Park Minggyu’s face was colored with shock.
‘Unidentified troops? Are they from Barras Kingdom? Or perhaps they are volunteers from other kingdoms? ‘
Up until that point, Park Minggyu had no idea if they were Let’s Eat Sect’s enemy or ally.
“Open the map and check the area.”
“Yes, Team Leader.”
Lee Minhwa quickly tapped on her keyboard as Park Minggyu tried to make sense of what was happening. Finally, Lee Minhwa was able to find the troops. She quickly tapped on the location and enlarged it on her monitor. The figures of the troops finally came into view.
Dash, dash, dash, dash, dash—
They were around seventy kilometers away from Valhalla. The troops were 5,000 elves riding on white warhorses and right in front of them were 5,000 strong Dragon King Legion riding on top of giant four-legged crabs. And that was not the end of it. There were several people running through the thickets a little over ten kilometers away from them. They were wearing asura masks on their faces with spears on their hands. Team Leader Park Minggyu watched the scene in stunned silence. This was a miracle that Minhyuk had created. And this miracle was heading towards Valhalla.
At the same time, Minhyuk, who was fast asleep in his room…
Twitch—
…slowly started to move his fingers.
