Episode 955 Don’t bow your head. (5)
Paaaaaa!
Nangung Daowi’s sword mercilessly cut into the bodies of the charging enemies. There wasn’t even the slightest hesitation. The young venom at the tip of the sword was now showing Nangong Daowi’s resolve.
And at that moment, Emperor Nangong burst out from under him.
“Hwaaaaaap!”
Quaaaaaaa!
The dazzling white sword energy rose and swept away the enemies rushing from the front in one fell swoop.
It’s famous and empty.
No, these words are insufficient to explain the momentum.
“come! “You dirty enemies!”
A storm of shouts erupted. On this dark river, Emperor Nangong’s eyes were extremely clear. As if it were on fire.
Love it!
The harpoon flew fiercely.
Kagang!
Emperor Nangong cut the flying harpoon in two at once, but there was no time to cut down the enemy who actually threw the harpoon. Before the sword could be swung again, another harpoon flew in, and before that harpoon could even get close to Emperor Chae Nangong, another harpoon flew in.
In the first place, a harpoon is a weapon for hunting, not war.
Harpoons, which are much thinner than spears, do not intertwine. Once the hook attached to the end penetrates the body, it cannot be pulled out without tearing the flesh.
It is a weapon that only has disadvantages when fighting between unmanned and unmanned people, but when hunting a small number like now, the harpoon is more powerful than any other weapon.
The young madness in the eyes of the enemies shone brightly even in the dark. More than a dozen harpoons flew towards Nangong Emperor and Nangong Daowi with all their might.
“Don’t underestimate me!”
Nangung Dowi kicked off the water and jumped again, spraying sword energy at the approaching enemies with his harpoon.
Twelve iron swords.
A sword style that is the basis of the Namgung family, different from the Emperor sword style that requires great internal power. A concise swordsmanship was more effective in situations like this.
Because it is simple, it is quick, and because it is quick, it is powerful. The white sword energy cut through the flying harpoons, breaking them and settling into the bodies of the enemies.
“Aaaahhh!”
“Kaaaaak!”
The enemies ran away screaming. The blood they scattered spread throughout the Yangtze River, but the darkness that had descended only indifferently consumed both their blood and their bodies.
Paaaaaa!
However, even though his comrade was cut from the waist down and died, the flying harpoon did not stop.
“Oooooh!”
This time, Emperor Nangong roared and swung his sword. The rising sword energy exploded, creating huge waves in all directions. The enemies that had risen above the water were swept away by the waves of such tremendous force that they were thrown away.
But…
“Kill me!”
“They are a minority! “Kill them all!”
“I will cut off the king’s sword!”
Even if you kill and kill again, more people will rush to you, and even if you push away again and again, more will come after you.
No, it wasn’t quite like that. Even though their comrades were dying right in front of them, the enemies continued to run wild like a pack of hungry sharks that smelled blood.
“Shoot!”
Paaaaaaaa!
At that moment, hundreds of arrows shot out from several ships that were slowly approaching them. The rain of arrows, which seemed to cover the sky, changed direction at once and began to pour down on the heads of Emperor Nangong and Daoyu Nangong.
“These crazy people…!”
A roar exploded from the mouth of Emperor Nangong.
Kagang! Kaga River!
The arrows loaded with internal power penetrated at an incredible speed, but Emperor Namgung was not one to be defeated by such crude arrows. The ones who suffered damage from the arrow were none other than the enemies who were charging at the two men.
“Gagging!”
“Aaaah!”
The arrow pierced the back of the enemy’s head and stuck out in front of his face. Those who rushed in without thinking were unable to dodge the arrows that flew at them, and were instantly pierced by dozens of arrows and turned into hedgehogs.
“This…!”
Emperor Nangong’s eyes burned with anger.
Even though I know clearly that my comrades are there, I shoot arrows. Even though she knew that no matter how many arrows she fired, she would only scratch Emperor Nangong!
Are you saying that their lives are no better than the scars of Emperor Nangong?
“Black dragon waaaaaa!”
“Shoot!”
Emperor Nangong roared in anger, but the Black Dragon King only gave instructions with a sour expression on his face.
“It’s okay if you don’t get hurt. “As long as you let go, that’s enough.”
Basically, all sword strength comes from the lower body. It is difficult for any sword to exert its power in a place where there is no place to step. This means that in order to deploy a sword with the same power as usual, you have to expend twice as much internal power as usual.
Especially if you are Emperor Nangong, who puts a lot of power into each sword, you will soon get tired. Especially since I was overworked on Maehwa Island for a while and couldn’t stay healthy.
Once the Nangong Emperor’s energy is sufficiently drained, the Black Dragon King can step forward and cut off his head.
“You idiot.”
A bitter smile appeared on the Black Dragon King’s lips.
I don’t know what he was thinking, but from the moment he jumped into this river with his own feet, Emperor Nangong’s fate was sealed.
pop! pop! pop!
An arrow filled with intense power pierced the surface of the water and burrowed downwards.
Clearly, those arrows did not cause proper damage to Emperor Namgung. But that story is limited to Emperor Namgung.
Those who were dealing with arrows on the water could just see them with their eyes and block them, but the elders who were dealing with the enemies in the water had a completely different position.
While they were looking at the bottom of the water while dealing with the enemies surging from below, an arrow suddenly hit them. The power of the arrows loaded with power did not diminish even after piercing the surface of the water, and their fate was obvious as they had to face dozens of arrows flying at their backs at once.
Quad deuk!
As if the name Elder of Namgung was not in vain, he was able to momentarily hit the arrows, but it was impossible to block them all. He felt sharp points digging into his back and sides.
Quack!
“Three Elders!”
A scream-like shout bursts from the mouth of Emperor Nangung.
The three elders, flinching at the arrow lodged in their bodies, dove deeper into the water.
Emperor Nangong gritted his teeth.
There is no time to take care of your body. The moment they leave the battle line, Emperor Nangong will have to deal not only with harpoons flying from above the water, but also from under the water.
Knowing this, the Three Elders chose to fight against the enemies without caring for their own lives.
Emperor Nangong looked around.
There is no end.
It was hard to tell whether what I was seeing was the river or the enemies filling the river.
Emperor Nangong gritted his teeth.
“Dowi!”
“yes!”
“Behind my back!”
Nangong Daowi looked at Nangong Emperor for a moment. She opened her mouth as if she was about to say something, but Namgung Dowi soon swallowed her words by biting her lip until she bled.
The moment he kicked the surface of the water and moved behind Emperor Nangong, a harsh breath came out of Emperor Nangong’s mouth.
“Dowi!”
“Yes, matriarch!”
Even in the midst of the confusion, Emperor Nangong glanced back at Tao Wei. Emperor Nangong’s mouth opened slightly as he looked at him with eyes that made it difficult to guess what he was thinking.
“Don’t get off Abby’s back.”
“⋯⋯.”
That was all it said. Emperor Nangong firmly grabbed her sword once again.
If you get stuck in a place like this anyway, the consequences are obvious. But what they need to do is move forward, not hold on.
At any cost!
“Elders, protect Daowi!”
His voice may have passed through the water below. However, they would fully understand Emperor Nangong’s intentions without having to say anything.
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
brilliant light.
Emperor Nangong’s sword energy swept across the front lines with a brilliant light that seemed to instantly turn the dark sky back into a blue sky.
The powerful sword energy literally split the Yangtze River in an instant. The enemies that filled the path of sword energy were crushed without even being able to scream.
“Goes!”
As the water that had been pushed out rushed back in, the river shook like a stormy sea. Nangong Huang kicked the water and went in a straight line.
“die!”
“You monster!”
The enemies rolled their eyes and rushed toward Emperor Nangung.
Work sword again!
Quaaaaaaa!
The sword energy emitted by Emperor Nangong struck away the oncoming enemies along with the river water.
Throbbing! Throbbing!
It felt like someone was stabbing my Danjeon with a needle. My body was no longer intact when I jumped into the river. In that situation, I was spraying my sword energy without looking back, so it was natural that my strength would run out.
However, Emperor Nangong did not think about the future.
There is no back. There is only the front.
“Ooooooooo!”
Emperor Nangong’s sword moved greatly once again. The white sword energy that bloomed and flickered brilliantly seemed to be drawing on the river the path they would take.
“come!”
Quaaaaaaa!
The bottom of the water line, which was so intense with that black energy, burst open as if a giant had torn it off with his hands.
“come!”
Emperor Nangong tilted his neck and roared.
There was no more strength left in my body. Danjeon was now painful, as if he had been cut with a knife.
Nevertheless, his mind was calmer than before jumping into the water.
The sword energy was unleashed again.
‘Now… I understand.’
He was troubled at times. About the half-assed sword technique called the Emperor Sword type.
All extreme attacks. This strange sword uses an absurdly large amount of internal power to produce great destructive power, but is extremely weak when it comes to defending the back.
Therefore, although Namgung always produced the best swordsmen in the world, he was always unable to overcome the final hurdle. The title of the best sword in the world was not always theirs.
Why did his ancestors make this type of swordsmanship the name of Namgung?
But…
‘Now I know.’
No need to watch your back.
Because now he has his son behind his back.
King’s sword type. The Emperor’s Sword.
That sword is not for showing off. It’s not even for defeating enemies.
It’s just to protect those who follow with their backs.
That was the kingly reward that Namgung wanted.
‘No… It should be said that it is the path of the family head.’
His sword speaks.
To protect his son even if it means squeezing out everything he has left.
The corners of Emperor Nangong’s mouth rose, revealing his pure white teeth. The swirling waves kept hitting his face, and the fishy river water rushed into his throat, but his eyes were clearer than ever.
“Dowi!”
“yes!”
“Watch closely!”
This is the path he takes. And it is a path his son will have to take one day.
Quaaaaaaa!
The terrifying sword energy he unleashed swept away and struck down the enemies that rushed at him without giving up.
Quack!
However, the harpoon that flew through the sword energy, which could not be perfected, pierced his side.
Emperor Nangong did not look away.
Paaaaaa!
In one fell swoop, he cut off the head of the person who had stabbed him in the stomach, and then proceeded to blow off the heads of the very frightened enemies.
Quack! Quack!
A harpoon flew out of the water and stuck in his leg, and a shower of arrows pierced his shoulder.
Nevertheless, Emperor Nangong only stared ahead.
‘Open.’
Even if it means burning everything.
The path Namgung will take.
The path his son must take.
