“Aaaaaaaaa!”
An evil sound rang out. It was as if a vengeful spirit wandering the nine heavens had uttered a cry.
Jo Geol listened to the sound blankly and muttered.
“Okay, is this the end? “Are we going to do that because we failed?”
“No way!”
Yoonjong immediately refuted.
“The opponent is that Jang Il-so. “You can’t be this clumsy!”
If it ends here, it’s only a matter of words.
Of course, Yoonjong hopes for it to end here more than anyone else. However, if Jang Il-so and Ho Ga-myeong were such gentle and generous people, who would have put themselves through such hardships?
It will definitely come. Second and third.
And that purpose will only be one.
Baekcheon muttered.
“Are you saying you’re going to collapse this entire cliff?”
“maybe… … .”
“… … “Everything here, including the Sapaeryeondo Island?”
“Otherwise, there would be no reason for Brother Cheonmyeon to throw such a fit, right?”
Baekcheon gritted his teeth for a moment.
I will never be able to adapt to this bloodless and tearless behavior. It’s shocking and terrifying every time.
“Well, then what should I do?”
“What should I do? What should I do?” “We have to get out now!”
“Now?”
“What nonsense are you talking about, girl! then?”
Baekcheon shouted fiercely.
We must evacuate from here as soon as possible. We don’t know when this cliff will collapse. Maybe the explosion that just happened was a preparation for a huge explosion.
Even if you’re not ready, it’s the same. Because it is very clear what they are planning.
However, Zhao Geol’s face was still full of hesitation.
“Well, then what about the shaman?”
Baekcheon’s face hardened in an instant. The shaman, still surrounded by numerous enemies, could be seen behind Jo Geol.
“ah… … .”
They came to rescue the shaman.
However, even if you pull out your body right now, there is no guarantee that you will be able to survive. Even in such an urgent situation, should we save the shaman until the end?
There was a moment of conflict in Baekcheon’s eyes.
If the price of his decision had been his life, Baekcheon would have run to save the shaman without a second thought. If he can save even one more person, he has no reason to hesitate.
But now, behind Baekcheon, there are about a hundred executioners. Is it possible to gamble with their lives?
“that… … .”
Baekcheon’s eyes shook violently.
The concerns given are too deep, and the time to make a decision is too short. How can it be so harsh?
‘What should I do?’
It was the moment when Baekcheon tightly wrapped his cold fingertips.
Faaah!
“execution!”
“Yoonjong!”
Yunjong lunged towards the shaman as if there was nothing to think about.
After the explosion, the Sapae cadets who were standing there in a daze reflexively waved their military flags at Yunjong.
Kaga River!
Yunjong quickly struck down the enemy’s weapons and took their breath away.
“Kwaaaaaaak.”
The throat-scratching scream subsided for a moment, awakening the frozen battlefield again.
“execution! “Oh my god, damn it!”
“Yoonjong!”
Jo Geol and Baek Cheon quickly followed behind Yoon Jong.
Quack!
Yunjong moved his sword faster than ever before and killed the enemy. And he shouted loudly, as if he was screaming.
“There is no time to worry!”
“you… … .”
“We save the shaman and move forward! “The exit is back there!”
Baekcheon bit his pale lower lip.
That is correct.
You can’t go back through the cliff anyway. In that case, the only way out of this place is on the other side of the cliff.
Ultimately, it means that you have to open the way to where the shaman is.
‘damn!’
Yes, if you think about it, it’s a simple problem. How could I get so caught up in my worries that I missed something simple?
“volcano!”
Baekcheon raised blood in his neck and shouted until the cliff went away.
“Don’t think backwards, open the way! Don’t save your energy! “If we don’t break through here, everyone will die!”
“Oh, no, wait a minute! Sasuk!”
Jo Geol shouted as if she was surprised.
“Don’t these bastards know what’s going on! If they’re so crazy, they don’t even want to fight us right now… … .”
“It’s too much, girl!”
“There’s no way it’s going to be that easy!”
It was that moment.
“What are you doing! “Kill them!”
As if to answer Jo Geol’s question, hysterical shouts were heard from all over the place.
“No need to worry! This is the sound of disposing of the remaining remnants below! “Don’t let them escape!”
“Fight!”
In fact, some of them gained momentum again and rushed towards the volcano, brandishing their swords. The atmosphere at the summit, which had been cooling off, heated up again as if engulfed in flames.
Kaang!
Jo Geol blocked the knife of the guy who was charging at him and his face was distorted.
“Hey, you stupid bastards… … .”
“Aaaah!”
The bloodshot eyes of the enemy met Jo Geol’s eyes. Jo Geol paused for a moment. The enemy’s eyes were filled with desperation, not the anger of someone who did not understand the situation.
‘what… … .’
Suddenly!
Baekcheon mercilessly cut down the evil enemy. The hot blood that splattered into the air became a signal.
“Kill!”
“Aaaaaaa!”
The Sapae ryeondo began to clash fiercely with the Hwasan swordsmen again. Those who were attacking the shaman also accelerated their attacks again.
“You idiots! If this happens, everyone will die!”
“It’s no use!”
Yoonjong changed his teeth.
If it is Ho Ga-myeong or Jang Il-so, they will be holding on to the lives of several people who will lead the atmosphere. It wouldn’t have been that difficult. There are many things people fear more than their own death.
Even those who were confused eventually had no choice but to follow the instigation of those few people. Whose words would you trust more: the words of the enemy or the words of your superiors who were giving orders to you?
“Damn it! Didn’t you even hear the screams of the Cheonmyeon investigation? “You idiots!”
My insides were completely black. But Jo Geol’s words did not reach them at all.
In the end, Jo Geol also started cutting down the enemies quickly. One by one, the swordsman’s disciples came to their senses and began to block the way. It was so frustrating that Jogeol let out a roar.
“You crazy bastards, explosives are going to explode!”
“Kill me!”
Yeah, I can’t believe it. The number of people gathered here and their affiliations will interfere with proper judgment.
Even if you change your position and think about it, the same is true. Can they imagine that the higher-ups would bury them, all these people, here? Let’s catch just a hundred or so people?
“Get out of the way, you bastards!”
“Dirty political faction bastards! “I will kill you all!”
“If you do this, everyone will die! Get out of here!”
At that time, Yoonjong’s voice pierced my ears.
“Get out of the way, girl!”
“Huh?”
Jo Geol flinched and twisted her body to the side.
“Oooooh!”
Then, Hyeyeon’s immense power passed by where Jo Geol was just moments ago.
Quaaaaaaa!
The golden power flew in with terrifying force and swept away the Sapae-ryeondo who had not yet properly prepared their posture.
Jo Geol gritted his teeth again and adjusted his grip on the sword.
“I will never die here! “Get out of the way!”
Quad Deuk!
The spear flew into Jinhyeon’s chest. Since he could no longer put enough force into his sword, he could not even land such a simple blow properly.
“Jinhyeon!”
Kwagak!
Jinhyeon immediately cut off the hilt of the spear stuck in his chest and thrust the sword into the trembling face of his enemy.
A body with no sound anywhere. But Jinhyeon was still fighting.
“Ugh… … .”
The limit has already arrived and is taking over the body.
Another sound of death is heard from somewhere. The shaman was rapidly collapsing, as if the strength he had exerted a moment ago had been lost. At the same time, even the camp that had somehow been maintained began to fall apart.
If the enemies hadn’t hesitated for a moment due to the shaking from the explosion a moment ago, they probably would have already collapsed.
“Strength… … !”
Kaang!
Mujin, who was trying to cheer Jinhyeon up somehow, was also unable to finish his words and barely managed to block the sword flying at his face. Even though I only blocked a simple blow, the inside was completely shaken. I no longer felt any pain in my swollen and tattered wrist.
‘Is it the end…? … .’
For a moment, I thought I saw hope. However, that light was completely destroyed by a large explosion that occurred at the bottom of the cliff.
I didn’t want to admit it, but I had to know. What will happen to this place? Even if I try to deny it, I simply cannot.
“flaw… … .”
My heavy breathing came out like laughter and then like crying. They were thoroughly fooled in the end.
Moreover, what makes Mujin even more painful now is that the shaman was nothing more than bait to attract Hwasan here.
Kaang!
Mujin, who countered the enemy’s attack, swung his sword with all his might.
Suddenly!
The sword pierced the flesh with an eerie sound. However, he was unable to suffocate with a single blow. There was not enough strength.
The enemy who was hit with a sword in the chest fought back viciously.
Quack!
There was a burning sensation near my elbow, as if it were on fire. The moment Mujin unconsciously took a couple of steps back, a strong tension came from somewhere and hit Mujin’s body.
Quang!
My weakened body fell backwards.
The world turned white, and all sounds stopped at once. In a world filled with so much silence that it hurts my ears, Mujin, who was stuck on the ground, lifted her head blankly and stared ahead.
Enemies were pouring into the place where he had been pushed. It was violent and rough, like water pouring from a dam bursting.
The sight of the sword they wield cutting off the bodies of the executioners is seen slowly, as if in a dream. If this is not called despair, then what else is despair?
Maybe that scene could be the end of the shaman. No, it may be the end of political factions and powerhouses that go beyond shamans.
‘ah… … .’
At that moment, someone comes into Mujin’s field of vision.
A slow but disciplined step. In this time when everything was excruciatingly slow, I felt like I was walking in time alone.
Mujin’s eyes widened as he saw the familiar back of the person blocking his path.
‘buy… … .’
It was empty.
He was standing in front of me, having lost consciousness from exhaustion. Even though I obviously don’t have the strength to even lift a finger anymore.
The air moved its hand. For him now, he has lifted a sword that is as heavy as Mount Tai, over a thousand pounds.
Mujin’s one remaining eye was so wide that it couldn’t get any wider.
‘not… … .’
At that moment, a murmur in the air was clearly heard in Mujin’s ears.
“If you just let it flow… … “It will turn around and be back in place.”
The sword in the air drew a slow semicircle.
Bottom to left, left to top, top to right. It was a perfect circle that Mujin had never seen before.
Soon, black and white sword energy swirled around. From the sword of a person who doesn’t even have the strength to stand properly.
“therefore… … .”
Wooooow!
Another energy penetrates the bright black energy. Although it was colorless and transparent, it was as pure and blue as the clear valley water in the mountains.
The world leaves this energy like the clearest water… … It is called Seoncheonjigi.
The sword energy that formed the shape of the Three Great Poles by adding blue to black and white swirled at the tip of the sword in the air.
“It’s Taegeuk.”
Quaaaaaaa!
The energy spreads like an explosion.
The disciples of Sapaeryun were swept away by the tremendous sword that suddenly exploded without even being able to resist.
Quaaaaaaa!
The sword energy that combines yin and yang, plus human (人), pulverized the human body at once, burying even the screams that came out.
“ah… … .”
What’s left is just nothingness. The entire space in front of the void returns to nothingness. Even after wiping my eyes and looking for the presence of enemies who were rushing towards me with malicious intent, I couldn’t find them.
It was a wonder created with a sword, and it was an unbelievable sight to have been created with a human body.
In the midst of all this, the empty space stands alone.
“buy… Sook… … .”
Was Mujin’s voice a signal?
The empty body that had been standing upright and quiet collapsed. It’s not like a person falls, it’s like sand flowing down.
“Uh… … .”
Without realizing it, Mujin stretched his hand out into the empty space. Her fingertips, soaked in his blood, trembled pitifully.
What he had let go, the void was still holding on. So he threw everything he had and tried to protect the shaman until the end.
One, does it have any meaning? Anyway, this place… … .
“Lord, die, you monster!”
One of the guys who managed to survive without being caught in the sword attack suddenly came to his senses and lunged at the air.
It may be a struggle out of fear, not courage. However, neither Heogong nor Mujin had the power to stop that petty struggle.
The swung sword fell towards the nape of the empty space, where he was kneeling and bowing his head like a criminal.
“Sasuuuuuuk!”
It was at that moment that Mujin screamed and stretched out his hands.
Quack!
Suddenly, a long thing popped out from the lower jaw of the Sapae-ryeon sword that was striking the sword.
Lose!
The sword that flew out of his grasp swung around violently and flew right next to Mujin and stuck in it.
Kwakagak!
If he had not been careful, his body would have been cut in two, but Mujin’s eyes were fixed elsewhere.
“Kruk…” … .”
The enemy seemed to have frozen right in front of the empty space, and a person stabbed a sword above his head as if in an illusion.
That person’s name must be… … .
“Yui… … .”
Kwagak!
At that time, someone struck the pierced and twitching enemy’s neck in one fell swoop and rushed right into the air.
His intense eyes collided with Mujin’s blank eyes.
That person with his whole face stained with blood and his face distorted like a devil… … .
“… … One hundred thousand.”
“What are you doing!”
Baekcheon, who cut down the enemy in one go, grabbed Mujin’s shoulder.
“No time to dawdle! “Escape immediately!”
“one… … But this place… … .”
Mujin’s face became grim.
Cheon Woo-maeng and Hwasan risked everything to save the shaman. But in return, I now have to lose everything.
In such a situation, what kind of face should we face them?
“You know… … .”
“So what!”
“… … .”
“So, let’s sit down and die? Is that the shaman’s way?”
“I-I…” … !”
“Shut up and come here!”
“Oh, what!”
Baekcheon forcibly lifted Mujin and placed it on his shoulder.
“W-what are you doing!”
“Stay still! Because I’m complicated right now too!”
Mujin, who was speechless, became quiet. Baekcheon shouted.
“Carry all the survivors! “Escape now!”
“yes!”
Hwasan’s disciples gritted their teeth and rushed in, surrounding the shaman’s disciples.
Baekcheon was breathing heavily and looked towards the slope above the cliff. It is the path to the summit of shamanism.
‘Saint Ro!’
If there is a way to live, it is only there!
‘Get out alive. No, save it! ‘Everyone!’
Even if it means throwing your life away.
