Dragon Poor

296. Commitment (3)

Immediately after word of a massive advance across the front line spread, the morale of the soldiers dropped tremendously.

Even the soldiers of the Hundred Wars who fought the myriad of horses have not overcome their instinctive fears of witches and horses. It was strange for them to have been ordered to march inside the walls, not knowing how many horses were lurking there.

“This is crazy. ”

“It's a miracle the line isn't breached. Go in there." ”

The commander's orders to the soldiers were to dive into the beast's jaws.

“Soldiers, do not fear the darkness. Two thousand knights and a thousand wizards will be with you. ”

The commander also noticed the atmosphere of the soldiers early and tried to encourage them somehow, but once he fell to the ground, he never expected to rise.

“At worst, soldiers may try to flee. ”

The barrier was no longer the problem, but the soldiers had to flee.

“I'll take care of the soldiers. ”

At that time, it was the warrior Park Jun-min.

The warrior worked miracles around the front, as if he had proven his trust with a powerful flash the other day.

Numerous magical objects and horses disappeared without a trace because of the warrior's miracle, and the soldiers who watched the scene were excited to finally hear that God sent a Savior down to this world.

“Let's finish that damn wall! ”

“The Savior is with us! ”

No more sleepless fears or nightmares. Soldiers gained total courage from the overwhelming divine majesty and overcame fears of the darkness beyond the Wall.

And when the coalition was at its peak, the expedition to cross the Wall was finally assembled on Tennessee's northern plains.

Ninety-six superpowers, including 232 knights, 977 wizards and spirits, were added to the force of the expedition to cross the Wall, apart from which each of the hundred knights, wizards and four hundred foreigners and Queishas joined the expedition.

To that was added the 17th regiment and 34,000 infantry. They were elites who had been fighting magic and magic together for a long time.

“We don't fight unless we're on a horse. ”

Unfortunately, the nomadic people of the north refused to join as an excuse that their horses refused to approach the Wall.

“We'll take charge of the defense lines while you're gone. ”

It was fortunate that they decided to fill in the gaps.

Gooooo.

Announcing the beginning of the expedition was a holy and sacred flash, as if it were not from this world. The pillar of light that began in the sky opened the way for the expedition to go, cutting through the dark barrier like the sunlight that drives out the night.

“What a propaganda effect. ”

Instead of joining the expedition, Marek, who remains on the defensive line, chokes his tongue at the sacred sight of the excited soldiers.

“Do you think it will work? ”

Similarly, Asha Trail, who did not join the expedition, looks at Marek and asks.

“I don't know. ”

Marek's gaze is on the back of the expedition that follows the path of light.

“But no matter who wins, it's certainly not a human victory. ”

Human beings were merely companions, no matter who was the winner of the powerful sacred and sourced dark and duel.

"Hmm."

The Asha Trail did not understand what Marek was saying, but it did not lead to a chatty question. I just quietly followed the glance of the sword and looked behind the expedition.

Rrrrgh.

Soon after the expedition crossed the barrier, the darkness that split aside rebuilt the wall.

The dark of the expedition is no longer visible.

* * *

Even after the expedition crossed the Wall, the Allied forces have not changed a bit.

If you notice a wave rising rather than aiming for the Black Wall, deploy your troops to kill the horses with all your might. If anything, it's that the horsemen of the North have dealt with powerful horses on behalf of the Knights and Wizards.

However, the situation of the defense line did not change the situation of the outside world.

Abnormal signs were found all over the continent.

The first thing I noticed was a bunch of herbalists going back and forth through a dark forest.

“I swear I've never seen a monster so ugly since I was born. ”

“What a strange shape, like a mixture of pigs and humans in half. I almost got eaten by Barabbas in a daze. ”

Herbalists talk about the mysterious existence crouched in the deepest shade of the forest, and later woodcutters who were lumbering outside the forest saw horses.

They testified that strange monsters they had never seen in their lives were full of forests, but the head of the kingdom quickly broke through the investigators who were afraid of disaster at the church.

“It's not like magic. ”

And the investigators who went directly into the forest and confirmed the truth of the rumors confirmed that the monsters in the forest were a different species from the monsters.

“It was like an orc in a myth. ”

The wizards of the Investigation Group said that strange beings who appeared in the forest look the same as the Orcs that were written in the myths of the past.

The leaders of each kingdom sighed for relief, realizing that they were not on the same page as Magi's concerns.

Relieved that the signs that appeared in his kingdom were not premonitions of a terrible disaster.

But it was too early to be reassured.

Rumors have been heard from everywhere. Among the rumors that were heard, there was something about an Orc that had already confirmed its existence, but there was something completely different about it.

The monster that attacked the town was found to be a Troll. A monster written in mythology as well. ”

“Ogre… A horrible cannibal monster known to have eaten countless humans in the past. ”

Human-eating monsters appear from everywhere. They were all ancient creatures that could be found together in the ancient records.

That wasn't the end.

Mermaids have been spotted at sea, and high mountain peaks show a mix of humans and birds called Harpies. In addition, countless new species have emerged and invaded the human realm.

It was like the world was returning to the age of myth. Of course, not all new beings appeared to be harmful to humans. Among them were mystical beings, such as fairies and elves. However, there were not many eyewitness accounts of creatures such as fairies and mortals.

Much more was said of the cannibal monsters.

There have been raids everywhere. Frequently attacked by Orcs, a group of actively returning merchants, and the stories of Trolls coming down to town and farmers captured in Ogres are heard fairly harshly.

By that time, the royal officers were aware of the seriousness of the situation and had the lords of the defense tackle the monsters.

But it wasn't easy. The beings that had returned from the past appeared endlessly, and were lacking to be dealt with by the military lords.

It was the same for the Adenberg Empire.

“The damage to the east and north is severe. Changebags are trying their best to stay safe, but the range of the raid is too wide. ”

Although it was the empire that dispatched the most troops to the Wall, the newly formed central force was still sufficient to defend the empire's vast territory.

Nevertheless, it was impossible to effectively respond to all of the overly extensive raids, so the request for support from the defense lords was centered.

“They're not just monsters. ”

A representative of the Queisha came to tell you about the attackers.

“I don't know why they came back all of a sudden, but they must have existed in the past and were one of the real species. ”

Before the continent became human, the advent of a species that had rightfully existed as the owner of the continent, Ophelia immediately identified the seriousness of the situation and told the wizards to look into the history.

The sorcerers who received the Empress's command came to a terrible conclusion after a few days.

“If all of the beings in the myth really existed, and they're back in the world now, this is just the beginning, ”

They insisted that there were numerous monsters in the past that could not even be compared to the monsters that have appeared to date, and that they needed to take immediate action.

Ofelia doesn't listen to the wizards. I immediately informed the entire continent of the current situation and prepared for the future. The Empire has also waited for knights and wizards to respond to the sudden disaster.

But time was not on man's side. The kingdoms of the continent that had been engulfed in a series of terrible wars revealed the powerful monsters that wizards had foreseen without a chance to prepare for the future.

“Granado and her fishing vessels were attacked by a giant snake! ”

“A monster larger than the castle has appeared in the northern part of Griffindor and is devastating the area! ”

The wizards are white-white enough to let you know the identity of the assailant as far as the damage has gone.

“The disaster of Leviathan, known as the ruler of the Namhae, and Behemoth. ”

The terrible beings who have destroyed countless kingdoms in the past have finally revealed themselves.

Behemos, who has come to Griffindor far away, has a second problem with Leviathan.

Whether he wasn't satisfied with raiding ships at sea, Leviathan attacked one of the empire's major ports, Lugenburg, and destroyed hundreds of ships on board.

“Records show that a thousand wizards and a thousand knights were not able to capture Behemoth, and that 500 fleets were destroyed by Leviathan. ”

“We must prevent Leviathan from ever coming ashore. If you go ashore, the same thing will happen to the entire Empire as it did to Lugenburg. ”

“If we don't stop them, the southern part of the empire will collapse." ”

Some weak wizards pretended to come to the end of the world.

“Another raid on Lugenburg territory! ”

After the first raid and only a day has passed, the Lugenburg area has been attacked again. The damage was caused by the shipwrecks sinking like before, so the Leviathan on the water completely destroyed the land and returned safely to sea.

The Southern lands of the empire adjacent to the sea have suffered terrible damage every day since then. It was surprisingly swift and violent.

“Your Majesty!"

“Where else were they attacked this time! ”

Ophelia, who had a headache at the appearance of a terrible monster, stiffens the messenger with a stiff face.

“That's not it... ”

However, the messenger's expression was strange.

“Leviathan has been critically wounded and repelled after raiding Harsburg territory! ”

When I was distracted by the unexpected messenger's words, I opened my eyes to the iron-clad woman who wouldn't change her face.

“That's... not someone you can defeat so easily! According to the records... ”

“Enough.”

Ophelia raises her hand and shuts her mouth, shouting with an unbelievable face that the wizard who was standing next to her.

“The Central Knights and Wizards that departed a few days ago could not have already reached the south, so there must have been some great force in Hasburg that I didn't know about. ”

The messenger heavily scowls at her.

“That's not it... ”

The strict knights beside you froze as they tried to rebuke the messenger.

“The Grand Duke has returned! ”

Beep beep.

The empress, who was unlikely to rise from the throne even after the palace collapsed, jumped to her feet.

“Tell me more. ”

The Empress's solemn command excites the messenger and continues to report.

“When the port of Harbour in Harsburg was ravaged by a Leviathan raid, something beautiful, like a mixture of gold and silver, suddenly dropped into the sky. Immediately afterwards, Leviathan was badly wounded and fled directly to the sea."

Then the lightning of gold and silver... ”

“It was said by Baron Hasburg that a beautiful and mystical creature, unlike anything else in the world, had never been seen before, but had a resemblance to the Viceroy's Redburn. ”

Ofelia closes her eyes and sits on the throne.

“You're back. He's finally back. ”

Ofelia, who repeated the same words several times in a trembling voice, asked the messenger late.

“They say the Grand Duke is invincible. ”

“That... the Grand Duke disappeared into the sea following the wounded Leviathan shortly after the battle. ”

The messenger frowns for a moment.

“Without saying a word. ”

“Baron Hasburg said he hadn't even seen the Duke's face. ”

Somehow, the messenger reports the staggering situation in the face of the cold empress and leaves like a runaway.

“Are you wearing a backlash? Once I go out in solitude, Gear will only come back when I've done my job. ”

* * *

“He's fast. ”

[Leviathan is a vicious beast who has eaten an immature young sea dragon in the past. His cunning is unspeakable.]

Kim Sun-hyuk, who was staring at the ocean, said with a sad face.

[As long as Leviathan hides himself in the sea, I cannot continue my pursuit.]

Perhaps Leviathan wasn't so easy to deal with for a winged dragon flying through the air. The first fatal injury was possible because Leviathan was halfway over the port, so Kim Sun-hyuk didn't think to pursue it any further.

But I didn't intend to let Leviathan go.

“If the Blugon regains his full power, will he be able to catch the Leviathan or something? ”
