The Live

Sky...

The Black Sword slits the dead man's throat.

Tuck, tuck, tuck.

The dead drop their necks on the rain-dropped ground.

I cut off five throats, but the dead came to Yun Jae without hesitation.

They had no fear of death.

‘A lot of them. ’

Fath-

Yoon Jae jumped up.

Then he rushes forward, striking the black sword.

Squeaking - Squeaking -

I cut off the black hair that constantly stands in the way of my eyes. Occasionally, when I see the dead reaching for the body, I throw them off without missing.

The energy emitted from the dead bodies could not even be protected by 'getting hard’.

‘Hardening’ is a skill that can protect the body from physical attacks in the first place, not related to the energy emitted from the dead.

How many have you killed? ’

Yoon Jae looked at the castle not far away.

‘Soon. ’

Acknowledge -

From the inside of the forest to here.

He slashes the dead in front of him.

I didn't have a clue how many I cut. I think I've cut hundreds.

He was able to feel his feet on the other side and how strong he had become. There was no shortage of being truly superhuman.

Boom.

Yoon Jae grabbed the dead man's head by his hand.

Qajik-!

Then I smashed it straight down.

The skull of a broken dead man splits open.

I suddenly threw my hand away, not my sword. Your hands burn. The dead body itself is a deadly poison.

‘Normal swords wouldn't have made it. ’

It was a good thing the sword in your hand was a black sword.

If it were an ordinary sword, it would have been corroded and would have been useless.

‘But I found it. ’

Skagaaganga-

Once more, three dead men rushed around him, slashed and rolled on the ground.

Yoon Jae smiled at the many dead around him.

‘The Plague of the Dead. ’

His gaze is towards the forest behind the dead.

‘The dead don't just show up. ’

They're not a natural disaster, and they don't just show up for no reason.

No, there were even natural disasters.

The dead from the woods.

Max says the soldiers who went into the forest never made it back.

It was worth it.

‘I almost died if I did something wrong. ’

As he went forward with the dead, Yoon Jae suddenly approached the gate.

There were traces of corrosion all over the armor. Yoon Jae quickly drove out the energy of the dead that had seeped into his bones through 'Tough Life.’

The eastern gate is open.

Yoon Jae quickly went into it. The followers try to get in together.

“Where are you going to come in? ”

Skyscraper -

The downward sword splits the heads of the chasing dead in half.

Kung-

At the same time, the slightly opened gate was closed again.

The dead knock on the gate outside, and the soldiers start shooting arrows at the dead.

“Phew -”

Only sighed, Yoon Jae leaned against the wall for a moment.

“What the hell is going on? ”

I couldn't rest.

It's because he knew Yoon Jae was back and went straight to meet Max.

Yoon Jae, who was about to take a breath for a moment, stood straight up to Max's appearance.

“Found it.”

“What do you mean? ”

“Why the dead showed up. ”

Max's eyes widened in response to Yoon Jae's answer.

“Well, is that true? ”

If we could find out what caused it, we could prevent the dead from appearing.

If I did, I could escape the same situation as this disaster.

“Well, come on, tell me. ”

In Max's haste, Yoon Jae recalls what happened in the forest.

* * *

I went deeper into the forest, but all I could see was rotting black bushes and trees.

Nothing has changed.

Yoon Jae looked around and sighed.

"Is that a lie?"

Maybe he's wrong.

A plague of the dead.

I thought the purpose of this tutorial was to find it and remove its sprouts.

However, no matter how hard I looked, I couldn't see a single still alive grass.

“...... There's really nothing. ”

Yoon Jae looked up at the sky.

The clouds are closing in.

At this rate, the dead will soon begin to appear again.

‘Maybe you can see something in that scene. ’

He had yet to see the scene of the dead.

If you can see it, you might know something.

Shall we wait? ’

It was a big risk.

If you do something wrong, you might end up trapped among a lot of dead people.

What if, really, the dead show up from all over the place at the same time the sun goes down?

‘It's gonna be bad. ’

Yoon Jae, who was worried, paused for a moment.

‘…… it will work somehow. ’

Yoon Jae believed in his skills.

Thanks to Zahar's shackles and the new magical power source, the lack of magical power has been somewhat resolved.

The basic stats, such as strength, stamina, and agility, have also increased to an unparalleled extent.

The slow dead can withstand hundreds, no matter how threatening their energy may be.

Fleeing to the castle while slaughtering the dead was dangerous, but it was definitely worth a try.

‘Waiting.’

Yoon Jae waited until the dead showed up.

Inside the woods, where the dead show up.

Tuk-

Soon, the raindrops fell on Yun Jae's face.

at the same time as him.

Squawk, Squawk-

You hear a small wind coming from a distance.

Usually, it was just too small a sound.

However, I felt a bit strange to think it was just the sound of the wind.

What is it?

Yoon Jae slowly approached the direction of the sound.

Hiding among the rotting trees, he carefully approaches, revealing a small clearing inside the forest.

A lot of people had never seen it before in a clearing made of trees.

‘People? Why are you here……. ’

Several people who have pressed down on the black robe.

There were about ten of them sitting in a circle around the clearing.

I wanted to talk to him, but I stopped.

Unlike the people I met at the castle, they had a strange feeling.

‘The energy of the dead. ’

I felt the fraud from the dead in the living.

Could it be that Rob is a dead man, not a man?

Yoon Jae slowly watched them.

Let's do it.

Ooh, ooh, ooh-

A small tremor begins in the middle of the surrounding lobbyists.

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-

Heh-heh. Heh-heh. Heh-heh.

The reverberation grew rapidly.

At the same time, a round line forms on the ground.

The purple lines were connected to each other. The lobbyists became each dot and made a line that connects them.

Immediately, black things appeared in the center.

Iron Puck...

Shut up-

A skeleton made of black bones.

Yoon Jae's eyes sparkled on its appearance.

‘The dead.’

A dead man appears.

In the circle.

The once-in-a-generating ghosts continue to come out of the line.

Like ghosts crawling up from underground, they emerge from the circle beneath the void.

‘Did they... summon the dead?' ’

Yoon Jae grips the sword.

‘If I kill them... ’

We can stop the dead from being summoned.

It was just when Yoon Jae was about to move.

“I'll go get the rat first. ”

A voice comes from a lobbyist's mouth.

Then the eyes of ten lobbyists all turned to the direction where Yoon Jae was hiding.

“Kill him.”

At the same time as it fell.

Fur-Seok-

Under Yoon Jae's feet, the dead man's hands reached out and grabbed his ankles.

Wook-sin...

Yoon Jae, who had both ankles, felt pain straightaway.

Evil, sacred...

Yoon Jae swiftly swings his sword and cuts off the dead man's hand. He quickly stepped back and ripped off the hand that was holding his ankle.

“Damn……. ”

Meanwhile, the summoned dead came all together against Yoon Jae.

Although they were summoned within a short period of time, the number seemed to be tens. Even at this moment, the dead were being summoned to the rope.

Do we have to fight? ’

Can we beat ten robes through that many dead?

Yoon Jae didn't know how strong Robbins were. Moreover, even at this moment, the dead were constantly being summoned.

‘... I should step back. ’

The conflict was not long.

No matter how strong you get, it's not enough to kill the Robbes through all those dead people.

Yoon Jae turned around. The followers scatter and begin to chase after Yun Jae.
