Necromancer's Evolutionary Traits Chapter 18

Episode 18. The Barrier of Sloth and the past In

fact, it was unclear whether the opponent had an item related to ‘Nutrition’.

But I was able to infer enough.

If you didn’t have an item related to sin in the first place, you wouldn’t even mention the word ‘laziness’.

‘It’s a headache.’

I searched my memory and recalled what items were related to sin, especially sloth.

There weren’t that many sin-related items, so I was able to come up with one.

‘Codex Apocalypse.’

Collecting all of them was an item that summoned the final boss of the game.

Each consists of a main body and 7 torn and scattered pages, but each page was an item with tremendous power.

Most likely, the item the opponent had was a page of indolence in the Codex Apocalypse.

crash.

I retrace my path to avoid the onrushers and rejoin the crew.

It was only after joining once that they found out where their opponents were.

Fortunately, thanks to his steadily increasing stamina and athletic talent, he was able to easily avoid the zombie-like people and find Hajal and Vivian.

Fuhuaak!

“ah.”

Crimson veins of blood spread everywhere.

There was one madman running amok.

“Die, die, die, die… … .”

Vivian, who was covered in blood all over her body, was slaughtering the surroundings with swordsmanship like a ghost.

And Hazal was just watching, leaving Christopher on the floor with an expressionless face.

Even though it is a crisis situation, isn’t it too fast for your true nature to be revealed?

“Adrias?”

It was only then that Hazal found me and looked at me with a tilt of his head.

Then he soon began to pretend to be watching Christopher.

I’ll get along too.

“Now this… … ?”

I acted at the same time and asked questions like someone who didn’t know anything.

“It was all right. It seems that Vivian has lost her mind. It’s the first time I’ve seen something like that.”

When I saw Hajal acting embarrassed, where did the cold face from a while ago go, it was just disgusting.

“By the way, where did Assistant Ivy go?”

“I got hit. It must have been caught in a trap and imprisoned in a barrier.”

“Where is your opponent?”

“I’ll check again now.”

Vivian, who mercilessly cuts down those who rush at her, is scary, but the one who hides her true feelings like Hajal is more wary.

Should I say that the same side is more scary than the enemy?

First of all, I started with Mana Detect.

“Poor, pitiful, pitiful.”

“Do you know that those you are killing are good villagers?”

“This voice?”

Hazal looked around trembling as if he had heard it for the first time.

And I used this opportunity to concentrate as much as I could to try to find the source of the sound.

Provoking him to speak once again was a bonus.

“So what. Is it God’s will for you to kill, and will we be punished for killing us?”

『It’s a pity, a pity, a pity.』

『How can a young sentient being who has not even found a gap in the truth know the deep will of God?』 ‘

I found it.’

I didn’t know if it was a trap this time, but I figured out the location.

And that location, coincidentally, was where Ivy and I went a while ago.

It seems that the first place I found was right.

It’s just fine.

“Hasal.”

“yes. Did you find it?”

“I figured it out, but it’s the place where Assistant Ivy fell into a trap a while ago.”

“hmm.”

He seemed to think for a moment, then nodded.

“I will go alone. Vivian is running rampant here, so it probably won’t be too dangerous.”

“Hazal could be dangerous.”

“I know. But I can’t help it unless I’m the only one who can step out. Best regards Chris.”

He left that word and ran to the location I had pointed out.

Left alone, I fed Christopher the recovery and regeneration potions I had packed in my backpack while watching the back of Vivian, who went mad.

Boom boom!

People exploded again.

When I looked at Vivian with an uneasy mind, she was running around with a liquid that was unknown whether it was her own blood or the blood of the residents.

Vivian is also a pretty good character, other than that madness.

The reason she was able to become a character called Villain in the first place was because of her incredible combat power.

If it was a character who was simply crazy and couldn’t fight, I wouldn’t have bothered to remember it.

“Sorry. It wasn’t the materials that would be consumed like that.”

“Are you out?”

While checking Christopher’s condition, I naturally answered the voice that spoke to me.

“Aren’t you surprised?”

“I was just guessing.”

When I left Christopher and got up, a black magician appeared and was sitting on the roof across from me with a mask covering his face.

“Did you know?”

“Because I guess.”

Even though I knew, I sent hajal.

To be honest, hajal is not helpful and rather dangerous.

He was the kind of guy who would take us hostage and run away alone if things go wrong.

“Your colleague ran away a little while ago.”

What happened is beyond my expectations.

“okay?”

“I’m not surprised this time either.”

“Because he’s a useless guy.”

“Why are you so aloof? Have you accepted death?”

“die? I?”

I raised my head and looked at my opponent.

“I will never die. At least not here.”

“I don’t know what to believe and be so confident. But for now, I’ll treat that courage as virtual and give you an ordeal.”

test?

And before I could think of it, the same barrier that had imprisoned Ivy erupted from the floor and swallowed me.

* * *

“Kim Jinhwan.”

“check.”

what was it

I thought I was dreaming of something.

But now was not the time to dream.

I moved my body carefully following the team leader Kim Hyun-woo’s signal.

The point man, Jung Yong-ho, was already in the lead.

I followed Yong-ho hyung and stuck to the wall of the building, followed by Park Seong-bo, the youngest, on the opposite pillar.

‘The goal is to kill and immediately remove other characters from the scene.’

Soon, Yong-ho hyung started to climb the building wall cautiously while being on guard.

The special equipment attached to the hand made it possible to climb the outer wall of these buildings without incident.

I felt a strange sense of déjà vu as I watched the surroundings under him.

I’m sure you’ve experienced it somewhere… … .

A signal came from Yongho hyung, who had finished climbing the building.

I tried to focus on the mission and then started to climb the building.

It was then.

“Black!”

Gunshots rang out along with the team leader’s short and intense password slogan that the enemy had appeared.

Then, a huge explosion of unknown origin erupted, and my body was thrown away.

Tinnitus rang in my ears and my hair went white.

However, my body took out a pistol from my chest with a motion that was imprinted like a habit through repeated training.

It was difficult to identify friends and family.

It was a night operation, of course, so only the flames from the muzzle flickered in my field of vision.

When I touched his forehead, it seemed that the night gear had been blown away by the impact of the explosion.

bang! bang! bang!

Gunshots and shouts and screams.

I fired as it was while lying down.

And soon, he moved his body to find cover and engage in gunfights with invisible enemies.

I had to shoot with one hand because my left hand was uncomfortable, but I was not in a position to cover cold rice with hot rice.

After frantic shooting and screaming, the son-in-law finally calmed down.

I slowly looked around, thinking that God had helped me to survive.

The only thing that can be barely confirmed with the sight adapted to the darkness is that the building designated as the operation area has collapsed due to an explosion.

As I walked forward slowly, I saw people who had collapsed here and there.

bang! bang!

I checked and killed one by one and wandered around looking for my teammates.

“… … !”

A member of the team, dressed like me, was lying down.

I wanted to check it like a chimney, but first, securing the safety of the surroundings was the priority.

Finally, after confirming kills of all enemies, I went back.

I approached the first team member I found and checked his breathing and pulse.

‘… … .’

It was still warm, but that was all.

He lifted his mask and confirmed his identity.

Sungbo was the youngest.

“This fucking castle. How could you go ahead of me?”

I took his night vision goggles with a mumble, unable to speak out loud.

Since we were a top-secret unit, we couldn’t carry anything to confirm our identity, let alone a dog tag.

I had no choice but to bring night vision goggles, but I put my emotions aside and wandered around looking for other team members.

The team members were like family.

They were the only relationships I had without a family, and they were people I couldn’t give up.

And my heart broke every time I found the bodies of my teammates.

“ぅ.”

The crying I had to hold back was so sad that my bones would ache.

will i just die

If I die here, I might end up as a warrior during the mission.

The pistol in my hand went into my mouth.

The sharp smell of gunpowder penetrated his mouth.

“Who there… … .”

faintly audible Korean.

I drew the pistol and turned my head.

Among the rubble of the collapsed building, I saw Yongho-hyung with his mask removed.

I hurriedly ran and carefully cleared the rubble to get Yongho hyung out.

His condition was not very good.

My hands trembled as I looked like I was about to die.

“Who are you, Jinhwan?”

“uh.”

“This Sheki. don’t tremble I can feel everything trembling. I’m not dying man.”

“okay.”

I let go of my motionless left hand and managed to get out of the scene with my right hand on my back.

can i live Will the enemies come after me?

how to escape

“Jinhwan.”

“why.”

“You are not like that.”

tall. My footsteps stopped.

“You did nothing wrong.”

Facts that had been denied began to surface.

night shooting.

It was a situation where it was impossible to identify friends and family.

Did all the bullets I shot go only to the enemy?

“You did nothing wrong. Even if I die.”

“Yong-ho hyung.”

“Why is this sheki?”

The lump in my heart that I had not been able to erase so far dug into my heart.

At the same time, I realized the identity of the deja vu I felt a while ago.

‘This is not reality.’

Why?

It’s because I made a promise not too long ago.

‘family.’

Even for new families.

I was determined to get out of the past that was weighing me down.

I had no reason to worry about this again.

I do not overturn the troubles and decisions I made once.

That’s why this place isn’t real.

After realizing that, I noticed that this place was a barrier created by a black magician.

“I actually regretted it a lot.”

“hmm?”

“I regretted a lot and reflected a lot. So even after my brother was discharged, I continued to stay in the unit and carry out my mission. But I mean.”

“… … .”

“Already let go. Now that I am a new person, I want to start over.”

It’s a fact that I tried to forget, but I can’t forget the past.

However, he decided to live as Adrias, and the past he had already destroyed in half.

Thanks to that, I came to my senses and quietly put Yongho hyung down.

“I will live without regrets this time.”

“okay? Anybody?”

“As I like.”

Birds struggle to get out of eggs. The egg is the world.

Whoever wants to be born must destroy a world.

While repeating the phrase Hesse left, I aimed my pistol at the guy who looked like Yongho hyung.

“I will move forward. I do not sit down in a place like this.”
