Episode 158.
Dweisir, the god of the legion, once talked to Jung Si-woo himself when Jung Si-woo killed Kenato and retrieved her holy object. At the time, she declared her defeat but said that the other gods wouldn’t give up. Perhaps that was what she was saying about her opponent at Potupou at the time, Paeto. Otherwise, they would have decided to retreat after Jung Si-woo showed up and killed Kim Ha-ryong.
[The road is open. History will begin in this land.]
[Follow his orders. This small land must first be made entirely of his own.]
Jung Si-woo asked in curiosity as he saw the monsters coming out of Paeto’s command.
“Why did you choose an island, not open land?”
[Foolish man, don’t you know that it’s as hard to get out as we are to get in?]
“Oh, you’re trying to build a small kingdom to avoid human restraint.”
Well, most of the islands around the world were now occupied by monsters. No matter how hard the players flew, it was difficult to maintain all that land.
“Is that why it’s Jeju Island? Some humans can be made believers of the God of Fire, but it is somewhat distanced….”
To be exact, Jeju Island was the only island that Kim Ha-ryong, who lost his wings and was being concentrated on by the WPC, could visit. He always thought that a villain would work meticulously, but Kim Ha-ryong was clumsy to the end. He briefly mourned the fate of the extras and raised his head. The Devil’s Judgment naturally increased in size, throwing up a threatening black spark from the end.
“But once you’ve called me in, it’s all over.”
[The speed from sensing the anomaly to reaching this place, and the power a while ago, he is amazing…how long will it last?]
Everyone had a weakness. There was no way that there wasn’t a gap in the muscular strength strengthened by the eruption of mana, which was too overwhelming for the body to withstand. Paeto was so sure, and the monsters who followed Paeto’s orders believed it. That was their most fatal mistake.
“Whoa, before that, you guys will be done.”
[Hahaha…do you think you can stop all of us who have waited for this day? Engrave the righteousness of Paeto on this earth. Burn everything and turn it into white ash!]
Jung Si-woo decided not to correct their misunderstanding. The monsters coming out through the gate were strong enough to take the earth, and the proportion of elites was high as they moved under the order of Paeto.
“Oh, Caina, Yong Se-ha! All we have to do is not let them escape!”
“Then I’d better call Lee Seo-hee.”
“Oh, good. That’s it.”
[Hahaha, fools, do you think we have not figured out your means of contact?]
One of the monsters, who stepped back from the hammer wielded by Jung Si-woo, smiled wickedly, emitting an offensive force. The most important thing in controlling Jeju Island was disconnecting it from the outside world! The first thing Kim Ha-ryong did after cutting off Jung Si-woo’s ghosts was to destroy the means of communication between Jeju Island and the outside world.
And soon, a physical barrier would also be built by the monsters. After finishing off Jung Si-woo and his party!
“All right, I called.”
[Hmm!? He lied so easily…]
As soon as Jung Si-woo realized that he needed her here, he immediately gave instructions to the ghost he had attached to Lee Seo-hee. Fortunately, she was outside, not in a dungeon, so she began to move along with the ghost.
“You’ll know if it’s a lie or not…well, let’s start by ourselves.”
[Deceit from a mere human…I’ll kill you!]
The deep mountain valley of Hallasan Mountain, surrounded by monsters, out of reach of civilization. Breaking down and burning the forest so thick that the sky was invisible, the monsters rushed to cut the throat of a single human being. Jung Si-woo wiped them all out with his hammer, praying that there would be no major fire.
“Si-woo!”
“Si-woo, sorry for being late!”
Thirty minutes later, Lee Seo-hee, Marina, and Seria arrived at his call.
“Sorry, Siwoo!”
[What!?]
“No, it’s not too late.”
All that was needed was Lee Seo-hee, but come to think of it, these three were going around together these days. Jung Si-woo neatly ignored Marina and Seria, who glared at Lee with questioning eyes to ask why he contacted Lee Seo-hee as their representative.
[How can you call for reinforcements…! What, a ghost?!]
[Is he a slave of Setnak?!]
[No, more than that…]
A Flame Minotaur, who reached level 250, muttered as he jumped back from the hammer wielded by Jung Si-woo.
[How does he stay strong for such a long time…!]
“Go to hell and ask the Lord of the Underworld! Gigantify!”
[Gah!]
Jung Si-woo never missed an opening. This was because the second time they met was more annoying than the first time. The Minotaur was struck by the giant hammer, turning into a red rain. Through his ability, the damage was delivered to monsters within 20 meters of the perimeter. It was really funny to see monsters stepping back in unison as if a shock wave had hit them.
“What, not coming at me?”
Jung Si-woo grinned as he recalled the sledgehammer into its medium state. Since he arrived at Jeju Island, his power was activated, giving him terrible strength. The monsters didn’t realize that he suffered a penalty in the middle, so…
[We can beat him…isn’t there any way…?]
[P-Paeto isn’t lying! He’ll face his limitations.]
[But the limit is…crack!]
Jung Si-woo mashed their heads in one by one. Now that close combatants Caina and Yong Se-ha and distant combatants Marina and Seria had joined, there was no gap in their formation!
[Not like this. We have to change the battlefield somehow.]
[This position is for us to step down…!?]
Of course, it was impossible to escape. Jung Si-woo called Lee Seo-hee in the first place because he wanted to prevent them from running away!
“Sigh…!”
Lee Seo-hee spread her wings that reflected moonlight transparently, spreading her magic everywhere. Mana’s crystal, which resembled her wings and glittered like transparent glass crystals, enveloped the whole area, putting pressure on all the monsters in it.
“Battle Field!”
“That’s a lovely name, isn’t it!?”
Along with Marina and Seria, Lee Seo-hee cleared the sky castle dungeon and learned various arts. Just as Paeto’s subordinates tried to isolate Jeju Island from the outside world, they were now trapped so that they couldn’t escape.
“Hmmm…haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Finally, in the completed ring, Jung Si-woo ran wild. Every time the sledgehammer shone in the moonlight, monsters bounced off with terrible screams, and violence exploded out in all directions. Even though they had already been running around for more than 30 minutes, he seemed to have no limitations to his physical strength and magic. All the more so in that, it had a terrible level of strength.
[Level up]
[Strike skill became Lv7. The effective range of the skill is extended to 30m.]
“All right, there’s only a few left.
[Hey, you monster…!]
Dweseir’s declaration of defeat to Jung Si-woo came when he couldn’t handle his power yet and couldn’t defeat Kenato alone, so he had to borrow Yong Se-ha’s power. At that time, he said he wouldn’t be able to overcome him at the lower world level, but now Jung Si-woo had become ridiculously strong compared to that moment. Therefore, no matter what kind of god he faced, they wouldn’t be able to surpass Jung Si-woo on this earth.
Just maintaining his strength right now had increased his speed and strength by 1.5 times, so his overall skills had more than doubled!
[You’re not…are you already one of Hecto’s believers?!]
“I don’t know a god by that name!”
[How can he…crack!]
Jung Si-woo didn’t listen until the end. He didn’t know what level it was, but it probably didn’t matter. He managed to leave a mana stone as he burst into pieces. Jung Si-woo murmured as he retrieved his hammer.
“There’s a downside to maintaining the strength skills. If the body isn’t hard enough, there would be nothing left.”
“And the downside is that it’s all dirty now.”
There were no more monsters appearing in the gate. No, more precisely, the gate was disappearing. What this meant was that Paeto also conceded defeat and retreated.
“Look at the way they’re holding you back, so you can’t even go after me. But I guess being a god and all; it doesn’t mean you haven’t learned anything.”
“Si-woo, what have you done to make yourself so strong…no, never mind.”
While Jung Si-woo was cursing to himself while looking for traces of the gate, Marina, who confirmed no monsters around, approached Jung Si-woo before quickly quieting down. The reason was that she saw through the fact that she would be the only one who would be annoyed.
“The intention of the gods aside, I thought the occurrence of the gate couldn’t be their way, but it was caused by the body of those who were instilled in the gods’ power…that’s a shock.”
On the other hand, Seria seemed to pay more attention to how such a division occurred in Jeju Island. Soon this would be known to the whole WPC through her, and it could guide how to treat those with divine power.
“Uh, but the communication…”
“It’s stuck right now. Perhaps soon, the gods’ influence will be completely gone, and communication will be possible, so just wait.”
Jung Si-woo laughed and stretched when he saw Seria trying to communicate in a hurry. He was quite busy running around during skill training, but the result was quite satisfying.
“Whoa, it’s a good experience, though. How the gods open gates, how they manipulate gates to their advantage….”
It was still a story limited to Paeto, but he learned a little bit about how the gods were trying to invade the world. Knowing that made it easy to formulate a strategy for how to stop them. And above all else, he found that he could use his Super Strength skill in practice. It wasn’t enough to say that he completely overcame the aftereffects, but he was convinced that at least he wouldn’t be in trouble by taking a surprise attack from the enemy when he was in a penalty state. He felt a little gratitude for Paeto for realizing that.
“Alright, now you can train your skills around the dungeon.”
“So Si-woo became so strong because of his skills?”
In the meantime, Marina, who had heard the situation from Soo Ah-Rin, was dumbfounded and stared at Jung Si-woo blankly.
“I can’t believe you just trusted your solid body and continued to use that skill to raise the level despite the terrible pain and aftereffects… it’s like your skills of transcendental regeneration that only high-ranking monsters have.”
“What kind of skills do we need to have? If you die holding out, you die, and if you don’t, you’re strong.”
“…”
What level had Jung Si-woo’s naturally strong body reached? Marina was stunned by his words, body, but she decided to shut up because she was afraid to listen.
“Hey…Si-woo.”
Lee Seo-hee’s incredible voice woke up the party, who had grown silent.
“It looks like monsters are watching from the outside…?”
