Ranker's Return-Chapter 872

Chapter 872

All types of bones started to roll over the walls, and the flaky rotting flesh exploded.

[An enhanced dark skeleton has been killed.]

[Experience has been acquired.]

[An enhanced dark skeleton archer has been killed.]

[Experience has been acquired.]

[A corpse that has been eroded by darkness has been killed.]

[Experience has been acquired.]

The message windows announcing the monsters killed appeared in front of Hyeonu’s eyes. Just then, Hyeonu raised his left hand high and extended it toward the city walls.

“Run!” Gang Junggu shouted at the members of New World upon seeing Hyeonu’s signal.

“Break down the gates!”

“The walls are blocked by Alley Leader. We will kill the undead coming out of the walls.”

“There is no need to enter. Just block the gates!”

Those with high positions in New World gave orders to the other guild members. It was a strategy that Hyeonu developed in a short time after discussing it with Gang Junggu and Kim Seokjung. The top of the walls would be left to Hyeonu while the others would break through the gate.

The members of New World quickly reached the front of the gates. Then they immediately swung their weapons. All forms of pure energies struck the gates. The gates shook like they would explode every time they were hit by the pure energies. Eventually, a short period of time later, the gates were smashed.

-Wow, what is this?

-What am I seeing?

-Are they all monsters?

-From this perspective, there are so many. It is like watching a movie.

The scene inside the gates was overwhelming. There was no empty space. It was filled with skeletons boasting white bones and other types of undead. The New World guild members and the undead looked at each other.

-Isn’t this completely a movie?

-It reminds me of an old movie.

-Ah, I think I know what you are talking about.

-That movie where they fought with a shield, right?

The viewers recalled a scene from a movie—hundreds of warriors fighting against the invasion of a great power.

‘Okay, the wall is broken.’

Hyeonu watched the scene and had a completely different sentiment. He had no excitement and only calculated the usefulness of what he saw.

‘Even if there is no guardian... There must be one...’

Hyeonu was looking for something. A boss monster…

What Hyeonu was looking for was a boss monster.

‘I don’t think Edward would’ve played a joke.’

Before the war resumed, Hyeonu opened the map and had an in-depth conversation with Edward. How would the war in the future be resolved?

‘I found it.’

Hyeonu smiled brightly. An undead with a uniquely different shape entered Hyeonu’s eyes.

-Why are you staying still?

-Show us some of what you are thinking.

-What ASMR is this? Why am I only hearing sound?

-No, no. A flashing light is also shown. Loooool ㅋㅋㅋ.

The viewers spoke to Hyeonu, who was standing on the empty walls and watching the city quietly.

“Ah, I’m sorry everyone. I was looking for something.” Hyeonu bowed slightly toward the viewers. He was so obsessed with finding the boss monster that he forgot he was streaming.

-Looking for something? What is it?

-Are there any treasures here?

-Or perhaps a hidden NPC who gives quests?

-Could there be such an NPC?

The viewers immediately shifted their attention to Hyeonu’s words. It was clear that it could not be ordinary if Hyeonu was looking for it.

Hyeonu shook his head. “It isn’t like that. I was looking for a boss monster. In the end, whether I can take back the city depends on killing the boss monster.”

It wasn’t an action to gain something like the chat window guessed. This was a regular tactic. He planned to kill the boss monster and capture the city.

-You are looking for a boss monster?

-From the start?

-Aren’t there many undead?

-It seems like it would take one day to find the boss.

The viewers couldn’t understand Hyeonu’s actions. In general, a boss monster would be raided at the end once all the small fries were cleaned up. It wasn’t about fighting the boss monster among so many monsters.

“I’ve already found the boss monster, everyone. You don’t have to worry about it at all.”

-You found it?

-Where?𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

-How do you know it is a boss monster?

-Does it look like it?

“Yes, you can see it when you look at it. It says boss monster on its forehead.”

Hyeonu stretched out the Mixed Sky Sword in front of him.

“Look closely at where the tip of the sword is pointing. You will see something with a lot of personality.”

The viewers’ eyes moved along Hyeonu’s fingertips and followed the Mixed Sky Sword. At the spot where the Mixed Sky Sword was pointing, the viewers saw the giant skeleton horses and skeleton soldiers riding the skeleton horses.

-Is that it? Is it different alone?f𝚛e𝗲𝔀e𝚋𝑛o𝘃𝒆𝗹.c𝗼𝒎

-Yes, it is noticeable.

-Isn’t that too much of a boss monster?

-By the way, don’t the undead here look much better than the kids in the castle?

The viewers quickly found the boss monster that Hyeonu spoke of. There was one skeleton that stood out among the imposing skeleton knights. It was riding a skeleton horse that was one meter taller than the other skeleton horses. This was the boss monster Hyeonu was talking about.

“I don’t know if it just looks strong or if it really is strong. However, one thing is for sure. All the undead here are going to die today.”

Hyeonu kicked off from the wall with this confident declaration and jumped high into the sky.

‘As long as I can hold them off... New World won’t be in danger.’

Hyeonu told the viewers that he wasn’t sure about the strength, but he had a feeling about it. The difference between what could be seen indirectly through the live stream and what was actually seen was revealed here. The skeleton knights seen over here weren’t monsters that New World could handle. It might be different if they were the only ones here, but now the undead were swarming like grains of sand on the beach.

The Mixed Sky Sword released a line of purple pure energies, and a purple pure energy flew toward the huge skeleton knight. The skeleton knights saw the pure energies flying with eerie momentum, and their eye sockets flashed with light. Then they strongly grabbed hold of the skeleton horses’ reins. The skeleton horses raised their heads and flew into the air.

-So cool.

-I have a feeling.

-This is something to be watched again and again in A-World.

-This is the coolness of a man.

It was spectacular to see more than a dozen skeleton horses jumping at the same time. The viewers were amazed to see it. However, their admiration didn’t stop there. The skeleton horses blew out an endless breath from their mouth, creating a dark membrane.

The black shield started to block the pure energies that Hyeonu fired, but it was only for a moment. The shield split into hundreds in an instant. It turned into fine fragments and disappeared. However, the brief time that the shield earned was invaluable.

The skeleton horses once again landed on the ground, and the skeleton knights on top of them wielded weapons covered with black magic power. Loud explosions filled the city.

“It was blocked,” Hyeonu muttered as he looked at the place where the dust cloud had formed.

-Isn’t it more exaggerated that you thought it would work?

-Just by looking at them, they are more than the named level...

-It is even more frightening that an attack has to be blocked by dozens of named monsters. ㅋㅋㅋ

-How strong is he? ㅋㅋㅋ.

The viewers laughed when they heard Hyeonu muttering to himself. It was already absurd that his attack had to be blocked by more than a dozen named monsters.

‘The boss monster didn’t even move?’ Hyeonu accepted the current situation coldly. The reality was different from what the viewers’ admired. It didn’t matter how many named monsters stopped his attacks. The important thing was that the skeleton knight, presumed to be the boss monster, didn’t move.

‘I’ll have to get rid of the named ones first.’

Hyeonu devised a strategy. It was a regular tactic without anything special. He decided that he would first get rid of the obstacles in the vicinity of the boss monster. Hyeonu crossed the air and landed on the head of a huge corpse. There was a strong explosion, and the corpse’s head was crushed in half.

Hyeonu used the repulsive force from the explosion and jumped forward more quickly. Another explosion occurred on the head of the huge corpse. Hyeonu narrowed the distance to the skeleton knight in the same way. Nevertheless, it wasn’t just Hyeonu who was moving.

The skeleton knights that Hyeonu was aiming for also started to move. The moment the skeleton knights moved, the undead in front of them opened up a path. As a result, a straight path was created between Hyeonu and the skeleton knights.

‘Clearing the way?’

“You made a mistake, you jerks.”

Hyeonu felt his blood boil for the first time in a while. In recent times, he had always fought against opponents stronger than him. Therefore, no matter how strong he became, the fights were always hard.

“Those who can’t even hold a fist...”

The corners of Hyeonu’s mouth twisted. Then he immediately pulled out the skill he had saved.

‘Acknowledged Giant.’

[Acknowledged Giant has been used.]

[All stats have increased.]

A purple aura exploded from Hyeonu’s body, but the skeleton knights didn’t care about the change in Hyeonu. They just focused on what they were going to do. The skeleton horses smashed against the ground like crazy while the skeleton knights prepared to wield their weapons at Hyeonu.

Finally, one skeleton knight reached Hyeonu’s side and swung his sword sharply. A black pure energy cut through the space.

Hyeonu avoided the skeleton knight’s blow just by leaning back. At the same time, he didn’t forget to fight back. Hyeonu swung the Mixed Sky Sword from left to right. The pure energy formed around the Mixed Sky Sword suddenly grew larger and longer in the brief moment when the sword moved.

The purple pure energy passed right through the joints of the skeleton horses. Dozens of skeleton horses snorted at the same time with a creepy sound.

-If a skeleton knight loses its horse, its power will plummet.

-As expected, Alley Leader knows how to fight. He started with the weaknesses.

-Does he have the solution right in his head?

-I wonder what type of games he played in the past. Is it just engraved in his bones?

The viewers admired Hyeonu’s battle, which was both splendid and practical. In their eyes, Hyeonu seemed to know how to deal with all monsters.

-Yet putting aside the knowledge of how to kill it, he sliced them all in one blow.

-I think the magic power that burst out earlier was probably a buff?

-As expected, there is nothing to hide if you want to fight against a group of named monsters like that. You have to take it all out.

-That’s right. Is there anything hidden here? Then he wouldn’t be a human.

The viewers were once again amazed by Hyeonu’s formidable offensive power that achieved great results with just one attack. However, that time was really short. The battle was still going on. The skeleton knights jumped off the skeleton horses without panicking. They didn’t just land on the ground. They targeted Hyeonu and swung their weapons from all sides. More than a dozen waves occurred.

No matter how one looked at it, there seemed to be no gap to escape. Therefore, Hyeonu chose to defend rather than evade. Moreover, he chose the best form of defense.

Purple mirrors appeared behind the backs of the rushing skeleton knights. The mirrors soon started to release so many swords that it was difficult to count them.
