The Game of the Greatest Black Mage-Chapter 356
Chapter 356
The Intelligence Knights, who rushed in individually, seemed to charge towards Seonghyun at first, but they suddenly poured attacks on the dark red blood drops that had appeared.
They judged them as obstacles and intended to clear them first.
And that judgment was excellent.
Seonghyun likewise snapped his fingers as he watched them rushing at his blood drops.
The dark red blood drops emitted an ominous black aura and turned into awls, stretching out long in the air towards the knights.
Spikes stretching out like the Yeouibong seen in legends.
Even though they saw it, the Intelligence Knights moved quickly and dodged all the spikes like shadows.
It wasn't just that there were many of them; they were not skilled enough to fall for simple linear movements.
The Intelligence Knights, having dodged everything, rushed at Seonghyun first.
Pat! Pabat!
In front of the Intelligence Knights who narrowed the distance at once, blood drops suddenly appeared again, and unlike before, bright red blood appeared, turning into blood swords boasting sharp blades and shooting at them.
Pyupyupyut!
At the hundreds of swords appearing in an instant, the Intelligence Knights widened the distance again and lifted their swords to block them.
However, although they retreated, Haldrin looked at the spikes that were still maintained and unfolded swordsmanship imbued with an aura like a shadow.
Then, the shadow-like aura stretched out like a shadow before a long-trailing sun, sweeping the surroundings in an instant, and the dark red spikes shattered to pieces at once.
Certainly, a powerful skill that made a peculiar light shine in Seonghyun's eyes.
“Th-that’s amazing.”
As Varen, who was merely watching the situation, said that.
His viewers also had no choice but to agree without rebuke.
-Wow, that short exchange just now passed so fiercely;;
-Only admiration comes out.
-How much psychology went into that short exchange just now shudder.
-Crazy. But who are they?
-Dunno? Demon King said they were Intelligence Knights???
-Anyone know them????
Due to the newly appeared experts, the viewers also seemed extremely excited.
They expected a battle with a boss, but for such a battle to occur suddenly.
From the viewers' perspective, there was no better situation than this.
Meanwhile, Haldrin, who couldn't narrow the distance at all, signaled with his eyes as if it couldn't be helped, and then the Intelligence Knights suddenly began to stand in a line and started running straight towards Seonghyun.
Pabababa.
Distance covered quickly.
And Seonghyun also drew up blood again as if acknowledging it.
A fierce blood storm swirled and pressured the Intelligence Knights, but the Intelligence Knight enduring at the front fell back, and as they fell back one by one in turn, Haldrin, who remained last, was able to reach the range where he could attack Seonghyun.
As Haldrin swung his sword like that, Seonghyun's body turned into blood water at once, and blood condensed in one of the spaces where the blood storm was raging.
Seonghyun appeared there.
Blood Lord.
In other words, since Seonghyun could be called the Emperor of Vampires.
He could also do things like this.
What he had shown so far was merely the application of attacks, and if continued from here, the methods of attack would become endless.
For example.
Wriggle, wriggle.
“Oh, as expected, this is possible too.”
As Seonghyun muttered that, the blood storm condensed and soon formed the shapes of four people.
The people made of that blood water all took on Seonghyun’s appearance, looking just like clones.
However, they were holding different weapons: one held a staff shining with blood-light, another a spear shining with blood-light, and the remaining two held a sword and a bow shining with blood-light.
Two ranged, one mid-range, and one close-range.
Haldrin narrowed his eyes and glared at them.
Although his emotions had been castrated, he knew well that the situation was unfavorable.
Exercising caution, he signaled with his eyes and grouped up with the Intelligence Knights.
They were all holding swords, but perhaps not thinking they were at a disadvantage, they grouped up at once and charged.
And at the same time they charged, the blood clones Seonghyun created moved as well.
Pabababa—
Tadadadak—
The blood clones, moving quickly and lightly, were slightly faster, and the first to charge among them was the Spear Clone.
As the Spear Clone rushed in first, utilizing its superior reach to target one of the Intelligence Knights and thrust the spear.
One of the Intelligence Knights tried to swing his sword to deflect it upon seeing it.
However, as if pressing down on the extended spear, the Sword Clone pressed down on him while simultaneously running forward as if shot out, and seeing that, another Intelligence Knight hurriedly blocked the Sword Clone.
Chaeaeng——!
With a sharp metallic sound, the Intelligence Knight blocking the Sword Clone felt his wrist tingling and quickly retreated.
At the same time, just as the Intelligence Knight whom the Spear Clone first targeted moved to cut the Sword Clone, something wedged between them with a sharp sound, and the Intelligence Knight had no choice but to retreat.
Hwiik——.
A blood-red arrow piercing the spot where the Intelligence Knight had been until just a moment ago, accompanied by a fierce sound.
And just as one of the Intelligence Knights tried to attack that spot again, blood magic was fired from behind, interfering with even that.
Haldrin crumpled his face watching the battle situation.
Even just one clone had skills similar to an Intelligence Knight.
But when he tried to step forward, the two ranged clones behind interfered.
The two were intensively interfering with Haldrin, and the remaining melee and mid-range clones dealt with the remaining three knights, with the two ranged clones often providing cover, maintaining an equal balance.
Chaejaeng—!
Chaengaengaeng——!!!
As the battle dragged on longer than expected, Haldrin, perhaps judging that this wouldn't do anymore, gave an order to the Intelligence Knights.
“Take the pill!”
Shouting so, Haldrin moved quickly to block the Spear Clone and Sword Clone while also blocking the check from the other ranged clones.
The remaining three Intelligence Knights fell back, took the pills they had each brought, and tossed them into their mouths.
The pill Haldrin had intended to use at the beginning.
Upon eating that pill.
The aura of the Intelligence Knights began to burst out explosively at once.
-Wow that works too shudder.
-Crazy doping???
-What is that!??!
-Is that a drug? No what is it???
-??????That looks like what demon worshippers use???
-I've seen that too;;;
Some viewers were able to figure out what it was upon seeing it.
A drug that explosively increases demonic energy for a certain period.
However, it was a forbidden drug that caused the user to lose their vitality all at once when that time ended.
And.
-If they are Intelligence Knights, aren't they from the Rieskan Kingdom side?
-Shudder looks like it?
-No, did they just take the pill used by demon worshippers there????
-Wow what kind of huge plot twist is this????
Viewers who realized they were the Intelligence Knights from the Rieskan Kingdom side.
The Intelligence Knights didn't know that, but they exerted their full power to fight a life-or-death battle.
And although one was taken, Haldrin also fell back and took out a pill he had kept separately and showed himself taking it too.
Then Haldrin, with demonic energy leaking out as if to explode, looked at Seonghyun and the others and spoke.
“Keuheueueu. Since you've seen this, I have no choice but to kill you all.”
“Huuuum, pretending like you intended to spare us before?”
Normally Seonghyun used honorifics even to enemies, but since he knew them so well.
Since he knew what evil deeds they committed, Seonghyun was speaking informally.
And genuinely, Seonghyun spoke as if they were unpleasant.
“I know well about that pill too.”
“Keuheuheuheu, then you must know well what state I am in right now.”
Haldrin speaking while feeling omnipotence from the increased power, not caring about Seonghyun's words.
However, Seonghyun shook his head as if it became boring and looked at them.
Was the reason he took that pill at first because he was wary of potential enhancement?
It wasn't.
“The reason I took it even though I knew was because it becomes too boring if you become like that.”
“Hmph, you are steeped in arrogance.”
“A pill where demonic energy permeates the blood vessels and temporarily makes you a demon, right?”
“......Even if you know that, it's useless.......”
“And what do I handle right now?”
“......Uh?”
Haldrin making a stupid sound at Seonghyun's question.
And Seonghyun reached out his hand towards such Haldrin and the Intelligence Knights.
As the battle continued, small wounds appeared on them, and Seonghyun had already mixed his own blood into the blood inside their bodies.
And the result.
After absorbing all the demonic energy in the blood with his own blood and extracting it from their bodies.
As blood heavily condensed with demonic energy drained from their bodies, the awakening effect disappeared, leaving only their drained appearances.
Watching that, Seonghyun sighed lightly and said.
“I told you it becomes boring.”
“Keu, keuheok. Th, this can't be.......”
Looking at the guy speaking like that, Seonghyun shook his head and spoke looking at Helena.
“I need to talk to these guys later. I'll leave it to you.”
“Anytime.”
Helena smiled freshly saying that, then summoned the abyss beneath them without lifting a finger.
And as the suddenly appearing grasp of the abyss dragged them into the other side of the abyss.
The reaction of the Intelligence Knights, who until just a moment ago showed only appearances lacking vitality due to castrated emotions, became strange.
“Euaaaak!!!”
“S, save me!!!”
“W, where are you taking me!!!”
“Keuaaaak!!!”
The abyss drew out all human fears, and emotions deeply embedded in the heart, thought to be castrated, slowly rose to the surface.
But they were already dragged into the abyss, and Seonghyun muttered saying it was a pity.
“Huuuum, I haven't fully tested the Blood Lord yet.......”
As Seonghyun was disappointed like that, Varen and the viewers were looking at Seonghyun as if dumbfounded.
To be disappointed like that even after winning so overwhelmingly.
Are those who rise to the top really different?
Varen thought so and looked at Seonghyun with longing eyes, and viewers also had no choice but to show admiration looking at Seonghyun.
-He won without even trying seriously.
-Exactly;;;;;
-Anyway Demon King is amazing.
-So far he won everything with just a finger snap.
-Heo-uh.......
Just when everyone was admiring.
Seonghyun looked at Varen and others, smiled freshly, and spoke.
“Well thanks to this I got three more masks here, and two more on the way, so it fits perfectly.”
The five missing masks were all completed.
So.
“Shall we go down now?”
At Seonghyun's words, the investigation team members and Seonghyun's vassals nodded their heads.
Finally, they were able to enter the deep part of the Masked Lord's tomb.
