Chapter 732: The Ark (2)

Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaang!

Boooom!

Baaaaaaaaaaaam!!

-Move! Move!!

-Put the shield down first. Start with the shield first!

-Win!

-Move! Move forward! Onwards, everyone!

-To victory!

-Ready the defense magic!

In an instant, the humans poured out of the ark that crashed into the temple.

Park Deokgu was ridiculously leading muscular pigs with a larger shield in his hand than the one he usually carried. Watching the troops pave the way forward by preventing external attacks, I felt that their training itself was well done, but what was the use of all that?

‘No, shit. That is kinda cool, though.’

The shields completely blocked everything, even their heads, which prevented incoming offensives from penetrating through their ranks. It was like watching a wall steadily moving forward.

The wizards’ protection magic wasn’t enough to cover the troops once, and they even smashed the sacred force.

The dense tankers seemed to have been given all the agility buffs to assist their movement, and their speed was indeed quite fast, which was embarrassing to me. Of course, I doubted they received a buff from some ordinary priest.

‘Are you in the wall?’

I instinctively felt the need to check who was inside the shield wall.

‘Elena.’

Looking inside through the telescope, I could see an elf with emerald hair.

Her lips were trembling, but she continued to exert divine power, and she continued to step forward along with the forearm of an auxiliary tanker.

Looking at her face, I knew she was scared. Of course she was. In the first place, she was overwhelmingly inexperienced when it came to combat against such difficulties.

Although a priest was usually responsible for the rear, she had to stand at the front. Her physical ability was too poor to be used as a combat priest.

Wouldn’t it be the first time for her to join the frontlines?

It was a wall of shields that felt impenetrable, but I could see cracks opening due to the continuous bombing.

Bang!

As soon as the sound was heard, one side of the small wall began to burst. With a splash, I saw blood splashing into Elena’s face.

The broken part of it was quickly filled with auxiliary tankers, but the elven princess was shaken.

-Damn it! Damn it!

-Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

-Fill the gap now! Next!

-Those who are injured, move back! Quickly now!

Fortunately, Cho Hyejin was near her.

-Elena, are you okay?

-Yes… Yes, I’m fine, D-Deputy Guild master. I’m just…

-I’ll stay with you until we arrive.

-No, you don’t have to… You don’t have to.

-It’s okay. I understand it’s a tough situation.

-…

-…

-Thank you.

Elena’s appearance as she walked away while holding onto Cho Hyejin looked more comfortable, but that didn’t dispel her fears.

No, wouldn’t it be more appropriate to say that she couldn’t come to her senses before being afraid?

Screams and noises were coming from all over her vicinity. The air was filled with sweat and blood, while the ground was covered with the injured and dying colleagues who they had to leave behind for their goal. It was the first time I saw her looking so shocked at the battlefield.

The priest, who should be located at the rear, was looking at the surroundings of the vanguard while biting her lips.

It would be too grand to say that she realized something, but at least she was no longer making the same face as before.

To those who were looking externally, wouldn’t it look like light was leaking from inside the shield wall?

Elena’s whole body was shining brightly due to the emission of godlike sacred power.

Cho Hyejin, with a determined look at her face, moved forward immediately after nodding slightly, waiting for the shield gates to open.

-It’s okay now.

-Follow me, Elena.

-Hang in there! Hang in there! We’re almost there. Hang in there!

-Elena! Please follow me.

The Blue Guild assistant tanker Yoo Ah-young reached out to Elena, who had been busy breathing hard.

Inside the wall, she saw troops reorganizing their ranks. Once again, the priests and wizards who led the shield wall were sent to the rear. Once the shields gave way, the warriors who would jump out would unsheathe their weapons.

Muscular pigs, who needed to buy time to reorganize their ranks, were holding out as much as possible against the pouring attacks, filling the temple with screams and shouts.

-Hang in there! Hang in there! A little more! A little more!

-Open it! Open it! Now! Open it now!

-Open it!

-Don’t die, Hyejin Noona! Don’t get hurt!

-Open!

The shield wall, which seemed to have been locked tightly, opened, and troops who had held their breath were seen bursting out from within.

The first thing that came out of the gate was Cho Hyejin, who had her long hair tied. She penetrated the neck of a pigeon, greeting it with a spear.

‘Why so fast, Hyejin? Shit. You kill every time you launch an attack.’

It was like watching Kim Hyunsung. She also seemed a little sharper, standing way ahead of the troops.

I thought about what I would do if I got hurt, but I guessed my concern was just a falsehood. It was doubtful whether she was really holding a spear.

She used the spear as leverage to move her body and didn’t take it out once it had stabbed someone. Unlike the traditional way of keeping a certain distance, she was completely surrounded by pigeons.

On a battlefield where there was no room to swing long weapons, she chose to use her body. I could see her punching instead of using the spear as of that moment.

‘Shit, that’s cool.’

It wasn’t just a normal punch.

‘What? Where did you learn that?’

I had seen it once before. Xiaolin, who had bumped into Cha Hee-ra, once showed something similar.

It seemed a little different, but it was amazing that there seemed to be some similarities as well.

‘Do all the long-weapon users know how to punch?’

Perhaps it was a preparation for situations where weapons couldn’t be used freely.

It wasn’t as fancy as Xiaolin’s, but it was as modest and elegant. She had no wasteful movements either.

She was only moving as much as necessary. It was like swinging a spear. She broke the opponent’s shin with the soles of her feet and pushed with her shoulders to make room.

After clenching her fist, she threw it to another target’s stomach, causing the pigeon to be launched away.

She didn’t panic when she saw a pigeon thrusting its spear. After stretching out her long legs and wrapping them around the weapon, she turned around, causing the spear to pierce through the angel’s body.

She kicked its chin up with her foot and stabbed at its side. I was so distracted that I couldn’t even understand what I was looking at.

She kicked better than I thought, making me speak unknowingly.

“What’s this? Why are you so cool?”

Nobody could do that in a normal fight.

I was overwhelmed by that ridiculous sight. I thought the scenes in the action movies would be less wonderful than what I was seeing.

‘Take me, Noona. Shit.’

If it weren’t for the current situation, I wouldn’t have wanted her to take me.

‘So, shit, what are you going to do now?’

The impressive images they showed were clearly stuck in my mind.

‘Yeah, you guys are cool and all. Really. But what are you going to do from now on?’

They’ve succeeded in the landing, and for that, I thought Deokgu had done amazing. How did he succeed in that? I didn’t know how hard he trained, but he wasn’t superfluous. Still, what were they going to do now? How were they going to get out of here?

I bit down on my lower lip.

If it were a one-off surprise, I would nod. It was an act that was out of my control, but it wasn’t bad.

The problem was that they were going all-in. They put everything mankind had on the line and struck at the heart of the enemy.

All the guild members of the most prestigious guild in the world had gathered in one place. It was no exaggeration to say that that was the best of human power.

It would be a relief if there were even a few more ‘bullet racks’, but the troops were small in numbers.

They succeeded in the landing operation because of their skills, but the troops were now isolated.

No support could be expected, and no assistance could be provided.

‘Hyejin, shit. Can you think of something?’

If Kim Hyunsung had been there, it would’ve been a relief.

‘No, but I don’t think I’d be relieved. Hyejin, you thought about that, right? What’s your next move? Is there even one?’

I didn’t know whose idea it was, but I wanted to ask what would happen next.

‘I’m sure you guys didn’t come here just here to get yourselves killed. Shit.’

There had to be some plausible plan. No, I thought they had to make one even if they didn’t already have one.

‘Confusion.’

Seraphim, Cherubim, and Thronus had yet to arrive at the site of the battle.

That balance was currently being maintained because the main enemies hadn’t appeared yet.

‘Damn it. Shit. Shit.’

There was no reason for those bastards to stay still after so much death had been caused. I didn’t know what they were doing or where they were, but they were most likely already moving. I had to move, too.

‘Where?’

Jihye would move separately, right? She wasn’t going to act like how Dominions stole Lee Jihye’s soul in front of Cho Hyejin, would she? No, I thought she’d do more than that. It was when I tried to move with my eyes fixed on the battle that was taking place.

“Hey, here you are.”

“Thronus.”

“I’m… I’m glad you didn’t get hurt. No, we don’t have time for this. Right now, humans are…”

“…”

“Humans attacked the temple. I think we’d better get somewhere safe right now.”

‘Where’s the safe place?’

“I know it’s urgent, but I have to go right now, too. The humans are remarkable. Maybe they’re here to get you back. I’m sure of it.”

‘Why are you suddenly acting like you’re close to me, you incompetent bastard? Shit.’

“Come on, hurry! We don’t have time for this.”

His expression did seem tense. I was sure it was an emergency.

“Thronus?”

In fact, there couldn’t have been time for that. From their point of view, humans invaded their sanctuary.

As there was still an urgent battle on one side, it was right to support immediately.

I felt welcome, especially in situations like this where he came to me first.

‘So Thronus won’t join immediately.’

If he joined, the fragile balance would surely collapse. It was undeniable that the piece of shit before me had the power to overwhelm Kim Hyunsung, even though he was incompetent.

‘Who’s going to be able to take on this bastard?’

I couldn’t think of anyone right at that moment.

In other words, it would be Raphael, but the holy warrior couldn’t handle the pigeon who put Kim Hyunsung in a corner yet.

Cha Hee-ra must’ve wanted to fight Cherubim, and Jung Hayan was likely to have been given a special role.

And that pig was supposed to get hit, anyway.

“Faster, faster. Move faster.”

‘Safe place. Is this a safe place?’

Looking at the place where I rushed in, I should definitely feel safe.

The problem was…

“I won’t be long. I’ll be right back after I get things sorted out.”

‘What, shit, you’re leaving me here?’

He was trying to leave me behind and join the battlefield.

“Hang in there.”

‘What is this shit? You really want to leave me behind?’

“…”

“Then…”

“…”

“…”

“Don’t go.”

For the time being, I had no choice but to grab him by the sleeve.

It was lawless outside, after all.

‘You’re going to protect me, aren’t you? You know, what if Cherubim comes and harms me? Who else can I trust in such a chaotic situation? I’m telling you, he might really come to kill me.’
