Chapter 206

Screech- Screech-

With a sound of metal being scratched, the spiders spewed out their threads .

Zzzeeeeek!

Everything touched by the threads was melted, and from the mouth of the spiders, a powerful ray of fire that destroyed everything shot out .

“Where did such monsters pop up from?”

“Where are the garrisons? Where did they go?!”

The people couldn’t help but be confused . Before the invaders arrived at the Great City, the garrisonsshould have stopped them, or notified them of invaders, but there were no signs of either .

The spider monsters that suddenly appeared destroyed the walls and climbed up them to attack the people .

Their numbers were in the hundreds . There seemed to be about 500 of them .

“Shit!”

“Run away!”

There were more than 100,000 people living in the Great City . Among them, more than half were able to fight when they were needed .

But, their attacks didn’t work against the spider monsters .

They were helpless .

But, within the Great City, there were many guilds .

In the past, the Great City had quickly recovered and strengthened their defense after suffering a lot of damage due to the appearance of the Sky Devil .

Soon, many people wearing the identical jackets appeared .

“Long-range attack team, forward!”

“Forward!”

The very first to act was the Luminescent Guild .

With their blue jackets bearing a symbol of light radiating, they appeared and started to deal with the chaos after quickly analyzing the situation .

The long-range attack team of 300 people stood in a horizontal line and prepared to attack .

“Bahamude! The Luminescent Guild has arrived!”

“Even the rising star, Kim Taehwan came!”

The people who weren’t able to run away cheered . The Luminescent Guild was one of the guilds who developed rapidly after they were faced with the Sky Devil’s Trial .

The guild master of the Luminescent Guild, Bahamude, shouted as he raised his greatsword from his shoulder .

“Destroy them all, Wolves of the Luminescent Guild!”

500 guild members who held short-ranged weapons quickly moved .

Their teamwork was also good . The melee warriors distracted the spider monsters, while long-ranged attacks bombarded them .

It went smoothly, as if they were one body .

It looked as natural as breathing .

You could tell how hard they had trained from how this scene played out .

The last two years . After the Sky Devil’s Trial occurred, the Great City was clearly divided between those who progressed, and those who were unable to cope with thechanges .

And the results of this progress showed .

“Pl, please save me…!”

A woman fell on the ground and screamed out loud . The spider monsters didn’t distinguish between men or women . They killed humans as soon as they saw them .

A spider that saw the woman on the ground was approaching her .

The monster grew more terrifying as she saw it rip humans apart with its eight legs as if they were toys .

As the spider was about to tear the woman into pieces, a man appeared .

Thud!

The man crashed into the spider with a loud sound .

Due to his huge silver shield, the spider was repelled .

“Are you okay?”

“Th, thank you…”

“Please get away from this place . Have trust in us Wolves . Go!”

The woman forcefully held her sprained leg and stood up .

Then, the blue-coated Wolves surrounded her .

“Captain Taehwan . I think they are using the immune skill . ”

The man called Taehwan got up with his huge shield and looked at the spiders again .

Behind him, 100 members stood in rows .

‘Immune skill . ’

The man, Taehwan, observed the spider’s movements .

It seemed to absorb other people’s attacks and was recovering .

‘Why does only my strength work on them?’

Taehwan quickly thought about this .

The strength he could control .

Eradication .

It rejected illegitimate power .

Naturally, this power was extremely pure .

Taehwan looked at the battlefield .

It wasn’t that people’s strengths weren’t working on them at all .

Natural types of skills . Although it wasn’t much, they definitely hadan effect .

“Everyone, lose your magic weapons!”

“What do you mean?”

Get rid of their weapons?

The team couldn’t help but be confused .

The veins on Taehwan’s neck bulged .

“Impure powers don’t work against them!”

Taehwan quickly discovered the spiders’ weakness .

If one were to count those who worked the hardest over the last two years, Taehwan would definitely be on the list .

However, Taehwan was still unsatisfied .

This was because his goal was too great . There was no time to waste if he was to catch up with the man that was still firmly embedded in his mind .

The team replaced the weapons that had all sorts of magic .

And held just swords, shields, and spears made purely of metal .

Screeeeek-!

The spider that fell back quickly moved to attack Taehwan .

But, it couldn’t pierce him . Taehwan was a rising star who was known as the ‘Shield Guardian’ . He got the title because even if his opponent’s ability surpassed his, if he was holding his shield, nothing could pass through .

Thud!

In the blink of an eye, the spider was bounced back .

‘Who is it?’

Taehwan frowned .

Two people suddenly appeared and started throwing spiders around . They didn’t belong to his group of Wolves .

A woman, and a man with a large build, both wearing masks!

They looked like they were enemies of the monster spiders . Like an intense wind, they ripped spiders apart .

While doing so, the masked woman looked at Taehwan .

As their eyes met, the woman bowed her head down, then stomped on the ground and flew up into the air .

“Who is she?”

“A master with a mask?”

The team also didn’t seem to know .

There was no information about two masters wearing masks .

Taehwan thought about the woman’s eyes for a moment .

“Don’t doze off!”

Screech!

There were still a lot of spiders .

* * *

Suzy bit her lips .

‘Taehwan-oppa…’

It was a face she hasn’t seen in a while . It seemed like at least 5 or 6 years since they saw each other last .

But Taehwan was the same as she remembered . Besides having slightly more muscles and a hardened expression, it was still the same Taehwan in her memories .

He had settled down and was now leading 100 members .

And so, she wore a mask .

As she didn’t want to be a burden to him .

She even forced the Fighting King to wear one as well . The Fighting King had a lot of enemies in the Great City .

“Eight! Suzy, I think I’ll be winning this competition!”

The Fighting King chuckled as he tore the leg from a spider .

Suzy took out the bottle of liquor she hid . She smiled as she poured out the liquor from the ceramic bottle .

“Then, shall I start now?”

Spattt!

The air popped .

The air near Suzy quickly expanded . Then, as Suzy stomped her feet on the ground, the ground sank down .

Thump!

It was a skill that utilized the exquisite principle of the ten thousand weight hammer, Mangeunchu .

At that moment, Suzy disappeared .

She reappeared on top of a spider .

As she wielded the sword she suddenly took out, the spider’s body became like a beehive . And like a canvas, from the holes bloomed cherry blossoms .

The swordsmanship of the Heavenly Maid Clan!

As the Heavenly Maid’s swordsmanship utilized increased weight and pure energy, the spider monster couldn’t withstand her attack .

“Hmm, you mixed something weird in there . ”

The Fighting King clicked his tongue as he watched her .

She showed off her new Mystery Door technique as she mixed the principle of Mangeunchu with the movement . As the movement had a good balance of energy, even the Fighting King couldn’t keep up with the speed .

At least, in terms of speed, she was in the top 10 of humanity .

Suzy was like a fish in water .

She quickly caught up to the game that started at 8:0 .

“I shouldn’t be playing around any longer . ”

The Fighting King smiled .

He now understood how one great pupil was better than ten average pupils .

However, as a teacher, he couldn’t lose this game .

The Fighting King also gave his all .

While this was occurring, other guilds started to slowly appear after finishing their preparations .

It seemed like the spider monsters were slowly dying off .

Screeech!

Screeeek!

That is, until more spiders climbed up the walls .

“H, how many are there?”

“The wall is collapsing!”

“Ahhh…”

When they were almost done clearing 500 spiders, as if that was just the beginning, more spiders climbed up the walls .

No, they just destroyed the walls .

The people who saw the scene outside the walls couldn’t help but be astonished .

Giant spider monsters were endlessly heading towards them .

* * *

Muyoung admired the scene .

He couldn’t help but admire them .

By what he recalled from 2 years ago, he thought 500 spiders would be enough .

However, the resistance of the Great City was strong . They quickly learned how to deal with the situation and destroyed the spiders .

‘The Great City changed after facing the Sky Devil’s Trial . ’

This was truly the benefit of a Trial .

This was the hope humanity had .

Not being dormant . Just by this, they had gained much greater strength than they had two years ago .

They collaborated their strength and, unlike the past, they weren’t divided . They knew how to fight together against one common enemy .

However, trials needed to be done periodically . For their unity to not die out, they needed a continuous driving force .

‘Why couldn’t they do this in the past?’

The past, before Muyoung returned .

Humanity was weak . One would wonder how it was possible for them to be so weak .

It was because of the Forest of Death, as well as the Clans’ and Guilds’ self-centered interests .

However, everything had changed after the Sky Devil’s Trial . The original selfish bastards mostly died or were in critical condition .

Their vacancy was an opportunity for young, idealistic people .

They became hope for the weak .

This was why the present was different from the past .

‘Now it is possible… they can change . ’

Muyoung didn’t expect this .

He never expected them to change so much in two years .

Muyoung was slightly thrilled .

It had changed . It wasn’t just a possibility . It was a result .

‘I’ll become an enemy to all . ’

As he confirmed the result, Muyoung took the role of villain without hesitation .

At Muyoung’s gesture, additional Ellarsigo started to move .

Let’s fight . As fighting endlessly was the only way live!

“Someone is quickly approaching . ”

“We will get rid of him . ”

Then, the five nine-tailed foxes who were assisting Muyoung started to move .

Muyoung also noticed the presence of something approaching him .

At least in terms of quick movement technique, he was excellent . Someone was breaking past all the monsters and quickly heading towards where Muyoung was at .

Perhaps, they had realized someone was controlling the Ellarsigo .

The nine-tailed foxes swished their tails before vanishing .

Their method of shortening distances was Shukuchi .

Muyoung ignored them all .

Right now, he wanted to give the Great City his full attention .

There was a reason why he stopped so near to the Great City .

By using a bead one of the nine-tailed foxes had left behind, Muyoung could watch the situation in the Great City in real time .

‘The past has changed . We have changed . ’

Just like how Muyoung had moved on from his past .

Although they hadn’t experienced it yet, they would definitely become different people from the past .

Grrrr!

Then, two chunglangs bared their teeth .

It seemed like the nine-tailed foxes were unable to stop the person .

An unknown presence was felt from nearby .

As he turned his head, a woman wearing a mask slowly approached him .

“Kill . ”

Grrrrr!

As soon as Muyoung gave out the order, the two chunglangs immediately ran towards the woman .

The masked woman was already covered with wounds .

There was no way she’d be fine after going through all the monsters and the nine-tailed foxes .

However, the woman in the mask even passed through the attacks of the chunglangs .

“Amazing . ”

Muyoung made a small remark as he faced the woman who was approaching him .

The woman, holding a sword, leapt forward to pierce the sword toward Muyoung’s front .

However, the sword never reached Muyoung .

This was because, as soon as the woman saw Muyoung’s face, she suddenly stopped .

“Mi…ster… . ?”

Thud!

After saying this word, the woman fell on the ground . Blood gushed out from all the wounds on her body .

Kyaaack!!

An enraged chunglang then chomped down on her .

With its teeth pierced into her body, it wanted to eat her .

Seeing this, Muyoung raised one hand .
