The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant

Episode 7

Sssssssssssssss—!!!

▶ Soul Detection Lv2 is activated.

▶ Friendly spirits around you sympathize with you.

▶ Soul Eye Lv2 is activated.

Namgoong slowly opened his closed eyes.

Then, to his surprise, hundreds of powerful souls, blooming like fireworks, shimmered in front of him.

‘With this… I can do it.’

He would be grateful if at most a few dozen or even a few people would wake up to his words.

He clenched his fists without realizing it.

▶ Soul Ministry Lv2 is available.

▶ The number of souls available for ministry exceeds the capacity.

▶ Number of available spirits 0/3

In the context of controlling the dead, the Seven Serpents’ Revelator could be said to be similar to the Necromancer, one of the jobs that can be obtained when the second gate of hell is opened.

But while they control the corpse, the Seven Serpent Revealers control only the soul.

You may wonder what the difference is, but if you look at the Revelator’s skills, the difference is not only obvious, but enormous.

▶ The spirits around you want to be with you.

▶ You can absorb souls that have not been ministered to.

▶ Soul Absorption Lv2 is available.

▶ Friendly spirits will have a greater effect on you.

This was it.

Necromancers who control only corpses such as skeletons and zombies may be able to form legions using massive amounts of corpses, but they cannot strengthen their abilities.

But Namgung was different.

▶ The spirits of the National Cemetery permeate you.

Sssssssssssssss—!!!!

The souls, like waves surging from the grave, were absorbed into his body.

“Hoo-eup…”

Namgung barely suppressed the involuntary nausea he felt from the countless emotions flooding him.

Their souls were literally war itself.

Although he survived numerous battles for 25 years after the gates of hell opened, the memories in his soul hit his heart like waves.

“…let’s fight.”

He slowly raised his head.

Then, the blurry image of the soul in front of him slowly appeared dark and clear.

The military uniforms worn by the three souls were each different. Although they lived in different eras, they stood together at this moment as if time had been connected.

▶ Soul ministry has been completed. (3/3)

Sigh…!!

Black smoke enveloped the heroic spirits, and their different faces were covered with gray masks, and instead of their military uniforms, jet black armor appeared covering their entire bodies.

‘Does it look different?’

Namgung recalled a memory from his past life.

At that time, the souls he manipulated through necromancy were the same as when they were alive.

But now, wearing the same clothes and raising one arm across his chest to show respect, he reminded me of a knight following his lord.

Kwaaaaang—!!

At that moment, the three soul soldiers scattered in all directions at once. At the same time, he cut down the goblins that were running wild around him with the sword he was holding.

‘no. ‘It’s not just the appearance that’s different.’

With just one strike, Namgung instinctively felt that the power he was using now was incomparable to the necromancy he had learned from Choi Hwi-soo in his previous life.

It felt like every movement of the soul soldiers was connected to his will.

Kwakang–!

Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!–!!

As if the world had been divided, the time the soldiers saw was connected to him, and the soldiers moved naturally just by thinking, without any action.

It was a feeling of kinship that I had never felt in my previous life.

But

it was not the time to leisurely admire the soul soldiers. Namgung pulled out a beheading sword from his belt on his waist and cut open the goblin that was running towards him.

▶ We hunted goblins.

▶ You are qualified.

▶ Survive until midnight.

▶ At midnight, a designated representative clan will come to you.

At that moment, a notification appeared in front of Namgung.

Although spirit soldiers had already hunted goblins, receiving their help did not seem to apply.

‘It’s midnight…’

I looked at my watch.

The remaining time is approximately 9 hours.

“We should hurry.”

He thought it was time to put his final plan into action when he came to Daejeon.

“Take this.”

Namgung threw the sword he was holding at Myeonghun.

“…!!!!”

Myung-Hoon took the long sword and looked at him with a surprised expression.

“Brother tongue! What if you bring something like this?!”

“That doesn’t fit the current situation, does it? First of all, it’s important to protect your body. “Never let go of your sword.”

Kwahiah … !!

“Aaaah!!”

“help me…!!”

Myeong-Hoon nodded, grabbing his beheading sword as he heard loud noises and people’s screams coming from everywhere.

This is because getting out of here was more important than explaining.

“Keep in mind. If your mind is distracted, you will be eaten by the sword. “It’s a tough weapon for you at this time.”

As if to prove Namgung’s words, a red energy began to slowly surround Myung-hoon’s arm from the handle of the beheading sword he was holding.

“…Huh?”

Myung-Hoon frowned slightly as he felt a tingling sensation that felt like being pricked by a needle.

[Keeeeek!!]

“…!!!”

However, even for a moment, Myung-Hoon instinctively drew his sword towards the goblin running towards him.

Skang…!!

The vertical sword cut the goblin in half cleanly.

Cheolpudeok-!!!

As the goblin’s flesh fell to the floor, Myung-Hoon looked at his hand as if amazed at what he had accomplished.

“It’s still the same. If I stop, I won’t become a berserker. “I might have liked it if the teacher was there.”

“…That’s enough. It’s been a long time since I put up my sword. “Still, he is someone who served in the military.”

Myeong-Hoon, who was once a promising kendo player, smiled bitterly at Namgung’s joke.

“But brother. Something just pops up in front of me….”

“This is probably my first hunting achievement. You too have now stepped into hell. “Now is the real beginning.”

Although Namgung couldn’t see it, he was able to roughly predict it just by looking at the shape of Myunghun’s finger.

“…the beginning? “You sound terrible.”

“okay. “I told you that too.”

“yes?”

“never mind. I’ll explain later, so let’s clear this up for now. “There are still a lot of goblins.”

“great. “You mean to save people?”

Myung-Hoon asked Namgung with his eyes sparkling even in this crisis.

“okay.”

And Namgung answered his question without any hesitation.

However, as Myung-Hoon thought, trying to eliminate monsters was not just out of simple altruism.

Because what Namgung was aiming for was the benefit that came from it.

‘…The gates of hell open and the first hunt is important.’

Because it was a kind of gateway.

You might think they are just goblins, but in fact, they were the monsters that committed the most killings after the gates of hell were opened.

The sudden appearance of the goblin attack mercilessly ravaged the unprepared, bare-handed people.

Realistically, there weren’t many people who could kill monsters, no matter how small, without a hitch.

Therefore, only those who survived the first goblin wave could receive the Aspect’s attention.

But just surviving didn’t mean you could get attention.

It had to be interesting.

Any method didn’t matter.

Because they valued stimulating their curiosity more than distinguishing between good and evil.

In addition to the already selected Revelators, the Aspect occasionally lent some of its power to those who stood out after the Hell Gate was opened.

‘With the gates of hell just opened, the surest way to get the attention of the status is to catch more monsters than anyone else.’

It’s a simple but reliable method.

‘But even if you do that, only one of the eight Aspects, the Observer of the Sun and Moon, will be interested.’

Among the Aspects, the Observant of the Sun and Moon, the only Aspect with a generous disposition toward humans, was also the Aspect that bestowed its blessings on the most humans.

‘It is highly likely that the blessings you will receive now will be enhanced physical abilities. It’s not bad considering it’s an early choice, but…’

Unless you are a Revelator, the power of the protection provided by the Observer of the Sun and Moon actually became more ambiguous towards the end.

One year after the first gates of hell opened.

This was because once you endured that time, you could obtain Noble Phantasms and ingredients that could increase your physical abilities.

From then on, the observer’s protection loses its power.

‘Of course, the question is whether you can survive until then.’

One year later, only one-third of the survivors remain, as the first gate of hell has opened.

Being weak is better than dying.

Because it was such a self-evident fact.

‘In that sense, the Observer’s Protection was quite meritorious, but in order to reach a higher realm, you have to go on an adventure.’

Because there are definitely things that cannot be achieved if you do not take risks.

It was definitely a dangerous thing for Namgung as well.

But at least his experience wasn’t shallow enough to lose to goblins and the like.

‘Depending on how you sew the first button, your future direction will be completely different. In order to get the rest of the Aspects other than the spectators to pay attention…’

You had to obtain achievements beyond simply hunting goblins.

“let’s go.”

Myung-Hoon nodded at Namgung’s words.

“Everyone evacuate!!”

Myung-Hoon shouted excitedly while holding his sword and began to help people against the goblins.

‘Even without me, you will become the leader of the clan that led many people.’

Quagga River…!

Quagga River…!

‘My power can never become light.’

As if reading his thoughts, the spirit soldiers began slaughtering the goblins.

‘So don’t leave the position of leading people to you.’

Namgung grabbed the sword that fell from the goblin and struck it with all his might.

‘Instead, I will reign in the darkness.’

puck…!!!

Is it because it absorbed the soul?

Even though the blade was blunt, the goblin’s head was shattered into pieces.

‘It’s about time they showed up…’

Namgung looked around, seeing the number of goblins slowly decreasing.

The reason he came down to Daejeon amidst the chaos of the gates of hell opening was to have Myung-Hoon as a colleague and to obtain his soul. There was another reason.

“Hwaaaap!!!”

Myung-Hoon seemed to have gotten used to it and began to hunt the goblins quite flexibly, avoiding their attacks.

Kwasik-!!!

Letting out an exhausted breath, he cut off the head of the last goblin in sight.

“…uh?”

His expression became slightly surprised.

‘It’s gone.’

At that moment, Namgoong knew that this was the moment he had been waiting for.

“Brother, what is this? Can you see me too?”

“What?”

“Capture the Goblin Lord? Does it appear?”

“…World Boss.”

Something that exists every time the gates of hell open.

This was the last reason I came to Daejeon.

‘The Goblin Lord was the boss of the first Hell Gate, but it took many years before he was hunted.’

The reason was that the second gate of hell opened before the Lord was hunted.

Afterwards, the number of monsters increased rapidly, and even those who stood out, including Palmuseong, could no longer easily kill the Lord.

One year like that.

While the Lord existed, the number of goblins gradually increased, and eventually they became the monster that killed the most people.

Choi Hwi-soo, one of the Eight Museong Revelators, existed in Korea, but he failed to hunt down the Goblin Lord.

Unfortunately, the place he was in was Seoul, and by the time he barely arrived in Daejeon after the Goblin Wave, the Lord had already built his fortress.

‘If you fight against a fortress, you are at an absolute disadvantage. Strike from here first before he raises the walls.’

It is unknown why the World Boss first appeared in Korea.

In the first place, it was difficult to find a special reason for the location of the world boss that was created when the gates of hell were opened, as if it were random.

‘But if it’s the same as my previous life, I will be able to know their respawn area in advance.’

Preemption of the world boss.

Now was the moment to take the first step towards that.

“let’s go.”
