Seoul Station’s Necromancer Chapter 79:
Chapter 79 - Rashmode
His rage was expressed as a catastrophe . He swept across the area .
Too too too too!
The propeller spinning on Dolsae's left arm cut a wolf-like monster in half . The propeller was strengthened with magic, so it was akin to spinning blades .
When the blood of the wolf flew everywhere, it signalled the beginning of the battle .
“Koo-ohhhh!”
Dolsae let out a roar, then he headed towards the monsters .
Kwahng, kwahng!
Every time the steel giant took a step a large crater was formed on the ground . The vibration caused the bolts on his body to fall off in droves .
“Kwahhhhk!”
Dolsae was unreserved even as several hundred monsters all ran at him .
Kwahng! Kwah-jeek!
Every time Dolsae swung his fist a monster's head exploded . Moreover, the rotating blades broke the formation of the monsters as it cut apart their bodies .
Pshooooong!
The Missile attached to his back shot high into the sky . It fell and exploded near the rear of the group where the monsters were the most dense . The members of the Rivers organization, who hadn't had the time to run away, was swept up in the explosion, but Dolsae couldn't stop his destructive instinct .
The Holy Knights looked on dumbly at the sight . Dolsae was going nuts in the midst of the monsters like a crazy bull .
“Wow . Is he a transformer?”
“What a cool ability?”
Jimmy would throw away his Flight and Quick sword abilities if he could have such an ability .
They said he was a Steel Golem… .
Isn't he just a robot?
“Look at his cannons . ”
The cannons mounted on Dolsae's shoulders fired as it shot down a flying monster that was far distance away . Some Holy Knights even started to clap as Dolsae sniped his enemies .
However, not all of the Holy Knights were robot enthusiast .
“Why are you standing here like idiots? Go hunt the monsters!”
James, the leader of the Holy Knight, angrily scolded his men . The Holy Knights quickly readied themselves for battle . When two monsters headed towards them, all the Holy Knights unsheathed their weapons .
“May the goddess' blessing be with you . ”
Pah-pah-paht .
When the goddess Aria's blessing was cast, the Holy Knights' fighting power was increased significantly . If one was a B Rank Roused, Melody's buff will elevate one to Rank A . Moreover, there were those who could exhibited even more power than that .
“It's been awhile . Should we go hunt?”
The Holy Knights were about to step forward when the two monsters casted their shadows over them . Then . . . .
Kooh-oong!
Both feet of Dolsae fell from the sky, and his feet drove the two monsters deep into the ground . The monsters were probably crushed to death .
Hoooooohng .
The shock wave caused dirt to fly everywhere . Naturally coarse words poured out of their words .
“Shit . ”
“What the **** is this?”
After falling from the sky, Dolsae extended his hand towards the Holy Knights .
“What the hell? He doesn't want us to **** in?”
Ggi-gee-gee-geek .
The sound of metals grating against each other was heard every time Dolsae moved . He turned back to looked at the monsters . The Holy Knights shook their head as they looked at Dolsae's large back then they looked at the Holy Maiden .
“Aren't we allies?”
“…… . ”
“What should we do?”
“Please just wait . ”
It was what the Titan of Destruction wanted . He wanted to face the monsters by himself . She didn't know his reason, but she decided it would be best to let Dolsae do what he wanted .
If they unnecessarily butted in, then they might have to face the Titan of Destruction instead of the monsters .
Kwah-kwah-kwahng!
The Titan of Destruction charged towards the monster, while letting out a heavy sound at every step he took . Instead of being worried about the Dolsae, she was worried about Woojin, who had headed towards an unfavorable battlefield .
‘I'm worrying about the Immortal . ’
The Holy Maiden shook her head at her own absurd thoughts .
He can take care of himself .
He went by himself since he was confident in himself .
“Everyone please get ready . ”
The Holy Knights were confused by the Holy Maiden's words .
“Mmm . Isn't our steel friend going to block our way?”
“He won't be able to regenerate after he uses up all of his magic . ”
Magic was consumed when the body was first formed . Moreover, magic was consumed when Dolsae had to regenerate the broken pieces of his body . Woojin had transferred all of his magic to Dolsae, but it will eventually run out .
Even now he was regenerating his armor that had been torn away by a monster . He pulled the roof of a new vehicle to him to repair himself . His magic was being consumed incrementally, but there were still couple hundred monsters left .
“If the Titan of Destruction falls, then I have no idea where the monsters will head towards . ”
Currently, the monsters were acting like trained pack of hunting dogs . The monsters converged and attacked a single target . This was possible since these monsters had yielded to the authority of commander Rashmode .
After the monsters took down their target, they'll be released from Rashmode's control . They'll return to being wild and violent monsters .
This situation would basically turn into something akin to a normal Dungeon Break .
Even if one one monster escaped, it would be disastrous .
“That Steel Golem has to last as long as he can . ”
Guild master Deacon let out a moan .
His support team should be on their way here now . He had been worried he would have to buy time with only the Holy Knights by his side . So, her words were a welcome sound .
He wished for the Steel Golem to last until his support team arrived .
“So who was the person Mr . Kahng-woojin followed after?”
“Person?”
The Holy Maiden furrowed her brows . She could see how Rashmode could be seen as a person through human eyes . However, he was a terrible demon .
“He is one of Trahnet's 72 commanders . . . . ”
That was his real identity .
“Black Magician Rahsmode . ”
Melody's worried eyes moved towards the entrance of the underground Dungeon .
*
Woojin slowly descended the Dungeon's underground stairway .
There weren't that many stairs, and at the end of the tight space, a red portal was in existence .
It was structured the same as a high rank Dungeon .
Woojin didn't hesitate . He passed through the portal .
Pah-paht .
When the light disappeared, a large underground cavern was revealed . It was like a Dragon's lair . It was twice as large as a soccer stadium .
<You've entered Rahsmode's Research Lab . >
<You are attempting ‘Assault’ mode . >
“What the **** is this?”
The sound of the Dungeon Entrance Announcement was a bit different . He guessed it meant he had entered a Dimensional Domain possessed by someone else .
“Kooh-hahah . You dumb **** . You really followed in after me . ”
Rashmode let out a cheerful laugh .
He knew the impatient Necromancer was very spontaneous and random in his actions . However, he never expected the Necromancer to fall so easily to his vulgar provocation .
He had sent sent out all of his underlings filling up the Dungeon . Even if he tried to hold a numerical advantage, the Necromancer would use them as mediums to make his Skeleton Soldiers .
“You are only a Necromancer . What can you do without corpses?”
“At the very list, I'll be able to kill a **** like you . ”
“Koo-haha . Your bravado is still the same even though you've gone through Initialization . ”
“Aren't you also too confident even though you don't have your Chimeras?”
Rashmode used to be a very famous Black Magician on Alphen .
He received immortality after he submitted to Trahnet . After numerous experimentation, he was able to make his body a Chimera . He no longer had a weak body of a magician .
If both their summons were taken out of the picture, Rashmode held a large advantage over the Immmortal .
“Hoo hoo hoo . I'll finally be able to see you die . ”
“I guess you are quite confident . Why don't we fight after you return Bibi?”
“Huh? Koo-hahaha . ”
Rashmode's face lit up . It felt as if he had seen a new and different side to the Immortal .
If one found out one's arrogant idol was a simpleton, would one feel what he was feeling right now?
“You are friends with your familiars? Koo-hahaha . ”
After laughing for a long while, Rashmode suddenly ended his laughter . He raised the cat in his grasp forward .
“She is only a disposable item . Who cares what happens to her? She exists only to be dominated . ”
Rashmode tightened his grip, and he tore apart the cat Bibi .
Puh-uhk!
Woojin's eyebrows twitched when he saw Rashmode pluck the cat's head off her body .
<Succubus Bibi was killed . The Succubus' level will decrease by 1 . >
<Re-summon is impossible for 32 days . >
Familiars can experience death, but they won't disappear . The familiar stayed dead for a time corresponding with the familiar's level . Afterwards, the familiar once again appeared in the Summoning room .
“Koo-haha . What? Are you perhaps going to get angry at me?”
“No way . ”
Woojin headed towards Rashmode with heavy eyes .
“Do you think me getting angry could properly express my rage?”
“Kooh-haha . Impudent **** . ”
He didn't like this **** .
When will he be able to change his confidence and arrogance into abject cowardice? Rashmode wanted to see it happen today .
Rashmoded dashed towards Woojin .
There wasn't a single body part on his body he hadn't Chimerified . His two legs kicking off the ground was as strong and fast as a Centaur's kick . His two arms exceeded the gripping power an ogre .
Hwa-roo-rook .
A glowing black sword appeared in Rashmode's hand . On top of his strengthened body, he still had his speciality black magic he could use without any limitation .
After being Initialized, he wasn't an opponent a Necromancer barely over level 70 could handle .
“Crawl underneath my feet!”
Beg for your life . Struggle beneath me .
Crawl on the ground in obsequiousness .
Well, he wouldn't mind if the Necromancer died immediately .
Hwa-roo-rook!
Rahsmode swung his black sword with the intent of splitting him into two pieces .
Ggahng!
Woojin had taken out his Steel Staff, and he had blocked Rashmode's black sword . Rashmode's eyebrows lifted .
“Ho-oh! Is it Necromancy?”
The Immortal used this technique occasionally .
In the past, he had showed battle capability that was almost inconceivable for a magician .
Woojin let out a cold laugh .
“Not at all . ”
The Steel Staff changed into a Great Sword, and Woojin attacked Rashmode .
Hooohng .
Rashmode had stepped out of the way to avoid the blow, but the weapon had already changed into a spear as it was thrust towards him .
‘What a troublesome weapon . ’
Was it an Epic Item? The freely changing form of the item was quite similar to a Warrior's Weapon .
“N . . . no way!”
Rashmode was surprised at what he had considered to be a ridiculous notion .
Come to think of it, the Immortal was keeping up with his fortified body . Moreover, the Immortal had strength that matched his speed and reaction .
“You bastard! You became a Warrior?”
Woojin laughed instead of answering him .
<The time remaining on Warrior's Wrath 77, 76, 75… . >
His extreme anger could be maintained much longer as his level increased . However, he was running out of time . Woojin swung his his weapon, which had turned into an axe . Then he quickly changed it back in to a great sword to execute a stab .
At his unconventional attack and strength, Rashmode was being pushed back more and more . He couldn't help, but be taken aback .
‘He threw away the Undead Army to become a common Warrior . ’
He was having a hard time believing it, but the evidence was right in front of his eyes . They exchanged a flurry of blows, and Rashmode was gradually being undone . It was a fight between a Warrior, and a magician with fortified strength and quickness .
In a hand-to-hand fight like this, the Warrior would inevitably hold the advantage .
Poo-oohk!
When he saw the blade of the spear embed itself deep into his abdomen, Rashmode's pale expression hardened . He immediately leaped backwards as he widened the distance between his enemy .
Poo-hwahk!
When the blade of the spear was extracted, a fountain of blood flew out of the hole in his abdomen, but the blood flow stopped after couple seconds . Then the wound started to heal . He hadn't used healing magic . It was an effect of his Chimera body . He had a much better version of a Troll's regeneration ability .
“Stupid **** . You ran away to earth, then you threw away your Necromancy to train in Warrior techniques?”
“This is fun in its own way . ”
“Stupid **** . ”
He acknowledged it . The potential of Woojin's combat ability was incredible . If he reached Max Level as a Warrior class, he would most definitely be stronger than any of the heroes in the alliance .
However, that was the it .
Rashmode consumed the Dungeon Energy to quickly regenerate the monsters .
“Koo-roo-roo-roo . ”
Rashmode relaxed a little bit as he saw the monsters appearing one or two at a time in the air .
The Immortal had been problematic, because of the Undead Army he controlled . The Undead Army had been able to contend with Trahnet's army .
However, he had given up that army, so Rashmode didn't have to be afraid of it any more .
When Rashmode surrendered to Trahnet, he was given power .
His summoned monsters ran towards Woojin .
“Koo-koo . Let's see how long you can last . . ”
The **** will eventually tire out, and he will take credit for the victory . As befitting his position as commander, he'll just watch the bastard's tenacious resistance at his leisure . Then he'll enjoy his moment of victory .
Woojin used his various skills to fight the monsters . After the kill count exceeded 100, one could notice he was tiring . There were wounds all over his body, and he looked like a **** mess .
“Koo-hahaha . Naive **** . This is the price of throwing away your power of control for a **** sword . How does it feel?”
“…who . ”
Woojin laughed as he was drenched in blood .
“Who said I threw it away?”
“What?”
He had been using only his Energy to attack . His Mana had been slowly replenishing, and it was almost 90% full . Woojin stretched out both his arms .
Puh-puh-puh-puhk!
The corpses littered all around his surrounding exploded . Then the Skeleton Soldiers and Magicians started to rise .
“Kee-kee-kee-keek . ”
The underground cavern was filled with Skeletons and their voices were terrifying .
When a friendly force was killed, it didn't end at -1 . The dead ally was turned into an enemy, so the score would become a -2 . This was why the Immortal had been troublesome to deal with .
When several hundred skeletons looked back at him, Rashmode's face turned white .
