Arena Chapter 152:
Chapter 152 – High Priest (Part 2)
Pang!
The black cloak reflects the magnum . 357 bullet .
This time I continued shooting while using Sylph’s extra rotating power .
Sylph’s power, until the bullet reached its target, was a powerful shooting skill that increased the rotation of the bullet until it hit the target .
Ta ta ta ta ta tang-!
A countless barrage of bullets ripped through the curtain and made the young dark magician look like a torn rag .
As his two hands fell away from the young man’s wrists, the ominous black blaze disappeared as well .
‘My thinking was correct!’
Yelling in delight I continued shooting at the young dark magician with my double guns .
I was thinking that if I just absolutely wreck his entire body that reviving it would be difficult .
Pu pu puk!
The young dark magician’s body because a ruthlessly small piece of meat, scattered all around .
Squirm, squirm .
The bits of flesh and pieces of bone that had fallen away began to gather again and restored .
I clenched my teeth and continued shooting with both guns .
Then,
“Kuu!”
“Kuaah!”
The zombie horde gathered from all around . Floundering and swimming they began to come at me .
Due to shooting the double guns, I had gotten rid of the whirlwind around my body . Because the whirlwind could have decreased the power of my bullets .
“Tsk!”
I clicked my tongue and with a Neilson H2 in each hand, I recklessly pulled athe triggers .
Ta ta ta ta ta tang! Ta ta ta tang! Ta ta tang!
The double guns fired off front back left and right in all directions .
I aimed behind my shoulder and fired, underneath my armpit and fired, both arms switched and fired, and fired again at the dark magician in front of me .
The young dark magician and zombie hordes’ blood and flesh spewed everywhere .
The huge amounts of bullets that were shot out were being replenished automatically due to the reload skill .
This shooting synthesis skill that was only an entry level 1 was very useful .
No matter how fast I fired, my accuracy was 100% within 10 meters .
On top of that, added to it the spirit summons, it created a new domain .
The shooting skill accuracy only worked on what I could see .
The skill normally wouldn’t help cover my back and both sides since they were outside my scope of view .
But by using Sylph I basically had 360 vision .
Sylph delivered a video image of my surroundings .
Because of that, no matter how I shot, behind my back or to my sides, it always hit .
I shot my magnum bullets like crazy aiming only at the zombie weakness, their heads .
One bullet, with the bullet revision skill and Sylph together, would pierce through four to five heads at a time .
While crazily slaughtering the zombie horde that was gathering around me, I continued keeping the dark magician in pieces .
The young dark magician too continued reviving . And no matter how many I killed the zombie horde keeps gathering .
Inside the drawn-out war, Cha Ji-hye threw herself into battle too .
Kwa jik!
Cha Ji-hye jumped down off number one and landed by stepping on a zombie head and bursting it .
And by using the zombies floating on the sea as a bridge, she stepped and swung both blades .
She stepped on their heads to burst them, and with both blades she adeptly slit throats, like the dance of a possessed martial artist, she fought splendidly .
But despite massacring like this, the zombie numbers were still uncountable .
‘At this rate, there will be no end . ’
I decided to use my next card .
“Divine Protection of Fire!”
I used all my might to burst into flame and sent it in all directions .
Hwa lu lu lu lu luk!
“Kuah!”
“Uh ahhh!”
“Kuahh!”
The flames burned the zombies into heaps of ashes .
But then an unexpected change occurred .
The young man, who had calmly been reviving himself, dove down into the ocean .
His head, arms and legs too, his trunk and all his bits, as if hiding, all sank into the ocean .
Is he afraid of fire?
‘I see . ’
Dark magic that disobeys the laws of nature, its rival was the power of nature, spirit summons .
The **** that was reviving like an invincible being, it seemed he didn’t have the confidence to revive if he was burned by Kasa’s flames .
‘In that care!’
I summoned Kasa .
“Kasa, synthesize!”
-Bark!
Kasa jumped into my embrace .
Hwa lu lu lu-!!
From my body flames spewed out .
With the Divine Protection of Fire as well, my power grew beyond three-fold .
I flung both hands with as much power as I could . From both directions, flames like waves came forth and burned through hundreds of zombies .
Kwa lu lu lu lung!
“Kuahh!”
“Uhaaah!”
‘Huhaah!”
The body parts on the zombies that weren’t submerged in water all burned .
“Miss Ji-hye, go up!”
“Got it . ”
With a whistle, Cha Ji-hye called number one and jumped atop and flew up into the sky .
I felt relieved and fully released Kasa’s power .
Hwa lu lu lu luk-!
I spread the waves of fire everywhere and ruthlessly burned the zombies .
But then, the zombies suddenly dove into the ocean .
A considerable number burned to ashes, but a considerable number also hid under the surface and escaped the flames .
When the flames passed, the zombies all together, popped out their heads .
‘That **** is controlling them . ’
How very annoying .
The young dark magician, that had hidden deep in the ocean, wasn’t thinking of coming out .
Then again, even if his body becomes pieces of meat, a monster that comes back to life probably won’t die from not breathing underwater anyway .
‘So you’re saying you want a long drawn out battle then?’
Not bad .
If all you can do while you’re underwater is just to control the zombies .
No matter how many zombies there are, it doesn’t scare me .
“Everyone, grab the zombies!”
After I gave the order to the rake eagles, I too shot out my flames and began to attack .
Sylph too shot out wind daggers and chopped down zombies .
The rake eagles, flying up and down, pulled off the zombie heads with their strong talons . Their steel rake like talons were more than enough to rip off rotten zombie flesh .
Cha Ji-hye too, like before, was stepping on the zombies while she used her double blades .
The zombies, according to the young dark magician’s orders, would dive underwater and then come back up repeatedly .
But as we massacred the zombies and their numbers shrank at a rapid pace .
How much time passed this way .
The zombie horde that had darkened the horizon became rotten corpses floating on the water .
There were no more zombies to be seen making strange noises or moving .
“Now, what’ll you do?!”
I shouted at the sea .
The **** hadn’t run away .
The guider skill was telling me he was still below .
Of course .
The young dark magician moved .
Chwaak!
The latest version of the young dark magician came up out of the water .
The rake eagles go out at him at all together, but their sharp talons were blocked by his curtain .
The young dark magician broke through the surface of the water and then looked down at me .
“You’re a tough **** . All those zombies that took years to collect, you’ve destroyed them all . ”
“If that took you years to achieve, what a pitiful waste of your life that was . ”
At my response, the young dark magician smiled .
“Don’t be disappointed . Did you think that was all?”
The young man took something out of his cloak .
It was a round marble shining with a white light .
“Do you know what this is?”
“……?”
I couldn’t hold back my curiosity .
‘What is that?’
That small marble took years to prepare?
And then .
‘Ah!’
A memory cross my mind in an instant .
‘Soul fragments clumped together and blown into a fake soul will assume the previous image of that person . ’
The reason those **** attacked the elves and tried to harm the Tree of Life!
“Is it a fake soul?”
“Oh, so you do know . You must have learned about it when you beat John Omento . That bastard’s disciples were a bit clumsy . ”
Does that mean he’s going to use that to resurrect someone?
Now?
While I was in doubt, the young dark magician spoke out .
“It looks small, but this is the result of one high priest, my, Allan’s years of work . ”
Now I know what his goal was .
As expected, he was one of the six high priests . His name was Allan .
“Although I must say it seems so wasteful to use this here when it should be added to the great work . But I guess I’ll have to use it . Examinee Kim Hyun-ho, you are too dangerous to be left alone . ”
At the same time that he finished talking, high priest Allan quickly recited a spell .
Paaaat!
A kind of black passage that looked like a black hole appeared in midair .
And through that passage, two bodies appear .
‘Huh?!’
I could not hide my shock .
These two corpses!
One body was an attractive young woman with softly brushed black hair . With a tall height and skin like white jade, she was a typical Asian . On her chest was a scar that looked like a stab wound .
And the other body, with long hair tied in the back and four piercings on each ear, a man with a delinquent expression .
How could I forget!
It was the body of the Heising that died at my hand!
“Surprised?”
Asked Allan .
As he says, I was extremely surprised .
Can an examinee’s body remain in Arena?
As far as I know, when an examinee dies that body ceases to exist . Kang Cheon-seong, Lee Hye-soo, Lee Jun-ho, there was nothing where their bodies had died . Even with the guider skill I couldn’t find a single body and I had thought they had disappeared .
But that wasn’t the case?
“Don’t be so surprised . Before the gods could take them I took action and preserved them, you see . ”
Said Allan .
“What the gods ordain according to the truths of the universe are nature’s providences . An examinee’s body ceasing to exist…that too can be said is a providence of nature . And dark magic is what alters that providence . ”
Finally, my question was answered .
It seemed that after I killed Heising, this man took his body .
And did something so that the corpse would not expire and be preserved .
Then, the fake soul Allan had, he had split into two .
And put them into Heising and the young Chinese woman examinee’s bodies .
And like a flame of life seeping into the body, the fake souls got sucked into the two bodies .
Awaken!
The two people opened their eyes .
“Now, I expect you to put up a good fight . I will watch from below . Since your flames are quite scary . ”
Allan descended just like that, splashing into the depths of the sea .
Heising and the woman examinee came crashing down .
But then, the woman examinee extended her hand,
Paat!
With the flow of some kind of energy, their two bodies flew up into the air .
‘She’s a magician!’
I could tell in the blink of an eye that the woman examinee has magic as her main skill .
And the more shocking truth .
That an undead with the orders from a dark magician could use skills they gained from the karma prizes they received in their previous life .
That was the real power of resurrected undead through fake souls .
Heising made a beeline straight towards me .
Heising, receiving support from the dark magician, was no longer at a disadvantage on the sea .
Aura fists rose from both of Heising’s fists . Then, like in his previous life, started using the exquisite attacks of fanziquan .
I was completely surprised and I shot up into the air .
The female examinee used her magic again and Heising and her come chasing after me .
Coming at me like that as a combo made it much more difficult than before!
“I’ll help!’
Shouted Cha Ji-hye as she came flying on number one .
“Target the woman! Heising is dangerous!”
“Don’t worry!”
Up in midair, entangled, we began the fight .
The rake eagles hung around our surroundings and tried to help, but there wasn’t much room for them to insert themselves .
If they got close and were hit by Heising’s aura fist, they’d be dead in an instant .
‘How will we win?’
I started to think about it hard .
There was definitely an answer .
As there had always been .
