Overgeared Chapter 571:
Clack clack, clack clack .
It was in an instant . Bairan, which had been ruined by the aftermath of the war, was rapidly recovering . The wreckage of collapsed houses were removed in the blink of an eye and new buildings were built again in its place . It was possible due to the large number of manpower .
A total of 70,000 people were working faithfully under the leadership of Asmophel and the five high rankers . Their physical force, tempered by the long march, was truly wonderful . Heavy loads were easily transported and they could make mountains in a few hours . They also had plenty of gold due to the large amount of golden armor that Duke Lucilliv’s soldiers were armed with .
In the future, Bairan would become incomparably bigger and more abundant . However, there was one crucial problem .
‘There isn’t enough food . ’
Duke Lucilliv didn’t have enough food for 100,000 troops . It was his arrogance that thought he could end the war quickly . The food kept in Bairan was also low . They would run out of food in the next fortnight . Asmophel’s eyes were bitter as he looked at the fields that were deserted due to the war .
‘It would be nice if there was one farmer directly taught by Piaro . ’
He could’ve trained farmers in Bairan and grew rainbow potatoes to solve the food shortage . The rainbow potato was a specialty of Reidan . It grew very fast, tasted good, and had high nutritional value . But there were no Reidan farmers present in Bairan . It was regrettable .
‘We’re in a war and Reidan can’t afford the food but . . . We will need to import food . ’
His greedy lord would be sad, but they had to sell the gold .
“Hmm?”
Asmophel was looking at the fields when he saw someone coming from far away . The person gradually got closer . He was wearing dirty clothes and a straw hat . He was carrying various types of farming equipment at his waist . This was a farmer .
‘Who?’
The direction that the farmer came from had a forest where various monsters popped up . A farmer broke through that forest alone and reached this place? Asmophel saw that the approaching farmer was an unusual person .
“Eh? Are you Asmophel, Piaro’s friend?”
"You . . . !”
Color returned to Asmophel’s face as he confirmed the identity of the approaching farmer . It was the farmer taught by Piaro before Piaro left for Siren, Hurent . He came to Bairan!
"Indeed, you are a person Piaro cared for . It was a great choice to train you . ”
“Huh?”
"You predicted that Bairan needed you and ran over? Really great . Long words aren’t necessary . Please help clear the fields . "
“Huh?”
"Teach the farmers in Bairan and grow the rainbow potatoes . ”
“Huh?”
"Then we will have enough food to feed 70,000 people!”
“Huh?!”
“Then I am asking you . ”
[The hidden quest ‘Solve Bairan’s Food Crisis’ has been created . ]
“ . . . ”
Aura Master Hurent . He came a long way with the belief that he was protecting Reidan’s fields, only to become a farmer in Bairan . The Overgeared members were unaware of this .
***
"There’s no answer . ”
"These status conditions are completely . . . ”
The Overgeared members grumbled . The great demon Belial summoned the 32nd Hell and succubuses emerged . Debuffs were stacked on debuffs . Due to these status conditions, the Overgeared members were extremely weakened, as if they were naked . Even Maxong was upset, while one of Overgeared’s best members, Faker had already died . It was also Belial’s second stage .
“This monster . . . ”
Raiding a great demon? At this point, it was completely impossible . It would be a few years before they could challenge it . As a simple example, the level 452 was forced on the defensive against Belial .
Pepeng!
Pepepepeng!
Belial used the fires of **** to create stronger flames that burned around Piaro’s body . Piaro defended quickly .
“There’s no hope . ”
Yes, the situation was so desperate there was no hope that the Belial raid would succeed . Now only despair was left .
"Of course, I won’t give up so easily . ”
The Overgeared members didn’t intend to give up . Their guild master Grid never gave up, so how could the people gathered under him give up?
“Wear some clothes and go home!’
"Sadistic things!"
The succubuses had sensual bodies . The Overgeared members started aiming their weapons at the various beautiful women who were lacking clothing . However, none of them could do anything big except for Ibellin . The level of the 32 Hell succubuses were level 320, while the average level of the Overgeared members was in the mid 200s .
"Huhuhut, you look **** when angry . Now relax . I'll make you feel good . ”
"I want to lick your skin . ”
The succubuses started to bewitch the Overgeared members . There were at least 50 succubuses and it was difficult to reject the charms of beautiful women . They became more desperate at the sight of hundreds of succubuses flying in the distance .
[You have been caught by the succubus’ bewitchment!]
[It’s hard to control your body . ]
[Magic resistance is reduced by 40%!]
“You will be delicious to eat . ”
The succubuses’ faces were red with ecstasy as they revealed their true nature . They started to absorb the stamina of the bewitched members .
“Ugh . . . . ”
“Dammit . . . ”
The Overgeared members were caught by pain or pleasure and quickly became helpless . Then solid lines that resembled spiderwebs flashed across the field of view of the confused Overgeared members . They couldn’t hear anything . There were just flashes . But the result was amazing .
[The succubus who has bewitched you has died . ]
[You are free from the bewitchment . ]
“What?”
The Overgeared members were astonished . The succubuses that threatened them were turning to grey?
‘Who?’
Who could kill dozens of level 320 monsters instantly? How many people in the world could use a wide area skill with such power? The Overgeared members were feeling stunned when a familiar voice was heard .
“I’m sorry for the delay . ”
The sky above the sky . It was the emergence of Sword Saint Kraugel . The darkness of **** was split in half as he leapt lightly over the hellfire river . He approached Belial, who was driving Piaro on the defensive, and aimed his sword at her weak spot .
[The distance with Belial is too close! You will receive 500 heat damage and 2,500 burn damage! You have resisted . ]
[Belial’s darkness has invaded your heart . You have resisted . ]
[Your mental . . . You have resisted . ]
[Super Sensitivity has scanned the subject’s body . ]
[It’s hard to expect a big effect from slashing attacks . A stabbing attack is recommended . ]
[Critical!]
[You have dealt 9,530 damage to the target . ]
“Ack?!”
Belial’s eyes widened . A new human appeared, jumped towards her stomach, and stabbed her? The stinging pain made Belial feel uncomfortable .
“Who are you?”
The great demon asked about a player . But Kraugel didn’t care . To Kraugel, a great demon was just a monster that gave better items . He ignored Belial’s question and supported Piaro .
“Brother, you have suffered . ”
“You . . . ”
Piaro’s eyes shook . Kraugel was clearly different from before . It was amazing compared to when Piaro was a great swordsman .
"You have finally become a Sword Saint!”
Piaro had appreciated Kraugel from the start . He could see that Kraugel was a person with more talent than himself . He believed that Kraugel could achieve the status of Sword Saint . It was faster than expected . Kraugel’s talent was much better than Piaro expected . It was Grid-like talent .
"I was able to achieve it due to Brother’s teachings . In addition, Grid . . . Brother’s lord also helped . ”
“Hah . . . Haha . ”
His own hard work and talent was attributed to others? Piaro really couldn’t hate a person like that . Piaro couldn’t help congratulating him, rather than feeling envious .
"Congratulations . We should spar at a later date . ”
"Shouldn’t we spar after defeating the great demon first? I’m not Brother’s opponent yet . ”
At this moment, Kraugel wasn’t better than Piaro . Lauel also knew this . Kraugel had become a Sword Saint in the National Competition’s PvP finals . He was only level 160 . This was the conclusion Lauel came to based on Kraugel’s understanding, intelligence, hunting ability, title effects, and Yura’s level up speed after she became a Demon Slayer . It was possible to reach level 160 in such a short amount of time because he was Kraugel . Lauel rated him extremely high .
‘But now I see . . . ’
Just like Grid, Kraugel was another person that Lauel couldn’t analyze . Kraugel killed 50 succubuses that were level 320 . He might have passed level 200 instead of being level 160 .
‘Is there hope?’
Belial was a monster that even Piaro couldn’t cope with . Kraugel’s level was much higher than expected, but it was doubtful that he could threaten Belial when Piaro couldn’t . However, Lauel already decided to believe in him . Kraugel wasn’t the type of person to spit out frivolous words . It was obvious he had some method .
The moment that Lauel felt faith .
“This human dares ignore me . ”
Kraugel was attacked by Belial . She attacked Kraugel with fists and feet covered with flames . Kraugel avoided it with Super Sensitivity and his innate insights . Then he made a party with Piaro and Damian . The party system was one of the few systems that NPCs and players shared . Piaro accepted the party invitation without hesitation and was surprised .
[You are in the field of party leader Kraugel]
[Sword Saint’s Aura is perfectly applied . The damage done to enemies will increase by 30% . The damage of sword related skills will double . This will last for the duration of the party . ]
It was the same with Damian .
[You can vaguely feel the party leader Kraugel’s field .
[Sword Saint’s Aura is slightly applied . The damage done to enemies will increase by 10% . This will last for the duration of the party . ]
‘A party buff?’
Was this the dignity of a legendary combat class? Kraugel shouted to the amazed Damian . It was surprising that he could talk in the middle of avoiding Belial’s continuous attacks .
"Give Brother the buff!”
“Ah, yes! Light's Blessing!”
[Attack power, defense, and accuracy has increased by 80% . ]
“Ohhh!”
Strength flooded into Piaro . It felt like he became another person .
Chaaeng!
Kraugel could no longer escape from Belial’s attack and started bleeding . He stepped back while defending and handed White Fang to Piaro . Piaro became confused as he received the sword . Why was a swordsman handing Piaro his sword? The question was quickly resolved .
"Can you show me your peak technique during your time as a great swordsman? Please enlighten my ignorant self . ”
"My peak swordsmanship . . . !”
Supreme Swordsmanship . The most powerful swordsmanship born on the East Continent that was proud of its power . His Free Farming style was based on the Supreme Swordsmanship, but it was inevitable that the power was inferior compared to the killing swordsmanship . Piaro grasped Kraugel’s intentions and didn’t hesitate .
“Running away!”
As Belial chased after the retreating Kraugel, Piaro wielded the sword .
“Supreme Swordsmanship 4th Style . ”
It felt like the flow of time stopped for Piaro . He stood alone with the sword . He didn’t shake as he faced Belial who was approaching here .
"You’re so overwhelmed that you have become a stone statue!”
Belial shouted as her momentum increased .
"Splitting the Sky . ”
The sky fell .
Kurururung!
Piaro timed it precisely for the moment when Belial narrowed the distance .
Kwajak!
Kwajajajajak!
Hundreds of energy blades poured from the fallen sky . It turned the landscape of **** and Belial into rags .
“K . . . Kuooooock!”
The third scream . Following Pounding Mortar and Fated to Perish, Belial’s health gauge once again decreased . It was a weak level, but there was new hope .
Kkuok .
Kraugel received White Fang back from Piaro and moved . He took the same stance as Piaro .
“Swordsmanship Creation . ”
The strongest swordsman .
"Splitting the Sky . ”
He inherited the power of the strongest swordsman .
Kurururung!
Once again, the sky collapsed and Belial couldn’t even scream .
