Reincarnator Chapter 255:
Reincarnator - Chapter 255 : War Fortress (2)
Papapapa .
A single humanoid form was charging through the maze .
Well, through the tunnel that had been created straight towards the War Fortress .
‘ . . . Arthus Krancheska . What a monster . There shouldn’t be any issues right?’
The woman who was running, Einchel, mumbled inwardly .
She was extremely worried only leaving behind Hansoo and the Ain to deal with a heavenly disaster of a being .
But she soon shook her head .
She wouldn’t be much help in dealing with such a monster of a being .
She would only get in their way .
And she had to focus on her own objective .
There was no time to play around .
This tunnel had been created while Krancheska climbed down .
Of course it was connected to the center of the War fortress .
‘If I drop my guard then . . . I’ll die . ’
Einchel slowed down as she got closer to the gaping hole through which sunlight shone .
And carefully climbed up while using all of her stealth skills to their utmost .
The further she went up and the closer she got to the hole, more and more noises poured into her ears .
The shouts of the players and the residents of the War Fortress .
“Let’s go out! Come on! They’re giving out quests!”
“Jackpot! They give this much even if we just participate?”
“Yo! Tell all the clansmen to come as well! This actually seems like a jackpot!”
Einchel frowned as she heard these words .
‘ . . . They’re using them well huh . ’
Though they were weak, they were still immortal and had many in numbers .
Though the high-level powerhouses of the kingdoms ignored them because they were merely bugs, even bugs would become terrifying if there was a huge number of them .
And these guys had no fear of death which was an important factor in a battle .
It meant that these guys were very good meat shields .
The Kingdoms knew this so they were attracting the players from all around with a tremendous amount of treasures and rewards .
It meant that they didn’t want the Ains to reach the Spirit Land that much .
Though the Ains were handling the forces of the kingdoms pretty well, the situation didn’t look very good for them to celebrate just yet .
Because if the players rushed towards them like waves then the Ains wouldn’t be able to block them either .
Einchel thought of what Hansoo had said to her before she left .
<This is a chance of some sort . >
Like what Hansoo had said, Einchel carefully climbed up to the War Fortress .
And after coming up to the fortress, she could finally see the situation .
‘ . . . **** . I’ve never seen it being so empty . ’
The War Fortress, which had always been packed tightly, was empty .
From the guards who watched over the walls to the players who looked for quests .
‘This is why it was so easy to climb up . ’
Einchel mumbled .
Of course it wasn’t entirely empty but compared to the usual War Fortress, this was the same as a deserted town .
‘It should be a bit easier to move around now…’
There was no time to waste .
Since the adventurers of the Ant Tunnels would’ve spread out far and wide already .
A risky choice the 800 of them had made due to the amount of work they had to do within this vast area in a short amount of time .
Einchel quickly looked over the area and started to run towards the center .
Then .
One of the players who had seen Einchel looked to her in confusion .
‘What the hell?’
Everyone was running out from the War Fortress .
Everybody including the ones who had been here originally and the ones who came in through the warp gates .
But for somebody to run to the center of the plaza .
‘And I feel like I saw her before . ’
As the player, Karax, was lost in confusion .
One of the party members next to Karax tapped his shoulder and spoke .
“Yo, What are you doing? There’s no time . We have to go out . ”
Though the history and battle-related quests were famous for having a large amount of rewards for participating, they were even more famous for their penalties .
Penalty .
A system which was applied when they did not participate .
Of course they didn’t pick on them or kill them one by one, but the players would face an annoying situation after the quests end .
Like the prices of the stores increasing or warping to certain areas being banned .
Though this could buy the hatred of the players, it wasn’t like they really died from the battle and since the rewards were good, most players participated anyway .
Karax nodded at the party member’s words .
His words were right .
‘Well . She probably has her own issues to deal with . ’
Participating in the quest outside was of more importance .
But then Karax suddenly stopped .
“Yo . I figured out where I saw that girl before . ”
“What . Is she like your ex or something?”
While his party membered laughed at Karax, he replied with a serious face .
“Blacklist . The most recent one . ”
“Huh?”
All the party members stopped .
By saying recent, he was talking about the blacklist that was updated an hour ago .
<Great Maze Massacre Incident . >
A huge incident where tens of thousands of players who had been trapped in the Great Maze got massacred .
It wasn’t like the war had started so due to such a large amount of people dying in such a short amount of time, the clans and groups all went into emergencies and looked into the situation .
And everyone made shocked expressions when they figured out who had caused all this .
Bug players .
The close to one thousand bug players, who had been hiding in the corners of the maze, had done all this .
Some people were even suspicious that this incident was the Ant Eater clan trying to broaden their powers .
The bug players were merely cockroaches inside the normal player’s minds, not something which would bite them back .
And for them to cause such a massacre with just a thousand in number .
No matter how strong they were, they couldn’t be that strong .
But soon their questions were answered .
The evidence from various groups had surfaced .
<Gah . We were going to fight for it but some crazy **** . . . He was really strong . >
<What the **** can we do when a guy like him charges onto us . What the **** is Exodus doing!>
<One of them… Ugh . Is he even a bug player? I thought he was some supernatural being from the Kingdoms> .
And a clear reward had been set .
<To anybody who kills those from the new blacklist, you could get achievement points plus a 9% reduction in price on the use of warp gates and other various facilities . >
The Kingdom’s pride had been hurt so this was a decision they made to catch and massacre them all .
And there were a few other benefits .
Killing them was not a matter of experience and artifacts anymore .
The party members standing next to Karax looked at him in delight .
“Nice, how did you see that? Not bad . ”
“Heheh . I knew this **** would achieve something one day . ”
Karax’s confidence spiked up as he spoke with a smile .
“So? You’re going to go out? To that battlefield?”
The 50 or so party members chuckled to each other .
“Well . That can wait a bit . ”
……………………………………… .
Boooooom!
Booom!
“Catch her! Hey! Catch that girl! She’s a bug player!”
Karax shouted out loud while chasing Einchel throughout the plaza and pouring out skills .
The surrounding players heard this one by one, looked at Einchel and then started to send out skills as well .
“Woah! It’s the first time I saw…”
Crunch!
Einchel sent the head of a player charging towards her into a ball of golden light and grinded her teeth .
‘Fucking bastards! They react too fast!’
Because the reaction of the Kingdoms and the Ant Eater clans were so quick, these players were chasing her much more actively .
Her own level was at 240 .
And because her level had risen quite a lot compared to the past, her combat abilities rose a lot as well .
She could handle the 50 or so chasing her from behind .
But then?
It was empty compared to the usual, it didn’t mean it was completely empty .
All the players remaining inside the War Fotress would charge towards her .
And her objective wasn’t to bicker around with these players .
‘Thank **** . . . That there’s less of them . ’
Einchel, who had been looking around with all of her scanning type skills, looked towards the plaza of the War Fortress and grinded her teeth .
If the War Fortress was busy like the usual then she wouldn’t even have been able to get this far .
‘But . . . I’m here!’
The moment Einchel stepped onto the center of the War Fortress, the plaza .
Booooom!
‘Fuck!’
A huge explosion occurred in front of Einchel and smashed her away .
And Einchel’s body rose up into the air from this .
The players who were chasing Einchel look towards the person who attacked her in shock .
‘The Ant Eater clans . . . They reset themselves and came here already?’
It costed more gold the longer the revival timer was .
And the Gold and Scarlet Demons standing there was known to have been the first ones to get killed down below from the massacre .
But even so, not a long time had been past which meant that those guys spent a tremendous amount of gold to get back here .
‘Tsk . Nothing will be in it for us . ’
As Karax clicked his tongue like looking at the Gold and Scarlet Demons who were surrounding Einchel .
Sharon Stiller looked at Einchel, the person whom she had seen the moment she revived and the one of those who caused all this, and laughed in a cold manner .
“How lucky . We see each other again . Anyways, I don’t understand why you guys are spread out like this . ”
Sharon Stiller had access to a large amount of information .
And according to what she had heard, everybody was heading towards the plaza here .
There was no reason why they would’ve been split up like this if they didn’t have any plans .
Well, it didn't matter .
If she waited here then she would be able to kill them off one by one .
And as if Einchel read Sharon Stiller’s minds, she chuckled and spoke .
“Shouldn’t you at least figure out why we’re gathering to this place?”
“Hmm?”
Sharon Stiller frowned at Einchel’s words .
‘This **** . Doesn’t understand the situation huh . Well since you’re first, you can tell us . ’
Though her Spirit Stone hadn’t recovered yet, she could easily handle this girl without it .
Kiring!
As Sharon Stiller pulled her sword out from the sheath and walked towards Einchel .
Papapapat!
Papapat!
The entire plaza started to shine in golden light .
Around Einchel .
And around Sharon Stiller, the Gold and Scarlet Demons as well .
Even around Karax and his party members .
And everyone freaked out as they saw this .
“What the hell?”
“The fuck! Is some clan coming over?”
“No . This . . . Looks like a login?”
“No way! How can they log in to the point of filling up the entire plaza!? How many are logging in…”
As the people freaked out .
Sharon Stiller clenched her teeth as she felt something ominous .
The confident attitude of the girl in front of her .
The girl probably knew about the current situation and was still that confident .
And Sharon Stiller did not like her expression .
‘I’ll kill you before that . Try smiling after you get beheaded . ’
Roaaarrr!
Sharon Stiller’s blade flew across the air along with a huge noise .
Towards Einchel’s neck .
‘Fuck!’
Einchel clenched her teeth and tried to back up .
She wanted to buy some time while these guys were in a daze but for Sharon to just charge at her like this .
She had long depleted her stamina running here .
And her opponent was not some random player but a pro player whose job was killing people like her .
‘Shit . ’
As Einchel fell into despair while staring into the blade which smashed apart her skills and was heading towards her neck .
Crunch!
There was a hand which grabbed her arm .
“Huh?”
Sharon was startled as somebody who had grabbed her arm but soon frowned as she pushed forward .
‘I don’t know who you are but . . . I’m level 250!’
Uudududuk .
Then .
She forcefully pushed through despite the arm grabbing her and then continued to slash .
‘Try laughing you **** . ’
As Sharon was about to laugh for herself .
Kwaduk .
Kwaduduk .
Over the hand which had grabbed her arm, dozens of other arms popped out and grabbed onto her .
Arms from dozens of people who came out from the golden light .
“Yo! Catch this bitch! Jesus, she’s strong!”
“It doesn’t seem like this is the girl… Hey you, the girl over there . Are you the guide?”
Sharon could handle one but multiple dozens was a different story .
“Fuck…”
As sharon cursed out in a dumbfounded manner after being immobilized .
The man who had grabbed onto her arm in the beginning shouted .
“Hey! If they don’t have the mark then kill them all! We’re organizing this place first!”
“Okay!”
Kwadududuk!
‘Fucking seriously? . . . ’
Hundreds of thousands of golden lights .
Sharon Stiller fell into despair as she saw hundreds of spears flying at her .
