Reincarnator Chapter 395:
Chapter 395: Owner of the crystal (3)
—rumble—
The Pompeion Empire .
In a terrace high up in the clouds .
The emperor spoke to Sangjin with a worried expression .
“Is . . . Is the crystal inside that place really impossible to acquire?”
The emperor looked towards the territory of Reyunion with a frown .
Of course .
The Pompeion Empire had taken over half of the planet with only one relic .
The same for the Neropa Union as well .
If they didn’t have the relic as well, then they would’ve long been defeated .
But how sad was it that such a relic was lying around in some wasteland?
Although they couldn’t use the <Flame> inside that place…
There were countless other methods to acquire it if they wanted .
For example, if he asked this man, Sangjin, then he would easily sweep that place up in a single day and bring it back .
‘What a pity… Such a pity…’
If he could acquire that, his plans would come to fruition much quicker .
Sanjin replied:
“Acquiring it isn’t hard . ”
“Hmm . Then—”
“But . ”
Before the emperor could finish his words—
—Sangjin cut him off and spoke as he stared into the emperor’s eyes .
“I guarantee you this: you will lose more than you could even dare to imagine if you take that crystal out . ”
“ . . . You’re saying this despite knowing of my strength?’
The Emperor glanced below his terrace and mumbled .
The thousands of ships and his swarm of Dragon God Soldiers .
A force large enough to flip the entire world upside down a couple of times .
There were only a few people who could threaten him .
The Neropa Union?
Although they were going against him now, they were a joke .
They could not make him feel fear .
Sangjin continued to speak as he looked at the confident expression of the emperor .
“I know very clearly . ”
‘About the things inside there as well . ’
Sangjin thought of the crystal he had to give up .
………………………………………
Kiriel frowned as she listened to N-Aroel’s words .
‘He came to take the crystal?’
N-Aroel, the Nerpa, ignored her reaction and looked at the crystal .
It was one of the controllers that the overseer had left so they could control the <Flame> with more ease .
‘It seems this will be easier than I expected . ’
The Nerpa smiled as he thought of the scene he’d witnessed from above .
The other two crystals had so many forces around it that even he wouldn’t dare to approach it .
But this crystal only had one alien protecting it .
‘Time to finish this up . ’
The Nerpa ignored Kiriel as he walked towards the Crystal .
And as he did this—
—oooooooong—
—as if it were resonating with the Nerpa, the crystal started to make a strange noise .
Just as if it had found its missing half .
“Yes, yes . It has been a while . ”
But as the Nerpa was about to touch the crystal—
—pakakakakak!—
—a huge crevice appeared between the Nerpa and the crystal .
If the Nerpa hadn’t pulled back his arm, then he would’ve lost his fingers .
“Hmm… Why are you interfering? When I’m just here to take back my own belongings?”
Kiriel, who had swung her fang to attack the Nerpa, smiled as she said:
“Well, we need that as well . ”
‘I’m also getting the strong feeling that the crystal should not be touched . ’
Kiriel felt shivers running down her back .
She had protected this place because of Hansoo’s words .
But the moment N-Aroel tried to touch the crystal, tremors wracked her entire body .
And she instinctively knew that she had to protect the crystal .
It was the key to holding down the mysterious beings inside the shadows .
The Nerpa sighed as he looked at Kiriel .
“I really didn’t want to fight since you helped me out once…”
His race did not enjoy fighting .
But they couldn’t ignore those who messed with them, right?
‘Although I don’t have my body…’
The Nerpa looked down at the body that his soul was now occupying .
A feeble body .
His powerful body that could even survive in space didn’t exist anymore .
But it didn’t matter .
Their powerful bodies were their pride but…
Their true pride was their souls that had a special and terrifying ability .
‘I’ll leave you alive . ’
—rumble—
The Nerpa’s Soul situated within N-Aroel’s body started shaking intensely .
…………………………………………… . .
“You f***ing baastaaard!”
The berserk John Stone swung his axe towards Hansoo .
—whooosh!—
The bright red axe continued to fly towards Hansoo .
And as Hansoo’s armor turned bright—
—boooom!—
—the axe and armor collided, making a huge noise .
—crackle!—
The axe’s attack was so powerful that the blue armor cracked apart .
‘Damn!’
But John Stone didn’t look pleased .
He frowned as he watched the armor regenerate, shouting:
“You bastards! Hurry and attack him while I hold him down! Unless you wish to die!”
At those words—
—the other Transcendents who had been hesitating looked around them .
At the Transcendents rolling around the floor while surrounded by red clouds .
“Ahhhhhh!”
“Uaaaaahhh!”
Countless Transcendents rolled around on the floor, screaming in pain .
Some were silent and trembled vigorously .
Some clutched at their necks as if they had drunk poison .
Every single person who had tried to fight Hansoo had turned out like this .
‘Dammit!… Dammit!’
John Stone freaked out as he looked at the people rolling around on the ground .
Feeling so terrified it suppressed his berserk mode to a degree .
But John Stone clenched his teeth and charged forward .
“Bastards! That’s a skill as well! Do you think he can use it forever?! There’s a time limit! Charge and kill him!”
John Stone shouted as he swung his axe .
And just like he said .
As red clouds enveloped his body—
—the surrounding area had turned into hell, but the reinforcements around Hansoo’s body had awakened .
The fact that he could actually damage Hansoo proved this .
If Hansoo had shrouded himself tightly and only focused on fighting him, then he wouldn’t even be able to stand right now .
Which meant that the area next to Hansoo was the safest place .
As John Stone charged in, the surrounding 3-Star Transcendents nodded and followed suit .
Although John Stone’s personality was nasty, he was their leader because he always fought on the frontlines .
Although his personality was nasty and he was arrogant, the fact that he fought on the frontlines was more than enough to make him their leader .
Since he always dove into the most dangerous place by himself .
But sadly .
Their current situation really wasn’t great .
—booom!—
“Uaaaaah!”
John Stone screamed as he looked at Hansoo smash the charging 3-Star Transcendents down onto the ground .
‘This—this monster!’
Every time he let out more clouds, the other Transcendents rolled around in pain, and with every swing of his dragon-enforced hammer, the 3-Star Transcendents turned into pulps of flesh .
Weak points?
None .
He also had a terrifying amount of experience and battle sense .
Dodge when needed and charge when there’s a gap .
He attacked when he had to and gave up bits of his flesh when he needed to .
Possessing tremendous power and terrifying skills .
Alongside his insanely overpowered armor, he had that mysterious but insanely powerful weapon .
‘Th—This damned bastard!’
John Stone seethed in rage as he stared at Hansoo who seemed to have learned how to massacre people from his mother’s womb .
“You bastard! That crystal is our only hope! Who are you to stop us from taking it?! Ahhh!”
—boooom!—
John Stone cried out in rage as he continued to attack .
He’d learned many things as he climbed up .
He was strong .
But there were countless monsters in the world .
And those monsters had an appetite that was befitting of their power .
John Stone had felt this as he looked at Clementine’s forces who treated everyone’s lives as if they were nothing .
To not be killed by them, he needed to become strong as well .
At least to keep his underlings alive, he needed strength .
Strength to retaliate when attacked .
And the crystal was the only method he had to catch up to those running far ahead of him .
But who was Hansoo to come out of nowhere and stop him from taking this?
And he wasn’t even trying to take it for himself either .
‘Y—You bastard! If you won’t let us take it, then at least take it yourself!”
John Stone mourned .
Just like in the past .
If Hansoo could stand before them with this strength .
If he was stopping them because he was going to do that .
He could understand .
But what was this?
John Stone cried out tears of blood as he looked at his underlings dying around him .
And Hansoo, who had turned everyone around him immobile, suddenly stopped .
“So, you had a hidden card, right?”
“ . . . ?”
As everyone looked at Hansoo mumbling strange words—
—booom!—
—Hansoo disappeared towards the hole in the distance .
‘Huh . . . Huh?’
John Stone was in disbelief .
He’d basically won the battle, why did he leave?
But as everyone was making confused expressions—
—booooom!—
—alongside a terrifyingly loud sound of explosion—
—a tremendous earthquake resonated out from where the crystal lay beneath the hole .
