Seoul Station’s Necromancer Chapter 103:
Chapter 103 - Dimensional Domain
Woojin took out the Dimensional Fragments from his inventory .
He gained one at Pyeongyang, Melody had given him one, and he had just found one more right now . He had a total of 3 .
Weeeeeng .
The fist sized gems rose into the air as it resonated .
The vibrating gems swirled around, and it combined to create a single gem . Then it started to slowly descend . Woojin snatched it out of the air, and the bright light disappeared . A purple light vibrated inside the gem as it rippled . The light was swaying as if it was about to flow out of the gem . It was reminiscent of a light trapped inside a glass bottle .
“Mmmm . ”
Woojin looked at the gem's info .
<Dimensional Proof>
You can possess a piece of torn Dimension .
“I guess it's not here . ”
If he wanted a piece of a torn Dimension as his Dimensional Domain, he had to find the right Dungeon . If a Dungeon was compatible with him, it would react to him on its own volition . There was no reaction from this Dungeon . Maybe it was because this wilderness had been owned by Juliel .
Woojin put the Dimensional Proof inside his Inventory, then he swept his gaze around the surrounding .
He wanted to see if Juliel's Wilderness had trophies like Rashmode's Lab .
“Bibi . Let's look for it . ”
“All right . ”
Bibi moved at a trot as she looked all over the wilderness . Woojin also activated his Search Magic, and he carefully looked over Juiel's nest .
There was signs of the earth being disturbed near the corner of the cave . The color of the earth was different as if it was used to cover up something . Woojin could feel powerful mana emanating from below .
Woojin started digging, and he found a pile of bones buried underneath .
“Mmmm . What the hell… . ”
Bones of various monsters were there . They all looked the same as if the bones were all part of a specific anatomy .
The bones were the size of a decent sized club, and Woojin could tell this was Juliel's preferred snacks .
Amongst all of the bones, he picked up the large bones emanating the most mana .
<Red Dragon's 3rd Rib>
<Blue Dragon's 3rd Rib>
<Tricolored Gorilla's 3rd Rib>
The Dragon's ribs were massive, and the Tricolored Gorilla’s rib was the size of a club . Woojin put away these items that was seeped with mana, then he headed towards Bibi .
“I guess this is it… . ”
“…… . ”
Woojin looked at what Bibi had found, and he shook his head from side to side .
“There aren't anything useful here . ”
At a glance, he could only see remains of monsters . Basically, it was the monsters' leftover food . There were some miscellaneous items found, but overall there weren't anything of note .
“I think that's dog hair?”
“Yeah . Let's head out now . ”
“Understood, master . May I go around in this form?”
“Mmmm… . ”
Woojin looked at Bibi .
She was a devil, but her outer appearance was that of a 10 year old girl .
“Until you regain your true form, just stay in your cat form . ”
“Heh heh . All right . ”
Bibi turned into her cat form, then she disappeared into the Summon Room . The Death Knights also returned to the Summon Room . Woojin picked up the Return Stone that was next to the Dimensional Fragment, and he exited the Dungeon .
“Hyung-nim!”
Sunggoo was in front of the Dungeon, and he was waiting longingly for Woojin .
“The Dungeon Breaks are happening continuously . If things continue as is right now, I'm afraid something will happen to Seoul . ”
“Where's it happening?”
“The Breaks are keep happening along the 4th line . I heard the news on the radio just a moment ago, and the Yongsan Station is Breaking right now . ”
“Organize the surrounding . ”
"Yes, hyung-nim . Please be careful . ”
The roads were a mess, and it was blocked with destroyed cars . He won't be able to get anywhere on a car . Woojin summoned his Phantom Steed, Shing shing .
Heeeeeeeng!
The Phantom Steed jumped between the cars as it ran down the road .
The monsters were rampaging everywhere, and there weren't enough Roused and soldiers to hunt them . It was a common sight to see civilian being chased down by monsters .
“Go kill them . ”
[We obey your order . ]
Woojin rode down the road on his Phantom Steed, and he sent out his Death Knights every time he saw monsters .
“It's been only 5 years since the Dungeon Shock, so why is everything still like this?”
It had only been 5 years ago . Half the population of Seoul had been killed .
They advertised the success of Dungeon Businesses and the fact that Seoul was safe instead of preparing for future Dungeon Breaks . . . .
The first one could be considered an accident, but when it happens for the second time, everyone was at fault .
At the very least, they shouldn't have built the residential areas near the Dungeons .
“Chet . Go kill those guys over there . If people start attacking you guys, just go back into the Summon Room . ”
[As the Monarch commands!]
Each of the Death Knights spread out to hunt down the monsters . Their outer appearance wasn't that much different from Undead Monsters, so the Roused might attack them by mistake . This was why they were were ordered to immediately return to the Summon Room .
When Woojin arrived at the Yongsan station, it was in a complete pandemonium . As if several entrances nearby had Broken out, there were monsters of various shapes and sizes lining the streets .
“It would have been great if I had Jaenis… . ”
Amongst his Immortal Army, Jaenis was the best in terms of firepower . He couldn't help, but feel the loss when he was confronted with a situation like this . Fortunately, he was leveling fast, so it seemed his days of meeting Jaenis wasn't far off .
“Go, Dolsae . ”
Weeeeeng .
It hadn't been long since the Dungeon Break had happened, so the place was crawling with monsters . Dolsae flew toward this place .
Chulkuk, Chulkuk!
The nearby vehicles gathered in a single location to make a large Steel Golem . It didn't have firepower like the missiles and machine guns, but the Steel Golem itself was enough to crush the monsters .
If Woojin joined in, the monster hunting would become faster, but it would end up being endless . One doesn't pail the rising water . Instead, one has to block the leak .
“I don't know who it is, but once I catch him . . . ”
Woojin had no idea how someone was causing a Break . However, he'll be able to find out the reason and method when he caught the culprit .
Woojin rode Shing Shing towards the North .
“Shit . ”
Monsters were pouring out from a Dungeon Break that happened right now . Woojin summoned his Bone Spears to make a Wall of Bones near the entrance . He imprisoned the monsters .
“Koo-roo-rook!”
Kwahng, kwahng!
The Wall of Bones would be broken soon by the rampaging monsters, but it would give a little bit more time for the people to evacuate . There was an evacuation announcement earlier, so there weren't a lot of civilians, who hadn't run away .
“Is that the next one?”
<Seoul Station>
Woojin looked at the Seoul Station .
He had to find out why the already cleared Dungeons were Breaking . Woojin once again summoned the Death Knights, who had returned to the Summon Room after they finished their missions . He sent them towards the monsters that were about to escape the Bone Prison .
Woojin tried to predict the next Break, so he headed towards the Seoul Station .
‘Why is this happening?’
He wanted to know why the Dungeon Breaks were happening .
This couldn't be a natural phenomena . Other places were fine yet Seoul, Korea was in a mess . Moreover, the Break was happening in order instead of Breaking at the same time .
‘Someone is artificially creating the Dungeon Breaks . ’
It had been 5 years since the Dungeon Shock .
This was the first instance where cleared Dungeons went into a Break .
So what had changed in all that time?
‘Rashmode . Then Juliel . ’
Trahnet's commander .
They started showing themselves .
Even if they were mere 1st or 2nd thrones, the fact that they had showed up in this place was important . Soon the 3rd throne would show up, and the Mana level on earth would increase at a much faster rate . The vassals of the upper echelon thrones would be showing up .
‘Someone is controlling this . ’
He needed to know what method was being used, so he could prevent this in advance . The lack of knowledge frustrated him .
If this was caused from a different Dimension, the Dungeon Break wouldn't happen consecutively down the road . If a Commander had a hobby of looking at the map of the subway line, this might be plausible . This led him to believe that the switch for the Dungeon Breaks were being flipped from earth .
Someone was moving down the subway line .
Woojin waited for a long time . However, none of the entrances to the Seoul Station Broke, so he put more energy into his senses .
‘Does it need more time?’
If one looked at the pattern of the Break, the next target was the Seoul Station . However, it wasn't occurring yet . Did the act of causing a Dungeon Break take a lot of time?
Woojin waited an extra 30 minute, but the Dungeon Break didn't occur .
‘I'm sure . ’
The only thing that had changed was that Woojin had arrived at Seoul Station ahead of time .
Woojin was now sure that the Dungeon Break was caused by someone, and this culprit had seen Woojin . It had caused this unknown person to stop . If this person realized Woojin was waiting for him here, he might take a roundabout route to head towards another Dungeon .
Woojin fine-tuned his senses as he expanded it . The Death Knights and the Roused, who had taken care of the monster wave from before, were heading toward Woojin .
“Mr Kahng-woojin . ”
“…?”
“I'm the vice president of KH Guild, Lee-myungjin . I've heard a lot about you . ”
“I'm the president of Joas Guild, Oh-taegyu . It is an honor to meet someone I've only seen through the tv . ”
“My name is Kim-chuljin . I'm with the Route Guild . It is a great honor to meet . . . . ”
The battle had just ended . The monsters couldn't run away after being penned in . The Death Knights and the Roused subjugated the monsters, but . . .
After clearing the monsters, the Roused discovered Woojin, and they scuttled over to give their greetings .
Several of them were looking at him with envy, and the rest looked at him as if he was a celebrity . Their eyes were filled with wonder and curiosity .
They were well acquainted with Woojin, but Woojin didn't know any of them .
He wasn't some celebrity that need to worry about his fan's feelings . . .
“Why don't we go catch more monsters?”
“Other Roused should have mobilized towards the other side . ”
The Capital Defense Command's Special Roused team, and the Roused from various quilds were quickly brought into the regions with the Dungeon Breaks . Sadahng station was the first Break, so the casualties were the heaviest there .
The other locations were somewhat able to predict which stations would break, so a lot of the civilians in the north of the Han River was evacuated . This resulted in very few casualties . Moreover, the Roused were called to the region to join the hunt, so everything was resolved quickly .
“Do you think I can take a selfie with you?”
“If you want to use it as your portrait when you are dead, I'll let you take it . ”
“…… . ”
Every Roused shut their mouth at Woojin's brutal words . Woojin looked around his surrounding as he frowned .
There was a female mage in her 20s possessing a small wand with a crystal embedded on it .
Woojin looked at her . When their eyes met, her eyes turned wide like a bunny from surprise .
She acted as if she was suddenly on camera . She looked at the surrounding people to check Woojin was looking at her .
Woojin frowned as he took steps towards the woman .
“W . . . why?”
When Woojin walked straight towards her, the flustered woman took a step back .
“It would be best if you stay still . ”
“…… . ”
The woman felt like she couldn't breath at Woojin's words . It felt as if she was going to be sucked into Woojin's eyes . His eyes was like that of a tyrannical wild beast . Her feet never froze like this even when she had faced an ogre .
Woojin approached the woman, and he punched the woman in the face .
Kwah-jeek!
She hadn't really expected to be hit, so the woman fell backwards . She was sprawled on the floor . The surrounding bystanders were shocked . They knew he was buck-wild, but not to this degree . . . .
Everyone looked at each other to see if they should stop this or not . While they were hesitating, a strange sight was seen by their eyes .
The outline of the woman was blinking and swaying .
Woojin used the end of his Staff to brush back the woman's hair . The edges of a hood appeared as it got caught on the end of the Staff, and it was pulled backwards .
When the hood was taken off, the transparent cloak came into view, and the woman was nowhere to be seen . Instead, a red-nosed Lee-sahngho was revealed .
“Koo . How did you know?”
Lee-sahngho let out a **** laugh .
He had spent a fortune to buy the Cloak of Illusions .
“I have an expert on my side . ”
Woojin summoned his Steel Staff, and he laughed .
