Chapter 124: Chapter 124
[The level has risen!]
[The level has risen!]
....
Suho continued to march into the Echo Forest while mercilessly smashing the ice golems that were endlessly swarming.
[Clear the way! Keep pushing!]
[A death mace to all the cursed tribes that stand in the way of the little lord!] The
Guardian Shadow Corps, supported by Quay and Ver, moved forward without hesitation.
Even if the ice golems that obsessively block them continue to regenerate.
At this rate, even if it was like stepping into the middle of enemy lines.
'If only there was a mother in front of me!'
Suho never stopped advancing.
"Pierce!"
[Geuuuuuuu!]
A terrible battle that kills each other fiercely and resurrects endlessly.
And the back of Suho, who doesn't hide behind the soldiers and takes the lead in destroying and smashing the golems...
'...my God.'
Shirka was watching with a shocked expression.
'Is this the son of Chacha?'
If Cha Hae-in's battle was like watching a beautiful dance, Suho's battle is truly a storm.
In the center of the storm, he was crushing the bodies of enemies bigger than himself.
oh oh!
The shadow soldiers did not lose either.
A grueling hand-to-hand combat led by two shadow minotaurs.
The overwhelming violence emanating from that strong body!
When Ber's support was added to it...
[Ber uses 'Skill: Harsh Command'.]
['Skill: Harsh Command' increases the stats of beast-type shadow soldiers by 50%.] [
'Skill: Harsh Command' As a side effect of 'harsh command', beast-type shadow soldiers are cursed with insanity.]
[Kwoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]
Minnow and Tau, who suddenly turned into berserkers themselves, completely went berserk.
He wielded his muscular arms, which were swollen as if they were about to explode, and began to literally destroy not only the ice golems, but also the forest itself.
Kwajik! Bang!
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwa Kwa Kwam!
It was to the point where the ice golems looked pitiful.
'But the real thing starts now.'
Sirka warned Suho.
"This is the Echo Forest! And from now on...!"
Before he could finish his words, a huge number of ice arrows began attacking the Shadow Soldiers in the forest.
Shush shush shush shush shush!
"...!"
Seeing this, Suho's eyes flashed.
The bodies of the soldiers hit by the arrows were immediately frozen.
And blah blah!
It became a piece of ice and shattered on the spot.
Suho turned his gaze to find the guys who shot the arrows.
Familiar figures atop the densely grown trees of the Echo Forest were aiming their bowstrings in this direction.
"Ice elves?"
"no! They...!"
Shirka opened her mouth with a complex expression.
"...Our tribe members whose spirits were eaten by the spirits of the Echo Forest."
'Ah, that's it.'
Suho recalled the story the Ice Elves had told him about the Echo Forest in the village.
The Echo Forest was a forbidden land that even the Ice Elves could not come out of alive once they set foot in it.
That's why.
'Is that what it means to be possessed by a spirit?'
Suho deflected their arrows with his sword and quickly inspected them.
White ghosts aiming their bows on top of a dense tree branch.
Their eyes were unfocused, and what I felt in those empty eyes was pure madness itself.
In addition, their bodies were half-frozen, and even if their bodies were torn or cut by the shadow soldiers' counterattack, a cold blizzard came from somewhere and reattached the wounds.
No, to be exact, it was 'freeze'.
"It looks like an ice golem."
"Exactly... they're the same guys."
Suho nodded his head at Sirka's answer, which seemed disturbed.
[Ice Golem]
[Ice Golem]
....
As Sirka explained, the name tag 'Ice Golem' was attached to the heads of the ice elves who were possessed by spirits.
And as the battle continues to prove it.
The more ice clings to their wounds and regenerates over and over again.
Gradually, their appearances were changing from ice elves to ice golems.
If the golems outside the forest were created by spirits dwelling in the blizzard, the golems here were spirits inhabiting the corpses of ice elves who died in the Echo Forest.
However, seeing them skillfully shooting arrows using their innate skills even after death, Suho suddenly realized.
"Were these guys the ones who shot the arrows in the first place?"
The ice golems that caused the ground to collapse and cause them to fall here.
Right before they appeared, it seemed that these guys were the ones who had shot arrows and attacked this side.
Basically, they were on the same side.
'...That means there is another gate leading to the outside somewhere in this Echo Forest.'
There was no way these guys flew through the sky and came over to Earth, so there was another passage.
"I am here now."
Shirka, who had been following Suho until now, suddenly hesitated and spoke.
"I want to follow you further, but if I go further into the forest, I will be possessed by the spirits like that."
At those words, Suho looked at Sirka.
In this sense-disturbing blizzard, Shirka was a road guide I liked, so I wanted to keep taking her with me.
"Is there any way to stop the spirits?"
"Very few. Basically, our tribe and the spirits here have a high affinity. So, if I make up my mind and the spirits target me, there is little way to protect my mind."
"Does saying there are few mean that there are?"
"Ugh. That's actually..."
"...?"
When Suho suddenly saw Sirka looking at him, Suho had a puzzled look on his face.
"I'm asking just in case, that fur."
"A fur coat? Oh this?"
"huh. Isn't that Ice Bear's fur?"
"ah. that's right."
Suho nodded, and Sirka opened her mouth hesitantly.
"Actually... Ice spirits don't get along well with Ice Bear. That's why the spirits won't come close to me if I'm wearing that fur coat."
"Oh, was it like that?"
"ah! Of course, I absolutely do not mean to ask for the clothes! Ice Bear's skin is the symbol of a warrior. I know how important the clothes are to the warrior who killed Ice Bear..."
Jjag-lak.
[I purchased 'Item: Ice Bear's Robe'.]
"Now, put it on."
"...!"
Suddenly, a new fur coat appeared on Suho's hand, and Shirka's widened eyes filled with emotion.
"you you...! What a nice guy!"
"Hurry up and get dressed. Can't you see I'm busy right now?"
Even in the midst of this, a huge rain of arrows was pouring down from all sides.
While Shirka quickly put on her fur clothes, Suho immediately opened her inventory and changed items.
Coincidentally, there were two 'bows' in his inventory prepared for the glacier dungeon.
One was Daegung, bought with Lio Xing's corporate card.
And the second bow was a pretty amazing item that Lim Tae-gyu, the head of the Reaper Guild, lent me.
[Grim Reaper's Bow (Imitation)]
Difficulty to obtain: A
Type: Bow
Attack Power +90
This is an industrial product modeled after the 'Grim Reaper's Bow (S)', the symbol of the Grim Reaper Guild.
Although the attack power is not outstanding compared to the grade, the cohesion of magic arrows is very good, so the archer's skill effect is amplified by 3 times.
...Of course, this item was an item that Suho didn't really need.
In the first place, Suho did not condense mana to create magic arrows like normal archer hunters, but just made shadow soldiers into arrows and fired them.
However, if something might happen in the dungeon and it was lent for free, shouldn't we accept it unconditionally?
'As expected, I'm glad I accepted it.'
Suho took the great bow Lio Xing had bought him and handed the other one, the 'Grim reaper's bow (imitation)', to Sirka.
"Now, I'll lend you this too, so from now on you fight too."
"...!"
Then, Sirka's expression was several times more shocked than when she received the fur coat.
"What what? You're giving me such a good bow?!"
"No, I'm lending it. Not even mine."
"Thank you so much! I will work really hard!"
I knew right away what he meant by hard work.
After receiving the bow of the imitation god of death politely with both hands, Shirka's momentum immediately changed.
If Ver's harsh command drives beast-type beasts mad, a good bow drives archers mad.
Shuwaaaaaa-!
In an instant, a great concentration of magical power raged from Sirka's bow, and six arrows of magical power were immediately created.
"Is this happening?!"
Sirka, who could only create two magic arrows at the same time, was deeply moved.
And when I let go of the bowstring, the six magic arrows flew at tremendous speed and intercepted the arrows of the enemies flying this way in the middle.
Damn it!
The arrows that collided with each other in the air became ice powder and flew away.
"Just trust me and follow me! I'll keep guiding you to a place where you can find Cha-Cha!"
Shirka became bold again and stood at the forefront of Suho.
But then.
"Move."
Shirka's pupils widened as she hurriedly looked back with a chilling feeling.
There...
kuwaaaaaa!
There was a figure of Suho carrying a black arrow of great momentum in the great bow.
"Stir as much as you like, Quay."
Kwa-O-O-!
At that moment, a black bolt of lightning flew through the white snowstorm.
"oh my god."
Shirka was shocked.
The black arrows fired by Suho were literally thunderbolts, and they pierced the bodies of enemies, freely changing directions in zigzags instead of straight lines, as if they had eyes.
Kwajangchangchang!
The ice elves hit by the lightning began to shatter in a chain like an ice statue breaking.
At that moment, it was visible in Shirka's eyes.
The spirits of the Echo Forest that dissipate like smoke from the broken and crumbling bodies of the Ice Elves.
And as if they had waited for this moment, new spirits approaching to reclaim that empty body.
However, Suho felt the presence of those spirits as well.
"I can't take it away."
The ice golems he had encountered so far were nothing more than blocks of ice without a body.
However, these guys were still 'corpses' with even a little bit of flesh left.
There was still a chance until the corpse was taken back by the spirits.
[This is a target that can extract a shadow.]
[This is a target that can extract a shadow.]
[This is a target that can extract a shadow.]
....
A smirk.
Suho quickly sent a few shadow kobolds back to nothing and created an empty slot.
And before the spirits take away those precious corpses.
"Wake up."
It was intercepted from this side first.
That moment.
Shuhua ah!
Black shadows began to rise from the shattered corpses like pieces of ice.
[Shadow extraction succeeded.]
[Shadow extraction succeeded.]
[Shadow extraction succeeded.]
