Only I Am a Necromancer - Chapter 496
At that moment, a pure white brilliance emanated from her body, pushing away the darkness of the black sky little by little. Then hundreds of thin rays of light spread out from behind her back in all directions. It was as if an angel spread hundreds of wings.
Hung- Hung- Hung- Hung-
Then each end of the ray of light swelled like a fruit, and it took the shape of a human in an instant. Exactly, it looked like a warrior. It was Einherier. A whopping 199 Einherjars appeared in the sky over Suwon.
It was as if a heavenly army descended there.
“What the heck!”
The 213th Squadron, which previously defeated Adrian and the Originals members, was called the third strongest unit in the World Tree camp.
If so, which was the second strongest unit?
“Wipe out everything!”
It was none other than Valkyrie or Jisu’s forces. They were a battle group of dead warriors composed of One Valkyrie and 199 Einherjars.
Now they were moving.
Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-
Rotating counterclockwise around Valkyrie, they flew in. It looked as if a giant light saw blade began to spin.
Ka-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga!
The saw blade-like charge hit the roof where Adrian and the members of the Originals organization were standing, then crushed the entire upper part of the building in an instant.
Concrete debris poured everywhere like rain.
“I’m sorry, but we don’t have time to rest yet. We have to move again.”
The warriors of light charged at the boss monsters advancing towards Asadal’s rampart without fear.
***
Somebody was watching the spectacular scenes of as many as two hundred rays of light shooting towards the boss monsters and the Valkyrie troops advancing.
“…”
It was Z, the large man wearing thick scale armor and a purple iron mask.
Clank- Clank-
He stood tall like a warrior on the roof of a building and slowly moved his head to follow the advance of the Valkyrie troops. In the meantime, she was doing something with both hands in a relaxed manner.
Clank- Clank-
It was the sound of regular clanking, namely, loading the revolver.
Clank- Clank-
It had the ugly look of a large-caliber revolver using Magnum bullets, releasing eerie black waves from the barrel whenever a bullet was loaded into the cylinder.
Sheeeeeeeeee-
When he loaded a total of 8 rounds, she rotated the cylinder and inserted it into the holster of her waist.
Then, he quickly pulled it out and slowly aimed at the Valkyrie troops flying in the distance.
“…”
When he placed the index finger on the trigger of the revolver and pressed it, its chamber slowly retracted, turning the cylinder little by little.
But it stopped there.
He took back its muzzle and swung it over his head, spinning it once before putting it back into the holster. Then he lightly lifted the large iron case that he had laid down on the floor.
His figure disappeared from the roof in an instant.
***
The engine of the Messenger was turned off due to a sudden system error.
As a result, the Messenger lost its power and descended slowly, then gently landed on the sea.
“…”
The Messenger swayed softly along with the gentle waves.
“…”
The entire crew looked at the King of the Great Mountains, Sangoon, silently. They didn’t know exactly what was going on right now, but at least they sensed that Sangoon was showing an anomalous reaction.
Sungwoo was also looking at him.
“What happened?”
Soon he turned his head and looked at Sungwoo. His eyes gleamed blue unlike before. It seemed as if another soul entered his body.
‘Yeah, he’s become a different creature.’
At that moment, he smiled gently. What did it mean?
Sungwoo didn’t show any reaction. But he suddenly became nervous, wondering who was making such a smile.
‘The King of the Great Mountains said he was just like a god.’
Of course, it could be the king’s observation, but Sungwoo believed his judgment to some extent.
‘He is a rational being.’
Although he was a spirit that was reformed and reconstructed by the system, he was not the type who got easily carried away with his feelings in making judgments.
If he felt he was like a ‘god’ over and over again, there must be a reason for that.
‘What does he mean by God?’
If there was a system that transcended the system, and if the system existed somewhere, what was it?
Sungwoo felt a new sense of awe for this being that was incarnated through Sangoon’s body.
Soon that being opened his mouth.
“What?”
But no voice was heard. He opened his mouth and said something, but no one including Sungwoo heard it.
At that moment some letters appeared before Sungwoo’s eyes.
– %@&@$oh &!&small=$dong
– A wormhole will open soon.
That’s what that being said.
Wormhole?
Sungwoo suddenly felt as if he was suffocated by that word. Was it a warning that there would be another invasion on Zero Earth?
In fact, even Sungwoo knew that the wormhole was being restored. So he dispatched researchers at the GMs’ facility, an artificial island floating in the waters of the Bermuda Triangle, to monitor the wormhole at all times. Actually, he was learning their technology by threatening the captured GMs.
About four months ago Sungwoo received a briefing from his deputy that the wormhole was being restored. He did not know whether it was a natural recovery or somebody was restoring it, but it was certain that the passage was being opened.
‘I heard it would take them a long time to restore it.’
Considering the speed, it would take 36 years to completely restore it.
“I know about the wormhole restoration, but I hear it’s going to take a lot of time…”
But that being opened his mouth again.
– No, you are wrong. It will open sooner. You should have gotten there by then. There are only 12 hours 11 minutes 31 seconds left.
That was it.
“…”
That being closed his eyes quietly, then lowered his head. A certain being was now gone from Sangoon’s body.
– System under emergency recovery (59%)
And everything started to normalize.
Shortly afterward, Sangoon opened his eyes.
“Oh my God…”
Sangoon slowly raised his head and looked at Sungwoo.
Then he moved his pale blue lips and said, “Did you see that?”
He spoke as if Sungwoo might have noticed that being, who he should have never seen.
But Sungwoo asked the same question he had asked Sangoon many times before in a more sincere manner than usual.
“What the hell is that being?”
“I may sound crazy, but that’s…”
Sangoon shook his head in denial of his thoughts.
“He must be God.”
His judgment remained unchanged.
“God?”
But Sangoon couldn’t really explain why he was a god. But he said there was no better expression than the word God to describe that being.
In other words, he could not explain it properly, but in his judgment, that being was a god.
But Sungwoo couldn’t understand his explanation. But he had one wish.
“Well, if he is really a god, I hope he is an apathetic god.”
Nobody was supposed to ask God for justice and good because it was arrogant to think that a transcendent being had the same justice and goodness as humans had.
‘God’s best can be our worst.’
In Sungwoo’s opinion, the best option would be for that being to be indifferent and leave them alone.
‘Well, let me take action as best I can.’
Sungwoo turned his head and looked at his chief secretary.
“Chief Secretary, we’re all ready. Prepare to depart.”
The chief secretary got up from his seat.
“Okay. By the way, where should we go? Are you going straight to the wormhole lab?”
Actually, he asked it just in case because he also saw the message from that being called God that since the wormhole would open soon, Sungwoo should be there.
The opening of the wormhole was as serious a problem as the terrorism on Asadal.
“No, I’m going to Asadal,” Sungwoo replied..
