by fnovelpiaThe guardian knight whose bones were blown stumbled and lost his balance.
But that’s it.
Still, he did not collapse.
The face that only had a mouth looked at me and smiled viciously.
“Is this your first time seeing something like this?”
“No.”
The guy slaps Alex down.
I immediately shot him in the leg.
Pop!
My ankles fall off.
Thanks to you, he loses his balance and goes crazy.
Suddenly!
Thanks to this, the blade split Alex’s shoulder and cut off half of his arm and chest.
Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop!
The guy’s cheeks flinched furiously due to his formidable anti-personnel power.
The heavy crossbow, which was created for the purpose of hunting immortals, faithfully fulfilled its role.
“I saw something even worse.”
All the extra bullets were fired into the guardian knight’s body.
The guy turned ugly and ran away from me.
“Run anywhere!”
“Be careful of that guy’s sword! That’s amazing!”
Alex, whose body has been sharply cut, crawls away.
The heavy crossbow, which had used up all its bolts, was thrown at the rushing guardian knight.
I immediately drew my halberd.
Kwasik!
As the guy rushed in, the two-handed sword split the heavy crossbow in half.
‘···How on earth?!’
It’s not some kind of cutting machine!
The guy twists the corners of his mouth.
“···You’re throwing away my only hope of winning.”
“Two-handed swords are only used by pretentious idiots.”
As I approached him, he said he liked it and took a stance to attack me.
The ankle that was blown off has already grown new.
‘I said it was amazing.’
The prowess of the sword was unusual.
No matter how strong a window pole made of dry wood is, it is still wood in the end.
If you block it with a polearm, the spear will be cut off.
‘You have to look at the odds based on variables.’
He swung the halberd widely with one hand and threw the dagger.
He casually snatched my dagger and threw it back at me.
I also grabbed the dagger and threw it back.
In the end, I was unable to catch the dagger and dodged it.
‘How can that bastard hear and see?!’
My head has been blown off, but I am aware of the world.
All animals are most sensitive to attacks on their sense organs.
In particular, if the weapon is coated with poison, it should be aimed at the body furthest from the sense organs.
“Hahahaha!!!”
A violent smile appeared on the guy’s face.
‘There were people like this even among the bandits.’
Crazy guys who are so fascinated by their weapon skills that they consider fighting to be an extreme sport.
He is addicted to psychological warfare to the level of a psychopath, and he likes fighting, so he gets easily overly absorbed.
‘You shouldn’t fight with these guys.’
These types are usually first-class.
Lexi was like this before she met me.
I grabbed the end of the halberd and hit the guy’s head diagonally like I was swinging a bat.
Wow!
He crawls into my arms very naturally.
At the same time, he scraped down the pole like a planer and swept down the two-handed sword.
‘My fingers are all cut off!’
But that was what I was aiming for.
─Because I had no intention of fighting in the first place.
I let go of the halberd and kicked the guy.
puck!!!
A dull noise rings in my ears.
The guy was pushed back a few steps, but he had a wry smile on his face.
“A warrior throws away his weapon so easily!”
“Warrior?”
“I know! Those eyes! It’s a look that only the strong who have gone through dozens or hundreds of battles can have!”
The face with only the mouth remaining grins.
“I recognized it at first sight! I never thought I would see a strong person like you again in this peaceful era!”
“Ha, do you miss the war?”
“Yes! I miss the old days when my blood boiled! You too!”
“There is a word for such people.”
‘Alex already ran away.’
I pulled out all the beads I had stuffed in my tactical belt and threw them away without mercy.
“It’s called ‘toldak’!”
Booo!!!
‘It’s all poisoned!’
The other person may avoid my criticism.
What’s more, the opponent is a battle-mad maniac?
Avoid it at all costs.
However, as a result, inertia is focused on actions, and there are moments that cannot be avoided.
‘like now!’
Pabababak!
He rolled around to avoid my path, but three out of ten were hit.
It was a smart move, but it didn’t matter.
“I have never liked killing people even for a moment.”
“That guy uses poison?!”
He’s running at me.
I didn’t throw Bido in vain.
As I was throwing, I was gauging where the opponent would react the fastest.
What I found out was that the guy’s eyes belonged to ‘insects’.
A black crystal brooch on the top of the chest.
I just kept running away, waiting for the poison to spread through its body.
Soon the guy got tired and passed out.
“Ha-ha-! You fight like a rat!”
“Is there any fair fight? Everyone is deceived and deceived.”
I picked up the halberd that was thrown on the floor.
Although he is immortal, he is no longer my enemy.
“Leave this place and live in seclusion.”
“You can’t do that!”
He’s running at me.
I pulled out the tablecloth and threw it in his eyes.
Flap!
He simply hit the tablecloth, but I took the lead in going first.
I held the halberd briefly and dived into the guy.
When using a two-handed sword to keep a close opponent in check, you attack by holding the blade.
but.
‘Your sword is too sharp to hold the blade!’
This guy’s weapon is ‘magical’!
Nevertheless, he skillfully blocked my attack even with a long weapon called a two-handed sword.
─With the sword handle!
‘······Crazy guy!’
The level is different.
If the fight lasts long, I’m sure I’ll lose!
The same applies if you are kicked by a foot or pushed by a hand.
Paradoxically, I dug into the arms of an enemy who was retreating in order to survive.
Three numbers divided like that.
He’s already adapting.
When I saw that movement, I realized it instinctively.
‘The poison has antibodies!’
I didn’t expect this.
The current situation is no different from a special forces soldier stepping into the ring against a professional fighter.
─I will definitely lose!
‘We have to raise the odds!’
puck!
I pushed him away with my shoulder.
The two-handed sword cuts through me as if it knew it would.
I blocked his attack with a tattered pole that had been cut down by the gods.
Suddenly!
The pole split like tofu.
I knew that would happen, so I just pretended to hold on.
The sword was so sharp that it had no rebound.
I took advantage of that opportunity and slashed his deltoid ligament with the blade of my spear.
At the same time, his elbow hit my head.
‘are you okay!’
Don’t die!
Wow!
I collapsed with the sound of my bones collapsing.
I felt dizzy and lost my sense of balance.
I can’t see out of one eye and my vision is shaking.
My body loses strength.
‘But it definitely cut me!’
I rolled off the floor, stood up, and cut the deltoid ligament on the other side of the guy.
But the taste is different.
I soon realized the reason.
Why did my head break?
─That guy was fighting with his feet from the beginning.
The upper and lower body were opposite.
I wasn’t elbowed with my elbow, I was kicked with my kneecap!
“You got caught──!”
His upper and lower body, with opposite roles, is pressing my body!
Pududeudeudeuk───!!!
“Huh──?!”
“What are you?! How are you still alive when your head is broken?!”
─Hanging legs.
It is a technique that carries the risk of internal rupture if used by a martial arts athlete.
Moreover, it is immortal.
My ribs and sternum were all shattered, and my stool exploded against my will.
I feel my internal organs exploding in real time.
The vagus nerve was crushed and it became impossible to stand upright.
“How can I if I’m not immortal?!”
I hugged him and drove the halberd blade into his spine.
‘We have to cut the nerves in the spine!’
If you cut this path, there is no exception, even if you are immortal!
“There it is!!! It’s him!!!”
Sigh!
The one whose spine was broken also fell to the ground.
“Kuhuh?!”
The city guards looked at us with perplexed eyes.
A man who is still alive even though the head above his mouth has been blown off.
A man who was crushed to death by such a monster.
The Immortal who kidnapped the prince, and the monster before my eyes.
Good and evil were separated in an instant.
“Kill that monster!”
“Fire! Shoot!”
Plop! Bub bub bub!
The bolt gets stuck in the guy’s body without mercy.
But none of the injuries were fatal.
I broke the guy’s spine, but the guy’s body was the opposite in the first place.
The thing started to run away with both arms, grotesquely limp.
Like a demon from a horror movie.
“Chase him!”
“What does that person do?!”
“Wrong! I can’t save that!”
The guard who asked for my opinion looked me up and down, and then followed the guards who started running first.
It was natural because his head was broken and his body was crushed like a crushed tin can.
‘What is that…’
I never thought I’d be fighting with my feet until now.
The shattered sternum and ribs begin to heal.
When I look at my face reflected in the muddy water, I see that my head is caved in.
‘I was wondering why my elbows were so hard.’
I can’t believe it was a kneecap.
If I had known, I would have avoided it at all costs.
If it had been hit incorrectly or if it had been an ordinary person, it might have died instantly.
Boop!
The sunken head was restored in an instant.
The shattered internal organs are restored in an instant, and the crushed vagus nerve also returns to its original state.
Only then did my heart sink coldly.
Because I could feel the hot blood running down my pants.
‘He really looks like a dog.’
I carefully hid myself among the crowd.
And a few hours later.
A man showed up wearing only his underwear to report a robbery to the quarry security.
* * * * * *
Alex was treating a body that had become a beehive in the forest.
The hole is pretty much clogged, but the bleeding is so severe that I can’t move.
“Please eat at least some of this.”
Alex scooped up a handful of the medicine I gave him and stuffed it into his mouth.
This alone accelerated the recovery speed and the amputated limb began to recover.
“···What happened to that guy?”
“That guy has been fighting with his feet until now.”
“What?”
I have never seen an immortal like that before.
“I was beaten so hard that I had blood on my pants.”
“What do you mean by fighting with your feet?”
Even though they are the same immortal, they seem to not understand.
That was natural. Because most immortals imitate other life forms and create homologous organs.
For example, using your arms as wings.
However, it cannot create a commercial organization.
Creating a superior organ was only possible with the blessing of Ceres or someone who was as versed in anatomy as Julia.
To begin with, the sensitivity of the nerves in the hands and feet differs by more than twofold!
“The guy, the dick has a head and the head has a dick.”
“What?”
“The upper and lower body are opposite.”
It is a ‘real’ immortal, not some half-baby.
‘I never thought I’d miss the explosive crossbow.’
What makes even more sense is that it has antibodies to poison.
“It looks like he also has antibodies to the poison his uncle gave him.”
“···You’re crazy.”
“Yes. You must have ingested all kinds of poisons as if you were taking nutritional supplements. Moreover, he seems to be a warmonger.”
Alex’s face was frozen.
“It’s dangerous. We must retreat.”
“No. Now that I understand its characteristics, it’s worth fighting.”
“···Do not try to fit Immortal into the mold of Ajin. We are assassins, not warriors. You cannot attack Immortals by surprise.”
I’m also pretty good at all-out combat.
However, the problem was that his two-handed sword was too sharp.
But it doesn’t matter now.
“Then you should hit it right now.”
“No weapons.”
I took a peek at the shoes he had left behind.
“Are you going to fight that monster with the magic weapon it wields best?”
“No. What I mean is, he’s unarmed. There are a lot of useful things at your uncle’s branch, right?”
In addition to the heavy military crossbows and halberds I picked up, Blue Pearl was full of ingenious assassination weapons.
You can get weapons supplied there.
‘Even if you’re a professional fighter, you can’t beat a soldier with a rifle.’
“How do you plan on getting there in the first place? I can’t go to the branch without cutting off my tail.”
What is this person mistaken about?
“My uncle may be immortal, but I am not immortal.”
Moreover, that warmonger suspected my identity.
It always happens once. Twice was a coincidence. There is a saying that three times is intentional.
I already aroused suspicion twice with my eyes and my healing factor.
Also, Bok-soo must have been watching everything through his eyes.
There was no way they wouldn’t recognize Alex, who was their business partner.
I didn’t want to kill, but it seems the world doesn’t work the way I want.
“I’ll be back.”
I took a step towards the Blue Pearl.
