Chapter 362 - Dark Clouds over Song Empire 3 (1/2)
Luke was heading to the main road Hwang Bo-sung guided him to.
Although it was a rare area, they had to walk past many bushes to reach the main road. However, it was all thanks to Hwang Bo-sung, who was cutting down the branches and making the path walkable for Luke.
On their way to the town, the two of them noticed weird energy ahead of them.
“No, this?”
“Someone is being attacked by those using Magi.”
When the magi victims were detected, Hwang Bo-sung rushed ahead and ran toward the area.
When Hwang Bo-sung suddenly disappeared, Luke used his fly magic and went behind him.
Within a while, he was able to see the tragedy that took place.
Those who were dead or injured were engulfed in dark magic and scattered around the carriage.
There were a few survivors. Two knights and a wizard were rushing toward them.
Luke was amazed at the identity of the two rather than the devastation itself.
It was because the two were related to dark magic, Death Knight and Lich.
Helping out Hwang Bo-sung who got himself involved in the situation, he mumbled with a frown, “Why are these things here?”
However, no one answered his question.
The Death Knight and Lich, who suddenly noticed that someone strong had made an appearance, attacked in the direction where the strong presence they felt was coming from, leaving behind Hwang Bo-sung and Zegal Hui.
“Master, be careful!”
“You don’t need to worry about me.”
The Death Knight and Lich, no matter how powerful they were, they couldn’t be compared to Luke, who lived his life as Saymon.
While Hwang Bo-sung was going against one Death Knight, Luke used Black Bind on the Death Knight who ran at him.
Hwwrrrk!
Things like climbers moved up from the ground and sprang around the Death Knight’s body.
Meanwhile, Luke, who was in the air, was hit with heat magic.
Kwang!
“You think you can take me down with this much?”
Kikiki
The Lich began to develop more powerful magic as if he understood Luke’s sarcasm.
Thanks to the sudden saviors, Zegal Hui was just watching the situation unfold.
Hwang Bo-sung, who was using his fist, was in a close fight with the Death Knight, and Luke, who captured the Death Knight, was also playing around with the Lich.
‘I don’t know where they came from, but maybe they can defeat those monsters.’
But he couldn’t be completely relieved.
There was no guarantee when those masked men and other monsters would begin to appear.
‘That is why I need to take the Crown Prince to a safe place.’
Zegal Hui, who made that quick judgment, pulled on Jo Won-rak’s sleeve who was still on the ground.
“Prince, you need to get out of here!”
“But…”
“This is a great opportunity for us to escape. Don’t hesitate!”
The most important thing for Zegal Hui was the safety of Jo Won-rak.
That was why he needed to leave the monsters to the men whom he didn’t even know if they could truly beat those monsters.
“The Song Empire is in your hands… Kuak!”
“General Zegal!”
Zegal Hui, who tried to flee with Jo Won-rak, collapsed after a few steps.
The Magi was eating his body, and it began to take over his senses and his marrow.
While Jo Won-rak and Zegal Hui were in such a turmoil, Luke was pushing the Lich.
As a warlock, he was aware of a Lich’s attacks and weaknesses.
In the days of Saymon, the black magic book had knowledge about these in it.
‘Although the magic is strong, the movement is less flexible. Then…?’
And since it was a Lich, which means it was already dead, it lacked reasoning, and an object which moved without reasoning only advanced on the orders given to it.
