Chapter 580 - Another Crisis 2 (1/2)

Emperor of Steel Kangchan 35780K 2022-07-24

Luke, who was blocking all the insane attacks of Arsene’s dark magic, felt that the number of people in the city were disappearing rapidly.

Or, maybe the surviving soldiers in the city realized that evacuating the city was a priority.

Their strength was too insignificant when compared to Luke or Arsene, but them, risking their own lives for the residents of the city was a huge act of bravery.

‘I am thankful to them.’

Luke, who felt thankful to the soldiers, turned his attention to Arsene, who was ready to use another dark magic attack.

‘Should I fight back now?’

Luke was unable to use any aggressive attacks as he was busy blocking the attacks of Arsene from reaching the city.

But that wasn’t the only reason for the delay in attacks.

He had a hidden card, and he needed the right opportunity to use it.

No matter how strong the enemy attack was, what Luke possessed was a single time counter-attack.

‘Something is wrong. That guy Luke, who is he getting pushed back so easily?’

As Luke continued to act defensive, Arsene felt troubled.

Even if it was due to the safety of the people in the city, it didn’t make any sense that Luke didn’t use one single attack and continued to defend.

‘Is he looking for a gap…?’

It was a time when Arsene’s attack faltered because of his extreme thoughts.

Kwang!

Luke suddenly used Blink and struck a mighty blow.

The gold aura which spread from the sword cut the wing of Gorgos in half.

“Haha. You were quick, Arsene!”

“Kuk, you. Worthless. Bastard!”

Arsene, who got his wing cut off on one side grunted his teeth.

‘Right, there is no need to think. The moment I think I end up giving him a gap!’

Therefore, he needed to be killed at once.

Arsene, who was determined to get rid of Luke, immediately pursued Luke to launch an attack.

Pung!

Wheeeing!

Gorgos’s fists, which were strong, seemed to even turn steel into powder, during that time, flame as hot as magma began to flow.

The armor on Avenger began to turn tattered and seemed like it would melt any moment.

No, they would have melted if it hadn’t been for the cooling magic used by Luke.

In spite of the situation, Luke had a smile on his face rather than panic.

It was because he had reached the place where he would be able to use the hidden card on Arsene.

“Now, Hwang Bo-sung!”

“Order!”

Along with the words of the Song Empire, a huge wooden puppet stood tall on the remains of the broken buildings.

A Zen skill weapon of the Southern Continent, which could be compared to the Gigant.

It was Puppet.

Arsene’s eyes, which were looking at the Puppet in front of him were shocked.

‘Th-that is…!’

“Be punished under the name of God!”

Even before Arsene could take up a defensive position, Hwang Bo-sung’s puppet, threw in a Trinity Punch at Gorgos’s body.

Urrrng! Urrrrrng!

The Trinity punch rained on Gorgos’s body with the sound of thunder.

Pung! Pung! Pung! Pung!

When the fist made of Iron Core hit the body of Gorgos which was stronger than steel, impacts soon erupted on it.

‘Kuk, this!’

Gorgos was getting beaten up in a speed of light.

Eventually, he was unable to defend and cracks began to form on Gorgos’s body.

In addition to the unexpected damage which Arsene took, Hwang Bo-sung, who attacked was also surprised.

‘Huh! such neat repair, no! it has been strengthened!’

Hwang Bo-sung’s Puppet had been destroyed in the battle with Hiros a few months back.

However, it had been repaired during the time when he and Luke went to the Holy Empire.

The person who repaired the Puppet, was Zegal Soha, the Court Tactician.

She incorporated the magic engineering of the Rhodesia Continent which she learned during the production of Avenger and used it on Hwang Bo-sung’s Puppet.

Therefore, the attack power of the Puppet had been doubled.

Surely, it wasn’t a fatal blow to Arsene.

The damage was something he could recover with his dark magic.

The problem was that Hwang Bo-sung wasn’t the one only dealing with the opponent.

The main enemy of Arsene was Luke.

What Hwang Bo-sung did was to create a strong attack that would provide the right gap for Luke.
