Chapter 124 - Hidden Chapter of the Korean Server (6) (1/2)
The Crusader Team members were guarding Yanghwa Bridge in preparation for the incoming attack by a large number of trolls.
They thought that the only way for them to effectively stop those tremendous monsters was to deal with them on a narrow road, so they were determined to confront them to the end even at the risk of their lives.
“Oh, they’re coming!”
But when they looked at the strangers, there were only two crossing Yanghwa Bridge. They were the Necromancer wearing a dark green robe and the Death Knight with glaring green eyes.
Junghoon and the Crusaders greeted them at the end of the bridge.
“I’m glad you arrived not too late.”
“Thank you.”
At this moment, Junghoon felt that he could not buy off this man who could smash a large army of monsters alone with only one million gold.
He thought to himself, ‘Man, I decided to strengthen myself while the Necromancer was defending Youngdungpo, but the Necromancer appeared as a much stronger being.’
But he tried to look as calm as possible and shook hands with Sungwoo.
“This is only the beginning of our fight. We’re going to see the Red Orcs attacking from the west quite soon.”
“I know.”
Junghoon didn’t want to be humiliated by Sungwoo in the next battle. Since the entire Korean server was watching him closely, he would lose his face completely if he fell behind Sungwoo once again.
‘I am already far behind him. I’ve got to fight successfully in the next battle to prove my presence.’
With strong determination to beat Sungwoo, he was now burning with a desire to fight the Red Orcs.

The brilliance fighting of the Necromancer was splashed across the entire Korean server through the community bulletin. The implications of his fantastic fighting brought about unusual consequences.
The ‘Youido Raid’ led by Sungwoo that took place recently was close to an ‘event’ that the players from all over the country watched from afar.
No matter what happened to the participants of the raid, there was no visible damage to those watching their activities through the live broadcast.
“Sungwoo, we’re getting so many calls from here and there, telling us they want to join our alliance.”
[481] Necromancer is our only hope, no matter how hard we think about it.

<I thought the Necromancer was just awesome during the Youido raid, but I was convinced after watching his performance on Sunyu Island that he will emerge as the centerpiece of reconstruction in Korea. It is certain that we have to unite around him. I cheer for him. I want to be of help to him.>

<In the end, someone has to take the lead with overwhelming power. I know a lot of people are trying hard now. There are also the Liberation Guild in Seoul and the Gallery Guild in Busan. However, they don’t seem to have a strong leader like the Necromancer. I hope he will do something. I’ll run right away to join his force and face the Red Orcs.>

As soon as such threads began to spread on the community bulletin, a group of survivors, who had been trying to find the way of survival independently, began to gather one by one.
They wanted to participate in the alliance for the upcoming battle with the Red Orcs. In fact, they already knew they could not survive if they didn’t join now.
And they witnessed so many events through the community bulletin, so they knew well what choices they had to make in a moment of crisis.
Their conclusion was they needed to join hands with the Necromancer for survival.
That’s why they began to gather around the allied forces led by Sungwoo.
“I hear that the survivor group in Ilsan are coming to join us. They have a force of around 200. They’re larger than we think, but strange enough, they have been keeping a low profile until now.”
“Another survivor group in Namyangju also contacted us. They said they would take five buses to come here. Man, this is going to be a…”
So, the leadership of the Liberation Guild was confused. Obviously, they needed more troops for the battle with the Red Orcs. Besides, they could beef up their forces on the occasion of the upcoming fight.
But the problem was that what the survivors regarded as their pivotal was not the Crusader Commander of the Liberation Guild, but the Necromancer.
“What has the Commander told us to do?”
The Crusader Team member who brought the message asked Minhum.
“Well, we have to accept them. We have to take them on our side. We can’t send them back now.”
The war was coming soon, but their troops were infinitely small, compared with the Red Orcs.
“We’re going to have a commanders’ meeting soon. So, if they arrive, arrange them into groups. Let me come back and confirm it.”
