SSS-Class Ranker Return

Chapter 241

runaway (4)

The search and pursuit of Lokan continued for several days.

I found the place where the corrupt priests were and got rid of them, and I took the drop items. He also collected fragments of the Prophecy of Doom.

At first, it was just a word, but after it was repeated several times, sentences that were not words were left, and Lokan was able to combine them to form his structure.

“The power of the Fall will destroy the world. Resurrect the forgotten ○○ with the ancient spell Armageddon. is this”

It wasn’t perfect either, but it was enough to create a rough story. How much is Jjajangbap in the game, isn’t it an obvious cliché?

And one more thing. I was able to guess a certain place by combining the remaining words.

“This is the stronghold of the Corrupted Priests on the Elven side, so this is the Control Tower.”

Lokan, who found the base of those who instilled the power of corruption in the World Tree by slaughtering the fallen priests, looked a bit surprised.

They said it was dark under the lamp, so the “senior council” of the half elves must be their stronghold.

It is unknown whether all of the half-elf elders here were involved in the corruption of the World Tree, but it must have been a tiger’s den.

“Let’s go, Kai.”

But Lokan was relentless.

He was a Rokhan with several reputation and favorability-related titles, including the title of Half Elf’s Friend, but it was unreasonable to even open the door to the Senate. Then he has no choice but to sneak in.

Lokan, who became smaller with Kai, quickly entered inside.

The half-elves, who were engrossed in the World Tree, could never notice Rokhan’s intrusion.

“there.”

It was the first time in his entire life that the interior of the Elder Council was built with a huge tree that resembled a world tree.

But he had an upgraded Corruption Compass. After chasing one of those names, I was able to get directions without difficulty.

“Ike!”

Moreover, the dramatically reduced body was extremely useful for roaming the half-elf camp.

Since the building itself looks like it was made of intertwined tree trunks, there are subtle gaps.

Therefore, it was enough to find a gap and go straight without having to go round and round.

When he entered the interior of the Senate through the shortest distance and went deeper through the Corruption Compass, Lokan was able to face an unexpected situation.

“No.”

“What’s wrong, give it to me.”

“Please wait a little longer. Just a little bit more, just a little bit more. You can use this communicator to take down orcs and trolls. then… … .”

Two half-elf elders are arguing over something.

‘Arab show, look at these’

However, the content of the conversation was quite surprising.

“There is no need for such a thing in our cause. Manipulating the World Tree is not the desire for half-elves to rule the world after all.”

“no. I’m just trying to get rid of the risk in advance in order to achieve the perfect cause.”

They are manipulating the world tree with something.

Looking back, there were many cases of subtly heading towards the bases of orcs or trolls even while the World Tree was running wild at will.

Then he turned and attacked the tribes of the Golden Lion camp, but except for such a momentary uncontrollable phenomenon, he seemed to be able to control it to some extent. Maybe it was also acting.’You’re controlling with that.’

Lokan recognized the identity of the transmitter at a glance. Their conversation was very direct, but it was because the shape was familiar.

fruit of the fall.

The transmitter he was holding resembled the one hanging from a runaway World Tree.

‘But what is that guy’

Now that we’ve found our target, we’ll have to rush in and take it away, but the situation was subtle.

The man who is arguing with the person holding the communication flag should be considered an ally, but he doesn’t know how to wield the power of corruption.

“Wrong.”

Whoops!

After hesitating for a while, something unexpected happened.

The elder half-elf who rebuked the man who manipulated the communication machine swung his sword and stabbed him.

“Gagging… … . How… … West… … .”

Whoops, whoops, whoops.

It doesn’t end there.

Until the life force of the guy holding the communication device ran out, he stabbed his sword several times and unleashed the power of magic and corruption to hinder his recovery.

He died in one breath without giving him a chance to recover or escape.

“In the face of destruction, nothing is an exception. The same goes for half elves. After everything has returned to nothing, a new world will begin.”

Gleaming his maddened eyes, he picked up the transmitter.

“Runaway tank, accelerate!”

“… … !”

Just then, Lokan rushed in. He restored his body, which had been changed to the size of a millet, and strengthened the power of the dash. He took his body as it was.

“Bone Break!”

It doesn’t end there. Lokan immediately aimed at the man’s right arm, who had picked up the transmitter. He struck down with a powerful blow, as if it would break and cut through the bones.

“Ugh, corruption!”

Wow!

But it failed. Bone smashing with armor-piercing effects did not work.

The only reason was that his skin had changed.

depravity.

The ability to gain enormous power instead of being eroded by the power of corruption.

However, there was a downside that the power once activated could not be returned and the user would eventually be eaten by the power of corruption, but he willingly threw himself at it.

to buy some time. To achieve a cause that must be done, even at the risk of life.

“Damn it, Gwangsal!”

Bubbly bubbly!

But that doesn’t mean the attack doesn’t work. Nor has it completely escaped Lokan’s grasp.

Rokhan, who had crushed him, wielded the Battle Ax at random to erase the rising anxiety, and the blow that resonated inside caused him to vomit out dead blood.

“Human Factory, Master Berserker Lokan… … Was it?”

But she laughed. As if that was nothing, he showed his white teeth without letting go of the transmitter.

If you are an elder, it may be natural to know the great nobility of humans.

But Rokhan’s laughter was so unsettling.

“I don’t know, bastard!”

He added strength to the hand holding the battle ax, and poured out all of his remaining skills.

“Heh heh, it’s no use. Like your Berserk, I am immortal.”

“Yeah, then I can cut off the neck.”

Whoops!

It was no use. It was clear that the spraying of blood was going to hurt, but there was no cutting off the throat. It was as if an indestructible effect had been applied.

“It’s because it’s useless.”

Rokhan put another attack on the grinning face, but he couldn’t shut his mouth as he had expected.

“I don’t know how you found this place, but I’ll just say a word.”

“… … ”

“You have failed.”

Pussack!

At that moment, the transmitter he was holding was destroyed.

Could it be that only those with the power of corruption could be destroyed?

Because the object of anger is dead.

Whether the corruption itself was a power linked to the communication device or the fruit of the corruption, it was destroyed along with it.

What was the reason for crying out for ruin, even at the cost of his own life?

“I don’t know.”

In fact, he wasn’t very curious. It is not necessary to understand the ideology of the fanatics.

[Destroyed Corruption Correspondent][????]

Corrupted communication machine that lost its power after being destroyed. It is a communication device that transmits any will through the power of corruption and acts as a corruption charger that can be used semi-permanently by absorbing and holding the energy of death.

It is now destroyed and has lost its function.

Perhaps, something that was controlled using this communicator could no longer be controlled forever.

“I’m going crazy.”

No matter how much I looked at the remains of the communication machine, it was something connected to the World Tree.

Then, while I was wondering if there was really only way to defeat the World Tree, the half-elves who noticed the commotion arrived.

“What’s going on! You can come in.”

They didn’t go inside recklessly because of the strict order of the two of them, but they seemed to even think about forcibly pushing in if they knocked on the door to receive their duty as a guard.

“Avoid for now… … .”

Tsuzuyu.

Then, something strange happened. The corpses of the two dead half-elf elders melted away and disappeared.In the case of monsters, their bodies disappear after a certain period of time after they die to clean up fields and dungeons, but in the case of NPCs, they go through a slightly different route, regardless of that, they melted down and soaked into the ground.

What the hell happened? Lokan didn’t think long. Even if you are not sure, there will always be moments when you have to make a decision.

“bombing!”

Immediately, the floor was smashed.

The floor, which is the tree itself, was destroyed and the whole building shook, but I jumped into the open floor and looked for traces.

“This ”

And he discovered something he hadn’t thought of.

There was a secret space on the floor that I thought would be downstairs, and there was a corpse lying there.

“Ancient Emperor”

After using the Orb of Purification to get rid of it, the corpse that the stupid High Masters lost due to their carelessness was right here.

“I’ll turn.”

If only one of them knew that they had to deal with the fallen ancient emperor because there was not enough of the fallen world capital, the two of them were not confident in Lokan either.

‘Maybe it’s still okay.’

Perhaps that is why, he harbored a subtle hope. The reason the fallen emperor hasn’t woken up yet may be because the resurrection ceremony hasn’t ended.

Hahaha, since I was exposed to the Orb of Purification, which is the opposite of the power of corruption, the energy would still remain even if it was a corpse.

“Then it’s over again… … !”

woo woo woo.

And then, the aura from the bodies of the two elder half-elves who had disappeared permeated his body.

The weak energy of corruption that was lacking was blown in, and the defense mechanism of the ancient emperor was activated.

[The fallen ancient emperor senses enmity.]

“Damn, if you’re unlucky, you’ll break your nose even if you fall backwards!”

[The fallen ancient emperor awakes randomly.]

“There will be only ruin.”

‘It’s snowing.’

Lokan clicked his tongue at the sight of the ancient emperor who jumped up like a gangster. The eyes were completely gone.

When humans resurrected, they still had some reason, but now it was clear that their brains had been completely pickled by the power of corruption.

A strong fool who knows only destruction and ruin. That was his current state.

“Still, you can’t lose to someone who isn’t even a Grand Master.”

Rokhan was the first to strike at such a guy.

Perhaps because it was not yet completed, his level was still only a High Master.

Then he can’t get tired of himself.

“Summon clones, 5 gnome brothers, Kai!”

〻!

Before the duration of Maniac Rise was over, Rokhan drew out all of his power to see his end.

fast-paced.

Before the support of the fallen priests came, at least the ancient emperor had to be destroyed.
