Chapter 978
Just like how some pets such as elementals didn’t have the concept of growth, Iyarugt didn’t have the growth concept of ‘level . ’ This didn’t mean he was restricted or had limitations though . Rather, it meant that Iyarugt could grow through the process of restoring himself .
[* By winning in a battle against the strong, he can regain a feeling of life . The more he wins, the more he will regain your skills . (5/10)]
This was stated in Iyarugt’s status window . Every time he raided a named boss monster, he could break his limits and restore his strength . The power of Iyarugt’s current Sublime Sword was four times more powerful than Peak Sword’s Annihilate and was comparable to Linked Kill Wave Pinnacle .
“Kuek . . . !” Apollo blocked the sword with a shield and couldn’t help groaning from the shock . His left arm that was holding the shield spun through the air .
“Captain!” The knights’ horrified cries rang out . A demonkin had suddenly appeared, and one of the knights’ captain’s arms was cut off . Apollo used the first aid skill Hit a Pressure Point available for a fourth advancement knight and asked in a resentful voice, “I don’t understand . . . The evil eyes are a species banished from hell . Why are you helping the demonkin?”
However, Iyarugt wasn’t a conversationalist . He was only interested in pursuing fighting skills . Iyraugt had no interest in other people’s positions, nor was he kind enough to explain his reasons .
“What a load of shit . ”
“ . . . ”
The moment the atmosphere became tense from Iyarugt’s attitude, a voice rang out .
“Shouldn’t you look at your own actions before blaming others?” It was Peak Sword who shouted from behind Iyarugt . “You are the invaders! Do you deserve to blame other people when you have invaded this territory, harmed the people and took away their peace? You are barbarians!”
“ . . . I omitted the introductions, so there was a misunderstanding . We are the Blue Flame Knights of the Gauss royal family . This is our territory, and we have the right and duty to defend ourselves . It is the evil eyes who are the invaders, not us . ”
“G-Gauss Kingdom? Keuk! Still, the evil eyes haven’t hurt your people!”
“How do you know? Can you guarantee that they haven’t harmed anyone? They are demonkin . They must be ferocious to have been banished from hell . ”
“Uh . . . !”
“No . . . Before discussing race, it is a matter of basic national security . . . Think about it from our perspective . If you find out that a certain armed group is living underneath your Overgeared Kingdom . . . would you be able to overlook it?”
“ . . . !” Peak Sword became more and more dumbfounded . It was because he couldn’t refute any of Apollo’s reasonable words . As an easy example, imagine if the Chinese army were living underneath South Korean territory . It was something that could never be tolerated for Koreans .
“I-I see . . . I fully understand your position . Technically, you guys are the victims . . . ” Peak Sword admitted it honestly . However—
“Ah, I don’t know! In any case, the Gauss Kingdom is our enemy! I’ll get rid of everyone here!”
It was enough to ignore the unfavorable truth . Peak Sword refused any further conversation . He pulled out a dark sword—a long sword that Grid had made out of Belial’s Horn . Just based on the performance alone, it was a weapon that was slightly more powerful than Iyarugt .
“Let’s go, Iyarugt! Exterminate them!”
The new Iyarugt was launched like a flash of light while Peak Sword stood in place and bent over .
“Hell Moon Cut . ”
Simultaneously, Iyarugt had cut through the lead knights and was surrounded by the enemies .
“Annihilate . ”
Peak Sword’s weapon swept through the enemies around Iyarugt . It was a ridiculously aggressive offensive . Apollo realized the opponents weren’t willing to talk and raised a blue sword energy from the tip of his sword . It was a flame-like sword .
“My fire will protect my country!”
It was a powerful wave of energy! Peak Sword was pushed back during the gap created by using Draw Sword, and Vantner ran to his side to set up a shield . After that, Apollo’s sword energy struck Vantner’s shield . Vantner murmured to himself, ‘It is a whole different level . . . !’
As expected, a fourth advancement opponent was too much at this point in time .
A third advancement class could overwhelm a second advancement class . Then what about a fourth advancement?
It was difficult to deal with Apollo’s damage, despite his stats falling significantly because of his severed arm .
While suffering an internal injury and coughing up blood, Peak Sword shouted, “Hey! Iyarugt! Get rid of that guy quickly!”
“You aren’t my master so you should shut up . ”
The ferocious Iyarugt moved close to Apollo . He also knew that Peak Sword would be in danger if he didn’t get rid of Apollo .
The swordsmanship of a demonkin was different from that of human swordsmen .
The dazzling sword strikes that depended on the innate power and vitality of a demonkin suppressed Apollo fiercely .
Apollo was aware that Iyarugt exposed one or two gaps, but he didn’t take advantage of them .
They were a trap .
Apollo had a hunch that he could suffer more damage if he was lured in by these gaps . It would’ve been easy to fight back and defend if only he hadn’t lost his arm . The biggest problem was that he failed to gauge the power of the first attack .
“Good! Well done!”
“Push him, Iyarugt!”
Peak Sword and Vantner didn’t bother getting involved in the fight . It was because they weren’t in a perfect state and would just be a hindrance . Now there were less than 10 Blue Flame Knights left, and they vented their anger with an energetic shout . “These guys!”
While they were fighting for their lives, these two people were hiding behind the crazy demonkin and cheering .
“We’ll deal with you!” The blue flaming sword energy of the knights rose in unison . They had trained together for many years, and their cooperation was close to art .
“Aack!” Peak Sword screamed as two swords pierced his left side while he was busy blocking . Another two attacked from the right, and Peak Sword would be in danger of being killed if he didn’t handle it right . Peak Sword forgot about his pride and rolled his body . He thought about Grid as he barely managed to avoid the crisis .
It was hard to deal with four players at once . Then what about Grid who won against 400 players? It was really amazing . He was a truly great guy .
‘Cool! Too good!’ Peak Sword could only be described as crazy as he praised Grid while on the verge of dying, “God Grid is the beeeeest!”
‘He is sick again . ’ Vantner clicked his tongue while hiding behind a sword . His shield’s durability was low and was on the verge of being destroyed . “ . . . !?”
‘They are royal knights!’
The Blue Flame Knights were truly powerhouses . Their level of swordsmanship was so high that it was difficult to find a gap of opportunity, and their attack power was also high . Eventually, the four blue flaming swords shattered Vantner’s tattered shield .
“Eek! Hey! I’m dead!” Vantner cried out as he was stabbed in the stomach, but Peak Sword couldn’t afford to help him . Peak Sword was in the exact same situation was Vantner . He had already been stabbed in the stomach several times .
“Oh, shit! You are a tanker and should be protecting me! You should go before me!”
“ . . . ”
The two of them were part of the 10 meritorious retainers of the Overgeared Kingdom . The Overgeared soldiers watched the legends of the Overgeared Kingdom struggle . They had been expecting a fierce and wonderful fight, but the situation was a mess .
