The Blood Knight’s Villains

My Villains Episode 230

47. Nightmare (12)

Atalanta gains half her freedom through a distorted prophecy.

Paladins of the Church of Calandari, the Red Militia, and Princess Theodora.

Count Akele, the father of Phoenix, who led the fleet and pacified the coast.

Oduenne’s Grania Utequai’s sister-in-law, Kanzai Iofiya.

All of the series of stories were outside the main scenario of The Dark World. So it was difficult to predict how these events would affect the future.

Uh, what’s going on with all this….

The meeting with Atalanta, which lasted about an hour, made a mess in my head.

In my mind, I wanted to sit somewhere in a quiet place and organize my thoughts,

but “… I’m going to go crazy.”

that was impossible

This is the conclusion I came to after crossing the black aisle and scanning the surroundings.

The place we fell this time was outdoors.

Rough concrete floors, flickering streetlights, an old one-story building built with red bricks, and a steel pipe structure painted green stand out.

“It’s not serious this time either.”

Unusual desolation and the darkness that hung all over the place, they looked all around with hardened faces. Cole, too, pulled out an arrow with a very nervous expression and walked in the protest.

Heila, who had been lowering herself to land, slowly got up and pulled the bottom of her gloves tight. While doing so, I clench and open my fist, but somehow I feel a sense of composure in that action.

At some point, I learned a strange talent. The skill of reading the inside of an expressionless beauty.

This time, Haila looks very satisfied, probably because she landed and didn’t fall and didn’t get help from me.

“Another strange place.”

She looked at the barbed wire fence behind the building and the hills beyond that surrounded by darkness and bushes, then turned her head toward me.

“Do you know where this is?”

w……O uh w

—M三

Instead of answering, I silently scratched my eyebrows. It was because I was a little worried about whether I could answer ‘I’m the master of separating water behind the executive’s quarters’.

After hesitating for a moment, he let out a short sigh and opened his mouth.

“This is a very dangerous place.”

“What kind of place is it?”

“Hmm, a kind of defense base or should I say a garrison?”

Cole, who was peering into the shadows, asked a question.

“Which army is this?”

“Oh well. At first glance, it doesn’t look like a kingdom, does it?”

“Then maybe,”

Cole tried to say something, but kept his mouth shut.

“What is it?”

“…Since you say it’s a garrison, you’d better pay attention. Do you know where to go?”

“Well, for now.”

I looked back at the three roads around me and searched for memories.

The period when the company was dispatched to the ASP somewhere in Gangwon-do was only about 3 months. But fortunately, the memories that came back were quite clear.

Hmm, if you go up the stairs in front of you, it seems that there is an air defense camp.

To the right was a phone booth, and to the left of the foot volleyball field was an awning and the entrance to the barracks.

That my feet don’t fall off.

At a mansion in the suburbs, I met a nurse and a security guard, Chief Heo So-ha. They were all terrible monsters.

In the neighborhood where I lived, I met Hee-won’s father and husband, and I thought they would turn into monsters, so I disposed of them.

Even here, if a senior or an executive appears as a monster…

“O”

Just imagining it is terrifying.

No, it doesn’t matter if you don’t become a monster. You won’t be able to handle it if you run amok with a rifle or drive an armored vehicle.

After a short thought, I chose the right path.

The reason was simple. There’s an air defense platoon’s protection on the stairs ahead, and an armored personnel carrier from our company is on the awning on the left.

I think I might be able to hit the rifle with my body, but I can’t seem to deal with the armored vehicle.

“Before we move for a moment-” I urged the party not to act recklessly even if someone appeared.

In addition, since the surroundings were dark, I made Mungchi hide and follow me, and I told him not to reveal himself until I gave a signal.

Wearing a hooded short robe, Mungchi went straight up to the roof of the executive quarters.

Of course, speaking of the rooftop, the executive quarters is a single-story building. After a great jump, the guy simply disappeared by grabbing onto the railing and jumping over it.

“Would you like some blood?”

“……huh?”

“It’s blood. won’t you need it?”

Heila blinked a few times at my question, then nodded.

When blood oozes from her palms from the effect of the scaled handcuffs, she turns them into rings as she did before.

The only ring left was on the ring finger of her left hand because she had been consumed by various things, but soon the other four fingers were also filled with red rings.

There was still a little blood left, so Heila took out something like a jewel from the inside of her vest. Is it a ruby bead?

“What is that?”

“Your blood. It was retrieved from Kelsenne.”

“……what?”

Could it be that you are referring to the few drops of blood you fed the vampire, Kelsenne?

“You retrieved it?”

Yo O” Hee-

Haila poured fresh blood into the ruby or blood beads to enlarge them and put them back in her bosom. and ‘why? Got a problem?’ It was looking at me with those eyes.

Hmm, something is wrong… Looking at that proud face, I don’t have anything to say.

The asp was perched on a wooded hill.

It was very dark for the son-in-law because there was not much lighting and the surroundings were in the countryside where people were rare. In addition, the nearby ammunition depots all looked like huge burial mounds, so I felt chills running down my spine as I walked through the silence.

No matter how I feel, the party left the barracks area without incident, probably thanks to choosing the back road. There were no monsters, no humans at all.

Although it was a dirt road, I was walking down a well-polished cliff and suddenly looked around. The hills were winding through the barbed wire on both sides, but there was no corner to hide in.

“…it’s a bunch. Are you following me well?”

At my low voice, the group gave a sign. I quickly turned around and saw that it had emerged from about 30 meters away, then quickly melted back into the darkness.

…It’s like a real ghost. If someone I didn’t know saw it, I would have fainted.

Thinking so, the moment I tried to move my steps again.

A chuckle was heard from downhill.

“Phoenix-sama.”

“…stay away.” The process of hearing the presence was very strange. I’m sure I hadn’t heard anything until just a moment ago, but out of the blue came footsteps and whispering voices from the street corner below.

“Isn’t it funny that…

“you’re right. I don’t understand.”

“So, if you’re going to search for X feet, search here. Then I would have turned upside down and sucked some honey.”

“Wouldn’t that have been difficult?”

“Damn it. Why don’t I go to work this early in the morning?”

They were soldiers wearing military uniforms and carrying rifles. Facing the two soldiers in their early twenties with youthful faces, I swallowed a dry saliva.

“What is that, isn’t that Kim Seung-soo?”

“…Uh, that’s right.”

The soldier wearing a private rank insignia nodded in surprise and stepped forward.

“Hey what are you doing here? He says he’s not feeling well…

It’s a familiar face. My classmate, what was his name?

As he kept his mouth shut, the soldier, who looked around with his words slurred, made a surprised expression.

“Did you come out alone, you crazy bastard?”

He acted as if he couldn’t see Heila and Cole, and as if I didn’t see Phoenix, but Kim Seung-soo.

The same was true of the sergeant, who was walking up and down with the private in front.

“Look at this bastard’s swollen liver. Oh, I’m always the officer on duty, Captain Po. If you don’t want to be robbed, jump in quickly.”

The sergeant looked at my complexion and frowned. Then he stared at me, lowered his voice, and said,

“…Are you doing this on purpose?”

“Are you not answering? Are you going to chew on the senior?”

With her hand on Hrunting’s permal, she pondered for a moment. There’s still some distance to the guardhouse, so can I just swing my sword?

“one. Boso this torai. ”

“Hey Kim Seung-soo.”

As I remained silent, the sergeant drew his gun and continued talking with a cold face.

“What are you talking about with that mentality? You didn’t say anything even when you missed work while acting like shit. But why is this shit again?”

“Do you think we’re going to freak out because of this? If you look at it like this, only you will be fucked, you crazy bastard. What are you doing with perjury? You even made a false report.”

The one who came closer gave off a disgusting smell and continued to shoot.

“And honestly, that bastard really flirted with you. He yelled that he would go in like he was on duty every day and went on vacation.”

As the big grip grabbed his face and started squeezing it, he bit his tongue and rolled his eyes. Blood spurted out as the tips of the brawny fingers dug into the skin and

clattered!

A bloody blast erupted and the sergeant’s torso collapsed. The private, who was standing aside, stuttered, his face blue.

“Gi-gi Kim Seung-soo, you crazy bastard!”

It screamed and swelled up, but before the transformation was complete, a bundle protruding from the drainage ditch swung the cloud sword.

With a cheerful shriek, the private soldier stumbled as the blood gushed out of his mouth as his throat was split in half. Even so, he took a backward step and increased his size, and Cole’s arrow that was shot afterwards pierced the side of his nose.

“Sigh” I spurred the ground and pulled out Hrunting, and an arrow stuck in the face cut off the neck of the private soldier who had hit the butt.

“……Huh.”

Just like when Hee-won killed her father and husband, her heart was beating like it would explode and her fingertips were shaking. But at the same time, an overwhelming feeling poured out of my chest, as if my chest was exploding.

While I enjoyed the feeling of liberation, the head of a private in a bulletproof helmet rolled along my rim. The feeling of exhilaration that had

filled

my chest was quickly dissipated by the roaring sound. What replaced the pleasure was frustration for no reason.

“Phoenix. These guys”

“Later. You have to move first.”

I stopped Cole and looked back towards the barracks. At the ominous weight that weighed down my heart,

weeeeeeng!

Loud sirens pounding on the eardrums responded in response.

“Follow me!”

The party, who had been covering their ears, responded immediately to my shouting. Even if you didn’t hear the voice, you probably sensed that you had to run right now.

Jumping out into the lead, I tightened my grip on Hrunting and sharpened my senses. Fortunately, there was no one at the post at the point where the road splits into three after the descent.

By the time I passed the three-way intersection and saw the guardhouse in the distance. The sirens pounding on my eardrums stopped.

And as if they were touching each other with a baton, the unpleasant sound of metals engaging each other gradually drew closer. The harsh exhaust note was a bonus.

“Crazy really…?”

It was astonishing.

The noise of caterpillars and engines was coming from the front, not the rear. Of course, there was no way to know why the armored vehicles that should have been on the awning were here.

Rumble-

After hearing the rough noise, an armored car jumped out from the back of the guardhouse.

“Damn it down-!”

As soon as he threw his body behind the hills on either side of the road, dragging the party, dirt and grass sprang up with a sound like thunder.

The two machine guns mounted on the armored vehicle continuously fired 7.62mm and 12.7mm rounds, respectively.

I can assure you that none of the attacks I’ve experienced in Middle World have been as overwhelming as this one. Even my superhuman body would become a rag within 2 or 3 seconds the moment I stood in front of that fire net.

“That’s *heuuu* that’s what-”

Even among the mercenaries, Cole, who is on the more courageous side, was distraught at the heavy drinking of machine gun bullets. I crawled over and pressed down on his shaking shoulder.

“call! calm down! It will be over soon!”

“ OOO —–

The machine gun baptism was over while Cole shuddered at his teeth.

As I quickly raised my head and looked toward the armored vehicle, Moongchi and Haila, who had been crouching next to me, also got up.

“Eh?”

M | 99

Both women looked bewildered. It must be because he discovered that the unknown magic was poured out by a lump of metal, not a person.

“You have to aim for the person on the floor or in there!”

I continued to yell as I flung myself over the hill on the other side.

“Heyla, I’ll get your attention-”

Before he could finish, another thunderous sound reverberated through the night sky. Two more armored vehicles appeared from behind the guardhouse and started firing machine guns.

“Ah, two arms!”

I felt like I was going to pee right away, but I had to move. It was because the armored vehicles were approaching with continuous machine gun fire.

Scratching the ground, he got up and ran up the hill. Was it because he raised his arm on purpose? A barrage of machine guns followed me up the hill.

Fortunately, Heila did not seem to lose her cool even though she met an armored vehicle for the first time in her life and received machine gun fire. It was clear from the quick and accurate judgment of what he had to do.

“yes.”

She drew magic power from the ring on her thumb and at the same time scattered blood to spread a ‘bloody swamp’ on the floor with a red carpet.

Then the ring on my index finger melted. Thanks to this, the swamp of blood spread thin and wide enough to cover the well-paved dirt road between the hills.

The armored car that continued to fire machine guns up the hill trampled the bloody swamp. A force so strong that an ordinary person could not even lift their feet pulled the track and the rubber pad attached to it.

Goo Goo Goo.

Of course, the armored car was not something that could get stuck in sticky blood. That wasn’t what Heila was aiming for either.

“Whoa-”

Heila took a long exhalation and cupped her hand as she reached for the armored vehicle.

At that moment

Quaang!

Something rose from the bloody swamp and pierced the armored car from the bottom. It was a ‘red thorn’ as thick as a beautiful log.

“- Hoo-eup”

With an inhalation, the clenched fists tightened.

The red thorns, which were in full bloom like buds bursting, rotated vigorously.

Kwagwagwagak-

It was impossible to change an armored car, which is a solid piece of steel, but it was enough to stop its function.

After disabling one of the armored vehicles, Heyla stumbled for a moment.

But after a while, she regained her composure, raised magic power from the ring on her middle finger, and pierced the second armored vehicle with red thorns.

Goo Goo Goo.

Then the last armored car suddenly changed direction. The machine gun fire that was pouring down on me, who was messing around on the hillside, was also directed at Heila in an instant.

“O” =

Heila, who melted the ring on her possession, poured magic power into the glove of her right hand. Four of the five diamond patterns engraved on the back of the hand evaporated in an instant, giving off a silvery glow.

Ugh-

the ‘star shield’ spread out like that narrowly and thickly blocked her in front.

However, the star’s shield could not withstand the fire of the two machine guns for even a second and shattered.

“Heila-!”

When she screamed in astonishment, the wad was used like an arrow by the ox technique and attacked Heila.

The two women became one mass and disappeared behind the hill, and the last armored vehicle maneuvered towards the two women while continuing to fire.

The armored vehicles in front were blocking the road, but that ignorant piece of metal pushed them roughly and tried to climb the hill.

“No,”

I muttered involuntarily and threw myself down the hill.

Carrying a knife and charging toward an armored vehicle? It was pure madness.

My heart was shaking, so I couldn’t shout, and thanks to this, the armored car noticed my approach belatedly.

Goo Goo Goo.

As the armored car turned and turned the muzzle of its machine gun at me, I slid as if stealing base and rolled toward the ramp behind the armored car.

Unlike the frightened mind of Kim Seung-soo, Lee Phoenix’s body moved as swiftly as a cat and a beast. Thanks to that, I climbed to the top of the armored vehicle at once.

I only saw it now, but the commander’s seat with the machine gun seat and the co-pilot’s seat were empty. So is it a ghost pulling the trigger?

Machine guns without gunners fired bullets nonstop, but it was impossible to fire at the upper part of the armored vehicle because the middleman couldn’t shave his head. So I calmly adjusted my posture and corrected my hrunting.

“Huaap!”

He swung the brightly shining Hrunting with all his might while wrapped in bloody blades.

No matter how famous Hrunting was, it was extremely difficult to cut through the top of an armored vehicle with a knife. However, it was as simple as breaking the fixing iron on the foot hatch.

Caang Kang!

Wild sparks bounced one after another, and the fixing metal was violently broken and bounced outside. I opened the hatch and went straight into the crew room

.

Hrunting’s red glow illuminated the dark figure in the cockpit. It was a blurry shadow in the shape of a person.

There was no time to worry about the identity of that shadow. I used Death King’s scaled handcuffs to spray blood. The shadows dispersed and the armored car stopped.

“Huh huh-” After

taking a couple of rough breaths, he ran out of the armored vehicle.

“Heyla! Bunch!”

As I ran to the back of the hill, I saw a bundle of people supporting Cole and Heila as they stood up shaking their legs.

“Poi Heila go.”

“……uh?”

The dim light from the street lights made it possible to check Heyla’s condition.

The velvet vest and leather pants were all black. was hit by machine gun fire.

Goo Goo Goo.

In the meantime, I heard the sound of a caterpillar rolling from behind. It must have been the armored vehicles that were left on the awning.

“First, move!”

As if taking Heila from the bundle, I took it and ran to the guard post after holding it in my arms.

As expected, the iron gate of the guardhouse was stained black. I rushed and knocked on the door, and black smoke flew in all directions along with the gust of wind that I had become accustomed to.

The iron door opened with a squeaking sound, and the spreading black smoke gathered to form a two-in-one spirit.

It was a young man wearing a beret and a shiny rank insignia, and a middle-aged man in plain clothes.

“hmm? What are our multipliers here?”

Heila is in danger. There is no time to listen to nonsense.

“shut up-!”

Before the captain could finish his words, he blew the two men’s throats off with the Hrunting.

As if we had waited, a black disk appeared in front of the iron door, and we threw ourselves into the aisle, leaving behind the roar of the track.
