Enforcer (5)

“How long are we going to do this crap? I didn’t become a knight to do something like this.”

In front of the wide tunnel entrance, 1st class knight Tonio said in a voice full of displeasure.

“Be careful with your words. It is the name of the lord.”

“It’s the master’s order, so it’s like this, but it wasn’t, I hit it a long time ago. Do you know your brother too? what kind of guys are inside what are you doing?”

“It’s up to you to write anything.”

“I know that your lord is aiming for victory through dukedom. Is it because of that reason? I don’t know. Is this something I have to do?”

“…we are tools. The tool is a no-brainer.”

First-class knight Lemmer, who had been listening to Tonio’s story, paused for a moment before speaking.

“Because I became a big brother, I am complaining like this. I think a hundred times a day that I really want to take all of their heads off.”

“…”

Lemmer didn’t respond and closed his eyes.

“Haa… well, what’s the point of saying something like this? It’s not possible against those monsters anyway, and we’re all accomplices. Brother, when we die, we will definitely go to hell.”

“…”

For a while, the ground disappeared, and Tonio, who was sighing, saw a whitish black fog-like figure in his field of vision.

“Brother, something over there…?”

puck.

‘Divine Punishment…’

Feeling excruciating pain in his abdomen and limbs, Tonio thought in his dark flickering consciousness.

In an instant, after destroying the two first-class knights’ darts, cutting the muscle veins in their limbs, and knocking them out with blood, Carol appeared in front of the shaft.

Demonic energy was flowing from the inside of the cave, where only dim lighting shone gloomily.

‘Blood scent.’

Feeling the faint smell of blood passing by the tip of his nose, a black mist began to spread widely around Carol’s body as she slightly widened her senses.

Soon, Carol, who was vaguely hiding her presence, entered the tunnel.

* * *

I went down endlessly into the tunnel reminiscent of the abyss.

The demonic energy, which had only leaked out a little at the beginning, soon gathered all over the abandoned mine and became dense enough to be typed like fog.

What had only been a faint smell of blood was now turning into an intense bloody smell that could not be concealed.

thud!

I jumped down the long vertical tunnel and landed lightly, and there was a wide cavity in front of me.

“Geu uh uh-”

zombie or ghoul.

Living corpses swayed and filled the space. It seems to be a kind of gatekeeper-like role.

There were quite a few of them, but in terms of strength, they were no better than the tentacle monster Tobias had summoned. Of course, if you use a wide area skill in such an underground area, the tunnel may collapse as it is, so the conditions were much more difficult this way.

There was no need to deal with it now.

Among Murim’s enchantments, there was a case where the caster was connected to a Jiangshi in spirit. There’s no need to alert those who control them.

I hid my presence, and since my current state is at a level that not even a decent expert can notice, I ignored the monsters below and climbed the wall to enter the interior.

Dudeuk!

I saw a demon guarding the entrance right nearby, grabbed it by the neck, broke it, and threw it at a group of zombies.

Judging by the fact that there were at least hundreds of people inside, it seemed clear that Count Waldeck was involved. It was a scale that could not be explained unless the Count himself was involved.

squeak.

Every time I passed through the tunnel, there were one or two demons or warlocks standing guard here and there. As I continued to kill each one as if I were assassinating them, three paths emerged.

I was going to deal with everything anyway, so I entered the first path.

The disgusting smell coming from that direction kept bothering me.

Numerous presences were detected at the end of the road, but most of them did not have a proper ‘human’ feeling.

“swimming….”

“Uhh…”

“Huh…”

A space so wide that it is hard to believe that it is inside a closed mine.

People with their eyes closed and saliva dripping from their mouths were trapped inside dozens of prisons that continued endlessly. That number alone is over a hundred.

People were left like animals among the filth.

No, not even animals would be imprisoned this way.

Treated as objects, not living creatures.

This was the identity of the disgusting smell that had been stimulating my senses from earlier.

At a certain distance in front of the solid iron bars, the demons were sitting on chairs and dozing off.

All of this scenery was captured at a glance, and sound was blocked by covering the entire space with a curtain.

Tumble.

Uncovering the hidden presence, I approached the nearest Mine.

“what? It’s not time for shift yet… aaah!”

Dududuk.

I grabbed the guy’s head and crushed his skull.

It was hard to bear the thought of dying from earlier.

Could it be that the number of people trapped now is over?

It can’t be.

At least hundreds of people must have already been sacrificed in this way.

It was the same in Moorim, but no matter how much I went through this kind of garbage, I couldn’t get used to it.

Like insects, there was no end to killing and killing.

I took a deep breath and quietly submerged the endlessly rising murderous intent inside me.

“Who are you!”

“How dare you say this place!”

The demons who had been sleeping for a long time jumped to their feet after hearing the death screams of the demons as their heads were crushed. I could see them slowly pulling their weapons and running away like a still image.

Wearing self-defense equipment on the outside and walking slowly.

“What… what!”

“Stop!”

One by one, ignoring the weapons wielded by demons.

He was killed with great care.

They desperately wielded their weapons, but they were blocked by self-defense and couldn’t reach my body, and instead only their own weapons were smashed.

“Ugh… freak… monster…!”

Of those who guarded this place, only one remained.

I slowly approached the guy who was sitting on the floor and urinating with his whole body shaking.

“What are you doing here?”

“City… This is where the test subjects are stored.”

“What experiment?”

“Oh… doing all kinds of… experiments. Lately… lately Purple Crystal…”

“Purple Crystal?”

I didn’t expect to hear that name here…

“Yes… yes. We are experimenting with improving this and that…”

“Was Count Waldeck directly involved?”

“That… that’s fine…”

There was no need to ask anyway. Hundreds of humans were used as test subjects in a well-developed territory, and Count Baldeck didn’t know?

Of course, you may not have known. Someone privately deployed two first-class knights without the count’s knowledge. There is also the possibility that someone may have provided a huge amount of money to build such an underground facility. In addition, there could have been ‘someone’ with the ability to deal with the informant who infiltrated the count’s mansion as well as this abandoned mine without anyone knowing.

Count Waldeck may be so incompetent that the Count himself is unaware of all of this. On the other hand, someone could have been competent enough to do all this without the Count’s knowledge.

The probability that there is such a person, and the possibility that Count Waldeck himself did this.

It was obvious where the weights were leaning.

Anyway, that’s what you’ll find out if you investigate.

“Is the Purple Crystal research over?”

“Currently… yes. They said they did other experiments in the past… I just joined recently…”

“Is it because of the Purple Crystal that people do that?”

“Yes… that’s right. If you take too much and your dependency gets worse… I’ll leave.”

“Right.”

“Sa… save…”

puck.

I heard everything I heard, so I smashed his head neatly.

“Uhh…”

No matter what happened around them, the people trapped inside the bars were staring straight ahead with their mouths open like zombies. There is no point in opening the prison now. I swallowed my saliva and headed to the next place.

* * *

Demons and black magic were mostly crazy. Excluding the early Awakening Mines, most of them are rationally insane. However, no matter how crazy they were, they were still human, and of course, they had to do essential activities to survive. A series of actions such as eating or resting.

The second place we arrived was such a place. The living space of the demons and black magicians who stay in the abandoned mine.

That’s why there were a lot of magicians and black magicians inside.

“Who’s the tallest guy here?”

I broke down the door from the front and went in and asked.

“What is this?”

One of the demons looked at me and tilted its head, so I blew the wind and dealt with it.

“what…?”

“This… such crazy!”

“What are the guards doing!”

When the top of the neck of one of the demons next to him was blown away by the wind, he finally came to his senses, taking up his weapon and chanting magic. Although the guys were busy moving.

This time, I had no intention of procrastinating. Hearing the noise and watching them pile up from inside.

I lightly pulled out the black lightning and swung it.

single sword.

Just one slash cut most of the demons and warlocks in half.

Beyond the space filled with blood and screams, I saw someone blocking my attack.

From noble mtl dot com

Judging from the fact that he was wearing layers of blue shields, he seemed to be a warlock.

“dare…!”

Because the wrathful guy is trying to prepare something.

Kwagwagwang!

I immediately moved the new model, covered my hand with strong air, smashed all the shields, and grabbed it by the scruff of my neck and lifted it up.

“Cuck!”

“All you need is a mouth.”

“Quaaa!

He forcibly beat the energy of the Heavenly Demon Sacred Spirit and burned the demonic spirit, shattering the blood vessels of the body step by step and meticulously to the extent that his life was not affected. Although the way wizards deal with unmanned and energy is somewhat different, the way they use blood is the same. Even if this person survives, he will be unable to even pretend magic for the rest of his life.

Because the guy who is suffering from the pain of being crushed alive screams endlessly and tries to stretch out while passing out.

After forcibly awakening the mind again by pointing out the blood flow, the limb muscle vein was cut and the horse blood was pointed out to completely block the movement.

“Ouch…”

He threw the blind man to the ground.

“Tell me all the experiments you did here.”

“Even if I want to talk… I can’t… I can’t…”

The man who had been groaning for a while opened his mouth with difficulty.

“Is there some kind of magic that can’t be uttered?”

“okay….”

“Tsk, it’s useless.”

“Monster… bastard…!”

“Is Count Waldeck involved?”

“…”

When I brought up the story of Count Waldeck, my pupils suddenly fluttered.

“I guess this is also part of the forbidden content. So, did Count Waldeck lead everything in this?”

The movement of the pupils became more intense than before.

“Right. understood. The one who put the ban on is different.”

“Oh, no…!”

puck!

This guy seems to be a bit above the line, so I didn’t kill him, I just stunned him. If an agent of the Secret Intelligence Service drags you away and interrogates you, something else might come out.

* * *

The last was the experimental building. Beyond the place where there are numerous instruments experimenting with purple crystals, we headed to the source of intense magic and thick bloody smell.

Inside the lab building, pure white human bones were piled up like heaps.

After going in a little more, it was like a pillar in a temple in a wide shaft. Dozens of people were pierced from top to bottom with iron skewers and stood on both sides of the road as if on display.

And at its end, a wide hollow at a dead end.

I don’t know how many substitutes he replaced, but blood was flowing from the huge tank and going down the groove to form a magic circle.

The center of a huge magic circle glowing softly in red.

I saw a man sitting calmly like a high priest.

“He is not worthy of coming here.”

As I approached, he opened his eyes and spoke in a subdued voice.

“I didn’t know that the demon was here.”

“Whoa… have you seen us?”

“of course. I killed him right away Are you the mastermind behind this?”

“no. Not interested in human affairs. I just gave up and got paid for it.”

As if he was just making his wish come true.

I see you talking in a grave manner.

The spirit that had subsided rose again.

As if nothing was wrong with the topic that created such a disaster.

To ‘that’, humans were such a being.

Not even cattle.

Seeing that, I felt that fact.

Even the deaths of hundreds of human beings must have meant nothing to them.

“Human… is that right? A dragon… no.”

The guy groaned and tilted his head.

Ignoring those words, I pulled out a black charge and fired a strong air.

bang!

A relatively light attack due to the risk of collapse.

“dare…!”

The guy’s calm face turned into a savage in an instant.

“Do not weigh the things that kill humans, pretending to be noble. That’s the only face that suits you guys.”

I knew it would be blocked anyway.

The power I felt from the demon named Hanno and that demon I saw in the past was on a different level.

Besides, I don’t know what kind of principle this magic circle was, but it was constantly generating demonic energy.

To the extent that demonic energy flows out of the abandoned mine.

“I won’t kill you gracefully. A mere human…!”

He growled and came towards me.

Looking at it, he calmly raised his spirits.

The higher the concentration of demonic energy, the stronger the energy of the Heavenly Demon Sacred Art.

For that demon, if the space full of demonic energy is the best battlefield.

It was the same for me too.

The energy of the red magic spirit and the black celestial spirit collided and harmonized with each other.

bang!

It kicked off the ground and ran towards me, extending its fists imbued with great energy.

Kugu Palace-

Huge air waves exploded in all directions from the point where the blows intersected.

The fist wrapped in demonic energy and the black lightning covered with pitch-black starlight collided with each other, shaking as if the cavity would collapse.

Even if the Heavenly Demon Singong was powerful, it was not easy to suppress the enormous energy of the one who had developed strength by eating at least dozens or even hundreds of humans in a short time.

I don’t know if this place is outside, but there was a high possibility that the space itself would collapse the moment you raised your energy excessively.

“You bastard…! What is your true identity!”

In an instant, so many workshops came and went that you couldn’t even see them.

The search is over. It was interesting to experience the martial arts of the demons for the first time, but that was it.

Nothing special.

Gradually adapting to his movements made it easier to respond.

A mighty attack twists and deflects the flow. A complex attack pierces the core and delivers a blow. Fast attacks with faster attacks.

“This is… nonsense…”

I slashed the guy’s body as if he was playing with the attacks that were pouring down on me, but he had a thick demonic energy all over his body like a self-defense weapon. Due to the restrictions inside the mine, it was difficult to inflict fatal injuries.

It’s not just strong enough.

Then there was only one thing to do.

As if dancing, he put the flow in his sword strikes and cut through the body, drawing a single sword in his image.

The demonic energy that filled this space was converted into the energy of the Heavenly Demon Sacred Art.

It was compressed, compressed, compressed again endlessly.

A group of black flowing stars covered the black lightning.

Depending on the will, the light rapidly flickered and grew darker.

“Keuuugh-!”

The guy who was bleeding all over his body spewed out a painful rage.

Feeling the black thunder sway like an abyss.

Lightly ignoring his attack, he dug in and embroidered his swordplay.

“aaa!!!”

With each flash of ink light, each of its limbs fell from its torso.

“This… this is nonsense! How could a human…!”

The man whose limbs had been cut off, he cut the body in two, starting with the head.

“How did you come this far… this can’t be…”

“noisy.”

Lastly, there was a place where the energy was concentrated near the guy’s heart, so I cut it horizontally once more and completely shattered it.

As if he couldn’t believe it until the end, he opened his eyes wide, left the man who had stopped breathing, and turned around.

* * *

After checking once again to see if there were any surviving warlocks and demons inside, I went out after dealing with the zombies at the entrance.

“There are over a hundred humans trapped inside. Rescue and repair. There is an area where demonic energy is densely concentrated, so be careful, and those with weak spirits should be prepared to go. It’s like hell inside.”

And the Secret Intelligence Service agents waiting in advance were left to take care of the aftermath.

“All right. Don’t worry about this one. You worked hard, Executioner Carol.”

The mineshaft is over.

Next came the turn of Count Waldeck.

Even if he was an executor from the Heretic Questioner, his opponent was Imperial Baek Baldeck.

It wouldn’t have been over already.

After entrusting the handling to the agents, he left right away and now, despite the fact that the distance from the abandoned mine was wide, the strong smell of blood pierced the tip of his nose.

I thought I was used to that sort of thing. Seeing that the smell of blood lingered inside me every time I exhaled, it seemed that this time it would not go away easily.
