061. Legion vs Calamity Showdown (2)

The firepower demonstration and power of the enraged apostle was enough to draw out the astonishment of the rest of the party watching it.

“Oh my gosh… … .”

“Was the apostle like this?”

According to the owner’s intention, the ship made with authority began to emit intense beams of light at the [Demon King Castle], and it was clearly visible that a city in the demon realm was destroyed in an instant with one powerful shot.

“You are the things that should be gone.”

The former demon king and other high-ranking demons, who were watching from the sidelines, properly felt the goosebumps running through their bodies.

‘Also… … There was no way there would be a normal person under that manager.’

The apostle was drinking the potion very roughly to replenish the lack of divine power caused by the use of the main gun of the Mighty Ship.

Took-!

In the process of consuming the potion, the hat the apostle was wearing fell to the floor, and a bunch of hair that seemed to have been plucked by someone with a fistful of hands decorated the floor along with the hat.

The ruler of disaster was still unkind. Without any explanation, he blew himself away as if he were to follow me to the door leading to the Legion’s hometown.

Of course, as much as I was determined to kill him, I went straight through the oval-shaped door that was turning violently without delay.

“Arachne, release all the jellyfish. Start scouting.”

-All right. Ruler, what are you planning to do with the hive?

“Take care of defense. For now, build 3 tentacles for each hatchery. First, secure as many workers and queens as possible. Mr. Guru, please clean up the dangerous kids around you.”

-I will carry out your orders, my lord.

-I follow your orders.

The power of the corps comes from the amount of water pouring out of the colony and overwhelming reconnaissance ability, and since a big fight will surely take place here, they had to hurry up in advance.

Jellyfish for reconnaissance and small spiders to create a colony poured out from Leviathan’s massive body and started to move busily.

-reconnaissance! reconnaissance!

-ruler! Creature found!

Surprisingly, the world that I entered through the door opened by the ruler of disasters, seen through the sight of jellyfish, is not at all unfamiliar to me.

The humid air under the hot sun, the thick jungle, and the swarming creatures of the corps full of vitality, were scenes like those seen in various documentaries and movies featuring dinosaurs.

In addition, the appearance of various creatures inhabiting this strange land was quite enough to catch my eye.

“Are these the brothers of the Legion?”

There were crab-like creatures, scorpion-like creatures, and even all sorts of gigantic insect-like creatures reminiscent of cockroaches, bees, centipedes, and ants.

“Oh, these are all worms, too.”

Taking a quick look at the bug-type creatures living here, it seems that they have created a typical world of the weak and the weak, targeting each other’s colonies and hunting down weak individuals for food.

Those are some pretty interesting guys.

If it was a native creature living here, there was a very high probability that it was related to the primordial legion or something. In other words, I might be able to select a useful one from among those creatures and incorporate it into my legion.

It was well worth the time and effort invested in observing and studying them.

“When the colony is completed to some extent, we proceed with collecting samples of the native organisms here. There is plenty to eat here.”

―I see, my lord.

It is a very satisfying result to find a clue to greatly upgrade the strength of the corps. However, the most important guy was nowhere to be seen.

In the jellyfish’s field of vision, native creatures of all shapes and sizes are captured, but the disastrous chunks of flesh with which it wriggles and confronts me are nowhere to be seen.

Research is important, but I’m here to fight. First of all, finding the ruler of the disaster is an urgent priority.

“Where the hell is the ruler of disaster?”

―Master, there are not enough jellyfish to scout.

“Then, reduce the number of workers and replenish the jellyfish first. We need to find him as soon as possible.”

While I was supervising the corps preparations for battle and grasping the surrounding environment, a man approached me from behind and asked me.

“… … Jiwoo, where are you? What about the other guys?”

When I turned my head, there was Kang Jin-hyeok, whose head was pressed down and dog oil was dripping down his face.

“Well… … This is a rather dangerous place.”

“Dangerous? … … how much?”

“Probably the most dangerous operation we’ve ever undertaken. So I left everyone else behind.”

If you think about it, Kang Jin-hyeok is a guy who doesn’t have to be here. I wondered if I had brought this guy to a dangerous place for no reason.

It was for this reason that, unlike usual, I did not ask the others to follow me at all.

I couldn’t even predict what was going to happen here. However, it is unconditionally certain that I will have to fight in this strange land with another powerful legion master, the Lord of Calamity.

I haven’t been able to accurately figure out the opponent’s strength yet, but I know very well what characteristics those disaster guys have. Besides, when I saw the amazing ability the ruler of disaster showed, I could never think of him as an easy opponent.

In this situation, there was a high probability that if there were other people in the party, they would be bothered and bothered for nothing.

The apostle’s powers were certainly of great help in the early stages when the colony was not yet complete, but the rest of the party did not add much to the strength of the corps at all even when they all joined forces.

As the opponent is strong enough to cause tension, at times like this, having no one around is much less burdensome for me to be active than increasing the number of people I need to pay attention to.

“Because it was a dangerous operation, leaving the apostle and the others behind… … Wait, but what about me?”

“ah… … sorry. I forgot I was riding you.”

“… … .”

The problem is that this guy named Kang Jin-hyeok is so insignificant as air that I didn’t pay much attention to him. No, maybe the air has a much stronger presence than this friend.

The only time this friend revealed his presence was when he shared his homemade food at mealtime.

“… … did you really forget? Someone as smart as you?”

“Hey, it’s not like I can remember everything like a machine. When I focus on other things, I often overlook trivial matters.”

“Right. I am the subject of trivial matters.”

“… … .”

Ha, great.

As people live, they may forget.

Anyway, I guess I’ll have to send this pouty friend back through the door he came in.

“Hey, do you have a pressure suit? Put it on, ride a jellyfish, go out through the door again, and call the apostle.”

But here comes a problem.

“A door? Where is it?”

“… … What the fuck?”

The dimensional door that would send this guy back had disappeared.

“Ha, such a son of a bitch.”

Of course, the door to that dimension through which I was able to come here was made by the ruler of disaster. It was said that opening and closing it depended only on his will.

And that unkind bastard couldn’t even hope for the possibility of reopening the door for Kang Jin-hyeok to return to the outside unless I surrendered and surrendered myself.

“Do you have a [Gate] bracelet?”

“There is, but… … Where are you? I can’t get the coordinates that I can access at all.”

“… … What?”

Furthermore, to my surprise, the location of this place was not properly displayed on the ‘Dimension Map’ I had previously purchased.

No, where the hell is this place to eat?

Whatever happened, I couldn’t help it.

“Hey, cook me something while I’m working.”

“… … What about the menu?”

“With the usual menu.”

If you can’t send them back to a safe place, you just have to do what Kang Jin-hyeok can do.

Fortunately, this friend was good at running away and didn’t have much of a presence, so just because he was next to me didn’t bother me as much as the rest of the group.

Above all, this friend had the ability to cook delicious dishes that were perfect for my palate. This was more important to me than I thought.

“Let’s eat and eat.”

I don’t remember losing since I started eating before the fight.

“I will definitely win this fight.”

[I’ve been waiting for this moment.]

There was a creature so gigantic that it was reminiscent of the famous mountain ranges of the Earth due to the accumulation of ice caps. The blond man standing in front of the creature soon linked everything he had experienced outside.

[The last brother with the key appears.]

Just as Han Ji-woo usually works with a human incarnation and hides the main body inside the whale, this huge creature was also the main body of the ruler of disaster.

The main body of the disaster was still rooted in the place where the legion started, unlike Han Ji-woo, who liked to move around like this.

[I will take the key my brother has, and I will finally occupy the pond of the beginning. With it, I will gain this world.]

As the ruler of calamity sent a strong signal in all directions, the land in various places cracked open, and the governing entities of the flesh that had been sleeping in the depths began to creep out.

The size of these ruling entities was also formidable, and those who crawled out were boasting the size of a moderate volcano.

[Split.]

At the behest of their rulers, gigantic masses of flesh began to devour and nourish the insectoid beasts everywhere, while factory-cutting copies of the native creatures.

The production process was so rapid that it didn’t take long for the scourge to fill the land and skies everywhere with flesh monsters.

[Legion, go get the key.]

The place where the ruler of disaster was located was the opposite area to the place where the colony of spiders was now. It was a distance that required one lap around the planet, but the Troops of Calamity were not the ones who got caught up in trivial issues like this distance.

The ruler of this corps had a very powerful ability to open the door to the place he wanted with the power he obtained by absorbing other monarchs in the past.

Flash-!!!

A splendid golden aura emanating from the ruler embroidered everywhere, and a huge oval-shaped portal was created in the place where the aura was lifted.

This was the door to the place where the ruler of the brother army was located, and the route of attack.

[Go, my children.]

It was the very moment when the ruler of calamity was about to launch his forces with courage.

【Don’t be a jerk, you bastard.】

Before the flesh jumped in, the spiders began to rush out of the portal first, and inversely, disasters began to eat them.

Surprisingly, the number of spiders was not so great, but the catastrophe clearly overshadowed the situation.

【You bastard, have you ever been beaten by a snow crab who enjoys RPG games?】

At the forefront of the counterattacking spider army, there were snow crabs that boasted a much larger size than before, exuding a jet-black aura.

Each time these heavy friends, born with the power of the first demon, swung their pincers, the flesh in front of them was instantly reprocessed into an excellent source of protein.

The catastrophes that were cut into pieces by the claws of snow crabs that exuded a dark aura never reproduced or divided again, even if the dominant entities gave orders.

The object of disaster with that powerful regenerative power had really died completely.

The ruler of the disaster could not hide his admiration at the sight.

[As expected, the one who uses the power of the crab lord.]

However, unlike his peaceful will and relaxed admiration, the war situation was deteriorating really quickly. From the back of the snow crab, a legion of newly formed spiders began to emerge like waves.

After a very short time, the ruling objects around them also began to be attacked by the spider army.

As the situation deteriorated rapidly, the ruler of the disaster had no choice but to hastily close the large-scale portal he had opened by consuming his mental power.

【Just wait there. I will visit you soon.]

The Legion’s ruler declared conquest.
