Steel eating player chapter 169

 
=================================
Late in the afternoon, when the sky began to turn orange, Park Jun-mo glanced out the window and stuck out his tongue.
“Ha… Those are the planes we’ve been riding on, laughing and smashing them all together as if they were playing with some toy.”
This was a large garage attached to one side of the panic runway, where all the cars used in panic were stored.
And inside, a group of people gathered together.
They were the passengers of the airliner Lee Hyun-wook and his party were on. About 10 minutes ago, the airliner made an emergency landing on a runway not occupied by the Titans, and then quickly got off and escaped here.
“Ha… still unable to communicate.”
“Will we have to wait until they go away?”
“But what if I get caught before that?”
“Damn, I should have just gone to another airport.”
“… … It couldn’t be more than a gas.”
Voices mixed with anxiety came from everywhere.
Probably because the titans were walking on the runway beyond one thin sheet metal wall, making a thump-thump-thumping roar.
With every step they took, their heart rate was forcibly going up and down again and again.
and… … .
Kaga River!
They were sitting with their buttocks on the ground with their 20-meter long spears driven into the runway, dismantling the plane they were riding on like some Lego toy.
Then, the convoy and the red players inside take out the corpse and chew it… … Seriously, I couldn’t help but get goosebumps.
“Damn, you’re a giant in Greek costumes in our Roman land that destroyed Greece…”
“Isn’t it Alexander the Great who destroyed Greece?”
“It’s also one of the ancient Greek kingdoms. No, that’s not important… Now what? Those, I heard that one level is a hundred units.”
As is already known to the public, each titan hoplite reaches a whopping 110 levels.
It was a monster stronger than the general monster, the boss monster here, the 2nd Prince of the Dark Elves, Clipeus Griseo, based on a simple calculation.
There are now three such crabs around here.
Also, when looking down from the sky before landing, there were a dozen or so roaming within a few kilometers of this area.
‘And there must have been an elite monster like the Vanguard… … .’
He was at level 125 or higher, equivalent to the chlorinated giant Phaeton, and was a difficult opponent to use various magic.
Furthermore, he summons the titan hoplites from around the world where the situation becomes unfavorable and uses things like a ‘phalanx’ square.
However, Lee Hyun-wook was thinking of this moment as an opportunity.
‘Maybe this is… … It’s an opportunity to get a pretty big boost in abilities faster than you think.’
If one individual hunted several titans, which were actually at the level of boss monsters, one fairly good ‘achievement’ could be achieved.
‘…so-called  .’
If you hunt a total of 10 Titans, you will receive an achievement that increases all abilities by 20%, total mana by 20%, and stun immunity by 30%.
‘And the number rises slightly in units of 10.’
In such an absurd crisis, a huge reward was always hidden.
Of course, in the midst of a disaster that overturns the whole world, I wonder if I can afford to gather those gains… … If it was Lee Hyun-wook now, it would have been possible.
And one of Lee Hyun-wook’s moglay bags had an effect suitable for dealing with a very large monster called ‘Barrier Breaker’.
‘After all, a crisis is an opportunity.’
Lee Hyun-wook decided what to do next, turned his head and told everyone.
“… … Guys, I have a plan.”
All eyes were drawn to his remarks.
Since he was a man who had already saved them once, he must have felt hope in his voice.
However, after hearing Lee Hyun-wook’s explanation of the operation, not a single person showed a positive reaction.
“Gee, now… does that make sense?”
On the contrary, there were others who reacted like this.
“I… I honestly think it’s courageous. No matter how strong it is… in that way…”
“I don’t like it. I don’t think it’s best to be so reckless.”
As a player, they must have known well that at least three or four attacking teams were needed to catch that one titan hoplite.
However, since there are three of them in one place, it would take enough 20 attack teams to catch them safely… … Lee Hyun-wook was not talking about ‘escape’ to avoid them, but about ‘attacking’ to hunt them down.
In response to such a reaction, Hyunwook Lee nodded casually.
“If you really don’t like my plans, you can stay here. I don’t need all of you in my operations.”
“……”
“Okay then, I’ll take the resources.”
“greatness…….”
Because they could only rely on Lee Hyun-wook right now, they could not hide their anxiety, but in the end they decided to follow his plan one by one.
“From now on, you just have to believe in me and run hard once…”
Lee Hyun-wook said so and stretched out his left hand.
Drooling——
At that moment, the shutter of the garage opened by itself and a wide runway opened up.
“… … Was that an automatic door?”
***
“Hey, you, pigs, cubs!”
It was Kim Se-hee who shouted so loudly.
As she soared into the sky with the wind, she shouted again at the three titan hoplites who were tearing apart the airliner.
“Hey, hey, here!”
At that moment, the guys who were chewing on someone’s corpse turned their heads and wrinkled their faces.
“Ha, even if they stretched out their hands, it would be 20m narrower…”
To be honest, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t scared.
She took a deep breath and prepared to run away.
“… … What is that?”
As they got up from their seats, they lifted up the shield leaning on the plane and pulled out the 20m-long spear that had been lodged next to it.
“Look at that person over there, he screams for food.”
“How do you get one of those and share it?”
“Even so, it’s delicious to be alive, isn’t it?”
“That’s right, it’s good to jump and jump in your mouth.”
The three of them smiled and nodded their heads.
“Then, whoever catches it first eats, how about it?”
As soon as those words were finished, the three of them kicked off the floor and started running as if they were competing.
Thump, Thump, Thump, Thump
With each heavy step, cracks appeared in the thick asphalt of the runway.
But then
“You tall idiots, here they are!”
In another direction, from the right, someone shouted.
This time, it was Park Jun-mo’s voice, and a truck popped out of the vicinity and started to sound Klaxon.
Pa—-!
“I have five people in here!”
And this time on the left, again, a truck appeared, and the players inside it were screaming and annoying them.
“Oh, in this case, there are only three.”
“I’m going to the right!”
So the three of them started running in different directions.
‘Okay, that’s it.’
Lee Hyun-wook was looking down at the scene in a state of invisibility in the high sky.
‘If these three giants are united, it will be a troublesome opponent in many ways, but if they are careless and dispersed like that, they can be defeated individually.’
In other words, it’s a much easier fight.
He decided to first target the titan hoplites chasing the truck on which Junmo Park was riding.
Meanwhile, there were a lot of people in the two trucks running in different directions, because if you try to lure them with too few, they might not be interested.
‘In any case, the greater the greed, the less likely it is to look around, and the foolish mentality is the same for the titans.’
Shhhhhhhhhh——!
“……Huh?”
He noticed a roar in the sky and turned his head, but the reaction speed was slow, probably because he was not imagining the threat of Miyeon at all.
One billion——!
“Turn it off——!”
A dagger was lodged in the neck of the guy who stepped backwards with a scream.
No, that’s… … It was a giant sword Mowglay, but it looked relatively small as it was embedded in the giant’s neck.
However, even a short dagger would have been normal if it had not changed that it would have been a fatal blow if it was pierced correctly… … .
‘Yeah, even if you stab it properly like this, you’ll be fine.’
At level 110, it was also very large, and as it was a warrior-type monster, it did not seem to die instantly no matter how lethal it was.
However, Mowglay’s real firepower had just begun.
“Ah, it’s something like this… … .”
The moment he’s about to pull out Mowglay…
‘Shockwave One’
Whoa, whoa, whoa
A tremendous tyranny erupted from the back of his neck, and he dropped the spears and shields of both hands.
Again, thanks to his considerable defense, his head didn’t explode, but his eyes popped out and his tongue was pulled out, and all kinds of red liquid poured down like a waterfall.
Perhaps it was the brain.
thump
His body turned forward.
‘Okay, it was easy.’
“… … Huh?”
The two titan hoplites, who were running in two different directions, stopped and turned to Lee Hyun-wook.
Their eyes turned to my colleague’s corpse lying on the floor, then slowly raised it and looked at Lee Hyun-wook.
And growling like a beast, he started running towards this side with his spear and shield twisted.
bang! bang! bang! bang!
The sound of footsteps is unbelievable… … The earth’s axis shook, and at the overwhelming speed of the two giants, they began to run faster and faster.
Lee Hyun-wook flew towards the relatively close of the two.
“One Park Jun-mo, show that guy a thrilling taste!”
At that moment, like a curtain on the world, it began to darken layer by layer. Suddenly, dark clouds gathered in the sky.
rumble——
Soon, dozens of lightning bolts fell from there, smashing the titan hoplites targeted by Hyun-wook Lee.
One and one and one and one light——!
「Uh uh uh–」
The impact caused his knees to fold, and he pushed the floor with his spear and shield, trying to hold on somehow.
‘Okay, it’s a break.’
Hyun-wook Lee shot Mowglay’s ‘Space Cutter’ at him.
The blade of mana that cut through the space in an instant, it cut through the man’s upper body.
👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
「Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
First of all, the right fingers of the guy fell down and missed the spear.
Then, half an iron shield the size of a normal building was cut in half, and a long mourning occurred from the left shoulder to the right side, and blood gushed out.
「Ugh… … .”
But, again, it was impossible to retire with just that one shot.
Thump, Thump, Thump, Thump
“Wait- I’m on my way!”
At that moment, the other guy was running at full speed to save his comrade.
‘If that guy joins, it’s doubly difficult.’
However, Lee Hyun-wook was not the one to keep an eye on.
“Yeah, just looking at it, I’m going to have to go this time, right?”
This voice was Maru.
“I feel really dirty because it’s frustrating to be locked up, but I need to get my anger out on that kid!”
Maru was very angry that he had been locked up in subspace for a long time as an item for flight.
It seemed that there was a trauma of being imprisoned in a spirit prison for a long time. ….
Wooded one
The asphalt on the floor and the runway swayed like waves and rose up, shaking the man’s center of gravity.
「Turn it off」
As if standing on a moving walk that flows in the opposite direction, his footsteps became even slower, followed by Kim Se-hee and Hani Hani.
Whoa whoa–
Based on the low pressure caused by the rise of the dark clouds, she created a huge tornado and slammed it on the back.
bang! bang!
Then, some flames rose from both of his knees, and they were arrows shot by the second prince.
‘Okay, you’re blocking the other one well.’
Meanwhile, Hyun-wook Lee flew around the other guy and started hitting the back of his knee, the back of his neck, and between the gaps in the heavy armor with moglay.
One billion——!
「ね一 I’m like the dwarfs… … .”
Just as the runway was filled with red blood, the man who could not hold back raised his crouched body and swung his half-shield.
‘Okay, this time it’s a break!’
At that moment—the two Pale knots that had been hovering around him pierced his eyes.
Whoops, whoops
Of course, it wasn’t easy to aim for that little eye socket. Because he acted so wildly, there was a clear gap, and Lee Hyun-wook was aiming for this very moment.
「Aaaaah… … .”
And the eyes, no matter how titanium, corresponded to the weakest part.
The man shook his head, screaming as if it was more painful than any other wound.
That was a bigger gap.
shh one
At that moment, Hyun-wook Lee moved ‘Sudarsana’ and made a hole-in-one in his mouth.
Kaga Gaga——!
「Ugh——」
Red traces, like a rotary saw blade, filled his mouth and overflowed, and then the whole lower tube was cut off with a crackling sound, and the large body flew backwards.
“Oh, no… … .”
After defeating two of them, there was only one left.
And, of course, it was a much easier match than the previous two.
thud–
After a while, even the last one fell on the runway.
Lee Hyun-wook was standing tall with 4 moglays in his head, stepping on his forehead.
And all the passengers were watching the scene.
“Uh… all, you… those weapons…”
There was only one person in the world who could wield such a huge four swords, so I couldn’t help but be suspicious.
“Surely, Steelein…”
Like the last Yggdrasil slum… … He tried to hide his identity and move secretly, but when the situation escalated like this, he had to reveal his identity.
“What? Is that real? His face is completely different… Wasn’t that guy Asian?”
“… … Oh, come to think of it, I think I’ve seen him manipulating metal a few times. Maybe in disguise… … How did you do it?”
It was only then that the passengers realized that they were having great fortune amidst a series of misfortunes.
And as a rumor spread slowly, no one could control it.
Stilane, it was the story that he came to save Europe.
***
Hyunwook Lee and his party evacuated the passengers to a safe shelter and then entered the city of Rome.
Night came, and they decided to spend the night in a hotel in the city of Rome.
“… … There is no one.”
“At this point, there’s no way anyone is there. Everyone must have fled to the shelter.”
“Well, under these circumstances, you won’t be sued for renting a bed for a day.”
Meanwhile, as the emergency frequency was restored among Mana communications, Hyun-wook Lee and his party were able to hear the news from outside.
– … … This broadcast is an emergency evacuation broadcast hosted by the EU Players Association. Currently, the air raids of super-sized monsters are underway all over Europe…
He said the same thing is happening simultaneously in 21 regions across Europe.
And the radius would gradually widen and the level of the Titans that appeared would increase.
‘If this is the case, we must also change our plans.’
The original plan was to seize the Dark Elf’s ‘Terminal’ hidden somewhere in Rome, then infiltrate the Dark Elf Kingdom through there, contact the insider hidden by the 2nd Prince, and rescue the ‘Dark Elf King’.
If the operation was successful, it would be able to disrupt and divide the Dark Elf Kingdom, which had turned into a hostile attitude.
‘However, the fact that   started as early as now can be expected that the Dark Elf Corps, which joined forces with the Titans, will also advance earlier than expected.
In other words, the point at which the defense of the Dark Elf Kingdom will significantly decrease will occur in the near future.
‘It’s better to wait until then.’
When Lee Hyun-wook explained such a thought, the second prince also agreed.
“Um… there is a certain truth to that statement. Then the general and his generals will leave the palace… so it will be much easier to bring Abamama.”
So, the plan to invade the Dark Elf Kingdom was delayed a bit.
“Well, then, what are you going to do until then?”
At Kim Se-hee’s question, Lee Hyun-wook looked out the window.
Thump one Thump
Giants were wandering through this historic city center.
In the darkness, dark shadows lingered over the buildings, and from time to time a terrifying scream erupted from their grasp.
And the scream… … disappeared from their mouths.
Looking at the bizarre scene, Lee Hyun-wook answered briefly.
“Um… we hunt.”
Yes, achieve the achievement   as quickly as possible. That was Lee Hyun-wook’s plan.
However, the faces of the group were completely hardened.
“Sa, hunting?”
Although I caught three of them earlier, it was too risky to continue to collide with such overwhelmingly large monsters.
“That… we had a good fight just now, but there must be more than three titans around here, right?”
At Kim Se-hee’s words, Lee Hyun-wook nodded.
To be honest, I had to admit it. Previously, the strategy was just good, and the chances of that operation continuing to work were very low.
“By the way, what if we had a bigger giant on our side?”
“… … Yes?”
Lee Hyun-wook pulled something out of his arms.
It was a golden leaf.
[Item information]
– Name: World Bridge (Special)
– Effect: When mana is injected, an ultra-wide teleport to the ‘registered place’ opens.
This item was supported by Donald Harris, and it was a very precious item that Yggdrasil produced only once a month.
And as you can see from the item description, it was a consumable item that could open the ‘Wight Hall’, a super wide portal.
‘Now it doesn’t matter if we open the White Hall in the sky of Rome.’
Now, in effect, the plan of working undercover had passed, and the situation had changed so rapidly that there was no need for it.
‘This opens the White Hall that connects Seoul and brings the body of Talos from Laputa.’
Level 170, 26.5m Orichalcon giant Talos… … .
In front of him, even the most titans were just dwarfs.
And when I contacted Sang-min Yeo, who had returned to Laputa, another good news came.
– … … The head of the research institute said that the dragon equipment set is complete, how do we prepare it and send it together?
A set of dragon equipment completed before the big war… … It was indeed a timely dissemination.
‘If that’s the case… … As soon as the sun comes up, I need to sort out the ranks of the Roman giants.’
