Solo Leveling- Ragnarok

Chapter 161 - 161



Chapter 161: Chapter 161

Tomb of the Dragons.

This was the place where the final war between the Shadow Lord Seong Jin-woo, the King of the Dead, and Antares, the King of the Light Dragons and the Lord of Destruction, took place.

The war between the two powerful forces was truly fierce and brutal, and in the end, it was Seong Jin-woo's shadow army that emerged victorious.

As a result, from that day on, the corpses of countless dragons turned to ash were scattered like a blizzard across this land.

Cha Hae-in and Sirka had entered this bleak and desolate land to restore the power of the shadow dragon Kaisel.

Kaisel, whose strength had weakened while protecting Cha Hae-in, fell into a deep sleep immediately after arriving here in Cha Hae-in's arms.

This is a kind of hibernation.

On the outside, it looked like he had just fallen asleep, but now Kaisel was absorbing the power of the tiny dragons contained in the gray ash.

While Kaisel was recovering his strength, there was only one thing for Cha Hae-in and Sirka to do.

Vaguely wandering around this desolate land.

At first, they planned to find a suitable place to stay and wait for Kaisel to recover.

But not long after that, Kaisel woke up yawning profusely.

What Kaisel wanted was clear.

Keep moving.

This was because there was a limit to the power that could be absorbed in one place.

In a way, it was natural.

In the first place, the energy contained in the corpses of the light dragons was only a mere glimmer of energy.

In order for Kaisel, who had hit rock bottom, to absorb enough energy to recover his full strength, he might have to travel all over this dimension.

Cha Hae-in and Sirka, who understood the principle, began wandering the land in search of new places to help Kaisel recover.

After a while.

"...!"

As they wandered aimlessly, a truly huge and majestic silhouette appeared in front of them.

"Chacha! "I'll cover you!"

Under Sirka's cover, Cha Hae-in drew his sword and slowly approached him.

After approaching through the gray blizzard... ....

Finally, the reality was clearly revealed before them.

"oh my god."

They couldn't help but be astonished.

"..."It wasn't all reduced to ashes."

Surprisingly, in front of them were the huge corpses of dragons that had not yet been reduced to ashes, with only their bones remaining.

"It feels like I'm at some kind of dinosaur museum."

Cha Hae-in felt a little overwhelmed by the grandeur of the giant dragon bones.

[purr....]

At that moment, Kai Sel also woke up and looked around him with sleepy eyes.

Cha Hae-in asked while stroking Kaisel's back.

"How are you? Do you think your strength will recover faster here?"

[Grrr....]

Kaisel slowly closed his eyes as if he felt good at Cha Hae-in's touch.

Sirka, who saw that expression from the side, said with joy.

"Great. It is inevitable that the recovery rate will be much higher around corpses that have at least bones left than corpses that have been reduced to ashes. "The corpses of dragons are a tremendous treasure in themselves."

In response to Sirka's words, India nodded.

Even when I think back to my past life, dragon bones were truly a tremendous resource.

It boasted tremendous strength and durability to bear the weight of the massive dragon, and of course its mana sensitivity was the best.

"Great. "If we take all these bones to Earth and make weapons, it will be of great help to Su-ho."

"I know. It's been so old that it's weathered and deteriorated, but if you look closely, you'll find many intact bone fragments... ...."

It was just at the moment when Cha Hae-in reached for his necklace to open his inventory.

Creepy!

"damage!"

"...!"

Cha Hae-in and Sirka suddenly felt like they had made a promise to live, so they scattered in opposite directions.

Kwaang-!

Then a huge explosion occurred where they were standing.

Grumble!

In the aftermath of the explosion, the bones of nearby dragons collapsed.

Cha Hae-in and Sirka hurriedly avoided the debris and prepared for battle.

"I'll cover you!"

Wow!

Sirka quickly retreated and pulled the bowstring, and Cha Hae-in immediately jumped forward with his sword in hand.

Then, the identity of those who caused the explosion was finally revealed to Cha Hae-in's vision.

"Kirlaka!"

"Kirukadra!"

"...!"

Cha Hae-in's eyes widened.

Surprisingly, they were warriors and shamans made of bones.

However, the figure was not like an ordinary human being like a skeleton.

Sirka, who was protecting Cha Hae-in by shooting arrows from behind, recognized their identities and shouted in surprise.

"They're mercenaries!"

"Dragon disease?"

Dragon infantry.

In Greek, they are a legendary race also called Spartoi (Σπαρτο?), meaning 'the sown ones.'

As the name suggests, they were warriors who appeared when a dragon's tooth was planted in the ground.

"It seems like the dragon's teeth that haven't been reduced to ashes have been reborn as demonic beasts!"

Sirka recalled.

King of the bright dragons, Lord of Destruction.

Antares, more commonly called the Dragon Emperor, was the most powerful monarch among all monarchs.

He was the strongest dragon in name and reality, and the light dragons he led were an invincible army with tremendous power and magic.

For a long time, their bodies were left on this earth instead of turning into ashes.

There was no doubt that the power contained in their bone fragments had created the Dragon Soldiers.

however...There was something unclear.

"A dragon child without an owner is born! "This is possible?!"

"What does that mean?"

Cha Hae-in, seeing Sirka's surprised appearance, shouted at Sirka while fighting with the dragon soldiers.

The number of dragon soldiers was as large as the corpses of the dragons left on this land, and they were continuously crawling out of the ground and surrounding Chahaein and Sirka.

but.

"White Flame Storm!"

Rumble!

As Cha Hae-in raised the Demon King's long sword high, hundreds of lightning bolts began to strike from the sky.

"Kirakrak!"

"Karkak!"

The Demon King's long sword was a long sword that contained the power of Baran, the King of Demons and Lord of the White Flame.

The sword had the power to create a storm of constant lightning in the area.

In that overwhelming disaster, the dragon soldiers simply screamed and collapsed.

but.

"Kaaaa!"

"You can withstand this?!"

Cha Hae-in's eyes widened.

Even in the storm of white flames that caused great damage to Italim's apostles, the dragon soldiers were rising again.

"Chacha! "I heard that dragon soldiers are born from dragon teeth and have high defense!"

"It sure looks like that."

Cha Hae-in carefully adjusted his sword.

[Crumbling.]

"Don't worry, Kaisel. "You can keep sleeping."

Sensing something strange, Kai Cell opened her eyes with a worried expression, but Cha Haein smiled and comforted Kai Cell.

"But the damage was definitely done."

As the saying goes, the speed of the dragon soldiers who were hit directly by lightning was noticeably slowed down.

If you deal with them one by one, won't they all end up lying down one day?

Quack!

Cha Hae-in, who swung his sword and cut off the waist of the dragon soldier in front, looked back at Sirka.

"Sirka! So what did you just say? "What's strange?"

"ah...!"

Sirka responded by firing an arrow at the dragon soldier shaman who was making a magic attack from the furthest distance.

"I don't know much about the dragon race, but I know one thing for sure! "A dragon soldier without an owner cannot exist!"

"There must be an owner?"

"huh! I originally heard that dragons make dragon babies by pulling out their own teeth! The purpose is, of course, to protect oneself! To be more precise... ...!"

Sirka's gaze turned to Kaisel, who was sleeping on Cha Hae-in's shoulder.

"Protecting the dragon while it is hibernating! That's the purpose of Yongahyeong's existence!"

"what?"

Cha Hae-in, who heard Sirka's words and realized something strange, looked around.

"But there are no living dragons here?"

"That's why it's strange! "Dragon soldiers who lose their masters return to their teeth!"

"Then what are these guys...."

It was definitely a strange thing.

For this many dragon soldiers to exist, it meant that there had to be that many living dragons here.

But no matter where I looked, I couldn't see any living dragons.

What this means is that the material for these mercenary soldiers is the teeth of these corpses.

"..."So you're saying there's a new owner?"

"Or, someone has appeared who can make dragon infantry using the teeth of other dragons."

"In the end, it's a similar conclusion. "It feels like they won't answer even if I ask."

Thanks to Cha Hae-in's necklace with an interpreter function, he was able to understand the words coming out of the dragon soldiers' mouths from earlier.

"Kirkara (Kill the intruder)!"

"..."You're an intruder."

'That means we've invaded somewhere, or we don't want to invade.'

Where is that somewhere?

Cha Hae-in calmly looked around and shouted as he cut down another dragon soldier.

"Sirka! "I will be in charge here for a while, so you can say a 'prayer' to the Lord of the Cold!"

Sirka is a descendant of the Lord of the Cold Cold, and was able to convey his thoughts to the Lord of the Cold Cold.

Guardian, a 'priest,' was able to awaken the heroic spirit of the Lord of the Cold from his eternal sleep, but Sirka was even able to send a one-sided message through 'prayer.'

And the message sent in that way would be delivered to Suho, the priest, through the Monarch of the Cold.

"..."This is not what the prayer was supposed to be."

Sirka began to pray to Silad, the Lord of the Cold, with a slightly embarrassed expression.

"So what do you want me to tell you?"

* * *

By that time, Suho and Lim Do-gyun had arrived in Busan.

The purpose is, of course, to conquer dungeons.

However, this strategy was a bit of a special case.

"Are you by any chance the guild leader of Woojin's guild?"

"no. My name is Lim Do-gyun, the deputy guild leader. Our boss is this...."

"Oh, sorry!"

At Lim Do-gyun's words, the female hunter who came to greet Woojin's guild blushed and urgently apologized.

Then, with a shy expression, he came in front of Suho and greeted him with a bright expression.

"hello! My name is Lee Joo-hee, a healer from the Knights Guild! "Welcome to Busan!"

"Ah yes. hello. "My name is Seong Su-ho, the guild leader."

"...."

"...?"

But why?

When Lee Joo-hee, who had greeted Suho, came face to face with Suho, she suddenly looked intently at Suho's face with a strange expression.

Suho asked with a puzzled expression.

"Is there anything wrong?"

"Oh, no! Excuse me. The boss's face looks familiar. "I guess it's just my mood."

"...?"

It was Lee Joo-hee who belatedly apologized to Su-ho with an embarrassed expression.

'I'm a very picky person too. How do I know this young man? 'When I lived in Seoul to begin with, this person wouldn't have been born yet.'

Joohee Lee quickly got to the point, blaming herself for making so many mistakes today.

"Hmm. Anyway, CEO Seong Su-ho. Thank you so much for coming to help our Knights Guild. Hunter Lim Tae-gyu arrived first and is waiting at the guild office. "I will guide you."

gulp.

It was Lim Do-gyun, who swallowed dry saliva with a nervous expression upon hearing that his father was waiting.
