Sand Mage of the Burnt Desert Chapter 335

Episode 335

“Ugh!”

“ha! ha!”

More than 2,000 people fell to the ground, breathing heavily.

They were the awakened members of the Magic Stone Mine Expedition who fell under the underground barrier.

They all escaped the barrier and came to the ground…

“Huh! “Huh!”

The old man was sprawled out making the sound of being out of breath.

Because all of his strength was put into lifting the barrier, he didn’t even have the strength to lift a finger.

Twin sisters were lying on either side of him.

They had poured all their strength into helping the old man. Thanks to this, they were also completely exhausted.

Seo Tae-ran ordered his men ·

“We protect the numbers as our top priority…”

“yes!”

The subordinates responded in unison and surrounded the three men.

Their whole bodies were also covered with big and small wounds.

Some of the dogs had wounds so deep that their internal organs were visible.

It was a deep wound that would not have been surprising even if an ordinary person would have died already. Even after receiving such wounds, the subordinate did not show any pain at all.

It seemed like he didn’t have the sense of apperception that an ordinary human being should naturally have…

That wasn’t the only strange thing…

The deep wounds sustained while dealing with Bone Drake were recovering quickly.

The wound, which had been cut so deep that internal organs were visible, had been sutured to some extent.

It was an incredible regenerative power that could not be considered human.

It was a secret that Seo Tae-ran and City Hall wanted to keep hidden until the end.

This is because a group of superhumans with such powerful regenerative powers show their true value when kept hidden. However, since so many people have witnessed it, it is no longer a secret.

That fact made Seo Tae-ran’s appetite bitter, but he couldn’t help it.

This is because Bone Drake was not an opponent that could be dealt with while hiding various secrets…

Seo Tae-ran’s subordinates fought fiercely against Drake, who had broken the seal at this stage, and thanks to this, the other awakened people were able to remain safe.

The problem is that even though the battle was so fierce, Bone Drake was not completely defeated.

Bone Drake was a monster that never died…

No matter how strong the regenerative power of Seo Tae-ran’s subordinates was, they were still within the category of living creatures.

Wounds that exceed the limits of life do not heal and deteriorate to death.

This Drake was different…

No matter how much they were destroyed, they came back to life…

Undead·

It literally never dies or is destroyed until the core is destroyed.

Seo Tae-ran’s subordinates struggled to find Bone Drake’s core, but were unable to find it in the end.

All that remained was a tedious war of attrition…

The only way left to them was to slowly find and destroy the core over time.

It was the same with Bone Drake that other raid leaders were dealing with…

Even the experienced leader of each attack team had difficulty in the attack as they were unable to find Bone Drake’s hidden core.

In the end, it was best for them to give up on defeating Bone Drake in a short period of time and prevent him from attacking other awakened people.

I didn’t know how much we fought…

Several of the raiders were seriously injured and left the battle.

Because of this, the remaining people were cornered…

It was at that moment that something happened…

Bone Drakes, who had been vigorously pushing the raid leader and Seo Tae-ran’s men, suddenly lost their lives and were broken into pieces.

Bone Drake, broken into large pieces of bone, never moved again after that.

“What? “It’s not like we destroyed the nucleus…”

“Isn’t it possible that the sand wizard killed the necromancer?”

This happened after Zeon created a wall of sand to prevent the Hydra from escaping.

Of course, people couldn’t help but think that way…

Even if an undead has infinite regenerative power, if the necromancer dies, all mana flowing in is cut off and life is lost.

It was then that the barrier was lifted…

“Everyone get out…”

The people who were tired of hearing the old man’s shouts left the underground without thinking anymore.

The result was like this now…

Twenty-three hundred awakened people were lying on the floor, panting…

I couldn’t be happier with the scorching sun that seemed to pierce my skin…

“Shit! “You got out of that hellish place.”

“ha! ha! “If I ever go underground again, I will not be a human, but a bastard.”

“This is the first time in my life that I’ve been so glad to see the sun.”

Most people lay flat and enjoyed the hot sun. However, Levin and Brielle did not look comfortable.

“Why doesn’t your brother come out?”

“You sure didn’t get hit, right?”

The two people’s faces were full of worry.

Then Eloi said to them,

“Are you worried about that person now? “Don’t worry, even if you fall into hell, you’re a human being who will climb back up. It’s not like you don’t have that much faith, right?”

“Who says you don’t have faith?”

“I’m just saying that because I’m worried…”

Eloy smiled at the two people who were getting upset.

“okay! Kids! So just believe it. Even if you worry about other people, you don’t need to worry about that person.”

Elroy looked up at the sky, clutching her crazy nine-tailed fox tightly.

Like everyone else, I’m just trying to enjoy the hot sun.

It was then that the change occurred…

Quaaaaa!

The sky high above the horizon suddenly darkened and a storm raged…

It was a phenomenon that people commonly called a waterspout.

Like a dragon ascending to the sky, a sandstorm rose from the ground and rose into the sky.

“What is that?”

“Is it a tornado?”

The waterspout that started on the ground quickly penetrated the darkened sky.

As it is, the waterspout is rapidly gaining strength…

By drawing in the surrounding sand and wind, it instantly grew several times larger.

Qarring!

Lightning continued to strike in the darkened sky, as if enraged by the sandstorm.

Every time lightning strikes, the whole world turns white.

A gigantic streak of lightning, which seemed to only appear if an S-class awakener exerted all his might, struck the sandstorm without stopping…

Qarring!

Every time lightning struck, it was accompanied by a thunderous sound like the roar of a monster.

It was as if lightning and waterspout were fighting…

It looked like a battle of giant demonic beasts competing to eat each other.

Because it was their first time seeing such a miraculous sight, all the awakened people looked on in fascination.

It’s a shame because the distance is so far away, but if something like that had happened right nearby, it wouldn’t have been an uproar with everyone running away to avoid the falling lightning.

“Wow!”

“I’m crazy…”

“What the hell is going on?”

The awakened people were mesmerized and looked at the overwhelming scenery created by nature. However, some of them looked at the phenomenon occurring in the distance with serious expressions.

“That is by no means a natural phenomenon…”

“Something is happening over there…”

“Shit!”

Even though it is a phenomenon that occurs far away, my hair stands on end, and the goosebumps that arose cannot subside.

The instincts of the High Awakened were warning…

Something unusual is happening over there…

Flash! Qarring!

As time passed, the battle between lightning and waterspout became more intense.

Lightning poured down like rain, and the waterspout has now grown beyond a simple storm to the point where it can engulf an area.

Kwakwakwa!

The sandstorm, rotating with terrifying momentum, soared into the sky as if it had gathered all its remaining strength.

Hundreds and thousands of lightning bolts struck such a sandstorm…

It was a sight as if the end of the world had come.

Just looking at it from afar was enough to make me feel sad.

Brielle muttered as if she realized something…

“Could it be Xeon?”

“That’s what Zeon did?”

Levin looked at the place where the natural disaster occurred in disbelief… But Brielle did not respond…

Because all my attention was focused on the sandstorm…

No one here thinks Xeon can create a sandstorm like that…

That’s because the sandstorm seen now was so enormous that even an S-class awakened person couldn’t create it…

But Brielle knew well…

Zeon’s actual abilities are much stronger than people vaguely guess.

“Xeon! “What on earth are you fighting?”

＊＊＊

Shoooo!

A doll was falling to the ground…

It was Zeon who fell, looking as black as charcoal.

Even as he crashed toward the ground like a meteor, Zeon’s eyes were fixed on the sky.

Nigel, the half-demon dragon who had just fought a fierce battle with him, disappeared like a mirage.

The sky was completely clear, with all the scary lightning and rain and the enormous pressure that had been pressing him gone as if it were a lie.

The sandstorm that Zeon had brought about was also dispersing and disappearing.

“Didn’t you win in the end?”

But it wasn’t like I lost…

If I had to explain it, he was hit with a big blow and returned a few small blows.

“Tsk! “This is the loss…”

If I had to correct it, it was a draw, but it has no meaning…

Because Nigel, the half-demon dragon, did not use his full power, and Xeon did not fully reveal his hidden moves.

Nigel probably knows that too…

Still, I just passed by…

It seemed to Nigel that what was important was not Xeon’s true strength…

The question was whether Zeon met the minimum good he wanted.

When Zeon crossed that line, he left this place without any regrets.

Even as he was falling, Xeon thought…

“The jewel recovered from Pilgram’s chest seemed important… That must be the real reason Nigel moved…”

No matter how much Pilgram was a legendary necromancer in Kurayan, he was now merely an appendage of the dungeon…

A boss subordinate to the dungeon, nothing more or less…

They created a summon that was too strong for that topic.

Both Bone Drake and Bon Hydra were undead that were too much for Pilgram to create.

It might have been possible when he was alive, but it was impossible now that he had become the boss of the dungeon and lost his autonomy.

It was clear that such a thing was possible because of the jewel that Pilgram had hidden deep in his heart.

“It is clear that it contains too much power for a single human to possess… That is why Nigel came to retrieve it…”

I didn’t know how Nigel was going to use the gem…

If Nigel, who is otherwise powerful, uses the power contained in the jewel, he will become uncontrollably strong.

“But he didn’t seem to covet the jewel’s power… rather he seemed extremely reluctant to use it… as if he should never use the jewel… What is the reason?”

While Zeon was lost in his own world, the earth was rapidly getting closer…

No matter how much Zeon crashed to the ground like this, he had no choice but to lose his life… But Zeon had no worries…

-Beep!

This is because a small whale sticking out of subspace gently caught his body.

Gaia saved Xeon just before he fell.

Zeon lay on Gaia’s back and stroked her head.

“thank you!”

-Beep!

“Sorry! “I didn’t even have the strength to lift a finger.”

-beep! Bleep!

“okay! “I only trusted you. Next time, I won’t make you worry like this.”

-beep?
