Sword qi.
It was an expression of condensed energy in the form of qi and sword.
His sharpness and destructive power could not compare to a simple sword energy.
And the Alpha had an extremely strong skin that could even withstand sword qi.
Thump!
The Alpha Horn Jackal's body like that split and collapsed.
Peng Neung-gyeom, who had fought him head-on, was unable to accept what his eyes saw.
'Who is that.. ah?'
He was surprised by the sight.
It looked hazy as the man opened the attack due to the speed at which he was moving, but the man paused for a moment while slashing the monster.
It was Chun Yeowun, who was wearing a long fluttering black coat.
'No protective suits?'
Outside the barrier should be full of toxic substances.
Peng Neung-gyeom is able to protect his body using internal energy, although he wears protective clothing as he will be exposed to toxic substances for a long time.
But more surprising than that is, the,
'He slashed the Alpha while holding a woman?'
On Chun Yeowun's arm was a woman who seemed to be in her mid to late fifties.
Just by looking at that, he couldn't even understand how they could get out of here.
At that moment, Chun Yeowun reached out to the Alpha's body.
The crack!
The part on the left side of the monster that had split apart, protruded and immediately something pierced through its flesh.
A black ball the size of a human head.
"ah! The core!"
"Come!"
Shouts came out from the mouths of the Gate Guards around him.
It was the core that came out of the dead Alpha's body.
The correct name is
[Core Gate.]
Nano explained it to Chun Yeowun.
'Core Gate?'
[That's true. This was similar to an energy point on a normal monster, but this core was said to be controlling the energy waves connected to the Gate.]
'You mean the energy we felt when the Gate Warning was given?'
[Really. The gate is closed when the outermost shell of the core is damaged.]
Chun Yeowun nodded as if she understood Nano's words.
Chun Yeowun's ability to sense energy had changed a lot since he entered the Heavenly Master Level, which allowed him to sense energy differently than an ordinary person would.
That was why, Chun Yeowun, who was just about to cut him down and leave, stopped in front of Alpha.
"It's similar."
Chun Yeowun sensed that the energy flowing from the core was similar to the energy wave she felt when Gate 26 opened.
'If left like this, these strange monsters will keep coming.'
[Yes.]
'Hmm.'
Chun Yeowun frowned and extended her hand.
The protruding core came out from his flesh, sucked into Chun Yeowun's hands.
Grab it!
Chun Yeowun held the core in her hand, increasing her energy.
'Quite dense.'
Her outer shell was much harder than she thought, but it was not hard enough that she could not break it.
The crack!
A crack is formed on the black ball.
The outer shell of the core began to crack like glass.
Pangs!
A powerful energy wave erupted from the crack.
Holy hooch!
The waves quickly spread out in all directions as the shell broke.
But something strange happened.
As the waves spread out in all directions, the distant Horned Jackal herd suddenly changed direction and dashed towards the west.
'Oh-ho?'
It seemed like they were heading back before the gate closed.
“They will be back!”
"We won!"
“Wahh!!”
Seeing that, the infantry below cheered.
Those running back meant the core had been damaged, an indication that the battle had ended.
But it's not over.
In front of the wall, the officer standing was ordered.
“Do not laze! There are still some left!"
"Remove them!"
Not all Horn Jackals escape because the core is broken.
One or two miles away, many retreated.
But about a hundred of them remained near the wall as if they were protecting the retreating group.
Rather than calling them intelligent, it was more of a group instinct.
Holy hooch!
The outer shell of the core is crushed into powder.
But there is something surprising in it.
A ball the size of a fist emits bright light like an LED light bulb.
[It's pure.]
'Oh ... something similar to the core of a spirit beast?'
Great energy could be felt from him.
Although it was not filled with spiritual energy unlike the core, it still had pure energy within it.
"I'm gonna be lucky."
Chun Yeowun was satisfied.
The annoying thing called Gate was closed, and he had a core in his hand, it was a win-win situation.
Since all the goals he had come here were done, he had to get out and heal the woman immediately.
That's when someone came to him.
"Well, you did a very dangerous thing coming out of the wall without wearing protective clothing."
It was Do Jung-rak, the leader of the Gate Guard.
He was blown away by the sight of Alpha being slashed in two in one strike, but he frowned when he saw Chun Yeowun holding onto someone and not even wearing protective clothing.
“Haa.. Haaa..”.
Geum Oh-yeon's face was pale.
Worried that his condition might be bad, Do Jung-rak said.
"It looks like he was poisoned by air, are you okay?"
With that, he pulled something from his waist.
It was a mask, attached to a small oxygen tube.
"Use this."
"What's this?"
“Emergency oxygen supply if our helmet is damaged and we are exposed to toxic air. As far as I know, there are drugs that suppress toxins in the oxygen tank. This will suppress the symptoms for a while. ”
With the help of Do Jung-rak, Chun Yeowun's expression softened.
After entering this unknown world, he was the first to show kindness at their first meeting.
He's touched.
"Thank you."
Judging that the man had no ulterior motive, he stuffed the core into his pocket and took out an emergency oxygen mask.
And make Geum Oh-yeon wear it.
He put on the mask and pulled the ribbon behind his head, after taking a few breaths, he seemed to have calmed down.
Do Jung-rak smiled brightly because of it.
Chun Yeowun nodded.
'He seems like a good person.'
There is nothing wrong with having a relationship with such a person.
“I will never forget this help. May I know your name?”
Chun Yeowun could have excreted the toxic substance in the woman's body if her symptoms got worse, still, it was clear that she was receiving help in the midst of an urgent situation, so she asked her name.
“Haha, what is it all? A person's life depends on it, it's natural to help. I Do Jung-rak work as a Gatekeeper in Shenyang.”.
Then someone shows up and intervenes.
“I know this is disrespectful, but is it okay to interrupt the conversation? Leader Do?”
It was Moyong Geum.
Do Jung-rak frowned when she saw him interrupt the conversation.
They were both aware of each other, and were always in a competitive relationship when it came to defending against the Gate.
'What is he planning?'
In Do Jung-rak's eyes, Moyong Geum is a fighter and businessman who makes money.
To him, the man was clearly planning something.
Of course, his prediction was correct.
"I can't miss this opportunity."
Moyong Geum's eyes were fixed on Chun Yeowun, well, in the pocket where the core light shone.
He had interrupted the conversation to obtain the C-class core that Chun Yeowun had obtained.
'I won't be able to handle the Alpha myself, but I'm lucky Murim's soldiers got it and not the Gate Guard.'
When the Gate Guard gained the core, it turned into government property.
That way, he couldn't get it in any way.
In that case, the young man in front should be a Murim warrior, given Moyong Geum's current position in the Murim Association, he could offer money and position in exchange for the core.
“My young friends here have great skills. As a branch director of the Shenyang Murim Association. I want to praise this achievement with..”.
"Do Jung-rak. I'll reply you later.”
Cutting off his words, Chun Yeowun thanked the Gate Guard.
'This jerk?'
The face of Moyong Geum inside the helmet changed.
Do Jung-rak feels better about what happened and responds with a smile.
“Pay me for what? Relationships are all we need. Ha ha ha."
On the other hand, the displeasure Moyong Geum felt was increasing.
However, there were many eyes around him, so he could not attack.
Resist his emotions, he said.
“My young friend here seems to have good morality. I like…"
“Then I'll go.”
Chun Yeowun interrupted him once more.
The repressed emotions of Moyong Geum were released.
“This young man is quite rude. Don't you know who I am?”
Moyong Geum is a person with high self-esteem.
As chairman of the Yeon Company and branch director of the Murim Association, he thought that most of the Murim warriors were under him.
But as Chun Yeowun continued to ignore him, she could not help but get angry.
“Don't bother me. I'll find you when the time is right. Descendants Moyong.”
"What?"
Moyong Geum was surprised by Chun Yeowun's words.
This was the first time someone had spoken to him in such a manner.
Moreover, he had the title of chairman, yet he was called the Descendant of Moyong.
“Moyong Descendants? Ha! Look here young man, you're acting too far. Even in 21st century society there is a thing called respect in Murim. Do you think the rules between senior and junior are something to be taken lightly?”
As soon as he said that, he sent a message.
He could not speak loudly because there were other people around them.
[Don't be arrogant. Are you making fun of the Association?]
Chun Yeowun shook her head at the message.
Still, Moyong Geum's eyes turned furious.
[I'd like to have a pleasant conversation with you, but if you continue to act like this, I've got no choice but to revoke your registration as an Associate member.].
the piece!
“Kuak!”
At that moment, Chun Yeowun's hand hit his neck.
Moyong Geum, who was suddenly hit, grabbed her neck as she was pushed back.
“Kuak... Kuak... yo... you...”.
Thats odd.
He protected his body with energy, yet the attack was painful.
Shhh!
'Huh?'
At that moment, Chun Yeowun approached him and placed her hands on the helmet.
Perplexed, Moyong Geum tries to cut off the hand of Chun Yeowun holding his helmet with his sword, but
"I told you not to bother me."
Sir!
“Kak!”
Clangs!
Moyong Geum became paralyzed and the sword in his hand fell.
It felt like his head was spinning.
“Kuak... kuak..”.
Blood dripped from his eyes, nose, ears and mouth, he trembled and then fell onto the floor unconscious.
“Ah..”
A cry came out from Peng Neung-gyeom's mouth as he saw this.
He thought that the man was extremely skilled as he slashed at Alpha at once, but he far exceeded his expectations.
He subdued a Superior Master as if it was nothing.
'He's like a monster.'
He just looked like he was in his twenties, but he was amazing.
And in a place like this, Moyong Geum, the chairman of the Yeon Company and the branch director of the Murim Association was changed to be like this.
"Dad!'
Moyong Yi-sun, who had just arrived at the E-3 wall with about 30 Murim soldiers from the company, rushed in.
Moyong Yi-sun, who saw her father pass out after Chun Yeowun's little attack, shouted in anger.
"You motherfucker! How dare you touch her!”
Vise!
Moyong Yi-sun and the other warriors drew their swords.
Chun Yeowun, who was looking at them, threw away her gentle expression and looked at them with cold eyes.
'This…'
He thought that this would happen, and he also thought that the Peng family would intervene.
This is an expected situation.
That was.
"Stop!"
Someone intervened.
And that is.
“President Yeom Ki-seop?”
He is the president of Six Road Toys.
At the unexpected appearance of the unexpected person, Moyong Yi-sun and the others stopped.
Moyong Yi-sun, who was still angry, yelled at Ki-seop, president of a competitive company previously belonging to the same Association, and who interfered.
“President Yeom. This is not a situation you can get into. ”
Moyong Yi-sun thought that the man was trying to mediate between the parties involved.
However, Yeom Ki-seop's response was unexpected.
“If anyone wants to attack this guy, you have to pass me, Yeom Ki-seop.”
"W-What?"
