Chapter 454

a destroyed world (1)

Tyrant Dragon Tyronax.

That vicious being, who caused a storm whenever he got the chance due to his dirty personality, was a symbol of fear and disaster itself in this world..

It has an enormous size reminiscent of a mountain peak, two pairs of matching huge wings, and sharp horns and thorns sprouting from its head and other parts of its body..

The overwhelming physical force coming from the mass could easily crush anyone, and, befitting its dull-looking size, its physical abilities, such as sense and reaction speed, also reached the realm of the transcendent..

The scales on its entire body were made of the hardest material in the world, and its enormous vitality and resistance were at a level that could not even be imagined..

Even the wounds suffered while dealing with that being could not be recovered by any means.···.

It is no wonder that so many warriors have tried to slay the tyrant dragon for world peace but have perished in vain..

If the intelligence level wasn't that of a slightly smarter animal, the challenge itself would have been impossible in the first place..

Predators literally sit atop the ecosystem.

And that tyrant dragon, Tyronax, is now···.

Cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure!

His entire body was covered in wounds, and he was thrown down the mountainside, causing a huge landslide..

[Wow——!]

The tyrant dragon stuck its head out from the collapsed mound of dirt and roared wildly..

Crying sounds filled with emotions such as anger, pain, irritation, and frustration..

[Ho? Can you endure this? As expected, he's a notorious guy, so he's different from the others before him. It would be a great material. I thought this world was a mess, but I guess I can be quite satisfied with this..]

But when Hans faced him, he was able to recognize another emotion contained within it..

A vivid fear that cannot be hidden even with wild ferocity.

[Hehehe, be quiet. Because I will make you more free. Your compatriots will also come and wait for you first, so you won’t be lonely..]

A blazing black sun rose from one of his upraised hands..

An artificial sun that spreads darkness as opposed to the real sun that spreads light on the world..

As the energy spread in all directions, all surrounding living things within the area of ​​influence withered away in an instant..

And right after that.

Kwaaaaang——!

A large earthquake shook the ground in the area, accompanied by a pillar of black fire rising high into the sky..

The destructive power is so great that a large mountain can evaporate entirely..

The earthquake that occurred as a result caused pain in distant cities, but Hans, who was already preoccupied with the sturdy creature in front of him, did not have the presence of mind left to pay attention to that..

[Are you still breathing after being hit by this? indeed···.]

He nodded slowly, his eyes flashing..

Expectations were high as to what kind of masterpiece would be created if that monster-like body, which was a special product of this dimension, was turned into undead..

[Oh oh oh——!]

[Kyaaaaa——!]

At that moment, two huge dragon skulls emerged from the shadow of the tyrant dragon struggling below and bit the dragon's leash at once..

Three large bodies tangled together in an instant and rolling around on the floor..

It didn't end there.

[Hunting must be done without causing as much damage as possible..]

[I'm almost dead. I can finish it soon.]

The executives of the Immortal Army who appeared afterwards began to attach themselves to the body of the tyrant dragon one by one..

In order to kill him clearly and cleanly and make him their comrade..

Unlike dragons from other dimensions, they were like animals without reason, so there was no need to feel remorse..

From what I gathered from Olivia, they were bomb-like people who only caused trouble everywhere..

‘Since I haven't had any income so far, I need to take care of something like this. It's been a while since Harley took care of herself..’

Some time has passed since we left Devore..

In the meantime, Hans had passed through two more dimensions and arrived at the fourth, Milleria, but since the first time, he had never discovered any suspicious traces of the Buncheonhoeju..

Compared to previous worlds that were on the brink of world destruction, we could only face ordinary troubles like this tyrant dragon, which were trivial..

‘Well, if you think about it, this isn’t even a closed dimension yet. There was something suspicious about the process of analyzing the memories, so I visited first..’

Looking at the circumstances, it looks like I made a mistake again this time..

It wasn't strange because once you become a transcendental person, the probability of memory loss in the process of breaking through the mental barrier is very high..

Of course this situation wasn't that bad.

On the contrary, it would have been more difficult if there had been an arrangement made by Beoncheonhoeju wherever he went..

Just finding out that the guy's influence wasn't that big could be seen as a harvest in its own way..

‘Still, I'm on a business trip to collect information, so it's a bit weird to keep making nonsense of it..’

It was a decision made based on the reasonable belief that there would be more traces left in a place where the operation was in progress than in a world where everything had already ended..

In order to achieve my goal, I felt like I had to go to a more likely level as my next destination..

‘Now that I think about it, there happens to be one suitable closed dimension left. Based on the information collected from memory, there is a very high probability that there was external intervention here.···.’

When Hans was lost in his thoughts,.

Ugh—

A subtle vibrating sound came from within his arms..

He glanced at his subordinates who were in the midst of dismantling Tyronax, the tyrant dragon, and collecting the loot, and took something out of his pocket..

Ugh—

Something that reacts more violently when it comes out..

It was a pendant with a single ornament attached to the end of a thin chain made of a rare metal..

Of course, the ornament that Hans possessed was by no means an ordinary item..

[Oh my, I still haven't come to my senses..]

Hans lifted the pendant and held it in front of his eye socket and shook his head with a small lament..

A jewel hanging at the end of a chain with a glowing gaze—looking straight into the grotesque-looking eyeballs..

Grinding—

A black thunderbolt flickered at his fingertips..

Without any hesitation, he placed his finger on the moving eyeball and crushed it..

My eyeballs kept twitching and squirming to escape his grasp, but of course it was only a pointless resistance..

‘That's amazing. How can you resist to the end like this even though your existing ego has already been completely crushed? Is it because of residual thoughts left in the body?.’

Indeed, he was a being of such high rank that he was called the Great Devil..

In addition, the strong obsession with life that was unleashed at the last moment must have made him like this..

‘Although I also benefited greatly from it. If it weren't for that, we wouldn't have been able to make something like this..’

Hans, who had become calm again, held the pendant in his hand and nodded in satisfaction..

Wasn't it thanks to this special item that he was able to use the 'Infinite Archdemon' powers on McCarthy??

He is both a necromancer and the pinnacle of warlocks..

As long as the materials and conditions were met, it was not that difficult to make a 'demon-infused weapon' by mobilizing all mysteries such as necromancy, demonic contracts, and magic tool production..

‘Of course, if several coincidences and luck had not been on our side, it would have been impossible to create an object with this much power..’

Anyway, the Great Demon of Infinity was also a being who rose to demigod status..

Considering the situation in Devore, where there was no being who could be called a god, unlike in the normal dimension, perhaps because the main character had the tendency to be an evil god, it is reasonable to say that the demons, each in charge of a single 'concept', were in a kind of god-like position. place.

It might be a normal deteriorated version, but it couldn't have been that easy to make an item that contained that much power without loss..

‘If the true body of the devil, who was in a sort of brain-dead state and did not completely die even after being sentenced to death, was obtained... I wouldn't have thought to use it either..’

Even after going through all the processes to complete the product, it was impossible to make multiple pieces because of the huge load that would continue to occur..

Even Hans can maintain just one of these, so what more can I say?.

‘I want to make more anyway, but I can't because I don't have the ingredients..’

However, since I have the know-how I gained through this work, I will be able to proceed more easily the next time a similar situation arises..

The first time was purely accidental, but once you succeed, the second time gets easier..

If we did more research in the process, the problem of only being able to use one might have been improved..

‘If that happens.’

When Hans was looking at the pendant.

[King... Everything has been sorted out.···.]

[hmm.]

Hans calmly looked around at the sound of a voice coming from a short distance away..

The scenery around him had already changed to the extent that it was no longer visible from its original appearance..

Aside from the fact that the whole place is a mess, what more can be said when only a deep pit remains where the large mountain used to be??

‘···As time passes and the rain accumulates, that place will become a lake. It was a bit frustrating because it was so crowded with mountains, but wouldn’t it be perfect to have an open lake??’

Of course, Hans didn't really care..

They just shamelessly rationalize themselves and ignore the scene of cruel destruction of nature..

‘Then, let’s move on to the next step. Because I've gathered quite a few materials that can be used for the final use of the Tyrant Dragon..’

No matter how harmful a bird it is, you, as an outsider, cannot make it extinct at will..

It would have been a waste of time to try harder when I had enough to be reasonably satisfied..

And so the visitor from this world disappeared as quietly as he had arrived..

The next destination we set in advance, a world that was declared closed a long time ago like Devore.—.

‘With ‘Cosiyas’.

***

After the stranger left.

The incident that occurred in Jinji became known to the world only after a long time had passed..

The tyrant dragon Tyronax's notoriety was so high that no one tried to get close to it even after seeing the pillar of fire and earthquake, which were clearly abnormal conditions..

What people were able to realize, even if it was too late, was that there was an unheard-of lake, which had not been recorded in any records for a long time, sitting in the place where the mountain used to be..

The only thing that happened was that not only the tyrant dragon but also several infamous dragon species disappeared all at once..

And that story was passed down to future generations as the legend and mystery of Milleria..

‘With the name ‘Dragon Lake’.

***

[···Huh?]

The moment you cross the dimensional gate.

The first emotion Hans felt was embarrassment..

‘What is this place??’

For a moment, I wondered if I was in the wrong place..

It had to be that way..

Because everything about this place was so different from the memory of the dimension he originally wanted to go to..

The Cosiyas dimension was a dimension belonging to the so-called ‘civilized world’..

Science and technology were at a similar level to Earth, but with the development of magic engineering, things that could be called over-technology by Earth standards were closely embedded in daily life..

But what I see now is···.

[···It's already a dead world.]

Simply saying it was a ruin was not enough..

The ground was full of broken concrete debris and all kinds of scrap metal, and huge cracks with no visible bottom were cracking like rice fields in a drought..

It was definitely land, but in reality it was almost like an island..

‘Even the magma is cooling down.’

「He looked at the bottom of the crack through the “Eye of the Abyss” and shook his head..

And immediately flew high into the sky and took in the entire world..

‘The sea level is too low. At least everything has rotted away.’

The sea, the cradle of life, looked like that, but there was no way there could be any living creatures in it..

Instead of diluted oxygen, the atmosphere is full of toxic substances, radiation hitting directly, a planet losing its warmth and cooling down, etc..

Hans used his specialty of detecting the living and stretched his senses as much as possible, but he only confirmed once again that not only animals and plants, but also microorganisms, including bacteria, had been completely wiped out..

[I can't feel any energy in the space..]

It reminded me of the mysterious barren land of Earth... No, it was much more serious than that..

Perhaps because something that was different from what was originally there had been squeezed out, the world reflected in his eyes had become miserable and dried out..

Does it make sense that even when the entire world is dying, you can't even feel the 'energy of death'??

Hans' body, which was flying quickly and looking at the ground, stopped in midair..

Then he slowly raised his head and looked up at the sky..

‘This world has already ended.’

The sky is broken, broken and completely shattered.

What existed beyond was not the universe..

Nothing).

A space of literally nothing was swallowing up this entire destroyed world..

‘There is no possibility of saving this world. Well, no one survived to begin with..’

This place was nothing more or less than a ‘ruined world’..

Now that will be the only word to describe this place in Cosiyas..

Then he suddenly realized one thing..

I realized that the system message that always came to mind every time I entered another world was not displayed just a moment ago..

‘Has the world's manager, the main god, and the Akasha system, which encompasses all dimensions, already abandoned this world?.’

He quickly cut through the air again and began scanning the entire world..

It must have been Beoncheonhoeju that made this place like this..

I had to do anything to get even the smallest clue as my original goal was..

Because I don't know when I'll be able to come to a world like this next time..

Then at some point.

His body, which had been spreading energy as widely as possible, stopped..

[This is···.]

I checked again and it was definitely true..

A faint sense of vitality.

Plus, this reaction is definitely···.

‘human being? Were humans still alive at this point? how?’

It didn't matter since he was already dead, but even awakened people who are protected by the system won't be able to last long if they come here..

But being alive until the end in this worst situation?···.

Hans' body shot like lightning..

To the place where the only survivor of this destroyed world is..
