Chapter 346
Jason, a male cultist with deer antlers on his head, leaps into the air. The black ax in his right hand moves with an eerie light.
The target of the ax blade is Coldblood in front. This is Penelope, a reptilian person who is taller than Cult and has a mature appearance.
She extended her hand toward Jason. A small machine resembling a spider protruded from inside the sleeve.
The identity of the machine is ‘Blood River’. A mechanical vampire flies in to bite Jason’s neck.
Suddenly, the male cult member frowns as Star Union’s only weapon flies towards him. The ax changed direction and hit the Blood River.
But now it’s a trick from the opponent. The Blood River, which was split exactly in half, was empty. What Coldblood threw was a replica.
Penelope, deceiving her enemy, launched herself backwards. As she was doing somersaults, she suddenly held a remote control that resembled a lighter in her hand. When the button was pressed, the sand exploded and a real Blood River sprang up.
If Jason had been alone, he would have been on the defensive here. But he has friends.
A rainbow-colored bullet flew from somewhere and hit the Blood River. Just like Jason, Cynthia, a female cult member with deer antlers, is supporting him from the rear.
After neutralizing the Blood River with Color Bomb, she created a purple spear and threw it at Penelope.
Pain Spear, which weakens the opponent’s healing effect, flies towards Coldblood’s legs. Penelope twisted her body in the air and narrowly avoided the spear of pain.
As she lands on the ground, Jason lunges at her like lightning. The black ax ‘Condemn’ is plunged into Coldblood’s chest. The sound of cutting air was heard, and the front of Penelope’s clothes was slightly cut.
Jason didn’t stop there, but slightly squeezed and unclenched his left hand. Then Penelope’s body flinched. It was either gravity control or bondage, but it was impossible to confirm.
Cynthia did not miss the opportunity to have her colleague tie up her enemy. She blows out a color bomb.
It was truly a moment of desperation. At that time, a new variable appeared on the battlefield.
A short Coldblood jumped out of a nearby building. The guy threw something in front of the trajectory where the colored bomb was flying. A purple shield emerged from the hexagon-shaped plate and collided with the energy bullet.
At the moment of impact, the plate was reduced to powder, but at the same time, the trajectory of the color bomb was also distorted. Coldblood achieved his intended goal, and Isabel took out a pistol from her arms.
It was not a futuristic design like a plasma pistol or laser pistol, but a hand-fired pistol that would have been used during the Renaissance. Additionally, the entire gun was made of jewels, making it more of an ornament than a weapon.
An old-fashioned pistol in the space age. Even if you shoot Jason, it won’t even make a scratch on the Black Gallagon’s armor he’s wearing.
However, when Jason saw that Isabel had pulled out a gun, he quickly rolled to the side to avoid it. Immediately after that, a gun clicked and the floor Jason was standing on turned to mushy mud.
‘It’s the power of Vortex One.’
That gun that Isabel took out looks like something she received through a contract with Vortex One. Like the curved sword he used to summon the ‘Ring of Agony’.
Thanks to Jason’s escape, Penelope was freed from her restraints and moved to Isabelle’s side.
“…are you okay?”
“Thanks to. thank you.”
They were twins in the real world, but here they look completely different.
There was a clear difference between Penelope, who was tall and had a mature body, and standing next to Isabelle, who had a small body. Also, unlike Isabel, who has blue eyes and scales, Penelope has red eyes and white scales.
From the looks of it, he looked like a completely stranger, but not as much as his eyes. Seeing how they understood each other just by looking at each other, their feelings seemed to be no different from when they were twins.
“Damn Vortex One.”
“Be careful. Jason. “It would be best not to get hit without my protection.”
“I know.”
Jason and Cynthia also clung close to each other like twin sisters. When Cynthia raised her hand, a hemispherical protective shield surrounded them.
The lull that occurred after the battle ended quickly ended. Both sides entered into battle again.
I thought as I watched the four people fighting.
‘I remember where Jason and Cynthia are.’
What kind of perks do they have?
‘If you fight without knowing it, it can be quite threatening…’
Isabel has the ability to read other people’s information. Since Isabel’s side has the upper hand in information, they will not be easily defeated.
‘And I can guess what Penelope’s perk is.’
When fighting me, Jason summoned a golden figure to fight. That ability is a privilege that he stole by capturing the Cold Blood Ranker. This ability is the source of my ‘color of the abyss.’
The ranker who was killed by the bastard and had her privileges taken away was Penelope.
‘If you have a perk similar to the color of the abyss, I don’t think you will lose easily.’
In my case, the colors of the abyss only affect organic matter, but her perks may not have such limitations. If that were the case, then the cult warships filling the sky wouldn’t mean much.
‘Besides, to rob the privilege, you would have to take his own life.’
If the imperial carriers floating in the sky use Cosmic Bolts, Jason will easily win, but then the perk cannot be taken away. However, the Twin Coldbloods are not easy to catch directly.
‘But the fact that we still won….’
That there is still something I don’t know.
Meanwhile, Penelope, who was engaged in close combat with Jason, used her special privilege.
Her eyes, which resembled those of a snake, changed from red to gold, and her body secreted a golden liquid that looked like melted gold. The golden liquid melted the clothes she was wearing, leaving her naked in an instant.
Cynthia, who saw this, quickly moved using the levitation technique and stood in front of Jason.
The liquid that flowed from Penelope’s body gathered in the air as if it had an ego and became a large bubble. The bubble, inflated to its limit, exploded above the enemies’ heads.
Thanks to deploying the shield at the right time, Jason was safe.
“Tch.”
Penelope, who had failed in the surprise attack, clicked her tongue slightly. As if in response, Jason, who was inside the shield, opened his palm. Five-colored rays of light emanated from his palm.
Penelope saw that and quickly raised her hand. Then, golden bubbles scattered in the air gathered together and covered her naked body. The color bomb strengthened by the special effect was blocked by the golden liquid that protected its owner.
Isabel, behind Penelope, pulled out a pistol containing the power of Vortex One. The point where the gun is aimed is the floor where Jason and Cynthia are standing. The floor, which had previously turned into mud, now turned into a sandy quagmire.
Cynthia grabbed Jason and used the levitation technique to fly upward. Penelope’s golden bubbles followed behind them, but they were all blocked by the hemispherical shield.
In that state, Jason stretched out his hand on Penelope’s head. The floor around Penelope cracked, probably because gravity control was used.
Penelope, protected by the golden liquid, seemed fine, but Isabelle was not. She quickly distanced herself from Penelope.
Jason smiled even though the attack didn’t work. As if he wanted this situation.
“Isabel!”
Penelope, seeing the corners of Jason’s mouth rise, urgently shouted. At that moment, a small-sized projectile flew from the sky.
The object flew at a speed so fast that even my senses could not detect it and tried to pierce Isabelle’s abdomen. This would probably have happened if Penelope hadn’t pushed Isabel away in a hurry.
“Whoa?!”
“sister!”
Penelope, whose abdomen was pierced by a projectile, vomits blood and collapses.
Isabel quickly pulled out the cylindrical object she was wearing around her waist and threw it onto the sand. A crunching sound was heard, and a red mist rose from the object.
“Fuck! “It’s Red Mist’s hallucinogenic pheromone!”
“Chloe! “Shoot now!”
“shit! “It’s mine, so don’t shoot!”
Immediately after Cynthia shouted, a small projectile flew from afar and narrowly grazed Isabelle’s neck in the fog.
‘What about that?’
The projectile that tore through the sky blue scales and fell to the ground was a bullet. The warhead was made of a metal similar to obsidian, and the rest was made of golden metal.
‘…It’s a bullet made of star pearl and nova metal.’
Nova Metal is a rare metal used to make strategic weapons such as Raijin or Imperial Mothership. Starpearl is a much rarer metal than that.
The only people who can turn such metals into bullets and use them are rankers.
‘It was 3 to 2.’
Outside the battlefield, an unidentified enemy is targeting the twins.
“sister! Wake!”
“…cough.”
While the red fog covered Isabelle, she helped Penelope, who had fallen. As they run away, the surrounding scenery becomes blurry like fog.
Before I knew it, I was inside a dark building. When I saw the collapsed walls and the holey ceiling, it seemed like it wasn’t far from where the fight took place.
Inside the collapsed building, Isabelle was checking Penelope’s wounds. The man’s hands and hem of his clothes were stained with golden liquid and blood.
It was all flowing out of Penelope’s abdomen.
“Because of me, my sister…”
The panicked girl tried to stop the bleeding from her sister’s wounds. But Penelope’s condition only worsened.
“Please God, not just my sister! Please, just my sister….”
“Isabel.”
“Gye, contract! Even if we make a contract…”
“Isabel!”
“!”
Isabel paused as the dying Penelope raised her voice. She stroked her brother’s blue-scaled face with her bloody hands.
“There are still people we have to protect. “They won’t survive if we’re both gone.”
“sister! My sister is more important to me! “I would rather lose my sister…!”
“You don’t think so. I know.”
Even as blood continued to ooze from her abdomen, her voice did not waver at all. When I just heard the voice, it seemed perfectly fine, but it wasn’t.
Now she is delivering a final message to her only family.
“Protect them.”
“….”
“go. hurry. “They will be here soon.”
After saying that, she stood up. The red eyes turned golden again, and the scales of the entire body were covered with golden liquid.
“sister…!”
“go!”
Isabel had no choice but to follow her sister’s roaring screams.
A loud explosion is heard behind the guy running out of the building. As Jason and Penelope’s shouts intertwined, the scene before my eyes changed.
Isabelle, covered in wounds, is kneeling in a ruined alley. The Antler Cult was looking down at him with an arrogant attitude.
“You bothered us with your pointless resistance.”
“…Stop talking bullshit and kill me.”
With a look of annoyance on her face, she packed the pistol powered by Vortex One in her arms.
“Kill me? Are you going to abandon your sister and die?”
“…What do you mean?”
When Isabelle asked, Cynthia opened her mouth as if to be kind.
“Your older sister, 18th ranked Penelope, was only suppressed, not killed.”
“!”
“Of course it depends on what you do.”
Cynthia bent down and brought her face closer to Isabelle. And he whispered softly like a tempting snake.
“Please join me, or rather, our return group. Then your sister will live.”
“….”
Isabelle, who was looking at Cynthia with a blank expression, eventually lowered her head.
That was the end of Isabelle’s memories.
When I opened my eyes, a familiar-looking crypt greeted me.
Overall, it was similar to the crypt that Isabel had built in Berzan 02 to hide Coldblood slaves.
However, her memories were sitting where the mud wall should have been. As if running a projector, the unfortunate events she had experienced were being played over and over again on the surface of the wall.
In the middle of the movie theater of memories, Isabel was sitting alone.
