#619. Because it’s what you have to do.

The Continental Guard.

A secret society that believes that Indians are the people chosen by the spirits and should rule and lead mankind.

It was only now considered as a political opponent against the Golden Dragon clan, but that is only a modern story.

before the Civil War.

In particular, the Continental Guardians hundreds of years ago were advocating quite extreme ideology and racism.

Therefore, after the death of the seven dragons, he took the lead in hunting and enslaving white people, and was considered a feared target by white people in North America.

However, the Continental Guardians were in trouble.

In the first place, their core members, elementals and shamans, were in their golden age.

Resigned to the Silver Age.

Ruled in the Bronze Age.

After being pushed back to the Age of Heroes.

Elementalists and shamans have decreased as time went by, and the influence of the Continental Guardians has weakened as well.

The Continental Guardians, who were fighting with the Golden Dragon clan over the North American continent, had no choice but to feel inadequate in many ways.

That’s why the Continental Guardian tried hard.

find ancient artifacts.

Persuading the fairy queen.

Developing new weapons, etc.

All kinds of measures were taken to restore the glory of the golden age of the past.

One of them is the [Artificial Elementalist Project].

Originally, the talent of an elemental magician.

It was a plan to mass-produce elemental magicians by granting them acquired or having them inherited through bloodlines.

As a result, it was a truly absurd plan in that it aimed to turn all Indians into elementals.

It was a project that the Continental Guardian did not see much possibility.

However, even the aiming bullet misses, and a frog gets hit by a stone thrown with eyes closed.

All sorts of ancient artifacts.

A spell studied by Unmyeongsa.

Even the help of an ancient spirit.

At the end of all efforts, the [Artificial Elementalist Project] has achieved unexpected results.

It was a success in revealing the qualities of a spirit sage and a different level from ordinary spirit sages in the originally ordinary test subject.

At this unexpected achievement, the Continental Guardians cheered that they could finally bring back the Golden Age.

In addition, he devoted himself to further research and created numerous specimens.

two problems.

One is that they weren’t an organization that was crazy enough to use people as test subjects, like the Dark Dawn Society.

Another was that the project was too successful.

…to the extent that the test subjects controlled the spirits of the laboratory and made a collective escape.

As a result, the Continental Guardians lost their research data, which they had invested a great deal of money and manpower into, and even lost all of the test subjects.

That was the beginning of the tragedy.

The result of all sorts of experiments.

The test subjects, whose intelligence also increased, instinctively judged.

Even though he may have run away right now, if a pursuer appears someday, he might be caught in the laboratory again and suffer terrible things.

That’s why the test subjects attacked the enemy according to their survival instinct.

That is the spirit team.

As an experiment by the Continental Guardians.

All kinds of animals that came to communicate with spirits.

It was a massacre caused by spirit beasts.

It would have been fortunate if only the Continental Guardians had been slaughtered.

However, unlike humans, the spirit beasts, which do not discriminate against race or status, attacked all mankind indiscriminately.

As a result, millions of lives were lost.

It was a terrifying disaster that could have annihilated not only the North American continent, but the entire human race by runaway spirits.

One of the good things is the bad luck.

It is said that there was a limon in the human race.

Unable to stand by the indiscriminate slaughter, Limon defeated the spirits who sided with animals instead of humans.

And they found and subdued even the spirit beast, who was the culprit of the spirit uprising, and disbanded the Continental Guardian.

The world has regained peace.

The spirit water disappeared.

However, there was a fact that even Limon, who ended the spirit uprising, did not know.

At that time, even though all the spirits were exterminated, the eggs and seeds left behind by the spirits did not disappear.

Of course, it’s just a seed.

Even if you inherited the bloodline.

Descendants who did not inherit the spirit beast’s talent were scattered as ordinary animals. And among them

, some animals with a very special lineage were captured by humans and put on display in foreign zoos

…

Thanks to.

Suddenly, a blue bird rides on a giant robot.

Yuna-kyung blinked her eyes.

what happened

Except that she was a human, she was nothing more than an ordinary reincarnated person, so she couldn’t know.

“It wasn’t enough to drive the Master crazy, to bring the Spirit Beast to this Amazon…! Are you really going to destroy the world!”

Vlad trembled.

Of course, he had no choice but to think of it as the secret weapon of the Seven Dragons.

But Charlotte wasn’t offended by the false accusation.

Ever since I saw Yuna-kyung riding the cleaning spirit like a car, I had vague doubts even if I wasn’t sure.

No matter how much it is, it’s not enough to keep a spirit beast as a pet, so it’s not enough to bring it to the Amazon.

It was an absurd thing that was only possible because it was Limon.

Beep.

[Press this button? Like this?]

In the meantime, Yuna-kyung followed the announcement sound and lifted one wing and pressed the button in front.

As a result, it appeared that the muzzle protruded from the two arms of the giant robot and fired bullets made of light.

Directly towards the running repair.

Do-do-do-do-doo!

As bullets flew at a speed close to light, each bullet carrying tremendous destructive power, plowing the ground.

The running repairman jumped and evaded the bullet, but couldn’t hide his embarrassment.

It was, of course, the first time being attacked by a spirit.

The existence of the spirit beast, which he had never seen before, was confusing the running eagle.

“Let the brothers and sisters fight! That cataclysmic beast must be dealt with on the spot!”

dismissal.

But that’s only the first time.

It seems to tell me not to run away, but to fight.

At the same time as Vlad’s command, Suri flinched at the pain that began to rise from the tattoo on her abdomen.

And at the end of the talk, she swung a dagger against a giant robot made of countless spirits.

A girl who is human but raised as a spirit beast.

A blue bird who was a human in his previous life, even though he was an animal.

The fight between the two heretics, unprecedented in history, began with a roar.

* * *

Kung Koo Goo!

Meanwhile at that time.

Maia and the Venomous Dragons, who had fled with Limon, continued to run through the jungle.

Actually, if it’s original.

Maia should have left this Amazon long ago.

That was the reason Charlotte deliberately sent the five Spirit Squadrons with them.

Even so, the reason they still ran through the jungle was in the flash of light soaring with a roar from behind.

‘Already this far…!’

Charlotte mobilized all the Golden Dragons to hold the sword master’s feet.

The five spirit squadrons, which were difficult to deal with even for a class master or a major supply player, were fighting fiercely to make the most of their time.

Even so, it was a while to bite my lips at the distance with the pursuer that was getting smaller and smaller.

Arbella opened her mouth with determination.

“Princess, I and the Venomous Dragon will serve as bait to lure them out. So go first.”

Maia, who was leading the way with Limon in her arms, stopped when she heard that.

And he stared at Arbella with sharp eyes.

“Don’t be silly. Even if you and the Venomous Dragons become bait, they will soon realize the truth and come after me.”

“Unless we hold them by their feet.”

“…yes, it’s only a little bit of time to earn.”

“But even I know that the princess needs even a little bit of time right now.”

“…”

Maia was silent as Arbella pointed out as she looked at Limon, who was cradled like a corpse in her arms.

for the past two days.

While constantly running away from pursuit, Maia used all her medical skills to check Limon’s condition.

that’s why i knew

Even if your heart is cut.

that he is still alive.

And how precarious the situation is right now.

Until now, she had been using her psionic biomanipulation to buy time while running away.

But that too is now at its limit.

If we don’t take action in earnest, it will reach the point where we can’t turn back.

I did need time to somehow properly treat him.

“If you need some time, it’s enough for me and the poison dragon team to kill all the pursuers.”

“Don’t say things you don’t believe in yourself. You know how reckless that is.”

There is even a Sword Master on the other side of the jungle right now.

Even though Charlotte was fighting, it was dangerous to be tied up as long as you didn’t know when she would be shaken off and the Sword Spirit and the Sword Demon would appear.

I don’t know if I can resonate with the psionic and subdue the pursuers at once with the power of Yonghwa…

“Especially in that state where Yonghwa can’t even do it.”

“….”

Maybe it’s because he got stabbed in the middle.

Arbella smiled bitterly at Maia, who listened to her words and kept her mouth shut.

During the previous war with the monster lord Gula, Maia’s lifespan, which was already short, was almost exhausted by being forcibly converted and runaway.

Until now, he had endured with the power of the dragon psionic contained in the sculpture he received from Limon.

However, that psionic was already almost exhausted and was barely sustaining life.

In the end, it wasn’t that Maia wouldn’t do Yonghwa, it was that she couldn’t.

moment of melting.

because she will die

Especially since Limon, the only one who can save her, is now in this state.

“princess. Even though I’m halfway compared to the others, I’m also a close aide to the princess.”

because you know that

Arbella said seriously.

“So please let me do my job.”

“…You mean permission to lay down your life?”

“This is what Barbara and I are supposed to do as the princess’s entourage.”

“…”

Dying for the princess is the duty and right of an aide.

Even if Barbara was here, she would have made the same choice as herself.

Looking at Arbella, who spoke without wavering, Maia shook her green eyes, which had always been gloomy.

It was because the figure of a woman overlapped over the face of Arbella, who spoke resolutely.

‘…Carla.’

Originally, he was his sidekick.

He sacrificed his life for allegiance.

After thinking about the mother of the twin sisters and lamenting inside, Maia finally opened her mouth quietly.

“Arbella.”

“Your princess.”

“Become a bait with the Venomous Dragons and lure them in. And buy time by any means.”

Of course Maia knew.

No matter how dangerous the venomous dragons were, even if they were the strongest armed force of the green dragon clan, it was too dangerous to delay against the pursuers.

The more time passes, the greater the risk Arbella and others must bear, and the more their lives are in danger.

“Never die instead.”

Even so, he allowed death.

He always taught and cared for himself and Barbara even though he was strict with them.

At the command of the beloved princess, Arbella smiled and bowed her head.

“If that is the princess’s wish.”
