Chapter 442:
As early as in the past, Cheng Jin-Woo had confirmed the skills engraved on the rune stone through the system.
There was clearly a dragon's power in it.
But he's never shown any interest in runes all this time.
The reason is that the skill shortcomings of Kamish Runestone are too obvious.
That is a power that I don't need for myself.
But... the situation is different now.
After arriving at the ninth basement level of the Hunter Management Bureau, two people stood in front of the tempered glass box that kept the runes.
Cheng Jin-Woo is not using the system, but his own eyes and senses to read the skills contained in the runes.
Astonishingly powerful skills as he remembered.
But in this situation, the terrifying power contained in it is enough to offset its shortcomings.
Plop, plop.
Some unstoppable surges fermented in Cheng Jin-Woo's heart.
On the other hand, David looked at the Rune Stone quietly, and then he asked.
"Hunter, did you say...that being called the Ruler sent the monsters to Earth?"
"yes."
"Then what are these runes on the bodies of monsters?"
"It is a gift given to humans by the ruler in order to allow humans to hunt monsters more effectively."
The rulers let the magic power take root in this land through the portal; through the fierce battle between humans and monsters, the magic power can be transmitted to the earth faster.
Their goal from beginning to end is only one
Strengthen this world, in order to meet the coming war.
When the monster dies, the stone implanted in the monster's body can automatically seal up the ability of the monster.
"Runite" is the care given by the rulers to help human beings survive.
Human sacrifice... is to them only a side effect of the process.
In this way, Kamish's power is also stored.
What Seong Jin-Woo holds now is the dragon's ability that can be the key to counterattack.
David stared nervously at Cheng Jin-Woo who was holding the rune stone tightly, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty.
"Really... As long as there is that, can the invasion of monsters be stopped?"
"Try it and see."
Even at this moment, the Dragon Emperor is leading the legion to smash everything in this world.
The legion in charge of destruction keeps on advancing, and on.
It is thanks to the rulers who have strengthened the world with magic power that they can drag the advance speed of the army to this level, but this is only temporary.
The earth will soon be burned to nothingness.
Can't just stand by and watch the world get destroyed?
Cheng Jin-Woo has the power of the Shadow King that makes them feel frightened and scared.
Even if it is a despicable sneak attack, let them know how the power they want to block will be used after the power falls into the hands of the "prey".
"I'll do my best."
The will in Seong Jin-Woo's eyes made David's heart pound.
Cheng Xiao-Woo clearly knew how powerful the enemy was, but Cheng Xiao-Woo was unwilling to avoid the battle.
In front of Cheng Jin-Woo like this, David realized how chilling he was who only wanted to escape.
'You still want to go where your daughter is? You idiot...'
David was instantly ashamed.
Finally, an idea came to him.
No matter what the final result will be, he hopes to see the end of this battle.
"Although it's embarrassing...but I beg you. Please stop those guys, stop those monsters."
He bowed deeply towards Cheng Jin-Woo, and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.
maybe.
What he really wanted to avoid was not the fate that he might fall into the hands of monsters.
Instead, as the leader of the Hunter Management Bureau in M country, he should be at the forefront to lead the people and monsters to fight-
He did not have the courage to see his countrymen ravaged at the hands of monsters.
So even straw is fine.
A thread is fine too.
If there was a glimmer of hope—he was willing to try anything.
Countless emotions are intertwined, and finally pooled into tears.
Seeing the emotion he showed, Cheng Jin-Woo silently put his hand on his shoulder.
"..."
At this moment, Cheng Jin-Woo's outstretched hand made David feel more at ease than any words.
David belatedly wiped away the tears.
"I've shown you something ugly. I'm sorry, Hunter Cheng."
After the director calmed down, Cheng Jin-Woo opened his mouth to speak.
"I have another matter. I want you to help me find someone."
***
Cheng Jin-Woo followed the director into an apartment near the Hunter Management Bureau headquarters.
"Have you been taking care of it in such a close place?
"Hunter Authority believes in putting what needs to be protected within reach."
Perhaps because the destination floor is not very high, the director chose to take the stairs.
When his back started to sweat a little, the chief who stopped at the door of a certain room on the fourth floor turned his head and looked at Cheng Jin-Woo.
"It's here."
Cheng Jin-Woo nodded.
Knock, knock.
Instead of ringing the doorbell, the Chief knocked lightly twice, as if it were some kind of signal.
After a moment of silence.
After confirming the director's face from inside, the VIPs slowly opened the door for him.
The important official frowned slightly because of the director's pungent alcohol smell.
"...Director?"
A few seconds later, he later found Cheng Xiaoyu standing next to the director, which made the important staff vigilant all of a sudden.
"......!"
Fortunately, the dignitaries did not draw their guns like they did when they first saw them.
When the VIP saw some unfamiliar visitors, he instinctively put his hands on his waist. As if recalling the memory of that time, the VIP showed a panicked expression.
"Hunter Seong Jin-Woo...?"
Before he had time to think about why the strongest hunter in the world came to visit, Director David brought Cheng Jin-Woo into the house.
Subsequently, other dignitaries waiting inside also greeted the chief.
"Where's Madam?"
"Inside a uh!"
He had the same reaction as the VIP who opened the door. After seeing Cheng Jin-Woo, the VIP was also shocked.
"Director, this...?"
"Hunter Cheng said he wanted to see his wife, so I brought him here. Can you tell your wife that Hunter Jin-Woo is visiting?"
"…...OK."
At this moment, a calm female voice sounded in the room.
"I didn't expect someone to come to me during this period."
The madam seemed to be waiting for the two of them. Before the important officials informed, the madam came out.
It was Mrs. Norma Saino that Cheng Jin-Woo was looking for.
Although she is currently only active in raising the hunter's power beyond the limit, she was a woman who was a psyker in the past.
Cheng Jin-Woo took a step forward and bowed solemnly to the old lady.
"Please come in."
Mrs. Seinuo led Cheng Jin-Woo to the back room.
David standing behind also wanted to follow Cheng Jin-Woo in, but the lady stopped him gently.
"Hunter Seong Jin-Woo might want to have a quiet chat. Right?"
The lady turned around and asked Cheng Jin-Woo, and Cheng Jin-Woo nodded.
As Madam said, David immediately understood the meaning.
When he coughed twice and slowly straightened his clothes, the door closed lightly.
After Madam Sino closed the door completely, she walked slowly towards Cheng Jin-Woo who was waiting for her.
But the moment she looked carefully at Cheng Jin-Woo, she couldn't stop exclaiming.
"Oh my God!"
It's completely different from the last time we met.
"You...you are not the one I know. "
Madam Sino's gaze began to waver.
If there was a part of Cheng Jin-Woo's heart that was occupied by darkness in the past, then now he has completely become darkness itself.
She clearly saw the power of death surrounding Seong Jin-Woo in her eyes.
But Cheng Jin-Woo shook his head and denied it to her.
"I am the man you knew before, madam. It's just... the darkness you saw then, madam, is now one with me."
"Ah..."
What words in this world can describe the person in front of me?
In his human body is full of divine power.
Staring at the end of the terrifying power flowing from Cheng Jin-Woo's body, Mrs. Sino couldn't help sighing repeatedly.
She was so surprised from ear to ear for a long time, and after a while, she finally cheered up.
"Hold, I'm sorry...I...don't have the power to help the hunter. "
Do not.
Who else in the world would have the power to help this man?
He is already far beyond the existence of human beings.
But Seong Jin-Woo thought differently.
