chapter 180
like a beacon
Martins have the power equivalent to a minimum of 3rd class and a maximum of 1st class foreigner.
The power of the external force that such Martins fired all at once in one place was ignorant. Even if the opponent is that powerful Atlo, it’s natural to be wary.
So it wasn’t really strange that the Martins thought they could buy time.
But in the end, their predictions didn’t come true. To be precise, some were right and some were wrong.
The Atloins didn’t just come over the hole, and they didn’t stop because of that.
bang!
A wall shattered with a tremendous roar.
Another hole opened.
Yes.
What Atlo chose was not the first hole that the Martins radiated energy from, but to make other holes to come over.
‘sh*t!’

Greedy Martin contorted his face.
It was because he seemed to know roughly what Atlo was thinking when he did such a thing.
Drilling multiple holes can diversify the route, but it has the disadvantage of dispersing power.
Having to endure individual defeats.
But what if the forces on this side are small? What if there is something on this side that needs to be protected somehow?
Of course, the side that is defeated individually has no choice but to be the side that defends.
‘Are you reading… … .’
Obviously showing that much power, but coming out like that means that they know that this side’s strength, so to speak, is small.

Greedy Martin bit his lip.
‘I have to scatter first.’
He immediately gave instructions to the Martins.
“You go over there! You over there!”
thud! thud! thud!
The holes are drilled with a roaring sound that bursts without rest.
It wasn’t long before outsiders appeared for the first time.
‘It’s not strong.’
None of the 122 Martins is weaker than them.
There are only three of them on such a subject.
But the greedy Martin was not vigilant.
“Don’t leave your seat! Be sure to take full responsibility!”
Martin, who had been waiting there, released an external force towards the three foreigners who were flying quickly.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The three foreigners who disappeared without being able to properly defend themselves.
Martin’s morale soared at that absurdly easy death.
“haha! Aren’t those things great?”
After that, the situation did not change.
The outsiders just came out of this hole and that hole and rushed like moths to the fire, and the Martins killed them so easily.
Of course, Martin’s expression couldn’t help but improve.
But the greedy Martin’s face grew darker.
‘Those… I’m looking at the liver.’
That’s some kind of verification.
The task of determining whether the information they have is accurate.
Otherwise, there’s no way we’re sending out three people like that. Weak foreigners who can’t even resist properly.
Those foreigners who died and protruded from every hole were just eyes that relayed information from one side to the other.
‘The proper attack hasn’t even started yet.’
If so, when will the proper attack begin?

Greedy Martin seemed to know the answer too.
‘When we figured out our intention.’
In fact, it should be considered that the power has already been exposed.
What they are not sure about is the purpose of this side.
The moment they know the purpose, they will start attacking in earnest.

Greedy Martin thought so. And I hoped that the moment would come as late as possible.
However.
[good!]
[Oh oh… … .]
That moment came too quickly.
The number of foreigners who had only appeared in groups of three so far jumped to hundreds. Rather than attacking the Martins in front of the hole, they scattered around and seemed focused on digging into the center of the universe.
The Martins immediately began pursuing and killing the foreigners. It was only natural for the formation to collapse.
‘sh*t!’
All of that happened in the moment of apocalypse. Even before the greedy Martin gave any order.
oh oh oh-

Greedy Martin instantly felt a tremendous force leaking out of the hole at the very edge. The moment he felt the power, he looked at the strongest Martin and pointed there.
“Just over there… … .”
Before he could even finish his words, strangers who were different from those who had appeared so far appeared.
A body surrounded by black and white light, and horns on the head.
It was clear that he was an aristocrat of Atlo.
[Follow me!]
[We destroy everything in the world created by traitors!]
[The moment of revenge has come!]
Under the leadership of the nobles, a huge number of foreigners began to come out like waves.
At that time when the Martins were stiff for a moment at the sudden change, the strongest Martin moved.
“huh!”
The strongest Martin with a snort disappeared from the side of the greedy Martin.
Kwaaang-
He made a huge explosion and appeared among the outsiders. The momentum was so vicious that even the nobles of Atlo flinched and stopped.
The strongest Martin knew how important momentum was in a fight.
Huung-
Crisp!
He shouted as he swung his fists and eliminated the outsiders.
“Don’t worry about the formation! just fight! Kill all those bugs.”
At his scream full of speculation, the Martins started to move.
The beings of the beginning also abandoned the idea that they had to keep their backs in the second line.
He thought that killing as many foreigners as possible was the only way to protect this universe, and soon he showed his strength by burning with a vengeful spirit.
Saaa-
The darkness emanating from Arin’s hand, engulfing the external power, engulfed the approaching outsiders.
The war thus began to flow in a quite different direction than Martin had initially thought.
* * *
The rooftop of the castle of the Duke of Lamot.
Pedro waved his hand in the air.
An external force wriggled in accordance with his gestures and changed the world.
The range was not wide. The world changed only in the 3m range centered on him.
The swordsman, who was watching Pedro’s training, pushed himself into the 3m area and then backed away in admiration.
‘Awesome…’ … .’
It only changes up to 3m away from Pedro. Even the Sword Saint was able to perceive the change only after entering the boundary.
Pedro skillfully fused and handled external forces and characteristics.
Even though there were not a few people passing by, there were not many people who noticed.
‘As expected of Pedro.’
The fantasy embodied by a close friend could no longer be called a fantasy.
It was another complete reality itself.
“after… … .”
As Pedro retrieved the external force and removed the illusion, the Sword Master opened his mouth.
“It is indistinguishable from reality. No matter how I look at it, I don’t know. It seems that Martin’s words that you are stronger than any other Transcendentalist are true.”
Considering that the swordsman is a person who doesn’t usually talk empty words, it can be said to be a huge compliment.
But Pedro only smiled bitterly.
“He recognized him at a glance.”
that guy
There is probably only one person whom Pedro calls so friendly and who can recognize Pedro’s fantasies at a glance.
“If it were Martin, of course he would have known. What’s so strange about that?”
“Nothing strange. It’s just that I’m worried.”
“what?”
“Didn’t Martin say that among the Atloins there are beings stronger than him?”
“… That king?”
“Yes, if Martin can see it at a glance, my illusions won’t work on him either.”
The swordsman narrowed his brows.
“You don’t have to try to do everything. Martin, before being your son, is the mightiest warrior among us. So if you’re a king or something, leave it to Martin. Isn’t that why he doesn’t sleep and works so hard?”
Pedro turned his gaze to the building containing the underground gymnasium.
The external force in the eyes made it possible to see what one wanted to see through the physical barrier of a wall.
‘Son… … .’
I see Martin sitting upright on the floor with his eyes closed. Pedro looked at Martin for a moment before bursting into laughter.
The Sword Saint tilted his head.
It was good that the depressed Pedro laughed, but he couldn’t figure out why.
“Why are you laughing?”
“I never thought the day would come when I would hear advice like this from you.”
“… Yes, but is it fun?”
“No, rather… Suddenly, things from the past came to mind.”
“haha. um, yes… Definitely did. You were always the one giving advice between us.”
The swordsman laughed awkwardly.
As a young man, he had a number of accidents. It was only thanks to Pedro’s help and rectification that it didn’t spread to the world, and even to himself, the swordsman in his youth was nothing more than a brat who was good at fighting.
“It was a good time though.”
“It’s been a bit of a headache, but news about you always makes me happy.”
The two looked up at the sky while recalling old memories for a moment. But soon, at the same time, I felt something strange and got up from my seat.
“This feeling… Could it be an external force?”
“It’s light, but… I guess so. Absolutely no divine power or magical power.”
A black mist that has stopped moving since Martin built the dam. Its appearance remains unchanged. But now, the two felt a slightly different atmosphere. It was a subtle energy that I could feel because I was able to handle external forces.
“It looks like the dam that Martin built is starting to overflow. It spreads quickly.”
“If it gets a little darker, normal people won’t be able to stand it.”
The standard for ordinary people that Swordsman said was a superman without external powers.
If superhumans do that, what about real normal people?
The answer was visible in both eyes.
It was in their eyes that the ordinary people who were walking around Ramot Castle fell down one by one.
Pedro exclaimed urgently.
“Your life force is running out!”
He quickly shook his hand. The external force emitted from the hand spread widely and permeated the bodies of ordinary people who struggled in pain.
After a while, seeing that their breathing was even, Pedro let out a small sigh. It was because he knew very well that what he did now could not be a fundamental solution.
The swordsman cautiously proposed to such Pedro.
“How about calling Martin?”
Pedro shook his head without thinking.
“Wouldn’t Martin already know?”
“Well… It could be.”
“Still, it doesn’t come out… It must be because he decided that absorbing even a little more of the new external force would be helpful to the world rather than resolving the current situation. Trust Martin and hold on.”
The swordsman scratched his head and drew the sword from the scabbard.
“What should I do? It won’t be of any help except for fighting.”
“I’ll do what I can to save people, so you wait, and in case the dam completely bursts and the external force overflows, then step in and remove the external force with that sword.”
“Well… I see.”
As the swordsman nodded, Pedro raised his arms wide.
Whoaaa-
A hemisphere of external force appeared around him and began to grow in size rapidly.
Pedro was trying to create a shelter that would confine the entire Duchy of Ramote by realizing his fantasy.
It was just then that his hemispheres grew to about 10 meters in diameter.
Hwaaa-
External forces began to rise here and there.
Hundreds of external forces were rising like beacon fires, from near the castle gate to far away from the ecliptic.
Pedro paused and exclaimed in admiration. The swordsman’s reaction was no different.
“her… … .”
“That’s awful… … .”
Even though no one told them to, the superhumans who received external force from Martin immediately set out to save people as soon as they felt a change.
Even while generously using the precious external power that once consumed, it could not be obtained until Martin gave it back.
The sight was very moving to both of them.
“Really… It’s extraordinary.”
“Martin did a good job selecting talent.”
Looking at the burning external force, the two old men felt the hearts of superhumans who wanted to protect people.
