I never thought the words would come out of the zombie’s mouth.

Red Light Penetrates Darkness (1)

‘Alas! This guy is not a zombie either.’

I was momentarily mistaken.

A sharp and eerie feeling that pierces the heart…!

This energy only comes from vampires.

‘Could a vampire imitate a zombie?’

Even from a distance, Ryu Ki-seok immediately recognized Jun-young, who was in a zombie state thanks to the protection of the black moon.

Because the sign of the Black Moon showed who the owner of the Blue Moon Node was.

However, the mark did not mark the vampire who turned into a zombie.

“What…you?”

So I was perplexed.

A zombie blocked Jun-young’s path while secretly approaching him in an invisible state to launch a surprise attack.

“Abyss… that’s me. Of course they are not zombies.”

Avis smiled and grabbed Ryu Ki-seok’s neck with one hand.

Quack!

My throat was suppressed in an instant, but I couldn’t escape.

‘Ugh! too fast.’

Ryu Ki-seok tried to resist, but Avis’ other hand dug into his heart, grabbed it and pulled it out.

“Quaaagh!”

With a gruesome scream, Ryu Ki-seok’s body drooped.

Although he was an A-class assassin and even received the protection of the Black Moon, he was no match for the potential 4-star vampire Abyss (★★★☆).

Moreover, since he was ambushed, he was literally killed in the blink of an eye, helpless.

“Good work, Avis.”

Junyoung had already cleaned up all the vampires and was watching Abyss defeat Ryu Ki-seok.

Ryu Ki-seok died, but unlike the vampires, no rewards, including experience points, came in.

In other words, if the purpose is to acquire experience points, killing the Awoken is meaningless.

In a way, that’s fortunate.

It’s very tragic for humans to kill humans to get experience points.

Still, there’s no choice but to kill it.

Because Ryu Ki-seok is the villain.

‘As expected, assassins are targeting me.’

So I placed Abyss.

A vampire with the ability to search!

It is like a natural enemy to those who have awakened the assassination trait.

“master! This guy is like the Ryu Ki-seok that Kim Woo-jin talked about.”

Avis said as he tossed Ryu Ki-seok’s body, which was lying limp with his heart removed, on the floor.

“He’s the one who was called Ma Dong-hyuk’s right-hand man.”

“yes. With this, all of Ma Dong-hyeok’s henchmen are dead. The rest are just normal guys with nothing special.”

“You mustn’t be careless. If it’s him, it’s more than enough to attract the power of the black moon or gray moon to attack us.”

“Yes, master. Then I will be watching for another assassin to come.”

Of course, Junyoung was already thinking that he had won the war against Donghyuk Ma of the Gwanak Guild.

But the war must end.

You don’t know what variables might exist, so you have to do your best without being vigilant until the end.

“Viscount! The Gwanak Guild has all retreated.”

At that time, Cha Soo-hyeok hurriedly came up to where Jun-young was and shouted.

“Nine skeleton soldiers were sacrificed, and three Awakeners from the Gwanak Guild died.”

Joon-young was surprised.

I thought the skeletons would be overwhelming, but I thought the damage would be tripled.

“It looks like Ma Dong-hyuk is stronger than I thought.”

“An unexpected ambush was hiding.”

“Ambush?”

“He is a powerful horseman of at least A rank. Even stealth didn’t work for him. A shot from a distance is enough to accurately shoot the skulls of the skeleton soldiers and kill them one by one.”

Joon-young’s expression hardened.

‘I thought I’d won everything… but I can’t be vigilant until the war is over.’

It means that Ma Dong-hyeok had an ambush unknown to Kim Woo-jin and Son Gyeong-mi.

If it is possible to one-shot one-kill against 1-star skeletons, the enemy must be quite tricky.

“If you’re a horse gunner, you won’t be able to take it lightly.”

“There were also a few B-rank horsemen, but an A-rank horseman was leading them.”

“Then why did you retreat?”

“I think the Viscount noticed that he wiped out the vampires.”

“No matter how much the vampires were wiped out, a strong horsemanship unit still remained, but they retreated? Something is strange.”

“The Black Moon vampires might not have been a big deal in front of the viscount, but they would have been the strongest for Ma Dong-hyeok. It’s understandable that he’s upset. But even so, retreating as the Viscount said seems to be a target.”

“Are you targeting?”

Cha Soo-hyeok nodded.

“In other words, it seems that they retreated when the war turned unfavorable, but this could be their strategy instead. If we follow too quickly, there is a high possibility that we will be counterattacked. Currently, we have no way to stop the horse gunners…”

Cha Soo-hyeok, who initially showed a confident attitude, looked quite disappointed.

It must have been natural since they lost 9 skeleton soldiers in an instant.

“Fortunately, in the case of skeleton soldiers, even if they die, they can be revived by consuming knight points in the base’s barracks.”

“Do you have any points?”

“yes. You don’t have to worry about that. I have ample points accumulated so far, so even if the skeleton troops are wiped out, I can resurrect them all.”

A knight gets a certain number of blue moon knight points every day.

In addition, you can get a large amount of blue moon knight points through various missions or battles.

However, there is one last resort if the consumption of points is too much to handle.

Junyeong, the owner of the base, can exchange blue moon points for points for some knights and give them to you.

In other words, if Cha Soo-hyeok fails to resurrect the skeleton soldiers due to lack of points, Jun-yeong can do it for him.

Fortunately, you don’t have to do that now.

Because Cha Soo-hyeok has enough points to resurrect the skeletons.

“The problem is that resurrection is possible only in the base’s barracks.”

“But I don’t think we should rush to the base right now. We don’t know where Ma Dong-hyeok’s horse-gunner unit is going to shoot.”

Junyoung nodded.

“You shouldn’t be shot by them anymore. Move all the skeleton soldiers into the building.”

“Yes, viscount. But who is that corpse?”

Cha Soo-hyeok pointed to a gruesome corpse strewn among the vampires.

“I am Ma Dong-hyuk’s right-hand man, Ryu Ki-seok.”

Then, Cha Soo-hyeok was surprised.

“When is Ryu Ki-seok here?”

“I was sneaking up on him in stealth, but he caught me and killed me.”

Junyoung pointed to the vampire Abyss.

Although they are transformed into zombies, allies can be identified, so you can immediately know who is who.

‘It’s not normal for a 3-star vampire to take down the A-class assassin Ryu Ki-seok lightly.’

Looking at Avis, Cha Soo-hyeok’s heart grew cold.

This is because Ryu Ki-seok, as an Awakener with the same assassination trait, was a terrifying strongman with combat power one level higher than Cha Soo-hyeok.

Of course, that’s just an old story.

The current Cha Soo-hyeok becomes a knight of the blue moon and transcends the limits, so I don’t think he will be easily defeated even if he fights Ryu Ki-seok.

I didn’t have the confidence to win a one-on-one match against Abyss.

I don’t know if I mobilize the Death Knights.

‘Still, it’s really fortunate that such a scary vampire is guarding the Viscount.’

Cha Soo-hyeok was relieved when he saw with his own eyes that even an A-class assassin would not be able to ambush Jun-young in case of emergency.

“All the skeleton troops have been moved into the building. Since it is placed in a place where sniping from the outside is impossible, even Ma Dong-hyuk will not be able to rush in.”

Junyoung nodded.

He has also moved to a safe location in preparation for possible outside sniping.

“If there is a horse gunner among the enemies, it is tiring in many ways.”

“Most of the horse shooters are specialized in fighting awakened people rather than monsters. That’s why there are many horse gunners among the villains. The problem is that there are no troops capable of ranged attacks at our base.”

That’s not wrong.

As Cha Soo-hyeok said, having only troops specialized in close combat at the Blue Moon Base is definitely a big problem.

‘It’s not like there isn’t much.’

There is.

It’s just a problem because it’s like a wind that can never be caught in your hand.

Killer Hwang Soo-ah!

‘At times like this, it would be really reassuring if she was on my side.’

I don’t know where she is.

They come only when they want to come and then disappear without a trace.

Maybe in the meantime, it may have gone somewhere far away.

‘no. The killer emperor is definitely not far away.’

It was a vague intuition, but somehow I was certain that it would be so.

‘The mosquito net buff must have disappeared by now.’

She seemed to be prone to mosquito bites.

It has strong combat power like the natural enemy of all Awoken people, but is weak against bloodsuckers such as mosquitoes.

‘If you can’t stand it even after being bitten, you’ll find me.’

When I was lost in thought for a while.

Taang!

Suddenly, a gunshot broke the silence.

Tutung! tu tu tu! Drooling!

Then the sound of automatic rifles resonated in the ears.

“Keuuu!”

At the same time, a bloody vampire flew into the window and rolled around.

“Abyss!”

“Keugh…! I’m sorry, master…”

About 10 magic bullets were lodged in Abyss’ upper body.

Fortunately, the vital point, such as the heart, was narrowly avoided, but the upper body was still open like a beehive.

‘If bitten, rub! If bitten, rub…!’

I can’t lose the family I’ve worked so hard for like this.

If bitten, rub!

It exerts the same power as an advanced healing skill against Junyoung’s followers.

“Thank you for saving me, Master.”

Thanks to pouring out a large amount of mana, Abyss was completely restored.

“Why did you suddenly go outside and get shot?”

“The owner seems to be worried about the horse gunners, so stop trying to solve the problem…”

Avis thought that this was an opportunity to be recognized by Junyoung, so he went outside without permission and tried to kill the awakened people.

As a 3-star vampire who killed the A-class assassin Ryu Ki-seok as a joke, other Awakened people seemed funny to him.

“However, even my stealth didn’t work on them… Somehow, they figured out exactly where I was and attacked.”

“Then why did you go outside without my permission?”

“sorry.”

Facing Junyoung’s disapproving gaze, Avis lowered his head with an intimidated expression.

“Rather than that, it seems that the power of the Black Moon intervened, Master.”

“Aside from the vampires, are there horse gunners on the black moon?”

“hehehe… of course. It’s not just vampires like me on the Black Moon. It is true that vampires, including the demon duke Skia, are the main axis, but there are countless other powerful people.”

“Are you saying that one of them came to help Ma Dong-hyuk?”

“Yes, master. I think Ma Dong-hyeok swore allegiance to the Black Moon.”

Ma Dong-hyuk in the black moon?

It’s nothing new.

The villain Ma Dong-hyuk and the black moon are a perfect combination.

‘It’s been a headache in many ways.’

But in the meantime, Ma Dong-hyuk seems to have refused to belong to the Black Moon, perhaps because of his pride.

‘Actually, the safe zone has become the stronghold of the Black Moon, so I can’t approach it hastily.’

What will be the fate of the nearly 200 survivors?

For some reason, my heart felt tight.

Flash!

Then, a strange thing happened to his eyes.

‘That one?’

Was it an optical illusion?

Joon-young, who casually glanced outside, saw a flash of red light in the distance in the dark.

From noble mtl dot com.

‘That light! It seems to be the evil eye of the killer emperor?’

The evil eye of fear that you will die the moment you see that light!

However, Junyoung was an exception.

It’s just a kind of signal from Killer Huang.

A sign that she is there.

‘As expected, it was nearby.’

Why did you come? Bitten by a mosquito? Or are you just bored?

It’s so fickle that I can’t figure it out.

“Whoa! At a time like this, if only Killer Huang could be on our side, it would be really reassuring, Viscount.”

At that time, Cha Soo-hyeok seemed to have thought of Hwang Soo-ah as if by chance.

“Even if you don’t, I’m thinking of calling her now.”

“yes? How can I call the killer emperor here?”

“She is nearby now. But for some reason, it doesn’t seem like it will just appear, so I’m thinking of calling it chicken.”

“Chicken?”

Cha Soo-hyeok looked at Jun-young with a puzzled expression.

“I just placed an order and it should be delivered soon.”

Junyoung smiled strangely.

* * *

Meanwhile, Ma Dong-hyeok was coldly glaring at the building in the distance.

“You bastards! It’s stuck inside the building and won’t come out.”

Then, a man in a black hood pointing a gun at the building next to him smiled and said.

“Don’t be in a hurry. They can’t live in that building forever. They will definitely come out and that will be their last.”

Racal, the Black Moon Horseman!

The moment Ma Dong-hyeok swore allegiance to the black moon, he appeared like an illusion.

It was a reinforcement sent from the Black Moon to help Ma Dong-hyeok.

‘It’s a hundred times better than those vampires who only talk.’

There really was no one else.

Ma Dong-hyeok had admired Racal’s mysterious sniping ability.

‘He’s definitely not Korean, but he doesn’t look like a foreign Awakener… is he from another world?’

Racal felt a sense of alienation unique to beings from a completely different world.

‘hehehe… What does it matter where you’re from anyway?’

Ma Dong-hyuk smiled happily.

He didn’t mind being a demon as long as it helped him.

“But what is that?”

At that time, Rakal suddenly looked at one place with a puzzled expression.

“What do you mean?”

“The roof of the building next door over there.”

“By the way, who is it?”

It was also seen in Ma Dong-hyuk’s eyes.

A woman wearing a baseball cap that was worn down was sitting on the roof, quietly gazing at the sky.

‘Are you a survivor?’

For some reason, Ma Dong-hyuk felt uneasy.
