Reversing Life With Legendary Skills! - Chapter 27

The base camp is a hive buzzing with activity.

Supplies were coming in from outside the dungeon, and members were organizing them inside the camp.

Weapons and new personnel arrived one after another.

“I think we’re going to attack,” Kim Dae-sung grumbled as they watched the scene.

He was opposed to the attack from the beginning.

“I don’t know what Master is thinking,” he continued.

“Hmm, Dae-sung. How many times have you been on an attack with Master commanding?”

Han Yu-ra disagreed with Dae-sung’s line of thinking.

“Yes? Once.”

Kim Dae-sung’s level is no different from Jin-woo’s.

On the other hand, he had been in the guild for about ten years, like Han Yu-ra.

From the beginning, Yu-ra had been with Park Tae-sung through several dungeon attacks.

So, her level of acceptance is different from Dae-sung.

“There must be a reason why Master wanted to push through with the attack.”

“What could it be?”

“I don’t know in particular, but I know Master.”

Nevertheless, the two people seemed not to be anxious about the attack.

Their reactions are polar opposites.

[Interesting.]

Jin-woo and the swordsman were watching them.

Obviously, the members of the guild are also divided internally, such as in Dae-sung’s and Yu-ra’s situation.

However, Master Park Tae-sung pushed ahead.

The backlash from the Chinese was expected to be severe, but for some reason, they were quiet this time.

Jin-woo assumed that there had been some sort of negotiation that happened behind the scenes.

[Stop worrying and start preparing.]

That’s right.

The decision has already been made.

If successful, the participants on the attack will be rewarded according to the contract.

Park Tae-sung will have the first choice amongst the loot.

That choice was delegated to Jin-woo.

It would be nice if a legendary skill comes out.

[Are there any skills you would like to learn?]

No, I’m going to give it to Sun-woo. If he can get stronger, he’ll be safer.

[Right.]

Jin-woo didn’t feel greedy about legendary skills because he knows where he can get them regularly.

[Let’s check the weapon the rat gave you.]

Okay.

He opened the inventory and took out the Dragon Blade.

Even with its physical appearance, the Dragon Blade is obviously not an ordinary item.

It was shining with golden light.

Jin-woo preferred to keep it inside the inventory to avoid questions about it.

But now is a good time to take them out.

Because they will face a dragon soon.

“Check items.”

A hologram window appeared in front of him.

[Dragon Blade]

[Rating: Legendary]

[A sword made from a mixture of dragon bones.]

[Physical attack power: 1,070]

[Power: 570]

[Agility: 320]

[Health: 600]

[Mana: 430]

[Special Skill: Dragon Peer]

[Special Skill 2: Dragon Shield]

[Special Skill 3: Dragon Slayer]

Jin-woo felt great as he checked the stats.

It really suited the ‘legendary’ rating.

Excalibur would have around the same stats, right?

[Yes. Because they have the same grade, it would be similar.]

When Jin-woo met Oliver, he was impressed by the great white sheath on his back.

He had seen him with the sword through various media in the past.

He was wondering what skills it could perform.

Well, Excalibur is Excalibur. I must check my own weapon.

“Check skills.”

Three windows appeared simultaneously.

[Skill: Dragon Peer]

[Legendary Weapon Exclusive Skill]

[Use Dragon Peer to reduce the attack power and defense of monsters and make them rigid.]

[Range: 1㎞]

[Number of uses: 2 times]

[Cool Time: 24 hours ]

[Skill: Dragon Shield]

[Legendary Weapon Exclusive Skill]

[Dragon Shield is deployed to defend against attacks. Defends all attacks up to 7,000 damage.]

[Range: 500m]

[Number of uses: 1 time]

[Cool time: 24 hours]

Both skills were good.

Dragon Peer was suitable for large-scale battles.

If all the monsters they would face gets within 1km range, he could make them rigid.

That could secure an early victory.

Dragon Shield was also a very good defense skill.

It had a wide range and can block up to 7,000 damage.

That’s around 4-5 attacks from a hero rating weapon or skill.

Lastly…

Jinwoo checked the last skill.

[Skill: Dragon Slayer]

[Legendary Weapon Only Skill]

[Temporarily gain the power of a legendary dragon slayer warrior.]

[All users’ abilities increase by 500%.]

[Range: Individual]

[Number of uses: 1 time]

[Retention time: 5 minutes]

[Caution: After a single use, the skill will disappear.]

A 500% increase in all abilities…

It was almost cheating.

It was a single-use skill, though, probably to compensate for the overpowered ability that was attached to the weapon.

Single-use.

The last phrase was stuck on Jin-woo’s mind.

After using it, the skill disappears forever.

This is not my sword.

It was a borrowed weapon.

He wouldn’t want to use the skill if it could degrade the sword’s performance afterward.

[Ah! Don’t be a stupid disciple. Do you think the rat would give you this sword without knowing about that?]

What do you mean?

[He won’t care if you used that skill. Stop that useless worrying.]

The swordsman’s words made him feel comfortable.

I think I can really catch a dragon with this.

[It’s not that easy.]

What?

[It won’t be an easy fight.]

The swordsman’s voice was firm.

Jin-woo felt nervous.

* * *

The raid team left the base camp after a week of preparation.

Their route was set through the Green Dragon’s Forest.

With the Labyrinth cleared, it was the easiest and fastest route.

It took only two days to reach the Labyrinth.

When Jin-woo arrived at the place where he helped the other guild members, he was amazed.

I didn’t notice it at that time because I was too focused on the Red Moon.

The size of the Labyrinth was only about two football fields.

[It doesn’t take a lot of space to confuse people.]

The raid team took a night’s rest in the Labyrinth.

The next day, the raid group was divided into three teams before heading for the mountain range.

Jin-woo couldn’t figure out why they have divided up so soon.

The mountain range was about two days away.

Dividing the troops too soon seems to be risky.

[Be careful.]

Yes?

As the swordsman spoke, Park Tae-sung, who was leading the groups, raised his right hand.

It was the hand signal to stop.

Everyone quickly stopped walking.

Jin-woo, who was in the frontline along with Park Tae-sung, saw the reason why they were asked to stop.

A man was sitting about 300m in front of them.

He seemed to be camping, with a campfire in front of him.

It was suspicious.

A campfire in front of a mountain range with dragons? Ridiculous.

Everyone has drawn out their weapons.

Jin-woo’s eyes turned to Park Tae-sung, admiring his great insight.

[It wasn’t just great insight.]

Then, what is it?

[Well… First, focus on the enemy in front of you.]

At the words of the swordsman, Jin-woo stared at the man in their path.

The man slowly got up from his seat.

“I didn’t want to see my house break down. I came down to greet the guests.”

Despite the distance, the man’s voice was clearly heard.

Everyone then knew who the man really was.

Park Tae-sung raised his hand to his ear, gesturing to the group to wait for the hand signal.

At that moment, Oliver also moved.

Thung-!

He pulled out Excalibur.

“The King’s Blessing!”

As he cried out, white flashes of light spread out in all directions.

[Skill: The King’s Blessing applies.]

[All stats increase by 30%.]

[Retention time: 120 minutes]

This…

Excalibur’s exclusive skill.

A skill that increases the abilities of the user’s allies.

With this, Oliver has grown the Noblesse Guild into one of the best in the world.

Park Tae-sung then cried out as well.

“Fire Mana Cannon!”

Blue flashes coming in from the left flew and struck the place where the strange man stood.

Mana cannon.

One of the strongest hybrid weapons that combine technology and human abilities.

The user’s mana and the mana stones on the weapon are synergized and amplified the power of the weapon.

The power was comparable to a rare skill.

In addition, the Tae-wang Guild developed it further.

Their Magic Team was deployed to handle the weapons so the power would be greater.

As a result, the power was comparable to a hero-grade skill.

With a weapon like this, they have enough power to change the flow of battle.

It was then.

The man soared through the air as the blue flashes hit the ground, spreading clouds of dirt.

“Two wave launch!”

The mana cannons were then aimed at the air as if they have expected the man’s movement.

With Park Tae-sung’s command, the blue lights flashed and hit the man in the air.

[It’s a great power.]

The swordsman admired it.

The attack power was comparable to several hero-grade attacks.

[But there’s not much damage.]

As the clouds of dust cleared, the man was revealed. He had a purple sphere around him.

“It’s a good attack,” he spoke. “This time…”

“Three wave launch!”

Park Tae-sung shouted before the man’s words were over.

More mana cannons fired this time.

Quark-!

The man was once again covered in a fog of dust and smoke.

“It’s rude…” the man’s voice can be heard through the fog. “to attack while I am speaking.”

Whoo-!

A strong wind burst from his position.

The dust and smoke quickly dissipated.

The man was gone.

In his place was a black dragon larger than an airplane.

Elemental Dragon.

“Maryong…” someone who had a search skill blurted out the dragon’s name.

Cour-!

The dragon’s mouth opened.

Black flames began to gather in his throat.

Everyone was on high alert.

One of a dragon’s strongest weapons was his breath.

“Three teams, ready!”

Park Tae-sung’s voice rang out.

“Stay back!”

The black flames burst forth.

Jin-woo hurriedly took out the Dragon Blade from his inventory.

The Dragon Shield would make a great defense against the dragon’s breath.

At that moment, though, several things flew in front of them.

Drones?

They look thinner and longer than regular drones.

They quickly flew in front of Team 1.

Ji-ing!

Each device radiated light, connecting to each other.

Like a net.

A giant blue net covered Team 1’s front.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!

The dragon’s breath struck the net with tremendous power, sending dust clouds into the air.

As it did, the Team 2 released a volley of mana cannons again.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!

With the size of their target, it was hard for them to hit.

Maryong was accurately hit.

“Okay!”

The sky began to darken as the battle heated up.

Team 1 was safe, thanks to the drone-like devices.

Team 2 was successful with their counter-attack.

The swordsman glanced up at the dark clouds, then stared back at Maryong.

[It seems that the attack only made it angrier.]

“Foolish humans! Abandon the thought of quick death!”

The dragon’s eyes flashed.

A violent earthquake occurred, and cracks began to form on the ground.

Skeletons with red glow began to rise from the cracks.

That wasn’t the end of it.

Numerous demon creatures slowly climbed out of the cracks as well.

Giant earthworms.

Wizards in black robes.

Black wizards. Hundreds of them.

They look exactly like the one Jin-woo met in the Dragon Canyon.

Fortunately, they didn’t have skeleton dragons with them this time.

It was then.

“Powersuit Team, advance!”

From Teams 2 and 3, several groups of people moved forward.

They were wearing mechanical clothing.

The dragon’s voice boomed out. “Kill them!”

His monster troops rushed.

One of the men in mechanical suits placed his hands on the ground.

Kwajik-!

When he lifted his hands, he carried a huge chunk of soil and rocks.

He threw it to the rushing monsters.

Quark-!

The skeletons were shattered upon impact as if they have been hit by a bomb.

“Combat begins!”

The members in mechanical suits began rushing towards the monster troops.

Jin-woo was amazed at the sight.

So, this is how the Taewang Guild looks like in battle.

It was more incredible than what he had seen in videos.

It seemed that they have prepared for everything.

Park Tae-sung was indeed a remarkable commander.

It was not hard to understand why Han Ji-joon and Han Yu-ra trusted him completely.

If you’ve been watching this for ten years… you will have no choice but believe in Park Tae-sung.

[Disciple, the fight is not over yet.]

Yes, I know.

The fight has just begun.
