Overgeared

‘Absorption can be poison.’

One of the ultimate martial arts—Kyle felt a terrible sense of helplessness at Lee Jeong’s ability to take away the ‘energy’ of others. After having his lightning stolen and being trampled on miserably, he realized that Lee Jeong was an absolute person who couldn’t be faced. He even thought that if Braham and Lee Jeong fought, they wouldn’t be able to kill each other. Yet Grid had killed such a Lee Jeong.

Kyle marveled at Grid’s judgment in using the holy flames to kill Lee Jeong, who had become an undead under Doom’s influence. He wondered if Grid would win against Lee Jeong even without Doom.

This was a battlefield where tens of thousands of intentions intersected. There were variables constantly happening. Grid immediately responded to a deadly variable and used it to achieve victory. There was no doubt that he was one of the top talents.

“Cough...”

Kyle received a sickle attached to a chain in his back and he coughed up blood. He had deep wounds all over his body and his white clothing were dyed completely red. It was daunting to deal with 27 followers on his own shortly after fighting Lee Jeong. No, he couldn’t afford it.

‘I will die if this continues.’

He had already done his best. He had provided Grid with enough time to focus on Lee Jeong and it was time to find a way out. However, it was hard to find a chance to survive no matter how much he looked. The 12 surviving followers of the Martial God tightly surrounded Kyle. The moment Kyle took a single step, 12 types of weapons would smash him.

“......”

Kyle focused. He thought about how Grid transformed a crisis into an opportunity in the battle with Lee Jeong and the word ‘give up’ was erased from his mind. Then he heard a voice piercing the battlefield from the ground, “Kill me!”

The person’s name was Katz. A member of the Overgeared Guild who actively used blood as a weapon was sincerely shouting at Grid. At first glance, it seemed to be the worst situation.Under Drasion’s curse, he became a puppet and slaughtered his allies. He was left looking for death.

A huge spear was rising like a tower from the pool of blood flowing from the soldiers pierced by his rain of blood. The moment it responded to Drasion’s will and caused a massacre, a distinct blood fragrance drifted up to the sky and buried the odor of rotten earth.

A tearful woman’s shout was also heard, “Kill me too!”

She was disgusted with herself after freezing thousands of soldiers on the north side of the battlefield. She seemed to be a witch of the ice kingdom.

“Hah...”

All those who wanted to live were struggling while those who wanted to die were screaming. It was a hell of confusion created by conflicting wills. There were the followers of the Martial God who kept their mouths shut and ignored all situations. They were creepy like monsters whose emotions were castrated. There was also the strange appearance of Drasion shedding bloody tears.

It made his hairs stand on end. Was this really the earth? Perhaps he had already died and were trembling in hell.

A deep voice entered the ears of the doubting Kyle, the soldiers, and everyone else on the battlefield, “Frozen Crystal.”

“......!”

Kyle got goosebumps. The cold air that dominated the northern part of the battlefield seemed to have been gathered, forming an extreme cold that covered his whole body. In the end, solid ice that would never break was born and Kyle was locked inside it. Kyle couldn’t move his fingertips. His body was completely still.
