“What on…”
Kang Chul-In murmured, astonished .
It truly seemed there was nothing that couldn’t be done with money .
“Ha… Being poor is a crime, it seems . ”
For the first time, Kang Chul-In sounded depressed .
To think that she would even buy strength with money… Lee Chae-Rin was truly the living example that money could buy literally everything .
“No . ”
But Lee Chae-Rin shook her head .
“You can’t buy everything with money . Especially… things like love . ”
“ . . . ?”
“A man that I know seems like he wouldn’t come over even if I spend tens and hundreds of dollars on him . He’s an iron wall . ”
Saying that, Lee Chae-Rin involuntarily blushed .
“Let’s fight . ”
But Kang Chul-In ignored what Lee Chae-Rin said, and started to walk towards the bone dragon . Now wasn’t the time to be talking amongst themselves .
“Hmph!”
Lee Chae-Rin pouted .
------------
The fight between Kang Chul-In and the bone dragon changed as Lee Chae-Rin also collaborated .
Lee Chae-Rin chanted a spell, holding her ‘MoneyPay’ item .
Pzzt!
Crack!
Crack!!
With the sound of gold clattering, ‘they’ appeared .
Lee Chae-Rin!
Seeing this, Kang Chul-In’s eyes started to shine .
The existences that Lee Chae-Rin had just summoned were extremely useful in the current situation they were in .
The fierce-looking things covered in bright light… were called ‘electra’, and were intermediate light elementals . They were quite fit to be the helpers of Kang Chul-In in this situation, as they needed something of the light element to deal an effective blow to the bone dragon .
“Mr . Chul-In!”
Lee Chae-Rin shouted .
“I’ll also help!”
Even though it may be different at times, she was a powerful ally right now .
“Alright . ”
Kang Chul-In answered, and continued to run towards the bone dragon .
-Kuooooo!!
The bone dragon roared, and met Kang Chul-In’s charge head-on .
At that moment .
Pzzt!
Bang!
The group of electras started to suicide bomb the bone dragon while it was occupied with Kang Chul-In .
Surprisingly, there weren’t just one or two electras that Lee Chae-Rin had called upon; there were nearly 50 .
It was obvious that if that many electras suicide bombed the bone dragon, its defense would decrease by a significant amount .
Nice .
Looking at the damage done to the bone dragon, Kang Chul-In thought that it might very well be possible to take this monster down .
At that moment, Kang Chul-In jumped up .
Kuoooo!
And the energy of the Vortex started to flow out from Kang Chul-In’s hands .
The target was the bone dragon’s side, where the electras had suicide bombed themselves .
BANG!
Clack…
Some of the ribs of the bone dragon were broken into pieces, and the bones flew all around the place .
“Lee Chae-Rin, the head! Aim for its head!”
Kang Chul-In shouted .
In order to kill the bone dragon, they had to aim for its ‘Death Core’, which was located in its skull .
“Okay!”
Lee Chae-Rin waved her staff, and commanded the electras to attack .
-Pzzt!
Understanding what Lee Chae-Rin wanted to do, the electras all rushed to the head of the bone dragon, before exploding .
BANG, BANG!
It was as if lightning had struck .
Clack, Clack…
At the relentless attack of the electras, the bone dragon started to wobble and scream in pain .
I need to finish it in one blow .
Kang Chul-In moved around the bone dragon, and waited for the perfect timing to attack .
The bone dragon had a special ability to berserk and increase in strength by 3 times when it received a certain amount of damage .
If that happened?
They wouldn’t be able to do anything to stop the bone dragon .
There was also a possibility of it running away, so that was another problem .
As a former dragon, the bone dragon was able to fly .
It would be almost impossible to catch since Kang Chul-In himself couldn’t fly .
This was his only chance . He had to destroy the core of the bone dragon when it was dazed and weakened by the continuous attack of the electras .
Bang!
The final electra exploded itself on the skull of the bone dragon .
Tzzt…
And a crack appeared on the giant skull of the bone dragon .
Now!
Kang Chul-In rushed out like a bullet .
Tat!
Kang Chul-In jumped over 15 meters, and fell towards the bone dragon .
Pzzt, Pzzt!
With all of his mana concentrated onto his fist, Kang Chul-In aimed at the skull of the bone dragon . It seemed possible to destroy the skull and the core if this attack landed .
But,
Shooo-!
With a terrifying sound…
BANG!
A missile came out of nowhere and exploded onto the back of the bone dragon .
“What the…”
Kang Chul-In’s face was full of shock .
And soon after, the flames that occurred due to the explosion of the missile covered Kang Chul-In .
“M-Mr . Chul-in!”
Lee Chae-Rin let out a scream that almost sounded like wailing .
---------
1 minute ago…
Watching the fight between Kang Chul-In and the bone dragon on a giant monitor, the Chief of Staff and the highest-ranked military officer in South Korea, Oh Se-Min, sighed and gave an order .
“Shoot it . ”
At this command, lieutenant general Ko Yong-Chan tried to stop Oh Se-Min .
“That man… that’s Kang Chul-In from the Galaxy Corporation…”
“ . . . So?”
“Sorry?”
“Kang Chul-In or whatever, is that guy the one feeding us and giving us money?”
“ . . . !”
“Have you seen the news? What do you think is going to happen to our positions if we leave this be?”
There was a reason Oh Se-Min was so sensitive and angry right now .
[The Army, Unable To Save The Civilians From Monsters . ]
[Vs . The Monsters, What Did The Army Do?]
[The Useless Army, The Useful Adventurers . ]
[The Struggling Army… Is The Galaxy Corporation The Only One To Trust?]
Currently, the army was getting criticised by the mass media .
It made sense .
It had been 3 hours since the monster invasion had begun, and the army was completely powerless .
During the time that they weren’t doing anything, the adventurers came and cut down the monsters one by one, and became the heroes of the civilians .
“Do you want to see me, and all the people in here, lose our positions?”
“But chief, this doesn’t make sense! We should talk to the adventurers and co-operate with…”
“SHUT UP!”
Oh Se-Min shouted, and stopped lieutenant Ko Yong-Chan’s words midway .
“Hey, Ko Yong-Chan . I’m the one in charge here . So . Shut . Up . Okay?”
“ . . . ”
“Stupid bastard… I don’t understand how you got your position with that stupid head…”
After Oh Se-Min stared at Ko Yong-Chan with disgusted eyes,
“Hey, operations manager . ”
“Colonel, Jung! Sung! Hoon!”
“From this moment onward, we will respond with the Panzerfaust 3 . Tell that to everyone . ”
“Yes, understood!”
“And…”
Oh Se-Min looked at Kang Chul-In and the bone dragon once more .
“Tell them to shoot . That Kang whatever, just shoot him too . If news comes out, tell the media that he was ignoring our warnings, and staying near the monster . ”
“ . . . Understood . ”
“Same for the other adventurers . ”
Oh Se-Min added .
“We ignore the safety of the adventurers . Make sure we attack first . I will take responsibility and talk to the people of the Blue House . ”
“ . . . Understood . ”
Even though colonel Jung felt disgusted at Oh Se-Min’s methods, it was impossible for him to ignore the words of the joint chief of staff .
“Sea Eagle, Sea Eagle . ”
-Nest, nest . This is Sea Eagle, over . ”
“Sea Eagle, current time: 11: 20 . An order has been given . ”
And soon after the command was given, the ‘hellfire missile’ otherwise known as the AGM-114M Hellfire II hit the back of the bone dragon, and cheers could be heard in the board office .
But, as the flames subsided and the bone dragon that was now covered in black appeared…
“D-Don’t tell me…”
“Even after getting hit…”
“No way…”
The soldiers that were watching couldn’t hide their shock .
The bone dragon roared fiercely, its eyes having a terrifying reddish glow that it didn’t have before .
-Kuoooooo!!
It was obvious that it just entered its berserk mode .
-Krrr…
The bone dragon stared at the attack helicopter that had just shot a missile towards it,
Clack…
Before spreading its withered wings,
BANG!!
And flying and attacking the attack helicopter at unbelievable speeds .
