The Late Game Healer Is Way Too Strong – Chapter 199

𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝟏𝟗𝟗: 𝐔𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 1

High Rankers were at the top of the pyramid formed by countless Hunters.

Among them, the top High-Rankers, also known as Super High-Rankers, were the capstones of the pyramids, and the public’s perception of them was no different.

Objects of admiration and idols to those who dreamed of becoming Hunters.

Posters of High Rankers were hung all over the city, they appeared on huge billboards on the outer walls of buildings, and they were models for countless advertisements.

There were many Hunters who were as popular as celebrities, such as Ryu Ji-hwan or Benedict, who worked as models or actors.

They were beings who possessed wealth, honor, power, and strength that ordinary people could never have in their entire lives.

Choi Dae-soo was a similar but different example. Because of his fierce appearance, he didn’t really have a fandom.

Although he had political supporters, there weren’t as many who cheered him on as a Hunter.

Compared to him, Shamal was a hero in India.

However, he didn’t like to come forward, and he preferred to live in quiet seclusion.

Occasionally, he would only come out to resolve national crises that couldn’t be resolved by other Hunters, and then he would return to his humble home.

He lived the life of an ascetic.

Therefore, rather than a fandom, he was only surrounded by disciples who followed him as a sadhu.

However, Giovanni, who succeeded him, was different.

He had a chiseled appearance as if he had been sculpted by a god, a strong physique, and showmanship that was no less than that of a celebrity.

He was the most popular Hunter in Europe, not just Italy, and he was the celebrity of celebrities who spread countless rumors.

It was rare to find a Hunter who didn’t like him among those gathered at the banquet hall.

Perhaps that was why.

“I am 〈Pandemonium〉.”

At Giovanni’s words, the Hunters only laughed, looking taken aback, and didn’t even think about responding.

Most of them were complacent.

Who would dare to play around in a place with 200 Hunters, they thought.

“Hey, the party’s over. Wrap it up.”

Giovanni’s unilateral declaration was over.

There was weight in his words, and he had an influence that no one could match.

〈Pandemonium〉 Hunters from all over the place raised their magical powers at Giovanni’s command.

It happened in an instant, as if a trigger had been pulled.

“ㅡBlock it!!”

Harold, who realized the situation half a beat late, shouted urgently.

He hadn’t expected them to overturn the table so blatantly, and so easily at that.

At Harold’s cry, HSIU agents, Hunters who had been tipped off in advance, and other quick-witted Hunters raised their fighting spirit.

However, 〈Pandemonium〉’s attack was one step ahead.

[Realm of the Gods: Table of the Beasts]

Kim Hwan’s realm was the first to be realized, and a huge banquet table that could swallow the hall flashed and strange monsters sprang up from within it.

They weren’t like the monsters commonly seen in the Gate.

They were strange goblins as if drawn from the illustrations of scriptures or myths.

Squirm, squirm!

“Kyaaaak!”

“S-Ssave meㅡ!!”

“Damn it! What the hell is this!”

“Uwaaaah!”

Even if they were Hunters who were usually skilled in combat, they couldn’t help but be taken by surprise by the unexpected attack.

As their minds were already dulled by the hot food and strong alcohol, the Hunters were exposed to the attack without any protection.

Furthermore, Kim Hwan had a passive skill that spread confusion and fear, so its power was doubled.

“At this rate, I’ll be able to kill them all by myself. . . .”

Kwaaaaaaaaang!

Kim Hwan, who had been chanting, turned his gaze to the spot where the summoned goblins were being destroyed one after another.

“Kukuk! Do you think you’ve won just by releasing a few monsters like this?”

“Are you okay, master?! These things are so gross, why do they keep sticking to me!”

Kang Yeo-hwa’s fists and Do Kyung-hoo’s swordsmanship shattered the goblins, and thanks to that, the people around them began to come to their senses.

Kim Hwan charged towards them.

He’d just kill anyone who got in the way of escalating the chaos.

Ppaaaak!!

At that moment, a sharp pain pierced his side and his body tilted.

Kim Hwan bit his lip and checked the source of the pain.

“. . . Ruyi Bang. That little punk Xiaolong or something.”

“I’ve changed my name to Lo-an now.”

“I don’t care what the name of a guy who’s going to get his ass kicked is.”

“Same goes for you.”

Kim Hwan’s vast magical power enveloped the surroundings and unfolded a huge banquet table.

A magic circle was realized and lightning flashed.

But then.

“. . . What the hell is this.”

A semi-transparent curtain fluttered in the air and wrapped around him and the banquet table.

There was no enemy, but it felt strange.

Time flowed in reverse.

Lightning flashed in reverse from the realized magic circle, and the strokes of the characters and figures that made up the banquet table disappeared one by one.

As if a video was being played in reverse, everything returned to its starting point.

Kim Hwan was bewildered.

He watched as the magic he had tried to build up dissolved into magical particles and scattered into the air.

[Time Traveler: The Naked King]

“So you’re the ‘Battlefield Commander’.”

“Wow~ I’m so happy that a High Ranker knows my alias.”

Benedict smiled, wielding a thin staff.

“You’re being presumptuous. How dare you sabotage my banquet table?”

“I couldn’t just stand there and take it, could I? Or should I just take one for the team?”

“. . . I’ll kill you in the name of Chernobog.”

Kim Hwan released his fighting spirit towards Benedict, citing the Slavic ‘god of death’.

Kwadadadaduk!!

“But what can I do? I’m not cut out for one-on-one combat. Hey, buddy!”

“I’m not your buddy.”

“My buddy will fight for me.”

“You’re not listening to me.”

Lo-an glared, pointing his Ruyi Bang forward.

🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷

“Skinner. . . You bastard. . . What are you doing. . . !”

“Hehehe. Hey, Zachary. There’s a limit to how naive a person can be.”

“Groan! You. . . I’ll kill you. . .! I can’t. . . I can’t break this. . . !”

“You still don’t know your place.”

Zachary was trapped in the skill that Skinner had cast and couldn’t move a muscle.

A technique that used a shield in reverse to trap the opponent and gradually narrow it down.

Clickety-clack! Clickety-clack!

The space gradually tightened and the shield crushed Zachary’s body terribly.

Zachary tried his best to smash the shield, but his fighting spirit and magical power were no match for his opponent’s.

“Keuheuk. . . ! P-Please spare me. . . ! Kyaaaak!!”

Puck!

Skinner released his skill after confirming his opponent’s death.

“High Rankers aren’t as great as I thought.”

He looked at the people surrounding him and laughed openly.

The Ultimate Shield.

Skinner was the one who always stayed behind and protected the Hunters when they entered the Gate or faced a national emergency.

Even when all the tanks fell and the defense line was on the verge of collapse, he held out and protected his allies.

He was the last bastion protecting humanity and the only tank in the world’s top 10.

Such a man had just mercilessly killed a High Ranker like himself and was looking at the people with arrogant eyes.

“Have you gone mad? Skinner, are you in your right mind?”

Kuga Haruki asked, unable to hide his bewilderment.

In his eyes, the current situation was not normal.

Top-class Hunters who had everything and were living well were fighting each other.

Haruki found it hard to sympathize with what 〈Pandemonium〉 was doing.

“Hahaha. Well, I am in my right mind, more or less. Perhaps we are the only ones here who are in their right minds.”

He looked at the 〈Pandemonium〉 Hunters who were rioting everywhere and sneered as if he was happy.

The banquet was already like a scene from hell.

They were only a tenth of the total number of people, but the chaos they were causing was enough to darken the entire world.

“There’s no need to panic like that. All we have to do is subdue and judge the enemies of mankind.”

At that moment, Harold Bloom appeared, raising his magical power.

As the honed fighting spirit and energy of a seasoned veteran pierced the air like a sharp blade, even the leisurely Skinner couldn’t help but wipe the smile off his face.

“Who the hell are you. Aren’t you HSIU’s dog?”

“I had hoped that the list wasn’t true. You will die here, having overturned all the taboos.”

“Hehehe. Well, let’s see who dies.”

A strong fighting spirit surged from Skinner.

Harold didn’t wait for him to finish his preparations.

[Duel: Galloping Lance]

A huge lance made of magical power was realized in his right hand, and Harold’s body shot forward like a ray of light.

Whi━━ng!

A single flash of lightning pierced the horizon, creating a tremendous roar.

Beyond that enormous acceleration, Skinner’s low laughter could be heard.

“Hehehe. . . If that had been 0.1 seconds faster. . . I would have had a hole in my gut.”

The lance that had pierced the shield was stuck halfway into Skinner’s stomach.

“I thought you were just an old man, but you’re pretty tough.”

“No, you’re the one who’s going to die!”

At that moment, a familiar voice rang out from Skinner’s side and a Japanese sword flashed.

Zzzzzaaaang!!

“Kuk. . . ! Koga Haruki. . . ! Can’t you just stay out of this!!”

Skinner ignored his tattered left arm and activated the skill he had used to kill Zachary towards Haruki.

“Rot and writhe inside there!”

🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷

Giovanni Barberini was a beast.

He tore people apart with his bare hands and crushed Hunters with his magical power.

People tried to block him with their shields and use their skills to stop his ruthless rampage.

However, it was like trying to stop an elephant with a swarm of ants.

“Hahahahahaha! This is so much fun, so much fun! It’s even more fun than beating monsters to death!”

“Hunter Giovanni! Why are you suddenly acting like this!”

“Come to your senses, you’re a High Ranker of Italy!”

“Hmm?”

Giovanni fired concentrated magical power at those who were yapping at him like a cannon.

ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ Boom!!!

In an instant, four or five people were crushed like dough.

People couldn’t help but turn pale at the king’s tyranny.

Who could stop the world’s second-ranked outlaw?

Neither Choi Dae-soo nor Shamal were present here.

At that moment, a sharp mace swung towards Giovanni.

He tried to block the attack with his hand, but he noticed something strange and quickly unfolded his shield to block it.

Clang!

The shield that had been hit by the mace crumbled into pieces like a stone statue.

Giovanni looked at Namir and smiled broadly.

“Hahahahahaha! So this is the famous half-demon queen’s ‘petrification’. If I had blocked it with my bare hands, I wouldn’t have had any hands left?”

“It’s okay. Next time, I’ll aim for your head instead of your hands.”

“Oh, but I still have things to do. Since Your Majesty attacked me first, I guess it’s okay for me to attack too.”

An enormous magical power gathered in Giovanni’s body, and a sapphire-colored banquet table was realized in front of him.

“Sister, dodge it!”

Crow, who had gasped, grabbed Namir’s arm and pulled her away.

“It’s too late.”

Along with Giovanni’s low voice, a terrifying magic poured towards them.

“I am the Poison Blade, the blade that will cut this world.”

He turned his gaze straight ahead to look at Namir’s form, which his poison would have melted.

“You fool, you sound like a blade.”

However, what Giovanni saw was Siwoo’s sneer looking at him with cold eyes beyond his frozen poison. looking at him with cold eyes.
