Chapter 91: Chapter 91: Level Reset
Seojun fell to his knees, pain surging through his body. Struggling to breathe, he managed to shout, "Run! Get out of here!" to the mother and child he had just saved.
With fear and gratitude in their eyes, the mother called out, "Thank you!" before grabbing her child and fleeing the scene.
Huno, Seojun's loyal companion, hurried to his side, nudging him gently as Seojun gasped for air. His vision blurred, and a sharp 'Ding!' echoed in his ears.
[System Alert: Emergency Transport to Host's Space Initiating.]
Seojun gritted his teeth, blood dribbling from his mouth. "Are you serious, system? Now?!" he muttered, frustration and pain mixed in his voice.
Another violent cough shook his body, spilling more blood onto the ground. Before Seojun could react, a Lizardman charged at him, spear poised to strike.
But Huno sprang into action, grabbing a broken piece of metal in his jaws and using it as a makeshift shield. The spear clanged against the metal, and the Lizardman was forced back. Huno stumbled but quickly recovered, standing protectively in front of Seojun.
"H-Huno..." Seojun whispered weakly, feeling his strength fade as darkness began to close in.
[System Alert: Host Will Be Transported in 5...4...]
Seojun's vision darkened, and he teetered on the edge of consciousness. Just then, another Lizardman struck, sending Huno flying with a powerful blow. Huno hit the ground hard, whimpering in pain, but he didn't give up. He rushed back to Seojun, standing over him, growling and barking furiously at the approaching monsters.
Huno shut his eyes tight, bracing for the next attack. But just as the Lizardman raised its weapon to strike, it was suddenly blasted away by a powerful force.
Huno opened his eyes, his tail wagging with relief as he saw Alex standing there, holding the Lizardman's spear.
"Good boy," Alex muttered, though his voice was strained with pain. Huno barked happily, but his joy turned to worry when Alex clutched his chest in agony.
A system notification flashed in front of Alex:
WARNING!
[Curse Activated. Severe pain detected due to the forceful use of disabled skills.]
"D-Damn it..." Alex groaned, his body trembling from the curse ravaging his insides. But with no time to lose, he steeled himself for what was to come.
As the Lizardmen circled them, their eyes filled with hunger, Alex knew he had to act fast. Summoning all his remaining strength, he raised the spear high above his head. With a fierce determination, he roared, "Earthshatter!"
The ground beneath him trembled as a shockwave of immense power surged from the point of impact when he slammed the spear down. The force of the attack sent the Lizardmen flying, their bodies crashing into the surroundings as they were utterly overpowered by the warrior's might.
Panting heavily, Alex stood protectively over Seojun and Huno. "Hang in there, Seojun," he whispered, his voice filled with unyielding resolve.
As the Lizardmen attacked, throwing spears at Alex, Seojun, and Huno, a figure descended from above, stirring up a cloud of dust. Alex coughed and squinted through the haze. A massive, muscular berserker with black hair and a smirk landed heavily, his presence commanding.
"Great job holding on, curse kid!" the berserker yelled.
Alex recognized him. "Guildmaster Dae-won," he muttered.
Dae-won, with a commanding tone, ordered, "Take the citizens to a safer area!"
A helicopter hovered above, and people began jumping down. One of them, a determined girl, approached Alex and Huno. Huno growled at her, guarding Seojun.
"It's alright, Huno. She's an ally," Alex reassured, his voice barely above a whisper. Reluctantly, Huno stepped aside, and the girl carefully picked up Seojun, cradling him in her arms. With a swift motion, she lifted Alex and Huno, preparing for a daring escape.
"Hang on," the girl said urgently, her tone filled with resolve.
In a single fluid motion, the girl leaped, carrying Alex and Seojun. They landed on a rooftop, the girl setting Seojun and Alex down gently. The rooftop was a temporary sanctuary from the chaos below.
Alex, barely conscious, managed to say, "Thank you." The girl nodded in acknowledgment before swiftly jumping back into the fray to rescue more citizens.
As Alex's vision faded, he saw the girl jumped down again and noticed a card that's probably from the unconscius man he carried.
As the battle raged on, the Lizardmen continued their relentless assault,
Guildmaster Dae-won, the towering berserker, stood amidst the chaos. His double-headed warhammer swung with a mighty force, each swing demolishing the Lizardmen with brutal efficiency. His black hair whipped around his face as he roared over the clamor of battle, "Is this all you've got? Watch and learn what real power looks like!"
Amidst the chaos, the girl noticed a card and seeing it's content "Boss," She threw a card toward Dae-won.
With a swift, practiced motion, Dae-won caught the card in mid-air. His eyes skimmed the contents as he took a brief pause from his relentless assault.
Without waiting for a response, the girl turned and leaped back into the fray, her focus now on rescuing more citizens. As she moved, Dae-won continued to wield his warhammer with commanding skill, his strikes driving the remaining Lizardmen away with ease.
Dae-won studied the gray card closely, his brow furrowing in concentration. The card was simple, its gray surface marked with stark black text:
Name: Han Seojun NON-AWAKENED (Rank F) Age: 23 Sex: Male
Strength: F
Stamina: F
Agility: F
Mana: F
Dae-won stared at the gray card, he swung his double-headed warhammer down hard, slamming it into the ground. The powerful shockwave exploded the lizardmen bodies making the whole area a massacre.
Standing amidst the wreckage, Dae-won grinned. "So the curse kid wasn't lying. He really is F-Rank," he said, impressed by the display.
He walked over to the dungeon portal with a determined stride. Grabbing a Lizardman by the neck that just got out. he lifted it off the ground effortlessly. The Lizardman struggled and gasped in fear. It's spear can't injured his Body.
Dae-won smirked, his presence radiating a dangerous aura and he muttered, "Interesting. I can't wait to figure out the secrets you're hiding and how you managed to fool the global system."
In a little more strength the Lizardmen head exploded making green bloods splatter everywhere.
His voice was a chilling whisper, laden with menace. "You've managed to fool the global system, but not me. Just wait, I'll uncover every dark secret you're hiding—Han Seojun"
