Damn Necromancer-Chapter 289
Chapter 289: Ranking Battle (9)
Zone K, District 2.
The proxy of the 53rd Demon Lord, ‘Caron’, knelt while covered in blood.
“Haa…… Haa…….”
He barely passed the 4th Wave. His breath reached his chin.
At first, he was confident. Two mines, one barrier. He thought it was a balanced build. The 1st Wave was easy, and he managed to block the 2nd somehow.
The problem started from the 3rd.
The number of pouring monsters increased exponentially. Not only that, but the quality changed as well.
Hell Hounds mixed in instead of ordinary hounds, and High-ranking Demons appeared instead of Imps.
“Crazy…….”
The barrier was torn.
One mine was smashed.
Two other proxies died.
He barely managed to block it, but only ruins remained.
Caron opened the system window with trembling hands.
[4th Wave Clear Record]
[Zone D District 2: 47 minutes 22 seconds]
[Zone E District 1: 52 minutes 18 seconds]
[Zone B District 3: Collapse]
[Zone C District 1: Collapse]
……
[Zone A District 1: 6 minutes 41 seconds]
“……What?”
Caron’s eyes widened roundly.
6 minutes.
While he fought until blood burst for 47 minutes, that guy finished in 6 minutes.
His finger trembled as he pressed the ranking table.
[Current Ranking]
[1st Place: Zone A District 1 (Kim Minwoo) ― Total Score 12,847]
[2nd Place: Zone Z District 1 (Leon Kaiser) ― Total Score 3,231]
[3rd Place: Zone F District 2 ― Total Score 2,892]
……
[11th Place: Zone D District 2 (Caron) ― Score 1,204]
The score difference was over three times.
― Insurance Profit: +12,470
― Total Resources: 24,891
[2nd Place: Leon Kaiser (Zone Z District 1)]
― Total Score: 8,234
― Territory Preservation Rate: 88%
[3rd Place: Zone F District 2]
― Total Score: 4,127
The numbers were speaking.
The score difference between 1st and 2nd place was six times.
Even the expression ‘overwhelming’ was insufficient.

Somewhere in the Demon Realm.
The Demon God’s voice rang out in the space where the 72 Demon Lords were gathered.
<The Middle Ranking Battle has ended.>
The massive eye moved slowly.
<To the one who showed how to protect best, I grant the second fragment.>
[Treasure Map 2nd Fragment is awarded to Kim Minwoo!]
A stir spread among the Demon Lords.
Some clicked their tongues, others narrowed their eyes with interest.
Especially the 23 Lords participating in the Upper Ranking Battle, excluding Vulcan, were all staring intently at Kim Minwoo.
Already two treasure maps.
If he gathers just one more, no less than the Demon God’s legacy passes to him.
‘We’ve seen enough of his skill.’
‘Dangerous guy. Enough to work in the Upper…….’
The gazes of a few Demon Lords met stealthily.
Everyone nodded in one mind and heart.
Upper Ranking Battle.
For their own power and glory, Kim Minwoo must die there.
If not…….
Perhaps Vulcan might really end up sitting in the Demon Realm Rank 1 seat.
While the atmosphere heated up subtly like that.
Only Andromalius, ranked 72nd who returned from the Ranking Battle, smiled quietly.
‘As expected, my eyes weren't wrong.’
Kim Minwoo.
An unusual human since the first meeting.
And the betting result was……. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
‘Successful.’
No, it was a jackpot beyond simply successful.
