– Volume 3, Chapter 8
58. Easy mode. Choi Joong-hyeok (2)
Choi Joong-hyeok looked at the spacious room happily.
There were so many people in the city hall right now that every room was full.
However, he is using this large room alone.
“This is power.”
It was so good. It was
for this that he worked hard and
increased his influence.
“Bastard. Are you okay?”
A woman with long hair says bluntly. Next to him, a boy with a youthful appearance was also biting his lip.
Their bodies were wrapped in thick chains.
Choi Joong-hyeok laughed at them.
“Wouldn’t that be good? It is a power that you ignorant bastards will never have.”
“I am playing. If you hadn’t done the tricks, you’d be dead.”
Lee Tae-yeon gnashed his teeth and Choi Jung-hyeok agreed.
“Well, I’ll admit that. Strong.”
It was said calmly, but it was at a phenomenal level. It was a difference in strength that would have shattered all four limbs if they were attached to each other head-on with the monstrous strength that would bend the chain and crack the wall.
‘But luck is with me.’
Choi Joong-hyeok twisted his lips.
A special quest to come out. When everyone was happy, Choi Joong-hyeok got goosebumps.
He thought he would never be able to meet Alone Mode forever.
According to what they posted on the community, clearing the Alone Mode was a long way off, but unlike the Normal Mode, it became a suitable target for confrontation.
So I despised them and openly showed my malice, but I came out like this.
I don’t think everything he posts on the community is real, but if any part of it is true, his power is literally shattered. I was terrified and somehow found a way, but
I came out without any other way.
Luckily for him, however, he was summoned near City Hall, so he was able to enter City Hall without encountering any monsters.
There, he realized that those who were talking about Alone Mode were very weak people and quickly caught them. There was resistance, but it was surprisingly easily overpowered.
Choi Joong-hyeok realized. Most of the Alone Modes are weak people, so even they can be caught.
Well, as the community said,
if I was crazy, everyone would only focus on holding on.
So I was careless. Even when Choi Joong-hyeok and Lee Tae-yeon appeared, he tried to hold them by force.
“Monstrous bastards.”
Choi Jung-hyeok stuck out his tongue. But the two were different. He tried to catch Choi Joong-hyeok, shaking off the Easy Mode players who were trying to catch him with a single blow. He was frightened by the bull’s momentum and had no choice but to run away in a hurry.
But he won.
“This is why people have to use their brains.”
Captured Alone mode people. Taking their lives as hostages, the two had no choice but to be captured quietly.
“Idiots.”
Choi Joong-hyeok laughed at the two. Even they cannot break free of the chains that are wrapped around them in several layers.
“I’m a hostage and I should have stepped out. That’s why you are the one who gets eaten.”
he is different
He was also a prey on Earth.
He repeatedly tricked fools into making false contracts, robbed them of money, and ran away.
He considered himself a winner. It didn’t change even after entering the labyrinth.
“Everybody is so stupid.”
They entered the labyrinth. To a world where there is no law or order, risking one’s life. Then people have to live according to the world.
But everyone wanted to keep order and the law on Earth. Everyone tried to help each other and be together.
He wasn’t that stupid.
Choi Joong-hyeok quickly entered the labyrinth and figured out the level of difficulty. The first realization of the separate dimension led to several conclusions
.
The number of people who can enter the labyrinth is limited. Even if the dimension splits, there are too many Easy Mode players to create an empty dimension.
That is, it can be controlled.
With the conclusion he moved quickly.
They embraced those who were at the forefront, even if only a little bit.
It is a place where there is no law or order.
Even a light push can make people go crazy.
I took the people gathered like that and started controlling them.
At first, there were quite a few people who objected, but when they were dealt with with violence and conciliation, their control soon became a daily routine.
With the exception of a few protesters, everyone obeyed him.
It was so alluring.
“After all, it’s a place where people gather, and that’s how ugly it is.”
Lee Tae-yeon sarcastically looked at Choi Joong-hyeok, who was leisurely leaning back on the sofa.
“okay. You did very well. How long can you survive by living so hard’?”
Choi Joong-hyeok snorted.
Clearly, he chose Easy Mode. Its limits were not clear, so it
was clear.
Lee Tae-yeon and Kang Jun-hyuk. Those in Alone Mode were really strong. The hard mods from outside also had a power that was incomparable to him.
No matter how strong he became, there was a wall that he could never catch up to.
“Force is not everything.”
One law from the earth. Power and status have nothing to do with each other.
He dominates Easy Mode. There is a difference in power, but the absolute number is much higher. The one with the most voice wins, so I thought of doing something based on that.
They were for that.
If you hold on to the other guys in Alone Mode, you can use them as he pleases.
“Idiots.”
good guys.
but it’s weak
That’s why it’s used by someone as smart as him.
“The future is bright.”
“i think so too.”
A roar erupted from outside the door.
Kwaaang!
“Ouch!”
Choi Joong-hyeok was frightened and lowered his body.
The dust spreads thickly.
“what!”
A man with a tired face was standing in front of the door.
A man with a stern look.
Dry muscles come into view.
Joonghyeok Choi.
I saw a face I missed.
And there were also people I missed in a different way.
Contrary to his memories, his youthful face. Perhaps because he was still immature, the change in emotion was immediately visible on his expression.
Lee Tae-yeon was staring blankly at him, chained up.
‘long time no see.’
I had several conversations with the community, but seeing the faces in person gave me a new feeling.
Taesan looked at her for a moment, then turned his gaze.
The face of a young boy staring blankly at him, just like hers.
“Are you Junhyeok Kang?”
“Ah yes. Yes…
Kang Jun-hyeok, who was chained up, nodded hurriedly. Their gaze was directed to the side of Mount Tae, not to it.
“That’s…
[Oh? Can I see these?]
The ghost muttered as he looked at him.
“Let’s talk about it later.”
that buck
Taesan moved on.
Choi Joong-hyeok, who flinched for a moment, smiled.
“Okay. Are you Kang Tae-san?”
“Ah…
Lee Tae-yeon and Kang Jun-hyuk burst into exclamations.
‘Are you younger than I thought?’
While Lee Tae-yeon thought to herself, Tae-san stared blankly at him without answering. Goosebumps rose for a moment at the sunken gaze, but Choi Jung-hyeok tried to ignore it.
He has a hostage. Seeing that he broke down the door, he must be strong, but he can’t get his hands on him.
“older brother!”
Belatedly, Joong-geun came to help Hui-yeon.
“Ugh… Joong-geun. thank you.”
Hwiyeon stumbled and stood up. She looked at Tae-san resentfully for a moment, then
bit her lip when she saw Lee Tae-yeon, Kang Jun-hyuk, and Choi Jung-hyeok tied up in chains.
“ You…
“Everyone who will come has come.”
Choi Joong-hyeok leaned his back on the sofa with a carefree attitude.
Hwiyeon said coldly.
“Do it in moderation. If you cross this line, I will not stand still.”
“What are you entitled to?”
Choi Joong-hyeok asked back.
“I even killed people.
What did you do? We’re just fighting each other so we’re just holding on to each other so that they don’t bother me. But why are you trying to pressure me like that?”
“This…
Hwiyeon gritted her teeth.
She also had ears. Among the people she saved from Easy Mode, there were people talking about Choi Joong-hyeok. That is to say, there were quite a few people he dealt with without anyone noticing.
But there is no evidence. If the opponent was a monster, I could just hit it, but since I was a human
, I couldn’t figure out
how to respond .
Eventually, Hwiyeon gave up and asked calmly.
“What do you want?”
“What do you want?”
“Don’t turn around. Aren’t you making a fuss because you want something?”
Choi Joong-hyeok smiled at the cold words.
“Simple. Give me command.”
“For you in Easy Mode?”
“I know you are strong. But
has anyone ever conducted it?”
Hwiyeon couldn’t answer. As an ordinary college student, her experience of facilitating group assignments was the end of giving orders to people. Of course, I have never managed an unspecified number of people.
“I have ruled over people so many times.”
“There must be many people like you besides you.”
“okay. There must be many Anyang people. But did they manage one mode like me?”
Choi Joong-hyeok said confidently.
“I am the earth and the labyrinth. You have a track record of managing both.”
When it came out like this, Huiyeon had nothing to say. Is it true that he managed the entire labyrinth in some way?
“I only want one thing. not my and command. Guaranteed two things. Then we will release them.”
Choi Joong-hyeok said calmly. I was sure that the other person would accept it.
They killed monsters, not humans. No matter how he
came out, there was a judgment that the opponent would only trap him, but not kill him.
Hwiyeon couldn’t answer. Still young, she couldn’t decide what was right.
“What I can judge for myself is this…
“If you, in hard mode, can’t judge, who’s to judge? To leave it to those with shallow powers on Earth?”
Hwiyeon hesitated. she was still young It was hard to answer when the other person insisted so strongly .
It was finally time for her to agree.
“What would be the guarantee?”
Taesan, who had been silent for a while, opened his mouth. Choi Jung-hyeok’s face distorted at the interruption in the car that was going well.
“Do you think that guarantee will save your life? If you twist your neck here, who’s going to shout that you didn’t keep your promise? Who will punish the one who will kill you?”
Taesan said nonchalantly.
“You are mistaken.”
Choi Jung-hyeok thought he was smart. He did not observe order and law and oppressed the people.
However, he also forgot that he could not be followed by order and law. Taesan took a step forward. Choi Joong-hyeok trembled at the approaching Mount Tae.
Seeing Taesan’s sunken eyes, Choi Junghyeok realized.
That the man in front of me is not a man who belongs to order and law like him. In an instant, an eerie sensation hit Choi Jung-hyeok.
“Do not come!”
Taesan didn’t answer. Seeing him slowly approaching, Choi Joong-hyeok hurriedly picked up the walkie-talkie. I was thinking of contacting those holding hostages from afar and telling them to kill one.
The moment he was about to say something, the sound of a grinding wind rang out.
Kwajik.
The radio in his hand broke in Taesan’s hand.
“uh’?”
Taeyeon’s eyes widened. The fact that the walkie-
talkie was in Taesan’s hand means that he moved it himself and took it. But she didn’t see anything.
“This bastard!”
Choi Joong-hyuk gnashed his teeth. It wasn’t foolishly talking confidently with just one hostage. he pulled the lever
Kurleung!
Rebars fell from the ceiling with a crashing sound.
“Search!”
Huge rebars
fall under the acceleration of gravity. Taesan did not avoid the rebar that would crack the ground and collapse the building. The rebars hit Mount Taesan vigorously.
[Kang Tae-san’s interception has been activated.]
[0 damage to Kang Tae-san.]
[0 damage to Kang Tae-san.]
[0 damage to Kang Tae-san.]
[0 damage to Kang Tai-san.]
Tae-san kicks the fallen rebars again. went ahead
“Uh uh uh.”
In the system window that appeared in front of my eyes, Choi
Joong-hyeok’s head stopped momentarily.
The defense of the players is there, but it is not enough to block the rebar of that size. I’ve already tested it. Even people with over 5 defense will receive close to 20 damage.
0 there? No damage at all?
he cried out in fear.
“come out!”
Quaang!
Doors inside the building open and people rush out. They seem to have been waiting outside
, and they rush around the building.
“What is so much?”
Jung-geun, who had been watching blankly, was shocked. Hundreds of people surrounded them.
Choi Joong-hyeok shouted harshly.
“Kill!”
Taesan watched the hundreds of supplies.
Level up with skill
