114, Chapter 24. Guide to Sin (3)
Taesan raised his head at the approaching crowd.
“hi’?”
“Are you younger than you thought?”
“Appearances are meaningless. Yeah… I’m young. About twenty at most?”
The guides of sin inspected Mount Tai with no tension.
Taishan counted them.
The last of the four did not show up anymore.
“Are there only four?”
I knew all the guides from the third tier would come.
Knowing that Taesan had defeated Jagan from the second rank, and considering that Horian had died, it was the right decision for everyone to come down. But only four.
[They’ve been stuck here for decades. I wonder if it was in the past… All the strength has faded now.]
“I thought everything would come…
Doesn’t matter.”
Whether there were many or few, it meant nothing to him. The woman awkwardly raised her hand.
“Uh… Hero. hi?”
[It’s nice to meet you, but we’re not supposed to say hello, right?]
“That’s right.”
The eyes of the guides, who smiled shyly, began to sink.
In an instant, the air tightened. Taesan pulled out his sword.
[You activated reconnaissance.]
[Hajjing Roia]
[Level: 65]
[Stamina: 3165]
[Equipped weapon: spear]
[The one who surrendered.]
A man with brown hair and an Arab look. He was holding a trident and glaring at Mount Tai.
[Baben Ruata]
[Level: 65]
[Stamina: 2995]
[Equipped weapon: Dagger]
[The one who surrendered.]
A man wearing black clothes clinging to his entire body without holding any weapon. It probably looked like a bandit.
[Arinesia Clius]
[Health: 2350]
[Equipped weapon: staff]
[The one who surrendered.]
She was the only woman. He had long blue hair and held a wand, making him look like a wizard.
[Kasian]
[Health: 2991]
[Equipped weapon: Bow]
[The one who surrendered.]
And lastly, an archer.
The distribution of roles was complete. Taesan shrugged. Awakening the muscles of the whole body, the awakening of the mind began.
“You don’t have to make a long story, right?”
“of course.”
With the answer, Taesan kicked his feet.
[You activated a deer that walks the wind.]
[You activated acceleration.]
It was very fast. They were taken aback by the approach that far exceeded their expectations
.
But still, an adventurer on the 30th floor. started responding quickly. The wizard waved his wand.
[Arinesia activated madness.]
[No judgment required!]
“Uh huh?”
Madness bounces off. Cassian shot the bow. It was the power and speed befitting the 30th floor.
Taesan manipulated the wind without avoiding it. The combined wind twisted the arrow’s trajectory. The arrow
passed without even grazing.
“Kuk!”
Kaaang!
Hajing’s spear collided with Taishan’s sword. Ha Jing was startled by the power he felt through the window.
‘You’re stronger than me!’
In terms of stats, Taesan had the upper hand. He became stronger to the limit on the 30th floor, and of course he believed that he would have the upper hand, so gaps were created in his movements.
Blue flames rise from Taishan’s sword. He deflects Hajing’s spear and inserts it into his chest.
[226 damage to Hajing.]
“Wait!”
“What kind of damage!”
They do not stand still. A wizard chants magic and an archer draws a bow. The thief tries to drive a dagger into Taesan’s back.
[You activated Dekaravia’s Distorted Vegetation.]
And the roots swarm. They hurriedly stop their attacks and distance themselves from the plants of black energy that strike the room.
“Some magic!”
“I’m not a demon…!”
Kwajik.
While they were doing maintenance, Taesan continued to press Hajing.
Hajjing did not stand still. I tried to get out of the crisis somehow by activating my skills and spearmanship.
But all of them were blocked.
Skills were neutralized by Taesan’s light movement, and spearmanship was pierced by Storm Scar’s sword. In an instant, more than half of his physical strength was lost.
“Do something!”
“Even if you say so!”
[You have activated Frost Arrow.]
[You have activated Fireball.]
While Taesan pressed Hajing, she continued to pressure the other three with magic, black magic, and spirit skills. Arrinesia exclaimed in excitement at the attack that flew at the exact moment she was preparing to do something.
“You have eyes on your back, what the heck!”
Taesan’s visibility
was close to 100%. In fact, it was safe to say that there was no blind spot. It was a check that was difficult to understand for them, who had at most 40-50% proficiency.
Taesan swung his sword roughly. Hajing’s spear was pushed by the force and shook violently. Taesan inserted the sword and raised it.
“ah.”
The window flew in the sky. Taishan’s sword pierced Hajing’s chest.
“Ah ah… [You
won
against Hajing Roia .]
“Profit!”
Arinesia gritted her teeth and waved her hands. As her mana drained away, the magic was implemented.
[Arinesia activated storm arrows.]
Kaga gak!
The wind splits and creates huge arrows. Taesan, who struck the arrow, takes on this pole.
“It’s strong.”
It was by far the strongest magic he had ever seen.
If it fits properly, it seemed to have the power to lose hundreds of stamina.
[Middle level magic… at least one on the 30th floor is useful.]
Arinesia glared at Mount Tae with bloody eyes and waved her hands.
arrows were fired It was so large that it filled the room, and there was nowhere to escape.
And I had no intention of avoiding it.
[You have triggered a forced duel. For 10 seconds, it cannot deal damage to you except for Baben Ruita.]
Arrows that hit Taesan explode. It loses its magic and scatters here and there.
“Huh huh?”
Taesan rushed at them, unable to figure out what had happened.
guide to sin.
they weren’t weak. If the forces of the four were simply combined, they could put pressure on Mount Tai.
However, their connection was very clumsy and they were not prepared.
The bandits couldn’t aim for Taesan’s back, and the archers couldn’t put any pressure on them. In the case of wizards, no magic was manifested in the continued containment.
The belatedly manifested magic was also meaninglessly lost due to the forced duel.
You probably haven’t matched breaths with each other. Since there was no one to fight with, it was natural.
And even if their connection was perfect, nothing would change.
A forced duel that makes it impossible for anyone but the target to interfere.
As long as there was that, there was no point in pushing Taesan with numbers.
The result was this.
“Cheuk.”
“It was quite annoying.”
The chest of the last remaining bandit was pierced. I ran away and tried to get out somehow, but I couldn’t hide from the scouts. The life in the thief’s eyes
disappeared.
[You have won against Baben Ruita.]
[Your level has risen.]
[Your spirit level has been raised. Agility is permanently increased by 36. Strength is permanently increased by 21. Intelligence has risen by 19 permanently. Stamina has risen by 100 permanently.]
[You have acquired the special activation skill [Stealth].]
You have won against four guides and your level has risen by 4. His stats rose more than that, and he also
acquired two skills.
“Status window.”
[Kangtaesan]
[Level: 6
] [Shield: 329/329]
[Health: 3830/3830]
[Mana: 716/716]
[u}7: 44/44]
[Strength: 1246]
[Intelligence: 915]
[Agility: 1102]
[Attack Power + 145]
[Defense Power + 172]
[The target is in excellent condition.]
All stats have risen by about 100. I got it by catching four guides at a level where I had to go through about two floors to become stronger.
There was even a skill there.
[Special activation skill: Stealth]
[Mana consumption: 20]
[Proficiency level: 1%]
[Hide yourself. cover the chin It’s still very immature.]
It was a version of the skill that activated Invisibility. As the explanations were similar, there seemed to be no significant difference in the effect.
It’s probably a skill used by those who haven’t learned magic. It didn’t mean much, but it wasn’t bad.
[Beginner Magic: Wind Explosion]
[Mana Consumption: 9]
[Proficiency Level: 1%]
[Explodes the wind]
A very simple explanation. The effect was as simple as the description. Taesan raised a finger.
[You activated Wind Burst.]
Perong!
The wind blew from the front of Mount Tai. He slapped his cheek violently and tried to push himself away.
The power itself wasn’t that great, but like lightning,
there was no delay, and the location where it was activated was not limited to Taishan. It was a useful enough magic in terms of restricting the opponent’s actions or blocking projectiles.
“Then when are you coming?”
These four will not be the end. According to the ghost, there were still five more left.
[Well… I don’t think he’ll come,]
muttered the ghost in an ambiguous tone.
“He is dead.”
A man’s voice rang in the silence. All four jewel lights in front of him were out.
“…all four?”
“okay.”
The manager said in a voice that sounded like a groan.
“All… dead.”
“So fast? Not even two hours have passed!”
someone shouted in denial.
“Even if you don’t win, you won’t be able to escape! Do not lie!”
“I thought so too. That’s why I sent it.”
The difference in equipment is absolute. An adventurer on the 24th floor, no matter how great an adventurer the opponent is. It would take a very long time to break through them wearing the 30th floor of equipment. They believed that they could escape without much difficulty even if there was a problem.
“But… they’re all dead.”
Silence broke out again.
The manager barely opened his mouth.
“Should we go down and fight?”
“…that’s not an attractive proposition. This is the guy who killed four people in two hours. I don’t think six will change anything.”
The woman who regained her composure murmured. It wasn’t a bad decision. But it wasn’t even the right answer.
“If there was a demon…
a demon who left the 3rd tier a while ago.
A guide who has been allowed to go deeper by the leaders. They are permitted guides where they are not permitted.
At first, I sent jealousy and jealousy. I turned on the light in my eyes saying I would check with my own two eyes what was different. But in the short time we spent together, I realized.
That demon was strong like a monster. Even though they were on the same floor, they had skills that could not be matched at all.
He could have been an opponent. But the manager shook his head.
“He is already down. And he said he’s not coming. It is a meaningless
imagination.”
“Then what should I do…
They couldn’t answer and were confused. The manager somehow rolled his head and opened his mouth.
“Let’s wait for now. He’s still on the 24th floor.”
Their location is on the 30th floor. It takes time to come down. A man frowns.
“Give me time to get stronger?”
“Our odds are low anyway. In that case, I will give you time and contact you below.”
“…Are you waiting for the absent leader to return?”
They moaned at the disastrous decision.
It’s grandiose, but the conclusion was one. They said that since they couldn’t defeat the adventurers on the 24th floor, they were praying for the leadership to come out soon.
If your prayer succeeds, you will survive; if your prayer fails, you will die.
It was a choice that did not affect their ability at all.
“But I have no other means.”
The manager protested. Others also silently agreed.
“Then the conclusion is mine. Contact us and run away. We’ll try to hold out somehow until the leadership gets better.”
“…M is.”
Someone muttered sadly. They all smiled bitterly.
Taesan, who was resting against the wall, murmured.
“He’s not coming.”
waited about two hours. It was enough time for him to realize his ideal and come down, but he didn’t even show his nose.
“Your prediction was correct.”
[The guides are broken-hearted. That’s why they are cowards and postpone judgment. It’s disappointing though.]
The ghost muttered in a pitiful tone. [Perhaps
they decided to wait until the leadership came out .
Is that a good thing or a bad thing?]
“It doesn’t matter either way.”
It doesn’t matter if the leadership comes down. Preparations are made for it.
“But… I guess I’ll have to give it some time.”
[Huh? Why?]
“Because a quest has appeared.”
Taesan looked into the sky.
A return to Earth was written on the quest window.
Level up with skill
