– Volume 8, Episode 22
197. The Earth on the verge of destruction (2)
“Something… it’s hard to express in words… something is different.”
she muttered with an ambiguous face.
Taeyeon Lee is the one who attacked the Alone Mode. There is no such thing as poor observation or judgment. she asked with sharp eyes.
“Taesan. Show me the status window.”
“I’m sorry, but that won’t work.”
“why?”
Lee Taeyeon was taken aback. It was because there was no reason Taesan would not show Sang Taechang.
“There is a reason for that.”
However, as Taesan, whose stats have changed, he could not show them.
“It’s not important anyway, is it? It’s not harmful, so don’t worry.”
At Taesan’s answer, Lee Taeyeon quietly looked at Taesan. Several lights shone in his eyes.
“…okay?”
“That’s it.”
“okay. Then it’s done.”
Lee Taeyeon didn’t ask any further. It seemed as if he had guessed something.
“Then I’ll get to the point.”
she said with a calm face.
“The next wave starts soon.”
Taesan nodded.
A wave in which monsters attack all-out. Each time it returned to Earth, a wave occurred.
In the first wave after the last return, humanity took Seoul.
Half of the hard players died in the second wave.
In the third wave, humanity could only defend a small city.
This was the fourth wave. And at this time, mankind was annihilated.
Taesan searched his memory and recalled what he had said then.
“How many are there?”
“Two S-class. Dozens of A-levels. Hundreds of B-class. And the apostle.”
Taeyeon said calmly.
They were monsters that she could definitely say was over. In fact, in previous lives, everyone had died because they had failed to win against the apostles.
In fact, defeat was certain.
However, Taesan had no intention of defeating him.
“I’ll deal with two s-class. Take care of the apostle for a little bit. I’ll take care of it quickly and go to help.”
Taeyeon’s eyes shook.
“What do you mean? Not one S-class, but two. No matter how you are…
“There’s no one else anyway, right?”
At Taesan’s words, Lee Taeyeon closed her mouth.
It was as Taesan said. Two S-ranks and four. They were monsters that only Taesan and himself could deal with. So either take the apostle or take on two s-ranks. One of them had to be done.
Taesan was called for that, but Lee Taeyeon couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.
“…Unexpectedly, he accepts meekly.”
Taesan always complained and complained about every choice. Even so, I didn’t reject everything and followed it, but I thought I’d complain a little this time too.
“Why don’t you come all the way here and complain?”
Taesan shrugged. Lee Tae-yeon sent a puzzled look.
“It has definitely changed.”
“okay?”
Taesan smiled and sat down.
“Then let’s talk about it for the first time in a while.”
“…story?”
“It’s just a story. About the Alone Mode you settled into.”
In a previous life, Taeyeon Lee had told him about Alone Mode. What was on this
floor and what items did you get?
At that time, Taesan was in Easy Mode, so he was fascinated by most of the stories.
But now he was in Alone mode. I was thinking of having another conversation to sort out the information.
Taeyeon smiled.
“You said you didn’t want to hear it, so what did you say about your change of heart?”
“Since it’s all over, I need to listen to something like this.”
“Good. I was frustrated because I had no one to confide in other than you.”
She started talking about the Alone Mode one by one. Her expression was very bright, probably because it was the story of the long-awaited.
“And the 45th floor. The secret room over there is a bit special.”
“Are you special?”
“huh. There are things you don’t get in the normal way. That’s why I felt it…”
Tae-san put her words into a corner of his head.
“And in Alone mode, the difficulty level suddenly
went up after a certain floor. Were you similar?”
“Izzy had something like that. The difficulty level changes every 51st floor.”
“that’s right. But in Alone mode, it was much worse.”
Lee Taeyeon trembled.
“Because I was about to die. Besides, the 51st floor is so unique that I risked my life trying to pass there. ah. Still, that was good. There was a hidden room on the 51st floor, but it was a little bit unique, so I got some pretty good stuff out of it.”
What lies ahead and what lies ahead.
Put each of them in your head.
Small talk continued after that. Lee Taeyeon smiled as if she were curious.
“Something goes well. So far, it hasn’t worked at all. amazing.”
It was because Taesan entered Alone Mode with her, but she didn’t know. Taesan smiled without speaking.
We talked for a long time like that.
And it’s over.
“Then, it’s time… it’s time.”
Taeyeon Lee clenched her fists. Her body was trembling slightly.
Taesan looked at her and opened his mouth.
“You…
why didn’t you go back to the past?
Why did he die holding it in his hand?
I tried to ask that, but Taesan shook his head.
“I’ll see you live.”
It wasn’t something to ask now. After everything is over, I’ll ask.
“yes.”
Taeyeon smiled faintly.
“That’s true.”
Joong-geun looked over the barrier with a puzzled face.
“I knew a day like this would come someday, but this makes me very uncomfortable.”
Destruction was virtually certain. All kinds of shouts and shouts were echoing in the city.
In his gaze, he saw Lee Chang-chun.
His face was white, but he still held his weapon with a firm face.
“It looks surprisingly fine. It’s not strange even if it becomes dead .
Whew. I have to accept it too. After all, I lived a long time in a situation where everyone was dying. This is good enough. wealthy merchant.”
“Is there a merchant or something to search for?”
I put the words I put in my mouth at that time and wait.
And hear the monster’s cry.
It was the beginning of a wave.
“Wow Mr. I will turn really. What did you say you have to deal with?”
“Two S ranks.”
“…see you in the afterlife. My brother will probably go first. Please wait.”
“don’t worry.”
Taesan waved his hands and gave strength to his feet.
“Because I have no intention of going.”
Wow!
body accelerates
Unlike previous incarnations, there is no big jump and full scouting, so you can’t locate it. But it doesn’t matter. I still remembered clearly
where the monsters were located then .
After running like that, he encounters monsters.
[Monster 5 has appeared.]
[Monster 7 has appeared.]
“Hello.”
You can see a jellyfish-like monster the size of a house and a monster floating in the air waving its tentacles like an octopus.
“This is strange. really.”
I had another encounter with the monster I had risked my life fighting for.
The monsters cast their eyes on Taesan
.
[Monster 5 sees you and is hostile.]
[Monster 7 sees you
and is hostile.] [You have witnessed terrible things.]
[Judgment begins.]
[Challenge check…]
[Confusion roll In progress…]
[Judging fear…]
[Determining instant death…]
[. . . ]
[All judgments successful!]
[You activated reconnaissance.]
[Monster 7]
[Health: 325842/325842]
[Monster 5]
[Health: 105212/105212]
The eyes of Mount Tai sank.
The monsters were much weaker than in their previous lives.
The reason was not difficult to guess
. The God of Despair was taken aback when he gave him an enhanced ordeal. It was as if things were completely different from what he expected.
He probably didn’t know that Gosin intervened in Taesan’s despair.
Monsters are beings born with the power of the gods. There was a high possibility that it was not fully realized with the power of the god of despair.
“Good.”
The corner of Taesan’s mouth went up. Now, the strength of the monsters had weakened similarly to Mount Tai. When this happened, I knew for sure. About the difference
between the previous life and the present life .
The monster’s tentacles moved. Taesan kicked his feet at the green light that was shooting out.
Coo-goo-goo-goo…
the light melted the horizon.
Taesan calmly comprehended it.
‘I can avoid it.’
Even without physical time acceleration, he evaded the monster’s attack without difficulty.
Taishan rushed at the monster. The monster’s tentacles moved and green beams shot toward Mount Tai. Taesan
kicked
his feet while watching the flying lights .
Kiyiing!
The light narrowly passed through Mount Tai.
In previous lives, it was impossible to see the light and avoid it. So I had no choice but to look at the omen and avoid it in advance.
But now it was possible to evade by moving after seeing the light. It was made possible by the increased stats.
fault.
Taishan arrived right in front of the monster.
It was in a state where none of the attacks were nullified.
Wow!
In front of Taesan, defense-specialized monsters 7 cover their bodies. Taesan raises his sword and points at monster 5.
[You have triggered a forced duel. For 12 seconds, it cannot deal damage to you except monster 5.]
Ignore defense-specialized monsters and attack attack-specialized monsters first.
In my previous life, I didn’t even have enough mana to use Forced Duels, so I had to deal with one the first time I used it.
But not now. There was no reason to deal with the defense type first because there was no problem with mana even after using forced duel dozens of times.
Kiyiing!
Dodge the shooting beam and insert the sword.
[3043 damage to monster 5.]
There is no multiplication. There is no copying, and there is no initialization of designated skills.
However, there was an increased basic attack power. It was not that difficult to gnaw through 100,000 stamina.
[You activate a white rune shield.]
A small rune shield floats around Mount Tai. The tentacle’s beam hits the shield and is intercepted. It won’t be long before it gets smashed, but it buys Taesan enough time to escape.
Taesan couldn’t hold back his laughter.
I knew that a lot of things had changed, but it became even more certain when I faced the monsters I had faced in my previous life.
Previous life battles are approached with negate attacks and trigger Multiply and Copy
. If you defeat the enemy with it, you win.
It was such a tightrope fight that would be infinitely disadvantageous if not defeated.
In contrast, it was much more stable now.
With the increased stats, it is easy to evade the opponent’s attack and slowly but surely gnaw it.
[You activated Frost Arrow.]
The arrows pierce the monster.
Skills were also freely used without worrying about mana.
keying!
Ignoring the shooting beams as an attack nullification, I drive my sword in succession. That’s how all of the attack nullifiers are gone.
[18543 damage to you.]
Over ten thousand damage.
However, the holdout does not activate. Taesan’s stamina is over 20,000. I still have thousands of stamina left.
Taesan quickly deflected the monster and drank the health potion. I recovered all my stamina and ran again.
It wasn’t as strong as it was back then.
He will still be stronger than he is now.
However, he gained strength in a completely different direction.
And if he gets the power of his previous life here, he will truly be perfect.
Taesan violently drove the monster.
Level up with skill
