Episode 73. Base defense battle (2)
A large scar on the floor.
A cloud of dust flew in the place where the sword passed.
“What is this madman?”
“I don’t know. Some idiot suddenly attacked!”
“I was so excited to die. Are you arguing against this person? I was annoyed because I stayed up all night, but it’s okay. Let me break it in one place.”
“omg! Mmm… Stop it! that guy is that guy Sword Demon!”
“That psychopath?”
The hum grew louder.
“Don’t bother and get out. Before cutting them all down.”
It was none other than Cheon Yoo-seong that spewed death.
He must have been so angry that his eyes were cold and bloody.
That’s right.
Chun Yoo-seong, who was working hard on training today, received a message early in the morning.
[They will come to the 4th floor entrance within an hour.]
The caller is Kang Jin-hyeok.
It was a mountain he had to overcome, and it was his purpose for remaining in the tower.
‘That’s funny.’
Chun Yuseong frowned.
There’s no reason to go just because he says he’s coming.
Training is still lacking.
I had to break the tip of the sword to get over that damned monster.
That’s why Chun Yoo-seong ignored the message from Jin-hyeok.
Then another message came in right away.
[If you come now, I will deal with you without using your left arm or right leg.]
Be patient.
This is a provocation.
Very shallow and childish.
If you catch it, you will only end up being played by the opponent’s tricks.
[okay. Then use only your right brain and close both eyes to fight. Cole?]
Oh…let’s go.
You have to be patient.
We must remember and sublimate our anger now and use it as a basis for revenge for the future.
If you wait, the opportunity will surely come.
[Cheol? ah. It looks right. Don’t worry, I don’t bother doggy with footnotes.]
That’s it.
The string of reason he was barely holding on to broke.
…kill.
I will definitely tear you to shreds and kill you!
Chun Yoo-seong, completely caught in the provocation, threw everything away and headed to the 4th floor.
And right now.
The culprit of all this could be seen in the distance.
＊ ＊ ＊
“Huh? I’m here? It’s here.”
Jinhyuk waved his hand happily.
I thought I was dying of waiting.
Anyway, you don’t keep the promise time dirty.
“You bastard…!”
Chun Youseong stretched out his sword.
It was a new sword with runes engraved on it, not the iron sword that was used before.
‘As expected, I got that one.’
Attribute sword.
It was not yet complete, but it was a special item that could inject elemental magic into the weapon to compensate for the swordsman’s weakness at long distances.
The corners of Jinhyuk’s mouth went up.
Chun Yoo-seong is strong enough to be recognized by everyone, but he has a personality that only pursues the standard.
This means that it is easy to predict the next move.
“I will prove to you here whether or not I am intimidated.”
Chun Youseong grabbed the sword with both hands.
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
Due to the sharpened mana, rough lines began to be drawn along the ground.
It is a sword that is ignorant and ignorant.
“It’s good to prove it, but to fight with an unfinished sword?”
At Jinhyeok’s words, Chun Yuseong hesitated.
“What do you mean?”
“It is literally. The attribute sword is certainly not bad, but it needs to be perfected to demonstrate its power.”
“…”
“The A-rank random box that comes out on this floor also contains an item that can complete that attribute sword. What you want is the fire attribute. Am I right?”
“dog sound! The random box is literally random. There is no way to know what will come out of it!”
“okay. You can’t get a glimpse of what’s inside the random box by normal means.”
but.
“That I prefer unusual expedients. you know?”
Jinhyuk smiled.
On the other hand, Chun Yoo-seong bit his lip.
If someone else had said this, I would have passed it off as bullshit not worth listening to.
The deceased person smiling smirking in front of him was an exception.
He might actually know.
A way to peek behind the curtain.
“Assuming you’re right. If so, are you planning to use me as bait?”
“Wasn’t life originally about using each other for your own interests? Besides, there’s nothing to lose from your point of view, right?”
A better item is the best way to become stronger.
It’s not for nothing that there is a word ‘Tempul’.
It was because there were cases where they chewed up rankers in the top tier with just items.
at last.
“…Damn it. There must be materials in that random box to complete the attribute sword.”
Sreung!
Chun Yoo-seong put the sword he drew into the scabbard.
good.
There were many twists and turns, but somehow, all 5 of us got together with this.
Although one of them was a little suspicious that he was on the same side.
＊ ＊ ＊
[A party of 5 has been formed.]
[The minimum number of people for the base defense battle has been met.]
The five people, including Jinhyeok, headed straight for the arena.
“…”
“Hmm. hmm.”
Lee Tae-min and Yoo Yeon-hwa glanced at Cheon Yoo-seong.
Wasn’t he an idiot who pulled out a knife whenever he met eyes in the past?
Being on the same team as such a bloody guy, I have no choice but to be anxious.
“Jinhyuk. Are you really going to be okay?”
Teresa, who met Chun Yu-seong in the corridor, was equally anxious.
“it’s okay. Even on the outside, that guy has a surprisingly gentle side. They probably won’t hit us in the back as long as the wave comes.”
“But…”
“Trust me.”
Because we bickered more than anyone else, I realized even if I didn’t like it.
what is the nature of that person.
And if you’re a Cheonyuseong I know, at least you won’t do anything cowardly.
Maybe…
…maybe.
It was then.
“Oh right brother. I almost forgot take this.”
Yoo Yeon-hwa opened the sub-space inventory as if she had remembered something.
What soon appeared was a pair of knives that looked unusual at first glance.
It was a double dragon sword.
“Oh oh!”
indeed.
They say it’s just a relic from the past, but it’s comparable to the holy relic inside the tower.
This is by no means an exaggeration.
It felt like my heart was shrinking from the heavy feeling that passed through my fingertips.
“My grandfather asked me to pass it on. But really, this is something my grandfather cherished so much, how did he get it?”
“just. Personally, I think you liked it.”
Jinhyuk evaded moderately.
There is no need to talk about residents right now.
It was because he was focused on the defense right in front of him.
While having such small talk.
“It’s all here. That’s our base.”
In no time, the party was able to arrive at the entrance of the arena.
“ha. You have to block this big base with 5 people, right?”
“I can remember when I blocked Outbreak in Amsterdam. I didn’t want to go through that again.”
Yoo Yeon-hwa and Teresa let out a small sigh.
“Does the world’s Bulgwangdong Nuclear Fist and the Saint of Amsterdam feel nervous?”
“Buy a little? Still, I feel relieved because I am with my brother.”
“me too. In a way, I think if I’m with Jinhyeok, I’ll be able to do anything no matter how desperate the situation is.”
“I try to float it, but nothing comes out.”
“no way. let it float I was just telling the truth.”
“You attacked the corridor alone. I saw it myself. What?”
Why are these people suddenly like this?
Is there anything you wish for?
I don’t know what you’re thinking… but
I don’t feel bad.
At least it was because he was trusted.
In a world like this, it’s not common to be able to trust and entrust your back to someone.
Cheer! Cheer!
Braham’s ring he was wearing trembled violently.
‘okay. It’s true that you can trust it too.’
Feeling Alice’s pout, Jinhyeok smiled.
Contrary to his appearance, this guy is also secretly jealous.
Should I say that it is completely 180 degrees different from the cold and lofty first impression?
You might want to play with the taste more.
But that was just then.
“hmm. I wondered who preoccupied the arena. Were they Koreans?”
An unfamiliar voice interrupted.
At the same time, men with shaved heads and tattoos all over their bodies appeared between the buildings.
“brother!”
“Hyung, I erased those guys and approached!”
“…Mr. Jinhyeok!”
All three shouted at the same time.
yes i know
Since a few minutes ago, the encirclement has been gradually reduced, so when
did you show your head?
Seeing as how good he is at hiding his presence, he seems to have some skills.
“Are you the Chinese player?”
Jinhyuk licked his lips.
One of the largest guilds, the Triad.
It’s a place where only those who have pretty bad rumors circulate.
And the young man at the front leading them had a completely different atmosphere than the others.
“Are you a guy named Kang Jin-hyeok?”
An Asian with a white face and dark hair opened his mouth.
If you meet on the street, you will see it again at least once.
However, what caught my eye more than his handsome appearance was the pattern on the sword he wore around his waist.
Jinhyuk’s eyes narrowed.
That pattern is…
unmistakable.
‘Namgung Sega’.
One of the members of ‘Woorim’ on the 25th floor of the Tower of Trials.
‘It must be true that the Chinese side and the residents contacted each other.’
It was the moment when Yoo Chun-yeong’s words were proven.
“Aren’t you asking if you are Kang Jin-hyuk?”
“that’s right. I am Kang Jin-hyeok.”
“It was too. My name is Namgoonghyun. Unlike lowly small countries like you, I belong to China, which boasts vast territories…”
Namgung-hyeon, who introduced himself, hesitated while trying to continue.
This is because the opponent was covering his nose and mouth with a handkerchief.
“What are you doing?”
“I’m sorry, your country is covered in fine dust. I was worried that dust would come out of my mouth every time I spoke.”
It is understandable that the skin is white.
Since the sky is covered with haze 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, can the sunlight pass through?
“This… What is this bastard saying now!”
Namgoonghyun’s face turned red in an instant.
I’m angry.
It’s national rule that the one who gets angry first loses.
“You bastard. You know who I am now! If you dare to look down on the Namgung family, I will destroy the three tribes! I will do the bullshit for you, so please omit it. boring. A line like that third-rate villain.”
Jinhyeok recited the lines the opponent would say in advance.
Even if it wasn’t accurate to the exact name, he probably meant something like this.
“By the way, does Namgungse have any pride to protect?”
If you float once in the tower, your level of crawling is at your level.
Besides, wasn’t it only 20 years ago that Crown Prince Namgung’s son appeared and made a name for himself?
I don’t know what era they’re still behaving that way.
Unless you came by yourself in a time machine.
“you you!”
“Shh. Don’t open your mouth wide. If you spit even virus-laden saliva, it’s a nuisance to players around the world.”
“Aaaagh!”
In the end, Namgoonghyun exploded.
