Episode 80. ‘Pendariel’, the womb of the dead (2)
A world where everything is frozen.
A demonic scene where each other reflects each other’s appearance.
This is the last prison created by glacial formations.
“what. This is…”
An earthquake occurred in Pendariel’s pupils.
I can’t help but be embarrassed by the appearance of myself and the zombies that have increased endlessly due to the diffused reflection.
Wow!
I reached out and broke the wall, but there was only another wall blocking it.
But that was just then.
[The effect of Ice Jade Kaleidoscope triggers ‘Global Confusion’!] The
kaleidoscope’s second ability bloomed due to an optical illusion that seemed like it was about to be sucked in.
“Keeeh!”
“Keew!”
The zombies screamed in unison.
bang! bang! bang!
Quadduk!
Then they banged their heads against the wall and bit each other.
Some of them even lost their reason and bared their teeth at Pendariel.
A situation completely out of her control.
In an instant, red blood was painted over the white ice.
“human! How dare you do this!”
Pendariel, who tore his children to death with his own hands, bit his molars.
At the same time, a vicious aura that was incomparable to the previous one rose from his entire body.
[Pendariel is Lv?? ‘Black death’ manifests!]
A skill that wiped out the raid led by Ian Smith.
This is the ‘black death’, which is said to be the most severe of poetry readings.
The black energy that stretched out permeated the ice wall.
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
Then everything that made up the barrier turned black and began to crumble.
Layer upon layer of walls are collapsing.
The basic framework of the kaleidoscope, which is the basis of the Ice Labyrinth, has been destroyed.
Truly overwhelming power.
Pendariel’s unique ability, which exerted full force due to anger, was completely different.
It was not for nothing that even the powers of Murim, the middle-class residents of the tower, were reluctant to fight the queen.
Even self-defense would have been useless in the face of such absurd abilities.
“where. latent. is it Come out!”
but.
Even though he blew away all the ice prisons, he couldn’t see his opponent.
“…?”
Pendariel’s eyes narrowed.
I looked around, but all I could see were still smashed pieces of ice.
Right then.
Her gaze turned to the center of the barrier.
There is something.
Something that was small and shiny and at the same time had faint remnants of magical power.
“This is…”
Undoubtedly.
It was a magic stone that used the time difference to activate the barrier.
‘Could it be bait? Even this?’
Using one’s base and allies as bait.
After tying the gaze with flashy skills and provocations.
He himself has hidden himself.
There is only one reason.
As I thought about it, my heart, which had been withered for a long time and had lost its function, beat at a rapid pace.
pounding! pounding! pounding!
‘Dangerous.’
Pendariel felt fear for the first time in his life.
‘…that human is really.’
Because you know what your opponent is trying to do.
‘It might destroy all the things I cherish and hope for.’
Instinct gave the highest warning.
A single human is more dangerous than tens of thousands of players.
＊＊＊
4th floor is base defense battle.
This applies to players, but also to zombies.
The queen moved out of her colony to kill Jinhyeok.
In other words.
‘Their base is empty.’
Jinhyeok increased his speed.
Since he was using ‘Sword Demon Emperor’ and ‘Shallow Breathing’, he was able to take care of his endurance at the same time.
It was then.
Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah Kwah!
I felt a strong magic power from afar.
The queen also began to return with all her might.
‘I’m not stupid at all.’
If Pendariel had attacked the Sangam Stadium, the base would have been quickly captured.
But that doesn’t mean you can win this fight.
This is because the victory of the zombies is confirmed only when the bases of all players on the 4th floor are destroyed.
Hundreds of bases remain today.
Before destroying all of that, his base would be destroyed first, so he would have no choice but to decide to withdraw.
‘It’s too late to find out now.’
level and skill.
power and speed.
Everything is pushed by Pendariel.
It’s a natural story.
Because the opponent was originally a boss monster that shouldn’t come out of the 4th floor.
‘I’ll lose in battle.’
However, to overcome the overwhelming power difference and win the war by using the rules that force the floor.
That’s it.
It was a way for the deceased to climb the Tower of Trials.
“Whoa.”
Jinhyuk took a deep breath.
In no time, we reached the queen’s colony.
The troops left behind as sentries came into sight.
‘Forty.’
Of course, this doesn’t even buy time.
Sreung!
A pair of swords raised their spirits.
[‘Sword’s Grave’ is activated!]
The sword in his left hand was imbued with black energy.
Parts Tsutsu!
The terrifyingly dark red sword steel burned fiercely.
[‘Blessing of the Stars’ is activated!]
The energy of the stars imbued the sword in your right hand.
Whoa!
The light that protects the constellation has responded to the caster’s call.
like that.
The miracle that appeared along with the appearance of the relics and towers that had been lost in history has materialized in one place.
“Kuaaa!”
“Keeck!”
The zombies that rushed in were swept away in one blow.
Blood dripped from the severed arms and legs like rain.
Mass-produced zombies are no match.
Jinhyeok broke through the entrance of the colony and dug deeper.
The view changes.
The air also changes.
The smell of blood thickened, and the unique scent of a rotting corpse also penetrated deep into the tip of the nose.
‘This place is disgusting no matter how many times I’ve seen it.’
Jinhyuk frowned.
If there is a hell, is it like this?
The huge tomb, made of bodies and skeletons piled up, looked grotesque.
Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah!
“Keeck!”
“Keeck!”
The number of zombies increased as they went inside, but no one was able to catch Jinhyeok’s attack even once.
Jinhyeok mechanically swung his sword and cut individual objects.
In places where enemies were concentrated, he wiped them out in one fell swoop using the ‘Daylight’, a divine system.
It wasn’t far off now.
Less than 100 meters left to the deepest part of the Queen’s flag.
‘It’s time to come out at this point…’
Jinhyeok looked at the slightly changed color of the floor.
I saw a place where I felt a sense of incongruity.
In the past, I used to be surprised several times by this guy’s appearance scene.
The moment I thought so.
Wow!
A long blade protruded from the floor.
However, Jinhyeok had already thrown his body back.
It showed up again.
“Mmm… eat… I’m going to!”
“looks delicious! blood! guts! Lean meat!”
A gigantic zombie with two heads and a deformed back came crawling out of the ground.
A watchman who guards the Queen’s flag, aka ‘The Butcher’.
He is the most annoying of the special body type zombies.
why
Aren’t there annoying named monsters in the game that you don’t want to face again?
If I were to choose those guys from the 4th floor, this guy would definitely be at the top of the list.
It handles scissors up to 2m freely, and since it has no vital points, it continues to move even if it loses its head.
This means that in order to completely suffocate it, it must either disintegrate into atoms or sever all limbs and incapacitate it.
Even though the distance to Pendariel was far enough away, everyone was in a hurry because they had calculated the time they had to deal with this guy.
About 3 minutes left.
“Choose. What should I do this time? Burn it spicy? Or do you cut it neatly?”
Jinhyeok gave up the choice.
“That… what… do you mean?”
“It’s the first time we… you… see…?”
The Butcher tilted his head.
In the meantime, the two heads moved left and right alternately to avoid colliding.
“I guess so. But I’ve been fighting you guys for about 30 times.”
As I went upstairs again, the terrible memories of the past came flooding back.
Even cut with a knife.
See if it burns with fire.
Later, I tested how many times I had to hit it with chopsticks to kill it.
I hit almost 180,000 units, so I could smash a head.
‘shit. Don’t do that again.’
Thanks to his challenging spirit, it seems that he has done all the high school students.
“Eating… eating… talking nonsense…”
“Yum… I’m sure it’ll be eaten… Do it. I’m going to eat it from the top of my head… ah, ah, ah…!”
Chunk! Chunk! Chunk!
The butcher moved the scissors menacingly.
It is a weapon for torture that can cut even a thick iron plate like a piece of paper.
It must have proved its power by taking countless lives so far.
but.
This feeding was different.
At the same time as the scissors aimed at Jinhyeok’s legs.
Jinhyeok plunged the twin dragon swords deep into the floor.
Kaaaaang!
The scissors were blocked by the swords on both sides.
“Aren’t you… moving?”
“Hey…profit!”
For some reason, I couldn’t cut a single knife with a thin scissor blade.
Thinking it was an ordinary knife was the first mistake the butcher made.
And the second one.
[Lv6 ‘Fire element’ is activated!]
It was that they overlooked what kind of abilities humans, who were mere prey, had.
Jinhyeok climbed onto the head of the butcher before he knew it and smiled.
Roaring!
A single ray of flame stung both eyes.
A flame that burned my retinas and dug right into my brain.
“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
“Snow… snow!”
Learned to inflict long, slow pain with chopsticks.
Of course, I also learned how to kill the fastest and most effectively.
‘Temporarily taking away sight is the cornerstone.’
Next, use the gap now created to aim for the weakest point in the enemy’s defense.
Jinhyuk gathered sparks at the tip of his finger.
Then, under the butcher’s feet, he drew a spell made of runes.
from below.
Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah!
consolation.
The fire burned the butcher’s flesh and melted his bones.
However, Jinhyeok did not stop there.
Because it was the nature of named zombies to recover if given a chance.
Now, at the height of his weakness, was the perfect opportunity to destroy him.
Jinhyeok moved the sword with sword strength to the left and right.
A red line was drawn over the gray flesh.
“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
“sick! it hurts!”
The Butcher groaned and brandished his scissors frantically.
Rather than an attack, it was more like an outburst caused by one’s own instincts.
Of course, the trajectory is simple, and the attack is inevitably loaded with emotions.
“thank you. One minute is the shortest record.”
Thanks to this, in the 31st episode, a new record was achieved.
Perpuck!
puck!
The twin dragon swords dug into the butcher’s spinal cord on both sides.
It could be said that it was almost simultaneous.
All the magic that Jinhyeok had accumulated was replaced with ‘Mandala’.
His eyesight was dyed golden.
[Your level has risen.]
[You have acquired ‘Scissors with ghosts’.]
There was nothing standing in the place where the light swept.
Returning to nothingness, the Butcher left only a blade as evidence of his existence.
Level up and reward.
‘I have a hard time with this taste.’
I felt the reward of running a long distance and fighting fiercely.
The distribution of stats and confirmation of items should be done a little later.
All that remains is to draw the flag.
There were no more obstacles.
This fight is over with this.
But just then
Tring!
An unexpected status window appeared.
“Look at this?”
The corners of Jinhyuk’s lips twisted subtly.
