Episode 188. String connecting beliefs (2)
[‘Daylight’ & ‘Red Magic Bullet’ are activated!]
The first thing to blink was a red line.
A bright red line that is thin but straight.
The magic power that crossed the drowning people soon reached Atasha.
“…?”
Sensing the change, Atasagya raised her head.
And right at that moment.
A huge flash of light connected the two.
Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah Kwah!
The drowned bodies evaporated as they were.
As if that wasn’t enough, I blew it all the way to where Atasha was.
The ground has changed as if a bomb had been dropped.
A huge crater appeared in the middle of the battlefield.
Chii profit!
The rising heat mixed with acrid smoke.
Jinhyeok silently watched the scene from the sky.
“Damn it… Mmm. I shouldn’t have used that word.”
“mosquito! mosquito…!”
“I am watching too. Anyway, the bosses are filthy strong.”
It was a blow that instantly killed hundreds of orcs and goblins, but Atasha did not die even after receiving the attack properly.
Of course, from the scorched feathers and red bloodshot eyes, it seems that it has been firmly heated.
It was in a state right before pride, so of course it must be right before the string of reason is cut.
“this person! I will stick it on a tree branch and eat it alive!”
Dozens of lightning bolts formed around Atasha’s enraged wings.
Sparks that shone so brightly that it made my eyes hurt had so much magic power that I couldn’t ignore them.
[Atasha activates Lv15 ‘Lightning Strike’!]
Of course, you shouldn’t hit even one.
“If you really don’t want to become a roasted sweet potato, you should avoid it. Understand?”
Jinhyeok whispered softly into Sweet Potato’s ear.
At the same time, a thunderstorm started pouring down from the ceiling.
Quaang!
Kwaaang!
“Mo Mo Mogi Yi!”
The sweet potato crossed the length and breadth of the falling lightning.
***
Fire!
Because they adhered to the off-beat movement line, Atasha’s thunderstorm burned only the poor ground every time.
However, despite the continuous fuss, Atasha was not impatient at all.
‘…I can just drag out my time like this.’
Atasha’s lips curled into a sly smile.
When I first saw Jinhyeok and the others following him, I was quite taken aback.
Even a player is a human with only a small amount of magical power.
No matter how much they fly and crawl, they are insignificant creatures that cannot be compared to themselves, who are located at the top of the hierarchy.
But that common sense has completely collapsed.
by a single human being.
‘I had a really hard time coming up with an appropriate contingency plan.’
In addition to preparing the holy relics, the rest of the bosses were hidden separately to catch the opponent off guard.
When I think of the hard work I put into persuading the proud Lizardmen leader and Black Fang, I certainly overcame some difficult obstacles.
still.
All that suffering is over.
I still couldn’t deal with that mudfish-like human, but just by keeping my feet tied like this, the battle situation was overwhelmingly advantageous for this side.
The troops brought from the ninth floor were still overflowing.
Aren’t the traps on the 8th floor completely blocking additional support from players?
In addition, it can be seen that the humans and spirit beasts here are also noticeably losing their magical power…
The outcome of this fight is as if it has been decided.
‘If I deal with that human, he will be satisfied.’
The corner of Atasha’s mouth twitched at the thought of receiving a lot of compliments.
Soon after, I wondered if the squares spread by the black wind were getting thinner, and then I saw that they were collapsing.
The gap where there was no place for a single needle to go in grew wider and wider.
really soon
There is only one step left.
But at that very moment.
The blood drained from Atyassa’s face.
pounding! pounding! pounding!
My heart started beating irregularly.
At the same time, cold sweat ran down his entire body.
His gaze turned to the red-haired woman. To be precise, towards the blue jewel guarded by the red-haired woman.
‘This… this magic response?’
I feel a strange sense of discomfort.
Undoubtedly.
Right then.
[All 3 minutes have elapsed.]
[The special item ‘String of Faith’ has been completed.]
[String of Faith]
Difficulty to obtain: A
Execution Condition: Both conditions must be met to connect to a special gate only when the conditions are met. The ‘call’ of the target using the string connecting the beliefs and the ‘response’ of the person beyond that must be made. However, this item can only be used against non-kind targets.
[‘Mirror Breaking Boundaries’ is activated.]
Items prepared at the Coin Exchange reacted with ‘Mirror Breaking Boundaries’.
As the indescribable light came out, there was a gap in the fierce battle for an instant.
Atasha, who threw lightning. Even the Lizard King, who showed off his insane strength. Black Fang, who enjoyed hunting at high speed, also stopped as if it had hardened on the spot.
[Stairs are connected.]
A green gate about 10 meters tall opened.
Now that this side has called, all you have to do is wait for the other person to respond.
“Calling reinforcements…?”
“I brought a lot of you, so wouldn’t it be fair to bring some with me too?”
“Don’t be ridiculous! What fool is coming to help you guys!”
Atasha drew a band of blood around her neck.
She also knew about this item.
The ‘String of Faith’ is a special item that can summon troops from other floors.
However, only they could use this item properly.
It was because there was a huge restriction that could only bring in support from other races other than the same race.
It’s a natural story.
Who would shed blood for humans?
That is until they came to this place.
Certainly, no one responding from beyond that gate would exist.
‘Not to mention the terribly individualistic spirit beasts. That young ancient species isn’t even worth mentioning.’
Therefore, this item would not create any meaningful variables.
But Jinhyeok was sure.
If it was him, he would surely answer this call.
that buck
It was then that footsteps echoed.
A terrible silence is broken.
What emerged from the shimmering surface was…
the warriors of the ‘Frostblade Tribe’.
Their great hero and the greatest leader in the history of the troll race was ‘Caracal’.
As expected… you came.
Jinhyeok nodded briefly toward Caracal.
“human.”
Caracal also bowed his head towards Jinhyeok.
The fate of the family who was saved by Jinhyeok’s help in the freshwater lake.
to repay the favor.
Caracal responded to Jinhyeok’s call.
[‘The string that connects beliefs’ is activated.]
[The warriors of the 7th floor are manifested.]
The red flag symbolizing the ‘Frost Blade’ fluttered.
“Oooh!”
“Kuaaa!”
Huge numbers of troops began appearing from the gates.
All of them were elite armed with heavy armor.
“Kalam. Get ready for a grueling charge. From now on, completely annihilate the enemy.”
“i get it. Chief.”
“I’ll do it right away.”
Whoop whoop!
The horn sounded like thunder.
Hussars riding on white wolves led the way. And behind them were spearmen armed with heavy armor.
like that.
A blue wave shook the battlefield.
***
Atasha was taken aback by the unexpected situation.
“Stop! The ranks must not collapse!”
Atasha screamed at her throat.
A scream close to screaming.
But no matter how much I shouted, it was already too late.
The side was almost defenseless because the power was concentrated in the front to deal with Jinhyeok, the Black Wind, and the spirit beasts.
That mistake had fatal consequences.
Pupper puck!
Kwaaang!
An advance party of trolls dug in in a wedge shape and overran the place made up of orcs and goblins.
“Kieack!”
“Kwuweek!”
Arms and legs blown off.
The muddy body bounced off.
Heavily armed trolls hit the flanks, so of course the damage was great.
However, before he could recover from the shock, the second attack continued.
With the sound of cutting the wind, the warriors of the Frostblade clan threw their spears.
Puffer Puck!
Pooh!
The target was the ogre.
A surprise attack that aimed precisely at the seam of the armor.
“Keek…”
“Kkek! Gagging!”
As the ogres who supported them fell down, the rest began to collapse in an instant.
The Lizard King tried to rectify the battle line somehow, but it was close to impossible to restore once it had collapsed.
Especially if Caracal led the troops himself.
Wow!
Even the gigantic Lizard King couldn’t receive Caracal’s spear, so he hesitated and stepped back.
“You bastard… why did the trolls join hands with the humans!”
“A human called us. We need no more reason than that to fight.”
Caracal draws the line, saying that there is no need to talk.
Besides, Black Fang was still playing hide and seek with Wolyeong, so he didn’t even think about joining the fight at all.
In a completely upside down situation.
“I can’t believe this… This nonsense…”
Atashawa in despair.
“I like it a lot too. Not just one-on-one, but calling a lot of friends and fighting.”
Jinhyeok’s grinning appearance contrasted.
Now the time has come to finish it off.
If you have this level of board, it’s time to maximize your criminal record through sheep hunting.
and.
In order for everyone to have a comfortable hunt, it was necessary to sort out some of the cumbersome bosses.
“You can rest now.”
Jinhyeok put his molars in the subspace inventory and gently patted the back of the sweet potato.
And immediately leaped toward the ground.
Took!
Jinhyeok, who landed lightly, once again displayed the ‘nails that cover the moon’.
Both hands were covered with dark red nails, and a hideous aura slowly rose.
Was it because it felt provocative?
Atasha clenched her fists tightly.
“Do you… think you can beat me one-on-one? I dare to rule the lightning!”
“Static electricity is quite fierce, but I never thought that I would lose.”
“Don’t talk nonsense. How dare you know anything about my abilities!”
The 9th floor is lined with numerous monsters.
One of the bosses who conquered them was himself.
It means that a human scumbag who just crawled out of the tower is not an existence that can talk carelessly.
but.
There was something that even Atasha didn’t know.
The fact that the man in front of him right now is a being on a completely different level than the one who only controls the ninth floor.
“You shouldn’t shout loudly at this distance to a subject who has abilities specialized in long distance.”
No matter how powerful a cannon is, it is of no use to an infantryman approaching right in front of you.
Apart from power, there is such a thing as compatibility.
Pod!
Jinhyeok, who manifested the ‘Sword Demon Emperor’, approached Atasha in an instant.
“Kuk!”
Atasa Gya immediately unleashed a bolt of lightning.
However, it was not Jinhyeok who would be attacked by an attack with a simple, straight trajectory.
“The speed is quite fast.”
Given the nature of lightning, it makes no sense to talk about how fast it is.
“The problem is that the part where your electric shock is concentrated coincides with the direction of the attack.”
Where the attack will come from. If you can read the direction in advance…
it’s not that difficult to avoid it.
‘At least for me.’
Took….
Jinhyeok’s fist dug into his arms before he knew it and touched Atasha’s abdomen.
‘Heukcheon Demon Huanggong (黑天魔皇功)’
“Oh no!”
Atasha let out a sharp scream at the unusual energy.
The heavy and thick flesh felt in the stomach seemed to foretell what would happen soon.
And…
the ink light rotated counterclockwise.
‘Mukryun Changpa (墨輪槍破)’
“Yes.”
