Episode 205. Emerging variables (2)
The importance of each player in the international community is increasing day by day.
Naturally, each country was doing its best to prevent players from becoming naturalized in other countries.
and.
Among them, the highest level of security was applied to the incoming call.
Touuu… Touuuu…
The red message continued to flash.
‘It means there is something very important…’
I have no choice but to check what it is.
Jin-hyeok, who briefly asked Chun Yu-seong for his understanding, answered the phone.
[Hello, player Kang Jin-hyuk. This is Han Sang-jin. You must be busy, sorry for contacting you, but I have something urgent to tell you.]
I heard a familiar voice.
Han Sang-jin opened his mouth with a very firm tone.
“I am listening.”
[A person with inside information on the ‘Empire’ has now come to our Awoken Society. Since he said he would have to talk about the details after meeting Jinhyeok… I think you should come to Korea right away.]
Oh.
‘Inside information of the empire?’
Jinhyuk’s eyes narrowed.
It’s not the Pennheimer I met at a cafe the other day.
‘If Pennheimer had come directly, he would have contacted me right away instead of the president of the association.’
That means that the person in the association now is a stranger with no familiarity with this side.
Due to limited information, it was impossible to pinpoint more than this, but it was certain that something interesting was about to happen.
The worry didn’t last long.
“I’ll go right away.”
Jinhyeok answered briefly.
***
The after party ended abruptly.
Jinhyeok, who explained everything to his party, was on his way back to Korea via Rome International Airport.
A smooth trip was expected because Han Sang-jin arranged for first-class seats like the last time.
Just one thing.
That is, except for the lumps of luggage stuck right next to it like chewing gum.
“Ohhhh! This is where the airport is.”
“It’s amazing. Sister! Look over there. I think that will be delicious.”
Alice and Andrea sounded as if they were two octaves higher than usual.
“I’m not going on a picnic right now. Why are you guys following me to the plane?”
“This is all a kind of learning. To become a great boss, isn’t it important to have a variety of experiences?”
“That’s right. It’s not for self-interest, it’s all studying so that it can help Jinhyeok-nim later.”
Elise had been on a plane with her before, but she hadn’t seen all the details since she was asleep in the ring.
Anything outside of Andria’s Tower was fascinating.
Know.
I know how excited he is, but…
Maybe that’s why I want to tease him more.
“Is this the first time you’ve been on a plane with the main body?”
“Yes. But, it’s an object with the size and dignity to suit Jim. It’s not bad.”
“yes.”
The two boys nodded with innocent faces.
“Then, of course you must have studied what you must do when you first get on a plane, right?”
“That. Is there such a thing?”
Andrea asked in embarrassment, but Eris quickly restrained her.
The years I’ve been with Jinhyeok haven’t been a day or two.
Alice was also able to deal with this kind of situation skillfully.
“Of course, I know. Would you have asked for a ride without finding that much information?”
“sister?”
“Stay still. I’ll take care of everything.”
The reason Alice can only be confident.
That’s because there is a view tube.
As it is called the sea of all information, there must have been something about how to get on a plane.
1. First of all, when you first board a plane, you have to take off your shoes.
2. Unfasten your belt and clap your hands before leaving.
3. Toilets are charged, so be sure to prepare a lot of coins.
4. If you feel you are getting motion sickness, ask the flight attendant to open the window.
“Did you see?”
Elise put on a satisfied smile and carefully organized the information she found on a piece of paper.
“As expected… you’re amazing, sister.”
“That’s why I told you. Just trust me. The customs of humans are nothing compared to vampires who boast a brilliant civilization.”
The bridge of Elise’s nose rose as if it would pierce the sky.
And Jinhyeok, who was watching the scene, also had a bright smile on his lips.
‘I’ll have to take a good picture of the dark history and sell it later at a high price.’
I was already trying to create a fan base for Ellis around the Trial Tower community.
If you keep a good record of these things one by one, there will come a day when they will be very useful in the future.
and after a while
Upon boarding the plane, Jinhyeok was guided to the innermost seat in the first class according to the guidance of the flight attendant.
It is a moment that is guaranteed for a long time.
In this gap, he was planning to deal with Beyrodum and organize the raised levels and skills.
Jinhyeok activated his personal status window.
Tring!

——————————————————
A total of 6 levels have risen.
He has 18 stats.
Considering that the level was over 70, it was an absurdly large amount of experience for hunting a single boss monster.
pounding! pounding! pounding!
My heart was beating fast.
The pleasure of continuing to grow is incomparable to anything else.
It will become the driving force that widens the gap with others, monopolizes all important opportunities, and eventually allows you to see the top of the tower once again.
‘Now I have to invest in agility and physical strength.’
Magical power was the top priority, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t neglect the rest of the stats.
In particular, since a massive war between Murim and the Empire would break out soon, it was necessary to have a more perfect balance for that time.
‘From now on, I’m not going to deal with idiots.’
The highly trained Murim people, including Seol-Lin Baek.
Imperials who had been sharpening their swords and magic all their lives.
It was the same as not to be underestimated.
In particular, one small variable can lead to catastrophe, as long as the Dark Emperor and even the Heavenly Demons have intervened.
[Agility increases from 25 → 30]
[Stamina increases from 34 → 60]
[Magic increases from 181 → 188]
Jinhyeok invested points in each stat.
Whoops!
Along with the bright light, a warm aura pervaded his entire body.
Agility, stamina, and magic power.
I felt a sharper sensation than before and a heavy mana flowing through my veins.
‘Okay, next…’
[Choose one of Beirodum’s skills.]
It’s time to choose the long-awaited copy of the skill.
It was quite a concern about which ones to copy as these were the skills possessed by the high-ranking Lich Beyrodum.
[Lv19 ‘Elemental Magic’ Lv18 ‘Black Magic’ Lv18 ‘Necromancer’ Lv18 ‘Undead Manufacturing’ Lv17 ‘Curse’] A
total of 5 skills can be copied.
‘There is no opportunity to obtain the ability of a high-ranking rich until you reach the 30th floor of the tower.’
…must be decided carefully.
Jinhyuk’s eyes narrowed.
All of them were useful, but there was one that caught my eye the most.
I just can’t give up on this.
“I’ll copy the undead manufacturing.”
[Lv1 ‘Undead Manufacture’ has been copied.]
[Copied skills are stored in ‘Memory of the World’.]
The size of the forces possessed by the faction also becomes more important towards the latter half.
‘Right now I’m just a small force, but in the future I’ll have a legion worthy of that age.’
Considering that, it is absolutely necessary to copy the skill to create your own soldiers through undead manufacturing.
Jinhyuk glanced around.
It was the most secluded seat in the first class, so there was nothing to attract attention from others.
There was a partition in the first place, so I couldn’t see it well.
‘Then let’s start.’
After collecting the bones of the T-bone steak requested by the flight attendant. Let’s focus our magic on it…
Parts!
Little by little, the bones began to break away.
[You have succeeded in creating a skeleton soldier ‘Lv1’!]
[The first undead soldier joins your faction.]
[If you name it, you can expect higher loyalty and have a slight effect on the target’s growth rate. .]
Dalgrak!
A skeleton soldier the size of a small dog appeared on his lap.
What would you say to see a black pupil in an improper fraction?
It’s not an undead monster with a terrible appearance, but it’s like a small and cute miniature.
The level of the skill is still insufficient, so this is probably the limit.
‘By the way, it’s a name…’
Certainly, giving a nickname like a sweet potato is good for forming a bond with your mouth.
After thinking about it for a while, Jinhyeok smiled brightly as if he thought of something.
“T-Bone. Your name will be T-Bone from now on.”
Since it was made from T-Bone steak, it was best to call it T-Bone.
It’s a bonus that it feels expensive and luxurious.
“Dalgrak!”
The bone rubbed something like dissatisfaction, but Jinhyeok’s head was already full of self-praise for himself.
‘My naming sense is astonishing.’
It’s to the point of regretting giving such a great name for free.
It was then.
“mosquito!”
The sweet potato hiding under the chair suddenly poked out its head.
And just like wild beasts hunted herbivores.
He bit into T-Bone’s leg bone.
“Dalgrak!”
As the sweet potato crunched, I savored the meaty aroma that permeated deep into my bones.
“Uh huh. I’m not eating that.”
“mosquito?”
“Because I am a colleague who will be with you in the future, please kindly educate me. Talk to the spirit beasts.”
“Mosquito!”
Sweet Potato replied vigorously.
Hmm.
I don’t know why he kept tasting T-Bone’s bones as he said he would.
A smart guy would understand.
…Maybe .
Is it the end of.’
Jinhyeok’s gaze turned downward.
The biggest reward of this raid.
It’s the jet-black robe of the Great Mage.
To be honest, I didn’t expect this to drop from Beirodum.
That’s bound to happen.
In the past, staff and accessories were given. It was everything, but the robe had never been dropped.
In other
words, this was the first time.
Jinhyeok checked the staff information with trembling hands.
