Episode 225. Dreamy Paradise Lost (2)
Sook!
With a cutting sound, the head of a locust disappeared.
Jinhyeok ran forward without hesitation with his sword in both hands.
“Keew!”
“Kieie!”
He had already cut down an unknown number of insects, but the endless clusters were in sight.
It was then.
thud! thud! thud! thud!
A monster of enormous size appeared from the front with a roar that shook the earth.
The Hercules beetle is the largest known insect species.
Kwaaang!
Even though the shield made of ‘glacial molding’ was unfolded, Jinhyeok’s body bounced several meters to the side.
It’s like a head-on collision with a 20-ton truck.
But the attack did not end there.
Zwililrit!
This time, I thought I could hear the sound of crawling on the ground…
‘Down!’
Sharp legs protruded from the dirt.
‘The Black Sand Centipede’.
It is known to be the most vicious of centipedes with a body length of well over 10m.
Jinhyuk quickly spread the distance to the side without even having time to catch his breath.
But he was a little faster.
Hundreds of legs wrapped around Jinhyeok in an instant.
“Kiii….”
Two bright yellow eyes looked straight at Jinhyeok.
Chii profit!
Acrid smoke rose as the saliva dripped between his teeth and hit the ground.
That must be a bodily fluid mixed with acid and poison.
“I know it’s instinct to protect the tree… but you have to look at the opponent and attack.”
I can’t even see the corpses of my comrades who died from recklessly sticking their heads in.
“Kieek!”
The centipede’s mouth snapped open.
A terrible poison swallowed the surroundings.
Melting golden roses and grasses.
It seemed that no living thing could survive in the acrid smoke.
But at that very moment.
All of the poison that had obscured his sight disappeared in an instant.
[Trait ability ‘Thousand Poison’ is activated!] A
thick mist flowed out that was incomparable to the poison emitted by the Black Sand Centipede.
‘Dangmun’s martial art’ that was copied in the forest of elves.
Thousand poison.
The season of a prestigious family that made a name for itself was reproduced through the hands of Jinhyeok.
“Kee…kee aeek!”
The Black Sand Centipede struggled in pain.
No matter how much resistance they have to poison, they are not strong enough to withstand the Hakjeonghong (鶴頂紅), which can turn a person into blood in one minute.
The poison he suffered in the first place and the poison of Moorim were very different from the root.
“I was reluctant to use it against people because it’s such a terrible ability, but you guys can use it to your heart’s content.”
Jinhyeok captured the black mist.
The smoke soon took the shape of a skewer.
A form inspired by Elise’s unique ability, the Blood Lord.
If you add ‘fire element’ to a skewer full of poison…
There will be no more efficient way to hunt bugs.
Roaring!
Poison and fire mingled in one place.
What followed was a rain of fire that could only be talked about in an apocalypse.
***
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
Kwaaang!
Unsightly craters began to form where the skewer struck.
Although the consumption of mana was extreme, it could not be helped.
If it wasn’t for this wide area, I had to spend too much time digging into it.
Jinhyeok, who once again used the ‘Gemma Emperor’, made a great leap from the spot.
The target was a butterfly flying around to avoid the skewer.
Jinhyeok gently landed on the back of the butterfly.
Nabi had not noticed that Jinhyeok was still on her back because her soul was completely lost due to rain.
‘As expected, I have to be this high to see my weakness.’
A white jade that can only be seen in the sky.
That is the source that supports the white tree.
Boooooong!
Nabi, who felt a sense of difference belatedly, struggled to get rid of Jinhyeok.
It was not easy to balance because his senses were already distorted, but Jinhyeok kept his left and right balance with his body movements close to acrobatic stunts.
‘Not yet… not yet.’
While holding a skewer in his hand, he gathered his mana.
In order to get the correct angle, you need to move the butterfly a little more to the right.
Jinhyeok, who paralyzed the butterfly’s senses of sight and smell with miasma, skillfully created an angle for throwing.
And the moment when the white tree and the antennae of the butterfly formed a straight line.
Parts…
The magical energy and miasma he gathered turned into a 2m long spear.
Jinhyeok threw the spear he was holding.
A gust of wind cut the air.
Five circles of dark red color were drawn.
Fain!
The spear that broke through the speed of sound created a sonic boom that seemed to tear the eardrum.
It could be said that it was almost simultaneous.
The spear collided head-on with Baekok.
Aaaaaang!
The entire castle was shaken by the javelin of absurd power.
Due to the shock wave, all golden roses and grasses were bent to the side.
but.
“Sheesh!”
Despite maintaining the perfect angle and power, the white jade was not destroyed.
It was slightly cracked, but still retained its luster.
“Goooooooo!”
Terrible screams echoed from the trees.
The tree would have realized if it had run rampant like this.
No matter how much I poured into mass-produced bugs, it was meaningless.
and.
Also that a human being has enough power to threaten his life.
“I am the ruler of this land. I am Tangrasil.”
For the first time, a deep voice flowed from the body of the white tree.
tangrasil.
Wasn’t it comparable to Yggdrasil, the world tree in Norse mythology?
It was a giant tree that could create another myth if time passed.
The fact that this guy started talking is proof that the attack worked just a little while ago.
“You dare to intrude into this Paradise Lost and injure me. Do you really want to die?”
Tangrasil asked.
At the same time, a subtle magical power rose from Jinhyeok’s body.
“I don’t want to die. Rather, it’s a talking tree… It’s amazing. If it wasn’t for the bugs, I would have sold it to Rick right away.”
“What, what? Selling me?”
“There’s a middle manager like you who mainly deals with novelty things. I think they’ll pay a hefty price, but… I’m debating whether or not to just burn it down because of the bugs.”
Jinhyuk smiled brightly.
The death left Tangrasil speechless for a moment.
It’s a natural story.
A life lived noblely, considering it sacred to the spirits.
Even Ograkun, the king of the giants, did not dare to treat him harshly.
But what do you mean?
Why do people who can’t even live 100 years say such crazy words?
“…I understand that you have adapted to the curse of the barrier I spread. But, do you think this is the end of the curse I can use?”
“Well, there should be more prepared. But, is it because the curses in front of me were so disappointing? I’m not expecting much.”
“That word. You will definitely regret it.”
[Tangrasil activates the ‘Second Curse’!]
[Specify one intruder and absorb twice the amount of magical power the target used in battle.] [The
target is player Kang Jin-
hyeok.] Whether using a sword or a bow It doesn’t matter if you use magic or not.
A fraudulent curse that absorbs twice the magic power of the target if it directly engages in battle.
That is why Tangrasil and the giants have been able to defend the citadel for so many years.
“How is it? Even sword masters, great mages, and martial arts masters that the empire boasted of fell on their knees in front of this curse. Soon, you too will be the same as those arrogant ones!”
“Certainly. It must be tricky.”
No matter how much you attack, if you absorb twice as much mana… it’s like drinking seawater.
It meant that the more you attack, the more you lose.
“Even if I regret it now, it’s too late. The sin of stepping into my territory will be replaced by using that flesh and blood as food.”
Tangrasil solemnly pronounced death.
of course.
“Then I’ll use your torso for fuel for the campfire. The bigger one should be enough to burn all night.”
It wasn’t Jinhyeok who would be frightened by such words.
“to the end…!”
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
like an earthquake The ground began to wriggle.
Tree trunks rushed towards Jinhyeok at great speed.
***
‘…it took.’
Jinhyuk’s eyes narrowed.
The 12-star barrier has characteristics that the gods on the upper floors of the tower cannot see.
In other words, if you are here, you can use your abilities to your heart’s content without worrying about the eyes of the Egyptians.
because i knew that
Jinhyeok asked three questions to Tangrasil.
and.
I also got an answer for that.
[Trait ability ‘Judgment of Anubis’ is activated!]
[All abilities of the target are reduced by 50%!]
Status windows appeared one after another.
“Eh, what is this…?”
Sensing the change, Tangrasil wriggled his whole body.
You won’t understand.
There would have been no opportunity to face the abilities of the upper deities while only being a middle-class patron.
But the real embarrassment is only just beginning.
Anubis’ Judgment had another effect besides nerfing the target’s abilities.
as soon as.
[You will be able to designate your opponent.]
To designate your opponent.
I’m sorry…!
Even if you didn’t specify it verbally, the target was already decided.
Whole stems were cut off, spraying green bodily fluids in all directions.
“Quaaaaagh!”
Tangrasil let out a scream of pain.
[The undead monster ‘T-bone’ has been designated as the opponent.] [
The potential of ‘Judgment of Anubis’ is raised to the limit because it uses its ability without being noticed by the Egyptian gods!]
[Necromancer-related abilities Temporarily rises to Lv100.]
[Time limit: 0h:4m:59s]
There are no more tiny Skeleton Warriors.
There was only a knight with a body of up to 2m and armed with black armor.
Blue eyes glowed from the pupils that were as empty as the abyss.
This being is evaluated as one of the strongest in the undead series.
It’s Death Knight.
The end of countless experiences and growth, a state that can only be reached in the very distant future.
T-Bone skipped at once through the nomination of the opponent.
“Stupid! Don’t you know that if you attack me, you’ll rather sacrifice your magic?”
“Sorry, but the opponent is not considered to be attacking me directly. Besides, being undead, they are not affected by curses.”
I didn’t bring T-Bone, who wasn’t Alice or Wolyeong, here for nothing.
T-Bone was the only one out of the three, so I chose him because he was the most suitable for this situation.
“no way… It can’t be!”
Tangrasil hurriedly examined the magic power in the tree.
Indeed.
Of course, the wounds from the cutting of the trunk should have healed immediately.
Somehow, the wounds remained the same.
Throbs! Throbs! Throbs!
The terrible pain as well.
“What? I don’t know if I was joking around, but… Do you believe in a toy like that? A Death Knight that is at most the level of a sword master?” ”
Not all Death Knights are the same.”
At least for this moment.
The Empire Even the proud grand sword master Ebraham or the 10th master of Murim cannot be T-Bone’s opponent,
because Egypt’s upper deity’s abilities have fully bloomed.
” Master.” ”
Command
