Episode 248. Dragon Killer ‘Balmung’ (2)
‘I never thought I’d be exploring… like this.’
Pesis denied the reality several times while watching the scene unfolding in front of her eyes.
It had to be.
Because this was a horror that was far removed from the existing thrilling adventures.
“Hey!”
“Sah, save me!”
“Eh, master bone hit. Really bone hit!”
T-Bone and the ancient soldiers were getting used to being completely frozen or burned.
When the body was half-destroyed, the process of restoring it with magical power and putting it into the next trap was repeated.
But the shock didn’t end there.
When higher-level traps that were difficult to handle with the undead came out, Jinhyeok brought out new summons this time.
They were spirit beasts of the five elements that elementalists draw in their dreams.
“Oh…oh! Did you even sign a contract with the Spirit Beasts?”
Phesis’ voice rose an octave.
Spirit water that is rarely seen.
It was also a very rare scene that all the spirit beasts of the five elements gathered in one place.
“Ah. These guys?”
“Yes. I know them as beings that do not sign contracts with humans, but I’ve never seen a player who signed a contract with five. It’s hard to find someone with such a high affinity among the residents.”
“It’s not like I’ll give you a taste of hell if you betray me. Everyone opened their hearts to me because I treated them with warm love and sincerity. Right, guys?”
Jinhyuk smiled brightly.
As everyone hesitated, Jinhyeok smiled even deeper.
“Why is the answer late? Am I wrong?”
“Ugh, ugh.”
“We have the best owners in the world.”
“I think it’s better because we haven’t seen each other in a while. I wanted to see you sooner than later…
”
As if to tell you what learned fear is.
“Did you see? Everyone is happy, right?”
“…That’s right.”
“Then, please guide us again. We’ll have to hurry to get back before the sun rises.”
Jinhyeok hummed and moved on.
After that, numerous traps appeared, but thanks to Phesis’ guidance and the performance of the summoned creatures, they were able to escape.
How many hours had passed like that?
***
The place we arrived at through the rough road was a large hollow open on all sides.
Because of the huge abyss of unfathomable size, I couldn’t see an inch ahead.
However,
‘…it is passed on.’
The magical power of the Dragon Slayer Sword, which was active in mythology, stimulated his entire body.
pounding! pounding! pounding!
Jinhyuk’s heart beat fast.
If you break through the last step, you can finally get your hands on a new sword.
Roaring!
As more than a dozen ‘primitive flames’ swayed, the darkness of the great community began to dissipate.
The first thing that caught my eye was the tens of meters of white bones.
The demonic dragon ‘Fafnir’.
I saw the body of a dragon that had been suffocated by Siegfried.
And in the middle of it, despite the passage of many years, there was still a sword that did not lose its spirit.
‘It’s been a while since I’ve seen you again.’
That is Balmung, the dragon-killing sword that slashed the dragon.
I wanted to run right away, but the miasma flowing around Fafnir’s corpse was unusual.
Blinded by the sword, they approached without knowing it, and before taking a few steps, they would be reconciled with blood.
“We’ve finally come this far.”
Jinhyeok muttered with eyes filled with anticipation.
As soon as I saw the sword, I felt that the hard work of the past few hours had melted away.
“The most difficult trap still remains… but I don’t know if it’s possible because Jinhyeok’s summons are exhausted.”
Phesis’ gaze turned to the summoned beasts.
“Don’t let me know, master… my death…”
“Talk.”
T-Bone and the ancient soldiers rolled around on the floor, all in tatters.
hmm.
There was also a guy whose head was frozen. There was also a guy whose arm bones and leg bones had been replaced.
Looking at it like this, it certainly seems like you have suffered a lot.
Sooner or later, I’ll have to give her a milk bath full of calcium.
“Master. I don’t even have the strength to lift a finger anymore.”
“It was the biggest mistake of my life to be glad to see you after a long time.”
“Coke. Coke.”
“Everyone, be quiet. My head hurts.”
The spirit beasts of the 5 elements also collapsed on the spot with pained sounds.
“Mosquito Yi ….”
Sweet potatoes have been drooped to one side, so it seems to be a bit too bad.
There’s nothing you can do about it.
“Just take a moment to catch your breath.”
Jinhyeok took out a bunch of ingredients he had stored in the subspace inventory.
Egg of the Rainbow Shrimp Quadruple Mushroom Daebong (大鳳), which can only be tasted in the Tower of Trials.
Cheese from the goats of the Black Mountains and so on.
All sorts of delicacies poured out.
In addition, I prepared up to 3kg of magic stone powder, so it will be the best nutritional food to replenish your energy.
[You have used Lv4 ‘Different World Restaurant’.]
The cooking skill that everyone can enjoy transcending race has been activated.
It was a recipe that satisfied even the elves who lived only on dew and fruit, so it should satisfy the appetites of the summoned beasts.
Soon after, various steaming dishes were completed one by one.
Fantastic look and smell.
Saliva flowed from everyone’s mouths because their appetite was not enough.
“To prepare delicious food for us. I didn’t know that, and I thought the owner was an unscrupulous and evil business owner who pampered us…” “The
owner is warm on the inside, hehe.”
“Lord, master. I usually respect you the most in the world.”
“What do you mean, fire lizard or something. The owner said I’m the leader among the spirit beasts? Everyone line up straight.”
Undine waved her small arms left and right.
“Master, it feels like osteoporosis is cured.”
“Moongrak.”
T-Bone and the ancient soldiers also tasted the ogre milk, which was said to have a calcium concentration of 99%.
“mosquito!”
He couldn’t stand the sweet potato and took a quick bite of the largest shrimp.
good.
If you want to eat it, you have to eat it like this.
If only a whip was used, there was a risk of resentment or perverseness.
However, there was a concern that if I gave her only carrots, she would only fill up her stomach and become indolent.
Ultimately, the best way to train is to use the right mix of sticks and carrots.
Just like right now.
‘And the original psychology is that if you do well 10 times and do poorly 1 time, you will curse, but if you do 10 times badly and do well 1 time, you will be grateful.’
While everyone is enjoying a short break in a warm atmosphere.
[The ‘coin exchange’ has been activated.]
Left alone, Jinhyeok checked the coin exchange.
A total of six items are required.
[Mist Tree of Peshan Mountains – 35000 Coins]
[Middle Purification Stone – 15000 Coins]
[Whispers of Steel (Material Type) – 150000 Coins]
[Disintegration Accelerator (Material Type) – 22000 Coins x 3]
[Golden Thread (for 150000 km) – 50000 coins]
[Melmorman’s Ointment 500g – 15000 coins]
All in all, it’s 331000 coins.
‘It’s filthy expensive.’
I currently have about 83,000 coins.
About 250,000 more coins were needed.
‘To be in the Hall of Fame should have been well-received in views…’
Jinhyeok trembled and accessed the Top of Trials community.
[There is a player who received the title of grand duke from the empire? (Feat. Panties become grander)]
-Number of views: 30563225
-Popularity ranking: 1st place
Fortunately, the video that went up to the Hall of Fame was enjoying tremendous popularity.
Considering that it has been uploaded for less than 6 hours, it is a figure that transcends imagination.
– Drunk Rudolph: No hahahaha. Which player has the title of nobility? Do these two words make sense?
-National Institute of Korean Language: It makes no more sense to say that you misspelled all the spellings in one sentence.
-I like blue: but it’s really great. It’s not just a nobleman, it’s a grand ducal position. A principality guaranteed to be independent of the Empire!
-choigh-lonk: Are there any guilds in the world that have acquired bases of that size? Including the 7 guilds and other emerging factions.
-May our jungle be singled out: None. Recently, guilds have been scrambling to build bases, but everyone is struggling to prevent other forces from invading monsters. It’s not even a very good base.
There are two things that guilds are most frantic about.
The first was to be chosen by the residents of the tower, and the second was to secure a foothold to solidify their position in the middle class.
Of course, very few guilds have achieved both.
It would be correct to say that most of them were mountain bases located on the outskirts and without any nutritional value.
-Earth Defense Force Avengers: Of course. In the first place, it’s not at the level of comparing those thugs and the deceased person corporation. look at the members
– Ronaldo’s greed Ramos’ foul glass body of the veil: ㅇj. Because the dream team has gathered. Sword Saints and Saints are all Scout Rank 0 talents. And Kang Jin-hyeok is an out-of-standard monster.
-Cyber Leccacha: It’s a rumor, but it is said that the Gandhara Guild in India went to the Empire a while ago and was smashed. The opponent was a deceased person corporation.
– Go·Co Fan Club No. 1 fan: Wow, that’s really great. However, Unknown is not visible in the video. where did you go
-Kimchi Bogeumbap: At first, it seems that he only made the gesture of being together for a while and then went to do his own thing. Top rankers are always busy.
-Saeyeong Eonhwan: Well. Or, Unknown and Jinhyeok might be a little ambiguous to be together.
Just looking at the comments pouring in, I could tell how hot the interest is now.
‘Haha… Over 30 million views.’
The corners of Jinhyuk’s mouth twitched.
Amazing, Great.
At this level, buying items is not a problem.
No, if you can upload more diverse and stimulating videos in the future and create a solid fixed subscriber base, you will be able to look beyond these material-type items, even high-grade relics.
As I pictured such a future, a thrilling sense of exhilaration welled up from the depths of my heart.
but.
The joy didn’t last long.
that buck
with light footsteps.
“This is really amazing. We went through all kinds of troubles to find this entrance, but we couldn’t have imagined that it would lead to Balmung because we just followed behind.”
A strange voice came from behind Jinhyuk.
I didn’t feel the presence while approaching.
He was a guy with so much skill that he couldn’t even detect magical powers.
A man with silver hair and red eyes.
“Vampire….”
It was unmistakable that it was Jinjo, a pure-blooded vampire, exactly the same as Alice.
“Mosquito!”
“master!”
“Master. It’s a bad smell. It’s thick and ominous.”
The summoned servants showed hostility.
Because he had already had several conflicts with vampires, he instinctively felt rejected.
“Ohhh. But you’re finding out about me right away just because I signed a contract with a traitor. It’s quite good for lowly humans and summoned beasts.”
“Since I’ve been with a guy who has the word ‘noble’ on his lips all day, I’ve come to know him naturally.”
How come all vampires have their own unique arrogant tone.
Infancy? They seem to have been receiving early education as a group since childhood.
Since we were born, we are beings of a different class than other species.”
“So… which family did you come from? Did the Decassus family send another pureblood?”
“Half right, half wrong.”
Jinjo shook his head.
“Half right. What does that mean?”
“It’s true that I belong to the Decassus family, but no one sent me. I came here on my own volition.”
I came here on my own volition?
No way…
Jinhyeok’s pupils narrowed critically.
“Let me introduce myself. Amulam de Decassus. I am the head of the Decassus family.”
