Boundless Necromancer Chapter 239

239. God of Proof (2)

Whoa!

「You have entered the Sacred Zone < The Field of Proof [Step 2] >.」

After passing through the newly created portal, the scenery changed.

Could this be the stage of < Proof Stage [Step 2] >?

After rolling my eyes for a moment, I could see that it was a maze-like place made of an unknown stone-like material.

But the peculiar thing is that all the roads are blocked like one.

‘What is this again?’

It’s a maze-like place, but I can’t move to another place…

It was heterogeneous.

But there was no time to think deeply.

As I was looking through this maze that didn’t even look like a maze, I heard a voice in my head.

―…Ugh. It’s like a goddamn holy zone restriction. I feel like my head is about to break

It was Damcheonwoo.

It seems that his consciousness was cut off because he was switched to an item-unavailable state until now…

In < Proof Stage [Stage 1] >, he forgot about it for a while because he only repeated battles without talking for a while.

In response, I immediately spoke to Dam Chun-wu.

“Are the rituals okay?”

―…It’s just that. But I feel the worst. Everything in sight seems to be rocking.

“I’m glad it doesn’t seem to be too much of a problem.”

―Fortunately, it’s a bitch. If I had known this would happen, I would have entered the inventory a long time ago. I never thought I would cut off the ceremony right away without warning.

It seemed that he was quite annoyed that his consciousness was briefly interrupted by the sacred ground.

But he didn’t get annoyed for too long.

Just look around and figure out the situation.

very quickly too.

―…I can roughly understand. It seems that the first stage of < Proof Chapter > has just finished. Have you just entered the second stage of < The Field of Proof >?

Even if it rots, is it Junchi?

As a challenger who had climbed to the top, he was not slow to grasp the situation.

I nodded my head, thinking that it had saved me the need for a cumbersome explanation.

“you’re right.”

―Probably a task like escaping a maze… Strange.

“Did you notice?”

-joy. Even if you try to stay unaware, you can’t. For some reason, all the passages leading to the exit are blocked.

As the saying goes, this maze was quite unique.

In terms of shape and size, this place is undoubtedly the most suitable for a maze

.

As I quietly questioned him, a new message popped up in my field of vision.

「The Sacred Zone < Proof Field [Step 2] > task has occurred.」

「※Task description: Survive 100 days without dying in the living maze with the will to kill.」 「

※Task success condition: survive Do not be killed until the maze in the maze reaches death after 100 days (0/1)” 「

※Task Success Reward: Clear Stage 2 · Random Skill Book (B+) · Random Stat Potion (B+)」

And—.

“A living maze…?”

The moment I read all the contents written in the system message. 「The task of

the Sacred Zone < The Field of Proof [Step 2] > begins.

」

Survive with all your might.”

An unexpected situation occurred.

***

Koo Goo Goong…!

“…”

Suddenly, the maze itself shook greatly, and at the same time, the walls of the maze rose like fangs.

In response, I quickly kicked off the maze floor and quickly retreated.

Soon, the walls of the labyrinth rose sharply and passed through the empty air.

Even if it happened in the blink of an eye, it was normal to understand it right away.

“I never thought the maze itself was the enemy…”

But there was no time to be surprised.

Kwagaga…!!

A stabbing series of attacks that continued as if they were not going to give them time to rest.

Even the maze itself, a place where you can set foot, was an enemy, so it was difficult to control your body.

Of course, his transcendent physical ability, which reached over 400 stats, allowed him to move between gaps in the attack…

but he didn’t have to move so complicatedly.

「Wind Spirit’s Boots (A+) exclusive effect, ‘Wind Road’ is activated.」 It is

possible to maneuver in the air only with exclusive effects without using abilities such as steel wings or walking in the air.

Of course, it would be appropriate to use other abilities for long-distance flight…

In the current situation, rather than flying or leaping, the ability to move the body smoothly is required.

So it was right to use the wind spirit’s boots.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!

But it didn’t take long to dodge into the air.

It was worth it.

Because the skin of the labyrinth, which had risen before I knew it, was wandering around like a blade.

It could even be called madness.

Even that is not the only problem.

‘…It’s not all about going wild without thinking. The space within the maze itself is getting smaller and smaller.’

This living labyrinth was trying to crush me by intelligently shrinking space.

I’m guessing that if I keep going like this, I’ll be crushed by the maze’s skin in less than 10 minutes.

In response, I quickly swung the Blood Heaven Demon Sword…

but it didn’t yield any meaningful results.

Kagagak-!

‘The durability is also considerable, so I can’t break it easily, right?’

At most, it was only a slight scratch on Miro’s skin.

Oh, of course, Miro’s movement shrank a little, as if he thought it was a blow.

Looking at this, it doesn’t seem like it’s a difficulty that can’t be cleared at all.

The real problem was none other than time.

-…her. To endure this for 100 days. I don’t think there are many people who don’t die.

100 days.

Having to endure the battle with this living maze for 100 days.

Whatever else might be, this was not so easily satisfied.

Perhaps a huge number of people died because of this condition?

―Compared to the previous tasks, the difficulty gap is serious.

To that, I responded by avoiding the living maze’s series of attacks that surged up from everywhere.

“Iknow, right. It depends a lot on your fighting ability. It is unnecessarily annoying.”

To be honest, this living maze itself wasn’t too difficult to deal with.

ability to maintain combat?

I already had a body no different from that of a half vampire.

Perhaps, as long as the divine and magical powers do not decrease, it will be able to last for up to a year.

But-.

“Damchunwoo.”

You don’t have to waste your time on useless things.

“From now on, just grit your teeth and bear with it, even if it hurts.”

―…What?

“Anyway, the Blood Heaven Demon Sword has an indestructible option, right? Pain is enough if you endure it with guts.”

―No… What kind of bullshit is that! Can you bear the pain? Explain in detail…!

I warned Dam Tianyu in advance of the pain that would come, and immediately channeled magic into a piece of equipment on my arm.

「Moonlight-infused wrist guard (A) exclusive effect, ‘Moonlight protection’ is activated.」 「A

shield made of moonlight covers the whole body in proportion to the amount of magical energy consumed by the user.」

Wrist guard imbued with moonlight.

One of the items I received as tuition (?) from Kirl Lujian after the battle.

And at the same time, an item with the effect of artificially generating moonlight showed off its value.

Whoa…!

At the moment when a moonlight-like protective shield is created that envelops the body, vitality rises once more.

「Conditions satisfied.」

「Physical advantage < Moonlight Favor > is activated.」

It’s nothing else…

「With moonlight, all stats increase by 10%.」

「With moonlight, all types of growth speed increase by 10%. I do.”

The < Moonlight Favor >, a physical advantage that I had not been able to properly use until now, was activated.

The effect of increasing all stats by 10% is also true.

The +10% growth rate for all types is presumably added to the increase in skill proficiency.

So, it was right to use this < Moonlight Favor > unconditionally in the future situation.

But even that was not enough, so I soon activated the myth < The Possibility of Transcendence >.

In fact, at this point, it can be said that all growth merits have been applied…

‘Are you ready with this?’

Now it’s your turn to act the way you think.

「The power skill ‘Starlight’ is activated and a starlight containing divine < death > is created.」

The moment I created a starlight containing dark red light in my palm without hesitation.

「The skill ‘Unextinguished mortal flame’ is strongly activated.」

Fire-!

The dark red starlight was accompanied by an ominous flame, and they began to rebel against each other.

I smiled deeply at him and grabbed the entirety of the flames created in my palm.

Black starlight streamed out from between the fingers that were clenched into fists.

Did you understand the situation then?

―You such a madman! I couldn’t believe it, but to endure the pain…!

At the same time as the dark red flash flashed, a sound like a scream came out from the Blood Heaven Demon Sword.

There was no room for attention.

It was worth it.

Because before I knew it, light flowed from my clenched fists and there was an explosion.

And—

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…!!

The destructive divine starlight wrapped in black flames engulfed everything.

***

「Absorbed the spirit of the living maze ‘Ludrond’.」

「Challenger Han Seong-yoon’s victory brought her 0.4% closer to ascension.

」 ”

From now on, challenger Han Seong-yoon’s physical endurance will be stronger than before.”

The messages of Shinhwa < The Possibility of Transcendence > came to my restored sight.

‘You’ve won…’

I won against the living maze and became stronger as a reward.

Of course, the body was messed up by the aftermath of the shock.

Still, most of the items were intact, probably thanks to the intensive protection.

Even the intestines, which had been completely shaken, were immediately restored by the gray blood.

Then I turned my head and looked around.

“It is miserable.”

The combination of the unquenchable mortal flame and the holy light that evolved with the Power skill brought about tremendous results.

The living labyrinth disappeared without leaving a trace, standing in a heavily scorched desert.

There must have been a creature called Maze here…

It seems that it was left in the desert because it exploded without leaving a trace.

“The skill combination is better than expected.”

It was more fun than I expected.

Because all available shields were used to protect items, there was no loss of equipment.

Even combining skills to discover new combos was quite beneficial.

It was even more so when considering the increase in skill proficiency gained through this.

‘Activating < Moonlight Favor > increased the skill proficiency rate.’

Do I have to say that it is worthwhile to see a match by combining skills?

After a long time, I got a lot of benefits by combining my physical strength < Moonlight Favor > and skills.

To the point where I felt proud of my choice not to fight with the sword.

However, it was only for a while that he was soaked in such feelings.

「You have cleared the < Proof Field [Step 2] > task in the Sacred Zone.」 「

*You will be able to enter the < Proof Field [Step 3] > as a reward for completing the task.

」 A ‘Random Skill Book (B+)’ will be sent.」

「※As a reward for completing the task, a ‘Random Stat Potion (B+)’ will be sent to your inventory.」

Messages that you have cleared the < Proof Stage [Step 2] > come to mind, and the rewards are full. paid

Random skill books and random stat potions.

Both were rewards that were by no means low level.

‘No matter how you look at it, the rewards are salty compared to the difficulty level.’

It was the moment when I was about to browse the inventory with a light smile on him.

―Turn it off… This… You

look like a madman… Now you must have come to your senses.

―If you are going to openly use the self-destruction technique… At least protect me…

The tone is close to screaming.

Is it difficult even with the indestructible option obtained from the 16th floor < Savior of the End > quest?

After that, Damcheonwu said nothing more as if he lost consciousness… but

it didn’t matter.

‘Even if I use the self-destruct technique, the Blood Heaven Demon Sword won’t be destroyed, so what does it have to do with it…’ Even

if I faint for a while like this, I’ll wake up after a while, so I immediately turned my eyes to the reward.

‘Oh, come to think of it, I didn’t even use the skill proficiency increase potion I had previously obtained.’

In response, I immediately took out the ‘Skill Proficiency Up Potion (B+)’ from my inventory and drank it.

「You took a skill proficiency increase potion (B+)」

「Select a skill to increase your proficiency」

And then.

「Selection complete.」

「Challenger Han Seong-yoon’s skill, Unextinguished Mortal Flame (S-)’s proficiency will increase by 30%.」

After completing the skill proficiency increase, I immediately opened the skill window.

『Skill – Unquenchable mortal flame (S-)』

『Proficiency – 92.711%』

『Description – A causal flame that brings about mortal causality.』

『Effect – A mortal flame that consumes 10% of body mana per second and never goes out Should I say that this

is the result of making the best use of the skill proficiency increase potion as well as the eternal flame of mortality?

The mastery of the skill reached a high level of 92.711%.

Perhaps, if you continue to fight more intensely and use your skills, your proficiency will reach 100% before long.

Therefore, expectations were high.

‘I wonder how strong he’ll become once his new level rises.’

I smiled lightly at that and took out another reward from my inventory.

These were the new rewards obtained by clearing < Chapter of Proof [Step 2] >.

The reason for taking these out of the inventory was simple.

It’s nothing else…

「Random skill book (B+) is used to acquire a B- grade skill at random.」

This is because I intend to use up all the rewards right now.

「The authority skill ‘Blessing of the Hero’ is strongly activated.」

「Luck temporarily and intensely increases.」

And.

「The skill ‘Equipment Durability Interlock (B-)’ is created.」

As if that thought was correct, I liked the newly created skill quite a bit.

『Skill – Interlocking Equipment Durability (B-)』

『Proficiency Level – 0%』

『Description – This is a skill that can link the durability of the user to the durability of the equipment.』

『Basic Effect – All equipment that comes in contact with the user’s body is Durability increases greatly in proportion to the durability value of.』

『Detailed effect – All equipment that comes into contact with the user’s body is automatically restored in proportion to the user’s

durability value .』 The effect wasn’t too complicated.

You can increase durability in proportion to the durability value of the body and use automatic restoration without covering all items that come into contact with the body.

I could say that was all.

I thought that there should be some level of item restoration function, but…

“I got a good skill at the right time.”

I never thought I could get such a passive skill by matching it like this.

When a useless skill appeared, I was going to immediately change it to skill synthesis, but it didn’t seem necessary.

Even this time, Shinhwa < Possibility of Transcendence > got the exclusive effect ‘Energy (E+)’.

This is an unexpected increase in efficiency.

‘Perhaps the warrior’s protection made adjustments so that something like this would come out.’

Then I drank the rest of the reward, ‘Random Stat Potion (B+)’.

It was the first time I took a random stat potion, but there was nothing special about it.

It was because after a short time passed, he felt the mana power in his body rapidly rise.

「Ingestion complete.」

「One of the stats increases by the random stat potion (B+).」 「

By the random stat potion (B+), the magic power of challenger Han Seong-yoon increases by +10.

」 situation without use.

So now it was decided what to do.

That’s right…

「You have entered the Sacred Zone < The Field of Proof [Step 3] >.」

It is to take on a new task.

After going through the portal, I found myself in a place that looked like a medieval square.

But there was no time to worry about it.

In the blink of an eye, a system message popped up announcing that a new task had begun.

And…

「The Sacred Zone < Proof Field [Step 3] > task has occurred.」

「※Task description: Secretly assassinate the emperor who worships the devil without any witnesses.」

「※Task success condition: as much as possible Assassinate the emperor without witnesses (0/1)”

「※Task Success Reward: Clear Level 3 · All stats +10 · Potion to increase designated stats (A+)」

The moment you read everything that popped up in the system message without omission.

“Assassination…”

Then I smiled and was sure.

That would be…

“Interesting.”

Originally, assassination was my main specialty.

“The third task is to eat it raw?”

It was an assassination so clean that it left no witnesses.
