Episode 388 Side Story 1 Rapor’s Labyrinth (3)
“Huh!”
Baek Woo-jin exclaimed as he looked at the maze navigation in Seo In-ah’s hand.
‘It wasn’t just a map?’
A red line is drawn on the holographic map spread over the maze navigation. The line spread into numerous crossroads and began to find its way to the map.
This is why Seo In-ah was so confident in the maze navigator’s ability to not only create a map of the maze, but also find the path to the maze.
‘It’s an innovative piece of equipment.’
It may seem complicated to adjust the frequency, but it is no exaggeration to say that it is a revolution in mazes and labyrinth-type dungeons, as it is a device that prints a map and finds the path in less than a minute.
“Incredible.”
He smiled admiringly as he approached her.
“Right?”
Seo In-ah laughed, putting her hands on her waist. The confidence that had hit rock bottom just a moment ago was nowhere to be seen.
“Each space has something called the frequency of mana. “The maze navigator is a device that understands the flow, creates a map, and finds the way.”
She pointed to a red arrow finding the way through the maze.
“It’s fast and you don’t miss anything. However, the downside is that finding the frequency is unstable.”
“But if you look at the results, the shortcomings are easily offset.”
Baek Woo-jin checked the map and sighed in relief.
‘If I had found it myself, I would have wasted a lot of time.’
The size of the maze and the number of intersections far exceeded expectations, so much so that the 20 minutes Seo In-ah spent was nothing.
No matter how much you move, it seems like at least a day will be wasted.
“I told you earlier. I’m sure Ina will be of great help. “With this amount, you didn’t just pay for the meal, you paid for the meal at Surasang.”
“Woohuhu.”
Seo In-ah wiggled her fingers like a baby. I felt ashamed and satisfied at the same time.
earth!
When the maze navigation device she was holding beeped, the red lines that filled the maze map disappeared, leaving only one line.
I followed it with my eyes and saw that the maze was connected from the beginning to the end. The answer to the maze has been completed.
“That’s Okay!”
Seo In-ah ran around, spinning her hand holding the maze navigation device like a windmill.
“If you follow this path, you will be able to go straight to the entrance to the fourth floor!”
“Then let’s go to the completed road. “There are monsters and traps inside as well, so stay behind.”
“yes!”
Seo In-ah, who regained her original confidence, nodded her head vigorously and grabbed the black gun.
**
Thanks to the maze navigation, Baek Woo-jin easily broke through the 3rd floor maze of illusion and the 4th floor spirit land and arrived at the 5th floor entrance.
‘That’s a great thing.’
The maze navigation system operated by Seo In-ah led them to the exit of the maze without a single error.
I felt like I had gained two days thanks to getting through the two floors without getting lost.
“I think I saved at least one day thanks to Ina. “If I hadn’t brought him because it was dangerous, I would have been in big trouble.”
“Oh, it’s not that bad. “Don’t fly the plane.”
“It’s so salty. “You know I don’t talk nonsense.”
“Even if it’s just empty words, it feels good.”
He shook his head and held out his hand. Seo In-ah held that hand in a familiar way.
“Let’s move on.”
“yes!”
I entered the passage of black light while listening to her powerful answer. A huge path appeared along with the sensation of my body floating.
The road was straight, and both sides were blocked by tall, building-like walls.
Right behind it was a gem emitting blue light, and at the end of the road there was a black hole with no visible inside.
‘It doesn’t look like an exit.’
There was no way the passage to the next floor would be left this easy.
“I don’t know what it is, so don’t move.”
As I was examining the hole, I heard an emotionless voice.
[Fifth layer of trials. The sapphire defense battle begins.]
[Protect the sapphire floating behind you from the monsters coming out of the black pit.] [
The first wave occurs.]
As soon as those words were finished, a horde of orc troll ogres came out of the black hole.
It seemed as if a sea of green was rising from the rush of so many monsters.
“If it’s a defensive war, does that mean we have to protect this place?”
“I think so. “Stay next to the jewel.”
“yes!”
Seo In-ah trusted herself and stepped back, clinging to the jewel.
“There’s no need to just block just because it’s a defensive battle.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled excitedly as he pulled out his sword.
Quaaaaaaaaaaa!
The energy of the Black King Bullet that bloomed from the blade of Seolyeonggeom swept away the large army of monsters that were running.
The storm of sword strikes ended and all that remained was a black hole.
[The second wave begins.]
As I approached the black hole, I heard a voice saying that the second wave was coming.
Coo coo coo coo!
A huge number of monsters rose again from the hole.
“There’s no need to come out.”
Baek Woo-jin’s eyes lit up and he struck Muryeongcham.
“I’ll break it to pieces.”
**
Quang!
The Sphinx, who was watching the screen in the golden room, hit the floor with her front paw.
“What on earth are they?”
When I broke down the walls on the first and second floors, I didn’t think it was a big deal. In fact, there were many people who broke the walls of the maze and went to the next floor.
However, that method does not work in the third layer of the Labyrinth of Illusion.
Although they had to move their bodies to find the path, the two men and women walked the correct path without a single mistake.
It made no sense to slap the goddess of luck.
In addition, the man gradually revealed more strength than the helplessness he initially felt.
‘They’re not ordinary guys.’
It was clear that he was hiding his skills as he erased all the monster waves with one sword and tore up the holes from which the monsters came out.
“Similar to the strange guys who came before.”
Those two smelled similar to the two strange men who came in two days ago.
One of them also cut down monsters with strong force, and the other broke through traps and mazes with his scent as if he were a dog.
There were people stronger than them, but I had never seen anyone overcome an ordeal so quickly.
“Tsk!”
Sphinx clicked his tongue as he looked at Baek Woo-jin and Seo In-ah waiting for the entrance to the next floor.
‘If it was like that, we would have broken through the sixth floor quickly…’
Looking at those humans, it seemed like they would quickly reach where they were.
It hasn’t even been long since the labyrinth was set up in this world, but I can’t let them set foot in the final floor.
“Oh, I guess I’ll have to do that.”
The Sphinx chuckled and twirled his finger. According to his gestures, a new layer of the labyrinth was being created.
“Let’s have a fight among yourselves.”
**
Baek Woo-jin easily passed the fifth floor, the defense battle, and arrived at the sixth floor.
It was a huge room in the shape of a dome stadium. However, the center was blocked by an opaque wall.
“What is that?”
“I do not know. “But there are people in there.”
“A person?”
“yes.”
I don’t know who was on the other side of that wall because of an unknown energy, but there was definitely someone inside.
“I guess I’ll have to fight anyway.”
“You’re fighting?”
“yes.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded and looked at the wall again when he heard Labyrinth’s voice.
[The trial of the sixth floor. The land of struggle begins.]
[Only one side that defeats the opponent behind the wall can head to the next floor.]
[The wall disappears after 5 minutes.]
As expected, this was a room for a duel.
-oh! A duel! duel! Because I found the way to the maze. This time it’s your turn!
-I’ll take care of it, so just keep your mouth shut.
Korean was heard from beyond the wall. The first man’s voice was very light, and the second man’s voice was serious.
“That voice…”
The voice was so shaky that I couldn’t hear it well, but it felt like I’d heard it a lot.
-hey! I don’t know who’s on the other side, but you’d better surrender! There is a fearsome swordsman here! It was like
the voice of the first man.
-Shut up!
The second man screamed, probably because he was embarrassed.
“Ha…”
Baek Woo-jin chuckled. When I heard the tone of voice just now, I could clearly tell who was behind there.
“Baekgaju Bae.”
Seo In-ah looked at herself with trembling eyes, probably because she was worried.
“Do not worry.”
I felt some warmth through her shoulder and then looked up at the wall.
“Surrender?”
-okay. If you surrender right away, I won’t risk your life. Instead, take one of the things you have…
-I’m embarrassed, so please shut up!
The second man was seen grabbing the first man by the collar and shaking him.
“Shall I make a prophecy?”
-Eh? prophecy?
“You will be on your knees as soon as this wall disappears.
-Kehehehe!
The first man burst into laughter like a cartoon villain. I hold my stomach and laugh.
-What kind of Baek Woo-jin are you? You’re good at talking bullshit! Even if my head gets blown off, I won’t kneel!
-Why did you bring up his name here?
-Quek!
The second man hit the first man on the back of the head.
‘also.’
Baek Woo-jin held back his laughter as he looked at the silhouette of the beaten man.
-I also make a prediction! You will fall down with everything you have taken from me.
“You’ll know when you see it.”
As I was leisurely waving my hands, a voice came from the ceiling.
[The duel begins now.]
[You win when your opponent dies or admits defeat.]
As the voice ended, a voice was heard from beyond the wall again.
-We have no intention of admitting defeat even if we die! Let’s fight like crazy!
-Um….
The second man didn’t say anything as to whether he agreed with that.
But as soon as they see you, they will immediately fall to their knees.
Wooooow!
After a while, the wall split to the left and right like a curtain, revealing the figures of two men.
“uh?”
“Huh oh oh!”
“ah!”
The two men behind the wall knelt down as soon as they saw Baek Woo-jin’s face.
“That prosecutor!”
“Why is the head of the family here?”
As expected, the two people on the other side of the wall were Moon Ju-young and Mu Young-gaek.
“They said they would never surrender. “Isn’t it too easy to change words, like flipping a pancake?”
“I didn’t know there was a prosecutor! surrender! Surrender unconditionally!”
Muyounggaek raised both arms and screamed.
“It’s unspoken.”
“….”
Moon Joo-young also raised her hand.
“I sent you on a trip, why are you here?”
“I was going to China to meet Cheongsal and came back because I smelled treasure.”
“Did you enter the Chinese pyramid? “How long has it been since you came in?”
“Today is the second day.”
“Two days?”
Baek Woo-jin looked at Mu Young-gaek and laughed.
‘As expected, this guy’s nose is really…’
Judging by the fact that he arrived here in two days without Seo In-ah’s tools, Mu Young-gaek’s nose was unrivaled when it came to treasures.
“But why are you here, prosecutor? And with Sister Seo? “Are you already dating someone else just because your sister-in-law went to Kengak to train?”
“You’re quick-witted. “We were on a date!”
Seo In-ah smiled brightly and crossed her arms.
“oh! Leg of lamb? Respect! Prosecutor! After all, there is someone I can serve…”
“Defeat is not accepted. Should I break the back of his head?”
“omg! “I will shut this mouth!”
As I approached him, turning my clenched wrist, Muyounggaek was startled and fell flat on his face as if he was bowing.
“Has the head of the family also come in to erase the pyramid?”
“okay.”
Unlike Mu Young-gaek, Moon Ju-young seemed to have come in to clear the pyramid, not to find treasure.
“You…”
[The winner has been decided.]
When I was about to call Moon Joo-young, a voice said that the winner had been decided, and a black hole appeared on the floor.
“uh?”
“Eh?”
And the bodies of Mu Young-gaek and Moon Ju-young, who were defeated, became transparent like well-polished glass.
“Oh no!”
“Ugh! Prosecutor! “Please save me…”
Moon Ju-young and Moo Young-gaek disappeared without even being able to say everything they wanted to save.
‘Is it below?’
Baek Woo-jin looked down and narrowed his eyes. Although it was only for a moment, the presence of the two was felt deep underground.
‘There’s other people’s energy too.’
In that place, not only were there signs of Mu Young-gaek and Moon Ju-young, but there were also signs of other talented people. It seemed like everyone who couldn’t pass the labyrinth was trapped down there.
“What happened?”
“I think this is their way of taking the losers with them.”
Baek Woo-jin clenched his fists as he looked at the black hole leading to the next floor.
“I need to pick up the pace a little more.”
