295. The iron wall that protects the world. Shaman (3)
“Keah!”
The shaman vomits blood.
Taesan twists his sword and tramples on it. The shaman crashes to the ground.
“Keuuugh!”
he doesn’t give up He desperately wielded his sword and activated his skill.
However, the fight
was already leaning as it leaned. Taesan trampled on the shaman’s struggle with force and subdued him.
Caang!
A violently swung sword blows away the greatsword. It smashes the armor and pulverizes the helmet.
Kwajik.
As if it were the last time, the sword pierced his chest again.
[The Shaman received fatal damage. The immortality created was activated. Becomes immune to all damage for 10 seconds, but dies after that.]
“… Ha.”
Shaman lets out a breath.
“A monster-like guy…”
His eyes as he looked at Taesan contained astonishment and disbelief.
“It’s really absurd. Someone who couldn’t even step on the depths knocked me down…”
He laughs.
“This is ridiculous…”
He was an iron wall protecting the world.
In the outside world, no one could penetrate his defenses, and he alone
faced a large army.
That didn’t change even after entering the labyrinth. The adventurers who first settled in the labyrinth were also amazed at his defense. After receiving their recognition and becoming their teammate and going down the labyrinth, no one really could easily penetrate him.
He thought he only had a bright future. He knew that there was an adventurer coming down from above, but he believed that it would not be enough to deal with him.
I thought that the only thing left to do was to break through the blocked floor just in time and go down like this to reach the end of the labyrinth
.
But I can’t imagine dying here like this.
I was frustrated and vain.
“But… I was defeated.”
The loser had to accept defeat meekly. he said, suppressing his emotions.
“Congratulations. it’s your win our enemy.”
After saying that, Shaman’s body collapsed.
In-depth adventurer. The Shaman, who lived in the Labyrinth for countless
years and boasted near-absolute power, died here.
[You have won against Shaman.]
[Your level has risen.]
[Your level has risen.] [Your level has risen.] [
Your level has risen. ]
[Your level has risen.
Spiritual elevation has been activated. Permanently increased physical strength by 8021, strength by 721, agility by 832, and intelligence

[Your spirit level has been increased. Acquired the special triggering skill [Burgous Wind Rush].]
[Your spirit level has been raised. Scouting proficiency has risen by 5%. Acceleration proficiency has risen by 4%. The leaping proficiency is…]
[Your spirit level has been activated. You obtained the special always-on skill [Forced Stamina Steal].]
[You
won the battle against an adventurer who stepped on the depths and won. [Enemy of the one who stepped on the depths] was obtained.]
“Hu.”
Taesan took a deep breath.
He leaned his back against the wall.
It was not an easy opponent.
Even though he fought while ignoring the opponent’s biggest card, defense, there were dangerous moments.
The skill of the great sword itself was threatening, and the continuously regenerating stamina felt like dealing with a monster rather than the same adventurer.
But he won.
I overcame it and am here now.
[You’ve come this far after all.]
Even the ghost was admiring it. He knew that with the power of Taesan, he could win against Shaman. Even if the opponent stepped on the deep layer,
the compatibility itself was overwhelmingly superior, so the possibility was sufficient.
But even if I knew it, seeing it in person felt different.
The fact that Taishan had won against the shaman meant that his revenge was right around the corner.
[Well, it won’t be that easy.]
“I had a great advantage this time.”
Shaman boasted of absolute defense, but Taesan had absolute determination.
But other leaders will be different. They
probably didn’t focus on defense like the shaman.
‘Is it yet?’
There was still a slight difference from the leader of the guide.
But it was really soon. And with this victory, we are even closer.
“Status window.”
[Gangtaesan]
[Level: 134]
[Shield: 5909/5909]
[Health: 71320/71920]
[Mana: 6560/6560]
Mo}: 878/878]
[Strength: 12239]
[Intelligence: 11041]
[Agility ] : 12995]
[ATK + 4158]
[DEF + 2882]
[Target is in excellent condition.]
Taesan laughed.
All stats rose to nearly 2000 in just one fight.
And now, she caught up with Lee Taeyeon’s strength, agility and intelligence stats perfectly.
It was a horse even though he hadn’t stepped on the depth yet. It was a monstrous growth.
The stats weren’t over. He also obtained several skills and equipment.
[The broken one. Helm of Bahalam]
[Attack Power + 150]
[Defense Power + 300]
[Action Speed + 10%]
[A broken and broken one. A helmet used by Bahalam as a mortal.
It’s all worn out and broken, but the value contained in it hasn’t faded.]
And the perfect clear reward.
[The hardest armor in the world, smelted in the deepest part of the world.]
[Strength + 60
[Defense + 600]
[Magical resistance + 10]
[The deepest and deepest. Armor forged by hundreds of blacksmiths who gave their lives in the bottomless pit
. Its value does not fade even in the labyrinth where the gods gather.]
Overall, it was a high level of equipment. not bad.
And the shaman’s skills obtained by winning against the shaman with Spirituality Rise.
[Special activation skill: Furious speed]
[Proficiency level: 1%]
[Mana consumption: 10]
[Swings the sword like a storm and
runs forward. You can control the movement to some extent.]
Shaman used this skill to press Taesan. Because of the difference in stats, it wasn’t that threatening, but if the stats were similar, there was a good chance it would be quite powerful.
[You activated Furious Run.]
Blame it.
Kick your feet and sprint forward. The sword strike cuts through all directions like a storm.
“Not bad.”
Speed and strength increased compared to when not using the skill. Although not a large percentage, it could be an advantage in long-term battles.
[Special always-activated skill: Compulsory physical strength stealing]
[Proficiency level: 1%]
[When inflicting damage on an opponent, recovers physical strength equal to a certain percentage of the damage
dealt
.]
I don’t know what the percentage would be. However, Shaman was an adventurer who entered the labyrinth a long time ago.
The proficiency of this skill must have been 100% or close to it. And based on Taesan’s experience, when the proficiency of a skill reaches 100%, the performance itself changes.
It wouldn’t be strange if he recovered 20% of the damage he inflicted. And the shaman had more than 10 health recovery skills.
The proficiency of those skills must have been very high. Now I could understand
why he boasted such ridiculous stamina.
[Special constant activation skill: Enemies of those who stepped on the depths]
[Proficiency: 1%]
[All stats increase when dealing with adventurers in the depths. The amount of stats increased for adventurers who went down deeper.]
It was a skill that made it easier to fight against the leaders.
And besides that, the proficiency of many skills has risen. If you add them all together, it was a tens of percent increase in proficiency.
‘ also.’
head office. In-depth adventurer.
Since they are strong people who have been in the depths for hundreds of years, maybe more, if you defeat them, you will get a very big reward.
“after.”
Taesan caught his breath. he won Now it was time to descend the labyrinth.
[Starting the 65th floor quest.]
[Dig up and break through the secrets of the witch’s realm on the 65th floor.]
[Reward: Green Witch’s Staff]
[Secret Reward: ???]
The 65th floor is covered with green grass throughout
the walls and floors. It was a filling layer.
The monster that appeared was a plant-type monster. I tried to grab Taesan by shaking the stem.
Taesan subdued the monsters. As much as his stats were much higher than before, he was able to take them down without much effort.
Taesan thought as he broke through the floor.
‘The leader of the guide.’
their counterparts. And where does their strength come from?
After dealing with one of them, I finally
got the hang of it.
It wasn’t a stat. At this point, Taesan’s stats are higher than Lee Taeyeon, who cleared the depth.
Of course, Lee Tae-yeon is a special case in which he missed many things and cleared the labyrinth only with expedients, but even so, the level of clearing the labyrinth would be higher than that of the guides of sin on the 70th floor.
In fact, Taesan overpowered Shaman in terms of stats.
And he had overwhelming skills that Shaman did not have.
But he couldn’t overwhelm against Shaman.
Of course, as long as he didn’t use the last chance, endurance, or gray power, he could afford it, but it wasn’t an easy victory.
‘equipment.’
The only equipment that Shaman used meaningfully in the battle with him was a greatsword. The skill of the great sword is a blow that splits mountains.
Even Taesan, who had an advantage in stats, was difficult to block properly. It was found that the superiority of stats could be countered with equipment.
And there was one more.
‘Skill proficiency.’
When you think about it, it was natural.
The Guide to Sin has long resided in the depths. That was even before the ghost entered the labyrinth.
Would they have stayed still for all that time? Obviously not. They must have developed their strength by competing swords and fighting each other. In the process, he gained numerous skills and his skill proficiency inevitably increased.
‘It’s only natural.’
Taesan had forgotten about that. It was because Lee Tae-yeon, the only one who had cleared Alone Mode, who he had personally sparred with, was not like that.
Her combat skills were not that great.
Since most of them were basic combat skills, even if their proficiency was high, it wasn’t that great.
And Lee Tae-yeon, who was always looking for ways other than combat, had a lot of special skills related to combat avoidance, but few skills that were useful for combat also played a role.
It was a very high proficiency compared to the Taesan Island floor, but the Guide to Sin would have perfected almost all skills.
I could tell just by looking at Shaman.
He has over 10 health recovery skills.
Each one of them was a skill acquired at the end of an immeasurable amount of time in the labyrinth. Its effect is on a different level from basic skills such as Possession or Attack.
Due to the effects of the skills, Shaman
did not fall even though he received more than 100,000 damage. Rather, it put pressure on Taesan.
Even if Taesan had those skills, would such an infinite recovery be possible?
The answer was impossible. Skills change with increasing proficiency, and the width increases as the proficiency increases.
When the proficiency of forced duel is 1%, it takes 10 seconds, but when it reaches 100%, it becomes 1 minute.
There was quite a difference.
The leaders of the guides you will meet in the future will not be different from Shaman.
no. will be stronger than that
Shaman fought without a skill close to his core, a defense skill.
I had to prepare for it.
Taesan grabbed his sword and broke through the floor.
Shaman’s defeat. And Taesan’s victory.
The news was also known to the leadership.
they gathered together again.
Level up with skill
