# 274
274. Catastrophe (5)
The next evening.
In the hangar on the second floor of the waiting room, heroes preparing to compete on the 80th floor were gathered.
Only about one thousand of them. It is safe to say that this raid, which consisted of at least 5-star high-ranking heroes, was everything in Taoneer.
‘You mean you won’t leave behind.’
If you convert the gems poured into the current raid into cash, more than 10 million won.
It was a power that was nurtured by investing for nearly half a year. If the attack on the 80th floor fails, Amkena will become an idiot. You have to start nurturing heroes from the beginning.
‘Many masters in Korea who were said to fly and long fell to their knees.’
The 80th floor of Pick Me Up.
It was a demonic gateway that allowed only 5 out of 100 million masters to climb.
In fact, 4 out of 5 of them had 7-star heroes, so there was only one Master who cleared the 80th floor among normal Masters.
‘Irrational.’
The difficulty of the 80th floor could be defined with this one word.
If hints were given to clear the previous stage no matter how difficult it was, the 80th floor didn’t even have that. A mission where no hints exist. Master and heroes had no choice but to find out how to break it. Of course, if the gamble fails, the heroes will return to nothing in an instant.
‘ha.’
I took a deep breath.
This is my last test to prove my qualifications.
If I collapse here, I will lose the right to choose.
What remains and what goes back.
[Pick Me Up!]
[RPG MOBILE GAME]
[Game Start]
[Account linking is required to play.]
The game’s access window appeared on the right side of the field of view.
A female knight with a melancholy expression while holding a sword and shield appeared in the background.
It was a slightly different screen from the usual login.
[※Caution!]
[Currently, Pick Me Up is running with ‘NUX PLAYER’. Be wary of using macros. If caught, it will be permanently suspended without warning.]
Amkena, who always played games on her cell phone, used Nux Player.
Nux is a program that runs mobile phone apps on a computer. It has the disadvantage of requiring a complicated and cumbersome authentication process, but once applied, the game could be played on a large screen.
‘I got the angle at all.’
I remembered the face of Amkena, who was making a stern expression in front of the computer with the door locked.
Which wasn’t a bad choice. If you’re playing on a computer, you can’t miss a single variable. Mouse play was more comfortable than touch.
Soon after, the authentication processing window came to mind, and Amkena registered the public certificate and entered the password.
[Welcome to Master Amkenna Pick Me Up!]
A hologram window appeared with a cheerful sound.
[Loading has finished.]
[TOUCH ! (selection)]
Amkena entered the main screen of Pick Me Up.
Immediately, the heroes waiting to participate appeared in the hangar.
[※Caution!]
[This mission is a mission that allows you to play unlimited heroes without limit! If you don’t have enough members in your party, use paid summons or free summons to recruit heroes!] [
This mission has a ‘fleet limit’ action!]
[Tips/ You can form a raid by grouping your party.]
[Tips / Airships cannot be used in missions with fleet restrictions applied.]
The mission warning window popped up.
There are two characteristics of this mission. It is an ‘unlimited mission’ that allows heroes to be deployed regardless of the number and a ‘fleet-limited mission’ in which airships cannot be used.
I clicked my tongue.
If you could use the cannon firepower of the fleet, your tactical range would be much wider.
The difference from the 80th floor of Niflheim was that there was no advance party and the fleet could not be used.
“You’re here.”
Jenna looked at me and squeezed her bow.
Jenna Belquist and I both kept our mouths shut and said nothing.
I looked around the hangar.
Heroes are filled without a gap to step on. Warriors, wizards, archers, and various other hidden classes.
Men and women of all ages were preparing for battle.
“Gentlemen, I believe you will fight well.”
Roderick, the current raid leader, continued his speech from the podium.
Unlike Edith, her voice was thick and blunt, but it contained an unknown power.
“If you finish this battle safely, you will be one step closer to your homecoming. In this decisive battle now… the fate of your hometown, Taonier, depends.”
If these guys had noticed, they would have guessed.
Why they were brought to the tower and what this mission was for.
Each of them was determined to fight with their weapons tightly gripped.
[http://go.onewinch.tv/ – Onewinch TV]
[Pick Me Up! – Taoni 80th floor]
[BJ – WindFlow]
[107053 viewers]
Meanwhile, Amkena also hit Baejin.
‘It’s a live broadcast.’
Until then, if you uploaded a play video after completing the mission strategy, now you are preparing for a live broadcast.
On the 80th floor, which can be called the highlight of Pick Me Up. A whopping 100,000 viewers. If you add the viewers of other BJs who illegally relay Amkena’s videos, it will double.
In a way, it was natural.
Because the challenge videos on the 80th floor of Pick Me Up were extremely rare.
I didn’t upload the 80th floor clear video of Niflheim either.
Even at this point, the number of viewers was growing exponentially.
The chat speed was so fast that I couldn’t even read them one by one.
[Try21: I came to watch all the heroes fight.]
[BlackCow: If I’m satisfied here, I’ll be treated as a ranker. Did you come here to prove black cow? The 80th floor wasn’t made for breaking.]
[Praisethesun : \\[+]// Tae! sheep! only! Three!]
[Ttukbaegi Oriental Medicine (breakhead3): Hahaha. crazy crazy crazy You want to break the 80th floor? Do you think Ji is Loki?]
[Last Live (Neven13): I think the accounts from 1st to 5th are English characters. The difficulty of the 80th floor is really strange. If you’re a normal user, you’ll never wake up.]
[Tactical7: Go after all the heroes! Mangem certification GAZAAAA! Sales ranking tteokrak gazuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[LilyZzang: damn it! Jeb! Jeb! Jeb! lose! Extermination! Extermination! Minago Roshi! Koroshiyas!]
Well, most of the viewers here came expecting Amkena to fail the challenge.
There’s nothing sweeter from a third person’s point of view than the collapse of someone else’s tower. Occasionally, cheering messages came up, but they were quickly pushed out by the continuous wallpapering.
I turned off my nerves at the broadcasting window.
What they will see anyway is only a small part of the filter.
Simple game graphics can’t properly represent even one hundredth of what I actually see and feel.
[Ready.]
I heard Roderick’s voice in my ears.
It seemed that the opening speech was over.
[※Caution!]
[This mission is extremely difficult and requires a lot of time to clear. Before playing the game, make sure you have enough free time and don’t miss anything! Once you try, you can’t go back.]
[Optional mission – 80th floor: Do you really want to challenge?]
[Yes / No]
Clap.
I firmly gripped the Bifrost’s scabbard.
[Yes (optional) / No]
Amkena touched the play button.
hangar corner. Isel, who appeared sprinkled with star dust, twirled her hand.
[Hahaha! I’m going!]
Beads of sweat appeared on Isel’s forehead.
Isel, who was concentrating on his strength, stretched out his hand.
[Open the dimensional gap!]
Ugh.
A large mirror-shaped portal came to mind.
[All troops march!]
The front of the hangar.
The rider waved a red flag and entered the portal.
And according to the instructions, a thousand heroes began to enter the mission one after another.
“Let’s go too.”
I stepped out.
The target is a mirror dozens of meters ahead.
‘The preparations are over.’
All that remains is conquest.
If only the 80th floor was broken, it was not far off to complete the mission.
From the 81st floor, the difficulty is surprisingly not high.
“Remember what I said yesterday. No matter how impossible it may seem…”
“There is a strategy, right?”
“At least half of the guys here are going to die. Never mind. Just think of what we’re going to do.”
“Object Occupy and Special Target Handling.”
Belquist murmured.
I nodded. The basic quantity warfare is left to Roderick and the Master.
We must prioritize what only one party can do.
[It’s finally the beginning.]
Pajijik!
A dark red electric current bounced off the shoulder.
Halgion crackled his beak and opened his mouth.
[The future of Taonier depends on this mission. let us be by your side You must win.]
Halgion became lightning and disappeared.
I smiled and walked forward.
[AZ: Sirius-Jang…]
[Nihaku: Fighting Master!]
It seems like everyone else is watching.
I hate being a spectacle, but I can’t help it.
Immediately, the light emitted from the mirror engulfed my entire body.
‘Familiar sense of levity.’
It feels like my body is being sucked into the deep sea.
Some time passed and I opened my eyes.
A clear midday sky caught my eye.
If there’s anything else…
[Current progress – 99%]
[‘Advent’ will start when it reaches 100%]
[Prepare for a master battle!]
Cracks are carved in the sky as if it were CG processed.
Beyond the rift, countless loach-like figures wriggled.
I lowered my gaze.
The roof of the imperial palace glistening in the sunlight.
Underneath it, the officers of the princess’s army, including Freea and Yoshu, were gathered.
[To the location!]
As soon as we arrived at the field, the heroes started to scatter in an orderly fashion.
It is to form a defensive line so that the enemy can block it no matter where it comes from. They ran to the gates located in the north, south, east and west of the ecliptic and raised their weapons.
[I’ll leave the key strategy to you. Please.]
Roderick’s communication cut off.
I walked to the entrance of the imperial palace.
Yoshu trotted towards me and bowed his head.
“You’re here, brother. I’ve been waiting for you.”
“The current situation?”
“Weightlifting is still holding a sit-in within the imperial palace. We’re planning to launch a rush operation within today…” ”
Today?”
“Yes. This is Your Majesty’s order.”
I increased my walking pace even more.
It wasn’t long before I was able to meet Freea in a commanding robe.
“one.”
Freea said without looking back at me.
“Have you made your decision?”
“Of course.”
Fria spoke in a low tone.
And he firmly gripped the sword at his waist.
It didn’t seem necessary to explain it in words.
“You’ve come just fine. In an hour, we’re going to start an assault operation with the elite. The purpose is to subdue the prince and capture him alive. We have to put an end to the situation before it gets any more serious.”
Freea looked up.
The crack in the sky is invisible to normal NPCs. The mercenaries standing guard around them would have no idea what was about to happen.
“I’ll go with you. Han, help us. If you use your hands in advance, the damage will be reduced as much as possible…”
“There’s no need to do that.”
A loud bang!
With an explosion, glass and stone shards flew in all directions.
“Get down!”
“Ugh!”
“Your Majesty! ”
I leaned down.
A piece of marble passed over my head.
Soon, dust accompanied by the wind blew in. I
opened my eyes wide.
Through the collapsed walls of the imperial palace, I saw the figure of Prios sitting on the throne.
A young boy and a girl next to him. “You ‘ve barely
revealed that disgusting face!”
Yoshu, who was buried in the rubble, jumped up to his feet. The blade of the sword
was pointed at the face of the prince.
“It seems like His Majesty’s lineage will forgive such outrage. what! Tens of millions of people have shed tears of blood because of your tyranny. No more…” “I
won’t forgive you
?”
“Yes ,”
Yoshu
growled
. All the people at your death…”
“All the people.”
“Look around, Prios!”
Prios turned his head.
The entrance to the palace and the streets along the main street were full of mercenaries
. “All I can see
is dust to be cleaned.”
Prios waved his cloak and stood up.
[Finally, I can finish it.]
[Fulfill the contract, Prios!]
Boy and the girl murmured with a refreshing voice.
The prince smiled and raised his fist to the sky. Pajik! The cracks in the sky
became clearer.
[Current progress – 99%]
“Ohhhhhh!”
An
unpleasant cry that seemed to pierce the brain from within.
The sky was about to fall.
“That’s… no way!”
Fria raised her sword,
a golden glow wrapped around her body. [Dimensional sword ‘Rusrada’ is awakening!]
A brilliant brilliance began to flash from Freea’s sword.
I can’t forget it. It was a fusion type item of three keys that sent the egg of chaos from the 50th floor at once .
Gritting my teeth, I lowered the dimensional sword strongly.
Flash!
The brilliance emitted from the sword blocked the crack
. This is the power of a legitimate successor!”
“Is it a dimensional sword?”
“This is the sword the first emperor gave to His Majesty! With this, we bring peace to all Taoni…”
“I will bring peace?”
Praios
grinned.
Yoshu frowned.
glass. Were these three? Certainly, Ruthrada was the secret weapon of the Taoni. Without it, I wouldn’t have lasted even a month.”
Jenna, who was next to me, whispered.
“By the way, can we just watch?”
“What can we do? My mission is like this.”
I sighed. Even
if I wanted to jump first, there was no way.
My body didn’t move at all, as if I was being held by a transparent hand.
I was just a spectator until the event was over.
‘It was a secret weapon?’
Prios is speaking in the past tense.
As if he had used it before.
[Hahahaha peace? It sounds like a bug.]
The boy Rantia smiled.
At the same time, Prios held out his hand.
“Something like a dimensional sword.”
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.
Dazzling light gathered in his right hand.
「Passing through seventeen worlds…」 A
brilliance dozens of times greater than the one held in Fria’s hand. A
brilliant light as if the entire sky was dyed golden. [Dimensional sword ‘Rusrada’ is awakening!]
[Dimensional sword ‘Rusrada’ is awakening!] [
Dimensional
sword ‘Rusrada’ is awakening!]
[Dimensional sword ‘Rusrada’ is awakening!] [
Dimensional sword
‘Rusrada’ awakens…]
Prios
lightly swung what he was holding in his
hand
.
[Fragments of Chaos Lv.113] X 795 [

[Fragments of Resentment Lv.121] X 674
‘Coming.’
I gave strength to my hand.
