Episode 165:
The dungeon was shaking.
This is usually a sign that occurs when a break begins, but the four people knew that it was not just a break.
“What happens now?”
“I don’t know everything.”
Taehyun slyly played it off.
This is because predicting something that hasn’t happened yet can raise suspicion.
“Hmm…”
Ignoring the four people who were looking anxious.
Taehyun clenched and unclenched his fist.
One hour after fighting Medusa.
The body had fully recovered.
Taehyun unleashed his magical power.
Quaaaaaaaaa.
Magic power exceeding 300 filled the area controlled by Medusa.
It is prepared so that the skill can be used at any time.
“Huh…!!”
“Fuck…”
“That’s amazing…”
“…!!”
The expressions of the four people changed once again due to that enormous magical power.
A strength that cannot be said of players like themselves.
It was a feeling of awe at encountering that strength.
“From now on, party 1 will be played by guild leader Kwon Kang-hyeok, party 2 will be played by guild leader Kwak Si-yang, and party 3 will be played by Park Seong-jin.”
“What should I do?”
Ayoung took the initiative and asked.
“You go around and apply to three parties.”
“okay.”
“Player Kim Tae-hyun, let me explain first….”
“Oh, that guy talks a lot. “You’ll know it when you see it.”
At the same time, a scream was heard outside.
The monster attack has begun.
After a while, the two players who were standing guard came in.
“We’re in big trouble!! “Monsters are pouring out of the gate that suddenly appeared!!”
“go. “If it weren’t for you, he would be difficult to deal with.”
Kwon Kang-hyuk grabbed Kwak Si-yang’s waist and ran out, followed by Park Seong-jin and Im Ah-young.
Taehyun, who was left alone, activated his energy to the maximum.
The magic power has already been unlocked.
My physical senses were sufficiently heightened.
‘Where are you?’
Numerous monsters were detected by Taehyeon’s magic power.
Monsters are moving into the open gates from all over the dungeon.
Most of them are A~S+ grade monsters.
It was at a higher level than the guys in the existing Milan dungeon.
‘I’m going to die quite a bit.’
So far, there have been no major crises or casualties.
That was because this place had a simple structure for an unexplored dungeon.
As you deal with the monsters one by one at the entrance, you will come to a room with a boss.
The room is huge, and there is only one monster that rules the dungeon.
‘This is the common sense the association has at this point.’
It was different in my previous life.
At that time, there were already a variety of dungeons that went beyond the concept of double dungeons.
SS-level monsters have powers and abilities that go beyond common sense.
His special abilities surpass those of S-class players, not to mention his physical abilities.
Among them, there are particularly strong monsters.
The association gave them a rating of +.
If we consider it as S grade, it is a mark indicating grand.
Judging by the information obtained after regression.
‘There is a high possibility that such a person received the power of the Archduke.’
‘Kaiselin’ I met at the tower in Yongin.
‘Centamion’, who killed the demon sword Nakata Shinji with one blow.
‘Venom’, who is believed to have killed Ricky Harlis in his past life.
All of them were stronger than Medusa, whom they had faced just moments ago.
so.
There was a high possibility that the person who would appear here now also received the power of the Archduke.
‘It won’t be easy since he has someone as good as Medusa under him.’
When Taehyun was thinking like that.
I felt a huge magical power encroaching on my surroundings.
“…!!”
A gate was being created right in front of us.
The size of the gate also indicates the level of the monster.
In that respect, the gate in front of me was well over 5 meters high.
Quaaaaaaaaa.
An unusual amount of magic leaked from the gate.
Pajik. Fazizik.
The two magical powers mixed together and sparks flew.
‘You caught it right.’
There are two things I have realized while dealing with SS-rank monsters so far.
One is that they are extremely arrogant in proportion to their power, and that they are interested in strong humans.
‘If you spread your magic like you are now, they won’t be able to come to you.’
Taehyun strengthened his magic power and watched the gate.
I think about a minute passed.
Jerk. Jerk. Jerk. Jerk.
A man walked out of the gate.
Close to 2 meters tall.
Blue and red odd-eye.
Likewise, long hair with a mixture of blue and red.
Of course, it was my first time seeing this face.
‘Humanoids aren’t surprising anymore.’
I’ve already seen many monsters polymorph into humans.
Taehyun was not an immature player enough to understand his opponent based on his appearance.
More than anything.
A considerable amount of magical energy was flowing from the being in front of me.
There is no need to control the enormous magical power inherent in it.
[Where is Medusa?]
Even though the man’s mouth did not open.
The meaning was conveyed in Taehyun’s mind.
It was the language of monsters.
“You knew everything, right?”
Taehyun said as he pulled out Valhalla from his belt.
[ha ha ha. That’s interesting.]
Pajijik.
I just laughed.
Nevertheless, the magical power was amplified, and the balance that had formed during the Baek Middle Ages collapsed.
Taehyun’s magical power began to weaken in an instant.
Fazizik. Pajijijik.
7 to 3.
The ratio of the space currently occupied by the man and Taehyun was.
“Basilisk. “It’s worth the name.”
[How do you know my name? Did Medusa tell you?]
Taehyun shook his head.
“Medusa didn’t even have time to say that. and.”
[Hmm?]
“The name is not the only thing I know.”
Taehyun took a step towards him.
Tiring.
[Skill Shadow Skin (AAA) has been activated.]
Quad deuk.
First, the body was strengthened.
“The techniques you use. “I’m definitely aware of that, too.”
next.
Ssssssut.
Taehyun’s body just disappeared.
* * *
Just before Taehyun encounters the Basilisk.
There was chaos outside the door.
“Stop it!!”
“Don’t back down!!”
Kwasik.
Drake’s kick caused one B-class tank to die.
“Holy shit!!”
The man who lost his companion in an instant looked around.
As an A-level player belonging to the Magicians, he has dealt with various monsters.
Although he has set foot in the depths of the Abyss a few times.
It was my first time witnessing this number of monsters.
A-grade monster Drake.
A-grade monster Sneider.
An S-class monster, Imoogi.
S-class monster Hydra.
Not only that, but they are creatures that would not be strange if designated as S+ grade.
Two Grand Hydras were causing a stir.
So so so so so.
Ayoung quickly froze two Grand Hydras.
It was only a short time gain, but it was enough time to counterattack.
“Ryaap!!”
Kwon Kang-hyuk, who turned into a dinosaur, knocked over a Grand Hydra.
In that gap, Park Seong-jin cut off his head and Kwak Si-yang shattered the magic stone.
One S+ grade monster was dealt with while five casualties occurred.
“That’s a huge number.”
Seongjin Park said with an expression of boredom.
We dealt with quite a few monsters while getting here.
But still, this much monsters are pouring out?
I don’t know, but this double dungeon didn’t seem normal either.
Of course, the form is also very different from what I knew.
‘Kim Taehyun… How on earth do you know this? No, more than that, what is he doing in there….’
The moment you ask that question.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa where who who who who who?
A huge explosion was heard.
Taehyun was inside the door.
Then, a wave of magical power swept through the area.
dump. dump. dump.
Some players were unable to withstand the force and fell.
“What is this….”
“…!!”
“Fuck… I’m going crazy.”
“Kim Taehyun…!!”
Only then did the four people’s bodies stiffen as they realized the situation.
Other players did the same.
Even if we block this ridiculous rush.
‘If Kim Tae-hyun loses, we too die.’
The shadow of death seemed to linger.
* * *
Kaang!!
‘hard.’
Taehyun threw himself out along with the bouncing Valhalla.
Kwaang!!
This is where Taehyun was standing just a moment ago.
The place exploded without warning.
‘That’s an annoying ability.’
Quang. Quang. Quang.
Taehyun suddenly fell back due to the series of explosions.
[Is running away all you want to show?]
A humanoid monster.
The Basilisk sneered and stopped moving.
“No way.”
Taehyun said and canceled his hiding.
I tried it just to see if it would work.
However, I only realized that no matter how high my stealth skill was, I could not fool SS-class monsters.
‘Especially in front of that Odd Eye.’
Taehyun recalled the information about the basilisk he had heard in his past life.
The monster that the raiding party encountered after killing Medusa.
Basilisk, the ruler of two dungeons, was later granted an SS+ rating.
He was subdued by a separate attack team organized by Cody Cruz.
Until the end, he showed the ability to bring quite a few players to Gildongmu.
Cody Cruz, who had a hard time defeating the Basilisk, said this.
His Odd Eye uses ‘space explosion’ and ‘hypnotism’.
At that time, the basilisk that stopped the space explosion spread its arms.
[I want to have a conversation with you. Human.]
The moment when his odd eye starts to sparkle.
Tiring.
[The use of magic power has been detected. I was under a ‘huge spell’. It resists with mysterious power. There was some success in resistance. Magic power penetrates. Petrification progresses.]
[‘Great magic power’ is at work. Strength decreases by 15.]
[‘Great magic power’ is at work. Stamina decreases by 10.]
[‘Great magic power’ is at work. Speed is reduced by 5.]
[‘Great magic power’ is at work. Magic power decreases by 10.]
Taehyun laughed at the message that appeared before his eyes.
I felt my physical abilities dropping.
“You bastard. “The guy who wants to talk is pulling out the bottom?”
[…]
The Basilisk remained silent at the unexpected sight.
In that moment, Taehyun took out the potion and drank it.
It seemed like this was enough for the exploration.
[Phew. The bug is hastening death.]
The magic power of the Basilisk, which revealed its true colors, increased.
Taehyun also activated three skills.
Tiring.
[Skill Lord’s World (AAA) has been activated. Physical abilities improve.]
[Skill Monster Eyes (AAA) has been activated. Specifies the opponent’s movements.]
[Skill Lord’s Awe (AAA) has been activated. The target person is identified.]
Kwaaaaaa.
“Fuck your head.”
Kugugugugugugung.
The magic power weighing down Taehyun was clearly visible.
The Basilisk’s expression crumpled for the first time.
