Episode 100 The Gray Temple (4)
Slowly!
When touched by the extremely compressed flame, the iron shield was cut like a piece of paper.
“To think that a shield infused with demonic magic could be shattered in one hit.”
“Aww! What kind of laser level is this!”
That’s what it says.
The fire was aimed at cutting, not burning.
The problem is that there are hundreds of them.
Furthermore, it seemed difficult to dodge the flames as they were simultaneously closing the distance from all directions.
‘What happened to this!’
Takeshi looked at Jinhyeok with puzzled eyes.
Because it was none other than Jinhyeok who said that the left side was the correct answer.
Please tell me that this murder trap is just a performance and there are ways to solve it.
However, Jinhyeok secretly avoided Takeshi’s gaze.
“Yeah. Who knows, they’ve dragged a very raiding party to Hell. Isn’t this usually the engineering chief’s fault?”
It was even natural for him to quietly pass on responsibility.
got hit
Takeshi felt a shock as if he had been hit in the head with a hammer.
But there was no time to regret.
“Oh, we have to avoid it somehow!”
Avoid, not block.
The fact that the tanker’s shield couldn’t hold it meant that no one here could stop that stream of fire.
“shit!”
“Everyone run!”
Players of the Samurai Guild quickly jumped.
ankles and knees. Everyone was sweating profusely and working like crazy to survive the killer traps that were aiming for the back and neck.
‘Anyway, newbies…’
Jinhyeok smiled and took out a black scroll from the subspace inventory.
And the sealed seal was released.
Whoa!
[The 1st Job Change Quest of the Sealed Temple begins.]
In order to become a Sealed Sealer…
The explanation was lengthy, but Jinhyeok skipped the status window as if there was nothing to see.
There was no point in reading the descriptions as long as I knew what to do.
‘It’s about materializing the fragments of the barrier for the job change. Let’s lie down and eat rice cake.’
Jinhyeok focused his magic on the tips of his fingers.
Parts!
A pure white spark occurred.
Soon after, a huge and colorful pattern appeared in the air.
It was a barrier inscribed with runes.
[The barrier ‘insufficient physical barrier’ is activated!]
[The first condition of the job change quest has been achieved!]
Although the modifier ‘insufficient’ was added, a barrier in a quite plausible form was unfolded.
‘Before changing jobs, this is the limit.’
Originally, if you want to change your job to a barrier priest, you have to stay in the library on the 1st floor of the tower and learn beginner rune language for at least 6 months.
Of course, it took a lot longer than that to use barriers that could be used in battle.
Even Jin-hyeok, who was immersed in the game, took five years to learn the last step, the ancient rune language.
‘Certainly… It’s definitely not an easy field.’
It is not classified as an unpopular job for nothing.
I chose virtual reality as an escape from reality, but no one enjoys having to study all day and night in the library.
“Ah, player Kang Jin-hyuk, what the hell is this…”
“Is it magic…?”
“no. something different Is this the first time you see that text?”
Lee Young-kwon and the rest of the players were taken aback by the rune words that suddenly appeared.
They had seen barriers that were sometimes activated through skills, but
this was the first time they had seen real barriers activated with formal runes.
But the sentiment did not last long.
Because the streams of fire were approaching right in front of me.
“Skills and abilities are useless against them. We have to move too.”
Lee Young-gwon threw his shield and armor on the ground to lighten his body.
however.
“it’s okay. You can just stay still.”
Jinhyeok relaxedly crossed his arms while looking at the barrier surrounding the players in the form of a cube.
“Go stay still. What do you mean?”
Lee Young-kwon asked, but Jin-hyuk only smiled meaningfully.
and that moment.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
A stream of fire hit the barrier.
“Kuk!”
“Wow!”
The players screamed. Thinking that the body would be severed along with the barrier.
however.
“uh?”
“what is this. Are you fine?”
There was not a single scratch on the surface of the barrier.
no. It’s not that level.
The stream of fire stopped at the surface of the barrier and started to head in the opposite direction.
Toward the players of the Samurai Guild who are jumping up and down even at this very moment.
“ah. sorry! One more goes that way.”
Jinhyeok took the place of an apology by slightly raising his right hand.
“This can’t be…”
An earthquake occurred in Lee Young-gwon’s pupils.
Surprisingly, so was the rest of the observers.
“To bounce that thing off.”
“I can’t believe it. I never thought there would be players with reflector-type skills.”
“As expected, S-class is on a different level.”
I already knew through several videos that Jinhyeok was amazing.
Korea’s 16th S-class ranker.
Chun Yoo-seong, also known as the Sword Demon, is, of course, the master of the Heukun Guild. A monster who took and pressed Hong Deok-pyo.
A pioneer who first conquered the 4th and 5th floors.
Even if the achievements were listed in a row, it was about sticking out the tongue.
However, seeing it with your own eyes is a story of a completely different genre than simply being told through video or words.
pounding! pounding! pounding!
Everyone’s heart was beating fast.
A sense of security felt just by being with a top ranker.
It was a limb in front of the barrier, but I didn’t think it was dangerous.
But just then
“Shall we go soon?”
Jinhyuk moved.
It is trying to get out of the barrier.
“omg!?”
“Go Jin-Hyuk Kang! wait a minute!”
“yes?”
“The trap is not over yet.”
“that’s right. It’s dangerous to leave now.”
With an urgent voice, Lee Young-gwon pointed outward with his finger.
There were samurai guild players dying miserably.
I was trying my best to avoid the fire rushing from the front, left and right, but it seemed difficult to last that long.
ah. was that the story
“You don’t have to worry because I’m amazingly good at getting the timing right. Besides, in fact, if you evade that thing 300 times in a row without a speck of damage, you get an item.”
It’s called [Burning Flame].
Gives you a special item to use later.
This is quite an advanced book…
How.
Do you have a brave person to challenge with?
Jinhyuk smiled and looked around.
“it’s okay.”
“Gather up a lot, player Kang Jin-hyeok.”
“We’ll just watch from the back. Ah yes.”
Even if you give them a hidden item, no one will readily step forward.
Anyway, newbies these days have no guts.
Crunchy!
Jinhyeok, who loosened his joints lightly, went out of the barrier.
Dozens of flames are tightly packed, but it is cute for an old person who has already memorized all the patterns.
To the fast-tempo music playing in your head.
‘Judge. Bit please!’
Jinhyeok started moving in earnest.
‘Left three three right three three. Then you had to jump forward and roll 1m, right?’
There were gaps that a person could barely pass through.
This time I have to go through them.
If you make even one mistake, you die.
Even so, on Jinhyeok’s face, there was no sense of tension that a human being should have.
＊＊＊
“Haha… I really have nothing to say.”
Lee Young-kwon muttered with a depressed expression.
He too proved his worth in the gladiator arena on the 5th floor. Also, I received great expectations from various media outlets.
‘I can’t even imagine.’
Measured movements and confidence that can be felt from a distance.
And beyond all of that, even the attitude of enjoying this situation.
I didn’t think I could surpass my opponent in any field.
‘That’s why team leader Kim Ki-tae said that we should be willing to endure even if we suffer losses.’
In fact, Lee Young-gwon heard one request before coming here.
A request to give up all the benefits that the Guild will fight in this raid.
At first, Kim Ki-tae also wanted to place the conditions in favor of the guild, but soon decided to see a bigger future.
It’s a story that’s hard to accept.
Reward Honor Exclusive.
Who would be convinced if the second-largest guild in Korea had to put everything down?
There are cases where large corporations are greedy, but there are no cases where they give up their advantages.
but why.
‘The executives were wise.’
Lee Young-gwon was able to realize this desperately at this moment.
＊＊＊
The flames subsided after 30 minutes.
‘As expected, it’s a reward after sweating.’
Jinhyeok fiddled with a strangely shaped red jewel.
It was [Burning Flames].
‘It’s going smoothly.’
everything went as planned.
Now, if only Medusa is dealt with, all the materials to make ‘that item’ will be gathered.
It wasn’t long before the goal was reached.
by the way.
‘How many people do you think will survive?’
Jinhyeok, who put the item in the subspace inventory, moved his gaze toward the Samurai Guild this time.
“Huh. Huh Eok. Huh.”
“My… my arm! My arms are missing!”
“Aagh! Yo… Yoshida is dead!”
“Damn it! Start by identifying the injured and dead right now! I mean don’t mess around and move!”
It’s obvious, but the situation is not good.
Not a single one of the guys who came in confidently was sane.
At least, only Maeda, who had excellent skills, and Takeshi, whom he desperately defended, suffered only minor injuries.
After all, seeing a house on fire is the most fun.
Even more so if it’s the house of a nasty bastard.
“May the souls of the deceased refrain. This barrier is only for 30 people, so even if I wanted to let more people in, I couldn’t.”
Jinhyeok approached the samurai guild and gave words of deep consolation.
“This… you damn bastard!”
Maeda jumped up from her seat.
Is it because the eyebrows are singed due to the heat?
The savory smell vibrates.
“yes?”
“With an innocent face, I said, ‘Yes?’ Don’t talk the same bullshit! The fact that none of the Koreans were hurt must mean that they knew about the existence of this trap and the countermeasures! Am I wrong?”
“I kind of knew about it. Does that matter?”
“Is there any problem? Saying that now…!”
“Isn’t it? Accept the swearing that you will come together to the labyrinth monopolized by the father to fight. Also, I don’t know why you’re angry at us when you fall off a cliff and get smashed while giggling about whether you’re a deceased person or a nabal on the 30th floor giving you a bus ride.”
“Shut up! No matter how much, we are dying right in front of our eyes, and not saving them is what scumbags do. You don’t even have the slightest bit of sympathy!”
It sounds like sympathy.
Jeokban Hajangdo is oily resin. Being able to spit out bullshit like this in a row is also an area of talent.
but.
I understand.
“Originally, if you eat a lot of radiation, your mind can go back and forth.”
In movies, if you get gamma rays and eat plutonium, you become a superhero.
In reality, you have to be lucky to get hair loss and usually have a miserable ending with leukemia.
How hard can life be?
“…what?”
Maeda was at a loss for words at the shocking remark.
With a blank expression, he pondered for a few seconds to see if he had heard it properly.
“How dare you say such a thing? it’s crazy. Don’t you know that this could be a diplomatic problem!”
“A diplomatic problem?”
Jinhyeok’s eyebrows curled into a reverse shape.
I see you’re misunderstanding something.
“I am not a politician.”
Diplomacy and whatnot is something that the upper management cares about, not this side.
finally.
“You shouldn’t talk to me carelessly. The trap here isn’t over yet.”
Jinhyuk sighed coldly.
at the same time.
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
The scattered flames began to gather in one place.
A moment in the blink of an eye.
The overlapping flames suddenly formed a single shape.
“Shhhh!”
In the form of a huge serpent made of flame.
