Episode 183. Union of two layers (1)
“Kirik?”
“Kiii…”
The goblins approached as if possessed by something.
Half-closed eyes and a flaring nose. And the saliva flowing from his mouth seemed to be poisoned somehow.
that buck
My gait staggered even more.
right at that moment.
Puffer Puck!
Perpuck!
The men dressed in black quickly subdued the goblins.
After hitting the soft part of their necks with their blades from behind, the goblins collapsed on the spot like puppets whose strings had been cut.
seven swarms.
The number of monsters captured with this alone exceeded three digits.
Melena, who had been watching the absurd scene from the side, swallowed dryly.
I never thought
I’d see you seduce monsters with your scent…
“It was made by combining the items I bought at the coin exchange, right? Something like an elixir that puts those guys off their heads?”
Melena pointed to an urn in the middle of the aisle.
An unknown purple liquid could be seen bubbling.
But what matters is the smell, not the color.
A sweet scent stung his nostrils.
It probably only affects monsters.
“To be precise, only monsters with that pattern are affected. It’s efficient, but it also has its weaknesses.”
The ‘red pattern’ can be seen as a spell that can maximize the potential of individual monsters.
Because it was able to remove a significant amount of fear as well as combat power, it was often used by high-ranking shamans, but there is no technology in the world that has only advantages.
If you add ‘527mg of Mayabi bumblebee honey’ and ‘three-eyed skunk pheromone’ and ’15 peony flowers’ and cook slowly over low heat, you can make something quite interesting.
An elixir that weakens the power of patterns and creates an optical illusion as if walking through fog.
In addition, the ‘welcome prison’ was implemented through the barrier to save the details…
The monsters that come here are no different from flies that fly to carnivorous plants.
‘Of course, this method won’t work in their home base, but at least it will be useful to get there.’
This is enough to do my job well.
Melena, who was listening to Jinhyeok’s calm explanation, made another flagship.
“What is your true identity? No, apart from all of them, how the hell do you know how to do that?”
“How do you know? I came to know about it naturally after studying the Tower diligently in the past.”
“What nonsense is that! I’ve played [Tower of Trials] a lot in the past, but I’ve never heard of such a thing!”
“That must be because you only played with newbies.”
It’s an area where you can get a feel for it if you hang out with the old man who cuts the throat of a large monster with a carrot while wearing only underwear.
“Who is the newbie! I am also in my own way at the Mine Association…”
“Oh, I saw the great Mine without knowing it. Now that I know it, quickly put this leash around the necks of the monsters who caught it.”
Jinhyeok threw several leashes at Melena.
At first glance, it was a leash made of chains that looked crude.
“snood? What else are you going to do with this?”
“I will break through the trap.”
I received applicants at most, but do I use them only after teasing them?
When you get your hands on something, it’s wise to use it right away.
It was at the time when Melena, who had not yet understood what it meant, was tilting her head.
“Lord. Everything you said has been completed.”
Wolyeong approached and politely submitted a report.
Wolyeong’s face was quite flushed at the thought that she had completed the given task.
“Hmm. okay. Let’s see where you did it right.”
Jinhyeok smirked and followed Wolyeong’s guidance.
And after a while, where the three arrived, something splendid and terrible was completed.
A splendid golden carriage with a height of about 2m.
The black wheels made of brass and the intaglio pattern of the Heavenly Demon God gave off a tremendous sense of coercion by themselves.
“You really don’t fall short of the dignity of our school. Even the Dark Emperor will be happy with this.”
“Since the lord is satisfied with it, it is only Hwanggong who belongs to it.”
“Then let’s go soon.”
Jinhyeok got on the carriage.
I also felt the worth of investing expensive coins.
First of all, the riding comfort was no joke, and thanks to standing on a fairly high podium, the view was wide open.
The taste of the leather whip you hold in your hand… Yes. It was the taste of ‘power’.
‘This is why everyone is trying to climb to a higher place.’
Chow!
The whip left a thin scar on the floor.
OK.
shut up
The spirit beasts of the five elements lifted the feathers of the ‘Giant Bird’, sweating profusely.
“This is too heavy.”
“Master. We have short limbs, so we can’t… carry all of these things.”
“Save the spirit!”
“At that time, I should have returned to the spirit realm… I should have. Is it already too late?”
“Everyone is noisy. Your head hurts, so be quiet.”
It was in a maze without a single sunlight, but these details are important to match the assortment.
As expected, these feathers are essential for the royal procession.
thud! thud! thud! thud!
In front of the wagon, monsters connected by long leashes began to march along the aisle.
＊＊＊
Clap!
When the trap was activated, huge flames gushed out.
Roaring!
“Keeeh!”
One goblin in the lead turned into a lump of charcoal in an instant.
“This time, it’s a battle method using fire.”
“The traps are really diverse. If I had just gone, I would have had a hard time waking up.”
Maybe it was because they had seen so many similar scenes, but now Wolyeong and Melena seemed to think so too.
It is said that humans are animals of adaptation, and there is nothing wrong with that statement.
‘As expected, this method is the best.’
Jinhyuk waved his whip leisurely on top of the carriage.
Use the enemy’s subordinates to break through the traps designed by the enemy.
What could be a safer and more effective strategy than this?
Kwaaang!
With a roar, another goblin died.
“It’s safe, but I think it’ll take quite a while to do it this way?”
“I was going to use the second card anyway.”
All the maps of the maze were already drawn in Jinhyeok’s head.
In other words, he memorized everything, including the locations of major traps as well as places where large-scale monsters could stay.
Jinhyeok nodded, and this time he let go of the chains held by the members of the Black Wind Society.
charrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
“Koooooo!”
“Gooooh!”
The ogres wearing wedge-shaped helmets on their heads started to run, screaming all at once.
I don’t know the direction either.
Due to the nature of the helmet covering their eyes, they wouldn’t even know where they were going.
All they were allowed to do was run forward with all their might and crash into the wall with their wedge-shaped helmets.
It was the only mission.
Wow!
The wall collapsed, revealing a huge hole in the passageway.
The ogre that crashed into the wall with such a great shock also fainted or died, but it seemed that it had completed its mission.
“Voila! Do you have a road?”
Jinhyuk spread his arms wide.
In anticipation of cheers and applause.
of course.
“….”
“….”
The eyes of the people watching were cold.
It’s like looking at a demon king who came out to play in the present world.
Even the gnomes and salamanders were choking themselves and poking their eyes out.
Mmm. Was it a bit harsh?
“Hmm. greatness! Everyone is risking their lives to climb the tower, but you’re not trying to assert something like ‘Monsters have rights’, right?”
“Who said what? I didn’t say anything.”
“You’re cursing with your eyes. Employee to boss.”
“I didn’t, sir?”
Melena smiled brightly. The eyes are smiling but the mouth is not.
[Lv9 ‘Eye of gluttony’ is activated.]
[What the target says is ‘lie’.]
You’re swearing. That’s because it’s very sticky.
‘I’m going to have to do some image renewal.’
A leader is a way to step forward in front of strangers.
Jinhyeok bought another item from the coin exchange.
Unlike the ones I bought earlier, it was a cheap pickaxe worth 200 coins.
“Lord. Are you going to go out on your own? But that’s a bit…”
Wolyeong shook her head quietly as she looked at the pickaxe that was about to break.
“If you need to clear a road, let us do it.”
“You don’t have to go out on your own.”
Even at the black wind meeting, he tried to stop Jinhyeok with a troubled face.
Of course, it may look clumsy at first glance.
Even if an ogre hits the wall with all his might, even if he hits it with an old pickaxe like this, there’s no way it’ll get even scratched.
but.
That’s what normal people think.
‘I’m different.’
You made a lot of impressions on the bosses of the 9th floor with various performances.
Now it’s time to get those guys off their heavy ass.
Whoa!
Jinhyeok expressed different skills in both hands.
Grab the blade of the pickaxe through ‘Giant’s Hand’.
And in the other hand, a flame broke out through the ‘fire element’.
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
As the pressure and heat met, the surface of the pickaxe began to glow red and black.
‘It’s a little difficult to do it after a long time.’
In fact, it is a skill that players without advanced blacksmithing skills cannot even dare to do because it is necessary to control the exact heat and pressure.
Among the rotting old figures, there are at most two players who can do this?
Finally, through the 3-star ‘amplification barrier’, the expectations of all abilities were maximized.
The entire labyrinth trembled violently from the tremendous magical power.
How many minutes had passed?
Finally, the magic that Jinhyeok had poured into was captured.
Tring!
[You have created a ‘diamond pickaxe’!]
[Your precise and amazing skills will be listed on the ‘Hall of Fame’ tomorrow!]
[The deity ‘Father of Iron and Fire’ admires your talent.]
[The deity of the upper classes Some express interest.]
If it is the father of iron and fire, he belongs to Olympus.
For someone who hammers all day, that’s pretty interesting.
Currently, even the raw meat residents of the middle class do not possess the technology to make items in this way.
‘The subtle harmony of science and skill will make your eyes wide open.’
Jinhyeok smiled and checked the pickaxe he had completed.
[Diamond Pickaxe]
Obtained Difficulty: A
Durability: 1000/1100
Attack Power: 550
Description: An item specialized for mining, it can also be used to break through walls in labyrinths or mazes. When mining, attack power increases by 20%, and when breaking through walls, attack power increases by 10%.
The color of the pickaxe has been changed.
On the emerald-colored day, even an outsider could feel that it was unusual.
‘good.’
Jinhyeok lightly swung the pickaxe.
Fu-wook!
A pickaxe drawing a soft arc dug into the wall.
As if digging through clay, the pickaxe knocked down a wall in an instant.
“Oh my God…”
“I can’t believe such a rookie exists.”
A whimper escaped from Melena and Wolyeong’s mouths.
However, Jinhyeok, the person in charge, scratched his head with an embarrassed face.
“Ugh. dug it wrong I guess it’s not here.”
One of the labyrinth’s key actuators was exposed.
He had just entered the secretly hidden room.
“Come to think of it, I think the room over there probably had a system room that manages the types of traps…” It
wouldn’t hurt to check it once.
In this way, Jinhyeok destroyed all the traps he could see and smashed the normal roads, turning the maze into a complete mess.
Won’t you come out like this? Even like this? do you do this?
OK.
Cuckoo coo!
Suddenly all traps stopped.
At the same time, the walls started to go up at the same time.
‘This is where we play.’
Jinhyeok slowly looked at the shadow walking over the wall.
Perhaps… one of the agents sent by the boss monster is coming.
however.
“…!”
The moment he saw the agent who appeared, an earthquake occurred in Jinhyeok’s pupils.
This is because a completely unexpected person who shouldn’t be here has appeared.
