Episode 184. Union of two tiers (2)
A compact body of 1m.
A dwarf race with a delicate-looking body.
It was ‘Kaman’, a low-level manager whom he met at ‘The Masquerade’.
I know he was demoted after being smashed by senior manager Hastings for taking the Chinese side for nothing, but I never thought
this guy would appear here.
‘It’s fun.’
It was roughly predictable how things would turn out.
Since my career as a manager has been blocked, I’d rather use this opportunity to join hands with the monsters on the 8th and 9th floors and try to get a share… I guess that means something like this.
“nice to see you. Player Unknown.”
Kaman was the first to speak.
It’s a tone that doesn’t feel hostility.
‘Well, he saw me without a mask at the ballroom.’
If I had seen the bare face under the mask, magic would have flowed, not conversation, but at least not right now.
“Do you know me well?”
“Whoop whoop. How can you not recognize the ranker that stands out among the players? Of course, I have been researching that much.”
“I don’t know what to do with you saying that. Is that why you represent the monsters on the ninth floor? Do you want to meet me?”
“you’re right. Hmm. What should I do? Roughly, please think of this as coming from the intention of getting the best results for each other so that things don’t get too messy.”
Sounds like the best outcome.
Making subtle threats has not changed at all from the prom.
But does he know?
Before and now.
The fact that it will always be you who gets smashed while doing clumsy tricks.
“Let’s stop small talk and tell us why you’re here. If you came as an agent, doesn’t that mean you have something to offer?”
“You don’t like editorials. great. I have only one suggestion. Don’t make a fuss with your pickaxe anymore, and follow me calmly.”
“They quietly follow me… It’s a proposal that doesn’t appeal to me very much.”
“Isn’t your goal also to kill the boss in charge of the stairs? Wherever I go, they are waiting. More than anything.”
A mischievous smile crept across Kaman’s lips.
at the same time.
“This is not an invitation or request.”
Kaman snapped his index finger and thumb.
Then a huge screen appeared in front of me.
“Quaaaaaagh!”
“Aagh!”
“Buy and save me!”
“Please help me… anyone please!”
The sight of monsters executing humans in various ways unfolded.
I could see the players who had entered the maze and disappeared, as well as the players of Friedman and Lockheed Guild who had tried to get out of the maze earlier.
A lizardman who wields a sword against a naked man.
There was also a goblin who enjoyed throwing daggers at a woman tied to a pole.
In the amphitheater, a large number of people and monsters were released at once, and the person who survived the longest was matched.
Blood and screams… and life and death go hand in hand.
Yes.
That place was hell.
“You…”
Jinhyuk’s voice sank coldly.
“Whoop whoop. Don’t try to kill me too much. My position is not so low that I dare to intimidate humans.”
“How dare you tease my master with your tongue! I will rip out that whole tongue!”
Wol-yeong stepped forward, spraying a terrifying life.
An insult to Jinhyeok is an insult to Darkwang.
I didn’t know Kaman’s true identity, but I intended to cut down whatever it was.
“wait.”
“Ha, but lord!”
“Wait. Even if you don’t step out, I’ll pluck that guy’s tongue out myself.”
Jinhyeok took a step forward.
Wolyeong was taken aback by the ferocious energy that was incomparable to the previous ones and stepped back.
Melena also swallowed dry saliva and took a backward step.
I’ve known Jinhyeok for a long time, but this was the first time I’d seen him so angry.
Jerrit! Jerrit! Jerrit!
Magical power transmitted through the skin.
Just being next to him makes me feel sick to my stomach.
“Hahaha! This is brutal. He is indeed one of the most outstanding candidates among humans. To be honest, it’s a little scary.”
“okay. keep killing me Let’s see how long you can do that.”
Pats Cheats…!
When the ‘nails that cover the moon’ were manifested, black nails made of steel appeared on Jinhyeok’s hand.
“You think well. If you attack me, you’ll also need a lot more time to get there. Of course, the chance to save the people will also disappear.”
Jinhyeok’s hand stopped at Kaman’s words.
If you don’t do what you’re told to do, the one who loses is determined.
You will waste time going all the way to the boss if you use guest skills here.
Besides, if it were discovered that the people in captivity had been abandoned, it would take an indelible blow to their image.
dilemma.
Neither of them has anything to do with it.
Jinhyeok gritted his molars.
at last.
“i get it. Let me follow you.”
“It is a wise decision.”
Kaman smiled brightly, as if he knew that.
And right at that moment.
“Did you know how to say…?”
Jinhyuk quickly reached out and grabbed Kaman’s neck.
Kwadeuk!
The sound of something breaking was heard due to the tremendous gripping force.
Kaman also reflexively opened his shield, but that alone was not enough.
“Ke-ke-hek! What now…”
“Can’t you understand it with words? Would you have told him to shut up?”
Booooooo…!
…quaaang!
Jinhyeok raised his hand high while holding the kaman, then slammed it on the ground.
The floor was shattered in one blow.
“Aagh!”
A scream of pain escaped Kaman’s mouth.
To the pain that I had no choice but to say was unfamiliar, to the pain I had never felt before. Kaman yelled at his throat to burst.
It’s a natural story.
Who would dare to lay their hands on the Administrator’s body?
One of the reasons why the fight ended unilaterally was that he returned the relic only for managers because he was on probation.
The biggest reason was, of course, carelessness stemming from pride.
“Even after doing this…”
“Even after doing this, I have lived well. Wouldn’t you rather be in a position to worry about others?”
Jinhyeok relentlessly repeated the action he had made earlier.
Kaman’s body wanted to soar into the sky, but in an instant, he fell to the ground.
Wow!
Blood gushed out of his nose and mouth like a fountain.
“Stop that. That’s okay!”
Kwaaang!
“That… Cool! Kuck!”
bang! bang! Quaang!
“Turn it off…”
A limp body and trembling arms.
There are no more dignified and relaxed managers.
There’s just one frightened mouse.
But the horror didn’t end there.
We are only just entering the beginning stage.
[Inherited ability ‘Blessing of the Stars’ is activated.]
Starlight permeated Kaman’s body.
[The target’s wounds begin to heal at a slow rate.]
[It is difficult to fully heal the wounds due to the low level of understanding of the unique ability.] The
broken nose is back in place.
The blood that had been torn and spilled all over the place had subsided.
When I think of the moment ago when I was completely raging, it was almost as if I had recovered.
“This is…”
Despair crept into Kaman’s eyes.
Originally, the holy light that heals wounds couldn’t feel so cursed at this moment.
“ruler. We have to start over.”
“Wait a minute! I’ll tell you. I will tell you!”
“Not yet. Considering what I didn’t say when I gave it a chance, I’m going to run at least one more cycle. If there’s anything you want to say, say it right after you’re done.”
Again, merciless violence followed.
Wow!
“Keuouh!”
without the slightest mercy. It was a brutal beating.
He gave a bad first impression at the masquerade ballroom.
In particular, killing players for entertainment and threatening them as an excuse was the worst move from Kaman’s point of view.
puck! Fuck!
After one hellish minute passed, Kaman was given a second chance.
I didn’t even dare to make eye contact.
Jinhyeok whispered into Kaman’s ear, who had completely curled up his tail.
“Open the gate to them. ah. By the way, you’d better think seriously before answering. or not If the word “impossible” comes out, that will be your last will.”
By the way, this is not a joke.
Although annoying, I was expecting a few places where a large army could be gathered.
It just takes a little bit more time. I was able to find it somehow.
“That… if you say that. Will you save me… or will you save me?”
“Fortunately, my greatest concern is not your life. So, I can keep you alive by watching what you do.”
“Crab gate… I will open it. right now.”
Kaman nodded frantically and immediately opened the gate.
Whoa!
A manager-only gate appeared with dazzling brilliance.
I could feel the familiar magical energy beyond the shimmering surface.
It seems that there are still more people alive than dead.
‘I must hurry.’
Time is running out.
Jinhyeok threw Kaman away and entered the gate.
“Everyone in formation, escort the lord!”
“ha. It feels more and more twisted…”
And then Wolyeong and Melena followed.
finally.
“Let’s go.”
“huh!”
“You should listen to your master.”
The spirit beasts abandoned the wagon and moved often.
＊＊＊
When my vision, which had been darkened, became brighter, the scenery around me completely changed.
A huge space that can fit 10 World Cup stadiums.
The number of monsters filled inside was so numerous that it was difficult to grasp with the naked eye.
ridge! ridge! ridge! ridge!
The harsh sound of drums pierced my eardrums.
thick and
The thick smell of blood also stimulated the sense of smell.
This is the deep part of the maze. It is the place where the union of the two tiers gathers.
“There’s a lot more dirty…”
Melena gave off a trembling look.
Wolyeong’s expression hardened as well.
“There are quite a lot of them. If you don’t secure it from the retreat, it may be difficult to escape if you are surrounded.”
“Wolyoung.”
Jinhyuk quietly opened his mouth.
“yes. Lord.”
“Who did I say I was?”
“He is the disciple of Dark Hwang, who is the Kwon Cheonjiryong, and the cornerstone for the revival of the Heavenly Demon Church.”
“But what do you think a mere monster can do to me?”
‘Only’.
Even if it was the 20th floor giant Moorim, who could speak so lightly against such a large number of medium-sized monsters?
Even the guys here are reinforced with red patterns and are even protected by the boss monster?
“Wolyoung.”
Jinhyeok opened his mouth again.
“Yes… Yes!”
“I’ll tell you first and last.”
It’s not my style to say this twice.
“No matter what happens. Be sure to trust me and follow me. Then everyone can get out alive.”
“If it’s all of us… are you talking about us?”
“okay. I won’t let anyone die as long as I’m in front of them.”
From the time I was born until now, I have walked the path of life.
Something that can be used as a sword and then thrown away at any time.
That was the fate Moorim’s memorization had to live.
Of course, in this crisis situation, it means that they have to perform their duties, from being used for the owner to dying for the owner.
however.
‘what. this person is.’
pounding! Throb! Throb!
Wolyeong’s heart beat little by little.
To the life that was cold and mechanically repeated.
For the first time, a forgotten ironclad moved.
“Answer?”
“…the honorable name.”
All that remains is to follow.
