Episode 236. Player’s World (1)
Kagagagak!
Sharp forelimbs grazed Antrad’s body.
At the same time, Antrad’s fists hit the tunnel spider’s torso.
Kwaaang!
A fight between two giants beyond imagination.
All attacks and defenses far exceeded common sense.
“Keeeee!”
Along with a rough roar, something thick spewed out of the tunnel spider’s mouth.
[The Tunnel Spider spews out Lv19 ‘digestive fluid’!] It is
a form that reduces the range to the limit, not a form that widens the range as a spray type.
But even the surprise anomaly was within Antrad’s expectations.
Not befitting his size, Antrad’s body moved quickly.
He avoided the digestive juices with the difference of a piece of paper.
“How stupid!”
He swung the sword he was holding horizontally.
Awesome!
The sword of blazing heat severed the tunnel spider’s neck in one blow.
cooong!
The huge body collapsed vertically.
After dealing with the annoying guy, I finally had time to look away.
‘By now, that human guy must have run away quite a bit.’
Wasted quite a bit of time.
In 10 minutes, you’ll be out of the fort and running away for a while.
However, no matter how far he ran away, he had no intention of letting go.
‘I don’t know about the other guy, but he’s as dangerous as that human.’
If I don’t let go of my breath here before I grow further…
‘Maybe one day I’ll come back as a huge sword.’
Antrad’s instincts continued to warn.
They said that if they miss this opportunity, they might be the ones to suffer next.
cooong!
The body slowly headed out of the fort.
Now is the time to pull the reins of the chase.
however.
“…No way, this magical power.”
It can’t be.
This makes no sense.
He hadn’t even imagined that humans would confront him instead of running away.
but.
Looking at the two players appearing in front of his eyes, he could not deny the reality forever.
I don’t know if it was a far future with much more growth….
I never thought I’d put a knife in this situation right now.
“I… I! Did I look so ridiculous!”
[Antrad activates the special battlefield Lv19 ‘Borderline of Pandemonium’!]
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
A fear that transcends cognition emanated from Antrad’s body.
at the same time.
All the land around him began to turn purple.
‘Borderline of the Demon Realm’.
It is a wide-area skill that encroaches on the ground and builds an area only for demons.
＊＊＊
Jinhyeok and Chun Yuseong pulled out their swords and received the heat head-on.
It’s a huge opening.
To the point where I couldn’t even breathe.
Cheeik!
Chun Yoo-seong’s clothes were burned because he could not bear the horror.
And the place was taken by the existing Defensive coat.
‘this.’
A light of regret passed across Jinhyeok’s face.
That’s expensive…
But in order to withstand the flames of Antrad, an artifact with a resistance option is required.
“It’s dangerous to stay here for a long time.”
“Yes. We must hurry.”
Jinhyeok held his fangs in reverse.
“By the way, can you catch up? Are you going to move quickly from now on?”
“Don’t fall behind. If you get in the way, I’ll throw you away without mercy.”
“Anyway, once you say something pretty.”
The trifling conversations exchanged before the battle began.
It’s too tension-free to share in a life-and-death situation.
that much.
is to believe
No matter how strong an enemy is, if the two deceased figures who climbed this tower join forces, they can surely defeat it.
Parts!
A cloud of frost made of ‘glacial molding’ wrapped around Cheon Yoo-seong’s body.
[Increases resistance to fire by +20%!]
Quaang!
With the sound of kicking the ground, Chun Yoo-seong’s new model disappeared.
It appeared on the right shoulder of Antrad.
“You dare to attack me first, about flying insects?”
Antrad reacted immediately.
The sword of flame moved to cut off the entire body of Cheon Yoo-seong.
But right before the sword touches Cheon Yoo-seong.
Perpuck! Fuck!
A spear made of glacial molding and the element of fire hit Antrad’s wrist bone.
It wasn’t enough to damage it, but it was enough to slightly distort its trajectory.
“Don’t forget that I am there too.”
Jinhyuk smiled brightly.
Take advantage of that momentary gap.
The herbivore of the ‘Death Soul Sword’ swept the right side of Antrad.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
Quadduk!
Small fragments were scattered.
In front of the Sword River, no matter how much the armor was surrounded by flames, it could not be a shield.
“Kuaaa!”
Antrad’s first scream of pain erupted from his mouth.
…Now.
This time, the ‘daylight’ condensed to the limit colored the field of vision white.
With the addition of the ‘Blessing of the Stars’, a flash of light that maximized divine power crossed the space.
Wow!
A huge shockwave was generated by the collision of light and flame.
Power enough to approach Hetzling’s small breath.
Thanks to this, the center of Antrad completely collapsed.
[Cheon Yoo-seong activates Lv11 ‘One Point Breakthrough’!] A
blue light connected to a single point.
Like a heavily armored knight on horseback digging into the enemy camp, Chun Yoo-seong also rushed toward his target, exuding terrifying momentum.
Slap!
The sword that pierced Antrad’s ribs reached the red ball of flame inside it.
Awesome! Quadduk!
Heart of Antrad.
It was the crystal of life made up of flame and demonic energy.
“Keugh!”
Tendons protruded from Chun Yoo-seong’s forehead.
however.
I tried to smash my heart with all my strength, but somehow the sword didn’t move on the spot.
As if to say that that far is the permitted limit.
“Did you enjoy the thought that the attack worked?”
A cold voice flowed from Antrad’s mouth.
Dangerous.
Chun Yuseong, who judged that, gave up the attack and quickly widened the distance.
Roaring!
Right away, black flames gushed up in the place where Cheon Yu-seong was.
“Where do you think you are?”
An image world made up of the boundaries of the demon realm.
Everything here is done according to Antrad’s will.
Everything he had struggled with so far was only possible because Antrad allowed it.
“I deliberately acted as if I was being victimized and dragged out the time in order to be engulfed in this world, but I didn’t expect to be fooled this easily.”
Broken fragments regenerated.
The shaking eyes also burned fiercely.
That’s how Antrad’s body was restored to the same way as when they first met.
No, it didn’t just end at the restored level.
[Antrad uses the hidden skill ‘miniaturization’.]
“I’ll admit one thing though. To be honest, your power that transcends humans was surprising. Quite a few demons must have been annihilated by the previous attack.”
The truth, not praise or exaggeration.
Antrad calmly told the truth.
“In that sense, I will take your breath away and treat you accordingly.”
Antrad’s huge body began to shrink in an instant.
10 m… 5 m… 2 m.
Miniaturization stopped only after it shrunk to almost the height of an adult man.
It should never be taken lightly because of its small size.
The ability to minimize the mana that was wasted to maintain a large body and instead store the accumulated mana in a small body.
This is the true form that Antrad only shows when killing enemies with all his might.
“Please, don’t die too easily. It’s been a while since I fought like this.”
Took!
Antrad’s body moved one beat faster than the brushing sound.
Kaaaang!
Jinhyeok reflexively swung his sword to offset it.
Rather than seeing and responding, it was closer to unconsciousness driven by countless instincts.
A red line was left where the sword passed.
It is a phenomenon that occurs when heat is fixed on the air.
“Huh? Did you react to that?”
“When someone in the middle of nowhere gets a lot of power, their attack patterns become monotonous.”
“Hmm. That one mouth is a masterpiece. Then, let’s see if it can still be relaxed even if the speed is raised a notch higher.”
Kwaaang!
As soon as he finished speaking, two red lines were drawn in the air.
The bodies of Jinhyeok and Chun Yuseong were thrown out nearly 2m.
thump!
“Kuk!”
“What kind of sword is that…”
It’s fast, but even the power is out of standard.
It was not easy even to hold on even in a 2:1 situation.
‘It’s dangerous at this rate…’
Although he was bluffing to the fullest, the limit was to endure a few sums at best.
It was then that he heard a familiar voice in Jinhyeok’s ears.
[Enough! You can start.]
Seriously…
I almost lost my neck while waiting.
The necessary conditions to fill the overwhelming gap have just been cleared.
“great job.”
This is true.
Jinhyeok muttered to Alice, who must be far away from here.
＊＊＊
“…!?”
It was the same with Antria who realized the sudden change.
“I see, you ate one shot. Was all of this trying to defeat Mine?”
“That’s right. You weren’t the only one who was wasting time.”
“How did you find the location of Mine?”
“There’s a dog that takes care of Maggie like crazy. The distance you can supply magic power is limited, so it didn’t take long to find it.”
“Hahaha! I never thought there would be a human who knows this much about demons. It’s fun. If it’s not for the appearance, it feels like dealing with a demon. That’s a very nasty guy.”
Antrad exclaimed exclamation.
But it was only for a short while.
“So what are you going to do now? Even if the source of magical power is cut off, there is still plenty of time to be in the present world. Above all, as long as this world remains, there is no chance for you to win.”
The area around the ground where Antrad was standing was dyed in a darker color.
This world is the reason why demons can transcend floors and demonstrate their strength.
“Yes. That’s not wrong.”
By the way.
“As long as the demons are gone, it’s the same for us that we can create image barriers.”
A skill that could not be used because the source of magic power had disappeared was unlocked.
The ‘battlefield selection’ skill that can dominate the space.
“It’s ridiculous. The barrier of imagery is your understanding of the tower. How well you know about this world determines the perfection of the barrier that is embodied. However, a human being who has only entered the tower for less than a year dares to Are you discussing?”
Antrad let out a laugh as if it were absurd.
but.
That laugh didn’t last long.
“I don’t think you really know… don’t talk nonsense about what this tower is like. Because you can’t even handle dust with your head.”
You have no right to say such a thing to a mid-tier demon who lives on the 40th floor.
And from now on.
I will show you what this word means.
[Select battlefield…]
In an instant, dazzling light flickered in the darkly colored world.
[…’Stop of the Tower of Loneliness’ is activated.]
The top of an unnamed place filled with stars and moon.
This is the image Jinhyeok remembers and experienced. It’s the world.
Awesome!
There was a crack in the realm of Antrad.
It could never happen.
No, it shouldn’t happen. It
didn’t make sense for the world created by demons to be interfered with by human skills.
” .”
“I know.”
Inside the shattering fragments.
This time, the magical power of Cheonyuseong slowly bloomed.
Parts…!
Again, cracks began to appear at the corners of the realm of Antrad.
[Battlefield selection ‘Swords’ haven ‘ is activated.]
Scattered Byeokgokdan and swords unfold.
A place soaked with sweat and blood shed to achieve a single purpose throughout a lifetime.
This dreary and desolate landscape is the space that created the current Sword Castle itself.
Just like that.
[Special conditions have been met.]
[The 3rd battlefield ‘Player’s World’ is activated!]
Two worlds overlapped into one.
A third concept that breaks away from the existing rules and restraints
. The image world created by this completely removed the ‘battlefield of the Demon World’ that Antrad had spread out.
The field of view has changed.
What has changed is…
not
only the view
. A soaked sigh came out.
