Episode 293. The time to fade
is puffer puffer puck!
[Critical has been activated!]
Blood spurted from Mrcielio’s forehead at the shooting that continued like a storm.
It was thanks to the ‘ultra-precision shooting’ effect that was activated by making a series of accurate hits in the same spot.
“Kuaaa!”
Mrcielio screamed in rage.
The pain was also painful, but he never imagined that he would be humiliated in this way.
This is an insult to the commander who commanded numerous colonies as the queen’s limb.
“So why are you hiding behind the bugs? Why are you flying around with your wings spread out?
Jinhyuk clicked his tongue.
Did you say that fools and smoke like high places?
That’s exactly what I’m saying about this.
“Human bastard… I won’t let you go!”
[Mrcielio uses ‘yellow dust’!]
Partz…
Yellow powder with thick particles scattered as the butterfly flapped its wings.
It is a mysterious powder that infuses intelligence into allies, but it is a devilish powder that makes enemies lose their reason and go crazy.
The dust spread widely and began to surround Jinhyeok.
“It’s a powder full of hallucinogens. After thoroughly training you with this powder, I’ll play with it every night. No matter how much you beg for it, it won’t be easily given, so you can expect it. Fufu.”
Mmm. That’s a pretty dangerous statement.
Besides…
“It’s impossible at that slow speed.”
No matter how powerful the attack is, it’s enough to dodge it.
Jinhyeok moved his body lightly and got out of the powder.
OK.
“Who said that? I’m slow?”
Boooooong!
The speed of the flying dust increased by one level.
It seemed that there was no room for them to escape by completely blocking the retreat route and narrowing the encirclement.
But right before the powder touches Jinhyeok’s body.
Jinhyeok opened fire like a storm at the flying powder.
Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah!
“What the hell are you trying to do with that gun? No way, you’re going to shoot all that many things? No matter how stupid you are, you’d do something like that… Huh huh? Huh? Ohh?”
As Mrcielio was speaking, a strange sound gradually came out of his voice.
No matter how large the particles of dust are, the basic form is powder.
But to offset all of that?
What kind of monster is that ridiculous…
“Uh…uh…uh.”
Mrcielio pursed his lips.
“I told you. Is it slow?”
“Kwaaaaagh! Kill! What are they doing. Kill!”
“Keeeeeee!”
“Keeck!”
Even the insects that received the order joined in.
A large centipede burrowed into the sand and disappeared from sight. Dozens of wasps rushed in with stingers.
The rhinoceros beetle and various man-eating plants have also built a dense wall and put pressure on it.
“The quality doesn’t work, so push the quantity… It’s a bug-like way of thinking.”
chump chump chump!
The plain sword spread out in all directions, scattering blades on the blade.
A sword technique developed independently when climbing the tower in the past.
No, it’s too shabby to say it’s a swordsman because there’s no herbivore.
This was just… it was just an optimized motion to handle the plain sword comfortably and efficiently.
It would be more accurate to say that it is more like a dance where the top priority is to annoy the other person.
but.
I don’t know anything else, but the one thing that digs into a sore spot was excellent.
[The unique ability ‘Grave of Swords’ is unlocked!]
The power was beyond imagination when the strength was added.
“Keeeee!”
“Kuaa!”
Fragments of worms that had been cut into pieces lay on the floor.
Tsut!
Zwik!
The sword dug into the sand as if it were alive.
at the same time.
“Goooooo!”
“Kwaaa!”
The centipedes that were hiding in the sand and looking for a gap came out.
Centipedes twisting their bodies wildly while being pierced by plainclothes swords.
Quadduk!
Jinhyeok swung his sword once more, and the screams disappeared.
“Why don’t you fight with the queen’s precious subordinate instead of putting them all in the limbs? Crooked Tinkerbell.”
“Crash, crooked Tinkerbell?”
“There’s a fairy from our world’s fairy tale. After you get hit by a car once… well, I’ll do it again. Once in a 10-ton truck… I can’t do it. If I get hit 1 or 10 times, I think I’ll look like him.” You can see it.”
I tried to wrap it as kindly as possible, fearing that it would hurt me if I said it openly.
To be honest, we have nothing in common other than gender.
“You dare to make fun of this body, a noble of the great Insect Tribe?
[Mrcielio attempts ‘cocoonization’!]
[All wounds are healed.]
[Defense increases by 3800% when the cocoon completely covers the body.] A
white thread surrounds the body of the huge butterfly. started to wake up
Cocooning.
It is the ability to reflect the characteristics of an insect as it grows as it undergoes repeated metamorphosis.
“The moment you see my true self will be your last… Huh?”
however.
Mrcielio, who was speaking, tilted his head.
It’s because I couldn’t see the opponent who was supposed to listen.
The antennae were sweet.
The senses of the whole body moved to find the enemy.
It appeared above the void.
To be precise, it was above Mrcielio’s head.
Thanks to the overlapping of ‘Realm of Wind’ and ‘Gemma Cheonryungbo’, it is possible to show movements that approach almost short-distance spatial movement.
Took.
Landing on top of the cocoon, Jinhyeok aimed the gun at Mrcielio’s head.
“Who’s been waiting for you?”
This isn’t some kind of 12-year-old anime.
I have no intention of applauding or clapping until the transformation is over.
“Now, wait.”
Mrcielio hurriedly shouted, but it was after red magic had already formed on the tip of the gun.
If ‘Kochihwa’ is fully displayed, you can’t use your hands.
Right before that, movement is restricted and loopholes are completely exposed.
In terms of time, it’s just a few seconds.
This is the best time to kill the butterfly guy.
“Don’t be too unfair. There are no monsters that won’t fall for my provocation.”
“Go to sleep…!”
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
The red magic bullet shattered the outer shell and pierced the brain inside.
[The level has risen!]
[The level has risen!]
[You have obtained Mrcielio’s wings (material)]
[You have obtained 500mg of ‘yellow dust’.]
“Kieeh!”
“Kiyi!”
It was then that the bugs started running amok.
Originally, they would have to get out of control as soon as they lose their commander and bite each other or scatter.
But the fact that he’s exhibiting this kind of strange behavior is…
kuku kuk kuku!
Vibrations felt along the ground.
“It’s saved me the trouble of having to go there on purpose.”
It means that the boss on the 16th floor, who lost his right arm in vain, moved himself.
Kwaaang!
As the ground turned over, a huge insect with an ink-colored coat popped out.
About 5 m in size.
The appearance is similar to the Hercules beetle, but it was different from the existing bugs.
This guy is the queen.
This is the highlight of this raid.
“My children…”
The queen scanned the bodies scattered on the floor.
There was futility, anger, and emotions beyond that.
“If you touch the planting of the being above you, you will die gracefully. Even if you come all the way here and make a fuss, your destiny will not change.”
“…Huh. You mean you know what’s going on outside the tower?”
“Don’t underestimate the being who controls a floor. He knows far more than the meager knowledge and information you know.”
The Queen’s gaze turned to Jinhyeok.
“Looks like you’re thinking of killing me and getting an artifact to fight them, but it’s futile. While you spend a few hours here, the thought entities outside the tower will burn your world to ashes.”
“Hey. You calculated that far. You’re a much smarter bug than I thought.”
Jinhyeok let out a laugh.
But do you know what?
“Even if it’s not me, it doesn’t mean that there aren’t talented people in this world.”
I don’t know if Shub-Nigurath comes directly.
There are people who can deal with the level of the thought body below it.
In order to prepare for such a situation, it is said that I have placed at least a plan B card.
and.
“Why do you think I’ll be here for hours?”
[‘Memory of the World’ is activated.]
Jinhyeok waved his hand into the air.
Then, behind his back, a library where numerous skills were stored appeared.
[Trait ‘Sanctuary of the Sun’ is activated!]
Charlereure!
A bookshelf that goes over.
The stage of the Egyptian godhead was recreated, and the world of the queen who led the colony disappeared.
A space with a desert, a sphinx, and a giant pyramid.
A golden beam of light became a pillar supporting the barrier of the sanctuary in the sky.
“Hey, is this…?”
A strangeness seeped into the queen’s eyes.
‘Daylight’ was manifested in the gun held in his left hand.
The sword in his right hand was imbued with ‘Blood Magic’.
You don’t even have to drag it out for hours.
“I’ll finish it in three minutes.”
The smile disappeared from Jinhyuk’s face.
＊＊＊
After the gates were opened, large cities around the world were plunged into darkness.
Burned down buildings and abandoned cars.
A city center completely deserted.
In a scene reminiscent of an apocalypse. Survivors who had not yet been able to evacuate from this hell were trembling and hiding.
“Mom, I’m scared…”
The whining of a child echoed through the underground parking lot.
“Hey, if you stay here, you won’t find it, right?”
The woman who appeared to be the child’s mother cautiously opened her mouth.
“It’s surrounded by flames that interfere with magic detection, so you won’t find out at all.”
“The chess pieces are also set up as bait. It will be impossible to fight back, but it will be enough to buy us time until we run away,” Min Jeong-woo and Lee Yu-ri
reassured the people.
It was only after rationing the water and food they had that they had a chance to take a breather.
“Whoa. I said that, but it’s really embarrassing. Aren’t we completely isolated?”
“Heh heh. What can I do?
“Gyeonggam always says things that are comfortable inside. I’m not joking, if that person Kang Jin-hyeok doesn’t come quickly, we might all die.”
“Hmm. From what I see, it’s like inviting a tiger to chase a wolf.”
“The goat outside is a wolf and the tiger is Kang Jin-hyeok, right?”
“Can’t it be the other way around?”
“that… That’s right.”
The two of them shuddered as they recalled the bad relationship that started when they met Jinhyeok at the National Museum of Korea.
In particular, Lee Yu-ri had memories of playing work songs and staying up all night making chess pieces.
Do you know me personally?”
Gi-tae Kim of the Fighting Fathers Guild responded to Jin-hyeok’s name.
He also came to Daejeon as an advance party and was isolated here.
“Huh? Do you know him too?”
“Yes. We worked together a few times.”
“I got into trouble from the start because of that damn bastard. We could have started really well. Ha… I still get headaches when I think of that time.
” I was properly fooled.”
“The national treasure… In fact, I have been beaten by him several times too. Haha.”
A strange consensus was formed between the three of them.
It was mostly a consensus with a bitter taste. But
still.
One thing is certain.
“They will definitely come.”
“Isn’t it obvious? Even if that friend works on people, he doesn’t have a bad nature.”
“That’s right. Player Kang Jin-hyeok will pay for something.”
The three believed that
Jin-hyeok would never abandon people.
And.
No matter how hellish the current situation is, if Jin-hyeok comes, it will be different.
But right away It was then.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
A loud impact and a roaring sound pierced my eardrums.
Dust fell from the ceiling.
“What…! Ms. Lee Yu-ri, could it be these guys?”
“Che, chess… Damn it. It’s not just one guy. Not only the bait but also the chess pieces placed in the retreat have all been destroyed!”
Yu-ri shouted with a pale face.
