Chapter 355. Crown of defeat (3)
“This, how can it be…”
“It’s ridiculous.”
“The Hound Captain was beaten? By a kid like that?”
A startled exclamation burst from the mouths of the Old Guards, who were engaged in fierce battles.
It had to be.
While handling countless atrocious missions so far…
it was Hound who always led the team in front of him.
It is the captain who has handled the job more perfectly than anyone else, befitting the nickname of Nyarlathotep’s hound.
however.
Why?
…Are you saying that the ranker who was dealing with mythical heroes was defeated by a mediocre player?
You already know why.
I just didn’t want to admit it.
One-hit death arrow.
The blow that could not be offset even after activating the weapon-destroying ability was far beyond the standard.
It feels like watching the primeval beings move directly.
It was also to the point of giving goosebumps that all the traps were set up using the crown.
On the other hand.
Jinhyeok’s performance boosted the morale of the late Inmul Corporation.
“It’s barely worth trying.”
Chun Yuseong sighed lightly.
Thanks to Sally’s fierce push, a dangerous situation ensued.
The time for a counterattack has finally arrived.
Teresa and Uasis also prepared for an attack with a more comfortable face.
The strength that was not in the belief that Jin-hyeok would soon join them naturally sprung up.
“Hmm. Well, that’s quite right. Oh, no. Of course, if it’s my contractor, that’s it. That’s right.”
Alice also muttered something.
He didn’t say the right words, but his face was full of pride and pride.
“Mooogiii!”
“As expected, he’s not like our demons… he’s like an owner full of skills.”
“This is why the spirits have to line up well.
“If I did, I would have been tied upside down to a pole and eaten nothing but mint chocolate for 365 days.”
Sweet Potato and Spirit Beasts also started to push the Beasts at once with momentum.
“Keeeee!”
“Koooooo!”
The monsters whose whole bodies were full of holes collapsed one by one.
When Sally, who was giving direct orders, panics over Hound’s defeat. The entire system was thrown into chaos.
“This fight. We win.”
Frey quickly swung two short spears.
The window moved in a dizzying manner along with the blue hair.
Kwaaang!
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
Each one was a turning point aimed at a vital point.
“…Kuh!”
Roy Fang hesitated and took a step back.
The attribute magic on his fist shook even slightly.
balance.
It started to crumble.
＊＊＊
Cooung.
The Hound’s knees touched the floor.
The extreme pain, which had already exceeded its limits, paralyzed even reason.
“Turn it off…”
I barely let out a groan.
Now even the screams don’t come out properly.
I never imagined it would be so painful.
“Kill… all… oh.”
Words that should never have come out of the Hound’s mouth came out.
I had learned how to respond to torture a long time ago, but the sensation that now engulfed my whole body was nothing compared to what I had experienced before.
Because this…
was the crown’s curse to punish the undeserving.
“I’m not the kind of person who enjoys seeing other people suffer, sorry, but not yet.”
Jinhyuk shrugged.
copy ability.
Because there was still one last thing to do.
“But, there is a way. Just solve one thing and I’ll make it easier for you.”
“What… is it?”
Anything can be done to end this pain.
It seemed that he could even sell his soul.
“That greatsword. Hand it over.”
A favorite weapon possessed by the 4th rank Old Guard.
This would undoubtedly satisfy the requirements for copying abilities.
“…my sword…?”
The Hound was momentarily troubled.
But it was only for a short while.
“Okay… OK. I’ll pass it. I’ll… I’ll pass it please. Hurry up and finish it.”
[The transfer of ownership of the weapon has been completed.]
[You have acquired the great sword ‘Mortal Executioner’!
]
Jinhyeok lightly swung his sword with one hand.
indeed. Despite being over 2m long, the weight was barely felt.
It must have been engraved with dozens of ‘engravings’ written in runes in the ultra-lightweight magic.
If this is it…
[The Mortal Executioner’s Sword has been sacrificed.]
[The requirements that exceed the allowable limit have been met!]
[Successfully copied abilities from ‘Hound’!]
[Ring of Reversal]
Description: An ability to destroy a target by receiving the protection of ancient runes. Depending on the mastery, the target can range from a creature to a holy relic. Also, if you have the Wheel of Reversal, your strength stat will increase by +20.
[Copied abilities are stored in ‘Memory of the World’.]
As expected!
Sacrificing a weapon of a much higher rank than fangs has an effect.
Thanks to exceeding the permissible limit, I finally got my own spear.
“Keep your promise…”
“Ah…”
Yes. I promised you.
I promise to put an end to this pain if I hand over my weapon.
Even if he didn’t beg so much, he had no intention of letting such a big thing be eaten by the crown.
Even if the Hall of Fame was second, I couldn’t give up the experience beyond imagination.
Jinhyeok took another arrow to his molar.
And just like that, the protest was liberated.
Fuck!
The hound’s body fell backwards with a clear destructive sound.
Since the middle of the forehead was pierced through, you won’t feel any more pain.
as if to prove it.
Tring!
[The level has risen.]
[The level has risen.]
[The level…]
[… has risen.]
Countless status windows appeared.
10 levels.
The fierce battle finally came to an end.
‘The other guys are also running away with their tails.’
Jinhyuk’s gaze turned to the side.
Having lost their leader, Blacklock and Royfang Shelly are seen quickly fleeing.
You can do it if you want to chase it, but the first target is not them.
‘Copying the ability doesn’t matter since we’ll meet again anyway.’
Nyarlathotep or Hastings who learned about this will move again.
So, you just have to be comfortable with this one.
[Inherent abilities ‘Blessing of the Stars’ and ‘Mandala’ are activated!]
Parts…
A warm energy permeated his entire body.
In order not to make the mistake the Hound had made, it was necessary to completely restore the lost physical strength and magic power.
In addition, when the ‘Jin Tae-cheong Hwarang Simbeop’ was applied, the mana began to fill up very quickly.
A gap that has been created for a while.
Jinhyeok activated his personal status window.

——————————————————
Jinhyeok slightly clenched his fist while looking at the slightly changed status window.
On top of the category of unique ability…
a new category called ‘unique vocal spear’ has been created.
A name feast that can only be used by those who are chosen among the residents.
Even those deadly abilities began to be recorded in the Infinite Library.
‘Now it’s time to do some stat distribution.’
A whopping 10 levels.
It’s obvious, but the level of experience given like a heavyweight is also different.
After all, it was the same as taking care of one of the heroes belonging to the giant myth.
‘Even if I don’t get full recognition for my public value because of the crown of defeat, this is an achievement that exceeds my expectations.’
The problem is…
where to distribute the stats.
A void created by the loss of fangs.
In order to obtain the weapon in the dunes of the sun, there is no choice but to take some risks.
The worry didn’t last long.
[Agility increases from 91 to 121!]
All 30 points were invested in agility.
Sabak…
The feeling of stepping on the sand has definitely changed.
Has your body become as light as a feather?
It feels worthwhile to pour so many points into it.
Exactly how much has changed will be seen in a moment.
Jinhyeok checked his physical condition.
‘good.’
Now, magic and stamina have returned to some extent.
Finally, from the fight between Shub Niguras and the Heavenly Demon. up to today.
The time has come to see the results of a long struggle.
slowly.
His fingertips went to the black crown on the sand.
[The owner of the crown of defeat has been determined!]
[The owner is player Kang Jin-hyeok!]
[The higher powers are starting to notice you.]
[The crown of defeat]
Difficulty to obtain: Unmeasurable Durability
: Unbreakable under any circumstances not.
All stats you have: +30
Critical Hit Chance: 30%
Skill level increases by +3 steps when facing a god.
You will be able to use the previous owner’s unique ability up to its polarity. (Time limit: 3 minutes) The
detailed stats of the crown will vary depending on the past owners.
If you played the Tower of Trials 10 times, it means that the abilities of the crown are also different.
In that sense.
This crown has better specifications than any other crown I have ever seen.
Amazing, Great.
“Kyaa!”
Jinhyeok couldn’t stand the shout.
＊＊＊
The 43rd floor of the Tower of Trials.
The endlessly rising mountains and the clouds that hung around them transcended the scenery that existed in this world.
Olympus.
It is the home of a huge force that has recently been actively expanding its power.
and.
thump… tadak.
Several men and women stood around a bonfire in the center of the temple.
They are the gods of Olympus.
“The owner of the Crown of Paedo has been decided.”
An old man with a long black beard opened his mouth.
‘The owner of the crown has been decided.’ In fact, the atmosphere around them became very uproarious.
“Has a player who’s only been in the Tower 2 years ever gotten a crown?”
“No, this is the first time since we entered the tower.”
“I heard that it was the angels on the Eden side 7,000 years ago who got the crown the fastest, but I know it took more than 10 years.”
shortest period ever.
It was an unbelievable result considering that it is not easy to even find out the position of the crown normally.
Because to them, the players currently climbing were just toddlers taking their first steps.
“…It’s okay. Even if a human without any insignificant power gets the crown. I won’t be able to keep it for long.”
A tall man sitting in the seat of honor opened his mouth.
Zeus.
He was the highest level god who led the gods of Olympus.
The muffled voice at Zeus’s words disappeared in an instant.
“Hermes.”
“Yes. Father.”
“Attach a messenger to Kang Jin-hyeok. Don’t let him notice. Be as careful as possible.”
“Is it okay to just watch?”
“Okay. Now that the other factions have smelled it, they’ll try to take the crown from him. We’ll watch them bite each other and intervene last.”
There is no need to set foot in a place where wild beasts frequent.
when you’re exhausted and exhausted. Decorating the end would be the most efficient.
Right then.
Quaang!
with a roar. A new figure appeared in the temple.
A warrior fully armed with golden armor. It is Ares, the god of war.
“All preparations are complete. Please give me an order.”
Ares, who jumped up from the bottom of the mountain at once, bowed his head.
“The soldiers and their ‘weapons’ too?”
“Yes. Perfect. Let’s see for yourself.”
“Hmm.”
Zeus slowly rose and looked down at Olympus.
A huge number of large armies were gathered on the ground.
Elite troops armed with full body armor are waiting for the orders of the gods to be given.
“Okay. From now on, I’m going to wipe out all the Northern Europeans and make the floors they rule ours.”
The war has begun.
