Chapter 358. New weapon (3)
“Come in.”
With Hasting’s permission, the space distorted.
cooong!
It was none other than an angel who appeared with heavy steps.
It was Kizakiel.
“It’s been a while. Senior manager.”
A higher spiritual body belonging to Eden approached Hasting’s realm.
“Whoops. How long has it been since we met… I can’t even remember.”
“Because the last time I met the manager, he was still a mid-level manager.”
“That’s right. At that time, Kizakiel-nim was also a low-level angel, not a warrior commander.”
Meeting for the first time in tens of thousands of years.
To that extent, the administrators did not make contact with the occupants inside the tower.
Because that was common sense and that was the rule.
“Mr. Panem. You should go away. I think we should have a serious talk from now on.”
“Ah, I see.”
Panem quickly disappeared out the door.
“You managed to find this place. On the surface, it’s unknown to the residents.”
“I used my own means. Please understand that this is because it is such an important matter.”
“Tell me.”
Hastings reached out and gestured for a seat.
Somewhat cold wine, cheese, and bread made with butter that can only be obtained on the 40th floor have been added.
“I think Hasting-nim is well aware of the current situation. The faction war or the possession of the crown.”
“Of course. Everything big and small in the Tower is being monitored by our Administration Office.”
“Well, what do you think of a player who has just entered the Tower and has one of the Tower’s noblest relics?”
“Of course… I think that any object should have an owner worthy of that value. Isn’t that the same position on the Eden side?”
Kizakiel’s face stiffened even more.
“That’s not true. Gabriel… told me not to touch him because he made a pact with that human.”
“No way. Is that true? To think that the great archangel of the heavens would say such an irresponsible thing…”
Hastings let out an exaggerated exclamation on purpose.
“I found it hard to believe, but it’s true. And such self-indulgence is against the law of God. If you don’t move from above, I thought I’d have to step in.”
“Sure, I understand what it means to be trivial. Then, what am I supposed to do?”
“If you tell me the location of Kang Jin-hyeok, I will take care of the rest myself.”
Kizakiel took out a spear that glowed white from the subspace.
Holy Relic ‘Joshua’s Horn’.
One of the strongest holy relics belonging to Eden that destroyed the fortress appeared.
“Only one attack can be made downstairs. But.”
okay.
One shot is enough.
Because the blow from ‘Joshua’s Horn’, which has an absolute judgment effect, was the same as Zeus’ ‘Astraphe’.
As a single-target attack, it means that it is a top-ranked blow.
“That’s… a pretty interesting suggestion.”
The corners of Hasting’s mouth twisted subtly.
Absolutely perfect timing.
Finally, the card of conversion that can put an end to the disgusting leech has arrived.
＊＊＊
Kwaaaang!
Another gateway collapsed with a huge explosion.
“Haha. Haha… Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa”
Beriel, who became a wreck, stumbled and flew up.
Seeing the smoke rising from the wings makes me feel a little sad.
That’s why you shouldn’t indulge your pride.
“Yeah. As expected, it’s amazing. I really didn’t think I could break through all of these traps. It’s amazing how great the real demon king is.”
“Whoa… This body… It’s not called the strongest in the Pandemonium for nothing. If I put my mind to it…”
Beriel’s words didn’t come to an end.
Kwaaang!
This is because the massive iron ball that appeared along with the subspace collided with the head.
“…Gagging.”
Beriel lost her balance and staggered in the air.
Now that the exit was visible, I was caught off guard.
The fact that the blow was so sudden was also the cause of being hit in the back of the head.
A body slowly disappearing.
All of his mana has been exhausted, and he is trying to return to the original demon realm.
“ah…!”
I forgot to tell you.
At the final gateway, I had forgotten that this trap existed.
Again, this is a pure mistake.
It was by no means my intention to avoid the pressure of becoming a black apostle.
Jinhyeok tried to calm his twitching lips and looked at Beriel.
“I’m really sorry that I couldn’t be with you until the end, but I will never forget what you helped me with today.”
“You… I’m sure you saw where the ball landed at the end… I thought…”
“It’s an illusion. Just in time, there were flying flies there.”
“This… a guy with no blood or tears.”
Beriel breathed heavily.
“As expected, you should become a demon. Because you have better qualities than anyone else.”
end with that.
Beriel’s alter ego was dusted and scattered.
‘As a demon…’
I think that would be fun in its own way.
If you change your 3rd job like that, you will have to be hostile to Eden forever, but the bitter taste will be the kind you will never feel if you choose another place.
But that’s not something to consider now.
Fighting between factions and the 3rd job change were enough topics to think about after a few months.
‘Let’s buy some lightly for now.’
Before going inside, I had a shopping list of things to buy.
Jinhyeok, who entered the ‘coin exchange’, quickly swept the items.
-1 kg of caramel milk powder – 1000 coins
– 10 thousand year glacial stone – 30000 coins
– 1 sachet of catnip from Otor river – 2500 coins
– 100 twin ladybugs – 10000 coins
Good.
This has everything you need.
Jinhyeok moved.
All of the 10 gateways had been broken through, and only the last one remained.
From now on, it’s a part that I have to solve on my own, not with Beriel’s help.
rattle!
The last door is open.
[Enter the 11th gateway, ‘Habelian’s Nest’.]
Whoops.
I felt the breath of something.
It has a long body of about 7 m and has white claws.
It has an appearance reminiscent of a weasel.
Havelian.
Like Pentagris, it is one of the phantom beasts that stay in the tower.
“Kyao.”
Having discovered the intruder, the Havelian roared low.
While not hiding their vigilance against those who recklessly set foot in their territory.
“Don’t worry. I didn’t come in to hurt you.”
Jinhyeok raised both hands and expressed that he had no intention of harming him.
The reason I came here is to secure the “crystal” inside the nest. It was not my intention to hit and fight with the Havelians.
Of course, it was impossible for the phantom beast to remain calm.
In the first place, no matter how docile the phantom beast was, there was no case of looking after someone who invaded my room.
“Kyaoooooo!”
When Jinhyeok refused to back down, Havellian, who was lying down, got up.
at the same time.
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
A white frosty wind began to blow.
Extreme cold properties.
Like a phantom beast that handles ice, the surrounding temperature has completely changed.
I don’t think it was a place that was so dry and hot.
come.
Jinhyeok took his stance.
Faaaaang!
Soon, sharp blades made of ice rushed in.
A total of seven from the front.
It is a frontal attack that focuses solely on speed.
[Lv18 ‘Glacial Formation’ is activated!]
Following Jinhyeok’s fingertips, white crystals arose.
What matters is the speed of operation.
In other words, how quickly and completely cancels Havelian’s ice magic.
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
14 ice stalks collided in the air.
Perfect without a single error.
“Kyao!?”
Havelian’s body trembled slightly.
The attack that had killed all the intruders in one blow had gone to nothing.
But the panic was only for a moment.
“Kyaoooooo!”
Parts!
A dazzling brilliance that forms on your lips.
Powerful mana that was incomparable to that of a moment ago was condensed.
It is a breath unique to phantom beasts, similar to a dragon’s breath.
Of course, if you hit it properly, it will only add one ice statue to the nest.
Jin-hyeok, the ‘glacial model’,
also generously poured his magic power.
timing and power. and even momentum.
Snow and ice began to drive like crazy.
‘Sword of the Sky’.
A stream of ice that came down from the sky… and
a ‘sword of the earth.’
…The ice stalks protruding from the ground collided into one.
The terrifying coldness engulfed Havellian’s entire body at once.
However, even in the ice, the activation of the breath was still continuing.
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
It wasn’t even a second that the two swords held Havelian.
This is because of the absurdly high magic attribute resistance.
‘I didn’t even expect to stop it with this in the first place.’
momentary gap.
[The ‘cold barrier’ is activated!]
An ice shield with runes engraved on it appeared in front of Jinhyeok.
Like a giant mountain rising alone in the tundra.
A wall against the breath was created.
right at that moment.
The condensed breath was released.
Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah Kwah!
I feel a huge shock.
The breath hit the top of the shield with full force.
“Kuk!”
The ‘Gap’ and ‘Adaptive’ stats wriggled like crazy.
My muscles start screaming in shock.
a little bit.
You just have to endure a little longer.
Because the breath won’t last forever.
“Keuuuuu…”
As if to prove the words.
The breath that seemed like it would never end subsided.
…now!
In an instant, Jinhyeok took out the items he had purchased from the subspace inventory.
“Kyao?”
Havelian could not hide his embarrassment again at Jinhyeok’s sudden action.
It was embarrassing to see that he didn’t take out a weapon, but all sorts of food ingredients.
[‘Caramel milk milk powder 1kg’ and ‘Millennial Glacier Stone’ are synthesized.]
The ice has begun to be ground into small white pieces.
There, the mana melted into the air by the breath began to permeate.
Then a strange scent spread out.
“Kya…oh?”
Having smelled the scent for the first time in his life, Havellian unknowingly moved his tail.
＊＊＊
‘Your mouth will be watering.’
Jinhyeok smiled.
Each of the items I have purchased now did not appeal to Havelian much individually, but when combined together, they create tremendous synergy.
In particular, should I say that if the unique magical power flowing through ‘Breath’ is added, the delicacy that the Havellian can’t live without dying is completed.
There.
Because of the ‘Different World Restaurant’ skill, a recipe optimized for feline beasts has been added.
Even a phantom beast that lives on only dew would not have the ability to withstand it.
Of course, the ‘Mentra Taming’ and ‘Sympathy’ skills also did their part to break down that impregnable vigilance.
“Kyaa, kyaoooo…”
Havelian sniffed and approached the freshly made shaved ice.
Before I knew it, the tail was moving left and right like crazy.
Perhaps a thread of vigilance still remained, but he had not fully relaxed his defensive posture.
And that last remaining glass shield…
Lick.
The moment I licked the shaved ice with my tongue, it melted like cotton candy and disappeared.
“…!!”
Havelian put his head into the shaved ice at once.
Eating crabs as if closing one’s eyes is what I’m saying after seeing this.
‘Now I can comfortably secure my decision.’
Jinhyeok’s gaze turned to the center of the nest.
A crystal containing an indescribable light.
The time has finally come to take care of the last errands in the Dunes of the Sun.
