Chapter 363. Base maintenance (3)
Slowly!
The sound of breaking pieces of metal and breaking bones.
The cutting edge is so clean that the word art comes out.
“Finally… I got it. Magic stones… coveted scum.”
The huge monster holding a 2m long Helbird spewed out a stream of death.
It’s bigger than the Enforcer I faced earlier.
Higher Species ‘Slayer’.
If up until now it had been a lower class of the Church of the Specter, the one that appeared in front of me was a monster of a higher class than the Elder.
At first glance, it’s unremarkable.
An aura far more terrifying than that of a decent boss pressed down on his body.
It’s not because of the absolute amount of magical power… I just feel a sense of incongruity felt in the existence itself.
It must be because of the physiological aversion of not wanting to face it instinctively.
Right then.
“Damn it! What are you guys doing!”
A blonde man jumped out of the barracks and shouted.
Peydon Romania.
He was the vice master of the Olympus Guild and the person in charge of the raid’s engineering leader.
Planning this raid and clearing countless dungeons and labyrinths with high difficulty.
These were all achievements that Faydon had accumulated.
“Captain!”
“Don’t panic and deal with them in squad units as you have done so far! Let’s thoroughly destroy each one so that they don’t take advantage of numbers!”
“Ha, but, I can’t stop that goddamn monster!”
Yes.
I was able to deal with other fanatics, but there was only one.
The only exception was the Slayer who frantically wielded the Helbird at the forefront.
Even the strongest tanks couldn’t stand the blow and were being cut to pieces.
In other words.
It means that you can’t survive his attack with the armor you have now.
“I will deal with that guy.”
Fayden immediately pulled out his favorite weapon.
Sreung!
A yellow long sword and thin shield appeared.
A yellow-grade holy relic.
This is a card prepared with great care at the guild level for this raid.
‘If we catch that guy, we have a chance.’
Having made that decision, Faydon threw himself at the slayer.
fault!
fast.
How many melee dealers can move this fast?
Boooooong!
The Helbird, which weighed well over 100 kg, crossed the air.
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
The ground cracked like a tortoise shell.
‘It’s clear that the Helbird is a powerful weapon.’
Destructive power that can cut down several people at once.
Since the range is long, the fear is inevitably doubled.
However,
‘the longer the reach, the longer the term until the next attack.’
Every weapon has its pros and cons.
If you only dodge the first attack…
there will always be a gap you can penetrate.
Kagagagak!
Send shock through the shield and swing the sword to aim for the joints.
The blade that went through the side of the helberd skimmed the slayer’s groin.
“Kwaaaaaaaa!”
The slayer was frantically swinging his helberd, trying to remove the flies.
However, the slayer was always half a beat slow to catch Faydon, who was able to properly hit and run with speed.
“Don’t think of me as the other guys.”
Faydon, who immediately caught up with him, cut off the slayer’s neck.
Awesome!
The slayer’s head was severed intact.
“Ohhh!”
“All right, all right!”
“As expected, he’s the engineering chief. You took care of that monster!”
Fraud soared at once.
Now that the enemy leader has been killed, the remaining fanatics will need to be sorted out.
but.
Seeing the ensuing scene…
everyone’s faces contorted in despair.
“Dirty human bastards.”
“To offer the magic stone to him… greedy. With blood… forgive the sin.”
“Chig giggle. I’ll eat it all. Soft flesh. Eyeballs. And even the intestines.”
The slayer who came here is not one.
Twelve slayers appeared, armed with helberds and war axes and deformed scythes.
There are a whopping 12 guys who are tough to deal with.
furthermore.
It wasn’t just the slayers who appeared.
Chunk!
Cheolgureuk…
Knights wrapped in black armor all over their bodies.
It’s ‘Blood Night’.
A variant of the Death Knight with three arms, it is classified as a very difficult monster to deal with due to its bizarre pattern.
In fact, even the elite members of the Paladins had lost their lives to that Blood Knight, except for one.
“There are un…dead monsters?”
“Weren’t they just crazy fanatics?”
“It’s just how big of a force it is that higher species crawl out endlessly. Damn it. Ha…haha.”
Even the raiding party knew that this was a place where various factions were fighting.
the problem is.
That’s where the information they figured out is right there.
He quickly grasped the overall structure of the 20th floor and was engrossed only in occupying important bases, so he didn’t even pay attention to the details.
Caang!
Kakakang!
The Blood Knight drove Faydon like a storm.
top bottom bottom and sides.
The advantage of speed has completely disappeared.
There is only a response that depends on senses and predictions, not perceptions and reactions with the eyes.
“Kuh…!”
Faydon was sweating profusely, focusing only on defense.
Even in the midst of this, the number of enemies was growing exponentially.
“There’s no… no odds.”
Theresa looked with despair in her eyes at the swarms of enemies.
Thousands of fanatics brandishing black flags were pouring down on the encampment.
I haven’t been able to sleep properly for several days already, and the situation has reached its peak both mentally and physically.
In the meantime, to fight against such powerful monsters.
No matter how you look at it, there is no chance of winning.
“You have to run away.”
There is no time to even refine the ranks of engineering units.
Scattered apart, at least one more must survive.
＊＊＊
A forest on the outskirts of the empire.
A small spark flickered in the completely deserted darkness.
“…Things are going that way.”
Jinhyeok told everyone what he had heard from Orun.
“It must be a headache. Isn’t it a story that hundreds of players could be wiped out?”
Chun Yuseong let out a small sigh.
“On the 20th floor, it’s definitely the most hectic place in the tower. It looks like they really went in without prior information and with only the will.”
Elise also helped out with a word.
“That’s how it is. Originally, those who are blinded by greed want to pretend they don’t know, but the problem is
that Teresa is in the raid.
It would have been difficult for the Rosenberg family with a long history in Europe to refuse the help of the presidents and prime ministers of each country.
After all, Teresa must have joined the raid as a member of the raid.
‘This is why I said it would be difficult to go to the Empire together.’
Now I understand why.
“So, do you mean you won’t attend the imperial banquet?”
“You should ask for a delay. It’s not your job that’s urgent right now.”
Originally, I was going to do the 20th floor a little slower, but now that this has happened, I have to hurry up a little more.
Of course, rushing is not necessarily a bad thing.
Thanks to the Olympus side setting up a lot of things first, various variables arose. I’ve also found a way to use it to my advantage.
‘Because the situation depends on how you use it.’
The corners of Jinhyuk’s lips twisted subtly.
If you do well this time, besides simply clearing the 20th floor, you will be able to monopolize all the various benefits.
“So, are the three of us going? You and me, and Mr. Ellis?”
“No, if we go like this, the numbers are a bit lacking.”
No matter how outstanding the combat power of each individual was, the resource called ‘troops’ had to be supported on the 20th floor.
because.
Jinhyeok recruited some reliable helpers.
that buck
It was then that footsteps were heard.
“That… it’s hard to have a meal together. I knew you were expensive, but I didn’t expect it to be this expensive.”
Abraham scratched his head and approached.
And next to it, a nostalgic face was added.
“I heard that there is a great exploration, can I expect it?”
Pesis.
The great explorer who floats the tower also decided to join this expedition.
It is a situation where you can kill two birds with one stone as you can copy the unique ability that you couldn’t do before.
“Thank you. It must not have been an easy decision, but you readily accepted it.”
“I was impressed by your heart that you have to save your comrades.”
“To have to save the saintess of that world. It’s very romantic. Like a story in a fairy tale. Ah! So, player Kang Jin-hyeok is the hero?”
Mmm.
You seem to be misunderstanding something.
You don’t have to release it.
It must also be an illusion that Elise’s fingernails grew particularly sharp.
Maybe… I mean.
Chun Yoo-seong, who saw the two joining, exclaimed as if he was surprised.
“It’s fortunate. I was worried that you would ask to go with only the three of us, but if there are seven talented people, we can somehow match the assortment.”
seven?
not five?
“What does that mean?”
“I, too, have contacted people I trust. Originally, it was for a purpose other than the 20th floor, but saving Teresa would come first.”
At the same time as Chun Yoo-seong finished speaking, new characters appeared from the grass on the other side.
“I came here in a hurry because Gongja Cheon said he really wanted to meet me. Although it’s a little sad that I didn’t call because I wanted to see this master after a long time.”
“Still, that disciple seeks help from the teacher. I was very unaware of it. It’s great. If you don’t call, you’ll be ready to come when you enter the coffin?”
It is a posthumous death and darkness.
Although the Empire and Murim had signed a peace treaty, it was unusual for two super-class masters from each faction to cross over to the Empire.
“Master…?”
“Come on. How have you been?”
Dark Emperor laughed and approached.
“I’ve been well. Is it safe with Master?”
“Peace is a piece of shit! I thought I was dying of a moth because all the guys I could knock on were gone. Yes. There are tens of thousands of people to destroy? Where should I start sweeping them away?”
“Yeah, that’s the case, but since we have only a few people, we have to approach it a bit strategically. You don’t have to turn them all into enemies.”
Seeing that the stage gun Lu Bu also noticed, they fought between Liu Bei and Cao Cao. However
, Dark Emperor did more than that, never less.
Of course.
What use will it be?”
That confidence is backed by overwhelming force.
A one-man army.
Just being yourself is enough
. Dark Emperor declared
.
I started to notice it for no reason to be alone without doing anything
. Actually, I also had something prepared. Seriously.”
Elise hurriedly put magic into the necklace she was wearing.
Then,
the space was torn like a crescent moon…
Tsutsut!
With smoke, silver-haired vampires appeared.
Ophelia and Belus headed towards Elise. ” Meet
the head of Ataraxia” ”
Meet the head of Ataraxia
.
”
Did he feel the authority and dignity as the head of a family?
It seemed that he himself was highly exalted by being treated like a queen.
‘….’
Jinhyeok looked at the people gathered with strange eyes.
Lonely, alone, he faced all the difficulties. There are no more times when you had to get through it.
Now, there is always someone by your side.
“From now on, I will go to the 20th floor.”
Jinhyeok stood at the forefront.
