Chapter 662. Shadow seedlings without owners (3)
Tower of Trials 50th floor.
In the palace of Azathoth, located at the top of the tower, the primeval beings were gathered.
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
A tremendous sense of intimidation flowed out just by having absolutes gathered in one place. An ordinary person would have lost their reason and gone mad as soon as they encountered it.
but.
I didn’t feel the slightest tension in the man standing leisurely in front of him.
“Unknown, whom I boasted so much about, finally died. If I borrowed your expression, I think you said that you are the strongest ranker that cannot be defeated.”
Nyarlathotep chuckled.
“I wasn’t saying anything wrong. Believe it or not, he was once stronger than anyone here.”
If Colonel Timo had been able to use his 100% ability… the result could have been a little different.
It may have done more damage or succeeded in eliminating some of its members. No matter what anyone says, it was data that I remembered conquering the tower back when it was a game.
The man brooded over the past and made a strange expression.
He also sat down in a chair for a while and added his words.
“But Unknown handling everyone is not what I wanted.”
It was just a foundation for further growth of the existence of Kang Jin-hyuk.
Jinhyeok is perfect. You have to come up to the top in the best condition.
Only then.
You will be able to win a perfect victory without any excuses. And it will put an end to the long wait.
“I’ve been looking forward to fighting him for a very long time. prepared meticulously. I ran countless simulations.”
A free and uninteresting day. The only thing that could make him forget that was Jinhyeok. Very tasty ripe fruit. It felt like the boredom that was piled up in my body melted away just by imagining eating it.
The man looked at Nyarlathotep.
“Well, it’s true that I misjudged a lot in the last fight and failed… This time, I’ll take a step back so you guys can do whatever you want. From your point of view, losing the Necronomicon would be a matter directly related to survival.”
“Surprisingly. Didn’t you rather hate the loss of Kang Jin-hyeok than you would die?”
“that’s right. But I don’t think that tough deceased person will die easily.”
“That means… it makes me feel like he’s one level above us.”
An ominous energy emanated from Nyarlathotep’s staff.
Slowly…
the ground was stained black.
The man raised both hands up in a gesture of exaggerated surprise.
“woah. to calm down Don’t you know that fighting with you and me is both a loss to each other? I’m not ignoring it, I’m just saying it out of a sense of old age.” “Don’t worry about that part. I’ve come up with a way to wipe out him and the canyon itself.”
Took chuck…
“Hmm.”
“Kick Kick!”
“…”
Three men and women appeared behind Nyarlathotep.
After the old guards disappeared, a new bodyguard was summoned.
If a human named Kang Jin-hyeok made a splendid performance in this tower…
…these are the beings who reached the peak in another dimension and returned.
“Hoo. Bringing returnees to the 50th floor… have you already forgotten what happened when the ancient hermits, including the Frost Spirit, came to this floor?”
“You don’t have to worry. We take care of that part.”
“It must have been a presumptuous meddling. I’m sure they can make an interesting variable.”
The man turned around without regret.
“Are you planning to go already?”
“I was supposed to meet someone. If I kept you waiting for a long time, I was afraid I would hear a bitter voice.”
*
Jerking around.
A man who had just met Nyarlathotep walked down the aisle.
It was a dark and lonely looking road.
How long did it take?
Finally, where the man’s footsteps stopped, a middle-aged gentleman wearing a bowler hat stood.
Tower of Trials Senior Manager Rick Hennessey.
“A noble person said to see everyone in such a shabby place. As expected, this is why the Tower of Trials looks interesting.”
“You seem to have plenty of room even in the yard where even Unknown fell. Are you okay with losing your right arm?”
Rick took off his fedora and provoked his opponent.
“Hmm. It’s sad, of course. Until I met the real Kang Jin-hyeok, he was my greatest toy. But when you can deal with the real thing, there’s no reason to be sad because the fake is gone, right?”
“Fake…”
Rick chuckled.
“Is that… you talking to yourself?”
“…”
Creepy.
The air around them froze. Even the passage of time is forgotten. The coldness of living was in stark contrast to the composure that men had shown so far.
For the first time, the laughter disappeared from the man’s voice.
“Looking at you saying that, it looks like your memory has almost come back.”
“Most came to mind only a few days ago.”
Rick nodded slowly.
at the same time.
The staff crossed the air horizontally.
[Rick Hennessy activates his unique skill, ‘Tower of Trials’!]
Kukukukuku!
The surrounding structures changed freely and changed into the shape of a library. It is a place filled with the subtle aroma of coffee and countless books.
“ha ha ha. This is great. As expected, he is the owner of the grand corps and has the ability to be a senior manager. no no no Should I call you by a proper nickname instead of that title now?”
The man who had been clapping loudly changed his voice.
“Owner of the Tower of Trials.”
‘Rick Hennessy’, the first operator and creator of the tower.
It is literally the tower of trials itself that creates and manages the system.
“Enough of disturbing the order of the tower. Too many have been sacrificed for your cause.”
“To the subject of living a life of infinite reincarnation by sealing memories for one’s own amusement… Now, it’s unreasonable to talk about Kang Jin-hyeok and the Order of the Tower.”
I thought that Rick would have regained most of his original memories as well, as he had reached the attack range up to the 40th floor.
but.
The man’s smile deepened even more.
The fact that Rick regained his memory means that he realized his role as the tower’s creator. Now, Rick Hennessy can no longer provide full help by favoring only Kang Jin-hyuk.
Except for one occasion or providing information.
The man and Rick faced each other head on.
“Everyone has one card each.”
“The one standing at the top of the tower will change depending on who has more power.”
Different voices intersect.
***
[You have obtained the ‘Last Rock of the Gorge’!]
Jinhyeok, who obtained the fragment of light, quickly obtained the second holy relic using the right of wish as an excuse.
An army of slaves made up of countless spirit beasts.
“Kek….”
“Kek! Cool… Kuck!”
“I die. no please kill me I want to find rest now.”
The spirits of the village, who had been overworked over and over again, melted as they were.
Beep!
But without a chance to rest, a loud whistle pierced my eardrums.
“What are you doing now? Not moving faster.”
“Even though the latte was 10 times harder than it is now, I didn’t groan once.”
“The Spirit Beasts here must be a bit weak in spirit.”
The spirit beasts of the special spirit unit belonging to Jinhyeok persecuted the same race.
That’s what I saw and learned.
He worked very diligently as Jinhyeok’s hands and feet.
Thanks to this, I was able to easily attack tasks that were considered impossible to the point of being called futile.
“Really, it’s so smooth. At this rate, it will be over in a few days?”
“It’s ridiculous.”
“Sheesh!”
The response was astounding.
In particular, Pesis was in a state where her soul went out, as if she was facing an insurmountable wall.
“Anyway, where did he go without saying a word?”
Chun Yuseong immediately asked Undine, who could be said to be the leader of the Spiritual Beasts.
“Yes! The owner said he went to check something alone, but he will be back soon.”
Undine answered while sweating.
⁕
Same time.
Jinhyeok was staring at a place several kilometers away with the telescope he bought at the ‘Coin Exchange’.
Pachichik…! Parts Tsutt!
A tremendous spark spread through the forest.
A being wrapped in white brilliance and emitting white flames.
That guy is the light spirit king ‘Raybolt’.
Rybolt, in the form of a white stag, was taking a rest while standing still on the spot.
Of course, you shouldn’t be reassured that you look calm.
“Geuuuuuu…”
The emptiness felt in his empty pupils was because he had already lost his reason for a long time.
…it must be dangerous.
The evaluation of the first observation of Ryebolt was exactly that.
It’s even possible to use fragments of light to bring them to their senses.
The problem is how to break through the ‘sphere of light’ that is layered around Ryebolt.
Just drilling through, indiscriminate shelling could be tricky in many ways.
There was a high probability that abilities such as mentra taming and sympathy would not work due to the effect of the sapling.
There must be some way to be a little safer and manage risk….
Just then I was thinking about it.
Sabak.
Jinhyuk heard a strange sign.
This time they weren’t spirit beasts.
“player…?”
Those who knew how to handle magical powers were also the most skillful people who could handle them most skillfully among those I met after their memories were erased.
Even compared to the rankers of the old large guilds, they were rather higher in numbers.
of course.
‘cute.’
From Jinhyeok’s point of view, it felt like seeing clumsy newbies who had just entered the upper class.
‘There’s no way that such talented people could have come to such a remote and pointless ruin without any reason…’ It
was clear that there was a certain purpose.
It also smells very suspicious and insidious.
[‘Eye of gluttony’ is activated!]
Jinhyeok activated the skill at the people approaching from afar.
just as expected.
Name: Jack Eden
Level: 66
Unique Spear: Building a Magic Base
Unique Ability: Navy Seal
Skills: Lv21 ‘Stealth’ Lv20 ‘Single Combat’ Lv20 ‘Sangblood Duty’ Lv20 ‘Distant Perspective’
… Undercover assassination factor kidnapping and more. He mainly works on missions specialized in modern warfare, and is full of confidence in his performance and ability. If you can give him an unforgettable nightmare, you will be able to copy one of his unique abilities and skills. Also, due to his nature of emphasizing penetration, he has never properly used his unique spear, which is specialized in defense, because it hurts his pride. If you have Jack Eden use his Uniqueness Window, you can copy his Uniqueness Window.
They were swing bats who only operated with huge amounts of money from large corporations or large guilds.
It is the moment when information is gathered from corner to corner through Kim Hee-woong and Melena, who are familiar with the dark web.
‘That strange lady eventually crossed the line.’
I know you’re upset.
I completely misunderstood the number I was touching.
Newly added variables.
It seems that there is a way to safely approach Ryebolt.
Jinhyeok woke up the devil inside.
