Episode 78 How a deceased person defends (3)
“Eat a lot, our cutie Cherry.”
Jinhyeok stroked the reddish man-eating plant.
It ate all the food in the warehouse, so its size and power were beyond imagination.
OK.
“Keeeeek!”
A gigantic plant reaching 10 meters in height roared wildly.
The air roars.
Contrary to its cute nickname, could a more terrible nightmare exist for the players who confront it?
“Oh come!”
“Damn it all spread out! If you stick together, you will be annihilated!”
Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah!
Huge vines quickly swept the inside of the mart.
“What the hell are you doing!”
Hwangbogunak roared and fluttered frantically.
“huh?”
“If you destroy this base right next door, the number of zombies going to you will be much higher! But why did he do such a stupid thing!”
The 4th floor is a competitive structure and at the same time a layer that requires minimal collaboration.
It means that if you openly troll and ‘he’ wakes up, everyone could die.
Even if it was a member of Moorim on the 20th floor.
‘There’s no way that stupid player would know that.’
If you knew the consequences of your actions, you wouldn’t even dare to do something like this.
Hwangbogunak clicked his tongue inwardly as if frustrated.
but.
“You must be afraid of the Queen.”
The words that came out of Jinhyeok’s mouth completely overturned expectations.
“You know… about the Queen?”
“Of course I know.”
There are two ways to get special rewards on the 4th floor.
The first is getting the most kills.
And the second is to be elected as a popular base through a vote of subscribers.
Like this.
However, there is actually another way to reap the rewards.
There’s a third way that you can never get by the normal way.
Hidden Quest ‘The Womb of the Dead’.
Defeating the queen of zombies is the way to get the biggest reward you can get on this floor.
“…I can’t believe it. How could a human who had just entered the tower…” “
If one of the large bases guarded by over 200 players is destroyed before the 3rd wave, a special event will occur. That is the case right now.”
‘Although I found this method as an expedient way to bring a cheap clay doll to life.’
Large strongholds normally defended by more than 200 people were never captured before the 3rd wave.
That’s why, when it is known that human power is overwhelmingly weak, the queen of zombies wakes up.
It means moving directly to the base where humans are located in order to wipe out enemies who are not worth dealing with at once.
Hearing Jinhyeok’s unhindered reply, Hwangbogunak lost any reason to doubt.
It’s true.
The opponent knows everything.
“You mean you know about the existence of the queen, but are you thinking of calling her?”
“I don’t want to block 50 waves of zombies one by one. It’s boring. Not to mention the fatigue of the mind and body.”
If things go right, you should be in these gloomy ruins for at least a few weeks.
There is a way to avoid suffering, but there is no reason to go back to the difficult path.
Of course, at first I tried to attack with a straight attack method.
This is because in order to destroy a large stronghold within 3 waves, it was necessary to massacre ordinary players.
But from the moment I met these guys.
And since these guys picked one of the large strongholds called Maat.
The plan has changed.
There was no reason to feel any remorse against those who first pointed the knife at them.
“With this, all of your bases have been destroyed.”
It is impossible to deal with zombies without a base, no matter how talented they are in the middle class.
Because the limits of the size and physical strength of the troops were a wall that could never be crossed as an individual.
“So, the time left. Somewhere, live to the fullest.”
The purpose of coming here has been accomplished, and now it is time to return.
Jinhyuk turned around without hesitation.
“Where is this guy to rip and kill just say what he wants to say and run away! Do you think you can get out of here alive?”
Kakakang!
Sparks flew from Zhuge Chun’s sword.
However, Jinhyeok walked out of the mart without even paying attention to Jegalcheon.
Because there is no reason to fight anymore.
already.
“Keeeeek!”
Plants that would turn the base completely into ruins were firmly supporting it.
＊＊＊
Same time.
bang! bang! bang! Kwaaang!
At the Sangam Stadium, black waves rushing like crazy hit rocky plants.
[The rock plant activates Lv1 ‘Deep Roots’!]
Because the rock plant has such a hard and steep body, even the zombies couldn’t easily cross the wall.
Then, this time, the zombies started climbing, using their bodies as a stepping stone.
“Kreur!”
“Kuaa!”
The bodies of the zombies below were crushed by the weight, but they did not feel pain in the first place.
But the moment the first zombie crosses the shield plant and enters the arena.
“To height?”
A shadow fell over the zombie’s head.
[The meat plant uses Lv1 ‘Full Body Leap’!]
Wow!
The massive flesh plant, which could easily weigh several tons, crushed the zombies as they were.
In addition, ice-covered plants radiated cold air and reduced the movement speed of zombies.
A really neat defense.
For the remaining four people, it was enough just to clean up.
“…that’s really great. It’s already to the point where self-defense is possible without players intervening. Did Jinhyuk-ssi calculate all of this?”
Theresa muttered with a mixture of admiration and awe.
It is an unbelievable sight to see.
“My older brother probably would have.”
“I thought I knew a lot about him because we used to go out together, but looking at it this way, I still feel like we’ve come a long way.”
Lee Tae-min and Yoo Yeon-hwa also added one word at a time.
“…”
On the other hand, Chun Youseong frowned as if he was dissatisfied with everything.
The more he sees the competitor he has to overcome, the more he becomes annoyed because he is a huge monster.
Enemies who go beyond individual combat skills and design the situation were extremely difficult to deal with.
But that was just then.
[The large base ‘Mart’ has been captured.]
A status window suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
“What is it?”
Teresa exclaimed in surprise.
“If it’s a mart, it’s where the Chinese players used to be. You said it was pierced?”
“It’s ridiculous…”
“Couldn’t it… have something to do with your brother?”
The time when Jinhyeok left with a big smile and the timing when the base was captured matched so exquisitely.
Above all else, it didn’t make sense that a large stronghold with such strong power collapsed without being able to stop even the second wave of zombies.
Undoubtedly.
Something strange is happening.
And as if to prove it.
[A special event has occurred.]
[The owner of the 4th floor, ‘Pendariel’, moves to punish the weak players.] A
red status window then appeared.
“The owner of the 4th floor… what the hell is that?”
“Nonsense. Wasn’t it enough to stop the zombie wave here?”
The fact that there is a boss monster on the 4th floor was the first thing even Lee Tae-min and Yoo Yeon-hwa had heard of this place.
Of course, other people also had no idea about the existence of Pendariel.
“Looks like you’re plotting something big again.”
Chun Youseong muttered as he looked out of the arena.
＊＊＊
After coming out of the mart, Jinhyeok moved around the roof of the building.
It was to find the right place to use the item.
How long did it run like that?
‘It’s here.’
Jinhyuk’s footsteps stopped.
There were many bases around it, so the flow of magic was complicatedly entangled, and it wasn’t far from the Sangam Stadium.
It is perfect.
Jinhyeok took out a small stone from the subspace inventory.
A special item obtained by defeating Muhon, the boss monster on the 3rd floor.
It was a ‘stone that blocks the sun’.
[Stone that blocks the sun]
Difficulty to obtain: Unknown
Description: A ceremonial relic used in the ancient Mayan Empire to block the sun and bring darkness. When used, reduces the abilities of the 5 elements (water, fire, earth, wind, light) by 50%, and increases dark property abilities by 100%.
[The violence option is forcibly activated.]
This is an item that should never be used on the 4th floor.
Most of the abilities players use were one of the five elemental abilities.
On the other hand, zombies will double their movement speed and attack speed if they receive ferocity with the dark attribute.
but.
Crunchy!
As if laughing at all of that, Jinhyeok broke the stone.
Shattered fragments fell on the roof.
Then right at that moment.
Whoa!
Darkness swallowed the sun.
A thick carpet began to fall over the building.
With this, the difficulty of attacking the 4th floor will rise dramatically.
Of course, I didn’t use this item simply to enjoy the thrill.
Another event occurs when a person intentionally takes risks.
as soon as.
[human. What do you think?]
As expected.
A message that only the boss monster can use appeared due to an action that was far from common sense.
It was the same kind of message Alice used in the corridor.
“Looking at it, it looks like you guys are trying to destroy the bases, is that right?”
[Only. Even the scouts couldn’t stop it. against the guys. There’s no need to save strength.]
“I’m sorry I looked funny, but don’t touch other bases and come to me. The Sangam Stadium in the back is my base.”
[human. alone. sacrifice. Do you say?]
“Rather than sacrificing it, it’s meaningless even if 1 million zombies come in.”
[Feeling? come out. My children?]
Pendariel’s voice changed.
Because of the lack of intelligence, even the tone of the translation was not corrected, but anger was oozing from the tone.
you will be angry
Because only one human ignored the boss monster on one floor.
“Take on the challenge with all the forces you have. I’ll wipe it all away.”
Jinhyuk smirked.
[good night. human. your stronghold. smash it first Warning to all humans. So that you regret not daring to attack us.]
The Queen’s message ended there.
After a while, troops filled with her wrath will come here.
‘I guess it was recorded well?’
Jinhyeok inspected the broadcasting system.
[The edited version of the video from the large-scale ‘Mart’ until just now is being uploaded.] After
confirming that the video was uploaded, Jinhyeok clenched his fists.
‘good.’
everything went according to plan
The stupid Chinese players couldn’t defend a single base, so they triggered a hidden quest.
That’s why you have to prepare for the worst.
Just then, player Kang Jin-hyeok risked himself to save everyone.
To make the zombies flock to their stronghold by using the ‘stone that blocks the sun’.
In everyone’s eyes, you will look like a hero.
but.
‘Most kill reward and popularity vote. In addition, I will collect all the rewards for catching the boss monster.’
The corners of Jinhyuk’s mouth went up.
Saving people is a bonus.
The main objective is to wipe out all rewards.
With this, he created a golden opportunity to monopolize the public’s popularity and honeydew.
no one else
‘With my own strength.’
