Chapter 123 The treasure room
I, fogged up, quickly escaped through the crack in the door.
At the same time, the extinction magic circle reached the door.
The magic circle that erased everything, even the entrance, disappeared.
It was close. If I had been a little bit later, if I hadn’t opened the gap even by an inch, I would have died.
I’ve been through a lot, but it can’t end here in vain.
“Quack!”
Are you congratulating me on getting out safely?
Deokchun threw himself at me, who had regained his body.
“Oops. Yes, I am here.”
I stroked the guy who was licking my cheek.
not a bitch Um, Deokchun is not a cat, so is he a frog? What should I say? I don’t know. Anyway, nice to see you again.
I congratulated myself for getting out of the trap safely for a while and looked around.
“Has the mood changed?”
“To the ark.”
In the meantime, the labyrinth was a bloody landscape. The lighting was dim, the aisles were gloomy, and there was not the slightest hint of aesthetics.
[Night vision ends.]
This place is well lit and the walls are covered with wallpaper.
It is still a closed space without a single window, but at least it is a space where human touch is felt.
I ran my finger across the wall.
I haven’t touched any particular dust, and I don’t see any places where bloodstains or other pitfalls might be hiding.
It looked like nothing more and nothing less than a simple hallway.
Still, you shouldn’t let go.
In this way, it is possible to induce carelessness and then attack.
I had doubts first, perhaps because I had been through so much work at the Tower.
Thanks to struggling to survive in the extinction magic circle, it is physically and mentally very difficult.
We’re exhausted, but let’s start by making sure we’re safe.
[The eyes that watch the S-class Power Star are displayed.]
“Umm!”
I had a slight headache, but the power use itself was successful.
I checked for hidden traps regardless of front and back.
“You are still safe.”
Confirmed that there are no separate devices.
Whoa. He let out a long breath. First of all, recovery comes first.
[Shower (E) Lv.4]
“That’s it.”
“Ugh. good night.”
When I cast the shower skill, a warm energy enveloped my body and relieved tension.
It’s a little bit, but I feel like my body is recovering. Tired muscles regain strength, and tiredness goes away to some extent.
Perfect skill to maintain condition.
It was only a temporary measure, though. The shower skill is only auxiliary, but needs to be properly recovered.
Fortunately, I have a way to do that.
[Fire (E) Lv.2]
I threw fire on the floor.
preparations are over
“Would you like to shake it?”
“To that.”
Deokchun and I started dancing around the bonfire.
I know it doesn’t suit the situation, but I can’t help it.
It’s all because I want to use the effect of the title I’ve acquired.
[Incarnation of Fire and Dance – Title]
-Brilliant flames! A passionate dance!
– Buffs are created when you light a bonfire and dance.
A title obtained in the Yeti Dungeon.
The effect was clear.
[Feel better!]
[All status ailments are reduced]
[Recovery effect increases]
[Stats temporarily increase]
[Mental protection is activated]
Conditions noticeably improve.
The title effect is so good that it applies not only to me, but also to those who dance with me.
About 5 meters around the campfire.
It is convenient to understand it as a wide-area buff.
Deokchun was also recovering with a flutter.
I’m not the only one who suffered in the labyrinth. I’ve had a lot of help since then.
“Isn’t it worth living now?”
“Aww!”
It takes about 10 minutes to get the effect, and you feel refreshed.
I sprayed Deokchun some water with the water skill and turned off the light.
Now we have to move again.
It’s already been 5 days since I entered the labyrinth. I have to endure for two more days to get out of the labyrinth, and I haven’t found a way out yet.
Same goes for treasure. Food is also limited, so it was good to clear it as quickly as possible.
moving forward. It was steadily moving forward, marking the way.
No pitfalls yet. If there is one change.
“Don’t you think the circle mark has increased?”
“Ugh. Whew.”
The number of circles marked on the aisle has increased.
It’s probably a passage through another way to get here.
The triangles are visible occasionally, and the squares are not visible.
As expected, the square mark leads to a dead end.
Memorizing the rough geography in my head, I hurried my steps.
I strongly feel that I am close to the treasure.
What the hell is the treasure hidden in the labyrinth?
Why did you think it was a disaster?
Considering that it was coveted by the nobility of the empire, it is certain that it is a great item.
“Gweek.”
Just when I was lost in thought, Deokchun pulled me.
“Is it over there?”
I looked at the huge door in the alley.
dead end road. The last place where a passageway connected to other places arrives.
[Where the treasure rests]
– Those who are not prepared, go back.
Above the door was written a bloody sentence.
I have no intention of going back. I was prepared to take risks. All that remains is to obtain a suitable reward for the hardships so far.
-Kiiik
looked at his body condition.
recovered a lot It seems that the magic power is also quite full.
Deokchun also inflated his body with fighting spirit.
shit. High five once.
“Let’s go in.”
“To that.”
I opened the treasure room.
A door that slides without resistance.
Upon entering, the door closed by itself, and inside.
“wow.”
A space reminiscent of a museum appeared.
Various items were placed on neat shelves.
[Treasures collected by Puregos, the righteous enemy]
-Puregos stole and collected things from nobles who caused chaos.
-This is his legacy and the place where the treasures of Great Fron rest.
-You can choose one treasure.
-If all treasures are lost, the labyrinth will be closed.
It is the same as when hyaltin remains.
Those who enter the labyrinth have the right to have treasure, but they must choose only one treasure.
All great stuff. It was full of valuable art and items as well as gold and silver treasures.
Although it is.
“You don’t think this is the main thing?”
“Wow.”
It is literally a treasure, but not something that can be called a disaster.
I looked away and moved along the road.
Slowly, the shelf shrank, revealing an empty cavity.
altar. Blue flames flickered on tall pillars.
“Who entered the labyrinth?”
A muffled voice greeted me.
In an instant, my body felt numb.
live upright. A visceral warning about alien beings.
I looked at the existence floating in the air.
“…rich?”
I couldn’t help but frown.
A four-star undead monster. Unlike zombies and skeletons that have no ego, they have all the memories of when they were alive.
He’s a tougher guy to deal with. It’s because the behavior itself is different from those who run ignorantly.
“You are a climber.”
Richie looked down at me.
The flames burning in the empty eyes were filled with only death and thoughts.
Dangerous.
A lich is basically a being who is good at magic.
Pouring out all sorts of outlandish magic was also threatening, but the biggest problem was…
‘It resurrects endlessly until the life vessel containing the soul is broken.’
Whether it purifies an unclean entity with an attack containing powerful divine power, it will always revive and deal with enemies unless it is put to sleep with a special sealing skill.
It takes a lot of work to catch one.
This alone is surprising.
[Rich-Puregos]
-The one who fell into temptation.
– Baron Puregos gained immortality through a deal with the devil.
– He will guard the treasure.
The information revealed through the authority was even more surprising.
Baron Puregos.
The protagonist who created the labyrinth.
The last boss here was him.
All doubts are now solved.
Why is the treasure map piece empty? Who left a mark in the labyrinth? Who came to the labyrinth before me?
“As soon as I became an NPC, I went to the labyrinth, Puregos.”
“Hey, do you know me?”
Arch Lich clicked his chin to see if he was interested.
“I know you are the one who made the labyrinth.”
“Looks like you got a map.”
What makes you feel so good? He giggled and spread his hands.
A huge fireball rises.
Even I, who didn’t know much about magic, could feel it.
How powerful is the magic power contained in that fireball. It was because the air was vibrating with energy emanating from there.
The intangible energy piercing your body makes you break out in a cold sweat.
“You shouldn’t have come in here, you blind to treasure.”
I laughed at the words of the Archrich.
The guy who saw it gnashed his teeth.
“Smile?”
“sorry. I have a disease that makes me laugh when I hear dogs.”
Blinded by treasure.
“Isn’t it you who lost your eyes, Baron Puregos?”
It was clearly written. He is said to have fallen into temptation.
Why did you leave a mark on the labyrinth? Is there anything wrong It must have been to sneak in alone and take the treasure.
Even turning himself into a monster.
Hainu held out until the end. The guy who asked to make a labyrinth used sealed treasures? It’s ridiculous.
“Don’t insult my sacrifice! You cannot let other ignorant people have it. I had no choice but to protect it!”
“okay. Work hard on self-justification.”
I cast my gaze toward the altar.
Because the true treasure of the labyrinth was there.
A simple design thing.
[Demon Summoning Horn (S)]
– You can summon a demon and make an immortal pact.
– Those who obtain immortality belong to the devil.
– It is imbued with the energy of a higher level demon. Intermediate and lower demons feel fear.
-Seduces those who are weak in spirit.
S-class artifact.
It is an immortal contract. Does it make you undead?
Just like the Baron became an Archlich.
A world rushing towards destruction. There was one reason why the nobles were greedy.
Because I want to survive even if I make a contract with the devil. Because I want to remain in the world even if I become undead.
A primal fear of death.
Originally, it would have been a taboo act, but it would have been meaningless in a situation where the world was collapsing.
Plus tempting options. Could the already insecure people survive?
“You will sleep here.”
After those words, the Arch Reach offensive began.
Fireballs flying towards me.
ran right sideways. Fighting head-on is foolish.
-Quaaaang!
A fireball that hits the ground causes a huge explosion.
A blow that completely covered the entire area.
How many firebombs do you have to use to get that much destructive power?
gulp. swallowed saliva
“Gww!”
Deokchun warned. Two fireballs he made. There is still one left.
“Strike until the end, climber. enjoy it for a long time Until the next intruder gets here!”
“shit!”
A rapidly approaching fireball.
As I tried to jump again, a vine that sprouted from the ground caught my ankle without warning.
-Suddenly!
At the same time as he cut the vine with his sword, he threw a firebomb at the fireball. You shouldn’t be hit directly. Thoughts of inducing an explosion.
– Kwaaaaang!
The fireball exploded before reaching me.
It would be nice if Firebomb could reduce the power to some extent, but the magic of the Arch Reach was too strong.
“Kha ha ha!”
The aftermath of the explosion turned into flames and overtook me.
[Fire resistance (C) Lv.1]
[Rigid body (C) Lv.9]
[Revenge (A) effect. The damage is absorbed!]
[You get fatal burns from abnormal conditions.]
Passive skills were activated in succession to protect the body, but the impact was enormous.
The whole body feels ripe.
It’s hard to even breathe in the heat that permeates the inside.
At least it can withstand physical attacks to some extent, but it has no immunity to magical attacks.
I lay on the floor and glared at him.
There was no additional riding, as if he was sincere in saying that he would enjoy it for a long time.
I’ll be grateful if you keep your guard down.
[Leadership (A) Lv.2]
[Buff Dice (B) Lv.3]
[5]
[Paladin’s Shield]
I put a buff on my body.
[Fire (E) Lv. 2]
[Feline set properties are granted!]
Poured magic power and set fire to the air.
The attribute of Fellain’s helmet is fire.
The stronger firepower made the altar turn red in an instant.
– Dig!
Taking advantage of the dizzy gap in his eyes, he leaped.
The destination is Ark Rich.
“You foolish.”
he waved his hand at me.
[Death Side (AA) Lv.10]
-Wields the scythe of death.
– Avoid!
Power issued a warning. Because it was such a dangerous blow.
But I didn’t avoid it.
– Suaaa!
[Fog Dash (A) Lv. 1]
The scythe of death cuts through the fogged body.
There was no blow. It was a fleeting moment, but I was immune to all attacks.
[Return of the Dead (A) Lv.5]
-All debuffs are removed!
– All stats increase by 300%!
-Buffs and healing effects are increased by 300%!
I used Return of the Dead at the timing when the Fog was released.
The burns disappear and strength surges throughout the body.
The effect obtained from buff dice has become stronger.
[The Unyielding Sword Demon (SS) is displayed.]
I cut his throat.
