Chapter 17

Episode 17. Street of Murder (4)

[Goddess’ Mischief: Non-first attack on monsters in the stage. Significantly increased agility. When attacked, there is a 10% chance of a blessing from the goddess or mischief.]

The sun swallowed a sigh inwardly.

‘I’m glad it’s real.’

[‘KKTheBest’ donated KRW 1000,000!]

[Goddess’ Protection → Shield Goddess’ Mischief → Enhance]

-Mr. What kind of support is burning a million won at a time?

-My monthly salary in 3 hours.

– It looks like the money is rotting away.

-If you’re KK, you’re not someone who has to worry about money.

-Isn’t Yoon Taeyang like that too?

-That’s it too.

“A shield is a shield. Enhancement is a buff, right?”

-huh. it will be right

Then the system window popped up.

[Exchanging air and water.]

[A blue light falls on player Taeyang Yoon.]

Blue light.

I have a reason to go a little more quietly than before.

Taeyang searched a few more surrounding buildings, focusing on reducing his presence.

“hmm. It looks like you’ve looked all around.”

I checked the supplies that Taeyang farmed.

Elixir that raises stats necessary for battle, such as muscle strength and reflexes.

The performance wasn’t bad.

There was no elixir-level doping item like Apophis’ venom gland, but it was a strange thing to eat Apophis’ venom gland in the first place.

One regrettable thing is that there is no doping item that is the raw material of the combination.

-Let’s just eat this.

“okay.”

An immediate increase in power was also a necessary factor.

Aaaaaaagh!

As the sun consumed the elixir, a tearing scream was heard from somewhere.

– Oh, that’s a surprise.

“Is there a battle around?”

– Let’s avoid it for now.

The street of murder was divided into three districts.

A residential district centered on apartment villas

A factory district lined with factories.

And the commercial district with all kinds of shops and markets.

There are no people, but it is separated by buildings.

The texture of the supplies that came out frequently in each district was also different.

In the residential district, the type that jumped relatively well, and in the factory district, high-quality equipment and commercial district leap and equipment came out equally.

At this time the Sun was in the residential Earth.

“Shall we turn towards the factory district?”

factory district.

This is where most of the equipment comes from.

Even though I couldn’t consume it in ‘The Goddess’ Mischief’, I even got ‘Apopis’ Poison Gland’.

Even though it was farming for a short time, the farming status of doping items was not bad.

-huh. Let’s go get the equipment. Your outfit is too shabby right now.

There was a sufficient supply of doping items, but only one equipment item was obtained.

“Equipment is just as important as doping items.”

-From a macro perspective, equipment is more important.

Doping items are only applied in the Street of Murder stage, but equipment is not.

It means that it can be used in the next stage as well.

Thanks to this, the factory district was the most densely populated area for players.

If you can get the same extra power, you’ll want more sustainable equipment than a one-time elixir.

-Isn’t the factory district the most explosive?

-But you can’t not farm equipment.

-ᄋᄋᄋ There aren’t many stages that spread equipment like this.

Farming of equipment.

It is an important factor.

‘But that’s not what’s important in the factory district.’

Over 10 factories.

In one of them was the key to the landmark clock tower in the center of the city.

The clock tower is an ordinary building on the outside, but inside it was a hidden stage filled with clockwork soldiers.

And on top of that was an artifact.

It is not an Artifact of the level of using Firestorm encountered in the snake’s den, but an Artifact of tremendous performance with enough performance to change the player’s fighting style.

“Are you asking me to manipulate the stage?”

“It’s not manipulation. Isn’t this much up to the discretion of the demon lord of the floor in charge? This is not an arena for power battles after the 37th floor.”

“There doesn’t seem to be any problem. I like it.”

Dantalian grinned.

“The rewards that will fall to the players are um. Andromalius, since it’s your layer, how about searching for Noble Phantasms?”

‘Searching for Noble Phantasm’ is a rare level disposable skill card that gains a synergy of deadly poison +1 thief +1 wizard +1 when slotted.

When a skill is used, there is a function that informs the location of a card with a unique grade or higher in the corresponding stage. It can be used only when the level is unique or higher.

“great.”

Following Belial’s agreement, Andromalius nodded as well.

Now it’s time to choose your players.

The player was struck by Belial.

“I’ll bet on the tiger’s rim.”

“What? Didn’t you hate the beast race?”

“Irrespective of emotions, judgment should be made rationally. Level of supply and demand for skills and supplies. Aggressiveness. At least on this 5th floor stage, he is the strongest.”

Dantalian turned to Andromalius.

“That one?”

“I bet on beastmen too. Valkar, the wolf beast. If you lead a life-and-death fight to the end, the one with grit will win in the end.”

Dantalian smiled lightly.

“You two belong to the beast tribe.”

Belial looked at Dantalian.

“I am curious about your choice. What remains is blur. Are you Arin, the fox beast? I’m sorry Because there was no ‘guy’ who went up first.”

“Even if there is, Belial, you would have struck first.”

“oh. Caught.”

“surely... ... . The other remaining players aren’t even comparable to the Beasts.”

Dantalian opened his mouth.

“I’ll bet on player Yun Taeyang.”

Andromalius’ eyes lit up.

“Yun Taeyang? The skills are at a high level, but it must have been less than a day since you came in? Isn’t the difference in supply level significant?”

“Andromalius. Are you a player you know?”

Belial asked.

Belial was the Demon Lord in charge of the 7th to 9th floors, so he was relatively ignorant of the players on the lower floors.

Andromalius replied.

“He ranks first among players from ‘Earth’. The speed of supply and demand for achievements is close to the previous level.”

“Ah Earth.”

Belial’s expression darkened.

Most demon kings thought that humans from Earth were only chaff with a lot of numbers.

This tendency became more severe for the demon king in charge of the higher floors, because the limits of the players from Earth seemed clearer as they went upstairs.

They even recently refused to climb the labyrinth as a group.

It is said that refusal to climb is a problem that time will solve, but there are few demon kings who like humans from Earth because those who do not have the ability are not sincere.

“Originally, precious jewels are mixed among insignificant stones. Player Yoon Taeyang is such a player.”

“well. Isn’t gold coming from a vein of gold and silver from a vein of silver?”

At Belial’s words, Dantalian shrugged.

“I can’t imagine. Are players from Earth really that great?”

Belial asked with a doubtful face.

She was a person who believed that the background of the earth itself did not match the dimensional labyrinth in the first place.

“You don’t believe me?”

“Honestly. The limit for players from Earth was the 45th floor. On top of that, everyone has degenerated into mediocre players. Did you see it?”

Belial’s words are certainly true.

Dantalian shrugged.

“What I am sure of. Would you like to place a bet this time?”

“In kind?”

“yes. I bet the voice of a wise man that Yoon Taeyang wins.”

Andromalius frowned.

“Are we going to gamble now?”

“I want to walk for fun. for fun. Is there anything you can’t do?”

All sports are like that.

It’s fun enough just to watch it, but the moment a big or small bet is placed, you become more immersed in watching it.

Andromalius leaned back and leaned back in his chair.

“I will fall.”

Dantalian looked at Belial.

“That one?”

“Not bad. I think it will be a good entertainment. I bet 3 mage souls.”

Her cherry lips drew an arc.

“great. The bet is settled.”

Dantalian clapped and clapped.

Andromalius waved his hand and raised the screen to the 5th floor.

“Then let’s see. Whose discernment is the most accurate?”
