Episode 373
Priyan looks at the fishtail with an excited face.
“This is my first time seeing Shinsu eat something!”
Sook.
Although it had no mouth, it was swallowing food well. It feels like a vacuum cleaner being sucked through the skin.
X grabbed his head.
‘Food costs will increase again!’
After all, they are all just gluttons.
Yongyong’s appetite makes his mouth hurt when he talks about it, and even a hawk boasts of eating more than an elephant considering its size.
As if that wasn’t enough, looking at the little boy with his head stuck on a plate...
“Is this how my father feels?”
I felt like I needed to gain strength to avoid starving.
The Heavenly Gourmet buff has also been updated. After cleaning up, you have to climb the stairs again.
“I’ve been coming up without hesitation until now, but...”
Priyan trailed off.
It seems like he is worried about his future climb to the ‘Abode of the Heavenly Gods’.
It was worth it.
Wasn’t the level just 5,000 just for the trial you just defeated?
Even though it was weaker than Nidhogg, it had strength appropriate for its level.
“So we need to be more careful and nervous.”
From the 12th floor onwards, the saved numbers had to be utilized where appropriate.
Bear stance, Phoenix wings, liberation of the eight gates, various sub-skills, etc.
If you think the cooldown time is a waste, you could end up in a difficult situation.
As expected, the air on the 12th floor was different.
Whoop-!
As soon as you exhale, the breath flows out.
“Breath? “Is it cold here?”
But it wasn’t cold at all.
Priyan suspiciously summoned a stream of water and was startled.
Clink!
“Heh.”
The stream of water fired from my finger froze in an instant. Because it fell to the floor and broke.
X shrugged his shoulders.
“You should thank me.”
Truly murderous cold.
However, no matter how extreme the environment is, it is useless in front of heavenly cuisine.
X stepped onto the 12th floor without being at all intimidated.
What greeted X was a huge piece of ice.
‘The highest level ever.’
A level that surpasses Nidhogg!
He has the ability to use these monsters as home guards.
Indeed, it seemed that the Heavenly God was not a Heavenly God for nothing. But at the same time, I had doubts.
The trials I have seen so far had something in common.
‘They were all humanoid monsters, right?’
They may have wings, be surrounded by flames, or wear rusty armor.
Although there were differences in appearance, the trials were all humanoid monsters.
The same goes for the ice sculpture in front. A damaged helmet is visible beneath the thick ice.
‘The same goes for the shoulder pattern.’
Kuuk!
X grabbed his mace right away.
What relationship do the trials of unidentified humanoid monsters have with the Heavenly Gods? I have a reasonable question.
However, this is a scene of intense trials where even the slightest letdown is not tolerated!
No matter how good you are, if you are surrounded by dozens of Nidhogs, you have no chance of winning.
“Let’s finish it before the others come!”
“I absolutely agree!”
sparkle!
Priyan immediately gave his blessing to X.
[The energy of wind assists you!]
[Your attack speed increases significantly for a short period of time!]
[The energy of the earth assists you!]
[Your strength increases significantly for a short period of time!]
[The energy of water assists you! Do it!]
[Mana consumption decreases significantly for a short period of time!]
Explosive energy.
First, let’s deal with the trials ahead.
After selecting the target,
Kwajak!
It’s not flashy, but it’s a simple swing. This is a swing that has reached a level beyond master.
Not only was the level of the mobs pouring in from all directions at least 6000, but their movements were beyond imagination.
‘It really felt like I was fighting against experts.’
The experts that X is talking about are people like Sioras and Ligrien.
These are people who know how to monitor the situation of the war and use their brains to engage in battle. Thanks to this, I couldn’t find a suitable pattern for the mobs.
“Wow, I didn’t know this would go bad.”
Crackling.
X smoothed the hollow chest of the ‘Lord of the Earth’. The armor made from legendary minerals was damaged.
Even though X was extremely precious about one of his belongings, he didn’t feel like it was a waste.
“If I hadn’t had the equipment, I would have died at least twice.”
“Only twice? “When I saw him, he died 10 times more.”
“Anyway, I’m glad I’m alive.”
The higher trials involved more diverse humanoid monsters.
Even knights, priests and wizards.
The level 6,000 mobs were fully prepared for battle and narrowed the siege, but even X did not have the talent to withstand them.
[Phoenix Wings cooldown: 26 hours 21 minutes]
“I tried to save it until the last moment.”
Tsk, X couldn’t help but whet his appetite.
Fortunately, I updated the Heavenly Cooking buff in advance, so I benefited from the cooldown time.
Instead of waiting two days, I only had to wait one day to be able to use the phoenix wings again.
X was troubled for a moment.
‘Should I hold on for a day and then go?’
Waiting for the Phoenix Wings cooldown seemed like the best option.
As you face the risk of death on the 14th floor, there must be even more danger lurking upstairs.
“...good.”
“What is good?”
“Let’s stay here for a day and then go up.”
Even if you spend a day, it only lasts a few hours in real time.
There was enough time to force logout, so there was no need to rush. Besides, isn’t there something to do?
“Let’s have a leisurely tea time to relieve fatigue.”
Summon the World Tree, a skill book obtained from the Heavenly Library!
In order to meet the usage limit, the mana tank had to be increased.
Let’s see what ingredients are effective in increasing mana capacity.
X, who was looking through the inventory, soon lined up food ingredients and various tea leaves.
‘Oh, shall we distribute points first?’
A notification sound kept ringing in my ears. X opened the status window to check.
Name: X
Job: Heavenly Gourmet
Title: Those who witnessed the truth:
1043

Pyeong: 1750 pyeong:

“...This was enough to make my ears feel noisy.”
The result of climbing the stairs without stopping!
X has surpassed level 1000. Vitality also exceeded 7 million, and due to the influence of newly created divine power, mana capacity also increased little by little each time the level went up.
‘Holy power has good synergy with mana. Should I invest a little more?’
Patience, courage, composure, intuition, and even divine power.
Bonus points have also been distributed.
X immediately started lighting the wood fire.
Since the goal was to raise the stats, I couldn’t be satisfied with just one. Wood fires burning everywhere.
Priyan and Gomoul looked at X closely.
“What kind of wind suddenly blew and did that?”
A person with an ordinary sense of taste could not understand someone with a heavenly sense of taste.
Bubbly!
Various tea leaves were thrown into dozens of pots where the extract began to boil, and various spices were added to them to subtly change the taste.
Tiroling!
[Heavenly taste has discovered the hidden taste of ‘curry-flavored barley tea’!]
[Maximum mana increases by 150 points!]
[Intelligence increases by 1 point!]
X smiled after savoring the scent to the fullest.
An estimate has been received.
“I guess I can take a picture before the cooldown expires?”
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
