CH 40

Infinite Multiplication (2)

kukukuku!

Heavy mana filled the underground interior.

shit .

Alice's face was stiffer than ever.

The absolutes that exist in this tower.

If Elise is the pinnacle of a species... .

The opponent is one of the apex of a myth.

It means that it is an enemy that can never be seen lightly.

I'll take care of him, so in the meantime, somehow get out of the way.

Huh?

I can somehow survive, so you should run away first!

What? Were you worried about me?

It's the size of a Pomeranian.

What is it like to stand in front of you proudly?

It's like a dog trying to protect its owner.

What are you worried about! I'm just, if you die, we won't keep the promise we made. I'm just trying to stop it!

Alice screamed in annoyance.

Don't worry, just watch.

What? Now is the time to be proud of yourself here?

I'm not bragging about myself. I'm just asking you to trust me.

I'll show.

Who is the player you signed with?

And who might be laughing at the end?

kuung! kuung! kuung!

with a huge roar. A stone statue of 3 m in size appeared.

An appearance modeled after a desert jackal.

This is the subterranean boss monster, Anubis.

It's funny. Did you hear anything about me from Jinjo on your shoulder?

Anubis 'questioned'.

huuuuuuoooooooooooooooooooo

The air changed rapidly.

This feeling, this feeling.

Also, do you want to activate it?

[Anubis activates his unique ability 'Judgment of Anubis'!]

The caster asks three questions.

If the subject answers three questions.

Thereby the condition is satisfied.

done.

The corners of Jinhyuk's mouth twisted slightly.

Yeah, that's right. Or how would I know this place?

So is it.

Anubis nodded as if in understanding.

If it was a high-ranking creature like Jinjo, it was quite possible that he knew about the underground.

Is the purpose of coming here to aim for 'Hive'?

Well, that's it. If you buy it and sell it on the black market, you can get a good share.

If it's an item that can multiply insects indefinitely, it's really worth the price.

second with this.

Then I will ask you one last time. Grave robber, it is a natural habit of small creatures to be blinded by treasures, but did you think that you could come back alive after entering my realm?

Last but not least, a pretty boring question.

That's of course... .

If I can't get rid of you, I'll bite your tongue and die.

Jinhyuk shrugged.

And at the end of those words.

huuuuuuoooooooooooooooooooo

God's power was manifested.

[All requirements have been met.]

[Judgment of Anubis is activated!]

[All stats are reduced by 50%!]

[The use of unique abilities and skills is sealed for 1 minute!]

Status windows appearing one after another.

At the same time, I felt the mana and strength in my body rapidly diminishing.

The sharp senses were dulled, and the skills and unique abilities that were familiar to them disappeared.

However,

It's not over yet.

Because the real fear of this ability was what followed.

[Anubis chooses a 'war of judgment'!]

Don't introduce me. This is the great fighter who will be my hands and feet.

A low, deep voice rang out.

And at that very moment.

Keeeeeeek!

A powerful mana that could not be compared with the insects he had dealt with so far rose.

kukukuku!

The whole basement shook.

A great warrior who has been chosen by God and obeys his orders.

Therefore, the great player has the power to crush all enemies that stand in his way.

The pale skin and the dazzling front claws stood out.

'Isn't this guy level 71?'

The level of the blood relatives I met in the corridor was in their late 50s, so it can be considered higher.

But the situation is different back then.

Because the stats and unique abilities were sealed due to the 'Judgment of Anubis' now.

Jinhyuk held a dagger without a sword in his hand.

Stop drooling. Do you want to eat my hair like that?

Keiei!

Even if you don't know the Masu language, that probably means 'yes'.

Come to think of it, there were some people who used the beast language among their unique abilities.

If you fuse related abilities, what will pop out?

It was when Jinhyuk was thinking about something else for a while.

Sasak!

The Giant Mentis slid quickly over the sand.

The distance narrowed in an instant.

Scythe-like claws stretched out toward the neck.

But.

Kaga!

Jinhyuk slightly twisted the trajectory with his dagger.

The claws split the air.

Kek?

swaying

The body of the Giant Mentis leaned forward greatly.

This is because the center of gravity is completely shaken.

'It's completely full of gaps.'

What would you do if you could see 360 degrees with compound eyes?

I don't have time to react.

A playful smile lingered in Jinhyuk's eyes.

At the same time, the dagger slashed through the gaps of the Giant Mentis.

Whoops!

The sound of flesh breaking apart.

Green fluid spurted out.

It was possible because it was aimed at the connecting part, not the part covered with armor.

Kee-e-e-e!

A desperate scream resounded throughout the cave.

Now, with only one leg, I'm terrified.

Jinhyuk pulled out his sword and widened the distance slightly.

Didn't you just care that you were a human? So, the kid didn't lose a leg.

There are definitely some really strong guys like this.

They look down on their opponents and get ripped off, and then they get hit one by one in reverse.

Keehee.

The Giant Mentis faltered and stepped back.

He growled low, looking at his amputated legs dripping with body fluids.

But it was only for a short time.

Honey!

The severed leg sprouted again.

...just to make you speechless.

This isn't a piccolo. Each time it was cut, it grew.

Jinhyuk quickly took a stance.

come.

kwaang!

With the sound of sprinting from the ground, the Giant Mentis leaped again.

Claws that draw arcs.

'This .'

no doubt

At first glance, it doesn't look like much, but there were white spots on his toenails.

The sword wouldn't be able to withstand it if it collided as it is.

if so.

Boo-woong!

Jinhyuk moved his head to avoid the attack.

A knife that ran through your hair.

Boo Woong! Boo woo woo!

The subsequent attacks also split the air.

it's never slow

As the battle continued, it began to receive the resilience characteristic of insects, and also received the Great War buff.

Because of this, the claws of the current Giant Mentis were so fast that it was difficult to discern them with the naked eye.

Nevertheless, Jinhyuk brushed it all off by a single sheet of paper.

As if riding a rhythm, with a unique movement.

'After all, a song is a trot.'

From the time the battle started, a song was playing in Jinhyuk's head.

-My love for you is unconditional and unconditional! Cross the Pacific Ocean! Cross the Atlantic Ocean!

Thick tone and addictive melody.

Whenever I was fighting these underground insects, I memorized the timing of the attack according to this rhythm.

Miraculously, whenever an attack aimed at a vital point came, he could slowly waste his opponent's stamina by avoiding it according to this sense of rhythm.

'How can this be better than before?'

No, really.

In the past, there was sometimes a mistake or two, but now there are no minor mistakes.

In the almost perfect movement, Jinhyuk felt even his rapid breathing enjoyable.

Boo Woong!

Boo-woong!

As time went on, the attack speed gradually slowed down.

The appearance of the claws began to vaguely show.

'great. At this point... .'

Jinhyuk held the dagger in reverse.

Last dodging the attack coming from the top.

Boo woo woo!

Aim for an empty gap!

I took a picture of the Giant Mentis' hind legs with maximum force.

Whoops! Whoops! Whoops! Whoops!

A clean blow aimed at the tendon.

Jinhyeok, who gave him four bee stings in an instant, slowly opened the distance again.

Keeek!

kuung!

The giant mentees were scattered all over the place.

Of course, it wasn't fatal.

After all, the wound will heal anyway.

'But the scars left in my heart last a lifetime.'

Jinhyuk staggered and stood in front of the Giant Mentis who was about to stand up.

Then he started repeating sitting down and getting up.

Once, twice, three times... .

Kieek!

When the angry Giant Mentis gets up again, defeat them.

He immediately repeated the same action.

Once, twice, three times.

The point here is that you never make a difficult expression.

A relaxed atmosphere and a lightly raised corner of the mouth.

Finally, even the expression 'You won't be able to defeat me even after a hundred years pass'.

It felt like my thighs were going to explode, but that's okay.

Because this moment of insulting a strong opponent is the reason why the deceased exists in this world.

Hey, how the hell did this happen!

Anubis let out a scream stained with anger and astonishment.

A fight that is certain of an overwhelming victory is going in the opposite direction, so it is inevitable.

It was hard for Elise to believe this situation as well.

I knew it was strong, but it's supposed to be like this...

He was a special person from the first time we met.

Admit it.

Even Belus, who was the best among his clan, struggled and was defeated in the end.

However, it was a time when all abilities could be used in the corridor.

Now that the nerf and unique abilities and skills are sealed, it's a completely different kind of story.

'To play with your opponents only with your senses and reflexes.'

Alice swallowed dry saliva.

It was an unbelievable sight.

What's more, isn't the opponent Anubis' designated opponent?

It was like crazy to have so much leeway against it.

In Alice's eyes, even at this moment, Jinhyuk was repeating sitting and getting up in front of the Giant Mentis.

'Really, it might be possible with that guy.'

The fall of the Ataraxia family and the hatred of the six families that caused it.

perhaps .

really maybe.

Maybe one person can fulfill that longing.

pounding! pounding! pounding!

Alice's heart began to beat quietly.

Anticipation and excitement, and a sense of exaltation beyond it, spread throughout the body.

And right then.

The legs of the Giant Mentis, which were neatly cut, soared high into the sky.

poop.

Jinhyuk wiped the body fluid from the dagger to the floor.

'great.'

With this, both claws that were proud of were removed.

Kee, Kee...

The Giant Mentis hesitated and backed away.

This is a rare sight for insect-type beasts with extremely high belligerent properties.

why? Can you stop flirting now?

Didn't you like hunting?

You've been running rampantly and with such a high momentum all this time, are you going to quit already?

Of course, I understand.

Because hunting is more fun to chase than to be chased.

But this time it's the hunter's turn to be the prey.

What are you doing! Don't back down, fight! Fight back!

Anubis raised her voice.

Feeling frustrated, he hit his chest with his fist.

However, the Giant Mentis, who had already been completely terrified, did not listen to their master's orders.

What are you doing? You have to run fast.

Jinhyuk put the dagger on his shoulder.

Then she put her lips together and started counting from ten.

run away as far as possible

It won't be easy though.
