CH 132

. Hounds of the Decassus (1)

Your guy must be a guy named Kang Jin-hyuk.

You look pretty smooth. Besides, heh. What is this? That guy. Why does the blood smell so sweet?

There was a contrast between the cold voice and the excited voice.

Appearing among the Ice Trolls was a pair of men and women with dazzling white hair and red eyes.

Needless to say, it was obvious who they were.

Vampire's bloodline.

To be precise, the blood relatives of the Decasus family that Melena mentioned at the shareholders' meeting a while ago must have been.

Burr... !

Braham's ring trembled violently.

[Don't dry it! Those children... ! Decass of Decasus! I'm going to go out and kill them all!]

It's sealed, so damn it. If it wasn't for it, Elise would have run out right away.

However, if Elise is exported from here, the variable becomes too large.

If the seal was loose enough to be able to fight with blood relatives, mana consumption would increase out of control.

'Until I know how prepared they are, it's better for me to deal directly with Elise than to let them go.'

If it's a head-to-head match, it's not a problem.

However, if the battle is prolonged or even escape from the other side, it will be a pain in the ass.

Mana should be saved as much as possible.

Jinhyuk slowly looked up and down the two of them.

'Eye of Gluttony' had relatively low mana consumption, but even that could not be used carelessly.

In particular, the greater or stronger the level gap with the opponent, the higher the required mana value.

However, since we have to understand the other person's information, we have no choice but to use it at all.

'Which one do you want to see... .'

The relatively strong and the less powerful.

Which side can be copied and which side is not.

The worries didn't last long.

Jinhyuk chose the male side.

'Eye of Gluttony' penetrated the status window.

Name: Riorda Vertion

Gender: Male

Age: 1082

Level: 108

Strength 32 Dexterity 36 Stamina 33 mana 45 Dark Dou Qi 50

Stat Points you have: 0

Unique Ability: Blood Cancel

skill: Lv16 'Blood Spear', Lv16 'Blood Jade', Lv15 'Blood Shield', Lv15 'Memorize Teleport', Lv15 'Dark Dou Qi', Lv14 'mana Vampire'

[Copy condition: If you are a vampire, you must suck blood to taste! If you insert a straw around your opponent's neck and consume more than 100mg of blood, you will be able to copy the opponent's unique ability.]

[If you speak 4 or more death flag lines and survive, you will be able to copy one of your opponent's skills. However, lines are recognized only when they fit the situation, and each time you say each line, your unique ability or skill is sealed one by one. (Time limit: 96h:00m:00s)]

Damn it.

Jinhyuk, who was reading the status window, wrinkled his face.

It was good to get some rough information, but the copying conditions got worse again.

How did this happen that more and more things that are beyond your imagination are popping up?

'I'm not even a vampire. 100mg faster?'

Sometimes the elderly eat deer blood or something like that saying they want to get better, but that's the story of people with a strong stomach.

'I am an ambassador. Above all, the ability to cancel blood through blood is not so desirable.'

Above all else, it is better to bite my tongue and die than to bite the nape of Namjeongnee's neck.

However .

Another copy condition attracted me.

There was one useful skill among the skills that Bertion had.

A skill that is very helpful in melee and long-term battles.

Jinhyuk's eyes narrowed.

'Four death flag lines... .'

It's definitely not easy to spit out those lines while you're in a corner and survive.

Moreover, the condition that a unique ability or skill is randomly sealed every time you say one line is very annoying.

However, I wanted to get 'that skill' at all costs.

That was when Jinhyuk was thinking about it.

Why aren't you answering me? Maybe it's because you're too scared to harden?

Berthion opened his mouth again.

Jinhyeok, who had lost his eyes for a while to check the copying conditions, thought that he had hardened due to fear.

Oh, sorry, I was just checking something for a while. So what did you want to say?

"I asked if your guy was Kang Jin-hyuk."

Well.

Would it work if I called it Cheonyuseong here? To be honest, selling him is the most convenient thing.

Jinhyuk pondered for a moment, then shook his head.

That guy should sell it in moderation. This may come one day on a dark night.

that's right.

Jinhyuk shrugged.

Then the corners of Berthion's mouth went up.

My name is 'Riorda Bertion'. I am a blood relative of the Decasus family. You humans often call us vampires, so this might be more familiar.

Call me Ophelia. I belong to this blunt guy.

The two briefly introduced themselves.

Berthion and Ophelia.

Both of them are much stronger than the Ataraxia clan that I met in the corridor.

Everything from the level and stats each individual possesses to the mana that flows naturally from the body. The comparison itself was impossible.

In the first place, Elise and her kinsmen had weakened due to being exiled for a long time, and the difference in power between the two families was probably a factor.

They are the vampires of the Decasus...

I'm not very surprised.

This isn't the first time I've met a vampire.

in the ring. I'm raising a very vicious vampire.

If normal vampires are mosquitoes, should I say Ellis is an Adidas mosquito with three-color stripes?

He has a stinger that can pierce even jeans, so he is the TOP of the vampire world.

As expected...! You were right that you were hiding a traitor who was exiled in the corridor!

Don't be fooled by what you think is correct. Having prepared this much would mean that you are confident rather than suspicious, where is 'My prediction was right.'

Are you dying with this kind of tone?

...what, what? Yes... you bastard! To whom do you dare now...!

Berthion stuttered heavily.

Is it because of being stabbed in the corner? Or is it just because I haven't had a bite to eat so openly with a human?

The only certainty is that his face, white as white jade, was burning red.

Fufu. You're a bold person. It's sure to taste good.

This time, Ophelia intervened.

Perhaps even more interested than before, his red eyes twinkled.

That look... .

where did you see it

It's like, when I first met Ellis, I was threatening to say that blood was delicious.

Damn, I don't know how these vampires end up treating people like lunch boxes.

How about? If you go with me, I will spare your life.

Ophelia gently stretched out her hand.

Long, slender fingers were in full bloom.

Naturally, if you catch that, it's a limited express train bound for Hell.

Live with a dedicated blood pack. What does this mean?

But wouldn't that be better than dying?

I will politely decline. Personally, I prefer to take things rather than give them.

You'd regret it...

Well. I received a similar offer last time, but it was the other party who regretted it, not me.

The guy who made such a proposal lived in a 1,000-pyeong royal palace, but now he is living in a three-bedroom apartment with a size of 0.01 pyeong. Maybe?

It's a pity... Then I can't. I've been wanting to eat it for a long time, but I have no choice but to end it with a single meal.

Ophelia took a step back.

The atmosphere began to subside little by little.

There was a stillness like the eve of a storm.

Now, if anyone moves, there will be a genocide.

gulp!

Ugh...

shit.

The faces of the players who waited while holding their breath turned black and rotted.

I was so terrified that I couldn't understand what was going on.

The moment the conversation between the two ends. Everyone here instinctively felt it.

that their lives will end in a while.

'I can't live.'

'It's over.'

'Rain, damn it. What kind of monsters are there... .'

The life of a blood relative with a whopping three-digit level was not something that B-class players who had just entered the 7th floor could endure.

Die.

sure to die

Even if Jinhyeok in front of him is an S-class. I couldn't even deal with those monsters.

Because the pressure on his body was heavier than anything he had ever met.

Jinhyuk watched as the ice trolls gradually narrowed the siege.

Then he slowly opened his mouth.

"Before we begin, may I ask you one thing?"

Even if you die soon, you seem to be impatient with questions. Good. Ask me one last time.

Is it your intention to hunt the players of the Dangun Guild sequentially in the forest? Are the patterns engraved on the rocks?

I heard you know a lot about the tower. So I dug a trap.

The better the guy, the more blindly he trusts the information he knows.

Moreover, if the information is thought to be unknown to others, the effect is multiplied several times.

I thought you would come into this forest to get the 'Phoenix Feather'. One of the surest ways to attack this floor is to get that feather.

Berthion spoke calmly.

But, right after coming to this land, you must have felt a strange sense of incongruity. Since the high-level players were wiped out without leaving a trace, you must have thought that something would happen. And to prove that hypothesis, you must have gone to the forest.

If you find the trolls' patterns, that hypothesis will be weighted, and you can make me more vigilant. That's what it means.

Jinhyuk got the backstory.

That's the story. To prove the hypothesis that the Outbreak will happen soon, you'll invite other players to this place. Of course, the time we spend in the forest will also be longer. In the end, we've bought time to completely surround ourselves.

Ah! And you'd better give up the hope that other humans would join. The demons were supposed to take care of that.

Are there no gaps?

It's pretty good. I used a little bit of hair.

I have to admit that the trap is neat.

In addition to that, we formed three coalition teams that included not only the Mines, but also the Ice Trolls, so the members were also incredibly strong.

No matter how strong a ranker is, if he is in a situation like this, he will have no choice but to panic or despair.

But do you know that?

Actually .

I knew you would come in contact with me.

He had already heard all the inside information through Melena.

All about how the Decathus hounds descended down the tower and met Lancelot and traded behind the scenes.

I didn't know exactly where or when.

It was expected that the time would soon be imminent.

More than anything else, traps are meaningful only when the premise that they can kill the opponent is prepared.

Hey, what do you mean?

From thinking that you can defeat me just by being together with the dogs... it means it's a mistake.

at the end of that word.

kukuku kuk kuk!

Mana, who had been suppressed to the limit, was liberated.
