CH 304

. Pathway to Luoyang (2)

pounding! pounding! pounding!

I waited too long.

It seems that decades have passed since the completion of this weapon.

'at Las Can you check it out?'

At the same time, Ma Hye-ryang is not present.

As a rule of thumb, it will take a long time to get back here.

if so .

Jinhyuk took out the sword he had received from Orun.

huuuuuuoooooooooooooooooooo

The subspace door opens... .

A dazzling blade revealed itself.

[Many items were used as materials for enhancement!]

[The relic that slashed the Demonic Dragon awakens!]

[[Dragon Killer Sword, 'Balmung']

- Purple Grade]

Attack power: 321,700

Weight: 105kg

Durability: 550,000 / 550,000

Description: It is one of the most powerful offensive weapons among the relics that exist below the 49th floor. A single blow can slash the Dragon scale, and just holding it in your hand increases all stats by 10% (increases mana consumption).

[Special Active 'Reproduction of Myth': You can possess the power of the great hero Siegfried in the myth. However, the power that can be reproduced varies according to the caster's ability and growth value, and all mana possessed immediately after use is consumed.]

There were several changes to the balmung after the repair.

First, as the durability was fully recovered, the weight was increased from 37kg to 105kg.

Kuk... .

You can feel the heavy feel along both hands.

Even though the strength stat was 109, the weight of 105 kg was difficult to handle.

'No, it might feel heavier because of the pressure of being a top-notch relic.'

sure thing is

All of this is a pleasant feeling of weight.

Even the special skill attached to the weapon itself had the power to reproduce the life story of the hero.

Absolutely deceptive effect.

I knew better than anyone that I couldn't, but... .

'I can't stand it... .'

Fingers tingle

In my mind, I wanted to try it right now.

Wow... that's really cool. It's the first time I've seen something like this.

Even Alice exclaimed with her eyes wide open.

Yes. It's the first time I've seen a weapon of this level.

To make this, even the materials alone were put in beyond imagination.

When I first went to get Balmung, I amplified the 'collapse accelerator' I bought at the coin exchange with 'intermediate purification stone' and 'whisper of steel'.

Through that, I finished the preparations below to strengthen the balmung.

After that, Orun used all his skills to use 'Armorbreaker' and 'Gray Heart' as sacrifices.

I don't know, but Orun must have been overworked for the past few days without sleeping properly in order to raise the indigo rank to the purple rank.

How do you look okay?

Huh.

Alice nodded with a serious face.

give it to me.

what?

It's a pretty sword, so I think it'll fit in my collection.

Hearing such an absurd sound makes me speechless. I guess that's just what we're talking about in this situation.

Will the retriever do some flips if he hears this?

uhm.

I think this will suffice for you.

Orun sent the leftovers of the Armor Breaker with him, but he did well not to throw it away.

A bare wire in the shape of a twig was clasped in Elise's hand.

" hoy?"

And while Elise stared blankly at the branches.

Jinhyuk activated his personal status window.

T-tiring!

skill: There are too many types, so it will switch to summary state.

I got to level 7 after dealing with Abigail... .

As a householder, the experience it gives is huge.

Even though my level was 3 digits, I went up 7 levels at once.

I'll invest everything in mana.

If you consider Balmung's mana consumption, you have to pay more attention to mana stats.

[mana rises from 273 294!]

[Additionally, there are new items stored in the subspace inventory.]

[Are you sure you want to?]

There were only the items that were obtained just before the loss of memory were not formidable.

What caught my eye the most was the weapon Abigail used.

The strongest magic Noble Phantasm that symbolizes the Levisita family.

'Scythe of the Wraith Tree'.

It is a relic that shows overwhelming power in using melee-type attacks as well as blood-based magic.

I couldn't even imagine how great synergy would be if it was used together with Elise's ability through universal sharing.

'I knew the drop rate was 0%, not an atrocity level... Reading skill is a real scam.'

Thanks to the effect of dropping the best, I was able to obtain a relic that I could not even dream of in the past.

But that's when Jinhyuk was trying to check the scythe.

...!

It was caught that Ma Hye-ryang was returning at a fast pace due to Jin-hyeok's sense of urgency.

'I'll have to check the rest of the items later.'

Jinhyuk closed the status window again.

Not long after that, Ma Hye-ryang, who had finished chores, approached from the front.

There were a few dangerous ones, but I took care of them properly.

A smiling face with a friendly smile is really detestable.

All the more because I know what I'm going to do.

Jinhyuk's eyes narrowed.

In Ma Hye-ryang's sleeve, I could see something vaguely wriggling.

A creature that is also feared among the Moorim people.

That's 'solitude'.

'After all, I was trying to get the loneliness that lives in this passage.'

yin and yang.

This pair of parasites has a rather unique mechanism. When you feed a yanggo to a victim, it immediately takes place in the victim's brain.

'In case of disobeying or betraying orders, it immediately releases an unbearable nerve poison.'

It is not an area that can be sustained by human will.

Because it was the power of this loneliness that made even the warriors who had trained all their lives betray their own clan.

Furthermore.

The loneliness that is corrected in this place where there is a lot of negative energy will be even more effective.

Ma Hye-ryang was intentionally guiding me to this place to feed her loneliness.

'Heh heh. Even if they are quite talented, they are nothing more than prey for me since they came here. I'm already excited at the thought of a kid going to tremble.'

Ma Hye-ryang kept a sinister smile inside.

This passage was originally intended to evacuate the imperial family when an enemy invaded the imperial palace.

In an emergency situation, the traps did not work, so the royal family could come and go safely, but in peacetime like now, lethal traps operated in a lot.

Just to prevent anyone with bad thoughts from coming in.

Of course, Ma Hye-ryang had grasped all the traps in this place as if it were her own bedroom.

'No matter how flying and crawling, if you aim for a time to avoid traps, you will inevitably end up in loneliness.'

aka double trap.

Through this method, more than ten masters have been subjugated to the power of Heavenly Demon Protestantism.

'By the way, why does Daeju put so much effort into one guy who came from outside the tower?

After thinking for a while, Ma Hye-ryang shook her head.

It is not necessary for those below to know such things.

His mission is to include factors and internal work to the end.

The secret to longevity is to do what you are asked to do without questioning your work. Ma Hye-ryang was realizing it through long experience.

and sooner or later.

The three arrived at the first trap.

Ma Hye-ryang slowly took off her shichimi and slowed her steps.

Exactly half and half slower.

You have to aim for the moment when the trap is triggered.

' caught!'

I saw Jinhyuk stepping in the place where iron skewers protrude from under his feet.

Whoops.

Ma Hye-ryang instinctively tried to blow her body, but barely stopped.

Uh, what...?

The trap was not triggered.

Seeing Jinhyuk moving forward so calmly, a sigh of incredulity came out of Ma Hye-ryang's mouth.

Is something wrong?

I can't... .

Ma Hye-ryang approached the place Jin-hyuk had passed.

And carefully put the weight on your feet.

Cheol-kun !

With the sound of Gyeokcheol moving, I could feel the soles of my feet.

The trap is working properly.

'danger Sun!'

should be avoided immediately.

By the way.

I'm not following you, what are you doing?

Jinhyuk tapped Ma Hye-ryang's shoulder.

At the very least, it's time to run away.

Whoops!

Red blood gushed out from the skewer that dug into the back of his foot.

Aww!

A scream erupted from his mouth.

What, what's this again? Is it okay? Why did you get hit without avoiding it?

Hey... damn it. You... no, your brother... is holding you by the shoulder, what are you going to do to avoid it!

No, of course I said that I had removed the trap, so I thought it was okay. Oh my. The instep of this has turned into a complete rag. What should I do because I'm sorry.

Jinhyuk clicked his tongue as if he was sincerely sorry.

No matter how bloody it looked, it seemed difficult to walk properly.

Okay. All right. Let's quickly go on our way.

Would you like me to support you?

Because I don't need it!

Ma Hye-ryang groaned.

It seemed that the ties of reason had already been severed due to anger.

'Even if you were lucky the first time, there is no next time.'

Next time, I'll definitely finish the job.

Ma Hye Liang was limp and walked forward.

After going a little further inside, we reached the second trap.

nine in total.

The passages that stretched out like anthills welcomed everyone.

I also caught my eye that the amulets painted in the same color as the soil were cleverly hidden.

There are a lot of passageways. Do you know where to go?

Anywhere is fine. I can smell the sweet smell of blood over there, I can't stand it.

Hey.

"Not but oh my. I'm so scared of the dark passageways. The sky. Will you protect me?"

Elise trembled and hung on Jinhyuk's arm.

It's absurd to be chirping.

Guess I'll never let this guy act again.

I know the location. Instead, my legs are like this, so I can't go first. My brother will go ahead. If you follow the third aisle, you will soon reach Luoyang.

So what.

Jinhyuk took the lead.

Exactly towards the passageway with the cliff entrance.

And Elise followed closely behind.

finally got it

This time, you can definitely make a gap.

No matter how many flying fish you are, you will not be able to protect your weak fiancé and your body at the same time.

Ma Hye-ryang gritted her teeth and prepared to bring out the loneliness once more.

When your opponent loses his balance and clings to a cliff, that's the best chance to feed his loneliness.

However.

jerk.

Again, Jinhyuk stopped right before the activation of Jinbeop.

a little bit.

I only had to go 1 inch (3cm) further.

In any case, it stopped like a lie right before that.

"Aren't you are you going?"

Wait a minute. My leg hurts a little after walking for a long time.

" you have to hurry to get there before sunrise."

My head says it understands, but my legs don't listen. What? If I take one more step, there's going to be a strike?

can't

No choice but to push him from behind while babbling.

Ma Hye-ryang slowly approached the back of Jin-hyeok, who was having a conversation with her leg.

And he stretched out his hands relentlessly.

But, just before the palm touches the back.

Jinhyuk's figure disappeared.

Oh, my waist. Let's sit down for a little bit... No, why are you here?

Ahhhhh!

kwaaang!

Ma Hye-ryang, who fell off the cliff, trembled all over.

Fortunately, his life was saved.

Fortunately, it was deep inside and survived. If I was an ordinary person, my whole body would have turned to powder.

However.

The pain that stabbed all over his body was unavoidable.

"Uh uh "

A deep moan escaped Mae Hye-ryang's mouth.

Can't it be like this without luck?

Even if something went wrong, it was definitely wrong.

Are you okay? It looks like a lot of pain... isn't it seriously injured?

"It's okay does it look okay? You rotten bastard huh?"

Such a thought ran through Ma Hye-ryang's mind.

The figure of Jinhyuk with a worried face up there.

He seems to be smiling faintly for some reason.
