Auction House of the Gods (2)
thud! thud! thud!
The footsteps gradually grew louder.
There was a roar that seemed to shake the entire auction house.
It was a man with a height of 5 meters who appeared soon after.
A muscular build and a half-naked body.
A feeling of intimidation emanating from his thick beard weighed on his whole body.
there's no way you don't know
How could you not know?
A great hero called the strongest warrior in Greek mythology.
'I thought, at best, I'd send my minions to run a proxy auction... .'
Apparently, this auction is bigger than expected.
If only such a giant came to this place.
thud!
footsteps stopped.
"Khahaha! We finally met. I was skeptical when I said that the one-eyed old man would come here, but it was worthwhile to come to this stupid place."
Finally, Hercules, standing in front of Jinhyuk, chuckled and burst into laughter.
"Are you saying you came all the way here to see me?"
"Yes. I don't believe in prophecies, but I believe in what I see with my own eyes."
Hercules raised his finger and pointed to Jinhyuk.
"Feeding a bastard on the 50th floor was quite a sight to behold. To be honest, I never imagined I would survive that way."
The introduction is finished.
The gist came out.
"I already know the toothless Nordics have approached. I don't know what they're suggesting, but they're sunken ships."
Loki and Thor.
It seems that the two divinities and this one have already entered the Greek side.
After all, if you're second in information, there's Hermes you'd be embarrassed about.
"Are you saying that it would be a loss if we worked together?"
"That's right. If you're going to climb the tower, wouldn't it be good for you to be with a strong force?"
After Odin, the Nordic Supreme God, lost his crown, the influence of the Nordic divinities fell to the ground.
In fact, the Greek divinities were openly invading Odin's realm.
It was also an open secret that several large and small battles took place.
'Certainly, Christ is a force with his own charm. If I make a choice, I'll do my best to serve as a back-up ship.'
At least in attacking the late 30s and early 40s of the tower, it must boast excellent efficiency.
But why?
Jinhyuk did not accept the proposal of the other party hastily.
Because there was a reason they should never have anything to do with Greece.
'These guys are more sinister than the demon world guys.'
Tosagupin.
It was the iron rule of the Greek divinities to always dispose of the hunting dog after the hunt.
I didn't want to repeat that mistake this time because I had memories of going through a lot of hardship in the past because I didn't know that.
"Hmm. It's too important to do right now. Let's take some time and think about it slowly."
"I'm sorry, but I need to get an answer now. What I want is because I have a personality that needs to be resolved right away."
"Then I'm sorry, but I have to decline."
At Jinhyuk's expression of intent, Hercules' eyebrows curve backwards.
"Are you serious about that ?"
"I'm here to enjoy the auction purely today. I don't want to choose which faction to join."
Jinhyuk politely put his hands together as if he was really sorry.
Usually, it's normal to have to get out of this on your own.
of course.
Normally, it just means that.
"That's it's a pity."
For the great hero who does not measure back and forth, there was no option of rejection.
Boo woo woo!
Variables that might become annoying enemies should be trampled down from the cotyledon.
That was the standard that Hercules divided his enemies from his allies.
Fists crossed with great speed.
A blow full of life.
Dangerous.
The moment I thought so,
Jinhyuk also built a body that can react to the opponent.
[The unique ability 'Tombgrave's Right Arm' is activated!]
A completely changed right arm.
A fist that flew toward the face and an arm outstretched to defend it collided head-on.
Aww!
A huge shock wave rang out.
"Huh?"
Hercules' eyes fluttered visibly.
It is a face that he could not even imagine that a human could stop his attack.
However, Jinhyuk was also embarrassed.
'You've become really strong.'
How could you endure the blow of Hercules even for a moment?
He was even surprised by himself.
It was because it was unimaginable to face divinities at a time when the Tower of Trials appeared less than two years ago.
[Gap stats are activated to the maximum!]
kukukuku!
The sight of a much smaller hand clasping a giant fist was grotesque.
However, it was only for a while.
pushed
At least not yet... .
A head-to-head match with a higher divinity was impossible.
Fatigue from the battle with Shub Nigurus also played a role.
" "
Jinhyeok bit his molars softly.
A few seconds at most.
Endurance is the limit.
"Is the idea that you won't come under us still hasn't changed?"
"Again, I don't work with unlucky people. Most of all, I have no hobbies under anyone else."
"Isn't it? It's pretty short for a will."
A thick tendon protruded from Hercules' arm.
But right then.
Hwaaak!
A faint green gas was scattered.
"Aww!"
A scream filled with pain erupted from Hercules' mouth.
His hastily step backwards didn't suit his size at all.
"You damn bastard...! Dare you spray me with poison!?"
A unique blend of 'Cheonpox' and 'Black Tears'.
The only trauma Hercules had was poison.
"Don't you know that obsessive men are not attractive?
"I'm going to tear it apart and kill it!"
Hercules let out a roar filled with anger.
Quad Duck!
I wondered if the marble ground would crack like a tortoise shell... .
kwaang!
Suddenly, his body bounced off like a bullet.
No, I was trying to get out.
Someone grabbed Hercules' wrist before his feet could fall off the ground.
"How dare you stop me! What kind of bastard are you?"
"A person who is said to be one of the greatest divinities in Greece did he lose his sanity not only because he was hit by a player?"
"You !?"
Hercules stopped moving.
No matter how ruthless he was, he was a great hero, but this time he had no choice but to fold it.
Because the opponent was also the strongest divinity body covering a single myth.
Jin-hyeok, who was in a fighting stance, was also staring intently at the newly-appearing opponent.
Here, another giant appeared.
'Did the faction holding the crown also participate in the auction?'
The demon world once had the crown, but now it has been taken away.
And the subject .
It is because of the existence in front of you.
The word 'sacred' is often used, but I wonder if there is anything else that fits so well.
Representatives who carry out and execute the will of God.
One of the powerful divinities in itself stood in front of Jinhyuk.
"Hello. Jinhyuk Kang player. I've been wanting to see you for a long time, but I'm finally able to see you."
The beautiful woman smiled brightly.
Long blonde hair tied to one side.
The body was thin as if it were about to break, but the mana flowing out was hard to fathom the end.
Archangel Gabriel.
One of the four great angels, and a member of the giant power 'Eden' that rules the 44th floor of the Tower of Trials.
Naturally, quite a few boss monsters were also beings with the power to put them to sleep with a single blow.
"I came here just to see if anyone doesn't know that today's main auction has been canceled, and I'm glad I did. Thanks to that, I was able to prevent a terrible thing."
"There won't be an auction today. What do you mean? The nymph who was talking about Setilda or something outside never said that before?"
Hercules asked immediately.
"The small and medium-sized auctions with delegated representatives of the divinities will proceed as scheduled."
but.
"The main auction has been pushed back two days, because one of the new entries is so precious."
"Maybe, 'that's'"
"Are you coming out?"
"Yes. So, please don't lose your strength, Hercules-sama, and die and gather enough funds. We don't want an auction that ends in vain either."
Gabriel laughed softly.
And he opened his mouth to Jinhyuk.
"I will see player Jinhyuk Kang again in two days. At that time, you will probably meet many divinities and factions and be able to choose a faction on good terms. Of course, I want you to know that our 'Eden' is also showing interest."
As always, keep politeness with a pleasant smile.
Perhaps this is a basic trait possessed by angels.
two days later.
Looks like some pretty interesting things are going to happen.
Because I had a rough idea of what it would be like to be up for auction.
"Okay. I guess I'll have to go back to this today."
Jinhyuk nodded his head.
[Amidst a wave of condolences around the world .]
[It is known that the presidents and guilds of each country personally thanked player Kang Jin-hyuk, the greatest contributor to this work.]
[This is the breaking news that 'Goin-Mul Corporation', where player Jin-Hyeok Kang is the master, has been included in the world's eight largest guilds!]
The pouring of articles heated up the media and the Internet every day.
There have been a few terrible outbreaks before, but this is the first time I've ever been so desperate.
"Hey. That's pretty good. But, why isn't there a story about Jim?"
Elise asked with her eyes twinkling.
"Um. There is, but most of the posts from the Strange fan club. How. Can I show you some of these?"
At first glance, there are many things that harm the dignity of vampires.
Wouldn't that be better than indifference?
"It is, it is! Jim will enjoy a hobby worthy of his noble dignity."
"A hobby? Do you know how to do hobbies besides eating and sleeping?"
"Ahem. Don't be surprised after seeing it. Humans do it a lot too."
"Hmm. It's very suspicious..."
Jinhyuk entered Alice's room with a questionable face.
Fake cobwebs and skulls. A room with dimly lit candles caught my eye.
Anyway, the taste is amazing once in a while.
"I was watching a movie."
Elise pointed to the video on her tablet.
uhm this... ?
a movie you know.
Twilight.
It is a masterpiece of fantasy-style romance with vampires and werewolves.
"Hey. Do you see this too?"
"Yes. But the more I watch this movie, the worse I feel."
"Huh?"
no it's sweet nice or
It is normal to have such a feeling, but why did the feeling of being in a bad mood jump out?
The reason was soon revealed.
"Dare you, werewolves attacking noble races. It was something I never dared to imagine when I was a lord! What the hell did the lords over there do to let the situation become like this!"
As if in anger, Elise slammed the table with a small fist.
It's stupid to expect a normal reaction from this stupid vampire.
"If you say that you don't even agree with me, that's all, and get ready to leave."
"Are you going out?"
"It's been a long time since I've had a break, are you going to stay at home all day?"
You have two days until the auction house reopens.
Going to the 19th floor will be after that.
So until then.
I plan to release the accumulated fatigue to my heart's content.
"Oh oh oh oh! Of course I'll go... No. Well, if the contractor earnestly begs to go with him, there's nothing he can't do. Noble races can't easily refuse a request."
Alice jumped out of bed and tried to get up, trying to control her expression.
