CH 346

The Great Powers of the Upper Levels (4)

Philosopher's stone.

By itself, it is close to an all-rounder, and the things that can be done using it are limitless.

Literally, to alchemists, it is a holy relic called the crystal of a dream.

and.

Jinhyuk made a replica of it for the auction of this round.

'I really did go through a bit of high school.'

How to make Philosopher's stone in the first place is advanced information that only a few alchemists know.

Needless to say, there were a lot of ingredients to prepare.

'It would not have been possible without the voluntary help of everyone.'

Jinhyuk remembered the past, even briefly.

Blacksmith Orun also bullied Grandpa... He also robbed Alice's treasury.

He had a truly spectacular time as he ordered the spirit beasts to gather materials from various places inside the tower.

'The effect is... Are you sure.'

The red liquid on his wrist shone softly.

As the sweet scent rose, the homunculus' pupils began to tremble sharply.

He felt the same energy as his source.

bonding.

Yes.

This bond is absolutely necessary to gain obedience from the first homunculus.

The rest of the divinities failed because they tried to achieve it with their own strength, but Jinhyuk saw exactly what the host wanted.

Now all that's left is... .

It's just the right combination of bonding and skill.

"Whoa..."

Jinhyuk took a deep breath.

The mana in his body circulated gently, and the blades of his fangs were covered in blue.

[The unique ability 'Heavenly Demon' is activated!]

Moment.

kukuku kuk kook!

A great energy surged.

The Heavenly Demon in its heyday is one of the absolutes that even the divinities could not take care of.

Therefore, his native Mugong was enough to arouse awe by itself.

"I knew that you were active in Moorim but did you mean that you also learned the new Heavenly Demon?"

"But that's it. The unique Holy Spear didn't work at all, but even if it's a Heavenly Demon god, the result doesn't change."

"It's true. No matter how much you inherited Mugong from the Heavenly Demon, considering the period of time, your status will not be high."

The divinities each uttered a word.

Most were negative.

It's a matter of course.

It was unmistakable that Jinhyeok was an excellent player, but that was within the scope limited to that level.

Compared to the apostles they had chosen and chosen, they could not say that I was exceptional.

However.

A few of the few divinities had completely opposite ideas.

"Huh."

The corners of Beliel's lips went up.

" "

" "

Thor and Loki, who have been representing Northern Europe, also observed Jinhyeok with careful eyes.

"Heh. There's no way that terrifying bastard can't handle just one of those things."

Anubis also snorted.

They are all divinities who have experienced Jinhyuk directly or have many memories.

At least they believed something was going to happen.

The air gradually tightens.

It was Jinhyuk who stopped the start.

Heavenly Demon reigns.

kwaang!

With deep footprints on the ground. Jinhyuk's body disappeared like the wind.

"...!"

The homunculus immediately swung the spear.

A pair of spears drew a pinwheel, as it has always been.

Kaka Kaka!

The fangs approached from the side were thrown away.

Again, it's not that hard.

'Given two or three fakes, it's not worth it.'

Jinhyuk raised the new Heavenly Demon even more.

fault!

I wondered if I could hear the sound of the ground rubbing.

Suddenly, Jinhyuk appeared from the other side.

'Black Heaven Demon Hwanggong (黑天魔皇功)'.

'The first ceremony (第一式).'

'The Black Ring of Heukryun Rock'!

Aww!

A blow aimed at the back.

However, the homunculus blew that attack away.

As if he had deflected the unique holy lance of Medesus. Instead of receiving a strong attack head-on, he adhered to the method of dispersing the power.

"Yeah, I knew it was going to be like that."

"I'll just delay the time and wait for the host to stop."

"It's really tough. There are dolls that dodge attacks so well."

The negative reaction soon solidified into conviction.

The fight is over.

But.

Even while everyone was arguing, Jinhyuk just caught a glimpse of something in the previous battle.

'great.'

Although it is an imitation, the scent emanating from the 'Philosopher's Stone' stimulates the homunculus.

microscopically. The opponent was slow to react.

A sensation from your fingertips.

A little bit faster... .

If you sharpen it a little more.

[The unique ability 'High-Speed Sword' is activated!]

[The unique ability 'Shadow Kill (陰影亟殺)' is activated!]

kwaang!

Kaka Kaka!

Jinhyuk swung his fangs all over the place.

Riding through the shadows and shadows, the attack speed due to the high-speed sword in it was doubled faster.

Now, the trajectory of the dagger is to the point of blurring it.

" Eww."

A short moan escaped the mouth of the homunculus, who was frantically defending the attack.

It is now!

The point where the field of view and the field of view intersect.

Jinhyuk lowered the tempo of his attack by one level.

'Glacier modeling'

'Bingok Kaleidoscope'

Pants!

A thin layer of frost began to rise along the ground.

The cold dulled the senses. As the body temperature dropped, the body began to hallucinate.

The small mouth of the homunculus opened blankly.

"Ah !"

A brief moan turned into a deep groan.

He slowly raised his hand as if he had been enchanted by the splendid and beautiful sight he had seen for the first time in his life.

[The 'Imitated Philosopher's Stone' deepens the bond with the target.]

['Communication ability' is activated!]

[The unique ability 'Mentra Timing' is activated!]

Successive status windows.

The abilities he had accumulated so far shone.

"iced coffee ."

The agitation of the homunculus grew even greater.

The stamina was exhausted due to the continuous battle. A situation in which the mind is confused with various communicative abilities.

'Bingok Kaleidoscope' as a point of fire

Being trapped inside, you will have no choice but to be confused.

And the gap .

Jinhyuk digs right into it.

tuk.

The tip of the fangs touched the homunculus' neck.

A drop of red liquid from Philosopher's stone ran down his throat.

The two's eyes met face-to-face.

Blue eyes that seemed to be sucked into Jinhyuk turned towards him.

"I can't roast or boil things with verbose words."

I'd like to give you the best treatment. I can't say that I'll give you a position beyond a doll if you join our forces.

"But I don't want to force you to obey by threatening."

There is no such thing as loyalty to the obedience that you simply take and press.

Even if the subject is an emotionless being.

"But, I can promise you one thing. At least if you're with me, I won't ever use you as a scumbag on my side."

Jinhyuk quietly retrieved the sword that touched his neck.

There was no rejection response.

This would mean positive.

In fact, the mana emitted from the homunculus had completely disappeared.

"From today on, I am your master."

"master."

The homunculus carefully pondered the words.

tuk.

That's when my knees touched the ground.

Blue hair ran gently down her neck.

With that, the owner of the homunculus was determined.

The inside of the auction house was turned upside down by Jinhyuk and Homunculus.

I thought someone would take the homunculus, but it was because I never imagined that it would be a player.

"Come on. Great divinities. The auction is over. The organizers don't want any more fuss, so why don't you just walk away?"

If the host didn't stop him at the right time, all the divinity might eat Jinhyeok alive.

So, this was a huge event.

When the organizers said that the auction had ended, everyone withdrew as if regretful.

So a little quiet place.

Where the divinities have disappeared, only the apostles who follow them remain.

Medesus, who had been representing Olympus, approached Jinhyuk.

"...this is the first time I've ever talked to him in person. I'm Medesus, a resident who wore Blessing to Hermes and became his apostle."

A ranker with a unique holy spear.

It's quite refreshing to see them up close.

Originally, this guy had to reach the second half of the 20th floor to have a chance to meet him once or twice.

"I was very impressed with what happened a while ago. To be honest, I didn't expect such a talented person to climb the tower from below the middle class."

From the point of view of the apostles, the current players are youngsters who have tasted the tower.

Compared to them, it means that they still have 10 more years to roll before they can have a conversation.

"There are quite a few talented people down there. Besides me."

"Yeah. I'm going to pay attention to the lower part from now on. In that sense... can you tell me what floor of the tower you are staying on?"

"The order was a little bit twisted, but I'm going to the 19th floor this time."

"It's on the 19th floor..."

Medesus nodded slightly.

"It must have been a long way before we met again. Hurry up and come up. I look forward to the day we will fight together on the upper floors of the tower someday."

"Yeah. I don't know if it will be an enemy or an ally, but I'll be looking forward to it."

Building a relationship with Medesus will surely come in handy in the future.

All the work at the auction house was finished with a brief greeting.

It was only hours later that he returned to reality.

Beriel This leech-like bastard was biting and drooping like crazy, and I thought I was going to die from pulling it off.

"Sit down in moderation. First of all, it's a place I'm using as my home outside the tower. Don't worry about the cost of staying outside the tower, as I got it from Alice's wallet."

"all right."

The homunculus looked around the hotel room and sat down on the sofa.

'First, let's check how much it is.'

Jinhyuk activated 'Eyes of Gluttony' and checked the status window of the homunculus.

crazy .

What kind of absurd specs do you have?

Even though it was made fresh now, the base level is close to 200.

However, the surprising thing was not simply because the basic specifications were high.

'The sage's Blessing stat is a whopping 368.'

The highest stat that can only be obtained by clearing special conditions such as gaps or adaptive.

He was able to open even his own holy spear, so the bonanza really rolled in.

Jinhyuk barely swallowed the cheers that erupted.

At the same time, I wanted to give something for this lucky lump.

"You don't have a name right now? A name. That the word that calls you."

"Your name you mean? In my original place, they called me Homunculus."

"Hmm. Yeah? You can't keep calling me like that, so I'll give you a proper name. Even from this point of view, my naming sense is amazing."

"It would be an honor to be a Primary God with any name."

The homunculus nodded quickly in a slightly recalled voice.

Hmm. Let's see.

What name should I give it so that I can remember it for a long time?
