Chapter 74 Clear the 15th Floor
Immediately after defeating the Agent of Purification. His mana was drained and his overworked body trembled, but there was no time to stop.
Because the quest hasn’t been completed yet.
It’s not the time to spread here. Since we managed to catch the agent of purification, we must also complete the hidden quest.
“Compared to him, these guys are easy.”
“To the ark.”
I quickly returned to the village and wiped out the Guardians as if they were slaughtering them.
It’s not that there’s any kind of resentment, it’s because the state of the village isn’t right.
The outskirts of town are scorched. It was about to be pushed all the way to the center.
The situation for guerrilla warfare has already passed, and the undead that can move are blocking the guardians by making a wall with their bodies.
The small agent of purification that was separated earlier was being dealt with by the Creature Priest.
“Kiyi!”
“Ooh!”
There was a hit and a fuss.
Fighting overflowing, we stick straights into each other’s faces.
One shot of you or one shot. I really want to eat some popcorn, but I can’t.
‘Certainly, it’s hard for the auxiliary series to do their best in a head-to-head match.’
Although Creature Priest is 4-star, it is true that if you are unable to command an undead army, you will be pushed back.
The fact that the guy who was supposed to control the undead army from behind came to the fore meant that the situation was just as bad.
I secretly approached the little agent of purification.
The Creature Priest easily gave up his back as if he was distracted.
‘Compared to a big guy, this is about this.’
Perhaps because he was regenerated from a severed foot, he is smaller and has less divine power than the one he killed.
It’s true that it still feels powerful, but if I had to put it that way, it’s closer to a 3-star than a 4-star?
Thinking about it now, I’m really glad.
If I hadn’t dealt with it at once with Frozen Break, I might have been fighting dozens of them.
That’s the past, so let’s pass it.
“hi?”
“Ooh!”
I greeted you warmly and raised my sword.
Cold and mighty holy power.
It hasn’t even been 10 minutes. That the effect of Return of the Dead hadn’t ended.
-Kudeuk!
The gap between the torso and the neck was precisely stabbed.
Quick-frozen body. His body stiffened and his movements gradually stopped.
I couldn’t use Frozen Break again because I ran out of mana.
“Kihyaaaaa!”
I’m not alone now.
The Creature Priest used all sorts of divine magic and beat the little agent of purification, as if he was saddened by what he had been through.
All of them are divine attacks that contain coldness.
The guy whose entire body had already frozen and stopped maneuvering had no choice but to be exposed to the attack as it was.
– Blah blah blah!
It collapsed from the accumulated shock.
I’m sure he’s dead, but I don’t know.
[Fire Bomb (B) Lv. 9]
-Quaaaaaang!
He blasted it until it turned to powder.
Even if you want to play this, you won’t be able to.
Since the molten iron has cooled down, the divine power must have been exhausted.
There are only about 50 Guardians left.
“That’s about it, I’ll finish it soon.”
They’re two-star guys at most.
He swung his sword at the guardian who had come close.
Might cause an explosion.
[Cutting (C) Lv. 1]
-Suddenly!
I want to use my newly acquired skills.
The guardian’s body was neatly cut off with a light diagonal cut.
An upper body sliding along an obliquely cut path.
In the meantime, the core of the guy was revealed.
“Wow!”
Deokchun spat and melted the core.
It only takes 2 seconds to catch one guardian.
2 star or 1 star. It didn’t make much of a difference for me.
“Kiaaa!”
“Oohhh!”
Guardians that have stopped working are piled up to create a mound.
Guardians are rapidly diminishing.
The breathless Undead ran to kill the other guy.
No more victories for them. Only one-sided slaughter remained.
After 10 minutes like that.
“Ah ah ah ah ah!”
“Oohhh!”
“Close up!”
All the Guardians who destroyed the village were destroyed.
The undead army screamed in unison.
A cry that seems to have been drawn from the depths of the heart.
It was rotting here and there, so I couldn’t make out its expression, but it looked like it was crying.
“Kiyaaaaaagh!”
Although it doesn’t look exactly the same, it’s obvious.
A sword with a white blade on one side is not common.
Who the hell is that person?
Why did he show such an illusion before then?
Half impulsively, he reached out to her.
– Woo woo woong
The world has changed quickly.
The bright background was erased and dark ash and clouds covered the sky.
The village was set on fire.
Black ash stained the pure white statue of the Goddess, and blood flowed from the collapsed remains.
Mekki smoke and flames reminiscent of hell.
The fight between the opposing villagers and the holy weapon that overwhelms them has been moved to cut editing.
A soldier engulfed in fire. Ordinary people buried alive in pits. A priest who is put on a pyre and burned at the stake.
It seemed as if someone in the distance, surrounded by flames, was running hastily.
and blackout.
A thick and calm voice came from the darkness that had come as if someone had closed their eyes.
【If I had been called before her, would the result have changed if I had returned just one day earlier?】
A voice resonated directly in my head, just like Kildares had told me the other day.
I was startled and looked back.
-Paaah!
The illusion that enveloped the entire 15th floor disappeared like a mirage.
Even what was there is gone.
Creature Priest and Skeleton Knight Dummy Zombie who fought alongside me. Even the few remaining undead.
A mountain of guardians and agents of purification.
Until the building burned again.
The statue of the goddess, which had regained its original form, was also broken, leaving only the base.
“What is this?”
Had I been possessed by a ghost?
I don’t know anything else, but shouldn’t there be the existing undead?
Maybe Regen? I looked around the village in embarrassment, but there was no sign of a monster anywhere.
A village where even the flames were extinguished. The heated air is cooling like a lie.
[There are no hostile monsters.]
[Clear Hugo Arte’s Nightmare on the 15th floor.]
[Confirm that you have cleared the hidden quest.]
[Additional stats will be granted!]
[Essence of ice will be paid.]
Notifications that appear one after another.
Light shone from the base of the goddess statue that was broken along with him.
A jewel the size of a fingernail that fell as if it had been there originally.
[Essence of Ice]
– One of the treasures of the Church of Ice and Fire.
-Has cold divine power.
-??? (Unable to read the information.)
I looked down at the jewel and put it in the treasure bag.
The Order of Ice and Fire.
Holy Kingdom Hyaltine.
Frostfire Sword.
Essence of fire obtained by hunting the agent of purification.
and.
“The Key to the Hyaltine Relic.”
I was convinced that all of this is connected.
Is this why the luck stat reacted to the frost flame sword when making a bet with Rilka?
“Let’s go up.”
“To that.”
I feel weird. After coming up to the tower, there were many times when I was fierce and angry, but I never felt uncomfortable or bland.
-Ugh,
I went into the portal that was created.
* * *
After Cho Hyun-soo headed to the 16th floor.
The 15th floor was the first to face a change.
cloudy sky.
damp earth.
The damp wind blew heavily across the floor.
Where did the fire that looked boring go?
Why did the undead who couldn’t sleep fall asleep?
-Tuk thump
Rain started to fall from the sky without any answer.
Rainwater running down the collapsed wall.
The drizzle soon turned into a shower, knocking on the ground, and the droplets that jumped up spread out in a dizzying manner.
-A
place where water collects in pits dug and water droplets fall from burnt tree branches.
The bottom of the broken statue of the goddess. The crest, which was not visible due to clogged soil, appeared.
-Tonganus, the hometown of Hugo Arte, the shield of the Holy Kingdom.
– A haven to cool off the heat of the fire.
A notification window appeared in the quiet village where traces of the fire had been washed away.
[Hugo Arte feels grateful.]
[Hugo Arte’s favorability increases.]
[Hugo Arte prays to Petorodon, the fire god.]
[The hidden quest’s reward, fire protection, is with Cho Hyun-soo.]
