132 < (2). Ian, and the absolutes -1 >

As you enter the heart of Pascal's encephalogram, the number of guards increases, and even the middle-aged strong enemies begin to blend in.

Especially when the NPC of the warden or officer class appeared.

But Ian was humming his nostrils.

“Excellent experience. ”

NPCs in Pascal's encephalogram, for whatever reason, did not drop any items or gold.

Instead, I spilled a tremendous amount of experience on the bronze level vs. normal monsters.

Thanks to you, Ian's level is 122.

Ian felt good even though he couldn't reach his destination, just battles all day long.

Besides, I can definitely see the new capsule fairy tale rate. ’

Virtual reality anecdotal rates of new capsules were known to be 2% higher than spherical capsules.

It may be because of his mood, but Ian was definitely feeling lighter.

‘Even though Harren who is playing right next to me is a little concerned.... ’

After installing the capsule, Yoohyun returned home, and Harin entered the game to play a game with the old capsule of Jinsung.

I can't stop caring because Harin was always alone in his house.

‘Still, I feel better than being alone. Maybe we can have dinner later...? ’

When I was doing quests in various ways, thinking like that.

Pauline stops walking as if she had found something.

“Baron, I think I've finally found it. ”

And as he turns the corner, Ian's eyes also see a huge iron shaft blocking the entrance to the prison.

A big metal shaft that looks almost 10M.

In front of it were NPCs in uniforms with the Kaimon crest on them.

“Three high-ranking guards, two officers... You're certainly stronger than you've ever been, my lord. ”

According to Seria, Ian nods.

“Yes, it is. But it doesn't matter. ”

Ian smiled and pointed at the ceiling.

“Now you can summon them, and Finn can fight well. ”

It was an open space as it entered the center of the prison.

Not only is it heavily pierced, but it also has a large Colosseum structure that enables summoners to exert their power.

Thanks to this, Ian became confident.

“Pauline, tie up your most powerful enemies, as you have fought so far. Then I'll clean up and help the rest of the enemy as soon as I can. ”

“Very well, Baron. ”

As Lai's strength became overwhelming, Ian's strength in combat in the Civil War became stronger as well, but Ian's ability still shined brighter when he fought many.

“And... I guess we'll have to go through it from now on..." ”

Ian says Pauline nods.

As soon as the battle took place in this vast area, it would be known that they had invaded the enclosure.

“Maybe so. ”

“Then, the fast pact...! ”

Ian gives the two sailors the flare he received from Laurent.

“As soon as we get through here, I'm going to sneak inside and start freeing the prisoners. Then fire this flare into the air. ”

“Very well, Baron. ”

Ian summoned all but Harley.

Holly was about to summon when she stepped in a few moments later.

“Let's go.”

With Ian's short speech, the group holds their positions and moves quickly, as they have done so far.

“Lai, let's get the soldiers first! ”

[Understood, Master.]

Lake Bress strikes the enemies first, and Rye jumps in and starts slaughtering soldiers with heavy HP.

Aaaaahhhh!

The leather armor worn by the guards was brutally torn by Rye's sharp claws, and the relatively strong NPCs of the officer class were being dealt with brilliantly.

“Electric current growth!”

Enemies with higher levels than Ian did not tend to inflict effective current growth damage, but the ‘paralysis’ effect still shot.

[You hit the 'Current Growth’ skill. We've done 4172 damage to Pascal's cripple guard.]

[Pascal Brain Guard is paralyzed.]]

[Pascal Brawler's Movement is slowed by 30% and deals 50% more damage against attacks with the 'Blitz’ attribute.]

[Resets the cooldown time for 'current expansion’.]

A current growth skill that activates more effectively because the higher the number of enemies, the higher the frequency of additional hits.

Paralysis has triggered and unilateral slaughter has begun against the foot soldiers.

‘Let's postpone the quest and hunt some more here... ’

I can't help but think about postponing the quest for a little while because of my EXP!

But Ian wasn't able to fight this well in the first place.

With repeated battles, the pattern of soldiers' movements became familiar, and most importantly, the synergy appeared because the sum with Pauline became more and more compatible.

Besides...

[Summoned Cake Strike has been fatally damaged.]

["Rice Cake" HP reduced by 8764.]

When the summoner's HP drops due to a concentrated attack....

“Summoned Water Healing! ”

The Serena's unique skill, Summoned Water Healing, was activated while buffing in the rear.

[The deceased Seria casts the Summoned Water Healing Technique.]]

[Summoned: Cake Strike HP +60% (47398).]

The tank on the cake table, which felt a bit lacking when dealing with monsters of higher level 120 or higher, was strengthened even further by the healing technique of Seria.

Of course, the summoned water healing procedure had a cooldown of five minutes, but that was a huge help to the power.

[You have defeated the Pascal Gnome Guard. You have 134215 XP.]

[You have defeated Pascal Brackish Warden. You have gained 321132 XP.]

In the blink of an eye, Seria sticks her tongue out at the organized enemies.

“It's so much easier having a cake table with Finn, for sure. ”

Especially since the bread table with a lifespan of 80,000 was able to endure the healing procedure of Seria, it was clearly easier to fight.

“I told you.”

Ian nods satisfactorily.

But then...

A loud drum sounds from inside the brainstem.

T-t-t-t-t-t-t-

Then Pauline fixes her face slightly and asks for Ian.

“You must have noticed it inside, Baron. What do you want to do?”

“Mmmm... ”

Ian thought for a moment.

But I wasn't embarrassed.

We had a rowdy battle in the middle of nowhere, but it was even weirder if we didn't know it from the inside.

‘It's a little early... but I'm going to have to get inside just like I thought. ’

Ian calls Finn and climbs on his back.

Her eyes widen slightly when she saw it.

“My lord, what are you going to do? ”

“While I draw time from this side, I'll go inside and rescue the prisoners. Every time a prisoner is rescued, our power increases. ”

Pauline nods and shakes her head.

“If the baron had said so, it would have been a lot easier. ”

Ian decides to leave Lai, Lake and the flirting with the group.

Pauline says she's powerful, but she's worried about getting all the summoners inside.

‘Just Holly and Finn, the most agile. Rescue is the goal. ’

Ian, roughly ready, told Pauline.

“Pauline, I need you to get as much attention as you can. ”

“Very well, Baron. But we don't know how many soldiers are inside... We need to rescue the prisoners as soon as possible. ”

“Yes, I understand. ”

And Pauline adds,

“If we can rescue Kaisar, it'll be the end of the line. ”

Ian nods.

“Caesar... I'll remember that. ”

Ian, who climbed on Finn's back, carefully flew up just below the concrete wall.

Then Pauline shouted loudly.

“Pauline, the imperial guard of the Ruspelle Empire, is here to rescue the prisoners! ”

Pauline's lioness echoes throughout the encephalocele.

All of the guards' attention was immediately directed to Pauline.

‘This time...! ’

Ian quickly flew onto the pin and into the chrysalis, confirming that Lai, Lake and the cake raced forward with Pauline.

He sighed in relief as he looked at the watchtowers that were installed all over the lighthouse.

‘Whew, if I tried to sneak into the air, I'd be a beehive. ’

When I first arrived in the Pascal Islands, I was seriously concerned about infiltrating the brainstem in the air.

However, many people could not climb on Finn's back, and going in alone was a big risk, so I did not try, but after coming in like this, I realized that it was a really good choice.

“Fina, I think it's that way. ”

Ian had gotten used to Finn's back by now.

Even though Finn's speed was fairly fast, he seemed stable.

Pow, pow, pow!

The battle has now begun at the forefront, and a great drum and a horn sound echoes in succession inside the chrysalis.

Ian and Finn were also naturally exposed to the enemy.

“Finn, get as deep as you can and get rid of me! ”

Although it is said to be Griffin, rapid vertical downhill was not possible due to the nature of pins with structures flying on their wings.

However, now that the position has been exposed, if you go down slowly with a slow-forward flight, you will be completely baptized by the arrow.

Guk-!

With a worried look on his face, Ian jumps off Finn's back without hesitation to arrive at his desired destination.

And at the same time, I summoned Harley.

“Summon, Harley! ”

Heheheh heh heh -!

Summoned to the point where Ian falls, Holly quickly climbs up the structures and takes Ian to her back.

Yeah!

It was not without shock, but Ian, who successfully boarded Harley's back in a very stable posture, became satisfied.

because I've been saving Holly for this, not summoning her until now.

“Okay, fine! ”

Ian's gaze turned to the front.

Deepest part of the encephalogram.

I think we'll find Kaisar if we just destroy that stone gate.

“Pina, keep the guards out of the way! ”

No matter how many guards there were, they would be hard to reach while Finn was using grinding.

And just in time, you hear the screams of soldiers coming from all over the place.

“Intruders! Intruders approaching section A!" ”

Shredding pins into the battlefield at the right time!

Kuaa-!

Ian hurriedly sent a sphere of magical power to the stone gate, confirming that the guards could not get close enough to flinch.

Boom-boom-boom!

And after Harley's assault, a huge stone gate began to collapse with a bang.

Cough, cough!

‘Okay, it's not thicker than I thought. ’

Through the stone gate, a large circular stone chamber appeared inside, with an unidentified gray-haired monster sitting tied to his limbs.

It's like a boss monster in the background and weird atmosphere!

Ian saw it for sure.

‘That must be Caesar...! ’

Ian hurriedly approached him.

The end of the quest seems to be visible to you.

‘According to Helheim, it's a very powerful prosecutor, so if we save him...! ’

But then.

A strange voice rang out before Ian's ears.

“Whoa, whoa. Wait. This is something interesting...? ”

And a human being walking out of the dark.

Ian's gaze naturally shifted toward that direction.

Jerbuck- Jerbuck-

The sound of footsteps echoing in silence.

He emerges out of the darkness, completely exposed, but his whole body is still covered in dark red light.

After seeing it, Ian sighed and grumbled.

“Hah, I thought it would be easier, but it can't be. ”

Ian glances at the man with tense eyes.

If not, I was going to use the spatial distortion to get out of here.

I couldn't deal with someone who looked so strong with only Holly.

A man approaching Ian suddenly pulls out his sword from his waist.

Shhh!

Then he asked Ian with a voice that provoked a murmuration.

“What are you...? ”
