Chapter 369: Torrent (4)
Thats! Gi-Gyu whispered.
Every player on the floorGo Hyung Chul, Tae-Shik, all the Angela Guild members, and Gi-Gyurecognized the person who had appeared from the 90th floor.
The figure was covered with blood and wounds and was limping. Gi-Gyu and the groups presence had seemingly surprised the figure too. A long, awkward silence fell. It was only broken when the figure lost consciousness and collapsed.
Everyone in the group turned toward Gi-Gyu to see what he would do next.
... Gi-Gyu remained silent before calling out quietly, Ha-Rim
Ha-Rim was a close acquaintance of Ha Song-Su and someone Gi-Gyu had met before. What Gi-Gyu couldnt understand was why she was here looking like this. He hadnt seen her since the day he had defeated Ha Song-Su. Her unexpected appearance here had shocked him.
However, he couldnt spend more time just standing here, staring at her.
Dammit. Realizing something, Gi-Gyu announced, We better heal her first.
The first one to move was Haures. He quickly rushed toward Ha-Rim.
... Ha-Rim had lost consciousness, but her body seemed to have a mind of its own as it resisted Haures help. Haures, however, wasnt weak enough to lose a fight against an unconscious individual, and he was fast, so he quickly paralyzed her and brought her to Gi-Gyu.
Ill heal her first. Then, well try talking to her. Well discuss climbing to the 90th floor afterward. Gi-Gyu decided. He looked at the door to the 90th floor, which had opened briefly when Ha-Rim had left. Through it, Gi-Gyu could guess what had likely happened on the 90th floor. As he looked away, the door closed, seemingly refusing to let anyone in.

Gi-Gyu injected Life into Ha-Rim, but that changed nothing. She had severe physical injuries, and someone had drained her of all her energy. She had also seemingly suffered psychological trauma.
I think she went through the same thing, thought Gi-Gyu. Just like Lim Hyun-Soo and Oh Tae-Shiks shell, her shell also had something unfamiliar.
Ha-Rim and Ha Song-Su were a team. After Ha Song-Su had disappeared, Ha-Rims whereabouts had also become a mystery. Gi-Gyu wanted to read her memory, but her shells condition made him hesitate.
Just then, Ha-Rim woke up with a groan. Ugh
Everyone gathered around her cautiously. When Ha-Rim opened her eyes, she was shocked to find so many eyes staring at her.
...!
She moved quickly to prepare for a battle, but Go Hyung-Chul restrained her. Stay still.
However, Go Hyung-Chuls action turned out to be unnecessary, as many others had already restrained her. They had restrained her physically and mentally. What Go Hyung Chul had done had only helped her appreciate her situation.
Ugh It seemed that Ha-Rim couldnt even speak because she groaned strangely. All she could do was glare at Gi-Gyu and his group.
Ha-Rim was allowed to speak after a while. She wasnt in peak condition, so her voice cracked as she asked, Why am I with you people?
When Gi-Gyu gestured, Haures brought her a cup of water. Ha-Rim refused it repeatedly, so Go Hyung-Chul just poured it on her head.
... Ha-Rim glared at him with venom, but her condition improved noticeably from absorbing some fluid.
Resisting like this wont do you any good. Gi-Gyu, who had been quiet until now, said, You were gravely wounded, yet you somehow escaped. That must mean you still want to live.
Ha-Rim gave off bloodthirsty hostility toward him, but Gi-Gyu ignored it. His voice even colder, he continued, If you dont want to die, you better not resist.
Thats probably why the other monsters ran away.
These monsters were born inside Chaos, yet they feared Uranus. These monsters had sensed the imminent arrival of the ruler of this place, and they knew Uranus didnt consider anyone his ally. Their instinct told them to run.
Even Lou began to shudder. After El unraveled the seal over Uranus, Chaos shocking aura inside Gehenna thickened even more. Once Gehenna was utterly saturated with Chaos energy, Uranus would appear. And the exit out of Gehenna would appear following Uranus death.
But it wont lead to the Tower's first floor. Before he had regained his memories, Lou didnt know about this. But now, he knew that Gehenna was a special place. Since Gehenna was Chaos stomach, it was connected to Chaos.
And most importantly, its in the Towers basement.
Therefore, the exit out of Gehenna could lead the user anywhere inside the Tower. The moment it opened, Lou and El would have to lead the Pandemonium soldiers into another battle on the floor Gi-Gyu was at.
Im sure that fight has already begun, Lou guessed. He suspected Kronos and his opponent already knew Lou and El were inside Gehenna. They would have realized that it was finally time.
But I know one thing for sure. Gi-Gyu may have started the fight, but its definitely not over.
Lou knew that because he knew what Kronos and his opponent were after.
-Get ready!
El sounded even more rushed, indicating Uranus was about to descend.
Kronos and his opponent want Chaos to wake up, Lou muttered when he felt Gehenna had begun vibrating even harder. Kronos and his opponent wanted Chaos in its complete form, and the only ones who could make this happen were Lou and El.
We gotta win, Lou murmured. The scent of his Death spread around him, ready to resist the Chaos energy slowly eating away Gehenna. He burned as Death and Chaos fought each other.
Death enveloped Lou. He thought grimly, I might be able to do this.
He was turning into the form he resented the most. Lou didnt want this, but this was the most practical form for the upcoming battle. The sound of scraping metal could be heard as Lou transformed. His current form wasnt the body he had in hell. This body had been made using Satans body. Except for the part Baal possessed, Lou now had every part of Satans body.
Everyone silently watched Lou transform. He was growing so big that the Titans looked like ants beside him. Lou turned into a giant nine-headed dragon. This was the apocalypse dragon, the second form of Satan.
Dun dun dun dun dun dun!
Gehennas ground split open, and a giant just as big as Lou slowly emerged.

We completed forming the three-level barrier!
All the non-player citizens have been evacuated!
Several reports arrived simultaneously. The majority of the cities in Korea, including Seoul, had been evacuated. Most of the Korean population had left their home, which had never happened in the history of this country.
All those people had entered Eden. In their place were countless soldiers, including players, monsters, demons, and angels. The players were the best from all over the world, ready to protect Korea.
-Were ready too.
-Me too.
Sung-Hoon heard Tao Chen and Albertos messages in his head and nodded. Gates after gates formed in Seoul, indicating something big was about to occur. This was why the neighboring countries were already preparing for the aftermath. As for the distant countries, they had sent reinforcements.
Old Man Hwang announced, Were all ready.Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the latest updates
