I Stole the Number One Ranker’s Soul - Chapter 139
Episode 140
“Are you going to solve it with words like before this time too?”
Seo Ji-han asked while checking the hunters visible from afar.
“no. “I’ve confirmed the effect of the Saint’s Dignity skill, so let’s do it quickly.”
When I got down to the ground and answered, Seo Ji-han nodded.
There isn’t much time. There was quite a bit of time until the quest was completed, but the problem was the time when Seo Ji-han materialized.
Since we spent some time subduing Fergis, Seo Ji-han’s materialization time may end before we send out the hunters.
“Then it’s my turn to step forward.”
Seo Ji-han pulled up his mask with a bright smile on his face.
Since everyone knows that the person closing the dungeon is Seo Ji-han, covering his face may not have much meaning…
“I’ll be back.”
Seo Ji-han, who nodded slightly while looking at me, lowered his posture and approached them.
And the moment he thought the distance had narrowed to a certain extent, he quickly rushed forward.
The first hunter couldn’t even react properly.
Starting with him collapsing after being hit in the back of the neck, Seo Ji-han proceeded to subdue the hunters one by one.
It was as if I was seeing the skills of a craftsman who had been single-mindedly pursuing his life for 30 years.
One hit made sure that one person fell.
The last remaining hunter opened his mouth as if he barely realized what was going on, but the situation had already ended a long time ago.
“end.”
Seo Ji-han shook his hands and looked back at me.
It was handled so insignificantly that even I was confused.
Was this… easy?
Of course, Seo Ji-han is ranked #1 and is the best close combat hunter in existence, so ordinary hunters may not be a match for him.
But is it this easy? like this?
It feels a bit unreasonable, doesn’t it?
“what’s the matter?”
“No…”
I looked at Seo Ji-han again.
I’ve seen him in his daily life so much that I often forget
that he was someone I couldn’t even imagine being in the same room with until a few months ago.
“Now, let’s get him out and go to the next team.” Let’s move on.”
Seo Ji-han, who seemed to be in a very good mood, gathered up the fallen hunters.
All I had to do was open the gate.
Then he automatically threw the hunters into the gate.
In this way, the remaining 18 teams were dealt with one by one.
There were times when I encountered hunters with quite outstanding skills, but that didn’t change anything.
‘Who are you!’ or ‘What…?’ The only difference is that he fainted, leaving behind the same fatal wound.
In front of Seo Ji-han, everyone was like a chick in front of a cat.
“It was over really quickly.”
I was once again amazed as I watched Seo Ji-han throw the last team into the gate.
There is still a long time left on the quest, but there are no new conflict notifications.
It was really the end.
Quest: Beast King Pergis’ request has been completed.
You can receive quest rewards.
A quest completion notification message appeared.
Hmm, if I receive the reward right here, I can inherit the horn without having to meet Pergis?
“The quest is completed. Should I get the horn here now?”
“There’s no reason to delay. “Let’s take it.”
“That’s right. There’s something to check.”
I opened the status window and checked the quest items.
Quest: Beast King Pergis’ Request (Reward Receipt)
When I touched the reward receipt item in the status window, the quest window disappeared and a new notification message appeared.
Proceed to receive the quest reward.
Beast King Pergis’s Request You have inherited the crown.
The number of S-class skills that can be inherited has reached its limit, so additional skills cannot be inherited. Would you like to
delete the existing skill and inherit the skill of Beast King Pergis?
Inheritable skill
〈S-Class Beast King Cannon〉 (Active) ) If you do not inherit
the 〈S-Class Beast King Protective Shield〉 (Active)
skill, you can use the special option 〈Enhancement〉. In front of
the inheritance enhancement
notification message, I was momentarily troubled.
“I have two Beast King Pores and Beast King Protective Shields. “I don’t really feel like it either.”
I thought about the battle with Fergis.
It was hard to say that it was threatening even with empty words.
The sight of a bright blue magic sphere forming on the horns of a huge white deer and flying towards Seo Ji-han.
First of all, the speed was too slow.
The ground that was hit directly by the attack was dented. Looking at it, the power itself didn’t seem to be bad, but compared to the Chungwangpo, it was a skill that was lacking in many ways.
“Hmm… the Water King Cannon is like that.”
He must have compared the Chungwangpo and the Suwangpo by nodding his head in understanding.
This is a pass. Replacing the Chungwangpo with the Suwangpo is foolish.
“What’s left is the Suwanghosinmak. This is also a bit ambiguous.”
“Something like that shield? Isn’t that okay?”
In response to Seo Ji-han’s question, I clicked on the skill and checked the details.
S-class < Beast King's Protective Shield > (Active)
Details: Creates a shield on yourself to block long-range and close-range attacks.
It’s not a bad skill, but I don’t like this protective shield. I have already seen the sight of Han’s attack tearing it apart like a piece of paper. Does
this skill really have any meaning?
After all, ordinary monsters are not my opponents.
“The Beast King’s Protective Shield… It looks useless.”
“That’s right. Then there is only one conclusion.”
“that’s right.”
We said in unison,
“Strengthen your skills.”
“I use it to strengthen my skills.”
Special option < Strengthening >.
This is the item I was worried about
the whole time. Originally, I was planning to eat all the Zirgis horns and use them to strengthen the skill, but now that it has turned out, it is not a bad idea to use the Pergis horns. I selected the strengthening item in the notification message
. .
Proceed with the special option < Strengthening >.
Please select the skill to strengthen.
Seeing the newly emerged message, I glanced at Seo Ji-han for a moment.
He caught my gaze and approached me with an interested expression.
“What are you thinking of strengthening? ?”
Well, what would be better?
First of all, I need to strengthen the skills that I will never delete in the future.
I poured a lot of money to strengthen the skills, but if I delete the skills later, my efforts so far will be in vain. In that case, there is only
one option.
“Strengthen the Chungwangpo.” “I will do it.”
Seo Ji-han nodded without saying anything else.
The Chungwang Cannon is my main skill.
It’s not that the Chungwang Cannon lacks firepower right now, but I still don’t know what will happen in the future.
In any case, one strong blow is useful anywhere.
S Strengthening the level skill < Chungwangpo >.
Do you want to use both inherited skills to strengthen it?
Oh, you can strengthen it separately.
Since there are two skills that can be inherited, I guess you can strengthen it twice.
Hmm, one is Chungwang Thunderstorm. Should I strengthen it?
No, let’s just use it all on the Chungwang Artillery.
Anyway, if I eat all the Jirgis horns, I can strengthen it again.
The ‘S-Class Chungwang Artillery’ has been strengthened to the ‘SSS-Class Chungwang Artillery.’
The top of the head briefly flashes with a message. I could feel it.
Even without looking at it, I could roughly feel it. Pergis’ horn was newly added.
“It has been strengthened to the Chungwangpo SSS level… Shall we try using it?”
The S-class Chungwang cannon was sufficiently efficient, but how much better has the SSS class gotten?
Even the hand-fired Chungwang cannon may have become much stronger now.
Seo Ji-han also looked expectant.
But immediately, a new message appeared before my eyes.
Crown succession . After completion, Beast King Pergis has been subordinated to a subject.
Pergis has been subordinated to a subject and given ownership of the dungeon.
Currently, he owns multiple dungeons.
Do you want to proceed with dungeon integration?
Dungeon integration? What is that?
Confusing . Seo Ji-han looked puzzled at my expression.
“Why? Is there a problem?”
“No. I’m asking if you’re going to proceed with dungeon integration…”
What happens if you integrate dungeons, and what happens if you don’t?
These are the moments when you feel the system is unfriendly.
They give you a choice to choose from, but they don’t tell you exactly what it is.
“Just by looking at the words, wouldn’t it mean that the dungeons are being combined?”
“Hmm.”
There’s no use just guessing anyway.
The only person I could turn to for advice in the current situation was Elfanis, but in fact, he didn’t have much experience as a king, so I couldn’t expect much from him.
“Let’s just get on with it!”
“okay!”
I was very tired from wandering around the dungeon for a long time, so I didn’t want to think about it for too long.
When I decided lightly, Seo Ji-han readily agreed.
I proceeded with dungeon integration as is.
Dungeon integration is in progress.
The new dungeon’s entrance passage will be incorporated into the existing dungeon.
The new dungeon will be integrated with the existing dungeon area.
The notification message disappeared and the space vibrated faintly.
Then, a high, sharp sound faintly rang throughout the dungeon.
It sounded as if the highest note of the violin had been pulled out and made thinner and thinner.
Change started from the sky.
The clear sky without any clouds was right next to the slightly reddened sky due to the setting sun, creating a border.
That clear sky is the sky of the dungeon where Elfanis is located.
Next, a new forest began in the wasteland where the land of Pergis Dungeon ends.
Although the two spaces were in the same place, they maintained their characteristics and created a clear gap.
It’s a strange feeling. It was like watching a well-made stage set.
A strange space where there is day and night even without the sun.
His hometown that the fugitive kings brought back in pieces.
I looked at the scenery from a high tree that I climbed with Seo Ji-han’s help.
