Regressing with the King’s Power - Chapter 162
Episode 162:
Italy.
Milan unexplored dungeon.
“Stay in formation!!”
Onsaemi, a guild member who was in charge of the first party, shouted.
“Saint guard!!”
“Hollow position!!”
“Iron shield!!”
“Blade Blake!!”
29 tanks blocked the monsters’ path.
bang. bang. bang. Quang.
Five S-class monsters Hydra attacked 29 tanks holding shields.
“now!!”
At the command of the woman in charge of the second party leader, 29 members of the Magicians Guild who were preparing used their skills.
I’m sorry.
Grumbling.
Blah blah blah.
Lightning. fire. wind, etc.
Skills with various attributes struck Hydra.
In addition, a third party made up of players from the association continued additional attacks.
Suddenly. Come on.
Kwasik. Quad deuk.
Kwarung. Qarring.
Hydra screamed at the successive attacks.
However, its name is an S-class monster.
He wasn’t the type of person who would die from a joint attack by A and B players.
Sigh. Okay.
If one head is cut off, it regenerates into two heads.
One hydra already had ten heads.
‘Is it still too much to have more than one S-class monster?’
This was Taehyun’s decision as he watched the battle from the very rear.
We brought in the elite of Magicians through our own association and Onsaemi.
However, he was unable to win against the five S-class monsters.
If time continued like this, it was obvious that the player would eventually collapse.
‘Even considering Hydra’s special nature. It’s just like this.’
Hydra will not die unless you directly destroy the magic stone.
The problem is that the magicite is inside the hydra’s hard scales.
What if three parties focus on one animal?
When skills were dispersed in this way, there was an absolute lack of firepower.
‘But if I roll a little more, I’ll get five S ranks.’
Even while Taehyun was struggling, I was relieved to see the talent shining.
One thing I learned while fighting countless battles.
This means that if you overcome extreme situations repeatedly, your skill and magical proficiency will eventually increase along with it.
Although it may not be as fast as the growth type, it alone can make a difference of one grade.
“I guess we’ll have to step forward soon.”
Kwak Si-yang, who was watching from the side, said.
The signal was Taehyun nodding his head.
“You guys!! “It’s time over!!”
Kwon Kang-hyuk shouted and jumped forward.
S-rank skill ‘Beast Protection’.
He transformed into a 2-meter-tall water buffalo and crashed into the hydra’s massive body.
Kwaang!!
Kwon Kang-hyuk’s body slam caused the hydra to bounce off at an incredible speed.
Kwaaaang!!
The hit hydra collided with another hydra and fell side by side into the dungeon wall.
The moment when the two hydras were about to wake up.
Kwak Si-yang used the skill he was casting.
It was an S-rank skill, ‘Magic Condensation’.
Like Ricky Harlis’ ‘Energy Compose’, it was a skill that could be changed into various forms depending on the control.
Phew. Phew. Phew. Phew.
The magic power transformed into dozens of awls and pressed down on various parts of the Hydra’s body.
The two hydras screamed and writhed.
But that was the last struggle.
Kwon Kang-hyuk, who turned into a bear, drove his fist into the hydra’s solar plexus.
Pow.
It sounded like gunpowder exploding.
Hydra’s chest exploded, revealing the hidden magic gemstone.
Kwon Kang-hyuk’s other hand grabbed the magic stone.
Kwasik!!
Cooung.
The Hydra whose magic stone was broken died.
[Kiaaa.]
Another hydra targeting Kwon Kang-hyuk opened its four mouths.
but.
Fuuuuk!!
The long, condensed awl was pierced into the hydra’s chest.
It was so big that it was big enough to break the magic stone.
Cooung.
The two hydras fell down in an instant.
It happened in less than 5 seconds.
[…!!]
[Kiaaa!!]
[Keeee!!]
S-rank monsters also have reason.
The remaining three hydras ran wild.
However, these were not players to let go quietly.
The three parties that had retreated surrounded Hydra in a circle.
The three hydras faltered as more than a hundred players stood in their way.
That brief moment was the difference between life and death.
Suddenly.
Seongjin Park’s skill ‘Baldo’.
One hydra lost ten heads after being swung by a spiral sword.
Cooung. Cooung. Cooung. Cooung.
Before the fallen necks regenerate.
Fuuuuk.
The sword he struck pierced the scales and the magic stone shattered.
Park Seong-jin cut the Hydra’s body into pieces with a confirmed kill.
‘Three of these.’
Taehyun’s gaze turned to Ayoung.
She was dealing with the remaining two hydras at once.
Blah blah blah blah.
A magical power that is incomparable to that used by Magicians guild members.
A huge cold blast froze two Hydras.
Just for a moment.
Crack. Quad deuk.
Damn. Damn it.
A crack appeared in the hydras’ resistance.
Tiring.
[Enhances the skill Ice Age (S). The consumption of magic power accelerates.]
Blue magic power began to overflow from her body.
Blah blah blah blah.
A spear of ice was created in her hand.
Following the shape change in ‘Ice Age’, ‘weapon enhancement’ and ‘body enhancement’ were used.
Crack.
She quickly leapt and pierced the chest of a hydra.
And the moment I was about to turn to the other guy.
Kwachang.
Hydra desperately peeled off ‘Ice Age’ and opened its six maws towards Ayoung.
‘It’s still clumsy.’
Taehyun chuckled and used a skill.
Tiring.
[Skill Chain of Binding (AAA) has been activated.]
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Sepulchrr. [Skill Chain of Binding (AAA) has been activated.
A magical chain created in the air wrapped around the body of the charging Hydra.
[Kiaaaaa.]
Several heads shouted at the same time, causing some to fall into a stunned state.
Taehyun didn’t care and concentrated his magic.
[Skill Binding Chain (AAA) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption is accelerating.]
Crack. Quad deuk.
Deuddeuddeuk.
The chain penetrated the hydra’s hard skin and penetrated deep inside.
The hydra screamed and writhed, but that was all.
Sigh.
The chain stretched to its limit and tore the Hydra’s body into pieces.
It was an eerie feeling different from swords or magic.
‘I even destroyed this magic stone.’
Taehyun tried to control every single chain, so I couldn’t help but feel disappointed.
But for those watching, that was enough.
“That’s amazing….”
“That’s an S-rank player….”
“You idiot. “Player Taehyun Kim is now SS grade.”
“Oh, that’s right.”
Taehyun listened to their words and approached Ayoung.
“The controls seemed shaky at the end.”
“…sorry.”
Ayoung lowered her head.
If I tried to push myself too hard, I almost caused damage to the attack team’s strength.
“There’s no need to push yourself too hard.”
At those words, Ayoung’s shoulders slumped.
Although she was an S-rank player, she had no experience conquering a dungeon of this scale.
It is different from others who have cut down countless S-class monsters.
“Taehyun Kim. Why… me? Maybe a friend….”
“Don’t be mistaken. As I said before, all of the main members were chosen based on their skills.”
Taehyun, anticipating what he was going to say, firmly drew a line.
“Don’t be too discouraged.”
“….”
Tuk-tuk.
Taehyun patted her shoulder and turned to Kwak Si-yang.
‘I don’t want to be a burden.’
Looking at Taehyun’s back.
Ayoung strengthened her fighting spirit.
* * *
Three days have passed since I entered the unexplored dungeon.
“Fuck you. “It’s not a dungeon, it’s a labyrinth.”
Kwon Kang-hyuk, who was taking a break, grumbled and got up.
Even though he had fought twenty S-class monsters just moments ago, there were no aftereffects left on the large man’s body.
“Calm down. “But aren’t there still enough supplies?”
“I just said that out of frustration. You damn snakes!! “I think I’ll boil snake soup and eat it.”
“surely. “At this point, I wonder who the owner of the dungeon is.”
Park Seong-jin, who was quietly sharpening his knife, helped out.
There were hundreds of monsters I faced over the course of three days.
Surprisingly, they all had the form of snakes, so it was natural to assume that the dungeon boss was also related.
Kwak Si-yang, who was serving as a staff member of the attack team, approached Tae-hyeon.
“Player Kim Tae-hyun. There is still enough food… but mental fatigue is unavoidable. “Wouldn’t it be better to go back before the week goes by?”
I don’t know how Taehyun realizes that it’s a double dungeon.
‘The dungeon is bigger than I thought.’
He thought it wouldn’t be a bad idea to start looking for an exit now, just in case.
“Then let’s go for one more day. “If you don’t come out by tomorrow, I’ll find a way out.”
“I understand.”
After a while.
Kwak Si-yang conveyed Tae-hyeon’s thoughts to the three people.
“ruler! ruler! Everyone lift your heavy butts!! depart!!”
Kwon Kang-hyeok, who was tired of the snakes, shouted loudly.
* * *
The fourth day.
Contrary to Kwak Si-yang’s thoughts, a place where the boss was presumed to be was found.
Unusual magical power was flowing out from the gap in the huge door.
Leaving a distance from the door, the raiding party unpacked their luggage.
“I think it would be best for just the five of us to go in here.”
“Wouldn’t it be better to at least take some healers?”
Taehyun shook his head in response to Lim Ah-young’s question.
In any case, the skills of A-grade players do not work on SS-grade monsters.
Additionally, a healer with poor combat skills would not have been able to last even 20 seconds in there.
A strategy team that was initially created to gain growth experience.
If you die now, it will only be a waste of time.
The four people were convinced and each took a potion and a scroll.
“Rotten. “It took a long time.”
Kwon Kang-hyuk grunted and pushed the huge door.
Kiiiiiiiig.
Darkness welcomed them.
and.
Hwareuk. Hwareuk. Hwareuk. Hwareuk.
Huge flames rose on both sides of the door.
In an instant, over a hundred torches were lit.
“This is…”
“….”
When the companions were confused by the stone statues that filled the cavity.
Cooung.
The huge door closed automatically.
Hiss. Hiss. Shhh.
The sound of a snake passing along with evil energy was heard.
Then far away.
Something stood up at what appeared to be an altar.
[Welcome. You foolish humans.]
“It’s a humanoid monster.”
Park Seong-jin muttered as he poured magical energy into his spiral paint.
“It won’t be easy.”
Humanoid monsters were often difficult to deal with due to their intelligence.
“That doesn’t matter. “The cut will be the same anyway.”
Kwon Kang-hyuk pulled out the hatchet that was fastened to his waist.
The monster that landed on the ground began to move.
Slurp, slurp.
“Why are you so fast?”
The companions unleashed their magic power as the distance quickly narrowed.
For a humanoid monster, its movements were strange.
It wasn’t until he got closer that I could understand the reason.
“That…”
Even the pelvis is no different from a human woman.
However, from the legs surrounded by fins, it took the shape of a snake.
“Fuck…”
Unlike the others who were frowning, the corners of Taehyun’s mouth went up.
‘It’s just as I heard.’
Milan unexplored dungeon.
The ruler there was the SS-rank monster Medusa.
