Shincon’s One Coin Clear - Chapter 13
Episode 13. Find the orb (5)
An empty lot in the forest where Andromalius is waiting for players.
There were quite a few players.
“This is not good.”
Arem, a player from fantasy dimension Eden, frowned.
From the beginning, he was waiting in the clearing with the intention of stealing the orbs that other players had collected.
However, the plan was disrupted by the appearance of the giant serpent, Aksharon.
A significant number of players returned to the clearing without collecting orbs to avoid Aksharon.
“Why are you returning without collecting them?”
“There, the demon king is sitting down. It must have been calculated that it would be safe.”
“Not good.”
There are too many eyes to see.
Even if there were players who brought the orb, it became difficult to steal it.
If you take it, you can take it, but that’s the problem.
It’s simple if you think about why those players came back.
Like Arem, they also thought of attacking the player who had collected the orbs.
Of course, maybe not all.
Some might wait for the big snake to disappear before going back to find the orb.
However, at this point, it was clear that if a player who collected the orb and went in front of Andromalius appeared, everyone would attack the player with the orb, causing a mess.
“Haha because of that snake demon.”
“I can’t catch it. Twenty players were eaten without doing anything.”
“Are you that strong?”
“They say you have to scratch it with the Aura Sword to get the knife stuck. But I heard that it plays in 10 seconds.”
Arem shook his head at the words of his colleague.
“It’s a level I can’t catch at all.”
Aura Sword. sword.
In the Eden dimension, the aura sword was a skill that could only be used by a knight level famous in the region, if not a super-high level.
“Because of that guy, I can’t dare to collect orbs. What was the demon king thinking by letting such a guy loose in the forest?”
“I don’t mean to grab and find the orb comfortably, but to find it uncomfortable while holding your breath.”
“Damn it. I heard that a powerful witch appeared in the forest in the north.”
“Do you have something to eat in a hurry? It’s not something we can save. Let’s go as planned.”
Arem shook his head.
‘That’s urgent. There’s no way a guy who gathered orbs in a forest where monsters like this are lurking will be taken lightly.’
Arem was trying to steal the orbs that the goofballs had gathered, but he had no intention of recklessly challenging the strong.
Arem spat out curse words and inspected the clearing.
Even if you roughly count, there are dozens of players.
Considering the players hiding their presence and locating around the vacant lot, the number seemed to be higher.
‘I’m sure he can take away even a fairly strong man. Because there is no business in front of numbers.’
But the next scene is clear even without seeing it.
If someone collects orbs right now, this clearing will become a sea of blood.
***
“I didn’t expect it to come this far.”
The sun stuck out its tongue.
The grotesque Stan had flown to his nest poisoned by the green sand scorpion’s venom.
Thanks to that, Taeyang got an unexpected orb.
5 of them too.
[The orb’s buff is applied.]
[The orb’s buff is applied.]
[The orb’s buff is applied.] [
The orb’s buff is applied.]
[The orb’s buff is applied.]
Thanks to that, I collected all 18 orbs.
-The orb is graduation.
-He only fought, did he collect all 18 orbs? Hahaha
– But it’s worth it. Rob Stan’s nest, Aksharon snake’s burrow…
– It’s amazing that he didn’t.
Taeyang obtained the stats corresponding to 28 achievements.
At the same time, the orb-related achievements were also resolved.
-Good good. Less work to show off.
“Isn’t there something like an egg here? I think it would be delicious if you eat it with a fried egg.”
-Stan’s egg? doesn’t exist. Stan is single.
-celibacy?
-all. similar to me I have no intention of getting married either.
-TT
-? why are you crying
– I think I know what you think…
– We understand! that’s right! No need to get married!
-??? why are you all of a sudden
The sun applied the powdered essence of the grass flower to the wound.
Originally, the sap powder of grass flower was a narcotic powder that showed symptoms of paralysis and hallucinations, but the difference between medicine and poison was a piece of paper.
It can also be used as a pain reliever in very small amounts.
-are you okay?
“Oh yes. I can bear with it for a little bit now.”
This wasn’t the first time I’ve experienced pain in virtual reality.
I gritted my teeth and endured it, but it was worth it.
-?? what.
– You look really sick.
-You’re playing the game with the pain control device turned off?
-crazy? isn’t that illegal?
-Did a shock death while playing a game before it was illegal;;
-But if you die in Dantalian now, you really die anyway.
-That’s it too.
-Did you turn it off because of the synchro rate?
-Wow, I went in holding each one to clear it with all my heart.
-No, does turning off the pain control device in the first place help the game?
The chat window slides down.
Taeyang and Hyunhye ignored the chat and discussed future plans.
“The players must have been swept away by Aksharon by now, right?”
– It’s been a while since I was swept away.
“Then they must be targeting us by now.”
It wasn’t a big secret that Aksharon was a tenacious hunter.
In the first place, isn’t there a metaphor of ‘as tenacious as a snake’?
After the sun healed, he moved his hands busily to pluck Gozostan’s feathers and applied as much green sand scorpion venom as possible.
“With this, preparations to hunt Aksharon are over.”
It splits Aksharon’s scales with sharp Stan’s feathers, slows it down with the green sand scorpion’s neurotoxin, and suppresses its regenerative power.
Of course, even if he did that, Aksharon was a powerful monster, but at least he came within the baseline to be able to hunt.
The sun, freed from Stan’s nest, suddenly lowered itself and sought cover.
-what. what’s the matter?
“There is something.”
The sun looked around.
For a short time, a strange tension spread in the forest.
Not too long ago, the air in the forest was not so heavy.
The sensory organs of the sun, which receive 27 achievements, instinctively caught danger.
-oh;
– What do you mean?
– I don’t know anything.
– Still, it’s a familiar scene.
Viewers don’t know anything, but only the player is nervous.
As the player climbed the tower, the player’s senses expanded, so it was a scene that often appeared.
-nice. Taeyang Yoon directs scenes that only appear on double-digit floors on the 4th floor. Haha
– They say they don’t even use a pain control device. be that sensitive
-You think not using pain control devices is universal. Haha The pain control device only excludes the senses that are harmful to the player. It’s the same when it comes to finding a sign like this.
-Then why doesn’t Taeyang Yoon turn on the pain control device?
-I don’t know about that. or ask yourself
-Originally, a sense like pain is fucking important in battle, so that’s why. Yun Tae-yang is a fighter by nature, so he must have that kind of sense.
– Brain Fiscal out.
-But if nothing comes out after doing this, it’s a bummer. Haha
Kreureung.
A red-striped leopard appeared from the direction the sun was guarding.
The one with its nose on the floor seemed to be smelling the sun.
– Coming right out.
-What is it? It’s not Aksharon.
The sun did not let down its guard.
there was something more
something bigger.
Then something attacked the leopard.
Kwajik!
A large snake with gray scales.
It was Aksharon.
– Wow, it’s really fucking big.
– It’s disgusting. It’s disgusting.
– I really don’t understand people who raise snakes. how do you grow that?
shhhh.
Aksharon flicked his forked tongue.
The sun looked at Aksharon and plucked Stan’s feathers.
Wood Deuk.
Just the movement of Aksharon caused the trees around it to crack.
The snake was coming closer and closer to the sun.
after.
The sun let out a small breath.
‘There is no need for doubt.’
can catch
The divine synergy obtained at the very beginning of the 4th floor.
27 Achievements Calibration.
Stan’s Feather and Green Sand Scorpion Venom.
The preparation was perfect.
Taeyang swallowed his saliva and counted in his mind.
3.
2.
1.
Parbat!
Stan’s feathers shot towards Aksharon.
***
The sun was going down.
Andromalius, who was sitting in a chair and caressing his pet snake with an expressionless face, suddenly raised his head.
“Oh my.”
For the first time since starting the mission, an expression appeared on his face.
If expression could be defined in words, it was interesting.
“Did you deal with him alone?”
Before long, the tremor that shook the forest shook the clearing.
Kugu Palace!
Kshaaaaaaaaaaa!
“what? What’s going on on the other side?”
“This sound. It looks like ‘that snake’.”
“snake?”
“So you’re saying someone’s fighting ‘the snake’?”
An uproar broke out among the players.
“I am moving now. Who will follow?”
“me too! If I collect one more orb, I will achieve my goal.”
“hey! Go with me!”
Players step out into the night forest without fear.
Normally, they would not have made such a judgment, but the tension and impatience created by the appearance of a powerful demon drove them away.
He wants to get out of the forest as soon as possible.
Player Arem’s eyes lit up as he watched those leaving.
‘This isn’t bad.’
Raiding competition is decreasing and orb supply is increasing.
Arem especially imprinted the faces of the players shouting that he had almost collected all the orbs in his head.
First of all, after the players left, there was silence for a long time.
Maybe 30 minutes passed.
“I can’t hear the screams.”
“Has the hunt been successful?”
“No, that makes no sense. There was no sign of the group of players moving.”
“How do you know that?”
“I don’t know about one or two people, but it’s obvious that that many people are moving.”
“I don’t know about hunting, the snake might have returned.”
When Aksharon first hunted twenty players, a horrifying scream echoed throughout the forest.
Based on their experience, the players concluded that Aksharon was not around.
Then a man entered the clearing.
“What is that guy?”
The half-torn rag was only the gaudy belt.
A man with a shoulder injury and a very tired look.
it was the sun
Arem realized at once that the sun was the player who had collected all the orbs.
“hey. Let’s get ready.”
“good. Judging from the look on his face, he must have suffered a lot.”
Without hesitation, Arem and his comrades drew their swords and moved toward the sun.
They weren’t the only ones moving.
Even players who have never left the clearing area in the first place.
Arem muttered cautiously.
“Going slow. watching slowly. He’s the guy who’s been collecting orbs in this mess. There will definitely be one. We don’t have to suffer, do we?”
“I’ve been patient until now, so there’s no reason I can’t be more patient.”
Half of the players who resided in the vacant lot gathered at the sun at the same time.
boom boom.
The sun bent its head.
“I did collect orbs, but… … Don’t you think you need some traffic control? Will it be the one I collected?”
“The one who eats first wins!”
“Watch your back!”
One sun and a bunch of players.
Naturally, the players regarded each other as rivals rather than the sun.
The players, who were in a hurry, rushed at the sun with their eyes wide open.
“The experience of being ignored like this. something new?”
The sun shot towards the players.
The expression of being shot rather than jumping out and running out was certainly accurate.
Tuung.
The players didn’t even react properly.
pug.
With one punch, the lower jaw shattered and
cuckoo.
With one kick, the spine folded in half.
The average achievement of players is 4.
On the other hand, Taeyang’s achievements are 27.
Their level was more than adults and children.
“crazy!”
“What is so strong!”
The sun threw Stan’s feathers at those who tried to run away.
‘You won’t be able to use it again anyway. Let’s spend it generously.’
The venom of the green sand scorpion oxidized within 3 hours as soon as it escaped from the stinger.
Stan’s feathers were also plucked out, and as time passed, his magic power drained and he lost his sharpness.
Literally, it can be said that it is a weapon exclusively for the great Aksharon.
Star Bust High Kick.
Wow!
“Gagging… … .”
Silence hung over the vacant lot for the last time as the players who lost consciousness in the starburst high kick.
30 seconds.
In just 30 seconds, half of the players who attacked the sun lost their lives.
The sun looked around and shouted.
“Does anyone else need an orb? Come out if you have.”
No one came out.
A picture completely different from what Arem imagined.
Arem also broke into a cold sweat and pulled out a sword and grabbed the fellow.
“Do everything next time. I don’t think now is the time.”
“That’s right. You’re right. I don’t think this is.”
The sun looked around and murmured.
“If not, I will go first.”
slow down.
Players in the direction the sun was walking moved away.
Like Moses parting the Red Sea.
Andromalius, who was sitting at the end of the steps of the sun, smiled.
“Here you are.”
“okay. come.”
“Spit the orb here.”
The snake coiled around Andromalius’ right arm opened its mouth.
The orbs collected by the sun were shaken out.
Tuduk. Tuduk.
One. 2. Three.
… … 10 things. 11 pieces.
Arem muttered with a tired face.
“How many orbs have you collected in the world?”
… … 17 pieces. 18 pieces.
Finally, 18 orbs were piled up in the snake’s mouth.
Andromalius smiled at the sun.
“Eighteen. That’s a very decent score.”
At the same time, the system window popped up.
[2-1 Finding Orbs: Collect 3 orbs. – Pass]
[Acquisition: King Snake Hunt, Monster Hunt Orb Collector (3) Orb Collector (5) Orb Collector (7) Orb Find Clear.] -Um
6 types of achievements.
– I really ate everything I could eat.
-4 floors, 15. Almost 4 achievements per type on average. Crazy.
