Shincon’s One Coin Clear - Chapter 153
Episode 153. Defeat Plague (1)
“Hello, player Taeyang Yoon.”
Dantalian, who was talking to me, looked as if he had shot a hologram through a video device.
-?? Suddenly mood SF?
-There are stages that are sci-fi concepts.
-But Dantalian?
– It’s embarrassing.
Taeyang did not usually empathize with the chat window.
But this time, I had no choice but to empathize.
Suddenly, it’s not some kind of sci-fi movie.
Dantalian, who watched Taeyang’s bewildered appearance, laughed hahaha.
“This is a contact through an oracle.”
“trust?”
“yes. We have come to deliver a message through the contract we made. Maybe other players won’t be able to see me. You are the only player connected to me by contract.”
Dantalian grinned and continued.
“The oracle has a fixed time to talk. So, let’s get straight to the point. The next floor, from the 28th floor to the 30th floor, is the floor of Purkas.”
The 50th rank demon lord Purcas of Death.
He is a demon king who wears a black hood, carries a large scythe, and has a drooping beard as his signature death god.
“I heard about it too.”
“yes. To some extent, you know. Users share information with each other. Of course, I’m here to let users know what they don’t know. Purkas is a demon king who is famous for often leaving his dimensional invasions in the hands of the players.”
“Dimension invasion?”
“There are many dimensions to the world. There are dimensions like Earth and Eden, where billions of intelligent life live, while others, like the dimension from Salomon, Endress Expree, are smaller in volume. The Sharks’ Great Pirate Era stage, which I recently experienced, has the same feeling, with a smaller volume.”
Because the volume is low… … Wasn’t it big?
Dantalian continued.
“In places like that, the Demon King often conducts invasion projects alone.”
“A demon king invades a single dimension alone?”
“yes. A dimension with a large volume, such as the Earth, has high resistance, making it difficult to exert force, but a dimension with a small volume has less resistance.”
Of course, resistance was small, but not completely absent.
In other words, in order for the demon king to exercise power in another dimension, he must suffer some loss.
“Purcas is a demon king with sharp profit and loss calculations.”
In the name of the contents of the dimensional labyrinth, Purkas had the player carry out his dimensional invasion.
This was possible because players who did not reach the level of transcendentalists were not bound by resistance even if they invaded other dimensions.
Purkas makes only the gate connecting the dimensional labyrinth and the corresponding dimension, and eats popcorn while waiting for the work to proceed.
“Is that okay?”
“There is nothing that cannot be done. It is entirely up to the owner of the floor how to organize the stage.”
Of course, the stage filled in this way was less stable than the completed stage.
This means that there is a possibility that the player will die or go wrong because of the variable.
And this was a story not only for the players but also for the demon king.
This is because there is a possibility that the player may not be able to fully obtain the rewards through dimensional invasion because he does not know what variables will occur in the dimension.
“It is a story that there is no promise that it will work out as it is a matter of passing it around. Purkas is taking that risk.”
“Of course, Purkas is also thinking about that, so he will send only players who have crossed his baseline.”
And, of course, it was very likely that the Sun had crossed the Purkas baseline.
“Anyway, dimensional invasion is something that even a demon lord can get a pretty big reward for.”
“By the way, when I am called by Purkas and mobilized for the dimensional invasion, at that moment I will be in full control of the dimensional invasion, right? then… … .”
The sun suddenly opened its eyes.
“Can I steal the reward that Furkas is supposed to get from ‘mining’ the dimension?”
Dantalian shook his head.
“I don’t know if that’s possible. No player has succeeded in doing that yet. Personally, I think it would be difficult. Because you are not the Demon King.”
All rewards come as achievement card artifacts, etc. only in the dimensional labyrinth, but the rewards that can be obtained in the real dimension were not.
How was the handling of the vast amounts of crude oil buried in the Middle East in the past?
It was money only after I knew how to use it, but before that, it was just like the rocky soil that existed from the beginning.
“You can’t steal the reward, but you can make a profit out of it.”
“Keep talking.”
“It’s difficult for you to reap the rewards of a dimensional invasion. But there are other easy things. It is to interfere with the mining of Purkas.”
Reaping the rewards of mining through dimensional invasion is difficult, but destroying it is very easy.
If you hit a coal mine with dynamite, it becomes impossible to dig coal until you build another mine.
This was also a very easy task compared to expanding the mine through precise calculations.
“As you may have felt while climbing the dimensional labyrinth, the Demon King is quite good at giving players what they need. I don’t know when that happened.”
It’s not a dimension, but it attacks the demon king and extracts the reward.
Dantalian laughed.
The sun also smiled.
“It will be fun.”

[10-1 Defeat the plague: Defeat the source of the plague and recover the last fortress.]
The sun reflexively looked around.
Sun column Salomon Messiah.
No other players were summoned together.
It was then.
“Oh, warrior!”
“Really, the hero has come down! The captain’s choice was not wrong!”
“God hasn’t abandoned us yet!”
Those who seemed to be natives of the dimension looked at the sun and the others with thrilled faces.
The reason Taeyang thought of them as natives was simple.
It was because the skin and bone were adjacent and he was not holding a weapon.
In addition, the mana wave was too insignificant to be seen as a player.
“You don’t think you’re a player?”
-maybe.
Taeyang took a closer look before responding to the natives’ furious reaction.
-It’s an empty lot. no ruins?
“Anyway, things like that.”
Buildings with exposed concrete skeletons.
The sky background, dyed in vermilion, seems more like an apocalypse than a beautiful one.
and.
Rurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Kieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
The cries of unusual monsters.
At least, it was a stage that wasn’t in Hyun-hye’s database.
I waited for a while longer, but no additional summons from other players were made.
The Taeyang party exchanged glances with each other.
“Dantalian’s prediction was correct.”
The world before becoming a stage.
In other words, the dimension of destruction.
And it seemed clear that Taeyang had been chosen as the worker who turned the dimension into a stage.
Taeyang read the goal of the stage once again.
Defeat the source of the plague and restore the last fortress.
It’s written in one line, but it has two goals.
Eliminate the source of the plague.
Restoration of the Last Fortress.
One is for dimensional invasion and one is for ‘staging’ of the dimension.
Which of the two should the sun weigh?
That was a question we had to think about from now on.
“Hey, hero?”
When the sun party did not respond, one of the dimensional natives who had been waiting in silence cautiously approached the sun.
Now that you have a rough idea of the situation, it’s time to learn about the stage.
The sun turned its head to the natives.
The native was thrilled that Taeyang had finally returned to him and said with a worried expression.
“It’s a bit dangerous.”
“Is it dangerous?”
“yes. Hosts are sensitive to human presence. This is especially true for signs emitted by more than 10 groups at the same time. They will come soon.”
The sun looked back at the group of natives.
number six.
Four of the sun’s companions.
It was exactly ten.
The natives were all looking at the sun with anxious expressions.
“What is it? Let’s go in and listen to the explanation.”
Unfortunately, Taeyang and his party couldn’t escape the clichés of horror movies.
Kihehehe.
Perhaps the monsters that the natives referred to as ‘hosts’ appeared.
Seeing the host’s face, Ran crumpled her face without even realizing it.
“Ugh, disgusting.”
Since it is said to be a host, is it something that was once a human?
They were monsters resembling only half the human form.
-Is it a zombie?
-It’s not an ordinary zombie.
-I raised the water for ramen, but I need to lower it again.
-Yoon Taeyang Broadcasting makes me go on a diet.
-Hahaha Yoon Taeyang is amazing. Take care of other people’s belly fat.
-Evande lol.
The face is human, but all the skin has been peeled off.
Blood dripping iron cores are threaded throughout the body, and bright red muscles are exposed unfiltered to the atmosphere.
and a disproportionately enlarged right arm. or left arm.
A white pupil with no visible pupil.
“Evee Ee!”
About five zombie-like monsters rushed at Taeyang while spattering saliva or blood.
Reflexively, the sun jumped forward.
The monster struck the sun with its hideous right arm.
Taeyang stepped on Kuung Jin-gak and held out his right fist.
Transcendent Jin-Gak – Fan Fist (旋風拳).
Kwajijik!
The monster’s right arm, which was otherwise hideous, had become even more hideous.
“Hero!”
Patter.
Blood splattered from the shattered monster’s arm and soon took shape.
It is because the Messiah exercised the controlling power of the blood.
“Blood is similar to that of a human!”
Salomon asked.
“You mean human?”
“well. I wonder if it should be expressed as ‘being human’.”
The sun’s brow narrowed.
‘It’s heavy.’
The native players I met on the Shax floor felt like they would break easily if I touched them.
It feels like breaking a pine board in a taekwondo gym.
But not these guys.
It is rough and hard like chopping wood firewood.
If it was the same as before, I would have liked it because it had a hand taste.
“Kieack!”
Monsters screaming as if they were in pain, as if they had been victimized, even though they were not themselves.
Soon, the iron core wriggled and recovered the shape of the shattered arm with a crunching sound.
The blood dripping through them was nothing but grotesque.
“If we all sympathize with each other, will the wounds heal on their own?”
“I don’t know. What’s for sure is that it’s really disgusting to say the least. This stage must be the worst I’ve ever been to?”
Ran muttered and swung the fan to push the monster away.
Kieeck!
The monster stretched out its arms menacingly even in the midst of wind magic.
“sun! Do you think these guys are resisting magic?”
stormy wind.
quadruple.
The waves of wind crushed the monster, but the monster persevered.
To be precise, magical friction occurred at the part that was in contact with the monster’s skin, reducing the power of wind magic.
After confirming the phenomenon, Ran made an impression.
“Are you sure. Resist my wind tricks! Seemingly… … Almost dragon level. Not Jackie Chan, but a rank below that?”
“Dragon class?”
“For now, as far as magic resistance goes!”
white cuttings.
Huung.
“Keeeeek!”
The monster’s neck just fell off.
The monsters observing Taeyang from behind screamed in sympathy once again.
“I think I should sweep it all at once.”
As the sun was about to come out, the natives watching from behind dried the sun in a panic.
“It’s not possible!”
“Then we all die!”
The sun looked back at the natives.
One of the natives, who seemed to be the captain, continued to speak while stealing a cold sweat.
“The 2nd host moves in small numbers, but when it is recognized as a battle rather than a hunt, the 3rd host is called. The number of tertiary hosts is in the hundreds.”
“Then what shall we do? If you don’t catch them anyway… … .”
“The warrior’s party recognizes it as a species they have never seen before, so they’ll probably just observe it.”
“what?”
“Aren’t they from another dimension? All components, including DNA, are different, so they will be judged as completely different creatures.”
“Those monsters can do that?”
The native nodded wildly.
“I will go to the safe zone and explain the details.”
The natives were not wrong.
When the decapitated monster recovered, the monsters that distanced themselves from the sun’s party observed the sun’s party for a long time and then went back.
The sun looked back at the natives.
“Then let’s go into the safe zone or something and listen to what we have to say.”
