Shincon’s One Coin Clear - Chapter 92
Episode 92. Banquet Hall (2)
The 16th to 18th floors were the domain of Balak, the 62nd rank demon king.
The reason why Balak had the nickname of the Dragon King was simple.
Big and la la la!
Big la la la la rock!
Crowaaaaa!
Dozens of demon dragons swimming in the air.
This is because all the dragons inhabiting the Demon Realm were his servants.
16th floor. The banquet hall stage is, so to speak, a fish farm for Balak.
There were many ferocious and powerful monsters in the demon realm.
Demon dragons are a race born with strong strength, hard scales, and an overwhelming mana heart, but they were often eaten by such monsters before becoming Jackie Chan.
In fact, just like Untara, who had just reached the Jackie Chan level, was captured by the sun.
The seed of the demon dragon is precious, and Balak operated a farm like this to get rid of demon dragons that die in vain.
Then why is Balak’s fish farm a stage called ‘The Banquet Hall’?
It was simple.
This is because the players are the feast of these sub-dragons.
“Damn the banquet hall.”
“Isn’t that the worst stage the seniors were talking about?”
“It would be a miracle if he returned alive.”
The players around looked at the magic dragon swimming in the air.
It was then.
Hoo-wook.
Incredible density of mana covered the stage.
Soon, the bodies of the players began to float in the air.
Hundreds of people on stage at the same time.
‘This.’
The sun raised its eyes.
Couldn’t resist.
It was like a piece of iron being attracted by a powerful magnet.
He summoned magic for resistance, but it was meaningless.
The sun’s mana shrank like a balloon descending to the depths of the sea.
‘Overwhelming mass.’
pounding.
Dragon hearts react to mana.
The sun instinctively grabbed his chest.
Hundreds of players gathered in one place in a short time.
Quadduk.
A gigantic dragon man scanned the players with reptilian eyes.
“They are new worms.”
thud.
The mana that held the players disappeared in an instant.
“omg!”
“Ahh!”
But the players did not fall to the floor.
Before they knew it, there was a transparent wall beneath their feet.
Salomon murmured.
“Mana crystals.”
“what?”
“I forcibly gathered mana and made a foothold.”
It was not a phenomenon created through reprocessing of magic or witchcraft.
Concentration of pure mana.
Ran let out a groan.
“Because of how much internal energy he has built up.”
Balak stretched out his hand, and the body of the sun flew like a bounce and was caught by him.
something that happened unintentionally.
Vertical pupils unique to reptiles flashed.
“Cheuk.”
“Are you Yoon Taeyang?”
Around the heart of the sun, ferocious mana squeezed.
The feeling of pressure, as if Balak was putting his hand into Taeyang’s chest and holding his heart directly.
“This bastard.”
Soon Balak revealed this.
He felt the dragon heart of Untara dwelling in the heart of the sun.
“Did you kill the dragon?”
The sun gritted it.
It wasn’t a question that needed an answer.
The dragon heart sleeping in the heart is no different from the mark of a dragon slayer.
Kwadeudeudeuk.
Sun’s complexion turned pale due to the growing pressure.
Balak continued, holding onto the sun.
“24 hours. It’s children’s meal time. If you endure it, you live, and if you die by being eaten, it’s over.”
[6-1 Banquet Hall: Survive for 24 hours.]
[Time limit: 24:00]
As soon as augmented reality appears in front of the players’ eyes.
Clink!
The floor supporting the players was broken.
“Aaaaaagh!”
“help me!”
“Hey! under! under!”
Demon dragons randomly rush at the falling player.
Balak looked at the sun in his hand for a moment.
You want to take your own life, but that complicates things.
“Go down and die.”
Balak threw down the sun.
***
The banquet hall stage was a large maze-shaped canyon.
It is said that it is deeply dug, but it is meaningless to the demon dragons who have seized air supremacy.
In other words, the terrain of the canyon is an unfavorable constraint only for the players.
True to its name, the banquet hall, the stage was, as the name suggests, the table for the demon dragons.
Demon dragons get enough nutrients by eating the player.
They also cultivate beastly virtues such as ferocity and ferocity through the experience of hunting fleeing or resisting players.
Ran shouted.
“Three on the left. can you push If not, I will!”
“I will.”
Hoo-wook.
Salomon exhaled smoke and signed his hand.
Smoke Magic: Cloud Wall.
Fain!
The smoke he exhaled filled his body several times and covered the gorge.
Big and la la la!
A demon dragon lifted its head into the cloud wall and pushed it.
The wall was pierced, but the smoke that clung to the dragon’s body began to corrode the scales.
Seeing this, the sun stepped on Jin-gak.
cooong.
Starburst High Kick – Canon Form.
Fain!
A beam of light emanating from the tip of the sun struck the skinny dragon’s chest.
Big and la la la!
The demonic dragon screamed even louder as if the medicine had risen.
Then Ran shouted.
“I found it! Enter!”
What Ran found was a crack in the maze.
From the outside, you can’t predict where they are connected.
A naturally formed crack that one person could barely pass through.
Without hesitation, Ran squeezed through the crack and threw herself.
Huung.
As the body of Ran enters, a crack ripples.
It was obviously a magical phenomenon.
“I will follow you!”
“hurry!”
Soon Salomon enters.
Jeonguihaeng 1st meal – Tongcheon: Yun Taeyang-style arrangement.
Cuckoo!
Taeyang, who gave a new technology (?) to the demon dragon that rushed after him, followed and entered.
Kwaaang!
I belatedly swung my front foot toward the rift, but the three of them had already entered the rift.
Big la la la la!
Big la la la rock!
Crowaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
All of a sudden, the three Demonic Dragons, who had lost track of the sun, roared fiercely.
***
The sun stole my forehead in a cave reminiscent of a coal mine.
-Are you okay?
“I feel better. Phew that’s tough.”
-It’s tough. It’s such a stage.
As with any fantasy-based game, in Dantalian, dragons were powerful monsters.
A stage where dozens of such dragons appear.
The banquet hall was the most difficult stage among the 16th floor stages.
Some users cited the banquet stage as an example of a balancing failure by the production team of Dantalian because it was a heinous environment that was difficult to see even on the 20th floor stage.
“shit. As soon as I started, half of the magic I memorized was gone.”
Salomon asked nervously, pulling out a cigarette.
Tidying up the hair that was scattered in the battle of Lando.
“I said it would be difficult, but this is more than I thought.”
boom boom.
The sun bent its neck to and fro.
“shit. Ballack caught me and the pace was off from the start. It could have been a lot easier.”
The part that had been held by Balak was blackened and dead.
I held on so strongly that even after several hours had passed, the pain still pierced me.
“therefore. Why are you doing this to me? Is it because it’s S+ grade?”
“It must have felt the dragon heart.”
I tried to kill Dragon Heart’s presence as much as possible, but it didn’t work out.
Although the sun’s mana management was immature, it was because the dragon heart reacted reflexively when Balak’s mana occupied space.
– This is the first time I’ve had this, so I didn’t expect it. Sorry.
“What are you sorry about? I heard that this is the first time among users. If you don’t know, you have to suffer. what.”
the sun grumbled.
The experience of still being held in Balak’s hands was not good, but there was something else that I hated even more.
A feeling of pressure tightening my heart.
The direct sensation of something gigantic crushing the internal organs was literally terrifying.
The sun, recalling the sensations of that time, shuddered involuntarily.
“Anyway, you have to earn as much as it is difficult, right? Let’s move quickly.”
How difficulty and reward are proportional.
Of course, the rewards to be gained on the banquet stage, where players were annihilated, were great.
The condition for the Banquet Stage is to endure 24 hours.
But if you just hold on, the picture will become boring.
That’s why Balak put a sub-quest in the 12th hour.
Subquest ‘Nutritious Snack’.
A special nutrient prepared by Balak dwells on the player.
“Didn’t you say the alarm would appear on the 12th hour?”
-huh. It will come out to the system window. If we accept it, we will have that nourishment.
When the nutrient dwells in it, the body emits a fragrance that the Demon Dragon can track.
Even if you are hiding in a secret passageway, demon dragons will be able to smell and find you.
As time passes and the medicinal effect starts to circulate, the fragrance becomes stronger, and if you survive until the end of the stage for about 2 hours, the fragrance will vibrate throughout the stage.
All demonic dragons would target players with nutrients.
– It won’t be a mess. I like to eat heartily.
However, there were not only bad things about having nutrients in the player.
“I will never give up on privileges.”
The nutrient made by the demon king Balak himself did not only promote the dragon’s growth.
As long as the player survives, the effect of the nutritional supplement will bloom in that player’s body.
skin (scales) eye heart blood bone muscle.
The Blooming Nutrient randomly strengthened the player’s body parts.
While thinking about the perks of nutritional supplements, Ran suddenly muttered.
“sun. Wouldn’t it be great if you took a cardio? Dragon Heart won’t be strengthened at the same time. Since it is the heart of a dragon, the medicinal effect might be better.”
“No, no.”
The sun shook its head.
“I have a bad heart.”
“why?”
“Right now, Dragon Heart’s mana circuit can’t stand it. It tastes like death.”
By the current standard of entering the 16th floor, Taeyang’s body was obviously out of balance.
In terms of a motorcycle, the body is light, but it has an engine with an excessive displacement.
Only the engine was powerful enough to turn the throttle with excitement and the body would flip over.
If the heart was strengthened, there was a high possibility that problems would occur in various parts of the body, starting with the mana circuit that was barely holding on.
‘Of course, it’s not like that in theory, but it’s just how I feel.’
As much as mana itself is something treated as ‘sensory’, ignoring the senses itself is unsettling.
Rather, except for the heart, everything else was good.
“It’s a problem, a problem. Perks and skills, all of which feel like overloading the body.”
It is not expressed numerically, but it is felt sensuously.
To compare it to a computer, it feels like the hardware can’t support the software.
– Ha ha It’s ridiculous.
-Azur Murph said that he would be ranked as a ranker even if he showed 100% performance of his character in Dantalian.
– There are definitely different levels.
-Is there any other solution?
The solution Hyun-hye and Tae-yang put their heads together was the banquet hall stage.
If the strengthening of the body of nutritional supplements does not take only the heart, it will eventually become a means to strengthen the hardware.
Salomon asked.
“Are you saying you can face bad situations even if you get the rewards?”
“No. Aren’t you going to die right away? Even if the nutrients strengthen the heart, as Ran said, the power increase will definitely happen right away. I’ll have to roll that and find another way.”
“I heard that he did too.”
“Anyway, let’s stop talking about the rewards we haven’t gotten yet.”
The sun pulled out a paper from its bosom.
It was a map that recorded the banquet hall’s labyrinthine canyon and secret passage.
cooong!
Big la la la la!
At that time, the roar of a demon dragon was heard from the other side.
It seemed that the player entering the secret passage was discovered by the demon dragon.
Even if the nutrients were not infused, there were often cases where the secret passage was exposed.
the sun murmured
“Never mind. We’ll do our own thing.”
The banquet hall stage has a lot of work to do.
