Solo Max-Level Newbie - Chapter 105
Episode 105. How to train a deceased person’s pet (1)
The deal was concluded.
Of course, the trading place is not inside the labyrinth.
“I will go there. I missed the cup of coffee I drank at the library. After all, good coffee can only be enhanced by drinking it in a cozy place.”
Jinhyeok said something he didn’t even want to say.
however.
[Hmm. If that’s the case, I’ll open the gate this way…]
Rick murmured.
What can I say?
Does it sound like he’s thinking about something?
There was hesitation in his voice.
But it was only for a short while.
[Whoops. no. Unexpectedly, things can turn out to be fun. I don’t know if it’s someone else, but if you’re player Jinhyeok Kang, you deserve to be here.]
Rick said something meaningful.
what?
Did you redecorate the great library?
Jinhyuk tilted his head.
Right then.
Whoa!
A huge gate appeared in front of me.
‘This…?’
Jinhyeok’s eyebrows narrowed.
It’s different from any other gates I’ve seen so far.
Even at a glance, the base made of pure white ivory and the golden mist that swayed in the middle seemed unusual.
‘Was it like that?’
Now I understand what Rick meant.
Before going to the elves’ village, I was thinking of spending some time wandering around the dungeons downstairs.
‘It’s fun.’
It didn’t seem like it would end at the level of simply trading.
Jinhyeok moved.
As soon as I crossed the swaying surface of the gate, my vision was immediately blackened.
Woo woo woo!
When the blackened vision became brighter. The view was completely changed.
An endless desert.
A city with a splendid ancient civilization unfolded under the blazing sun.
“Hey…”
Jinhyuk let out a dry breath.
It feels like my lips are about to burn.
Just then.
“Welcome. Player Kang Jin-hyeok. I was waiting.”
Rick, wearing a black suit, greeted Jinhyeok.
Anyway. Can’t you give up your suit even in this scorching sun?
Just looking at it makes me feel hot all over this place.
“I thought I was going to the Great Library, but I didn’t know that the gate would lead to a place like this. Where are you enjoying your vacation?”
Jinhyeok pretended not to know and trembled.
“ha ha ha. I wish I was on vacation, but I’m here for work. Why… you know? Egyptian deities that Jinhyeok-nim knows well. The place where they are is right here. Coincidentally, they also wanted to meet Jinhyeok-nim, so should I say it went well?”
Yes.
The 42nd floor of the Tower of Trials.
This is the upper level of the tower that players dare not even imagine.
And that I was invited here. It must mean that he lied about being protected by the gods of Egypt in the past.
‘Is this because they want to see me struggling among the gods?’
‘Or do you want to see how he copes with that process?’
I don’t know which of the two is the purpose…
Well.
No matter what you imagine, the results will turn out differently than expected.
***
Follow Rick’s guidance and enter the city. Many eyes were focused.
not human
The body was human, but the head was an eagle, a snake, a cat, or a jackal.
‘I can already see the residents of the 42nd floor.’
Jinhyeok remembered the past and fell into sentiment.
Normally, it was a stairway that would take a long time to come, but thanks to Rick, I had a rather interesting experience.
It was also the first time I met the gods in person before I even hit level 100.
While Jinhyeok looked around like that. The residents also looked at Jinhyeok as if they were curious.
“Hey! Hey! look at that I am human.”
“Hoo. I heard that humans entered the tower, but I thought they had already come this far.”
“Seeing that you came with Rick, it looks like you came through the gate, right?”
“Awesome. To get the manager’s approval. Are you saying that you are special among humans?”
“Perhaps he came to be ‘chosen’.”
“already?”
The hum grew louder.
‘It feels like a complete zoo elephant.’
As Jinhyeok smiled bitterly, Rick, who was walking beside him, opened his mouth.
“sorry. Since it’s your first time coming here, I wanted to show you around, but it seems like you’ve given me too much attention.”
“no. It is quite fresh and nice.”
A tour of the 42nd floor. Well… you don’t have to.
Because it was a familiar place.
I know that the 13th pot in Anubis’ bedroom is a fake, but I’ll have to pretend to be a naive newbie.
no one else knows It wasn’t very pleasant to be suspected by the snarky Rick.
“by the way. Didn’t the Egyptian gods want to meet me?”
“yes. you’re right.”
“Seeing the old man smile mischievously, it doesn’t seem like a good reason.”
“After learning that Jin-hyeok-nim cheated on him by claiming to be protected by them… Hmm. Let me tell you.”
Rick pointed to a corner of the desert in the distance.
The craters dug into the flat land were quite impressive.
“At that time. It was the spot where the Sphinx and the Pyramids were.”
Short past tense sentences.
therefore.
It means that he got angry and destroyed all the rooms in his house.
After finishing his speech, Rick carefully checked Jinhyeok’s reaction.
To be frightened before the overwhelming divine power. Expecting you to regret what you did.
but.
“It’s a pity. There must have been quite a lot of treasure, but why did you destroy all of them? Anyway, there are more of them.”
Jinhyuk just clicked his tongue. He didn’t show any signs of being frightened.
“Jinhyuk… aren’t you afraid?”
The opponent is a lofty deity.
He is the absolute ruler who controls the top layer of the tower.
On the other hand, Jinhyeok was just a player who had just entered the tower and climbed the lower floors.
Comparing the two objects may be a contradictory story.
Even so.
“well. Should I be afraid of the 42nd floor, not even the 50th floor?”
Jinhyuk smiled.
What the hell is this confidence?
As if even God could handle it. That arrogance pierced the sky.
It is absurd at this point that he has such a lot of guts.
But why?
Rick didn’t think that confidence was outrageous. I don’t know why.
just.
His instincts, which had been honed through countless existences, just said that.
“Puhahaha! indeed! As expected, Jinhyeok-nim never disappoints. It’s funny. It’s really interesting. For a long time, I was going to get tired of life that revolves like a treadmill, but I don’t think living a long time is so bad.”
Rick roared with genuine satisfaction.
From the moment I first saw it, I was sure of one thing.
The charm of a player named Kang Jin-hyeok will not fade easily.
This time, I tried to create a difficult situation and open up the opponent….
As expected, I did not disappoint.
“I don’t know why, but I feel that way. The strange feeling that Jinhyeok-nim will be able to come all this way someday.”
“It’s strange.”
“It’s strange. What do you mean?”
“I thought I might be able to come here in the not too distant future.”
Indeed….
Still down that way.
The corners of Rick’s mouth went up even more.
“Chuck! I am also looking forward to that day. Of course, at that time, I would like you to bring a larger trade item than Medusa.”
After that, the two exchanged casual conversations.
In the meantime, I was able to arrive at a palace built with white marble.
This is the place where the Egyptian gods live.
[White Oasis].
“I’ll come inside for a while. We need to inform the guards of our arrival.”
“yes. Do by that way.”
Jinhyuk, who answered briefly, moistened his lower lip with his tongue.
‘I guess I’ll have to make some simple preparations before I meet the people of high rank.’
I had to anticipate what kind of event there would be, so I needed to prepare accordingly.
‘No matter how old I am, I meet deities, but I can’t run into them with my bare body.’
Jinhyeok activated his personal status window.
Current coin holding is 2153.188.
It was the result of the ‘Choice Passage’ video on the 5th floor or the videos that were previously uploaded that brought steady profits.
It was an amount to be compared with the coins owned by the entire large guild. It was absurdly insufficient to buy items that could counter the godhead.
But it doesn’t matter.
‘I haven’t been obsessed with coins since when.’
If it’s not enough, just find a solution on your own.
There is a way that only the deceased can do for the deceased.
Jinhyeok quickly started purchasing items from the ‘Coin Exchange’.
***
“What should I say about this. Indeed…”
“Puhaha! what’s the matter? I’m just having fun.”
“Stop talking stupid! Have you already forgotten how much I suffered because of that guy?”
Several voices came and went inside the palace.
It is an energy that cannot be matched together.
That’s right.
Because the people in front of Jinhyeok right now were worshiped under the name of ‘God’.
An absolute being who can bring down mountains with a gesture of his hand and influence the entire tower with his words.
They were the ones who dared not look directly at them.
However, the Godheads, who had always not lost their composure, were now panicking.
Horus who is dumbfounded.
Interesting Osiris.
Of course, Anubis had suffered a lot, so the situation was full of anger to the top of his head.
And at the center of it all was Jinhyeok.
“Is it too much to ask for one ‘egg’ stored here in exchange for handing over Medusa? Considering Horus-sama’s collection, I don’t think it’s a losing trade.”
Jinhyuk shrugged.
“I don’t know where you heard about the existence of eggs, but that’s not something humans can handle.”
Horus drew the line.
It’s obvious, but I didn’t even pretend to consider it.
“well. Even so, I am quite familiar with taming wild animals.”
There are no bad animals in the world.
There is a suitable method for taming a pet.
“To treat phantom beasts as normal animals. No matter how much you don’t know anything, you’re so ignorant.”
Horus let out a short sigh.
Osiris, on the other hand, stroked his chin and twinkled his eyes.
It was quite interesting to see them proudly making demands against themselves.
“why? give it a shot Do you think it will be fun?”
“Osiris!”
“No, you won’t be able to hatch him, let alone tame him? So let’s just pass it on. If you don’t like that, just take Medusa away.”
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
Osiris quietly revealed his power.
In an instant, the air began to freeze.
As expected, the divinity is at the level of causing disaster just by lightly expressing emotions.
As the situation was about to get tough, Rick, who was next to Jinhyeok, took a step forward.
“haha. You’re not saying you’re going to break the tower’s rules in front of this old man, are you? Player Kang Jin-hyeok came here as a guest of mine. It’s okay to play with humans, but please do so only within the set limits.”
“ah. I made a joke once. i know About that damn law.”
At the word “law,” Osiris scattered the magical energy he had gathered at once.
Right then.
“I don’t need all of them.”
Anubis, who had been grinding his teeth from the beginning, stepped forward.
cooong!
A mummy over 2m tall appeared in the air.
The bandages that wrapped around his body were typical of a mummy, but the mana flowing from his body was not inferior to any other dungeon boss.
“Five seconds. If you hold out against my opponent for just 5 seconds, I will exchange Medusa and Beast Eggs as you wish. If this is the case, it won’t break the law. how. Will you accept the terms?”
Anubis opened his fingers.
“Are you saying that you only have to hold out for five seconds?”
“Yes. However, keep in mind that war can take the life of an opponent at any time…”
Anubis’s words did not end.
The moment there was a gap between conversations. It was because a sword strike like lightning passed through Mira’s body.
“Kieeee…”
The huge mummy’s body was split in half.
staggering
The upper body, which lost its junction, fell over to the back.
The interior of the palace fell silent.
“Then I’ll take it as meaning that it doesn’t matter if I kill you.”
Jinhyuk smiled brightly.
