Solo Max-Level Newbie - Chapter 231
Episode 231. Holidays at the Citadel (3)
Interior of the Citadel.
The tables were lined with a variety of food.
“Stop making joint noises and move quickly. Dalgrak. The Master told you to hurry.”
“Dalgrak!”
“Da, dalgrak…”
T-Bone and the ancient soldiers walked frequently while wearing bow ties to help the guests.
“Does the food suit your taste?”
Jinhyeok smiled at the dignitaries sitting on either side of him.
“…Kuh!”
flinch
Namgungcheon tried to reach for the sword at his waist.
It must mean that being in the same space with Jinhyeok itself is unpleasant.
Then, Baek Seol-lin quickly intervened.
“It’s more palatable than I thought. Thanks for the hospitality.”
“Well, I’m grateful if you think of it that way, but I think that person over there who was bewitched by his guild thinks differently than Seollin Baek. Haha.”
“What, what!? It’s not all your fault that the Chinese Guild became such a mess…!”
“It’s okay. You didn’t come here to fight.”
“Ah, yes. I didn’t have the slightest intention of fighting, but why are you so hot-tempered? I’d rather have more patience with the goblins scattered around the tutorial field.”
“Ughhhhhh!”
Namgungcheon foamed at his mouth.
However, thanks to Baek Seol-lin and the rest of the Murim people, the worst did not happen.
“That’s enough of a provocation. What’s the reason you invited us here? You really didn’t invite us to eat, right?”
Are you still thinking about starting the main topic before the main dish comes out?
Anyway, they are friends who don’t even have table etiquette.
“It’s a bit early, but I’ll tell you anyway since they don’t seem interested in eating. As you know, both factions want free access to this castle. The strategic location is so important.”
This is what everyone knows by now.
That’s why he responded to the invitation that was close to notification.
“I’m going to give both sides a chance. The one with the higher toll. I’ll give you the right of way to this citadel.”
“A… price competition? Did you say price competition?”
Hovier jumped up from his seat.
My thick chin trembled as if I was so dumbfounded.
“What’s wrong?”
“Sounds of course! Didn’t you stand on the side of the Empire during the faction selection battle? If so, of course you should yield the castle to us. In return. What kind of nonsense is that?”
Hovier spat, a blood vessel standing in his throat.
Then right at that moment.
The smile disappeared from Jinhyuk’s face, who had been laughing all along.
“First, if you spit in front of food one more time, I’ll make sure you don’t tease that snout again.”
“Ju… Judung. No, what are you doing now?”
“This is my castle…”
Chi-tsu-tsu!
A cold life bloomed.
“Be polite enough for that.”
“Huh!”
Hovier had never touched a sword except that it was meant for courtesy.
Of course, I had no experience of being exposed to such a terrible aura.
rattle!
Hobiere’s body trembled like an aspen tree.
It’s been a long time since I’ve been in the middle of a long time.
Instead, only a frightened white pig remains.
“Heh heh. Player Kang Jin-hyeok. It seems our count made a mistake. Calm down and tell us what you want, and we will humbly accept it.”
One old knight quickly rectified the situation.
Albert Mecker.
He is the leader of the Knights of the Iron Cross and at the same time serves as an assistant to Hovier, the commander-in-chief.
‘Kang Jin-hyeok…’
At first, Albert also intended to use the title of Empire to suppress Jin-hyeok’s spirit.
No matter how strong a player is, the opponent will eventually be single.
It’s never comparable to a giant force.
but.
‘…I thought it was a wolf cub at best, but I was completely mistaken.’
A young age, not even 30 yet.
What do you mean anyway? What is this intimidation?
As if dealing with an absolute monarch who has crossed countless lines of death and has been worn out.
It is difficult to even breathe due to the stinging force transmitted to the skin.
If this kind of person really gets angry and pulls out his sword…
‘It’s impossible for us.’
The only knights who came here to escort the Count were over thirty… But if they dared
to attack, this side would be the one whose bones would be buried.
“Ah, Sir Albert. Izaga now…”
“I know, Mr. Count. First of all, let’s listen to player Kang Jin-hyeok’s suggestion.”
When the situation calmed down, Jinhyuk took out two pieces of white paper on the table.
“You have one chance. You just have to write down the best thing you can suggest and submit it to me.”
“You mean don’t look at the liver halfway?”
“Yes. That’s what it means.”
I’ve said enough to say with this.
“Then, please enjoy the rest of the meal slowly. T-Bone and the rest of his friends will guide you to bed. Oh! And… you’ll see me for a second.”
“Me, I haven’t finished eating yet.”
Chun Yoo-seong, who was pointed out, flinched back.
It was a movement that felt a strong will to move even 1cm further away.
“Let’s go to the rooftop and have a good meal. There’s an outdoor terrace where you can enjoy the moonlight night. If it’s there, even if you push a person outside, neither the mouse nor the bird will notice.”
“Poem, I don’t like it.”
Chun Youseong shook his head with a terrified face.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t have a choice. The condition of borrowing you today is mine to Moorim.”
“That, it can’t be! No way, is that statement true?”
“I’m sorry. If you refuse, I threatened to block the entry itself…”
Seol-Lin Baek was speechless.
good.
Now, Baek Seol-lin’s consent must have been obtained. Now, the time for revenge has arrived.
It feels like my fingertips are thrilled to know how much I have to torture myself to the point of death.
‘If you put on a maid outfit and get 100 million views on View Tube, you’ll see it, and if it’s not enough, you’ll have to lose one for each number of views.’
It seemed like that would alleviate a little bit of what had accumulated so far.
It was when Jinhyeok, who had made a decision, was about to stand up.
Creepy!
The feeling he had felt before passed through his heart once again.
A terrifying and strange feeling of discomfort.
‘I can’t believe this…’
Jinhyeok raised his head.
And it’s good to say that it’s almost simultaneous.
[Damn the castle lord! enemy! Space movement coordinates were stamped inside this fortress!] The
white tree, Tangrasil, shouted through telephony.
As expected, the reverberation of this magical power was a phenomenon that appeared due to spatial movement from a very far place.
surprise attack.
A very strong guy is coming too.
‘If it was meant to be caught off guard, then it must have been stabbed when it hurt the most.’
Due to one battle, the barrier of Tangrasil is not functioning properly.
Because of this, even the barriers of Tangrasil could not block this great magic.
The rest of the room felt the same as the rest of the room.
“What the hell is this…!”
“Is this guy with a swollen liver? To think there’s a guy who’s arguing with this member.”
Baek Seol-rin and Namgung-cheon drew their swords.
“Your Excellency Count. We’ll take you behind us!”
“Yes, yes. Don’t let me touch a single hair on my body.”
The knights of the Empire also summoned Titans to protect Hovier.
1 sec. 2 seconds. and 3 seconds.
Wow!
A roar echoed throughout the castle.
＊＊＊
[The gate is activated!]
With a red status window.
The ground is cracked.
Soon after, a skull covered in flames and lava emerged from the deep abyss.
Hwareuk!
Roaring!
The beautiful garden began to turn into a sea of fire in an instant.
“Kreurreu ….”
A dark red scare flowed from the mouth of the Flame Skull.
Jinhyuk frowned.
shit. All in all, this guy is coming.
I had expected that something out of the ordinary would come, but I had no idea that such an out-of-standard monster would appear.
‘Did the Mine Association use an expedient?’
It must have been the next best thing for those who hadn’t gotten their hands on some of the relics, including the ‘Filth-Eating Jar’ they stole from the psychiatric ward.
After wasting time like this, he must be thinking of getting a hidden piece to break through the 15th floor where the Witch of Weeping is located.
‘Because you can bind me and Imperial Murim at the same time… I guess it’s the most efficient move out of all possible moves.’
Jinhyeok took out the longbow ‘molar’ from the subspace inventory.
You can’t do this to deal with that guy.
“Ellis!”
Jinhyeok called Alice.
“Yes! Here it is.”
[The magical energy injected into the ‘Ring of Braham’ is reduced!]
Jinhyeok dismantled Elise’s seal one more step.
Chunk!
As the ban was lifted, Alice’s height increased by about 5cm.
“I’ll give you a mission to do from now on. Listen carefully.”
“Well, if I don’t do this, it will become a sea of fire. So what should I do for you?”
“There must be someone who opens the gate and binds the Flame Skull to the real world. Find him and get rid of him.”
In order to mortally wound the Flame Skull, you must first deal with the necromancer who brought him to this floor.
He must be hiding somewhere around here and supplying mana.
The only way to win would be to get rid of that goddamn devil.
and.
Out of the two, only one Ellis can track the light demon.
Since the seal was dismantled one step further, the magical power perception must have risen to an incomparable level.
“Can you survive without me?”
“I’ll try to pull the time as much as possible. If possible, please don’t exceed 30 minutes.”
If he did, the entire base he had worked so hard for might turn into ashes.
It was then.
“For this to happen at the celebration of becoming the lord of the castle… After all, it’s an event worthy of you. Maybe the saying good and punished is true.”
Chun Yuseong clicked his tongue from the side.
“How come you look like you’re cool inside?”
“That can’t be the case. It’s a sad face because a long-awaited event has been ruined.”
Uh… See that corner of his mouth going up?
‘You really are dead. See you later.’
Jinhyeok, who had bitten his molars, kicked off his seat and ran.
Alice flew out of the citadel. Wolyeong and Andrea also followed Jinhyeok and prepared for the upcoming battle.
Whoops!
Kwaaang!
The tree trunk of Tangrasil temporarily stopped the movement of the Flame Skeleton.
But it was only for a short while.
When the volcanic bombs scattered all at once, all the plants were engulfed in flames and started to burn.
“Koooooo!”
It was as if the devil appeared from hell and reenacted a scene from the Book of Revelation.
Jinhyeok, who was seated by the window, put a protest on his ‘molar’.
Parts!
The red arrow made with magical power burned fiercely.
‘Whoa…’
Calmly adjust your breathing and wait for the optimal timing.
The mana that ran wildly along the veins subsided at some point.
…now!
[Lv8 ‘Red Magic Bullet’ is activated!]
The red flash flickers.
[Lv11 ‘Glacial Formation’ is activated!]
Then, an ice blade that split into hundreds of pieces wrapped around the flash.
[Lv9 ‘Daylight’ is activated!]
Finally, dazzling brilliance covered them all.
A sniper that combines three skills.
Huge magic power stretched towards the flame skull.
