Solo Max-Level Newbie - Chapter 235
Episode 235. Guntaper’s blood relative ‘Antrad’ (2)
Multiple strong magic ritual.
The beam of light rising from the ground means that a new demon is manifesting.
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
As the ground cracked, the sky began to open.
Red pillars flickered one by one through the dark clouds.
Beyond forests and mountains…
…Each demon is waking up at a distance of several hundred kilometers.
‘Antrad’ from the heat hell.
‘Magdra’ from the Ice Spirit Hell.
‘Valmarielle’ from extreme poison hell.
‘Shelkerim’ from Mugan Hell.
The familiar magical power transmitted from afar was the kind that I couldn’t forget even if I wanted to.
‘Including the Antrads that have manifested here, there are four of them… I guess.’
Jinhyuk’s eyes narrowed.
It was within the expected range for the demons to gather the holy relics and bring them to Antrad, but I thought they would bring the other three.
This is impossible due to the structure of the system.
No…
Actually, there is only one way.
But the number of cases it meant was the kind I wanted to put off for last.
Jinhyeok, who assumed the worst, soon shaved his head.
‘What we need to focus on now is to deal with the demonic beasts that have manifested.’
the problem is.
It’s a way to block the rest of the monsters except for Antrad…
Someone else over there has to step up and give it to them.
They are also very talented.
The worry didn’t last long.
[Baeksa.]
Jinhyeok called an assistant not far from the citadel through the telephony.
A top ranker who is Dark Emperor’s aide and is promised to be his hands and feet for the time being.
Baeksa and Shadows would be able to entrust this task.
[I asked why they didn’t look for us even though the inside of the castle was in a sea of fire. Now it’s calling.]
The voice of the Baeksa returned as if he had waited.
Well, there is no way you wouldn’t notice that the demons of the upper layer came out.
[If you know, the conversation will be faster.]
[I’m sorry, but that guy is impossible even if we all attack him. Personally, I recommend running away rather than fighting back.]
[I’ll take care of this guy. I have another request for you guys.]
[Are you talking about the rest of the Witchbeasts from the Pillar of Light? So are those guys. It’s like a natural disaster that we can’t do anything about.]
[I’m not asking you to do anything. Instead, explain the current situation to people who can do it and ask for help.]
[If that’s possible… a person?]
[Teacher.]
Celgyerim of Mugan Hell manifested toward Murim.
I need the help of the Dark Emperor to stop him.
[You are asking too much. No matter how much the dark emperor sees you as pretty. Do you think you’ll do this?]
[Well. I think a teacher
would do that much for a cute disciple?
He is infinitely cruel to his enemies, but gives everything to those he once thought were on his side.
That was the darkness that Jinhyeok remembered.
[…what’s good. I decided to act as your limb, so don’t regret it later.]
[And one more thing.]
[Hmm?]
[I have a colleague in the Holy Kingdom. Her name is Teresa. Tell them to ask for Magdra, who has manifested near the Holy Kingdom.]
[Teresara… Okay. That’s how I tell it.]
The final Belmariel side has no sharp edges.
I can only hope that the Empire and Moorim will move as much as possible.
It was just then that Jinhyeok took up the transmission.
“Have you lost your mind because all your plans have been ruined? Why are you stuck on the spot?”
“Ah. Sorry. I was thinking about something else for a while. I was thinking about how to cook all of you.”
“It’s not like the snout was frozen. Yes. Rather than giving up everything, resisting vigorously would have the taste of being cut down.”
Antrad slowly stretched out his hand toward the air.
Quadruped!
A crack occurred in the space, and the huge sword on the other side of the dimensional wall slowly revealed its appearance.
[Antrad summons Lv30 ‘Sword of Flame’.]
All the moisture in the air disappeared.
Hot.
Unexpected heat came to my skin.
It is as if hell itself has been brought into the present world.
This is the power possessed by the blood relatives of the upper demons.
pounding! pounding! pounding!
Jinhyuk’s heart beat fast.
Not because of fear.
Rather, at the current point where the level is less than 100. It’s because it’s crazy how much you can fight against an enemy twice that size.
‘Yes, this is the tower of trials.’
It’s no fun if the difficulty is easy. There is no sense of achievement in perfection without variables.
Through a difficult and difficult road.
To obtain the reward at the end.
That’s why I was able to see the top of this world.
Jinhyuk once again confirmed the information obtained through the ‘Eye of Gluttony’.
[Antrad]
Race: Asmodian
Age: 5583
Level: 165
Strength 126 Agility 115 Stamina 382 Magical Power 177 Control of Fire 224
Inherent Ability: Will of Fire
Skill: ‘Borderline of Demon World’ Lv35 ‘Fear of Hell’ Lv2 ‘Unbreakable Bone’ Lv22 ‘ Resting Place of the Dead’ Lv22 ‘Sword of Flame’ Lv30 ‘End of Hour’ Lv19
Detailed Description: Antrad is a powerful beast that plays a leading role in the war of the Pandemonium. His basic health and defense are so high, and his attack power is so excellent that ordinary players cannot even scratch his body.
Copy condition: It is impossible for a player who has just entered the middle layer of the tower to win against Antrad.
Just survive the frontal attack of Antrad. Doing so will allow you to copy one of Antrad’s unique abilities and skills.
(Required time: 30m / If the distance from the target is more than 100m, it is considered a failure.) A
wide gap.
For this reason, the system also put forward a condition for survival, not extinction.
Of course, even this is not an easy task.
In the limited space of 100m, I had to deal with Antrad, who took out the sword of flame.
‘If you don’t completely avoid every attack or reduce the power by half through skills, you will die as it is.’
At first glance, it looks easy, but in fact, it was one of the most difficult of the copying conditions that have come out so far.
But with high risk comes high return.
‘The opportunity to copy the abilities of the upper echelons must be seized unconditionally.’
No wonder.
Antrad’s ability had a value that could not be compared to that of players or residents.
Jinhyeok took his stance.
Whoa!
Walls made of glacial molding and 4-star barriers engraved with ancient runes spread out in layers.
And right at that moment.
“You’re arrogant! You’re going to block my attack with that ice powder!?”
Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah Kwah!
The stream of fire crashed head-on into the ice shield.
Due to the high heat, all the grass around it turned into ashes. Even the magic beasts nearby were caught in the heat.
***
Chiyiik!
A scorching heat gushed from the ground.
Even with just a light swing of the sword, the wounds on the ground seemed like they would never be erased.
However, even in the hot wind, the barrier made of ice was barely maintaining its shape.
Although it was at a level that was almost half-destroyed.
“Are you okay…?”
Chun Yoo-seong, who was standing next to Jin-hyeok, opened his mouth.
“It’s okay. You’re nothing like a young man.”
Smoke billowing from the whole body.
It seems that even the sword shield was not able to offset all the shock.
“You should consider yourself lucky just to have survived. More than that, the operation to collect demons was discovered, so what are you going to do now?”
The only number of trumpets prepared was exposed before it even started.
It would be difficult to bring in a high-ranking monster capable of dealing with Antrad even if he used the magic jade that was still lacking.
but.
There was one thing Antrad overlooked as well.
The fact that the lack of magic can be covered with enough magic.
[Inherent ability ‘Grave of Sword’ is activated!]
Different from blood magic.
Much purer and darker magic radiated from Jinhyeok’s fingertips.
‘It was fortunate that I only used Blood Demon instead of the Sword Grave in case anyone noticed.’
Hide 30% of your skills.
I never thought this word would be so useful.
That’s how the next best thing to catch off guard by inducing the opponent’s vigilance began to shine.
Kwadeuk!
Quadduk!
The surface of the demons cracked all at once, and the black smoke inside them flowed out.
‘I don’t have enough magic, but a good guy should come
.
And after a while,
“Kieeaek!”
A sharp scream erupted from beneath the ground.
…Amazing, Great.
What appeared was a huge insect up to 10 meters in size.
burrowing spider.
He is a demon scavenger whose only purpose is to prey, earning him the nickname “evil eater.”
Through the still thick smoke, I threw myself toward Antrad, where a tunnel spider was blocking my way.
Wow!
Antrad swung the sword, but the tunnel spider also received the attack with its sharp claws.
“How the hell…!?”
The flames rising from Antrad’s eyes shook violently.
A high-level magic beast that can never be summoned when looking at the amount of demons.
With such a pesky existence suddenly popping up, of course I was taken aback.
However, before I could figure out the reason, the tunnel spider’s attack continued.
Whoops!
Green bodily fluid passed between Antrad’s ribs and scorched the ground.
It is a strong acidic poison.
Quaang! bang! bang!
Roaring!
In addition, the outer skin was so thick that even fire could not easily stop it.
“Kieek!”
“Damn worms, who dares to point their teeth at anyone! It looks like they’ve lost their fear because they’re obsessed with their prey.”
Antrad roared wildly.
The two monsters, who gave a tremendous sense of intimidation just by their size, took out their weapons to end each other’s lives.
***
A brief gap caused by the tunnel spider.
Jinhyeok took advantage of the gap to quickly recover his magic and physical strength.
[I used Lv5 ‘Jintaecheonghwarangsimbeop’.]
[I activate Lv6 ‘Shallow Breath’.]
Due to the two auxiliary skills, magic spread along the blood vessels to every corner.
“Huuu… good.”
He managed his breathing, healed his wounds, and created a condition that allowed him to move.
“Thanks to you, we’ve passed the crisis. Now let’s get out of here while that spider rampages.”
“No. We will not run away.”
“what?”
At Jinhyeok’s words, Cheon Yuseong’s eyebrows curled in a reversed shape.
“You mean, do you want to fight? With that monster?
” “Opportunities to face higher level monsters don’t come very often.”
Of course, just running around while wasting time is enough to copy the ability.
But .
No.
The reward that can only be obtained by hunting Antrad.
If even the system makes it possible to do what was considered impossible…
That will be the cornerstone for overwhelming growth
. Would you risk your life for a reward? No matter how old you are, it’s impossible.”
That’s right.
It’s impossible to do it alone.
“Yooseong, isn’t it?” Jinhyeok
called
Cheon Yooseong’s name for the first time
. The strong one who
together can create a sword that can cut through the flames of Antrad and cut its
bones
.
