Solo Max-Level Newbie - Chapter 247

Episode 247. Yongsalgeom (龍殺劍) ‘Balmung’ (1)

Among the existing items, there is a class even in the highest classified holy relic.

Naturally.

Because the sword used by an unknown general whose few lines are not recorded in history and the hammer of Thor, a great hero in Norse mythology, could not be treated in the same class.

Because of this, in the Tower of Trials, the red-o-cho-pa-boy. The grade of the relic was measured by dividing it into seven colors.

and.

‘Balmung’, a dragon-killing sword stored in the basement of the empire.

This great sword was a top-notch holy relic that was judged to be ‘indigo’.

‘Even to deal with the Dragons. And in order to face them, we must secure them.’

Of course, there are some challenges that need to be addressed in order to do so.

“We’ll be leaving in 30 minutes.”

Jinhyeok started the timer.

“30 minutes…. I think I can finish the preparations I need to explore.”

“Then, I’ll see you in front of the grave then.”

Of course, there will be guards and guards on the way to the tomb.

It was so easy for the two of them to get rid of the common soldiers.

Jinhyeok, who came out of Pesis’s room, headed to the terrace with a clear view of the lake and night view of the emperor.

It is not only deserted, but also a perfect place to enjoy the scenery.

Dawn locked in silence.

The lake with the stars and the moon seemed to make me forget all my worries and worries.

“…”

I always think, but there are many attractions in the Tower of Trials.

It was nice to be alone in contemplation.

It was also optimized for conversation without worrying about someone overhearing.

“I know you’re watching, so why don’t you come out now?”

Jinhyuk muttered into the air.

OK.

[Hoo. Players can’t peek through the barrier, so how did they notice my presence?]

Beriel spoke to me.

“Because of your personality, there’s no way you’ll just help and disappear. I thought you’d be sneakily stalking me up there. As expected, I was right.”

[This is the first time a person has been so unconcerned with me. This is so… the wild one is just on our side. How is it? To be my black apostle? If it’s you, you can make me a perfect apostle by pouring my all into it. If there’s anything else you wish for, I can make it come true for you.]

“I know I’ve already rejected that once, but don’t you remember? Did you say that a tiger cub couldn’t go under a Chihuahua?”

Thank you for helping me, but I have no intention of selling my soul for that.

Of course, I had no intention of cutting it off completely.

Being acquainted with a high-ranking deity has helped me a lot in many ways.

[Hmm. Is it still a harsh answer? You’d better think carefully. The demon lords other than me don’t think well of you. Rather, they feel that it is a threat that needs to be eliminated quickly.]

That’s right, I guess.

It was expected that the demon lords and demons would be grinding their teeth.

So…

“Wouldn’t it be fine if I just maintained a good relationship with you? Then I think it’s worth trying against the rest of the Demon Kings to some extent.”

[I don’t know if you become my apostle. You , who

only gains and pretends not to know right away… Why do I have to help you from now on?

Jinhyeok spoke calmly.

and to that remark.

Beriel’s grinning voice disappeared like a lie.

Silence ensued.

It was only a few seconds in real time, but it felt like an eternity.

[You… what the hell are you? How does the player know about the existence of one of the tower’s deepest secrets, the crown? No, more than that, you know the location?]

The emotion coming out of his voice was unmistakably a sense of bewilderment.

That’s right.

The crown is a holy relic that is essential for challenging the top of the tower, and at the same time, it was also a symbol of dominance at the top level.

The situation is that not only the gods but also the demon king and the ancestors are anxious to get this crown.

But does one player know that?

It was too low quality to even be called a joke.

It’s so hard to use even at a drinking party.

if.

If it wasn’t for Jinhyeok who said this, he would have thought that this was nonsense worth listening to.

“Don’t think of me as an ordinary player. Haven’t you forgotten already? there is.”

The authenticity of the information is not important right now.

It’s not too late to figure out the truth later, even if it’s slow.

The important thing now was that other demon lords didn’t know about this attractive lure.

If it’s false, then it’s only if you make them pay for it later.

If it is true, you will be able to obtain the crown in an overwhelmingly advantageous position.

Low risk high return.

The worry didn’t last long.

[Puhaha! That’s funny! fun! okay. This is the kind of person I acknowledged. good night. I’ll make it match your rhythm.]

Beriel burst into madness as if she was genuinely happy.

＊＊＊

After the chat with Beriel.

Jinhyeok and Pesis visited the tomb of the emperor who had a fierce battle once again.

“What are you going to do now?”

“Please wait here for a moment.”

Jinhyuk slowly examined the gap in the floor.

The shadows of the statues standing on either side cleverly obscured the view… but if

you look closely, there is a groove the size of half a grain of rice.

‘Is this the starting point?’

First one.

The next one was probably left, right?

Jinhyuk quickly began to scan his surroundings.

Pillars and walls in a matter of minutes. And even between the statues, I was able to find a groove.

A total of 6 numbers.

[Lv10 ‘Flame of the Beginning’ is activated.]

When the flames connected the grooves in a straight line, a huge hexadecimal star appeared.

at the same time.

Whoa!

Red letters began to appear on the surface.

It was the unique language of the imperial family that only appeared when heat was applied at the correct temperature.

“….”

Pesis looked at Jinhyeok as if he was amazed.

Having found the entrance to a passage that even the royal family didn’t know about, I couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.

Phesis also saw information about the entrance in ancient texts, but was not confident to open the door in such a short time.

“However, you can’t go down here just by finding the entrance. I need a key…”

“It’s a proof that can prove Reinhardt.”

Blood, saliva, etc.

Only by proving Reinhardt’s blood relative could the entrance be opened.

“you’re right.”

“That’s what I brought, of course.”

Jinhyeok took out a golden drinking glass from the subspace inventory.

I stole what the emperor drank at the grand banquet a few hours ago.

When he was moderately drunk, he exchanged the glass with Chun You-seong’s, so even if the culprit is caught, the target of the blasphemy will be Chun You-seong.

In addition, the alibi was also perfect because Wol-yeong ordered them to switch.

‘The perfect crime is not impossible.’

It’s just lack of effort.

It was the moment when I was immersed in mid-air and watched CSI diligently.

Shut up!

Jinhyeok aligned the surface of the glass with the groove.

Then right at that moment.

Cuckoo coo!

A low, heavy voice echoed through the tomb.

The floor started cracking like Tetris, and soon enough space was created for one person.

[The Hidden Place ‘Where the Dragon Sleeps’ is open.]

“Then, shall we go?”

Jinhyeok smiled brightly at Pesis, who had a blank expression.

＊＊＊

A musty, damp smell stung my nose.

The interior was filled with cobwebs and dust because no one had been there for a long time.

“From now on, we need Mr. Pesis’ help.”

What was recorded in the literature was only about how to open the entrance.

In order to break through the many traps inside, you need the ability of explorer Pesis.

“I’ll try it, but this is the first time I’ve ever been to a high-ranking expedition. Really. Thanks to Jinhyeok-nim, I’ve had a lot of different experiences.”

“You mean good?”

“Of course. The explorer’s blood boils. Huhu.”

[Pesis pulls out Lv16 ‘Multidimensional Map’.]

Pesis with a flushed face pulled out a translucent map.

On the 3D map of the interior, various traps were marked by color.

The flame-shaped red model and… the black sphere also look quite dangerous.

I wonder if the blue ice crystal shape is a trap related to the ice property?

Looking at it from the side, I had no idea how the trap was triggered and how to avoid it.

“…It’s definitely difficult. It looks formidable everywhere you go.”

Phesis looked at the map with a serious face.

If Pesis, who has explored many forbidden areas so far, can say this, it must be that the difficulty here is outside the norm.

Well, that’s why he kept Balmun.

“But isn’t there a place that’s most likely?”

“There’s one, but…”

Phesis blurted out.

“Is something wrong?”

“Some traps require someone else to be trapped while one person goes through them. It’s a structure that’s impossible to avoid or block.”

“We need a scapegoat… that’s what you’re saying.”

“Yes…”

“First of all, let’s go. If that’s the case, I think there’s a way to solve it somehow.”

Pesis flinched at Jinhyeok’s words.

It was because the personality Jinhyeok showed in the past few days had the potential to make him the scapegoat.

But I couldn’t bring myself to say those words out of my mouth.

How long did he walk down the tangled passageways along Pesis?

The air that hovered in the aisle changed.

A cool feeling passed through his skin.

This point coincides with the location of the ice crystal shape seen on the map.

“This was the limit of avoiding the trap. Now, take a look.”

Phesis picked up a small stone and threw it forward.

The moment the stone that was drawing a parabola passed through a certain part in the air.

Jigsaw Jigsaw!

Thin streams of ice spewing from both sides froze the entire stone.

The speed of freezing was also speed, but the more shocking thing was that the ice stream moved along the trajectory of the stone.

“Hey. In addition to the tracking magic… It has acceleration and strengthening magic. All of them are at the level of 8th circle or higher.”

“You noticed, too. It even comes with a special effect that accelerates the freezing speed if you try to block it with your unique abilities and skills.”

In a word, it means that it is close to impossible to pass through in a normal way.

But don’t worry.

Because I had something prepared for this time.

“Everyone, come out for a second.”

Jinhyeok opened the subspace inventory and called a number of summons.

T-Bone and the ancient soldiers appeared first.

Dalgrak. Dalgrak.

Bones moved left and right.

“master. What’s going on?”

T-Bone raised a question mark.

“It’s nothing. They say they need to break through the trap, but they say they need strength.”

“Yes?”

“You’re undead.”

“Yeah, that’s true.”

“Then, you won’t die.”

There is no more perfect scapegoat than this.

I’ll be resurrected again.

“Eh, Master… Anyway. To go through that road naked…”

“Huh?”

T-Bone whined, and Jinhyeok’s eyebrows curled backwards.

Has there been less discipline lately?

It runs too much.

It’s not even fully Tang army, this is what.

“Sweet potato. Aren’t you going to educate your children correctly?”

Jinhyeok’s eyes

turned to the sweet potato that came out late.

“Mosquito?” His big amber eyes

shook slightly

. I can’t.

Originally, this kind of thing had to be done at the top to go smoothly. It

‘s also known as grinding down.

The sweet potato caught in the subspace inventory is at the top of the list.

“Mosquito. Mosquito!”

Sweet

Potato bit T-Bone.

Mush.

Clear saliva flowed down the white

bone .

Or would you like to run forward quickly?”

“Go, I’ll go. master. I can withstand the cold amazingly well.”

“Dalgrak. Dalgrak!”

T-Bone and the ancient soldiers scrambled forward.
