Solo Max-Level Newbie - Chapter 267
Episode 267. Introduction to the field theory (1)
The gaze crosses.
Jinhyeok put his molars in.
In order to achieve the copy condition, only ‘Curse’ and ‘Barrier’ should be used.
From now on, we have to fight in a slightly different way than before.
But just then
The Weeping Witch’s gaze turned towards the end of the ruins.
“I was wondering why you were so confident.
“Shut up? What do you mean?”
“Don’t pretend. I’ve confirmed that there are about 20 people at the entrance to the room.”
Twenty people worthy of coming here… No way?
Something passed through Jinhyuk’s mind.
The forces that participated in this raid and had not yet appeared.
‘Dangun Guild.’
I thought he was on the side of Gandara and Mine, but he seems to have kicked the offer.
I thought that if it was a large guild, there would be only those who would blindly blind themselves to self-interest,
but it seems that there are still decent people.
I really would have liked it if I hadn’t caught the surprise attack.
shit.
You can see black fluid gathering around the Wailing Witch.
He was trying to activate his worst skill, ‘Black Tears’.
This is dangerous.
“You got caught! Avoid!”
Jinhyeok shouted.
at the same time.
Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah!
Black waves flooded towards the entrance.
“Uh… uh huh?”
“Bar, Park hyung. Something’s coming!”
“Damn it. Does that mean that the magic canceling skill was discovered?”
“Formation equipped! Turn on all survival skills!”
A scream erupted from the Dangun guild hiding behind the stone statues of the monsters.
Park Jeong-jin, who was at the forefront, stretched out his shield with dazzling brilliance.
[Park Jung-jin activates his unique ability ‘Sacred Bond’!]
The golden shield completely covered the entire raid centered on the shield.
Wow!
When the black waves collided with the divine shield, colorful sparks flew in all directions.
“…it was close.”
Park Jeong-jin let out a sigh of relief.
“Drop the shield!”
“Kang… Player Jinhyeok? Throw away your shield. What do you mean by that?”
“Throw it away now!”
Even if you block the black tears, it doesn’t stop them.
It is because it is only when it comes into contact with the object that it exhibits its true value.
Tsutsutsutsu!
A special power that transforms anything it touches.
Black tears belonged to the most heterogeneous axis among curses.
[‘Black Tears’ seeped into the shield.]
[The shield is contaminated!]
When it touches a creature, it causes a frenzied optical illusion mutation.
Even when it comes into contact with inanimate objects, it has created all kinds of variables that are difficult to predict.
Truly unpredictable.
Therefore, the ripple effect of this ability was different from other abilities.
Even the witch of wailing, who was in charge of the ability, couldn’t completely control this ability.
“Keeeeeee!”
The shield opened its mouth and started shaking wildly.
There is no monster at all with its sharp teeth and spitting black liquid.
“I-I can’t do this.”
Park Jung-jin was startled and threw away his shield.
The ability to imbue an item with life.
Park Jeong-jin thought that he had experienced extraordinary abilities until now, but this kind of bizarre ability was the first time I swear.
Isn’t one of the female players twisting her whole body with a shrill scream?
“Turn it off… kyaaaaagh!”
“So, Song, wake up. Park hyung! You can’t touch that thing. It’s like a zombie virus that changes people!”
“Damn it… you mean you can’t block it and you have to avoid it?”
It’s an absurd ability.
Being unable to block it with a divine class meant that it could not be counteracted with any other ability.
The advantage of surprise has disappeared, and the space to avoid is not wide, so the advantage of numbers has become a weakness.
while everyone was in a panic.
“Tristan.”
The Witch of Weeping looked at Mine next to her.
“Please speak.”
“I’ll leave the obstructionists up to you. It seems that the three humans you dealt with earlier have also recovered, so don’t forget to take your breath away.”
Maria, Yoo Yeon-hwa, and Lee Tae-min finished preparing to fight again.
It was thanks to Jinhyeok’s additional distribution of mana restorative drink and breathing.
“Hmm. I’m not saying that I have to deal with all of them by myself, right?”
“Crap. Anyway, can I send you alone? I’ll make sure to give you strong support. You don’t have to worry too much. However, I’m a little bit less intelligent, so I hope you can finish it properly.”
Shields and players weren’t the only ones infected by the Black Tears.
The reason why the stone statues of various monsters were brought here.
It was meant to be used just like this.
[The sleeping monster statues are awakening!]
Ududuk! Wooduk! …Koo Kung!
“Koooooo!”
“Wow!”
A huge number of monsters raised their bodies with their eyes shining.
Ogres and trolls, lizardmen and menticores, and more.
All of them were medium-sized or stronger names that the Witch of Lamentation had specially selected and collected.
“Keugh…”
Park Jeong-jin gently bit his lower lip.
I came here to help Jinhyeok, but I couldn’t even help, and I was stuck behind the scenes.
“Bar, Park hyung.”
“At least we should be wasting our time. At least not getting in the way.”
If you deal with monsters, you will be able to make Jinhyeok focus on the 1:1 confrontation with the boss.
That alone was reason enough to come here.
‘If I can somehow join the three people over there, I’ll be able to hold out for as long as possible.’
If Lee Tae-min’s drones and Yoo Yeon-hwa’s tanking Maria’s firepower are added, even medium-sized monsters won’t be pushed back easily.
The worry didn’t last long.
“I’ll clear the road to that place. I’ll lead the way, so you guys cover the flanks.”
“Damn it. He said he would only let me walk on a flowery path.”
“When I die, I’ll become a bachelor ghost and follow you around. Remember, I haven’t even gotten married yet.”
＊＊＊
“Do you care about other humans?”
The Weeping Witch opened her mouth.
“Not so much. Everyone can protect one’s own body.”
“Whoa. You look quite impatient for that. But don’t fret too much. The guys who came here will get along well in the afterlife anyway.”
“I’m sorry, but I’m from Confucianism. I’ll send the elders first, just like Jang Yu-yuseo.”
“Really. You and your audience have a knack for scratching your temper. Do you think that defeating an apostle can kill me too? Seriously?”
“I wouldn’t have come all the way here if you weren’t the only one who couldn’t cook on my own.”
Jinhyuk shrugged.
“Okay… Let’s see where I can get my first move. I hope you live up to half of my expectations. Don’t be too boring.”
Swoop.
The worn-out arm moved to the left.
[The curse ‘Blood Melting’ is activated!]
A pentacle flickered under Jinhyeok’s feet.
With a curse that melts all the hemoglobin in the blood, it maximizes its efficiency by overlapping a 4-star ‘amplification’ barrier.
[The effects of curses and barriers increase by 30% due to the ‘contamination stat’!] It
‘s a bonus that the effects of unique stats are added.
“It’s too late now. It can’t be avoided or prevented.”
A mischievous smile crept across the witch’s lips.
Whoops!
The red light blinked.
however.
“Hmm?”
The Weeping Witch tilted her head.
Obviously, the spell was properly expressed, but the opponent who had to vomit blood from his eyes and mouth was too fine.
…what?
It didn’t take long before he realized the identity of the deep sense of incongruity.
No way…
“My spell… destroyed? As soon as I saw the pattern…?”
It’s absolutely unbelievable.
Is it possible to grasp and analyze a spell that can be combined with thousands and tens of thousands in less than a second?
Even worn-out witches prepare in advance through defensive barriers. After allowing the opponent’s attack, he did not destroy it.
Because it was too risky.
“Well, it’s nothing special. I’ve been studying barriers a lot lately. Curse was originally my area of confidence.”
“Don’t be ridiculous! Are you saying that my technique is so lax that you can recognize it just by flipping through a few pages!”
“If it’s unfair, why didn’t you come up with a better combination? It’s not easy to read because you use a 4-star barrier.”
A soft light rose from Jinhyuk’s shoulder.
The ancient rune language has bloomed, boasting a splendid appearance.
“It’s a type of imprint… You must have been a barrier master. Yes. That’s why you were so proud of yourself.”
“Hoh. But it looks like your eyes aren’t gnarled.”
Even though he didn’t seem to know that it was the imprint of the moon.
Just knowing that this is the proof of the master of the barrier is amazing.
“I guess you weren’t a complete kid. Come on. Like you said, if you have a shallow knowledge of barriers, I’ll raise the level of difficulty a bit more.”
The Witch of Weeping moved both hands this time.
Parts Tsutsu!
Rune words were overlaid on top of the pentagram, and three barriers stretched to the side.
Because he used two hands, the speed of calculation and the perfection of the formula increased several times compared to before.
“No matter how much I make a living in the barrier, I will not be able to get out of it alive.”
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
The entire ruins were in a state of turmoil.
The mixture of sticky magic and curses made my skin sting as if it were going to burn.
Indeed…
Seeing that he activated an advanced spell through multiple calculations, I thought that the three witches were witches.
How skilled do you have to be to be able to do something like that? I thought that.
of course.
From a position overlooking such a state… It was just a special level, but.
Moment.
A crack appeared in the center, which is the root of the pentagram.
“What, what?”
The Witch of Weeping, who was sure of victory, widened her eyes.
[The ‘imprint of the moon’ blooms.]
Kwaddeuk!
Kwadeuk!
The three barriers were shattered like glass windows.
“Didn’t I tell you? Let’s fight with a slightly stronger barrier.”
Over Jinhyeok’s shoulder, the barriers in the form of a hexagram began to appear one by one.
Three… four and five.
When the number of barriers reached ten, the Weeping Witch’s mouth was gaping open.
“I meant to use your full strength.”
Jinhyuk snapped his fingers.
＊＊＊
Whoops!
This time, a rune word I had never seen before was drawn at the feet of the Wailing Witch.
It is similar to the pentagram used earlier.
“This, this, this…!”
The ability to build a barrier is not high.
It was weak enough that there was no need to compare it to anything like a curse.
If you want to destroy it, you can do anything.
If you are a member of the Grand Witch Council…! A thing of such a low standard can be reduced to dust in one go!
but.
“…uh?”
Wow!
A huge explosion occurred before the structure of the formula could be disassembled.
“Gagging. Cool! Keek!”
The Weeping Witch staggered through the smoke and leaped out to the other side.
His face, stained with bewilderment, was filled with only doubts.
why.
Why!
Didn’t you understand the link between the most basic formulas?
Right then.
A smirking voice came from behind.
“I’ll say it again, it doesn’t matter how many star barriers or how powerful the curse was mixed.”
That combination is what matters.
No matter how insignificant or low-grade barriers are, if they are combined with appropriate barriers or curses, they can exert more power than that.
“If you want to fight me properly, take out the black tears. Otherwise, the story won’t progress.”
“Lee Ik! How dare you lecture me? I don’t even have to bring out black tears. I can tear you to pieces with just my pure skills!”
[Curse ‘Royal type(車裂刑)’ is activated!]
[7-star barrier ‘Proliferation’ is activated!]
Numerous rune words embroidered the air.
The red pentagrams were scattered in a dizzying fashion.
The ten barriers that Jinhyeok used earlier were too many for a single barrier master to handle, but this was well over 30 times that number.
It was to the point where the color of the sky had changed.
“…It’s spectacular.”
Jinhyuk let out a small exclamation.
It was not so easy to see such splendid and numerous small barriers.
“Huh. Huh… Ghhh. Knock-knock! Did you see it! This is me! I am the one who received the title ‘Wailing’ from the Grand Witch Council!”
The Weeping Witch let out a tear-jerking laugh.
“Writhe in pain and die. Young barrier master. This is the difference between the Archwitch and the baby that smells like milk.”
Hands face up.
The spells tried to activate all at once, shining brightly.
But that was just then.
[The 9-star barrier, ‘The zodiacal sign of Scorpio’ is activated.] [The
4-star barrier, ‘High Speed Substitution’ is activated.]
Suddenly, one of the red pentagrams turns blue. has changed
It is a phenomenon that only occurs when a new magical power intervenes.
It also meant that the owner of the ceremony had changed.
Soon after, the color of the sky, dyed red, began to change as if it had been contagious.
“It… can’t be said. There’s no way something like this is possible. Something like this… something like this…” The
calculation speed was… ridiculously fast.
Whether it was a curse, a barrier, or a spell created through a combination of the two.
Every tribe that activates is being destroyed.
like that.
The scene where countless red pentagrams are replaced with countless blue six mangstars… I
dare not even describe it as spectacular.
