Solo Max-Level Newbie - Chapter 34
Episode 34 How the deceased person grows (1)
[A-level players or higher, please quit your work and gather at the penthouse on the top floor right now.]
Uuuuuuuuu!
The cell phone vibrated.
A brief convocation order was issued, omitting context.
“Damn, I’m busy, so why is there an emergency call?”
“Don’t talk. I was in the middle of a raid.”
“Kaak Tue! No matter how badly you have to, isn’t it getting worse these days?”
Players belonging to the Black Crow guild gathered in the building while grumbling.
quiet inside.
Small pieces of glass left on the floor.
It was different from usual.
Everyone tilted their heads.
“Why are you like this today?”
“This is our building… right?”
A deep sense of discomfort arose.
I instinctively felt that something was wrong.
rattle!
And the moment you open the door and step inside.
The ominous feeling turned to certainty.
“How did this happen?”
“Geonsu hyung!”
“Healer… Heal now! right now!”
The person lying on the floor covered in blood was none other than the guild master Shin Geon-soo.
“It’s already too late. At least a few hours since he stopped breathing…”
The healer, who was checking Shin Geon-soo’s condition, shook his head.
I don’t know how to heal injuries, but reviving the dead was not a healer’s domain.
The guild leader is dead.
then.
Who gave the emergency call-up order?
Everyone’s eyes turned to another person in the room.
It was Kim Hee-woong, Shin Geon-soo’s secretary.
Anger soared as he corrected his glasses with a nervous face.
“Kim Hee-woong!”
One player draws a weapon.
Whoa…!
A window over 2m in height was revealed in the subspace inventory.
A sharp weapon was pointed at Kim Hee-woong’s neck.
“Don’t leave out a tossi and tell me what happened! Right Now!”
“Haha… that’s how it happened.”
Kim Hee-woong glanced to the side as if in trouble.
To be precise, under the table.
who else is there? when everyone thought so.
that buck
A very young-looking white-haired girl emerged from under the table.
Impressive with long silver hair and red eyes.
She was a girl with a strange atmosphere.
“ha.”
The girl scratched her head in annoyance.
He was spewing vicious blood from his various weapons, but as if he didn’t care about that.
Were you shocked by that carefree look?
“I don’t mind. Did you trust a kid like this to do the job?”
The spearman clicked his tongue.
right at that moment.
fast and
A sinew sprouted from Alice’s forehead.
“Little kid? Are you a kid?”
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
It was then that the red magic began to overflow.
[Lv?? The ‘realm of blood’ is activated!]
The tension in the room disappeared in an instant.
The cold air that seemed to freeze all the blood vessels throughout the body.
Among them, there were players who had participated in the 1st floor boss raid, but…
…there was no comparison.
It’s on a completely different level.
“Oh my God…”
“What kind of magical power?”
“It is a monster.”
rattle!
The players shuddered, frozen in place.
No one dared to even think of running away.
“Wow! You have to be patient. Didn’t the… CEO tell you not to kill him if possible?”
Kim Hee-woong was also flustered.
Key resources will be needed to operate the guild.
Jinhyeok asked to preserve the rankers as much as possible.
but.
“What do you know? Didn’t you hear what they just said to me?”
Alice’s reason had long since been cut off.
As if complaining of the accumulated stress.
Huge magic power exploded.
Aaaaaang!
All the windows in the building were smashed.
＊＊＊
Awakened Association in Seocho-dong.
To prove that he had passed the second test, Jinhyeok visited this place first.
1:00 pm.
It is exactly the time promised.
Jinhyeok checked his smartphone and looked around.
‘It’s about time to come soon…’
That’s when I thought.
“brother!”
“brother! here it is here!”
Two people waved their hands at the entrance.
It was Lee Tae-min and Yoo Yeon-hwa.
In terms of time, it didn’t take long before we met again.
But why?
Jinhyeok was genuinely glad to see the two of them.
“It came just right. how have you been?”
“We had a good time. I succeeded in clearing one of the B-class labyrinths on the second floor!”
Taemin Lee raised his shoulders.
“Your level has gone up quite a bit. I didn’t really sleep and I hunted hard.”
Yoo Yeon-hwa also made an expression as if she wanted to be praised.
surely.
The magic I felt from the two was different.
Not only did the overall amount increase, but the concentration of magical power also increased.
“Looks like you had a spectacular time.”
“no way. Not like my brother.”
“huh?”
“Don’t pretend you don’t know. A video uploaded to the ‘Hall of Fame’ yesterday. Is that your brother?”
Yoo Yeon-hwa stabbed Jin-hyeok’s side with her elbow.
Lee Tae-min also added a word.
“brother. But why are you wearing a mask? Couldn’t it be that you’ve got the second grader like before… isn’t it?”
“It was because of personal circumstances. Rather… is it that obvious?”
Inferring from just one mask?
No, isn’t it too much to have a connection with middle school 2 disease and pick up your identity?
I can’t deny that it was once my taste.
It’s sad for some reason.
“Because my older brother is the only person who has been buried enough to attack the ruins. I noticed right away.”
“In fact, the moment I saw the news, I knew it was him right away.”
“ah…! Was it like that?”
Jinhyuk’s sullen expression widened.
thank god.
In many ways…
“By the way, hyung, did you really leave [Tower of Trials] around the same time as us?”
“Looking at the video, it was not at the level of memorizing patterns, but at the level of slapping the producer of [Tower of Trials]…”
The two looked at Jinhyeok with a mixture of doubt and awe.
It’s an embarrassing look.
But it has to be.
Right now, the [Tower of Trials] community is on the verge of exploding because of the video uploaded yesterday.
The failure to capture the 3rd floor boss and the capture of the ruins considered impregnable.
As the two events interlocked, the attention of many people was focused on the masked player.
who his true identity is.
How many floors have you climbed to in the past?
Which guild do you belong to?
Favorite food or hobbies, even the color of the panties he was wearing today were the subjects of interest.
‘The reaction is intense.’
Jinhyeok smiled.
I expected it roughly, but this exceeded my expectations.
‘good.’
If these conditions are met, it will be easier to act in the future.
with the masked self.
himself without a mask.
In living two lives like this.
‘I’ll give you both the top level.’
1st and 2nd place in world rankings.
At first glance, they may appear to be different people, but in reality they are the same person.
‘I’ll use those two conditions and take all the benefits.’
pounding! pounding! pounding!
As he thought of the many plans he had in mind, Jinhyeok felt his heart start to beat faster little by little.
at that time.
“brother? give me an answer What floor did you really go to?”
“hey. You shouldn’t ask questions like that. Be honest. You’re one of my brother’s game management staff, aren’t you?”
“Nuna, isn’t that a bit too much?”
“No. Otherwise, how would you explain moving at such a rotten level?”
“…After hearing it, it seems to make sense.”
I don’t know how the story got to this point.
It would be fun to watch the two of them let their imagination run wild…
“Sorry.”
Jinhyuk smiled brightly.
At the same time, the screen of the smartphone was shown to the two people.
[Please come report the results of the 2nd test by 1:15 PM.]
＊＊＊
It was a day without an awakening test, so the inside of the association was quite quiet.
Upon arriving at the information desk, Jinhyeok took out his ID.
“I came to receive a confirmation that I passed the second test.”
“Yes, hold on.”
A female employee handed over Jinhyeok’s ID.
however.
“uh…? Kang Jin… Mr. Hyuk?”
A surprised expression like a rabbit.
The female employee looked at her ID card and at Jinhyeok, then jumped up from her seat.
“Would you please wait a moment?”
“yes?”
“wait a minute. Don’t go anywhere, you must wait.”
A female employee hurriedly runs somewhere with nothing to say.
It happened so quickly that Jinhyuk couldn’t even say anything.
and after a while
The person who came with the female employee was a middle-aged man with a sharp look.
‘This is quite surprising.’
Jinhyuk’s eyes narrowed.
How could I not know?
Han Sang-jin, president of the Awakened Association.
The person who oversees the players in Korea.
[Lv2 ‘Eye of Truth’ is activated.]
The Eye of Truth penetrated the opponent’s status window.
Tring!

[Copy condition: The copy condition was not updated due to an error.]
Jinhyeok was just reading the status window and the copy condition.
“I was waiting for you to come. Player Kang Jin-hyuk.”
Han Sang-jin, who came right in front of me, asked for a handshake.
shit.
For some reason, I think it would be a headache if I put this together….
It must be.
Han Sang-jin’s eyes. It’s like the eyes of a beast looking for prey.
‘But if I stand still, I’ll become an idiot who will remain in the Eastern Kingdom of Courtesy.’
Whoa.
can’t do it
However, Jinhyeok, who was about to reach out, hesitated.
I thought over what Han Sang-jin had just said.
Something is strange.
In the conversation… I felt a deep heterogeneity.
Wait
a minute.
‘You were waiting for me to come?’
Only one examiner knows the true measurements of the first test.
To the rest, he was just one of the F ranks on the street.
‘For the lowest ranked players… The president of the association moves directly?’
Doesn’t it make sense?
Even so, there is no possibility that the examiner would open his mouth.
As long as you have the ‘Stigma of Love’ engraved on it, it will turn to ashes as soon as you tell the truth.
…that’s interesting.
You mean these guys are prepared enough to fool the ‘eyes’ this time, right?
Jinhyeok smiled.
“hey.”
“yes? All of a sudden… why is that?”
Han Sang-jin’s face was stained with embarrassment.
I have no choice but to do it because I am talking half-heartedly.
However, Jinhyuk’s expression was still cold.
“Stop acting clumsy and release the barrier. right now.”
“What is a barrier
?”
“If I tell you this, will you pretend not to know?”
The corners of Jinhyuk’s mouth went up even more.
If you want to go the embarrassing way rather than the easy way.
Jinhyeok, who took out his dagger in an instant, threw his shoulders back.
And threw it towards the ceiling.
Wedge love!
The dagger that flew through the wind became lodged in the ceiling.
To be precise, it was nailed to ‘what you see’ through the ceiling.
That moment.
Parts Tsutsu!
The space was distorted, and a gentle wave arose on the transparent membrane.
