Solo Max-Level Newbie - Chapter 371

Chapter 371. The cult leader of the specter, ‘Natae’ (1)

A regular hexagonal box with a subtle silver color.

Whoa. I thought this would come out here

Jinhyuk’s eyes narrowed.

The random skill box is a kind of dismantling item. The type of reward is determined by how many tightly sealed boxes are dismantled.

‘In a word, it means that the more you dismantle it, the better you can acquire among the skills on the 20th floor.’

However, dismantling the random box is a story after a while.

When everyone around you has disappeared. That’s when it’s time to pull the skill out of this box.

“Mr. Jinhyeok!”

“Go, player Kang Jin-hyuk!”

The players who had been watching the battle trembling in fear came running.

All of them have tired faces.

Since I came to the 20th floor, I have been constantly being chased, so of course I have no choice but to reach my limit.

“Are you feeling better?”

“Yes. Thanks to Jinhyeok-ssi’s timely arrival, we were spared from being annihilated.”

Theresa nodded.

Then, as if they had waited, the others expressed their gratitude.

“Thank you so much. I thought everything was wrong. I thought everything was over…” ”

I gave up everything when the engineering chief abandoned us.”

“How the hell am I supposed to repay this favor… Player Kang Jin-hyeok is our guild’s benefactor.”

Sobs echoed everywhere.

I thought I was really dead.

They would lose their lives one by one while being brutally hunted.

but.

At the worst moment, the strongest ally appeared.

That’s what the deceased corporation is all about.

“Really, everyone was amazing. I heard that only outstanding members are selected, but seeing it in person, that word was rather abbreviated.”

Carlos The man who participated as the leader of the magic troops in this raid muttered with a face full of emotion.

The deceased corporation….

Even if the top rankers from a large guild come, can you deal with one of them?

Even if Olympus and all the other 6 guilds were combined, it was doubtful whether they would be able to follow their toes.

‘Of course, there are some large-scale rookies coming out recently.’

Due to the magical energy from the Tower of Trials, those who had begun to awaken as latecomers were joining one after another.

Among them, there were those who had outstanding talent.

Just like Faydon, who is currently the vice-master of the Olympus Guild.

Even so, it was absurd to put them on the same line as Chun Yu-seong or Alice and compare them.

‘…Besides that muscular grandfather and blue-haired girl are beyond imagination.’

The image of him sweeping away the insects a moment ago is still stuck in his mind.

That’s a huge gap.

They are rankers who can play the role of a single raider.

‘The knight in the white armor must have been a very powerful person…’

Carlos glanced to the side.

There was Abraham, who was servicing weapons, and Pesis, who was tending to the wounded.

Even at a glance, the two seemed far from ordinary.

But the most absurd thing is…

‘It’s player Kang Jin-hyuk.’

Carlos managed to calm his trembling fists.

An out-of-spec boss that overwhelms the entire raid.

Even among the Paladins, Teresa, who was ranked among the world’s top tiers, including the Holy See, was no match for that monster.

Jin-hyuk, who unilaterally pressed down such a hopeless enemy… From Carlos’ point of view, he could only look like the sky.

“Collect the wounded and prepare to camp. We will spend the night here.”

“Yeah? Camping?”

Hearing that he was camping, Carlos and the rest of the players were startled.

“Are you worried about the cult guys?”

“Yes, yes.”

Although the crisis was passed immediately, the chasing of the leech-like church did not end yet.

Since we have been relentlessly targeting this side until now, we will continue to tighten the encirclement.

“Don’t worry. I’ll make it through tonight at least.”

Jinhyuk smiled brightly.

[Currently, a ‘Wide Illusion’ barrier is activated in a radius of 15 km.]

I have already set up a barrier around the forest.

Since I came to this place quickly, 6 stars was the limit, but since I set it to 3, it won’t be easy to destroy it.

＊＊＊

The players of the coalition raid all fell into a deep sleep.

And Jinhyeok…

was in a pretty difficult situation and was sweating.

The origin of the case is as follows.

Since you’re hungry, let’s procure food in moderation nearby.

And wouldn’t it be better to eat something delicious to eat…

‘It was good up to that point…’

Jinhyeok pressed his throbbing head.

The problem is that this has become overheated because it is not competitive.

“Contractor. Doesn’t this look cute? You have to eat this, okay? Make sure to use this, not the others.”

“Oh my gosh. My little boy brings something that looks like he’ll die instantly if he eats it. Are you offering it as an ingredient? These beautiful mushrooms would be much better than that.”

“…All of them have a 0% survival rate. What I brought is the most recommended as food.”

Alice and Frey, and even Teresa, who was clumsily darkened as if she had self-restraint for some reason.

In front of the bonfire, the witches of the Mist Village were also crying and a terrible meal was being prepared.

Jinhyeok’s gaze turned to the ingredients each brought.

First of all, Alice, who is appealing the most passionately, brought the corpse of an insect unknown to her.

Insects with three legs were the first to see while playing the Tower of Trials.

As Elise said, it looked cute, but seeing that it had purple thorns, I instinctively felt that it was dangerous.

However, when they ate the mushroom Teresa had picked up, it was a poisonous mushroom called the ‘widowmaker’.

‘Isn’t it common knowledge that poisonous mushrooms are usually fancy?’

I don’t know what I was thinking of bringing mushrooms that glow in rainbow colors.

Finally, Frey also brought terrible ingredients.

‘It’s a gray wasp nest and honey.’

The taste is insanely good and even addictive, but if consumed in excess of a certain amount, there is a risk of falling into a terrible hallucination.

It would be better to see it as a drug rather than food.

“So who are you going to eat? Mine of course? Huh? Contractor!”

“No sane person would eat anything the kid brought with him.”

“Nu-who is calling me a kid! You foolish saint!”

“Honey… good for the body.”

If you don’t make a choice, you will be forced to feed them.

Cuckoo Cuckoo!

In fact, everyone gathered their magic and surrounded Jinhyeok as if they were surrounded.

Of course, there is no way out.

If I didn’t make a choice, I might have to eat them all.

“Puhaha! As expected, after a victory, a glass of rice wine is the best. Disciple. If you finish the food the chefs gave you, you should have a drink with the principal. I brought 30 Dong, so I can sleep well until I finish drinking. don’t think about it.”

Even the darkness was laid with huge drinking bowls. Only with solo alcohol over 60 degrees.

“…”

This place is hell.

Or at least a place similar to hell.

Jinhyuk slowly closed his eyes.

With a face that gave up on everything.

“Whoops. If you’re envious of the Master of Heaven, will this teacher get you something delicious?”

“……It’s okay. Master, you eat a lot.”

Chun Yoo-seong ate one of the fruits of the tree.

like that.

The night got deeper and deeper.

＊＊＊

Landscapes that seem out of this world.

A night sky lined with gloomy constellations and red giants enters.

and.

that buck

Nyarlathotep moved along the path where the bizarre plants grew.

“…”

Keeping my mouth shut, I just look straight ahead and walk.

Considering his usually cheerful personality, the atmosphere was very heavy now.

It had to be.

What was to come after a while was the kind that even Nyarlathotep would not be happy with.

How long did it take?

At the end of the plants dyed black, there was a beautiful looking alien species with long pink hair.

half-man and half-man.

The upper body was human, but the lower body was that of a goat.

Sitting on a throne made of black twigs and immersed in thoughts, it was not only enchanting, but also dreamy.

and towards her.

“mother.”

Nyarlathotep spoke slowly.

Then, without reaction, the being sitting on the throne turned his head.

“You’re late.”

“Sorry, I had a little business to deal with.”

“Yes. That’s right. I heard that the Old Guard was damaged.”

short impression.

But what that meant was never light.

cooong!

“Keugh!”

Nyarlathotep’s back bent 90 degrees.

Nyarlathotep’s whole body trembled thinly at the magical power that transcended cognition.

Shub Nigurath.

True to her nickname of being the mother of all things, she dared not even fathom the end of her body’s strength.

Even Nyarlathotep couldn’t stand it.

“That, that’s…”

“Yeah, tell me now. I’m waiting for you.”

“I was just trying to steal the crown from a human for our future. If it’s not a huge power and it’s just one player, there’s plenty of potential…

” ?Evidently, even though I saw clearly that the human drove this mother out.”

Shub Nigurath rose from his seat.

The plants split left and right, and giggling laughter began to fill the air.

“Ha, but…! Wasn’t that guy using an expedient way to deal with his mother?”

Nyarlathotep protested with a furious face. Shub Nigurath calmly continued.

“The first hourglass began to go down.”

“No way…! Are you saying that the law of causality flows?”

Nyarlathotep’s eyes popped open.

‘The First Hourglass’ is a kind of foreknowledge of the future.

Like the Greek ‘three goddesses of fate’ or Eden’s ‘Revelation’, it creates a powerful future.

Unlike the rest, which foresee the future broadly, ‘The First Hourglass’ foresees only one thing.

The fact that someone entered on the 50th floor.

“Yes. Sooner or later. Someone will come to where we live. And that person must be that human.”

Unlike prophecies of other tiers, which are subject to interpretation. There is no such thing as interpretation in ‘The First Hourglass’.

It means that as long as the sand starts to fall, someone will surely reach the 50th floor.

“Your mother overestimates that human. There are many strong people under the tower. But, are you saying that he will come here?

Originally, this is nonsensical.

No matter how prominent they were, players who had only been in the tower for a few years. Reaching the top of the tower was impossible.

but. Shub Nigurath’s face was more confident than ever.

“This is why I can’t fall asleep. The toys that will soothe my boredom are constantly coming out.”

softly.

A grain of sand falls in an hourglass.

“Deliver the order to the minions released on the lower floor of the tower. We will also join the power war from now on.”

Correspondingly, the beings on the 50th floor began to move.
