Solo Max-Level Newbie - Chapter 65
Episode 65. One-man corps (1)
Jinhyeok nodded in satisfaction.
“Thank you for telling me useful information in many ways. It really helped me a lot.”
I got information that will come in handy in making the board.
Some of my doubts were also resolved.
“Then can I go now?”
Melena asked with a desperate face.
“no.”
“You said you would save me… did you? Tell me what I know, and I’ll let you go!”
“don’t worry. I will keep my promise.”
As long as it proves useful, I have no intention of killing it recklessly.
Why do you throw away such a useful piece of chess after using it for a one-time use?
I could continue to use it in the future.
“I just have to promise you one thing.”
“promise?”
“okay. promise.”
A real promise, not a word of mouth or a ringing of the little finger.
An oath engraved on the soul is a promise in the true sense of the word.
[Lv3 ‘Stigma of Beloved’ is activated!]
Jinhyeok’s fingertips shone brightly.
“It is a proof that you must obey my words unconditionally from now on. If you stab me in the back or rebel, you’ll think I’d rather die, so decide carefully.”
die or not
either obey
There is only one of the two to choose from.
And Melena…
“I… don’t want to die.”
I chose to survive.
＊＊＊
The harsh first night has passed.
By the time the warm sun shines on the campsite.
“Hmm.”
Jinhyeok stretched and stood up from his seat.
It’s a refreshing morning.
Does it feel like all the accumulated fatigue has been recovered?
Last night, everything worked out more easily than expected, and thanks to the nutritional supplements, my condition reached its peak.
‘At this rate, it won’t be a problem even if I fight with all my might.’
In the last remaining boss raid, an incomparable melee will unfold.
‘It’s more like a war than a battle.’
Jinhyeok calmly rechecked the overall draft of the raid in his head.
Of course, even the smallest mistakes are not tolerated.
Because of this, Jinhyeok has complex situations, optimized movements, and even variables that can break down all those assumptions.
Indeed, it prepared for all cases.
How many minutes had passed?
Finally, Jinhyeok opened his closed eyes.
Suddenly, the key obtained from the Thousand Arms Guanyin was clutched in his hand.
ah. Wait a minute before calling the boss.
‘I almost forgot.’
One thing had to be done.
Jinhyeok activated the ‘broadcasting system’.
[Welcome to ‘Channel Unknown’.]
[Please select the desired category.]
Various categories are arranged in a row.
All you need now is to write a ‘notice’.
[I will not stream boss raids. I’ll edit it later and upload a strategy video, so only watch it.]
A short two-line notice has been updated.
‘Anyway, since we got enough aggro in the first broadcast, there’s no need to go live until the boss fight.’
The goal is to build up views on the video and awareness of the channel ‘Unknown’.
It’s not about giving the boss a loophole by giggling with the viewers.
In less than a minute after updating the video, dozens of comments were posted.
It seems that there were quite a few people who were waiting because they were thirsty.
-Issue Teller: See the announcement. He said he would start broadcasting. Are you going to replace it with a sudden video?
-Nutella Jajang: Besides, you made it an established fact that the attack was successful? If you fail and die, why are you leaving a notice like this?
-Baeksuwietsu: It must be because you have confidence. For those of you who didn’t watch the stream yesterday, stay still. If you stay still, the middle will go away.
-Pizza Sweet and Sour Pork John Mattang: Yes. It’s on a different level from what you’ve seen.
-Middle and high school country: Is that enough?
-Silence Checkpoint: I also looked at it yesterday, and my older brother was completely Dubai oil.
-Memories of Diablo 3: Yes. It’s almost at the level of the production crew’s hair loss machine. I managed to succeed even in a large guild raid by myself.
-Mad Movie: Hmm. It’s like kimchi soup, but no matter how strong you are, you can’t face an army of tens of thousands alone, right?
-Saeyoung Eonhwan: I’m looking forward to seeing how you defeat the boss.
The channel’s bulletin board was heated up due to the controversy between those who were dubious and those who believed and waited.
‘I guess I’ll have to pay some attention to directing.’
Reid’s success is natural, but to succeed at the box office, the screenplay, composition, and actors on stage are also important.
And of course.
Jinhyeok had also conceived of a way to satisfy all of them.
‘Then let’s start soon.’
Jinhyeok held the key and stretched out his hand toward the front.
empty space with nothing.
But the moment the key touches a point in the empty space.
Chunk!
A sound resounded as if irons were meshing.
[‘The stone statue’s key’ responds!]
[The owner of the 3rd floor responds to your call!]
A red status window appears at the same time.
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
A huge gate began to appear in front of me.
It is a huge gate that is incomparable to the one when the Thousand Hands Guanyin appeared.
“Hey…”
An exclamation flowed from Jinhyeok’s mouth.
It was so wide that I couldn’t see the end of it across the bamboo forest.
From its height, it seemed as if it would touch the clouds and engulf the sky.
soon
thud! thud! thud! thud! thud! thud!
A huge number of stone statues appeared beyond the gate.
A whopping 30,000 troops.
Most of them were heavily armed 1m soldiers, but there were also medium-sized soldiers over 10m and large-sized soldiers up to 50m.
And in the center of all the stone statues, the most ornately carved stone statue was visible.
That guy is the owner of the 3rd floor.
To be precise, the guy yawning on top of that stone statue.
“Hmm. Did you come alone this time?”
A familiar voice came from the top of the statue’s head.
Jeezerit!
Goosebumps rose up on Jinhyuk’s skin.
indeed.
‘Is this the boss’ magic?’
The boss monster on the 3rd floor belonged to the axis with relatively weak magical power.
It was because he had so many summons that his mana was dispersed.
Even so, this pressure that oppresses the whole body.
After all, a boss monster is a boss monster.
Jinhyeok scanned the opponent through the ‘Eye of Gluttony’.
but.
[The status window cannot be viewed due to the extreme level difference with the subject.]
What came back was a phrase that read was impossible.
Right then.
[Luck stat and adaptive stat neutralized the level difference.]
[Look through the target’s status window.]
Two stats shone.
‘Has the lucky stat that failed during the Thousand Hands Guanyin burst this time!’
Jinhyuk let out a small cheer.

[
Copy conditions: Mandala level Because it is below 15, it is impossible to copy Shaman’s unique ability or skill.]
The level is 105…
It seems that various guild raids have died quite a lot in the meantime.
Considering that originally, it took well over a year for this guy’s level to reach 3 digits.
‘So that’s why he had such confidence through the ceiling?’
Even though it’s only a boss on the 3rd floor, the poo you catch is worse than the dragon on the upper floor.
It’s not bad though.
‘In other words… it means that it is a better situation to induce vigilance.’
In addition, the stronger the enemy, the higher the satisfaction the subscribers will feel when they overturn it.
The corners of Jinhyuk’s mouth went up.
“Smile?”
“Oh sorry. I was thinking about something else for a while. So, what was the question you asked earlier?”
“I asked if you were alone here.”
“As you can see. Unlike anyone else, I don’t like hiding behind my subordinates.”
Jinhyuk sighed.
At that provocative answer, the unmarried woman’s eyes narrowed.
There was a very small crack in the expression that was tightly united with the pride of being a strong person.
But it was only for a short while.
The shaken pupil soon regained his composure.
“I’m sorry, but this body doesn’t like to use itself. Isn’t it the virtue of a monarch to rule over and give orders?”
It is a leisurely response.
No, it would be more accurate to say that it is a response to trying to look relaxed.
No matter how much the level has risen and accumulated countless victories…
‘The sense of qualification that comes from not being strong has not changed.’
That is why there is no such thing as a perfect being.
Because everyone had at least one loophole to dig into.
“well. I think the virtue of a monarch is not to hide behind when fighting, but to come forward first.”
“It is precisely because of such idiots that the war ends in vain. If the commander who went ahead alone dies, the soldiers who followed are annihilated. You mean you don’t even know the basics of those basics?”
That’s not wrong either.
step.
“Isn’t it fine if you don’t die even if you fight in front of the head of the family?”
I don’t know why you think you’ll die if you always step forward.
There is no way to raise the overall morale as much as that if only enough skills are supported.
“…that’s absurd. Are you saying you have the power to do that?”
“There is or not.”
If there was no possibility, I wouldn’t have come here in the first place.
He wouldn’t have been able to collect the ingredients for victory through hardships over the past hour.
Jinhyeok slowly stored his mana.
“Looks like he’s quite confident in fighting between troops… I’m quite fond of melee.”
So let’s stick together.
One of them would have to die to prove who was right.
After that, a strangely shaped chessboard appeared in the subspace inventory.
[‘The first chess board’ is activated!]
Tsutsutsutsu!
Blue lines began to be drawn along the ground.
Line meets line to create a square-shaped board.
It works.
Then next…
Jinhyeok took out the sculptures he received from Yuri this time.
Thousands of chess pieces carved out of marble appeared.
Of course, these aren’t toys made for playing board games.
A work of art created by summoner Lee Yu-ri using magic and inscribed with runes.
Therefore, each chess piece will fulfill its role as a soldier.
“The idea is novel. Certainly, with that method, you can play soldier games by yourself.”
Muhon, who saw the chess pieces laid out on the chessboard, made an expression of interest.
However, after a brief surprise, words with thick ridicule followed.
“What are you going to do with those little things?”
“wait. It’s not over yet.”
Even if you don’t talk like that, I’ll keep your mouth shut after a while, so just stay still.
Jinhyeok brought out an item to decorate the end.
An item obtained by playing with Anubis on the 1st floor of the Tower of Trials.
[You used the ‘Giant Pill’!]
It’s the Giant Pill.
The pills he had accumulated in large quantities permeated into the body of the chess piece.
OK.
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
The chess pieces, which were less than 10 cm tall, began to grow rapidly.
Knights, bishops and rooks up to 2m were lined up along the horizon.
Pawns armed with heavy armor stretched out their spears in a square formation.
Chess pieces are no longer toys.
Who could laugh at the troops with the might of a legion?
Have you realized that the situation is not serious now?
The smirk disappeared from the young man’s face.
Awesome!
Muhon bit his molar.
“…You bastard.”
It was a fly that I thought was easy.
Only one person could have been trampled on with a single gesture.
But not anymore.
The insignificant human had been transformed into an enemy with a large army that was difficult to ignore.
