Solo Max-Level Newbie - Chapter 704
Episode 704 Labyrinth ‘Temple of Ramses’ (3)
Elder God.
Although it is not as large a force as the Outer Gods that Nyarlathotep belongs to, it is the only force in the entire Tower of Trials that can fight against the Outer Gods.
Due to their noble and cautious nature, they have been extremely reluctant to intervene in the tower from the front until now, but due to one incident, their general principles have completely changed.
Patter.
Severed tentacles fell to the floor.
“I knew you were wandering around the tower. “Well, since he was such a curious person, I thought it was possible.”
Countless blades appeared in the woman’s hands.
Each one possessed ridiculous magical power equivalent to a high-level unique ability.
“But fooling around outside the tower. Doesn’t this violate the agreement we made? No matter how much time has passed. Nyarlathotep. “There’s no way you could have forgotten that.”
“under! Pretending to be stubborn until the end. Be honest and don’t bring up agreements that are gathering dust. “Because it’s disgusting to hear.”
Nyarlathotep struck the ground with his staff.
Kukukukuk!
Then a several-meter-long crack covered the entire space.
Slurp slurp!
Along the crack, tentacles so thick and incomparably thick as before began to crawl out.
“Necronomicon. Didn’t that book eventually fall into the hands of a third party and allow you, who were trapped in the pit, to climb out? “You disgusting Elder God, ‘Sibuckal’.”
“…”
At Nyarlathotep’s words, Sibukkal’s smile grew even deeper.
“Tsk tsk. that’s right. “We are finally able to break this terrible balance.”
For peace? Or to seek balance or harmony?
It’s all bullshit.
The reason the Elder Gods remained silent beyond the horizon was simply because their power was significantly insufficient compared to the Outer Gods.
But if I could get my hands on the Necronomicon…
I could make up for my shortcoming and aim for the next one.
“For that to happen, I guess I’ll have to get you to stop messing around here. “You won’t be able to do anything with that incarnate body, so I recommend that you just give up.”
The number of blades increased more and more.
The entire space that stretches out into the ancient realm shakes.
but.
Nyarlathotep’s face didn’t change much.
Instead, he raised his index finger and gently placed it on his lips.
“Please call me by my name, Schuette, not by that name here.”
There are many eyes to see and many ears to hear.
More than anything.
The Elder Gods are nothing more than noisy, uninvited guests at the banquet hall they hold.
[Nyarlathotep activates his unique ability ‘Night Walker’!]
The shadows stretched out one after another.
So much so that it completely obscures the countless shining blades.
“It means you don’t intend to take it easy.”
Sea Buck Curl also exploded all at once without concentrating the overflowing magic power.
Kukukkukwakwakwakwakwa…!
Purple sparks colored the entire field of vision.
like that.
A battle has begun between the ancient gods.

“That’s stupid.”
“Don’t you know that they are openly targeting you?”
“It would be a mistake to refuse even the samurai guild’s protection.”
“I was a little excited because I had won the right to participate in the main event, but it seems like I had no idea.”
“Well, I didn’t achieve that on my own, but it was thanks to someone named Adele.”
The rumbling sound got a little louder.
Because I thought Jinhyuk’s choice was no different from suicide.
Just one person.
Except for the man with black skin and a long spear.
Nkrumah, a high ranker of ‘Shuja’, one of the 7 major guilds.
Among them, he was the only top player ranked in the world’s top 100.
‘That’s strange. Unlike his wandering appearance, he seemed to have the spirit of a wild beast…’
Everyone was laughing, but in Nkrumah’s eyes, Jinhyeok felt a bit different from the stones scattered on the road.
‘Is there a reason why they are hiding something?’
Jinhyuk did not argue with his decision.
There was no reason to irritate Dreadlore’s players, who were already very angry, by starting here.
The attack force, which was divided into two, moved quickly to find the ‘Book of Light’ and the ‘Book of Darkness’ respectively.
“This way.”
How far down did we go following the explorer’s guidance?
A huge empty space appeared in front of everyone.
An eerily quiet silence enveloped the raiding party.
“I don’t think there are any books in a place like this, do you?”
Jinhyuk kicked a stone that was lying on the floor.
The rolled stone bounced for a long time, but did not reach the other end.
“The book should have chosen the third uphill rather than the second downhill.”
“When you see someone come to the wrong place even though they know it, don’t you think it’s usually a sign of serious dishonesty? Tsk tsk. That’s why I’m always so tired.”
“…I don’t understand, but what you’re saying is that after killing all of you, I brought you here to find the book on our own.”
“Hey. Seeing how lame you are making excuses, it seems like a good idea. Well, I understand bro. “I’ll be embarrassed in front of the kids.”
“This bastard…!”
One of the Dreadlore players, who had not heard of it, threw out a memorization.
Buuuuung!
“Ugh?”
Jinhyeok was startled by the ax that flew without hesitation and swung his sword carelessly.
Kaaaang!
Somehow I managed to stop it.
But the direction changed completely.
To a place no one expected.
Pow!
“Keu… eon?”
The roughly spun ax hit the chest of another player who was watching while giggling.
The blood that spurted out instantly soaked the floor red.
stick. This happened before the healer could do anything.
“Anderson!”
“The Lord is dead.”
“Cruel bastards. How do you kill your own side? We also have a kid similar to you named Cheon Yoo-seong, but he’s almost the same level. “It’s the same level.”
Jinhyuk wrapped his arms around her shoulders and shook off the chills.
“What bullshit! “I died because of you!”
“I was just defending myself. “He was the one who threw it.”
People die from axes thrown as a joke.
I hope this opportunity will serve as an opportunity to deeply feel and reflect on the mistakes you have made.
“done. If we keep talking, we will only lose. “I’ll just clean it up.”
Mayer took out a 2m long long sword from subspace.
A ranker who boasts outstanding skills in interpersonal battles among the Dreadlore guild.
Moreover, because of his tendency to kill people so cruelly, he was given the nickname ‘Butcher’.
“My lord.”
“Rattle. master. “Order.”
Wolyoung and T-Bone took a step forward.
“no. “Don’t lose your strength and just stay there.”
“Are you trying to deal with it directly?”
“no.”
There is no need to step forward right now.
Jinhyeok’s eyes turned to the darkness behind the Dreadlore.
‘There is no way such a huge space exists in the labyrinth without reason.’
I don’t know who was pranking me, but the design of this labyrinth reflected the settings of the existing Tower of Trials in a surprisingly similar way.
Although it is my first time here, it is said that it is somewhat predictable.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
It was at that moment that a loud noise rang out.
“Kaaaaaaak!”
“Aaaahhh!”
A sharp scream followed by a fishy, bloody smell stung the tip of my nose.
“Master Mayer!”
“What’s going on!”
Mayer, who was about to swing his sword, hurriedly turned around.
There was a huge insect with four legs.
“Keeeeee!”
Huge size, reaching about 10m.
The two scythe-like legs were covered in the blood of the players who had just been cut down.
[The named monster ‘Shareke’ awakens!]
[The queen’s special effects and the colony’s additional buffs overlap!]
[The stats of all players here are reduced by 10%!]
A red status window appears one after another.
The sudden appearance of a named monster was a misfortune among misfortunes, but the worst part was not the appearance of Sharake.
‘Colony area’.
This is the word that players least want to encounter.
Because the end was unknown and bloody melees often broke out, the damage was unpredictable.
I hope it’s not too big of a colony.
Mayer shouted, almost begging.
“Clear the view!”
“Yes yes!”
Grumble!
Several fireballs rose up, lighting up the surroundings.
What I thought was a wall until now was filled with countless holes measuring 30cm in diameter.
“No way…”
“Oh no, right?”
Despair became a reality.
Even at a glance, there was no doubt that it was a top-level colony.
This means that it would be difficult for an attack party of only 100 people to last for an hour.
Tsutsutsutsu!
Chichichichit!
Scarabs with green outer shells began to pour out endlessly.
“Oh it’s coming!”
“Get your formation in order! shit. “We have to hold on somehow!”
Stagnant corporations are no longer a problem.
To survive.
And you should focus all your attention on securing the books and joining the rest of the guild.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
Magic and various skills were concentrated and a full-scale battle began.
Still, as expected of an elite attack force from a large guild that has experienced its fair share of mountain warfare, the tank formation reliably supported the first line.
“Do you have any thoughts?”
“I think it would be difficult to just hold on. “We have spread our news to other parties, but it will take a while for support to arrive.”
Kiyov and Ivankovic each spoke a word next to Mayer.
Thanks to their credit for being the first to discover the collusion between Jinhyeok and the Titan Guild, these two were able to participate in this raid as Mayer’s closest associates.
The current situation has already been relayed to the person who went to retrieve the Book of Light. However, he also didn’t have much time to spare because he was fighting another named monster.
They say that if they remain here, they will only become isolated and annihilated.
“You can’t do that. “I don’t want to be killed.”
Mayer bit his molars as he watched the insects rushing around like crazy.
How did I get to this point, but I couldn’t face the end in vain in a place where no one recognizes me.
Then….
“Listen carefully, everyone!”
All you have to do is create a way to live.
“I will lead a detachment to find the Book of Darkness. It may be much more dangerous as it has to be done in small numbers, but this is the only way for everyone to survive. I’ll risk my life too, so you guys should do your best to hold on! “This is my final order as the commander of the engineering unit.”
By adding a plausible justification.

“Hmm. Are they going to sneak out on their own?”
Jinhyeok, who was watching Mayer’s actions, chuckled.
I watched leisurely, trying to predict how he would deal with this situation, but Mayer proved that his character was at an all-time low by making the worst move the engineering team leader could make.
‘Then I guess I’ll have to go out with a personality that matches him.’
The first assignment I got through Takeshi.
Jinhyuk took out a small box made by his craftsman.
Sweet.
The lid was opened.
Inside was an old key with an engraving of a ‘fox’ commonly seen at Japanese shrines.
[Use the ‘Great Tribute Key’!]
A sacred relic that allows only those with a benevolent relationship to use one of the items stored in each other’s treasure trove.
‘There is a condition that you must have owned the object before, but it is quite a useful item.’
Other people may not know.
For me, that is.
Ugh!
A crack appeared and a familiar place appeared.
[The target is ‘Rick Hennessy’s Personal Collection Archive.’]
Infinite collections have appeared, occupying a place in the great library.
There were plenty of rare items that ordinary players would never see in their lives.
And the one I chose among them…
