Solo Max-Level Newbie - Chapter 722

Episode 722. Tower of Trials, ‘Free Entry to the 50th Floor’ (1)

Sigh.

Jinhyuk, with an evil smile, walked towards Cheongha.

Cheongha also noticed Jinhyeok and perked up her ears.

“Are you… Kang Jin-hyuk?”

As the zodiac is so closed-minded, it seems that Jinhyuk’s personal life is not properly understood.

“that’s right. I’m Jinhyuk Kang. “Are you here as a representative of the Miao people?”

“Tell him to ask. Hmm. It’s a little different from what I heard. “Something… I expected a lumpy monster like the Demon King to come.”

I don’t know what she was expecting, but Chungha seemed a little disappointed by her slim figure.

“Well, strength doesn’t necessarily require muscles, so I’ll just endure that part!”

Chungha put both hands on her waist as if she understood something.

The Miao people are a bit stupid and naive, but this guy seems to be outstanding among them.

“I heard that Beriel really wanted to meet me?”

“Ah… That’s right! As you may have already heard, I would like to propose that the Goinmul Corporation, including you, join our forces. “How about an honor?”

“It’s not a suggestion worth listening to. “It has no nutritional value whatsoever.”

“What? I’m serious? “We control a flight of stairs very close to the top of the tower?”

“It’s probably not because of us, but because of that monkey and the demon king among you.”

“That…”

Chungha, who had hit the nail on the head, opened her mouth.

But it was only for a moment.

This is because they have been thoroughly brainwashed and educated about who is much more advantageous in this situation.

“But you better listen to me, right? There is no guarantee that we will only be with you. From the looks of it, Lucifer and Eden also seem to have some power, so what do you think if we make this suggestion to them as well?”

If the Chinese Zodiac intervenes while the war against the demon world is in full swing, it will become a huge variable.

If you happen to join Lucifer’s side, the castle’s attack power will increase several times.

Above all, while the power is being dispersed just to keep Eden in check in the rear. The worst situation could have been created where the power had to be divided again.

“Hmm. “That’s a bit difficult…”

“Right? So come under us! “When you say something nice!”

“okay. “But before that, would you please do me a favor?”

“What?”

“I have to go somewhere in a little while, and it’s a rather rough place. It would be much more reassuring if there was a guide with considerable agility. “I was wondering if the Miao people, who have ‘the most nimble feet,’ would be able to accompany me.”

The point is to subtly praise them by saying it’s no big deal.

The Miao people, the weakest of the zodiac, have always been thirsty for praise.

“Hmm! What do you know about humans? good. Anyway, let me help you. “If we just do that, you’ll come under us, right?”

“I’ll look into it positively.”

Jinhyuk shook Cheongha’s hand.

Chungha held his hand without any doubt.

“Then wait here for a moment. “I’ll just tell my friends and come right away.”

“okay.”

Jinhyeok, who left Cheongha alone, went back to Beriel and Anubis.

The two gods, who were shaking their legs nervously, stood up once again to hear the results.

“What happened?”

“If you are my apostle who can even outwit the devil, then of course you would have solved the story well, right?”

Things that are said to be gods in name and color have no weight.

Still, when I first met them, they were quite solemn.

“huh. Now we can continue the siege without worrying about those guys. but. I can’t help you with this. “There is a separate place I need to stop by.”

The invitation was carefully stored inside my chest.

The seal written in a strange language perfectly sealed the contents of the invitation.

“That can’t be possible. It would be a difficult fight if you were left out…”

“I agree. “Our children’s morale has been high, but we will have to take a difficult path again.”

“Don’t worry too much. Instead, my comrades will stay and help with the war until I come.”

“I guarantee that I will be more helpful than that idiot.”

“I’ll try my best!”

Cheon Yu-seong and Teresa nodded.

A sword saint who has acquired the power of the sword demon. And a saint who can freely use two personalities.

The two top rankers will play a bigger role than an army of 10,000.

The war against Eden is just around the corner.

The first battle that will decide the fate of the upper levels of the Tower of Trials has broken out.

* * *

It was an exciting day.

Because I finally had the opportunity to leave the familiar world full of Miao people and go to another level.

The board was already prepared. It was a very simple and simple mission where you could achieve your goal by threatening the opponent as you memorized.

And actually, things went smoothly.

The human being who gave in to the terrifying threat quickly raised the white flag.

I promised that I would come down as long as I went somewhere with him before he completely broke down.

It is as easy as breathing.

It may have been difficult for humans, but for the great and quick-footed Miao people, traversing a dangerous area was not a problem.

I’m sure that’s the case….

“What?”

Seeing the scene unfolding before her eyes, Cheongha could not help but let out an inexplicable groan.

[You have used the Tower of Trials ‘50th Floor Free Entry Pass’.]

[The contents of the invitation have been partially modified through ‘System Manipulation’ and ‘Lost Language’.]

[The entry limit is raised to ‘3 people’ .]

Intelligent creatures usually do something called thinking.

This means that the number of possible cases is assumed and prioritized in an imperfect future.

But I can assure you.

Among the cases that Chungha expected, there was no such case.

Leaving behind the Miao people, whose soul was escaping from their mouths in real time. Jinhyuk stretched for a long time.

“Hmm. “The air here really gives me goosebumps.”

This is the 50th floor, where I came back after a long time.

Just by being in this space, all senses in my body become heightened and my heart beats rapidly.

Like a well-forged sword. It felt like every cell was alive and breathing.

That has to be the case.

This is the 50th floor of the Tower of Trials.

This place, which can be said to be the home of ancient beings, has yet to be fully understood by any beings.

Not only Jinhyuk, who once cleared the tower, but also the ancient beings living here and even those who oversee the operation of the tower.

‘A single moment of inattention could lead to death.’

In particular, we have now entered the 50th floor much faster than in the past. As the specifications are much lower, the risk is bound to rise to an incomparable level.

‘That may be the more thrilling part.’

These days, there are only a handful of times I’ve felt a life-threatening crisis, so the opportunity to experience the highest Hell difficulty level was very rare.

Squeeze.

Jinhyuk stabbed Cheongha in the shoulder.

“Wake. “It’s dangerous to stay here.”

“Hurry… wake me up from this nightmare. Hehehe. that’s right. This can’t be reality. Suddenly it’s the 50th floor. “Do you think that makes sense?”

Umm.

Now I see this kid.

We have gone beyond the stage of fear and despair and have reached the stage of denying reality.

At best, he was only an agent of King Myo, so was the shock too much?

‘It’s already a bit difficult to do this.’

Arriving at the 50th floor is just the beginning of the huge wave that Chungha experiences. From now on, the waves will gather and become a huge tsunami.

Right then.

Tsutsutsu….

A thin shadow came across the ground.

It’s an approach that leaves almost no trace.

Of course, it was impossible for Chungha, who was in a panic, to notice such a secret.

썣썄죤 죁죁!

The plants quickly narrowed the distance and took aim at Cheongha.

That moment.

Suddenly!

Jinhyeok’s dagger cut through the air.

[‘Ancient language’ is imprinted!]

Subtle letters shining along the surface of the ‘First Blade’. Purple fluid gushed out from among the cut plants.

Cheeeeeek!

Land that melts quickly.

The same fluid continued to flow from the thorns on the plant’s stem.

“What is it?”

An earthquake occurred in Chungha’s pupils.

Just one second. no. If he had been just 0.1 second later, he would have melted into that bodily fluid.

“I’m only saving you this once. “Just try to avoid it next time.”

“Are you saying you’re going to abandon me?”

“If the force is trying to embrace us, shouldn’t it be able to handle this on its own?”

A resident of a higher power protected by subordinates.

Where is such stupid talk?

Or…

“Either you come under us.”

As an intern at Goinmul Corporation, there is nothing that cannot be saved if you understand the topic well and perform your role well.

“Are you telling me to completely throw away our deal just so I can live alone? If you die, you’re dead. You can’t do anything that will harm your family! and. There’s no way I have to die here, right? “Like you said, I’m confident in being agile.”

“Tsk tsk.”

Jinhyuk clicked his tongue as if he felt sorry for Chungha, who was trying hard to regain her confidence.

“why!”

“No, I just feel sorry for you.”

It’s so pitiful that I can’t get the point at all, it’s almost sad.

“I’m sorry, but no matter how well you run away from here, I can’t completely erase the traces you left behind.”

The moment they entered the 50th floor, some of the Primordial Beings were able to recognize the intruder.

They will also notice the Miao’s body odor.

In other words.

“You were captured on the 50th floor.”

Son Goku and the Demon King are somehow able to survive, but can something like the Miao survive for even a day from ancient beings?

well.

If there was such a thing as gambling, I would want to bet all my money.

“Haha…”

Chungha’s face turned as white as a sheet of paper.

Yes.

There were no options for her from the beginning.

If you want to survive.

And in order for the Miao people not to become targets of the Primordial Beings.

This means that he has no choice but to be loyal to Jinhyuk.

* * *

How would you describe survival on the 50th floor?

I had my hands full while watching the famous Brother Bear’s survival story, but this is on a different level.

A primal fear written into our DNA.

Fear of an unfamiliar and foreign world.

The feeling of boundaries and boundaries collapsing and all five senses being crushed was something I could not endure with my sanity.

Just one.

“oh! Hey. There was this too. miss you “It was truly a memory.”

Except for the stagnant people taking a walk while looking at such a hellish evil scene.

Jinhyuk continued to let out exclamations as he spread a barrier around him.

A blue liquid was flowing from the strangely shaped cliff, and the sweet and attractive smell stimulated my appetite.

“It looks dangerous.”

Cheongha perked her ears and hid behind Jinhyuk.

I’ve only been here for about an hour, but I’ve already come close to dying more than 10 times.

I painfully experienced that everything I see can take away my life.

but.

“are you okay. “It’s one of the few drinks you can have here.”

It’s so attractive that it’s rather suspicious, but it’s a liquid that’s high in nutrients and tastes good.

Now that I think about it, I used to have a wild imagination that I could become a chaebol if I put carbonic acid in it and sold it, but now that it has become a reality, it is not an impossible task at all.

Squeak.

Jinhyuk filled the canteen with liquid.

“So, can you at least tell me your final goal? “I said I could go back as long as I finished what I had to do here.”

“ah. It did.”

I was so absorbed in the memories that I forgot about it.

“We should use this as a temporary base, observe what is happening, and then go to the palace.”

“Palace?”

“huh. Palace.”

“Who lives there?”

“Well, there’s a place where a damn bastard called Azathoth sleeps on the 50th floor.”

Although it is a dead ending immediately upon awakening, you must infiltrate the 50th floor in order to achieve your purpose.

“….”

As soon as the answer came, Chungha’s slender shoulders began to tremble.

-contractor. That rabbit is crying.

“Leave it alone. “There are moments when a rabbit wants to cry.”

Finally, Jinhyeok, who purchased the item at the coin exchange, opened the subspace inventory. It contained various materials that he had collected from time to time after entering the 50th floor.

‘Everything possible has been prepared.’

Two suns are setting.

The first moon is about to rise.

Now it is time to go to the realm of Azathoth.
