The 31st Piece Turns the Tables - Chapter 128
Episode 128
Park Chang-sik shouted.
“Um… what is that? What do you want me to do? “If anything…”
“… we have to fight it.”
“Phew… But if it’s a doll, it’s different from other demon beasts…”
“No. Ha… not really.”
Kang Seol said to Park Chang-sik.
“At least for now… that doll is the most dangerous in this labyrinth.”
“… yes?”
“If it was 25% of what it was back then…”
Finn entered the Labyrinth of Penance after obtaining the original blood in the Red Palace.
‘The time when Finn began to become explosively strong…’
Even after the Labyrinth of Penance, Finn became incredibly strong.
In other words, he came to the labyrinth of asceticism even before he reached his prime.
Looking at it this way, it seemed that such a doll that only partially imitated the power of a pin would be no match for Kang Seol, but in reality, that was not the case.
It was for two reasons.
The first time Finn visited the Labyrinth of Asceticism was later than when Snowfall entered.
When the direction of your words has already been decided and your abilities are abundant.
‘There will probably be quite a few seasons…’
There were two seasons that also had snowfall, but Karen’s drawing of a sunset was an ability that could only be activated in certain situations, and the possibility that it also had the form of a night crow was huge, but it was not yet complete.
Having an abundance of abilities means that there are many different victory patterns.
The current snowfall was not strong enough to destroy them all.
Second, the worst compatibility.
Some of the abilities that Finn Modria possessed were extraordinary and fatal to the current snowfall.
For Snow, who had few abilities, Finn Modria was the worst opponent he could face.
‘But knowing that… it’s not a fight you can back down from.’
Snowfall also had its advantages.
First of all, at least Finn Modria’s abilities and numbers were only 25% of what they were at that time.
Of course, even if the ability level is only 1/4, it will be similar to the current snowfall, considering that the ability level increases exponentially as the adventure continues in the eternal world.
Another advantageous point.
If Labyrinth had imitated Finn through the painful penance, it would have displayed Finn’s battle pattern exactly as it was at that time.
Finn’s battle pattern at that time was all coordinated by Snowfall.
So it was possible to predict to some extent what kind of battle that doll would show.
‘And… that will definitely work too.’
Lastly, Kang Seol experienced the final penance.
There were special environmental changes during the final penance.
Since Kang Seol had already experienced that change, she predicted that utilizing it would be the key to overturning the unfavorable power.
Jerk.
Kang Seol said to Park Chang-sik as he crossed the bridge leading to the central square space.
“This time… I can’t protect you.”
“… I will protect my life. “Let’s try to help in some way.”
Phew…
A battlefield where a tough fight is expected.
Kang Seol’s heart as she headed there also became heavy.
Sometimes there are fights that cannot be avoided.
I decided not to think about the odds of winning.
If I have to fight anyway, I just do my best.
Jerk.
“Be sure to stand behind me at first.”
“… yes? “Oh, I understand.”
Park Chang-sik tensed and stepped behind Kang Seol.
Jerk.
As Park Chang-sik’s footsteps, following Snow Seol, reached the square space, a message came to mind.
[You have reached the end of the Labyrinth of Penance.]
[A linked adventure continues.]
[This adventure is very dangerous.]
[Rewards can be obtained only after all adventures are completed.]
Puss…
An ominous energy surrounds the area. It hovered around.
[The next adventure begins.]
[The eighteenth adventure begins.]
[Adventure 18. Sharing the Pain]
Adventure 18. ‘Sharing the Pain’
At the end of the labyrinth of penance, someone’s pain lay.
Perhaps it is the pain engraved in this labyrinth.
Objective: Log of Pain: Defeat Finn Modria Caution:
This adventure is very dangerous.
Current remaining time 「None」
「It is just beginning.」
The moment the message came to mind, the spirit doll began to move.
Huuuuung-!
As soon as it started, a red and rough energy gushed out from Finn’s hand. It was a very fast and difficult attack to counter.
[Record of Pain: Finn Modria uses the Blood Curse.]
[Gives excessive bleeding to enemies hit by the projectile.]
[Gives clotted blood to enemies hit by the projectile.]
As if shooting a gun . A projectile that flew at tremendous speed as if shooting.
As if Kang Seol had expected it, he covered Park Chang-sik with his body.
Wow!
“Huh…”
The Blood Curse itself didn’t do much damage, but it was difficult to block and because of the overlapping curses, it was an ability Finn used at the beginning of the battle.
Instead of the speed and powerful effect of the projectile, the shortcoming of this ability is that it has a long cooldown, so there are rarely situations in which it can be fired again during battle.
[Record of Pain: Affected by Finn Modria’s Blood Curse.]
[The Ring of Grace is activated.]
[Repels the Blood Curse.]
Fortunately, there was one countermeasure against the curse.
Snowfall, which nullified the curse, took advantage of this opportunity to move on to the next stage.
Whoa!
Whirling-!
Whirling-!
Karen and Karuna were summoned from his hand.
As if waiting for that, a red light flickered in Finn’s hand.
‘come.’
[Record of Pain: Finn Modria uses Season: Ruby Mirror.]
[Imitates the target creature.]
[The abilities of the imitated creature are limited to 50% of the main body.]
Finn used Season from the beginning.
Ruby Mirror was the technology that Kangseol was worried about.
An ability that is almost a nightmare for summoners, necromancers, and other professions that deal with creatures.
Of course, it seemed like he could easily deal with him if he only used that ability, but Finn’s doll continued to use its ability as if it was laughing at that idea.
Pushy…
Red fog encroached everywhere.
[Record of Pain: Finn Modria uses Season: Congested Flow.] [
Enemies affected by Congested Flow cannot use one of their abilities
for a moment.] [Congested Flow does not affect Seasons. .]
[Roll the magic resistance die.]
[The magic resistance die rolls an eye of 2.]
[Snowman Continuous: Cannot use Minion Enhancement.]
[The magic resistance die rolls an eye of 4.]
[ Carry Machine’s season: resists the blocked flow.]
[The magic resistance die rolls a 5.] [
For high resistance, add 1 to the die’s eye.]
[Karen’s season: resists the blocked flow. ]
Fortunately, Park Chang-sik and Karen resisted the magic.
[The magic resistance die rolls 1.]
[Karuna cannot use the connected soul.]
Karuna could not do that.
‘Damn… this is the worst! The soul is connected!’
It was good that Karen resisted the season, but Karuna’s soul was sealed.
The connected soul doubles the abilities of both twin knights when they are summoned.
In addition, since the strengthening of snowfall summons can no longer be used, the twin knights’ abilities will drop significantly.
Slurp…
“Power…”
Karuna and Karen also seemed to sense something was wrong, and their expressions became serious.
Kang Seol did not say anything to them. It seemed like it would be difficult to get their help in this battle.
‘If you do this… the only thing you can achieve is equal to the ruby mirror.’
They would have a hard time just dealing with their copies made of ruby mirrors.
“Hmm-!”
“under!”
Pot-!
Karen and Karuna jumped out at the same time.
They tried to make up for their drastically reduced abilities with spirit, but they could not expect overflowing power.
Only a few seconds passed from the start of the battle until the situation became like this.
This was also because most of the Blood Saint’s abilities did not require chanting.
Snowfall was also shot forward along with Park Chang-sik.
Kang Seol, who had already been in the form of a night crow, ran ahead of Park Chang-sik, aiming for the pin.
[Record of Pain: Finn Modria uses Rejection.]
[Pushes the target.]
Faaaaang!
“Sigh!”
Snowfall pushed back as if it were a bouncy ball.
‘As expected… the pattern is the same!’
Rejection dealt extremely minimal damage, but had a very short cooldown.
It was an ability that could be said to be the ultimate for a profession that can only inflict damage if it sticks like a snowfall in the shape of a night crow.
Park Chang-sik attacked after Kang Seol, who was thrown out.
“Yaaaa!”
“Look to the side!”
Park Chang-sik slowed down due to the urgent cry of snowfall.
And then I quickly fell backwards.
Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss-!
If Park Chang-sik had charged in, the bloody spear would have pierced his head.
“Huh…”
Kang Seol’s brow furrowed.
‘Finn is a turtle.’
A turtle that hides behind its hard shell and occasionally sticks its head out.
Not only was its enormous defense a problem, but sometimes, when it attacked, it had destructive power that would make your stomach tremble.
Getting caught in that attack was like having your finger bitten by a turtle.
Huh…
Huh…
Spears of blood continued to form.
The magic’s destructive power was nothing special, but if it touched the body, the part would rupture.
This was a characteristic of Finn’s magic.
‘We are not demonic beasts.’
Unless it was a magic beast boasting strong tenacity, allowing Finn to attack was the end of it.
Sssssssssssssssssssssssssss!
Kwasik!
Sssssssssssssssssssss!
Kwazijic!
When the bloody spear hit the ground, a small explosion and vibration occurred.
‘It’s about time…’
Finn’s offensive ability was not limited to the Blood Spear.
First of all, rejection was difficult and he had many other abilities.
It was absolutely impossible to attack easily.
Knowing Finn’s attack methods, it wasn’t easy to approach him carelessly.
Kang Seol was looking around and waiting for another situation.
‘I need a variable. The seasons will probably change soon….’
That was then.
Kugugugung…
The statue of the knight holding his sword backwards trembled.
[Penance: The season of knights is coming.]
[Swords sometimes fall on the battlefield.]
“Damn, this isn’t right….”
Kang Seol said and pulled back.
The sword fell to the spot where he had just been.
Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss-!
Quaaaang!
Giant swords began to fall all over the battlefield.
“Ugh!”
Park Chang-sik was scared and was busy avoiding the situation.
When I heard the sound of something flying, the sword was bound to land there.
Finn’s doll also hurriedly played with its feet.
Pot-!
Pot-!
At this moment, when everyone on the battlefield chose to dodge rather than attack, something popped out from the pin’s blind spot.
Huuuuuuung-!
black fist.
It was Snowfall’s fist.
Finn’s doll, startled, reflexively used rejection.
Paaaaang-!
“Ugh…”
Snowfall’s attack had no choice but to be pushed back by Finn.
And Finn’s doll realized.
That the snowfall attack was a trick.
Kwajiiiikik-!
A sword fell on Finn, who was unable to dodge while responding to Snow Seol.
Kang Seol, who expected a certain result, was soon disappointed.
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuch…
[Record of Pain: Finn Modria uses the Blood Veil.]
[Nullifies 75% of physical damage.]
[The completion of the Veil decreases.]
[Nullifies 50% of physical damage. ]
Finn’s doll with one arm missing.
Even if 50% of the damage was avoided, it would have been quite fatal.
“You’re still acting like a turtle.”
Sigh-!
‘[Record of Pain: Finn Modria uses Saesal.]
[Recovers 70% of the health just lost at a rapid rate.]
“… Wow.”
Suddenly, Finn’s doll started talking.
Kang Seol opened his eyes wide and concentrated to understand what he was saying.
Creaking doll.
Geek…
“Afflicted… Low…”
This was the memory Finn left behind in his penance of pain, a record of Finn who was exhausted and exhausted from the continuous fight.
Crackling…
Kangseol gritted his teeth and spoke to the doll.
“Wait… I’ll get you out of there soon, even if you don’t want to!”
Kugu Palace…
At that moment, the season on the battlefield changed once again.
[Penance: The season of the wizard is coming.]
