Chapter 138 The Knight of Protection

Jihoo greeted the morning.

It’s a relaxing morning after a long time. There are many things to do, but there is nothing to design new things or urgently study, so it was much more relaxed.

Now that winter is in full swing, the snow flurries. Still, after opening the window and ventilating, I stood in front of the wood-burning stove and warmed my hands while brewing coffee.

“I wonder if you can go to the 9th floor [empty space] with all your power now.”

[Heaven – One Hundred Islands].

It is so unusual that it is called the most mysterious place in the [Indomitable Tower]. A rock the size of a small island floats in the air in empty outer space.

Those who saw the difference between the 8th and 10th floors said that the 9th floor was the way to hell. It is also called the dimensional boundary.

The stairs from the 10th floor, the 11th floor was openly the entrance to hell.

‘It’s a flying artifact, it’s already ready, and I’m going to go up to the 10th floor in no time with [ghosts].’

The scariest thing on the 9th floor is the spirit monster.

[Self-destruct attack], a block of magical power.

[Race] like looking at Casper.

A [void earthworm] that eats up the air.

[Electric Hummingbird] that bursts lightning.

etc.

This is where strange monsters appear sporadically. A scary place where if you stay there for more than an hour, your mind will collapse and your body will also wander in outer space.

Usually those who pass through the 9th floor form a party, defense and movement. Use the method of heading to the 10th floor as quickly as possible through defense and movement.

‘That would be better.’

There is nothing to gain from the 9th floor anyway.

Even if there is, it is right to avoid it for safety. Still, the 10th floor isn’t too difficult, it only takes 13,000 steps to climb.

“… … That would be more difficult.”

Fortunately, on the 9th floor, there are rewards that increase [Mental Power] and [Sense], and on the 10th floor, [Persistence] and some physical abilities.

The biggest problem was the 11th floor… … .

‘It’s not something I can think of right away.’

Rather than that, I had to find the [Fragment] that was said to be on the 8th floor.

“Ughyagya.”

After stretching, Jihoo went through the list of quests to be completed today.

‘I need to complete a wand of healing, and I need to make an undead core.’

There is a lot to do.

Fortunately, I didn’t have to worry about each customer, but making two level 7 artifacts wasn’t easy at all.

Still, I raised a lot of money.

Recently, tens of billions of dollars were spent to purchase mana stones and various materials to create an undead core, but tens of billions of dollars were filled as they were.

Even in the hideout made on the 3rd floor, there was also a supply of intermediate magic stones.

‘I guess I’ll have to prepare for old age soon. Is it right to learn financial techniques? Even if I collect it like this, it’s only an instant.’

The artifact Jihoo needs to create is level 10 or higher. Or it will be a treasure grade, and tens of billions of dollars is an instant to get the right material.

What if you make and sell a treasure grade?

You can earn over a hundred billion right away.

However, if that happens, they will spend money to make a [Legendary] grade artifact.

“Ehh, can I help it?”

I’ve lived my whole life like this

Even if you fail, you won’t starve if you make and sell emotional abilities and basic artifacts. It was time for the next climb without a hitch.

* * *

The 8th floor is still there.

This time, it’s Lee Hee-yeon and Kim Mi-ji, not Jeong Woo-yeon. And [Knight of Soul] and [Black Child] were together.

“Wow-wow.”

Lee Hee-yeon vomited.

But this time, I was able to walk alone by wearing the [Medium Mental Resistance] artifact that Jihoo had saved.

“… … It sure looks tough though.”

“Is it because my mental strength is so low?”

Jihoo and Miji Kim used to talk vaguely and politely with each other, but now they decided to stop talking altogether. It was thanks to the increased time we spent together at the general store.

jerk- jerk-

There is a black child and a knight of the soul in the back.

And just then, a group of ghouls appeared.

“A group of level 5 to 6 ghouls. About thirty.”

“… … Can you see that?”

From nob le mt l. co m

Miji Kim asked in surprise at Jihoo’s muttering. Heeyeon Lee also looked far away with tired eyes and shook her head.

“You made another strange artifact. Does what I see make sense? I can vaguely feel it too- Ugh!”

“… … stay still Go to the next floor as soon as possible.”

“Make some artifacts that increase your mental strength. Or, is there no potion like that?”

Jihoo didn’t say more.

[Set Intervention] could cure her, but I didn’t bother. It has no effect on Ji-hoo, but for those with low sanity, the 8th floor is a place where you can increase your sanity level.

I didn’t want to take away the opportunity to grow.

‘Intermediate resistance would be enough.’

Jihoo sent the spirit knight and black child.

“Let’s see how well you fight.”

Kim Mi-ji or Ji-hoo’s magic could have wiped it out, but they didn’t bother. The two undead were created to be used at times like this.

Do-do-do-do-!

Heukah’s size swelled and changed into a designated defense posture, and the spirit knight emitted a degraded aura blade.

The two of them ran very fast, but the speed was definitely faster than the spirit knight, and the black one was far behind.

Wow!

The spirit knight who collided with a group of ghouls cut three heads at once, and Black Ah arrived late and broke one of them.

Whoops, whoops-

As expected, the ghoul opened its mouth and tried to bite Black’s forearm, but Black’s kiriyum combined with armor with level 8 defense was unblemished.

Rather, the ghoul’s teeth came out.

“… … Ugh, that hurts.”

Heeyeon Lee muttered with her head bowed. It seems like you’ve been watching it all along.

“Are you sure it’s worth it? It’s gone in less than a minute.”

In fact, the two undead were unscathed, and the spirit knight had cut off the head of the last ghoul.

Lee Hee-yeon, who was watching the scene, said.

“… … That’s right, but I don’t think there’s any chance for me to step out?”

But it was as soon as he said it.

Wheein-!

I heard a strange wind noise in the distance. It was no ordinary wind. Rather, it was a grotesque sound close to a scream, and the three of them felt the chill.

“Prepare for battle.”

At Ji-hoo’s words, Kim Mi-ji immediately raised her magic and prepared the magic, and Lee Hee-yeon slapped her on the cheek twice and raised her shield and great sword.

Jihoo brought out thunder instead of magic.

‘what?’

‘It’s the front. Isn’t it a joke that it feels rough?’

‘I’ll prepare arrows of flame first. It’s not a large undead, is it?’

‘see.’

The energy came first, and it took a few seconds for it to be visible to the naked eye. The first thing Jihoo could see was a knight.

Death Knight riding a ghost horse.

“… … I’m going crazy.”

Jihoo saw that [Read] was not activated and aimed at the thunder.

‘If it’s a ghost, there will be [Advanced Acceleration] as well as Blink. I can’t even hit that revolver at this distance.’

Those were the words of Lee Hee-yeon.

Jihoo listened to the [Dragon Witch] at those words. And he became close to the spirit knight and black child.

at that time.

Skip.

Death Knight riding a ghost horse disappeared from sight. Obviously, at this distance, even if Blink was used, it should be visible.

But no.

‘Then what is invisible speed?’

Jihoo activated [Super Concentration] and [Time for Setting]. Waiting for automatic activation was dangerous.

Hee hee hee!

then it was seen

A fast-running ghost horse and a death knight with shining blue eyes. Suddenly, something strange happened. It appeared to be a Death Knight, but it was an unusual entity that Magi could not see.

-One of the brightest stars in [Indomitable Tower].

-I found the [Fragment] of [Setting Intervention Permission (EX)].

-[Quest] is activated.

『The Fifth Star of the Tower [Quest] [Second Piece]』

: This is the ‘Knight of Protection’, which was the ‘first vassal of the Demon King’. The knight ‘Fentry’, who lives by the power of the tower, not by magic, was one of the brightest stars in this tower.

* [Freedom of Stars]

-You are a being who is in contact with Pyeonrin. Only you can free Knight Fentry.

– Subdue Fentry with overwhelming power.

* [select]

– Freedom or dependence.

-???

“… … .”

Jihoo tilted his head.

Because there was a question mark.

‘I’m telling you to subdue it first.’

Whoops!

In the distance, the Spirit Knight and Fentry collided. But I couldn’t compete. The Spirit Knight was pushed back by Fentry and was pushed back more than 10m.

Black-Ah, perhaps thanks to his intermediate level artificial intelligence, didn’t immediately run into Fentry at his own pace, but instead came in front of Ji-hoo.

“[An arrow of intensification].”

fire of anger.

It is not a fire made to increase destructive power by simply raising the temperature. It is a flame that can be used only when it has a 5-star rating, and it is a magic that rips the target apart with the addition of [Rage].

Shoot aaa!

It wasn’t even one.

Dozens of fiery arrows flew at Fentri. But he wasn’t the kind of person who would take it lightly.

A few evasive maneuvers.

And even Blink.

But Kim Mi-ji’s magic wasn’t that simple either. The most forward arrow had a guiding function, and the arrow that followed had an explosive function.

It was an expression of his will to inflict damage even if he failed to hit the target. But even that was to no avail. Because it didn’t do any damage.

Fentry had already arrived right in front of Jihoo.

aaang!

However, Jihoo’s [Purification] was blocked by the force field.

Jihoo felt it.

‘I can’t go for a few seconds.’

Black-Ah attacked from behind, reaching 3m in length, and Fentry turned and cut Black-Ah’s head.

But even black is not easy.

Kagaga River!

He raised his arms to defend his neck.

Fentry’s sword blade pierced 2/3 of his arm, but Heukah poured in a series of attacks casually, and when Fentry tried to counterattack again, Lee Hee-yeon’s greatsword hit Fentry’s back.

Kaaang!

But it didn’t hurt at all.

Lee Hee-yeon lacks offensive power.

Taaang!

Heeyeon Lee’s shotgun.

Soul Knight’s Aura Blade.

Black-A’s torso headbutt.

Big!

Wow!

Fentry formed a shield to deflect all attacks.

it was a sword

Once you can use the Aura Blade, you will be able to form a film made of Aura. A defense technique that is similar to a force field, but on a different level.

In the meantime, Kim Mi-ji was preparing another magic, but Fentry was much faster.

go by go!

Fentry’s aura blade easily cut Jihoo’s force field, and the blade of blue magical power came right in front of Jihoo’s nose.

Flash-!

Fentry’s eyes shone.

This guy was aiming for Jihoo, and Jihoo noticed it too. That’s why Jihoo didn’t prepare magic, and he didn’t even aim at thunder.

The work he was continuing to do was to raise the level of [View] and use [Set Intervention]. No matter how you look at it, this was the only thing that could subdue this ignorant bastard.

“save.”

It was a short word from Jihoo.

Fentry’s deadly eyes went out.

Like a doll with a broken thread.

dump.

One of the brightest stars in the [Indomitable Tower]. The knight of divine protection, Fentry, collapsed like that.

Of course, Jihoo wasn’t easygoing either.

“X-foot, it almost became X.”

It was sincerity that came from the depths of the heart. If Jihoo tried to solve it with thunder or magic, he would have run out of time.

that was certain
