Monster Heavenly King - Chapter 148



Only Noblemtl

148. 6th floor (2)

Pavat!

Choaaaak!

As he swung his sword, countless black energies shot out and bit the snow mammoth’s legs.

However, the guy’s solid body was intact, as if he didn’t even know he had been hit.

“Are you saying that even an attack of this level won’t send a message?”

“Poooooooo!”

As he swung his legs with a roar that was no different from an attack, the trees were swept away and fell down.

Although he merely swung his legs without doing much, the creature’s massive body was a formidable weapon in and of itself.

If you allow even one, you will not be able to achieve success.

“This is what they mean when they say we’re in different weight classes.”

This side’s attack doesn’t work properly, but that side’s attack is a critical hit even if it just grazes.

Isn’t there a limit to unfairness?

-If you had evolved into a bone dragon, you would have been able to confront it head on.

“No, I guess I should just watch the monster movie. Besides, even if I become the Bone Dragon, I don’t think it’ll end with just breaking a bone or two if I fight it.”

-What’s one or two? It’s fortunate even if dozens break.

“… This kid?”

You’re saying everything as it comes, even though it’s not your fault.

Hyunseong, grumbling like that, climbs the boss’s body once again.

“Poooo!”

The guy’s long nose swung around to catch Hyunseong, but it only cut through the air that had already passed by.

Hyunseong lands on the long nose and runs in a straight line to his destination.

His goal is –

‘It’s snow!’

No matter how strong a body is, its eyes are bound to be vulnerable.

I think this guy’s cornea could probably stop a bullet, but it’s still weaker than other areas.

He shook his head violently from side to side to try to get himself off, but Hyunseong kept his balance as if he was in a circus and gradually got closer to the guy’s head.

Suuuup!!

A snow mammoth takes a deep breath with its mouth wide open.

Immediately afterwards, a sharp cold air burst out from my nose.

Tsk tsk tsk!

He was just blowing cold air from his nose, but the skin on his long nose was freezing.

I wondered if this was some kind of self-harm, but it didn’t seem to be that.

-It’s to freeze the enemy attached to its body! This guy has absolute resistance to cold!

“Crazy, it does all sorts of things!”

-Be careful, it’s not just freezing!

“what?”

Tsk tsk tsk!

Pavabababak!

Before I could even hear the answer to that question, ice picks began to rise from the bridge of the guy’s nose.

Hyunseong cut off the ice spike that was rising from the side, aiming for his side.

The ice picks appeared in his wake, as if they were tracking him.

Ice picks approach from the front as well as from behind, gradually narrowing the encirclement.

“You’re a big, distracting person, but aren’t you good at controlling your coldness?!”

-This is basic for the people living here. Think of it as the basics when fighting in the future.

“That’s some really encouraging advice.”

I was so motivated that I felt like I wanted to get to the 7th floor faster than hunting on the 6th floor.

While he was saying that, Hyunseong reached the guy’s huge eyes.

Let’s scatter the black energy towards the eyes,

Kyaang!

“What the hell?”

Are you saying that was the sound that came from your eyes?

I never thought I’d hear a noise like that in my eyes.

I was confident that I could cut rocks with that sword just now, but what the heck.

Isn’t it too hard?

“Isn’t this a bit too much?”

There is a limit to unfairness.

Who would have thought that even the eyes would be this hard?

but,

“Poooooooooo!!!”

The guy was furious, wondering if it wasn’t completely ineffective.

Tsk tsk tsk!!

“?!”

Hyunseong quickly distances himself from the cold air that begins to envelop the guy’s entire body.

If I had pulled away even a little later, I would have been trapped in the ice.

As the distance widens, the figure of the guy comes into view at a glance.

The ice that grew from the snow mammoth’s body seemed to form armor protecting it.

Hyunseong gritted his teeth as if he liked the sight.

“So it works.”

Because it was to let him know that his attack had worked on him.

Seol-ah muttered with regret as she looked at the boss who was in pain.

-If I had attacked a little more properly, I could have taken one eye.

Wouldn’t this just make it more and more difficult to approach?

At those words, Hyunseong could not help but shrug his shoulders.

“It was an attack I did my best at.”

It also took time to gather internal energy to make a strong attack.

Because he was a sage, he was able to avoid all attacks and attack to that extent. If it were another awakened person, he would have fallen before even getting close to the eyes.

“The 6th floor is too high of a standard?”

I thought I knew why the other Awakened people stayed on the 6th floor for so long.

I thought the guys I met on the 5th floor were just guys who did simple things, but when I got to the 6th floor, they were even worse.

“Is there really this much difference between each forbidden area?”

-Actually, it’s a little different from what I remember.

The difficulty level may vary depending on the combat style and attributes, but originally, the volcanic zone and the ice and snow zone were not this different.

Although the Snow Mammoth was strong, one cannot help but wonder if it was to this extent.

-If we look at strength alone, the owner of the ash would be stronger… . Is it possible that there is some kind of systematic correction for each floor?

“… That could be the case.”

It occurred to me that maybe that wasn’t such a far-fetched idea.

The difficulty of the labyrinth increases considerably with each floor, but it has increased to a level where it can be conquered somehow.

If it had been at the original level, it would have been impossible to conquer it, so it is possible that there were systematic restrictions on the monsters on each floor.

‘If there is no system correction or anything like that…’

The labyrinth conquest probably became quite difficult starting from the 5th floor.

Because from the 5th floor onwards, the frequency of appearance of legendary and disastrous characters increases.

What on earth was the intention of the guy who created the labyrinth?

What do you plan on doing by making the Awakened stronger?

-Are you looking for an opponent to fight like the Heavenly Horse you defeated?

“There’s no way there’s another crazy guy like that… I guess there is.”

I couldn’t bring myself to say no.

The world is full of all kinds of crazy people.

It wouldn’t be strange if there was one more guy like that.

“If that’s really the case, he must be really crazy.”

He even created a labyrinth just to create someone to fight him.

He could be said to be a madman more capable than the demon he had defeated.

Hyunseong grits his teeth to focus on the battle again, deciding to leave the small talk for later.

“Poooooooo!”

The snow mammoth’s roar shook the air.

His already large body looked even more massive when he wore ice armor.

Choaaaak!

The boy buried his nose in the snow and lifted it up, causing the accumulated snow to fall like snowflakes.

You might ask what kind of attack this is, but when a creature as big as a snow mammoth does this, it is threatening.

They said that snowflakes were falling, but the scale was on a whole other level.

From the perspective of the person being targeted, it looks like the eyes in the sky are trying to swallow them up.

“Ugh!”

With a short shout, he swung his sword like a bell, and the snowflakes covering the sky split in two.

And then

Ta-da-da-dak!

He showed off his skills by climbing onto the body of a snow mammoth using the fluttering snowflakes as a stepping stone.

Kagagagagagak!

Pachajajajajang!

Hyunseong runs, breaking the ice that surrounds the guy’s body.

Although it was an ice armor that was harder than rock, it shattered like glass in Hyunseong’s hands.

In fact, anyone who gets to the 6th floor can easily break the snow mammoth’s ice armor.

‘The problem is regenerative power.’

The problem was that since the coldness that the guy possessed was his foundation, no matter how much he was destroyed, he would continue to regenerate.

In the process, the ice armor changes into a form more suitable for fighting enemies.

sometimes,

Pachin!

Clang! Clang!

Like this.

It became part of the attack method by exploding or driving the opponent in.

He continued to avoid attacks by a margin of a single sheet of paper, as if he was walking a tightrope, and headed toward his target.

This time, the place he was targeting was the neck.

“Poooooooo!”

As we got within nose-touching distance, the guy lifted his nose and blew out cold air.

-Ugh, it’s gross! This is just breath in the end!

“Don’t talk nonsense when you’re fighting! If you don’t want to travel inside my long nostrils!”

-Don’t make me imagine!

Boom!

Tsk tsk tsk!

The giant nose that came towards me, spewing cold air, failed to catch my attention and shattered my poor ice armor.

In the meantime, Hyunseong, who had reached Mok, held Seol-ah and concentrated his mind.

Heavenly Demon Sword Technique

Penetrating the heavens

A herbivore that can pierce even the sky by putting everything into one point.

The explanation may sound grandiose, but to put it simply, it was just a stab.

However, if Hyunseong were to use his full power, that stab would have a power of a different level.

Boom!!

A recoil felt with a huge explosion.

It felt like my arm bone would fly off if I made a mistake.

“It’s so damn hard!”

Seol-ah was half-implanted in the snow mammoth’s body.

In other words, it meant that even if Hyunseong hit it with all his might, he could only hit half of it.

It was so bad that it even pierced through space.

‘still…’

The important thing was that it hurt.

“Poooooooo!!”

A guy who lets out a roar of pain.

It wasn’t easy to stay together because of the intense struggles.

Hyunseong pulled out Seol-ah while maintaining his balance even while shaking.

And once againㅡ

Phew!

I put the snowball in exactly the same spot.

This time, Hyunseong stabbed everything.

and,

Whoosh whoosh!!!!

Sparks burst out from the guy’s body, which was filled with cold air.

A guy who is struggling, not knowing what to do, because of the heat he feels for the first time since he was born.

‘Just one more time!’

I felt like the destination was right before my eyes.

Judging by his reaction, he’ll be out of breath on the next attack.

It may seem like the realm boss is helpless with just one wound, but this is just how battles are.

‘furthermore…’

A small dot piercing the boss’s skin.

He put his strengths into this point.

Twice in the exact same place.

If we compare it to a human, it would be no different from having a knife stuck in your throat, so wouldn’t it be more courageous to be alive?

Hwaaaaaaaah!!

As I pulled out the snowball, the flames that had been causing a commotion inside spread to the surrounding area.

A fire demon that engulfs the entire area.

Soon after, the flames gathered again towards Seol-ah, and the condensed flames-

“Let’s go!”

Phew!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Kwaaang!

It literally pierced the snow mammoth and burned it.

Easy, easy.

A snow mammoth with its eyes turned upside down, accompanied by the sound of the wind blowing away.

What was surprising was that even in this condition, he was not dead yet.

Even though he is an enemy, his stamina is so amazing that it is admirable.

But in the end,

“Poooooooo…”

A boss who lets out a dejected roar unlike any he’s ever heard before, unable to control his heavy body.

Kuung!

The guy’s body was buried in the snow.

At the same time, a system notification window appears before your eyes.
