Only Noblemtl

Episode 773. Ancient Climbers (3)

Hasasin’s unique spear, ‘Invitation to the Black Night’.

It all starts with them bringing their clones together as one.

Woohoo!

The clones who died fighting in various places were sucked in.

at the same time.

[The power of the ‘First Assassin’ is revealed!]

“Hoooo… .”

The appearance of the messenger changed little by little.

Much sharper and cooler.

Just looking at the dazzling eyes caused various debuff effects.

‘The eyes of an unbeliever’.

Like the ‘Eye of Gluttony’, it is one of the top five eyes in the entire tower. Each of the two eyes has a different ability, but it is difficult to destroy or counteract it.

But on the other hand… .

It also means that this is a golden opportunity to obtain that fraudulent ability.

[Copy Condition: Hasashin, known as the Lord of the Black Night. In order to copy his abilities, you must show the most perfect ‘assassination’. The essence of assassination. Show a blow that penetrates its very roots. If you do so, you will be able to copy one of Hasashin’s unique spears and abilities.]

The ‘Eye of Gluttony’ had already seen through Hasasin’s status window.

‘A perfect assassination.’

This is an extremely subjective requirement.

Well, this isn’t something that’s happened for a day or two. But compared to the bizarre and crazy copying conditions of the past, this is pretty good.

If it were just a simple fight, I could easily cook one climber… .

‘It won’t be easy.’

If you want to copy the Frost Spirit’s abilities, you have to use your abilities mainly in the ice realm. So you have to fight with one arm tied up.

A difficult fight is expected in many ways.

furthermore.

The magical power spread throughout this area contained something subtly different from that of the Hasasin.

‘I need to check it out some more.’

There is suspicion, but no evidence.

Above all, I didn’t have the luxury of figuring that out right now.

Jinhyuk resisted the dizziness that was coming as he supplied different amounts of magic power to both eyes.

“Wow. Normally, you would foam at the mouth and collapse. You really are no ordinary human being, huh?”

A strange exclamation burst out of Hasasin’s mouth.

That’s understandable, since he regained consciousness faster than the Frost Spirit.

However, this is only a temporary measure.

Even with the effects of ‘Mental Barrier’ and ‘Ring of Frost Spirit’, they can never counter the uniqueness of those eyes.

“It’s not my first time fighting an odd-eyed monster. I’ve played with giant eyes, one-eyed monsters, and other strange creatures.”

“It looks like it’s going to be a pretty fun fight, seeing as the mouth is still alive.”

“Well, it wouldn’t be very fun if there was a hole in my throat, right?”

shit.

That’s what I said, but since it’s been so long since I’ve seen those eyes, I need time to get used to it.

The problem is.

The bitter reality is that there is no time for that.

Kwaaaaang!

A mountain-like impact felt from the side.

The curve was blocked by the First Blade just before it reached the nape of the neck.

Kagakak!

The curved blade that came down scraping the side of the blade aimed for the side.

Jinhyuk pretended not to know and prepared the counter while allowing it.

Right then.

[‘Curse of the Gap’ is activated!]

[‘Curse of Time’ is activated!]

Phew!

An annoying tinnitus pierced my eardrums.

Once again the curve has moved.

It was a timing I knew since I had already faced it several times.

I thought so.

Crunch!

A thick stream of blood gushed out from his side.

“Ouch.”

A groan escaped me involuntarily at the sharp pain.

I was lucky that I instinctively pulled away at the last moment. If I had been even a little later, my waist would have been split in two.

“That was shallow.”

The sergeant licked the blood on the sword with a regretful expression.

[The ‘power of identification’ seeps in.]

The power to figure out the fighting style of Ben’s opponents by drinking their blood. In addition, the two abilities he previously possessed were the ability to distort intervals and time, respectively.

“… … !?”

The eyes of the servant who had been savoring the blood rapidly dilated.

Beyond surprise, the feeling of fear radiated from my entire body without any filter.

It had to be that way.

“You… who are you? Your true identity?”

It’s not quite the level of a strong human.

A monster with tremendous combat sense and experience who has been through all kinds of hardships. Most ancient climbers wouldn’t even be able to show their business cards in front of this guy.

It’s dangerous.

The sergeant concluded as follows.

“This wasn’t the time to be playing around. I haven’t seen such monstrous specs since the monsters on the 50th floor.”

So from the prey.

The status has been elevated to that of an enemy that must be fought with all one’s might.

‘That’s why I should have finished it before it got worse.’

Dealing with two debuffs at the same time, interval and time, is not easy.

The difficulty level increases ridiculously as you climb higher. Seriously.

It’s good that I’m no longer treated like a human idiot, but the opportunity to make my opponent let their guard down has completely disappeared.

Right then.

[Frost Spirit activates ‘Millennium Freeze’!]

Tsk tsk tsk!

Pillars of ice rose up.

A biting cold air poured down, turning the area around Hasasin into an extremely cold prison.

fault!

The sergeant opened a large distance.

“Tsk. Useless rebellion…!”

It’s the attack of the Frost Spirit that will make you fall down. If you dodge it once, it’ll be over.

I thought so.

Kukukukuku!

The raging ice storm continued to pursue them.

He is shaking off the mental control that is squeezing him with a fearsome mental power and expanding the realm of ice.

“Are you… okay?”

“I’m fine, but Lord Frosthorn looks like he’s having a much harder time.”

“Yes. Since a while ago… I’ve been a bit… dizzy.”

The frost spirit’s complexion noticeably worsened.

Because of the aftermath of an ancient oath.

As time went by, she became more and more obedient to the orders of the subordinate.

⁕⁕⁕

Tower of Trials, 49th floor.

As befitting a place nicknamed the final gateway to the 50th floor, this was a sort of neutral zone that was not affected by the numerous storms of the tower.

Because it is closest to the 50th floor.

and.

Because the power of the two top-tier monsters ruling this place was so great.

They don’t feel the need to invade at all.

The primordial beings also had no reason to intimidate the twelve zodiac signs, which served as an excellent breakwater.

but.

Things have changed completely.

Unpredictable chaos has ensued as countless variables have thrown the balance out of whack.

And now.

Even in ‘Hwagwasan’, the home of Jecheon Daeseong, who is considered the strongest of the twelve zodiac signs, something never before experienced was happening.

“… … .”

“… … .”

A heavy silence fell among the monkeys lined up on either side.

It’s heavy and heavy.

So much so that it was difficult to swallow saliva or even breathe.

The first reason they felt the oppression like the deep sea was because of the discomfort of their king, Jecheon Daeseong.

The second reason was the strangeness of the person who came to see Jecheon Daeseong.

The first thing that catches the eye is the ornate golden crown.

and.

In contrast, the person wearing it is a skeleton without a single piece of flesh attached to it.

“Kekekekeke. It was a light suggestion, but is it something to worry about? King of the Fruit Mountain?”

The skeleton’s empty eyes looked at Jecheon Daeseong.

Around it, ominous black dust continued to rise upward.

“Not only did you suddenly come to my territory, but your rudeness is sky-high. And once you’ve died… isn’t that enough?”

Jecheon Daeseong’s eyebrows curved in an inverted pattern.

Kukukukuku!

The already tense atmosphere became uncontrollably worse.

Living.

The anger that poured out from the ruler of the 49th floor was not something that could be endured even though he still had his senses intact.

“Ugh.”

“Ugh.”

“Keeek. Keeek… .”

Even the guards who had trained for over 3,000 years were either foaming at the mouth or fainting. Only the elders were barely able to stand.

however.

“Indeed, it is amazing. It is a perfect match for the finale.”

The skeleton remained calm even in the midst of the raging typhoon.

It seemed as if it was not affected by magic.

Normally, the Jecheon Daeseong’s Yeoui Bang would have descended at this point. To smash that arrogant bastard’s head.

But this time, that wasn’t possible.

There was something on his head that even absolute beings could not help but know.

A veiled crown whose location has long been unknown.

‘Crown of Despair’.

It is only natural that they would be cautious, as they came wearing a crown that many forces had searched for with their eyes wide open but had not found even the smallest clue.

It might be different if there were no subordinates.

In a situation where the identity and depth of the opponent’s power were unknown, it was impossible to act rashly.

We must not repeat the mistake of causing the deaths of so many of our compatriots because of our stubbornness and pride.

“Three kings have already agreed to join me. Whether you like it or not, the primordial beings will inevitably be drawn into this war. I will make it so.”

“What grudge do you have that makes you want to do such a shitty thing on our territory?”

“Hahahaha! It’s not like I have any grudges. This fight was meant to happen here. How can you call it personal when the sun rises in the east and sets in the west?”

The skeleton burst into flames.

Then he continued speaking.

“I know you have a crush on Kang Jin-hyeok. However, he is currently fighting against the ancient climbers in the place where he used to live, so he is not able to help you right now.”

Eden, the Age of the Apostles, and the Fall of Lucifer.

It is not a prelude to peace and unity.

And even greater confusion.

It provided an opportunity for those who had been asleep for a long time to move.

[‘The subspace is opened.’

Oh my god!

Two skeletons emerged, tearing the air up and down in long slashes.

[‘Entity’s Hourglass’ is activated!]

Slurp.

Black grains began to fall from a giant hourglass made of the skeletons of countless races.

“You have three days to make a decision. If not, this mountain will become the epicenter of fierce fighting.”

Ultimatum.

A final offer with a deadline was handed in.

Jecheon Daeseong let out a deep groan.

To prevent this from happening, I have been working hard to unite the power of the twelve zodiac signs over the past few months, and above all, to persuade the Demon King.

Of course, I was trying to find the lost nembutsu, and I also made contact with the primordial beings and other forces. However, there was not enough time.

Now is the time to decide which side to choose.

The skeleton turned around.

He left a message saying he would come back in three days.

“for a moment.”

Jecheon Daeseong called him out like that.

“Come to think of it, I don’t know your name. If we were to make a deal, wouldn’t I have to tell you that much?”

Towering.

For the first time, the unstoppable steps stopped.

Permut.

“It was once called that.”

Permut took a moment to reflect on the past.

It was a skeleton with no facial expression, but for some reason all kinds of emotions flowed out of it.

However, it only lasted for a very short time.
