Solo Max-Level Newbie - Chapter 778



Only Noblemtl

Episode 778. Hidden Intention (1)

“Coolook… Ugh! Kkuuuuu…”

The lower body of the soldier, completely blown away, was breathing heavily and spitting out blood.

Magic power that evaporates quickly.

Because it was torn apart by such an overwhelming force, it did not recover at all.

“To… have… this… power… like this. Huh! Hahaha! Sir, it was me… who stood in the wrong line.”

With those words, Hasasin’s eyes completely darkened.

at the same time.

Tiring!

[Level up!]

[Level up!]

[Level up!]

[You have acquired the holy relic ‘Hasasin’s Rags’!]

[You have obtained the ‘Black Crescent Sword’!]

[You have obtained ’35 Advanced Magic Stones’!]

As if to console the regret of having spent 21 points, bold items dropped one after another along with the level up.

Jinhyuk immediately distributed the stats he gained through leveling up.

[Magic Power increases from 829 → 838!]

Once you reach double-digit levels in Final Genesis, you can use the High-Life Logistics. This means that, at least for the time being, you no longer need to sacrifice to reach higher levels.

For the subsequent battles, it would be best to invest all stats into magic power.

Next is….

Jinhyuk’s gaze turned to the side.

This time, even more important rewards and choices awaited them.

[Copy conditions achieved!]

My heart pounded happily as I looked at the golden status screen flashing before my eyes.

There are several options.

First, the ‘Eye of the Unbeliever’, which is one of the top five in the Tower of Trials, just like the Eye of Gluttony.

and.

‘Arangheuka’, a type of black magic.

I have to choose between the two… .

‘I’m having a hard time deciding because both of these abilities are so desirable.’

Even if we leave aside the unique ‘Invitation to the Black Night’ and ‘Residual Moonlight’ because they have many similarities, the two have their own charms and uses to the point where it’s hard to tell which is better.

The Eye of the Immortal, which can be used interchangeably with the Eye of Gluttony, and the spatial ability, Arangheuka.

If we are to consider the uses needed for the 49th and 50th floors in the future… .

Jinhyuk was troubled.

After about 10 minutes had passed like that.

[You have chosen ‘Arang and Heuk-ah’!]

[Arang and Heukah]

Difficulty of acquisition: Unmeasurable

Content: An ability that can only be obtained by achieving special conditions on the 50th floor of the tower. It allows you to summon Mur Fenrir’s fangs and tusks into the air and carve out space itself. It can be utilized in various ways depending on the user’s skill level, and when the ability reaches its peak, you can summon ‘Mur Fenrir’.

[Copied abilities are stored in the ‘World’s Memory’!]

where.

Jinhyuk lightly stretched out his palm toward the air.

And at the same time, he clenched his spread fingers.

Kwajik!

Sharp molars appeared and swallowed up the space.

“Haha… haha.”

A laugh that burst out of my mouth without me knowing.

I’ve collected and used a variety of abilities so far, but there aren’t many abilities that have both power, utility, and style.

I’m really eager to try it out in the next real-life situation.

furthermore.

[You have obtained 1 pack of ‘Green Flame of the Void’!]

[Applies status effects and sleep to all except the highest-level Primal Deities.]

What I gained was not only the ability and items of the vassal.

Green flames of the void.

Although it was only a one-time thing, one more card was added to deal with the worst possible variables that could occur on floors 49 and 50.

“Ugh.”

“Ugh.”

Groans came out here and there.

As Hasasin died, the rate at which the labyrinth collapsed increased.

The smoke clearing was also clearly visible.

It won’t be long before everyone comes to their senses.

Ah. Before that.

You must not forget this either.

Jinhyuk quickly activated ‘Glacier Formation’ around Hasasin.

Damn it!

As the bitter cold spread, sharp ice pillars appeared here and there.

‘Hmm. Let’s cut it down a bit more like this.’

‘Should we sprinkle some ice flakes there to make it a little more dramatic?’

‘I have to make a lot of sword marks. It makes it look like I’ve repelled countless dark weapons with my ice shields.’

It’s just a matter of staging a lengthy battle… .

It’s not that difficult for someone who has been trained through countless scams.

***

A few minutes passed.

Climbers who had fainted stood up, clutching their throbbing heads.

My consciousness is still hazy and my focus is not good.

There were short gaps between memories, as if a hazy fog had settled over them.

Still.

They clearly remembered what had happened to them.

A fireball that tramples not only abilities but also will.

Except for the messenger, no one could escape the green mist.

okay.

It would be normal for those who are hostile to him to be slaughtered while they sleep.

“You survived in that flame?”

The mortal opened his mouth blankly.

“As if that wasn’t enough, he even took care of the sergeant.”

The frost spirit’s blue eyes shook slightly.

Countless traces of frost engraved.

He must have defeated Hasasin with the same ice power as himself.

An indescribable sense of excitement and emotion chilled my entire body.

“If this happens… I might be able to regain control of the ‘Ancient Oath’. Seriously. I can’t believe it even as I watch it.”

Beltor added a word.

[Three climbers look at you.]

[Trust increases by +50!]

[They will grant even the most outrageous requests you make.]

“This would not have been possible without you all.”

With the barrier.

gun.

And even ice-level abilities.

Because everything was supported step by step to get here, the veteran Kang Jin-hyeok is here today.

“You thought of me that much… .”

“It’s nice to see you again.”

“I should have met you a long time ago, no, no, I guess we can get to know each other now.”

[Trustworthiness increases by an additional +20!]

[They will gladly grant even the most outrageous requests you make.]

Ahem.

Well, that’s not what I was hoping for.

If the climbers insisted on paying off their debt, there would be no reason to refuse.

And around this time, the final reward should arrive.

It was when I was thinking like that.

[Copy conditions achieved!]

As if waiting, an additional status window appeared.

Copy the Frost Spirit’s abilities.

Unlike the Hashashin, this one was very specific about what to copy.

[Copy the unique window ‘Old Snowflake’!]

Primordial Snow Flower

Difficulty of acquisition: Unmeasurable

Content: The will of frost that the frost spirit realized after thousands of years. It is possible to control the extreme snowflake made of the last knot. The passive ability that becomes the source of all coldness, the ice ability that you use from now on starts from this primordial snowflake.

[With the acquisition of the highest level ability, you will be able to use Glacier Heavenly Sword, the final stage of Glacier Sculpture!]

Wiggle.

The corners of Jinhyuk’s mouth twitched.

Coming to Amsterdam, I was really overwhelmed with the sense of destiny and good fortune that I was about to burst.

If there are pumpkins like this rolling around on vines, you can go there smiling even if you are carried in the airplane baggage compartment instead of economy class.

“Should I slowly take Teresa and Cheongha and leave?”

As for the rest of the climbers, they can be subjugated at any time as long as they keep the ancient oath, so it would be okay to leave them alone for now.

Jinhyuk slowly walked towards the place where the ancient oath was.

But right then.

Kuung!

The air here has changed abruptly.

A tremendous pressure weighed down the entire area.

The concentration of magical power is so strong that it almost seems to defy the law of gravity.

“Ouch.”

Jinhyuk bit his molars.

The rest of the climbers were also greatly surprised by the magical power that suddenly came over them.

Shiver shiver.

“This, this is….”

“no way….”

Some people trembled with fear, their whole bodies shaking like aspen trees.

Because the trauma that was engraved a long time ago is slowly coming back to me.

Tingling tingling.

Not only Beltor and the Death Eaters, but also the Frost Spirits, who were closest to the ranks of the Primordials, were under the same influence.

There are only a handful of beings in the entire tower who can display this level of power.

The feeling of discomfort that continued in the labyrinth.

Now I understand why Hasasin got his hands on ‘Arang Black’ and why he had a flame that no one could even imagine.

“No matter how much you give that idiot, he can’t do a single thing properly. If I had just stood by and watched, he could have gotten into even bigger trouble.”

Long hair with a purple tint.

At the end of an iron chain made of some unknown iron were tied several hunting dogs.

North Edik.

He is the highest of the primordial gods, and is also the king of all lords who command the Hounds of Tindalos.

‘Damn it. Why was it that guy who put a leash on the lower body of the officer?’

In this situation, a monster that I wanted to avoid as much as Shubniguras appeared.

But what a relief that is….

‘I guess one chain has already been used.’

Jinhyuk calmly cooled his head and shook off his despair.

It is true that North Idik’s power is fraudulent, but that is only when he can exert his full power on the 50th floor.

Outside the tower, there are bound to be significant restrictions.

for example.

Like the fact that the guy is only holding two chains left.

‘You only need to endure great power once, and weak power twice.’

If we can just get over that hump, it’s victory for us.

“Wow. You just created such a huge mental barrier. Do you still intend to fight? I’m already looking forward to seeing what you’ll show me.”

North Edik asked, buried deep in his thick fur coat.

The expression of interest is quite disgusting.

Yeah. Some people are fighting and throwing up blood and making a fuss.

Did you come back with your stamina and magic fully charged?

Jinhyuk immediately took out his newly acquired ability.

[‘Arang and Heuk-ah’ is activated!]

An instant weapon that activates just by extending your hand.

The teeth that carved out space bit right into the nape of North Edik’s neck.

Crunch! Crunch!

However, the teeth were blocked by something just before they could dig into the flesh.

“Ability copy. I heard it from Nyarlathotep, but it is truly an amazing ability. The sharpness of the fangs, and the timing of the stabbing. It seems that you have a better understanding of abilities than the one who gave you the power.”

“Thanks for the compliment. In return, I’ll bite your butt next time.”

“Haha. Sorry, but it’s my turn now.”

[The second chain opens!]

[North Idik summons the skill ‘Roar of Tindalos’!]

Hurrruk!

A huge firework appeared in the air.

The band of red flames, rotating counterclockwise, grew in size as the seconds passed.

Knock knock!

A sudden explosion occurred in the air.

Flames burst out here and there in the labyrinth.

[Skill ‘Glacier Heaven’ is activated!]

Snowflakes gathered.

A cold air was felt in the already dried-up air.

Snowflakes, which create something from nothing, bloom even in the hottest of fires.

“I’ll help you!”

Frost Spirit also joined in.

Kukukukuku!

A pure white chill was added to the snow flowers that were about to melt.

[Beltor summons the ancient barrier ‘Azure Lake’!]

“I didn’t plan on meeting a monster like that here.”

Beltor also clicked his tongue and summoned a barrier.

Kwakwakwakwakwakwang!

What followed was a clash between a gigantic field of fire and ice.

A storm of magical power beyond imagination.

The ice created by the glacial ice completely evaporated, and Beltor’s great plan was also destroyed after not lasting more than a few seconds.

Still.

“Phew.”

Endured.

If it had been an attack using more chains, it might have been different. A single chain wouldn’t have had much effect.

“Hahaha! That’s amazing. It reminds me of the battle with the Elder Gods. The skills, the class, and even the guts! Nothing is lacking.”

The failure doesn’t seem to bother him one bit.

North Edik burst into laughter, finding the situation even more amusing.

Then he used his last card.

[The ‘Third Chain’ is unlocked!]

This time it wasn’t an offensive ability.

It should be seen as a summoning circle that forcibly brings someone here.

[The existence of the 49th floor appears!]

Horns rising on both sides.

Despite his rather handsome appearance, the intimidating aura emanating from his body was not inferior to that of Jecheon Daeseong.

One of the twelve zodiac signs, ‘Uma King’.

In the end, it seems that they decided to be with the primordial beings.

So far, so expected.

however.

“… … !?”

Next to the Uma King was someone who could completely break Jinhyeok’s will to fight.
