‘It’s snowing more than I thought.’
Is it because the subject of the request is Seolryong?
Since leaving the Frost Fortress, heavy snowfall has been falling nonstop.
Seun-ya was using the portrait monument, and since Yu Seo-ah was also specialized in the law, there was no problem in moving, but if it were anyone else, they would have quickly fallen into my sight.
‘As expected, it was a good decision to bring only Yu Seo-ah.’
Even so, the problem remained.
Even if you somehow overcome the cold, the heavy snow limits your visibility and slows down your movements.
So, obviously, flying is impossible.
As the movement was delayed, more stamina was lost, so Seun immediately prepared magic.
– ‘Wind Curtain’ is strengthened according to the magic of the green tower.
– The stability of ‘Wind Curtain’ is strengthened according to the magic of the Blue Tower.
Phew!
A green wind swirled around Seun.
True to its magical name, a curtain of wind swayed and blocked the heavy snowfall.
If it had simply blocked the front like a shield magic, it might have actually blocked the view, but the wind curtain exquisitely cleared the snow by changing the direction of the wind.
Thanks to this, moving has become several times more convenient.
“… … Thank you. It was actually quite difficult.”
“Me too. I didn’t know it would be this bad.”
The destination is the highest snow-capped mountain in the northernmost part.
I thought it would be easy to find the destination since it was the highest point, but that wasn’t the case as it was difficult to see even an inch ahead due to the pouring snow.
‘I want to blow away the clouds like I did on the 18th floor… ‘
In the 18th floor trial, Seun shot a fire cannon into the sky, burning the clouds and making them stop snowing.
I looked up at the sky, recalling that time, but soon I couldn’t help but shake my head.
Even back then, the snow was so heavy that it was hard to open my eyes, but now it’s even worse.
The extent of the heavy snowfall was also different from that time when it was like a shower.
Even if you fire a fire cannon with all your mana, it would barely be able to break through the heavy snow and reach the clouds.
Even if you blow away some of the clouds, new clouds will quickly fill the empty space.
I couldn’t waste my mana for that brief moment.
– The treasure trove of greed (眞) has been opened.
[ Remnants of the North Star ]
– As a vessel containing the starlight of the North Star, it is a compass that clearly points only to the North Pole in any situation.
A treasure trove of greed (眞) that I haven’t used in a long time.
There, he took out a sparkling compass, which he had obtained permission to use in return for offering the body parts of a fallen werewolf to Mammon.
“Mr. Se-un, that is… … .”
Instead of answering, Seun opened the lid of the ‘Remnants of the North Star’ and showed off its abilities.
As the lid opened, the blue starlight contained in the bowl spread out forward.
Pointing obliquely at the sky, it pointed accurately to the North Star even in the middle of a snowy day when not even the sky, let alone the stars, could be seen.
There was no need to hold it in your hand, as you could just leave the bowl open. With this, you wouldn’t get lost.
“How amazing.”
“let’s go.”
– The constellation, ‘The Crow with its Head Down’, looks down at you with a grave expression.
Mamon’s message came to mind, as if he was giving me a hint that I had used his warehouse.
No, maybe it was because I didn’t like the way I used to look at the scenes I actually saw recently, looking down at them as a system as a constellation.
With their direction confirmed and the blizzard resolved by the wind curtain, the two’s speed increased.
Yu Seo-ah’s magic had also grown so much that there were hardly any footprints left on the road.
The speed is similar to that of Seun.
As we were climbing the first mountain, the first enemy finally appeared.
“food…….”
“Kuruk, it’s rice. It’s rice.”
– The constellation, ‘The Hungry Prince’, cheers at the unexpected meal at the shelter.
A few rocks on the top of the snowy mountain rose from their seats, shaking off the snow.
Upon closer inspection, it was a monster whose skin was hardened like a rock.
‘Snowfield troll.’
No, it seemed to be a more powerful species than the average snowfield troll, both in terms of its skin and size.
Snowfield trolls that require a group of players to rush in to hunt even if just one appears. There were five of them gathered in one place.
“Mr. Se-un, do you know that monster?”
“Snowfield Troll. It has high regenerative power, so it can blow up vital points in one shot… … No, you’ll be fine.”
“yes?”
“Tarantula fangs. Even they wouldn’t be able to resist that.”
The troll’s regenerative powers are monstrously powerful.
These are the guys who recover completely even if their arms are cut off, their legs are cut off, or even their stomachs are punctured and all their internal organs spill out.
The snowfield troll is one that cannot die unless its heart, the source of its regenerative power, or the brain that controls it is destroyed, or its head is cut off with a single sword strike.
They also have strong resistance to poison… … .
– The constellation, ‘The Crowned Spider’, raises its leg to hunt them down quickly.
Constellation, crowned spider.
Even the most powerful snowfield troll would not be able to resist Baal’s power, ‘Tarantula’s Fang’.
“Let’s finish this quickly and go.”
“yes!”
Taat!
Se-un came forward first and took out the Durangdal.
Snowy trolls, they not only have high regenerative powers, but also have skin so hard that they can be mistaken for rock.
Because its skin tightly covers its vital points, it is an even more difficult monster as most attacks are impervious to it.
– The third technique of the Blood Wolf Sword Technique, Blood Wolf Attack, is strengthened through internal energy.
– The power of martial arts is strengthened according to the secret of the ultimate deep attack.
Crunch-
The guy couldn’t even take Seun’s sword.
The neck, protected by hardened skin and tough muscles, was cleanly cut off.
The boy’s body fell to the floor with his arms raised, remembering the old commands of his now-dead head.
On the back of Se-un’s hand, who was holding the Durangdal, a stigmata was emitting a dark red light.
‘It takes some getting used to.’
Se-Woon has not been able to carefully control his mad powers until now.
Once activated, I just had to grit my teeth and hold on until I defeated the enemy or my divinity ran out.
However, that method was not efficient.
It was necessary to appropriately adjust the power at the necessary moment.
For now, the goal is to manifest power when starting an attack, and end power when the attack ends.
The ultimate goal is to draw out power only at that split second, the moment when the attack reaches the enemy.
‘As expected, it’s tricky.’
Even though the troll’s head had already fallen to the ground, the stigmata’s light showed its hunger like a hungry wolf.
The stigmata glowed brighter, as if it would not disappear until all the remaining trolls were hunted.
However, Seun stopped attacking.
Even as the four remaining trolls rushed towards him, he concentrated and blocked all the holy lights shining from his stigmata.
Unlike his usual frenzy that lasted until he was satisfied, Stigma reacted violently to his attempt to restrain himself.
The stigmata seemed to growl at Seun as they vomited out the remaining light.
“Friend… … killed! It’s dangerous!”
While he desperately tried to control his stigmata, the remaining trolls rushed at Seun.
The two behind them threw rocks as big as their bodies, while the two in front swung thick wooden poles.
Even if your stamina is high, it is a dangerous attack if you don’t block or dodge it properly.
But Se-un did not avoid it.
Rather, it focused more on suppressing the stigmata.
The reason is that.
“Mr. Seun!”
Because Se-un was not alone now.
Crunch!
– Player Yushua rules over the ‘Snowfield Trolls’.
“Huh?”
Pubber pubber!
In an instant, Yusua appeared before my eyes and cut down the leading snowfield troll.
At the same time, the one running in front hugged Se-un, and of course, he ended up getting hit by the wooden pillar and two rocks that were headed towards Se-un.
“What is it!”
“Get out of the way!”
“That’s not it… … .”
The reign did not last long.
Even if you stab with your sword, you can only last a few seconds at most, so there was a limit to how long you could sustain it with just a short cut like now.
Besides, the opponent is a snowfield troll.
It was impossible for her to dominate weak monsters like in the anthill where she first showed her power.
Naturally, she was well aware of her abilities.
– Player Yushua uses the ‘Tarantula’s Fourth Leg’.
– Player Yushua uses ‘Tarantula’s Fang’.
Pooboobooboo!
The troll that was unintentionally guarding Seun suffered countless wounds on his body.
It was great that they were able to pierce through the hardened skin and cause wounds, but they were all shallow wounds and not fatal.
What’s more, the opponent is a troll.
This monster can recover from wounds like this in just a few seconds.
The attacked troll also believed in his regenerative powers and tried to counterattack, but… … .
“Ugh… Huh?”
The troll’s heavy body tilted sideways.
Compared to the wounds I had suffered in my daily life, it was a wound that was not even as bad as a new foot, but I couldn’t move a single finger.
A sharp pain in the heart that soon follows.
The troll felt dizzy as the pain felt like hundreds of spiders were biting at his heart.
“Kkuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!”
I screamed so loud my throat got hoarse, but the pain didn’t stop.
Just breathing and the beating of my heart was a constant agony.
At this moment, his insane regenerative powers felt like a curse.
And the troll realized that if he stayed still, he would never be free from this curse of suffering.
“Wake…….”
“Kkuu …
Snap!
– The constellation, ‘The Crowned Spider’, looks down with pride at the contractor who is handling his fangs so well.
The troll lost his senses and got up from his seat, grabbed the head of the troll behind him, and slammed it into him.
It wasn’t an attack.
Self-harm.
In this place filled with snow, I found only the hardest object.
Bam, bam, bam, crack!
I hit my head like that several times.
Whenever the eerie sound of skulls breaking was heard, the trolls cheered instead.
Finally, I can be free from this suffering.
The life or death of the troll who was his colleague and friend was of no importance.
Snap!
With the sound of skulls breaking, white brain matter was scattered around.
While the troll, freed from pain, fell down smiling, the opposing troll’s face was stained with resentment at having been betrayed by his comrade.
“Unbelievable!”
“How did it happen?”
The two horses watching from behind took a step back without realizing it.
The scene before my eyes was equally terrifying.
However, before they could even escape, Yusua ran towards the trolls with a swift movement, spraying the blood on her sword.
“I will protect you!”
“Run away!”
“It’s the devil!”
Tarantula fangs through the power of Baal.
Domination, the potential gained with the nickname of the whirlwind.
A quick and flashy technique learned from Seun.
A swordsmanship technique that has been steadily trained since the Earth.
All of this was creating synergy, and Yushua’s fighting style was taking shape.
