Return of the Frozen Player 436

Entering the dusty, dark Daejeon, the old man looked around the inside.
A stout man who came in after me snorted.
“What is it, old man, are you lost in memories?”
“It is a place that has nothing to do with memories.”
“hmm. Still, I didn’t raise a few disciples here… …
The man’s complexion, which had been talking nonchalantly, turned pale.
It was the result of the old man’s nonchalant gaze directed at him.
“Sir, you made a mistake. If you feel bad, cancel it.”
“Don’t talk about my disciples carelessly.”
The man nodded and grumbled inwardly.
‘An old man known for having no blood or tears, the love of his disciples is terrible.’
but. That’s why the anger towards the dim is so great.
All the disciples of this old man were killed by him.
Colonel Tsarbokk, the man who wiped his slightly sweaty neck, opened his mouth.
“Still, thanks to you, I managed to complete the plan somehow. I honestly thought it would fail.”
“Funny. Who are you discussing failure in front of?”
The grand plan to connect the floors has already been in progress for decades.
The blueprint was received from the demons, and the entire Mine Association moved to airlift the material.
Colonel Tsarbokk, who had been with his subordinates during that glorious era, smiled bitterly.
“… … It would have been better if the Mine Association hadn’t collapsed.”
If that was the case, they would have been able to terrorize from the 1st floor to the 4th floor as they wished, using the super-giant gate.
Swallowing regret as he recalled the subordinates who were killed by the dimwits, he turned the topic.
“So, why did you suddenly come all the way to Outland?”
“There is something hidden.”
The old man, Najad Hollow, tapped the floor with his black wooden cane.
Then the fine ground cracked and a staircase appeared.
“Oh, is it a secret room? You know first.”
Tsarbokk visited here several times
It was the first place even the colonel had seen.
‘It must have been hidden by magic.’
It’s because I’ve never had the feeling that the lower part is empty when I walk.
“So what else are you doing here?”
Colonel Tsarbokk, who had descended down the Najad Hollow, opened his mouth wide.
“No, my God.”
In the fairly spacious basement, there were dozens of shelves that you would only find in a large discount store’s warehouse.
And on top of that, thousands of black marbles were placed in rows.
“This… … A demon jade?”
It was something that forced monsters to lose their intelligence and drive them crazy.
However, every time I was researching this in the middle of the day, I was interrupted by the dimwits, and in the end I failed.
“Wasn’t the experiment on the demonic sphere stopped after the test subject, ‘Tel Gia’?”
Najad tilted his head and looked upward.
Like someone thinking about something.
“Yes, it seems the Heavenly Demon gave such an order.”
“But why…
“At the time, the Mine Association didn’t have the energy to continue the experiment, but I didn’t.”
He quietly continued his research on Maok alone.
The results were these.
“The Mine Association may have failed, but
I have not failed.”
Najad Hollow held a demonic gem and looked at it lovingly, as if he were treating his own child.
Colonel Tsarbok glanced at him with an expression of embarrassment.
“… … Does Heavenly Demon-nim know about this?”
“I have no clue.”
“what?”
Colonel Tsarbok’s eyebrows twitched.
Najad Hollow makes the Heavenly Horse his superior
All executives knew that they would not admit it.
But this went beyond the limit.
“… … Among the materials needed to make a single demon jade, there are humans with demonic energy.”
Then, where did Najad Hollow get so many ‘humans with demons’?
Colonel Tsarbok’s eyes grew cold.
“It’s not like kidnapping. Did you use the association’s magicians?”
“Bugs anyway. we have
Aren’t there beings who don’t have anything to do with me?”
“… … Is that what you think?”
He said as he fastened his baggy duffel bag.
“But I just can’t let this go. I will tell the Heavenly Demon in detail.”
“Look, Tsarbok.”
Dark morale flowed from Najad Hollow’s body as he stared at Maok.
His cloudy eyes slowly ensnared the colonel.
“Why do you think I showed you this space?”
“… … What the fuck!”
The colonel, realizing that he had hooked it firmly, immediately threw the duffel bag at Najad.
At the same time, ‘Animal Stance (S)’ is activated. Both legs were replaced with those of a cheetah.
Taat! The colonel’s new model, who had hit the floor, climbed the stairs in a blink of an eye.
‘I can get away with it.’
His animal paintings are simply animal figures.
It wasn’t just to make you have it.
His ability is to exaggerate the characteristics of that animal many times over.
The moment the colonel reached the entrance of the temple and threw himself into the sunlit space.
Quadruped!
A rough grip from behind grabbed him by the neck and pinned him to the floor.
“Cuck!”
A tall knight clad in jet-black armor.
The colonel looked at it and bit his lip.
was
‘Death Knight!’
I heard an empty voice as I struggled under him.
“Please do not rebel. The outcome will be the same anyway.”
“This bastard.”
The colonel’s murderous eyes glared at Najad as he climbed the stairs.
“Do you think you will be okay with this? If the Heavenly Demon knows this… …
“He won’t know. Above all.”
Najad laughed coldly.
“Do you think that man would take revenge on you if he found out about this?”
know. He knew that the Heavenly Demon, to whom he had sworn allegiance, had no such recognition.
The colonel’s two trembling eyes turned to the magic jade held in Najad’s hand.
“Don’t look at me with such fearful eyes.”
A mad smile crept across Najad Hollow’s lips.
[The King of Corpses, Najad Hollow. Invasion of the Ruben Empire begins.]
[Najad Hollow, Ajax, Ozrin, Sigrang, and Gouteman Territory Rapid Breakthrough.]
[A necromancer who uses the power of God with a human body. Leading the Corps of Corpses to the north.]
Every blink of an eye is a new
The news trickled in.
The surprising thing was that out of so much news, none was good.
“What should I do in this case?”
“Was Najad Hollow’s goal a frontier rather than Earth?”
“It could be a sabotage operation. If we’re away, we can change course and aim for Earth.”
“that’s right. Even if you open a super-giant gate, there is no law telling you not to open it again.”
Over the past two days, it has finally been revealed that the 1st to 4th floors are connected.
To top it all off, news of Naja de Hollow’s trip to the North.
But despite the sad news, the earth was quiet.
“Surprisingly. I thought it would be plastered with articles about supporting them.”
“… … you said The days when Earth and the Ruben Empire called each other reliable allies are over.”
Skaja replied briefly.
The floors were joined together, but that was only two days ago.
“A globe inhabited by family and lovers, and a frontier inhabited by acquaintances at best. What would you choose?”
It was obvious as to which of the two the players would prioritize protecting.
“Uhm. I can understand it in my head, but I don’t feel sorry for it.”
“The problem is that leaving Frontier like that is also a handshake.”
said Skye with a deep sigh.
“The situation was strangely twisted, but in the end, new players will continue to be registered on Earth.”
They will try to attack the gate and raise the level to the second floor.
But what if a terrifying enemy called the ‘Empire’ lurks on the second floor?
“… … The growth rate will be limited.”
“that’s right. That’s why we can’t abandon the Frontier, to be exact, the Ruben Empire.”
Perhaps this was the exquisite target of demons and demons.
“The problem is Najad Hollow.”
He was being forced to make a choice.
And even while moving with an overwhelming army,
“You’re taking a ridiculous number of corpses with you.”
At least tens of thousands have been observed so far.
Of course, for players active on the 4th and 5th floors, it is possible to make a hundred per day.
The problem is that there aren’t that many players at that level.
“even… …
They wanted to protect the earth where their families and lovers stayed.
Because fighting Najad Hollow in the first place is a big adventure in itself.
“Hmm, is he that strong? So much so that elite players are afraid?”
“It is strong.”
Cha Si-eun said firmly.
“It is said that there is no correlation between the order of the nine thousand and the armed force, but it is an obvious fact that the lower the number, the longer it has been called the nine thousand.”
And Najad Hollow is the ‘second sky’ that guards the back of the Heavenly Demon at this point.
“In fact, the World Players Association announced that his risk level was the same as that of the Heavenly Horse.”
It was by no means overrated.
Even if he walks alone, he is an existence called Legion.
It was because it could bring the dead back to life and make them stronger, as well as being able to take them out anytime, anywhere.
“hmm. He said he was a necromancer, so I thought he was weak, but he’s quite a hitter
I see you.”
“I’ve never been able to take it lightly
It is.”
While listening to the conversation between the two, Seo Jun-ho was deeply troubled.
‘The Empire is strong.’
The knights commanded by the emperor, millions of soldiers, and the wizards of the Mage Tower affiliated with the court mages.
Certainly, the power of the empire could be called the strongest of all the floors so far.
But there is one huge blind spot.
‘The bigger the power, the bigger it is. It takes a tremendous amount of time to come together.’
The elite army of the Empire is on duty in the frontlines of the north, south, east and west.
The Knights are located in the capital city, and the Mage Towers are scattered throughout the empire.
‘It takes a lot of money and time to bring them together.’
Najad Hollow, on the other hand, is not.
He has no regrets when the situation is unfavorable.
It’s enough to change places.
It is said that, if necessary, guerrilla warfare could be launched.
‘There is an overwhelming difference in mobility.’
In order to deal with such a guy, there was no choice but to increase his mobility as well.
The problem arose there.
‘To increase mobility, it’s better to be in the minority. but… …
Najad Hollow leads legions despite his high mobility.
In other words, the moment you match the mobility,
cannot guarantee victory in an all-out war.
That was the scariest thing about him.
“Whoa, that hurts. It’s not too difficult to deal with.”
“It definitely hurts.”
. …..
While taking a break in the temporary barracks, the hair of the party stood on end.
The moment when everyone prepares to attack at the appearance of a stranger who was not there.
“Wow. First of all, calm down.”
The man laughed lightly and took off the gray bowler hat he was wearing.
Then, narrow eyes curved like a crescent moon and a smiling face were revealed.
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen you.”
“… … Gray?”
1st Floor Manager Gray.
he said with a bright smile.
“I have come to tell you something good.”
