Return of the Frozen Player 623
Pandemonium achievement (2)
Horizon, who arrived late, could only see two things.
One was a city swallowed up in rolling darkness.
The other was a purple-skinned woman looking at the scene with a face filled with delight.
she asked.
“Hey, isn’t it pretty?”
Horizon opened her mouth, wary of the various tattoos all over her body.
“Don’t talk nonsense. What about Gorgon?”
“I was behind. Can’t you see that?”
He stared blankly at the city at the question returned to the station.
A huge darkness rolled over and chewed through the city.
Maybe everything in that city will be reduced to ashes
I will never stop doing that until I do it.
“… … Did he even come down himself?”
“it’s crazy? No matter how stupid the Gorgon was, he’s not the type of person to commit a crime like that.”
know.
The reason I asked such a question even though I knew it was because I was very used to the darkness that engulfed the city.
“But isn’t that the Sentinel of Darkness?”
“okay. I am the guardian of darkness.”
The Dark Sentinel was an ability with a special meaning that could not help but feel special to the counts.
The question is why the power of an ‘ally’, which should be felt more reassuring than anyone else, swallowed the Gorgon.
“Let’s ask one thing.”
The mood at Horizon has changed.
The light shade of the day disappeared and a hard expression took over his face like a determined warrior.
“The Gorgon raised the theory of an alliance between you and Orpheus a few days ago, is it true?”
“under.”
The woman snorted, glanced at me, then turned her head again.
“If so, you wouldn’t be breathing so comfortably by now, would you? Because I or Orpheus will be destroying you.”
“..eww “
TH.
“You must be a player.”
“A Gorgon was beaten by a player? Do you think it makes sense?”
“He’s an idiot, you were suspicious too, so why do you think it doesn’t make sense?
summer solstice?”
Certainly, the fact that Gorgon was in bad shape had been revealed a few days ago.
“Did you know?”
“I knew.”
“Then why didn’t you move?”
“If I waited quietly, you’d be quick-witted and quick-tempered, but why me?”
Horizon made a shit-chewed expression.
It seems like I suddenly became a stupid and impatient demon.
He looked back and changed the subject.
“Any traces of the culprit?”
“Clean. When I arrived, I already felt nothing.”
“Tsu”
a guy who knows how to fight He’s not just a strong guy.
“Then it’s open. If he was a real player, he would have run downstairs by now.”
“Can’t jump out.”
Lavie smiled and looked back at him.
“Remember what the Gorgon said? When we had a meeting about the 5.5th floor.”
“… … Did I mention that there are people who are annoying?”
“that’s right. It was player Seo Jun-ho.”
At that time, Gorgon asked to kill him, even if it was too much, but no one agreed.
“ah! I don’t think the state of the body has gone to taste… …
“It must have happened because I pushed through it alone.”
Thinking so, all the puzzles fit together.
“indeed. So, did that guy named Seo Jun-ho rise to the level of adultery? Wait, poetry doesn’t make sense?”
At that time, that person had to be looked after carefully, and he was only at the beginning of the level of liberation.
No matter how much time has passed since then, you’re already at the level of adulthood?
“Well, sometimes there are geniuses like that.”
“Nonsense. How can a human… …
But even if it wasn’t him, it was almost certain that a third party had appeared among the players.
“Then what do you mean you can’t run away?”
“I used my hand at that time too. Not stupidly like the Gorgon, but cleverly.”
Lavie, who had a subtle smile, chuckled.
* * *
Standing in front of the dimensional elevator, Seo Jun-ho put on a confused expression.
[You have killed the count of demons. Use is prohibited until another Pandemonium Count is defeated.]
“What is this, and why?”
I’ve never had this before, but the elevator wouldn’t open.
A state that can only be thought of as a failure.
-It seems that the demons used their hands.
“You used your hands, you interfered with the dimensional elevator? Is that possible?”
– Didn’t the managers and Seongjun do the same? From the ninth floor, the role of the floor was completely lost.
“It is, but… …
I never thought that it would even be possible to prevent the return in this way.
Seo Jun-ho, whose plan was tightly twisted, stood idly by for a while.
“To think that I can use it only when I catch another Pandemonium Count… … It means to be locked up.”
-I was hit by a more elaborate number than I thought. Perhaps you are ready to find a partner as well.
That was right.
There was no guarantee that you could survive just because you were stupidly hiding.
-Partner, first of all, you have to move from this place.
” know.”
But where? My head went blank at the question of myself.
Seo Jun-ho looked at the road he had passed and sat down on a nearby rock.
“There will be enough time to go through your memories.”
He displayed the memory images absorbed from Gorgon.
“Multi-screen, screen magnification, 5x speed.”
Dozens of screens come to mind in an instant, the voices mix and make your eyes dizzy.
smeared
However, Seo Jun-ho perfectly understood the contents of all the videos.
To others, it might seem like just sitting still and watching a video, but it was a task that consumed a lot of concentration.
‘The first thing you need to know… …
It is also information about the rest of the counts.
How strong they are, what abilities they have, and what weaknesses they have.
After watching for about an hour, Junho removed all screens.
-The level of the remaining Counts descends in the order of Orpheus, Lavie, and Horizon.
As the intuition said, the current counts were in the middle of the 1st and 2nd rounds.
When Gorgon was there, the balance was maintained in a state of 1, 3, and 3.
‘Western Horizon’s physical is overwhelmingly good.’
Physically, he was the only one among the three counts.
First of all, no surprises or irregular attacks will work against this guy.
It was because he had the level of physical ability to see and avoid even new skills.
“To catch the Horizon, it would be faster to hit it with overwhelming force rather than an ambiguous battle of brains.”
If so, it’s too much to catch right now.
Gorgon was able to win because of special circumstances, but he is still not at the level of confidence that he has the upper hand against the Counts.
– Orpheus of the North. He’s literally a monster… … .
“Because just looking at it can annihilate existence.”
-Then, the place to go has been decided.
East.
Lavie was the count with the highest probability of attack.
– Coincidentally, there is a combat record.
True to his intuition, Gorgon had a big fight with Lavie in the past.
The relationship between the two was very bad, as they continued to fight after that.
“The tattooist.”
Each of the tattoos on Lavie’s body is a high-ranking magic.
-Skaya would like it if she saw it.
“I think you will be frightened.”
In general, the structure in which magic is activated is simple.
Drawing a magic circle with the structure of the magic you want to manifest with your magic power.
With it, the supernatural ability of magic can be manifested in this world.
“But I skipped that whole process.”
The tattoo itself is a magic gin.
In other words, Lavie can activate magic just by infusing magic into a specific part.
“Compared to the existing magic system, the advantages are huge.”
Of course, the shadowless window that only so-called geniuses can do is a basic installation.
Because it doesn’t draw a magic circle, the activation speed is incredibly fast.
Above all, if you think that you can activate all the tattoos on your body at the same time, this is a quadra casting and nabal
It can’t even compare to Igo.
– But there are downsides.
“overheating.”
In the first place, the crazy idea of invoking magic with the magic circle engraved on the body is something that demons can do.
If an ordinary human wizard were to imitate it just because it looked good, the affected part would explode as soon as the magic was activated.
“Even in La Vie, I’m not completely free in that part.”
-If you continue to consume magic, you will not be able to use the tattoo.
ji.
That was the only weakness Gorgon found in his fight with her.
The problem was that they had been fighting for over 10 years.
“A few more tattoos have been added since then.”
In other words, I do not know 100% of her power.
But compared to the others, it’s overwhelmingly doable.
-If you beat her, then it would be better to eat mana instead of memory.
“I guess so.”
As long as you have one of the Count’s memories, there is no need to take care of the other guys’ memories.
The memories of the other guys will be there anyway.
-But many of the memory images are locked. What are they?
“Probably a video related to the Archduke.”
The images are blacked out with a black screen.
Seo Jun-ho thought that Dae-gong was the main character of the videos that did not respond even when he pressed the play button.
“Don’t worry about the videos you can’t see right now, let’s start with what we can do right now.”
Head east and continue studying the battle between Gorgon and Lavie.
It has been added to the daily routine.
* * *
A man and a woman stood in the red wilderness.
Men choose.
In reality, no longer breathing
He waved his hand in a sane look.
– Flame shower.
Five million fires of hell that floated up rushed toward Lavie.
At the same time as she spread her arms, two tattoos glowed red.
Quaaaaaaaaaa!
A gigantic tsunami created out of thin air covered the hellfires intact.
“The dolphin tattoo on the left elbow
%
– That unique engraving on the right arm
The glyph is probably an enhancement magic.
Seo Jun-ho and Intuition played a video every break and studied her tattoos over and over again.
It was boring to watch the same video over and over again, but the power analysis now will decide the difference between victory and defeat.
“And I found out one more weakness of tattooists.”
– I think I know.
“Then shall we speak at the same time?”
– Count to three.
The moment your intuition counts all the numbers.
both said at the same time.
“First kill.”
– experience.
Different words came out, but Seo Jun-ho smiled.
because it means the same
“that’s right. A tattoo artist’s strengths are maximized when he fights an opponent he meets for the first time.”
Because the opponent couldn’t tell what kind of tattoos and what kind of magic they contained.
Conversely, from the moment you can’t kill the first encounter, the win rate rapidly increases.
It falls.
-Right now, we’ve already figured out more than 40 tattoo abilities.
”That’s probably why Lavie couldn’t easily touch the Gorgon.”
To put it bluntly, Gorgon was weaker than her.
However, since there was information about tattoos, he must have never thought of starting a fight easily.
The reason why the other two counts didn’t attack Gorgon must have been to keep Lavie in check.
– It’s interesting in many ways. But is the demon army the problem?
“It hurts.”
He had a sense of the strategy for Lavie to some extent, but the problem was the demon army.
Because there were so many disaster-level and liberation-level demons under her command.
“That’s why I can’t attack like Gorgon.”
-if?
“I have to call. Lavie to me.”
Seo Jun-ho is seen at the edge of the wilderness
stared at the city
It is the second largest city in the East, excluding the Earldom.
“City of fighters. Cologio.”
at the same time.
It was the city with the largest number of humans in the Demon Realm.
