112. Episode 112
Immediately after the trials on the 6th floor began, Yu Seo-ah was the first to move to find her colleagues.
‘If it’s that hill, I’ll be able to look around.’
The highest hill in the vicinity.
Finding company was a priority for her rather than finding an oasis, so she headed straight for the hill.
And soon after, the monsters began to attack.
Sssssssss!
Dozens of fins exposed above the sand.
The sight was very similar to a pack of sharks hunting prey in the sea.
-Player Yushua uses ‘Tarantula’s Second Leg’.
Crunch!
Two desert sharks jumping at the same time.
Although it was a threatening attack, Yu Seo Ah used her unique sharp dual swordsmanship to dodge the attack and inflict long wounds on the enemies.
Although she was unable to inflict a fatal blow, her sword was imbued with the poison she received from Baal, so it was only a matter of time before she died.
-The constellation ‘The Crowned Spider’ advises you to pay attention to your legs, as your movements are too clumsy.
‘But, the sand… …!’
In fact, Yushua’s fighting power was the best among players on the same level.
As such, even the Desert Shark is no match for her.
But why do we have to confront monsters? It’s because of the terrain.
To wield the dual swords, you need a unique and flashy technique, but here, there was no solid ground to properly stand on.
Wherever I moved, my feet would sink deep into the sand. So it was difficult to use my magic, and the power of my dual swordsmanship was greatly reduced.
‘I have to try that power.’
Yu Seo-ah thought about her potential.
She still hadn’t fully figured out how to harness her potential, but as time went on, she was only losing stamina.
The Desert Sharks were also engaged in a tedious war of nerves to drain her of stamina.
However, that doesn’t mean they were just confronting each other.
The moment when she focuses and her weaknesses are revealed in order to unleash her potential.
Phew!
“Kwaaah!”
A desert shark leapt after her.
I drew my sword without even having time to panic, but another desert shark was baring its teeth at my feet.
A desperate situation caused by a moment of carelessness.
The other desert sharks also realized that this was their chance and jumped at the same time.
And at that moment.
-The third technique of the Blood Wolf Sword Technique, Blood Wolf Attack, is strengthened through internal energy.
-The heat of martial arts is added according to the secret of Jahashin Gong.
A wolf, burning hot like flame, swept around her.
The Desert Sharks, who had been gaping with confidence in victory, suddenly fell onto the hot sand, covered in blood.
An all too familiar attack.
Yu Seo-ah was able to immediately identify the identity of the colleague who had protected her.
“Mr. Seun!”
* * *
“I never thought Se-un would be my colleague.”
“Yeah. Should we call this a coincidence?”
Se-Woon turned the sword around and put it back in its sheath, looking at Yu Seo-Ah.
The Diablo Clan alone has about thirty members.
Among them, a companion is randomly selected, and it just so happens to be Yoo Seo-ah.
I don’t know if I should call this lucky or bad.
That makes sense.
‘If it were Yoo Seo-ah, she would have overcome the ordeal even without my help.’
Her power was so strong that Seun didn’t need to step forward.
I just helped you out just in case, but even if I had left you alone, you wouldn’t have been seriously hurt.
“Where are you hurt?”
“It’s okay. Seun came just when it was dangerous.”
“What happened? There were a lot of them, but they weren’t that strong.”
“that is…….”
Yu Seo-ah looked down.
Even though she was just standing still, her feet were half buried in the sand.
As soon as he saw it, Se-un could understand why she had been having a hard time.
“It seems like the law was difficult.”
“Yes. I was panicking because my feet kept slipping out… … .”
-The constellation, ‘The Crowned Spider’, shakes his head, saying that it is still lacking in many ways.
Well, that’s to be expected.
In the first place, how often do Koreans get to step into the desert?
Se-un said that he was used to it due to his experience before returning, but Yu-seo-ah probably doesn’t even know how to walk properly on sand.
‘Because it was something I had to experience anyway.’
But isn’t it said that a crisis is always an opportunity?
Se-Woon, who thought that moving in the desert would be good training for Yu-Se-A, taught her how to step in the desert.
It was a way of walking that involved making the area of the feet as wide as possible so that the feet would not sink.
Seun added a new order there.
“From now on, keep putting your internal energy into your legs.”
“Even though it’s not a combat situation?”
“Just walking without sinking into the sand while building up your internal energy will be enough training.”
-The constellation, ‘The Crowned Spider’ nods, saying that it is a plausible training method.
“But if your internal energy drops, then the battle… … .”
“Don’t worry. I’ll take care of the fighting.”
“……all right.”
Maintaining internal energy consistently is extremely difficult. However, it is something that any player who handles internal energy must learn.
This was an opportunity to familiarize him with not only the law but also internal energy.
No matter what anyone says, she was the leader of the Diablo clan.
Leading people requires a certain amount of power.
“Then, shall we go?”
“yes!”
* * *
At that moment, as soon as they challenged the 6th floor trial, there was a party that joined faster than anyone else and was moving faster than anyone else.
as soon as.
“Eww!”
“Oh, why is it that you’re getting caught up in this again!”
“That’s what I’m supposed to say!”
It was Han Areum and Park Jeongpil.
Could it be a trick of the system? The two of them were on the same team again after the trials on the 3rd, 4th, and 5th floors.
And behind the two, dozens of monsters were running fiercely.
The reason the two were able to join forces in the first place was because Park Jeong-pil ran away with those monsters and ran into Han Areum.
Because of that, Han Areum ended up running away with Park Jeongpil.
“Oh, please do something!”
“What am I supposed to do with these guys who aren’t even my brothers! Gosh, if only I had a pair of red wolves!”
Unfortunately, the red wolf that Se-woon had given as a gift was not recognized as Park Jeong-pil’s property, so he could not bring it to the trial.
If they had run away this far, they might have been let go, but the monsters were chasing after them as if they would follow them to the ends of hell.
“Ah, I don’t know! I’ll run away alone!”
“Eww, throw it away! No! Let’s die together!”
“Oh really!”
Han Areum thought that both of them would suffer if things continued this way, so she tried to break up with Park Jeongpil, but Park Jeongpil stuck with Han Areum until the end.
I was annoyed and thought, “What kind of people are these?” But now was not the time to be annoyed.
‘There must be a way… … .’
Park Jeong-pil may look like that, but he has great stamina.
On the other hand, Hanareum wasn’t confident in her endurance. So she had to think of a way to deal with those monsters before her stamina ran out.
‘It would be impossible to use siege weapons here.’
Even if we had taken out siege weapons, there was no way we could properly target the enemy in the current situation.
One day, she thought she wanted to throw small bullets like she had seen in the comics, inflating her size and wiping out enemies, but her ability was limited by ‘loss of mobility’.
No matter how hard you throw something and return it to its original size, it will lose its mobility and just fall back to its original place.
So there’s no way the enemy would just sit back and take it…
‘ah!’
She was agonizing over the decision when a good idea occurred to her and she searched through her pockets.
In the hand he took out of his pocket he was holding a cartridge made for use as a siege weapon.
Loss of mobility makes it impossible to hit enemies.
But what if the enemy runs towards you and bumps into you?
Kookookook!
“Huh?”
As soon as she threw the bullet, it returned to its original gigantic size.
Five bullets clumsily blocked the two’s path.
Normally, the enemy would not take such an attack quietly, but this time it was different.
For some reason, the monsters’ eyes turned towards Park Jeong-pil.
Just like the ogre we encountered on the 5th floor, it becomes difficult to make rational decisions.
As she planned, the monsters were confused and couldn’t control their speed… … .
bang!
Kwakwang!
He died on the spot after being hit in the head by a 2m diameter bullet made of rock.
Those that were fast were crushed to death under the growing bullets.
-The constellation ‘Black Bird’ praises the contractor for his excellent use.
Amazing versatility.
It was a method I would never have realized if I hadn’t been with Park Jeong-pil.
“Oh, why do I have to take charge of the attack!”
“Hyungniiim!”
Since she had never wanted this situation to begin with, it was inevitable that she would feel aggrieved instead of proud.
* * *
“are you okay?”
“… … Not yet. This is harder than I thought.”
“Everything is difficult at the beginning. Perhaps, once you get used to it, it will become as natural as breathing.”
Yu Seo-ah was a thorough hard worker.
From the moment he accepted Seun’s training, he kept training his legs without losing any energy, even though he was sweating profusely.
Although it may not seem like much of a difference on the outside, it was truly remarkable.
It’s easier said than done to maintain your inner strength while walking, it was like teaching a baby who had just learned how to crawl how to walk.
“I’m just walking, but it’s hot.”
“Because it’s a desert.”
“Se-un, you don’t look that hot. You’re barely sweating.”
Is that so? Only then did Se-woon realize that he barely felt the heat.
It wasn’t with the help of equipment or the use of magic.
Se-Woon, who had been feeling doubtful, soon felt a hot burning sensation in his stomach and was able to understand the reason.
‘It was because of the yang energy.’
Before challenging the ordeal, he practiced ‘Jahashin Gong’ to build up his internal energy at his residence. It seemed that his body had become accustomed to the hot air due to the yang energy he had accumulated at that time.
Rather, it feels like my internal energy has become more active than usual because it is hot.
‘Come to think of it, when I used the Blood Rang Sword Technique earlier, I also used the Jaha Shin Gong naturally.’
Perhaps due to the nature of yang energy, it seems to exert greater power in hot terrain.
Thinking about it that way, I suddenly felt sorry for Yoo Seo-ah.
Unlike Se-un, she had to endure not only the training method but also the heat.
If things continued like this, the heat could actually hinder his training, so Seun prepared a new magic.
-The Treasure Trove of Greed has been opened.
[Temperature]
– Temperature control magic developed through joint research between the Fire Tower and the Water Tower at the Colorless Tower.
Saaaa-
As the magic manifested, an eerie cold air appeared around Yusua.
Templating.
It seemed like a simple magic that only controlled the temperature, but it was a difficult magic that combined the operation of the fire tower and the water tower.
It must be at least 5 circles to be usable.
The good news is that if you control the range well, the amount of mana used isn’t that much.
If she used it only for herself, it seemed like it would be enough to last her until she crossed the desert.
“Wow! How did you do that? It’s so cool!”
“It’s magic. I’ll keep spreading it out as you go, so just focus on your legs.”
“Are you sure you’ve been using this all this time by yourself?”
“No, me too just now… … .”
“Haha, just kidding. Just kidding.”
Perhaps because the heat had disappeared, her speech had become much lighter.
Se-Woon scratched his cheek awkwardly, wondering if he was reacting too seriously for no reason.
“By the way, how do you know where to go?”
“The sun rises in the east, right? So you just have to move in the opposite direction that the sun moves.”
“Oh, that’s right. It’s obvious, but I didn’t think about it.”
“You just need to focus on your training. If you had focused on the trials, you would have figured it out right away.”
“Well, but isn’t the direction a little different?”
She was right.
In reality, Se-un was not heading completely west, but in a slightly different direction.
If things continue like this, we will be late in arriving at our destination.
But, of course, Seun also knew that fact.
Seun’s goal is to find hidden pieces on each floor.
Even now.
“There’s a place to see before you get to the oasis.”
Before returning, a hidden piece that was discovered by chance. No, rather than a hidden piece, it would be more appropriate to call it a trap.
We were moving towards the ant hell.
