– Completed the hidden quest, ‘The Exiled Shaman’.
– Additional points are awarded for the trial ‘The Coming Sandstorm’.
The enthusiasm for Flamberge was enormous.
Not only had the sorcerer been reduced to ashes and disappeared between the grains of sand, but the statue that had given him such great power had also melted and crumbled.
It seemed to be due to the synergy of the internal energy accumulated through Jahashin Gong and the heat of the desert.
As the raging flames died down, Yasha appeared, covered in sand as if he had been rushing out of the room.
“It was a tremendous attack. I knew he was strong, but I didn’t think it was this bad.”
“Thank goodness I dodged it. I wanted to kill the statue before it regained its strength.”
“I understand. Even if I had been caught in the attack, I wouldn’t have blamed you.”
“I would rather not do that.”
The corpse of the sorcerer was no longer there, having been scattered along with the sand. So their gazes naturally turned to the spot where the statue had been.
The heat was so hot that the metal that made up the statue was still bubbling and boiling.
‘Just in case… … .’
Seun stretched out his hand and used the power of gluttony.
First, head towards where the sorcerer was.
Even though the shape didn’t even remain due to the intense heat, I thought that maybe it was possible.
– Predated on ‘Jevus Seru’.
– Absorbs nutrients and increases intelligence by 3.
A rustling sound was heard from all directions.
Although it is invisible to the eye, it appears that countless teeth are searching for and eating the scattered ashes of the sorcerer.
More importantly, intelligence 3.
It was a value that could not possibly be considered as the ability absorption of a boss monster.
At this point, I thought it was just a monster that I would come across on the street.
then.
‘That’s what I’m talking about.’
Se-un turned his gaze towards the melted statue.
Even though it was flowing like that, it didn’t seep under the sand or anything.
It seemed as if the sight of it seething with heat was trying to stay above ground.
I’m not sure, but you never know unless you try.
Seun raised his arm and used the power of gluttony towards the statue.
– Preying on the ‘Swallowed Statue’… … .
Fired, fired!
As the message continued, the text stopped and crackled as if an error had occurred.
Along with that, the glutton’s molars were unable to swallow the liquid and bounced out.
-The constellation, ‘The Hungry Prince’, is disgusted by unpleasant smells.
– The constellation, ‘The Hungry Prince’, starts to gag, feeling like he’s going to throw up just by touching it for a moment.
-The constellation, the ‘hungry prince’, cannot give up, but closes his eyes, blocks his nose, and opens his mouth wide.
Even though it bounced off once, the glutton’s molars did not give up.
Bigger, sharper teeth grew and bit the statue once again.
And then, as it bounced off, this time a mouth as big as a house opened and swallowed the statue along with a pile of sand.
however…….
Woof-
-The constellation, ‘The Hungry Prince’, is frustrated and says he can’t swallow this.
The molars of gluttony were ultimately unable to swallow the statue.
The mouth that had spat out the statue, oozing a black liquid that resembled saliva, disappeared with a regretful lick of its lips.
‘Beelzebub is a statue that cannot be eaten.’
Is it because the opponent isn’t a monster?
I thought it would be possible for Beelzebub, who even chewed and swallowed the scorpion he saw in the cave of crystal, to do so.
Even if it was because the opponent had great strength, wasn’t Beelzebub a being that even chewed up and swallowed the status of Pan, the god of Olympus?
The more I thought about it, the more my doubts about the statue grew.
‘No matter how you look at it, it looks like an outerwear.’
The shape of a flowing statue, or the spell of a sorcerer calling out to the absolute being of the universe.
It certainly couldn’t be, but all the information was heading towards the outer.
Did Se-Woon’s regression change the future? Or was it an element that originally existed in the ordeal that Se-Woon in his previous life was unable to discover until the end?
The reason was unknown.
Se-Woon felt regretful and approached the statue that had already lost its shape.
-The constellation, ‘The Hungry Prince’, is greatly frustrated, saying that he did not know that his stomach was this weak.
-The constellation, ‘The Crow with its Head Down’, never ceases its vigilance against the statue.
Even though a considerable amount of time had passed, the melted statue continued to bubble.
At this point, it didn’t seem like it was boiling due to the heat.
The moment Seun reaches out his hand to find out even a little more information.
-The constellation warns you to get away immediately, as the ‘Snake Surrounding Time’ is dangerous!
Oh my!
The melted liquid wriggled as if it were alive and grabbed Seun’s wrist.
There was advice from Leviathan, but there was no time to check it.
I desperately tried to distance myself, but by then my wrist was already completely caught by the liquid.
“Let me help you!”
Ting!
“Wh, what!”
Yasha, who was watching from the side, swung his sword.
The sword was surrounded by sharp black energy, and the swordsmanship looked neat, but the sound it made was as bad as hitting a rock with chopsticks.
The writhing liquid instantly turned solid and deflected her sword.
– The power of ‘Dark Flare’ is strengthened according to the Black Tower’s magic.
If the sword doesn’t work, it’s magic.
Seun spun the circle tightly, creating black flames.
Since I melted it with flames when it was a statue, I thought that flames might still work now.
As the flames blazed, the liquid reacted by writhing as if startled, but that was only for a moment, and the statue hardened back into a solid form and no longer reacted to the heat of the flames.
It seemed as if he had adapted to the attack he had experienced once.
Swish.
An unknown force flowed through my wrist, which was caught in the liquid. No, it was a force I had already felt once.
An unknown power felt through the power of jealousy.
It was the same power that the sorcerer used.
When I used the power of jealousy, it was awkward at first, but soon I felt a surge of strength. But didn’t they say that even the best medicine becomes poisonous if taken in excess?
Because of the immense power that was on a different level from what was absorbed through authority, I felt like my arms were burning from the wrist up.
I felt excruciating pain and momentarily lost consciousness.
-The constellation, the ‘hungry prince’ is at a loss.
-The constellation, ‘The Crow with its Head Down’, takes out the ‘Sickle of Death’ and tries to cut down the statue.
Bang!
Mamon opened his warehouse through Seun.
A pitch-black scythe rose into the air and spun in a circle, attempting to cut through the liquid.
As the name suggests, it is a weapon used by the god of death. It is a scythe known for its cutting power that goes beyond the physical level and even cuts off the soul.
The scythe bounced off to the other side with a clanking sound.
-The constellation, ‘The Serpent Surrounding Time’ manifests its power.
– The gaze of the time begins to gaze at the ‘swallowed statue’.
-The ‘Swallowed Statue’ rejects the gaze of envy!
Leviathan tried his best, but even that was too much.
A statue that is immune to the power of the constellations.
There was no need to worry any more.
I don’t know why, but this statue is definitely related to the Outer.
But even after figuring it out, nothing changed.
The excruciating pain had already taken over my head, making rational judgments impossible.
The internal energy of the Danjeon and the mana of the circle tried to block the external force, but it could not last even a few seconds and collapsed miserably.
In the midst of extreme pain, there is only one answer that comes to mind.
‘I have to cut off his arm!’
The wrist that was captured by the statue. No, the entire right arm that has already been invaded by an unknown force must be cut off.
Otherwise, an unknown force will consume Seun’s entire body.
Just like the creatures wearing outerwear that we saw before the regression.
Se-Woon bit his lip hard to forget the pain in his right arm.
As the blood vessel burst and red blood flowed out, I felt like I came to my senses for a moment.
Crunch.
He caught the Durandal that had fallen to the floor due to the pain with his left hand.
I took a deep breath, closed my eyes tightly, and was about to swing my sword to cut it off completely.
Hwaaaat!
In that moment, a red light appeared on the back of my right hand.
It didn’t stop at light, but began to flicker like a flame, burning the unknown power that had been eating away at his right arm.
The stigmata of the Satyr. Now transformed into Seun’s unique form, the stigmata were driving out an unknown power.
No, it was a bit ambiguous to say that it was driven out.
Because the flames were cruelly biting and devouring rather than burning the unknown power.
Gulp!
As if sensing a sense of crisis, the liquid that was holding my wrist poured out with even greater force.
However, the more this happened, the stronger the flames coming out of the stigmata became.
It was like pouring oil into a blazing fire.
-The stigmata absorb an unknown force of unknown identity and become stronger.
-The name of the Blood Wolf is strengthened by absorbing unknown power.
A black aura mixed into the blood-red light of the stigmata.
Only then did the liquid, realizing that it was not working, fall from Seun’s wrist in a hurry. However, the stigmata’s flame did not decrease in size.
Instead, a single spark fell from his wrist and began to burn the entire statue.
-The stigmata react to the tale of the Blood Wolf Legend.
-The third ability of the stigmata, ‘@#!%’, is awakened.
-With a power so great that its owner cannot handle it, the stigmata seals a third ability within itself.
What on earth happened?
Assuming that that is indeed the outer, the bastard was clearly trying to absorb Seun.
Before the regression, not a single player among the creatures that were hit in this manner was able to successfully resist erosion.
Even those arrogant constellations were helplessly encroached upon by the outer.
Rather than simply resisting that force, he absorbed it.
Is it the effect of regression? Or is it thanks to the power of Se-un’s stigmata?
The detailed reason was unknown.
What is clear is that the stigmata saved his life.
Kukuku-
As the statue writhed in pain, the barrier surrounding it also lost its strength and disappeared.
As the statue burned away without a trace, the sandstorm that had been blocked by the barrier swept in again.
A leopard that had been hiding in a corner approached Seun and flicked its tongue.
“Are you okay? What on earth happened?”
“……well.”
I really couldn’t figure it out.
It didn’t seem like thinking about it would lead to an answer.
As I gazed at the sacred traces dyed crimson with a bewildered expression, I sensed a huge number of presences beyond the sandstorm.
“… …Let’s go.”
“yes?”
“Monsters are coming. We must run to the wall quickly.”
“No way… … . Monsters always appear with sandstorms on the darkest night.”
“Then what is that?”
“Kiyaaaa!”
In response to Se-un’s question, Yasha, who had only just sensed the presence of the monster, turned around.
Through the thick sand and dust, hundreds and thousands of shadows were cast. The shadows were quickly approaching us with a terrible roar.
Seun’s mana and internal energy were completely depleted from resisting the erosion. No matter how much Seun was there, he couldn’t fight them right now.
No, even if I had full mana and energy, it would be impossible to fight that many monsters alone in such a wide space.
Right now, the wisest course of action was to reach the walls as quickly as possible and seek help from the Diablo clan and its soldiers.
“Kwang!”
The two sand leopards noticed Seun’s will and turned their backs.
As soon as Seun and Yasha got on, the leopards immediately kicked up the sand and ran towards the wall.
– Completing the hidden quest, ‘The Exiled Shaman’, will immediately start the 10th floor trial, The Coming Sandstorm.
-The difficulty of the trials increases further as you succeed in the hidden quest.
-Monsters become more violent and numerous.
-New boss monsters are added.
-Slay the banished sorcerer and protect the sandstorm barrier to greatly increase the rewards for the trials.
The 10th floor trials began much earlier than expected.
