Chapter 670: Star’s End (1)
Star’s End, the 9th layer of the labyrinth·
A layer that is also the final gateway to the 10th floor where the ‘Gate of the Abyss’ exists·
Monsters that only appear there have appeared·
Of course, hunt in the library on the first underground floor It was an entity I had seen before, and it wasn’t very difficult to kill…
“I defeated Braciaistello…”
The appearance of this guy suggests many things…
‘First of all… I guess this isn’t a labyrinth…’
Now we The place you are in is not the inside of the labyrinth. Not only
did the royal family close the labyrinth itself in the first place, but there are clear differences from the labyrinth to the extent that it was not immediately recognizable.
Of course, there are many strange parts to simply calling it ‘outside the castle walls’. Anyway
, ·
‘I should have noticed that there was a crater…’
It’s all confusing, but one thing is clear…
Although there are some parts that are different from the labyrinth, this place is modeled after the 9th floor ‘Star’s End’…
And that’s the fact Perhaps because everyone was aware of it…
“····”
“····”
As soon as the battle was over, a strange silence enveloped the group·
“Huh? “Why are you acting like that all of a sudden?”
The only one who was unaware of anything about the current situation was Rek Aures…
As for our team, it could be said that he was in a very similar position to Einar…
‘Why are all the warriors in this position?’
A question like that suddenly comes to mind, but it’s probably not something to think deeply about right away…
How much longer would the period of silence last with only Aures tilting his head
?
Heavy rain pouring down like a storm…
“This is…”
Lee Baek-ho, who was quietly looking down at the body of Brachiaistello, mutters one word…
“It could definitely be a bit of a dangerous situation…?”
It was a recitation that explained the situation we were currently in better than anything else…
Because the 9th floor is not a place where you can enter without preparation…
It’s like this
…
As if the stage lights were turned on, red light poured from above, covering a radius of about 50 meters…
It was the famous field effect of the 9th floor Star’s End…
“Huh…? “Is this it?”
Aures stands blankly as if he meets someone he knows while walking down the street.
“Why are you just sitting still when you know? Avoid!!”
The moment I shouted urgently, everyone came to their senses and moved out of range.
Of course, because speed is life, those who could afford it took wizards and priests.
Good mobility and being agile are two different things.
Even wizards can move quickly. In order to do this, you have to cast, and Jaina, Karui’s priest, also has to summon a mount…
wow…
In an emergency situation like this, you can’t afford to do that…
Tadat…
The moment you manage to get out of range with only the GM embarrassed by the sudden situation…
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
A red meteorite fell from the sky and exploded upon impacting the ground where we were…
And…
Huuuuuuuung-!!
Wind pressure strong enough to easily push the body of an adult man blows and dust is generated.
Of course, thanks to the driving rain, visibility quickly recovered, but…
“Is everyone okay?”
Wow, I’m really getting goosebumps all over my body…
“… From now on, I’ll have to stay alert when I wake up…” As
the dust settles and I look at the crater that formed at that point, my legs feel weak… That’s
because it was like that in the game…
‘Instant death…’
That meteorite has an instant death verdict…
If it hits within a 5m radius of the center, a game over screen will pop up in one hit no matter how you raised the character…
Well, if it hits from the outside, it only deals fixed damage… ···
Actually, this doesn’t mean much…
Anyway, the damage is enough to kill most tanks in one hit…
“Whoa…”
It was a moment to sympathize with those who were mesmerized by the powerful explosion…
I hurriedly shouted loudly. He shouted·
That’s because, if it’s the same as the meteorite falling, there’s a high possibility that the game will be the same after that as well·
“Everyone, come to your senses!”
Let out a shout and awaken everyone’s spirit, and at the same time,
flash!
A bolt of lightning strikes towards the center of the crater…
And…
‘As expected, this one comes out…’
Something like a white lump forming at the point where the lightning struck suddenly grows in size and takes shape…
Walking on two legs . A ‘humanoid’ monster with two arms and a neck that stands up along the spine…
Of course, that’s just the classification, but it’s far from a human…
Not only is there no human made of light, as electricity flows through its entire body
… -!
Size is the problem.
There are no humans that big in the first place, right?
A barbarian with [Giantization] wouldn’t know…
“Gigazeros…!”
This time, as expected, as soon as he saw the monster, the GM opened his mouth and started explaining, as is his habit.
However, it felt a little different from before.
“It is a monster that uses a very powerful lightning attribute and is incredibly agile, contrary to what it looks like!”
Unlike before, when he took his time explaining things, the GM finished the explanation quickly and quickly.
However, perhaps because of that, the most important explanation was omitted.
“It’s a level 2 monster, so be careful, everyone!” Like
the 2nd grade monster Gigazeroth and
Brachiaistello, it only appears in Star’s End and has the highest single combat power among the 2nd grade monsters.
I always called it the ‘Thunder Giant’.
That’s right, just looking at it, it’s better than Gigazeroth. It suits him well…
?Gigazeroth has casted [Great Discharge]…? He
immediately takes out his shield and runs forward, but as soon as he runs forward, an electric current is released like an explosion from the body of the thunder giant…
Chijijijijijik-!
There was no point in guarding…
Since it is impossible to block such ranged skills even with the Aegis Barrier…
I had no choice but to just get hit…
“The character casted [Scale of Greed]…”
One turn with [Giantization] Blue scales sprout on the grown body ·
‘Dragon Mode’ obtained through the essence of ‘Bellarios’ ·
‘Oh, I’m numb…’
My muscles twitched as the electric current emitted by the thunder giant hit my body…
? The character falls into a [paralysis] state·”
The damage received is exactly that·
“The paralysis state is lifted·”
Thanks to completing the anti-magic setting, the paralysis state is lifted in less than 2 seconds·
However, when I glanced behind me, ····
‘Lee Baek-ho hasn’t been released yet?’
You haven’t completed your CC defense mechanism yet?
‘So we haven’t even gotten to the 10th floor yet…’
Smiling as I knew Lee Baek-ho’s weakness, I dashed forward even more vigorously…
and…
“The character has entered the range of the [short-circuit zone]…”
I approached the guy. Immediately, the white bead in the air emits electric current and connects to my body·
?The character’s soul power continuously decreases?
?When soul power is consumed, fixed damage is taken in proportion to the consumption value·?
?Gigazer All damage from Os is applied to the lightning attribute·?
?The character falls into the [Conductor] state·?
?When receiving lightning damage, [Great Discharge] is cast·?
[Short-circuit zone]·
Melee characters with the lightning attribute If you raise it, it’s an aura-type passive skill that everyone wants
!
The Thunder Giant hits me with a huge fist…
“Defense successful…”
“The Aegis barrier absorbs all damage…”
I blocked it with a shield and absorbed the impact… but
white particles fell around me like buried water droplets splashing. Lightning strikes…
Well, isn’t it correct to say it’s flying?
Tsuzzzzzzzzt-!
Just as the eyes cannot follow the speed of light, when I came to my senses, the white lightning emitted from the particles had already connected…
Of course, the amount of damage itself was not large…
“The character suffered lightning damage…”
” [Great Discharge] is cast…”
Just as the current was released from the guy’s body earlier, light bursts from my body and thunderbolts shoot out in all directions…
And the effect is amplified by 300% compared to before…
Chijijijijik -!
But fortunately, the damage wasn’t too great as the distance from behind was obvious…
But…
‘I don’t think I’ll be able to ask for close support in this situation…’
I made the decision quickly and ignored whether my body was stinging or not, and took care of the guy’s body. He grabbed hold of his body and ran forward, increasing the distance between him and his colleagues.
I could feel my physical condition deteriorating in real time, but that was good. After all,
everyone has their own role, right?
If the tanker’s role is appropriate…
“Jaina Flyer has summoned [Healing Leech]…”
The healer’s role is to heal…
The
translucent leeches attached to the body continuously drain HP and MP. Injecting·
?Jaina Flyer has casted [Curse of Regeneration]·?
Casting a continuous healing skill that is somehow judged as a ‘curse’·
?Jaina Flyer has summoned a [Vessel of Life]·?
Also, the battlefield An altar-like structure is built in the center, and all the personnel are connected by a red thread·
‘Okay, this is enough for tanking…’
The rest is up to the dealers·
“···Huh?”
Just as I was thinking, an incident occurred…
***
What is the most important job in [Dungeon & Stone]? If
someone says that, I can confidently answer without a moment of hesitation.
The most important job is a tank.
Isn’t that also the case?
If the dealer’s skills are insufficient, they often end up not being able to catch the monster, but if the main tanker’s specifications are insufficient, it leads to complete annihilation.
In fact, I have always performed missions as a tank, so I continued dangerous explorations, but until now, my colleagues I was able to keep them safe…
Except for a few times… Anyway
…
I value the importance of tanks much more than wizard priests…
But…
‘Damn new map…’
I guess it’s some kind of new field. Outside the visible castle walls…
And especially in this place where I came across an unidentified dimensional monument… My common sense was useless…
That’s right… ”
… Huh?”
When I was playing the role of a tank and the dealers were steadily dealing damage… Suddenly
, the Thunder Giant began to show abnormal symptoms…
It was none other than suddenly ignoring me and starting to rush towards the dealers behind…
Flash-!
As he had a Blink-type mobility device, it was impossible to stop him in the middle.
“Ugh! Ahh···!”
Unfortunately, the first target of the sudden action was the GM.
Seeing the guy who appeared right in front of him, the GM hastily turned on the mana shield, but…
Kwajijik-!
As a level 2 monster, it easily destroyed the hastily made mana shield and made a clean hit.
However, it was worth it to reduce the impact.
Otherwise, I could have died in one hit.
“Nimiral! Havelion! how is it? “Are you alive?”
“I am alive and well!”
“Then save me quickly! “If that bastard falls, even a magic circle won’t be able to fix it!!”
Before finding a way to escape from this place, I wonder what use the magic circle is… In response
to Lee Baek-ho’s shouting, Jaina began intensive treatment on the GM…
And…
“Behel—raaaaaa!!! ”
I followed him late and was about to mark him again when a
flash came!
Once again, the guy uses his teleportation skill and disappears before my eyes.
‘No, what on earth is this…’
The same sudden action occurred not once, but twice.
There was no point in denying it anymore.
‘The threat value doesn’t work. ···?’
The ‘threat value’ raised by [Giantization] ·
And the unconditional aggro effect of ‘Aegis Barrier’ that can be activated based on that threat value ·
The guy was ignoring these two · It was
as if it was not a monster judgment but a ‘human’ ‘
Hold on tight!’
“Aaaah!”
In the second surprise attack, fortunately, the archer reacted and caught the healer safely.
But even so, the situation was not good.
Chijijijijijik-!!
It’s not a bland monster, and it’s a level 2 monster…
If tanking isn’t done properly, there are bound to be victims…
‘What should I do with this?’
It was really a time when I felt such a sense of helplessness against a monster for the first time in a long time and my head was spinning…
“… Nimiral…”
Lee Baek-ho clicked his tongue as he looked at the thunder giant…
It would be a bit nuanced to say that he was swearing because he was genuinely frustrated with the situation. It was strange.
Should I say it felt like something was regretful?
“I really didn’t want to show this…”
… What is it?
As if he had a way to overcome this situation…
“Everyone run as far away as possible…”
Lee Baek-ho soon chanted and stretched out his hand forward…
And…
crackling –
the dark sphere formed in front of his hand rotated and the surrounding air I’m starting to get sucked in…
‘No, wait a minute…’
Where have I seen this before?
“Run away quickly! If you get caught up, the Baron won’t be okay!”
Aures soon shouted urgently and started running in the opposite direction of Baekho Lee.
I quickly came to my senses and followed behind him.
And how many seconds passed?
“Enough charging.”
With Baekho Lee’s short muttering,
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
The dark sphere exploded and a black flash covered the entire world.
?Gigazeroth has been defeated +EXP 8? My vision became dark as if I had gone blind, but I had no doubt that the battle with the thunder giant was over.
That’s right .
Because I know…
What the identity of this skill I just saw is…
“The disappearance of the stars…”
It is the active skill of the Dark Lord Deadred and the destructive power of [Dungeon & Stone] that is unrivaled by any essence. Strongest attack skill·
‘Crazy…’
This bastard had this skill…?
