381. Master of strategy (2)
Before I knew it, I rested my chin while looking at the structure of the ‘Dimensional Cradle’ that resembled a bright red jewel.
That huge jewel-like structure in front of me was one of the events organized by the Tower.
…And as you can see from that fact, I was aboard a warship headed for the ‘Dimensional Cradle’ that had appeared on Earth.
‘…Somehow, I arrived at the Dimensional Cradle faster than expected.’
I came here as soon as I stopped Pacheonryun’s depravity at the Seoul Hunter Association.
Lee Ha-yeon, who was with me at the scene, brought me here saying that she received a call from the Korean government saying that we had to leave in a hurry.
In fact, I came here as if I was dragged halfway there…
So I smiled at the structure of the ‘Dimension Cradle’ that came into view a few minutes ago.
‘…It’s a serious matter that could end the world, so I can’t waste time.’
No complaints whatsoever.
The events held under the leadership of Bondi Tower were all open to anyone from all over the world, but that was not the case this time.
A situation in which only a small number of people on Earth can enter the dimensional cradle.
With just a little bit of time, an unfortunate accident could have happened that one of the challengers who hadn’t even checked their background, let alone verified their skills, entered there.
If that happened, it would be the worst thing on Earth.
‘Anyway, the reason I came to Earth was to enter the dimensional cradle, so there’s nothing wrong with it.’
Not even that.
In fact, unlike anyone who climbed the tower could enter the event, the dimension cradle had many restrictions on entry.
Still, in its own way, the event of the giant tree labyrinth is ‘autonomous choice’, and it was not a serious event to the level of bringing about the destruction of the earth, but the dimension cradle was openly discussing ‘essential choice’ and even the continuation of the world.
‘Perhaps with this event, Tower wants to shake off all the challengers who will be weeded out one day…’
Of course, there is no need to be overly nervous.
‘Well, it has nothing to do with me.’
After all, nothing can happen on Earth while I am there.
And that was also the case with the competition with the other world in the ‘Dimensional Cradle’ event held by the tower.
At least if an ancient deity or a higher deity comparable to it did not appear, this side would be able to carry the competition with the other world sufficiently.
-…We are scheduled to arrive at the dimensional cradle in 10 minutes. Until then, challengers, please enter the ‘Dimensional Cradle’ as soon as you are ready. Please, please save the earth.
Before I knew it, I raised my head when I heard the sound of guidance echoing inside the warship heading to the ‘Dimensional Cradle’.
“True…”
Earth’s salvation?
There was a bit of a cheesy feeling to it, but it was also true, so it wasn’t particularly strange.
In fact, all the challengers aboard the fleet here are participating in the tower event, where the fate of the Earth depends.
It wasn’t that different here either.
“Somehow I feel strange.”
At that, I narrowed my eyes as I gazed at a red cube floating across the sea.
‘Come to think of it, I heard that the number of people who can enter the cradle of that dimension is fixed…’ It’s
nothing else
…
After coming here, I remembered one of the briefings I heard through the warship’s announcement sound.
Did I mention that there are already about a dozen people in the cradle because they urgently recruited challengers from all over the world to enter the cradle of dimension?
It crossed my mind that perhaps there might be an acquaintance like Catherine Bennett among the vanguard out there.
but for a while.
“Mr. Seongyun.”
As I was looking at the dimension cradle of the sea in front of me, I suddenly heard a clear voice.
I turned my head to check the source of the sound and saw a familiar face.
…There, Lee Ha-yeon, who seemed quite nervous, was talking to me while looking this way.
“I have to go. Now, most of the challengers say that they are ready to enter the dimensional cradle… I think we should enter before it’s too late.”
Even though she is now one of the veteran challengers who have climbed the Tower of Trials to the mid-20th floor, there was an indelible tension on her face.
Perhaps, since the tower was openly talking about the end of the world, she must have felt a great sense of crisis about it…
.
“All right.”
That would be too…
“Then let’s go in now.”
Just showing you what an overwhelming power is will make all those negative feelings go away.
***
Chow-!
?Strongly activates the authority ‘Steel Wings’.?
In an instant, I spread my wings made of steel and flew over the misty sea.
There was no need to use space movement-type abilities such as the black magic [Twirling Vortex].
After just flying like that for a few seconds, I was able to stand right in front of the red jewel.
“…”
But…
for some reason, there was no system message asking whether to enter the dimension cradle.
Originally, in the case of a tower or a giant tree labyrinth, there was a system message asking for entry, which is a strange situation.
However, this side had already heard some explanation from Lee Ha-yeon beforehand, so they were not taken aback.
‘…Did you say you could get in just by touching it?’
Red cube jewel.
As soon as I reached out my hand there, my eyes were stained black.
Just like when entering a stage on a new floor by a tower.
?Satisfying the entry conditions.?
?Entering the dimension cradle.?
?Balances the strength of the challenger Han Seong-yoon to some extent.?
?Temporarily seals most of all of the challenger Han Seong-yoon’s equipment and all stats.?
Even that alone no.
In the blink of an eye, the formless power that spreads throughout the black space tightened my body.
Presumably, it seemed that he was trying to restrict all abilities on this side, such as when entering a special stage in the tower, or when entering the Trial of the Secret Garden or the Giant Tree Labyrinth.
“It’s a seal.”
However…
?The myth of transcendence < absolute immutability > is activated.?
?From now on, challenger Han Seong-yoon’s actions will have the divinity effect of < denial of alteration >.?
?All negative changes about you realized by outside interference can be denied.”
“From now on, challenger Han Seong-yoon will receive the divine effect of < one and only >.” “
Outside phenomena can never imitate the power that belongs to you without permission.
”
And that’s only for a moment.
Kwakagagakgagak———!
?The god of transcendence and death expresses deep displeasure.
? ]
And the moment I activated the transcendence myth < Absolute Immutability >.
As it was, the restrictions of the system that had been extending from all over the black space froze.
And even that was not enough, and as the divine power added with the status of an ancient god resonated once, cracks broke out all over the black space.
[…]
[An error has occurred.]
[Challenger Han Seong-yoon is expelled because he does not meet the entry conditions of the dimension cradle&@^…]
Did the other side finally realize that I was outside the standard?
In the blink of an eye, the entire field of vision was colored with red system messages, and I felt that they were trying to kick me out of this place.
but for a while.
Following the transcendental myth < Absolute Unchanging >, I applied the power of the transcendental myth < Spirit Tuning > and roughly trampled on his will to be banished.
Crunchy-.
And with that, the struggle between them ended.
?···.?
?Challenger Han Seong-yoon will enter the Dimensional Cradle [E-01] soon.?
?Filled the initial entry limit [30/30] of the Dimensional Cradle [E-01].?
?Dimensional Cradle[E-01] E-01] for the time being, challengers from Earth will no longer be allowed to enter.
”
It was only then that I drew an arc on the corner of my mouth and smiled as if I liked it.
?Huh…
Damcheonwu, who saw that, trembled with the sword wave of the Blood Heaven Demon Sword, and then said as if he was dumbfounded.
?Yes… Now, even things that are under the control of the Tower can be controlled so easily. It’s amazing.
I shrugged my shoulders and replied lightly.
“Because I am now one of the Ancient Godheads. Shouldn’t we be doing this?”
There is nothing to be surprised about.
Now, it is not enough that I have entered the realm of an ancient deity, so I have the ability to differ from general myths such as the transcendental myth.
Then, it was only natural to resist the top penalty.
It is because he is trying to gradually overcome the stronghold of the tower by breaking away from the days when he was only a mere challenger and achieving a conceptual divinity on a cosmic level.
“Of course, it’s still not enough compared to other ancient deities…”
And I smiled at him and gave out greedy eyes.
“That won’t last too long.”
ancient deity.
Even if it is a tower, it is a word that refers to the level of transcendence, referring to the level of divinity that has been reborn as a cosmic being that cannot be treated carelessly.
I’m still barely stepping into the world of the ancient deities, but I’m sure it won’t last long.
Perhaps I will achieve a level that is second to none of the ancient gods.
“Because I still have a lot of ways to grow.”
no.
If I had to argue, I would have to say that I am looking at a new state beyond that.
Based on the Shinhwa < Possibility of Transcendence > and the growth ability of Necromancy, you can definitely surpass the level of an ancient god just by repeating battles.
‘It’s something I’m really looking forward to.’
I felt my heart beating pleasantly and enjoyed the anticipation.
either die or live.
It was certain that after repeating the only extreme battle, I would die a dog or get the desired result.
And the moment of decisive battle was getting closer and closer.
“…”
Originally, I was also to accumulate strength against the god of despair, fall, and madness.
That grotesque ancient deity must still be obsessed with killing me.
Even if I become an ancient deity, if I do not resolve the fight against the ancient deity, the earth will suffer endless threats.
I instinctively sensed it.
‘Isn’t it something to be anxious about?’
But…
somehow I didn’t particularly hate it.
The level of expectation to be rewarded after winning victory over one of the ancient deities, the god of despair, fall, and madness.
As I thought about what I would gain at the end of the fierce battle, I turned even a little bit of anxiety into a kind of anticipation.
‘In other words, it would mean that I would get a golden opportunity to slay the ancient deity.’
It was natural.
Because high risk always comes with high returns.
It was all the more so because it was a rule that I had carved into my mind from the time I became a challenger climbing the tower.
‘I’m sure it’ll be interesting to see what I can get out of it.’
Then there is no need to be anxious anywhere.
The moment I had anticipation for the showdown with the ancient deity.
System messages appeared in front of my eyes, and the scenery in my field of vision changed.
“I have entered the dimension cradle < Dark World [E-01] >.”
Before I knew it, I was able to arrive at a field surrounded by black light from a space dyed black.
Perhaps this was the stage of the dimensional cradle.
As soon as I noticed that, I read all the system messages.
?A challenge for the Dimensional Cradle < Dark World [E-01] > has occurred.?
?Challenge Description: Challengers from Earth cooperate to assassinate the Dark Emperor who stays in the Dimensional Cradle < Dark World [E-01] >. Do it.”
?Challenge Warning: Challengers from another dimension in the single-dimensional cradle < Dark World [E-01] > will protect the Dark Emperor.? ?Challenge Success Condition: Assassinate (0) the Dark Emperor
. /1)”
?Challenge Success Reward: All stats +10 ? Skill Proficiency Up Potion (B+) ? Random Item Box (B+)?
And.
“…”
The next moment.
“What.”
At that, I frowned and let out a drool as if I was dumbfounded.
“Assassination?”
Challenge.
It seems that this is a kind of victory condition given to the dimensional cradle < Dark World [E-01] >… If the
contents of the system messages that appeared in front of you are all real, it is truly something that cannot be ignored.
“It’s amazing…”
…Actually, you could say I’m the elite of the elite when it comes to assassination.
“Isn’t this just a level where you are told to clear it easily?”
It is also specializing in assassination without a single witness.
