Chapter 705

Episode 705 Labyrinth ‘Temple of Ramses’ (4)

A half-human, half-beast with a cold yet beautiful appearance appeared.

“Why me?”

This is the monster that terrified countless warriors in Greek mythology.

It was ‘Medusa’.

Medusa, whose tail was flapping, tilted her head at the sudden external summons.

Clearly, the other person is the person who captured him alive and sold him to a man named Rick Hennessy. However, it was absurd to suddenly find myself again after a considerable amount of time had passed.

“how have you been doing?”

Jinhyuk bit his lower lip with a complicated expression.

Then he added one word.

“I’ve been wrong…”

A tone dripping with regret and regret.

It’s like a conversation with an ex-lover.

“…?”

Medusa looked like she was talking nonsense.

Either way, Jinhyuk continued.

“Actually, I felt a lot of pain after sending you to Uncle Rick like that. “We had a lot of memories between us, right?”

“What kind of bullshit is that? “All I remember is that you and I fought to the death, and then you cowardly trapped me using that barrier.”

“Don’t pick on every little thing. Let’s only talk about good memories. “Anyway, I want to give you my freedom once again to correct the mistakes I made back then, but before that, I want you to help me just this once.”

Medusa’s resting place was lined with stone statues.

I will bring back the days when I freely collected collections.

“…freedom.”

Like Pendariel and Martial Spirit, Medusa was also bound to be sensitive to that word.

Especially if you’ve been trapped in Rick’s treasure trove for a long time.

“What do you want to do? “We don’t have time, so we have to decide quickly.”

“I will tell you why the mighty warriors of Greece trembled before this body.”

[Medusa accepts the ‘brand of flame’.]

Chiiik!

A bright red brand engraved on the skin.

‘Good.’

The corners of Jinhyuk’s mouth turned up.

The fraudulent ability to turn an object into stone by simply looking at it was not only too useful, but also fraudulent.

More than anything. It was encouraging that since he had been branded and had become a divine beast of this side, he could upgrade his abilities as much as he wanted.

Jinhyeok immediately called upon his abilities from the infinite library.

[The unique ability ‘Mentra Taming’ is activated!]

[Consumes 5 top-grade magic stones.]

[Medusa’s basic ability increases by 200%!]

Cuckoo!

Medusa’s body overflowed with new magical power.

[Medusa activates her unique ability, ‘Petrification’s Magical Eyes’!]

Blah blah blah!

The bodies of the insects that came into view began to turn into stone.

“Keeeeee!”

“Keeh…!”

Desert bugs with high physical resistance but low magic resistance were helpless against the unfamiliar petrification ability.

furthermore.

“What is it?”

“My body… turns to stone. Kwaaaa!”

The curse of petrification is not limited to bugs, but is also devouring the players of Dreadlore.

The attack team, which was overwhelmed by insects alone, suffered serious damage due to Medusa that suddenly appeared from the side.

Due to Medusa’s tendency to attack at random without distinguishing between enemies and enemies, appeasement did not work.

“What on earth are you doing! “I’m not saying we should all die together!”

Dreadlore’s main healer, ‘Emily’, screamed in agony.

“Who tried to kill us first?”

Jinhyuk shrugged his shoulders.

Since when were we colleagues? There is no need to stab yourself in the back.

Because they had made an implicit promise to bite each other whenever they saw an opportunity.

While the petrification was in progress, a gust of wind blew through the defenseless players.

“Sylphid. “Collect everything without fail.”

“huh! master!”

Silphid flew around and snatched some of the items the players were wearing.

The items these kids own are obvious.

It is highly unlikely that they have any holy relics that can help them fight against the primordial gods or the higher gods.

However, there were some who had items needed for some strengthening or later in the war against Eden.

[You have acquired the ‘Fragment Piece of Aldebaran’.]

[You have acquired the ‘Unknown Trumpet’.]

[You have acquired the restoration set of ‘Andiana Johnson’!]

Jinhyeok places the newly acquired items in a corner of the subspace inventory. It was stored well.

Arrangements for work in the distant future.

It will be after a long time that these things begin to shine.

‘Still, they are absolutely necessary. Hmm. Anyway, what I got from this event was more than I expected.’

I felt a little sad.

Still, it’s destined to become a statue anyway, so having something like this would be useless.

‘Well, it wouldn’t be a bad idea for some people to lift the curse of petrification later and ask for a bigger price.’

Whether you turn to stone or come back to life.

All that awaits those here is hell.

“If you turn us all into enemies, it will be difficult for you to be safe.”

Emily pointed to the bugs and their leader, Queen Sharake.

“Koooooo!”

At the sound of Sharake’s loud roar, the petrification that had been occurring on the insects began to loosen. No matter how deceptive Medusa’s abilities were, they were not enough to overcome much higher level named monsters.

“You don’t have to worry about that either.”

Jinhyuk’s eyes turned to the two subordinates next to him.

Sreung….

Clap!

Wolyoung and T-Bone, each with their weapons drawn, stood to the left and right of Jinhyuk.

“From now on, we are going to chase after this guy named Mayer and secure the book. “Can I leave it to you?”

“of course.”

“Rattle!” It’s a long-awaited fight, but all it takes is catching something like the Bug Queen. It’s a little disappointing. master.”

“Ha ha ha ha ha. Are you crazy! Even if you all attack, it won’t be enough. I just trust the two of you… Huh? “Huh?”

As Emily spoke, her eyes became distorted in shock.

[Major of the Shadows. ‘Wolyeong’ releases his magic power!]

[Grand Death Knight ‘T-Bone’ releases his magic power!]

Kwakwakwakwakwakwakwa!

An unimaginable storm swept over the entire nest.

“Kiiiii…?”

“Crick, creak…!?”

The bugs that were eating the players stopped moving.

Go, go, go!

This is because even his unique belligerence disappeared in an instant due to the overwhelming fear that eroded his instincts.

“….”

Sharake also unconsciously increased the distance by more than ten meters due to the momentum of Wolyoung and T-Bone.

“Please don’t worry.”

“Rattle. “I will organize it right away and be waiting for you.”

Wolyoung and T-Bone bowed to Jinhyuk.

***

Same time.

“This is the worst.”

“Whew. “I don’t know what’s going on…”

Officials from the World Awakened Association, which hosts the competition, were also on high alert.

A stage created with great care and a virtual space realized through dozens of simulations. It was only a few hours ago that I became convinced that I would not tolerate even an inch of variation.

but.

Something happened that destroyed everyone’s confidence in one fell swoop.

Players who entered the Great Temple of Ramses continue to disappear as if swallowed by a black hole.

Large guilds sensed something unusual and sent a late contingent, but they too were unable to return for several hours.

Viewers’ complaints and concerns have already exploded a long time ago.

The association was put in a position where it had to wage an all-out effort to find out the truth about this disaster and come up with countermeasures.

While the advance forces of several large guilds disappeared from the Great Temple of Ramses, a rescue team was hastily formed to rescue them.

One of them was Cheon Yu-seong, who was acting alone.

At first, I tried to suppress it with a threat disguised as a favor… but…

‘…what are these people like?’

That was a miscalculation.

Parts…!

A sword that burns so hard that it hurts your eyes.

No, this was not sword power or anything like that, it was sword strength that left no room for doubt.

Isn’t that also a level of purity that has never been seen before?

Coo!

dump.

The association’s employees who had gone to ask for a favor all fell to the floor.

Among them, there was also a ranker reaching AAA level.

“Why should I go somewhere like that? “I have things to do.”

The tip of Cheon Yu-seong’s sword extended forward.

There was a determination not to tolerate even the slightest compromise.

“You can become a hero who saves countless people. And of course, the association will promise huge amounts of money and compensation. “No, if you help me, I can give you a blank check.”

The association employee continued speaking in confusion.

This is a time when even one hand is missing. Cheon Yu-seong, who could easily suppress even rankers, was a target that must be captured.

No matter what conditions are presented.

“be not interested in.”

Cheon Yu-seong cut off even the last suggestion with a single sword, then turned around and continued walking.

“ha.”

The association’s staff lowered their heads in response to such a resolute response.

Characters presumed to be colleagues were also found to be in the Great Temple, but given that they were going separately after the main event started, there would be no sense of camaraderie.

Still, just in case, I would like to ask you one last question….

“Including Jinhyeok Kang, who is waiting for Cheon Yoo-seong’s help….”

Standing tall.

Cheon Yu-seong’s steps stopped.

“Kang Jin-hyuk… is in there?”

“Did it work… not. yes! you’re right. Jinhyuk Kang, Teresa, T-Bone, and Wolyoung are also locked up.”

I read one by one the personal information that the association staff had ascertained.

“Because this is such an emergency situation, it is unclear whether the competition will proceed further. In other words, the person who plays the biggest role in this Great Temple of Ramses may become the winner of the competition.”

Actually the last chance.

Not only will he win the competition, but if he can rescue those trapped in the temple in front of all of humanity, he will be able to prove that he is above all players.

“…Guide me. “To that temple or something.”

Cheon Yu-seong turned around.

***

Ta-da-da-da-da!

While Dreadlore’s raiders fell victim to their bodies.

The main force of the guild, including Mayer, Kiyov, and Ivankovic, rushed to their original destination.

Run without looking back.

In any case, the survival probability of those abandoned in the bug colony is 0.

You must focus all your attention on securing the book at a time when you are swayed by the trivial emotion of pity.

“How much is left?”

“Huh. omg! soon…! “We’re almost there!”

The explorer exclaimed while taking a deep breath.

As soon as the words were finished, the dark passage changed color and a room decorated with obsidian appeared.

Even at first glance, it doesn’t seem unusual.

A room decorated in all sorts of ancient languages.

The black smoke rising between the cracked obsidian was also extremely ominous.

“It looks like there are a lot of traps.”

Mayer swung his sword like lightning.

The blade crossed the passage in a long path.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!

Waves made of black powder intersected dizzyingly on both sides.

The crescent moon made of sword energy was torn to pieces.

“I don’t think I can just go on my own. Is there a way?”

“Well…”

The explorers hesitated and looked at each other.

Maybe if there is enough time.

They were not the main explorers of each guild. Coming up with a strategy right away was impossible at their level.

Right then.

“That’s really fast.”

The most unpleasant voice rang out from behind Mayer.
