Episode 710 The arrogant gathering place

is exciting! Exciting! Exciting!

My heart was beating fast.

After the Tower of Trials became a reality, I searched for several clues needed to conquer the tower.

The ‘Crown’, an essential relic to go to the 50th floor, and the ‘Necronomicon’, which records the beings of the 50th floor.

and.

The ‘lost language’ that is the source of the power they use and enjoy.

‘No, to be precise, the ancient language is just a part of the lost language. If you master that language perfectly, you can gain power beyond that of the ancient beings.’

Although it has already grown tremendously, it is still a long way off compared to non-standard monsters such as Azathoth and Shubniguras.

There was such a gap that it was difficult to guarantee whether you would be able to last even an hour, let alone win, if you just fought with your bare body.

This is an inevitable result even if you reach max level and meet all items to the final specifications.

This is because Azathoth is the final boss that was designed from the beginning to be unbeatable.

so that.

‘There is no choice but to mix variables and anomalies.’

Lost language is a hidden card that can create one of the most important variables.

Jinhyuk swallowed his dry saliva and walked towards the gaping crack.

If the situation arises, he is ready to use all his abilities, including the crown, at once.

Wooooow!

And the moment I entered the crack, a pure white snowstorm disturbed my vision.

Creepy.

A chill rushed through the primordial flame.

A world of extremely low temperatures where even the air freezes. In the middle, I saw a half-broken temple with black pillars lined up in a row.

This temple looks strangely familiar.

As Jinhyuk started walking, he noticed someone sitting in the middle of the stairs.

“This is unexpected.”

Jinhyuk gave a greeting with a mixture of emotions.

This is my honest feeling.

I never imagined I would meet this person here.

“That’s what I want to say.”

As if the other person felt the same way, he shook off the snowstorm and stood up.

There’s no way you wouldn’t know.

How could you not know?

A black-haired man wearing a white robe.

‘Beltor de Roanmask’.

A geek who specialized in the ancient kingdom’s barrier arts.

When we first met, I thought I encountered his thought form. Because it was impossible for an ordinary person to still be alive after thousands of years.

but.

Now that I have seen the many sides of the tower, I finally understand.

That person is also one of the ancient climbers such as the Frost Spirit and the Undead.

“I had a really hard time finding this place, too. “How on earth did you find the ‘Arrogant Gathering Center’?”

“Would you believe me if I told you it was a coincidence?”

“I worked too hard for that. No matter how talented you are, it is hard to say that you have mastered the art of barrier art in such a short period of time…”

Beltor, who was speaking, snapped his fingers.

At that moment, barriers reaching 10 stars overlapped.

Before even knowing what was used, a dice-shaped tube was created around Jinhyeok.

It’s too much to just say it’s a matter of skill.

Jinhyuk responded immediately.

[The unique ability ‘Ancient Barrier’ is activated!]

The calculation speed will not be that far behind here either.

Because it was a barrier technique that even worked on ancient beings.

Kwakwakwakwakwa…!

Papa papap!

Colorful lights intersected in one space.

Offset, collision, release, and fusion were repeated in less than a minute.

“Kyaa.”

The last thing that came out was Beltor’s elasticity.

An exclamation with a pure meaning, not mixed with selfish intentions.

It seems like it’s a new feeling to know that a rookie with a promising future has suddenly become an absolute power that stands shoulder to shoulder with him.

“If I made one mistake, I really could have died.”

“ha ha ha. For all that, you seem quite relaxed, don’t you think? I expected it, but this exceeded my expectations. “I wondered if I should explore this lonely place alone, but I found a very reliable companion.”

This arrogant gathering place was an unknown world that even Beltor, the master of barrier arts, could not yet accurately understand. It was

definitely a place that could not help but be like that.

‘That’s a good name.’

Jinhyuk looked around.

This is a special space where all the erased locations of the Tower of Trials gather.

It is a concept of a middle ground where at least a state level or higher level manager intervenes before the area disappears completely.

Of course, as all the memories of the tower are mixed up, there will be an abundance of secrets and advanced information.

‘It’s a feat that cannot be put into price.’

Jinhyuk swallowed his saliva internally.

“I know you’re excited, but it would be better not to wander around mindlessly. I don’t know if you know this, but it seems like they treat intruders like us as very unpleasant foreign objects. “I was itching to get rid of them whenever I got the chance.”

The entire body is protected by barriers, but if you are even the slightest bit careless or make a mistake…

…it is said that it will be immediately torn to pieces and reduced to a handful of blood.

instead. As the risks were great, there were also advantages.

One hour outside is one week here.

Because the flow of time was different, I was able to explore every nook and cranny of this place with plenty of time to spare.

“I have made enough preparations.”

Jinhyuk has unlocked all of his exclusive skills.

Starting with the 12 signs of the zodiac, numerous barriers filled the night sky with falling snow.

“Is there somewhere you want to go? “I will personally guide you, especially the first time.”

“I really appreciate that. “I will not decline.”

The first destination was decided long ago.

A round house made of wood located next to the collapsed temple.

That place was once the residence of ‘Hasting’, one of the senior managers.

After it became known that he had become attached to the ancient gods, Hasting fell and eventually lost everything he had, including his life.

With all the information that serves as a point of contact with ancient beings.

‘There must be a reason why he had no choice but to betray.’

The ‘memory stone’ that Ellis obtained through her distance from Gabriel did not contain much information.

The story of a man who surrendered to the power and authority of ancient gods in a past filled with obvious tear-jerkers and supernatural drama.

The all-too-typical flow of memories had enough plausibility but lacked appeal.

That wasn’t enough to explain the distorted character of Hasting.

“good. I will guide you. But there won’t be much there. “It’s so close that I’ve been to it several times.”

“I’m sure Beltor confirmed it, but it’s out of personal curiosity. “Please understand.”

“no no. “If you find what I couldn’t find, that would be extremely exciting news.”

Beltor hummed and moved.

Good!

When the door opened, an empty space was revealed.

The furniture and documents that Hasting used during his lifetime remained intact.

“I need to look further inside, so feel free to look around.”

“thank you.”

When Beltor disappeared, Jinhyuk summoned Salamander.

Grumble!

“master!”

A small fire-breathing Salamander wandered around the living room.

“Search through this place. “Don’t go to ordinary places, but focus on areas that appeal to your senses.”

The reason I chose Salamander among the five elemental spirit beasts is because it can most sensitively sense warmth in this frozen place.

Due to the nature of the goblin race, which prefers warm places, there was a high possibility that they would always leave a hiding place where warmth was preserved.

“lol. “It’s a bit of a difficult mission, but…”

Salamander rubbed his palms.

Where did this kid learn to be bad?

However, given the circumstances, it would be better to give them carrots rather than sticks.

“I’m handing over the position of leader of the Spirit Special Forces to you for a week. I will also borrow the ‘unquenchable bonfire’ from Old Man Orun. “Is this enough?”

“I’ll do my best!”

Salamander stuck his nose into the floor and started sniffing for warmth.

1 hour 2 hours 3 hours.

Time passed helplessly.

‘Not here either. ‘Here too.’

The search continued for over 12 hours, but no additional clues could be obtained other than the existing information. As Beltor said, it is just a ruin with nothing delicious to offer.

however.

‘That cunning bastard can’t do that.’

Jinhyuk did not give up.

It’s not something to think about from a third person’s perspective. From Hasting’s perspective, you have to think about how he would have kept his secrets hidden.

Jinhyuk scanned the mansion once again.

Stacks of documents, books, and miscellaneous things.

As expected, nothing particularly catches my eye. The keepsakes that Hasting mainly used were very common.

‘Now that I think about it, that’s something Hasting has never taken off…’

I don’t know if it was to hide his true feelings, but Hasting always wore glasses. always. Without a single exception.

no way.

Jinhyuk picked up the glasses lying on the table.

And then he slowly put the glasses on his eyes.

What I felt was a very slight sense of discomfort. It was so faint that at first glance you would have thought it was nothing special, but this time Jinhyeok was confident that he had found the right clue.

“Tuksha.”

Goblin language meaning liberation or startup.

…no response.

“Samaluk.”

An ancient rune with the same meaning.

This too has no response.

then.

“Isrine.”

A short starter word flowed out.

It was an ancient language.

OK.

Parts…!

A completely new scene unfolded through the glasses.

[The memory is played.]

[This video is played only once and then permanently destroyed.]

Like a flash, the past that Hasting had kept hidden came to mind.

And that is….

“…look at this?”

…It caught Jinhyuk off guard in a completely different sense.

***

A week passed inside.

“Are you going now?”

Watching Jinhyuk repacking his luggage, Beltor licked his lips with regret.

I had held on to Jinhyuk once before, but this time, it seemed like I was 100 times more sad about breaking up with him than before.

“Because the time given is only here.”

It’s a pity, but now it’s time to leave.

If I delay any longer, my colleagues waiting at the Great Temple of Ramses will find it strange. Above all else, there was a reason to quickly resolve the situation over there.

-You stole the precious Medusa that I was carefully raising.

It didn’t take long for Rick to realize that his collection had been robbed. The owner of the caravan, who had never seen a loss in his life, had his pride seriously tarnished.

But Rick didn’t use the private line for that reason alone.

-I received a call from Beriel. Maybe… I think you should listen to this part yourself.

Rick relayed what happened in the demon world.

As the saying goes, these were all serious issues that could not be easily overlooked.

‘Not only the Elder Gods, but also the Zodiac signs have started to move.’

The trend at the top is becoming more and more serious.

I instinctively felt that an inevitable decisive battle was approaching.

“Well, I guess it won’t be any use to try to stop him again. Still, the time we spent together was beneficial in many ways.”

Beltor stretched out his hand.

“Thanks to Beltor, I was able to obtain a talent that was difficult to handle.”

I came here and looked into Hasting’s memories. Part of the ‘lost language’ has been acquired.

If I hadn’t met Beltor, it wouldn’t have lasted even a week.

furthermore.

Clues to learning the remaining lost languages were also obtained.

“I look forward to seeing you again. “Our friends are also quite interested in you.”

Hoo.

Ancient climbers showing interest?

Maybe I will be able to meet the frost spirit in person.

I had new expectations, remembering the Frost Spirit Spear that Jinhyeok had placed in subspace.

“please. “I look forward to that day.”

After finishing speaking, Jinhyuk threw himself into the crack he came from first.

***

[Return to the Great Temple of Ramses.]

When I returned to my original location, all the raiders had disappeared.

“Oh! Are you here, contractor?”

“Where have they gone?”

Jinhyuk asked Alice, who was playing with making a sand castle.
