Chapter 1441 – Baekgye
Three days is a short time.
However, Dre proceeded with the training, saying it was enough to make him wriggle in a crisis and listen to commands.
About two days.
Dre cooperated with the tower owners and put all kinds of situations into ordinary battles. In addition to simple increases in specs due to leveling up, wizards have become more skilled in combat.
During battle, each player was able to respond in their own way to situations such as suddenly freezing underfoot, something falling from the sky, or poison gas overflowing.
Additionally, cooperation increased.
The difficulty level of the extreme situations that Dre puts you in is truly exquisite, allowing you to move just enough to avoid dying. His team members overcame the crisis by assisting those with the means appropriate to the situation.
Item. The increase in specifications due to skill acquisition, etc. Is a bonus. Dre boosted motivation by giving appropriate rewards, such as items or rest, to those who performed well.
In particular, the increase in the specs of Red Tower Master Kranium was enormous, and that was only thanks to the items.
The soul of the person who did not become the black beast that Dre caught a while ago had an absurd ability that could evenly distribute 60 stat points, and Dre gave it to Kranium without hesitation.
Kranium’s lava, which was already strong, became incredibly strong.
Most of the monsters on the front lines were killed by him, leaving no time for the wizards to step forward.
Kranium was so pleased with his training that he constantly said this to Dre.
“I won’t give it back.”
“I’m not asking for it.”
Although not as good as Kranium, everyone was able to strengthen their specifications by obtaining items appropriate for their individual characteristics.
A sense of accomplishment that gets stronger day by day as you work harder.
But. Still, there were no complaints.
Even if it wasn’t, it was a sticky and horrible swamp, but I couldn’t help but be dissatisfied with all the various elements mixed into it to harass it.
Even though they didn’t dare say something to Dre’s face, there were many people who thought to themselves, “Why don’t I get some rest?”
Still. The level of dissatisfaction was shallow.
In any case, after completing the arduous training, there was clear progress, and a place to sleep, eat, and wash was provided.
Wizards who lived a glamorous life in the Magic Tower were fascinated by makeshift beds and bathrooms that they would never have paid attention to.
Dre was very interested in improving life, and he was not satisfied with the relaxation space that was initially provided, so he continued to research and even created a bath similar to a hot spring.
The quest school’s new discovery is that “Finished dishes also go into the inventory.” Dre praised the discovery with his mouth dry.
Not only the research school but also the school that achieved results received sincere praise.
Dre had become a man who was like a coin, constantly being evaluated as a bad guy or a cool guy every half day.
‘That’s amazing.’
The man who thought so was Noram, a member of the Red Tower’s Charging School.
He was also the man who complained to Dre not long ago and whom Dre saved from the hands of the boss monster.
He, who had told Dre about the non-combat school to treat him differently from those scum, was now feeling extremely uncomfortable.
Meals provided. Dragonfly. Bathroom laundry, etc. They all came from the school he had ignored.
To be honest. What would life in this dungeon be like without them?
It was terrifying to even imagine.
‘I was wrong.’
He admitted that he was wrong.
But it was difficult to spit out an apology first.
Days where I wrestle between pride and guilt. Before he knew it, he was experiencing a sense of isolation…
“Today. It was amazing.”
“?”
I heard a cautious voice and looked to the side to see wizards from each tower approaching.
They were the ones who were suddenly trapped in the wall during today’s battle by a large and strong iron wall.
“You…”
“If it were just us, we would never have been able to break down that wall.”
“Oh my. Captain Dre will take care of it too… The wall is not breaking, but the poison is increasing… I thought I was really going to die.”
“Well… I heard there’s a hot tub. Would you like to come with me?”
“…”
This is a very unfamiliar situation.
The wizards of the Magic Tower are all in business relationships.
It was an environment in which people of the same Jeoktap and even of the same school viewed each other as competitors and hurled thorns at each other in their words.
It had been a long time since Noram, who stood at the pinnacle of political excellence, received such pure favor.
Noram did his best to answer with an awkward face and a difficult voice.
“Um… It’s me… Of course it’s good.”
“Haha. Then let’s go.”
“Speaking of which, I don’t know what’s in Captain Dre’s head where he comes up with a different distraction every time.”
“Creative pervert, I guess.”
“Shh, I can hear you.”
“I’m listening.
“”!!””
Dre, who was passing by, gave a thrill. He glared, yawned, and went to stand guard.
While the men of the Magic Tower were pounding their hearts, someone’s voice rang out.
“Ha… Look at what I’m paying attention to~”
The voice that sounded astonished was Erilgear Fault Lucia.
Her blonde hair was wet, as if she had just come out of the wash, and she looked very glamorous.
While the wizards gasped at her incredible beauty, she said with a smile in her eyes.
“Ah. I’m sorry. But I think Captain Dre is too much. So, enjoy~”
While the wizards were slightly dazed, only Noram frowned and glared at her back.
Time passed quickly, and soon it was three days.
Dre went straight to the boss room on the 3rd floor as he said.
The team members, who had suffered from all kinds of interference for three days, were very calm even though they were heading to the dangerous boss room.
No. When I looked closely, I saw that he was not calm.
They were muttering ceaselessly.
“If you fail, add lava to the poisonous swamp…”
“Fighting with a big ice cube around your neck…”
Not only the wizards but also the Maving tribe were in a similar situation.
“They said if I didn’t do it right, they would throw me into the acidic swamp this time…”
“Monster!! We must stop it well…!”
Red team. The yellow team already had fighting skills and a sense of cooperation, so Dre did not bother them.
Dre praised them instead of praising them as accomplished warriors, and the two teams, who were impressed, looked very solemn with a determination to meet Dre’s expectations.
Likewise, Waikatsu, who was thoroughly trained and treated by Dre, was also full of motivation.
Yet. The team arrived at the boss room.
The inside of the boss room on the 4th floor was very spacious, like the boss room on the 3rd floor.
If the red sky on the 3rd floor was impressive, the 4th floor had mud on the floor that seemed to be mixed with all kinds of dirt and a night sky like the Milky Way beyond.
The Milky Way was very beautiful, but no one paid attention to it and was wary of the surroundings.
And.
Coo coo coo coo coo goong.
The floor vibrated. Puff puff puff! Tentacles came out here and there at high speed.
Many tentacles even rose up near the team.
However, among the team members. No one was hit by the tentacles.
The entire team dispersed, then formed a line again, and launched simple attacks as a check.
Puff puff puff puff!!
The tentacles were not strong, so they quickly became mushy when attacked.
From somewhere [Keeeee…!!] I heard a sound of pain. Coming soon, Kukwaang-!! Something huge broke through the mud and revealed itself.
[Keeeee!!!]
On its head, which looks like a giant slime, is the ‘Black King.’ The name ‘defiler.’ Was attached to it.
What made it different from ordinary slimes was that it had something that looked like a skull or zombie attached to its body.
No, it’s not stuck, it looks like the undead face is covered in slime.
The undead glared at the team from within the slime.
Soon it opened its mouth and roared.
Puff puff puff puff puff puff!
Instead of a roar, the space was filled with the roar of numerous bombings.
The black king on the third floor couldn’t even open his mouth and said, “Boom.” I was swept away by the bombing with a [Coughing] Sound.
Papa papang!!
Countless tentacles popped out from the floor again.
This time, sharp thorns sprouted from the tentacles.
Chuaaak!
Not everyone could avoid it this time.
There were no serious injuries, only scratches, but two people were hit.
And.
Creep!
“What!”
“Kaaak!”
The bodies of the two people who had been cut by the tentacles began to discolor from the wounds to black.
They soon attacked the surrounding area, waving their arms.
“My body moves on its own!”
“I’m out of control!”
The situation was conveyed to the team in a calm tone that did not match the creepy phenomenon.
At that moment, the sound of water was heard from above, and then, wow. It suddenly rained.
Jiiiiing!!
The wizards quickly deployed a barrier.
Several of the wizards who were killing the tentacles came into contact with the raindrops, and soon their bodies turned black as well.
“This guy is trying to control us!”
“If you brush against it, it’s over!”
“I’m dizzy, but I’m still okay. I guess it’s okay for people at a high level to take one hit!”
While information is pouring in from all over, those called the purification school are busy moving about. Those called the charging and connecting school assisted them.
Their magic, a purification like a cluster of golden stars, spread across the area.
Paaaaat-!
The bodies of those who had been stained black by the skill return to their original state.
“We can counter mutations with our purification magic!”
“Good!”
[Keeeee!!]
The Black King roared as if the little people’s resistance was disgusting, and this time extended his tentacles directly from his body instead of from the ground.
썄썄썣죁!
The tentacles are swords. Window. Ax, etc. It turned into all kinds of weapons and flew at the team members like a storm.
“Mabing tribe!!”
Dre’s orders were given.
The Marbing tribe seemed to be fine, as if they were not affected by the tentacles or the rain.
They struck down the flying tentacles with their strong bodies.
At that time. Geumtapju, who was preparing a spell, stretched out his hand to the ceiling.
“I will take care of the rain!!”
Blah blah blah!
The ceiling was covered in gold.
The rain stopped.
Meanwhile, the yellow storm launched by the Emperor Hwangtap flew and trapped the Black King.
The tentacles flinched, and Dre shouted.
“Special Team!! Boss Deal!!”
These people have been preparing their magic with bated breath until now.
Those with powerful firepower, including El, who had a large single shot, stretched out their hands.
Quaaaaa!!
The bombardment continued to sound so strong that it made the Black King feel sorry for himself.
Elysia’s huge sphere of light was fired like an autocannon, and the huge body of the Black King of the fourth floor was shaking. Grumbling. Was being pushed out.
Teiria, who was part of the special attack team and was shooting heat ray magic, stuck out her tongue as she looked at El next to her.
“Even though he has a dirty personality, he has guaranteed firepower.”
“What?”
“What.”
To El’s annoyance, Teiria also responded confidently.
A calm Tayria suddenly looked at Dre.
‘Amazing. ‘He was visionary.’
Who would have thought that the boss had the power to turn players into his own limbs.
If the team had been there three days ago, it would have suffered equivalent damage, if not annihilation.
That nasty training. I was seeing great results…!
Dre went further ahead than anyone else, cutting off the tentacles that the Black King was shooting out as if struggling.
Teiria stared at him without even knowing how trustworthy he looked.
Hwii profit…!!
“Huh?”
Tayria opened her eyes wide.
Above the night sky, something…
[Keeeee!!]
Kwaaaaang!
Noise and roar out of nowhere.
While everyone is covering their ears from the ear-piercing noise, the owner of the noise is. A huge crow swoops! Caught someone
“Uh huh?”
“Leader!”
“Demon!”
Dre was caught by the crow’s feet and began to move away, beyond the night sky.
“That…! Isn’t it standing?!?!”
El tried to shoot the light ball, but the Black King, who had cleared away the storm of the Hwangtapju, aimed at El with her tentacles.
He was glaring at El, who had punched a hole in his body, with a look of resentment at her.
“Tsk…!”
Dre was moving further and further away, beyond the night sky, below. Disappeared to a place where I don’t know what’s going on…
***
[Kkiss!!]
Crackling.
Are you trying to make meatballs? The crow’s feet were squeezing my body as if it was crushing it.
I have every intention of killing him.
This bastard. I did hit it first, though. Even if you are persistent, you are too persistent.
“How are you going to take responsibility?”
I’m pissed.
I told my team members to be on guard at all times because something might happen, but you idiot. What if you hide your presence and snatch me up and I fall for it?
“The captain’s dignity is gone!!”
Shukaaak-!!
The crow’s leg was amputated.
[Keeeee!!]
Round and round!!
We lose our balance and fall in the stormy night sky.
I can see the crow’s shocked face, as if it wasn’t enough that I wasn’t crushed and didn’t know that I was going to crush its own foot.
It’s killing me.
The armor of the eastern corps commander and the spear of the southern corps commander.
The armor withstood the power of a crow, which is presumed to have the power to shatter anything it touches, and the spear, which emits white flames, annihilates black beings with just a touch.
I use the leap skill. It glided through the sky and rushed at the crow.
The crow, seeing me approaching, hurriedly flapped its wings in the air and turned to confront me.
The bewilderment seen in the numerous eyeballs filled with large eyes.
“Why? Did you think I would run away?”
Before I bother you any more.
You catch it here.
A crow flies freely even with injured wings.
I swing the spear, restricting its movement and stabbing at the gap.
A sudden air battle broke out.
A fight between free-flying giant crows and humans with limited aerial combat.
The result was obvious.
This is my victory as a gamer.
Kwasik!!
[Keeeee!]
My spear pierced the crow’s wing.
Even though it seems like it’s flying freely, there is a pattern to the flapping of its wings.
That moment. The ground was visible.
Previous. Similar to the playground I saw when I went to attack the magic tower that was playing on the first floor of the black earth, it was a place overflowing with flowers where children could play.
Kuaaaaang!!
As crows crash to the ground and flowers flutter, I tup. I landed lightly.
[Kiiiii…]
The crow tried to get up but fell down.
If he hadn’t let his guard down, he wouldn’t have been able to win so easily.
In other words. If you don’t kill it this time, it’ll be very annoying next time.
Because this guy is very smart. I will learn and aim for more perfect gaps.
“You can’t run away with those wings, right?”
I laughed at him and pointed the tip of his spear at my beak. I was planning to kill it by piercing its head with its beak like this.
It is very satisfying to see the crow’s giant eyeballs filled with human eyeballs filled with fear.
“Goodbye. I will use the items well…”
[Caw…]
“?”
The weak voice did not come from the crow in front of me.
Let’s turn our heads. A small crow that looked like a miniaturized version of a giant crow was standing in front of me, trembling.
[Wow…!!]
The giant crow tried to get up and floated! I knocked him down with a spear.
At that moment, a small crow came running towards me and tried to peck me with its beak.
I was nervous for a moment, but the guy ran towards me and fell and rolled around.
Crinkle…
I could hear the sound of his stomach growling.
…No way. Is this the crow’s child?
Suddenly. I remembered the first time I saw a crow.
The crow at that time was very small, like this baby crow now.
That. Was it a disguise to protect his children?
It’s just a guess, but this guy back then. They thought I was coming for their children. Did you come to eliminate the entity that saw the baby crow’s existence?
“Where are you from?”
Pow! My kick kicked the crow’s beak and speared its beak, pinning it to the floor.
[Kaaaaa!!]
While the giant crow was howling in pain, the baby crow jumped up and ran towards me.
I raised my foot to kill the baby by stepping on it.
[Oh no…]
“…Crazy fuck.”
Can the crow speak?
That too, Dad?
[Keeeee! Meeeee!!]
A giant crow struggling despite being in pain.
He was looking at the cub, not himself.
[Oops. OMG!]
[Keeeee! KIeeeee! Ahhh!!]
“So what.”
I got over this kind of shocking drama. Did you think you would save the bastard who tried to kill me?
Should I do that?
Did you hear the word dad?
That. He’s just an asshole.
“Fuck…”
You’re an asshole…
“Oh shit!!!”
I swear loudly and swoosh!! A spear was pulled from its beak.
I took out a high-quality healing potion from my inventory and poured it into the crow’s beak and wing tips.
The regenerative power is strong, and it will recover soon.
Then, he took out the dishes he had put in his inventory and threw them in front of the cub, and screeched. He grabbed the giant raven by its head feathers and thrust it into his face.
“I’m warning you. If you see me in the future, I will kill you. Understood?”
[…
“Because I don’t care about you or your babies. Don’t chase me from now on. If you catch my eye one more time, I will kill you and your babies. Do you understand?”
I don’t know if he understood what I meant, but I went up, stepping through the air as if to show off.
Eight days.
Such an idiot.
