Chapter 64 – 064
I thought about it for a while.
Just in case, I don’t want to kill that guy too…
If I kill that bastard now and the fourth hidden ordeal fails…
‘You won’t be able to get that damn skill. If that happens, my other spare life skill will disappear. There’s no need to take risks.’
I slightly lowered the muzzle of the gun I was aiming for between the eyes and aimed for the guy’s thigh and shot.
-Phew! –
“Kwaaaaa!!!!!”
Jun Chang screams and rolls over, clutching his legs.
Because the shot was shot while deliberately avoiding arteries and veins,
I don’t bleed as much as I thought… ,
Like anyone else, if you get hit by a bullet, it will hurt quite a bit.
And since he couldn’t use one leg, Junchang actually lost his mobility.
Jun Chang was hit by a bullet and sat down, whimpering, clutching his legs.
After a while, the mean and dark expression on his face he disappeared and he returned to his original self.
“… What, what? Ugh… ,
Uh, why am I here?
… No, why did I get shot… ?
What’s wrong with you?
Did you shoot me?
No way? Why… ?”
Junchang must have figured out the situation when he saw me holding a pistol with a silencer.
It seems that the dual personality, ‘Devil’, went inside and the original personality, Junchang, came out.
Okay. It will look like that from here.
‘But this guy said it was a twist of a twist,
In fact, both Devil and Junchang were one thing…
It was that kind of final story, right?
I remember it was such a fucking weird setting.
… Actually, I don’t even remember.
… Hmm. It wasn’t very fun, it wasn’t moving, and there wasn’t a lesson.’
“You fucking act so bad.
I already know everything?
You were going to commit serial murder.
Can I tell you all the tricks? Huh?
Your true identity, the dual personality ‘Devil’, is actually…
Just one of your true colors… , Ah, I don’t fucking know.
Anyway, where the fuck did I ever watch a bullshit philosophy anime?
It was all you. This is roughly it. Isn’t that right?”
“… !!!”
“But what a fucking sense of naming… What is ‘Devil’? ‘Devil’? Huh?
It’s so fucking lame, next time you come up with a name, ask someone else. Really.”
I roughly revealed everything this bastard will do.
Junchang looked very shocked.
I approached Jun-chang, subdued him, and tied him up with rope or tape.
While I was doing it, I stopped the bleeding just in case.
I probably won’t die like this for a while.
“It’s all over now. Hmm, let me do what you wanted to do… Okay, let’s fuck the girls… ?”
I shook my hands and thought about the girls I was about to fuck.
‘But isn’t this the end of the ordeal?
Have you completely suppressed the culprit behind this villa incident?
I think you said earlier that even if you subdue or kill the killer, you will be recognized as having survived.’
Just when I was thinking this.
As expected, the system judged completion.
〈 Trial on the 4th floor. Completed ‘Survive the killer or escape from the villa until rescue arrives at the villa’ in a different way. 〉
〈 ‘Survival Skill Lv.1 Set’ is provided as a reward for completing the 4th floor trial. 〉
〈 Survival Skill Lv.1 Set: Survival Skill Lv.1, Herbalism Lv.1, Camping Skill Lv.1, Defense Skill Lv.1, Evasion Skill Lv.1, Escape Skill Lv.1, Hidden Skill Lv.1, Drinking Alcohol Lv.1, Recovery Lv.1, Accuracy Lv.1 〉
The ordeal was completed by completely suppressing Jun Chang, the culprit of the serial murders and disappearances that occurred in the isolated villa.
It’s about surviving a killer… , The killer is gone.
‘There was a murderer? It’s gone.’
I received ‘Survival Skill Lv.1 Set’ as a completion reward.
There were 10 passive skills that seemed quite useful.
Survival Skills Lv.1 provides various knowledge and experiences necessary for survival. I feel like I’ve been working as a survival expert for about 10 years.
He may not be as good as Bear Gralls, but he feels like an expert in that field.
Herbalism Lv.1 has acquired the experience and knowledge of someone who studied herbs for 10 years by eating only rice.
The same was true for camping skills, defensive skills, evasion skills, and escape skills.
For each general passive skill Lv.1, you will gain the same level of ability as if you had practiced and trained for about 10 years by just eating.
The art of hiding has also reached the level of someone who only ate and practiced hiding for 10 years.
I’m probably the best at hide and seek among people my age now.
Drinking alcohol Lv.1 felt a bit unique,
Drinking alcohol means drinking something well… ,
I didn’t quite understand this because it meant I had practiced drinking well for 10 years.
Looking at the rough explanation, it seems like a secret art of some race, but they practiced it for 10 years… ?
Anyway, it is said that this passive skill increases the effectiveness of potions and buff potions by about 10%.
I guess this means that if I eat a stamina potion, while others recover 100 stamina, I will recover 110 stamina.
‘What are recovery and accuracy? Does your resilience improve with practice?’
The last two passive skills were more unique.
Even though the accuracy is okay, the recovery is a bit…
‘… Uh? Recovery and accuracy aren’t passive skills worth 1000 points? These guys cost 10,000?’
Survival skills, herbal medicine skills, camping skills, defense skills, evasion skills, escape skills, hiding skills, and drinking skills were all passive skills worth 1000 points in the store window.
However, recovery and accuracy were not 1000 points, but passive skills worth 10000 points.
“Oh…, Are these passive skills with a slightly different concept? It must be something a little different because the ending doesn’t say ‘alcohol’ but ‘power’. Strength, stamina, and magic power are stat skills, not passive skills , so I think they are a different concept from this… It’s complicated.”
Until now, the concept of passive skills known on Earth was the level of a person who only ate and practiced that skill for 10 years.
If you are swordsmanship level 5, you have practiced swordsmanship for 50 years while only eating rice. If you are shield art Lv. 10, you have practiced shield art for 100 years by just eating.
It meant living through time.
However, recovery and accuracy seemed to be different.
“This is too expensive. Because it’s worth 10,000. I guess it hasn’t been studied yet because not many people have copied it… “I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone on the internet say they bought a passive skill that ends in ‘strength’.”
Maybe I can be the first person in the world to tell you what passive skills that end in ‘strength’ are, and roughly speaking, they are like this?
‘But there’s no need to tell the world. It’s not beneficial to me.’
When I was thinking about various things while looking at the ‘Survival Skill Lv.1 Set’,
The system continued to display a trial completion alarm.
〈 Trial on the 4th floor. The condition for complete resolution, ‘catching the criminal,’ has been completed. 〉
〈 As a reward for completely solving the 4th floor ordeal, we provide the ‘Underworld Goseungjul’. 〉
〈 Underworld Tether: This is an item that ties up a criminal and makes it impossible for them to escape. 〉
A red yet golden rope was held in my hand.
When I unfolded the line, strangely, it continued to grow as much as I wanted.
For some reason, I felt like it could expand infinitely if I wanted to.
When I looked at the price in the store window, it was an item worth 100,000. It was quite an expensive item.
‘Hmm… , It’s not particularly useful right now, but it will be useful someday.’
The rope of the underworld was driven into one side of subspace.
〈 The first hidden trial on the 4th floor. ‘Find out the culprit before the rescue team arrives at the villa or escapes from the villa’ has been completed. 〉
〈 ‘Sixth Sense Lv.1’ is provided as a reward for completing the first hidden trial on the 4th floor. 〉
〈 Sixth Sense Lv.1: This is the 6th sense, similar to foresight, and greatly improves your intuition for detecting crises. This skill is not sold in the store window. 〉
Since I got a new skill, I immediately opened the store window and found out how much it cost.
‘Oh. It’s worth 1 million. Seeing that the cost of upgrading to Lv.2 is 2 million, it was originally 1 million.’
The Sixth Sense Lv.1 passive skill, like the Weapon Skill Lv.1, was a very expensive skill worth 1 million.
I feel better.
〈 The second hidden ordeal on the 4th floor. ‘Suppress or eliminate the criminal before he kills three or more people’ has been completed. 〉
〈 ‘Mystery Spoiler Lv.1’ is provided as a reward for completing the second hidden ordeal on the 4th floor. 〉
〈 Mystery Spoiler Lv.1: Sometimes, with a low probability, a message appears above the criminal’s head saying “This guy is the criminal.” This skill is not sold in the store window. 〉
Mystery Spoiler Lv.1 was a skill worth 100,000.
This skill is neither passive nor active… ,
It was a unique category of skill whose type was unknown.
It was a skill without classification that felt a bit like subspace.
