Chapter 359 – 359. Transcendence Level 2
359. Transcendence Level 2
Using the space-folder’s authority, I moved to the hidden location of the Luminous Cave. Moving to a large cavity between the caves, I saw a huge snake curled up in the center of the cavity. It’s a big guy that looks like it’s 1km long. It was so big that I couldn’t imagine how such a huge body could move properly.
“Keukke, is it a boss mob appearance?”
The guy notices that we have entered and slowly raises his body. I hit him first before he came to his senses. The moment the heavenly light pierced his scales, a system message popped up.
[Dark Diamond Anaconda 〈 Black Diamond 〉 – Transcendence Level: 2
– The body is made of diamonds.]
[I encountered a special enemy! The Hunt Event is active! Defeat the enemies to get huge experience points and essences with special skills!]
Kaga River!
“Damn it!”
The scales covering its body reflect the heavenly light. Black scales that diffusely reflect the light emitted from the luminous crystal. Its scales made of black diamonds emit darkness and resonate with an ominous sound.
“Shaaaaa…”
His cries fill the cavity. The guy who completely recognized us as the enemy. Now, it will be difficult to take advantage of surprise, so all that remains is to fight head-to-head.
“Kill!”
Unfortunately or fortunately, the inside of the cavity was quite wide. It was wide enough for us, who became giants 10 times the size, to move smoothly, but thanks to that, even the 1km-long guy could move without difficulty.
“Take it!”
Lee Ji-hyun’s body glows pink. Transforming into her armored knight’s form, she leapt over her snake’s head with a huge greatsword.
“Shaaak!!”
The snake swung its head and tried to hit Lee Ji-hyun’s body. At that moment, intense cold air emanated from Seol Ha-yoon’s body and sealed it.
“Down! Magical! Ultimate Slash!!!”
The moment he was tied to the ice, Lee Ji-hyun activated his special move and spun his body round and round. As if using the power of the giant, Lee Ji-hyeon’s body became about twice as large.
She gripped her greatsword with both hands and slashed it down as if splitting the snake’s head. A gigantic sword dyed in pink cut through the snake’s scales and pierced her skull.
“Kyaaaaagh!!”
Red blood gushed out like a fountain, and the snake screamed. Although wounded, it was not fatal. Its skull was harder than its scales. Lee Ji-Hyun’s attack tore her skin and shook her bones, but did not split her bones and brain.
“Chit.”
She poured out her enormous mana all at once, and Lee Ji-hyun, who temporarily exhausted her mana, rolled on her floor. She babbles as she flies toward me in her haste.
“Hey! Why are you still?”
“The main character always comes out later.”
I roughly grasped his strength. He’s a handsome looking guy. Catching in the normal way sucks.
Then he has no choice but to use a cheat key.
“Kyaaaaagh!”
A wounded snake broke the ice that wrapped around its body and lunged at us. Ha-yoon hurriedly set up an ice barrier, but was unable to stop his advance.
I folded the space and moved over the guy’s head. There was still a scar left by Lee Ji-hyun on the top of his head. However, due to super regeneration, her wounds began to heal. If you leave it like this, the wound will heal quickly. Now is the only time to throw the odds.
Giing.
I formed a long spear over the palm of my hand. A sharp spear of light smelted by heavenly light. I held the spear in my hand and threw it straight at his wound. The spear stretched out and dug into the wound.
Kagagak.
But it was soon blocked. At the tips of my fingers, I felt blocked by the skull several times harder than the scales. But it doesn’t matter. Because I have a cheat key that snakes can’t even imagine.
‘I’ll just use about 30% of it.’
I instantly activated absolute power and blew it into the spear. A spear made of celestial light pierced the snake’s skull as if splitting its head.
Kwajik.
In a short moment of less than 0.1 second, it was an absolute force exerted for a moment, but it was enough to pierce his head. I disabled absolute power right away to conserve a charge. As long as I had penetrated his solid defense, my strength was enough now.
“Kyaaaaak?!”
“Goodbye, my kitten.”
Electric Shock!
A dark diamond anaconda whose brain was pierced and its body trembled. I passed an electric current through the celestial light and charred his soft brain. With this, he will be able to become a true ‘dark’.
“Kyaaaaagh!!!!”
The one that glowed blue, but before long it was charred. I retrieved my spear and lightly landed on top of his head. Behind me as I landed on the ground, the body of a giant snake collapsed.
“It’s lame.”
“There’s a bunch of poop. On the topic of putting a spoon on everything I made.”
“What are you making? On the subject of stupid pink.”
“I am not stupid! And what about pink?!”
“You both did well.”
Leaving behind the corpse of a giant snake emitting pure white smoke, I bickered with Lee Ji-hyeon. As I was punishing her by pulling her cheeky pink hair, system messages popped up one by one. It seems that even after his brain burned out, he was still alive for a while.
“Ouch! Let go!”
[You hunted the Dark Diamond Anaconda. You gain experience.]
[Essence: Acquire Black Diamond (Lv. 2).]
[Essence: Obtain Anaconda (Lv. 2).]
[Obtain Black Dragon Armor (Lv. 2).]
[Obtain the Black Dragon Iron Sword (Lv. 2).]
.
.
.
Like a game, various items were dropped. By the way, where do you get the acquired items and essence? Is there a separate inventory here?
There was no such thing. The corpse of the snake disappeared along with the glow, and the drop item was placed on top of it.
I retrieved the item that was placed where the corpse was. Lv. Maybe it’s because they’re 2 items, but they’re all fucking big. Lv like me. 1 Dari seems too cumbersome to carry, let alone wear.
One of the swords looks the size of a small apartment, so that’s all I’ve said. You’d have to be 10 times taller to wield something like that.
‘Leave the item alone for now.’
I checked integers. Maybe because he’s a special guy, two integers came out instead of one. One is Black Diamond (Lv. 2) and one is Anaconda (Lv. 2). I’ve been thinking for a while about how to handle integers.
“What are you so worried about?”
“If I eat both of these, can I become level 2?”
Obviously, Anaconda (Lv. 2) Essence is garbage. Even if I eat it, will the experience increase by 5%? Even if it’s a level 2, ordinary snakes are nothing compared to superhumans.
The problem is the ‘black adamantine’. Essence that looks like it might contain a transcendence skill. I had no idea how much experience this would reduce.
‘If it goes according to plan, it’s correct to feed Seol Ha-yoon.’
If I could only take level 2, it didn’t matter if I ate it. Our goal is not to raise Seol Ha-yoon, but for one person to level up quickly and carry the rest. Honestly, it would be more efficient for me to be level 2 than Hayoon.
Coincidentally, his experience gained about 30% through ‘hunting’. If I ate the essence like this, I might be able to take the 2nd level.
‘The problem is that I don’t know how much experience points there are…’
I held the essence in my hand and pondered for a moment. Then I decided to just eat it. It was because even if Seol Ha-yoon ate and took a level 2 shot, it seemed like it would take a while to get another level 2-3 essence.
‘Come to think of it, even if Hayoon takes level 2, isn’t it ridiculous if he can’t get the level 2-3 essence?’
Well, it’s me, with the stigma of a person who folds space, she can move freely, but Hayoon probably won’t. If I can take level 2, what I eat will be 10 times more efficient.
The problem is that if you can’t take the 2nd level, you’ll be screwed…
‘I’ll take it somehow if I clear the cave.’
“Can I eat this for now?”
“What, I want to eat too!”
“First of all, I’ll quickly take level 2 from me and feed you a lot.”
I thought optimistically, and absorbed the essence of Anaconda first. As expected, Anaconda’s Essence increased EXP by 4%.
I didn’t expect it anyway, so I wasn’t disappointed. I immediately absorbed the Black Diamond (Lv. 2).
[Essence: Absorbs Black Diamond (Lv. 2).]
[Transcendence Skill: Obtain Diamond Steel (黑).]
[Level up! Transcendence level rises to 2!]
As I absorb the essence, my body is enveloped in light along with the dizzying system messages. This feeling that I felt once before is the feeling of leveling up. A tremendous energy flowing through the whole body with the feeling that the whole body is healed. My body became 10 times bigger and reached transcendence level 2.
“Hehe, I’m glad.”
I moved my body while enjoying the heightened view. Although it became 10 times taller and 100 times larger than a normal human, it did not interfere with movement or anything like that.
I looked down at Lee Ji-hyeon and Seol Ha-yoon, who were procrastinating at my feet. Lee Ji-hyun looking up at me with a stupid expression. I wanted to hit him for no reason, so I kicked him.
“Evil! Hey! Why do you hit me!”
“Because it’s just cute.”
“If your sister is cute, you should give her pocket money and save it! What if I hit you!!”
“Not that cute.”
“Ouch!”
I kicked Lee Ji-hyun once more.
“By the way, wouldn’t it be difficult to move in the cave at that size?”
“It could be shortened, but…”
It is also possible to return the increased size to its original size by disabling the transcendence skill. However, this was not a particularly good idea as it would not be possible to take advantage of the increase in transcendence level at all.
“Do you think we can just go on like this? I guess I’ll have to bend over a bit.”
The cave was quite large, so even at level 2, it was possible to move around. Although it felt like moving through a tunnel dug by dwarves.
“Hehe, shall we start by cleaning the cave?”
I moved my body outside the cavity. At level 0, the giant bugs that looked like giant beasts now feel like little ants.
Cooong!
I walked lightly. I was simply walking, but the earth resonates. The insects under my feet turned into rats and were barked at.
Having reached level 2, I annihilated the beasts in the Luminous Cave in one day.
