Chapter 298 – 292 Tyrant Dragon’s Labyrinth
The 5th floor had a winter concept as Anne had speculated.
Trees and bushes that are left bare but bare. A landscape where green grass sparsely peeks out through the ankle-deep snow.
And the occasional blizzards and raging frosty winds.
“…….”
Is Siberian frozen ground in the middle of winter like this? Hwanin swallowed in vain at the chill that permeated his bones.
Her spirit was overflowing, so I thought of putting on her clothes and cape to keep her body temperature with the spirit, but she didn’t think it would be this much.
If the code is cut off, she will freeze to death in her sleep.
=Master, wait a minute.=
Just then, Isilite pulls out her box from her space bag. The top of the ear clad is a box of clothes sent as a gift.
=Yuri unnie said that this is a coat with cold resistance function. You will be warm if you wear this.=
What came out of it was a gray fur coat full of white fur on the inside.
“…… Good luck.”
Is it because it is a magic tool? The chill has gone quite a bit. The feeling of standing in the GOP in Cheorwon, Gangwon-do in the middle of winter with bare body is greatly alleviated to the level of chilliness in late autumn.
At this level, you can survive without using the Code.
Isilite, who took out her winter snow boots and her gloves, armed her Hwanin with her cold protection items.
“Thank you.”
Hehe.=
The tour of the 5th floor started like that.
The heterogeneous species that appeared on the 5th floor, which was as bright as daylight, was similar to the 4th floor, but different, perhaps because the snow accumulated on the ground reflected the light.
On the first floor of the labyrinth, a heteromorphic species of the second-class lizard appeared alone, sometimes in groups of two.
On the second floor, two or three heteromorphic species of scaled reptiles of the third class came out, and on the third floor, small dinosaurs came in groups of four.
On the 4th floor, the number decreased again, and 1 or 2 began to appear, but from the 4th floor, the appearance changed considerably.
In earnest, truck-sized sub-dragons, named for their resemblance to dragons, began to appear.
Water dragons resembling beasts, ichthyosaurs resembling a fish family, birds resembling birds, and dinosaurs resembling reptiles because they are said to look scary.
Heterogeneous species appearing on the 5th floor were also such sub-dragons, but the size was larger than that of the 4th floor, to the level of a large bus.
“Is this a real heterogeneous species?”
Heterogeneous species that greatly increased regeneration through phase power.
Heteromorphic species with extremely high defense through phase power.
Heterogeneous species that focus their phase power on attack power and have ridiculously high muscle strength.
A heterogeneous species that uses elemental attacks with phase power in earnest has appeared.
Hwanin understood why he was called a real heterogeneous species when he saw a woodpecker-like dragon fighting with his girlfriends.
Kiriririk-!!
Kaga gaga river!
=Keugh!=
When the beak, dyed in the blue light of the phase power, struck Anne’s shield, which was stained bluish, the sound of iron striking iron and blue sparks flew out.
On the 4th floor of the prison labyrinth, the shield of the castle wall, which was not even scratched even when attacked by Hetzling zombies, is dug out and iron shavings are scattered.
=Huh!!=
In the midst of attacking Anne, Isilite strengthened her strength and rushed forward like her island battle, swinging her red rick. Surprisingly, her gray feathered wings turned bluish and Isilite’s red rick slashed Aang! Blocked it
However, the attack I had hoped to block in the first place.
Woodpecker Joryong let out a roar of pain with his beak wide open as the pain pierced his side.
Redrick’s attack was a fake, and the real one was a multi-sword weapon reduced to the level of a long sword.
Aaaaa!!
The white feathers permeated with gray were cut and fluttered like snowflakes, and red blood and intestines poured out between them.
Anne was also watching, but she wasn’t. It was smashed by using a crash, a technique that gives all shocks to one point, by putting strength and phase power on the feet of the roaring dragon with its head raised.
Kukkoom!!
Chill-!
As he screamed and twisted his body in pain, the woodpecker Joryong felt the world suddenly turn round and round.
…… ?
His own body falling over with his throat severed in the middle.
Recognizing that his head had been cut off belatedly, Jo Ryong closed his eyes in quiet rage.
= Hoo-wook, Hoo-wook….=
=Huh!=
Hwanin warned the girlfriends who exhaled white breath like breath.
“Isilite, Anne. That’s the direction It arrives in 30 seconds.”
When Hwanin, who replenished the energy consumed by the girlfriends by releasing energy, stepped back, they also hurriedly grabbed their weapons and moved in the direction Hwanin pointed.
=Wow!!=
Bang bang!
Anne goes first and bangs the shields of her castle with her hammer of wrath.
Each time, a blue light flashed along with an unpleasant sound, and the bare trees with not a single leaf on them exploded, and a white tiger the size of a bus appeared between them.
Grrr.
Yellow eyes that split vertically like a reptile. The molars grew straight like a saber-toothed tiger. Its legs are covered with scales that look harder than steel, and the tip of its tail sprouts long, sharp spines like a spear.
And an aura like white cold air that covered the whole body.
= Oh. He looks a bit strong.=
=Anne, it is forbidden to be careless.=
= Don’t be careless! Aaaaa!!=
Hwanin, who cast a decree with a lower spirit on Anne, who charged Seolhoryong like a chariot with a spirited spirit, and Isilite, who silently followed her like an assassin, pulled the woodpecker bird’s soul out of her corpse.
“Whoa…….”
A whopping level 6 soul. In terms of rank, it is an upper-middle class soul. As he applied it to his body, the unique sensory illusion, which rapidly increased the density of the soul, groaned inwardly.
This feeling that is difficult to explain with the senses that exist in the world.
The soul of the 6th grade heterogeneous species was a mixture of intermediate and upper intermediate.
The strengthening effect of intermediate spirits is twice as much as that of lower spirit spirits, and the effect of upper and middle spirits is about 2.5 times.
The problem is more than the body strengthening ratio, I feel that the instinctive knowledge of the phase power is engraved into the body when the heteromorphic species of the 5th floor is commanded here.
The majority of low-level souls had physical skills, but as the level went up to higher levels, those skills disappeared and knowledge related to phase power increased.
If there is a problem, it is not verbalized like the knowledge acquired in books, but it is the way the internal organs work or the principle of thinking in the brain.
Moreover, he himself cannot handle phase power. In a word, it is meaningless knowledge, but for girlfriends, it is no different from extreme reading.
Everyone is awakening and pioneering their own flow of phase power, and if other knowledge intervenes in it, a coin initiation, commonly referred to in martial arts, may take place.
However, Hwanin continued to impose a code on himself.
‘Rather, it is possible because there is no phase power. If I accumulate knowledge like this, I might be able to feel and use phase power someday.’
It is because I hope that the accumulated unconscious knowledge will someday be harmonized and sublimated into one fruit, but there are other reasons as well.
The more the souls of the middle and upper classes were commanded, the more their souls were being trained.
Proof of this was the rapidly increasing number of soul orbs.
A week has passed since I came down to the 5th floor. In the meantime, the number of soul orbs increased by 8 more, from 72 to 80.
If this upward trend continues, it will not be long before it reaches 96.
‘Even if I collect 96, I don’t think my soul art will grow.’
For some reason, Hwanin feels that soul art will grow to the next level only when there are 144 of them.
Kowaaaaagh-!!
Hwanin, who was lost in thought for a moment, was awakened by Seolhoryong’s roar.
The front claws of Seolho-ryong, whose claws sprouted like blades, poured down countless times on Anne’s shield with a blue light.
The 6th-class Holy Fighter, who can be said to be a defense specialist, knocks out all the attacks of the seolhoryong, who are driven madly, with a shield, and occasionally swings the hammer of heavenly punishment to hit the bridge of the nose and stomp the top of the foot, etc., Steadily tanking and secure aggro.
=…….=
In the meantime, Isilite waited behind her, and as soon as Anne decided that she had definitely got her aggro, she quietly launched her attack.
When Anne alone tanks her for about a minute, her heterogeneous person is in front of him, blocking and draining all of her attacks, and focusing her anger on Anne, who hits her painfully from time to time.
Her blood pressure was so high that she wanted to kill Anne right in front of her eyes, so she didn’t pay attention to the guy beating her right next to her.
Of course, the degree of concentration of the anger is different for each individual, so there are some individuals whose attack targets bounce around like ping-pong even though they thought they had captured aggro.
So Issilite began to attack slowly and weakly.
She slaps her on the sides, back, and hind legs so as not to interfere with Seolhoryong’s attack or hinder her movements.
Kreung!
Was the attack annoying? Seolhoryong swung her harpoon tail and hit Isilite, but Isilite continued the attack by dodge or dodge the tail attack like her whip with Redrick.
Kwadeuk!
Cuckoo!
When Redrick struck the hamstrings of his hind legs and the scales awoke, the head of the Snow Dragon swung back to Isilite.
At that moment, Anne’s hammer banged her chin! Slap
=Where are you looking!=
Kwaaaaa!!!
Blood began to flow from Seolho-ryong’s eyes when he saw the blood from her snout.
His attack speed was about 20% faster, and his body movements became nimble. On the contrary, the method of attack has become ignorant and linear. It seems that the seizure button was properly pressed and focused only on the attack.
Isilite’s eyes lit up at the sight of the snow dragon striking her front claws over Anne’s shield, half-raised on her hind legs.
It is a state of anger that no one can see in her eyes other than Anne.
‘Now!’
Throw the sword of light away! While cutting off the cumbersome and menacing Seolho-ryong’s tail, she pushes her phasic power into Redrick and violently strikes Seolho-ryong’s left hind leg.
Kwa Kwang, Kwa Ji Jik! Woodeuk, Kwagak-!
The gray shiny steel-hard scales were smashed and cracked and turned bloody in an instant, but Seolho-ryong held on to her shield with her paws only to kill Anne and bite Anne’s head with a bite.
=Where are you sticking your stinky snout! Violent Light!!=
Flash!
Growl!!
As a huge flash of light burst from Anne’s forehead, Seolho-ryong tightly closed her eyes and struggled.
In response to her blindness and blocked vision, Isilite summoned the sword of light again and, following the advice of her phantom, used a simple technique she learned to wield Redrick like mad.
The conversation she had with Hwanin the day before yesterday runs through her mind.
“Isilite. What should I do to maximize attack power and damage?”
=Attack with full phase power.=
“That is natural. What else could there be?”
= Uh…… Well…….=
“It’s about pouring all the attacks into one spot. Just as weapons and armor are easy to break again after being repaired, the more you attack the same place, the easier it is to inflict great damage.”
=Ah!=
“If it is an attack that can be used with your light sword, there must be a method like this. Cut the trajectory swinging Redrick with the sword of light 1 second in advance, and then hit the spot with Redrick and pass. It is a method that can give penetration and internal damage at the same time.”
The demonstration Hwanin showed with the knight’s sword was eye-opening and elegant.
The panel sword first cuts through the exact path with no error of even 1mm from the trajectory of the knight’s sword, followed by the knight’s sword and the remaining five panel swords, swinging like a fan.
A terrifying skill that seems to end up dismembering whatever is on the way.
Chjakjak- Tsugagak-!
Although it fell short of the precise swordsmanship she showed at that time, Isilite, who was proceeding to make the left hind leg of Seolho-ryong tattered while performing a technique that could be imitated by her, made her eyes shine at the moment.
=Sum!=
Wicked-!
She slashed the heel of her right hind foot with a spirited sword.
<brhehe-!!
Seolho-ryong let out a fierce roar of pain, then hesitated and growled in anger.
It looks like he regained his reason as if his anger had escaped through spilled blood.
Hwanin, who read the eyes of Seolho-ryong, whose tail was cut off and his hind legs were all broken and bleeding profusely, warned him.
“I intend to run away.”
Are you running away? Are you spitting out shit like that? But if the doryeong runs away, he must be running away.
Anne pushes her phasing power into both of her legs to bolster her leg power for the chase, while Isilite spins her phasing power a bit more to boost her physical strength.
Seolho-ryong, who felt a greater threat to Hana with the bird behind him than to the two blocking his path, let out a roar filled with phase power.
Whoa!!
The snowflakes piled up on the ground are blown apart by invisible air waves.
The phase current dampened most of the roar’s power, but the sound itself made Hwanin’s mouth feel bitter as his eardrums tingled and his intestines swayed.
It’s not an attack, it’s such a shock from a threat. I can’t stand it even for a second if you get close.
With that thought in mind, I took out six panels and processed them with a sword, and flew them to the place where I read the movement of Seolho-ryong.
The six daggers that fly like a train bite their tails and lock themselves in the eyes of Seolho-ryong, who turns to escape.
If it was one blade, it would have bounced off due to the intraocular pressure of the eyeball, but thanks to the three blades concentrating on each other, they pierced the eyeball of Seolho-ryong.
Aaaaa!!!
Seolho-ryong howling and running rampant as if needles were stuck in both eyes.
The moment Seol Ho-ryong, who had been pushed back even though his eyes were intact, lost both his eyes, the victory or defeat was decided.
The battle on the 5th floor was generally done in this way.
When Hwan-yeon finds Hyung-jong Lee, he approaches and fights him. As they fight, other deformed species, attracted by the sound, come to visit.
If the speed of the coming heteromorphic species is fast, Isilite expresses multiple sword skills to deal with it as quickly as possible.
If there is no heteromorphic species coming, capture the heteromorphic species you have hunted, move to a safe place, recover your energy and stamina, and start looking for the heteromorphic species again.
The action is simple, but when it comes to the surrounding environment, it becomes not so simple.
The concept of the 5th floor is a pure white snowy field. In addition to heterogeneous species, it means that we have to fight against temperatures low enough to accumulate snow.
Whoo oh oh-
= Ugh! I really hate the frosty wind!=
=Huh.=
As the white frost wind swept through, Isilite and Anne gave a small shudder.
Queers have a high basal body temperature, and their thick, rich, and soft feathers provide protection from the cold. Isilite and Anne also have high cold resistance because they protect themselves with excellent physical abilities and phase power.
However, Hwanin has an ordinary body. Although his cold resistance was at the level of ordinary people, he was able to hunt on the 5th floor thanks to being armed with cold protection items.
If even one of them didn’t have a countermeasure against the cold, hunting on the 5th floor would have been difficult.
But now, a week later, another problem arose.
= Ugh, the armor is frozen. Seolhoryong’s cold aura is really the worst.=
= My armor…… Hoverk is stiff.=
Parching!
=Oh, the chain is broken again.=
=Oh, your armor is completely scrapped.=
= I can’t help it. Just brushing against it makes me cringe. =
After the battle, Hwan-in, who confirmed the existence of the Sangsang Stone and the Spirit Stone in Seolho-ryong’s corpse, approached Isilite and Anne and asked.
“Isilite, Anne. How much phase power do you have left?”
=I have about 40% left.=
=Uh, I’m about 60%. But I’m a bit hungry. Dew is hungry too?=
= Yes. Little.=
The amount of white breath that could be several times his own. In order to preserve the body’s ability in such a cold place, the amount of calories consumed must be high.
Hwanin looked at the faces of his girlfriends whose noses, ears, and cheeks were red, then nodded.
“Then let’s go back to the hideout and rest and then come out again. Isilite, I think your armor needs to be refinished.”
=Yes.=
=Yes.=
Despite this situation, the atmosphere was not bad.
Hwanin recovers energy through magic-saving, and then releases energy to replenish the energy they consumed while maintaining body temperature, and for protein to secure the consumed calories, Hwanin chooses meat from heterogeneous species that can be eaten with the vision of the soul. Don’t worry, we have a large stock.
Water can be drunk by melting snow, so there is no need to worry about drinking water, and firewood, although raw, is scattered around.
At that time, Hwanyeon, who had even put her head in his glove, stuck out his head and said.
“A big one appeared over there. I haven’t noticed this yet, but if you’re going back, you’d better go back soon.”
“It is. Move right away.”
