Episode 121. Truth (1)
Ran, who ca through the door, stretched.
“Whoa, by the way, is it already the third stage?”
“It’s already the third stage.”
Wooddeuk.
Taeyang responded by fitting his dislocated right arm together.
Taeyang casually aligning the bones of his dislocated arm looked like a skilled warrior and at the sa ti had a grotesque sensibility.
– Sun. Speaking of the last battle, you didn’t have to push yourself that hard. why did you do that
“There was no reason not to. I don’t know if it was before, but now ti is life.”
At the sa ti as the sun spoke, translucent augnted reality appeared.
[The blue devil’s protection supports the player’s body.]
It was a system window that appeared when selecting the blue door that assists the body specs.
Taeyang received the blue door buff for the first ti on the 20th floor.
“It’s great.”
The reason why he chose the door of reinforcent rather than the door of gold that he had chosen so far was self-evident.
Because ti is running out.
“Besides, there was nothing to benefit from the door of gold coins.”
Originally, Hyeon-hye’s plan was to gather a lot of gold coins and get at least one ‘usable’ card through the auction house of the integrated shelter.
However, things turned out to be completely different from what she expected.
for the better.
I haven’t been able to find a aningful sale using the integrated shelter’s auction house yet, but there are too many gold coins.
It was because Taeyang’s share price soared more than Hyun-hye expected thanks to work such as the engraving clan war, so he got gold coins too easily.
In addition, as it was revealed that this capsule had a limited operating ti, the fla clan robbed of my pocket and saved the sun’s goods.
– It’s good, but I can’t like it.
-Yes… Because the situation was catastrophic.
-For those trapped inside the ga, Yoon Taeyang is the savior.
-Lol Taeyang Yoon is the ssiah.
-Are you in the mood for a pun right now? Keep an eye on it. a little.
Ran asked quietly.
“Solar four dinsions. Did you say Earth? What happened to the players from Earth?”
“That’s it.”
“What is the situation?”
“that… … .”
The sun muttered.
ssiah also kept silent.
I can explain.
He said he had a ticking ti bomb necklace hanging around his neck.
But there was no need to inform Ran and Salomon of the situation.
‘As a colleague, I’d like to open up to most things.’
Talking that we may not be able to go together until the end only hurts teamwork among colleagues.
It is difficult to find reliable B-rank NPC player companions.
Since ti has beco a lifeline, it was impossible to be honest with the characters in the ga and gamble with nothing to lose.
The sun changed the topic for no reason.
“To be honest, it’s a problem I’ve felt before. Did you co up too relaxed?”
“Take it easy… … .”
Salomon seed to have sothing to say, but he didn’t say it right away.
because the results were good.
If the results are good, even if you don’t like the process, you can alleviate so of your dissatisfaction.
Of course, it cannot be said that the dissatisfaction that has been suppressed has been completely quelled because it rekindles when the results start to falter.
‘From now on, it’s really the sa as walking on a blade.’
Climbed a quarter of the dinsional labyrinth in two months.
The ti given to the sun is three months, and during those three months, the sun had to clear the dinsional labyrinth.
Arithtically, that ant doubling the pace in the remaining three months.
Even this, too, is a simple mathematical calculation.
Considering the level of difficulty that goes up as you climb the tower, the actual feeling was likely to be more than double that.
ssiah muttered as she looked around the stage.
“Anyway, I don’t know what stage it is.”
“uh? I don’t know?”
“okay. No one knows even on our side of the broadcast. sun. How about yours?”
-I don’t know either.
At Hyun-hye’s words, I looked at the chat window where the sun was going down in a corner of my field of vision.
-?? How do I know what you guys don’t know?
-Ah, do I have to teach you this again? I really… (Dantalian’s highest record on the 3rd floor, hehe.)
-Dehehe.
-Do you have that… friend?
– Uh huh.
Things that don’t seem to help at all.
In this situation, the support window that helped intermittently did not co up.
“hmm. Is it ti for everyone to sleep?”
Hyun-hye, who checked the list of ranker viewers such as KK and Jesus, was speechless.
-Everyone is there… … .
The connection is clear, but no one responds.
It was a story no one knew.
Ran looked around.
“Co to think of it, there is one strange thing.”
“strange thing?”
“Why can’t I see the other players?”
“Oh, I see… … .”
It really was.
There were no additional players coming in.
-what?
Of course, it wasn’t that there weren’t many stages with only a small number of players.
It was the sa with the recent stage Dragonic Lab, and even Taeyang perford the stage by himself in the Dalian stage.
However, statistically speaking, this was an exceptional case.
And in this exceptional case, sufficient justification was provided.
Just as the Dragonic Lab stage was set up as a stage where Balak was ‘experinting’ with a new weapon, and the Dalian stage also had enough background stories for Taeyang to enter alone.
-hmm. I know that Gremory’s floor didn’t have many stages. Was there a stage I missed?
It is on the 21st floor.
area of the top 1%.
As the absolute amount of information collected was small, it was a situation that was likely to exist.
In a way, it was reasonable to say that it was rather luck to have a stage everyone knows on the 19th and 20th floors.
Then a woman appeared in front of the four players.
A skinny body that makes the cheekbones stand out.
Fiery red hair that fell to her waist.
Pale skin and dark circles highlight her emaciation, but her upright posture and elegant aura seem to sublimate her emaciation into sickness.
The 56th Rank Demon King Gremory lightly bowed his head in front of the four players.
“Nice to et you, players Taeyang Yoon and Ran Salomon. and ssiah. I am the demon king Gremory, in charge of the stages from the 19th to the 21st floor.”
The sun didn’t react much.
Other players, including Ran, too.
There were often cases where the demon king ca out and explained the stage, so it’s no surprise.
However, Hyun-hye, ssiah, and viewers were different.
– Wow what.
– First appearance!
-So Gremory is a demon king who looks like this.
-Sothing decadent…
-It’s just like a skeleton.
-and. there’s sothing new
-I’m worried that it won’t interfere with waking up quickly now, really.
-Really. At first, it was amazing and I liked it, but
Hyun-hye muttered in a serious voice.
-For Gremory to appear in person.
“why?”
-Why, why? It’s because it’s never happened before.
The demon king did not always appear on every stage.
However, there were definitely stages where the demon king appeared.
For example, Dantalian, the first demon lord I t on the first floor, and Belial, the demon lord I t on the second shelter, were like that.
These two were demon kings that all players t like constants.
On the other hand, there was also a demon king that could not be t.
In the floor that Taeyang experienced, the Demon King Ciméries in charge of the 10th to 12th floors was like that
– Gremory is also one of those Demon Lords.
“But I also t Cimries.”
-okay. t let’s think Were things normal back then?
“hmm.”
It wasn’t normal.
It appeared because one stage was on the verge of being overturned.
-Unbeknownst to us, certain conditions were achieved.
“so?”
– That the situation is not good. Since you don’t know what stage it is, it’s hard to get achievents and it’ll be difficult to clear it quickly.
Gremory opened his mouth, looking alternately at the sun and ssiah.
“The reason I ca to explain the stage myself is simple. Because this stage was made for the two of you.”
ssiah bent her head crookedly.
“The two of us?”
“yes. You guys have exceeded the standards I set for players from Earth. You deserve to know the truth.”
The sun asked back at the incomprehensible sound.
“truth?”
“You will find out when you clear this stage. You won’t be able to know everything. That would violate the rules of the dinsional labyrinth. All I can tell you is bits and pieces.”
The sun frowned.
The more text you spit out, the more difficult it is to understand.
It was like taking an English listening test.
“I don’t know what you an. ssiah, do you understand?”
“I don’t know either.”
Gremory asked with a smile on his characteristic haggard face.
“It would be faster to experience it than to explain it.”
damn
As Gremory’s fingers rubbed together, the visions of the four players turned upside down.
Taeyang felt the texture of the hard floor on the soles of his feet and looked around at the sa ti.
They were on the upper floors of tall buildings.
‘Inside the building. Is it the president’s office?’
A large chair and desk.
Naplate attached in a triangle.
The back of the desk was made of glass, so it reflected the view of the city.
The four players, including Taeyang, were also wearing suits, not equipnt.
-At first glance, civilization seems to be at least similar to Earth, right?
The sun nodded.
Of course, there were no stages with backgrounds similar to those of modern tis.
The ‘Street of Murder’ stage was like that, and relatively recently, the ‘Bounty’ stage was like that too.
But is it because of the words that it was made for the sun and the ssiah, who are players from Earth?
For so reason, it was difficult to shake off that feeling.
Then a system window appeared in front of the four players.
[7-3 Truth: Find and kill the demon-infected ‘person belonging to the company’.]
[Limit 1. Fail if you witness the murder scene with all eyes, including CCTV.]
[Limit 2. Ti limit 24 hours. Ti remaining – 23:59:59]
[Limit 3. Failure when a human infected with demons contacts the press.]
Click.
A tall, emaciated man entered the room.
As if it were natural, the man sitting on a large chair muttered while looking at the sun.
“Do you know the situation?”
“yes?”
“It’s finally starting. The end of this damn company is near.”
company? end?
Taeyang didn’t understand the context, but he agreed.
“Iknow, right. phew. I thought I would die waiting.”
“You thought you were dying waiting? A psychopathic bastard.”
“yes?”
“what? What kind of respect are you talking about all of a sudden? haha done I’ve given up on understanding you guys long ago.”
The man let out a small sigh and threw a bunch of photos in front of the sun.
“know? Murder scenes should never be witnessed. You can’t get caught on CCTV, let alone people. That of you guys… … Use magic or whatever without restrictions.”
“Is it magic?”
“okay. What’s wrong with your expression? I always whined about why I couldn’t use it. The ti limit is one day. Move fast!”
It’s a matter of course, but Taeyang, who couldn’t keep up with the situation, was looking at the photo with a dumbfounded expression.
The man was outraged at that.
“What are you doing? move! Don’t you know that the mont these guys co into contact with other dia, it’s over?”
“Ah yes.”
Sun grabbed the photos with trembling hands and left the room.
“Is it a negative factor assassination? Why is the stage na true?”
“The given ti is one day. Dozens of people to kill. There will be no ti.”
Ran and Salomon inferred the goal of the stage with calm faces.
Gremory’s stage was originally used to wrap around information in this way.
However, the sun was not included in their story.
couldn’t fit
“This… … It makes no sense. No, it shouldn’t be like this.”
“Huh? What?”
“sun?”
Ran and Salomon looked at the sun.
The face of the sun had beco contemplative.
The face of the ssiah looking at the picture next to him too.
“This… … .”
A bundle of photos thrown by a man.
If Taeyang’s mory is correct, the subject of the top photo among them was the chairman of the missing Dantalian production company.
