Episode 688 Labyrinth ‘Border of the Horizon’ (1)
Labyrinth ‘Border of the Horizon’.
At the Tower of Trials, this place was often referred to as the last point climbers could reach.
Because you can step in once, but you can’t get out again.
Even great hero-level explorers and several gods discovered this place, but no one showed up again.
‘I went through a lot of hardships too.’
Jinhyuk moistened his dry lips with his tongue.
If one had to choose the most troubleso labyrinth below the 50th floor, this place would definitely be in the top three. It is a place full of variables and gimmicks.
The beginning part was easy to do, but hellish difficulty awaits you from the middle and above.
“Just by looking at it, it looks like a very ominous place. “Are you saying there’s a book or sothing in here?”
“That is most likely.”
“I’m saying I’m not sure.”
“…huh.”
Pesis and 2 Chickens have not yet been able to obtain the final clue.
To figure out the exact point, you have to wait for that mont to co.
While I was there, there were a few things that needed to be resolved.
“Please stay alert inside and just follow behind . “If you touch anything carelessly, you’ll be in big trouble.”
Jinhyuk was at the forefront.
The rest of the mbers followed with anxious faces.
[Enter the labyrinth.]
The view has completely changed.
At that mont, the sound of inhaling air ca out of everyone’s mouths.
…It’s dreamy.
The heterogeneous yet beautiful sight I had never seen before was enough to break even the sharply built-up tension.
As we cautiously went a little deeper, living creatures began to appear one by one.
“Kirik?”
“Chwiiit.”
The colorful plants and animals were of a type I had never encountered before.
“Wow….”
“So cute.”
Ellis and Teresa’s eyes sparkled brightly.
Without realizing it, I tried to reach out my hand towards the fluffy rodent with white fur.
“Sleep…”
Before Jinhyuk could warn, the rodent’s eyes turned purple.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
A hook the size of a house protruded from its body.
The cute appearance is gone. Before I knew it, an ugly monster with countless teeth was drooling.
Quaaaang!
Kakakakang!
“Tsk!”
Cheon Yu-seong and Jin-hyuk quickly intervened.
The flying hook was blocked by the sword and bounced away.
“Aaaah!”
“Die Lord!”
Teresa and Ellis scread and spread the distance apart.
I’ve fought all kinds of terrible monsters, but this was the first ti that a cute monster turned into a monster in an instant.
The good news is that the rodent whose first attack was blocked did not attack anymore and scurried away.
“So I told you to be careful.”
Jinhyuk sighed deeply.
I thought to myself, this is what it would feel like to put disobedient kids in the water.
“I’m sorry. Mr. Jinhyuk.”
“Who knew this would happen? “They shook Jim’s heart!”
Still, this might be a good thing.
Since I experienced the heat in the beginning, I will be more careful in the future.
Anyway…
‘If an intruder ca in, there would have to be a reaction…’
Due to the nature of the labyrinth, there is a guard guarding the inside. Yomaganto also believes this, which is why it does not imdiately destroy the stairs.
It was much more advantageous to secure the Necronomicon than to destroy it.
Right then.
Ssssssssssssssssssssssssss…
I felt a faint presence nearby.
It was a change so subtle that you would never have noticed it unless you had encountered it several tis.
In fact, the rest of the mbers did not sense the discomfort they felt just now.
‘Eye of Gluttony’ has been activated.
Tiring!
The status window of the being among the plants blinked before Jinhyuk’s eyes.
[Common na gardener]
Copy conditions: An ancient gardener who is more proud of the beautiful garden he created than anyone else. If you destroy his perfect garden in an unusual way, you will be able to copy one of his unique spears, unique abilities, and skills. (The type and skill level of abilities that can be copied vary in proportion to the anger and despair the gardener feels.) Because
the entire thing was not completely identified, it was not clear exactly what abilities it had.
‘But I know the general idea, so I can check the details later.’
Exciting! Exciting!
For the first ti in a while, my heart was pounding happily.
An opportunity to obtain the abilities of a primordial being!
Now that the ‘Gardener’ has arrived, this is the mont when the true value of this labyrinth is revealed. At the sa ti, the ti to move cautiously is over.
In order to shake the gatekeeper of the mighty labyrinth, a ga full of provocation and fraud had to be started.
⁕⁕⁕
Sa ti.
A fierce battle was also taking place where Pesis and the 2 chickens were.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
Grumbling… Chiiik!
“Shhh!”
“Hiss!”
Snakes and lizards made of fire stuck out their tongues.
Originally, they were going to attack after collecting the Necronomicon, but Oryx’s intervention changed the original plan drastically.
The intention is to thoroughly prevent the Necronomicon from falling into the hands of the enemy, while excluding anything that poses even the slightest high risk.
“I’m almost there, but sohow I’m stuck here…”
Pesis stomped his foot in his seat.
The altar in front of you.
The purpose of coming here is sealed inside.
This ans that you are on the verge of obtaining a clue that you can obtain if you just take one more step forward.
“How can you not?”
“I’m not doing this because I like it. “Those snakes… they’re pretty annoying.”
2The chicken clicked its tongue.
They were changing the fla properties and individual characteristics by ‘manipulating the system’, but they were so nurous in number and so fast.
This ans that it is not easy to deal with them one by one.
2A blue light ford on the chicken’s hand.
“Keeeeee!”
“Keeee!”
Frost dust suddenly appeared on the snakes’ bodies covered in fireballs.
Sudden temperature difference.
Puff puff puff!
The bodies of the snakes that ca into range were unable to withstand and exploded.
I eliminated about ten with this.
But the remaining ones were still dozens of tis more nurous than that.
[Overload occurs due to excessive use of abilities.]
No matter how much the operator is, manipulating the system will result in a large backlash.
Thick! Thick!
2Cold sweat ran down the chicken’s cheeks.
“What makes feel worse is that we are not a top priority. How dare you do sothing else in front of ?”
As she said, the place where most of the snakes were gathered was near the altar.
Kukukukukuku!
Flas spewing from the snakes’ mouths.
A scorching heat engulfed the jar on the altar, but there was not even a single scorch on the surface of the jar.
The good news was that they didn’t know how to unseal the altar.
Pesis bit his lip.
‘We have to hurry.’
Even at this mont, his comrades are fighting, believing that he will complete the mission.
I had entrusted him with the most important task, but I couldn’t let him fall to such adversity.
“I can grab their attention at once. “In the anti, please unseal the altar and send a clue to player Jinhyeok Kang.”
“…what? Are you alone? “No matter what, it’s too dangerous.”
“I can’t help it. “Soone has to do it, and if Chicken 2 is having a hard ti, I have to do sothing.”
Pesis took out a flute made of old wood and shoes made of leaves from subspace. In addition, small daggers and various equipnt appeared one by one.
“You’re serious.”
“haha. “I need so help too.”
The risk is very high.
Maybe you have to risk your life.
Nevertheless, there are things in this world that must be tried.
[Relic ‘Great Climber’s Exploration Set’ is activated.]
[The set’s effect increases all stats by 20%!]
[Relic ‘Pied Piper’ is activated!]
[Relic ‘Enchanting’ ‘Fla’ was used!]
[Hypnosis and charm effects apply to fire attribute monsters.]
There is only one chance.
“Now!”
Pesis drew the attention of all enemies to himself.
“Anyway, this guy or that guy… don’t die!”
2The chicken moved in the opposite direction of the physiognomy.
***
Tower of Trials, 50th floor.
The gardener who manages the ‘Border Forest’ was literally responsible for managing all kinds of plants living on the 50th floor.
He has been in this job for countless years, and there has not been a single blemish on his proud career.
That has to be the case.
The invaders had specific habits. There was a corresponding response manual. Above all, it was because we had the experience and know-how to respond to all kinds of variables.
however.
‘…What are they doing?’
It was difficult to predict the identity of strangers who entered one’s territory.
A party that mixes humans, residents, vampires, spirits, and ancient species.
I’ve faced various types of combinations so far, but this is the first ti I’ve encountered an enemy this tough.
That alone was a headache, but it was only the beginning.
-Is this edible?
-Shall we try it first?
-okay. Should I die?
-Mosquitoy!
-Wow! Lord, I die. You can’t eat this. Really. – Oh, I don’t think this will work. Failure is failure. Next…
These are plants that make you tremble with fear and lose your senses just by encountering them.
Most of them were normal and should be avoided. For those with considerable skills, the only thing they could do was fight back.
but.
‘I’m eating rmaid.’
We fill our stomachs with a variety of recipes.
anwhile, Jinjo, who looked like a vampire, even his eyes were sparkling.
I can assure you that there was not a single team of guys who did such crazy things.
What on earth are these guys doing?
My curiosity doubled as I had no contact with anyone other than Nyarlathotep, whom I ca into contact with once every thousand years.
‘It’s even more confusing because the gap where the bran border is connected is on the side of Yotleam Canyon. What on earth is here? Did you crawl in? There won’t be any relics or items worth looking at.’
The ti and location of the labyrinths connected to the 50th floor are completely random.
Therefore, we have no choice but to ask directly why the intruders ca here.
It doesn’t matter though.
No matter what the enemy was, all he had to do was remain silent and carry out his given role.
‘I’ll make you regret it later. I ca here. Stupid idiots. Hehehe.’
The gardener was fiddling with two ters of rusty scissors and drooling.
There are all kinds of traps here that have been set over countless years.
If you gain montum just by hunting the plants at the beginning, you will hit the ground and regret it.
and.
The process of struggling in pain and abandoning colleagues to find a way to survive was the gardener’s greatest hobby.
