Episode 789 Reached
Shhh.
I put my finger to my mouth.
It’s not just .
The others also closed their mouths and focused on the sound.
The sound of a dog barking.
‘It ans that the King of Worshipers is nearby.’
It wasn’t far enough to hear the sound.
I wish you could make a sound one more ti.
‘Is he dead?’
I waited with bated breath, but there was no response.
I think he probably killed the monster as soon as he saw it.
-Kkiiing. Wow!
Just when I decided there was no need to wait any longer, I heard a deathly scream from the monster.
Short but high note.
The location is.
“Inner than here. “It seems a little to the left or above, right?”
“I heard sothing similar. “It may be a little different depending on the structure of the building, but it’s not far away.”
“hmm? left side? “Wasn’t it on the right?”
Not exact.
Just enough to make think it wouldn’t be far away.
As it was a sudden sound, each person gave their own guess.
It was rather confusing.
“Just wait a mont.”
We have experts.
Myler took out a notebook and quickly drew sothing.
“The sound was broken twice. A muffled sound was heard as if it had passed through a thick area. Umm. Nope. “Before that, the sounds overlapped and resonated.”
“…what?”
“It’s resonance. concert hall! “The starting point is a large-scale cavity or a theater-like space dug downwards.”
He mutters and doesn’t stop writing his pen.
The aura of an expert spread from his furrowed brow as if he was concentrating.
I haven’t even used any skills or powers right now.
Space and location are understood purely through accumulated technology.
“How can you know that just by listening?”
“It’s not even a skill. “Is this an expert?”
“That’s a great technique.”
The others found it strange as well, but did not interfere.
Indeed, the expedition leader.
At most, about 10 minutes had passed.
“good. That’s it. “It’s hard to figure out what the internal structure is, but we can know a few things.”
-Jiying.
A halo of light appeared on the notebook he opened and a hologram was shot into the air.
So kind of beam projector.
This is a good artifact to use for soone who has to explain a situation to several people.
“First of all, it’s deeper than here. Not upstairs. “You were mistaken because the sound went up and hit the ceiling.”
“Not upstairs?”
“okay. It’s below where we are. It is presud to be in a space that descends in steps. You may have to go up, but eventually you have to go down.”
Even though the access road is facing upwards, the place itself is located below.
Because we ca up from below.
“Are you saying there’s a path hidden deeper than here?”
“It’s very likely that’s what it looks like. I don’t know the detailed structure, but at least there is a passage that opens quickly. Because there was refraction. and.”
Knock knock.
Myler taps the notebook with a ballpoint pen and adds a drawing.
A door so small that you have to bend down to enter.
“There will be a small door at the entrance to the passage. The sound started in the middle and then stretched out. “I don’t know if it’s for people passing by or for so other purpose.”
It’s a small passage.
Isn’t that connected to the hole where the strange object entered?
For so reason, it seems like he ran towards the hole without even looking back and followed the fastest route possible.
In the end, the sll also flows along the gap.
For now, this alone is a sufficient achievent.
“wicket. “A cavity going down a sharp bend.”
All you have to do is go in the direction that has these three elents.
The King of Worshipers also didn’t receive any ssage, perhaps because he was confused by a strange entity he had never created.
“Let’s move.”
Mylar presses against the wall.
There is no passage where we are now.
The entire wall was just made of dirt and stones.
It was decorated quite well and the location of the door was obscured.
“Here it is.”
-Grumbling.
Mylar, who was feeling the flow of air by pressing his body close, hit a corner of the wall and it collapsed, revealing a passage.
A passageway where the soil is exposed without any special finishing.
“I don’t think it’s the right path from here.”
“I guess this was the last building designed.”
Perhaps it was made to be used when traveling secretly.
In other words, it ans that we are close to where it is hiding.
It seems like there are no traps anymore.
The only thing that is a threat is.
[The conceptual illusion is shaking.]
This is the extent of the conceptual illusion he is using.
The once empty passageway suddenly changed and turned into a fancy ballroom.
“Follow and co straight.”
[The SSS level power, Eye that Watches the Stars, is exercised!]
[Conceptual half-bone blows at the illusion.]
It doesn’t work on .
From here on, it’s my turn to step forward.
The aningless things disappear and the raw appearance cos into view.
‘Little by little, things are starting to co together.’
Although there was no finishing treatnt at the beginning of the passage, little by little traces of artificiality were revealed.
One of the surprising parts is.
“There are traces of human habitation.”
Unlike the huge palace, you can see a small kitchen and simple furniture.
The scenery is so small that it is difficult to think that the king of worshipers is staying there.
Although it was quite large, it was undeniable that it was shabby.
‘This is the hole where the strange thing entered.’
There was a hole there.
Isn’t it a passage for disposing of all kinds of waste, including trash?
It seems to be connected to the sewer as well.
What can I say? It’s rough, but it feels like it has all the facilities necessary for people to live?
‘Is it okay to lock soone up and raise them? Or animals?’
I don’t know why livestock are raised inside the building.
Perhaps the traps encountered above were placed not to protect the worshipers themselves, but to protect sothing hidden here.
‘It was a bit strange.’
Even if the King of Worshipers was well-prepared, it was unlikely that he would have created all these traps in such a short period of ti.
Rather than that.
“The road divides.”
A dark passageway with no lights.
I stood in the middle of a road extending on both sides.
Should I go one by one?
I don’t want to waste ti here.
‘I’ll try to follow what Myler did.’
I may not be able to do as well as I have been practicing for a long ti, but I can hear sounds well.
-Paak.
I scratched the floor.
A large stone ca into my hand.
-Whoop!
-Hwiik!
He threw it into both aisles.
– Tonguing.
-Tagang! bang! bang!
The sound you hear is completely different.
The rock thrown to the left hit sowhere and made a rolling sound.
A sound that is possible when the passage is straight.
On the other hand, the right one.
‘It’s short and curved.’
There was the sound of hitting sothing faster, followed by the sound of thrown stones hitting the wall one after another.
There is a high possibility that there will be a curve on the road.
As if I wasn’t the only one who felt that way, Mylar also reacted.
“oh. “That sound just now.”
“I guess the right side is bent, Mylar?”
“I guess so. “We’d better go that way.”
Although the vision is dizzy due to the illusions planted by the King of Worshipers, the ears are open.
After receiving Myler’s confirmation, I took a step forward.
Sure enough, a staircase appeared that turned left and went up.
“This was it.”
A structure of the sa type as Myler had guessed.
It ca in correctly.
-Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.
Its presence beca even stronger.
What I feel at the sa ti.
“Rotten teeth?”
“Uhm. “I don’t think it slls completely rotten or spoiled.”
“It’s subtle. “It slls like old waste or excrent.”
It was a bad sll.
It was noticeable that scented candles were lit occasionally, but it didn’t an much.
The further you step, the worse the sll becos.
“Wait a mont. “There might be a trap behind the door.”
I saw a door at the end of the stairs.
It is a narrow door.
A height of about 1m at most.
A large embossed pattern above the door catches the eye.
The shape of a large tower. What that ans is.
‘The mark of the worshiper.’
It’s the sa as the picture on their identification badge.
What is your intention?
Are you saying that everyone who sees the tower should bow down and co in?
I feel strangely bad.
Things like this.
‘I have to destroy it.’
I took a stance.
I pulled my body tight enough to run at any ti and made a run for it.
-Quaaaang!
It was pushed straight into the body.
I didn’t know that there might be explosives or a magic circle behind the door, but if it’s a trap like that, it’s okay.
-Kugugugugugung!
-Kwagwagwagwang!
Sure enough, as soon as you enter, an explosion occurs.
Perhaps it was made with intention, but the impact was greater than expected.
of course.
[Iron Will (SS) Lv.MAX]
[Steel Body (SS) Lv.MAX]
[Physical Attack Resistance (SSS) Lv.MAX]
[Magic Nullification (S) Lv.MAX]
[Fire Resistance (SSS) Lv. .MAX]
It was worth it.
“Oh dust. Everyone co in. Because everything that exploded exploded.”
He waved his hands and took a step forward.
Have you decided that further sabotage is aningless?
[The conceptual illusion is recovered.]
He cleared away the illusion, and we were able to see the scenery without lies.
A huge concert hall.
Or a landscape like the ancient Colosseum.
In a building so large that it felt vast, worshipers were sitting in the audience, with their heads down and their hands clasped in prayer.
No, if you look closely, there are not only worshipers but also strange entities mixed in.
Half of them were corpses, dripping with blood and sewage, and so of them had been turning white for a long ti.
“What is this?”
“Wow. “I guess this is where the sll ca from.”
“Half of them are corpses. “What on earth are you doing?”
The cause of the bad sll coming from the stairs was clearly revealed.
A sight that makes you frown.
Did they at least perform a pseudo-religious ceremony?
A strange and grotesque scene unfolds on an enormous scale.
I got goosebumps.
‘Even if we can’t do it, it’s over 30,000 people.’
It’s a crazy number.
The number of worshipers fighting outside was also great, but there are so many of them here.
It makes absolutely no sense.
The tower issues trials to give climbers a chance.
The higher you go, the more climbers there are, and the more NPCs that can cooperate are placed on the trunk.
There are limits to that, but 30,000 people is impossible.
For a mont, I was frozen in an unexpected sight.
“You ca here at last.”
Bedrok Baaluze, the king of worshipers standing in the center of the stage, opened his mouth.
A cracked voice rang out.
“It seems like you couldn’t survive the system restrictions either.”
His condition was not good.
The presence and confusion he was emitting imdiately beca insignificant compared to the beginning.
As if he had been hit internally, concepts flowed out in the form of letters from all over his body.
-Ssssss.
Still, it’s ugly.
Even though there was no energy to fill the space, the pressure did not lessen.
Rather, it feels more dangerous.
Did they say that a mouse in danger bites a cat?
So what does a wild animal in danger feel like?
‘It’s sharp.’
Unrefined aggression and madness have beco a blade in themselves.
The forged montum even had physical power and touched the skin.
It stings.
It’s like that just by looking at each other.
“It’s a limitation of the system. “If I wanted to hide, I could have hidden.”
He looked at .
“Just like the bug that approached you did.”
Throw it away.
That must be referring to Heiden.
however.
“You lost to Haiden, right?”
I know.
That he was defeated by Haiden.
Because of that, he was given the title of Irregular.
I raised the corners of my mouth and smiled.
“…He gave three lives.”
“And it’s not that you didn’t hide because of the system’s restrictions, it’s that you couldn’t hide, right? “You can’t hide because you made a deal with Top.”
Pop.
The guy closed his mouth.
Even if I don’t say it, I know that the fever has risen.
The guy with his crumpled face stretched out his hand.
“As expected, you are cocky.”
Tick.
There was a sound of sothing catching.
“I have to pay for daring to say sothing like that.”
He clenched his fist as he declared.
-Puhuaaaaaaa!
Blood spurted from my side.
