I'm a max level newbie - episode 223
223fury. citadel of giants (2)
The place where Ellis and T-Bone headed was the imperial formation..
As an empire boasting enormous wealth, it had thousands of infantry troops stationed in the valley below, as well as knights, including Titans..
"ha… … It's really far away. Even that sea anemone thing. How can you send me here just because I made one mistake? You think this makes sense based on common sense?"
Ellis took a deep breath..
A tone full of irritation.
5Because we moved so close to time, fatigue was at its peak..
"Rattling. I also share the same thoughts as Lady Master.."
"Lady Master? I?"
"yes. Aren’t you the Master’s mistress??"
"hostess……."
Ellis pondered those words slowly..
"Hmm big! I've been called by many titles, but it doesn't sound too bad. Well, an elegant being like me needs a title to match.."
"Well, when it comes to elegance, I think the person called the saint is a little higher. I am also looking into the people around me through the Master, and the one for whom the word elegant is appropriate is that person.……."
"hey……."
"yes?"
"Would you like me to boil it with gomtang? I think the soup will come out very thick because the bones are made of conch.?"
Ellis gradually increased his magic power..
Cuckoo cuckoo!
Fist-sized red blood droplets began to slowly rotate around T-Bone..
"……Well, compared to Lady Master, there is no comparison, regardless of whether she is a saint or not. Rattling. rattle."
"okay. I'm glad I realized it now."
Ellis, who had raised her arrogant nose, dissipated the magic she had gathered..
And as if feeling a little relieved, he hummed a tune and walked towards the barracks where the main army of the empire was gathered..
Of course, I didn't forget to wear a mask symbolizing the Unknown..
In this case, Ellis was just Unknown's double..
***
There was a minor incident with the guards guarding the entrance, but Ellis completed the job peacefully..
The place we arrived at was the personal tent of the nobleman appointed as commander-in-chief of this expedition..
"……so. The barrier around the giants' fortress will be weakened tomorrow night, so aim for that time. Is this what you mean??"
A henchman sent by Duke Beinsteln..
Count Hobier.
He was a man of impressive stature, with a double chin and a golden mustache..
Chewing on the whole chicken laid out on the table is even more impressive..
"that's right. It would be better to hurry if you don't want the players to be taken away by the Murim guys. It seemed like they also noticed the barrier.."
"It's a barrier……."
Javier stroked his beard..
It was a story that smelled bad in many ways, but I couldn't just ignore it..
This is because the dance that the masked opponent showed on the castle wall against the giants was so amazing..
'The person named Kang Jin-hyuk was difficult to deal with, so the duke even told him to keep his distance from him. Interest is not yet properly understood..'
What kind of tendency do you have?.
Or, is there room for conciliation?.
I mean no one has ever thought about it.
'If I can embrace it…….'
if so.
The accomplishment of recruiting a great mage could be recognized as greatly as acquiring the giants' fortress..
No matter what anyone says, aren't wizards the ones who boast the best firepower in long-distance combat??
As it was a high-quality force that was in charge of the three axes of the empire along with knights and titans, its value could not be measured in terms of numbers..
'Even if the opponent makes a trick, if we have the trump card we have prepared, we can prepare for any number of variables..'
The worries didn't last long.
"I'll be grateful for any information about the citadel. by the way. I heard that you are with a man named Kang Jin-hyuk. Is that true??"
"that's right. We are helping each other out. I've become grumpy these days, but."
"Hmm. That's kind of weird.."
"What's strange??"
As Ellis tilted his head, Javier continued speaking as if he had been waiting..
"I don't know why I'm with him, but there must be a limit to the price one player can offer. Moreover, why is there any need for a great great mage like you to be tied down to just one individual??"
Javier indirectly emphasized that the empire had much to offer..
If you lift the other person up and at the same time let them know that there is a brighter future..
It will definitely come over.
'How dare you reject our offer??'
And at that very moment.
"If I'm with you, I can make my wish come true.?"
The long-awaited answer flowed from the other person's mouth..
This has passed.
"Of course. Whatever you wish for, we will make it happen."
Javier proudly puffed out his chest..
however.
"It's impossible."
Ellis shook his head quietly..
"What does that mean? It's impossible."
"You can never make my wish come true. ah… … . Don't hurt your pride. Because it's not just you, it's the same for everyone else.."
"…… It's amazing. You may not know the extent of our capabilities, but we are the largest force in the middle layer of the tower. It's an empire."
"You guys don’t even know what I want, do you? I'll say it again, it's too much for you."
"So, does this mean that a person named Kang Jin-hyuk is possible? That only one person can achieve what we cannot do.?"
Numerous troops and abundant territory.
And the great empire built on that foundation.
Is it even possible to put that overwhelming force and a single human being on the same scale??
but.
Ellis answered with more confidence than ever before..
"Even if I could get all of you together, I wouldn't even be able to reach his toes.."
The strongest and worst ranker.
A player who quietly moves upward without losing confidence at any moment..
"If there is someone in this tower who can make my wish come true……."
A calm smile appeared on Alice's lips..
"That's just one guy."
***
Time passed quickly.
Let’s get closer to the time Jinhyuk predicted..
The formations of both the Empire and Murim were on full alert..
This is because, as Wolyoung and Ellis said, we had to check whether the castle's barrier was really weakened..
-This time, I will definitely rip off that damn giant king’s head and take over his base..
- Before the Heavenly Demon Church completely emerges, the empire must be erased from the map. Only then can you have a chance of winning the fight against the Heavenly Demon..
Everyone has different thoughts.
I waited for midnight to come.
And the moment the full moon rises completely.
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
The transparent membrane around the castle began to shake slightly..
It's definitely true.
Something strange has happened in the barrier..
"Send in the Titans! We will find out which curse has been dismantled and then send our main force immediately.!"
Hoveir screamed at the top of his lungs..
"Each major lord should organize a separate unit focusing on the peak level. If you can solve the barrier, you will be able to capture the fortress within half a day.."
Baek Seol-lin and Nam Gung-cheon also quickly assessed the situation and made a decision..
A huge war cloud fell over the forest that had been immersed in silence..
***
same time.
Jinhyuk headed to the giants' fortress alone..
As I entered the barrier, a strange sense of discomfort gripped my entire body..
[You fall into a status abnormality!]
[The senses from front to back, left to right, and left to right are distorted..]
[7Some parts of the curse were not activated due to the star barrier 'magic gap'.]
[If you go deep inside, there is a risk of additional curses stacking up..]
I thought I was going to die because I was drawing a barrier to weaken 'Paradise Lost' all day yesterday..
Aside from the lack of time and materials,.
12This is because it was very difficult to find a gap in the star barrier..
'I guess the curse that was dismantled is a curse whose skills are activated randomly..'
It was a little disappointing that we could not prevent the most difficult curse, the sensory distortion of the front, back, left, and right.…….
Does not matter.
Anyway, this alone will be enough bait to catch Empire and Wulin..
Jinhyuk tapped the calf of the giant in front of him..
"You know, right? If you do something like call the guards by telling a false password,……."
"Well, don't worry."
"Don't worry. If that happens, your Junior II will never be able to be used again.."
"……."
The giant's awkward gait is unusual..
There must have been a serious hit in an area that shouldn't have been hit..
"Techriosh."
A deep, low voice rang out..
A secret route that can only be opened through the mouths of giants.
Just for this purpose, I captured a giant who was scouting around yesterday..
Cuckoo cuckoo!
In a part of the fortress that was hundreds of meters high, a gap was created that could barely fit a giant..
Indeed, this is why inside information is best..
"Me, I… … I've done everything I had to do. I'll leave now."
The giant slowly took a step back..
"Umm. I'm sorry, but that might be a bit difficult. Because I am careful not to leave any regrets behind.."
"Oh, no way, I did it this way. Are you trying to kill me??"
"You are a giant and I am a human. It's natural for a relationship to kill and kill in the first place. Above all, I plan to report this to the security forces as soon as I get inside.?"
Giving and receiving affection is only possible with someone worthy of it..
Not people like you who can stab me in the back at any time..
"Hee hee hee hee!"
The giant, terrified, tried to run away with his back exposed..
Even now, I tried to yell and warn my colleagues..
but.
So so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so such!
I couldn't say anything from my vocal cords that instantly froze..
"It's a rather elegant statue.."
Jinhyuk muttered while looking at the 7m-sized block of ice..
The sense of front, back, left and right was distorted, but there were no flaws in the glacial sculpture..
As if that kind of limitation was nothing..
right then.
Cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure!
thud! thud! thud!
I felt a fairly heavy vibration..
"enemy… … am!"
"Humans are coming in droves.!"
"Tell the king. Enemies are coming!"
A harsh shout penetrated my eardrums half a beat late..
……Finally, the two forces took the bait..
Empire, martial arts, and even giants.
The pieces on the chessboard began to move in earnest..
'I have to hurry too..'
Jinhyuk walked somewhat awkwardly..
Looks like it still needs some more time to adapt..
Jeopuk.
How long has it been since I walked down the aisle like that??
The pitch-black vision seemed to become brighter little by little, and soon a blinding brilliance erupted..
Garden full of golden roses.
And the white tree rising in the middle of it.
The scene could not help but arouse admiration, as if it represented the final paradise lost in the apocalypse..
however.
Even amidst that breathtaking beauty, Jinhyeok’s expression was stiff..
creepy…….
My whole body felt extremely hot..
My nerves burned and I could feel the flow of each cell..
Even if no one else knew, Jinhyuk knew..
How dangerous it is to stand in front of this tree.
[Coin exchange opens.]
In that case, all that's left is to take the bare minimum of defense..
Jinhyuk quickly looked through the items in the exchange..
among these…….
……We need to find the hidden piece that will help us overcome this challenge..
