Only I Level Up: Ragnarok Episode 124
[Your level has risen!]
[Your level has risen!]
…….
Suho continued to advance into the Echo Forest, ruthlessly destroying the endless ice golems..
[Clear a path! Keep pushing!]
[Bring the mace of death to all cursed tribes that block the path of the Little Lord.!]
With Quay taking the lead and Ver supporting, Guardian's Shadow Corps moved forward without hesitation..
Even if the ice golems that persistently block the path continue to regenerate,.
At this rate, even if it means walking into the middle of enemy territory on my own,.
‘If there is a mother in front of me!’
Suho never stopped marching.
“Break through!”
[Sooooo!]
A fierce battle where people kill each other fiercely, die, and respawn endlessly..
And instead of hiding behind the soldiers, we see the back of Su-ho, who destroys and crushes the golems ahead of anyone else.…….
‘……oh my god.’
Sirka was watching with an expression of astonishment..
‘Is this Chacha's son?.’
If Cha Hae-in's battle was like watching a beautiful dance, Su-ho's battle was truly a storm..
In the center of the storm, he was crushing the bodies of enemies bigger than himself..
That's it!
Even the shadow soldiers did not lose..
A brutal hand-to-hand combat led by two shadow minotaurs..
The overwhelming violence emanating from that strong body.!
Let’s add Ber’s support to it.…….
[Verga uses ‘Skill: Harsh Command’.]
[‘Skill: ‘Tough Command’ increases the stats of beast-type shadow soldiers by 50%..]
[‘As a side effect of 'Skill: Harsh Command', beast-type shadow soldiers are cursed with madness..]
[Whoa whoa!]
Mino and Tau, who turned into berserkers themselves, went completely berserk..
It started swinging its bulging, muscular arms at random, destroying not only the ice golems but also the forest itself..
Kwasik! Took bang!
Ku-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwaang.!
To put it mildly, the ice golems looked pitiful..
‘But the real thing starts now.’
Sirka warned Suho..
“From here is the Echo Forest! And from now on……!”
Before the words were finished, a huge number of ice arrows began attacking the shadow soldiers in the forest..
Shoo shoo shoo shoo shoo shoo shoo shoo shoo shoo shoo shoo shoo shoo shoo!
“……!”
At that sight, Lee Chae appeared in Suho’s eyes..
The bodies of the soldiers hit by the arrows immediately froze..
And, damn it!
It turned into a piece of ice and shattered on the spot..
Suho turned his gaze and found the guys who shot the arrows..
Above the densely growing trees of the Echo Forest, familiar figures were aiming their bowstrings in this direction..
“ice elf?”
“no! They are……!”
Sirka opened her mouth with an expression filled with complicated feelings..
“……These are members of our tribe whose hearts were eaten by the spirits of the Echo Forest..”
‘Oh, that's it..’
Suho recalled the story the ice elves told him in the village about the Echo Forest..
The Echo Forest was a forbidden land where even ice elves could not escape alive once they entered it..
That's the reason.
‘Is that what it means to be possessed by a spirit?.’
Suho deflected their arrows with his sword and quickly looked at their appearance..
White ghosts aiming bows on dense tree branches.
There was no focus in their eyes, and what was felt in those empty eyes was pure madness itself..
Moreover, their bodies were half-frozen, and even if their bodies were torn or cut by the shadow soldiers' counterattack, a cold snowstorm flew in from somewhere and reconnected the wounds..
No, more accurately, it was ‘frozen’..
“It's similar to an ice golem..”
“To be exact... … They're the same guys.”
Suho nodded at Sirca’s seemingly distraught answer..
[ice golem]
[ice golem]
…….
As Sirka explained, the ice elves who were said to be possessed by the spirit had name tags ‘Ice Golem’ on their heads..
And as proof of that, the longer the battle continues,.
The more ice clings to their wounds and regenerates,.
Gradually, their appearance was gradually changing from that of an ice elf to that of an ice golem..
If the golems outside the forest were created by spirits dwelling in a blizzard, the golems here were spirits inhabiting the corpses of ice elves who died in the Echo Forest..
However, seeing them skillfully shooting arrows using the skills they had acquired even after their deaths, Suho suddenly realized something..
“Were these the ones who shot the arrows in the first place??”
The ice golems that collapsed the ground and caused him to fall here..
Just before those guys showed up, it seemed like these guys were the ones who attacked us by shooting arrows first..
Basically, they were on the same side..
‘……That means there is another gate leading outside somewhere in this echo forest..’
There was no way these guys flew through the sky and came to Earth, so there was another passage..
“Me, I'm here now.”
Sirka, who had been following Suho until now, suddenly hesitated and spoke..
“I want to follow further, but if I go any further into the forest, I too will be possessed by spirits like that..”
At those words, Suho looked at Sirka..
In this sensory-disrupting snowstorm, Sirka was a very pleasant guide, so I wanted to keep taking him with me..
“There is no way to stop the spirits?”
“Almost none. Basically, our tribe and the spirits here have a high affinity. So, if the spirits decide to target me, there is almost no way to protect my spirit..”
“What I mean is that there are almost none.?”
“Umm. That's actually…….”
“……?”
Suho suddenly looked puzzled when Sirka looked at him..
“I'm asking just in case, that fur coat..”
“Fur clothes? Ah, this?”
“huh. That's Ice Bear's fur.?”
“ah. that's right.”
When Suho nodded, Sirka hesitated and opened her mouth..
“actually… … Ice spirits don't get along well with Ice Bear. So if I wear that fur coat, the spirits won't come close to me..”
“Ah, it was something like that.?”
“ah! Of course, I definitely don’t mean to ask for those clothes! Ice Bear's skin is a symbol of a warrior. I know how important that suit was to the hero who killed Ice Bear.…….”
Jiggle.
[‘Item: Purchased ‘Ice Bear’s Robe’.]
“Come on, put it on.”
“……!”
Suddenly, a new fur coat appeared in Suho's hand, and an overwhelming emotion filled Sirka's widened eyes..
“you you… … ! He was a really good guy.!”
“Hurry up and put it on. I can't see you're busy right now?”
Meanwhile, a huge rain of arrows was falling from all directions..
As Sirka quickly packed up her fur clothes, Suho immediately opened his inventory and changed items..
Coincidentally, there were two ‘bows’ in his inventory prepared for the glacier dungeon..
One is a grand palace purchased with Lio Xing’s corporate card..
And the second bow was a pretty great item that Lim Tae-gyu, leader of the Reaper Guild, lent it to me..
[Reaper's Bow (replica))]
Difficulty of acquisition: A
Type: Bow
offense power +90
It is a manufactured product modeled after the ‘Reaper’s Bow (S)’, the symbol of the Reaper Guild..
Although its attack power is not outstanding compared to its grade, the cohesion of magic arrows is very excellent, amplifying the effect of archer skills by 3 times..
……Of course, this was an item that Suho did not really need..
In the first place, Guardian did not concentrate mana to create magic arrows like typical archer hunters, but simply turned shadow soldiers into arrows and fired them..
But you never know what might happen in the dungeon, so if they give it to you for free, shouldn't you take it unconditionally?.
‘It's a good thing I accepted it..’
Su-ho held in his hand the great bow that Rio Sing had bought him, and quickly handed the remaining one, the 'Reaper's Bow (replica)', to Sirka..
“Now, I'll lend you this too, so you can fight from now on..”
“……!”
Then, Sirka's expression was several times more shocked than when she received the fur coat..
“What, what? You're giving me such a nice bow?!”
“No, I said I was lending it. It's not mine either.”
“Thank you so much! I'll work really hard!”
I knew right away what hard work meant..
Sirka's mood immediately changed as she politely accepted the replica Reaper's bow with both hands..
If Ber's harsh command drives beast-type demons crazy, a good bow makes archers crazy..
Shwaaaaagh-!
At that moment, a huge concentration of magical power swirled from Sirka's bow, and immediately six arrows of magical energy were created..
“This is it?!”
Sirka, who could usually only make two magical arrows at the same time, felt an overwhelming emotion..
And when I let go of the bowstring, six magic arrows flew at incredible speed and intercepted the enemy arrows flying in this direction..
Damn it!
The arrows that hit each other in the air turned into ice powder and flew away..
“Just trust me and follow me! I will continue to guide you to a place where Cha Cha can be found.!”
Sirka became confident again and took the lead in Suho..
But then.
“Move.”
Feeling a chill for a moment, Sirka quickly turned around and her pupils dilated greatly..
At that place……
Kuwaaaa!
There was a figure of Guardian carrying a black arrow with tremendous force on his great bow..
“Come and stir as much as you want, Quay..”
Kwaoooo-!
At that moment, a ray of black lightning flew through the white snowstorm..
“oh my god.”
Sirka was astonished..
The black arrow that Su-ho shot was literally a thunderbolt, and as if it had eyes, it freely changed direction in zigzags instead of straight lines and passed through the bodies of the enemies..
Kwajangchang!
The ice elves hit by the lightning began to shatter into pieces, like ice statues breaking..
At that moment, I saw it in Sirka’s eyes..
The spirits of the Echo Forest disappear like smoke from the broken and collapsing bodies of the ice elves..
And as if waiting for this moment, the new spirits coming to take over the empty body again..
However, it was Suho who also felt the presence of those spirits..
“It can't be taken away.”
The ice golems I've encountered so far were nothing more than chunks of ice without a body..
However, these guys were still corpses with some body remaining..
There was still a chance before the body was taken back by the spirits..
[This is a target for which shadow extraction is possible..]
[This is a target for which shadow extraction is possible..]
[This is a target for which shadow extraction is possible..]
…….
Smirk.
Suho quickly sent several shadow kobolds back to nothing and created an empty slot..
And before those precious corpses are taken away by the spirits..
“wake up.”
I intercepted it from here first..
That moment.
Shuhuaaaaaaaaa!
Black shadows began to swirl up from the bodies that were shattered like ice cubes..
[Shadow extraction was successful.]
[Shadow extraction was successful.]
