Kingdom ? Lv. 1320 King of Northern Slums (2)
As you say, you need a lot of plans.
I thoroughly researched the ranker, King of the North.
No, I didn’t really need to investigate that thoroughly.
He was a guy who didn’t want to hide himself much.
The rule of the slums is usually based on fear, because there are rumors of what great skill he has to give fear.
The Guild Masters of the Northern Hospital District under him were also helpful.
There is not a single person who is trying to keep their loyalty and hide something.
How can such people be in a slum?
The exiles who were pushed to the slum in the first place may say that they lived a hard life in their own way, but they are not good guys.
This is not about humanity.
I’m talking purely about my ability as an exile.
Those who are crazy about strength do not form organizations. Even if he organizes it, he does not become the leader himself.
This is because the more responsibility you have, the farther you are from strength.
King of the slum is a title that exists in any episode, but usually those who have it are those who have settled down to some extent.
Even if you’re a ranker, that doesn’t change.
I just got there because I had some talent.
“Mister Mayer said he was ranked 967th. If you fight now, will you be able to win?”
“Is it that easy?”
“It’s not that easy. You’re too strong.”
“Hehe, is that so?”
The most important thing in the labyrinth is ‘skill’, and after that, ‘birth’ includes basic stats, etc., and then ‘stats’ of the mind map.
The 3 stats of Himminji, which rise after becoming an exile, certainly grants a significant amount of power.
However, it does not go beyond the limits of each race.
As a human race, no matter how high their strength stats are, they cannot win an arm wrestling with an ordinary giant.
Due to the limitations of the race itself, the power to be strengthened gradually decreases in efficiency.
‘Birth’ dramatically changes the limit of its efficiency, and ‘skill’ is a contextless superpower that transcends everything.
For example, the [Blood Lord] I have is a [Unique Skill] that can only be accumulated enough stats and skills to acquire.
However, even if only one [Blood Lord] was given to me without any correction, I would be able to destroy Hard Throk by myself.
Skills are a job in that area.
“I don’t think unique skills are necessarily strong?”
“This unique means ‘one and only’, not unique on rare. It’s strong to some extent, but not unconditionally strong.”
“If it’s the only unique thing, you’re saying that [Blood Lord] is only owned by you in this episode?”
“It’s like that among the exiles. NPCs also have duplicate unique skills.”
The little boy who had been following us in stride raises his head.
“Dad! Can I have a skill too?”
“On a limited basis, if you have a feat worthy of it, or if you have a good pedigree. Or just a natural talent.”
“…do I already have any skills?”
“Probably so. Let’s check it out when our Goddess Temple is built.”
Usually, the skill given to the random NPC of the Barbaroi clan is [Super Mage] a simple yet powerful unique skill.
If you have this, your magical talent will be amplified.
Through the correction of the labyrinth, the understanding of magic is forcibly deepened, and the correction depends on the sensitivity.
It’s not an active skill, but instead, it’s a kind of skill that has a strong passive.
In other words, if you have the ability to implement it yourself, like me, you don’t even need it.
In the distant past, I had learned it to increase my understanding of magic.
Because there was no other way than magic, in the beginning, he was active as a pure wizard.
“Slowly, you should also look at the unique skill angle.”
“Can I have one of those?”
“No, you can have it as a duplicate, but after one pops up, the probability drops extremely from the next one.”
“It’s a strange balance.”
“The luck of the labyrinth has a tendency to remain as a controllable variable. If you understand this, living as an exile will become easier.”
“A controllable variable… it works as less irrationally as possible.”
“It’s closer to pretending to be like that, but…”
Even if there is a correction in consideration of fairness in luck, it is luck in the end.
It’s just a minimum safety device that prevents the game from being thrown.
The skill of the planner is exerting its power even after it becomes a reality.
“Can we win over there?”
Because the Goddess informed me, I know that the king of the north has started attacking the slum side.
“If you’re a top-notch ranker, you’d have to think of him as someone who’s done it. Do you remember the fairy wizard? It’s probably about the same as that yangban.”
Although the Fairy Wizard did not level through [Lift], he spent 1,000 years on the server as it is.
Then you reach the realm that can be called a ranker.
It is not a coincidence that [Time Stop] was launched as a skill, and should not be regarded as an aim by knowing at least how to float it.
“I think that’s enough to win now.”
It is almost impossible for a wizard to catch an exile who is originally an angel. But I decided not to say it.
“Sometimes, a guy who becomes a ranker with just time is not worth the level. But the top rankers create a fantasy.”
“Is it horror marketing?”
marketing? That doesn’t seem like it.
“Anyway, what exiles lack the most is always information. Even if there are several, there are very few guys who would risk their lives for information.”
Even that would be a futile waste of life if there was no trick.
“Do you know anything?”
“Not anything, only what you know.”
With such a conversation, we reached the Manshinjeon.
The janitor of the pantheon, a rabbit-eared leaf fairy girl welcomes you.

Time stop through power has a long cooldown.
Instead, it is done in a more complete, neater, and obscure way.
It is natural because it is a power that [God of Time] directly grants. Even the most complete and secretive [Stop Time] cannot catch up with God’s power.
So, of course, the king of the north did not recognize Remy’s time stop at first.
It was a complete surprise, and it was the result of not even dreaming that the opponent was a devotee of time.
Remy looked at the frozen gray landscape and took action quickly.
It is forbidden to be vigilant.
You may be late for recognition, but you will eventually do it.
He said that the longer the pause time, the stronger the warning to the opponent.
Not to mention, the opponent is a level 1,000 or higher monster. A warrior class ranker famous for being strong.
In this battle, I had to inflict as much damage as possible at the timing of [Time Stop], which could not be used again.
Approaching an angel who has fallen to the ground and consumes golden divinity.
They are consuming the basic faith given to them by becoming a believer.
It is a pity to consume such a powerful but difficult-to-refill faith like this… … .
It is understandable considering the benefits that her organization and the Church of Chaos will reap by spreading the fact that she has captured a ranker.
At least, her leader wasn’t someone who forced someone to make unilateral sacrifices.
An angel who had been dyed with achromatic colors is imbued with color. Due to the strong impact, [Brazed] was canceled.
The blurred reason returns and the angel recognizes the situation.
“Did it go as planned?”
“Time stops as soon as the rampage is released. That’s great.”
The act of inviting others as possible because of the power of God.
Remy once again felt the morale of the power of substitute.
Older angels are not surprised by such things. Instead, I quickly checked the condition of my body.
The ranker’s blows are not easy to withstand even in a rampant state. If it wasn’t for the overwhelming durability of the angel race, he might have already died.
There are minor injuries, but they are not serious. First of all, I had to pull out the body that was stuck on the floor.
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Just one sip of the healing potion.“Ugh!”
It took me a long time to pull the floor off and stand up.
“I don’t have time! Hurry up!”
The angel raised his sword.
Several lieutenant skills derived from [Strike] are mobilized.
The core [Brenzy] is a cooldown, but even without it, Berserker is strong enough.
The downside of the time stop is that you cannot check the damage the opponent will receive.
The angel’s strength is obviously strong, but there is also a limit of 200 levels.
The lower the level, the fewer passives stacked, and the lower the simple strength value.
‘Attack power’ correction is lowered. Can you inflict a fatal blow to a warrior armed with hard armor and gear?
In addition, the special environment of time stop applies all physical blows again at the moment when time passes.
A defensive passive that absorbs a momentary blow is common for warriors, and most of it can be absorbed.
Whatever the case, you need to accumulate as much damage as possible now.
Remy also cast magic.

I turned my head.
“Why Gran?”
A girl about fifteen with bunny ears looks at me.
The innocent expression goes well with the white dress, but the manager of the Manshinjeon is not a comfortable place.
The strength he possesses will be at the top of the ranks.
Otherwise, the gods would not have entrusted the management of such an important place.
“Time stopped over there.”
At that, the girl who revealed her name as Kiri tilts her head.
He looked in the same direction as me, then tilted again, narrowed his eyes and said:
“How do you detect that here. If you lie, you won’t get hit.”
“Yeah. Don’t do that.”
“You have a bad way of talking.”
I smiled and started following Kiri.
The rabbit’s ears pricked up and guided me to the center of the Manshinjeon Hall.
No one accepts it.
There is a god waiting for me, so I am guided by that order.
The party members had to wait outside.
Most gods only care about me.
On the way, I thought about the result of the [time stop] felt in the direction where Remy was going.
The king of the north is Jolbo, who has not become a challenger.
It is said that he has not been seen at all recently leaving for leveling and farming through the lift.
He was content and content with winning the title of ranker.
It is a common tendency in the labyrinth, and the mind map set by a guy with such a tendency is also somewhat obvious.
The skillset that he proudly shows off, his mean and violent personality, and the skillset that can be inferred from it are extremely defensive.
The unique skill is [King of the Beasts].
In terms of performance, it is similar to the [Primal Power] possessed by the God of War, but the overall performance is lower than that of the active attack aircraft.
It’s okay, but it’s a decent unique skill that’s only level B.
Perhaps it was a skill that was barely reached by turning around and around without knowing how to get it clearly.
And the king of the north must have thought.
Now that I’ve chosen an aggressive unique skill, I’ll just paint the rest with tanks.
Well, if you’re thinking of living in a slum, you’re right.
The setting for it is also obvious.
In general, there are various defense skills of the warrior system that are well known among the exiles.
In addition to the assassination countermeasure skill [Auto Guard] used in Provence, [Guardian] that negates large damage to death for 0.1 seconds, [Expanded Armor] that applies the armor’s defense to exposed parts of the armor, etc.
They are all famous for their high efficiency compared to the difficulty level to acquire, and these are skills that you must have if you are a ranker.
Based on that, let’s guess the skills that the [King of the Beasts] will naturally have in the garden environment.
The tricky one is [Resurrection].
A skill that will always come up after [King of the Beasts] appears on the mind map where agility is minimized and only power runs.
Initially, the conditions are very similar to those of [King of the Beasts].
It’s disposable, but there’s a good chance it hasn’t died yet. Then you have to kill it twice.
But nevertheless.
“That would be enough.”
“Are you talking to yourself a lot?”
“There are times when you feel like you’re going crazy if you don’t get the words out of your mouth.”
“An old-fashioned voice. You’re in a lot of trouble too.”
He received a strange sympathy and reached the center of the pantheon.
A demon with outstretched horns and covered wings was waiting.
This is a demon, a pure wizard race.
it wasn’t real. It is a projection of himself in the divine seat. Something that can only be done in Manshinjeon.
His divinity is dark blue, a beautiful color with some mysterious color.
He is the god of magic and knowledge.

The king of the north was perplexed.
This feeling of the film being cut off is now a little unfamiliar.
When was the last time you rode [Lift]?
The sense of [time stop] was also dulled. It’s been so long since I’ve met an enemy who uses it.
Realize the blow that comes into your body.
Shields on all skills are turned on.
and it breaks
All of his defenses were consumed to protect against blows inflicted while time stopped.
The moment he became naked, he saw a great sword slashing his neck.
The king of the north died once.
