Chapter 123
Giant Troll.
Unlike its simple name, it is a boss monster that reigns like fear to users.
Troll’s unique strength compared to other large species such as regenerative power, hunting instinct worthy of a top predator, and the modifier ‘giant’ are also supplemented.
A very tricky monster.
thud! That very Giant Troll fell.
“at las!”
“Knocked down!”
The Five Star raiders, who were responsible for defeating the troll, cheered.
Giant Trolls were famous for their rare ransom as well as their trickyness.
Ingredients needed to make advanced potions.
For this reason, its value could be said to be absolute.
“hey! Aren’t we the first to catch only the second phase?”
“Is it one of the best skills in the world?”
Looking at the happy guild members, Lee Si-woo furrowed his eyebrows.
“Are there any parts you are dissatisfied with? master.”
When adjutant Kim Jung-hyun asked, Lee Si-woo clicked his tongue.
“too slow. I should have caught it without even watching the 2nd phase. Deal would have been enough?”
“I think it’s because there are more unexpected patterns than you can imagine.”
“It must be the analysis team’s job to consider and analyze that.”
“that… … .”
“If you can’t pay for what you ate, there’s no reason to stay. Tell them that if this happens again, the incentive will be cut by 50%.”
Lee Si-woo, who spoke coldly, narrowed his eyes.
“It’s a place I invested in even giving up the interest in the dwarves… … . I don’t know if this will make it profitable.”
Iron Blood, Ark, and other prestigious guilds are reaching out to the dwarves like dogs hungry for poop.
Five Star, which is excavating the ruins, cannot reach it.
“… … sorry.”
“I don’t need an apology, so speed up a bit. Even if you put in overtime and shifts all at once.”
“… … !”
The average working hours of Ohsung Group Horizon Department is 80 hours per week.
The staff members’ faces turned white when they heard that they would increase it further.
‘I’m going to increase it here… … ?’
‘Are you saying that we should only hunt outside of the time we eat and sleep!’
If you increase the time more than now, you will surely make a mistake.
However, the damage caused by that is unconditionally the fault of the employee himself!
‘I came in because it’s a large company, but it’s complete hell!’
‘It’s a bonus, so let me rest!’
Employees moving forward screaming inwardly.
A second gateway appeared before him.
“Kaka Kaka! Foolish bastards!”
“How dare you invade this place!”
Advanced Undead troops made up of Shadow Lich and Shadow Death Knights!
The Five Star Guild members started preparing for battle again.
‘Kim Cheol didn’t give false information.’
Siwoo Lee rubbed his chin.
‘To think that monsters like this came out from the beginning.’
The immutable system in Horizon is high risk high return.
I didn’t know anything else, but it was certain that the stronger the monster, the greater the reward awaited.
‘This is at least epic level… … . I can look up to the immortal class.’
Was giving away a useless dog a bad joke?
‘More, you have to wake up sooner. So that no other guild can follow. That way, I can emphasize my achievements in the competitive landscape of the successor.’
Right now, I was able to be confident that I was occupying more hidden pieces than anyone else.
Iron Blood Sword, Five Star, Ark, Rank 1 Azin, Fafnir, and many other rankers, more than anyone else.
Kwak-ah, Lee Si-woo’s fists gained strength.
* * *
-Daughter Gra La Rock!
A normal Skeleton Soldier was crushed by a stone.
“hmm.”
Squeak, Fafnir’s pen recorded the time and process on the paper.
“The stone trap is there, the thorn trap is there… … .”
The number of traps written on the paper is 32.
The Skeleton Soldiers were able to find out all of them thanks to their dedication.
-Lion King… … . Did you even call yourself a king?
“Yes, that is not an ordinary king, but a real king who defeated all the heroes of the south.”
-You are the best person of all time! I’m really looking forward to what kind of warrior it will be.
An excited voice.
-Let’s talk about who’s stronger.
“Caramit-sama.”
-hmm? why though?
“It seems like you talk a lot more than when we first met.”
– Uh hmm! is it?
At that time, Karamit was almost like a vengeful ghost.
Well, I did just that.
– Even if you look like this, you haven’t forgotten your revenge. When the opportunity arises, I will definitely beat them.
“okay.”
-I have to take revenge, but apart from that, I have to fulfill my mission to protect this world.
And also enjoy a little bit.
For some reason, I felt like I could see Karamit smiling.
“Caramit-sama.”
-hmm? Something?
“So, who do you think is stronger, the Lion King or Karamit-sama?”
– Of course, this body. At that time, I was famous all over the continent.
Hmmm, that tidyer.
While chatting, the record was finished.
When I turned my head, I saw elite skeleton soldiers standing at a distance.
“Why are you so far away?”
“Just… … .”
“Anyway, the location and pattern of the traps have been roughly figured out, so there is no need for you to break through together.”
I don’t know if it’s monster hunting.
When it came to avoiding traps, having skeleton soldiers with them was just cumbersome.
“Instead, keep your luggage below. It’s a pity that I can’t come this far and not be able to take on the challenge… … . I can’t help it.”
“Click.”
“Moongrak.”
For some reason, I think I saw him wiping sweat from his forehead.
must be an illusion
“Do I have to go all the way to the top there?”
“yes.”
Capps put down his pack and sighed.
“Then I will be waiting for you at the foot of the mountain.”
“What is it? You should go up together.”
“yes?”
“There is work to be done at the top. Leave your luggage with the Skeleton Soldiers, and come up with only what we have told you beforehand.”
“… … .”
I’m sorry, but there are things to do at the top of the mountain.
“I will go first. Get some rest and come up.”
– You have entered the Mountain of the Dead.
– This is an area where the level of monsters is excessively high compared to the current level!
As we started climbing the mountain, the traps were triggered.
A rock the size of a house comes down, or a sharp wind blows stones like a weapon!
“As expected, they come randomly.”
In fact, there was already a way to climb safely.
A safe route commonly referred to in games.
but… … .
‘Break through the shortest distance no hit! I can’t stand this.’
There is no specific content that gives something to break with the shortest distance.
But this was my instinct as a gamer.
“Shall we go?”
Fafnil ran as it was.
In the next moment, countless stones rolled down from the mountain.
The Skeleton Soldiers who moved from side to side activated different traps.
Jumping up is usually the correct answer.
‘I believed that and went up, and No. 5’s head was cut off.’
Even if you jump up, the instant death judgment is the same.
“Nependeath!”
Kwak! An explosion occurred in front of the rock.
As I pushed myself into the pit, a rock the size of a house passed over my head.
A pretty nasty trap.
It was fortunate that Nependeath was there.
“Whoop!”
I took a breath, but I didn’t have time to stay long.
Fafnir climbed the mountain avoiding the flying rocks.
– Avoided traps consecutively.
– Agility increased by +1.
‘oh?’
what all this
Every time I received the status, my strength came out.
Capps, who was walking downstairs, stared at the figure in bewilderment.
“Crazy, what the hell… … .”
They say it’s a necromancer, but the way it moves is comparable to that of a fairly average monkey.
If he had been a warrior, he would have been in the top 10 of the rankings!
From noble mtl dot com.
“But why are you playing a necromancer… … ? Is it a deceased person plane?”
No way. Caps shook his head.
Horizon is already a box office hit to the level of being called future food.
It’s become a worldwide game, and you play hard mode there?
“… … Are you that confident?”
Position doesn’t matter.
Confidence that you can reach the top no matter what.
In contrast, what about yourself?
Caps looked at his stocky body.
“… … Can I do that too?”
As I care about what others say, my shoulders are narrow before I know it.
How desperate he must have been when he was assigned a dwarf even in the game.
But that person was different.
Unlike himself, who lived haphazardly, he was climbing to the top brilliantly.
“What are you doing!”
“yes?”
The man called himself.
“Come up quickly! Did you see how the traps work earlier?”
“ah… … . but… … .”
“No. 1! Help me!”
“Daughter!”
“Uh, uh!”
While I was confused, No. 1, who held my hand, started bringing Caps.
“Well, I won’t die because I come by the easiest route.”
Fafnir checked the seconds again.
“7 minutes and 51 seconds to the top… … . It’s not bad, but it’s a little disappointing.”
taste was bitter.
If it was a warrior class, I would have finished it in 6 minutes.
-Oh, I feel an unusual energy.
“That altar seems to be the center.”
In front of me was a stone altar with a groove in the shape of a lion.
“Let’s take a look… … .”
As I approached the altar, I heard a voice.
-He who stands on the test bed.
-Your reputation is heard in my ears.
Tring!
– Reputation is over 20,000.
-Leader of one or more factions.
-You rule over 1 organization.
– The Lion King recognized you as its king.
– You have met the conditions of the test.
‘As expected.’
In the original novel, Wei Qing won the title of “king” by unifying the back alleys of Aluyin City.
As a Metal Dhampir, this one earned the title of king by accumulating achievements in the Orc War and the Dwarf Village.
-If you want to take the test, take your blood and feed it to the Lord of the Lions!
“Are you going to bleed on this altar?”
The moment I cut my hand with the blade and brought it to you.
– Your reputation is above the standard.
– There is no turning back if you start the exam now.
-Would you like to start the test? (Y/N)
“It begins.”
Whatever the test, I did everything I could.
Now I just wait for the luck of the sky!
– The Trial of the Lion King has begun.
– Fight the Lion King’s soul and win.
Fire, golden light exploded in front of the altar.
“Here comes, the Lion King.”
– Oh, finally!
A golden lion the size of a house stood where it disappeared.
“Cheung!”
-I faced the lion king ‘Muba’.
– Muba does not obey a weaker king than himself.
– Defeat the spirit of Lion King ‘Muba’.
-hmm?
Karamit muttered with a look of bewilderment.
-Is that the lion king?
“It seems so.”
-Hey, why are there beasts instead of warriors?
“Is that because he is the Lion King?”
-No, who thinks of a real lion, of course I thought it was a soldier with a title… … .
“Kheuuuong!”
Muba roared in time.
“Summon Skeletons, Bell, Penelope, and Skeleton Knights!”
you don’t have to watch
Go to full power from the start.
“Click, click, click!”
When No. 3 fired a spear, the golden lion did not escape and was hit by it. The bones around No. 3’s mouth widened.
“Kreung!”
Then the golden lion moved. It rushed at No. 3’s neck at once, and tore it apart in one bite.
-Elite Skeleton Soldier #3 has been reverse summoned.
“no.”
It’s a one turn kill.
No. 3 was made from Dark Snail’s snail’s house. In terms of defense, he was stronger than No. 1, right?
“Click clack clack!”
One was killed, but the other Skeletons calmly continued their attack.
Linked attacks trained through numerous hunting experiences.
However, no matter what kind of attack, the body of the golden lion was not injured.
“Cheung!”
Whiririk, the golden lion swung its front paws wildly. It was cute enough to remind me of Nyangnyang Punch, but the aftermath was huge.
“Daughter!”
“Tagak!”
Skeleton soldiers who surrounded the surroundings scattered in all directions. The golden lion’s paws weren’t lethal, but they were faster and stronger than that.
“Innoooum!”
All right.
Skeleton Knight Louis ran.
“How dare you break my lovely men, turn them into skewers!”
The spear thrown by the skeleton horse accelerated and became even stronger.
The moment when it was stuck in the window with such authenticity.
“uh?”
“Daughter, go!”
“Quaaagh!”
The Skeleton Knight and the Skeleton Horse were scattered into the air like a car hitting a rock.
“… … Is it physical immunity?”
A weakness that I found out at the cost of Skeleton Soldiers and Skeleton Knights.
“Blood Explosion!”
When the spell was cast, an explosion of blood erupted. Up until now, they had mainly engaged in melee combat, but in fact, Necromancers mainly focused on attacking with spells.
however… … .
– No damage.
“Hut.”
“Kheuuuong!”
The dust from the explosion cleared away and the golden lion roared.
Immune to both physical and magic?
‘This won’t be easy… … ?’
A cold sweat ran down his spine.
