Solo Max-Level Newbie

Episode 353. Crown of Paedo (1)

A black object visible through the platinum sand.

It is the ‘Crown of Paedo’ that the Heavenly Demon possessed.

It is the key to reaching the 50th floor, and the highest level artifact that possesses power that is different from other relics with its own specs.

The time has finally come to get your hands on it.

‘Eye of gluttony’ saw through the target.

Tring!

[Crown of defeat]

Difficulty to obtain: Impossible to measure

Description: It is one of the 7 crowns that exist in the tower, and means overwhelming ‘force’.

All stats and stats possessed +30

… The level of ‘Eye of Gluttony’ is low, so it is impossible to check detailed information.

Jinhyuk’s eyes narrowed.

‘good.’

It is genuine without a doubt.

pounding! pounding! pounding!

My heart started beating fast.

The option to increase all your stats does not simply mean that you increase the basic 4 stats of strength, agility, horsepower, and stamina.

‘Gap and adaptive… It means that it even raises luck-related stats.’

A truly deceptive trait.

In particular, there was no way to obtain additional gaps other than avoiding the attack of the ‘Minotaur’ on the first floor.

But this is the only way to raise it indirectly.

‘Besides… it’s also the key to going to the 50th floor.’

A key item that is absolutely necessary to enter the 50th floor.

Afterwards, even in order to take advantage of the position with the gods and the great powers of the upper echelon…

This must be obtained unconditionally.

‘I want to go and catch it right away, but I’m not the type to leave it alone.’

If you behave clumsily, you will be punished instead.

At the very least, you’ll have to distract them… or do some damage to create a gap.

Moment.

Whoa!

The energy coming out of Jinhyeok’s body has completely changed.

It was the possessiveness that comes out when you see something you really want.

“…Do you really think you’ll compete with me?”

The Hound asked, puzzled.

And to that question…

“Did you really think that you would fight with me while acting as a hunting dog on the 50th floor?”

Jinhyuk replied with a bright smile.

“Hounds… Well, since we don’t know them well, we can only be seen as hounds.”

“No, they’ve already gone through what they’ve been through. It’s sickening to the bone.”

“Are you using the expression that you are fed up with having only one victory?

Hmm…

From the Hound’s point of view, I have no choice but to think that way.

He said he only fought Shub Nigurath once.

And in fact, that one battle… it was difficult to see it as a proper victory.

“Well, that’s right. It would be impossible to fight head-to-head against them yet.”

“Not yet?”

“Yes. Not yet.”

Right now, I’m crouching down.

You will become stronger in the future.

To catch up with the past heyday.

To see the top of the tower that no one has reached.

like that.

Even beings on the 50th floor. I intend to once again reach a place where even the deities who dominate each myth can’t be reached.

sereung.

Jinhyeok pulled out the twin dragon sword and fangs.

A pair of swords of different lengths tinged with excitement.

“The other friends are fighting hard, but we can’t just play around. Then, let’s have fun.”

“…The time for regret will be very short. There are no living players among those who faced me.”

Jinhyeok and Hound moved at the same time.

fault!

Quaang!

with a great roar. The two new faces have disappeared.

* * *

Attack from the bottom right.

Boooooong!

The sound of the wind pierces the eardrums.

At the same time, Jinhyuk twisted the trajectory of the greatsword using his fangs.

Puffer Puck!

Immediately, sand splattered in all directions.

The word ignorant is a blow that comes out of nowhere.

However, without blinking an eye, the second sword strike rushed towards the torso.

“…!”

can’t avoid this

Jinhyeok prepared for the shock by holding the twin dragon swords in front of him.

Quaang!

A heavy impact penetrated from the fingertips to the top of the head.

A ranker corresponding to the hero class.

It’s great too.

If you simply look at the destructive power, it was comparable to the giants.

however.

“It’s a power fight…”

Parts…!

I also have this one if it’s suitable for it.

[Inherent ability ‘Tombgrave’s right arm’ is activated!]

The power of the giants dwelled in the right arm.

As the muscles expanded, the quality of the magical energy flowing through the blood vessels also changed.

Kwaaang!

bang! Quaang!

The greatsword and the sword collided, and dazzling sparks were scattered.

It was a series of sword strikes that seemed to shatter his forehead if he even brushed against them.

Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah!

Behind Jinhyeok’s sand, a long wound about 10m was formed.

Likewise, a wound of similar length was made on the opposite side where the hound was standing.

The three strikes, which made use of the rotational power, headed for the nape of the neck.

one sum. Two sums… Twenty sums.

“Hmm….”

As the battle continued, the Hound’s eyes began to shake little by little.

It’s a natural story.

He has been on numerous missions under Nyarlathotep’s command, but none has been able to withstand his attacks to this extent.

‘Absolutely… it’s not about strength or speed.’

Rather, that part was pushed beyond the rest of the Old Guard who came with it.

However, there was one thing that made up for all those flaws and made it last.

timing.

To be precise, it intentionally reduces its power by intervening at the very moment right before its maximum destructive power is exerted.

Kwaaang!

It is the same this time.

The sword swayed subtly sideways.

In terms of time, it was less than 0.1 second, but the Hound was deprived of his breath.

‘It wasn’t a coincidence.’

Not sure if it was once or twice.

Except for the first 3 times, all attacks did not go as planned.

More than anything else, the more we exchanged sums, the more accurately the accuracy of reading our breathing became frighteningly accurate.

As if I’m feeling a little better now.

When the decision was not reached even in the 39th match, the two men distanced themselves for a while.

“This… amazing.”

The Hound let out a voice filled with pure admiration.

At this point, even if you don’t want to admit it, you can’t help but admit it.

As much as the power to read each individual’s ‘breath’.

The fact that your opponent is above you.

“Is that why you were so confident? He must have judged that if he waited for his stamina to drop while inducing me to lose control like this, he would naturally be able to get his hands on the crown.”

In fact, even at this moment, Jinhyeok was shifting his center of gravity little by little to the side where the crown was.

While pretending to focus on the fight on the outside, all nerves were directed to the crown.

Among the most prominent monsters in the tower, the Old Guard… against himself in the fourth position.

You took such a break.

“Ku-k-k-k-k-ha-ha!”

Hound burst into laughter.

It was such a big madness that the fights of others stopped for a moment.

“That trivial calculation is irritating. Even if you focus on even one cell, it’s not enough. You sold one eye.”

The timing and breathing are just fine.

Remnants of skill are useless in the face of overwhelming power.

Now, I will tell you how big of a mistake that thought was.

Cuckold country!

Red runes were revealed following the ink-colored greatsword.

[The seal of the Old Guard is released.]

[The unique holy spear ‘Ring of Reverse Heaven’ is activated!]

The greatsword moved slowly.

The twin dragon swords and fangs reacted to this.

however.

“It’s over, kid.”

Kwadeuk.

The moment sword meets sword.

A sound that should never be heard rang out.

“…Kuh!?”

An earthquake occurred in Jinhyeok’s pupils.

It was because the dagger made from the fangs of the phantom beast Pentagris started to crack.

The illusion that time has stopped has arisen in the work that has destroyed common sense.

But this is not an illusion.

It wasn’t even a fucking dream.

Crunchy….

Ending with a crack that gradually grows.

The blade of the fang was completely split.

The weapon that has been together for a long time has lost its luster.

[Absolute judgment ‘collapse effect’ has been activated.]

Red status windows appeared one after another.

“How is it? Are you still looking at the crown?”

A fishy smile lingered on Hound’s lips.

I was certain that Jin-hyeok would be in a panic right now because there is no one who would not panic after losing his weapon.

but.

* * *

‘Ryun of Reversal… I finally got to see that proud native voice again.’

Jinhyuk had already predicted that this situation would unfold.

‘It’s unfortunate that I lost my fangs, but I can’t help it.’

His gaze turned to the status window of the hound displayed in the ‘Eye of Gluttony’.

Name: Crexus de Acacius

Alias: Hound

Level: 315

Stats: Strength 533 Agility 215 Stamina 305 Magic Power 255 Foreign God’s Will 644

Unique Ability: Reverse Heaven

Unique Lance: Reverse Heaven Ring

Skill: Description of Skill There are too many of them, and they have been put into a collapsible state.

Details: Acacius, a resident of the 20th floor approximately 1300 years ago, was one of the nobles belonging to the ‘Lost Empire’. However, due to the power struggle in the tower, the entire family was destroyed, and as a result, the world was disillusioned and he tried to end his life. It was then that Nyarlathotep recognized his talent and made him one of his Old Guard.

[Copy condition]

In order to copy the target’s ability, you must sacrifice something corresponding to it. Depending on the target sacrificed, the success of copying the ability is determined, and the more valuable the target, the higher the perfection of the copied ability.

The reason I gave up my weapon…

is to copy this ability.

As he said, the crown was the top priority, but a group of such outstanding people gathered.

It doesn’t make sense to not copy abilities.

I’d like to copy all of them, but given the circumstances, copying one or two if you’re lucky is the limit.

And the ability to decorate the first is the unique ability of the leader, Hound.

‘Please…’

Jinhyeok swallowed dry saliva.

As much as I threw away my cherished fangs, I hope this is acknowledged…

[The requirements for ability copying have not been met.]

[Additional sacrifices are required.]

Since this is an outrageous ability, even this is not enough.

Or pay for something bigger and more expensive.

Or at least hit a lot of sheep.

shit.

However, it is not possible to give up ‘Balmung’.

‘There is a new way to procure the lost fangs within the Dune of the Sun, but it’s difficult beyond this.’

Having to give up even Balmung, which is optimized for hunting dragons. Because it means the belly button is bigger than the stomach.

If so…

Jinhyeok’s eyes flashed.

I came up with a way to secure the crown, copy the ability… and at the same time deal with all the troublesome old guards.

The risk is very high, but it is possible if a few circumstances are right.

I just have to try it once.

Took.

Jinhyuk showed his back.

Heading towards the quicksand with the crown of defeat.

“Puhaha! As expected, one thought is simple. Is the most worrying thing to do is run to grab the crown while praying!”

Hound, confident of victory, began to pursue closely behind him.
