Solo Max-Level Newbie - Chapter 22

enemy within

Unbelievable.

When Song Cheon-hwa and other players ran to the shouting place.

Already, after the worst had happened.

late.

Healer, who was looking at the four people who fell on the floor, shook his head.

A clean scar on the back of the head.

It must have been that he had been ambushed from behind and died instantly.

But a much bigger problem than your death was what they were protecting.

huuuuuuoooooooooooooooooooo

A floating black sphere at the entrance to the ruins.

someone .

Woke up the Guardian.

['Guardian of the Ruins' looks at the invaders.]

[Time Remaining: 09:59]

A "guardian" who guards the entrance to the ruins.

They possess the power equivalent to the boss level of the upper dungeon, but they have the trait of awakening only when stimulated.

Hence the nickname 'Sleeping Bomb'.z

It means a bomb that is not dangerous if left alone.

What kind of idiot touched this!

What's the use of coming here and checking it out? I've already started waking up!

Yes. It's already late.

Only 10 minutes left.

If you don't leave the ruins inside... .

Guardian is fully awakened.

Tongue, bro!

I know. I know!

Song Chun-hwa bit his lip.

You can't fight the Guardian.

That's suicidal.

'At least half... No, maybe more than that.'

In fact, Reid has to give up.

It would be impossible to lose half of the power and go to the boss.

However.

'You mean you finish before you even start properly?'

For the absurd reason that it also woke up the Guardian?

Hardness isn't the problem.

It was a problem that could have been expelled from the guild at all.

'How much trouble did I have to work to get to the position of chief engineering officer... !'

Kwok.

The molars burrowed into the lips.

It can't end like this.

never.

Song Chun-hwa gave the order as if he had made up his mind.

Let the Guardian wake up. We keep going inside.

As the decision to proceed, noises were heard everywhere.

Brother. Are you serious?

You have to think carefully. No, really. If you make a mistake, you could all die.

A team of porters came in, but three teams were still waiting outside.

Moreover, none of the guilds that were supposed to join the latter group had not yet arrived at the ruins.

Continuing meant giving up more than 20% of the total power.

Don't talk and follow me. Even if I take responsibility, I will bear it.

Song Cheon-hwa dismissed the objection with a single blow.

"And even if there is no latecomer, if there is only Teresa, the odds are good enough."

Yes.

This is the corner I believe in.

Song Chun-hwa's gaze glanced to the side.

blonde lady.

As far as dealing with undead monsters, Teresa was rated as the best in the world.

With this woman... .

possible.

not possible.

It was only a few dozen minutes later that the news reached the porters.

Hey, isn't this different? The guardian wakes up, but can't get out of the ruins?

What are you talking about! Then, are you saying that we should go with the raid?

Damn it. Had I known it would be this dangerous, I wouldn't have come in the first place!

The porters raised their voices.

However, the reply that came back was cold.

Someone assassinated the guardians, and by the time we arrived, the guardians had already awakened.

It's an assassination... .

Jinhyuk, who had been silent, pricked up his ears.

'The culprit is among the people here... .'

In today's world, murder isn't a big deal.

What is interesting is the motive.

I'm not trying to make any profit.

Locking up people inside the ruins so they can't get out.

It's fun.

You can roughly guess what the guy is aiming for.

and even its body.

Maybe thanks to the Guardian's awakening, the situation can be handled more flexibly.

at that time.

Jinhyuk suddenly turned his head.

and one step late.

It's a monster from the point of view! A medium-sized class... a lot!

A player in the scouting group shouted.

I, prepare for battle!

Song Chun-hwa put a bloodline around his neck.

The response was slow because it was a surprise attack in a state that had not yet been properly maintained.

thud! thud! thud! thud!

The grass swayed from side to side with the sound of shaking the earth's axis.

come.

It's also very fast.

In front of the tanks!

Hurry back the porters! Don't disturb them! Get out!

Aww!

The tree fell.

The grass parted and revealed... .

Koooooooh!

Aww!

They were Durahans who were over 2.5m tall.

all twelve.

Each was armed with a mace and an axe.

Ugh.

Dew, it's Durahan!

A total of 13 types of monsters appear at the entrance of the ruins.

Durahan was among the most difficult to deal with.

With the overwhelming sense of intimidation, I woke up with feathers crawling all over my body.

A higher level predator that is fundamentally different from ghouls and skeletons.

Not only did he have tough skin, but he also had speed and strength, so Durahan was a monster belonging to a very difficult axis to deal with.

Auxiliary buffs are driven to tanks, and dealers are re-timing while collecting as much mana as possible!

Song Cheon-hwa led the raid.

[Song Cheonhwa activates Lv3 'Iron Shield'!]

[Go Yun-deok activates Lv2 'Wedge Formation'!]

[Lee Yun-mi activates Lv2 'Warrior's Song'!]

huuuuuuoooooooooooooooooooo

Various skills and buffs were stacked.

And that moment.

Aww!

Aww!

Durahan's mace fell over the shield.

Jinhyuk observed the battle a little further away from the rear.

'Certainly, the guild unit's dust resistance is strong.'

It was annoying that we had a lot of breathing together.

Because he wasn't pushed at all against Durahan.

The problem is solo players who do not belong to a guild.

I was mostly alone, so I wasn't used to this type of group battle.

Eventually, victims began to appear.

kwaduk!

An eerie sound of breaking bones and crushing flesh.

Aaaaaaah!

A man with a sore shoulder fell down, spitting blood.

These guys are ridiculously fast!

Hey, healer! Where's the healer?

Send some tanks to our side as well. I can't stand it... If this continues, we'll all die!

Truly Abigail.

With his improvised organizational power, he could not deal with Durahhan.

At least, that was the reality for solo players.

However, despite earnest requests for help, Song Chun-hwa turned away from those seeking help.

The victim comes out.

That's normal.

And I rather liked this one.

The corners of Song Chun-hwa's mouth twisted slightly.

'In order to create a dramatic situation, the sacrifices of the beggars are essential.'

In fact, this raid had another purpose in addition to clearing the ruins.

Securing immediate fixed subscribers.

Due to the rule that views are counted only once per day per subscriber, the battle for subscribers among current players was fierce beyond imagination.

It means that it is not easy to get 10,000 views for any video.

'In the end, if you want to make your subscribers go crazy, you have to give them a peripheral stimulus.'

cruelty and sensationalism.

If you create a dramatic situation there, you will be able to make the best video.

'Since there are enough victims, let's move slowly.'

Song Chun-hwa nodded his head to the side.

Dongyoung-ah!

Yes, bro!

The man who was casting immediately activated the magic.

Pants!

The air cooled rapidly.

A pure white sphere made in the palm of your hand.

It was the binggye magic 'Ice Orb'.

Mana spewed out of a block of ice condensed to the limit.

right at that moment.

KwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwa!

A streak of storm blew between the Durahans.

Aww!

Ugh...

The movement of the Durahhans was noticeably slower.

The castle was clinging to the arm holding the weapon.

His legs, which were moving quickly, also stiffened in place.

Now! Everyone spread out!

kuung! kuung! kuung!

The tankers, including Song Cheon-hwa, widened the gap left and right at once.

clear center.

fault!

percussion!

The players who were waiting smashed the ground.

They were the main dealers of the Balhae Guild 1st raid, using swords and spears.

Scratch! kwaduk!

The blade was aiming for a vital point.

For a dealer specialized in melee, the slow Durahan was an easy prey.

kuung! kuuung!

The Durahans fell one by one.

- The video came out well, hyung. I think this will get at least 300,000 views.

The video editing ability of the Balhae Guild raised a thumb.

'Three million... !'

The tail of Song Chun-hwa's mouth ascended.

I felt the reward of preparing bloody for this directing.

In fact, saliva will flow from the perspective of the viewer.

Because I put the mulberry flavor right.

'Almost all those who came alone must have been annihilated.'

Eight of them were blocked by the guilds, but the remaining four went behind the tanker.

result?

Obviously you don't even need to check.

Those who fought back must have already turned into corpses.

At least the quickest ones survived.

Is this what it feels like to have a periwinkle passing by?

At the age of 25, Kim So-mi, a talented person in the information field, gave up her life as she saw the ax approaching.

I no longer have the strength to run away.

There was no mana to defend by moving one fingertip.

'just I'll live up to my level.'

He was just one of many people who came in to earn money.

This wasn't the ending I wanted.

I closed my eyes and waited for the end.

wishing it to be over as soon as possible.

By the way.

...?

no pain felt

strange.

Obviously, I thought it would be incredibly painful.

Unable to hold back your curiosity, let's open our eyes.

Ugh!?

An unbelievable sight was unfolding there.

Big play!

The ax stopped.

Durahhan's arm muscles were exploding, but he couldn't get past the man in front of him.

' Are you holding up?'

No, I'm blocking it too lightly.

with only one dagger.

If you look at the state of the armament, it must be a melee dealer... .

Why does it look bigger than a tank with a shield?

It was just amazing.

It was amazing and wonderful.

However, the surprising emotion was turned into fear in the scene that followed.

Whoops!

The man's left hand rose in flames.

It's not like a small spark, it's a fear enough to sting your eyes.

Ma... no, you even use magic.

It's impossible.

An all-round player with only a small number of players.

Even so, there are differences between their abilities.

Any one means that there is a weakness.

However, I had never heard of a case where all abilities were so strong.

What is the level... .

'I can't even guess.'

KwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwa!

Flames engulfed Durahan's head.

The disgusting smell of roasting rotten meat stung his nostrils.

Aaaaaah!

kuuung!

Durahan's body, which had turned into a lump of charcoal, collapsed.

four with this.

Jinhyuk looked at Dyurahan who had fallen for a moment.

I had to maintain level 1, so I didn't completely stop breathing.

In fact, it would be safe to say that it is almost like a corpse.

'I'll take care of the finishing touches.'

Jinhyuk brushed off the charcoal powder on his hand.

And he ate his mouth as if he was missing something.

what is it

I haven't been able to warm up yet, but it feels like the game is over.

It was inevitable that the level of Durahan was too low than expected.

A simple pattern that follows instinct rather than a tricky attack.

It was a little quick and had great power, though. It was just that.

It actually took me less than three minutes to deal with four of them.

'How come it seems so much easier than it used to be?'

At that time, it took more than 10 minutes to catch 4 Durahans.

It's been shortened by 7 minutes, so even thinking about it yourself is absurd.

This seems to have been too stagnant even after 11 years of standing still.

But right then.

You, how are you...?

A completely unexpected voice was heard from behind.
