How to Survive as a Player Chapter 245

#245

Like a lunar eclipse in the chilly wind, something huge obscured the ocean. It was an airship made of translucent fluid that gave off hot heat.

The airship’s open gun ports began preparing to fire at once. And when all the clanging sounds stopped, dozens of cannons fired from the airship collided with the beam of light coming from the goddess’s mouth, causing a huge explosion in the air.

In an instant, the field of vision turned white, and storm-like rain and wind struck the Great Sea. All colors disappeared and reappeared temporarily.

As soon as color returned to the faded world, Fen bent over and gasped. After giving up her best, Fan smiled weakly and left the rest to Sehyeon.

“now… Hehehe, you guys… “It’s your turn.”

“Don’t worry, just take care of yourself and rest. Mr. Owl, the sea will soon part, so get ready! “We will go below sea level!”

[Scream!]

The sea swelled violently and announced something to Sehyeon. Between the rough waves, the surface of the sea began to split like a line.

Clap clap clap-

The sea widened as if its mouth were wide open, centered around the stone statue of the goddess. Soon the huge waterfall formed two majestic walls. The stream of water that went up created a tsunami so large that it covered the sky. That was Kwak Jeong-han’s <Faith> skill.

Sehyeon watched the scene with bated breath. The others also watched the rising tsunami with their jaws clenched tightly.

“more… No more… I’m crying, I can’t… Bertie… .”

However, one of the twin walls of the tsunami tilted as if it was collapsing. At the top of the tsunami was Tira, staggering and flying. Blood flowed from Tyra’s mouth, nose, and ears as she ripped her head. It was an aftereffect of not being able to handle the skills.

“Let go! “I’ll take care of it!!”

Kwak Jeong-han’s shout was heard through the waves. Tyra, who was holding the tidal wave to its limit, turned her eyes white and fell straight into the sea.

“Tira!!”

The person who jumped into the sea to save Tyra was Theo. Theo, who shook off the terrifyingly charging monsters with his shield, swam towards the falling Tyra with her eyes wide open. However, along the way, the sea froze beneath Theo’s feet.

Theo kicked off the icy road and barely managed to catch Tyra.

“Thank you for your hard work, Tyra. “Leave the rest to me.”

Theo glared at the goddess and whispered bitterly. A strong determination burned brightly in his eyes.

Before we knew it, the sea had split enough to reveal the goddess’s entire body. She wriggled as if Kwak Jeong-han’s arm, which was withstanding the heavy pressure of the sea alone, was twisted. Her breath in his mouth was rough and shallow, as if it would break at any moment.

The blood vessels in the bulging whites were popping out as if they were being crushed by pressure. Seeing him clenching his jaw, Sehyun clenched his fists. It was as if Kwak Jeong-han was now overcoming the great sea alone.

Meanwhile, a black hole of unknown depth appeared in the sea, which was divided like a scar. It was a pitch-black pit reminiscent of a sinkhole.

“Mr. Owl!”

At Se-hyeon’s shout, Owl rode the shaking waves and went down the pit. The bottom of the swirling sea was full of monster corpses.

As we dug up the body, something white came into everyone’s sight. It wasn’t a mistake. The thing that emitted intermittent light was the pure white head of a goddess that had been trampled by the polluted statue of the goddess and was digging into the ground. With only her head exposed, the pure white goddess closed her eyes as if in pain.

It was an image of herself being eaten, created by the goddess’s ego.

“Se-hyeon… . me too… Hehe, how much… pond… Hold on… “It’s the same.”

Kwak Jeong-han’s harsh words could be heard intermittently above the shaking waves. Gritting his teeth, Kwak Jeong-han’s eyes had already burst all the veins, and there was not even a trace of white in them.

Gigi Gigi Geek-

It was at that time that a strange sound of scraping metal was heard. The source of the sound was the goddess’s feet pressing down on her pure white hair. With a scratching sound, a huge foot came down on the muddy ground towards Se-hyeon and her companions.

“Sehyun, avoid it!!”

Kwak Jeong-han shouted with all his might in a blood boiling voice. Every time the goddess’ heavy foot hit the floor, the corpses of the monsters beneath them exploded as if she was vomiting blood.

Contrary to what Kwak Jeong-han said, there was no place to escape in this cramped space. Beyond the black water that was blocked in all directions, monsters were swarming, and in front of them was a huge foot approaching without hesitation as if it would step on them and kill them.

It was a situation where there was no choice but to fight. I had to fight. Se-hyeon, who was clenching her twitching fingertips tightly as if overwhelmed by his large body, let out a shaky breath and stretched out her trembling hand behind him. He was trying to hold the bow.

But before that, someone blocked everyone’s path. It was an animal whose bloody, wet, limp mane was particularly vivid.

Growling-

Lee Jae-young, who was growling with his nose wrinkled, stretched his neck toward the sky and let out a long cry. It was like a cry mourning those who had lost their way. When that cry became a roar, the monsters swimming in the sea gathered in one place. It would be more accurate to say it was condensed.

The monsters, drawn by something, lost their reason and flocked towards the central point, and soon began to form a gigantic shape.

The bodies piled up on the floor were also mixed in. Jaeyoung Lee stumbled and vomited blood throughout the roar. Perhaps it was when the roaring sound was mixed with the sound of metal, but before I knew it, the indescribably gigantic thing had stretched out its crouched body and was facing the goddess.

[Keeeeeeek!!]

At first glance, it seemed to resemble the Giant God Soldier of the Magic Empire. However, she was so huge and hideous that it rivaled that of a goddess, and she was radiating a ferocious energy.

The two creatures immediately collided with a tremendous sound.

“Baek Do-hyeon!”

“Okay, stay back!”

Baek Do-hyeon quickly ran to Se-hyeon’s side. Baek Do-hyeon quickly passed by the feet of the arguing goddess and monster and ran to the buried goddess statue.

Everyone watched with sweat in their hands. Even my breathing stopped. It was a time when everything depended on Baek Do-hyun’s actions.

An urgency I had never seen before appeared on Baek Do-hyun’s face. At first glance, it seemed desperate. Baek Do-hyeon’s hand, cutting through the muddy ground, stretched sharply forward. Every moment was slow. Baek Do-hyeon’s feet stepping on the ground as if exploding, the pure white goddess brushing against his outstretched fingertips, and the saliva being swallowed out of nervousness, were slow as if they had stopped now.

Suddenly, Sehyeon saw the waterway narrowing between them. As I quickly looked up, I saw the waves forming two walls collapsing.

“The water is falling apart!”

Someone’s sharp shout scratched my ears. Kwak Jeong-han was falling limply into the gap between the collapsing waves. The veins that stood out on his limbs, which were suffering from limitations, were so ugly that it was pitiful.

“Jeonghan!!”

Se-hyeon stretched out his legs and ran towards Kwak Jeong-han. If he falls like this, Kwak Jeong-han will die. Huge shadows collided again above Sehyun’s head as she ran to receive him with her whole body. A roar echoed through the air like a thunderclap.

However, the moment Jaeyoung Lee spat out blood, the giant monster that was confronting the goddess lost its strength and was swept away by the waves. The corpses of monsters swept away by the current obscured the view with foam.

A tidal wave of energy was hitting everyone like a storm. Everyone looked at Baek Do-hyeon’s back, prepared to die. I placed my last hope on that shaking back.

But, as if crushing our fleeting hopes, the black water swallowed everything. Se-hyeon reaching out to Kwak Jeong-han, Jae-young Lee staggering and falling to his feet, and the rest of the group clenching their teeth while holding on to each other disappeared, buried in the vast sea.

When the gap in the valley was filled, the sea became calm. It was a sight where everything went back to the way it was before.

What was unfolding was a vast, vast sea. But there was nothing left there. There were no goddesses, monsters, or anything else.

“Huh, oh oh… .”

“Cold, cold… .”

Heavy breathing and coughing lingered in the quiet space. Sehyun slowly scanned the pure white space with exhausted eyes.

Everyone was sitting in a circle, leaning against each other. As if resonating, it felt like our tired minds and bodies were connected like a thread.

“class… Kwak Jeong-han… Seed… .”

Sehyun felt the floor and stretched out her hand to the side. As soon as something touched the back of his hand, Sehyun’s hand was held tightly. It was definitely blue skin. Kwak Jeong-han was right.

“… It’s safe… .”

Sehyun closed her eyes deeply in response to Kwak Jeonghan’s difficult answer. Only then did relief burst out through my heavy breathing.

“W-this place… .”

“Inside the self of the goddess.”

The answer came from Baek Do-hyun. Baek Do-hyun wiped his mouth and nodded his head towards somewhere. Everyone’s eyes turned towards the distance. There was something whitish there. It looked like someone was crouching down.

Sehyeon was the first to stand up. After that, one by one, they got up without saying a word and headed towards where the goddess was. She was in a place where she couldn’t even hear footsteps. Still, the wetness was overwhelming, and chills and fatigue tormented everyone like body aches.

The startling pace stopped when I arrived in front of a child sitting with his back to me. kid. A child who must have been about 5 years old was sitting on the floor and looking at something.

What are you looking at?

Everyone was curious, but didn’t ask. For a moment, the child opened his mouth as his back was turned.

【Am I doing well?】
