Kang Do-hyeon was somewhat shaken by Seo Kang-rim’s words.
‘You believe in my skills?’
After meeting Seo Kang-rim, he continued to treat him coldly.
In that situation, it would be natural for Seo Kang-rim to be dissatisfied, but on the contrary, he believes in himself.
‘It’s all just empty words anyway.’
An excellent trainee who has received great praise and is receiving love calls from the team leaders of the Protectorate.
How would Seo Kang-rim see himself?
Even the compliments you give now may not be sincere.
“… … The installation is complete. Just lure him well.”
Kang Do-hyeon answered like that.
Seo Kang-rim didn’t say anything else and went out into the central hallway with Annabi.
“Mr. Seo Kang-rim, now all we have to do is lure him.”
“Yes. Be careful.”
They began to walk quietly down the hallway.
The hallway was long, long.
At that time, I felt like I was wandering around here endlessly.
“Ah, ahh… … .”
A man’s crying could be heard faintly.
It sounded like a sob, or like the sound of a broken instrument.
Annabi also heard the sound and whispered softly.
“… … I think it’s over there.”
Inside the hallway, darkness seemed to be swaying and billowing.
In the darkness, the man’s white hair looked strangely white.
The man approached them, sniffing, as if he could smell their body odor.
And the moment he realized that there was no map, he immediately ran towards Seo Kang-rim.
“Ahhhh-!”
“Step back, Mr. Seo Kang-rim!”
-Snap!
Annabi struck the man once with the staff she was holding, then quickly stepped back.
Seo Kang-rim also immediately pulled his body back and ran to the designated location.
Even after being hit, the man did not give up and ran towards them.
-Bam, bang!
The man’s movements were among the fastest that Seo Kang-rim had ever seen.
The man ran up the wall and blocked their path.
Seo Kang-rim swung his sword with the intent to kill.
-Crunch!
The sword dug shallowly into the man’s arm.
As Annabi struck again from behind, the man flinched and stepped back.
“Ugh, ugh… … !”
A voice full of resentment came from the man’s mouth.
He seemed quite hungry.
As I was running while fending off the man’s attacks, the designated location began to come into view.
“Seo Kang-rim, Annabi!”
At Kang Do-hyeon’s shout, the two people hurriedly ran into the hallway.
After confirming that the man had followed her inside, Seo Kang-rim took out the Chiljido.
[Strong yang energy radiates from ‘Chiljido’!]
“Ahhhh… … !”
Seo Kang-rim took advantage of the moment when the man flinched at the sight of the map and stuck it into the entrance before pulling himself out.
The man was blocked by the map and couldn’t follow along.
The moment when Kang Do-hyeon was urgently trying to activate the talisman.
“Ahhhh-!”
[The ability ‘■∞?’s #?’ is activated!]
As the man let out a long howl, a fireball began to form around him.
Sparks flew everywhere like crazy, and the talisman began to burn along with them.
‘Was it a fire-type superpower?’
I saw it, but the four pillars were distorted so I couldn’t read it properly.
As the talisman burned, Kang Do-hyeon clicked his tongue.
“It’s annoying. First of all… … !”
Kang Do-hyeon took out another talisman and tried to subdue the man.
But then, Seo Kang-rim shouted in a sharp voice.
“Everyone get out of here!”
-Kuuung!
As soon as Seo Kang-rim finished speaking, a giant sword cut down the place where they were.
In an instant, the pillar behind was cut off.
-Bang!
The pillar collapsed with a loud noise.
Beyond the rising dust, a giant silhouette was visible.

Annabi bit her lips when she saw that.
“… … This was the boss of the 5th floor.”
That man is just a stranger trapped here.
There was a separate real boss.
A huge statue appeared before them.
If it weren’t for the current situation, I would have thought it was a wonderful work of art.
It was a figure like an ancient goddess, with both eyes covered and holding a huge sword.
═══════════════
[Name] Guardian Statue
[Rank] Ghostly Item
[Description] A statue that protects a specific area. It kills intruders, and you cannot leave the designated area until you kill this beast. The ability increases according to the number of intruders killed.
═══════════════
It seemed that this statue was a demon that was a condition for conquering the area.
The grade is exquisite.
It was tall, but not so tall that three people couldn’t kill it.
But there was a problem.
“Ahhhh-!”
The man screamed and ran towards them.
The seven-character map that had been stuck at the entrance had just been hit by the statue and bounced off, rolling on the floor.
It wasn’t broken or damaged, but that wasn’t a moment to take comfort in that fact.
“Chasa Annabi, be careful!”
As soon as Kang Do-hyeon kicked the man, the statue swung its sword at his head.
You have to deal with two at once, and you can’t kill one of them.
As the conditions for capturing were met, the difficulty level increased rapidly.
‘If it’s urgent, I’ll kill the man, but if possible, I’d like to capture him alive and experiment on him.’
Seo Kang-rim glanced at the man and the statue.
‘That statue doesn’t seem to consider men as intruders anymore.’
The sight of them attacking together was nothing short of demonic.
Annabi shouted as Seo Kang-rim tried to block the attack and wait for an opening.
“Both of you, step back for now! I’ll stop you for now!”
As Annabi gestured, toads poured out of the air.
A small force of tows blocked the enemy’s path.
“Oh oh!”
“Ohhh!”
The toads rushed forward fiercely, latching onto the man’s eyes and the statue’s hands and legs.
They pulled back while the tow trucks interfered with the two.
However, the statue was blocking the stairs, so they could not retreat to the fourth floor.
The time given to them was fleeting.
‘There is a problem with using the binding amulet like this.’
If you try to use a talisman, there is a high chance that it will burn out.
Moreover, this flame had the effect of strengthening the statue.
[The statue is strengthened by the logic of fire and earth!]
Fire makes earth strong.
Just as pottery made from clay becomes stronger when thrown into fire instead of being destroyed.
“Ooooh-!”
“Oh oh!”
In the meantime, the tows were being attacked and flying away mercilessly.
It was originally just a waste of time.
Seo Kang-rim opened his mouth to look at the situation.
“Brother. Do you have the amulet left?”
“It remains, but do you still intend to use the talisman in this situation?”
“The amulet is the most effective at capturing them. But I guess I’ll have to change the way I use it.”
He quickly relayed the operation to both men.
Annabi’s eyes sparkled when she heard that story.
“It seems like a good plan.”
“… … .”
Kang Do-hyeon did not answer.
Since he didn’t refute it, I thought it was meant positively.
Now that there weren’t many toads left, Seo Kang-rim quickly took action.
“Then, please take care of what we talked about earlier.”
Annabi nodded and bit the toads.
As soon as the intruder disappeared, the two immediately turned their heads towards the humans.
Seo Kang-rim shouted at Rini.
“Lini, water catcher!”
“yes!”
[The ability ‘Water Catcher’ is activated!]
Linney drew moisture from the air and created water droplets.
Because there was no water nearby and the air was dry due to the fire, the amount produced was small.
Still, it’s enough to put out an urgent fire.
-Whoaaah!
As the water was sprinkled, the fire died down a little, but only temporarily.
Meanwhile, the statue approached the three people.
-Kagan!
The one who blocked the sword was Seo Kang-rim.
Although the attack was blocked, the precious item was definitely a formidable opponent.
Just by crossing swords once, I could clearly feel my opponent’s capabilities.
‘It’s true that the precious thing is strong. But it’s not like it can’t be stopped.’
Seo Kang-rim’s role is to buy time.
While Kang Do-hyun and Annabi were capturing the man, his job was to distract the statue’s attention.
Even if they didn’t win, it was enough to grab their ankles.
-Kkang, kkaang!
Amidst the sounds of Seo Kang-rim and the statue fighting fiercely.
Annabi and Kang Dohyun stood in front of the man.
“Is it okay if I just leave it to Seo Kang-rim?”
“We have no choice but to capture him as quickly as possible and join up with Seo Kang-rim. Let’s hurry.”
“yes.”
Kang Do-hyeon took the talisman out of his bosom once again and sent it flying.
However, before the amulet could be placed on the four sides, a fireball created by the man flew in and burned the amulet.
“This is why I hate the fire world.”
The seal he was going to use had to have talismans positioned in four directions.
The problem is that the man burns the amulet as soon as he sees it.
When the talisman didn’t work, Kang Do-hyeon took up a weapon and went out to subdue them.
“Then please, Annabi!”
“yes!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Kang Do-hyeon ran towards the man.
As the attacks grew fiercer, the man appeared to panic.
However, Kang Do-hyeon’s attack only targeted the area around the legs and did not go towards the heart or head.
The man who noticed this snickered and shouted at the lion.
“Ahhhh-!”
[The ability ‘■※’ is activated!]
[The ability ‘#■?’ is activated!]
As soon as the ability was activated, Kang Do-Hyeon’s body floated up.
It wasn’t easy to control my own body.
The man’s body also seemed unaffected by gravity.
“Damn, is it gravity control?”
Kang Do-hyeon’s movements became slow, like someone drowning in water.
In addition, the remaining other abilities are physical enhancement abilities, and the man’s speed has increased by one level.
-Kwaang, kwaaang!
The man was like a fish in water.
While he was running around the four sides as if it were flat ground and attacking, it was difficult for Kang Do-hyeon to even defend himself.
-Kagakak!
“Ugh… … !”
Before he knew it, Kang Do-hyeon had numerous wounds on his body and blood was flowing out.
The man who smelled blood pulled out his long tongue and licked the corner of his mouth.
When his eyes met with Kang Do-hyeon’s, the man chuckled.
The moment he kicked the ceiling and ran towards Kang Do-hyeon.
“Annabee!”
When he called out Annabi’s name, Annabi, who had been waiting behind him, opened her eyes wide.
[The ability ‘Tou’s Pilot’ is activated!]
At the same time, something jumped down from the top of the pillar.
It was a countless number of toes.
“Ooooh-!”
The man seemed taken aback by Tou’s sudden appearance.
But immediately the man launched an attack towards the tows.
Some were on fire, some were split in half, and some were floating in the air like Kang Do-hyeon.
The tows’ attacks did not reach the man at all.
As the man laughed bitterly, something caught his eye.
“Ooooh-!”
The tows that had been curled up were seen stretching out their bodies.
They had amulets attached to their chests.
