Episode 702: The Subject of the Seal
While destroying the coral reef that had grown while sledding, a flying bald man was seen.
Since you don’t have the ability to fly like me, I guess it’s more accurate to say you fell.
-Kuuuung.
A cloud of dust rises from the fallen spot.
“As expected, Bald Man is even fighting off terrain monsters!”
“Kkaaa?”
I looked at him with an expression like, ‘What the heck are you talking about?’ but he ignored me.
Maybe it’s because I’m with kids who can’t speak, but now I can tell what they’re thinking just by looking at their faces.
Whatever it is, I plan to leave it to the bald man.
There’s no way I’d be affected by something like that.
“Look at that persistent guy.”
Even as I was happily getting beaten by Deokchun, the Kraken was coming to catch me.
The condition wasn’t that good though.
Half of the eight legs lost function.
The same goes for Deokchun’s burst eye.
It seems that the part that was eaten through overeating is recovering slowly.
Well then, that’s right. Whose stomach did it go into?
‘I think Fishman is almost finished.’
Over there, you can see a fishman covered in blood.
He was beaten up by a balding man so much that his face was unrecognizable.
It looks like it’ll be over soon, considering he’s having trouble walking.
The sea dragon is slightly caught though.
‘It’s quite possible.’
That’s because the absolute size is large.
The scales that had once glowed blue had lost their color.
It was broken here and there and painted with white gold.
We will see what we each take on to the end.
What I have to do now is.
“We need to find the core part.”
Terrain monsters are extremely difficult to see.
Because there are very few objects with that form.
Nonetheless, research has progressed considerably.
Because the damage they inflicted was so great, we prioritized their research.
It’s not like the terrain just swallows up the surrounding area.

Starting point.
There are key areas where the environment is starting to change.
There exists something that can be called a body there.
[SSS-class power, the eye that gazes upon the stars is unleashed.]
-Tsuzuzuzu.
It’s not just about going around destroying the surroundings.
I’m looking for the core of the bastard.
I thought it might be near the Kraken, considering it was the first time it was summoned.
‘You hid so well.’
If you’re an agent monster, shouldn’t you be able to confidently reveal your weaknesses?
I had that thought for no reason, but he didn’t do that.
That doesn’t mean I’ll just sit still.
Why do you care about this before the Kraken?
“Eww. Hmm? Hey! The bread smells so good!”
Over there, the bald man is out of his mind due to the gases emitted by the coral reef.
It’s like that now, but what would happen if I got seriously addicted?
“Hoooo.”
I took a deep breath and checked my mood.
Power alone is not enough.
You have to use all the senses you can.
Fortunately, I have the ability and the situation to do so.
He was an agent. He was a man who harbored chaos.
-Sssssssss.
“Over there.”
Because my chaos level is quite high.
You can catch the same energy sensitively.
There is nothing, but there is a lot of chaos?
Well, that’s the key.
-Quaddudduk!
A huge pile of coral reefs that appears to have been created by swallowing up a building.
As you jump in, something like a tentacle pops out.
It’s moist and looks like something venom is oozing out.

“Get out of the way!”
-Quajajajak!
That kind of thing is of no use to me.
A flash of light every time you swing your sword.
Advertisements
In an instant, five rays of light connected.
-Thud.
The torn tentacles fell to the floor and wriggled.
Ignoring the fact that it was spewing poison in all directions like a lake with water turned on, I punched the coral reef.
It was solid, but not enough to block a punch delivered with full force.
-Kurururung.
-Kwaaaaang!
It exploded and created a crack.
[Frozen Break (SS) Lv.5]
-Wow!
The water that had seeped inside cooled rapidly, causing an explosion and completely blowing the hole away.
Just move forward.
-Quaddudduk!
The coral reef grows rapidly to catch me and grab my body.
Even if you’re a superhuman, you won’t be able to exert your strength properly if your entire body is wrapped up.
But that’s okay.
“Manguya!”
“Kkaaaak!”
A gap created by the body somehow.
In between, Manggu’s spear dug in like a snake.
The spear, which had come in at an extraordinary trajectory, passed through the gap between my armpits.
-Kkwak.
The coral reef began to lose its light, accompanied by the sound of something breaking.
Shriveled things, scattering powder as if they were sick.
The sight of the nucleus turning into gray crumbs was quite a sight.
“There are three left.”
No, there are two.
The fist thrown by the bald man blew off Fishman’s head.
All that’s left are the sea dragon and the kraken.
A balding man comes towards me, shaking off the blood from his hands.
Maybe it’s because the coral reef’s gas has disappeared, but his expression is bright.
“Oh. I think I’ll live a little.”
“Are you coming to your senses?”
“I’m always sane!”
I guess it’s still working since you’re lying.
I looked at the guy with cold, cold eyes and turned my gaze away.

Anyway, the battle isn’t over yet.
A kraken with half an eye and a leg, like a building on the verge of collapse.
“Let’s finish this quickly.”
“of course.”
Kang! Kang!
The bald man clashes his gauntlets, burning with motivation.
And the bastards howled in response.
-Kwarrrrrrrr!
Lightning struck their heads.
That too, one after another.
That means one thing.
“The Fairy Club is here too.”
It looks like you’ve defeated the agent monster that fell over there.
It’ll be more comfortable if reinforcements come.
-Bang!
Without saying a word, Bald Man and I rushed toward them.
* * *
Bringing in the agent monsters was the right decision.
Because the number of monsters that were flocking to kill them has clearly decreased.
It was a relief to see that there were fewer enemies hiding in the flooding sea and attacking us.
I don’t know how long this will last though.
“The monster wave will come again.”
That was Smile Cap’s decision.
I can say this because I’ve been here longer than anyone else.
“I got angry before and broke a few special gates.”
Have you tried this before?
I felt anew that this guy is a monster.
“Even without them, if Erembat starts moving in earnest, they’ll flock here.”
What causes monster waves?
In short, it was pushed out by another powerful object.
Because you can’t live where you are, you have to leave and find another place.
In other words, it can be moved by imposing an artificial threat.
A method similar to a herding hunt.
Erembat is more than capable of that.
“It’s already beyond common sense. Let’s do it now while we can prepare.”
Advertisements
“That’s true. The damage is greater than expected.”
“Eight climbers in the center were also hit. Seven of them fell out of the tower.”
The central island hasn’t even been properly attacked yet, and yet there’s this much damage.
Whatever it is, it needs to be reorganized.
It was a plan made from the beginning, assuming that the fight would last about a week.
A week has already passed.
It is not known how many days the flooding will continue.
Smile Cap had to forget the ordeals it had gone through and find a new way.
“The situation is complicated, but if you look at the important things, isn’t it simple?”
Licky, who was eating an energy bar with his legs crossed, opened his mouth.
“We just have to deal with that guy, Erembat. Let’s call him and catch him too.”
If you look closely, the main trial is Erembat.
It’s he who causes the flood and brings the monsters.
That’s not wrong, though.
“I can’t call him out. I may be the ruler, but strictly speaking, I robbed an empty house.”
Smilecap shakes his head.
Although the ruler of the 97th floor was Smile Cap, it would be a stretch to say that he was the full owner.
“Because he took possession of it while he was sealed.”
Erembat, who should have been acting as the ruler, is usually asleep and inactive.
In this situation, Smile Cap also tried to reach the 98th floor and then came back down.
“That’s why we protect the historic site.”
A historic site located on the central island.
If we just protect that place, which is also Smile Cap’s home base, Erembat will eventually fall asleep again.
It will happen again as time goes by.
One thing I’m curious about here.
“Smilecap, you said that you artificially caused the trials before?”
“Oh. That way, I can go up.”
“How did you do it?”
The whole point of the ordeal is to stop the flood.
There are several ways.
As Lick said, we can eliminate the cause itself, or we can guard the central island until the flooding is over, as Smile Cap has done so far.
Artificially waking up Erembat means, in other words, weakening the seal.
Then again, wouldn’t there be a way to strengthen the seal?
“Well, that’s right. You can just see for yourself.”
Smilecap stands up, scratching his head.

The personnel currently in charge of all fronts have entered the central island and are resting.
Even now, they are gathered at one side of the ruins and holding a meeting.
I followed the smile cap.
In the meantime, I inspected the historic site.
Outwardly, there didn’t seem to be anything particularly unusual.
It just looked like a huge building.
There is no religious distinctiveness either.
But it’s too plain to be called a mansion.
I wonder if it wasn’t used as a hall to commemorate something or for people to gather.
This is just a guess.
“Oh. It feels like a temple.”
“I don’t feel any divine power.”
“It’s a pretty elaborate stone statue.”
Inside the ruins.
In a place where there was nothing to do normally, there was a towering statue between fallen pillars.
Each of them has the shape of a human being.
Although they were all different in race and appearance, they had one thing in common.
“Could they be the heroes of this world?”
“I agree. It’s too realistic to be a representation of God. There’s no embellishment.”
Each of them appears to be armed in their own way.
Although some of them were broken or shattered, it wasn’t hard to imagine what they looked like.
A warrior wearing a horned helmet or a fairy who commands what appears to be a spirit.
In addition, they are seen shouting or praying.
The smile cap went further in.
A place where scaffolding is assembled, on which statues have not yet been erected.
It was a space that had been refined while waiting for new heroes to appear.
“This is it. It has to do with the seal of Erembat.”
He pointed to one of the steps.
An ordinary looking necklace.
There is no sense of energy at all.
I tried using my power just in case.
[Jenniel’s Necklace]
-This is the necklace of Jenny, a fairy from Atlantis.
-The pentagon shape is pretty!
There was nothing particularly unusual.
A common necklace with no rank.

“There are several things that stimulate Erembat. Poisoning the sea, sprinkling human blood, etc.”
Jjang.
I shook my necklace.
“If you take this outside and take a spin around, you’ll get a reaction.”
“I guess it’s something related to that guy.”
“Probably so. Oh, and.”
Smile Cap takes something out of his inventory.
It looked like a piece of debris, almost like a sword, but it wasn’t ordinary.
“I also hate anything to do with the fragments of chaos.”
“Aren’t you the same kind? What a strange fellow.”
“It’s not strange. Climbers can get on bad terms with each other too.”
“Anyway, if you spread everything he hates or reacts to, it will cause an overflow.”
Each person shares his or her opinion.
Some people suggested using a necklace as bait to lure you in, while others suggested using something you dislike.
It is argued that we need to re-establish our defense line since they are coming here fundamentally.
It’s not like I don’t have any available means either.
I hate the fragments of chaos.
The chaos sword I’m using right now is an item made as a byproduct of Delverton.
‘Is that why you revealed yourself to me?’
There is a lot of chaos, so you might have confused it with the fragments of chaos.
There are some parts I don’t understand.
Even though the guy was trying to f*ck me, surprisingly, I didn’t sense any ill will from him.
The process and the result were not that great, but if you look closely, it was just a blink of an eye for me.
At least there were no direct attacks.
Why?
I quickly opened my inventory and checked the items.
‘Should I try this?’
I still have the chaos box.
Two of them, too.
I don’t know what will come out, but they said that fragments of chaos will also come out.
If there’s that much chaos, Erembat might show up too.
Even if you don’t use it, it might react to this itself.
good night.
Everything is good.
“Smile cap.”

I have to check one thing.
Description of Smile Cap.
The Erembat I encountered.
Even his behavior and reactions.
No matter how much I think about this.
“Erembat, isn’t it sealed?”
He’s not sealed.
To be precise.
“It wasn’t sealed because of the ruins.”
The guy himself is sealed.
