Episode 171: The Great Labyrinth -3-
Baek So-rin whispered.
“It’s huge.”
10 meters tall.
It’s called 10 meters, but it’s about the same height as a three-story building.
If you flip a city bus over, it’s that high.
Just think about a guy like that walking around, grumbling.
It’s natural to feel discouraged.
I took a quick look around.
Circular cavity.
There are no usable terrain features visible.
The walls are solid and the ceiling is cloud-like, emitting a dim light.
It was like this in the game too.
The fallen angels, the Nephilim, are the gatekeepers of the 50th floor.
Only by fighting head-on and winning could I get down to the 51st floor.
No special strategy is needed.
Only specs.
It was a gear check boss that couldn’t be penetrated unless you farmed properly.
“You guys are here.”
“yes?”
“I will help you too.”
“No. Never enter the stadium. You will die if you do.”
“Teacher. Are you by any chance the same guy who was in the basement of that shopping mall before?”
“Similar.”
Take a deep breath.
I opened my golf bag.
As I take out my alchemy tools and blacksmithing tools and start brewing herbs, the Nephilim stops and sniffs.
“Keung! Kkeung!”
But you can’t get out of the stadium.
It can’t be helped.
Because according to the setting, he bears the curse of bondage and the curse of sealing.
If I could attack from outside the stadium, I would eat them raw, but unfortunately, there is a subtle spatial disconnection that makes it impossible.
After drinking the five types of elixirs and applying the strengthening catalyst to the Mukho Sword, Mjolnir, and Aegis, I stood up.
“Whew.”
A state where you have consumed [Potion Dependency] and [Potion Addiction].
As I exhaled, a strange light dust spread out like a wave.
Seo Woo-jin looked at me with worried eyes.
“Teacher. Isn’t it too much for one person? I believe that guy is level 7. We need at least 4 level 7 people.”
“If it was a normal level 7, then yes.”
“Teacher. I would like to request reinforcements from the Guardians’ League… … .”
“No. I can catch it.”
It’s a monster without any reason.
He can never use the cunning and strange talents of high-level superhumans.
By my calculations, the odds were in my favor.
If it doesn’t work out, just bounce.
Just in case, I designated the Great Escape as the cannon base dormitory.
There’s just one thing to be careful of.
Only the sword of the Nephilim.
“Watch and when I write the Great Escape, you guys come to the cannon base too.”
“Yes, sir.”
When the Great Escape was mentioned, everyone was convinced.
He sits down with his face much more relaxed and watches the Nephilim.
Feeling the disciples’ gaze on his back, he approached the Nephilim, holding the Silent Sword and Mjolnir.
“Keung, keungeung, keungeung!”
The Nephilim snorts.
As the distance gets closer, the breathing becomes more labored.
So that even an ordinary person can hear it.
Then suddenly he opened his mouth wide.
“Kkaaaang!”
It feels like the world has suddenly turned upside down.
A fierce fear burned through my heart and my vision went dark.
On the one hand, the strength left my hands and I almost dropped the Mukho Sword and Mjolnir.
A full body roar.
A powerful sonic series trait that applies both fear debuffs and ability lowering debuffs at the same time.
But I persevered.
With the characteristics of the Diamond Body and the power of the Golden Eye, he instantly equipped himself with a magical armor and repelled it.
Take one step forward.
Fly with all your might.

Use the air strike to fly like a bird!
“Ugh?”
The Nephilim didn’t give in easily either.
Instead of roaring, he shut his mouth.
Looks like you got a strange feeling.
A creaking head and round, round eyes met mine.
I reached close range in no time.
His large eyes were filled with rage.
“Kwaaah!”
Kkwarreung!
Bring down the sword.
No, this is neither a sword nor anything else.
A giant club, perhaps, closer to a building pillar.
A sight as big as a Nephilim, swinging a city bus in his hand.
“joy.”
The situation was predicted.
Nephilim are immune to any kind of surprise, ambush, or raid.
If you clumsily attack from behind, you will most likely die instantly after receiving a crazy counterattack bonus.
So I saved one of the triple jumps.
Pfft!
The golden eagle flashes.
The final leap activated and broke my orbit.
Downward.
Not flying upwards, but towards the knees of the Nephilim.
In that state, use aerial dash.
Phew!
Magic power and steam were sprayed.
My body is being pushed out.
As if it had become a cannonball.
The creaky knees and rough skin quickly came into view.
Natural transition of traits.
[Giant’s Power][Magic Soul][Sword Expert]
[Mars Gladiator][Thor’s Combat][Single Month]
I delivered the strongest blow I could.
Kwajik!
“Kwaaaaak!”
Do you think this will be the end?
After brushing my knees, I turned my body.
Throws Mjolnir using rotational force.
Of course, with the trait switched.
[Divine Power][Holy Light][Lightning]
[Real Fighting][Sacred Skill][Throwing]
The primordial lightning struck his knee, the back of his thigh.
It explodes with a loud bang, completely destroying everything.
But when Mjolnir came back, I had to stick out my tongue inwardly.
‘Is this true?’
It was fine.
Clearly, the knee joint that was hit by the Silent Sword, and the elbow that was hit by Mjolnir.
It was just a raw, blackened bruise on my skin.
Even if I die soon, this is the boss who checks the gear.
It’s okay. It was expected.
‘Let’s focus on hurting as much as possible.’
The key to this strategy is not me.
A strengthening catalyst applied to the Muteki Sword and Mjolnir.
[Giant Blood]
If the Godslayer is specialized in the old father’s sect, then the Giant Blood is specialized in giants.
Nephilim are also a type of giant.
There is no decrease in ability value, but it has the advantage of dealing DOT without limit.
This means that if you continue to get hurt within the duration, the damage will be duplicated.
If I can just keep attacking, I’ll win.
“Goooooooooo!”
The Nephilim roared in anger.
He turns his body around and holds the sword upside down while striking down.
Kwaaaaang!
No, it won’t work.
The moment I saw that pattern, I flipped over.
Escape from the Blitz.
A tier 1 evasion trait that is implemented as invincibility time in the game and exquisite evasion in this world.
The ground explodes.
Magic power soars, accompanied by stones and sand.
Attacks on surfaces, not points and lines.
I couldn’t avoid it completely and got hit a few times, but I endured it.
In the form of a diamond.
Also, by weakening it with indomitable force and by dispersing it with the purification included in indomitable force.
As I leave a few dozen meters away, the Nephilim glares at me in fury.
“Geuuuu!”
And the curtain of darkness that spreads.
My whole body itches.
Dark attribute dot damage.
Since the stack increases at regular intervals, you have no chance of winning if you just waste time.
“after!”
What a pity.
It’s really easy if you have traits like Holy Knight, Holy Crown Knight, and Holy Sword Knight.
Even a N-class warrior can defeat a Nephilim by himself.
It’s a shame, but we have to make do with what we have.
Take a deep breath and then charge again.
I used [Shock Wave] and took advantage of the gap in time to slash his heel several times.
“Wow!”
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Nephilim stamp their feet recklessly.
It seems he realized that it would be difficult to catch me with a sword.
But it’s the same.
I was watching the trajectory with my ears.
Every time I hit the ground, a large-scale earthquake occurs, but it’s laughable.
Just block it with a diamond and indomitable spirit.
Even Star Spawn joined in to defend me thoroughly.
‘It’s almost time.’
He was not careless even while fighting with the Mars gladiator.
That can’t be possible.
The Nephilim’s real attack is not a full-body roar, a shock wave, or a pitch-black tidal wave, but something entirely different.
It came without warning.
Shy.
The moment the back of my head was pulled, I threw my body.
I never even thought of writing about ital.
With full force, he passed between the Nephilim’s legs, then without looking back, he triple-jumped, twisted his body, and slammed into the ground.
Behind me like that.
Right on the back of my head.
There was a light that licked past like a dirty snake.
Burning River!
The shining sword!
Rumble.
The golden eye was cut off.
Some of the magic curtain that was being manifested was lost and could not even be restored.
I feel my hair evaporating.
Even part of the skull was missing.
The power to erase skin, blood vessels, and bones.
The sword of the Nephilim.
As soon as I landed, I turned around.
“Phew.”
Cold sweat is pouring down.
But you shouldn’t be trembling in fear.
The fatal flaw of the Nephilim.
It’s said that after doing a big attack, you will definitely get stiff!
Kicked the ground.
He jumped at the Nephilim without even taking a breath.
He boldly flies up to the chest and stabs the silent sword into the heart.
On one hand, he struck with Aegis and on the other, he struck with Mjolnir.
Of course, it is tailored to the characteristics of one hit, one hit.
Switching characteristics with each movement.
“Keuuuuuu!”
As soon as the strange scream rang out, I jumped up with my chest pounding.
The Nephilim’s head barely passes me.
I think he got angry and threw a punch.
Even a slight brush with it sent a jolt of pain through the star spawn, as if its bones were broken.
It’s okay.
I can bear it.
Without using his immortality, he threw Mjolnir and struck again.
Only then did I land, equip my immortality, and heal my broken bones.
“Kurrrrrr… … .”
A similar situation repeats itself.
I flew around like a mosquito and attacked the Nephilim.
The wounds accumulate.
Although it is only a small scratch, the Nephilim’s hide is covered in red blood.
I wasn’t all right either.
“Whew, whoosh, whoosh!”
My whole body felt ticklish.
I felt a tickle outside my skin, inside my skin, outside my eyeball, inside my eyeball, on my lips, on my tongue, and even in my stomach.
If tickling becomes excessive, it becomes painful.
It feels like my whole body is being bitten by a swarm of termites.
I feel like I want to cut off all my skin.
But I endured it.
Relying on [Diamond Body], he charged forward and forward again while additionally equipping [Divine Power].
Before I knew it, blood was flowing.
Every time I moved, blood flowed out, leaving red marks where I passed.
The disciples appear to be fidgeting.
“teacher!”
“Stop it!”
“Use the Great Escape! Hurry up!”
“Then you’ll really die!”
you’re welcome.
How many times have I caught Nephilim while feeding the fragments of divinity to Kim Jeon-sa in the deepest part of the Great Labyrinth, and he’s dying?
Don’t die.
If I had just brought one N-class warrior, I would have finished it off with one shot.
Even though it is in a dying state.
Unlike games, in reality it is difficult and painful to the point where you feel like you might die.
This is especially true when you consider the trait acquired in a situation where you receive endless dark attribute dot damage while possessing the divine power trait.
Wow!
The flowers have bloomed.
From the heart, from the circuits of divine power magic, a new light was born.
A round halo of light that spreads out little by little.
But he was resolute.
I pushed away the pitch-black tidal wave that was soaking me.
[Brilliance] trait.
For a Paladin, this is an essential trait along with Holy Light.
I also felt my body become lighter.
Extra defense, extra resistance were whispering to me.
It’s now.
“Eeeeeep!”
I tried to scream, but all that came out was a curse.
I gritted my teeth and jumped up.
The Nephilim rolls its eyes as if sensing my changed mood.
He quickly grabbed the sword with both hands.
Nephilim’s sword ready stance.
‘Should I avoid it?’
okay.
Must be avoided.
Defense is impossible.
Even I, who prevented the destruction of heaven and earth, cannot stop the Nephilim’s sword.
But now is the watershed.
There’s a better way than avoiding it.
I put my hand on the weapon.
There are no bulky shotguns or sniper rifles in it.
Instead, I put two rings in it.
For today.
For this very moment.
The ring on my left index finger disappeared and a new ring was put in its place.
“Coooooo!”
A Nephilim swinging its sword straight at me.
A light of victory appeared in his eyes.
The moment my will penetrated, the energy flared up, and the energy crushed me at a speed far exceeding supersonic speed.
Wrong.
It wasn’t my body that the sword had destroyed.
It was an afterimage.
My vision had already changed dramatically, and I was now behind the Nephilim instead of in front of them.
And that too with his shoulders firmly planted on mine.
Aiming at the nape of the neck, the weak point of the Nephilim.
Kwak!
“Kuaaaah!”
I stabbed the silent sword with all my might.
Even though I tried my best, I only managed to get halfway through.
The Nephilim screams loudly.
But it’s still a tough time.
Could have made one more attack.
Kwaang!
He struck down Mjolnir.
With the heart of a carpenter who hammers nails.
On the handle of the Mukho sword that sticks out like a nail.
The silent sword was almost completely rooted.
Then the stuck area started to boil.
Passing the critical point.
“Kwaaak! Kwaaak!”
The Nephilim glow.
He holds the sword in both hands and begins to scatter it in all directions.
Gray-white swords flew around haphazardly.
The final phase.
In game terms, it means your HP has dropped below 10%, and realistically speaking, it means you are struggling right before you die.
“Whoa!”
I almost got hit.
I barely managed to avoid it by turning my body.
I just brushed past him, and to my surprise, the aegis split and his arm was cut off.
The ring of flash I used earlier is still charging.
[Ear][Sixth sense][Air raid]
[Acceleration][Movement][Departure]
All defensive characteristics have been erased.
Focus solely on avoiding it.
Ignore the pitch-black tidal wave eating away at your body.
It was a race against time.
Flash! Bang! Kkwarung! Kuuung!
Avoids repeatedly.
I narrowly avoid it.
However, this did not lower the level of attack.
With his arm cut off, blood spraying everywhere, and his entire body soaked in blood, he threw Mjolnir repeatedly.
“Ugh, ugh.”
My breath hitched.
My heart feels like it’s being torn apart.
The heart is already overloaded.
Every joint in my body was screaming.
Every time I move, the thing creaks and a creepy pain comes up, as if it’s going to break, and my eyes go blank.
But I endured.
He threw Mjolnir with a curse and a grudge.
How many minutes passed like that?
After all the blood vessels in my eyes had burst.
At that time, if you don’t have ears, you can’t even see.
Kuung!
The earth wept.
It caused a big vibration.
“Ugh, ugh.”
The Nephilim have fallen.
If I had no experience, I would have approached it without thinking.
If you were going to root it, you would have searched through the chest and taken the prototype from the giant sword, [SSR Jet Black Sword].
But I know.
The fact that Nephilim do not die for a while even if their blood level drops to 0.
WHACK! BRACK! WHACK! BRACK!
So I threw it away.
Just Mjolnir.
From a distance.
Even if the Nephilim doesn’t move at all.
Even after the head explodes, exposing the brain and the heart has completely stopped.
Like a machine.
Or like a robot.
All I did was throw Mjolnir repeatedly, seemingly pointless.
It was a long time before I stopped throwing Mjolnir.
[It’s so frustrating… … .]
Suddenly, a vague thought flowed into my mind.
A goblin danced over a giant corpse and then scattered.
