Trait Hoarder Chapter 225

Episode 225: The Ghost King -4-

Charge.

From the beginning, the news of the transfer was taken away.

Charging forward with a great attack and swinging the Mars sword.

[As expected, he was the Almighty.]

A ghost king who emits cold mental waves.

Draw a long line with the Skull Sword.

At the end of it, the gray sword was smiling darkly.

Boom, bang, bang!

A battle that took place in the blink of an eye.

The sword and the sword collide.

Explosions of noise erupt one after another.

The shockwave tries to push me away, but instead digs in deeper.

The Phantom King is a warrior, magician, and priest.

Even though it has been weakened and descended, it still boasts power that is over level 7.5, almost close to level 8.

Even my Mars build, which combined the Trinity build with the Double Power build, was not able to keep up with the Wraith King’s physical performance.

‘If only it had hero traits.’

It’s a shame that it’s sealed and can only be used when you reach level 8.

But it goes further.

He grits his teeth and swings his sword.

My trait switching was going crazy.

[Nephilim’s Sword][Master of the Sword][Knight of the Holy Crown]

[Magic Soul][Thor’s Training Method][Higher Level]

Black and white swords clash with golden flames surrounding them.

For a split second, the skeleton sword is pushed back, creating a gap like a pinhole.

[Mars Sword Fighting][Master of the Sword][Knight of the Holy Crown]

[Giant’s Power][Diamond Body][Immortal]

Push the sword through the gap.

A gap as narrow as a needle’s eye opens up, finally providing enough space to strike.

[Kalaratree][Island War][One Thousand Against One]

[Sacred Knight][High-ranking][Master of the Sword]

He transforms into a lightning bolt and finally delivers a devastating blow.

At the tip of my sword, the sword shines brightly.

The highest fire is burning.

From his head a sacred crown extends to the heavens.

The best attack I can make against the undead lands right in the chest of the Wraith King!

But the Ghost King only taunts briefly.

[It’s funny.]

The magic circuit glows.

The six-fold magical circuit around the heart that I observe through the Golden Eye and the Prophet’s Ring.

The largest and most complex of them all.

In terms of games, it has characteristics.

It was spewing out ominous light.

[Reverse]

The effect is simple.

The law is invalidated.

In game terms, it removes the opponent’s special ability activation.

If you use invincibility, use invincibility. If you use sword power, use sword power.

So what about now?

Pick, and the Kalaratree turns off.

Kalaratri, who tied together the sword, the knighthood, the sacred lightning and the supreme flower.

The silent sword that was reaching towards the heart loses its power and turns into an ordinary sword.

Oh, it’s okay.

I knew it.

From the beginning, I was preparing to fight alone, aiming to obtain the reverse quest.

If you didn’t expect this, you’re an idiot.

Wow!

It lights up the fire as if it had been waiting.

Golden flames and black and white swords grow as if dancing.

Here, I mixed in lightning along with the magic soul.

Although it may not have the same explosive damage as Kalaratri, it is the best in terms of armor penetration.

[That’s amazing.]

The Ghost King’s eyes flashed.

[Is this the Almighty?]

Before I knew it, my left hand was holding my silent sword.

The skull glove on his left hand is engulfed in a gray halo.

Full protection capabilities.

While my Golden Fleece grants immortality and resurrection, the Wraith King’s left-hand skeleton gauntlet has a defensive ability that cannot be destroyed by any means.

[But since I caught you… … Hmm?]

This is the terrifying power of the Phantom King.

Once you are caught in the left hand, there is no escape.

But every ability has its weaknesses, and I’ve used those weaknesses to fool the Phantom King several times in the game.

Leaned in.

The tip of the sword hilt touched the scabbard.

And the change of armament.

That is, quick slot activation.

The silent sword disappeared and was replaced by a blunt Mjolnir.

[Giant’s Power][Magic Soul][Real Fighting]

[Sacred Crown Knight][Lightning][Emotion]

Boom, boom, boom!

Slams Mjolnir down.

Beat up the Phantom King mercilessly.

It’s not just Mjolnir.

Every time my hand passes over the weapon sheath, the Silent Sword and Mjolnir switch in succession.

Are you just going to let your left arm play?

[Shield Expert][Castle Knight][Earth]

[Giant’s Power][Diamond Body][Real Fighting]

He deployed Aegis and struck the Phantom King.

Both hands are busy moving around.

The three great sword techniques unfold, Mjolnir flashes, and Aegis emits a cubic light.

Here is the newly acquired Jeongjo Eo-chong.

By using the Ghost Flower and Invincible Gun together, you can inject a new attribute bullet unique to the gun, the Breaking Magic bullet.

[Indeed, the Almighty! You are worthy enough to be my prey!]

The Ghost King let out a gasp.

But it doesn’t push.

The skeleton sword counterattacks resolutely.

Even if you try to squeeze through and get in, the skeleton armor blocks it.

All kinds of strengthening spells are applied here.

It seems like the magic of wizards and priests all use dark strengthening magic.

Eventually, I was pushed back little by little.

Even in close combat.

It even sacrifices surrounding zombies to gain magical power, then summons blizzards and dark vortexes.

A rough magic that knocks on me.

My body immediately freezes and my magical powers start to shake and flow back.

[Magic Resistance][Indomitable][Diamond Body]

[Immortal][Crown Knight][Air Raid]

A brief retreat.

After keeping a sufficient distance, I put on my earbuds and looked around.

‘Phase 1 is over.’

The first strategy for the Phantom King.

You have to survive until you can use area-of-effect magic by sacrificing the surrounding zombies.

Otherwise, right before I die, I’ll use a cure magic with the magic power I gained by sacrificing a zombie.

Things are better now, at least.

There are no phantom knights, phantom wizards, or phantom priests.

[The Dark Jaguar speaks.]

The Ghost King stared at me.

[Almighty. You have no deity to whom you have pledged your oath. Then, how about you take refuge here in the Dark Jaguar? The Dark Jaguar will exalt you and use you with honor. At the very least, he will place you on the same level as me, and make you a quasi-god, a warlord.]

A tone of voice that is not very pleasant.

I should say it felt like my food was being taken away by my boss.

By the way, this guy was like this in the game and he’s like this here too.

There were no choices at all in the game.

Of course, I have something to say.

“go away.”

[Thank you. Then let’s enjoy it.]

The Ghost King takes up his sword.

A large-scale magic unfolds.

Gray magic spread out, creating a barrier.

A subdimensional creation magic that goes beyond spatial separation, destroying all surrounding buildings and leaving only an empty lot.

You can escape by using the Great Escape.

Instead, all the surrounding citizens will be massacred.

The reverse flow characteristic also flies away.

At this point, the opportunity to acquire traits that were originally impossible to obtain disappears.

‘That can’t be.’

All that remains is a head-on confrontation.

I patted the armoured house.

He took out the magic chip while still holding Mjolnir in his left hand.

A red-tinted magic chip.

The highest grade frenzy magic chip that the Shinwon Market Black Market and the Colosseum broker gave you, but strictly warned you not to use.

I just activated it.

Even while equipped with a one-hit wonder.

Additionally, it can be used together with rage.

You can think of it as a triple-layer phototranslation.

The world was instantly dyed red.

I feel empowered.

A sense of omnipotence rises as if it is folding up the cerebral cortex.

Pfft, pfft, red sweat and steam rise.

Magic power is produced like crazy.

The heart is like a magic pump, circulating blood and magic power.

I feel like I’m not myself.

Not the level of frenzy, but the feeling when using mutation.

If I hadn’t equipped the Cool-headed trait, and if the Dragon Lord’s Crown didn’t have the Cold-headed ability, I would have lost my mind and gone berserk.

[You’re doing something funny.]

The phantom king hums wetly.

[But it’s meaningless.]

Another flash of reverse magic circuit.

Even the world’s greatest ghost king felt threatened by my triple-layered berserk attack.

Because the card called Frenzy is that dangerous.

To me, the one who uses it, and to the Phantom King who is affected.

He lunged forward and twisted both his arms with all his might.

Since my sanity was half gone, I made some excessive movements.

Instead, the immortality ability of the Golden Fleece is definitely activated.

A golden glow enveloped me, and instead of frenzy, the reverse flow of energy was reversed and canceled.

[How strange. How do you know so much about me?]

Oh, that happens if you catch it a hundred times in the game.

Jump into her arms.

Frenzy and rage are commonly referred to as active skills.

Once used, the effect remains until cancelled.

The same applies if you switch characteristics.

Boom, bang, bang!

Wields the Mars gladiator.

It’s not just about using a sword.

On the other side, he is striking down with Mjolnir.

Don’t forget to strike with Aegis.

Kwaaang!

And the shock wave.

Every time the waiting time ended, I stomped on the ground.

The Phantom King extends his left hand, defending with his sword.

Utilizing skeleton armor?

no.

The pose with the palm open was intended to use the close-range magic, Phantom Grasp.

A CC technique that forcibly pulls in the opponent and subdues them.

If you get hit in a one-on-one, it’s over.

The Ghost King’s eyes shone sternly.

[It’s the end.]

Flash!

But I have a shield expert.

The moment the light flashed, I threw down my shield.

Magic reflection is activated.

The unfolding gray hand returned to the Phantom King.

Gray aura entangles the Phantom King like a rope.

[her!]

It’s extreme time.

I gave it my all.

Kalaratree, Kalaratree, Kalaratree triple hit!

It was a total lightning storm.

The Lightning Sword, the Holy Sword, and the Holy Fire Sword strike the Phantom King.

He didn’t waste a moment to retrieve his sword.

He struck the skull helmet with Mjolnir and struck the heart with the Aegis.

But the Ghost King held on.

Even when subdued, damage is reduced by deploying defensive magic.

[How wonderful and awesome.]

The Ghost King swung his skeleton sword.

It looks like he’s trying to get me off by throwing a big punch.

Did you know that I would get hurt?

Since it’s a close combat, I can’t give them any distance so they can fight evenly.

I will be using both wizard magic and priest magic in earnest.

It got even more stuck.

Unleash a barrage of attacks.

My head is hot.

Even if you use the cool and cold traits, it seems like it’s boiling over.

If it weren’t for the commander’s teachings, I wouldn’t have been able to push the Phantom King to this extent.

Natural transition of traits.

Attribute changes that happen as easily as breathing.

In the past, when we had to calculate and fight with our heads, this would have been absolutely impossible.

[Okay. I will take the loss too.]

Entering the 3rd phase of the Ghost King.

My heart opens.

The skull-plate spreads the ribs apart.

Phew!

A gust of wind blew from all directions and blew me more than ten meters.

He held the Mukho Sword and glared at the Phantom King.

The exposed heart is visible through the open skull armor.

That is the true nature of the Phantom King.

It was a vessel of life that often appears in fantasy novels.

It ends when the heart is broken.

But it’s a trap.

As soon as the heart was exposed, the magic of death began to surge forth.

The most powerful dot damage among the Ghost King’s attacks.

Also CC machine.

Even a light touch would cause an ordinary person to become paralyzed and their heart would stop within 0.1 seconds, requiring a wide area of effect to be penetrated.

The Phantom King looks at me as if asking what to do.

Soon, his eyes begin to waver.

Because of me moving forward even though my ribs are open.

[Magic Resistance][Indomitable][Immortal]

[Geumgangche][Sunggwang Knight][Cold]

Move forward.

Break through.

I am receiving all the magical power that is bombarding my entire body.

My whole body hurts.

Magic power is seething.

Even though I weaken it with magic resistance and endure it with fortitude, it feels like I’m going to die.

A pain similar to that experienced when suffering from a fever strikes.

Would it be similar if gout uric acid crystals were packed all over the capillaries throughout the body?

It feels like magic has crystallized, become tangible, and is tearing apart my magic circuits, my blood vessels and nerves.

But I endured.

I won.

With the mental strength accumulated in this world.

Also thanks to the triple-layer wide-range attack.

With the help of the Coolness trait.

Somehow I gritted my teeth and endured, and endured again.

Crunch!

My teeth are broken.

It’s so bad that it’s almost painful.

Gulp.

Tears of blood are flowing.

It wasn’t just in the eyes.

Blood was flowing from every hole.

Not only in the eyes, nose, mouth, and ears, but also in the pores.

You can tell without even looking.

The place I passed by.

The fact that it was soaked in blood.

Urgh! Urgh!

Joints are breaking in real time.

A creepy sound runs through my body.

My mind is hazy.

The triple-overlap berserk is about to end.

The duration of the previously taken elixir is almost over.

A point where even coolness and indifference have reached their limits.

Only ten meters.

It’s so hard to break through that.

You know what’s scarier?

The thing about the Phantom King is that he moves normally while unleashing this wide-area attack.

[It’s truly amazing.]

The Phantom King looks at me and praises me.

[He is the greatest of all the heroes I have ever seen.]

A ghost king who holds the skeleton sword in both hands.

The 3-phase Phantom King does not use magic.

It only delivers heavy blows.

Each and every one of them is an attack of the slaughter queen’s level of destruction, and even a level 8 defensive warrior would have a hard time ignoring it.

Kwaang!

The skeleton sword strikes down Aegis.

My bone is broken.

My arms are hanging limp.

Mjolnir fell with a thud.

Even after switching the characteristics, it’s still like this.

The next attack will be impossible to stop.

[Goodbye.]

The Phantom King pulls the Skull Sword.

Me frozen in front of your nose.

My body is completely paralyzed and there seems to be no escape.

The Phantom King was completely caught off guard.

He was pulling the skeleton sword all the way out, ready for a full swing.

The moment I was aiming for.

Pot!

The Golden Fleece is activated.

The immortality ability has already been consumed, but the resurrection ability remains.

Simply put, it is a rechargeable elixir with the ability to revive.

And the elixir.

This ultimate healing power.

In addition to the ability to completely heal, it also has the ability to completely purify.

The body wakes up.

Magic power is purified.

Strength returns to the broken arm.

The fallen Mjolnir flew up on its own and was caught in my left hand.

[Inom!]

The roaring ghost king.

Deliver the final blow.

An attack that can even destroy a mountain is launched.

I need to use every defensive trait I have to stop that.

But my choice was to attack.

[Mars Sword Fighting][Nephilim Sword][Kalaratri]

[Master of the Sword][Spirit of Magic][Knight of the Holy Crown]

The set of traits that was once shown to the disciples.

Extremely inefficient, but the best I’ve ever had.

I didn’t even think about backlash.

Instead of the Geumgangche, the Seonggwan Knight was adopted.

Kkwarreung!

The sound of thunder echoing softly.

A black and white lightning strike.

The sword strike I have built up strikes the Phantom King’s heart directly.

The evaporating heart.

Magic power that disappears quickly.

The Ghost King is dead.

But it’s not over yet.

There was one final attack that hit me straight in the face.

[Die!]

A situation where neither defense nor evasion is possible.

There is no time to even brush the armoury.

There’s only one thing I can do.

Just switching traits.

It’s all done at the speed of thought.

Equip a trait you’ve never used before.

A few months ago.

The trait I acquired after the battle with the old man Sword Master.

That trait is also Baek So-rin’s starting trait.

Pfft!

And then the crash.

My body is falling apart.

My mind is clouded.

The world, the world was leaving me.

Death came to me.

But there was a lonely glow in my heart.

[near death]

So.

Fate has been turned around.
