Pick Me Up! Chapter 261

#261

261. Like killing bugs (1)

I stepped out of the dimensional gap.

There were already hundreds of heroes on the first floor of the waiting room.

The square was crowded with many passers-by.

“Phew, doing the same mission over and over again is pretty boring.”

Beside me, Jenna stretched.

Belquist was fixing the scabbard in silence.

[Master, there is a hero waiting to be promoted!]

[Upgradable Heroes – ‘Han (★★★★★)’, ‘Jenna (★★★★★)’, ‘Belquist (★★★★★)’]

The hologram window flashed green in front of my eyes.

With the clearing of the mission just now, all three of them had reached the promotion level.

The level at which a 6-star promotion is possible is 70.

On the lower floors, the experience table is structured so that you can raise 10 levels per 10 floors, but the story is different from the 50th floor onwards. Otherwise, you won’t reach the 6-star level until you reach the 100th floor. In Taoneer, which had broken through the 60th floor, it was possible to easily reach level 70 with just a little labor.

The result was the three of us.

After clearing the 60th floor, Amkena repeatedly sent me, Jenna, and Belquist to the 59th floor mission, and we reached level 70 shortly after.

“The level has risen a lot, but I don’t know if it’s gotten stronger. In the past, I felt it quite a lot. Should I just say that?”

We got on the elevator to the upper floors.

Now, various high-end facilities, including elevators, have appeared in Taone.

“It seems that ability doesn’t matter much now.”

“That’s right.”

I nodded.

strength, intelligence, stamina, agility. There are four types of stats in Pick Me Up, and you can raise them as you level up, but the efficiency of the stats drops sharply from the high level section. This is called the capability limit.

‘Basic is 100 points.’

If his strength exceeds 100, no matter how much he raises his stats, it won’t make much of a difference.

If there is one, it is a subtle degree that can be overturned with skills, imprints, and slight variables.

There are definitely differences, but it’s still important,

It means that it will not be enough to measure absolute superiority like in the past.

Therefore, in battles between high-level heroes, victory or defeat is determined by a mixture of factors such as skills, imprints, matchmaking, and combat situations.

‘Still, it’s true that 5-star birth is superior.’

Because the starting point is different.

belt ring. I stepped out through the open door.

The completed fifth-floor plaza of Taoneer welcomed me.

I separated from the two of them and headed to the left section of the 5th floor.

There, the exclusive house Amkena had prepared for me was built.

There is even a maid in charge of housework and a personal assistant.

‘It’s built neatly.’

It sounds like you paid close attention to it before building it.

The 5th floor of Taoneer was designed to be easily defended even if other heroes invaded. Defense facilities such as watchtowers, barriers, gates, and magic traps were seen everywhere.

Because there are a lot of idiots these days.

I entered the room, locked the door, and opened a small book.

[Teeling!]

A window popped up with a faint sound effect.

This book was a dedicated Internet access device prepared by Isell. You can access the Internet at any time by simply unfolding it, and you can charge it. It was basic that only I could see. I moved the cursor and entered the MuTube homepage.

[31,253 subscribers]

30,000 subscribers.

It has almost tripled in size.

The latest uploaded video was on the 60th floor.

I briefly looked through the comments.

‘The response is favorable.’

The word buschung is rarely seen.

While I was fighting with the saintess in the fantasy world, Amkena commanded the fight outside.

It seemed that there was also a so-called ‘fan’.

Occasionally, there were comments asking for a hero to be sold or an apology for the Eunbyeol Guild, but I was immediately hit with a negative bomb and blinded.

The reaction of the official cafe was similar.

Amkena broke through the 60th floor not long after starting, and was making a name for herself as the shortest attack user of Pick Me Up.

[Isn’t that a new record? It took less than half a year to break through the 60th floor. It’s almost like a speed run.]

└<Reply – Mechakucha>

[Aren’t they all heroes? He’s a very strong hero. I was carrying it all by myself.]

└<Reply-Right>

[It’s about the lower floors. If you look at the 60th floor video, it’s not really like that. My skills are fine.]

[Rather than that, when will server lag be resolved? I’ll keep bouncing and I’ll really turn around.]

└<Reply – Blizzard King>

[Most of them are bugs.]

Something similar continues.

The stigma of being an ill-mannered user who slaughtered the herbivore guild soon subsided.

Amkena was making a name for himself as an up-and-coming pick me up master. Guild offers and friend requests come in several times a day. The same goes for asking to sell me. Of course, Amkena refused all of them.

‘Things are going well.’

Even if it’s released, it’s too good to be released.

There was no problem. Amkena’s own skills have improved, and the strength of the heroes is on the rise.

After the 50th floor, the mission difficulty decreased, and various other good news were smiling at Amkena.

[Help]

[About the external upgrade center]

[If it is difficult to upgrade a hero in the waiting room, you can use the external upgrade station installed outside the waiting room.]

Amkena was investigating the contents of the 6-star promotion.

I guess so. You cannot upgrade to 6 stars at Amkena’s Upgrade Center. If it was Niflheim, everything could be done inside, but Taoneer still needed outside help to operate.

‘Bonamana, I’ll go there.’

Dimension City Beta.

It was a help center installed with a convenience patch from a few months ago.

The purpose of its establishment is to help low-level masters grow and narrow the gap with rankers.

There was also a facility for upgrading to 6 stars. It is located on the 60th floor sector, so the distance is not too far. An airship will arrive within three days.

smart.

A knock sound outside the door.

I turned my head.

“Master, cleaning the mansion is over. Where should we go next?”

master?

I frowned and replied casually.

“When you’re done, go back to your room.”

“Haona, there are still working hours…”

“He said he’s done cleaning. There’s nothing to do.”

“……thank you.”

The sound of footsteps went away.

It’s been very annoying. After expanding the waiting room to the 5th floor, Amkena put them in my house at will.

Helpers dedicated to meals, cleaning, laundry, etc. Even if the Master doesn’t need it, he’s unmoved. Eventually, they ended up living together in the same house.

‘It’s annoying.’

I have many things to hide.

You just have to keep some distance.

After that, it was a continuation of the waiting room work.

Nerissa brought the papers right away, and I checked the operation of the waiting room from the room and wrote a report to the master. And after sending it, Amkena clicks OK, and the schedule ends.

[Master, do you want to close the connection?]

[Yes / No]

[Then goodbye!]

Close connection to Amkena.

The sky, which had been shining white, darkened.

Now it was the heroes’ free time. Normally, it would be the timing to start training with Halgion, but in the past few days, I had stopped my schedule.

“Yurnet, can you hear me? Answer me if you hear.”

I murmured as I sat in my desk chair.

One more time with the ring on his left hand turned.

“Yournet. Yournet.”

No reaction.

I clicked my tongue.

Even though I know the reason, I still feel sick to my stomach.

This happened after Yunet posted a report on the failure of the investigation. Eunet reported to me with a calm expression on her face, but she could tell that she was feeling quite humiliated.

‘maybe… … He must be investigating the El Cid case separately.’

It seemed that he was not going to return until he had certain information.

It’s difficult as it is. ‘Cause I’ve already come to a conclusion

But since this guy doesn’t answer, I can’t do anything.

‘I don’t think anything happened.’

Could anything bad happen to the 6-star, strongest mage?

After completing basic training in the training room of the mansion, I prepared for bed.

“…”

Before turning off the lights and going to bed.

I briefly looked back on these days.

I learned the truth hidden in Pick Me Up, and Amkena grew even more.

Same goes for heroes. Soon we will be evolving to the final grade of 6 stars. I couldn’t even remember when I was at odds with the goblins at level 1.

‘It seems that things are going well.’

Except that Yurnet went into hiding.

Well, time will tell.

I closed my eyes.

‘… … ?’

A strange sense of heterogeneity.

I woke up.

I don’t know if it’s just tossing and turning.

‘Now is the time… … .’

It must have been a deep dawn

I fumbled over the bed.

The dagger that was supposed to be there was out of hand.

I opened my eyes.

and.

In the darkness, the blade dug in without a sound.

“…!”

thud!

I kicked off the bed and jumped out.

When he hung himself, blood was leaking from the shallow cut wound.

If you go a little deeper… … .

<It’s strong. It’s normal to have your throat cut. Did you put steel on your skin?>

dark room.

A whitish figure like a shadow stands there.

‘This bastard… … .’

I immediately reached out.

A dark hole opened, and Bifrost’s blade was pulled out.

<Han Israat.>

The shadow pointed out my name and said.

<Where is the Book of Reversal?>

“…”

<Don’t think about hiding it. I know you have a back row with Niflheim. Did you think you wouldn’t get noticed if you sneaked? It’s hard to ignore us. I live by eating this.>

‘How did you get in?’

In the dimensional rift, a defense team including a memorial service is on standby 24 hours a day.

In addition, various magic traps and surveillance facilities are installed at the outer entrance of the waiting room.

But he broke through that gap and entered my room on the 5th floor?

‘It’s simple.’

It meant that this guy’s stealth skill far exceeded Taonier’s defense level.

‘Minimum master level.’

It even pierced the Black Dragon Lin, which is always activated.

If it wasn’t for Black Dragon Rin, he probably would have had his head cut off as he said.

<Don’t be too scared. I just came to say hello.>

“……Who are you?”

<If you think about it, it will come soon, right? who we are.>

I looked at the shadow in front of my eyes.

Even though it’s right in front of me, I can’t see my face.

‘Is it a recognition obstruction skill?’

Assassin in master class.

My body swayed like fog, and my voice was full of noise as if it had been altered.

Not only the face, but also the body and voice are indistinguishable.

I turned my head quickly.

Who is the assassin in front of you?

This guy knows the book of reverse heaven.

That I am related to Niflheim, too.

Conclusion came soon.

‘Those who followed El Cid.’

Apparently, they sent a punitive force to chase them away.

Didn’t you hear it though?

‘then… … .’

An assassin that even Niflheim’s elite couldn’t find.

It’s not like a master class.

‘Ranker… … class.’

Only one conclusion emerged.

‘Ranked 21st.’

Master name Ttukbaegi oriental medicine.

He was the highest level PVP user on the server, specializing only in assassins.

These guys witnessed the meeting between me and Niflheim while chasing after El Cid after the battle for first place.

At that time, Yurnet’s large-scale surveillance magic surrounded them, but even that seemed to have been tricked. And they must have pursued me as I left for Taoni.

<Now do you know? It’s too late.>

The guy waved his index finger.

And with a strange laugh, he held out an object to me.

<We’ll make sure we keep this troublesome ring. I don’t want any intruders to intervene.>

He spun the glossy black ring around and put it into his bosom.

That was the proof of the Fallen Heaven, the ring I was wearing on my left hand. Niflheim and I were the only means of contact. It seemed to have been taken out during the first raid.

‘… … ha.’

I knew that one day it would happen.

I sighed and pulled up all my strength.

‘There is a chance.’

Assassins are weak in frontal combat.

He couldn’t kill me during the first raid, so it was worth the fight if he took the time to summon the 1st party members.

<Han Israt. If you want to live, prepare the Book of Reverse Heaven by the next visit. Because it’s something that doesn’t suit you. This is a warning.>

“Warning? I’m not sure what you mean.”

I spun my sword.

<Whoops, don’t be afraid. I like it.>

The assassin laughed out loud.

and pick. disappeared without a trace.

When it appeared or when it disappeared, I couldn’t catch that sign at all.

‘Is it the end?’

I put my hand on my neck.

Red blood stained the fingertips.

shit.

This pain in the ass

I opened the door without relaxing.

The large hall of the mansion.

Seven figures dangle from the ceiling.

They all had their eyes wide open and their tongues sticking out.

‘under… … .’

The housekeepers Amkena gave me as a gift.

He was hanged by his neck in the air.

‘The corpse… … It’s damaged.’

Everywhere on the body was hacked.

He would have died in excruciating pain.

pop.

Drops of blood dripping from corpses dripped onto the large display case below.

<Explosion… … .>

lumpy.

All of a sudden, the corpses hanging from the ropes swelled up like balls.

<Art… … .>

‘Such a f*cking foot.’

I kicked off the railing and leaped.

He smashed the window with his body and ran out of the house.

yet.

Wow!

A huge explosion engulfed the mansion.

[warning!]

[Master ‘???”s hero ‘???(???)’ broke into the waiting room!]

[※The intruder cannot be detected by the effect of the special skill.]

It’ll work out once in a while.
