Episode 108.
“This is…you wouldn’t have found it if it weren’t for your sense of smell, Oppa.”
“Right?”
The group conserved while looking at the twisted gate of a hemispherical shape buried naturally in the ground. When he looked up, he could barely see the sky at the end of a long tunnel. He only remembered digging vigorously.
“You can’t see it buried underground with visual skills, and there’s no way you could detect it with auditory skills or other skills…”
“That skill must be made…”
Jung Si-woo looked at the gate, leaving behind Soo Ah-rin and Yong Se-ha, who were deeply impressed. Unlike Otaru, the gate was damaged as the fragments of Setnak emerged into the world. But what was interesting was that the power of god left behind the gate was the driving force behind it. Unlike ordinary Mana, its characteristics were firm, so it was consumed very slowly.
“If this happens, the hypothesis I made might be right. Hmm…I can’t do this, but if I’m so good at reasoning like this, I can’t really see any shortcomings in me…”
“Don’t worry, Oppa. You sometimes have a definite disadvantage that’s surprisingly unfortunate.”
“Okay, let’s go in.”
“There is also that you like ignoring unfavorable words…”
Jung Si-woo held the two supporters tightly in his arms and lowered his tail into the gate. The gate, which only accepted the existence of the world but rejected all other beings, failed to overcome the coercion and penetration of Jung Si-woo. The world had changed. A sense similar to that of using the gate of the B&Y building with Marina hit Jung Si-woo, but it didn’t feel very strange because the level of the gate was different. He let out a sigh when he saw that he had passed the gate safely.
“Whoo…”
“Huh. Are we sure we’re here?”
“Hmm?”
The world was dark, but not because they were underground. He could sense the murky and smoky air throughout his body. However, the world was dark.
[You snuck into the 73rd castle of Setnak in World Spunova. Setnak’s species are irregular, and they add depth to the record without losing power over time. Although it is a castle located in the lower half of the 100 castles owned by Setnak, their power, which has been rotting for many years, is as powerful as it can be.]
[Setnak already recognizes you. He is interested in you, who has the ability to rob the god of power, and he wants to welcome you to his realm without fear. But what awaits at the end is eternal darkness and subordination.]
[Only three hours are left before the exit gate closes. Destroy Setnak’s mana as much as you can and escape. If the gate closes, you’ll be trapped in this world forever.]
“That’s the same specification as Laia’s temple. I like it because it’s simple. The time limit and the difficulty level itself seem to have gotten a little harder compared to last time.”
Jung Si-woo nodded as he quickly read the message that came to his mind. It was probably because Setnak was a much stronger god than Laia.
“We don’t have sight, sir.”
“This is magical darkness. I mean, he’s the god that rules the undead…”
“But I can see…Ah.”
Meanwhile, Soo Ah-rin and Yong Se-ha’s powerful sense of sight were completely blocked. Jung Si-woo soon realized that he was looking into the darkness clearly.
“You don’t have visual skills, don’t you?”
“Yeah, that’s bad luck.”
If he hadn’t made visual skill in advance, Jung Si-woo would have relied on his instincts to move since this castle was surrounded by darkness. As Soo Ah-rin said, it is magical darkness, so simply having good eyesight couldn’t breakthrough. It would be impossible without the eyes of Jung Si-woo, who had a vision skill that could break down magic and curses, and also recognize what was ‘real’.”
“But…well, having no sight might be better for you.”
“What does that mean, Oppa?”
Soo Ah-rin casually asked him even though she knew what the answer might be. Shortly after that, she smelled rot, receiving her answer.
[Guuuaaaaa.]
[Setnak’s orders…]
[Him…catch him…]
It wasn’t known exactly where they were located. What Jung Si-woo could confirm was that this was a very narrow hallway, and zombies and skeletons were approaching from both ends of the corridor. Setnak had been watching him since the moment he stepped over the gate. This was certainly ‘hospitality.’
“Huh…no, I don’t.”
“This has become tricky.”
Jung Si-woo smiled awkwardly as he checked the gradually narrowing gap. The sledgehammer he used was big enough, but it wasn’t something you could freely swing in such a narrow hallway. However, it was tantalizing to face the undead with just his fists.
“Let’s breakthrough with the cruel charge skill.”
“Hyeong-nim, but you have the ghosts.”
“Ah.”
Jung Si-woo only realized that he had the strength to play without being swayed by the space around him after listening to Yong Se-ha. He immediately summoned all ghosts except for those watching his parents and Kim Ha-ryong.
[We will serve our master.]
[Give me any orders.]
[Gu, guaaaaaaaa?]
Approximately 100 ghosts filled the hallway in an instant and confusing the approaching undead.
“Clear me a path.”
[By your order.]
[Charge!]
At Jung Si-woo’s command, 100 ghosts started surging forward. It was really pleasant to see zombies and skeletons being swept away by the ghost legion. He realized that it was quite attractive to be able to control the battlefield at will without having to move. But if there’s one thing, he didn’t like…
“It’s slower than I expected…”
[Guuooo…]
“Get out of here, man.”
As he stayed still, he encountered the monsters who had narrowed the siege behind me. However, Jung Si-woo didn’t move because he was uncomfortable and not because he was afraid of them. When he lightly pushed his tailback without even looking, the zombie, which had its filthy teeth bared, was smashed.
“Hmm…?”
And it wasn’t until he broke one with his hand (or his tail rather) that Jung Si-woo realized something.
“These aren’t normal zombies, are they?”
“Don’t ask me. I just came out for a walk in the dark garden.”
“Just the regular zombie’s level is over 120?”
The zombies that appeared in the Grand Canyon weren’t low-level zombies, but these guys were completely different. Was it because this was Setnak’s territory? Or was it because these things had become stronger over time, supplementing records, as they had been shown in the message?
“If it’s just a normal zombie and skeleton…hmph.”
[Goooooooooooooh!
[Kihig! Kihaaaa!]
He walked forward leisurely, dealing with the skeletons and zombies running from behind with only his tail. The Ghost Legion also trampled on the ones in front of him.
[Dying is…strictly…]
[Come together, come together. Our master wants us to break through here.]
Jung Si-woo’s ghost legion had raised its level, so it was breaking through without much damage due to its advantage over the undead. However, the speed was slow. With this momentum, he would face zombies and skeleton for three hours before running away pathetically.
“Whoo…”
Jung Si-woo slowly opened his eyes and expanded his senses. The five senses skill resonated to obtain information from the outside world. He added his intuition to this space and identified the 73 castles. Of course, it was hard to grasp the space perfectly like the dragon in the dream, but at least there were results.
“Good.”
He stretched his right fist against the wall. The interior walls of a corridor painted with gray rocks, not much different from the surroundings. Without a single ornament, the plain wall rang for a moment.
“We can get out through here!”
[Goooooooooooh!]
Sensing his abnormal behavior, the undead attacked him more fiercely from behind, but his thick tail swung sharply to block them. Meanwhile, Jung Si-woo pulled his fist back slightly and used mana, and the next moment, he swung it vigorously!
[Setnak’s 73rd castle destruction rate: 0.1%]
BOOM!
Even with the power of Setnak, the strengthened wall collapsed in vain, revealing the same dark space beyond it. There was a group of neatly placed decorative armor in a wider hallway with a higher ceiling. He had seen similar scenes in a lot of fantasy novels. Perhaps it was the kind of undead that haunted inanimate objects.
“Ghosts, ignore zombies and skeleton and come this way!”
[Okay!]
While the ghosts rumbled out of the narrow hallway, Jung Si-woo took a hammer out of the inventory and slammed the walls on both sides until they collapsed.
[Setnak’s 73rd castle destruction rate: 0.7%]
[Goooooooooooo!]
[Running away…catch…!]
Most of the undead who followed behind Jung Si-woo and the Ghost Legion were crushed by the falling wall, and the rest of the undead were trapped in the bulkhead made up of debris and undead bodies.
“What do we do when we go back?”
“I just need to destroy the castle and find the gate that’s connected to the outside.”
“You’ve been refusing to sneak into places, and by the way…”
He destroyed the hallway just because it was an uncomfortable place to swing his hammer! The living armor began to move in an unwelcoming manner in the face of the ghost legion as he expected. They wanted Jung Si-woo to deal with them himself, but Jung Si-woo’s interest wasn’t in them! He was just thinking of destroying the castle!
“Okay, let’s get started…ouchaaaaaaaaaaa!”
He held the hammer in both hands, causing it to shine brilliantly with his mana. The alternating two-handed slugging brought down the hallway wall before he deliberately magnified the hammer to the ceiling and hit the Living Armor that ran to him to escape the Ghost Legion’s airstrike.
[Setnak’s 73rd castle destruction rate: 2.8%]
“Catastropheeeeeee!”
“It’s not a catastrophe. It’s destruction!”
Jung Si-woo began to run wild. Sensing his existence clearly, Setnak’s subordinates began to charge to him with their god’s strength, but by then, Jung Si-woo, who had already destroyed the corridor and a floor, and was moving on to the next floor!
