God’s Nemesis Returns Episode 156
101. Lava Lake (3)
Choaaaak!
Shihyeon’s Heavenly Sword cut off the giant Magma Drake’s front leg.
“omg!”
“Huh, in one room?”
“amazing…….”
“Keeeeeek!”
Watching the Magma Drake’s front legs get cut off.
Sihyeon turned around and looked at Arthur, raising the corners of her mouth.
“Please focus on protecting the players.”
“Ah Okay.”
Pfft!
Soon, strength gathered in Sihyeon’s thighs.
Pfft!
His body leapt forward like a bullet.
‘Even if it’s Lee Si-Hyeon, there’s no way he can catch that Magma Drake in one go, right?’
Arthur swallowed dryly.
‘Magma Drake seems to have weakened… … but even the number one ranked monster in the UK would be unable to handle it. What on earth is he planning to do on his own?’
The guys Arthur has encountered have such high stamina, physical, and magical resistances.
It was natural to have such concerns.
but.
“What is this… … .”
Arthur’s pupils dilated endlessly as he looked straight ahead.
‘Easy? No… … It’s not like you can catch it that easily?’
Sihyeon surrenders herself to the bloody storm.
He was cutting down the magma drakes that were rushing at him one by one.
Blood wind.
I was literally dancing, becoming the eye of a bloody storm.
The scales and lava of the magma drake that touched the dance were cut away without mercy.
‘Hey, is this possible?’
I couldn’t believe it even though I saw it with my own eyes.
***
The physical abilities of the Magma Drakes were significantly reduced due to the powerful debuffs inflicted by Thunderbolt.
Sihyeon could easily cut up the guys’ bodies.
That wasn’t all.
[ sucks the blood (lava) of the Magma Drake.]
[Item, ‘Cheon Gun Cloud Sword (C)’ increases damage by 12% with absorbed blood (lava).]
[Item, ‘Cheon Gun Cloud Sword (C)’ increases physical and magical penetration by 2% with the blood (lava) absorbed.]
The effect of , which is linked with the Heavenly Sword and Fallen Glory.
By drinking the blood coming from those guys, the Thousand-Armed Sword was becoming stronger and stronger.
Thanks to the obtained after catching Balrog, the rotation speed was faster and the numbers were also increasing quickly.
‘You’re saying that you’re moving through the air like that? No… … That’s not air. You’re using the frozen parts of the Magma Drake’s skin as stepping stones to move.’
The skin of a Magma Drake frozen by exposure to the ‘Status Abnormality: Freeze’ effect caused by lightning.
Sihyeon was moving forward, stepping exactly on that surface.
and.
Crunch.
[Excellent! You’ve defeated the Magma Drake.]
[Get 21,000 points!]
One of the Magma Drakes that Arthur and Brittany were fighting was instantly killed with his heart cut out.
[Item, ‘Night’s Curtain (C)’ is drawn.]
As the purple night approaches.
Sihyeon’s body, with all stats increased, moved faster and more agile.
‘They say that when someone does something so easily, they are incredibly skilled… ‘
Arthur swallowed dry saliva.
‘Is this exactly the situation right now?’
Watching Sihyeon reacting as if he were a machine.
Arthur nodded.
He himself could not move so nimbly.
Even with the help of the wizard Brittany.
But in Arthur’s eyes.
I could see the magma drakes gathering in the distance.
“Fallen King! Be careful!”
But even without Arthur’s warning, the vision was real.
I already knew what was happening far away.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Magma Drake.
Those with high intelligence get hurt and their bodies rot away.
They joined forces to survive.
Within no less than nine magma drakes were thrusting their snouts close to each other.
Kwaaaaang!
It spewed out lava all at once.
A breath that only the Dragon Clan can use.
Of course, it was weaker than what a real dragon would use.
Because it was an ability that was like a finishing move to those who possessed the blood of the dragon.
That power was no joke.
‘It’s too late to dodge considering the range.’
Sihyeon raised the corners of her mouth.
‘Breaking through head-on.’
Suddenly.
Sihyeon grabbed the Cheonjongun Sword with both hands.
Currently, due to the rules of the Iron Maze, it is impossible to use the teleportation technique .
Even if I were to write , I couldn’t endure that lava waterfall that lasted for more than 30 seconds.
‘If you roll your feet to dodge, the players behind you may die. If you do that, the stats you get as a reward will be greatly reduced.’
Shh.
‘That can’t be.’
[The knowledge of the item, ‘Draupnir (D)’ begins to shine.]
[Activate Odin’s 7th rune magic, ‘Rune Magic: Rune of Fire Resistance (??)’.]
Draupnir on Shihyeon’s left hand shines.
His body was shot towards the magma breath.
Normally, the magma breath would have melted Shihyeon’s entire body.
The storm surrounding the and the resistance of the ‘Rune of Flame Resistance’ protected Sihyeon’s body.
[Skill, ‘Rune Reinforcement (S)’ is activated.]
[Odin’s 7th rune magic, ‘Rune Magic: Rune of Fire Resistance (??)’ is strengthened.]
Sihyeon breathes in the remaining magic energy.
Draupnir glowed even brighter and its fire resistance skyrocketed.
This wasn’t the end.
High magic resistance of fallen glory.
And if you add in the ‘Buff: Archangel’s Grace (S)’ obtained after the fourth catastrophe,
In addition to the already high magic resistance, attribute resistance has also increased by 100.
No matter how much Magma Drake’s breath was used, it could not penetrate Shihen’s fire resistance.
“Whoaaaaap!”
With one shout, he unleashes a long magma breath.
Sihyeon arrived in front of the guys.
“Kirrrrrr?”
“Karrrrr!”
Is it because I breathed out with all my might?
The guys showed their confusion by moving much slower than before.
Because none of the guys thought that Sihyeon would ‘survive’.
“High risk, high return.”
Sihyeon raised the corners of her mouth.
“It’s just the thing for me.”
[Item, ‘Fallen Glory (C)’ shows its teeth.]
Within, tentacles emerged one by one from the expanded night and bound the bodies of the magma drakes.
If it was the original Magma Drake, it would have been difficult to tie it like this.
Because they were guys who were covered in debuffs all over their bodies thanks to the thunderbolt and even breathed out ‘breath’.
You could tie it up as much as you want.
“good.”
Crunch.
Starting with one Magma Drake whose neck was cut off.
“Keeeeeek!”
The remaining magma drakes began to thrash about in vain.
***
‘Wow, that’s great… … .’
Seeing a vision of combining and linking multiple divine items.
Arthur swallowed dryly.
‘Such powerful magma drakes were cut down without even being able to exert any strength… … .’
Because I’ve dealt with it in person.
Arthur knew better than anyone how powerful those guys were.
“It was hard enough to deal with just one, but now there are nine… … .”
“This is crazy… … .”
“Tea, it’s on a different level.”
“A player who uses the power of God… … . Yes. I’ve heard of it. There’s a monster in Korea called the Fallen King.”
“The rumors aren’t just for nothing.”
Saaaaah!
The players clenched their fists, barely able to suppress the goosebumps running down their spines.
Players who were watching Sihyeon’s incredible performance from afar were overcome with various emotions.
‘Someday, we too… … .’
‘I feel uncomfortable because I feel like I’m being overly reliant.’
‘Hmm… … .’
Inferiority, elation, relief, excitement, envy, jealousy, jealousy.
They were all familiar to Sihyeon.
‘Yes. They all survived.’
Hooooooooooo!
Finally, with the swirling blood wind.
Crunch.
The last drake’s head was cut off.
‘This is enough.’
[I can’t believe it! I’ve killed all the rulers of the lava lake!]
[Since all the demons around the lava lake have been defeated, the sub-quest ends early!]
[Time left until sub-quest ends: 1 hour 14 minutes.]
[Sub-quest, has been cleared.]
[You gain 4 distributable stats.]
[All players survived!]
[Grants 1 additional shareable stat for each two surviving players.]
[You gain 25 distributable stats.]
“What the hell?”
“and…….”
“This is crazy.”
For ridiculous compensation.
The players shouted in excitement.
“The Fallen King! The Fallen King! The Fallen King!”
“Lee Si-hyeon! Lee Si-hyeon! Lee Si-hyeon!”
There are a whopping 29 distributable stats.
Considering that this is a reward that can only be obtained by reaching level 29.
For players who received this reward simply by ‘gathering here’, there was no greater fortune than this.
-Kekekeke. Contrary to your looks, you’re embarrassed by all this cheering?
‘Noisy.’
Mehen smiled in surprise as she watched Sihyeon, who was acting embarrassed while pretending not to know anything.
“Kurururung! (Don’t bother the butler!)”
-Wow! This tiny thing… … .
After that, I lightly put down the snake and the firefly that were scurrying overhead.
Sihyeon looked at the next reward.
‘This is the reward for surviving. There are no additional rewards.’
[You have acquired the item, ‘Maze Movement Ticket (A)’.]
[Maze Pass (A)]
#This is the reward for defeating the hidden boss in the Dwarf’s Maze, the Iron Maze.
Material Items
Effect
You can move to any maze location you want.
‘Okay, I got what I wanted.’
A maze travel ticket that allows you to move ‘anywhere’ in the maze.
Because it was an essential reward to obtain the hidden piece that Sihyeon wanted.
Sihyeon happily put this ticket-like item into Kibisis.
[Item, ‘Kibisis (A)’ blooms.]
After getting the reward.
Sihyeon opened the kibisis and swept away the corpses and items of the Magma Drakes and Magma Fish.
‘Yeah… … You deserve that.’
‘Well, we can’t move through the maze with these guys’ bodies.’
‘If he wasn’t the fallen king anyway… … .’
Because if there had been no Sihyeon in the first place, all of them would have been dead.
No player objected to this.
[Item, ‘Magma Drake’s Essence (B)’ x10 has been acquired.]
[Magma Drake’s Essence (B)]
#Magma Drake has the essence of lava. It will be useful for exploring the maze!
Material Items
Effect
[Fire attribute +50]
After collecting the ‘Magma Drake’s Essence (B)’, which increases the fire attribute by a significant amount for a B-grade item.
Sihyeon muttered to herself.
‘Before the return, only 10 people survived and got 9 stats. I was lucky.’
Level 1, the most difficult place to survive in the Iron Maze.
Lava lake.
The average player would consider coming here as ‘bad luck’.
I thought it was impossible to come here and survive.
It wasn’t just ordinary players.
Even powerful high-rankers in the UK’s top 5, players as powerful as Arthur and Brittany, thought this way.
But Sihyeon was different.
He considered himself ‘lucky’ that his starting point was a lava lake.
“Is everyone feeling okay?”
“yes.”
“Thanks.”
“thank you.”
There were injured players, but no seriously injured or dead players.
That was a good thing.
But when everyone was sighing in relief.
Sihyeon was just staring into space with worried eyes.
[Time left until sub-quest ends: 58 minutes.]
Even though the sub-quest has ended.
The holographic window hasn’t disappeared yet.
‘Why? Why is it like this… … .’
Before the regression, when there were 50 people gathered, this kind of thing didn’t happen.
Back then, all we could do was hold out until the time limit ran out.
‘Yeah. Back then, it was crazy hard to just catch three Magma Drakes. And a lot of players died. Wait a minute!’
Sihyeon’s pupils grew wide.
‘Now that I think about it, the demons retreated and the island sank at the same time the sub-quest ended. Then, the time on the hologram window… … .’
gulp.
After finishing his thoughts, Sihyeon opened his mouth and looked at the players.
“Everyone, listen carefully.”
In Sihyeon’s words.
The noisy players suddenly became quiet.
“When that time is over, this island will sink.”
