. Citadel of Giants (1)

A huge white tree towering in the middle of the citadel of giants.

[Paradise Lost in Dreams]

A 12-star barrier with absolute judgment effect, it is one of the strongest barriers under the 30th floor.

If you go inside, you will see not only the upside down, left and right sides are reversed, but also the movement of mana flowing along the blood vessels will be distorted.

For knights and moorims, where fine control is life, fighting giants in the barrier was like committing suicide.

'Besides, we can't even estimate exactly how many kinds of curses there are that confuse our senses and abilities.'

Just listing the big ones would be enough.

The dreamy paradise where the white tree is planted is still synthesizing a new curse even at this moment.

It is not for nothing that the saying that giants within the fortress are invincible.

'But, it's well worth the risk.'

If you attack the fortress, it is counted as attacking one floor.

In other words, humanity can earn 90 days more. If you deal with the boss monster, you could get a huge reward in addition.

'First of all, I'll have to figure it out slowly around the fortress.'

Jin-hyeok, who was hiding in the grass, looked around through 'Cheong-ra-mang'.

By the way.

'Look at this?'

Jinhyuk's eyes narrowed.

A large number of mana reactions were caught in the wide-ranging use of Cheon-ra-ji-mang (天羅地網).

It's not just giants.

The Empire and the Moorim were also encamped here.

In particular, the Empire side was secretly deploying troops from as far away as possible.

'Are you planning something like this in the back of your mind while doing something like entrusting it to me?'

I don't know why the words suddenly changed.

There must have been some dreadful plan.

On the other hand, there were also very familiar characters from the Moorim side.

Namgungcheon.

China's top ranker who led the Chinese Guild was at the forefront.

And.

Beside him, Sullin Baek, who is fiddling with plum leaves... .

'Cheonyuseong.'

Even the jingle-eyed wretch revealed his appearance through the spur of the moment.

I wanted to believe that it was not even one in ten thousand, but this proves that Cheon Yu-seong is with Moorim.

Huh. Is that swordsman attached to the other side too?

Elise clenched her chin and muttered.

There must be something.

What is the situation.... Just by looking at it, the boss is so vicious that he ran away. Why didn't he usually treat his subordinates well? Everyone runs away because he eats them every day... Eup!

Elise, who had been talking hard, suddenly struggled all over her body.

Something filled his mouth.

A lump with an unusual aroma and taste.

He tried to spit it out right away, but it was after Jinhyuk had already covered his mouth tightly with his hand.

Dog poop is medicine for a kid who talks nonsense...

Again... uh!?

Don't worry. It's not real dog poop. Instead, I added a lot of seasoning I prepared for a dinner party this time.

The wasabi that I brought with me because the fish of the empire was so fresh and had a good texture, so I was thinking of making sushi or eating it.

By adding mint chocolate for dessert, a pretty perfect dessert was born.

This would be an appropriate punishment for damaging the company's reputation with rumors.

Uhhhhhhhhh!

The nape of Elise's neck became red, and then her entire face was dyed red.

But it was only for a short time.

" "

After a few tens of seconds passed, Elise, who had been waving her arms and legs violently, became quiet.

Next. Someone who has something to say. Please offer your opinion without reproach.

Jinhyuk smiled brightly.

As a representative of Goin Corporation, he was always ready to accept employee complaints with an open mind.

"No, Master. I have no complaints with the Master. As a faithful subordinate, I will fight hard until my bones are worn out."

Feeling a sense of crisis, T-Bone hurriedly rattled the lower pipe.

He was quite quick to see if he had heard anything from the sweet potato and the spirit beasts.

...I, too, am satisfied. Now, the master has truly become the Empress Dowager-sama's best disciple.

Wolyoung also nodded hastily.

Okay. I don't think there are any more complaints. Then, I'll explain what each of you must do from now on, so listen carefully.

Jinhyuk started explaining the operation in a soft voice.

kuung! kuung! kuung!

On the way to the fortress, a heavy impact sound resounded.

Kurre...

A giant with a height of about 7m was patrolling with a two-handed battle axe.

As soon as the surrounding mountain beasts and monsters felt the presence of a giant, they all ran away, so there was no sound of grasshoppers around.

That was normal.

Even giants have taken it for granted.

as soon as.

until now.

Cree?

In front of the giant's path, a man with a snot stood there.

Were you happy to find an unexpected snack?

Saliva began to flow around the giant's mouth.

No need to worry about this.

It must be eaten with bones.

thud! thud! thud!

It was time for the giant to close the distance in one breath at a quick pace.

Chic!

Suddenly, with a heavy shock, his body shook violently.

A terrible pain pierced his brain.

Aww! My my proxy! My legs!

The giant clasped his ventilated legs with both hands.

Hmm...

Suddenly, a bow was held in the man's hand.

If you mix red magic bullets with blood magic, the pain almost doubles. I didn't know this would work even with highly resistant giants, but it's amazing.

Jinhyuk nodded his head as if he was interested.

Aaaaaah!

The enraged giant limped and grabbed the battle ax again.

Boo woo woo!

A terrifying blast sounded as if it would split the heavens and the earth.

But.

I couldn't feel the taste of the flesh being cut and the bones being crushed.

Rather, I felt a completely different kind of pain in my whole body.

Aaaaaah!

I wondered about dazzling golden waves rising from the dirt on the floor.

Soon, dozens of ropes bound the giant's body tightly.

It is a crowd control skill based on the divine series mana of 'Mandala'.

A rather plausible temporary prison was created when frost feet made with 'glacier molding' stuck to the soles of the feet.

'Since there are many copied skills, there are infinitely many things that can be used.'

We still have a long way to go, but... .

Looking at the unique abilities and skills that were gradually accumulating, I couldn't help but feel proud.

'It will be even more amazing in the future.'

Top rankers and residents If they copy all the abilities of the divinities beyond them.

And if you can fuse skills of a higher level based on those abilities!

Then you'll be able to fight again with the guys on the last floor of the tower.

As I thought about it, my heart started beating with a pleasant sound.

Ughhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Don't try. You can never get out of it by your own strength.

What the hell... what is it? How can humans have this kind of ability...

The wizards of the Empire were giants he had met many times, but none of them had such a short casting time.

It's a connection that I don't even dare to approach at all.

It's all nonsense. I'm going to ask a few questions from now on, and I hope you answer them sincerely.

I have nothing to say. Kill me... La!

Hey. Even if you die, you can't sell things about your people?

Yes. It would be better for me to die alone... than to throw everyone away to save my life.

this.

I'm about to cry

Is this homosexuality?

Jinhyuk pretended to wipe his eyes with his fingertips.

Of course, there is no such thing as moisture around the dry, dry eyes.

Where, that heart. I hope it doesn't change.

Jinhyuk stepped back a little further.

And the arrow was hung on the protest.

If there is something a little peculiar, is it that it has a blunt iron ball instead of a sharp arrowhead?

It was an arrow that focused more on destroying something than penetrating power.

The giant bit his molars with a determined face.

Even if you die like this, there will be no rest.

By the way.

Whoops!

The moment the arrow penetrates a part of the body.

The giant felt his beliefs crumble like a sand castle.

Uh... uh... ah?

Even though there is a degree of pain, this has crossed that line for a long time.

Hmm. Maybe it's because I'm not good at shooting bows these days. I was hit in a very bad place. I was trying to aim for the head, but the aim was too low?

Jinhyeok once again threw an arrow at the protest.

Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

kwaduk!

make a sound Something must have been broken this time.

Goooooooooooooooooooo!

I'm sorry, haha. I think my hand slipped again. Maybe it's because I met Mr. Orun. My hands keep slipping too.

Sa, please save me. Ji... I will answer any questions you may have. So please stop now.

At this point, nothing but despair remained in the giant's eyes.

But it was too late.

The time for peaceful resolution has passed.

Before, it was the face of Corporal No. 3 Bong going to the battlefield. Why are you curling up your tail now?

As long as the work is hard work, there must be a price for it.

I'm not going to stop until I run out of this. If I have something to say, then I'll go back and give you a chance to say it again.

If it's me, the remaining arrows...

The giant's gaze turned to Jinhyuk's waist.

At first glance, it seemed that the number of arrows remaining in the quiver was well over 20.

mother .

The giant closed his eyes.

As the sun went over the ridge, countless stars were cast in the night sky.

A garrison located west of the citadel of the giants.

Numerous torches were lit up in this place where the elites of the Moorim were located.

In case the giants jumped out or the Empire's detachment was attacked by any chance, the guards had also been deployed without any leaks.

If this were the case, not even a single rat would pass.

Everyone was so sure until the human doll appeared from the shadows.

A man in a black robe appeared through the tent to avoid the guards.

Are you an intruder?

This feeling...

" "

There were three people who reacted sensitively to the flag.

Namgungcheon, Baek Sullin, and Cheon Yooseong, who were resting in their respective tents, flew in the direction of the shadow.

There .

A boy with a young face was standing there.

It was Wolyeong, who was the number one salesperson in the Black Punghoe.

"Aren't you the one who was with Jinhyuk Kang during the European Outbreak?"

Sullin Baek discovered Wolyeong's identity at once.

Namgungcheon's eyebrows were curved in an inverted manner.

It's Jinhyuk Kang. That fucking bastard I want to chew on. Why did the guy following him come here?

"I have come to tell you what the Lord has said."

Wolyoung spoke calmly.

Tomorrow night. Some of the barriers spread out in the fortress of the giants will disappear. It will be a perfect opportunity to attack. The lord wants you not to miss that opportunity.

It's ridiculous. Are you telling me to believe it now?

If you believe it or not, can't you just check it with your own eyes tomorrow night?

If the barrier remains as it is, that's it if you don't attack.

If the barrier is weak, you can pierce the gap.

There is nothing to lose either way.

Just one thing.

Assuming what you said is true. Then, why is Kang Jinhyuk telling this?

There is no way that serpent can selflessly share such advanced information.

no one else knows

Namgungcheon, who had been burned several times, was suspicious of anything Jinhyuk said.

I don't know the master's intentions too well. The only thing for sure is that... if you don't step forward, we'll move on the side of the Empire.

The base is one.

There are two forces targeting this place.

One of them is that sucking your fingers is inevitable.

Remember, the barrier is weakening tomorrow at midnight.

Wolyeong, who had said everything she had to say, tried to turn into a shadow again.

Then, as if thinking of something, he glanced at Cheon Yooseong.

And lastly.

A cold voice pierced the eardrums of Cheon Yuseong.

You said that you would hang it upside down in front of the living room of the pre-medical department of Korea University. Thinking about the old days, he added that he would allow a pair of panties.

" "

creepy

A cold sweat ran down Cheon Yu-seong's spine.
