I Found the Regressor With My Reflexes

10 – Special Dungeon

You said it would ‘allow’ you to use the special dungeon.

‘If you say that, doesn’t it give the normal position a choice?’

… But why am I here

Inside the dungeon.

I was taken to a strange place with three days of vacation right in front of me, and I couldn’t come to my senses.

I was even in a hotel.

I was able to sleep well!

However, Han Seo-yeon, a regressor who left her blood and tears in the future, was laughing without even knowing how I felt.

“I never thought Gabriel would give me a real reward. Good job.”

“Wasn’t it a feeling to eat and fall rather than a reward…?”

“I wish I had received something.”

I think Seol-i said something very exaggerated, but he must have heard it wrong?

But I can see why society doesn’t show that you’re good at work.

I never thought I’d give you a reward like this.

“…Let’s just attack as quickly as possible and go out to rest.”

“Good posture.”

“Whoa.”

“Ahahahaha…”

What can I do?

Now that the situation has come to this, we need to finish it quickly and leave.

Still, since you gave it as a reward, you should be able to get something good.

The dungeon looked like a dark underground labyrinth, but after walking for a bit, it split into three paths.

A notification that appears only then.

▷ You woke up in a dark dungeon. Join forces with your friends and break through the dungeon!

– If even one person dies in a special dungeon, everyone will return to the waiting room.

– Time remaining: 2 days 23 hours 58 minutes

For now, not dying is a pretty good thing.

I was a bit reluctant to go back to the waiting room.

… It seemed like he would let me spin round and round for three days.

Couldn’t it be?

“No special explanation.”

“I guess so.”

“So, where are you going?”

“If you choose the wrong path, something big will happen.”

Looking at the deaths listed, the probability of that happening seems quite high.

Since I was thinking so much, Seoyeon Han pushed me forward.

“Oh, why?”

“You have superpowers now.”

“Huh, no.”

… I want to refute it, but in fact, it was right that I took the lead.

I’m in a bad mood.

“Isn’t this a violation of human rights?”

So I resisted a bit.

“Show me what real human rights violations are?”

“Mr. Ha.”

That’s how timid rebellion in front of an unreasonable strongman ended.

“…Brother fighting!”

Let’s take the first step on the middle road while being comforted by Seol-i, who has at least a piece of conscience left.

– Chin.

“””….”””

Nothing happened.

Looking like it’s okay here, I turned around and tried to beckon.

– Tongue.

I bumped into a transparent wall.

– Empty.

‘What is this?’

Even if you tap it with your hand, something is obviously blocking it.

In addition, I could only see the two of them murmuring on the other side, as if the sound was being blocked.

I wonder if it was the same for both of them.

“──. ─.”

“──?”

After talking about something, Seoyeon Han took the lead this time and headed to her right.

… Then, it was separated by a transparent wall that appeared again.

Is it a structure that requires one person to enter at each crossroads?

If this is the case, Seol-i is alone, will it be okay?

I ate some fruit, so I won’t be completely weak….

‘… Let’s start with me first.’

While I was walking, I was trying so hard to get rid of my worries.

Suddenly, a voice came from beneath my feet.

I looked down at her to see what was going on.

A sound was coming from her black cuboid.

‘A walkie-talkie… ?’

I was momentarily puzzled because it was so unexpected.

“…I’m listening.”

Even Seol-i interrupted, so he quickly came to his senses and answered.

As I explained while feeling the atmosphere as if I had suddenly arrived at an escape room cafe, I realized that all three entered the same type of room.

Beside the way you came in, there is a device that can set the number with the arrow buttons – somewhere resembling a boiler thermostat.

A room in the form of a door in front of the passage and the number ’10’ written on it.

As I watched the strange harmony of the underground labyrinth and modern culture, I called myself an experiment man into the walkie-talkie.

“Do I look up the numbers?”

Saying that, let’s operate the device displaying the number ‘0’ and raise it to ‘1’.

“Me too. I’ll try one more time just in case.”

This time, ‘1’ is raised to ‘2’.

“Hmm.”

Then what do the numbers mean?

As we looked up each other’s numbers one at a time, the number written on the door was ‘6’ before we knew it.

Anyway, Seol-i’s guess seemed correct.

After several discussions, let’s set the numbers to Snow White 2, Na 4, and Han Seo-yeon 4 for a total of 10.

“Greuk…”

“Kahuh…”

“That’s great…”

Suddenly, four zombies were summoned in front of me.

“Ugh.”

How could goblin zombies be so-so, but human corpses are a bit so-.

The moment I thought that, my superpowers were activated.

… The zombie in front suddenly stopped moving and she collapsed.

“Huh?”

“That…there were also four of them, but when the superpowers were activated, one zombie fell down. Is everyone okay?”

Seeing that she suddenly fell paralyzed? Petrification? Is it that type of debuff?

“Hmm… I’ll get it first.”

I don’t think anything really happened if the regressor didn’t feel it.

Is this only happening in my room?

‘What is it?’

However, even after worrying, there was no clue, so I left my reluctance behind and ran into the zombies.

“Kyahahahaha—!”

As expected, they were the ones who reacted promptly, unlike a corpse.

[Plunder (B+) is activated. Please select a loot target.]

[Target – Loot the stats of human zombies for a certain period of time.]

[Muscle strength increases by 2.]

[Agility increases by 1.]

[Stamina increases by 1.]

Activating the perk and accelerating once more, I was able to dig into it with ease.

Immediately broke the skull of one zombie with the shield and then distanced myself from the other two.

“Hmm.”

As expected, it’s a pity that there is no exhilaration during berserk.

But now there was a calm reason.

I made the best use of him and focused my senses on the location where his heart would be, and I felt a quiet beat and magical energy.

Remembering the feeling of using ground leveling and the feeling of giving orders to Seol-i, I conveyed my will to that magic.

Then, magical energy crawled out of the heart.

“Huh.”

He moved it towards his sword arm.

Honestly, I wanted to push it all the way to the sword, but it would scatter as soon as it left the body.

“Huh!”

Let’s swing his arm as if to get rid of that regret.

– Quadduk.

The heads of the two zombies in the path of the sword were crushed and then fell.

… Done.

When I was in Gobrick, I failed because of the side effects of berserk and my physical condition was not good.

How did you succeed this time?

However, when I tried to do it again, it didn’t work, so I thought I needed a situation where I could focus more.

… Like before, it was like a battle situation.

After that, I poked at the zombie that was still lying there, and when there was no response, I picked up the walkie-talkie I had put on the floor right before the fight.

“This is the end.”

I can hear Seoyeon Han’s voice right away.

… Also, it’s a bit late for New Year’s Eve.

‘But why did he really die?’

Because he’s flipping zombies here and there while being so puzzled.

I got a call from Seol-i, and at the same time the door opened.

“Oh.”

The next room we reached through the door looked the same as the previous one.

Anything different.

“The number is 20.”

That’s a lot.＞

A lot of guesses have been made, but first we’ll have to solve the room.

“Seol-ah, pick 1.”

“Oh, then brother…”

“I’m going to do 1 too?”

“Yes?”

“…I die for real.”

“No, give me a ride.”

Let’s take the returner bus too.

Of course, I was rejected like a dog.

There was a little fuss like that.

In the end, it was decided to distribute 3 Beksul, 7 Na, and 10 Han Seo-yeon.

This time, as soon as we matched the sum, zombies appeared.

“Cheer.”

I am dead.

… What?

* * *

When I came to my senses, I was in the waiting room.

What the hell did you die for?

I see Seol-i, who seems surprised by the sudden change of situation, and Han Seo-yeon, who is approaching this way.

“No, I died suddenly.”

“I know. I almost got hit.”

“You too?”

I turned my head to Seol-i just in case.

“What happened? Why…”

She seemed completely oblivious to the situation.

Then Seol-i was fine, but she was just as good as me and Han Seo-yeon?

First of all, Han Seo-yeon, a life senior who knows nothing about the cause of death, explained it.

“It was an instant death curse.”

“An instant death curse?”

“Yes, I cut myself with my sword, so that’s for sure.”

I was almost startled by the colorless and odorless curse of instant death, but I was able to calm myself down in an instant thanks to the eccentricity of a regressor who cut it with a sword.

Still, you’re a regressor….

“But Seol had no problems.”

“Yes, I was fine.”

“…First, tell me about what happened in the dungeon.”

While talking about the way we fought each other like that – Han Seo-yeon was surprised when we talked about using magical powers – I thought about what the difference between Seol-i and us was.

Once Seol-i said that he fought by dominating zombies.

The existence of zombies did not seem to affect the curse.

Not a single zombie got hit by my reflection right away.

Then….

“Is it because our numbers are high?”

“I think so…Maybe I could use a curse randomly.”

“Probability?”

“It fires an instant death curse with a probability proportional to the number.”

“Huh.”

If this hypothesis is true, am I cursed with instant death both times?

Thinking that far, I was stunned by the malignant structure of the dungeon.

To clear this in three days?

A dungeon where you die instantly if you’re not lucky?

If the probability increases as the number increases, then in the next room, you will be cursed with an even higher probability of instant death, right?

It gave me goosebumps at the will to never clear it.

… However, just as mankind has always been looking for an answer.

There was a way this time too.

There is a way to definitively clear that as well.
