chapter 31
“Are you okay?”
After the golden cow collapsed, Dayoung Kim approached and asked.
I nodded.
That’s right, it was like sending him off in one hit, so there was no way he was injured.
“How did you…?”
Then, this time, Monica asked.
But this place was too uneasy to explain anything.
“Let’s talk as we go.”
I pointed to the ceiling that looked like it was on the verge of collapsing and said.
Monica and Dayoung Kim nodded, and I took the woman shooting the gun behind me to the other side of the stairs.
“Are you done?”
“no. There’s probably someone stronger.”
At my words, not only Lee Hyun-seok, but also the other people’s faces became serious.
But what can I do, this is true.
“So that’s what I mean. You must go down.”
“Are you going down?”
“I have to go to the lobby on the first floor.”
“But… will it be all right?”
The woman who was shooting said.
She must have been quite surprised, her hands still shaking.
What if there were the same guy on the 1st floor, he must be thinking that way.
“It is spacious there. Did you see the size of that cow? If there is another, we must fight together. If you stay here, you will be defeated individually.”
All we had were numbers, so we preferred a wider space.
If the place is wide, this person will be able to launch a pincer attack.
And I didn’t forget to throw in some flimsy hope.
“Do you know? Is there a way out on the first floor?”
Only then did people begin to accept it.
I glanced at Lee Hyun-seok.
“Then follow me.”
Lee Hyun-seok raised his voice and led the people down.
Is it because he is a former firefighter?
Like leading people to an evacuation route from a burning building, I think I’m really good at this.
Me, Monica, and Dayoung Kim followed.
In the meantime, I asked Monica.
“So what was that golden cow?”
“That’s a golden calf. therefore···”
Monica’s explanation continued for a moment.
It seems that Israel did something and someone did something.
Putting aside his side legs, he is a symbol of a false god and is said to be weak only to the divine.
“How did you do it? Divinity is the power of the Church…”
“well. Maybe it’s because I’ve been to church at the military training camp.”
answered roughly.
By the way, I still can’t forget the taste of the hamburger I ate then.
“what?”
“No, I was a warrior. If you’re a warrior, it’s natural that you’re holy. Look at this knife.”
I held out my flashing knife in front of her.
Originally, the design of the star cloud sword was excellent, and it even glowed, so it looked like a real holy sword.
“·······”
Monica’s face was incomprehensible.
However, after shaking his head, he continued to ask again.
“Then… what the f*ck do you mean?”
“What… what?”
“You have always been like that. But I don’t know what that means. The dictionary I have, I don’t have that.”
It was a very trivial question.
Are you asking that in this situation?
But there was nothing I couldn’t answer.
The meaning of the word was infinite.
Because some foreign languages were used similarly.
“f*ck is the word. Puck.”
“puck?”
Monica didn’t understand.
So I paid more attention to pronunciation.
“f*ck. f*ck is f*ck. okay?”
“Ah, OK.”
As if she finally understood, Monica nodded her head broadly.
Was that what you were curious about?
Suddenly, the quest window flashed.
I just opened the window
“uh···?”
I sensed something was wrong.
The original quest disappeared, and a new one was created.
However, neither the difficulty nor the contents were unusual.
<Hidden Quest>
– Difficulty: S
– Survive for tonight.
* congratulations! Existing quests have been changed by completing hidden conditions!
Condition 1: Complete 2 quest objectives in 3 days.
Condition 2: Eliminating the Golden Calf.
What is Hidden Quest?
The quest has been changed by completing the conditions.
The difficulty level is S rank.
Nevertheless, the content was not about winning or defeating the opponent, but about surviving.
Ominousness prevailed.
How the hell is that strong guy
By the way, congratulations?
Who’s kidding, this.
Before long, we barely reached the first floor.
The first floor of the dormitory was where facilities such as the lobby, cafe, bank, and convenience store were located.
“Chu, where is the exit?”
People looked for the exit as soon as they set foot on the first floor.
But there was no exit anywhere.
Instead, we found
“Are you here now?”
It was a man who was sitting at a table in a cafe and drinking coffee.
Dressed in a black suit, he slowly turned around.
“Who are you-“
“wait.”
Monica stopped Lee Hyeon-seok, who was about to approach him.
“That’s the culprit.”
Monica’s words changed people’s gaze.
Monica put the spear in front of her wordlessly and glared sharply at the man in the suit.
The man looked at Monica and smiled.
“Ah, are you the new snake that Levi was raising?”
The low-pitched voice addressed Monica.
At those words, Monica spread a deep sense of caution, but the man lightly turned his head.
“But unfortunately, I’m not here to see you today.”
Then, those eyes immediately looked at me.
He looked at me and smiled lowly.
“It was you. The one that broke my symbol.”
“·······”
“It was pretty amazing. Poor exorcists. Even so, the trainee found my symbol. Besides, judging from the fact that he defeated the golden calf, he seems to be quite capable.”
I looked over his head in silence.
And I barely held back the swearing that was about to come out.
I could see why surviving was the goal.
The male level is 83.
Even the instructors stayed around level 30 or 40, and it was a level I had never seen before at this training center.
Besides, the man’s level indicator was red.
This was to detect humans hostile to me with the effect of [Human Hunter], an attribute I had acquired.
In other words, that man is an obvious enemy.
So… I quickly shook my head.
“No.”
“···what?”
“I don’t know what the symbol is, but I didn’t do it.”
The man’s brow furrowed subtly.
It was the expression on the face of what he was talking about.
“Aren’t you Jinwoo Kang?”
“I am Lee Tae-hoon.”
Who is Taehoon Lee?
I do not know either.
Because I just spit it out randomly.
However, the man put on a puzzled expression at my shameless attitude.
“Strange. For sure···”
Then, even in front of me, he picked up his phone and checked something.
Seeing that he was alternating with my face, he seemed to have a picture.
that’s difficult
“…something that’s not the same.”
Then again.
The man who realized my lie wrinkled his expression.
I clicked my tongue.
“Tsk, this doesn’t work.”
Surprisingly, it was a method that sometimes worked in this world.
Heck, in the fantasy world, he looked for me without even a clumsy portrait.
Here, if you want, you can get your photo and even your resident registration number.
In other words, it was the result of overly ignoring the opponent’s intelligence… no, modern science and technology.
“False evidence is the stigma of sin. You must be punished.”
“punishment? What kind of bullsh*t is the bastard who came in to kill me in the first place? Are you a false prophet?”
That’s what I asked, but I was almost certain.
He said with his mouth that I broke the symbol.
In addition, the techniques used are all based on the traditions in the Bible.
So, that man must be the devil the police are chasing.
“Yes. Sinners call me that. A devil and a false prophet.”
The man, the false prophet, nodded placidly.
He continued speaking while looking directly at me.
“However, that is just a prestige that sinners arbitrarily attached. So let me introduce myself. My name is Luke, one of the 10 elders of the tribe of Isachar.”
What is the tribe, and what is the elder?
I must have heard his introduction, but all I understood was the man’s name, his baptismal name, Luga, to be exact.
“Dangerous.”
Then Monica, standing next to me, whispered.
“Elder, you are very strong.”
The position of elder in the church must be quite high, Monica said.
The man named Ruga was dangerous, he already knew from Level.
But… unfortunately, a fight was unavoidable.
That guy completely sealed off this dormitory from the beginning and entered it.
I don’t know why, but it meant that I came here from the beginning to see the end here.
“I was wondering who the guy who broke my symbol was… but there are a lot of customers.”
Luke put his hand on the coffee cup again and said.
At the same time, something black swirled around him like a wave.
It was… a black thorn tree.
Then, they came together and formed a human shape in an instant.
“doll···?”
It was a human-sized doll made of black wood.
Its size and shape are like the shadow of a person holding a sword.
However, upon closer inspection, what was in his hand was not a sword, but a cross.
Holding the cross upside down, an inverted cross.
Also, a level that could not be ignored appeared above its head.
37 levels.
It was much better than that level 80 guy, but it was still difficult to deal with.
“I will give you a test. At the end, I hope to reach salvation.”
After summoning the doll, Ruga sat down at the table and calmly drank coffee.
Doesn’t that mean it’s not something you’re going to do?
An arrogant attitude.
But it wasn’t groundless arrogance.
If it’s a level 37 enemy, it’s not easy to defeat it even if all the trainees here come forward.
However, it was literally next to impossible to overcome such an enemy and do something with that level 83 guy.
“but···”
I remembered the contents of the quest.
The difficulty was obviously high, but considering the nature of the system called quests, I wouldn’t have taken on an impossible task as a quest.
In other words, there is definitely a way out somewhere.
And no matter how much I thought about it, there was only one.
I glanced at Monica next to me.
If Monica cooperates.
And if Luke’s arrogance continues.
Maybe it was just one chance.
“come!”
someone shouted
And just as he said, the black doll rushed straight towards me.
There was some distance, but the speed was difficult to react.
kang!
The doll’s inverted cross collided with my star cloud sword.
It was fast.
An absurdly intense shock is transmitted to the hand.
I almost missed the sword, but I had to come to my senses.
The next attack was already flying in.
“crazy!”
My vision followed the pace well enough, but the physical side was a bit heavy.
visor!
2 strikes narrowly knocked out.
However, at this rate, the third attack will occur.
So I gave up my defense and fell back.
His slash cut through the air in front of me.
If the doll followed me like this, I had no chance of winning.
Fortunately, I was not alone here.
A golden spear penetrated between me and the doll.
“Kuk!”
The doll knocked Monica’s spear out from the side.
The shock alone made Monica moan.
“aaa!”
Dayoung Kim screamed and threw a sword at the doll.
Lee Hyeon-seok’s knuckles, wrapped in flames, assisted her.
And Monica, who immediately adjusted her posture, also clung to the doll.
The dolls surrounded by the front, back and sides now attacked in all directions.
Chaechaechaeng!
Sparks flew fiercely between steel and steel.
3 to 1, and even in the workshop that continued in seconds, the doll did not back down at all.
“·······”
Meanwhile, others panicked and raised their weapons, but I waved them off.
Well, they don’t even have the strength to deal with an attack like that, so it’s better to stay out.
After that, I fixed the star cloud sword and joined the attack on the doll.
4 to 1.
Only then did the level 37 doll begin to slowly move away.
but.
“hmm.”
A short silence came from Luke’s side.
Then, the level value on top of the doll’s head changed.
52 levels.
I was stunned by the rapidly rising level.
At the same time, the movement of the doll changed.
Slashes like a fleeting flash came pouring down.
