Solo Max-Level Newbie

. End of Level 3, Heartless Army (1)

Oh, no... no. Please, please...!

Jinhyuk left behind screaming Alex and went back to the inside of the amphitheater.

Because there was no reason to watch until the end.

Whoops!

Cuckoo!

Debris fell irregularly in the aftermath of the mana furnace.

It wasn't threatening, but I didn't want to be covered in dust.

[Lv2 'Ice Formation' is activated.]

Pants!

A film of ice spread around Jinhyuk's body.

An ice shield with a snowflake pattern deflected the falling rocks.

Jinhyuk's eyes turned to the people lying on the floor.

Consciousness has not returned yet.

This is because he suffered a lot of physical and mental damage.

'Thanks to you, I can raise my additional income very well.'

In a situation close to disaster, there would have been no time to collect the auction items that had been sold.

Treasures from Episode 175 lying beneath the rock fragments. This is the one who picks it up first.

Jinhyuk walked between them and started farming slowly.

'Since you saved my life, of course I should be paid this much.'

On the contrary, it is as if they were made too cheap. Because he paid only a few hundred million for his life.

Of course, there may be people who ask you to put out a bag after you rescued it from drowning.

Does not matter.

'When I wake up, I'll be on the plane going to Korea.'

Most of all, I'm stunned, how do you know who the culprit is?

At best, it would be the best thing that could be done to blame the demons who made this disaster.

lululala.

Jinhyuk hummed and dug through the wreckage.

Quite a few treasures were damaged, but fortunately, the best ones survived.

'I feel like I'm completely inside a treasure dungeon.'

'Heart of an ichthyosaur' and 'Unknown Iron Ore' were the most popular items at this auction.

'The vault made by Michelangelo'

I also got my hands on it.

The crown that Elise had exhibited was also recovered.

great.

This is enough.

Jinhyuk pulled out an old piece of paper he had put in his pocket.

It was a 'subspace inventory combination book' obtained from the corridor.

Materials that exist other than replicas and towers will not come up to platinum or diamond grades, where more than a few dozen tons are stored.

'It can prevent the inconvenience of having to carry it around the body right now.'

That's enough.

['Heart of an ichthyosaur (A)', 'Unknown iron ore (B)', and 'The safe made by Michelangelo (C)' were used as materials!]

[You have successfully combined large-capacity subspace inventory (gold grade +5000kg)!]

A yellow subspace inventory appeared with a dazzling light.

Finally, I was able to stuff the cumbersome stuff.

But right then.

crumble.

I felt popular among people.

...!?

Jinhyuk quickly turned his head.

'Is there anyone out there already?'

The moment I thought so.

I met the rabbit eyes that were floating in a pile of rubble.

was a little boy

He had eyes full of fear and excitement, but somehow, in some way, admiration and emotion.

' Was it a kid?'

Jinhyuk cleared his vigilance.

I'll take it out, so hold on for a second. Don't move.

Yes Yes.

The boy nodded his head.

That moment.

Scratch!

The blue-colored dagger cut through the pile of rubble at once.

Since the angle at which the fragments were cut was calculated, the boy was safely rescued without any injuries.

Oh, thank you. Brother.

What, have this much.

Jinhyuk smirked as if it was nothing special.

Your brother killed those monsters and the bad guys, right?

Huh?

I saw it before I lost my mind. It's like, in a Marvel movie. Really... it's really cool.

It's a Marvel movie.

Did you think of it as the Avengers fighting Thanos?

Well, in the eyes of the kids, it might look that way. It must have looked like a scene from a movie to wipe out dozens of undead.

"I also want to become a strong player like hyung someday and climb the tower. So, when bad guys kill people, they appear like a hero and save people I want to be like that."

uhm. Hearing it so openly, it's a little strange for me.

Because it is pure, there is no filtering in the expression of emotions.

It doesn't feel bad though.

Because there was no misunderstanding or pretense in expressing my sincere gratitude.

'Sometimes this is not bad.'

Jinhyuk smiled and patted the boy's head.

I had to stop now, just in case someone else wakes up.

One thing before that.

Well, later when people ask who did it, can you keep it a secret?

Jinhyuk gently spread his pinky finger.

I'll never tell you. Heroes can't be revealed!

The boy smiled, too, and his pinky fingers crossed.



On the 3rd floor of the Tower of Trials, there are two places that players have not yet reached the end of.

One was the boss room on the 3rd floor guarding the way to the 4th floor.

Another one right here.

Called the 'Cathedral of Hatred', it is a labyrinth that has destroyed countless raids.

However.

Contrary to its notoriety, in fact, this labyrinth was attacked long ago.

Just by the magicians.

Damn, why are you so strict about setting up security here? We're going to get hit with this.

A slender woman grunted at the discovery.

There was a lot of anger in the conversation.

yea that's the way it is

Barriers and traps installed in layers to prevent players from approaching.

There were a lot of high-ranking undead monsters that made it impossible to let go of tension, even for demons familiar with the geography here.

Stop complaining, Melena. I'm already feeling bad about that stupid doctor.

The Asian man who was walking next to Melena clicked his tongue.

It's not that big, but the cold energy that it exudes from its body is no less than a large monster.

Liqiao. Do I have to pay attention to whether it's comfortable or uncomfortable for you to plant?

It would be nice if you didn't want to die.

Funny, that word. It looks like you're stronger than me, doesn't it?

Melena also received Li Qiao's gaze head-on.

It wouldn't be strange to take out a weapon right away.

Both of you, just go there.

A low, heavy voice interrupted.

A man in a black hood

Unlike Melina and Li Qiao, a red inverted cross was embroidered on her right shoulder. And the Roman numeral VII was overlaid on it.

All right.

Sheesh!

At the command they dared not disobey, the two reluctantly nodded their heads.

Melena and Lichao had been working together outside the tower for 10 years, but they were always anxious to eat each other.

Seriously, it might be contradictory to say that the demons get along well with each other.

Apocalyptic cults indulged in pseudo-religion, pleasure killers who became mercenaries to kill, monsters who can throw away their humanity for money.

Because it was a group formed by people who did not like to be bound by law and order.

By the way, no matter how poor Alex's skills are, I don't understand why he lost even when he had so much wealth.

Li Qiao opened his mouth.

"Well, Jinhyuk Kang is probably one of the dead. If that's the case, he'd be on a similar level to the rankers out there."

Don't be vigilant. Maybe he's gone to a higher place than us.

At the words of the man in the hood, a gust of wind escaped from their mouths.

Hey, no way. Even the executives who went up to the 20th floor of the tower were treated like crazy. Did you go higher than that?

I also think it's a bit of an exaggerated assumption. It's us, the virtual reality world as part of avoiding the eyes of Interpol and the CIA.

[ Since I chose the Tower of Trials, I know a lot more about the Tower than others... ]

That's right. Don't the other guys have a special reason for that? Because there's no way they're going to hide in virtual reality to avoid the puppies' eyes.

[11 years since the Tower of Trials was released.]

However, most people quit the game in less than three years.

It's a natural thing.

Even people who enjoyed the extreme difficulty couldn't waste their time on something beyond the limit.

You have to have a taste that grows and gets better, even a little, so you can endure boredom.

There could be a fool who would throw his life away in the boredom that repeats without a purpose.

But why?

A strange tension lingered on the man's face.

The intuition and instinct that made him rise to the position of an executive of the Mine Association.

And beyond that, fear continued to send warnings.

You should never underestimate Kang Jin-hyuk.

don't be careless

That's what even the stupidest bastards do.

if so .

You two go with Cadrick.

Even if there is only one possibility, you have to trample on it.



The last gate on the 3rd floor of the Tower of Trials.

Jinhyuk stood in front of the only road to the 4th floor.

Uh-huh...

I took a long breath.

'All preparations are complete.'

I put all of the items that Lee Yu-ri asked for in the subspace inventory, and made the physical condition and mana in the best state.

All that is left is to open your own broadcasting channel before the boss battle.

'If you think about the future, you should collect as many coins as possible.'

This bottom will soon become a serious red ocean due to the condition that only the first video viewed in 24 hours will be counted.

The good guys can sweep the coins, but it means that it will be difficult for non-named players to get 10 views even for a hundred days.

So, you have to get a seat before that.

And you have to kick the ladder.

to prevent competitors from coming up.

'Let's have a little trouble today.'

It was only in this boss raid that the broadcast was turned on to attract people's aggro, but Jinhyuk was planning not to broadcast live as much as possible in the future.

Exporting as-is without editing was dangerous in many ways.

'If you can imprint everyone smartly on the first broadcast, it's enough to replace it with uploading a video afterwards.'

It also meant that if you wipe the first one well, the next one will be easier.

But at that time. Jinhyuk was thinking about the name of the channel and suddenly a painful and bitter memory came to mind.

'Colonel Timo can't.'

That's never going to happen.

I just wanted to get out of that nightmare.

Jinhyuk bit his fingers.

He prided himself on knowing more about the Tower of Trials than anyone else, but only one.

No matter how hard I tried, my naming sense didn't improve.

How many minutes have passed?

A name flashed through Jinhyuk's mind like lightning.

...Unknown.

Words spit out like a mumble.

OK.

[Channel name 'Unknown'?]

A status window appears asking for confirmation.

Yeah. I'll do that.

When you cleared the Labyrinth of Rivarinto, the system recommended a code name of Unknown to protect your identity.

A word meaning 'unknown'.

At the time, I thought it was because I liked it, but now that I think about it, I think I really like the name.

'Actually, the main concept is to hide your identity behind a mask.'

[Your personal channel has been created!]

[Channel name 'Unknown'!]

[The broadcast function is activated.]

[Real-time streaming is only available when fighting boss monsters on each floor.]

pounding! pounding! pounding!

Jinhyuk's heart started beating fast.

"What is it that makes you nervous?"

In the past, the very concept of live streaming was vague.

so much

[This was due to the small number of people playing the Tower of Trials.]

Virtually the first live broadcast in my life.

I would be lying if I said I didn't tremble.

  Boss Battle of the Tower of Trials 3F: Today's broadcast shows how the dead person who was first used to attack.

If the title is hung like this, I think it will attract enough aggro.

'Well then, let's go slowly now.'

One last time, Jinhyeok checked to see if the mask engraved with geometric patterns was properly worn.

jerk.

And he moved towards the other side of the swaying gate.
