Solo Max-Level Newbie

. Node Defense (1)

The world was turned upside down due to the sudden declaration of attack on the fourth floor.

Hey, what the hell is this!?

You're going to start right now? Are you serious?

Crazy! Call up all the rankers right now! It's an emergency. Stop the shit you're doing and come out!

Did you pick up a list of candidates for the base? Bring it! All the data on the 4th floor you've been collecting!

The executives of the large guild shouted like crazy.

It is common sense that, given the wave-type trait, it is necessary to preempt a location with a good location among numerous bases.

Every minute and every second was precious to save this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

I had to lead the raid to the 4th floor in 8 hours right now.

In addition, I had to plan all the ways to attack the 4th floor within the remaining time.

So, while everyone is rushing around until the morning dawns.

Ugh!

Jinhyuk woke up from the soft bed, stretching.

Uduk!

Ududuk!

The joint has found its place.

It feels surprisingly refreshing.

It's like being reborn.

'It seems that the accumulated fatigue has been relieved at once.'

In order to start a new fight, that much stamina must be supported.

sure.

The rest probably won't.

'It must be the worst condition.'

Because he deliberately declared the attack at a late hour, he must have been exhausted physically and mentally from rolling his head that did not roll all night.

But what do you do?

This is not a sport that is played in the stadium.

There was no reason to be fair play with a competitor.

This is because the 4th floor had a structure in which the less the number of competitors, the greater the reward.

[Time remaining before the first wave arrives: 1h:37m:51s]

Now it's time to go to the 4th floor.



The 4th floor of the Tower of Trials.

This is the first turning point that made many players quit the game in the past.

yea that's the way it is

There are 100 waves of normal zombies and special zombies, and thousands of combinations of defense towers must be properly placed, as well as a means to provide food, clothing, and shelter within the base.

Above all, because of the ridiculous penalty that the entire game is reset if no player clears wave 100, the inside of the game at that time created hell itself with users' breakouts and profanity.

in vain

[I have not heard that the Tower of Trials is Mangem.]

And right now.

huuuuuuoooooooooooooooooooo

A player appeared at the entrance on the 4th floor with a bright light.

'Every time I see you here, you look like a bitch.'

Jinhyuk looked around.

In keeping with the theme of zombies, the entire 4th floor created an apocalyptic atmosphere.

Burnt out buildings and abandoned cars. A city where civilization has completely disappeared.

I can't help but feel sad.

Maybe because I didn't even know that the sight I'm seeing now is a mirror that reflects the future of mankind.

That was then.

T-tiring!

A status window appeared in front of you.

[You entered the 4th floor of the Tower of Trials for the first time.]

[Other players can also enter the 4th floor from the next 20 minutes.]

A 20-minute bonus for clearing the 3rd floor for the first time.

This will be the time to decide the success or failure of this layer.

'I must hurry.'

Jinhyuk started running toward the north.

However, the speed was not good because the road was so rough.

A road that disappeared due to a sinkhole.

A wall blocked by vines.

Because the obstacles are full.

'hurry faster!'

Jinhyeok cleared his breathing and increased his speed even more.

Now there are less than 10 minutes left.

KwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwa!

How long did it run while cutting down obstacles with the 'Sword Graveyard' and repairing the hollow floor with 'Glacier Sculpting'?

Finally, Jinhyuk's footsteps stopped.

We arrived at the huge World Cup Stadium.

'It's barely too late.'

We had to secure the base we wanted before other players entered, so we had to move quickly, even if it was difficult.

This is because some players have the ability to accelerate or move in space.

'Where are you here? .'

found.

Jinhyuk placed his palm on one of the pillars at the entrance to the stadium.

Then at that very moment.

[I use 'Priority Point Designation Ticket'!]

['Sangam World Cup Stadium' has been selected as your base!]

A red flag was raised over the World Cup Stadium.

This is a warning.

'The owner of this place is fixed, so look for another place'.

'great.'

Jinhyuk nodded his head satisfactorily and entered the stadium.

The green lawn where 22 players once sweated to win the game is gone.

Instead, the place was filled with dry soil and dust.

exactly.

'On the condition I want.'

dirt and dust.

It is a symbol of the end of life,

At the same time, it is also a symbol suggesting the birth of new life.

[['Soft grains']

1 kg is scattered.]

[['Seed of Solar']

Plant 5.]

[Prepare 'Natural Water 50L'.]

Jinhyuk took out the reward he had obtained after dealing with no marriage.

The grains and seeds that go into the soil.

Among the countless defenses available on the 4th floor, Jinhyuk chose 'plants'.

'Plant one plant at each entrance to the stadium, and the last one in the center.'

[Time remaining until 'Solar's Seed' hatches: 55m:33s]

[Time remaining until 'soft grains' hatch: 5h:19m:10s]

By the time the first zombie wave arrives, these plants will do their job as great breakwaters to defend your stronghold.

The grains that will be useful as food will soon sprout.

That was then.

T-tiring! T-tiring!

A blue status window appeared one after another in front of me.

[Oppa, I called because I told you to call me when you come to the 4th floor. Taemin is also with me.]

[Jinhyuk, we have arrived. The entrance on the 4th floor, right?]

Yoo Yeon-hwa and Lee Tae-min, who were deceased colleagues, and Teresa, a saint in Amsterdam, have also been in touch.

Stay growing fast. I'll be back soon.

Jinhyeok sprinkled plenty of 'natural water' over the seeds that were just settling in.

[Growth speed of plants is increased by 20%!]



About 10 minutes later, Jinhyuk arrived at the place he had come from.

The 4th floor starting point was crowded with many players.

'Almost all of the famous large guilds participated.'

Although time was tight, a huge number gathered.

It seems that the rewards are quite coveted.

but.

The chance to pick an A-grade random box doesn't come very often.

No matter how early in the Tower of Trials, even those who closed it would have investigated the fact that Grade A is in the top 5%.

And the next step will be different depending on the item that comes out of it.

It was when Jinhyuk was looking at the players.

brother!

brother!

Yoo Yeon-hwa and Lee Tae-min, who found Jin-hyuk, waved their hands.

Mr. Jinhyuk!

Theresa, the platinum blonde girl next to him, also smiled brightly.

Yoo Yeon-hwa, we met yesterday, but the other two haven't seen in a long time.

I'm sorry for calling everyone suddenly. I didn't have time to explain because things went faster than I thought.

"No. My brother called me, so of course you have to come."

I don't care where I belong anymore. It's even better to be with Jinhyuk.

Well .

I'm a little sorry for saying that.

From now on, all three of them were planning to make good workers (?).

A vicious shopkeeper who violates the Employment and Labor Act and a part-time student who lives faithfully.

This was the ideal position Jinhyuk pursued.

Look at that. It's Yoo Yeon-hwa and Lee Tae-min. You attacked the B-class labyrinth on the second floor alone, didn't you?

"There is also Theresa . You said you left the meeting, but was it because you wanted to eat with that person?"

You're with Kang Jin-hyuk, aren't you? This time, a super-special Shinsung from Korea.

Was that person Jinhyuk Kang? When he re-awakened, the mana level pierced the meter?

Yeah. They said that it came out much higher than the same S-class. It was because of that person that it was necessary to subdivide the grade.

"It seems like there are a lot of big newcomers coming out recently as well as a player called Unknown."

"At least Sue is a terrifying member. It must be stronger than most raids, right?"

Since there are so many hotly contested characters, attention is focused around them.

Of course, Jinhyuk wasn't the type to care about such a gaze.

Have you all been well prepared?

Preparation, we worked hard, but more than that, oppa. Would it be okay with just us?

Huh?

There's a wave of zombies coming in here that really makes me vomit.

Yoo Yeon-hwa trembled thinly.

It reminded me of the terrible memories of the past when there was a smell of blood and meat.

I have the ability to summon summons, but it's still difficult because I'm still at a low level. In particular, I can't stand the wave of transforming zombies...

Taemin Lee also added a word.

It can only be burdensome to face the wave without being prepared, no matter how old you are.

However.

Isn't that more fun?

An innocent smile hung on Jinhyuk's face.

As if I was going to die from the expectation of being able to experience a higher level of difficulty.

Fun is it fun? Oppa. Isn't this a game? If you get bitten by a zombie here, you really die.

Ha. He still hasn't given up on his old habit. Isn't that the level of self-abuse?

"Jinhyuk-san it seems like a pervert."

The three let out a small sigh.

What if I'm already so frustrated?

"Did you deliberately choose the base as the stadium?"

Huh!? The arena? Sangam Stadium. Isn't it there? Please tell me no.

that's right.

Hyung. Are you crazy? That's the toughest place among the bases! It's a large base that has to be blocked by at least 100 people.

Know.

At the same time, it is also the most rewarding place.

Still, we've all been to the 20th floor, so don't say that you're too sick. You need to collect as much as you can in the beginning to get more comfortable as you go up. You know?

It is, but...

Ahhh! I don't know. It's possible with a real brother. It's hard for us.

Not all dead people are the same.

There's rotting water, and there's oil and fossils on it.

Yoo Yeon-hwa and Lee Tae-min got on the same boat with the most terrifying ammonite among them.

While the two are ripping their heads off.

Hey, Mr. Jinhyuk. May I ask you just one thing?

Theresa, who had been silent, raised her hand.

Yes, tell me.

"As far as I know, to carry out this defensive battle, we need to have a minimum number of people, but I think we are lacking in numbers."

Huh? Then I saw...

That's right. I didn't care about that because I was concerned about the stadium.

Yoo Yeon-hwa and Lee Tae-min were also surprised and responded.

The minimum required for this floor is 5 people.

However, there are only four people gathered.

This means that only one other person can proceed with the base defense battle.

The last one is coming soon.

Jinhyuk opened his mouth as if not to worry.

and just in time.

Aww!

There was a roar from a distance.

'Ttttttt.'

Anyway, he's a guy who doesn't appear quietly.
