Solo Max-Level Newbie

. How the dead build up (2)

Kim Ki-tae was given five days before recruiting players to go to the labyrinth.

During that time, Jinhyuk visited various concerts and Michelin stars prepared by Heewoong Kim.

And the current location is the Chopin International Piano Competition.

It is a piano competition held once every five years and is one of the three major music competitions in the world where people compete only with Chopin's songs.

Jinhyuk, who took advantage of the S-class position and took a position without difficulty, fell in love with the performance of a male pianist in his early 20s.

How long has it been?

The accompaniment that had reached its climax subsided, and the pianist's hand finally fell off the piano.

the play is over

'I don't know much about music... . This is really creepy.'

A completely different realm from combat.

It can be said that the beautiful and splendid melody is another world sublimated into art.

Jinhyuk, who was trembling, wiped his chest.

Uh-huh...

It was awesome.

It's like watching a movie, right?

It was as if his whole body was still immersed in the afterglow.

'It took a lot of time, but the purpose was achieved nonetheless.'

I have been to all possible competitions and concerts with this.

At the same time.

[You have enjoyed the famous songs of an era.]

[You have completed 'Go to Concert No. 7'.]

[['Beethoven Museum']

Tour completed.]

Several status windows appeared in front of me.

'great.'

The corners of Jinhyuk's lips went up.

[The condition has been met.]

[Successful to copy skill 'Absolute Pitch (F)'!]

[Successfully copied skill 'Instrument Understanding (F)'!]

All acquired skills are F grades.

However, Jinhyuk was not satisfied with just this.

Combine low-level skills,

Something that can create a higher level of skill.

Because that was the reason I chose the unique ability of 'fusion'.

I will fuse the stellar Blessing with the understanding of instruments.

Jinhyuk immediately 'converges'

skill was used.

[The skill 'Blessing of the stars' and 'understanding the instrument' are fused.]

[Successful in fusion.]

[You have acquired the skill 'Heavenly Melody']

[Heavenly melody]

Acquisition Difficulty: B

Description: 'Bestia', the goddess of music, valued harmony and peace for all, transcending races. He also believed that no matter how harsh the world is, music can act as a medium that can skin walls. The wind of the goddess resides in this ability.

[The copied skill is saved in 'Memory of the World'.]

I didn't come here because of time left.

To gather non-combat-type abilities.

To gain the additional power needed to climb the tower forward.

You are investing your time like gold.

'Next is the turn of cooking.'

Two tasks to do before going to the elven forest.

Now all that's left is to learn to cook.

Jinhyeok looked through the list of three Michelin-starred restaurants that had been booked in turn.

[The following conditions must be met to copy the skill 'Imperial Master's Master'.]

[One. Eat a course meal at a Michelin 3-star or higher restaurant (7/10 times)]

[2. Watching the chef cook the dish (3/5 episodes)]

[3. Try making different kinds of dishes (25/30 times)]

I ate it in my spare time while watching the contest, so it wasn't long before I met the conditions.

'I can finish everything within today and go back to Korea.'

In other words.

It means the time has come to go to the 6th floor.



Citic Tower in Beijing, China.

Several men and women were gathered in the penthouse on the top floor of a building that was so high that the expression "skyscraper" was appropriate.

It was the rankers belonging to the China Guild, the largest guild in China.

Damn it! To lose the first attack again this time. What kind of dog is this! Surely, we were not confident that we could clear the 5th floor first!

A man with a large body and a thick beard shouted.

Yes.

The preparation was perfect.

Have you ever cleared the 5th floor? No, because I have prepared a lot of dead figures and rankers who have run through the 5th floor with a time attack.

There is 'orange' within the guild itself

Since the relics that had been judged were prepared, it was quite natural to guarantee the first attack.

But.

The Chinese Guild failed to attack the 5th floor for the first time.

Even after investing so much resources and effort.

Even more than half of them were still struggling to escape from the mines or the gladiatorial arena.

It's not that we didn't have enough preparation. It's just that a guy named Kang Jin-hyuk caught the boss at an abnormal speed.

Jinhyuk Kang.

The name put anger on everyone's faces.

The guys below are all about that guy. I heard by chance that there's a guy talking bullshit that the only hope for mankind is that guy. Of course, he slit his throat right away.

It won't happen, but I think it's time to think about leaving the cast.

How the hell did that guy rot in the Tower of Trials so he climbed the tower so quickly? I heard he did it alone without any outside support...

It must have been a guy who has been doing it for quite some time. Maybe he's climbed the tower to the 20th floor or more.

20th floor.

An unknown realm that no one here has ever been to has popped up.

no way .

Are there any crazy people who play that crazy game over 20 floors?

It's nonsense! Even China, which has over 500 million users, has all been shut down, but if you gather up the population, how can such a person come out of a country with 50 million!

Everyone raised their voices in denial.

The center of the world was China. It was because they believed that only China could see the top of the pagoda.

So, didn't he call himself 'Chunghwa' and be proud of himself?

But no matter how hard you try to hide it.

I started to realize that I was speaking.

That there is a deceased person in this tower that they do not know well.

And that the dead person alone is more dangerous than moving the entire guild.

But it was then that an awkward silence followed.

Rumble!

The door opened on both sides and a man appeared.

He was an impressive man with a beautiful impression and clothes made of luxurious silk.

All eyes turned to the man.

I, Namgungcheon-sama!

Have you finished talking with Moorim?

The Master of the Chinese Guild. China's strongest player.

Namgungcheon.

That's what this man was referring to.

"Yeah it's over for now."

Namgungcheon ran across the room with a dissatisfied expression on his face.

one step. one step.

Even though he was just walking, the inside was filled with a thick chill as if in a freezer.

gulp.

There was the sound of dry saliva swallowing all over the place.

Naturally, no one dared to ask the reason why Namgungcheon's planting was uncomfortable, with the liver sticking out of the stomach.

Namgungcheon, who sat in the empty chair, opened his mouth again.

I got a report about the 5th floor. Who's in charge?

It's me... But, Namgungcheon-sama! This day must be...

The man with a thick beard made an excuse urgently.

Of course, the lame excuses did not come to an end.

...gagging?

Scratch!

Blood gushed like a fountain from the neatly divided upper body.

He who can't do one thing right doesn't deserve to go up with me.

Namgungcheon's sword was crossed horizontally as if he had pulled it out.

It is a speed that is difficult to even perceive, let alone discern with the naked eye.

Namgungcheon's gaze, who had brushed off the blood on his sword, turned to the rankers.

I have to go to the 5th floor of the tower to do what Moorim asked me to do. The main raid also has work to do with me.

Namgungcheon called the main raid.

The commanders who met their eyes bowed their heads.

How about the sixth floor?

The elves will allow three S-class men and one raid. The selected ones go to the 6th floor, take the elves as prisoners, and burn the forest. The deadline is ten days.

The command that has been dropped is the erasure of one floor (消去).

There is no objection.

No questions either.

Because fulfilling orders was the only way for them to survive.

All right.

I will never disappoint you this time.



After finishing all his chores in Europe, Jinhyuk headed straight to the Tower of Trials.

There was still one day left until the appointment with Kim Ki-tae, so in the meantime, I was thinking of opening up with the elves.

'It's not easy to meet him because it's hidden so deep in the forest.'

The elf race was originally like that.

They are a race that loves nature more than anyone with a beautiful appearance, but strangely, should it be said that they have a beta personality toward other races?

in short. It means that not only is it difficult to meet, but it is even more difficult to have a conversation.

But that's the case with normal players.

'I am different.'

Where do the elves live?

Where do your favorite fruit trees usually live?

He even knew what he had to do to get their likes.

Jinhyuk, who had a strange smile, suddenly trembled.

Because all of a sudden, old memories came to mind.

'Come to think of it, I was trying to get to know them at first, but nothing special happened... .'

The memory of being chased by the entire tribe after passing chicken, saying that it was precious to the elves who only eat vegetarian food, was a kind I can't easily forget.

If you die, you can't reconnect for 48 hours, so I played tag in the woods for 17 hours with firewood.

'Well, that was my fault.'

Meat for an elf.

I wouldn't have been so angry if I had given him some savory sunflower seeds.

But it wasn't the worst.

The most terrible memory was on October 17th at 11:43:15 PM. It goes back to that very day.

'Even if I die, I will never forget it.'

Do you even remember the date and time?

Jinhyuk bit his lower lip.

After several attempts. Jinhyuk managed to get a chance to get to know the elves and was invited to their village.

But, after all, that day was an annual festival of elves.

An empty lot with a beautiful night sky and lights made of fireflies.

Fragrant fruits and drinks that seem to be rare in the world created Mureungdowon itself.

The atmosphere was very good.

'Until you ask me if I can play an instrument.'

As for musical instruments, I had only listened to them a few times in elementary school. Even he was often sleepy.

In the end, as a last resort, I bought the only thing I could handle on the 'coin exchange'.

That's the recorder.

Jinhyuk played the immortal song 'My heart will go on' while ignoring all the pitch beats.

He even applied voice amplification magic in case there were elves who couldn't hear him.

That is .

It was a fatal mistake.

Aww!

Stop, stop! Please stop!

This is the devil! The devil has come down here!

Forest the forest is furious! The trees are dying!

All the spirits are leaving.

It seemed as if the screams of the elves could still be heard vividly in my ears.

'Besides, the price I paid for playing with all my might was disastrous.'

It was thought that he possessed Leonardo DiCaprio and reproduced the grandeur and desperateness of the Titanic.

However, the reality was a gutter.

permanent deportation.

The charge is that he inflicted irreparable damage to the souls of the elves and the spirits in the forest.

'this time different.'

Because I have prepared everything to make up for that disgrace.

huuuuuuoooooooooooooooooooo

His vision in front of him was dyed black, and Jinhyuk entered the 6th floor of the Tower of Trials.
