It was clear that they had returned to the tower from about 920 creatures, but suddenly the quest was completed.

"What is this?"

Sung JiHan looked down below the tower.

More precisely, it was the location where he had used the Thunderous Roar.

"Is it because of that?"

The ultimate magic that transformed the body into lightning and allowed him to leap a great distance in an instant, Thunderous Roar.

Before taking off, it was a martial art characterized by explosive currents jumping out.

However, some of the explosive currents were still lingering in the land he had passed through.

Seeing this, Sung JiHan furrowed his brow.

"It's because the martial art wasn't perfectly executed."

Originally, when he took off, all the currents that spread to the ground had to gather back to him.

But it seemed that because he had not used the Nameless Divine Art as a skill, but rather through the Threefold Thunder, the power that had spread to the ground did not gather perfectly.

"I need time to train."

Thanks to breaking the chain quest, it was just an unexpected stroke of luck from the perspective of an ordinary person.

Sung JiHan realized his own shortcomings and waited for the next chain quest.

[You have obtained 3,000 achievement points as a reward.]

[The chain quest continues to the Origin of Zombies (2).]

Kururur-

The ground shook violently, and the zombies that had been charging endlessly suddenly stopped moving.

Groo...wa...

The voice of the zombies that had been echoing throughout the battlefield also abruptly ceased.

A silent calm descended upon the land beyond the tower.

This situation was not only happening in Sung JiHan's tower, but also in other towers.

Viewers who were watching the broadcast were thrown into confusion.

-????? What is this?

-This is the first time I've seen something like this in a zombie map.

-Is it a bug?

-Is it on Battle.net? If it's real, it's a historic event, right?

At that moment.

Kugugugung!

The ground split open, and a giant hand suddenly emerged.

Each finger was so huge that it reached the height of the tower, and it was a hand made of black steel.

From the center of the palm, a mouth appeared, and it began to emit a mournful sound that would resonate throughout the entire battlefield.

Uuuuuu-!

"...Ugh!"

"What on earth is this..."

The sound was chilling to the point that it sent shivers down the spines of not only the players participating in the game, but also the viewers watching it.

And then.

The swarm of zombies began to be sucked into the giant hand.

Crunch! Crunch!

The hand crushed and kneaded the zombies as if they were dough.

Although the bones and flesh of the fallen zombies made a gruesome sound as they hit the ground.

The fragments of the fallen zombies gathered back together with the black hand, gradually forming a massive figure.

And before long, the black hand created 'something'.

"No... that is..."

BJ GeumBit's voice trembled.

A gigantic monstrosity made up of a mixture of the blood, flesh, and bones of living beings.

"Why is a Flash Golem, a monster that only appears in Gold-tier, here?"

The grotesque appearance created by the mixture of zombie fragments disoriented the viewers, making them lose their sense of reality.

And it wasn't just one.

Crack! Crack!

The black hand created a total of seven Flash Golems.

Kkkkkk-!

After emitting a eerie laughter, the hand disappeared into the ground again.

[The Defense Map, '10 Towers', has been cleared.]

[A bonus mission has been unlocked.]

Bronze-exclusive map, 10 Towers.

Even though there were still seven towers remaining, a message appeared stating that all the towers had cleared the mission.

-Bonus mission?

-Did the Bronze map have something like that?

[Stop the advance of the Flash Golems created by the Apostle of Doom, 'Black Hand'. If you use the blessing of the crystal, you can narrow the gap in power!]

Reward - Gain 3 times the experience points & GP upon mission completion

The reward for the bonus mission was simple.

Originally, it was three times the reward you would receive.

"The crystal gives blessings?"

"If that's the case... is it worth it?"

Since they were already going to clear it anyway, the bonus mission was worth a try without any burden.

As the players prepared themselves for battle.

Sung JiHan received a quest message different from theirs.

[Linked Quest - Origin of the Zombies (2)]

Defeat the Flash Golem without the help of the crystal.

Reward - Achievement Points 10,000 / Crystal Fragment

Defeat the Flash Golem without the help of the crystal?

Sung JiHan chuckled as if he couldn't believe the mission.

Is this mission really meant to be cleared?

"So, there must be a crystal fragment in the reward."

Other than the achievement points in the achievement quest, there were only additional rewards for the survival map-related epic quests.

Sung JiHan looked at the Flash Golems approaching from a distance.

Thump, thump, thump.

The seven Flash Golems created by the black hand's black hands walked quickly towards the seven towers.

With each step, the fragments of what used to be human fell off, which was disgusting to see again.

Meanwhile, BJ GeumBit approached Sung JiHan, marveling at the grandeur of the Flash Golems.

"Wow... Even at a glance, they don't look easy. Sung JiHan, quickly get a buff."

"...."

Sung JiHan remained silent, only watching the Flash Golem, ignoring GeumBit's words.

Seeing that, GeumBit's viewers began to speculate.

-Sung JiHan got scared and is hiding behind his precious one, lol.

-Didn't he say he would reveal his status window if he didn't get first place?

-Is it a tattoo??????

-Logically, how can someone at the Bronze level defeat a boss-level Gold? That's out of the question.

-Already shielding himself, lololololololol.

The viewers' thoughts were correct.

Even if there was a buff from the crystal, could they really subdue that giant monster?

It would be difficult.

"Even if it's Sung JiHan, it might be difficult for him."

Perhaps Sung JiHan didn't know that he was preparing himself to die.

Soon, GeumBit also prepared himself to die, if he had any ambition, it was just to leave a good video as a broadcaster.

While GeumBit was organizing his thoughts like that.

Sung JiHan spoke in a low voice.

"The buff is fine."

"...What?"

In response to GeumBit's words, Sung JiHan briefly answered and raised the power of the Three-Step Battle Formation.

* * *

Flash Golem.

Even players in the Gold League would have a hard time defeating this powerful monster if their level was insufficient.

Also, as a monster that originated from the undead, it had the nature of continuously regenerating unless the core in its body was destroyed.

And because the fragments of corpses embedded in its body were annoying, each individual was evaluated as a boss-level monster.

Sung JiHan was said to be a player who transcended Bronze, but it was still difficult for him to face the Flash Golem.

"If I couldn't use the Nameless Divine Art again, it would have been like that."

But now, even if it wasn't perfect, he could unleash martial arts.

He could kill it.

Pa-ji-ji-jik-

A white current spread from Sung JiHan's feet.

At the violent momentum, BJ GeumBit, who happened to be standing next to him, quickly moved his body to the side.

"What is this...?"

"I will deal with it alone."

Nameless Divine Art

Bojup Step Method

Seomcheonroebosenteonraebo

When Sung JiHan lifted his foot, a deep footprint was left on top of the tower.

Pat-

His body turned into light and disappeared.

"Uh, uh?!"

BJ Geumbit looked around with a bewildered expression, then his face turned to shock.

On top of the head of the Flash Golem, who was walking towards the tower, Sung JiHan was floating.

Even Geumbit, who was once a Goldrigger, couldn't grasp it at all, the instantaneous new technique.

Sung JiHan, on top of the head of the Flash Golem, raised his Chamado high.

"Although I obtained force and class as a mage and a supporter first."

It was only a means to become stronger.

Sung JiHan's essence was always a loner.

Sung JiHan condensed the energy of the Samdanjeon in his Chamado.

Zing-

Using consecutive martial arts that he didn't properly obtain, his whole body was in pain as if being squeezed.

"This should do."

Sung JiHan willingly endured the pain and unfolded his martial arts.

Mumyeongsingong

Samjaemuguk

Taesanapjeong

Samjaemuguk.

This martial arts, created by imitating heaven, earth, and man, was nothing more than the basics of Mumyeongsingong, despite its grand name.

Heaven cuts vertically, earth cuts horizontally, and man stabs.

Truly the basics of basics.

The top of the top among the third-class.

Nevertheless, the foundation of Mumyeongsingong.

Samjaemuguk also followed this principle.

And the Taesanapjeong that Sung JiHan unfolded was simple as a beginner.

Contrary to the grand meaning of crushing Taesan, in reality, it was just a vertical cut.

But when it was exerted to the extreme, the story changed.

Chwak!

When his Chamado struck down, the giant's steps towards the tower came to a sudden stop.

Compared to the size of the golem, this one swing was no different from an ant's bite.

The golem couldn't take another step.

And soon.

Jjeo-eo-eok-

From the head to the lower body of the Flash Golem, the whole body was split in half.

Not to mention the pile of corpses, but even the core of the Flash Golem, its heart, was split in half.

After that, when Sung JiHan landed on the ground.

Kureureur-!

The ground split.

Not only did it crush the giant, but it also left a scar on the ground, a strike that reached the limit of martial arts.

This was the Samjaemuguk Taesanapjeong.

* * *

Sung JiHan had an unsatisfied expression.

"The use of power is still not free."

He should have only cut the Flash Golem, but the aftermath of his power reached even below.

It was an incomplete Taesanapjeong.

However, this was something that others didn't know.

"......"

Behind Sung JiHan, a cold silence settled.

Thump. Degureur-

Masid dropped the ball he was lifting.

"Uh... uh."

BJ Geumbit lost his sense of duty.

"What did I just see?"

Sung JiHan unfolded his single sword.

It was a simple movement.

He simply relied on gravity, rather than swinging down.

Instead, the new technique of becoming a lightning and rising up into the sky was amazing.

However.

The result of his attack was so massive that it made even that seem forgettable.

When the light gathered on Sung JiHan's True Strike, and it struck down the Flash Golem.

BJ Geumbit felt as if he was being split apart.

Thump thump.

His heart raced like crazy. The sound of the heartbeat seemed to echo in his ears.

Thrill, and the fear that followed.

"Me, am I the only one... It can't be, right?"

He barely turned his head and looked at Masid.

Wearing bright sports attire, he was drenched in sweat all over his body.

BJ Geumbit was certain.

Even that emotionless soccer ball troll reacted like that.

That strike was something that could only be feared as a "living" being.

"......"

BJ Geumbit, who was looking at the Flash Golem being dismantled into a pile of corpses after losing its core.

"Ah!"

In an instant, he regained his senses and quickly turned his gaze to his chat window.

The countless viewers who had tuned in to see Sung JiHan's performance.

Perhaps they were also shocked, as the chat suddenly became quiet as if it was lagging.

And then, after a moment.

-ㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷ

-What did I just see?

-Bronze? Defeating the Flash Golem in one strike?

-It's a bug! A bug player!!!!!!!!

The reactions of the viewers who couldn't believe it flooded the chat, but.

Geumbit just shook his head slightly.

"That, you have to see it for yourself."

Sung JiHan's strike was on a completely different level from what you see on the screen.

The sensation of feeling like he was being torn apart himself.

The feeling of his whole body stiffening while only his heart thumped relentlessly.

It was an experience he had never felt even when he was in the Gold League.

"This feeling... is the first time."

Fear, despair, anticipation, longing.

Countless emotions mixed in his chest.

As a Warrior class, if he had briefly felt the despair that he couldn't catch up to Sung JiHan even if he died and came back to life.

"You... will become the best."

The next emotion that captivated Geumbit's heart was.

"I want to know more about you. I want to capture you on my screen, I want to film you."

As a broadcaster, it was the expectation and desire to capture this person who would become the greatest star.

Geumbit looked at Sung JiHan with a melancholic gaze.

Woosoo-

Because it was so huge, the pieces of the Flash Golem were still falling apart.

But the place where Sung JiHan stood with both feet was completely different from that strangeness.

It felt like he was the only one living in a different world.

Suddenly, that thought came to him.

Am I not capturing the present of a player who will become a legend?

[Bonus mission cleared.]

[Experience points and GP rewarded three times.]

[Logging out in a moment.]

A message appeared saying that the first place reward would be tripled, but.

Geumbit was more disappointed that he couldn't film Sung JiHan anymore.

"To part like this..."

As Geumbit looked at Sung JiHan with a disappointed gaze.

Flash!

Suddenly, Sung JiHan's figure disappeared, and he appeared in front of Masid.

More precisely.

"Um..."

Resting the soccer ball on his foot, in front of Masid.
