The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

Chapter 362

Thud. Thud.

Sung JiHan approached the statue of the golden throne.

Among the beasts, a statue resembling a tiger.

The crack in the statue was located near its leg.

"You... come out right now!"

Upon seeing this, the monkey monster, who had received a reprimand from the throne, shouted from afar.

Shwook!

Without responding, Sung JiHan took a picture of the golden statue with an eclipse.

Then, the eyes of the statue sparkled.

"What is this... Do you think breaking this will cut off the throne's sponsorship? You're wasting your efforts!"

"Oh? Even if the statue is broken, the essence remains, so the throne's sponsorship will continue, don't you think?"

"Have you seen the essence? Yes. No matter how much you try to break me, the sponsorship will continue. Now, all that's left for you is to be suppressed by players much weaker than you!"

"Oh?"

"Yes. So get lost quickly!"

While saying that, the statue of the throne emitted a powerful energy.

Unable to properly pierce Sung JiHan's black statue with that power, it tried to bounce him off.

But.

Honyeonsingong.

Myeolsinggyeol.

Mangwibongsin.

When Mangwibongsin was drawn at the tip of the sword.

Shuuuu!

From the golden statue, a faint smoke began to pour out rapidly.

"What, what is this...!"

The essence was absorbed into Mangwibongsin in an instant.

The statue of the throne seemed to sense that its condition was serious, and it flashed a bright light, trying to somehow bounce Sung JiHan off.

But.

"Just a little more."

While avoiding and enduring the counterattack, Sung JiHan continued to absorb the essence with Mangwibongsin.

Since the golden part was so small, Mangwibongsin couldn't absorb the opponent's essence all at once, but.

Compared to what he had eaten, he felt a rapid fulfillment inside Mangwibongsin.

"If I continue a little more, something good might come out."

Sung JiHan recalled a game he played in the past at the North Wall.

When he absorbed the fragments of the throne with Mangwibongsin, items popped out from within.

Although he couldn't actually use the items, they helped raise his stats by leaving the memories of the throne.

Where should I use it this time?

As Mangwibongsin continued to absorb the essence of the throne.

The one who became impatient was the throne.

"You... Instead of just watching, attack quickly!"

"Adjusting the power is still difficult..."

"Even if the statue is broken, it's fine. Drive this guy out!"

"I have your permission?"

In order to drive out Sung JiHan, who was somehow absorbing the essence, the throne was willing to endure the destruction of the statue.

At this, the monkey monster, who had been watching from afar, rushed towards Sung JiHan again.

"I'll join in too!"

Other players also joined one by one and launched their attacks.

Bang! Bang!

As intense attacks continued, Sung JiHan had no choice but to retract Mangwibongsin in order to avoid them.

"Oh."

But the statue had as much gold as it did, so there was a lot left.

"Thanks, guys. Thanks to you, I'll feast."

"Well......"

With a playful smile, Sung JiHan plunged his sword into the air, and once again, the Manifestation of Ten Thousand Spirits appeared.

This time, the Jin was much larger in scale than before.

"No way. You made this again so quickly......"

An absolute Jin that could absorb the soul of the Holy See.

Without knowing that it could be recreated so quickly, the Holy See was taken aback.

"I'll enjoy this."

Sung JiHan's Manifestation of Ten Thousand Spirits began to operate in earnest.

Shuuuu!

More spiritual energy was absorbed from the gilded statue, and the inside of the Jin was completely filled.

Pung!

Within it, a giant fang emerged.

"Finally, it's out."

An item containing the experience of the Holy See.

Although it contained the enlightenment of a completely different race from humanity.

Sung JiHan, who possessed the ability to nullify different species, was able to raise his stats through it.

"It's not a good time to absorb it right now. The situation is not favorable."

Attacks were coming from all directions.

Sung JiHan put it in his inventory and looked towards the gilded Holy See.

Compared to the fragment of the Holy See he had met before, it seemed that the opponent was a complete Holy See.

Even though it was absorbed so quickly by the Manifestation of Ten Thousand Spirits, there seemed to be more spiritual energy to absorb.

"As expected of the Holy See. There's a lot to eat."

Sung JiHan continued to dodge attacks while trying to maintain the Manifestation of Ten Thousand Spirits.

"Oh, it won't work. I'll cancel the support and go into the temple...!"

When the gilded statue of the Holy See mentioned the temple.

Kururur...!

The ground split open, and the large statue quickly disappeared into the ground.

"Huh? The Holy See is leaving...!"

"Damn, my power has decreased a bit...!"

As a result, one of the Holy See's supporters stopped supporting, and some players lost their power.

"But it's still not weakened much. It seems like my power has decreased by about 2-3 percent."

With this level, it's still difficult to engage in a large-scale battle.

Sung JiHan measured the strength of the enemies and turned his gaze to a distant place.

What he was aiming for was a place with as many statues of the Holy See as possible.

"I should go over there."

Whoosh!

Sung JiHan's new form extended towards the east.

"Where are you running!"

"Chase him quickly. That guy is trying to do something to the Holy See's statues...!"

"If the support from the Holy See disappears, we will definitely lose!"

The remaining players quickly followed behind him.

* * *

Star Cemetery map.

The situation of the survival game that Sung JiHan had completely dominated had strangely changed.

At first glance, it seemed that the players who received support from the Holy See were attacking Sung JiHan together, putting him in a completely disadvantageous situation.

-Why did those Holy See bastards suddenly appear?

-Just receiving support... ugh, they're getting scared of losing at the end.

-Wow, Sung JiHan is really good at dodging; it must be frustrating for the opponents.

-For real, he's being attacked from all sides, but he's skillfully escaping.

While human viewers worried about what would happen if Sung JiHan lost the game after seeing this battle situation.

-Absorbing the soul of the Holy See... There are so many things like that, huh?

-He's not breaking the statues on his own; he's using the power of the enemy players.

-Already the 9th seat has retreated. The players' movements have also slowed down significantly.

-And they think they can win like this...

-Ah, I thought I would lose this time, but this guy...

The extraterrestrial viewers, who have a higher level of perception, were able to grasp the true nature of the battle, which was different from what was apparent.

Sung JiHan, who uses the power of the opposing players to break the statues and absorbs the ethereal bodies by using the Man-Gwi Bongsin on the damaged parts.

(This crazy guy...! At this rate, he'll take all the ethereal bodies... I have to go to the palace...)

Shuuuu...

Already the 10th statue enters the ground.

The power of the opposing players has clearly weakened.

"How long are you going to run away!"

"Fight fair and square!"

Seeing Sung JiHan moving towards the next statue, the players shouted in frustration.

"If 12 people gather, do you think fair and square will come out of your mouth?"

"Ugh...!"

It wasn't the words of those who couldn't subdue Sung JiHan alone, but rather those who moved around in teams of 12.

"If we go to the side of the Seat's statue, wouldn't it be better not to attack?"

"I was going to do that during the 5th time. But that guy broke it..."

"R-really?"

"Yes. Just go to the golden part of the statue. Then absorb the Seat's soul with that strange formation. It's a headache..."

"If the Seat goes into the palace, the game will be over. We have to somehow succeed in the attack."

"Yeah... It's getting harder to handle him now. If the buffs disappear, we could all die."

If the situation continues like this, we will definitely lose.

In order to capture Sung JiHan somehow, the 12 players did their best.

(These useless people...)

(Even though they were given tremendous power, they can't make use of it at all.)

The Seats who supported them had already lost their patience.

(Absorbing the Seat's soul... The author is beyond the norm.)

(We have to give up on this game. We were trying to leave quickly in the first place, but if we lose the ethereal bodies here, we'll have to stay in the palace even longer.)

(Yes. Let's cut our losses on this one.)

Seeing the gears of the game turning, the Seats decided not to rely on the 12 players anymore.

"Ah, no. They can do it! They're starting to get used to it! Just trust them a little more! We can't afford to lose our weapons!"

Sung JiHan, who put the 10th Seat's items in his inventory, shouted when he heard the voice of the Seat from a distance.

(We're retreating!)

(I lost my weapon... Ugh, if I make another one, that's it!)

The Seats had already given up on the game.

Kururur...

The ground began to shake from all directions.

The statues of the Seats, which were high above the ground, quickly hid themselves underground.

-What's this, lololol

-The Seats are running away??

-Sung JiHan is desperately attacking their shields, lololol

-No, I mean, just hit them once, who would rely on them if they keep dodging like that, lololol

And...

"Oh, no..."

"The blessings have disappeared..."

The 12 players looked at each other with despair in their eyes.

They, who had been emitting a strong momentum thanks to the support of the Seats, had now returned to being individual players.

"Ha..."

Step by step.

Sung JiHan took a deep breath and walked towards the 12 players.

Among the players, Sung JiHan was the smallest in size.

However.

In his footsteps, the rest of the players were unknowingly taking steps back.

Even when there was support from the Holy See, he was an opponent who couldn't land a valid hit.

Now that the support is gone, he couldn't muster the courage to fight.

"Hey, are you guys also candidates for the Holy See?"

"W-Well, yes."

"Really? In the Grandmaster League?"

"...I'm in the Star League."

Upon hearing those words, Sung JiHan furrowed his brow.

The Star League, which is comprised of players from level 450 to 500.

Why is this guy hanging out where the Grandmasters play?

"So that means you're above level 450."

"I'm at level 4,478."

"But why are you so weak? I should have lost an arm or a leg. The Holy See should have given hope."

Hmph.

While saying that, Sung JiHan's dark sword emitted a strong aura.

One of the players who saw this shouted in disbelief.

"You, of all people! Did you deceive us... How can a player who isn't even part of the Holy See possess such power?"

"That's right. How can a sealed being have such power...!"

The players, who were not convinced by the battles so far, began to voice their disbelief one by one.

But Sung JiHan, who had no intention of listening to them, swung his dark sword.

Their bodies were sent flying in all directions.

[You have achieved first place in the Special Survival Map, 'Graveyard of the Stars'.]

Along with the game-ending message that appeared.

Normally, this would result in a logout.

[You have achieved first place without the support of the Holy See.]

[You have cleared an epic quest.]

[You have gained 100,000 Holy See reputation.]

[You can choose one item from the Graveyard of the Stars.]

Thanks to the reward from the epic quest that allowed him to choose an item, he was now summoned to a space filled with darkness instead of reality.

"Oh, they only give one."

I wondered if the reward for the epic quest, which was said to be four times the reward due to the sealing of abilities, would also apply to the item, but it seems they don't give that much.

Sung JiHan sighed with disappointment.

At that moment.

Flash! Flash!

Light burst forth from all directions.

Various shapes of artifacts began to emerge from the space of darkness.

[Among these, you can choose one item.]

At a glance, there were over 100 artifacts.

There were more unknown equipment than equipment that humans could use.

It seems that because there are various races, items like this came out...

"Most of them are too big for me to use."

Among the solitary Holy Sees, there were no races similar in size to humans.

Sung JiHan looked around the equipment with a disappointed gaze.
