[Experience points have increased by 21,000,000.]

[Faction points have increased by 200.]

-Oh.

-21 million. lol

-High-grade monster dd;

-Let’s gather Sacred Body Faction kids and catch them.

-Real, why even go to the field?

The message that popped up with Mason’s death.

Fitting for a high ranking, the reward values were clearly much higher.

The dropped gold and items being insignificant was within the range of expectation.

‘There will likely be stronger ones too.’

The 350th rank was considerably high, but somehow he didn’t receive a feeling that this would be the end.

If there were people within the top 300, it was difficult to even know how much of a gap they would show.

Even if he used the changed Forest of Illusions, he would need to be a bit more wary.

“Black Dragon-nim, would it be okay to head that way?”

Then, No-eul, who had climbed up above a tree at some point, asked cautiously.

Looking at Wendy next to him, it seemed she had helped.

“I’ll head that way. Let’s move while detouring.”

Ground where it was no longer possible to stand because of the large stimulation applied.

There was no reason to be here.

“As for me… when are you going to take me out?”

“Ah.”

Ping-pong was submerged up to his neck in the ground that had become a blood puddle.

Hwik—

Han-bit, who took out a rope and threw it, pulled him out.

Although he had turned entirely bright red, at least the pure white shield was fine.

“…Are there more humans like that from earlier?”

Wendy, who had watched the battle, was in a state where her expression had darkened.

No matter how much elves were a strong race, an individual did not possess power enough to overwhelm everything.

Especially in a situation where the state of the elves turned strange, things could only become more dangerous.

“I don’t know exactly. For now, if my companions join…”

Han-bit, who was delivering the explanation, stopped his words momentarily.

His gaze was fixed on Haneul’s screen which had turned dark red.

“?”

The instruction he had given her was to continue moving to the left tree.

Because he judged it as the safest method while grasping the environment there.

As her appearance of moving was clearly visible until just a moment ago, the sudden change was strange.

「Haneul, what’s wrong?」

Han-bit sent a message immediately.

But an answer did not return in any form.

‘She hasn’t been taken down yet.’

Haneul’s nickname displayed on one side still had clear blue light.

At least it was not a situation leading to death.

“Black Dragon-nim, this…”

No-eul also became a serious face as if he discovered the change.

Right then it was.

(Pajik—!)

A golden spark flashed at the edge of Haneul’s screen which had been dyed pitch black.

It was truly a split-second moment, but Han-bit did not miss it.

‘So you’ve come here too.’

Electric shock with a feeling completely different from ordinary magic.

It was clearly spirit power.

Han-bit, who finished his judgment, immediately said while looking at Ping-pong.

“Shield, use it now.”

“Yes? There’s nothing in the surroundings…”

He, who was looking around while dusting off his armor, stopped his words momentarily.

It was because he saw Black Dragon’s expression which had turned cold.

“Understood.”

Slig—

As he used the Guardian’s Shield, a spherical thin white barrier was spread in the surroundings.

“Follow me.”

Han-bit, who checked that, walked forward with the three people.

Kkureuk—

A spring of blood sprouting from the nearby floor.

Inside the Forest of Illusions stained in blood color, everything looked like a trap.

But if one knew the results that would break out, they could use it usefully as much as they wanted.

Slig—

Han-bit, who stood at the boundary of the spring, held up his sword where the light attribute was dwelling.

And the moment he thrusted the sword tip into the center.

Splash—!

A wave of bright red blood swept over the four people.

***

「Ping-pong, stay as you are, and Haneul, continue to move to the tree on the left from your current position. Be careful not to touch the floor.」

Tat—!

Haneul, who received Han-bit’s message, kicked off without any agonizing.

She also did not forget to use Shadow Stealth to not be discovered by enemies.

Tadat—!

Crossing between trees was now an easy task.

Because she had been performing training to develop movement in various ways in her spare time.

Thanks to that, she could move quickly while raising her speed.

While advancing in one direction like that.

Pajik—!

A faint spark sound was heard from somewhere.

Haneul, who wondered if it was Han-bit’s battle sound, tried to raise her speed a bit more.

However.

Pat—!

Suddenly the body’s movement stopped along with an immense light.

“!”

Haneul, who froze in mid-air, fell toward the ground as she was.

Cheol-peok—!

Her vision, having collapsed on the ground where blood was thick, was dyed in dark red.

As she had set the camera that was transmitting the party screen to her gaze, that must be the same as well.

Tak—

Then, a sound of something landing was heard near the head.

‘Hey, shi*t…!’

Haneul, who couldn’t perform any action, could not even know the opponent’s identity.

Even the wind of the spirit Shuriel was not felt.

Was it a unique monster inhabiting the forest?

Was it a crazy elf?

Was it a Sacred Body Faction player?

None of them were not dangerous, but right now she was too powerless.

Pajik—!

While all sorts of thoughts were rushing, golden sparks flashed.

It was a short light appearing at the edge of the vision even though it wasn’t seen properly.

Slig—

Simultaneously, a cold sensation felt at the nape of the neck.

She couldn’t know if it was a weapon or what.

Just a sense of crisis as if she would soon reach death filled her head clearly.

However.

Tat—!

Suddenly the sensation at the nape disappeared along with a light footstep sound.

Thought quickly mixing at the unexpected situation.

Reaching a conclusion was not that difficult.

‘Black Dragon-nim!’

It was not Han-bit who would fail to notice the current anomaly.

Surely he must be using some other method to come here, it was possible to predict without seeing.

If so, the reason the enemy disappeared without killing her was only one.

They were luring the target named Black Dragon.

‘I have to tell him…!’

In a situation where even the fingertips could not be moved, any contact was impossible.

Heading here to save her like this was the same as running into a trap.

If everything was messed up because of this matter, it wouldn’t be strange even if she fell into self-loathing.

Absolutely not that…

Huuuk—!

Then, suddenly heavy wind settled within the space.

It was instantaneous that a familiar voice was heard.

“I’ll help you up.”

Han-bit’s voice echoing within the dark red vision.

Simultaneously, the frozen body was picked up abruptly.

Drip- drop-

The frustrating front of her eyes returned to normal along with falling blood droplets.

The forms of her older brother No-eul and Ping-pong were also seen next to her.

“Paralysis will be released by the Purification of Light. You guys stay here.”

Han-bit, who moved her to a safe floor, turned his back alone.

A blond man standing in front of him who was walking slowly.

It was Odin who had attacked in the Cube of Hell.

***

“We meet again here.”

Han-bit, standing with his sword hanging down, looked at the enemy.

As it was in the Cube of Hell, he did not think he would have this kind of relationship with Odin.

It was to the point that a feeling as if the eye for seeing people built up over a long, long time had broken.

-Odin…

-This kid was holy sh*t kind, why did he become like this?

-Reverse change itself;

-More than that, didn’t he become strong too fast?

-All the answers are inside the Holy State.

Viewers had a similar heart as well.

It was proof that the perception of the person named Odin was that solid.

“You wouldn’t have needed to lure me specifically.”

Han-bit said while glancing at Haneul who was recovering in the back.

Regardless of having noticed after seeing the golden sparks, the intention of not applying additional attacks to her was clearly to draw him in.

If he had killed Haneul right away, Han-bit would have also made another choice.

“I will also do my best this time.”

As if such an intention was no matter, Odin said with a blunt expression.

In the feeling that had become colder than in the Cube of Hell, the kind appearance of the past was hardly seen.

“I’ll do the same.”

Pajik—!

Simultaneously with that answer, intense electric shocks were produced around Odin.

It seemed as if an emotion harboring some resolution was felt.

「Humans have crossed the line.」

Then, suddenly Aerial’s voice echoed in his head.

It was an emotion close to lamentation, not anger or anything.

Han-bit had also noticed the reason.

‘Just what did they do.’

A small humanoid spirit with golden hair floating near Odin’s head.

Because he hadn’t seen it clearly in the Cube of Hell, there was a large problem discovered only now.

That it was different from the appearances of Greater Electric Spirits he had seen countless times in the other world.

Should I say an artificial change had been added.

It was absolutely not something a spirit could carry out by itself.

Moreover.

Pajik—!

The electric shock itself was in a state where it had become noticeably stronger than when seen in the Cube of Hell.

Even if it was because of individual stats and skill proficiency, the growth speed was somehow strange.

Kwagwagwagwang—!

Then, an intense electric area arose around the two people.

Han-bit also used the Wild Dance of a Thousand Swords as if responding to it.

Shwiik—!

Pajijik—!

The spherical area of wind wrapping sharply collided with the electric area and burst intense sparks.

Han-bit and Odin, who came to trap each other, stood facing each other on the floor where blood droplets were splashing.

‘…He obtained that.’

Chwareuk—!

In the hand of Odin, who used to use a silver hammer, a dazzlingly blue spear was held.

The Spear of Tidal Wave, one of the relic weapons.

Looking at the appearance closely, it seemed the touch of the artisan Astell had reached it.

The electric shock mixed with water streaks was unique and beautiful.

-What’s with the spear?

-Where did the hammer go;

-Changing weapons cowardly.

-Looks holy sh*t expensive?

-Is the Sacred Body Faction the future…

-★Sacred#Body Faction★$$Instant Payment$$ upon joining

“You’ve become strong quickly in many ways. You must be a promising talent in the Sacred Body Faction?”

“…”

Odin remained silent at the casually thrown out words.

His answer appeared as an action, not words.

Pajik—!

Odin, who disappeared along with intense electric shock.

Han-bit, not flustered, swung his sword toward the air as it was.

Kaang—!

The impact delivered while echoing a sharp roar sent the body bouncing back spontaneously.

As expected, it was a nonsense strength and speed, but this place was not an ordinary place.

Shwiik—!

Han-bit, who was being pushed back, thrusted his sword quickly into an exact location on the ground.

Pajik—!

Odin, who rushed while lighting up again, swung the spear greatly.

An irregular attack using the long reach.

But the change of terrain had already started.

Kwagwagwa—!

Blood-clot thorns sprouting from the floor covered the vision fully.

Because of that, the spear Odin swung could not reach Han-bit.

Wooo—!

Han-bit, who spread a sphere of gravity on the floor, moved while stepping recklessly on the ground, trees, and rocks.

The World Tree’s branch held in his hand also demonstrated its power.

Kwadudeu—!

Vines sprouting from all directions made the inside of the area a field of obstacles.

Tat—!

Han-bit, who changed the environment advantageously, moved inside the area at an immense speed.

No matter how much Odin had become strong, the difference in experience was absolute.

Kang—!

Kaang—!

The attacks that continued to surge were connected frantically.

The blood-colored floor also changed continuously to the point that prediction was difficult.

Huuuk—

Even in that, wind that was gradually being stacked strongly.

The flow inside and outside the area also changed sharply.

Pajik—!

Odin also clad electric shock as if to respond, but he could not even follow with his eyes properly.

As expected, he was still in a state where experience was lacking.

「He’s strange!」

Sylph threw a question toward the Greater Electric Spirit.

Perhaps because of that, it also felt like she was pouring in power more passionately.

Huuuk—!

In the meantime, the amplified wind exceeded the limit.

Tat—!

Han-bit, who was running inside the area, took a posture in a blind spot hidden by vines.

And the moment he escaped through the gap in between.

Shwiik—!

He used the wind blade toward Odin.

Huuuk—!

Shwiik—!

Simultaneously, dozens of wind blades produced from the sphere poured down like crazy.

Even with a fast movement, there was no way to avoid within the area.

Slig—

Odin also judged so, as he stopped his movement and took a posture.

And the moment the sharp wind blades were about to reach him.

Kwagwagwagwa—!

An immense sized ocean current wrapping the body shot up like a waterspout.

Shwiiiik—!

That power, which received the incoming wind blades head-on, distorted into a bizarre form and let out a scream.

Watching that appearance, Han-bit immediately kicked off.

Shwiik—!

Five-colored sword blade thrusted toward the gap in the crack.

That attack, which flew toward the enemy’s neck, produced a proper effective hit.

Puuk—!

The sword tip dug into Odin’s shoulder and pierced through greatly.

It was because the movement had become sluggish, whether it was the aftermath of the technique.

Kwagwagwagwa—!

The surroundings which were holy sh*t noisy because of the collision of powers still remaining.

As even the vision was covered, what was seen on the camera was like noise.

Slig—

Han-bit tried to pull out the sword to finish it.

However.

Teok—!

Odin caught the sharp sword blade and thrust his head forward firmly.

And meeting eyes, he echoed a heavy voice.

“Black Dragon-nim, you must not go to the World Tree right now.”
