ACT 8 At the End of hell

‘……What now? ‘

He fell at an enorh a dark space

It felt like he was being drawn so or howis certain The longer it took to reach the bottoe would exponentially increaseIf the flow did not appear within a few minutes………

‘My re health was 150, even if I use the Racial Special Skill of the Cat Knight, I would still die ‘But after that was the problem

The hell was in the Cairo region, but he didn’t know if the depths exceeded 1 kilometre or it the effects of the scrolls had disappeared

However, the [Seize] scroll used just before falling didn’t designate an area or distance limitation

If he died, then he must be prepared to lose 1~2 of his equipped items

It would be a fatal blowBut that wasn’t really the issue he orried about

‘Andel……!’

He had not considered his spirit

Andel hired assassin with a few hundred goldHe also came forward and chased after Ark directly

He gave up on questing and levelling up

His intention to becoe on Ark

‘As long as he is convinced that uard it even for the few days until I revive ‘

Andel was such a personHe wouldn’t be able to sleep and guard the resurrection point 24 hours a day But when the assassins also guarded in shi+fts then there would be no gaps for Ark to revive

Eventually Ark would have to log in or lose access to his iteh probability that he would be PKed

The NPCs in the lawless city of Cairo won’t lift a finger to help users

In this situation, rules don’t exist

‘A to end up like this?’

When he thought about it, his chest fluttered uneasily

It is nonsense How far have I raised Ark?

Aame anymore because of Andel?

New World ame, but to Ark it was his reality and lifeArk was able to eat rice every day and pay for his mother’s medical bills thanks to New World

‘I just found itI desperately found itA way that I could liveAnd a place I want to liveI can’t give up I would never give it up just because of Andel’

He made up his mind about what he wanted to do

He had to show his guts

Because that was the only thing Ark had

‘I have to live! To protect yourself from Andel, you have no choice but to live, think Ark! Think of ways to survive! It’s not realNothing is iive up then there must be a way to survive! ‘

Ark desperately rolled his head

Meanwhile, Ark had been falling and could finally see the ground

He was approaching pillars that rose froround At the bottos

A spark suddenly occurred in Ark’s mind

‘hell’s fangs! Ok, maybe ……! ‘

Ark struggled to maintain his posture in thin air

And he clenched his sword and concentrated with both eyes

‘The chances are only fleeting! If I’m 01 seconds too late or early then I’m screwed! ‘

The sight of the ground where he could hit his head felt evenHis body would break like a toHowever, Ark clenched his teeth together and opened his eyes widerAnd just as the bottom approached!

‘Riposte!’

Ka ka ka kak! Jja Jjang!

With his full power, Ark swung his sword

He pushed at the stone pillar with his sword

At the moment, all his poas concentrated on Ark’s ar the distance of the stone pillar approaching at high speed wasn’t much different from an offensive froambled that a counterattack would occur

The special effect of Riposte was to push the opponent back 10than the shock would be returned to ArkUsing Einstein’s principle of relativity the results were easily predicted

bump!

Ark’s body stopped in the air, as the brakes were jammed

At the sae caused by the fall was annulled for the moment

Ark didn’t miss the opportunity and kicked the stone pillar with his footAnd using the elasticity of his body, he avoided the stone pillar and broke his fall

A violent impact shook his shoulders and back

-Cat Knight’s ability to alleviate the da your flexibility, the dae of the fall was reduced by 30

‘It’s a success! ‘

Ark teared up at the sight of the e

It orth everyup Riposte until he formed blisters on his handIt was a desperate mo s the special ability of the Cat Knight, he only received 50 dae

It orth it to dig up this heroic achievement!

However, before he could celebrate a red light appeared in succession

-You were attacked by Blood Sucking Leeches 5 dae!

“What, what the?”

Ark said in surprise

In the area surrounding Ark were red fist-sized leeches So blood

Using his sword, Ark was able to kill three or four of them but more took their place

In an instant, his health was sucked out until he only had 30 left

“damn it! Did I survive all that just to be killed by leeches? Spirit of the Cat!

Nyahhhh!

Ark’s pupils’ glowed gold as the fore black cat appeared

He revealed sharp fangs and he stared at the leeches sucking his blood also stiffened and fell off

The floor was covered with leeches

The Spirit of the Cat caused paralysis which lasts for 1 minute!

‘1 minute to kill all the leechesAnd his skills used mana I only have 30 health left which et out of here for the ti’

Ark used Eyes of the Cat to search for a way out

Then Ark saw a dark hole which could barely fit one person on the side of the roomThere was no lineArk stepped on leeches as he headed towards the holeFortunately, the leeches didn’t chase after him

Ark entered the whole and looked for a little ht

He crawled along the whole for a couple ofpool, the floor suddenly sloped and dropped somewhere

Suddenly a eappeared in front of Ark

“Ah, huh?”

hell’s Underground LabyrinthYou’ve discovered the underground labyrinth that emits a terrible odour in the depths of CairoPerhaps this labyrinth has existed even before Cairo was built

It is unclear what the purpose for building it wasBut as it was underneath Cairo, all the filth and corpses naturally entered the labyrinth

Due to all the filth dued to a stench filled one capable of covering a further deformity

-You have found an undiscovered dungeon When you register with the Hall of Faain 1000 experience and 70 Faister?

“The [Trace] scroll has stopped reacting”

“Tired”

“That guy was stronger than I thought”

The assassins flocked to the edge of the abyss

It was hard to even fathom the depth to the bottom of the hellOnce you fall there was a 100 chance of dying No, even if he survived there was no way of getting back upHe would have no choice but to die and resurrect……

“He fell into the hell so that it wouldn’t be possible to pick up his equipment”

“I don’t care about that It is trivial because he was dressed shabbily and his iteold on scrollsI just wanted to ar ”

“Well, then I don’t care ……For the ti, is it done?”

“Not yet”

Andel said with a cool smile

“This is just the beginning When I think of that fellow, it isn’t possible to just leave it like thisThat fellow has to payEven when he is stripped naked and all his stats reduced to zero! I’ll kill him a hundred times more

Andel said forcefully as he turned around

“It is certain that he will return to CairoBecause I expect you to guard the resurrection point, you won’t be able to return iht not connect for a whileFrom now on, be patient That noob also did it to me for several days…Even if it takes several ain until he finally loses access

Andel led the assassins towards the quartermaster

A person’s grudge was a scary thing

“Refuse registration”

Ark naturally rose to his feet

Andel would be looking for him for payback

There was no reason to do foolish things for information

‘The bottoeon……… ‘

Ark removed the filth from his body and looked aroundThe complex pathas etherhell’s underground labyrinth was its original nae system for CairoRotten water reached the ankle and a bad stench wafted from the mountains of filth scattered all overIt was a situation that was horrible for the eyes and the nose

The realistic scenario meant he actually had to think about it

‘Okay, what now … …‘

Of course, the ent problem was to recover his health froht for a while as it recovered his health

For the ti, he had survivedThe worst situation where he wouldn’t be able to connect to the game anymore was avoidedHowever, it was too early to rejoice due to the auous situation

The first time he came to Cairo and saw the information about the hell, it said that there was no record of anyone escaping the hell after they fell in

However, Ark thought positively

‘To be more precise, the place I am now is not the hell

It is a hidden Dungeon There wouldn’t be a dungeon with no exitYes, for the ti I’ll secure an exit’

He’ll look for a way out to get revenge on Andel and then explore the dungeon ……either way his first priority was to secure his own safety

Now, ‘not dying’ is the

‘The fact that it is a labyrinth dungeon means that it would definitely contain monsters’

“Summon Demon, Dedric!”

As soon as his spiritual poas restored, he summoned Dedric

A diht shone and Dedric appeared with his nose crinkled and frowned

“Phew, h, this place is……? ”

“The situation is like thisAnyway, it is urgent to find the exit froate around and search for it Also notify me immediately if monsters appear”

“Kuu……Seeot it”

Dedric chose a path and flew along it

But Dedric returned 2 minutes later and shook his head

“There is no visible exit around hereAnd the terrain is too complex for me to find my way back ”

“Any monsters?”

“Not that I sae”

“Really? Strange There should be some……”

Burst!

Ark had taken one step forward down a passageWhen suddenly sorabbed his ankles

“What, what the?”

Ark flinched and looked down at the water where rotten hands were holding his ankleArk swung his sword and hastily stepped back

It was then that an audible noise was heard

It was a sleeping radually raised its’ bodyThe rotting flesh was attached to the bones of thethere before, there was now 6Ark

‘Polluted skeleton?’

It was level 110!

Dalgurak, ttadadak, dalgeurak!

The heads of the six skeletons turned around and focused on ArkAfter a moment, flame spewed from their eyes as a defensesword

“Oh damn! Snake, nerve paralysis poison! ”

Ssak ssak ssak!

Ark wielded his sword and twisted it

Five skeletons instantly met a critical hit and were pushed backHowever, the skeletons weren’t paralyzed

Their flesh was rotting off the boneOf course there wouldn’t be nerves to paralyzeFurthermore, the Polluted Skeletons were skeletons who had been transformed by pollutants

The beginner’s deadly poison that Snake produces is just like water to them

Rather, the poisonous effect restored health

‘Poison absorption characteristic? Why do I meet monsters immune to poison at this time? ‘

However, that was not the end of the problem

-You received a blow froe!

‘Tetanus’ Reaction is slowed and you will receive 10 dae every 5 seconds for 1 minute

All of the skeletons wielded their weapons

He was unluckyThere were all kinds of gerh probability of getting tetanus

Tetanus stunned the body and made it heavierThis made it difficult to evade the attacks of the skeleton however that wasn’t the only thing

‘……So far, I have only been relying on poison? ‘

After he received the serpent poison skill, it certainly made battles easier

He could use the poison in combination with kicks since most opponents were stunned

In particular, Ark frequently used the poison nerve paralysis It was a poison which paralyses the ars and made it easier to disable an opponent quicklyTherefore, Ark had unknowingly relied on it during battle to slow the monsters

That was one of the reasons he wasn’t able to respond to the movements of the assassinsProfessional assassins would have immunity to most of the racial special skills held by users

He used the combo skill of Sword-Hand combat with RiposteThe success rate of the same poison was also quite low

‘Yes, I’ve been far too complacentI’ve relied too much on those skillsIt made the battle easier but lowered his actual battle skillsSkills such as Eyes of the Cat and poison are ihting enemiesI’ll focus on my Sword-Hand combat skill! ‘

Yes, that is the basis of the game

Warriors Sword Mastery, Magiciansto fully hone your skills is to properly utilize the jobs primary weapon! In Ark’s case, that consisted of Sword-Hand combat

‘Wake up Ark! Now is not the time to let your attention wander!’

His aie with the ene he knew as a noviceYou don’t knohen so basic could be useful

‘I’ around!’

Ark bit his lips so tightly that it started bleeding

The brain moves the body

It is natural for the es!

If you don’t have a resolute mind then your reactions are slower, but when your e quickly occursIt was disrespectful to say that a battle doesn’t rely on your mind

‘If the opponent is open then you have to figure out the flow of the battlefield!’

Ark quickly widened his view of the battlefield

Now he had to tackle the skeleton wielding a sword and looked at the movements of the skeletons with skin

“Dedric, the rear! Plan D-2! ”

Dedric flew to the rear of the skeletons while Ark quickly attacked

Ark went forithout looking back and forth

The skeleton wielded his swordArk instantly twisted and shoved his sword in the lower back

Counter attack!

The skeleton stepped back shocked

Then two skeletons wielding swords attacked from both sides

Ark had already identified their moveround and did a sweeping low kick

The low kick was not a technique seen in normal taekwondo moves

Ark saw the rated it into his kicks

The skeletons were hit by the kick and fell down

They were light because they were only bones and collapsed easily He then kicked the skeletons until they were disassembled piece by piece
