The 88th floor of Petronas Twin Towers Dungeon.

This was the habitat of the ‘steel centipede’.

Centipedes larger than humans were tangled together.

Hundreds of steel centipedes were tangled together, rubbing against each other, making an unpleasant clicking sound.

The rubbing of the whole body seemed to be mating.

It was gross and disgusting, to the point of making me sick to my stomach.

‘crazy!’

The steel centipedes couldn’t feel Kayleen, perhaps because they heard so many small metal noises.

A very distant, soft light was visible.

It was a small light, like a small star in the night sky.

‘Is that the way out?’

The odds of surviving against those countless steel centipedes were close to zero.

Anyway, the elevator stopped working.

It was possible to go up, but impossible to go down again.

I had to move as carefully as possible without getting caught, because I was caught in the middle of those countless centipedes.

‘I can’t die here!’

He had no time to think about why Cha Jin-hyeok, who had moved first, was nowhere to be seen.

For now, I decided to focus on surviving.

* * *

[You have arrived at the underground habitat.]

A little time passed.

“Everyone has arrived.”

No steel centipede showed up until everyone arrived.

The bait on the 88th floor seemed to be doing its job well.

If even one player enters the 88th floor, the difficulty of this ‘underground habitat’ is drastically lowered.

The number of steel centipedes to deal with is reduced by more than half, and only relatively weak individuals are encountered.

“brother. But why did you lie so badly? You just told me to come downstairs.”

“Ah, I was tailed.”

“tailing?”

“uh. came in with me It’s the same one last time, but it looks like he’s learned a new stealth skill.”

I didn’t exactly look at the new stealth skill.

I thought it would be too obvious that I noticed if I did it for no reason.

It’s probably something like ‘subtlety’ that you learn at level 40.

“But why did you leave it alone?”

“Are you going to send me upstairs?”

“Why? Why?”

“They say the difficulty here gets really low when players go in there. I saw it in the future diary.”

“So who are the players there?”

“Well?”

that was not what i knew

He’s an assassin who killed signs and kept following me.

In fact, at the point of being caught tailing, he has nothing to say even if he dies.

‘If you have excellent stealth skills and survival instincts, you can live, but if you attack unjustly, you will die.’

Either way it didn’t matter.

But I’d probably die with that kind of skill that even me would find out.

Jinsol Cha looked at me with her eyes wide open.

“Brother, you know it’s a bit scary sometimes, right?”

“Why?”

“I’m more afraid of not knowing that.”

“There are a lot of scary things.”

Cha Jin-sol was originally a bit difficult for me since I was young.

After passing Jin-Sol Cha’s words off, I explained the strategy in my own way.

Since we don’t broadcast, we didn’t have to reinforce the probability of each phrase.

“Let’s dig up the ground first.”

I dug the ground with my kids.

It required a fairly large pit, but the wooden strings made it fairly easy to dig.

“Moo Jae-hyeon. You are here protecting the children.”

“Tongue, brother?”

“There is a monster over there? I will lure you into a trap.”

I thought maybe the kids wouldn’t be in much danger.

I’m not sure how long the black panties upstairs will hold up, but it’ll be pretty easy if she’ll hold up, and a little easier if she won’t last long.

‘It was a structure where if there were people upstairs, they would attack one by one.’

I walked forward.

[LV37/Steel Centipede/Skill]

The reason why steel centipedes are dangerous is because they attack in groups.

It wasn’t that difficult to deal with each one.

I picked up a stone and threw it towards the steel centipede.

widely!

The steel centipede found me and started crawling towards me.

Chick-Geek-!

I heard the sound of my legs moving.

‘Oh, that metal sound.’

It’s been a while since I heard it, but I really hated it.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen it, and it looks really creepy.

Occasionally, even among players with very good skills, there were cases where they were unable to use their strength against arthropod-type monsters like that, but that was understandable.

‘It’s faster than I thought.’

It approached quickly and spewed venom at me.

‘Relay barrier.’

Each attack is not that strong.

I used a relay barrier to block his venom.

In the gap between using the skill, the distance between him and him widened a little more.

‘It’s easy.’

They succeeded in luring them to the pit.

At the edge of the pit there was a gap just big enough for one person to pass through, and I stepped over it to cross the pit.

The steel centipede fell into the pit.

“Oh, brother. coming up?”

“Surely you’ll come up?”

They are kids who just climb up the slippery glass surface.

It is so natural to come up.

I took out a potion from my chest.

──────────

[lower corrosive liquid]

A liquid that reacts with and corrodes everything of a particular component.

──────────

If you just get this through players, it’s only 50,000 diamonds per bottle.

It’s hard to find right now, so I bought it at a brokerage store.

For reference, if you buy it at a middle-tier store, it costs 1 million Diana per bottle.

No matter how you think about it, it’s a huge overkill.

Anyway, low-class corrosive liquid exerts a very great effect on all ‘steel’ monsters below level 40.

‘It’s best to pour it right on the head.’

It is best to pour it directly into the head.

This was a method proven through research and experimentation by countless people.

Chii Ik-

Smoke rose from the steel centipede’s head.

Cha Jin-sol was frightened.

“Oh, brother! Gye, keep coming up!”

“Why do you keep saying things like that?”

I calmly poured the corrosive liquid into it.

There’s no way a monster approaching level 40 will die in one hit.

It’s natural to keep climbing.

I’ve heard that real money rotting kids sometimes buy tons of that caustic and fill that puddle with it.

That’s crazy no matter how you think about it.

I don’t want to do anything so inefficient.

Chi-Ik-!

As I poured the entire bottle, the centipede’s head landed close to my feet.

‘Relay barrier.’

Knock!

He bit my foot, but it didn’t hurt much.

Thanks to the caustic liquid, the guy’s shell is in a state of being mushy.

The head, which was originally a vital point, has turned into a more fatal vital point.

In addition, those affected by the corrosive liquid become more violent and desperate.

As if he would never let go of my foot, he tightened his chin.

‘Then thank you.’

Biting me tight means it’s fixed.

I raised my dagger and slashed the guy in the head.

hooked!

Green blood splattered.

This blood is also slightly toxic, causing some trouble, but not enough to interfere with play.

You just have to be careful of what gets in your eyes.

hooked! hooked! hooked!

I tried using a dagger, and the taste is pretty good.

[You have killed the steel centipede.]

“Anyway, one bottle is a bit risky, but.”

Jinsol Cha misunderstood my words.

“Then I should use two bottles.”

“What are you talking about?”

In other words, ‘the most dangerous’ is ‘the most efficient’.

Read at noblemtl.com

Giving up low-cost, high-efficiency and going for high-cost, low-efficiency?

that sounds crazy

“There’s another spawned over there. We will hunt the same way. You guys are just watching.”

Come to think of it, the black panties upstairs are still alive.

If he died, two or three would have been regenerated, but only one was being regenerated.

The next guy that appeared was 1 level lower, so it was a little easier.

The next one was 1 level higher than the first one, but thanks to me getting used to this, I actually hunted it more easily than the first one.

I continued to hunt the steel centipede.

‘Is this the 20th time?’

At first it was delicious and fun, but now it’s a bit boring.

It was because the children were so helpless in the corrosive liquid that they didn’t feel a sense of danger.

There is no sense of crisis, so there is no choice but to be fun.

hooked! hooked!

I mercilessly thrust the dagger into the head of the last, twentieth, steel centipede.

[You have killed the steel centipede.]

After him, the steel centipede was no longer regenerated.

I didn’t have to worry about it for long because I knew everything about the strategy anyway.

“Perhaps the regen of the steel centipede is over. Let’s move.”

I walked along the long aisle with the children.

‘There will be a small glass box at the end of this road.’

There should be a scroll glowing red inside the glass box.

If you tear the scroll, you can acquire the attribute ‘Mental Barrier’.

‘There he is.’

In the past, I struggled a bit to get this.

This is because this is a special dungeon where the difficulty increases exponentially the more you clear it.

My colleagues and I acquired ‘Mental Barrier’ here about the 80th time, but after us, ‘Mental Barrier’ has disappeared.

‘yes?’

But it was a bit strange.

──────────

[?]

──────────

Originally, the name ‘Mental Barrier’ should have been clearly visible, but the name was displayed as ‘?’.

In this case, you have to touch and absorb it to know for sure what kind of characteristics it is.

‘It must be a mental barrier, what.’

It seems that the setting is that the name of the person who gets it first will be revealed after acquiring the ‘Mental Barrier’.

Without a doubt, I reached for the scroll and tore it apart.

A notification came soon after.

[Acquisition of the characteristic, ‘Emperor’s Pride’.]

‘Eh?’

I was at a loss for words for a moment.

I don’t know why there is a king’s status here.

‘Did something really good come out?’

I was only going to do 3rd place.

Thank you so much if this excessively good thing comes out unnecessarily.

Let’s get the status of the emperor, the elevator was created again in front of me.

If you select the ‘▲’ button there, you will go back to the original place and the dungeon will be cleared.

“Okay, everyone saw it, right? It’s a very easy dungeon.”

“… … .”

Somehow the kids didn’t say anything.

Everyone seems to agree with me.

“Let’s repeat this so that you guys can get each of these traits one by one.”

“… … .”

“Next is Kim Jung-hyun’s turn.”

Let’s say I got the status of a king in a special way because I was the ‘first judgement’.

Even the kids won’t get the status of a king, right?

I guess you have to try it yourself.

* * *

The black panties seemed to be surviving longer than expected.

Difficulty was very low.

“Let’s move on quickly.”

I think it would be better to proceed as quickly as possible when there is a bait on the 88th floor.

Actually, this was a good opportunity for them too.

“The dignity of an emperor… … got… … yeah.”

and crazy

Kim Jeong-hyeon also earned the title of ‘king of the king’.

It must have been a setting in which a small number of people in the beginning were given the ‘King of the King’ and the rest were given the ‘Mental Barrier’.

“Next is wooden string.”

Maybe he too?

“I-I also got the status of an emperor.”

Next are the idiots.

“I also get the king’s hard kick!”

“Same thing. I got it.”

I couldn’t believe it, but everyone got the status of a king.

It took about 10 hours and I was completely covered in blood, turning into some kind of green monster.

My whole body was wet and sticky.

The stench was also very bad, but at this point, I felt a little uncomfortable, so I wanted to wash it quickly.

Jinsol Cha said.

“Brother, can I really not get that?”

“I don’t like you.”

Super regeneration and superhuman conflict with other characteristics.

I added it for no reason, but it doesn’t work either.

“… … still.”

“When traits collide, it’s worse than not having them. Trust me.”

It was good that I didn’t turn on the broadcast.

If I turned on the broadcast, I would have had to talk about giving probability.

“… … Okay.”

Cha Jin-sol seemed a bit difficult to understand, but he still listened to me.

In time, you will thank me.

[You have partially cleared the Petronas Twin Towers dungeon.]

In order to completely clear it, you must clear the upper floors as well.

However, compared to the effort, the gains were very small, so I had no intention of proceeding.

[Your level has risen.]

[You have reached level 40.]

‘Five?’

It was so low level that I didn’t pay much attention to the level itself.

However, when I reached level 40, I felt new.

‘One job skill will be opened.’

I have a job that is not known to the world as an ‘all-around streamer’.

Originally, general preemptive awakening streamers get a skill called ‘ultra-high-speed shooting’ at level 40.

As the name suggests, it was the ability to shoot a scene at high speed, and it was a skill that streamers must learn.

[The opening of job skills begins.]

something similar will come out

I didn’t have high expectations, but I was a little excited because it felt like a lottery when I was young.

[Job skills are unlocked.]

‘What is this?’

Something really similar came out.
