Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell Chapter 141

# 141

Grumble!

As soon as Melcanon’s brain, which was as hard as a stone, was grabbed, a loud roar rang out.

Not only that, sharp cracks appeared on all sides of the wide cavity.

“Sniff…what is it all of a sudden?!”

Alia, who was wailing at the great sage’s tragedy, was shocked and shouted.

Meanwhile, Daesung suddenly had a hunch.

Not only the 50th floor here, but the tower itself is collapsing.

[A serious problem has occurred in the core of the tower on the 50th floor.]

[Great Sage Melcanon, who plays the role of the core, has stopped living.] [

All ongoing difficulties and reward systems have disappeared.]

[Core The ‘Tower of Germination’, which has lost its power, collapses.]

[All magical energy is sealed due to the collapse of the virtual dimension.]

Daeseong, who checked the system text, suddenly frowned grimly.

It felt as if a lump of lead had sat inside my body, and my gravity increased and I had a fierce headache.

The field, which was in the form of a cavity, was covered with noise, like a screen with radio waves cut off.

It’s not the end.

[‘Balark’s Armor’ is dematerialized due to the seal of magic power.] [

To remove the seal of magic power, escape from the collapsing tower.]

The jet-black armor that surrounded his large body disappeared everywhere.

Daesung, who was wearing only leather pants, clicked his tongue harshly.

Since walking is difficult, the option to fly using the armor’s special skill, < Flight >, is completely blocked.

He was constantly sweating and concentrating so as not to lose his mind.

It felt like if I relaxed even for a moment, I would crumble into dust.

‘If it continues to stay here, it will disappear.’

The essential identity of this tower is Orb. In other words, it is a gate in the shape of a tower.

What ended up happening to the hunter who couldn’t get out of the gate when the boss monster died and was closed?

Unfortunately, no one knows that.

Is it like asking someone who has already died what it was like after death?

But Daesung seemed to know the answer to that question.

Extinction.

It’s different from death.

It is a very different realm from simple death, where life activity ceases and one enters the afterlife.

At this time, Alia was vomiting and convulsing as if she had a fever.

“Oh man…”

“Take this in with you.”

Daesung threw Melcanon’s brain at Alia and opened a subspace.

Normally, she would have reacted in horror, but Alia, who didn’t even have time to do so, calmly accepted the brain and entered subspace in a huff.

Daesung lifted his wet eyelids and looked around.

There was no entrance or exit visible around the area, which looked like a computer monitor with broken pixels.

‘There is no way I can be frustrated here.’

Even at the moment when his soul was being torn apart into pieces, Daesung gritted his teeth.

His appearance was eerie, like a haze in the middle of the desert.

‘It doesn’t make sense that there isn’t a single hole to escape.’

Since there was a way in, there must also be a way out.

I still have a lot of work to do.

There are many precious people who need to be protected.

So I will hold on somehow.

His poisonous tenacity kept him from falling.

Thanks to this, Daesung was soon able to discover a small ‘gap’.

‘That’s it.’

firewall!

In the midst of the mind-numbing abyss of chaos, there was a gap through which light seeped through.

It’s just big enough for one adult to barely squeeze through.

It was similar to the shape of the firewall that I vaguely saw when I entered this place.

but.

Coogung-! Coogung-!

Even though it was a gap, it was not completely clear.

Like a broken retractable iron door, the gap opened and closed rapidly.

The barrage of countless blades filled the gap and then retreated again.

‘Approximately five times every two seconds.’

It is an extremely easy situation to understand as all you have to do is get out of the way before the blade completely fills that narrow gap.

If Daesung’s body was still intact, he would have done something.

But not now. My limbs were weighed down by gravity, my mind became muddy, and my soul was being erased by the minute.

So to speak, it’s a tightrope walk.

It’s difficult to take a single step while maintaining your body’s balance, but trying to time the exit that opens and closes five times every two seconds to get out?

This is not something a sane person would do.

However, Daesung did not act harshly. Even so, I had no intention of overcoming the fateful ordeal with tenacity if I made just one mistake.

‘Time stone of delay.’

Daesung killed Unit 3 and took out the time stone he obtained as a reward.

A stone that slows down the flow of time.

This will definitely be the key to getting through the crisis.

It was a time when Daeseong, who was increasingly facing his limitations, was in a hurry to use the stone.

[The collapse of the tower accelerates.]

[The virtual fields implemented on each floor are randomly mixed.]

Pot-.

The loud roar stopped.

As if for some time, everything became quiet, as if we had entered outer space.

Daesung, dazed as if he had woken up from a nightmare, closed his eyes and then opened them.

“Damn it.”

And then a heartfelt curse came out of his mouth.

It got further away.

The gap was clearly within 100m.

Now it was so far away that I could only see it if I narrowed my eyes and looked closely.

Would this be similar to the feeling of a shipwrecked person who thought it was an oasis but then realized it was a mirage?

‘….’

Daesung swept his face with his hand as he felt helpless and frustrated.

My insides were turned upside down, nausea was rising, my muscles were screaming, but I didn’t care.

In my time of despair, I decided to see more and think more.

He took his hand away from his face and looked straight ahead.

Something lumpy was floating in the pitch black space.

Could that be the mixed virtual field the system was talking about?

When I looked down, I saw that I was also standing on one of the lumps.

All of the lumps were covered with blue armor, and the texture was quite familiar to the eye.

‘It’s Orihalcon.’

Because the magical power is sealed, it is impossible to spread your wings using < Flight > and fly to the exit in the distance.

Just in case, I sneaked my feet towards the outskirts of the lump.

There was no feeling of anything touching the soles of my feet. The darkness outside the mass can be thought of as just empty space.

‘I have no choice but to use those lumps as a stepping stone to the exit.’

That was the only way.

But how do you step on the blocks that are far apart from each other one by one and reach the exit…

by taking a leap?

It’s impossible.

It is difficult to even take a single step, but it is a very reckless adventure to jump to the lumps that are more than 50 meters apart.

I wonder if there is a hook that can reach where the lump is.

‘hook?’

As the accident reached that point, Daesung’s gaze shifted to his right hand.

bracelet.

The ‘King of All Diseases’, obtained by killing the 100-story giant dragon, caught his eye.

‘They said I could transform into any weapon I wanted.’

A hook would also easily fall into the category of weapons.

When I realized that I wanted a ‘hook with a chain’, the bracelet quickly mutated.

Soon, a black chain hook with the end curved in the shape of an ‘ㄱ’ appeared in his hand.

‘It is a weapon made by grinding up nearly 100,000 orihalcon. ‘You could probably dig through the armor covering that lump.’

On the outside of that round lump of orihalcon residue, there was no jaw that could be hooked.

That’s why you have to force it through.

Ttuduk!

Daesung couldn’t overcome the heavy gravity and forced his shoulder blades, which had been crushed, into shape.

Hung-. Hung-. Swish!

After twirling the black chain a few times, he threw the hook.

It was unclear whether the hook would actually reach the lump in the distance…

Kwajik-!

‘As expected, the 100th floor rewards are different.’

Fortunately, the chain was long enough to easily cover the 50m distance difference, and the hook was destructive enough to easily pierce the orihalcon armor.

Moreover, the chain still had some excess left and was bent loosely.

Daesung pulled his shoulders back to make the loose chain taut and straight, and then put some strength into his arms.

This is to ensure that the hook is firmly embedded so that it will never fall off under any circumstances.

And now that I checked, it seemed like there was no problem at all.

‘Goes.’

Insert the iron rope into each lump and fly forward to the exit.

Like Spider-Man. Daesung doesn’t have any memories of watching it, but

‘and he uses the time stone as he gets closer to the exit.’

The maximum radius of the time stone’s power is only 10m.

And no matter how close the lump is to the exit, it is farther away than 10m.

In other words, you have to use the time stone while ‘throwing your body’ towards the exit from the last chunk.

If the timing is not even a little bit right, your body will be torn apart and you will die.

This is crazy.

‘But there’s no way to reach the exit without doing something crazy.’

Daesung stood in front of a cliff of lumps. I strengthened the hand holding the chain.

Why are you hesitating?

I’ve already climbed up from the bottom of hell once.

So this is not an ordeal that will frustrate him.

widely-.

Daesung jumped to his feet.

***

“Krrrr-.”

Deep inside the crater of Mt. Fuji.

The annihilation dragon was flapping its wings and watching the fire giant.

Specifically, he glared at the broken jewel embedded in the giant’s chest.

His great master has just entered that jewel.

However, although some time had passed since then, the owner showed no signs of appearing.

“Krrrr-.”

Perhaps due to impatience, the annihilation dragon continued to moan from earlier.

I felt so angry that I wanted to go into that jewel, but I couldn’t do it the way I wanted.

-….

Meanwhile.

Magnus followed his master’s orders and held on to the fire giant with all his might.

“Kaaaaaaak-!”

The fire giant fainted and woke up repeatedly, screaming and twisting its body.

Magnus must be going through a lot of hard work as he is forced to hold on to a guy like that.

“Krrrr-!”

As the fire giant began to rampage, even the annihilator dragon showed signs of anxiety.

It made him anxious to think that his master was inside.

-What are you worried about Dragon? Don’t be impatient and wait calmly.

Magnus spoke to the annihilator dragon.

Although it is an ego that only its owner can hear, the annihilation dragon and Magnus are beings bound to the same magic circuit.

Therefore, even the annihilator dragon could clearly hear Magnus’ voice.

-Or are you just worried that this might become your master’s tomb?

“Krrr….”

-If you don’t think so, it’s best to just stop wasting your mental energy and wait.

But in fact, Magnus, who said this, was equally anxious.

That’s because the jewel, which was once glowing brightly, suddenly lost its shine.

However, Daesung does not even show his nose.

It’s not that I doubt my lord’s skills, but I couldn’t easily shake off thoughts like ‘what if’ or ‘what if’.

At that time, even Magnus was groaning without realizing it.

Jang-!

The jewel orb in the giant’s chest exploded, scattering fragments.

“…!”

Daesung’s new model jumped out among the flying debris.

Directly below is hot magma.

“Krrr-!”

The annihilating dragon used its quick wits and caught Daeseong in its mouth to prevent him from falling.

Daesung’s entire body was dripping with cold sweat like rain. There were quite a few dislocated parts.

“I almost died.”

But a thrilling sense of accomplishment enveloped my entire body. Daesung grinned uncharacteristically at the thrill he had felt for the first time in a long time.

There is no precedent for a hunter caught in a closed gate returning to reality.

However, now Daesung has become the first case.

-You came back safely.

Magnus quietly breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing his master’s safe return.

When the orb was completely shattered, the fire giant also passed away without a word. It seems that the orb was acting as another heart of the thing.

The moment Daeseong sighed and flopped down onto the annihilating dragon’s tongue.

Hwareuk-.

The system text appeared before my eyes.

[You survived the collapse of the tower. The virtual space-time that was imprisoned in the tower stands in the body of the Absolute.]

[You have additionally acquired the ‘Time Stone of Delay (x3).’]

[You have additionally acquired 50,000 Orihalcon.]

The Delay of Delay Time seat!

Even so, I was feeling uncomfortable because I had already used up the time stone, which can only be used five times, once.

However, by obtaining three additional time stones, the ability can be used an additional 15 times.

Plus, there’s so much orihalcon that it seems like it’s too much.

It was very satisfying, but surprisingly, the rewards did not end there.

[The technology of the Gishin tribe that was used to build the tower has been passed down.]

[You have acquired the ‘Tower Blueprint.’]

[You have acquired the ‘Warp Gate Blueprint.’]

[You have acquired the True Dragon Spray Blueprint.]

[’ You have acquired the ‘Spring Blueprint’.]

[No separate knowledge is required to interpret or use the blueprint. When you combine the orihalcon required for production with the blueprint, the corresponding result is created.]

Things you didn’t expect came into your hands.

Top Warp Gate Dragon Spray Spring. All four caught Daesung’s attention.

especially.

‘If it’s a tower blueprint, does that mean I can build the tower myself?’

no. Since the name is tower blueprint, it must have that meaning.

but.

Building a tower…

It was difficult for Daesung to gauge the scale contained in this short sentence.

It would be a good idea to jump to conclusions until you try it yourself.

The same goes for warp gates and springs.

Lastly, dragon spray.

‘The need to add ‘true’ in front of it may mean that it is on a different level from the dragon spray that is the reward on the 99th floor.’

So does this mean that the dragon spray on the 99th floor is some kind of lower-level model?

Even if that were the case, it was so powerful that Unit 3, which had joked that it was fine even when covered in lava, would cower in shame.

If that’s the case for low-level models, doesn’t it mean that a dragon sprayer with ‘true’ in front of it is much more powerful than that?

‘The day will surely come when we will face off against the dragon race.’

Dragons have a stronger desire to conquer and rule than any other race, and they are a vicious race.

There is no way the greedy dragons would just leave Earth’s lands and seas alone.

In fact, wasn’t the Red Dragon the first person Daeseong had to deal with as soon as the second cataclysm occurred?

Dragon spray. A gun that kills a dragon.

This will definitely be of great help on the day of war with the dragon clan.

‘There’s a lot I want to find out more about, but I don’t have time right now.’

I decided to stop reflecting on compensation here.

Whatever was in hand now was not as important as Great Sage Melcanon.

“Let’s go out.”

“Krrrr-!”

The annihilating dragon came out of the crater.

***

“I heard from this guy that if you have a good brain, you can save Melcanon on your own.”

“iced coffee! Great Sage…!”

Afterwards, Daeseong returned to Yugye where the Hekar tribe was located.

He then immediately opened subspace and handed Melcanon’s brain to them.

Just like Alia, they also cried loudly.

Daesung said to old man Hekar, who was sobbing as he held the brain tightly in his arms.

“Can it be revived?”

“Fortunately, there are no major scratches on the brain, so resuscitation work, including body restoration, is not impossible. “It may take a while, but… about half a day.”

“It doesn’t matter if it takes half a day. Still, hurry as much as possible.”

“But how can I express my gratitude to you for this…”

“That’s enough, just hurry up.”

Because they weren’t the kind of people who really wanted to receive a thank you note.

Moreover, if the resurrected Melcanon does not know how to reach the source, he plans to vent his anger in a big way, as I warned him before.

The old man carefully covered Melcanon’s brain with a blanket and then headed off somewhere, accompanied by several other Hekar tribesmen.

They must be going for resuscitation work.

They said it would take about half a day, so Daesung patiently waited.

‘Let’s take a look around here to kill some time.’

I have just passed a difficult time and am back.

At the moment, he was walking around the world four times with the intention of allowing himself this much rest.

Pot-!

In Yugye, which was a world of night, dawn with a beautiful sunset appeared.

Wow-!!

As dawn colors the sky, fierce shouts echo from beyond.

‘It looks like he was resurrected.’

He had a hunch.

Great Sage Melcanon has survived.
