< The God of War Returned to Level 2 Episode 429 >
The wall of the Golden Tower.
“eww… … eww… … .”
There, Gilgamesh, with a haggard face, was groaning with his eyes out of focus.
“Why is he doing this?”
“Ah, to plant it as a human world tree.”
Pythia answered Ashoka’s question with a smile.
“To the world tree?”
“huh. Don’t you know how I dealt with him in the past?”
The old times she is talking about are probably before the infinite recurrence.
Asoka shook her head.
“I was only in the seal, so I don’t know what happened to him.”
“Oh is that so? There were no outside activities. I didn’t know I’m not in a position to keep regressing like you.”
“For that matter, you seem to know the past well.”
“After knowing my past, Shinan’s performance has become stronger.”
Took. Took.
Pythia, knocking on her ima, touched the golden wall.
OK.
“Keo-eo-eok!”
Gilgamesh’s face contorted and he complained of pain.
sigh… … .
A golden fruit protruded from the wall.
“It is the fruit of the world tree. Since it’s an abbreviated form, its performance is weaker than the original one, but it will help heal wounds.”
“Thank you.”
Upon receiving the golden apple, Ashoka glanced at Gilgamesh, who was suffering from beside him.
“Thank you too.”
Then Ahsoka patted him on the head.
Gilgamesh, who was in pain, opened his eyes immediately after being treated like this.
“This guy… … Are you insulting me!? No matter how much I am like this now. I am your ancestor… … !”
“I just said thank you. Ancestor.”
“What are you talking about like that?”
pop!
Beside him, Pythia struck Gilgamesh on the head as if he was happy.
“You can just lose. He is.”
“profit… … .”
“You seem to have used a lot of violence. Seeing how quiet it is.”
“Hehe. what did you do in moderation These days are the happiest times of my life.”
“is it. For now, let’s eat this well.”
Wasak!
A wound on his chest that heals as soon as Ahsoka eats the golden apple.
As the energy of emptiness began to fade, Pythia stared at him.
“Asoka, why do you help your master?”
“Why do you suddenly ask such a thing between the same species?”
“just. I don’t understand why someone like you would do this. Didn’t you once have a body that almost became a saint of mankind? Why would such a noble person help in the massacre of mankind?”
Pythia smiled and looked at Ashoka with a calm, scrutinizing look.
“I have a goal.”
“What goal?”
“To erase the red fire inherent in mankind.”
“aha… … .”
“And this cannot be solved without a martial god.”
“It turns out you have the same goal as me?”
Pythia listened and nodded.
“Was this also your goal? Not revenge?”
“This is revenge. Locking me in a lab and turning me into a birthing machine… … Why would you? It was done to resurrect the Red Administrator by putting him in the human race. So I must hinder that goal from being accomplished.”
“Right… … Wasn’t the purpose to destroy mankind?”
“They are still my descendants. I can’t help but continue to perish in the infinite recurrence… … If the god of war fulfills his purpose, he will be saved in the end. I am just waiting for that time.”
Did Pythia have this meaning?
Asoka looked at her calmly with sunken eyes.
“Kuk. Do you believe in pear snakes? What an idiot… … ! Can’t you see my tail?”
Gilgamesh raised his face again and laughed at them.
“The contract with me was also fraudulent. Are you different? Why does he bother to get rid of the red fire engraved on mankind? Just burn it all up and you’ll be done!”
“You still have energy, don’t you? I hit less.”
“Kuk-kuk… … You’re stupid. To believe the snake’s promise… … You too will soon be like this. Waiting for you to come next to me… … !”
When Gilgamesh grins like that.
puck!
Before Pythia could raise a hand, Ashoka struck him hard on the head.
“Don’t worry. It’s because I’m more thorough about the contract than you are.”
“nice… … ugh… … !”
“Then I will go to recover.”
“huh. I’ll be planting a tree~”
Pythia sees off Gilgamesh with a smile, as if she liked Ashoka’s beating of Gilgamesh.
By the time he disappears like that.
‘… … what?’
Gilgamesh, who was chained to the tower, looked at Ashoka gnashing his teeth and felt his body become more free.
‘Did the bond break because that was right? But it wasn’t like that when Pythia hit me like that… … ?’
is this a coincidence
Or was it Ahsoka’s intention?
Gilgamesh didn’t know why he became more free.
“How is it to be beaten by someone other than me?”
“Shut up, old woman.”
“Anyway, I earn a bee.”
Fuck!
Just in case, when I was hit by the Pythia again, the bonds of my body were not broken at all.
I don’t think this is a coincidence, I think Ahsoka did it.
‘… … Ahsoka, what are you thinking?’
Gilgamesh wondered why Ashoka did this.
‘For now, let’s seize the tower again… … .’
Now that you’ve found some freedom, you can regain control of the Golden Tower.
There was a little hope in Gilgamesh’s eyes that had been so hazy.
* * *
Inside the Void Training Grounds.
“This is so… … How great?”
Sung Ji-han smiled with satisfaction as he looked at the phoenix flag in his hand.
‘I never thought I’d go up to EX.’
As Son said, he only wrote a hundred special moves, but his grade rose to the EX rank and even his name changed.
Of course, every time I use a special move, there are times when the enemy stats are consumed, so the enemy’s stats were 50.
Seong Ji-han was satisfied with upgrading his weapon by brushing off ability-level enemies who might control him.
He analyzed the weapon in earnest.
[Cumulus phoenix]
-Grade: EX
-Unjung phoenix, a window with red administrator’s letters engraved 100 times.
– When using a stat enemy through a window, the firepower is greatly amplified, and when using the special skill [Phoenix Embodiment], the power of the stat enemy increases by 50%.
– As an additional effect, if the user is a guild owner or guild master, all option levels of the guild they belong to are increased by +15.
‘The buff effect that increased the stats of allies by 35% has turned into a phoenix.’
All stats 35% buff, only enemy stats are raised by 50%.
Also, this effect was completely useless to allies, so this change could be called a downgrade.
‘In the first place, the 35% buff effect didn’t apply to me these days. This is more useful.’
Maybe it’s because his stats have improved so much compared to the days when he received buffs from allies by inserting a phoenix.
Seong Ji-han, unlike the beginning, was hardly enjoying the buff effect of the phoenix.
If the buff effect was still useful, the spear wouldn’t be hanging around in the inventory.
‘It’s unfortunate that allies’ buffs are gone, but the battles I’m going to carry out now are the ones I’ll have to overcome by myself.’
Even when fighting the winner of a tournament, you have to fight 1:1.
You can’t take people with you even when you’re fighting a god of war.
The only place where you could use allied buffs was the space league’s race competition.
However, in this case, once Seong Ji-han is able to participate, the game is over regardless of whether or not he gives a buff.
Actually, the Unjung Phoenix buff wasn’t that useful right now.
It’s better to raise enemies by 50% than this.
‘It’s a bonus that the guild option +8 has grown further.’
The guild option that made me give up on making the spear of annihilation, saying that the manager’s hand inflated the item grade.
This also changed the level of the spear to EX, and it went up 8 steps from +7 to +15.
This is not cool in its own way.
It won’t have much of an impact when fighting God of War, but leveling up will be a little faster.
‘But if this is EX, what grade does the window of annihilation show?’
Originally, I thought it would become an EX only when it was about the spear of annihilation.
It was too easy to say that the EX grade used a special move 100 times.
If this is the case, I have no idea what the next step is.
‘Well, anyway, it’s probably going to be EX, so I’ll have to use the spear often.’
Seong Ji-han thought so and left the training ground.
And come out of your room into the living room.
“Oh, Master! You are here!”
Lee Ha-yeon, who was in the living room, hurriedly ran to him.
“What the hell is this? I was shocked when I went up to level 4, but I got 4 more!”
“I upgraded some items.”
“… … Wasn’t it that easy to raise the guild option level +8?”
“I won’t go any further. The item has become an EX grade.”
“E EX?”
Lee Ha-yeon doubted her ears after hearing the grade mentioned by Seong Ji-han.
If it’s EX, it’s the final level among item grades.
How can this be made in one day after entering the training ground?
‘No matter how much the owner is… … No, it’s possible because it’s the owner.’
Lee Ha-yeon thought it was ridiculous, but soon gave up on that idea as the target was Seong Ji-han.
Seong Ji-han has produced results like this once or twice.
He’s just someone who plays other games, so you just have to faithfully support him.
“and… … Then our guild might really become number one in the world like this.”
“Isn’t it originally number 1 in the world?”
“Based on the overall evaluation, American First was still hard to beat, but thanks to the phoenix, I can aim for the first place!”
“No. 1… … .”
Will I be able to achieve that before fighting the god of war?
Seong Ji-han smiled and answered Lee Ha-yeon, whose eyes were shining.
“I wish I could. 1st.”
“It is! But, owner… … It’s the owner of this guild, but what if you talk too much about other people’s business?
”
“ah… … but. It’s a situation where the constellations are holding a tournament with the owner’s hand.”
Compared to the battle with the constellation, honestly, the standby guild issue is trivial.
Lee Ha-yeon quickly admitted the reason for the owner’s indifference.
“Then, I would like to ask you to take care of the added guild options.”
“yes. I’ll try to recruit more applicants for the standby guild. And I need to get more GP from existing subscribers.”
When Lee Ha-yeon was finishing the calculation like that.
=Ah, Yoon Se-jin! What an exquisite defense!
On the TV in the living room, a beginner’s arena was being played.
“Do you still have that?”
“Now, after this match, we will go into the finals. Everyone is looking forward to what racial bonuses will come out.”
A beginner’s arena that was suspected of being organized by the owner of the arena to promote humanity.
Perhaps it was because of the difficult conditions that humans were showing a considerable advantage in the fight between races that met these conditions.
“I wonder what they will give you as a racial bonus if you win.”
“There are rumors spreading among people that it’s not giving a fire property bonus again.”
“There are plenty of possibilities for that.”
The racial bonus Seong Ji-han received from the tournament victory reward was also fire affinity +1 and physical strength +3.
Thanks to the fire property bonus that was spread like crazy at some point in the arena, non-players were also aware that it was not being given.
‘If you give the fire attribute this time, it’s not given randomly. There must be an intention… … .’
I’ll have to see what kind of bonuses are given in the beginner’s arena this time.
Seong Ji-han thought so and said to Lee Ha-yeon.
“Hayeon-ssi, then I’ll level up and come back.”
“Ah, the Challenger game? yes. I’ll be waiting for you. Ten minutes is enough, right?”
“If matching is done quickly, 10 minutes is long.”
It’s something like Challenger League 8 in the yard fighting a level 8 constellation.
Seong Ji-han made a match on the spot.
Beep!
[The game has been matched.]
When the system message popped up, he waved to Lee Ha-yeon.
“Then let’s go.”
So in the challenger game that I entered.
“We have located your planet. Hands up.”
“Then the Sun King will spare you… … .”
“If you disobey, your planet will burn.”
“… … What are you guys doing?”
Seong Ji-han received constant threats.
