Shincon’s One Coin Clear

Episode 98. Banquet hall (8)

Yoon Taeyang knelt while holding onto his chest.

As he watched the scene, the dragon king, Balak, wrinkled his forehead.

The nutrients in Taeyang Yoon and the nutrients in the heart of the fallen player were being mixed according to Balak’s design.

In the heart of Taeyang Yoon.

“Damn it.”

Originally, nutrients did not fully bloom in the human body.

It was because it was a nutritional supplement that Balak had customized for the dragon.

Of course, the weak human body received a strengthening effect only with the medicinal effect flowing from the nutritional supplement.

However, its efficacy is about half of the original medicinal effect.

That was all Balak allowed.

However, Untara’s dragon heart turned Yun Taeyang’s body into a dragon, and the dragon’s body was fully accepting the medicinal effects of the nutrient.

“Not another human, but the dragon slayer.”

The dragon king’s lofty pride is unacceptable.

Kwadeudeuk.

The overwhelming mass of mana distorted the space around Balak’s body.

‘Should I kill him?’

Then a man appeared in front of Balak.

The figure of an angel holding a flaming sword.

And a crow’s head that doesn’t suit him.

It was Andras, the 63rd rank demon king.

“What a stupid move. Are you thinking of letting go of the authority of Lord Balak?”

Balak’s expression contorted at the sudden appearance of Andras.

“It doesn’t matter if no one has seen it, but I did. The guilt will become more severe.”

“Are you going to enmity with Balak right now?”

cooong.

Balak’s voice became the law, and Andras was constricted.

It was the language of the dragon.

“If you don’t intend to enter the Demon Realm, that’s fine too. If you intend to spend the rest of your life in a dimensional labyrinth, doing a chore.”

Andras laughed.

surely.

Balak, the dragon king, was one of the few demon kings worth fighting for even at the cost of his own life.

“You are still the same even in the face of eons of time.”

“Time does not weaken the dragon. That’s what being noble is. Andras. You may not understand.”

A small scorn shone in Balak’s eyes.

Andras nodded his head nonchalantly.

“I’m sorry, but there’s no use in threatening me. Exchange the authority of the floor with one player? It will be your loss.”

Other demon kings enjoy it as a game, but Balak was different.

Balak was a demon king who functionally utilized the dimensional labyrinth.

“You guys.”

cringe

Balak glared at Andras.

However, contrary to Balak’s attitude, the pressure of the spirit of words that had been tightening Andras had subsided.

“Good idea.”

Andras smiles.

Balak fired nervously.

“Ha, this time I was able to live with your intervention, but there are two more floors left. Do you think I can’t kill you?”

“I have no complaints as long as I kill them through legal means. On the contrary, they are more welcoming.”

The crow’s eyes flashed.

Dantalian’s voice passed in his ears.

“Since it has been smelted enough, shouldn’t we check to see if it sharpens well?”

***

“Cool.”

The sun soon rose from its seat.

Hyeon-hye asked in a worried voice.

-are you okay?

“Uh maybe?”

The sun answered and contemplated the heart.

dragon heart.

At the center of the problem was clearly the Dragon Heart.

“I was just surprised for a second.”

The dragon heart’s mana and the mana originally used by the sun moved without problems.

As if nothing had happened in the first place.

There was a difference.

Nutrients dwelling in the player have been transferred to the heart of the sun.

‘What kind of variable will this be?’

There weren’t many players who hunted dragons from the Banquet Stage or Balrog’s Floor and got the Dragon Heart achievement, but there were quite a few.

However, no player entered with a dragon heart before reaching the Balrog floor.

At least among users.

In other words, this was an area that even Hyun-hye could not give advice on.

‘Perhaps a hidden condition has been achieved.’

There are enough such examples.

Getting the V-Heroin Production Diagram in the Bounty Stage also required knowing the keyword V-Heroin.

The katana, which ate the blood obtained from the swordsman’s castle, was also an item that could only be obtained by fulfilling hidden conditions.

Balak’s nutritional system is the reward offered by the game.

There was a good chance that it would be one of those cases that are reinforced through hidden conditions.

anyway.

“How much time has passed?”

“Move right away. I took enough rest.”

Taeyang nodded at Goyoung’s words.

It seemed that the Mirva Clan members had collapsed enough to recover to some extent.

Ran approached the sun.

“are you okay?”

“You talked about it. How does it look to you?”

“Does it look good from the outside? I was thinking about it while you were down, by the way.”

Ran continued with a serious expression.

“I think this may not be a coincidence.”

“what?”

“The dragons attacked the base.”

Salomon, who was listening next to him, asked.

“Are you saying it was a trap? You lured a demonic dragon with a player filled with nutrients and scattered it in front of us?”

“I got it right away. I’m not sure, but it’s possible.”

At Ran’s words, Taeyang nodded.

Bigger than possible.

The reason why Hyeon-hye told me not to kill Mirva Clan players recklessly.

It was because any competent player could do this kind of check.

“Of course, this is assuming that this is not a coincidence.”

“It’s okay to assume the worst. lan. Go on. What is the basis?”

“I searched once during the battle. To see if there are any more enemies lurking around.”

“Are there any guys caught there?”

Ran nodded her head.

“Yeah, the number is about eight to ten.”

The sun tilted its head.

“Eight to ten. There were guys hiding and watching us.”

-If this is what the player intended, there are only two places you can do it.

“yes. Steel Wolf Mercenary. and the Mariana-Avalon coalition.”

The Mirva Clan could also be placed on the line of suspects, but their movements were entirely within the control of Ran and Salomon.

Salomon tilted his head.

“Is there any possibility that an individual player did it?”

“I don’t think so. The volume of cases is too loud.”

– I agree.

They subdued the players with nutrients and identified the location of the sun’s party, while at the same time luring dragons and releasing them at the base in advance.

It was a lot of work, and it was something that could only be done if high-level players were included.

Salomon asked.

“Any other possibilities? Couldn’t it just be the two groups? Whether there are strong regular players we don’t know about. Or maybe it’s not the will of the entire Iron Wolf, but one party or two united.”

A case like Yoo-seok.

The sun nodded.

“Things like that happen, too. Although the chances are small.”

-… … Do you have a quote?

Hyeon-hye muttered in a small voice as if hesitating.

the sun asked

“Are you estimating?”

-huh. Estimate whether to kill or not, and if it’s dangerous, design it and kill it.

It was one of the patterns that appear when high-ranking users grow threateningly.

The NPCs keep the overgrown users in check according to their interests.

It wasn’t just a raid, it was a method of systematically killing players by acquiring information and formulating a plan across multiple floors.

There were many cases where the victim could not fight properly and ended in vain.

-It’s the first time something like this has appeared since the 15th floor.

“Looking at it, I think it’s right.”

Considering the pace rating of Taeyang’s achievements, it wasn’t strange that this kind of thing started appearing on the 15th floor.

Taeyang, who had repeated his thoughts, suddenly became hot.

“So you’re saying that the Iron Wolf already planned to kill me?”

-calm down. You still don’t know if it’s the Iron Wolf or the Mariana-Avalon. And it’s not designed with the intention of killing the Iron Wolf, even if it did.

“uh?”

-The Steel Wolf Mercenary Corps has an internal code of conduct.

“A code of conduct? How do you know that?”

-Are there any users who entered the Steel Wolf for that long period of time?

“ah.”

The sun awkwardly stroked the back of his head.

-Anyway, what we have to do has been decided.

“huh?”

-I need to catch someone. and.

Hyun-hye licked my lips.

-I have to punish you.

***

Doherty, who was observing the sun group, muttered with a puzzled face.

“Did you split up with Mirva and Taeyang?”

“okay? Hmm, good luck.”

Azur nodded.

It was said that it was luck, but it was a situation that was intended to some extent.

Since Mirva Clan was next to the sun, it was likely that they were attacked.

Of course, smart people still know that sticking by the sun is an advantage, but when a few stupid people mess things up, it’s bound to get out of control.

On the other hand, from the sun’s point of view.

There are only three organizations that can do the work of the jaggeum.

Mirva Steel Wolf and the Mariana-Avalon Alliance.

If there are people who oppose the Mirva Clan, who are on the suspect line, they will inevitably get hurt.

Doherty licked his lips with regret.

“I want to know more about what happened. I wish I had Rossi.”

Search-type abilities are always disappointing.

Unlike Doherty Azur, who had all his abilities concentrated in battle, Rossi was a player who could play multiple tactical roles, such as search and combat assistance.

However, she was absent to check the movement of the Mirva Clan.

Doherty continued as he observed Taeyang’s group.

“The other side is also great in powerless skills, but it seems to be weak in the search part.”

“There are two magic players? Isn’t that also A B+ grade?”

Doherty shrugged at Azur’s words.

“Otherwise, that move makes no sense. I don’t think I have very poor search skills, but I feel like I’m not particularly good at it. Is it surprisingly common? that type. so are you oh look that.”

Taeyang, who had been moving separately, was entering the base where Doherty had dug a trap.

I twisted the lines to say I was paying attention, but I was caught in a trap.

Azur tilted his head.

“Really?”

Doherty ordered the players in Group 1.

“Go and call the team 2 players. Let’s pour it all at once.”

“yes!”

Azur sighed as he saw Doherty grumbling.

“It would have been better for you to keep an eye on Mirva and move with Rossi.”

“You say that again. Because I have a higher rating?”

“under. Was it Yusei that the demons looked at favorably? You can’t even say a word properly in front of Rossi.”

It was then.

Doherty’s eyes widened as he observed Taeyang.

“uh?”

“Huh? What? Did I hit you right in the middle?”

“Where did you go?”

“what?”

Azur reacted belatedly to Doherty’s unusual reaction.

Smoke Magic: Dust Gate.

Huung.

A portal made of smoke appeared in front of them.

“Whoa.”

Soon, a cynical wizard with a cigar walked out of the dimensional door.

“I think about it many times. You and I are really good.”

“It’s more difficult to find someone who doesn’t suit me, rather than a match for you. Can you please not be mistaken?”

Ran’s wind and Salomon’s smoke spread simultaneously.

stormy wind.

Blind Area.

Azur and Doherty flung themselves away from Ran’s windstorm with agile movements.

Salomon’s smoke engulfed the natural gap.

Gooseoknansin (怪力亂神) – Bladed wind.

space ignition.

Trembling Blue Wolf.

bang! bang! bang! bang!

oh oh oh oh oh!

Azur and Salomon’s response knocked out all the blades.

Atman’s storm.

Whoaaaaaang!

Doherty shouted after clearing Salomon’s fog using the skill.

“I’ll tie you up!”

The Red Eagle of Deterioration.

Ran murmured in admiration.

“You’re not an S-rank Clan member for nothing.”

“surely.”

The Mirva Clan members weren’t bad either, but it definitely felt like they were one step above.

Goreeknansin (怪力亂神) – goblin wind.

Smoke Magic – Hexagonal magic square.

Woo woo woo!

The bodies of Ran and Salomon floated into the air.

Wow!

Doherty’s red eagle exploded on the poor ground.

Based on the spell that Azur revealed, he instantly figured out Salomon and Ran’s intentions.

“I’m thinking of tying it up! It’s not a space, it’s a seal! They don’t have the confidence to catch us! I’ll calculate it backwards!”

A battle is, after all, a battle of numbers.

You win by destroying all enemies.

‘Is it easier than I thought?’

Azur, who reversed Salomon’s magic formula in real time, smiled.

Beside him, Doherty was preparing to jump.

‘I don’t know where Yoon Taeyang went, but if he’s not here, there’s no variable… … .’

at that time.

Freeze Mana.

Quadruped!

The entire mana of space froze.

Azur was shocked.

“Mana freeze?”

A number she could never have imagined.

Azur’s reverse calculation magic and Doherty’s skill lost their light at the same time.

Soon, Salomon’s smoke barrier swallowed the frozen space entirely.
