Chapter 109

Level 2 Player

Basilisk (2)

Actually, even so, there would have been no problem until now.

‘Ordinary players would not have had the matter of meeting this guy itself.’

It is a monster that appears only if achieving the special condition of massacring the monsters of Floor 199 within a week. So it would be strong to this degree.

‘Although it is strong, it is only that.’

Even if the Basilisk has high durability stats and is hard no matter how much, one cannot win by only defending. The Basilisk diligently bit the body of the Bone Dragon and emitted petrification gas toward Jin-su.

However, the physical hits only made large and small wounds on the body of the Bone Dragon and were not fatal. Although the petrification gas is threatening, it can be nullified with Shin Su-a’s purify skill.

‘I also possess the purify skill.’

Although the shadow healer is dark type so there was no purify skill, even if only Jin-su and Shin Su-a use the purify skill, fatal attacks could be sufficiently blocked.

‘Also, if a summon with large damage, it is fine if just reverse-summoning it.’

If it was a force composed entirely of players, it was a choice that absolutely could not be made. However, in a state where all the force except Jin-su and Shin Su-a is composed of summons, it was rather a rational choice.

Even so, the reason Jin-su was surprised was because the Basilisk was too excessively hard compared to the level of Floor 199.

‘It will become a good tanker.’

The petrification breath and petrification gas will also be able to become fatal weapons to other monsters or players.

‘I seem to obtain a far better guy than the sand worm.’

He thought the sand worm was the best among the achievements that can be obtained on Floor 199, but he did not know it would be hiding such a treasure.

However, to fully occupy this treasure, there was a necessity to catch it as quickly as possible. Jin-su poured mana without sparing and strengthened the aura.

Crack! Slash! Thud!

“Kiiiik!”

At Jin-su’s successive attacks, the Basilisk that was struggling emitted even thicker petrification gas.

“Purify! Purify! Purify!”

However, at the continuous purify skill of Shin Su-a, the petrified parts returned to the original appearance in an instant.

‘It is almost ending.’

The neck of the Basilisk became ragged. The wound of the back hide bitten by the Bone Dragon was also gradually widening, and the lower belly hide of the Basilisk was right before being completely torn off by the sand worm.

At that time, the Basilisk’s mana quickly gathered around the mouth.

‘Is it the final struggle?’

It seemed it was trying to use the petrification breath, the strongest weapon. However, no matter how powerful a weapon, it is useless if not hitting.

Jin-su was positioned behind the neck of the Basilisk. The Bone Dragons and sand worms were also in the direction where the back and belly of the Basilisk are, and the other summons were also concentrating attacks on the legs and body of the Basilisk.

Even if opening the mouth and shooting the petrification breath, it was a state where no one can be hit.

‘Huh?’

At that moment, the mana gathering at the mouth of the Basilisk showed an excessive flow and a runaway phenomenon.

‘This bastard is trying to deliberately do mana runaway.’

It was a type of self-destruction.

Tak!

At the moment Jin-su threw his body.

Kwaaaaang!

Along with a large explosive sound, the mouth area of the Basilisk exploded, and the mana containing the petrification curse spread in all directions.

“Jin-su!”

Shin Su-a who was devoted to support from the rear was startled and ran out.

“I am fine. It is dangerous here, so do not come.”

Jin-su’s voice was heard in such Shin Su-a’s ears.

“Are you really fine?”

“Yeah.”

Jin-su answered calmly. Actually, he was also fine. However, the fact that he was momentarily surprised was true. Because the explosion of the mana containing the petrification curse was quite powerful.

‘Troublesome.’

Even though casting the tanker’s protection skill and the healer’s protection skill, the armor of Jin-su’s lower body and part of both hands was in a state of having changed into stone.

‘Purify.’

Jin-su used the purify skill and released the petrification.

‘Quite a lot of summons annihilated.’

The Bone Dragons and sand worms only received slight damage. However, the other summons received not a little damage to the degree where there were quite a few reverse-summoned individuals.

‘Since I was thinking of resting deeply for a day once arriving at Floor 200.’

The disadvantage that auto-hunting temporarily stops until the forcibly reverse-summoned summons can be re-summoned again was quite painful, but since it is about half a day at most, it was not a great loss.

‘The Dragon Tooth Soldiers were also blocked with the bodies of other summons.’

Thanks to that, the White Drake’s teeth and Bone Dragon’s teeth were all safe.

When Jin-su finished checking the damage situation, system messages poured down like a flood.

[You have achieved for the first time the hard-to-believe achievement of clearing Floor 199 not by survival but by subjugation.]

[You have achieved for the first time the hard-to-believe achievement of hunting the lord of the desert, Basilisk, for the first time on Floor 199.]

[Calculating contribution.]

[You have achieved 1st place in contribution with 99%.]

[You have achieved the achievement of achieving 0% survival rate of the monsters existing on Floor 199.]

[The title The One Who Eradicated All the Monsters of Floor 199 is given.]

[The title The Disaster of Floor 199 is given.]

[The skill book Petrification Breath is given.]

[The skill book Sandstorm is given.]

...omitted...

‘Although there are many.’

Except for a few skill books, there were no particularly nutritious rewards.

‘It is not even an impossible feat.’

If it is about the Basilisk, it is enough to acknowledge as out-of-spec and give one impossible feat, but the reward was really stingy.

‘Well, the biggest reward is this guy though. Army Summon. Army Summon.’

Jin-su used the Army Summon skill and reborn the soul of the dead Basilisk as a summon.

Creak!

A black and white pair of Basilisks revealed their appearances in front of Jin-su and bowed their heads.

‘But clearly the system message that Floor 199 was cleared floated, but there is no change.’

Although cleared by subjugation not survival by hunting all the monsters of the mission place, anyway, clear is clear.

‘It seems the survival mission does not send up in advance even if caught early.’

Then there was no choice but to just wait.

‘Let’s recover mana and health at least.’

Although nothing special will happen just because going up to Floor 200, since it is unknown, it was better to be thorough. On top of that, if spending time like this, the mana consumed by the summons is also automatically recovered, and the re-summon cooldown of the forcibly reverse-summoned summons also decreases.

Jin-su and Shin Su-a took a comfortable rest. Around the time the consumed mana and health were completely recovered, a system message floated.

[You have survived for a week. You have cleared Floor 199. You will move to Floor 200 after 99 seconds.]

“Now we are going up.”

“Yeah, I hope Floor 200 is the end. Somehow, it seems it will not be.”

Shin Su-a said with a bitter expression at Jin-su’s words.

‘Right. It is not the end.’

Floor 200 was still only the lower layer of the Tower.

‘Well, it is only my standard to the end.’

Lower layer, mid layer, upper layer were only personal classifications made based on Floor 2,222 that Jin-su climbed before regression.

‘From Floor 200, there are many unfamiliar things.’

Earthlings including Jin-su have competed only with players who came from the same dimension until now. However, from Floor 200, it was different.

They had to compete with each other in one space with players who came from other dimensions.

Hwaaaaak!

At the moment of reaching the scheduled time, a pure white light cluster wrapped the bodies of Jin-su and Shin Su-a.

***

[You have arrived at Floor 200.]

[Defeat the gatekeeper and go up to Floor 201.]

[Time that can be stayed on Floor 200 - 10 years.]

[You have achieved the achievement of climbing to Floor 200 in the shortest period in history.]

[The title The One Who Climbed to Floor 200 in the Shortest Period is given.]

[The Blessing of Hwangsin has grown.]

[The Blessing of Hongsin has grown.]

As soon as arriving at Floor 200, system messages greeted Jin-su.

‘Achievements were also acquired, and the Blessing also grew.’

Probably the growth of the Blessing was more greatly influenced by the point of climbing to Floor 200 than the shortest period achievement.

‘The real is from now on.’

Until climbing to Floor 300, 2 is entered in all floors. From Jin-su’s perspective, it was the same as receiving a special bonus just by reaching each floor.

“It is a newbie.”

“Where is the origin?”

“Looking at the appearance, it seems Earth or Musung origin?”

“Are that cat and crow summons?”

This time as well, the players who came up to Floor 200 first before were surrounding the vacant lot.

“Why is the hair color of those people like that?”

Shin Su-a said with a surprised expression while looking at some of those surrounding her surroundings.

The majority had no great difference from Earthlings. However, some had hair colors hard to have naturally like red, orange, yellow, green, blue, or pink.

“That person has enormously long ears and is pretty. Huh, that person is enormously short and has a lot of beard. And that person has a tail attached.”

Shin Su-a was startled at the appearances of people with looks never seen in her life.

‘They are the guys of the Arius dimension.’

Arius was a dimension that can be said to be a fantasy world where aura and magic run rampant. It is a place where various subhumans including humans live, and Earth origins simply called them elves, dwarves, and beastmen.

‘There is also the Musung dimension.’

Musung is a dimension that can be said to be a martial world where martial artists who learned martial arts live. The race is only humans, and there was no difference in appearance from Orientals.

‘The humans of the Arius dimension and Musung dimension start from Floor 100.’

Compared to Earthlings with no abilities, Ariusians and Musungians possess the power of aura and magic, and martial arts and arts. On top of that, the basic physical ability was also far superior.

The moment of entering the Tower and awakening as a player, the aura, magic, martial arts, and arts they possessed change into high-level skills, and the excellent physical ability is converted into high stats.

‘Thanks to that, the growth speed is far faster compared to Earthlings.’

Unlike Earthlings who are randomly dragged with no abilities, the humans of Arius dimension and Musung dimension origin are only those who possess a strong body and special abilities.

‘Especially the growth speed of the guys who were strong in the original dimension is extraordinary.’

Those like grand sword masters and great mages, and martial artists of the transformation realm and great arts masters were in a state where the possessed force reached the limit of the origin dimension. That is why there was almost no method to become stronger anymore.

However, after awakening as a player, the circumstances changed.

If only catching monsters, one can increase stats through level up and raise skill levels, and break the limit as much as one wants and become stronger.

‘Well, although the case itself of strong guys coming to the Tower from the beginning is enormously rare.’

Strong persons of the level of grand sword masters and great mages, and martial artists of the transformation realm and great arts masters were rare to the degree of only single digits or double digits even throughout each dimension. That is why those dragged to the Tower and awakening as players had an overwhelmingly high ratio of those who were lower knights, lower mages, lower martial artists, or lower arts masters in the original dimension.

‘Floor 200 is the place where Earth origin players, Arius origin players, and Musung origin players meet for the first time. It also means that the system judged that Earth origin players have grown to the degree where they can compete with Arius origin or Musung origin players.’

However, if evaluating coldly, among the players of the three dimensions, the force of Earth origin players belonged to the lowest side.

‘Although more opportunities to grow power are given, most Earth origin players find it burdensome just to survive.’

To begin with, Arius and Musung origins that include even a minority of mid-upper knights, mages, martial artists, and arts masters from the beginning had no choice but to have a higher survival rate compared to Earth origins.

‘Although there occasionally exist irregulars of Earth origin like me.’

Such cases belonged to the very very rare side.
