Mangrove tree of greed
"Sa, save me. Please!"
Lee Jong-soo begged for his life, but Jin-hyuk snorted coldly.
"why should I?"
If I do not save him, can he file a lawsuit through that big law firm?
"Come on, help... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
kwaduduk!
kwaduk!
The tree trunk crushed Lee Jongsu with great power.
The man who gives despair to others died.
But he didn't feel any remorse.
'A garbage like you is helpful in times like this.'
Everyone is in the middle of running upstairs.
'Now I can move slowly.'
With percussion!
Jinhyuk leaped towards the tree's body.
Now that most of the tree trunks are absorbing nutrients, this is an opportunity, For sure.
Awesome a sweet opportunity!
But Not all tree trunks are absorbing.
With the sound of the wind, two vines aimed at Jinhyuk.
If hit, of course, he will look like Lee Jong-soo.
After being crushed, all body fluids will be sucked away.
Jinhyuk tilted his body.
'It's not difficult to avoid.'
The tree trunks that cut through the air colliding.
Pop!
It Shattered into pieces of wood.
35 degrees to the right.
22 degrees to the left.
angle and direction.
Again, there was no error at all from what he experienced in the game.
at the perfect timing. The tree trunk, which was attacking Jinhyuk, rather than penetrated his body it instead attacks the main body of the mangrove.
Jinhyuk smirked.
'Yes. Finding the exact trajectory like this and making it attack itself is not difficult.'
"Oh oh oh oh oh!"
The mangroves of greed let out a heavy scream.
Why do you sound in pain when you feel almost no pain?
The bulkiness is distracting. Anyone who sees it would be thinking to pour oil and set fire to it.
Jinhyuk grabbed a piece of wood that had fallen on the floor.
"Why don't you let me go to easily rather than get worn and quietly get pierce by this 'wood shard'?"
This guy is event-oriented, so it doesn't give any experience points.
At most, one would get one day in the 'Hall of Fame' that is the end.
It would be better to get only what you want than to fight to the death and live without losing your strength.
"Koooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"
The mangrove roared wildly.
He doesn't know what it says, but surely it means he doesn't like it.
If it's like this, I'll just have to knock it down.
Jinhyuk pointed the sharp part of the wood shard forward.
[The mangrove tree of greed uses the skill 'Vampire Vine'!]
Boooong!
Boooong!
Dozens of tree trunks spewed out at once.
No matter how hard he avoids, to avoid all of that vine is unreasonable.
But changing the trajectory little by little... ….
'It Is possible.'
Jinhyuk's eyes narrowed.
At the same time, he moved the fragments of wood he held in his hand according to the timing of the flying trunk.
Kaga Gaga!
A tree trunk that had passed by brushing the wooden and stuck to the ground on the other side.
starting with that
Puppupuck!
The real battle began.
While holding the 30cm-long fragment in his hand in reverse.
Jinhyuk walked forward one step at a time.
-Rabbit Gongdue: I can only get admiration. crazy Crazy. I also filmed up to the 7th floor, but looking at that, it looks like it should be crouched down. Even if you die and rivive 100 times, you won't be able to follow the step of that stagnant person?
There were a few highs and lows, but the reaction of those who saw the video was the same.
-Kingsman: My name is Hosik Park, director of Ohsung Semiconductor. 1 billion as a contract. And we can pay you 100 million won every month.
-Jaedragon: I'll give you as much money you want, so if you see this comment, please contact me.
-If the blank sheet is right: I'm gathering a team right now... ….
Even the comments begging to be together with him were not boring.
Jinhyuk savored reading articles in the community.
'Is it that great?'
Of course, it's not easy to catch the Mangrove of Greed at level 1.
Well,... ….
'It's not that surprising.'
Oh! but.
Others haven't played mid-to-late tower, so maybe that's the case.
Because I keep forgetting that I shouldn't think by their standards.
Jinhyuk smiled bitterly.
'By the way, 1 billion... … .'
Seeing the unrealistic amount, the past came to mind.
It was a life that was difficult to put into words.
Even the rent was often delayed.
There were times when he starved for days to prepare food for the mukbang.
If he was offered this money just the day before, he would have accepted the offer without a second thought.
but now.
give me a billion, give me 100 billion
I have no intention of sharing what I know.
'Money is not important.'
Yes.
That's not what's important right now.
Jinhyuk searched for the 'National Museum of Korea' on his mobile phone.
A large museum is located in Yongsan-gu, Seoul.
At the time of playing the game, in the aftermath of the appearance of the Tower of Trials, the overflowing mana had spread all over Seoul.
Most were not affected much, but there was one major change.
The relics that were just outside the tower were turned into holy relics.
Of course, it's not real.
Because the relics with mythical powers were inside the tower.
What I'm talking about now is a replica.
In other words, it is a duplicate version.
'This is where you can get the most replicas.'
A place where many relics are stored.
The National Museum of Korea was like a treasure trove of sorts.
the problem is.
The point is that he is not the only ones aiming for this.
Unlike the mangrove trees that appeared in seven places in Seoul alone, there was only one National Museum of Korea.
Surely there will be people from all over the place looking for relics.
And, of course, there will be awaken people among them.
"I'll have to get ready soon."
Jinhyuk shoved his phone into his pocket.
He will move on the night when all the spectators disappeared.
＊＊＊
Jinhyuk stopped by E-Mart located at Yongsan Station.
Because there were items to shop for before the sun went down.
'Let's see I need hanja paper.'
About 5 30cm-long transients were placed in the cart.
'Is this enough?'
It was a bit disappointing that it couldn't be used as a weapon, but it would be the same for others anyway.
At best, a cleaver or hammer would be all that could be kept.
Jinhyuk pushed the cart and headed to the checkout counter.
At the same time, breaking news about the tower in the ordeal was coming out on the TV on display.
- The government is now actively investigating the situation... ….
-The president convened all ministers, including the Minister of Defense, this afternoon... ….
-… … Experts in each field gather... ….
However, trying to come up with a one-hundred-day countermeasure was useless.
If you substitute logic and reason for the supernatural, you won't get anything.
Jinhyuk looked out the window.
He could see the sun setting over the mountains.
the day is over
The night was coming.
KwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwa!
As the distance got closer, the perceived speed of the attack also increased.
Puppupuck!
A tug-of-war where even a single mistake is not tolerated.
Jinhyuk countered all attacks.
'The rhythm… must ride it.'
He have to find the unique rhythm and adapt to it.
There is no reason to be afraid.
Because it has already been repeated many times.
Eventually, the distance was reduced to 1 m.
Now, with just one leap, he was able to dig inside.
pounding! pounding!
He could feel the rustling of the trees.
Through the knotholes, something resembling a human heart could be seen.
that's his weakness
But just then.
Boo woo woo!
Something flew all at once among the branches.
it was a butterfly
Thousands of blue-colored butterflies.
The sight of them flying through the air, scattering sparkling powder, created a picturesque spectacle.
"Suck!"
Jinhyuk stopped breathing.
'Sleeping Butterfly.'
They are the ones who use the dust as the sleeping component as a defense mechanism.
Since the effect occurs quickly through the respiratory system, there were many cases of helplessness when dealing with it for the first time.
But in other words.
It also meant that if you didn't breathe, there was no threat.
Jinhyeok took a deep breath and in an instant, he dug into the main body of the tree.
A piece of wood rotated counterclockwise... ….
Whoops!
It just pierced the heart of the mangrove.
"Kyaaaaaa!"
A shattering scream rang out.
The branches swayed left and right.
Jinhyuk gave his hands even more strength.
Whoops! Whoops!
After a while, the screaming stopped.
The tree did not move any further.
Finally defeated this guy.
"Whoa!"
Jinhyuk let out a long breath.
Sweat and heavy breathing.
And a heart that beats like crazy.
Everything made him feel alive.
haahaa.
'I think the repeated pattern attack and timing study is still helpful in this way.'
Suddenly, he felt grateful for everything he had done so far.
That was then.
[You have defeated the 'Mangrove Tree of Greed' for the first time.]
A status window with a congratulatory message appeared.
Oh right.
'Come to think of it, I must have been the first in the world.'
That's the story... ….
[Your achievements will be recorded in the 'Hall of Fame' for one day from tomorrow.]
[Tell the player's name.]
Again, this follows up.
A system is like a beggar that asks for personal information to be inducted into the Hall of Fame.
"I don't want to tell my name. I'll keep everything private."
Jinhyuk answered without hesitation.
The fact that personal information is known is one of its specifications.
If others find out that he kill it now, he will get all kinds of unwanted attention.
[Name Unknown, face tessellated, and voice tampered with.]
Complete confidentiality is not allowed in the system.
'I guess that means compromise by hiding who I am.'
Of course, it wasn't that there wasn't a way to fix it later.
