•After the minute!
Eight of the top-ranked players gathered in one place on the 4th floor of the Cokro Island underground prison. The highest rank among them was Peak Sword, who was ranked 16th on the overall ranking of players. Behind them were 200 elite members of the Silver Knight Guild.
It was a spectacular sight—a group of players with combined strength to seize a small fortress. However, tension and anxiety filled everyone's face.
•Four minutes!
As time was being counted down, the nervousness of the guild members reached its peak. They restlessly wiggled their feet and bit their nails. Peak Sword stared around with dark eyes. His hand that was holding his sword was soaked in sweat.
"I can't calm down."
The Cokro Island Dungeon was completely controlled by the Silver Knight Guild, and the boss monster, Hell Gao, appeared on the 4th floor every two weeks. Hell Gao was stronger than expected and had various patterns, so so far they were unable to succeed in any of their five attempts.
Over the past month, Peak Sword and the elites of the Silver Knights reinforced their items with money, all with the aim of succeeding at a later time. They were definitely stronger after all the investments, but those who knew the power of Hell Gao were unable to gather confidence.
•That's another minute!
After three minutes, Hell Gao would appear, and this place would turn into a sea of fire. Some of them would even be killed by fire alone.
•Two minutes away!
A heat wave began to slowly seep throughout the room.
'Damn.' Peak Sword wanted to encourage everyone, but he was afraid.
He was clearly reminded of the extraordinary appearance of Hell Gao, the monster of a stick-wielding boss shrouded in flames.
'Do we still lack the strength to defeat him?'
It might be different if the strength of the top 10 ranks were added, but he could not help but think that this Mission would fail with their current strength. However, the guild's best ranker couldn't show his weakness, so Peak Sword held him back.
'Do. We can do it. We are strong!’
Peak Sword steadied his heart and took out various buffing potions, with the others following him. At this moment...
•it's another minute
"Eh? A troublemaker! There's intruders!!”
"What?"
All the guild members' eyes turned towards the entrance. A young man has entered. It was unusual for him to be covered in a robe, with no armor or weapons in sight.
"Did he break through the defense forces downstairs?"
Is he a highly trained assassin? No, an assassin would not openly reveal their presence in a place like this. Peak Sword recalled the name above the black-haired young man's head. However, no matter how much he searched through his memories, Peak Sword still thought of him as an unfamiliar name.
'He's not a ranker?' Peak Sword glanced at his companions, but they all shook their heads.
'A non-ranker came all the way here. Pathetic.’ Peak Sword came to this conclusion and warned the young man with a frown, “This is an area controlled by the Silver Knight Guild. I'm not sure how you made it to this point, but if you don't want to die, come back. ”
The young man ignored Peak Sword's warning and removed his robe as he spoke to himself.
“My Stealth ability suddenly disappears. Is it because I was detected by Hell Gao?”
"Ohh!" There are calls from all directions.
The appearance of the armor that was quickly mounted on the young man's body was quite cool. Although it is made of metal, it seems suitable for the wearer, and its smooth surface strongly reflects light like a mirror. The armor was an elegant blend of red, black, and gold. A very unique thing is the one-meter-long tail that extends from around the tailbone. It was sharp like a knife, and amazingly, it moved on its own.
“A-What's with that armor?”
"Great... Unique Level?"
This was the first time they had seen such armor, so guild members struggled to hide their interest.
Peak Sword raised his voice,
Hell Gao was about to appear, then no one could escape from the dungeon. They had to deal with outsiders before that. When the guild members, who were interested in the armor, tried to carry out the Peak Sword command...
Roaaar!!!
...~{}~...
...[.Hell Gao, the lord of Hell Fire, has appeared.]...
...[.Auman Hell Gao has caused fear, chaos, and debilitating effects.]...
...[.Hell Gao fire reduces heat resistance by 50%.]...
...[.The pillar of fire has risen to protect you.]...
...~{}~...
“Kuak!”
“Hiiik!”
Due to the silent flames surrounding the entire body, half of the guild members fell into a dying or burning state to the point where they were not even recognizable. Nearly half of the people standing were able to survive.
Peak Sword was surprised by the notification window that appeared.
'I increased my fire resistance by 86%, but I still received this level of damage ...!'
We will fail again. As Peak Sword was in despair, he suddenly doubted his eyes. While the others were surrounded by flames, the young man himself was moving forward, moving freely like he was unaffected.
“B-How... Ughh?”
Peak Sword fell silent as he watched the ridiculous scene.
As Hell Gao raged and slaughtered the guild members, the young man took out an axe, headed towards the wall...?. and started swinging the axe...?
The traaang! The traaang!
The young man swung it in a good position and complained while wiping away the sweat,
“Ugh, hot! Is not the job getting harder? Why do minerals only appear when the floor boss appears? Based on this, I should probably visit the dragon nest with my pickaxe!” (a kind of mining equipment)
At that moment, a hot wind emerged from the staff that was waved by Hell Gao and hit the young man. Peak Sword expected the young man to receive great damage and die. Incredibly, however, the young man only suffered minor injuries.
“Excuse me, Sir,”
said the young man, stopping the pickaxe for the first time and turning his attention to Peak Sword. He asked with an angry expression,
“Why are you just standing there and dumbfounded? It's hot now, and it's getting hotter. ”
'What do I see now?' Think Peak Sword.
Then he too late regained his spirit and asked,
"How can you be okay?"
The young man replied as if clearly,
"It's an item effect."
Chaoyang! Chaoyang!
The tail on the young man's armor moved by itself and fought against Hell Gao's staff. Peak Sword could not close his mouth as he gaped at the unbelievable sight.
