Episode 208
Tartarus, a labyrinth located in the depths of the Abyss.
In a place filled with S-class monsters, something unbelievable was happening.
This was because humans were using the labyrinth, which could be said to be the activity radius of group-level monsters.
At the center of creating this ridiculous scene were three demons.
Min Ji-hong, leader of the malicious guild.
The shadow of the last Samrodu of the Triad.
and.
Kasim Zort, the head of Har-Sultan.
Labyrinth Tartarus was one of the hideouts built in the Abyss by the alliance of three Majes who surpassed national power level players.
The innermost part of the labyrinth.
Two demons were talking in a place surrounded by a huge wall.
It was Min Ji-hong and his shadow.
“What did the religious leader do?”
Min Ji-hong asked, quenching his thirst with a bottle of alcohol.
“I threw it in Guangzhou.”
Likewise, the shadow holding the bottle of alcohol answered.
“Guangzhou. “What an unfortunate location.”
This is where there was once an unexplored dungeon.
The miasma and gray disease erupted as the dungeon broke.
Therefore, entry to the general public was still prohibited.
“There’s no better place to hide now.”
“Yes, saving your life comes first.”
Min Ji-hong giggled as she remembered Min Dae-hee begging for her life.
I kept it alive for the time being because it had some use.
‘I guess I’ll have to get rid of it after the next plan is over.’
There is no longer any need for such a weak guy in the future he envisions.
“Anyway, it was unexpected. New Korea guys. “I thought you were going to rush in like crazy.”
Ji Jin-hee was a person who would do anything for her colleagues.
Kim Tae-hyun is also a person with great pride in his own power.
I thought Kim Tae-hyun, who returned to Earth, would come here right away.
New Korea was fully meeting the three-day deadline they had originally proposed.
“They said that Kim Taehyun invaded Archduke Igmun’s territory. “You probably need some rest.”
Min Ji-hong said, recalling what Orgal’s subordinate reported this morning.
“Did he say that the archduke he signed a contract with was Rosaria?”
“okay. Although it cannot be compared to us humans. “I heard he is considered the weakest among the archdukes.”
Min Ji-hong tilted the bottle, remembering Orgal’s words.
The 7th Duke who rules the Abyss.
Excuse me. Orgal. Beelzebub. Jormungand. Rosaria. Hazard. Lucifer.
Through the previous battle, we have already confirmed that Kim Tae-hyun is Rosaria’s contractor and Cody Cruz is Lucifer’s contractor.
‘Are there two contractors remaining?’
The corners of my mouth went up without me knowing what was going to happen next.
“You look happy.”
“ah. “I want to test this power as soon as possible.”
Min Ji-hong raised an arm that could no longer be called human.
Arms and legs regenerated by Orgal’s power.
At first glance, it has the shape of a human, but in reality it is the body of an SS-class monster.
Even though I was controlling it with all my might, the brown magic emanating from my arms was unstoppable.
‘Are you trying to devour this body?’
cook.
A laugh escaped me without even realizing it.
I thought I had made a contract with the Archduke and had transcended humanity.
But now he was becoming such a huge monster that it was almost laughable to see him back then.
‘Orgal. I will accept all your power.’
That’s when Min Ji-hong was thinking about this and calculating his next plan.
“That girl is slowly reaching her limit.”
The shadow said as it looked at Yoo Ah-young, whose arms and legs were tied to one wall.
He had a haggard appearance that did not befit the name of the Night Walker guild leader.
One arm was torn off to prevent it from resisting, and the remaining limbs were then broken.
“Wait a little longer. “If you kill them, they won’t have any value as hostages.”
Min Ji-hong approached Yoo Ah-young and lifted her chin.
His eyes, pale from the considerable amount of blood loss, were trembling.
“Isn’t it? “Guild leader Yoo Ah-young.”
“… … .”
Yoo Ah-young, who had no strength left to react, lowered her head.
While his entire body was damaged, he did not receive proper treatment.
Even though I am enduring it with a body that has been trained to its limit.
If things continued like this, I wouldn’t be able to last two days.

‘Kim Tae-hyun… .’
In her hazy consciousness, she remembered Taehyun.
It’s been two days since I was caught here.
They tied up Ayoung and casually blurted out things that could be considered confidential.
For example, the place where he is being held is Tartarus, a labyrinth located in the deepest level, and Taehyeon is a contractor for the Archduke Rosaria.
Even Night Walkers, who are active around the world, are casually mentioning things that cannot be understood.
Now that some puzzles have been put together, I feel like I know where Taehyun’s strength came from.
But not this time.
‘Dangerous… .’
Taehyun also seemed like it would be difficult to guarantee his life.
That’s because there are two anti-aircraft contractors in Tartarus.
‘Kim Tae-hyun never… You can’t come… .’
When Ayoung was thinking like that.
Quaaaaa.
The gate opened next to her.
“this. “An uninvited guest has arrived.”
Min Ji-hong, who said that, lightly punched A-young in the abdomen.
Kwasik.
Without letting out any moan.
Ayoung, who was defenseless, fainted.
* * *
What appeared was a 3 meter tall figure.
It was a skeleton with white bones imbued with brown magic.
However, the unusual energy emanating from its white bones suggested that it was not an ordinary monster.
“this. “Are you a guest?”
The shadow asked, assessing the opponent’s strength.
An SS-grade monster that surpasses the S-grade monster Lich and the S+-grade monster Grand Lich.
It was clearly the guy that Min Ji-hong had told me about earlier as High Lich, Orgal’s subordinate.
“well. “I never invited you?”
Min Ji-hong said as he looked at High Lich, who had completely crossed the gate.
“Orgal is looking for you. human.”
High Rich spoke New Korean in a gloomy voice.
“It’s Orgal… “I guess he ordered me to catch Kim Tae-hyun?”
Min Ji-hong didn’t care and asked back.
At Orgal’s command, a stage was prepared to capture Kim Tae-hyun.
But now you’re looking for yourself?
“Orgal. you. “He is looking for you.”
High Lich interrupted and spoke again.
The attitude was that questions would not be allowed.
“hey. I came to catch Kim Tae-hyun by his order. “Shouldn’t we at least know the reason?”
“Orgal’s orders are absolute.”
“… … .”
Min Ji-hong frowned at his coercive attitude.
We know that to higher species, humans are nothing more than tiny creatures, bugs, and meat.
Even if he is a demon who turned the world into an enemy and an anti-aircraft contractor.
Min Ji-hong is a person of some use to High Rich in front of him.
It is nothing more or less than that.
“Tsk. “It really bothers me.”
“That attitude now. Are you refusing Orgal’s orders?”
Min Ji-hong sighed softly.
The shadow watching from the side realized that Min Ji-hong was very angry.
It was an instant.
Hwaaaah.
A mixture of black and brown magic was unleashed in Min Ji-hong’s body.
[You rebel against Orgal… .]
It was when High Lich tried to respond by raising his magic power.
Five black holes were created around him.
The moment when High Lich’s magic seemed to be disturbed by the sudden attraction.
Crack.
Min Ji-hong’s fist, which had collapsed, touched High Lich’s skull.
New Korean ancient martial arts 2nd type. Mountain scenery.
Quadddddd.
High Lich’s skull was shattered into pieces by the immense magical power.
after.
Kwasik.
Min Ji-hong’s swollen legs trampled the High Lich’s magic gemstone.
The SS grade monster was destroyed in one go.
“Are you going to be okay?”
The shadow that was watching asked.
Killed Orgal’s messenger.
Although there were no eyes to see, if no action was taken like this, the position would be in trouble.
“Tsk. “What on earth is that damned bastard thinking?”
Jihong Min clicked her tongue, thinking about Orgal.
This guy thinks of himself as a horse that can be thrown away at any time.
Although I don’t like it.
“I guess I’ll have to please him now.”
“Please come back. “Didn’t you call him just in case something like this happened?”
Min Ji-hong nodded at the shadow’s persuasion.
Another anti-aircraft contractor, Kassim Zort.
And the mass-produced S-class mines gathered here.
When I thought about the power that Kim Tae-hyun had the other day.
‘It’s a strength worth trying even without me.’
In particular, expectations were high for Kassim Jort.
“okay. I’ll be back soon. “There’s no need to overdo it.”
“Hehe. “You look at me so contemptuously.”
Min Ji-hong waved his hand and crossed the gate opened by High Lich.
dump.
The shadow tipped the bottle and looked at the remains of the extinct High Lich.
Before he knew it, his partner had become someone he couldn’t ignore.
and.
Kassim Jort, a man with as much malignancy as Min Ji-hong.
His ugly face came to mind as he was experimenting on monsters somewhere in the labyrinth.
“It’s a battle of anti-aircraft contractors… “That sounds fun.”
The shadow smiled wryly and began preparing to greet Taehyun.
It was more than a day later that Taehyun arrived in Tartarus.
* * *
“Welcome. “Shadow is waiting.”
Taehyun tilted his head as he looked at Mine who was coming out to meet him.
It’s a face I’ve never seen before, not even in the wanted list.
However, I could feel the magical power of this guy, which was equivalent to only that of an S-class intermediate player.
“Were they using the labyrinth as a hideout…? .”
Ji Jin-hee, who followed along, muttered with an expression as if she had been hit.
Coordinates sent by the shadow.
It was right in front of Tartarus, the deep labyrinth.
‘There was still power left to take control of the deep labyrinth. This is a bit… .’
As if laughing at Ji Jin-hee’s thoughts, Mine exuded murderous spirit.
“The only person Shadow ordered to bring in is Kim Tae-hyun. You cannot enter here. Of course, you disarm yourself and go in.”
Ji Jin-hee, Park Seong-jin, Kwon Kang-hyuk, Kwak Si-yang, etc.
Many players frowned.
Although I expected it.
It was because I wasn’t happy about having to play around with Mine.
“Well, isn’t that what you expected?”
A pair of rare grade daggers, a potion belt, and an infinite backpack provided by the association.
Taehyun spoke casually and disarmed.
“Guide me.”
As Mine approached, the entrance to Tartarus opened.
‘indeed. It could be called a labyrinth of the deep.’
From the beginning, it seemed three times larger than the Labyrinth Minotaros.
It makes me wonder what kind of monster is ruling this place.
“This way.”
Taehyun had barely walked ten steps after Mine.
Tiring.
[Skill use has been detected. I was caught in the Imprinting Nightmare (S). It resists with mysterious power. Resistance was successful.]
[Skill use has been detected. You have been affected by Necromancy (S). It resists with mysterious power. Resistance was successful.]
[Skill use has been detected. I have hikikomori (S). It resists with mysterious power. Resistance was successful.]
Dozens of curses rained down on Taehyun.
All of them were skills that were comparable to those of an S-rank player.
‘Is there still this much magic left?’
Taehyun checked the status window, surprised by the power of the remnants.
The curse had no effect due to the power of predation.
However, the association’s tracking and buff skills that had been applied to Taehyun were released.
‘It’s better.’
This is a strategy that was followed from the beginning to ease Ji Jin-hee’s worries.
And now that strategy has gone awry from the start.
All actions were at Taehyun’s discretion.
“Follow me. “It’s this way.”
Mine pointed to one of the crossroads as if nothing had happened.
“hey.”
Taehyun stopped walking and quietly called out to Mine.
“Questions are not allowed. If you don’t hurry, Yoo Ah-young’s life will be lost… .”
It was an instant.
Taehyun grabbed Mine’s neck.
“Ugh… .”
“Do you like truth games?”
Tiring.
[Skill Complete Hypnosis (S) has been activated. Specify the target. Concentrate your magic power.]
Taehyun’s red eyes met Mine’s embarrassed eyes.
“What are you doing… .”
“You don’t have to answer.”
The magical power was concentrated in Taehyun’s red eyes.
“I will read it myself.”
The dark red magic power has become even stronger.
I started to ponder Mine’s mind.
