Chapter 392 – 392. Hell Must Be Hell Anyway

After choosing all of Nicole’s achievements, Jang Jo-jun was heading to the Pillar of Blind Faith to meet the pillar trio who would have been resurrected.

At that time, Joon confirmed the flames shimmering in the distance.

“Hey! Is Helgen there!”

“Huh? Ah. Master.”

“Keep it off!!!! Hot, hot, hot, hot, hot!!!!!!”

“Oh, I got it.”

“I was trying to run away…”

“Nice job, Helgen.”

Soon Jo-jun Jang lifted the trio who had fallen to the ground with his tentacles and fired at the rising flesh.

“Quaaaaa!!!!”

“It hurts!! It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!!!!!”

“Hey hey hey!!!!”

The trio of pillars whose minds were shaken in an instant.

Jang Jo-joon so naturally branded the trio as slaves and sat down on a simple chair made with tentacles.

“Come on, angry horse. Quan of Envy. Did you say Neze of Lust? Answer.”

“Kuhuheouk.. Ma, that’s right..”

“Respect.”

“No, that’s right..! Master…!”

“Okay. Good. Not a big deal. You guys should die more often in the future.”

“Yes..?”

Zhang Zhaojun explained his plausible plan to his three pillars.

To sum up, I will build a city in Hell, and I will build a Colosseum in the center of the city, and you have to die regularly as gladiators in the Colosseum.

“That, what is that…”

“Since there is no way to refuse, you know that for now. But you mean How long must I die to be destroyed forever?”

“…That, that’s me too…”

“You don’t know? Ha. What to do.”

This is the problem.

Among the pillars currently alive, the ones who can give you proper experience are Fei, Malpa, Quan, Neze, and five Ogrins.

Because Croy and Andrea had died once before the death penalty was removed, they had lost all of their stored magic, so even if they killed them, they could not gain proper experience.

Here, Fei of Pride and Croy of Gluttony were excluded from hunting in the first place, so the only ones left were Malpa, Kwan, Neze, and Ogryn, who would come here soon.

‘But these guys… If they die more than a certain number of times, they’ll be annihilated.’

So, Jojun Jang wanted to know the exact number of times they had to die to be immortalized, but no one here knew exactly how many times they had to die to be immortalized.

In the end, women who went to catch the pillar of sloth appeared in front of Jang Jo-jun, who was trying to conclude that he had no choice but to catch one and keep killing him until he was destroyed.

“Brother!!”

“Hey! You caught it very quickly!”

Jojun Jang smiled benevolently at his party as he watched the pillar of indolence trudging along with a training rope hanging around his neck.

Seeing them successfully ‘abducted’ without any injuries, they felt the same feelings as a mother bird who witnessed the first hunt of her baby birds.

-Kudangtang!!

“Turn it off..”

Soon, the pillar of indolence, Ogryn, was thrown in front of Jang Jo-jun.

Zhang Zhaojun tried to discipline him by killing him once. At that time, Croy suddenly blocked Jang Jo-jun’s way.

“Huh? What’s the matter?”

“I have something I want to tell you, master.”

“Huh?”

“This guy has almost no combat skills.”

“So?”

“But the other skills are very good.”

“Another skill? What is that. Please explain in detail.”

Jang Jo-joon opened his eyes at the word “Different technology”. Particularly passionate about collecting technicians, he hurriedly canceled the skill he was trying to activate at Croy’s words.

It was his idea that technical jobs should be given preferential treatment. Like Hellus and the Blacksmiths of Hell, technical jobs were an important foundation, so it was necessary to keep them alive and use them unconditionally.

‘I’m sure there’s no one to use this as a leveling sacrifice other than the three idiots…’

A trio of Ogryn’s dramatic exit and a rotation that looks like it’s about to die. They gasped, satisfied that they were not in pain right now, knowing or not knowing that the burden that had been placed upon them had increased.

In the meantime, Croy was excited and explained the information about the Pillar of Sloth in detail to Jo-Jun Jang.

“So, this guy is an excellent scholar, inventor, read the notes of the sage, and has a high level of skill in handling the soul, and in fact, the wandering doctor was also this guy?”

“Right. Are you surprised? I was surprised too! So I wanted to let you know!”

“Uh.? Uh uh okay. It’s amazing.”

Croy just wanted to let you know that he was surprised. A very childish thought.

Croy, who satisfied the desire to share knowledge just because he was curious, returned to the base, the hidden throne, with a satisfied smile.

“Hmm… Hey, Ogryn?”

“Yes.. Haha..”

On the other hand, the Ogryn is completely terrified when he faces Jo-Jun Jang himself.

Looking at Zhang Zhao-jun’s soul, which was twisted so badly that he dared to doubt whether it was the same creature, he realized that the opponent had already gone far beyond the normal range.

It was a true magician.

‘The soul narrowly straddles the category of living beings… The vessels are different.’

I immediately understood why the Fei-class existence was so distant.

Most of all, when he saw the three pillars lying on the floor, broken like garbage, Ogreen naturally felt awe, longing, and loyalty to Jojun Jang.

It was the first time I had ever seen a soul so beautifully twisted.

“Uh? What, did you suddenly succumb? Then, starting with the stigma…”

Seeing the Ogryn who hadn’t done anything yet but had succumbed, Jojun Jang naturally hit his forehead.

Now, it was Jang Jo-joon who did not even think about making someone his property.

As if it were natural, the way he enslaved others was far beyond the category of normal or normal.

“By the way, Ogryn. There’s something I’m curious about…”

“Whatever, say anything. I will mobilize all the information I know and tell you..!”

“Woah, what is it? Why are you so zealous?”

Jang Jo-jun took a step back at Ogreen’s answer, which even felt the heat.

Because he always took a step closer and fought, the one who suddenly approached was Jang Jo-jun, who was a bit repulsive.

******

The pillars of indolence that the party caught were strangely active towards me, so I felt a little rejected.

Ordinary guys are afraid of me, or try to avoid me.. What the hell is this guy?

“Hmm. Uh, what I’m curious about is how many times do I have to die to become immortal?”

“Ah. That’s it. It’s a topic I researched about exactly 35 years ago.”

“Huh.”

Ogryn’s answer that he had already completed his research caused the Ogryn’s place within me to rise rapidly.

The Ogryn, who prepared answers to my questions, could not help but be accepted favorably.

‘Maybe worth using..’

Knowingly or unknowingly, I give preferential treatment to production or administrative positions. For example, you can tell by looking at how he constantly takes care of Hellus and Hajinseong.

When I evaluated myself objectively, hunting and collecting slaves were top-class, but I was wrong about internal stability. So those who know how to do the things I do wrong have no choice but to treat me well.

Only then will they work even harder with a sense of ownership.

In any case, in that sense, the Ogryn smelled of the useful talent he felt in Hellas.

“First of all, to summarize, we came to the conclusion that each spiritual body has a different limit.”

“Okay?”

“Yes, but the limits are all different. Once it goes over 100 times, it enters the stage of mania, and from this point on, immortality is virtually certain. I can only endure more with the strength of my will. There are those who die right away on the 100th, and there are those who endure more than that.”

“Oh. Still, it means that it lasts for at least 100 times.”

“Yes! There are even measuring tools!”

Ogryn proudly took out something like a diabetes meter from his bag. As a result, the value of Ogryn rose steeply in my inner brain index once again.

This guy is definitely a Heller.

A people crazy about research and invention who, if enough time and money are invested, will produce more than expected.

He was a well-mannered researcher who knew how to cut off even the explanation.

Sometimes there are people who are buried in their own research and give lengthy explanations. Compared to those guys, he has some level of social skills.

This is a valuable talent.

“Huh.”

“If you put a drop of the blood of a sinner here, you can find out how many times you have died.”

“So, those who died more than 100 times as measured by this are now at risk?”

“You’re right!”

“Hmm. Then, by chance…”

“Of course there is a way to make it last forever! This was also studied together in a similar context! It also worked.”

The guy who answers the question before it’s even finished…

“Are you really a useful guy?”

Haha!!!”

Ogryn smiled broadly at my praise.

“So what is the method?”

“It is to force a ghost that has already been destroyed into the soul of a sinner who is trying to restore it.”

“What..?”

“Doing so resets the number of possible deaths, not exactly, but about 9 or 10. Therefore, if you are a sinner who has died 100 times, even if you catch 10 ghosts, you will return to the original state to some extent.”

“This… Is new.”

The owner of the pillar is important. If you kill the pillar, the level goes up.

However, sinners are not that useful. Should I just say it feels the same? I wonder if they are objects like objects that have been forcibly filled in the wide field of infinite hell.

Therefore, it can be used as a consumable.

‘Above all, since I’ve obtained the throne, I can deal with those who have already become ghosts…’

Just as Fei arbitrarily released the wraiths into Hell, he was able to interfere with the pillars through the throne, so he could even use the wraiths he had already accumulated.

This means that the three pillars, Malpa, Quan, and Neze, have fallen into a contradictory situation where they have to continue dying without being able to die.

“Ugh…”

“Uh, why…”

“I don’t want to be a pillar!!!!”

Up to this point, the three pillars who have been active as pillars, enjoyed all kinds of wealth, glory and pleasure in hell, and now cry out that they do not want to fulfill their responsibilities.

It’s ridiculous. All of their karma.

“Oh right. Brother, this.”

“Huh? Oh! It’s a water balloon!”

In the middle of stepping on the three pillars, Eunji handed me a memoir of a wise man.

She had waited so as not to interrupt the conversation, and handed over her notes just in time for the conversation with O’Green to be over.

“Kia.!”

I took the note and looked around.

No matter how you look at it, there was no special feeling, and it was just an old book that was on the level of Jikjisimcheyojeol.

However, this is an item that can reset the environment of hell the moment you read it. I mean, it’s one of the three gods of Inferno…

“See..”

First of all, before reading the book, I told my companions to go back and rest first, and then I opened the book.

“Indeed…”

I wouldn’t be able to understand the letters written in the book, but as soon as I opened the book, several notification windows popped up in front of my eyes.

[Theme: No Man’s Land]
[Ecology: Extinction]
[Temperature: high temperature]
[Precipitation throughout the year: small]
[Resource reserves: extremely small]
[Capacity of prisoners: many]
[Pain Maintenance Cost: High (Fixed)]

It was a simplified setup. By manipulating this, it seems that he can interfere with the environment of Infernal Hell.

‘The amount of rainfall and resource reserves can be determined…?’

Even changing the theme seemed to change the appearance of the whole hell. Ecology was the ability to add biomes, and temperature could also be manipulated.

You can set the four seasons in the infernal hell.

“By the way, what’s the upkeep for this pain?”

“Oh, that’s…”

The Ogryn immediately began to explain.

“Therefore. When sinners pour out a certain amount of pain and negative emotions onto the pillar… You mean hell works properly?”

“You’re right. Hell has to be like hell, so it’s a kind of tax.”

“Indeed.”

According to Ogryn’s explanation, Mugan Hell is only a small part of the great dimension of the afterlife. Also, it was not a land given away for free, but a land loaned for the progress of the game.

So I had to pay a kind of tax, and that is the suffering of sinners.

Therefore, in order to maintain the existence of Infernal Hell, it was necessary to continuously make the sinners suffer.

“As expected, hell should be like hell.”

No matter how well the environment could be set up, it did not change the fact that sinners had to suffer in the end.

Because that’s hell
