Chapter 494 – 494. Reached by Fisherman’s Geography

Nous flew away to a strange space by himself.

“Keep.”

He rubbed his messy hair and rose from his seat.

Having broken too many traps, he was blown into a particularly dangerous place.

“This is…”

Even if his body receives a tolerable shock, it is regenerated with ‘spirit’.

As a result of the son of the World Tree entering the being standing at the opposite point of the World Tree, a kind of synergy was activated.

Of course, there was a side effect of losing a lot of intelligence, and if you couldn’t keep up your spirits, you just turned into a lump of mushrooms, but it was okay because you were still full of will.

Thanks to that, he was able to withstand the normal attack without dying yet.

After reaching some kind of immortality singularity, Nuth looked around for a way out. Because he had to get out quickly and find the world tree.

“Should I break down the wall again?”

Walking around Yujikji with Jang Jo-jun, he destroyed countless walls. At the same time, I smashed the traps and went around.

Recalling the sensation, Nous clenched his fist and struck the wall.

Coo!!!!

“Huh?”

But for some reason, unlike before, the wall wasn’t smashed. Doesn’t budge. Rather, it’s a state where only the hand hurts.

As if mocking Noos, the walls were reinforced.

To be precise, it was close to returning to its original state.

The God Slayer deliberately made Nus touch and destroy more traps in order to make Noos and Jang Jo-jun fall, and the moment the two fell, the ruins returned to their original state.

Yes, it was strange that the abode of the gods was destroyed at the hands of mortals in the first place.

“Why doesn’t this break?”

Nous felt the wall as he hit it, and his will was slightly shattered.

Knowing well that the only way to kill Nous, who possesses both growth and decay energy, is to break his will, the God Slayer prepared this trap to break Nous’ will.

Also known as the closed room of the infinite loop.

To break free, Jo-Jun Jang must defeat the God Slayer and reveal Nous’ location.

Until then, Nous had to fight for an infinite amount of time against the twin oceanic warriors who would not die even if they were killed, locked in this chamber where time passed dozens of times faster.

“This.”

A great man with a trident and a fishing net and a great man with a curved sword and a handgun approached.

“Chew. The smell of the forest.”

“Ha. Ha. The thighs are mine!”

“The fishy smell..”

Nous frowned at the twin Oceanians.

The two of them were strangely intertwined.

Instead of dying the moment they left this space, they were beings that could be resurrected several times in this space.

Moreover, this space collapses unconditionally the moment Jang Jo-jun wins. In a word, it means that if Jang Jo-jun wins, he will die unconditionally.

Instead of making an instant death condition, he obtained immortality.

Yes, they were also conditionally immortal, just like Nous.

“Whoa.”

Nous clenched his fists.

Will his will be broken first, or will Jo-jun Jang find Nous first?

A disorganized and ugly confrontation between a great ocean warrior and a former forest keeper has begun.

******

Koo Goo Goo!!!

The internal structure of the ruins of the Dark King has changed.

Thanks to this, the god slayer unintentionally locked Cheshire and Ainus in the basement.

All the others had been intentionally blown up, but these two were actually trapped in the basement by accident.

Thanks to that, the way to the top disappeared. Moreover, the terrain was forcibly changed and thousands of traps were entangled with each other.

“What, what?”

“I don’t know.”

Cheshire and Ainus, who were running away after stealing Krone’s emergency book, stopped running in surprise at the huge vibration that occurred when the internal structure of the ruins was changed.

Thanks to that, I was able to avoid stepping on the tangled trap. If I had moved a little more, I would have hit the trap and died.

“Something seems to have changed. Isn’t it because of us?”

“I don’t think so. Didn’t even touch the trap. I didn’t even give an excuse for the gimmick to work. External factors. Maybe Jang Jo-joon and Shin Slayer are attached?”

“Looks like Junie is fighting. Hmm.”

As expected by the girls, Jo-Jun Jang was fighting the beast of death.

“Maybe good.”

“The road is blocked.”

The internal structure was changed and all the byways Ainus found were blocked.

Since the passageway itself was completely gone, there was no way for them to escape from the basement unless they destroyed the walls and ceilings of the ruins, just as Jang Jo-jun and Nous broke down the walls and ceilings.

Of course, that is no longer possible. Even Nous couldn’t break a wall, so there was no way two people much weaker than him could break a wall or ceiling.

In a place where literally even breathing became dangerous, only Cheshire and Ainus were left.

“I think something happened…”

“Will everyone be okay?”

“I don’t know. Furthermore..”

Cheshire felt that the energy he had been chasing had almost disappeared. To be precise, it has become very weak.

Maybe it’s because the distance is huge.

“This is a big deal.”

It was not the time to worry about Jang Jo-jun.

Cheshire instinctively realized. That the atmosphere of the space has changed.

“Ainus. Did you feel it too?”

“Yes. This. I’m going crazy.”

Cheshire, an expert in shooting and survival, and Ainus, a master of disarming traps and finding paths.

The two quickly admitted that there was no way out of this place.

“Shall we wait and not move?”

“Would you like that? There are so many traps, I can’t think of disarming them.”

“Right.”

Therefore, the two decided to wait for a while until the dark king’s residence returned to its original state.

I had faith that Jang Jo-jun would win, so I didn’t even worry about it.

If there’s just one problem…

“Found!!!!”

It means that the dwarves who were chasing them had no intention of staying still.

“Driving me crazy.”

“When did you come all the way here?”

I thought they had definitely been bullied, but before I knew it, they had reached this point in search of traces of the two. To be precise, they were also close to being blown all the way here due to fishermen’s geography.

Anyway, judging from their bodies, those guys are also in a bad state.

“If you make the wrong move here, we all die together.”

“That, yes. Shall we fight later? Yes?”

Cheshire and Ainus tried to calm them down, hoping they wouldn’t run amok.

“It’s okay to die.”

“I will make you my companions.”

Of course, there was no way I could communicate with the stubborn dwarves.

Even so, they firmly believed that their actions were the resurrection of the World Tree, so they had no intention of stopping.

Rather, it was to the extent that it was fortunate that this space was filled with traps. Even if you touch one trap, the traps will trigger in a chain and grind all the people in this space.

“Do not do it Do not do it!!!”

Cheshire shouted, but the dwarves laughed and touched the trap.

They pounded the walls, floor, and ceiling with their bows and swords.

Pa-ang!!!!

Traps are triggered.

One, two… Countless traps broke through simultaneously and covered Cheshire, Ainus, and all the dwarfs gathered there.

******

“Kuk. This is…”

Cheshire opened his eyes.

There was nothing left around her.

Neither the Ainus nor the demons had disappeared.

She was only her

Moreover, even the weak connection with Jang Jo-jun was severed.

“Why..”

She got up from her seat.

The clothes she was wearing and even the equipment she had were all gone.

“This is… A non-urgent letter?”

The only thing left is Krone’s secret letter.

As a result of fulfilling certain conditions, she reached the source of negativity.

It was a kind of offering ceremony.

“Her.”

I see a light in the distance

A ray of light in a very dark space.

That’s the exit If you get out of there, you can go back to that place.

“No.”

Cheshire shook his head.

It is not good to go to the exit.

Her instincts were calling out.

Go deeper and deeper.

Deny that light and hide yourself even more.

The emergency letter in her hand was shouting.

To find the source.

He was telling you to raise the level of your soul by offering the souls you absorbed to find your source.

“Ah.”

Only then did Cheshire realize that there were more than a dozen souls inside her that were not her own.

Those were the spirits of the dwarves I had encountered earlier.

The souls of the demons who had been cut off by her traps had entered Cheshire before she knew it.

In addition, Ainus’ soul was also inside Cheshire.

“Ainus? I can hear?”

She asked her own inner self.

No answer came back, but…

“There is.”

I felt my pulse.

“Why is this happening?”

She questioned.

She had no one to give her an answer to her question.

No one answered.

No one told her that she had reached this place because there was a rift.

No one answered that she had been living half-deprived of her soul for decades, and that she was able to reach the source of negativity.

Cheshire has lived with her soul stolen by demons.

That’s why she couldn’t get out of the black market, and she’s been living in the black market all her life.

Getting out of that state is a recent thing.

By raiding the black market underworld with Joon Jang, she was able to recover her soul.

However, even her recovered soul could not fill the rift inside her.

The bowl of the soul, which had already opened to the extent of opening, could not be filled with the recovered soul.

So she was able to get to the source of negativity.

Because she was still lacking, she arrived here.

While absorbing all the souls of others as if they were receiving an offering.

She was able to come because she was lacking. She’s here because she wasn’t perfect.

She had been denied for decades, having her soul robbed, so she was able to get to the source of the negativity.

Tboob. Tboob.

She walked inside.

With your back to the light.

Deeper.

So she reached

To the source of negativity.

******

“Aaaaa!!!!”

“Kyaaaaa!!!”

Meanwhile, No. 13, Ella, Bella, Jillian and Jung Ji-yeon.

These five people were surrounded by the people chosen by Jang Jo-jun and were defending their souls.

Since the demon hunters rushing towards them were engaged in a slaughter battle with their lowly family members, they could do nothing but get caught up in the crowd and move.

It was literally caught up in a mess. It was the result of being teleported as a group in a narrow hallway.

“Ahh!! Don’t push!!”

“I didn’t push!”

“You are so narrow that you can’t breathe… Ugh…”

“This!!!”

No. 13 and her twin sister will never know.

While they were here trying their best not to be caught in the crowd and crushed to death, Cheshire had first touched the source of negativity.

Somehow, it was Cheshire who gulp down the dark king’s treasure.
