“Anyway, the structures of the rooms in the maze are simple. There is always a door somewhere in the east, west, south, and north.”
“that’s right.”
“It won’t open by force, just by pushing or hitting it. It will only open if you know the secret.”
Easy!
As soon as he finished speaking, he sent upward air currents in all three directions except the entrance through which Sang-Hyeon had entered.
Although it was a strong air current, the rising air current that hit the wall quickly dispersed and disappeared.
“The key to this room doesn’t seem to be Airborne.”
“……no way?”
Han Hyun-jung snapped her fingers as an idea flashed through her mind at Sang-hyeon’s words. Could it be that he was using the key to change his status?
To be honest, it felt like a wild guess. Could it really be true?
“Then it could be a knockback?”
This time, he deployed a knockback burst.
It was a bit daunting to see it moving diligently forward, backward, and to the right, but it was still brisk.
Right then.
Taang! Taang! Taaang… … !
The third time, a particularly clear sound came from the right side where the knockback burst came in. It was clearly different.
The next moment.
Kugogogogo… … !
“and!”
Han Hyun-jung’s mouth fell open.
As if it had been waiting, as soon as the knockback occurred, a crack began to appear in the wall.
Sure enough, the door was opening. The path to the next room was clearly visible!
“The key to this room was Knockback. Master. Make sure to write it down. We’re not going to do this just once, are we?”
Han Hyeon-jeong, who came to her senses at Sang-hyeon’s words, drew a rough sketch of the room on the notepad she had prepared in advance.
He drew special patterns on the ceiling and quickly wrote down the internal structure and its characteristics.
Han Hyun-jung asked.
“Are you saying we should make a map?”
“These labyrinthine dungeons are worth what the map says. Even if they don’t sell, they have great value internally.”
“That’s right.”
“The half of the answers that the Master couldn’t solve are status abnormalities. I can guarantee it.”
“How can you be so sure? It’s not that I don’t trust Sang-Hyeon, it’s just that I find it so fascinating.”
It struck me as almost miraculous, to the point where I couldn’t believe it was just a change of perspective.
Something was strange from the start.
Clearly, in his life as a player, this would be the first time for Sang-Hyeon to conquer a labyrinth… … .
He didn’t show any signs of being nervous at all. It was as if he knew how to deal with all kinds of situations.
I think I can understand the reason for the sense of alienation that Han Hyun-jung felt while conquering the labyrinth. It was because of her leisure.
“There is no better key to tricking players. After all, it is only a matter of time before the designer finds the answer through regularity or numerical arrangement.”
“… … .”
“Let’s speed things up a bit. It might take some time because we have to keep rotating the skills.”
Sang-Hyeon strode briskly down the wide open passage on the right.
Then he immediately took his place in the center and started hitting the wall using his full bash this time.
The purpose was to test whether stiffness was the ‘key’.
But when there was no response from the inner wall, I immediately changed my choice.
This time, it was the ‘Whisper of Darkness’ skill. In other words, it was real name.
and.
Kuddddddd.
The door opened immediately.
“… … .”
Even though Han Hyun-jung and the members of Hyun-jung Corporation racked their brains, they were unable to find an answer.
It was the moment when the puzzle that had taken up half of the maze was solved.
* * *
The entire maze map was quickly completed.
Sang-Hyeon persuaded Han Hyeon-Jeong to create a map of the entire maze, even if it would take some time.
Among them, I filtered out all the rooms that required the discovery of regularities and continuities rather than abnormalities.
Then, out of a total of 120 rooms, the correct answer was found for 100 rooms.
Now, even if the location or layout of the room changes, it seems like there won’t be any trouble since the answer sheet is definitely there.
It was decided to negotiate the share and price for maps that are more than 80% complete after the labyrinth is conquered.
Because the shares of Sang-Hyeon and Hyun-Jung Corporation were divided exactly in half, the calculation seemed easy.
one side.
Sang-Hyeon was amazed at the various abilities Han Hyeon-Jeong displayed while moving through the maze.
First of all, the ability to see through walls and high-magnification observation to scout out absurdly long distances were basic.
It shouldn’t be surprising.
Because it is an ability that is so obvious to Han Hyun-jung.
The ability to see and observe was close to the realm of the gods, something that Sang-Hyeon could not even dare to dream of.
I think I know why overseas players look for Han Hyun-jung when they go to conquer dungeons, gates, or cracks that haven’t been conquered yet.
She was a pro among pros.

In particular, his observation skills were top-notch.
Even Sang-Hyeon, whose sixth sense was highly developed, was almost in danger on two occasions.
There were death traps placed in the form of very thin, invisible threads within the maze.
A trap that cannot be seen with the naked eye no matter how much you look at it, but will cut your flesh if you just pass by it.
Here, Sang-Hyeon, who almost got his neck and calves cut, overcame the crisis thanks to Han Hyeon-Jeong’s observation.
It was a crisis that even Sang-Hyeon, who had a keen eye, almost fell for because he hid his appearance so cleverly.
Of course, Sang-Hyeon also quickly progressed forward to find the answer to the maze under her firm protection.
The level of mutual satisfaction was utmost.
The person with the best eyes and attribute buffs.
And the person who can quickly destroy the enemies he finds with those eyes and find the answer to the tightly blocked maze!
The harmony of fantasy made escaping the maze, which seemed impossible, possible.
* * *
The last of the labyrinth of tranquility.
Before entering the fifth section, Sang-Hyeon and Han Hyeon-Jeong shared a high-calorie chocolate bar and talked.
The corners of Han Hyun-jung’s trembling lips were filled with surprise at the path the two had taken.
There were certainly parts where my heart pounded with a rising sense of accomplishment.
“I can’t believe it. Honestly, I thought that even with Sang-Hyeon, we would have to be lucky to get through the maze section.”
“You are aware that the key is a bit expensive, right?”
“That’s right. The fourth section can’t be done without Sang-Hyeon, unless you’re really lucky… … .”
Han Hyun-jung nodded.
No matter what player you bring to the world, they won’t be able to equip all the various abnormal status skills like Sang-Hyeon.
However, the number of people entering the labyrinth is limited, so it is difficult to force people in just by number.
Then, the calculation is that among the 2 or 3 attackers, at least one of them must be Sang-Hyeon.
“I’ll think about it after I finish it. There’s still a mid-boss and a boss left. Oh my, look at the bridge.”
Sang-Hyeon let out a deep sigh as he looked at the mid-boss monster that was standing in front of him as if it was nothing.
Name: Blade Spider.
As the name suggests, the eight legs attached to the head and chest were shaped like sharp swords.
Needless to say, it was a sharp blade at first glance, and a deep blue light was constantly emitting from it.
It was thought to be a kind of black magic concept, meaning that even a simple brush with it could cause serious injury.
‘Even a blade spider like that will spit out a unique artifact. You can also upgrade your specs before attacking the boss.’
Sang-Hyeon holds the True Demon Sword tightly, ready to rush into battle at any time.
“I’ll focus on adding fire attribute buffs. When it comes to arachnid monsters, it’s all about how quickly you can neutralize those creepy legs.”
“I think so too. Let’s go with the fire attribute. I’ll also try to see what grilled spider meat tastes like.”
“It was more delicious than I expected. It’s crispy when cooked well.”
“Have you tried it?”
“Yes. The only inedible things are the fat grubs that come out of rotten trees. They’re inedible raw.”
“I never thought Korea’s Bear Grylls would be here… … .”
Sang-Hyeon laughed.
In fact, Sang-Hyeon had eaten them all in his previous life. Raw larvae were rather cute.
When I really couldn’t find anything to eat, I would even eat handfuls of maggots growing on corpses.
In a situation where I was so hungry that I almost collapsed, it didn’t matter where or how I got the food.
“Then I’ll go. I’ve fully recovered my strength and my condition is perfect.”
“I’ll assist with the fire attribute buff, and then change the buff depending on the battle situation.”
“When the wall bursts. At that time, please change it to a lightning series buff.”
“Okay. I understand the skill mechanism because Sang-Hyeon explained it to me, so that part is fine.”
“Okay, don’t get too close. Let’s go!”
Sang-Hyeon, who had Han Hyun-Jung’s attribute buffs firmly behind him, immediately deployed Over Psychedelic and Acceleration.
Even if I caught the blade spider, there was still the next obstacle, so I didn’t want to spend too much time on it.
『Flame』
The starting skill was fire.
In fact, up until now, Sang-Hyeon has rarely used attribute-type skills.
This is because no monsters that are greatly affected by attributes have appeared, meaning the difficulty level was one level lower.
However, this time, while conquering the Labyrinth of Peace, the importance of attributes has greatly increased.
Things get a little more tricky as monsters start to have resistance and weakness attributes.
In other words, if you have the power of attributes to use in the right place at the right time.
It was possible to inflict damage to monsters that was much stronger than basic physical damage. With the power of the attribute.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
“Wow, I almost plucked my eyebrows off.”
As Han Hyun-jung’s fire attribute buff began to overlap, the intensity of the flames grew stronger.
If the fire skill originally used by Sang-Hyeon had a level 2 firepower.
Even if we set the firepower of the current buffed flame skill to the lowest level, it is at least level 5.
‘I said the buffer is always right.’
It was an unchanging truth.
Attack dealers are also very important.
If the buffer assisting this is a skilled player, the team’s power will be upgraded by two, or even three times.
Right then.
‘Oh my.’
Sang-Hyeon, whose gaze met the numerous single eyes of the blade spider, immediately sensed the danger and responded.
『Pure White』
It was a response that definitely raised the resistance to mind control skills to 100%.
Tingling.
‘also.’
An unpleasant feeling passed through my temples. It was a sign of an attempt at mental control.
I thought it would have no mental skills since it was an arachnid monster, but it was Sang-Hyeon’s misjudgment.
Of course, nothing happened, so as a blade spider, you just lost one useful piece of equipment.
‘Anyway, the biggest weakness of spiders is their underbelly. It’s a part that’s hard to cover with their legs.’
Sang-Hyeon used his brave charge and quickly rushed under the blade spider’s belly.
The sharp blade pursued and aimed for Sang-Hyeon, but was blocked by the defensive barrier activated by the skill and returned ineffective.
“Oh my.”
Let’s look up at the upper part of the sky that has entered deep inside.
The belly of the blade spider was clearly visible, full of wrinkles and hairs, not to mention the stench.
It was a disgusting scene that I absolutely did not want to see unless I had to see it.
“I’ll pierce through it!”
Sang-Hyeon, who had gripped the Maddening Sword with all his might, prepared to swing the sword upward with all his might.
Once you enter the embrace of the blade spider, you cannot leave without seeing the end.
The eight legs of a blade spider are faster and more nimble than you might think.
Even for Sang-Hyeon, it wasn’t that difficult to become a well-sliced piece of meat.
Right then.
Woohoo!
Even though Sang-Hyeon hadn’t attacked yet, a strange sound came from the blade spider.
It was definitely the sound you would hear if you broke a joint. Not just a little bit, but a full-on break!
The next moment.
“… … !”
Sang-Hyeon could see it.
The sight of a blade spider deliberately breaking one of its legs completely and thrusting its blade towards the stomach.
Just like there was no back for Sang-Hyeon.
The guy was the same.
Sparks of life and death were flying.
