Published at 6th of September 2023 05:56:40 AM

. 5th floor, mental ward (1)

[A gift from Caladium Kingdom has arrived.]

[Are you sure you want to?]

A blinking golden status window.

'If it's the Kingdom of Caladium... .'

An earthquake occurred in Jinhyuk's pupil.

A country belonging to the 'Empire' that is hostile to the Moorim.

Because one of them was the Caladium Kingdom.

'Did these guys even start moving?'

I thought that someday there would be a connection. I didn't expect it to move so quickly.

Well, new variables have emerged that can break the tight balance. I can't help but be greedy.

At the same time, it also meant that the situation was turning so urgently that the empire drenched in aristocracy could lose its pride.

'The Moorim and the Empire side as well. To change the power composition of the tower, they are trying to preempt the players who can see the cotyledon.'

What is it like to come with a lot of presents? Is it pretty cute?

Jin-hyeok, who smiled bitterly, looked at the gift.

It's time to check the distribution of those who dominate the middle floors of the tower.

T-tiring!

[You have acquired the skill 'A hazy body odor'.]

[A hazy body odor]

Acquisition Difficulty: F

Description: It is a skill that can erase not only your own smell and breath, but also the slight vibration of air. When used, even wild animals can keep you from noticing where you are hiding. (Time limit: 3 seconds, when used 3 times, a 24 hour cooldown is required.)

[The system's deterrence is partially relaxed due to the patronage of higher powers.]

If it was on another floor... .

This skill would have ended at the 'useful' level.

This is because the activation time was so short and the number of times was limited.

However, in a situation where they had to escape through crazy patients and named monsters, the evaluation was completely different.

'As long as the unique abilities and skills are sealed. Skills that used to be F-class have more value than S-class.'

It's like earning three more lives.

If it's enough to give me this as a gift, even while violating the tower's restrictions... .

It seems like he's really greedy for quite a bit.

'Let's use the skill as a thank you.'

There is no reason to refuse to give it away for free to win favor.

And there is no need to feel burdened with the gift.

'I just walk a tightrope among the various factions, and I just need to suck up all the honey called honey.'

It's a push-pull party that burns your opponent's longing.

That is the best position to take in the future.

great.

Now that I've acquired strong skills, let's stop.

Jinhyuk opened the gate to the psychiatric ward.

right moment.

huuuuuuoooooooooooooooooooo

[You have selected the 5th floor 'psychiatric ward'.]

[Your unique abilities and skills are sealed.]

[There is only one rule, escape the ward alive.]

A status window indicating the start of a new floor appeared.

At the same time, Jinhyuk's consciousness became blurred.

damp air.

The stench of blood and excrement.

A field of vision that can't see even an inch ahead.

All of this was speaking.

The fact that he is in a psychiatric ward boasting the worst chance of survival.

T-tiring!

[Ancient Dragon. One of the skills is unlocked by the Macedrian Grimoire!]

[You can use 'Eyes of Gluttony'!]

As expected, a status window appeared.

However, the weak 'eye' was one of the skills that could most easily escape the system's constraints.

'That's why I picked this book from the Great Library of Magic.'

by the way.

'Things are second to none, no matter how much I smell, I can't get used to it. Adaptation.'

Jinhyuk frowned and shook his head.

right then

Ugh...

It's terribly dark. Hey! This is the starting point, isn't it?

Damn, why is this place like this again?

Other people's voices could be heard from Jinhyuk's side.

Anyone who can light a fire?

It can't be because all abilities are sealed. It's like going back to the original village. This.

Until now, after using all kinds of abilities, everything disappeared out of the blue, so there is no choice but to do so.

If modern people could not use electricity, it would be like this.

Huh? There's something in your pocket!

pocket?

Yeah. This feels like...

chakag!

Whoops!

A small flame appeared in the dark room with the sound of a lighter.

The five men and women could barely recognize each other's faces.

Western men and women and Asian women. Finally, a black woman.

'and me.'

There were five in total.

Huh. I'm going to live here for a while. If I had known that the environment would be like this, I would have chosen another place.

Um? Do I have something in my pocket?

Me too.

Mine is like a key.

Survival items given at random.

Everyone in the room quickly checked their pockets.

Of course, Jinhyuk was the first to check which item was given.

'It's a ballpoint pen... .'

It is a monami ballpoint pen commonly found in offices.

If it were someone else, I would have cursed at you for giving me something useless.

Jinhyuk looked at the pointed tip of the pen and nodded.

'not bad.'

A true deceased does not blame Tempal.

Just use what you have and get the most out of it.

by the way.

'Only newbies have gathered.'

From the first reaction to the ability to cope with the situation.

Everything was awkward.

It must mean that you have no experience in clearing the psychiatric ward.

In the past, I would have taken newbies who shiver like chicks with me.

But now there was no reason for that.

Because this wasn't a game to laugh and enjoy.

I think we'll have to get through it on our own. Has anyone seen you come here?

A large western man opened his mouth.

I tried it once, but it was a long time ago...

"At first, I heard that the 5th floor structure and items changed every time, so the experience of playing was meaningless."

That's why I chose this route. The mine was so popular that it closed quickly.

Everyone came here for their own reasons.

It was difficult for Jinhyuk to understand any of these reasons.

"I hit a goal."

Let's talk slowly and then move on.

Other people were constantly talking, but Jinhyuk's eyes were on the door.

'I turned on the lighter, so it's time to show up... .'

When the light is turned on, vision is not the only thing you get.

As soon as the player looks ahead through the fire, even those in this ward can see the players' existence from beyond.

right at that moment.

jerk. jerk.

A faint sound of footsteps was heard.

The rest of the people were raising their voices, so they did not realize the incident.

Everyone is just expressing their opinions in order to survive in the current situation.

Jerk! Jerk! Jerk!

The footsteps grew louder.

Now even those in the room could hear it.

What, what, what is this sound?

Lock the door! Lock the door first!

Wow!

The wooden door was closed.

almost at the same time.

bang! bang! bang! bang!

The door swung back and forth frantically.

Here! It's in here!

Clothes!

Burn them all! Purify them by burning them all!

Blood of the heathen!

I'll tear you to death!

A voice filled with madness rang out.

Hey!

Damn it. Are you here already?

You have to get out of here right now. You can't last long with a door like that!

The people who were once patients here have lost their humanity.

After that, he sacrifices himself to an unknown god and spends his days filled with blood and madness.

Now you have two options left.

fight or run away. You have to choose one of them.

But the people here had no option to fight.

How do you fight when you can't use your abilities?

have to run away

betimes.

Hurry before your body is shredded or burned alive!

Papa, we need to find a way out!

The big man looked around frantically.

pounding! pounding! pounding!

My heart was beating fast and my breathing was rapid.

People's voices got louder.

bang! bang! bang! Kagak! Pop!

Wood shards were thrown out in all directions.

A blade with flesh on it could be seen through the cracks.

no time now

After a little, a little while, the door will be smashed.

at that time.

Here! This way!

A black woman pointed to the ceiling and shouted.

it's a vent

If you go up, you can live. At least you don't have to die like a cornered rat.

Hurry!

Damn it. Hurry... Hurry up!

The people who took the vent cover off started climbing up like crazy.

kwaang! Pop!

Now there was a gap the size of a child's fist.

Through the door, red eyes could be seen.

Put it up! Bring me up too! Come on!

Supporting them from below and pulling them from above, they left the room one by one.

By the way.

What are you doing? You! Without holding hands quickly!

Jinhyuk, who is the last one to turn, just stands there. There seemed to be no intention of going to the vent.

Damn. Throw it away! I can't even take care of a man who wants to die!

That's right. Let's go.

Sheesh!

The man clicked his tongue.

He looked at Jinhyuk as if he was frustrated, but it was only for a short time.

Chunkyung!

The vent's lid was closed.

Seal of skills and unique abilities.

With these two facts alone, the fear felt by the players reached an extreme.

However.

'I don't know what I'm going to do in the future because I'm afraid of not having the ability.'

Competence is only an auxiliary role.

How many hellish things will happen in the future, but does it start demonstrating just by sealing some abilities?

'That's only for fanatics.'

It was possible to use the 'fuzzy body odor' received from Caladium Kingdom, but it was a skill that was too precious to use here.

Jinhyuk held the ballpoint pen in reverse.

chakag!

The tip of the pen came out with a familiar sound.

And at that very moment.

Aww!

The door smashed, and half-naked men entered.

The number is about thirty.

It's quite grotesque with its overturned eyes and a lot of blood covered in it.

Kill it!

Cut off your limbs!

God wants his blood!

A rusty sickle and a skewered kitchen knife flew towards Jinhyuk.

"I've been curious about it for a long time."

There is one question that I couldn't answer when they were AI.

I wonder if even fanatics can feel the fear.

Human nature hidden in front of madness and blindness.

How long will I be able to use that mask?

I wanted to check it out.

With those words, Jinhyuk's body disappeared like smoke.

puck!

Gagging?

A ballpoint pen digging into the temple of the man in front.

A thin stream of blood spurted from the wound.

If you want to take advantage of scale, you shouldn't have come to a narrow entrance.

What if there are a lot of people?

There are at most two Grand Masters who can come in head-on.

Moreover, a sickle or a long skewer that is difficult to wield in such a narrow place is a negative factor in fighting.

Jinhyuk pulled out a ballpoint pen and flew towards the second target.

puck! Whoops!

Eyes, soft water (延髓). uvula.

Even if you couldn't pierce through the bones, there were plenty of vital points you could aim for.

Aww!

Aww!

A terrible scream rang out.

A cold blow with no ejaculation in his hand.

In an instant, more than half of them turned into cold corpses.

" "

" "

The ferocious momentum was completely broken.

I had no choice but to do so.

The difference in power between the two is completely different.

The fanatics who came to kill the players were rather overwhelmed by the opposing atrocities.

What are you doing? Is it over already?

Jinhyuk held out a ballpoint pen dripping with blood.

But right then.

Aww!

With a roar, one wall collapsed.
