SSS-Class Ranker Return

Chapter 180

Purification Orb (1)

coo coo coo coo. Fu Hook.

Diggdog, who climbed almost vertically, finally reached the top.

Although he didn’t even activate the combination skill ‘Legendary Rider’, Diggdog’s movement ability was good enough.

It didn’t take long for him to succeed in his first hurdle, the entry into the ruins.

“… … uh ”

However, Rokhan’s expression on the outside was not as good as it was. He thought of the entrance to the ruins, but he had entered the ruins.

where the hell is this

As if answering a brief thought, the system displayed a notification.

[You have entered the ancient ruins, the remains of the life-takers.][Experience gained for 3 days is increased by 30% as an initial entry bonus.][The drop rate is increased by 30% for 3 days as a bonus for the first entry.][The initial entry bonus is enhanced by 10% due to the effect of the title ‘Pioneer’.]

The first entry bonus was nice, but somehow it felt strange. I immediately opened the status window to check something.

“You hit the goal.”

His vitality was declining.

It wasn’t very fast, but I could tell it was because it was Rokhan himself.

I was receiving several basic life regeneration effects, so this was enough, but if it was a normal being, it was an effect that was troublesome enough to get a potion right away.

“I must go to the deepest place first… … .”

It was a signpost as it happened. He had no choice but to clear the dungeon and escape from this effect.

But the problem was that he didn’t know where this place was because he had entered the dungeon as if to break into it. I couldn’t even get the direction right.

If you are unlucky, you may end up going out instead of going into the center.

It is a difficult situation for a Lokan who is not very confident in finding a way.

He was forced to activate one ability.

“Summon assistant, guide.”

Now that it has been greatly strengthened, it is possible to achieve a large increase in combat power by using clone summons, but there is no way at this time. I canceled Diggdog’s summons and first summoned a white bone horse.

“Which one?”

“This is it.”

After receiving directions from a guide-type assistant, he picked up him and started running through the dungeon passage with all his might.

“Runaway tank.”

The rush was unstoppable.

As they entered, monsters that looked like zombies appeared, but Lokan responded simply by slamming it, bombarding it, or striking it directly in the neck, and forcibly pierced the path.

Hey!

“jump!”

Whoops!

The thing that stopped the run was when the trap was triggered. A large, large blade flew across the white horse’s body.

Lokan used a jump to dodge it, but the White Horse couldn’t.

[The brown horse has been forcibly reverse-summoned. It cannot be re-summoned for the next 1 hour.]“Come here.”

But there was no reason to be so upset. In the first place, the reason I summoned the white horse, not the sacral horse, was because I was afraid that something like this would happen.

Lokan wielded his assistant in one arm and exerted his power.

“Wheel Wind!”

Knock, Knock, Knock. Pick it up! Damn it!

The zombies that followed were egged and the large blade that had cut the white horse was destroyed. If Rokhan had great power, it was possible enough, but Rokhan felt something strange.

‘Too weak.’

[Ancient Zombie whose life was exploited][Lv 301]

Judging from the level of the zombies, the ancient ruins, the remains of those who take lives, were level 300 and above the master level.

Unless there is a special method like Lokan, it was not easy to reach the ruins right away, so the level of the monsters that appear must also be quite high, but this was easy even if it was easy.

Right now, there was no one who could properly block even the wheel wind, and there was no way he was even trying to fight against it by using some powerful skill.

If you used Rise of the Wind or Berserk, it’s just a combination skill, isn’t it?

I couldn’t stop my doubts, but I had to go inside first. In order to make the most of the guide until another fork in the road appears.

Even at this moment, the guide’s vitality was declining.

“Whick! The one who rides the legend!”

Lokan immediately summoned the Sacral Demon.

He strengthened it and turned it into a red tomato.

A charge skill that reached those who rode legends. If this is the case, it will be possible to break through the same traps as before, using their charge and defense power.

Again, the run began.

“charge! Runaway tank!”

Once the traps started appearing, they suddenly appeared after that.

But this time the response was different.

Some of the trap effects were avoided by Enemy Toma, and when it felt dangerous, Lokan pushed it away using a dash-type skill or threw a battle ax to destroy it one step earlier.

Nothing could stop Rokhan.

“Huh ”

It was another terrain that greeted Lokan after pushing it for a while.

The passage-like terrain is over and a huge pit opens his mouth towards him.

“Sheesh, cancel the summons. Kai!”

〻!

I would jump at any distance, but the distance between the pits was too far so that even a red tomato could not do it.

Reluctantly, Lokan, who reverse-summoned Red Toma, immediately summoned Kai. He climbed on Kai’s gigantic back and looked down the pit.

“What is all that?”

Inside a pit covered with abyss-like darkness. Using the power of night vision to examine the interior, Rokhan’s expression softened. It is infested with zombies like parasites.

The number of zombies they’ve been dealing with so far was incomparable.

At least a few hundred, perhaps a thousand or more zombies were struggling with open eyes looking for the living.

woo woo.

“Oh”

While making a slightly tired expression on his face, something strange happened at the bottom of the pit. A certain energy began to explode from the zombies’ mouths all at once.

It was the same green color as the power of corruption, but the aura I felt was a little different. If the power of corruption is a light that desires destruction and destruction, is that like a light longing for something?

“Kai!”

Lokan skillfully moved Kai, which led to sympathy, to avoid the bombardment of light.

She didn’t know what it was, but she decided that there was nothing good to touch.

Paang Paang Paang.

The green shells that had deflected Lokan soon collided with the ceiling and were scattered.

‘I don’t have any physical power.’

With that, Rokhan was able to grasp the nature of the attack.

no physical power

There is a possibility that the ceiling here is an object with the indestructible option, but once it was hit by that bombardment, it was not destroyed.

Then, there were two things that could be inferred. It’s a curse type, or an ability that deals damage in other ways.

There was something suspicious, so Lokan immediately started attacking.

“Old, eat!”

“Aww!”

Pyung, Pyung.

It was none other than a guide assistant that Lokan threw at the green bombardment again.

He was already running out of time, so he decided that even if he was summoned back, it would not mean much.

“Right.”

The guide who was thrown as prey did not have any special air evasion ability, so it had to be the target of concentrated bombardment.

And Lokan, who opened the assistant’s status window and checked, was able to figure out the identity of the bombardment.

“It was an exploitation of life force.”

The true nature of the bombardment was exploitation of vitality.

A special ability that steals the target’s life and adds it to the caster. It was similar to the special effect given to the dungeon itself, but it was a kind that could steal a lot of life in a little bit more time.

If Rokan had fallen in there without knowing what it was, if he had tried to defend without knowing the true nature of the bombardment, he would have died without knowing the English word because it inflicted definite damage.

However, since he found out his identity, he had no intention of being harmed.

“Kai, let’s go!”

〻!

Kai with Lokan on changed direction and fell down the pit. I could ride Kai like this and go over the broken road, but this was a good opportunity.

“Red Meteor!”

Kuwagwagwagwang!

Lokan, who controlled Kai to avoid a single bombardment, fell as a meteor.

The zombies could not respond to the too fast fall speed and were crushed.

“Wheel Wind!”

Continued wheel wind!

In an instant, the chain stretched to the maximum distance was pulled taut, destroying all beings within range.

[The power of the Soul Collector binds the soul.][Current number of souls collected: 113 / 10,000]

The reason Lokan dared to jump into the pit was to collect souls.With the combat power of the zombies already experienced while breaking through the road, with the condition that such a number has been gathered, how can they not rush in?

Nearly 100 zombies were ripped apart in an instant, and their souls were sucked in at random.

If you plan to summon the Soul Corps in the future, you might have to pay attention to the type of monster you are hunting, but it was important to fill in the number somehow because Lokan was aiming for a higher level than that, Transcendental Awakening.

“Wow!”

However, it was impossible to end all zombies by that alone. Instead of sweeping away the surroundings, a perfect environment was created to bombard Lokan.

A circular vacant lot was created around Lokan, and the zombies outside the radius opened their mouths at once and fired a beam of life exploitation.

“huh! Frenzy manifestation!”

Lokan’s response was simple.

Frenzy realization!

When I used a master skill that had immortality for the duration, it just tickled me even when I was hit by the life-exploiting rays they shoot.

“bombing! Chain of annihilation! Wheel Wind!”

Then it was simple. It was enough to destroy them using all the skills he had.

With its overwhelming power, the zombies were crushed like tofu, and no matter how much life was recovered with the ray of life exploitation, they were crushed and destroyed in front of the destructive force that could not be sustained.

‘What is this ‘

So Rokhan crushed them, but he still felt something uncomfortable. Because it broke so easily.

There were many cases where I smashed my head to see if it could be regenerated, but it doesn’t feel dull at all and it bursts like a pudding.

It must be because Rokhan’s power is great, but his appearance was heterogeneous.

It’s like, or certainly, these guys didn’t have a ‘skull’. I was curious as to how it was maintaining its shape.

‘If they were weak-minded, they would spit while fighting.’

Is it because of that? The devastation that Lokan had created was truly tragic.

It was a grotesque sight enough to leave an impression on anyone to see a whopping 1,000 zombies spread out in flesh.

“Life Charge.”

Having dealt with all the zombies, Lokan quickly recharged the life force that had dropped to 0 while resisting the rays of life exploitation and used the expensive potions he had.

He was afraid that they would respawn, so he rode a Kai and sat on a broken road, waiting for the cooldown of the manifestation of the storm.

Because it was made with a master skill and loaded with a number of skill books that can reduce the cooldown and aftereffects, the cooldown of Rise of the Wind was only 1 hour.

Thanks to that, which is also the reason why Rise of the Wind is inevitable to become a top-notch master skill, he regained his perfect condition and set out on the road again.

‘I wish I had something like this more often.’

A thousand souls in one battle. If that’s the case, isn’t that saying that transcendental awakening is possible if you spin around 10 times?

So Rokhan moved forward with a bit of anticipation, but unfortunately, such a pit never reappeared.

[Heart-Eating Maw][Lv 303][Vampiric Slime][Lv 300][Giant Plant that Sucks Life] [Lv 305]

Instead, various monsters other than zombies appeared.

They’re the same level, but they’re taking life in different ways.

Had it not been for Rokhan, he would have been a very difficult opponent, but his opponent was very bad.

Rokhan smashed them horribly without giving them a chance to stick. Using the imprinting effect of his blood, he rather absorbed his life force.

The amount of vitality that was basically taken away increased as we entered the depths of the ruins, but thanks to the monsters that appeared like lunch boxes, we were able to reach the center with almost no consumption of vitality.

“Mr. … .”

And as soon as he got to the boss room, swear words came out of Lokan’s mouth.
