Level Up

Ryan and the heat of the mines did not conceal their tension as they looked at those gathered in front of the giant rock vault.

It was the same with the others who gathered there.

Everyone noticed each other and did not slow down their guard.

“I never thought there'd be so many. ”

“I know. I thought there would be others besides us.... ”

Ryan and the heat of the light looked around.

There were nearly 100 people. The problem was that only half of them were human.

‘Besides humans. Where the hell did they come from? ’

They must have been stripped of their magic, so they must have been players. But I couldn't figure out where it came from.

‘You would never come from Earth. ’

They were probably from the other side of the lake. No, I'm sure you will.

This side of the lake was mostly checked by two people.

I was confident that the secret to leveling up so quickly was working hard and digging deep enough to be right here in Whitehall.

No one lives here.

When I saw the faces of the gatherers, there were many who had the face of the beast. Although I stood like a human, my body was more like a beast than a human.

Some do not look like animals, but they are close to humans. Nevertheless, it did not look human.

There were huge people with muscles all over their bodies, and they were unbelievably large, even if they were giants.

How can those who are over three meters tall be considered human?

And there were beautiful people who were not like humans. But that wasn't why they weren't human. They had white wings on their backs.

Like an angel.

And similarly, there was another class of beautiful people who were not like humans. They were wearing tails.

Like a demon.

In fact, the most heterogeneous people here were Ryan and the heat of the light.

That's why everyone was most concerned about you.

The first to step forward was the Giants.

The giant man stepped forward, twitching his muscles all over his body, looking around and looking at the rock vault.

“First... I'm going to smash that safe." Any objections? ”

No one stepped up. The Giant man nods and approaches the vault.

Their equipment was taken from them while they were trapped. Some of them were quite important.

The Giant Man clenches his fist tightly.

Whoo-hoo!

His fist gathers enormous magical power. If you get hit by one of those, you're really going to score. I felt tremendous strength.

“Ahhhh!”

The Giant man's fist slams straight into the rock vault.

Kwaaah!

Even with the Giant's powerful fists and destructive power, the Vault of Rock hasn't shut down.

The Giants continued to punch each other in succession.

Boom, boom, boom! Boom!

However, no matter how much I hit him, the safe was intact.

Eventually, the giant, with a blushing face, retreated.

Then the woman with the devil's tail steps forward.

“This is not a safe that can be broken by force. ”

The Devil Woman approaches the vault, tucking her face close and looking carefully at it.

“I feel a strange magical power. This…… seems to be the magical power of space. ”

“So what? ”

The Giant Man cools his face and asks.

The Devil Woman smiles and raises a finger to explain.

“No matter how hard you hit this place, the power doesn't reach the vault. ”

The Giant Man's face reappears. So you're saying he made a fool of himself.

“Then how do I break it? Isn't space magic something you just need to get rid of? ”

The Devil Woman shakes her head.

“I just don't think we can do that. It's very complicated. It's kind of a subspace thing. ”

“Sub-space……. ”

Everyone swallowed the sound of the word subspace.

Everyone knows what subspace looks like. It was common sense for them that no one could open it except the owner if security was properly established.

“So what do we do? Apparently there aren't any Shadow Humans left... ”

“I can't give up like this. They took our tribe's most important treasure! ”

“But this is sub-space...... ”

The desperate atmosphere weighs heavily on the left.

Ryan and his heat of discovery peer into each other's eyes.

“Damn, I'm so frustrated that I can't understand you. ”

“I can't seem to get that open from the atmosphere. ”

“You know what? There should be our gear. ”

While I was doing that, someone came up to me. You turn Ryan and the heat of the light to see someone approaching. It was the same as expected.

“Where have you been so late? ”

Ryan grumbles. Of course, I didn't ask Hyun-seok.

With the emergence of Hyun-seok, all eyes in the intestine came together. But soon I fell again.

He thought he was just one of those people who had been trapped on this island.

Hyun-Seok approached the vault without anyone's consent. Of course, no one stopped him.

“Hmm...... This is a different structure. ”

The structure was different from the subspace I just opened. The subspace I just opened was much more complex and difficult to open.

Compared to that, it was a child's prank.

Hyun-seok turns around and sees the faces of the people gathered here.

The levels were all similar. It seemed that no matter how long it took, there was a limit to level up through Magical Power Snatching.

246 is the limit. ’

Among them, the highest level was 246, and the highest number was 246.

More than 70 people were level 246, and the rest were differentially lowered, with the lowest being Ryan and the heat of light at level 242.

It looks like everyone's from beyond the lake. The world beyond the lake is clearly much wider than this one.

‘Maybe…… it's connected to your Whitehall? ’

I could have. I've never fully explored Whitehall in a Quince-class dungeon.

Even though the three Whitehall worlds are connected, it's no wonder.

However, I thought that Hyundai would not be connected in a simple way.

Anyway, figuring out the rock vault is quick. Hyun-seok was able to open this vault at any time.

All that was left was what to do with the people here.

If you think of greed in front of you, you must kill them all. When you open this safe, they'll come running looking for their stuff.

But if you're thinking of something bigger, you shouldn't. We need to talk calmly about our work.

If you think the dungeon is just a hunting ground out of nowhere, you can treat it all as if you didn't think much about it. But I knew very well that was not the case.

“Can anyone open this safe? ”

Everyone shakes their heads at the question of stone.

And the eyes of Ryan and the heat of the light curled up. It's because I didn't think Hyun-seok could speak to them.

Who the hell is this guy? ’

How the hell did you learn that? ’

They gazed at the stone while swallowing dry saliva.

Hyun-seok glanced at the left and said.

“Anybody? Then I guess we'll just have to throw whatever's in this vault away. ”

Again, no one opened their mouths. However, no one seemed to think to leave the contents of the vault behind.

Then the giants roar.

“We'll move this safe. Once we get it out of here, we'll figure something out. ”

Hyun-seok smiled and moved aside.

This vault can never be moved. The subspace coordinates themselves are fixed.

Sub-spaces with fixed coordinates can further enhance security, so they won't be able to open it. Of course I can't move him.

Giants didn't have to use their strength. The Demon Woman who left earlier went out again.

“You think I didn't check that, too? It's a fixed subspace. It's impossible to move. And... it won't be easy for anyone to open it. ”

The Devil Woman's expression darkens.

“The security of the fixed subspace is terrible. It's not much of a mobile subspace. ”

The giants look away with a shy look on their faces.

Then the Devil Woman glares up at the skyscraper.

“You...... are you sure you want to do that? By any chance...... can you open this safe? ”

Hyun-seok glanced at the left instead of answering. Then he looked at the Devil Woman and said,

“I don't think there's any reason to open it. ”

“I beg your pardon?”

He stepped back rather than holding back. The Devil Woman insists on pursuing such a stroke.

“You can open that. Right?"

“I don't know.”

The reaction of the stone was bland. Others didn't.

They seem convinced that Hyun-seok can open this vault.

Everyone moved and heavily surrounded the marble.

Hyun-seok smiled at them like that.

“What if I can open it? Do I have to open it? Why would I do that? I don't have any of my stuff in there. ”

The Giant Man steps forward. He grunts with his hands.

“If you don't open it, you're gonna get in trouble. ”

Hyun-seok laughed.

“Threaten?"

“Whatever you want. But you're gonna have to open that. ”

The stone shakes its head and releases its neck. And she bursts her magic.

“Well, I don't think I need to open it. ”

Everyone was startled by the fierce aura of the magic of the stone, and they withdrew back.

Hyun-Seok looked around and said.

“Who the hell cleaned up the Shadow Man on this island now? ”

Hyundai pointed his finger at the vault.

“Is that you over there with the loot? Or……. ”

Hyunseok pointed at himself with his thumb this time.

“Do I have nothing to do with that vault? ”

The silence settles heavily. Everyone took a serious look at Hyun-seok's eyes.

I told you this far and you showed me this power, but if you don't, you're an idiot.

There is a man in front of you who has eliminated all the Shadow Man on the island.

I don't know what else, but if you kill the Shadow King, no one here will be able to touch you.

“What... what the hell are you doing to help us?" ”

This time, a woman with white wings stepped forward and sadly asked.

Her expression, eyes, and atmosphere were filled with loveliness. Perhaps it was her weapon.

But it was also a weapon that did not work at all for Hyundai.

I finally got the story where I wanted it to go. Hyun-seok knew the surest way to deal with them.

All this happened for the future, just in case.

“I'll open the safe. You guys take care of your own stuff. Then you hand over the items I designate. Easy, huh? ”

Everyone's face was stiff. It was easy and difficult. What if the item you designated was something that could never be handed over?

“Is it hard?”

Hyun-seok looked around the seat and asked. But everyone nodded.

“I will. ”

“Do you promise?”

“I promise.”

The answer comes from one person, but everyone nods. It meant everyone promised.

Hyun-seok had already known through his mind that they were so thorough about their promises.

Once you've made your promise, you can assume you've done everything you planned.

Hyun-seok approached the vault. Then I put a special magic pattern on my hand and grabbed the handle of the vault door.

Everyone's eyes widen in horror.

So far, no one has ever held the handle of that vault. I had to squeeze the air as if I had never been able to catch it.

But Hyun-seok grabbed it so naturally. Like a vault with no devices, no magic powers.

The opening was much simpler. Just pull and the door opens.

“You're hopeless.”

That came from someone's mouth. Everyone feels the same way.

But most of them knew. It's hard to do that.

That's impossible unless you take down the security of the vault.

When the vault door opens, the stone stands back. Then everyone went into the Urgh vault.

The vault was a giant warehouse space. I could find all of my equipment and stuff there.

Once everyone came out looking for their stuff, but the next thing you know, you don't look so bright.

Hyun-seok looked around at those who were restless like poop-poor dogs and gave him a look at one of their things.

Everyone was furious and frowned back.

It's not that Hyun-seok asked for anything, but what he just looked at should never be taken away.

It was a very important treasure to their clan.

“If I asked you for it, you'd give it to me, right? ”

No one answered. But you have to. That's the promise. Everyone's face darkens.

I opened the safe and looked for something, but I felt like I had fallen further down.

“Why don't you make a promise instead of not taking it? ”

Everyone's face lit up. There is hope. I thought I would accept whatever promise was made. Without exception.

“Later when I ask, whatever it is, it's a tribal honor. ”

The silence subsided for a while. It was such a heavy promise. But it was better than taking the family treasure.

“What the…… when are you going to ask me? ”

“I don't know about that. Maybe I won't. I just...... want to buy an insurance policy. Are you feeling better now? ”

Everyone nods.

“That's it... ”

Hyun-seok received their exact promise. I left that on paper, too.

Everyone complained about leaving the document as well, but they wrote the document with a relatively bright face.

And they got off the island.

Probably won't come back this way.

Hyun-seok finally reaches out his hand, looking at the heat of the light and Ryan. And he laughed.

He shakes his head and puts one bracelet into the stone's hand.

I had already spoken to Ryan, so I was able to give it to him without any friction or worry.

The third token fell into the hand of the stone.

The End
