Reincarnator
< 82. District 5, Old Blue Zone (2) >
Cough.
'You've got ice on you.'
Hansoo, who was looking around the elevator, muttered.
"Raise the walls higher! You'll get tired when it collapses!"
"We have to stop the Can-Kion invasion, so hit the defenses harder below!"
"Make sure your residence is well separated! Mixing makes it hard to check!"
Travelers from all over were rebuilding the city by elevators.
Barricade, rebuild residential areas and heal wounds.
There was so much work to be done that most of them were busy moving without any rest, but everyone's expression was lively.
I had to.
Most of the survivors suffered to die under the infants who represented them as twelve lords.
Their livestock lives under them are over.
I got my freedom back and I got my chance.
Everyone had to look good.
But ironically, there was sadness and regret on that lively face.
When I found peace, I remembered the comrades and family who were killed by them.
There was bitterness in the faces of Karhal and Enkidu who saw their faces.
'... I could have saved more if I'd just rushed it a little bit.'
Karjal and Enkidu, however, soon shrugged their heads.
It is now that we have fixed it.
Now, the four zones form a city with a base like the bottom, one, two and three zones.
There are still important issues.
Karjal looks down and asks, looking at Hansoo.
"What are you going to do with the Transcendent?"
Karjal asked.
As you know, Sections 1, 2 and 3 below purposefully control the Transcenders without creating them.
If we want to create a Transcendent in a region where the amount of crystals per monster in Abyss is small, we need to pour out the same amount of crystals that hundreds of thousands of people can use to climb the elevator.
It was hard to control when the Transcendent was born.
It is the right decision to send an unmanned staircase up to the top where more crystals can be obtained from the tribe from which the crystals are made.
But things are different now.
Once we get to the green zone, we can collect the crystals and create a Transcendent, but we know the situation up there is spinning erratically.
'If I don't make it, I won't have enough strength.... I think we're gonna be assholes again.'
Karhal frowns.
Hansoo smiled.
"Let's start with the upper region. Haven't you all been there once?"
Kiriel, Enkidou and Karhal nod.
Because it was like he said.
'... yes. I was pushed back then.'
Karhal opens his mouth after taking a deep breath, recalling the memory of running back down.
"Let's go up."
...............................
Kuaang!
"You crazy bastards!"
The man who was staying on the 3rd floor of Zone 4, a strong man, screamed and stopped the attack that hit him.
At first, when two women and four men came up on the elevator, they asked, "What kind of bread is this?"
Four of them looked familiar.
They were downstairs, kids who ate the second floor and bowed.
And the other two, the ones who came up before, offered themselves a bunch of nonsense.
I can remember the name.
Karhar and Enkido.
< If you help us, we can rebuild order in this world! >
Those bastards who ran back downstairs after being attacked by themselves while talking crazy nonsense.
It was close, but it wasn't hard to win.
The monsters upstairs were more powerful than the ones downstairs that gave us more crystals, and their food efficiency was relatively high.
The lazy bastards downstairs thought that they were normal to win, and that the gap between then and now would have been wider.
But what is this?
Kuaang!
A strong man felt the sound of Karjal beating himself up and down his bones, and his teeth snapped.
"Shit... that's crazy." I need to be stronger! '
Even six of them.
What was even more ridiculous was that five of the six were not using their hands.
I used to win at Two-Times, but now it's a one-on-one situation.
A man who didn't know that Karhal and Enkidou had eaten the crystals from ar-Roa, changed his teeth.
'Damn it... I can't lose!'
You can't win against six if you can't win at all.
But I can't let you get caught like this.
I realized the moment I saw those two who ruled on the second floor with their miserable faces wrapped in red energy all over their bodies.
The moment you get caught, you're in the same boat.
No, back there before that.
The way a man looks at himself.
The gaze of the man who wrapped red energy around his body and hammered was more problematic.
I was afraid of the look in his eyes that was so insignificant.
If someone with that kind of eye had the authority to rule over his life, he had a good idea how to use it and throw it away.
But at the same time, I was able to get a hint.
That look in his eyes is getting softer when he looks at Karhal, the man before him.
I'm taking him hostage! '
Kuaang!
Realizing that Karhal was his only hope, paradoxically, he threw himself out and started pushing Karhal like crazy.
Quadruple!
Karjal bites his teeth as he gives up his left arm and sees the power to swing his sword at his heart.
Kiriel shouts aloud at Karjal.
"Can I help you?"
Karhar yells at the opponent as he speaks.
"Don't interrupt! I... do it!"
Kuaang!
'This…. Son of a bitch! I can't lose to a bastard like you twice!'
Kuaang!
Earlier, Karhal muttered, recalling the memory of his ascent to the third floor.
If you go up from Zone 1 to Zone 2, and then from Zone 2 to Zone 3, you will never go down again.
The subdivided floors within the same zone can go up and down as much as they need to supply enough crystals.
Karhal and Enkidu were also transcendental fighters, and had gone upstairs to look for a few traces just in case.
It was too late then, of course.
While they were searching for Hansoo, the ones who became transcendental more quickly became stronger than themselves by eating monsters upstairs.
He defeated those who sought help just as he proved that even the same star makes a difference.
Had it not been for the preliminary amendment, he would not have been able to run away and put his head down.
'Bastards. Because of you!'
Kuaaaaang!
Kyrial looks sad to see Karjal punching the target with his shoulder, giving up his left arm.
That was literally a hard life.
There's no need to waste time like this if you or Hansoo do.
I can smash them to pieces.
Tsutztsu.
'At least he's on the third floor.'
After reading the trail near the elevator, Cyril looks sad at Karhal in a threatened fight and opens his mouth to Hansu.
"Don't I need to use my hands?"
Hansoo shakes his head at Kiriel's words.
"Leave it. This district... needs a king." "
Kuaaaaang!
Hansoo mutters, watching Karjal as he relentlessly smashes his opponent while bleeding all over his body.
Because I knew what Karjal was up to.
'... I'll stay here. So this is it.'
And that fight over there, that's entitlement.
The authority that others have established is a target of ridicule and ridicule.
Only he who fights and takes it and ascends by his own power deserves to be king.
So I'm not helping.
'And... I don't think I need your help.'
At first, I was worried.
I don't think I can do what I have to do to help my old colleagues.
So Hansoo reflected to himself.
I think you underestimated them.
"Die, motherfucker!"
Kuaaaaang!
"Ahhhh!"
'Excellent, really.'
Karjal, who bled all over his body and dumped the strongman to the ground, laughed a little.
.................................
Shit! Shit!
"These bastards. Get in line!"
After repeating the treatment and recovery, Karhal, who had defeated all of District 4, shouted with a loud bang at their heads.
Second floor to seventh floor.
The number of transcendental fighters in total is nine.
Seeing a smaller number than you think, Enkidu mutters in surprise.
"... less than I expected. I thought there'd be more."
Even in the same 4 zones, the efficiency increases with the upward direction.
Hunting or feeding.
The amount of crystals that come out will vary.
Hansoo shrugged.
"That's it. I want to go up when I get to 2-star."
"Hmm? Wouldn't it be better to stay here?"
Enkidu asked with a surprised expression.
Wouldn't you rather be king of District 4 than go up there and fight bloody?
Those who chose food in the first place chose stability over risky rapid growth.
If they're horny, they're right to stay here.
Enkidou asks with a face he doesn't understand, but Kiriel looks like he understands right away.
because he knew what it felt like to be in 2-star.
"Ah…"
From the moment I got to the 2nd star, there was a feeling of anxiety and pain of the whole body that was tingling.
As if this is not where you belong.
If this were anything other than normal, if he didn't want to see Hansoo, he would have already gone up there.
It just feels too annoying and offensive to ignore.
In a way.
I felt like I couldn't be happy if I kept this feeling even if it brought me any pleasure.
'... it wasn't just me.'
The only 2-star unarmed person he knew was Kal-El, who had released Hansoo and Arc-Roa, and had never shared a story.
Hansoo, who thinks of the elf, shrugs.
"Stay where you belong."
So you go up.
Hansoo opens his mouth, looking at Karjal.
"You..."
"Stay. I'm sick of it. Watching you go to hell. Someone has to stay anyway."
In Karhal's words, Enkidu nods, and Hansoo also expresses his intention to agree.
Someone has to stay here in Sector 4, control the climbers below, and send them up.
Just like someone did in 123.
And Karjal was going to stay.
'... but I wanted to follow you up.'
Karjal mutters as he looks at Hansoo.
Why would I not want to follow myself up there?
I wanted to be strong, and I wanted to do something with Hansoo.
That's why I've been looking for Hansoo.
But while he was wandering around looking for an excuse, he saw other travelers suffering desperately from other transcendents while they neglected him.
And I realized...
Someone has to take care of them.
'It doesn't even fit. Idiot. You've been with Enkidu too long.'
But Karjal shakes his head.
At first, Enkidu decided to stay and ask for help.
His decision now is clearly his own.
Karjal looks at Hansoo and insists on it.
"Hurry up and put it in. This body is responsible and I will use your power to bring violence to this place. Heheheh. If you go, I will be king here."
If I could borrow his power, his soul fragment.
His skill and hypnotic sword can also be controlled to some degree.
Full of germs in the bacterium, and control over other transcendental leaders.
'I'll make sure you eat it up.'
Hansoo, who saw Karjal, smiled with a satisfied face.
"Yes. You are... the king of this place now."
A king who has the right to rule all Transcenders in District 4.
Kieing.
Hansoo pulls out a fragment of the soul and puts his hand on Karhal's chest.
