The Novel’s Villain

< 33. Big Event (4) >

The event continued.

Usually after this time, all the content was consumed and the reaction had to fade. But the land of nightmares was different. I didn't get tired of duplicates, and the more I did, the more I fell in.

By now, you've changed the developer. ’

‘I hear developer songs. ’

‘Lee Jin-woo, what the hell are you...’

A tremendous amount of content continued to pour out that worried developers' lives.

By the time I overcame the horror factor, a new fun element had emerged. It was farming. The theme of terror changed every time. Therefore, the items that can be farmed naturally changed.

There were various types of decorations, including monster masks, electric chainsaws, moving statues, giant sharks, pirate captains' golden teeth, and more.

Players carry everything they can carry. It was almost demolition level. Thanks to this, I sent the middle-class and the appraisers of the horse system. The auction market was also lively. Recently, a talking scarecrow was sold for 1,700 dimensional gold coins.

And there was one thing that Jin Woo did not expect.

It was a case of overcoming trauma.

Mental illness was a problem that even potions couldn't solve.

Many posts on the community site say that trauma was overcome. In addition to panic disorders, post-traumatic stress disorders have shown great therapeutic effects.

Title: Amazing.

I almost drowned as a child, so I couldn't even dream of swimming, but I'm learning how to swim these days. He's talented.

It's like killing a pirate in the land of nightmares.

Gimbap Hell: I was scared of heights, but I've been better. I think it's because I beat up the Harpies. Try the number one jump.

Moisture Refill: I had a nervous breakdown, but I feel much better. The doctors were surprised.

Previously on PTSD: I was so bored, I can't even remember anymore. Is it because the land of nightmares is so shocking? I don't think it's a big deal.

Knights who fought in international wars, and knights who suffered severe trauma because of Gate anomalies, have also seen the effects of treatment. Overcoming the fear made people's minds healthier and their lives better.

It was the true function of the nightmare.

Black marble was also quite well gathered and sold out to research, sticking to not only Seyeon Kim but also to two Ph.D. Kim Se-yeon continued to admire the analysis. The Black Stone had a trait that it would become one when more than a certain quantity was gathered.

Jin Woo looked at Seyeon, who was studying frantically in the central control room. I have hardly slept. I was so obsessed with research that I could almost feel the madness.

Seyeon was touching the black marble with a smile.

“Ah! Jules! Good morning. ”

“It's dinner. Anyway, what do you think? ”

“Amazing. I have the power to create the space itself and control it. ”

“Can you make use of it? ”

“It's theoretically possible. We need more Black Stone. We need a giant calculator. But…”

Seyeon's face turned dark.

“I can't make it happen. To materialize images through Black Stone and build a controllable system… it's not possible with current technology. And it's going to take a lot of energy. ”

“I see.”

“Sorry, I don't have enough...”

Jinwoo shakes his head with a smile.

No one could do what Se-yeon couldn't.

The expectations for the game had already increased tremendously. The reaction to the event was even more than I could have imagined, although the interim boss and the boss performance through Arolong were also fantastic.

The content that would come out in the future was no better than this.

Jinwoo looks at Arolong.

Arolong flinches at the sight of Jinwoo.

Thanks to the event, I was resting for a while. Arolong, who was sitting still, frowned and pretended to be working. Arolong showed a result that exceeded expectations. The cast of the boss was highly regarded.

The solution was simple.

‘I need to change the monarch. ’

The monarch of nightmares was able to materialize not only the open field, but also the objects that would enter it. It was great because it felt so much pain when you brought things out.

“We can save the system. It's okay. ”

“Yes?”

Seyeon looked at Jinwoo with curious eyes.

“It's all there. ”

Jinwoo looked at the players enjoying the event beyond the screen. I laughed naturally. It looked so sinister.

Arolong looks at the smile of Jinwoo and his body trembles. You can almost see the end of the nightmare.

He didn't even know he was in a better position.

‘Glad you crawled all by yourself. It was the best choice of my life. ’

I fell facedown on my own, so I was able to finish at this level. Arolong quickly bows his head as he looks out of the central control room.

“Goodbye! Arolong, the magical girl! I'll work hard! ”

This was Arolong's new way of life.

Jinwoo returns to the Valley of Corrosion. I relaxed at the best spot in the canyon. I felt the nightmare's gaze. Unlike before, I didn't feel arrogant.

[Hey. I... I'm sorry about before.]

“Do you have anything to eat? ”

“Yes, I'll be ready for you. ”

Jinwoo said so, and the general manager gestured. Then Arkana shows up and starts cooking immediately.

You place a large piece of meat on top of the fire and catch your breath.

Phew!

A dragon's breath gushes from her mouth.

The meat grilled with Dragon Bread was extremely flavorful. It was the finest dish that no one in the world could eat.

The monarch of nightmares forgot his words for a moment.

He was also using the sovereign lord of diseases as his maid, who had only heard the rumors.

[Look, I... I think there was a misunderstanding.]

“General Manager.”

“Yes.”

The General Manager bows down before Jinwoo.

“I must have misunderstood. ”

“What a mess! You don't misunderstand. The sin of disturbing the master's mind is very heavy. Death will not wash away their sins. We shall cry out in eternal pain and praise only the Lord. ”

I was a little reluctant to listen to the General Manager.

Arkanas, who were making beverages, gave a stern nod, agreeing with the general manager.

A labyrinth appeared while Jinwoo was slaughtering meat slowly.

“I'm here. Started?”

Jinwoo nods, and the space around the Monarch of Nightmares widens.

Bang, bang!

Much larger dungeons fall down next to the Monarch of Nightmares, unlike the dungeons that appeared during the first wave.

It is said that the monarch of nightmares is large, but it is large in space, and it is only part of the canyon. If you think it is similar to subspace, it will be easy to understand. The monarch of nightmares is filled with dungeons.

[Uh, uh-uh...]

The Monarch of Nightmares was terrified. Millions of maniacs spilled from the small dungeons around you.

They weren't normal lunatics.

Monsters that feel no pain at all.

Thousands of lunatics rush out of the minefield, caught in the fire. When I found the vampire, I drew his blood. I also massaged spicy seasoning into giant cannibal flowers.

It was a nightmare.

The monarch of nightmares could never forget those sights.

The dungeon continues to appear as it cuts through the space.

The monarch of nightmares forgot his words in a dungeon filled with sky. Many dungeons began to pile up as they quickly fell.

[Now, wait...!]

The monarch of nightmares was never able to see the middle-class sky again. The sun is getting dimmer, and you are completely trapped in the dungeon.

The Monarch of Nightmares screams, but does not reach Jinwoo. I could do nothing but shudder to imagine the pain that was coming. Fear of obstruction was also emerging.

“Phew! Done! ”

The labyrinth wipes the sweat from his forehead and looks at the dark matter.

“Well done.”

“Can I go? ”

“Yes."

The labyrinth waves and disappears.

Jinwoo thought I'd make something delicious for the maze.

“Now it's worth a look. ”

Jinwoo nods, thinking like that.

I had a relaxed lunch again, looking at the good scenery where it was located.

* * *

More players spilled on the second wave. Players were strengthened through additional events.

Players enjoyed it well. I enjoyed fear and the pleasure of destroying it. Then the monarch of the nightmare became weaker by the day. The Black Horse contained his power, but he was forced to weaken as a result of its vast quantity.

The duration of the event was long enough for players to enjoy.

‘It's time to end this. ’

As soon as you see that the nightmare lord is unable to keep his nightmare going, you decide to end the event.

Central Control has notified us of the completion of the event.

[Event is closed. Please return before the land of nightmares closes. If you remain in the land of nightmares, your avatar will be destroyed.]

[Reward is awarded based on Contribution Points.]

“Oh! It's over. ”

“Honey jam, I'm afraid. ”

“The next update will always be... let's go to the dungeon first! ”

The event was concluded successfully.

Players turn their feet toward the land of nightmares. Players who survived without returning home were forced to disconnect from the central control room.

It didn't matter if the players were all out.

Wave 3.

Because there was one last wave left.

Jinwoo tried to unwind.

My body didn't feel awkward.

“Are you all right?”

“I like it.”

Luna nods as she approaches.

Jinwoo was in the Avatar.

Luna's handmade avatar was excellent.

He was also quite tall and had well-toned muscles. His face was a man's delightful look. It looked like a typical game hero.

His nickname was Lord Kim.

Maybe one day you'll have something to do with it.

‘It's a little frustrating...’

The Avatar is ranked E, making it difficult to move.

“Let's get started. ”

Jinwoo entered the monarchy of nightmares through a dungeon.

At the end of the event, the nightmare, which was barely breathing, was furious and greeted. Jinwoo showed up alone and barely sighed of relief.

The Golden Monarch? Oh, that's right.]

The nightmare was much weakened. I couldn't find the same energy as before.

The surrounding landscape was not normal whether it was out of control or not. All the themes that have come out so far have been mixed up into scraps. The monsters were out of control as well.

It felt like I was looking at a ragged box of paper.

[Please wait! I apologize. I was careless.]

I thought I heard something.

I couldn't quite hear what the nightmare lord had to say because I was in the avatar. It didn't matter anyway.

We didn't need to talk.

Seyeon was waiting for Jin's orders through the central control room.

“Wave three, go. ”

Jinwoo gives the order and the surrounding atmosphere is quiet.

Even the mixed nightmares and the monsters that were stirring were paused as if time had stopped.

Geez!

You hear something tearing. It was like the world was crumbling.

Boo-hoo!

Gold began to crack in the sky, which was flashing in a bright light. As the pottery cracks, the cracks crack and the fragments of the sky fall to the ground. It's not just the sky. Every room of nightmare monarchs begins to tear apart.

[Khh, Khh!]

The monarch of nightmares screams.

I felt like someone had cut my skin open with a blade. The blade was not one. There were so many that I could not even imagine. The word "infinite" matched.

Tsk, tsk!

The sky broke.

A big black hole was drilled into the sky.

It was nothing compared to a nightmare.

The destruction of the world, itself.

Glug!

Black things crawl out of the broken sky. It was a nightmare, but the sky was so high that it looked like a small dot. Small dots began to spread over the sky.

[What, what! Well, that's...]

The sky darkened. Then black spots burst out of the black hole.

I fell all over the floor. The black dots that fall on the ground slowly rise up and rush around the crevasse.

It was not a black dot.

It was a huge army that was nothing compared to the first and second waves. Monsters from the dungeon surrounding the nightmare lord were spilled from the maze.

The labyrinth continues to collect monsters during the event.

The maze was able to move the dungeon, but it was unable to control the monsters. It was thanks to Arolong that I was able to get the numbers to be called and follow Jin Woo's words.

Arolong has taken over all the dungeons around the nightmare monarch, creating monsters that follow him.

More than I thought. ’

Jinwoo was a little embarrassed, but did not tease.

I ordered a little bit more than the number of players, which was more than tens of times bigger.

The enormous dimensional gold coins poured out by Jinwoo greatly acted.

Arolong produces monsters based on Dimensional Doubloons. Arolong worked tirelessly day and night.

[Ugh, ugh…]

The monarch of nightmares trembles.

There were so many more monsters that could be implemented with their powers right now. On the contrary, those monsters weren't strong enough.

It was all E rank.

A common monarch would never have been hit by an E-rank monster like that. But the monarch of nightmares was different. The power of nightmares has always worked. Thanks to that, his rank was also set to E rank.

Jinwoo looks around.

Many of the environments that the players have experienced so far have been mixed up.

‘There must be a body or weakness. ’

Corruption and parasites were the same. The Monarch of Nightmares seemed similar. But I didn't know where he was. I couldn't ask because I couldn't communicate because I was avatar.

I had to search.

Luckily, there were many workers. There were so many of them. Seeing so many of them, the area around Jinwoo seemed like black ground.

“Take what you can spare and eat the rest. ”

As soon as Jin Woo's command came, monsters were scattered everywhere. The monarch of nightmares tried to move the monsters and stop them.

Kieeek!

Eating!

Black monsters began to devour not only the monsters of nightmares, but everything they saw. As soon as Jin Woo gave the order, the machines would work without rest.

[Grrrgh! Knng!]

Land, buildings, and everything else that moved disappeared.

The monarch of nightmares screams. The pain I've endured so far was nothing. The skin, muscles, and bone organs seemed to be chewing on them at the same time.

You hear a vague scream, and he nods.

“Keep producing and putting. ”

At Jinwoo's words, Arolong starts working again.

Monsters are constantly pouring out of the dungeons surrounding the nightmare lord.

After waiting for a while, the monsters brought various things.

[E] Eye of Nightmare

Eyes that can see the outside world.

Connected to the Monarch of Nightmares.

Jinwoo throws her head to the side, and the monster chews her eyes out.

[Grrrgh, my, my eyes...!]

Several accessories piled up in front of the herd.

It was an artifact with various shapes.

[That, that, that alone...! Shhhhh!]

Pussy!

I heard something explode. The monarch of nightmares was also capable of reproduction.

Not right now.

From that point on, the space created by the monarch of nightmares began to shrink rapidly.

“... I think I have a weakness. ”

The space that was filled with various horrors was white.

It seemed to express my current nightmare mood.

I showed him what the monsters found.

On my way there, the ground was dug deep.

You see the black stone in Jinwoo's eyes.

The black stone had all its nostrils attached to it, but the snow trembled as it met. He was very humble for threatening Jin Woo.

[E] Reality of Nightmares

Nightmares often break in vain.

The reality of nightmares is also futile.

Singgeek!

Jinwoo smiled brightly at the reality of the nightmare. He clenched his fist.

Phew!

Jinwoo's fist pierces into the nightmare. Blood spurts from the nostrils of nightmares and excellent teeth fall out.

The space that the nightmare created disappeared neatly.

Jinwoo put the reality of the bloody nightmare into the subspace.

‘The game will be more abundant. ’

I felt like I bought a good graphics card.
