Chapter 223

Kaboom!

The sound of thunder rang through the room, and the magic power from Min Sung’s +9 Gungnir swallowed up the hundreds of Aura light launched by Oden.

Once Min Sung eliminated Oden’s attack and found him, he had already positioned himself behind his back.

His previous attack was just bait.

Oden smirked and swung his sword as planned.

Oden thought he stabbed Min Sung in the back, but Min Sung began to disappear as if he was smoke.

“…?!”

When Oden made a surprised face, Min Sung’s Gungnir stabbed through his head.

“Is this all you’ve got? You’re so slow,” said Min Sung to express how pathetic he thought he was.

“I-it’s not over ye…!”

Min Sung swung his Gungnir.

The blade stabbed through Oden’s side.

“Ugh!”

Oden gasped. He grabbed his side and wobbled side to side.

His gown was ripped, exposing his wound.

Although one attack made his body into a complete mess, he still glared at Min Sung and smiled.

“I’ll forever regret not killing you when I had the chance!”

Oden’s blood vessels popped out as he swung his sword.

Ping!

The tremendous Aura power launched from his sword crashed into the ground and charged toward Min Sung.

Roarrrrr!

Aura strength powerful enough to knock down the castle flew toward Min Sung.

Min Sung saw the Aura coming, but he didn’t’ blink an eye.

On the contrary, he blinked once and held up his Gungnir against the Aura that was coming his way.

The Aura of his Gungnir split the light into half.

The Aura launched by Oden was unable to touch Min Sung and reached the castle walls behind him.

Oden tried to attack again, but he was unable to move.

Oden’s face was stiff, and his eyes were filled with fear.

Min Sung stood without moving.

But Oden felt as if a knife was being held up against his throat.

He was afraid that if he moved, he would lose his life in an instant.

Oden looked around him.

“If you wanted your hostage back, you should’ve acted without being noticed.”

Once he blinked once, Min Sung was right in front of his nose.

As soon as Oden opened his mouth with a pale face, the Gungnir stabbed Oden’s body from above.

Oden shed blood as he fell over backward.

His robe was in tatters.

His body, covered in blood, was trembling like crazy.

“… Who are you?” Oden asked in disbelief.

Min Sung looked down at Oden with emotionless eyes and opened his mouth.

“Where do I have to go to increase my reputation as soon as possible?” Min Sung asked.

Oden, who was covered in blood and was close to death, clenched down on his teeth.

“Do you really think I’ll give you that information? I’m going to wait for you in the afterlife, and once you come, I’m going to take your soul and chew it up…”

Slash!

The Gungnir stabbed through Oden’s shoulder and bones.

Min Sung stepped on Oden’s neck in order to pull the Gungnir back out.

Oden trembled in pain with blood spilling out.

“I don’t know when I should equip myself. I’m not sure when is the right time to use my real skill.”

Oden trembled and glared up at Min Sung.

But that was all Oden could do.

Min Sung stared down at Oden and knitted his brows out of frustration.

“Tell me how I can save time. I don’t want to go up step-by-step.”

Min Sung let out his energy.

Oden’s skin changed as if it was burning, and his hair fell off, turning him into beeswax.

And as soon as the treatment began, he realized that this pain could last forever, so he had no choice but to cough up all the information he had.

From what he had heard, most rankers enjoyed the authority they obtained in their current positions.

That meant they had evil reputations, and if he killed them, he would be able to obtain reputation even faster.

It was a simple answer, and it was something that anyone could have revealed, but that actually wasn’t the case.

More definite information was bound to lead to different results.

“… Please don’t kill me. I can give you my ranker position even if you don’t kill me.”

Oden looked up at Min Sung with shaking eyes.

“Are you that stupid?”

“…?”

“That’s no way to ask for a favor,” Min Sung said with cold eyes.

“P-please. Please don’t kill me…!”

While Oden begged for his life…

Min Sung’s Gungnir stabbed through Oden’s head.

Slash!

The blade stabbed all the way through his face.

The ground was soaked with blood.

Min Sung took out his Gungnir with a straight look on his face.

[The Dionysus Gods are amazed by your power.]

[The gods are beginning to gift you with experience points.]

[The gods who recently favorite you are gifting you with experience points.]

[You’re obtaining experience points and reputation.]

[Counting complete.]

[You’ve acquired a total of +25,000 points. You previously had +500 points.]

***

There was a crow that was secretly watching Min Sung and Oden’s battle.

The crow’s eyes turned red, and it cried as it flew up into the sky.

The crow flew in a particular direction with its eyes still red.

After a long flight, the crow entered a cave located just below the peak of a mountain.

As soon as it landed, the crow approached a man who was sitting in a lotus position.

Words were written in the crow’s red eyes.

The man who was sitting in the lotus position in the cave looked at the crow’s eyes and jolted his eyes wide open.

***

“Are we going to keep going?”

Ho Sung Lee looked at Oden’s body with disgust and asked Min Sung.

“Of course. We have no reason to stay for long.”

Ho Sung Lee nodded in response.

Min Sung opened the system window.

And he headed to the next destination.

All the players nearby who watched the battle gulped in fear.

They knew they couldn’t stand in the way, and they even had a hard time breathing.

On the other hand, Min Sung continued walking and commented, “This is so annoying.”

“What do you mean, Sir?” Ho Sung Lee asked.

“Walking. We just drove on earth, but not here.”

“Then shall I look for a horse for you? I can find one quickly. After all, we’re inside a castle.”

“Forget it. Horses aren’t fast enough.”

Ho Sung Lee shut his mouth.

“We’re going to ignore the dungeons and focus on finding the other rankers, and once we arrive at our next location, you must focus on finding information on the rankers with evil reputations.”

“Yes, Sir.”

“Let’s get moving.”

As soon as Min Sung said that, Bowl ran over and entered Min Sung’s pocket.

And then Min Sung made a loud shooting sound as he began running at high speed.

Ssol followed behind him at high speed, but Ho Sung Lee sighed.

That was because he had to run with all his might again.

Ho Sung Lee ran toward Min Sung’s direction with great determination.

***

A bald muscular man, who obtained information from the crow, slowly opened his eyes from the lotus position and got up.

He was 2 meters and 3 centimeters tall.

He was so tall that his head almost reached the ceiling of the cage.

The muscular man slowly exited the cave.

Chirp! Chirp!

He heard birds crying, and the strong sun rays shined down through the leaves.

The man covered his eyes from the sun and breathed in the outside air for the first time in a while.

And then a moment later, he heard footsteps.

After checking their presence, the man waited for them to arrive.

And then 3 disguised men appeared from within the bushes.

“Hello, Pheus.”

As soon as they saw the muscular man, they bowed and greeted him with respect.

The man looked at them tiredly and then scanned his surroundings while cracking his neck.

“Let’s go.”

The man led the way followed by the 2 white men with pale skin.

They followed Pheus.

***

The Central Continent was surrounded by the Inner Sea.

For that reason, one had to cross the vast ocean in order to reach the Central Continent.

And on the way to the ocean, there was a city that they had to pass, and Min Sung intended to kill any rankers in that city if they had evil reputations.

For that reason, he looked for this port city.

Although they moved at a high speed, it still took them 2 days to reach the port city.

They would’ve arrived by now if they didn’t wait for Ho Sung Lee to catch up, but they moved together, which slowed them down.

As a result, they spent 2 days for travel.

“… I’m sorry. It’s all my fault that we took this long.”

Ho Sung Lee expressed his apologies with a tired look on his face

“You couldn’t help it. Don’t apologize. You look incapable.”

Min Sung then headed toward the entrance of the port city and handed them his identity code.

The guards at the entrance checked his identity card and immediately changed their expressions.

They gave Min Sung a salute.

“Welcome to Haikman Port City!”

They spoke in loud voices with proper postures.
