Chapter 718: Chapter 715

Episode 715 The bondage of constrained regression (2)

[Hasting activates the hidden unique window ‘Regressor’s Time’!]

Cuckoo!

Dark red sparks flew out.

at the same time.

Grumble! Grumble!

The once hard ground became soft. Just like mud.

The things that wriggled and shot up were the tentacles that ancient beings often use.

Each tentacle had a single eye, and each contained magical power of a completely different nature.

It looks completely different from the previous hasting.

All the karma that has been accumulated through numerous regressions is about to be liberated.

Creepy!

Jinhyuk’s whole body had goosebumps.

‘Indeed…’

Is it possible to reach this level even in a goblin’s body if one returns again and again?

Just looking at it makes me feel like my cells are burning to a crisp.

Wooooow!

The light at the tip of each tentacle poured out all at once.

Quang!

Jinhyuk kicked out of his seat.

‘Heavenly Demon Lord’s Revelation’ and ‘Sword Demon’s Reigning Rebellion’ were activated at the same time, and the movement continued to leave an afterimage in the afterimage.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!

Fuuuuuuu!

Every place I had stepped on just a moment ago turned into a wasteland.

It’s a huge carpet bombing.

There were so many colorful beams of light that it was hard to imagine one person using them, and the number of them was impossible to estimate.

The power was also absurd.

fault…! fault!

Thanks to its bizarre and anomalous movements, it was able to escape without fail, but simply running away was not enough to penetrate Hasting’s gap.

Then….

[The unique spear ‘Rainbow Bridge’ is activated!]

Parts…!

Jinhyeok’s sword was overlaid with indigo and green energy.

Suddenly!

The beam of light that was flying was split apart.

If you simply block with the upper color, the defense itself is possible, but the efficiency is extremely low. Only by using colors that match the characteristics of each beam of light can the optimal strategy be completed.

“That’s amazing. I heard that abilities can be copied, but I didn’t know that I could also obtain Medray’s abilities. “Ability and understanding are equally incomprehensible.”

Hasting looked quite surprised.

There was an unbridgeable gap between hearing information and seeing it in person.

“You’re not the only one surprised. Even with such strength and ability, he chose to stick with the ancient beings. “Did you really think that you could prevent destruction if you didn’t go against those guys?”

“What does it mean for Azathoth to awaken? And why did I have no choice but to make this choice? “You will never understand.”

“no.”

Jinhyuk split the flying beam of light in half again.

The cut beam of light burned the ground black.

Jinhyuk’s eyes looked directly into Hasting’s eyes.

I know better than anyone else what it means for Azathoth to awaken.

The strongest being that cannot be dared to face.

A small creature facing such an absolute being would have no choice but to fall flat on its face in awe that would destroy its spirit.

but.

Those who simply try to avoid the target because they think it is hopeless are not those who truly want to protect the Tower of Trials.

The purpose is different.

The aspirations are different.

More than anything.

The weight of how much one understands and values the Tower of Trials varies.

Patter.

The shattered beams of light fell into countless fragments.

“If it were me, I wouldn’t have made that choice.”

“You mean… you would have fought? Even though you know it’s a fight you can never win?”

“There are no absolutes in the Tower of Trials. Anyone is eligible to climb the tower. “Anyone can climb to the top of the tower.”

“It’s an ideal theory. “Just because the rule says so doesn’t mean there is a possibility of achieving it.”

In response to Hasting’s sigh, Jinhyuk slowly opened his mouth,

“Floating stones and stars filling the night sky. “When you look at the Milky Way with its five moons, you don’t notice the passage of time.”

He simply monologues about the scenes he has seen.

“…!?”

An earthquake occurred in Hasting’s pupils.

“How did you… do that…?”

“The top of the tower is open to everyone. and. “No being can monopolize the end of the tower forever.”

New heroes are always welcome.

Saeyoung Eonhwan certainly said that.

Looking forward to a new wind blowing into this stagnant world.

“Let’s end this, Hasting. “I have to go back because there are people waiting for me.”

[‘Infinite Library’ is now open!]

Two books were selected from among the numerous books.

As the pages turned, Jinhyeok’s armament and magical power completely changed.

[The unique spear ‘Outlaw of the Wilderness’ is activated!]

[The unique spear ‘Chronosphere’ is activated!]

Parts!

A red light flashed on the tip of Billy the Kid’s gun.

Because there was no ‘Napoleon’s coronation’, it was not possible to completely recreate the heyday. A feeling of pressure spread on a different level than when using the First Blade.

“…There is definitely something about you that leaves you speechless. but. It seems you don’t know everything either. “At least in this space, you will never be able to win against me.”

Hasting looked at Jinhyeok for a moment, and as if he had decided on something, he took out the relic he had received from Jang Bo-kyung.

To be exact, it was an item given to him by Sea Buck Curl.

[‘Eob’s Instability Dice’ cracks.]

[The Elder God’s magic power is extracted.]

[Conditions have been met.]

[Unique Window ‘Time of the Returner’ – Infinite constraint regression is activated!]

The unique window began to deteriorate in a heterogeneous manner in response to the item.

Moment.

A strange wave spread.

Jinhyeok reflexively brought up the constellations of the ‘zodiac signs.’

however.

[The movement of the constellations stops.]

[Twelve constellations lose their light.]

The barrier does not work?

Let’s use ‘lost language’. Numerous languages were sucked into Hasting’s domain.

A kind of unique barrier.

It was also a type of confrontation used by the Elder Gods… or perhaps even surpassing it.

“Now I will give you a taste of some of the pain I have experienced. For your information, winning or losing this fight… will have no meaning in determining your future.”

“What is that…”

As soon as he could finish his sentence, Hasting rushed over.

It was a reckless advance that was completely different from the one where he continued to keep his distance and preferred mid- or long-distance combat.

‘what?’

Jinhyuk tilted his head.

This behavior is incomprehensible. Because the running form was so awkward.

There were so many loopholes that it seemed like no matter where I aimed, it would work.

It was a bit suspicious, but responding is a priority.

Chrrrrrrrr…!

The blade extended and rushed towards Hasting, who was running towards him.

however.

Just as the plainclothes sword was about to pierce Hasting, Hasting’s movements became unpredictable.

A difference of one sheet of paper.

The blade that removed a layer of skin split the air.

“what…!”

I wonder if such an attitude is possible there. I couldn’t believe that he could show such boldness in a situation where even the slightest mistake could lead to instant death.

Jinhyuk increased his speed by three levels.

I thought I would finish it this time.

but.

Sigh! Puff poop!

This time the result was the same.

Even though it was a mix of ‘Demon Soul Sword’ and ‘Heavenly Demon Divine Art’, Hasting narrowly avoided it as if he already knew everything.

It was such a clumsy and rudimentary move, but Jinhyuk couldn’t even graze Hasting’s collar.

Suddenly!

Hasting’s blade grazed Jinhyeok’s arm.

Red blood appeared at the wound site.

[Unique ability ‘Star’s Protection’…]

Just as golden light is about to flicker.

Coo thump!

“…Huh?”

Jinhyuk’s body swayed greatly.

Wounds do not heal.

Not only that, but it was getting worse at a faster rate.

Consciousness becomes blurred.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

I tried using ‘mandala’ as well as ‘system manipulation’, but I could not get back the life force that was escaping.

And that moment.

[Returns to 1 minute ago.]

[Memories are preserved.]

The world’s time has gone back.

⁕⁕⁕

“Huh….”

Jinhyuk took a deep breath. Could it

be that…

there was a regression?

And even for such a short period of time?

“It feels unfamiliar, right? But you will soon get used to it.”

Hasting said dryly.

“Have you regressed too? With memories?”

“It is a structure in which whoever dies between you and me returns. For reference, I dodged your first attack 128 times. And 535 times to avoid the next attack. “It took me 2,538 deaths before I avoided the last attack and succeeded in my attack.”

Like saying it’s everyday life.

Hasting explained why he was able to land a blow on Jinhyuk.

“It certainly makes sense that if you do that, you can avoid all of my attacks with clumsy movements. but. “With this structure, isn’t it impossible for both of them to win?”

“you’re right. The concept of ‘winning’ is bound to be diluted here. but. There is a crucial difference between you and me. “I have become accustomed to this constrained regression, but if you are experiencing it for the first time, will you be able to withstand the pressure of this regression?”

What brilliant skills or abilities do you have?

Or whether one has natural talent or sense is no longer important.

Surviving without being eaten by the enormous flow of time.

Those who endure without losing their reason are truly strong.

The battle between the two continued once again.

⁕⁕⁕

A power that can be used under extremely limited conditions through Sybukkal’s relic and Hasting’s unique window.

It was the essence of constrained regression.

once. Twice…

ten times… a hundred times.

And so far away that it’s hard to count them.

Short regressions and regressions were repeated, and the battle between Hasting and Jinhyeok continued. It doesn’t end even if one side kills the other.

The two mortals, trapped in an infinite bondage, continued to fight with no end.

How long has it been like that?

How attack and defense work. I now understand how my opponent uses patterns.

The point has come where attack and defense no longer have any meaning.

‘Why… don’t you give up?’

Phew!

Hasting, who plunged the blade into Jinhyeok’s heart, looked like he couldn’t understand.

[Returns.]

Puffpuffpuff!

This time it was Hasting.

The shattered heart soared high into the air.

[…regresses.]

Nothing changes.

Just go back a little while.

‘It’s normal to give up. It is normal to give up.’

Sigh! Phew! Sigh!

The blade cuts into the flesh.

All kinds of magic and skills hit the opponent’s vital points.

[Return.]

[Return.]

[Return.]

[Return …]

[…]

The spirit collapses for granted.

It was normal for a lost person in the dark to beg to be saved and taken out of this hell. Just like you did.

It is said that it is natural to rely on a being with greater power.

but.

“….”

Jinhyuk continued to think of other methods.

If it doesn’t work in the 1983050th round, try something new in the 1983051st round.

‘You mean it won’t break?’

Hasting bit his lip.

No matter how great the ordeal awaits in those eyes, the burning light will not disappear.

Tuk.

[‘Glacier Sculpture’ is activated!]

Damn it!

The frozen spears were pointed straight at Hasting.

This is a pattern you already know.

The angles and timing were also perfectly understood.

A new magical power formed at Hasting’s fingertips.

[…It works.]

A short message came to mind.

and.

Puff puff puff!

The frozen spear burrowed straight into Hasting’s body.

Red blood soaked the floor.

“….”

An earthquake occurred in Jinhyuk’s pupils.

Of course, the message that the regression was completed, which I thought would be repeated, did not come to mind.

instead.

Tiring!

A status window appeared that completely overturned expectations.
