What would happen if the Puppeteer controlled them?
Then they would become the enemy .
âYou guys are no help, so stay behind!â
The members became really annoyed because the members of Team Xeon only got in the way .
A member angrily asked why they had to babysit when it was hard enough going up against a monster theyâve seen for the first time .
Marcus was the one that said it .
His pride was just as high as the level of his skill .
He was one of the members that didnât really like the collaboration .
He did acknowledge the need for it, so he followed Kim Yoo-Na, but once he realized how unhelpful they were, he released his anger .
âWeaknessâ¦whereâs the weaknessâ¦â
Hyun-Soo quickly moved his eyes to find the Puppeteerâs weakness .
But he couldnât find the white dot anywhere .
âDamn it, I need to make the monster move somehowâ¦â
The Puppeteer stayed in one place as if it was glued to that spot .
âWhat to do?â
Hyun-Soo quickly tried to think of something .
The more time passes, the more theyâre at a disadvantage .
On top of that, they had to babysit .
And then .
Kim Yoo-Na gave her orders .
âLong distance attackers, focus on the monster . You donât have to divert its attention . The close-range attackers will deal with the wooden models . If possible, use your strongest skill and attack quickly . â
No one knew when they would become a puppet .
On top of that, if they donât cut the thread on the models, more will appear .
Because of that, the long distance attackers couldnât really do much .
Everyone knew they wouldnât benefit anything from dragging the hunt too long .
Kim Yoo-Na was gambling .
But the members pushed aside their doubts and followed her instructions .
While the models were attacking the close-range attackersâ¦
Boom!
Swoosh!
Variety of skills were used on the Puppeteer .
And .
âHuh?â
The wooden models were taken somewhere .
It was near the Puppeteerâs body .
The wooden models were taking the hit for the Puppeteer .
âI think we can ignore everything else and attack just the Puppeteer . â
That thought suddenly popped into Hyun-Sooâs head .
Everyone mustâve thought the same thing because they were preparing to use their skills again .
But that thought was soon destroyed .
Kyahhhhhhhh!
Boooom!
After the Puppeteer endured the attacks, it screamed as its eyes turned red .
And at the same time, the floor started breaking .
âAck?!â
The hunters started losing their balance because of the floor .
Darkness was below the floor .
They remembered walking up to the seventh floor, but they disappeared .
âDamn it!â
The worn out wooden floor wasnât stable .
Who knew things would turn out like this?!
Hyun-Soo quickly looked towards the Puppeteer .
The human spider had a big smile .
The monster was having fun watching the hunters fall into the deep hole .
The floor where the Puppeteer was standing was fine .
Hyun-Soo noticed it .
âThat damn bug!â
He started attacking without knowing .
He threw several large hooks towards the monster and as wrapped around them and landed on the floor, Hyun-Soo was able to pull the monster down .
Kyahhhhh!
The Puppeteerâs heavy body fell, but it started spinning in midair .
It was trying to support its body by using the silver threads .
Every time that happened, Hyun-Soo used his skills to try to pull the monster down .
Kyahhhh!
Since it failed so many times, the Puppeteer glared at Hyun-Soo .
The monster knew .
It would be dragged down as well if Hyun-Soo wasnât killed .
Even though each floor was pretty high, falling from the seventh to the first floor didnât take that long .
For some reason, it seemed like they would end up falling deeper into the darkness .
But no matter how deep it is, theyâll end up landing on the ground .
If they fall from here, theyâll end upâ¦
That thought made Hyun-Soo impatient .
âWeakness!â
Hyun-Soo thought making the monster move was the right thing to do .
There was a white light on the tail that was creating the thread .
He had to attack that .
But the Puppeteer was trying its best to hide it .
âDamn it!â
Hyun-Soo looked at the members that were falling .
Since there werenât any walls, they couldnât pierce the wall with their weapons and endure it .
He didnât have time to just stand there .
Hyun-Sooâs vision started slowing down .
The Puppeteerâs mouth was moving in slow motion as it screamed .
He condensed his skill and started walking .
Hyun-Soo gained momentum and he was able to get on the Puppeteerâs body .
Kyahhhhh!
The Puppeteer violently moved its body to make Hyun-Soo fall .
The monsterâs slender legs started attacking Hyun-Sooâs back, but Hyun-Soo had Lahatlanâs protection .
Crack!
Kyahhhhhh!
The white dot was his target .
It was the Puppeteerâs weakness .
Hyun-Sooâs fist landed on the monsterâs slim legs and broke them .
Crack!
Crack!
Craaack!
Everytime Hyun-Sooâs fist landed on the monsterâs legs, it screamed .
The fear of death usually reveals a personâs limitations .
Hyun-Soo was using one skill after another and things were still moving slow for him .
There were more screams and as Hyun-Soo was attacking the monsterâs weakness, fluids and body remains were flying all over the place .
Squish!
Hyun-Soo pulled out whatever was in his hand .
A weird, green-colored thing was in his hand .
The monsterâs body started twitching .
Hyun-Soo poured out his skill inside the monsterâs body .
His fist was enveloped with Blade Fist .
He created a rod with Invisible Attack and pierced the monsterâs body .
Kyaâ¦â¦ Kyahhhâ¦â¦ .
The Puppeteerâs body trembled intermittently and then completely stopped moving .
The monsterâs thin legs stopped moving as well .
Hyun-Soo looked at his hand with a blank expression .
An odd-colored fluid covered his hand .
Itâs because the Puppeteerâs organs smeared on his hand .
âWhat is this? Why is my handâ¦â¦?â
Hyun-Soo looked around after looking at his hand with a blank expression .
People were falling .
Within the darkness underneath the ground, a light appeared .
âPeopleâ¦â¦fall , lightâ¦â¦ . â
One thought popped into his head after analyzing his surrounding .
âFall!â
That one word helped him come back to his senses .
He forgot about what was happening because it was so chaotic, but he quickly came back to his senses .
A light within this darkness?
There was a good chance that they were done with this area .
If they donât do something quickly, theyâll be dead meat .
âDamn it, damn it!â
Thatâs probably the reason why two high-ranking guilds started falling apart .
Ordinary groups wouldâve died even before coming here .
Hyun-Soo already counted three areas .
And this was the last area where they could all die .
If there was water underneath here, that would be the best situation .
But life wasnât that easy .
âDamn it!â
Hyun-Soo cursed so many times already .
He was running out of time and being impatient only made him blank out .
Ririâs wings .
He could create a skill that gave him the ability to fly .
But he didnât have time like he did back at the cavern .
And there were over 20 people .
Everyone would die even before Hyun-Soo finished transferring the skill to everyone .
Fwoosh!
âWind?â
Hyun-Soo felt wind blowing against his cheeks .
Hunters that controlled the wind element started throwing their attacks towards the floor .
They were trying to prevent the floor from falling apart even more .
âRight, cushion!â
The thought suddenly popped into his head .
Hyun-Soo quickly took action .
He didnât have time to be picky .
The floor was still falling apart .
âInvisible Attack, maximum output! And mix it wind the wind!â
Even though the skill wasnât his, Hyun-Soo knew how to control the wind .
He studied the skill while helping David with his skill .
Hyun-Soo added the wind element to his Invisible Attack .
And he made it as big as possible .
Even though it took up most of his energy and his eyes became blurry, surviving this moment was the most important .
He added as much wind as he could .
A large wind balloon was created where the light was .
Will it work?
âWork!â
The floor was disappearing by the minute .
Hyun-Soo believed in his skill .
***
âBlehhhh!â
The sound of people throwing up filled the room .
âJeez . Tsk, tsk, tskâ¦â¦ . â
âYou guys are weakâ¦â¦ . â
The members were all fine . It was the members of Team Xeon that were throwing up in the corner of the room .
Katrina, however, looked a bit exhausted .
Of course the members werenât completely fine at first .
Hyun-Soo chuckled when they acted like they were fine after they regained consciousness .
Even though the members of Team Xeon were vomiting their guts out, all of them were in one piece .
Hyun-Sooâs gamble worked really well .
âIt was scary . â
Hyun-Soo closed his eyes as he recalled the last moment .
He did create a large wind balloon .
ââ¦â¦I didnât know it was going to be invisible . â
The others mustâve not been able to see it, because they were shocked .
Right when they landed on the ground .
The hunters jumped as if they bounced off a trampoline and after they realized what happened, they had a hard time standing up .
Itâs because they were still shaken up .
After looking around, they couldnât believe what happened, so they checked their bodies .
Their hands were shaking as they were checking .
âAm I seeing things because Iâm dead? Did my mind put a filter because the sight was so gruesome?â
âI canât believe I died with these guys and not with my diva . How depressing . â
âHey, I guess thereâs not much going on in heaven . Is it because the angels havenât come down to pick us up?â
The members made weird comments with a straight face .
They were all under the assumption that they were dead, so even Hyun-Soo asked himself whether he died too .
âI donât believe in the afterlife . â
Brad spoke as he slightly raised his hand .
Katrina started crying .
She cried about how there were a lot of places she wanted to go and was sad that she couldnât anymore .
âI, sniffle, havenât, sniffle, been, sniffle, to, sniffle, Disneyland, sniffle, yet . I wanted to goâ¦!â
âHey, youâre a ghost now so you can fly there . Iâm sure you donât have to wait in line . Because youâre dead . â
âAhhhhh!â
âDavid, you call that comforting?â
In Hyun-Sooâs eyes, there was something wrong with all of them .
And then .
âExcuse me . Weâre still alive . â
Everyone looked confused .
Their faces said, âWe fell from way up there, so how are we still alive?â
âItâs true . I used a skill that decreased the amount of damage and absorbed the impactâ¦â
âStop lying . â
âRookie, weâre all going to heaven, so you need to give up that false hope . â
âItâs trueâ
âOh yeah? If itâs true, then we should bleed . â
The hunter that said that used his weapon and cut his arm .
Fwoosh!
And of course, blood shot out of it .
âWhat the hell?!â
The healer was shocked and they immediately cured the cut, but the members still looked pretty shocked .
After that, everyone ran to Hyun-Soo and hugged him to express their appreciation .
They mustâve been really embarrassed because they acted like they were dead when they were actually alive .
