[Title: ^^Why the fuck is this shitty game's glitchy bullshit like this?]
(Black red-eyed Basilisk screencap.)
What the hell is that thing? That's the 20th floor boss? No level showing?
Dodged it, searched every inch of the map, no gimmicks anywhere.
Fought it, no cutscene, they really just left it there to catch?
I haven't even job-changed yet? Is there a separate strategy method?
It's coiled up near the portal, can't even escape.
└ Sigh sigh, yeah, stop using bugs all the time.
└└ How'd you know I used a bug?
└└ Read this (link)
└└ Isn't the post content too old?
└└ Even if a ping princess brings it, it's still bullshit
└└ Sorry sorry;;
[Title: From 1.14, bug detection monster added to 20th floor.]
(Black Basilisk screencap.)
When you trigger the bug where throwing slimes opens the door 5+ times, instead of Lizard Great Chieftain, ??? Basilisk pops up as boss mob. (Different from end-of-month Labyrinth or dungeon bosses.)
Fuck, these bastards didn't fix the bug again, just blocking newbies from going to the next floor on purpose.
So, I tried catching it with my main. It can be caught. And the result...
(21st floor portal, return portal screencap.)
Just pitch black nothing. No drop items even after catching it.
Seems like it's a boss thrown in because they couldn't catch the bug, not made for newbies to catch.
Still gives some EXP.
But if it's grind-worthy, just go to upper floors lol;;
└ That thing's first discoverer was Korean, used it for job-change time attack lololol
└└ 96 hour incident
└└ Devs must've had massive headaches seeing that
└ Fuck, slimes again? What the hell are slimes anyway?
└└ Trying to stop us from leaving the dangerous Labyrinth City.
└└ Basic alchemy ingredient from the start doesn't make sense. All western potions use slime fluid.
└└ Magic stones are dogshit. Slime semiconductors are the meta.
Shoved my hand into the sliding puzzle and scrambled it wildly.
-Dalkak! Dalkak! Udeuk! Deudeudeudeu...
The small statue spewed red light, but... anyway, passed!
"Let's go."
"Huh..."
"Hooah..."
"Kiyaa..."
Next was a door with a maze drawn on it.
I jammed my finger into the maze entrance and dragged it straight to the center.
-Pududeudeuk! Deudeudeu...
Connected start to middle, passed!
-Clap clap clap clap clap
"Does this even work?"
"I'm not complaining."
"I'll follow you for life..."
Next door was just riddled with small holes.
'...? All connected? Not very intuitive...'
The moment I approached the door...
-Woong! Chiiik!
"Pfft!"
Seeing purple smoke pour all over my body, my companions freaked and rushed over.
"Kyaaah!! Oppa!!"
"Sukkerot!!"
"Ryu-o-nim! We'll be screwed without you!!!!"
I spat out the smoke that got in my mouth and waved my hand.
"Ptoo! Pfft! Pfft! Ugh, what the hell is this?"
"O, Oppa? You okay?"
No idea what poison it is, but...
[LV.6 Poison Resistance]
No issues at all.
-Deudeudeudeu
Door opened just in time, so I blew the poison smoke away with a sword wind and called my companions.
-Whish! Shiiik! Hwoong!
"Come on, let's head in first."
"Huh? Y-Yeah..."
"...??"
Just in case, I chugged an antidote and looked back at my companions.
"""...?""
Faces like 'Is he really okay?'
Their dazed expressions were hilarious, so I burst out laughing.
"Kukuku, I have Poison Resistance skill, so I'm fine."
"Ooo..."
Magna admired, then looked at my clothes and said.
"Male, take them off."
"You crazy barbarian! How dare you sexually harass..."
"Hey, shut up idiot. If poison mist gets on you, it's obvious."
"Oh."
Yeah, thinking about it, even if I'm fine, it could affect the others.
I nodded and said.
"Then, everyone turn around please."
At my words, Selana and Magna froze.
""".........Gulp! H-Here...?""
"?? Where else would I change? There's a door behind here, best spot."
"R-Right! Gotta change quick! Don't worry oppa!"
"Krrrkrrrkrrrkrrrkrrr..."
Jenin, who had been biting her lip in embarrassment, pounded her chest and said.
"Don't worry Ryu-o-nim! Me! This Jenin will guard you ironclad..."
"You turn around too."
"Ah... Yes."
Jenin stood between Magna and Selana, who had turned around.
I turned my back to Jenin and started undressing.
-Swish... swish...
While quickly changing, I heard weird noises and stopped.
-Gulp! Tak tak tak tak! Munch munch... Urgh...
-Hoo... Hooook! Huff huff...
'...? What the hell are these sounds.'
"What? Monster show up?"
"N-No no! Keep doing what you were!"
"Krrrkrrr... Main God, save me from this temptation..."
Tossed the fully removed clothes into a corner.
Can't carry poison-soaked clothes wasting space.
-Whish!
-Eek... Gon...
-...Sob!
-...
-Krrrkrrr... Can't... hold...
What the hell are they babbling about?
Thought about raising Ki Sense, but just finished changing.
-Swish! Shuk!
-Hooo...
Turned around after fully changed...
"Why are you guys squatting?"
Saw Jenin staring at the ground, and the two sitting with backs turned.
"Sorry... Khup... Sorry, Ryu-o-nim."
"What, what's up Jenin."
"Haaa... Oppa~ Don't mind it~ She's just sorry for getting poison mist on you."
"??? Don't mind it Jenin. This time, I was too careless."
"Khup... You got defiled... Khuhup..."
"Today too, for our daily bread, thank you Lord..."
My companions are all great, but sometimes they go off the rails.
"Come on. Everyone stop the nonsense and let's go quick. We'll camp before hitting 18th floor."
"Yes~"
"In the name of the Saintess and Saint..."
"Yes..."
Current floor is 17th. Reached it in under 24 hours.
Overwhelming record. Plenty of time to camp leisurely.
Everyone except Jenin traversed the Labyrinth with happy, satisfied faces.
Current location: In front of 18th floor portal.
We finished off the monsters lurking near the portal.
Last one left: A bigger Woodman.
Selana yelled after tossing her shield into the air.
"Magna!"
"Hup!"
Magna kicked the thrown shield, slamming it into the Woodman.
-Thung! Kwajijik!
"Guoooo!!"
Jenin fired magic at the Woodman thrashing to remove the shield.
"Wind Boom."
-Peong! Kwajijijik!!!
"Nice!!!"
"No big deal, Gongnyeo-nim!!"
"Kyaaak!"
"Eek! S-Sorry..."
Then, behind growling Selana, a bright orb floated up.
-Woong... sparkle...
"G-Gongnyeo-nim! Behind! Behind you, Essence!"
"What? Where! Kyaaak! It's real!"
"Luminous."
I grabbed the Essence and said.
"We'll check it at the Temple together, give it to whoever suits best. No complaints?"
My companions started chattering upon hearing me.
"What does Woodman Essence give? 'Increased Recovery', 'Grass Whip', 'Rooting'... um..."
"""... 'Regeneration'."""
"""Ooo..."""
Everyone gasped at 'Regeneration'.
Looks like Increased Recovery, but Regeneration even regrows severed parts.
Legend says someone at peak Regeneration regrew their lower body after it got blown off.
Even Master-nim said she never saw it herself.
Jenin smiled bitterly and shook her head.
"None suit me."
"I'd take even just Increased Recovery... Ah, that's for priests, right?"
"Hmm... Arm turns to grass? ...Cool."
To my companions lost in sweet fantasies, I said.
"First, let's prep camp."
"""Yes!"""
Companions pulling out camping gear.
I stopped them and said.
"Everyone. I wanna test something."
"""Hm?"""
"Stay right there."
Companions nodded without complaint now.
"I'm... so excited oppa!"
"I wonder this time..."
"O... Ooo..."
Might not work. But if it does, no night watch needed.
Stocked up tons of 18th floor portal shards first...
-Puk! Seok seok
Tossed a small portal shard at Selana's body.
-Whish! Cheolpeok...
"Portal gets cut off... really god..."
Smaller shard means movement limits, so thought one per person.
-Hwiwoong
Seeing Selana vanish suddenly, the two tilted heads.
"G-Gongnyeo-nim?"
"Sent to next floor exile?"
Exile? What kinda talk is that.
And where'd you learn 'exile'...
Tossed portal at Magna too.
-Whish! Hwoong!
"Me too maybe...?"
-Whish!
"Uwaaak! Camping on next floo..."
-Hwoong!
Confirmed everyone gone, gripped portal to 17.5th Floor.
Body movement sensation ended...
-Hwaaaaaak!!! I'm fallingggg!!!
-Haa! God! Give me the power to drive out this darkness!!!
-Oppa~ Where are you~ Where is this?! S-Stop joking!!!
Confirmed all transported fine.
If I'd known it'd be this chaotic, should've warned ahead...
"Gotta tell them next time."
They trust me too much, got carried away.
Reflection aside...
"Everyone!!! There's floor, don't worry! Gather towards my voice!"
-Ob! Bba! Aaaah!!!
-The Main God!!! In the darkness!!! Withstand the tempting voice!!!
-Hwaaaak!!!
"Sigh..."
So I went around picking up the most visible ones first.
"Hooook! Hooook! Thought... I was dead..."
-Tremble tremble tremble!
Selana bounced around in wonder and said.
"Oppa! Where's this?"
"Male. What's the deal."
I grinned at my companions.
"A place where we don't need night watch."
"""..."""
"Between 17th and 18th floor. I call it 17.5th Floor."
Everyone muttered with faces like they heard but didn't get it.
"17.5...?"
"Such a place exists?"
"Ryu, Ryu-o-nim... what principle..."
That's...
"No idea. We'll camp here from now on. Everyone sleep soundly, no worries. Never been dangerous here before."
"""...Jackpot."""
"Super high-quality dragonfly stud..."
???? What language is that?
We grinned ear to ear, laid out spots, and slept like logs.
