Episode 65.

Soo Ah-rin looked around, letting out a deep breath as she nodded her head.

“Now that I’ve come this far, it’s clear. The former quest sent us to this world.”

“It’s very prudent of you not to be sure about that yet, Seonbae.”

“You’re just sarcastic, aren’t you?”

“Don’t fight, guys.”

Was it because he finished his transfer or because the transfer process was special? All of Jung Si-woo’s senses had risen compared to before, and just as Soo Ah-rin felt the density of mana through her breathing, Jung Si-woo was now sensing the difference between the environment and the earth with his five senses.

“The air itself is different. I’m glad I can breathe, but…for your information, it’s different from the place I went to the previous quest. There must be quite a few different worlds.”

“I can feel the divine power that I felt earlier in that small temple is very deeply distributed here.”

That was Soo Ah-rin’s words. This space, which has a very high ceiling and a very wide hallway, didn’t look similar in the slightest to the temple that Jung Si-woo destroyed earlier.

“This place is huge. Its inherent power, and the threat inside too…”

Jung Si-woo held a sledgehammer in each hand. Since a little while ago, powerful energy was felt everywhere compared to the monster he faced at Mount Tengu. It was flocking toward the place where Jung Si-woo appeared.

“It’s because the stagnant mana of the temple had been broken by our appearance. But it can’t pinpoint where we are.”

“Hyeong-nim, what will we do?”

“We’ve already decided what to do earlier.”

It didn’t matter if they noticed Jung Si-woo. Although he fell into a temple that looked very eye-catching, it wasn’t like they were trying to explore its secrets.

“Just break everything that you see.”

As soon as Jung Si-woo murmured to himself, a message popped up above his retina with good timing.

[You have entered the temple of the thunder god Laia, which exists in the world of Eiriha. By destroying this place perfectly, you can reduce the thunder god Laia’s influence on the earth by 3.6 percent.]

“Thunder god?”

He had heard of it from somewhere and soon remembered that his rifle was made from a part of the thunder god. However, when he decided to destroy the temple with gratitude, the rest of the message filled his retina.

[But if you move too loudly, the grace of Laia, the thunder god, may fall on the guardians, raising the risk here.]

[The passage to earth will be maintained for the next five hours. Destroy the temple and the Guardians as much as possible and get out before the passage closes.]

“Five hours.”

Jung Si-woo mumbled and held his two hammers firmly. He roughly estimated the size of the temple and concluded that they shouldn’t move passively if they wanted to destroy it within five hours. In the first place, the words destruction and concealment were incompatible. He didn’t care what the thunder god Laia’s grace was and what the Guardians said. He needed to create a scene of mass slaughter and destruction like a destroyer!

“Okay, let’s get started.”

“Oh, that’s it.”

“There’s nothing like that to break a temple…”

What Jung Si-woo took out from his inventory was Caina’s Malice, the Dullahan’s head. Still well protected by a hard, sharp helmet, it was a throwing weapon that maximized destructive power when you threw it at something! He would deny the power of God with all the undead’s grudges!

“Of course, we can’t ignore the possibility of Caina being consumed because of the divine power!”

“Now you’re calling it a pet name. You must’ve liked it, Hyeong-nim.”

“Uh, don’t show me your other side.”

Jung Si-woo thought about putting accessories on his neck to get rid of that fear, and the next moment, he swung the giant’s roar with a full swing and knocked away Caina’s Malice!

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”

“Hye, Hyeong-nim! If you do that if you do that…!”

The moment it hit the massive pillar of the underground temple, spiderweb-like thread ran down the pillar around the head of the temple, and the next moment, it was crushed with a truly magnificent sound effect!

[Break rate: 5%]

“That’s why it’s important to start with the roots of the pillars!

“The ceiling, the ceiling is shaking!”

Caina’s Malice was summoned right into the air before his hammer after the pillar was destroyed. Jung Si-woo swung the sledgehammer once more, firing Caina’s Malice while swinging the giant’s roar with all his might to smash the temple floor! Cracks began to spider out around the place where he was located as debris was kicked up.

[Break rate: 7%]

“What the hell, this is easy!

“What are you talking about so easy! There’s a monster!

The whole column was crumbling, and the floor was collapsing. How could you not be caught? Monsters who were already searching for intruders rushed straight to the scene of the commotion! Surprisingly, they looked very much like the Lizardman, but the difference was that they were much larger than them and had a sergeant leading them.

[Intruder! Intruder!]

[How dare you destroy the temple! Destroy him!]

[Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!]

“Hoo.”

Looking at their approach, Jung Si-woo swung the sledgehammer and fired Caina diagonally. Caina soared with fierce force and smashed the ceiling, causing debris to fall down on the Lizardmen.

[Break rate: 8%]

[Krrrrrrrrrrrr]

[Ho, holy temple!]

“Nice!”

“Why is he playing the shooting game alone when we’re supposed to be infiltrating…?”

There was no more hesitation in Jung Si-woo’s movement! He broke the floor with every step he took, hitting Caina nonstop and destroying the pillars and walls of the temple’s basement. The Lizardman that found the intruder had no choice but to be crushed by the falling debris from the building without being able to close the distance.

“It’s easy because we don’t have to do money or bead sorting.”

“Hyeong-nim, it’s coming from behind!”

“Really? Hmph!”

[Kyaaaaaak!]

If he threw the Caina back and broke the ceiling, everything would be solved! As the ceilings collapsed here and there, the underground columns were knocked over, and the corridor walls were destroyed. This happened just within three minutes after Jung Si-woo began to act.

[Break rate: 11%]

[The intruder is over there!]

[Kill him! Kill the intruder!]

[Take care of the underground warehouse!]

“Underground warehouse?”

Jung Si-woo heard some information that intrigued him. He expanded his senses by spreading mana widely throughout his body, reading where the rest of them were moving.

“Is it over there? I don’t know the exact location…hum, I should have made five senses one of my skills.”

“Think about it later, over there! They’re coming from eleven o’clock!”

It wasn’t just the monsters who were staying underground. Thanks to Jung Si-woo piercing the ceiling and connecting the first floor and the basement, the Lizardmen on the first floor were running down the stairs. He smashed another pillar and ran toward the basement warehouse.

[Human has noticed!]

[Kill him!]

[Kill!]

Perhaps there was a wizard among the guardians of the temple because a freeze attack hit Jung Si-woo’s whole body. He sensed the attack but couldn’t avoid it! It was comforting that the impact wasn’t significant, thanks to his instinctive invocation of Stone Skin.

“That’s a mess…uh, wait, if we keep getting hit like this, I’ll get resistance.”

“Just being hit can’t make you resistant, so don’t think too much and avoid it!”

“I won’t avoid it anymore. I’m just going to break everything!”

Jung Si-woo hit the huge pillar in front of him with the front paw. Boom! He heard a bomb drop, and the pillar leaned forward and collapsed in a single swing!

[Break rate: 13.5%]

[Kuuaak!]

[Kihaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!]

A group of Lizardman warriors that almost caught up with him was beaten away by the collapsing giant pillar. It was thanks to Jung Si-woo’s quick takedown of the pillar at an amazing angle like he had eyes in the back of his head.

“As expected, destruction is the trick.”

“Oh, my God, how many in one room…uh, Seonbae, are they a low level?

“No matter how low they are, they can’t be lower than an armored orc. More than that, I don’t know what this temple building is made of, but its durability is abnormally high, so its attack power is great. It’s clear from the pain of the Lizardmen being struck by debris.”

“And now you’re looking at that weird architecture…”

“He’s the man who caught a thousand armored oaks before. What’s new?”

Jung Si-woo wasn’t even using the power skill to save his strength with mana. He was destroying the temple with only Grant and Strength skills! The passive skill Heavy Weapon Battle also had a positive impact, but now he was using destructive power that would suit the term siege weapon.

“This is all sorted out. Oh, they’re coming in from five o’clock…”

“Let’s target the other side rather than those.”

At that time, Jung Si-woo, who shot back then retrieved Caina and collapsed another wall, passed the temple hallway and turned left, quickly finding another group of Lizardmen running down the hallway.

“Okay, let’s go!

“Mana reaction! It’s a trap!”

“I know!”

But there was no time to destroy each trap in a leisurely manner now that the pursuers were flocking behind them! Jung Si-woo tore down the nearby pillar and threw it into the hallway. That alone triggered the trap that didn’t respond to the Lizardmen. A lightning trap to match the name of the lightning god. Along with a pitfall full of thorns, flying arrows, and poisonous gases…they all hit the shrapnel thrown at the speed of light and were destroyed.

[Break rate: 16%]

“Okay, let’s go!”

“I’ve never seen such an ignorant trap breakthrough…”

Jung Si-woo tore rock free from the temple and threw it forward before running after it. However, when he was about to break through the hallway, the walls on both sides of the collapsed, and the Lizardmen, who was hiding behind it, appeared.

[You will die here!]

[Taste the will of the thunder god!]

Dozens of blue-glossy mana reinforced spears flew toward Jung Si-woo! The pursuers who had not been killed by Caina were following close behind; spears readied to jab straight into his back. In the first place, they intended to lure Jung Si-woo to death.

“Huh!”

However, Jung Si-woo’s choice was as simple as always. He casually threw himself into the spears, triggering Cruel Charge. In fact, it was accurate to say that his speed was too fast to be stopped short.

[Cruuuru!]

[Die!]

“Ha!”

[Kk, Klook?]

[Cooooaaak]

The Lizardmen cheered for victory and expected his death, but the next minute they collided with Jung Si-woo and bounced off like bowling pins. Their thin spears couldn’t get rid of the impact of the crash!

“Whoa, that hurt.”

“You don’t look like you’re in pain at all…”

Jung Si-woo stopped in place only after he completely broke through the hallway. The Lizardmen, who were chasing after him, was surprised to see Jung Si-woo standing proudly with spears in his body.

[Mon, monster…]

[It’s a monster…]

“You’re talking to your in-laws, you bastards.”

Anyway, the Lizardmen were overwhelmed by him and couldn’t move properly. Now was the time to catch his breath. Jung Si-woo left Yong Se-ha on guard and pulled out the spears stuck in his arm and abdomen. He somehow protected only his heart and head, but he didn’t seem to have damaged bones or muscles. Maybe the armor was stronger than he thought, or the defense of the Cruel Charge was good.

“Hang in there, Oppa.”

“Uh, I don’t think I need to heal.”

“Be quiet.”

Jung Si-woo pulled out all the spears under Soo Ah-rin’s healing magic. He gathered them and held them in one hand; then, he lightly threw them at the Lizardmen who were unable to move. Overwhelmed by his momentum, the Lizardmen were unable to resist or move as they were slaughtered. Jung Si-woo became lost in thought as he prepared for their next move.

Huh, no matter how scared they are, they didn’t move even when their life was threatened? Only then did Jung Si-woo realize that the dignity of his passive skills influenced them.

“I can’t believe scary behavior maximizes the effect…that’s a good skill.”

“Please don’t skewer your body to maximize your skills in the future.”

“Let’s think about that later.”

Jung Si-woo ignored Soo Ah-rin’s grunt flow with a refreshed smile. He shot Caina again, collapsing the hall he had just passed through.

Then, he was in the warehouse.

“Oh, this is pretty interesting.”

[Krrrrrrrrrrrrrr…I will kill the lowly humans who challenge God’s authority.]

[Kihaaaaaa!]

Jung Si-woo’s excitement mounted as the warehouse’s watchman confronted him.
