Seong Jihan used all his strength to write just one character but its aftermath was beyond imagination.
The golden ceiling instantly lost its light.
It quickly turned into a black space and disappeared.
And
No!
It wasnt just the ceiling where the character was written that disappeared, the golden chains binding Longinus, the walls and floor of this level, as if the destruction was contagious, they all turned into a black space in an instant.
This, this power Is it the power of destruction possessed by the Spear of Judgment? How did you already
Gilgamesh looked at the disappearing space with a surprised expression.
He stood on twin swords instead of his feet that had no place to stand and asked Seong Jihan in a trembling voice.
You said you were trying to go to the rooftop, but its gone, isnt it?
Answer my question!
Why should I?
Seong Jihan scoffed at the agitated Gilgamesh and looked up again.
Above the vanished ceiling was the sky of Tuseong that he had seen before.
Just like that world where the constellations weapons floated like stars in the darkness resembling the universe, Numerous weapons were floating in the sky, but unlike the real Tuseong, the power of constellations wasnt felt from there.
Since this was a virtual world, they probably didnt implement the constellations power.
This was the top floor of this tower from the beginning.
What is the primordial treasure?
The dungeon map Tuseong.
The victory condition of this map was to reach the end of the tower first and claim the primordial treasure.
They had already reached the top floor.
Now, if they just claim the primordial treasure, they would win the 5th match.
The one who answered Seong Jihans question was.
[How did you use the power of the Spear of Judgment If you answer this question, I will tell you.]
Longinus, who had been quietly looking at the ceiling in the state of a blood-red steel giant.
Do you even know?
[I know. If by chance the item I know isnt the primordial treasure, I promise not to kill you when I descend to Earth.]
A promise, huh.
Seong Jihan chuckled.
How can I trust the words of these guys?
I can use my power without permission like you. So I did some research. Getting pierced by your Spear of Judgment last time was a big help.
He spoke only superficially, leaving out the core.
[That research has already borne fruit In this short time?]
Yes.
[I cant believe it]
Then dont believe it.
[Okay. Its really hard to believe. Release me, Gilgamesh. I need to fight him and take that attack myself.]
At that, Longinus stepped up to fight Seong Jihan rather than talking about the primordial treasure.
But Gilgamesh shook his head at him.
Its already too late.
[What? Why?]
His power directly hit the entire tower. In this state, I can no longer maintain this virtual space.
While saying that, Gilgamesh pointed his finger downward.
There, the towering golden tower was seen disappearing in an instant.
[No With just one pattern written on the ceiling?]
That is the power possessed by the authority of destruction.
[Ha.]
Swoosh
As Longinus sighed, the chains binding him loosened.
The body of the steel giant also gradually became transparent and disappeared.
The chains that had restrained him but also helped maintain his existence in this space.
As they disappeared, Longinus existence was naturally expelled from here.
And
Where the golden chains and Longinus had all disappeared.
Swoosh
A huge sphere wrapped tightly in pure white bandages floated up.
The primordial treasure is there.
That thing?
Yes. If you become its owner, you will win. The Korean national team will be victorious. However, if you fail to become the owner The victory will go to the United States.
At those words, Seong Jihan looked down.
There are no survivors though?
What do you mean theres none?
At those words, Gilgamesh reached out his hand toward the huge sphere.
Whirl!
Then, something extended from inside it.
At first, I thought it was the golden chains Gilgamesh had been using.
=Uh what is this? There are people twisted together Only the face at the very end is properly revealed.
=This, this person. Its Oliver! He had disappeared earlier, transforming into a golden chain
=I was wondering why he wasnt processed as dead, so he was here, huh!!
What came out of the sphere was a human rope with only the head intact.
The whole body was twisted, leaving only the head.
-Ah, I thought the match was going to end with Koreas victory, but what is that?
-It looks like just a rope with a head attached.
-If you look closely at the rope, it feels like flesh is wriggling If you zoom in, you can see more
-Ah, dont look at such things closely
-The expression also looks like hes on drugs. Why does he look so ecstatic;
It wasnt just Oliver who came out as a human rope like that.
Ugh
Heh
Not only Americans but the Korean national team players were also popping out as ropes with only their heads left, with a dazed expression.
Like this, the entire national team survived. Rather, your Korean team is at a numerical disadvantage thanks to the two who logged out.
Are those who turned into ropes like that also survivors?
Of course. Rather, they will be rejoicing in the most vigorous vitality of their lives.
Swoosh!
While saying that, Gilgamesh raised his hand.
If you take that, the game ends. But even you find that suspicious, dont you?
Yeah, it looks so unpleasant that I dont want to touch it, even if its a one-dimensional trap.
If you answer my earlier question, I will process it nicely for you.
What? About the power of destruction?
Yes.
What I told Longinus earlier is all there is to it.
At Seong Jihans words lacking substance, Gilgamesh raised the corner of his mouth.
As expected, you wont obediently listen I have no choice but to use force.
Didnt you say you cant maintain the virtual space any longer?
Yes, without the host Longinus, I couldnt maintain the existing tower
Swoosh!
While saying that, Gilgamesh pointed his finger at Seong Jihan.
But theres a new host to stay in right here, isnt there.
Dont tell me, you mean me?
Yes. Try surpassing my authority like Longinus for once.
Swish!
Human ropes extending from the bandages towards Seong Jihan all at once.
My authority is the World Tree itself.
Seeing that, he continued.
This is merely the roots.
Aaaah!
Seong Jihan! You too Come here!
Lets be together!
The Korean-American national team players who turned into ropes and flew towards Seong Jihan.
The commentators couldnt hide their shock at the sight.
=Ah what is this..?
=Ba-Barren is at the forefront, trying to bite Seong Jihan!
=To think the final match of the finals would proceed like this
The last match, which was expected to be a fierce competition.
As the King of Humans appeared, it proceeded strangely, and in the end, it showed all the players being ruined.
-Its like ghosts with only faces are chasing him
-Ah, Ha yeonjoo is there too
-Cant they just give Korea the victory and end the match? Seeing my idols transformed like that breaks my heart, I cant watch.
-They will return to normal after this match ends, right?
-Isnt Seong Jihan hesitating to respond properly because of misplaced camaraderie?
As the rankers who dominated the world became like that, a considerable number of viewers said they couldnt bear to watch and turned off the TV.
Some people were worried that Seong Jihan might not be able to deal with them decisively after seeing them.
But
Annoying.
Slash!
Seong Jihan cut off their heads with a single stroke.
He mercilessly sliced off the heads of the Korean national team members who were his allies.
Even with the faces of comrades, there is no hesitation in the movement of your sword. A good attitude.
Gilgamesh was approvingly evaluating Seong Jihans sword from behind.
The same goes for you, right?
Hmm
Fundamental Divine Arts, Heavenly Dragon Thunder Fire Dragon Thunder
Seong Jihans Phoenix Flag poured Dragon Thunder towards Gilgamesh.
Zap!
Then, Yoon Sejins body lifted the twin swords supporting his feet to block the Dragon Thunder.
He raised the corner of his mouth at Seong Jihan.
Heh. Wasnt this body your brother-in-law?
Its fine, I wanted to kill you second after Shizuru before.
While saying that, Seong Jihan attacked mercilessly.
Clang! Clang!
Yoon Sejins twin swords moved quite nimbly and blocked Seong Jihans attacks a few times.
Hmph!
Slash!
But the difference between the two was already stark.
Seong Jihans spear cut off Yoon Sejins right arm.
And soon after, it pierced his heart and head twice with the spear.
And as fire erupted from the spear.
Crackle!
Yoon Sejins body quickly burned and disappeared.
-Camaraderie, my ass
-Merciless, right?
-Yoon Sejin lacked proper discipline back when he was the Japanese Sword King
-It was annoying how he was possessed by Gilgamesh and chattering next to him, but how hes getting crushed by him just like that.
The viewers who thought Seong Jihan might hesitate cheered at his merciless strike.
And Seong Jihan, who dealt with Yoon Sejin behind him.
Lets be together!
While cutting off the regenerating heads, he focused his firepower on the bandaged sphere.
Fundamental Divine Arts, Heavenly Dragon Thunder Fire Dragon Thunder
The Phoenix Flag shot towards the sky.
It soon created a huge fissure and poured out intense flames from it.
The Dragons Breath that swept away the US national team along with the terrain in 1st and 2nd match.
That intense firepower was concentrated on a single entity.
The bandaged sphere.
Crackle!
The bandaged sphere was quickly engulfed in flames and disappeared.
-Is it over?
-That was creepy for a final match, really
When people expected the bandaged sphere directly hit by the Dragons Breath to have disappeared like that.
Slither! Slither!
Bandages were generated in the air and began to wrap into a spherical shape again.
[What intense firepower. But without that power, it wont end.]
The bandages that seemed to have completely disappeared came back to life again.
Seong Jihan frowned.
After all, these things related to the World Tree are all immortal.
It feels like its telling me to keep using the Destruction code.
If it wants to be hit so blatantly like that, its usually a trap.
Moreover, he had used the Destruction code earlier, and it was too much to use it again.
A little while ago, he was at least in a buffed state, so the power didnt make him groggy.
But now, most of the buff effects have disappeared.
The Destruction code shouldnt be used unless he was absolutely certain.
Come in!
Zap!
Seong Jihan poured Dragon Thunder on Barrens head, which was reaching out towards him again.
Then he looked around once more.
The map that had turned completely black after the Tower of Babel disappeared.
However, the night sky far away, where the constellations weapons were floating, remained unaffected by the power of the Destruction code.
The constellations weapons that seemed to be just decorations, with no energy felt from them.
Oh, but
However, Seong Jihan felt something strange about the constellation of those weapons.
It seemed like the number had decreased by one compared to when he saw it a little while ago.
Stop resisting and join us. This is all for you.
Gilgamesh conveyed his intentions through the faces of the national team players.
No matter how much he killed them, they remained vigorous.
Seong Jihan looked at them for a moment.
Whoosh!
He turned his head and flew up into the sky.
Where are you going!
Lets be together!
Then the heads of the players followed Seong Jihan all at once.
But Seong Jihan ignored them and didnt stop ascending into the sky.
And
24 weapons. I feel the life force from one of them.
Among the constellations weapons adorning the sky, he discovered one weapon that contained the life force.
It was a small dagger.
A weapon that was hidden by the presence of other weapons and couldnt be seen from below.
Swoosh!
As Seong Jihan reached out to it.
[You have obtained the primordial treasure.]
[The match will end.]
The match end message suddenly appeared.
