Chapter 368: Torrent (3)
Gi-Gyu studied the door that led to the 90th floor.
Why dont you rest a bit? Tae-Shik suggested. He could feel Gi-Gyus aura had changed a bit, and Tae-Shik could also feel an unfamiliar energy inside him.
Behind that door, on the 90th floor, there is Lee Sun-Ho, thought Tae-Shik worriedly. He knew Gi-Gyu meeting Lee Sun-Ho would lead to something bad.
I think we should take a break here for a while, Tae-Shik insisted, much more firmly this time.
I agree with him.
Grandmaster, I believe its a good idea too.Fiind updated novels at novelhall.com
Go Hyung-Chul and Haures approached Gi-Gyu as well and agreed with Tae-Shik. It was hard to tell if Gi-Gyu had planned to rest anyway or if his creatures had convinced him, but he ultimately nodded. Tae-Shik, Go Hyung-Chul, and Haures brightened in relief.
Gi-Gyu looked away from the door and turned toward Kang Ji-Hee and the Angela Guild members. With them was a man Gi-Gyu hadnt expected to see standing. It was Deputy Guild Master Lim Hyun-Soo who had woken up the day they had entered the 89th floor.
Gi-Gyu walked toward them and called out, Deputy Guild Master Kang Ji-Hee.
He also addressed Lim Hyun-Soo, And Deputy Guild Master Lim Hyun-Soo, may we chat for a moment?
Kang Ji-Hee replied, All right, but Deputy Guild Master Lim Hyun-Soo is still not doing well, so please give him a little time.
Okay, go ahead. I wanted to rest before entering the 90th floor anyway.
Kang Ji-Hee nodded to thank Gi-Gyu. Gi-Gyu turned toward Lim Hyun-Soo. Their eyes met, but Lim Hyun-Soo still looked dazed; his eyes remained blank. Gi-Gyu turned away, realizing that Oh Tae-Shik was right. They all needed time to rest before entering the 90th floor.
I need to organize my thoughts. Thousands of years of memories had been injected into Gi-Gyu. In fact, there were two sets of memories, and it was difficult to determine the amount of information they contained. The aftermath of such a forceful injection was greater than anyone could have had imagined.
This must be the side effect of the sync ability Gi-Gyu remembered how something similar had driven Jupiter to insanity. He could retain his consciousness for now, but he could feel overwhelming confusion slowly setting in.
Who am I? Gi-Gyu began to question his identity. Was he really Gi-Gyu? Or was he now Lou, El, or any other one of his Egos?
***
Haa Lou sighed deeply. He was killing his enemies by the thousands, but those black monsters just kept coming back from the dead.
Lou muttered, Its just like before. Im so sick of it.
No matter how many times he killed these monsters, they returned. He had experienced something similar many times before. It was annoying that he, the former hell king, was having such difficulty, but this was no time for self-pity. He looked ahead to see Koios, the traitor of the great Titans, fighting fearlessly. Titans had gone extinct now, but they once ruled an entire dimension. Koios was drowning in those black monsters, but he didnt seem to care that the monsters were destroying his body.
Tsk. Lou clicked his tongue and raised his hand toward Koios to pulverize all the monsters on top of him.
Kwarrrk! Koios nodded toward Lou in thanks.
The situation in the other areas of the battlefield was even worse. They hadnt experienced any casualties yet, thanks to El, but most of their allies looked exhausted.
And that old man sure is doing well, Lou thought in surprise as he watched Oh Tae-Gu and the other players fighting together. Oh Tae-Gu was so powerful that he managed to impress Lou.
But I guess I shouldnt be surprised. Lou knew that Oh Tae-Gu was special. He was one of the special few who knew about Lou and Els forgotten memories. He was obviously one of Gaias chosen ones.
Lou moved on autopilot, continuously killing monsters effortlessly while thinking about the memories he had recovered.
Gehenna They were inside Chaos' stomach. Chaos was asleep in the Towers basement, and Gehenna was Chaoss stomach. It was a world of confusion born inside Chaos. Kronos, Lou, El, and many other powerful figures had gotten trapped here after Gods death.
Lim Hyun-Soo continued, The problem actually occurred on the 83rd floor. Because of the sudden appearance of a figure. We had no idea who he was, but it looked like our guild master knew him.
Someone the Angela Guild players didnt know, but Lee Sun-Ho did And this figure appeared on the 83rd floor, Gi-Gyu thought with interest. At the time, the Angela Guild had barely conquered the floor before. However, someone had already been waiting for them on the 83rd floor.
Who was this figure?
We dont know anything about this figure, including their gender or name. This creature wanted to speak to our guild master, and when their conversation was over
Gi-Gyu noticed that Kang Ji-Hee was trembling, perhaps from remembering what she had seen then.
Lim Hyun-Soo continued, Our guild master returned wounded. But it wasnt an external injury.
Lim Hyun-Soo didnt bother explaining the injury because he assumed Gi-Gyu knew about it.
Gi-Gyu mumbled, This was why Lee Sun-Ho needed the elixir.
When he had first met Lee Sun-Ho, Lee Sun-Ho wanted the elixir. At the time, Soo-Jung had stated that Lee Sun-Hos shell was polluted. Gi-Gyu hadnt known what she had meant then, but he did now.
This figure on the 83rd floor and Lee Sun-Ho must have fought. Its obvious he was after Lee Sun-Hos shell. Gi-Gyu assumed that this figures target was Lee Sun-Hos shell. Back then, Gi-Gyu had no idea how badly Lee Shun-Hos shell was damaged.
But I know now. It was so badly damaged that even the elixir couldnt fix it.
Soo-Jung had said that even the elixir couldnt eliminate all the pollutants from Lee Sun-Hos shell. Apparently, the elixir had only slowed down the deterioration.
After receiving the elixir from Lucifer, our guild master seemingly got better, Lim Hyun-Soo added. So it appeared that the elixir had helped a little. He was focusing on purifying himself when a problem occurred inside him.
Was it because of Ha Song-Su? asked Gi-Gyu.
Lim Hyun-Soo nodded. Kang Ji-Hee, who had been tight-lipped until now, seemed ready to spill the beans. It wasnt because she was afraid of Gi-Gyus warning. She was ready because Lim Hyun-Soo was talking freely. The fact that he was openly giving away this sensitive information meant that something had happened to their guild master. Kang Ji-Hee could tell that Lim Hyun-Soo was desperate for Gi-Gyus help.
Is it because of the wound from Ha Song-Sus attack? Gi-Gyu asked again. Gi-Gyu was thankful to Lee Sun-Ho for one thing he had done. When they had first met, he had seemed hostile. However, when Ha Song-Su had attacked Gi-Gyus family, Lee Sun-Ho had helped them. This had injured him and forced him to go into hiding.
Thats correct. That battle worsened his condition, and it became so bad that our guild master needed to be sealed away. This was why we came into the Tower. We needed to find a solution.
Gi-Gyu nodded and asked, Then who did Lee Sun-Ho become?
...! Lim Hyun-Soos eyes widened. How did you know that?!
But Gi-Gyu never got the chance to hear an answer.
Creak!
What the! Lim Hyun-Soo flinched when a strange noise rang.
Dragon knight order! In position! Now! Hal ordered when something unexpected happened.
Go Hyung-Chul yelled, Why is the door to the 90th-floor opening?!
No one had opened the door from their side.
Someones coming out, Gi-Gyu thought in anticipation. Tension filled the air, and when the figure appeared, Gi-Gyus eyes widened.
...!
