The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

Chapter 351

The Mechans, who had transformed into a giant robot by merging with the destroyed spaceship.

Although their presence itself was intense, they were not a difficult opponent for Sung JiHan.

Just by thrusting his spear, he could easily destroy the robot in one blow.

However, Sung JiHan chose not to reveal this and instead put on a delighted expression.

"They might be related to the Sun King, so we should proceed cautiously."

The Great Sun King, who was chasing after traces of the Red Administrator.

It was best not to use the power of stats as much as possible against enemies who seemed to be related to him.

Sssss...

As Sung JiHan amplified the Void, the Dark Eclipse grew stronger.

The Void Martial Arts.

The Shadow Divine Art.

The Shadow Divine Sword.

The sword that shot up into the sky in an instant sliced through the giant robot.

The Mechans were instantly engulfed by the Dark Eclipse.

Although the burning light tried to dispel the shadows...

Shuuu...

The flames that pierced through the shadows flickered a few times before being swallowed by darkness.

"Sung JiHan, the player, subdues the Mechans that merged with the spaceship with a single sword!"

"Even though they seemed quite strong, being able to utilize the structures of the map... Sung JiHan is truly amazing!"

"We tried to take their blood and flesh by any means necessary, but we couldn't even touch a hair of Sung JiHan!"

When the 19 representatives of humanity were annihilated and the giant robot appeared, it seemed that the opponent would not be easy.

Sung JiHan, wearing a mask, easily swallowed the powerful enemy in one strike.

"Now he's just on another level, Sung JiHan."

"Even though it seemed like he had the advantage against the Mechans, he ended it in one blow..."

"Well, Sung JiHan was flying around even in the Glass Map against the elves, so it's not surprising that he's superior to the Mechans."

"Well, they are weaker than the elves, after all."

"But still, I thought the robot's size made it a bit dangerous."

"Maybe the Mechans released Sung JiHan for the four matches because they knew the opponent wouldn't stand a chance..."

Those who were nervous just by looking at the Mechans' merged form waited for the results of the four matches with a sense of relief.

That's how the game seemed to end in an instant.

But...

"I almost got pierced through."

Sung JiHan watched the Dark Eclipse with a dissatisfied expression.

The giant robot, trapped in darkness, was trying to emit the power of the sun from within.

Now it had stopped rebelling and had been engulfed by shadows.

If Sung JiHan hadn't used the delighted expression to amplify the Void, the Dark Eclipse would have been repelled by the light.

"It's skillful to mix the Void with the Shadow Sword and amplify its power... It's truly an enviable ability. However, there are still some areas for improvement in utilizing shadows."

Even the Shadow Queen, who had experienced the Shadow Sword firsthand within the Eclipse, admired the use of the Void but made a cold comment about the Shadow Sword.

"I've been neglecting the Shadow Divine Art for a while. There are definitely elements that can be further developed."

The Shadow Divine Art, which formed one axis among the Void Martial Arts.

While the Thunder Divine Art had evolved into the Lightning Divine Art and even reached the level of stats thanks to Sung JiHan...

The Shadow Divine Art had been lagging behind in its development.

"I thought that mixing the power of life would produce some results, but there haven't been any visible achievements so far..."

The Shadow Sword, which had been renamed the Shadow of Life.

According to the Battle.net description, there was a possibility for the sword's grade to reach up to EX depending on the manipulation of power.

But for now, it was barely maintaining the power of SSS, let alone reaching EX.

"There must be a reason why the God of War chose the Thunder Divine Art and then the Shadow Divine Art."

I've developed my stats to a certain extent, so now I should focus on researching the power of shadows.

Sung JiHan thought this and examined the Mechan that had been completely consumed by the Shadow Sword.

It seemed to be related to the power of the Sun King, as it emitted an eerie power.

The robot that had been consumed by the shadows was now just a pile of scrap metal, not worth salvaging.

[Void has increased by 1.]

"No loot, just an increase in Void."

Sung JiHan clicked his tongue and took off his mask.

Then, he noticed the weakening power of the Shadow Sword.

The shadow that had enveloped the entire giant robot and even blocked out the sunlight had shrunk by more than half.

Gradually, light began to shine through.

"Is the game not over yet?"

Sung JiHan thought this.

Squirm.

Movement was observed in the wreckage of the fallen robot.

The wreckage, trying to recover as it received sunlight.

"Persistent."

Sung JiHan was about to destroy the wreckage.

Ziiiiing...

[Identifying opponent's power as Void.]

[Excluding target player from of interest.]

Whirrr...

Just like when Sung JiHan wrote the code, characters that only he could recognize appeared above the wreckage.

And as the characters disappeared, the wreckage exploded, revealing a sparkling object within.

"What is that?"

Sung JiHan floated the object and brought it to himself.

[Obtained 'Terminal of the Destroyed Sun'.]

Then, a message appeared.

Sung JiHan tried to examine the item closely, but...

[The 4th match has ended.]

[Human representative team wins.]

Before that, the opponent was processed as dead, and the game ended.

* * *

[Ranked 1 in humanity, an absurd existence.]

After the 4th match.

Mechan Director briefly evaluated the match.

[However, we will withdraw the proposal we made earlier.]

"You mean if I give blood, you'll pass on the technology of cloning humans?"

[Yes. His display of power beyond the standard is due to the Void, which is not the physicality we pursue.]

"Well... do as you please."

Since Sung JiHan had no intention of giving blood anyway, why bother talking as if it were a great proposal?

Davis, the director, nodded with a sullen face.

[However, there is still some research value, so if you provide blood and flesh later, we will concede one victory.]

"No need to concede. I'll win even then."

The two directors exchanged these words.

Sung JiHan, who had emerged from the game, thought while watching the scene.

"Now that I've eliminated the Void, their interest in me has disappeared."

Were those guys really just the Sun King's lackeys?

Sung JiHan took out an item he had obtained a little while ago.

[Terminal of the Destroyed Sun]

- Grade: F

- After use, the terminal that has completely depleted the power of the sun.

- It cannot be recharged, so it has no value.

When he first acquired it, the terminal of the sun was sparkling, but now it was a dull yellow stone-like appearance, as described in the item description on the BattleNet. It seemed completely useless.

"What kind of loot is this even if I get it?"

Should I just throw it away?

As Sung JiHan examined the yellow stone, he suddenly thought of the Throne of the Dead Star.

"Come to think of it, that guy betrayed the Sun King."

The Throne of the Dead Star, which had the slave mark of the Sun King. It was an item that was useless anyway, so should he give it to that guy?

Even if the Throne of the Dead Star constantly made him lose his mind, when it came to weighing the pros and cons, he had helped Sung JiHan a lot.

Thinking that, Sung JiHan sent a message to the Throne of the Dead Star.

"I obtained an item called the Terminal of the Destroyed Sun this time. Do you need it?"

Then, a message immediately came up without even a second passing.

"Sponsor Throne 'Throne of the Dead Star' sends an urgent message."

"Where did you get the Terminal of the Sun? They want to have a brief 1:1 conversation."

When Sung JiHan accepted it,

Sssss...

In front of him, a transparent skull appeared.

"Skull! The Terminal of the Sun? How do you have that?"

"I got it from Mechan."

"Mechan? Who are they? Ah... wait. These guys are the species that keep staying in the Bronze League, right? Did you shoot BattleTube this time? You shot it. I'll refer to the video."

With just one word from Mechan, the Throne of the Dead Star immediately stopped analyzing the data.

And the eyes of the transparent skull head sparkled with a blue light.

Tap. Tap.

"These bastards... Did they aim for your flesh and blood? How dare they try to replicate my head. They've crossed the line."

After hearing about Sung JiHan's replication plan, the Throne of the Dead Star expressed its anger by touching its head.

"Have you already watched the video?"

"Yeah. I skimmed through it at 1000x speed. Well, using the power of the sun alone, I can't be sure of the connection with the Sun King. But the Terminal of the Sun... that's a different story."

As he said that, Kaelin opened his mouth.

Then, a small black whirlwind appeared in the mouth of the transparent skull head.

"Can you throw that terminal to me?"

"What are you going to give me?"

"Hehe... If it's a real Terminal of the Sun, I'll reward you!"

"Okay."

Whoosh.

Sung JiHan threw the Terminal of the Sun into the whirlwind.

Sssss...

"Wow, it really is the Terminal of the Sun... Such a machine civilization was a subordinate of the Sun King. Unexpected."

Snap.

A red light appeared in Kaelin's skull eyes.

"As for the reward for this incident... I'll attack and transmit to the Mechan planet."

"Attack the planet?"

"Well, hehe. I found the Sun King's weak spot, so of course I have to turn it upside down. Through the terminal, I can also find the coordinates of Mechan... All the conditions are met."

"Is it okay for the Holy See to just go in as they please, just because they obtained one piece of evidence with a stone?"

Sung JiHan had a momentary doubt.

"Well, it's good for us."

Mecan is not only Sung JiHan's competitor in the Bronze League, but also a formidable opponent with the background of being the Sun King.

If the Seat of the Dead Star were to attack here, it would be advantageous for us.

"Alright. Finish the attack and give it to me."

"Got it. I'll reluctantly give it to you~!"

Shuuuu.

With those words, the skull head quickly disappeared.

"Even just restraining Mecan would be rewarding."

Sung JiHan thought so as he looked at the screen, hoping to be selected as the series MVP.

Unlike when Yoon Se-jin won the MVP in three games, the MVP selection did not add any positive reputation to Sung JiHan's fame.

"I will never win the MVP next time."

Sung JiHan made up his mind as he looked at the motionless system message window.

* * *

[Sung JiHan, the VIP member, becomes a reliable pillar of humanity.]

[Is this the future of humanity? Mecan, who showed only his brain remaining.]

[Mecan coach, who mentioned emptiness with Sung JiHan's power. What is emptiness?]

[Seat of the Shadow Queen, revealing her presence.]

[A housemaid who worked at the penthouse, selling Sung JiHan's hair for 50 million won and getting reported to the police.]

The final score was 3:1, a victory against Mecan.

Looking at the score alone, it was a landslide victory for humanity, but the actual content of the game showed that humanity heavily relied on Sung JiHan.

-Once again, Sung JiHan owes a debt.

-Once again? Forever, haha.

-That's right, he's a verified bus driver. He should keep driving, haha.

-What's with the housemaid scammer, lol. Are there really buyers for hair?

-But if they're buying genuine hair, they could go to the Battle.net Research Lab for 50 million won...

"The person who was arrested turned out not to be the person who came before."

Yoon Se-ah opened her mouth while reading the article about the 50 million won hair.

"Really?"

"Yeah. I called just in case. The person mentioned in the article is just a scammer. But... there seem to be some people who dig through the trash we throw away."

"Why?"

"Well... to see if there's any of Uncle's saliva or something."

"Huh, there's all sorts of things."

Sung JiHan furrowed his brow.

Because of those Mecan bastards, he had somehow become a walking lottery ticket.

"I wish Kallein would give him some proper education."

While Sung JiHan was thinking that, a message arrived for him.

"Thanks to you, I was able to destroy the Sun King's arrogance. Thank you once again."

Already?

How long has it been since I gave him the stone?

Sung JiHan was dumbfounded by Kallein's message, but...

"So, I've prepared a decent token of gratitude."

"Oh?"

He turned his interest towards the story of receiving an item.

"Would you like to receive a special reward from the Seat of the Dead Star?"

Shall we see what it is?

Sung JiHan pressed yes.
