All Master of 100 Floors Episode 128
Floor 24. Addicted City (1)
[Title: Hehe.]
[Ehehe.]
[Haa.]
[Ehe.]
[Oliver Kang (29th Floor): Ah… looks like you cleared the 24th Floor. Good work. I’ll pray for the day you return.]
[Choi Min-seok (27th Floor): It’ll probably take some time, won’t it? Someone I know still hasn’t come to their senses even after two months.]
* * *
Pixie’s Minor Miracle]
[Grade: Intermediate]
[Proficiency: F]
[Cooldown: 5 minutes]
[Pixie’s prayer brings a small miracle to the world.]
[2,000 Starlight.]
“This.”
Kang Jun-hyeok pointed at the skill with his finger.
“What exactly does miracle mean?”
[Ah. That skill? It’s simple.]
Pixie lightly raised her finger.
[I want to eat an apple.]
It was a prayer filled with her wish.
As soon as those words ended, an apple fell from the air into her hand.
Kang Jun-hyeok’s eyes widened.
“Realization of prayer?”
[That’s right.]
She munched on the apple. Though it was a normal-sized apple, it was as big as her torso, so the sight of her hugging it with both hands while eating was quite cute.
[Fairies are a race of fantasy. Since ancient times, many people have wished to meet fairies. Those beliefs and wishes accumulated, making fairies beings that bring luck and miracles. Though it’s more like a feeling-level effect.]
Ordinary fairies couldn’t control that luck. At best, it was close to being a bit luckier.
[But who am I? I’m Pixie, you know?]
A special fairy who traveled the entire world, collecting all things in existence.
Her power and status twist the world.
[I can partially manifest that luck and miracles.]
If you wish for an apple, an apple falls.
If you want water, a light rain falls.
If you wish for fire, fire blazes forth.
That was precisely Pixie’s miracle. Kang Jun-hyeok stroked his chin.
“Then what level is that limit?”
[…Well, that’s about the extent of the limit.]
Pixie made a groaning sound. If you wish for an apple, an apple appears; if you wish for fire, fire comes; if you wish for rain, rain can fall. Light wound treatment was also possible.
But that was exactly the limit. You couldn’t summon elaborate food, nor could you cause storms or fires that engulf the world. You couldn’t save someone who was dying. It was literally nothing more than small miracles.
[I can only do trivial things. For ordinary people, that alone would be sufficient miracle, but it probably wouldn’t be very useful to you, right?]
Pixie was right. It wasn’t worth purchasing while using up precious starlight.
However.
Kang Jun-hyeok quietly examined the skill.
‘Small miracle.’
And the cooldown was only 5 minutes.
With these conditions.
’30th Floor.’
The floor where tens of thousands of prayers must be answered.
It could be used there.
Having finished his calculations, Kang Jun-hyeok nodded.
“Good. I’ll purchase this skill next time.”
[…Really? What are you thinking this time? I’m looking forward to it.]
At the unexpected choice, Pixie showed an expression of interest. Kang Jun-hyeok closed the shop and opened the Lowest Grade Active Skill Box.
[Active Skill: Ground Leveling]
[Grade: Lowest Grade]
[Proficiency: F]
[Cooldown: 1 hour]
[Can make the ground flat.]
[Active Skill: Plant Growing]
[Grade: Lowest Grade]
[Proficiency: F]
[Cooldown: 5 minutes]
[Can grow plants at rapid speed.]
[Active Skill: Wall Clinging]
[Grade: Lowest Grade]
[Proficiency: F]
[Cooldown: 1 hour]
[Can cling to a wall for 1 minute.]
Seeing the skills, Kang Jun-hyeok let out a bitter laugh.
“Right. This is normal.”
Why don’t Players purchase Lowest Grade Skills?
It was precisely because skills like these existed that were hard to find practical uses for. It had been lucky that reasonably useful ones had appeared so far.
Still, the remaining two weren’t bad.
[Active Skill: Sound Amplification]
[Grade: Lowest Grade]
[Proficiency: F]
[Cooldown: 1 hour]
[Can greatly amplify the sounds you make.]
[Active Skill: Glowing]
[Grade: Lowest Grade]
[Proficiency: F]
[Cooldown: 30 minutes]
[Makes your body emit light for 30 minutes.]
Kang Jun-hyeok lightly tapped the floor as if knocking.
[Sound Amplification.]
Thud! Thud!
Then a tremendous sound rang out. It was like the sound of hammering concrete at a construction site. It was loud enough that people living nearby might mistake it for actual construction work.
Sound was one of the most fundamental concepts. If he could amplify the sound of tapping the floor to the level of hammering concrete, it could be useful in various situations.
And Glowing.
[Glowing.]
Kang Jun-hyeok’s body glowed. It brightly illuminated the surroundings as if he had become a light bulb. It was literally a skill that made his body glow, useful in places where visibility was poor.
“This isn’t too bad.”
Finally, all the checking was complete.
Kang Jun-hyeok spent the remaining time handling Divine Power a bit more. Since it was a power he hadn’t used in a while, he needed time to adapt.
And three days later.
Kang Jun-hyeok entered Floor 24.
What he saw there was a small city.
Of course, it wasn’t an ordinary city.
The city was completely shrouded in fog-like smoke.
[Floor 24 Quest.]
[Save the city soaked in poison for one month.]
* * *
Kang Jun-hyeok approached the city.
In a normal city, there should be those who guard the gates. Naturally, this city also had guards.
However, the guards were not in proper condition.
Like someone intoxicated by poison, he was sprawled on the floor, drooling. He showed no reaction even when Kang Jun-hyeok approached.
Creak.
Opening the door, he stepped inside. Along with an eerily strange silence, fog came rushing in.
And what he felt was the terrible aura of poison.
This wasn’t simple fog.
Poison had spread and was floating around the city in the form of mist.
The poison invaded his organs through his nose. It began melting his lungs and paralyzing his brain.
It destroyed human receptors and induced a state of euphoria.
Players were no exception to this. Most Players collapsed on the floor like the Guards the moment they entered the city, intoxicated by the poison.
During the month-long period, many suffered from aftereffects even after returning to Earth, poisoned by the drug.
But Kang Jun-hyeok possessed the Mental Immunity skill.
As long as he had that skill which had reached Proficiency B, he wouldn’t be affected by mere poison.
[Poison Resistance Proficiency has increased.]
[Poison Resistance Proficiency has increased.]
[Poison Resistance…]
Of course, as the poison’s toxic effects accumulated in his body, the Proficiency of his Poison Resistance skill continued to build up. Kang Jun-hyeok whistled as he strolled through the city.
Saving this poison-soaked city was the purpose of the Quest.
What needed to be done to achieve that?
Kang Jun-hyeok looked at the tall building in the center of the city.
The city’s Mayor was there.
First, he needed to meet the Mayor.
Kang Jun-hyeok moved forward. Since everyone was sprawled out, soaked in poison, he could enter the Mayor’s office without any interference. There, a middle-aged man was staring blankly into the air, intoxicated by poison.
“Mayor?”
“…Eh, ueh.”
The Mayor didn’t even notice Kang Jun-hyeok’s presence. Even when brought outside the city, nothing changed.
Awakening the poison-intoxicated Mayor.
That was the beginning of the Quest.
The problem was that they got stuck from the very beginning. Since it took two or three weeks just for the Mayor to regain consciousness, most Players couldn’t progress beyond that point. It was Floor 24’s first wall.
That’s why Kang Jun-hyeok raised his finger.
Whiiiing.
Golden light. Divine Power was manifested.
One of Divine Power’s effects.
Purification of all contamination and filth.
The light enveloped the Mayor, purifying the poison’s intoxication. The Mayor’s clouded eyes gradually returned to clarity.
“…Huh, what?”
“Have you come to your senses?”
“Who, who are you?”
“I’m a Traveler.”
Kang Jun-hyeok spoke calmly.
“I visited the city while traveling, but everyone seemed to have lost their minds. What happened?”
“…It’s because of the criminals.”
The mayor bit his lips and explained.
Criminals were living in the underground of the city.
They conducted drug experiments to overthrow the city.
Fortunately, they found out the information in advance and dispatched soldiers to stop them, but the cornered criminals opened the tank containing all the drugs.
The result was this current mess.
The drugs invaded the city and poisoned everyone.
“Oh. What on earth is this…”
“I will help you.”
“Th, thank you!”
The mayor quickly nodded his head. Thanks to the power of the Persuasion Skill, he didn’t have to go through useless conversation processes.
“First, we need to go underground and close the tank. But the path leading underground is quite complicated. I’d like to guide you if possible, but it’s filled with drugs, so I’m not sure if it’s possible…”
This was the second wall of Floor 24.
“You don’t need to worry about that part.”
Kang Jun-hyeok lightly raised his finger. Golden light arose and enveloped the mayor.
The mayor’s eyes widened.
“I’ve surrounded your body with divine power. There shouldn’t be any problems while heading underground.”
“Y, you’re a priest who serves a god. May I ask which one?”
“I’m sorry, but I can’t mention that.”
“Ah. I understand! Glory to the Great God!”
The mayor made a fuss and entered the city. As he headed underground, he kept glancing at Kang Jun-hyeok.
“Um… priest.”
“You can just call me Kang Jun-hyeok.”
“Are you alright, Mr. Kang Jun-hyeok?”
Unlike him, Kang Jun-hyeok wasn’t protected by divine power. He was being exposed to the drugs with his bare body.
Kang Jun-hyeok answered calmly.
“No problem.”
“I, I see.”
The mayor quickly nodded his head.
Following the mayor’s guidance, they went down through the underground.
When they entered through the hidden passage, countless people were collapsed there. And in the center, a massive tank was continuously spewing gray smoke.
[Poison Resistance proficiency has increased from F to E.]
[Poison Resistance proficiency has increased significantly.]
Just facing it made his proficiency rise like crazy. It was that toxic of an aura.
“Good, good heavens!”
The mayor made a fuss and approached the tank.
“We need to lock it, we need to lock it! But how do we do this…”
The smoke-emitting tank was connected to incredibly complex devices. There was no way to know what to touch and manipulate to close it.
Ignoring the panicking Mayor, Kang Jun-hyeok stared intently at the devices.
Complex devices.
They were on a completely different level compared to Earth’s fighter jets or tanks. Without reading the technical manuals nearby, there was no way to know the answer.
This was Floor 24’s third wall.
Therefore, Kang Jun-hyeok used [Observation] on each device one by one.
Intricately intertwined devices that required specialized knowledge.
Their processes, operating principles, reasons for functioning.
And even the answer.
All of it entered Kang Jun-hyeok’s mind.
Kang Jun-hyeok moved. Leaving the Mayor behind, he approached the device and began touching it. The Mayor was startled.
“Kang Jun-hyeok! You shouldn’t touch it carelessly without knowing! If you make a mistake, the tank might explode completely…”
Whirrrr…
With a mechanical sound, the device stopped.
Kang Jun-hyeok lightly dusted off his hands.
“It’s finished.”
“…What?”
The Mayor blinked his eyes.
