All Master Who Regressed to Bronze Episode 115
Although Thunder Hammer had achieved the remarkable feat of taking 5 consecutive hits, he did not fall.
Even with his main weapon, the warhammer, shattered and his armor damaged, he charged at Shin Hyeok with his backup weapon.
Thunder Hammer was certainly a powerful Player.
Throughout all of Earth, there were no more than ten Players stronger than him.
In other words, Thunder Hammer was a powerhouse who would be hard to find an equal among dimensions excluding the upper and lower dimensions.
A powerhouse so strong that even after taking 5 consecutive hits and having his main weapon destroyed, forcing him to fight with a backup weapon, his strength could not be diminished.
That was Thunder Hammer.
However—
“Return. Flash Strike. Wind Strike. Flash Wind Extreme Strike.”
“Kruuuaaahhh!!!”
Kwaaaaaaaah!!!
Shin Hyeok was even more so, never less.
Throughout all of Earth, there were less than a handful of Players stronger than Shin Hyeok, and he was a complete Player who could proudly enter the ranks of the strongest in other native dimensions excluding Earth.
Having cleared all sorts of Achievements, received solid support from legendary craftsmen and alchemists, and possessing experience from before his regression, Shin Hyeok was a perfect superior version of Thunder Hammer.
After retrieving his Arcane Spear with the skill Return.
Shin Hyeok immediately unleashed Flash Strike, Wind Strike, and their combination Flash Wind Extreme Strike, relentlessly pressing Thunder Hammer, and riding that momentum, he even succeeded in retrieving his holy sword that had flown away while performing Heaven Destruction Extreme Lightning Rain Slash.
From that point on, Thunder Hammer began to be pushed back in earnest.
His injured body could be automatically healed with potions built into his armor, but broken weapons would not return.
His backup weapon was also a decent unique-grade weapon, but it was significantly inferior compared to his main weapon.
Since even his main weapon was inferior to Shin Hyeok’s armaments, a weapon even worse than that needed no explanation.
Kwaaaaang!
“Grrrr…”
Every time weapon clashed against weapon, tremendous shock traveled through the weapon and shook Thunder Hammer’s insides.
As powerful shocks that felt like his organs were being pulverized struck consecutively, even Thunder Hammer, no matter how strong a warrior he was, had no way to endure it.
“Uweeek…”
Finally, Thunder Hammer, who had vomited black dead blood and turned pale, glared at Shin Hyeok with a determined expression.
“Human warrior… I understand your strength well. Though it’s strength built from equipment that doesn’t match your station, in the ruthless world of competition, even that would be your ability.”
“Do you perhaps have no conscience?”
“…Shut up!”
Of course, he didn’t lower his pride to the end, but noticing that Thunder Hammer was plotting something, Shin Hyeok immediately prepared the greatest and strongest attack he could currently perform.
“Transcendence – Comprehensive Weapon Arts[A].”
It began with using the Plus Ultra Ring’s skill Transcendence to elevate Comprehensive Weapon Arts[A] to S-rank.
As Comprehensive Weapon Arts rose to S-rank, Shin Hyeok refined the surging sensations and absorbed them as his own, brilliant sword aura swirled above his holy sword, and pitch-black spear aura shone sharply above his Arcane Spear.
Sword qi could turn an ordinary iron sword into a treasured sword, and a swordsman was at the level of handling threads drawn out with such sword qi.
Finally, sword aura was the result of twisting and combining the threads drawn out with sword qi into one.
It was also a ferocious weapon of destruction that could not be blocked for even 1 second by anything unless it was something of equal rank.
At the sight of not one but two such powerful auras blooming, Thunder Hammer looked at them with a distant expression.
Crack!
“…It will not go as you wish.”
But Thunder Hammer did not back down.
Sword aura blooming above a Legendary+ weapon.
This was an attack that even Challenger Players from native dimensions should fear.
Nevertheless, there was only one reason Thunder Hammer did not retreat.
“Great Clan Constellations of the Dwarves. Please grant me the power to face this lowly being who oppresses your child. If you do so, I will offer the flesh of this lacking child to you!”
“…Tsk!”
He trusted his backing.
And since Shin Hyeok also knew his backing, he clicked his tongue and frowned.
Tribal Constellations.
Beings inferior to lower Constellations, so much so that comparing them to the Master of Mjolnir, a higher Constellation, would be sacrilege itself, but still beings positioned immeasurably higher than individual Players.
‘This is different from Tarkan’s case. To them, Tarkan was just a dog raised by their descendants, but Thunder Hammer is a descendant. Then the method they’ll choose is predetermined.’
This was different from the Tribal Constellations of the Emerald Orcs he had faced when he made Tarkan his subordinate and devoured the Colosseum.
They had only sent their gazes trying to crush Shin Hyeok to death, but the Tribal Constellations of the Dwarves would try to kill Shin Hyeok in a different way.
That method was something he couldn’t help but know even if he wanted not to, since Thunder Hammer had already spoken it with his own mouth.
[Master of the Red Anvil sends down power.]
[Blacksmith of the Lava Forge lends power.]
[Master of the Steel Army lends power.]
[Leader of Thunder and Cannon lends power.]
[Ruler of Molten Metal lends power.]
.
.
.
Kwaaaaaaaah!!!
A massive collection of power descended from the Colosseum’s ceiling and flowed directly into Thunder Hammer.
Looking at them individually, they couldn’t be called overwhelming, nor were they at a level to overturn the already tilted game, but the sheer number of converging powers was significant.
With dozens of powers converging, it was impressive enough that even Shin Hyeok had to heighten his tension.
And the Viewers watching this also couldn’t hide their anxiety.
-Damn it, referee! Referee!!! Those bastards are cheating!!!
-No, this isn’t right. Calling your grandfather, great-grandfather, and great-great-grandfather is cheating!!!
-Damn, don’t we have any Constellations to help us?
-As if we would…
-This is heartbreaking. So heartbreaking.
For the Viewers, the current situation was no different from Thunder Hammer summoning his deceased ancestors to become the Ghost Player King.
Moreover, they weren’t just giving advice but sending down massive power, so their anxiety reached its peak.
[Master of the Turtle Ship looks at you with pity.]
At least the Master of the Turtle Ship, a Tribal Constellation related to Shin Hyeok, looked at this situation with pity, but couldn’t go against the tide.
Even if help were given, the power of one Tribal Constellation couldn’t overturn a situation created by dozens of Tribal Constellations.
Thus, Thunder Hammer, having received the power of dozens of Tribal Constellations in his body, burst into mad laughter.
“Hahahaha! Yes! This is it! This power befitting the chosen me! Do you think you can defeat me now that I’ve become a Divine Avatar!”
“…”
Divine Avatar.
A being born from receiving the power of those no different from gods.
Thunder Hammer, at this very moment.
Was an existence representing the power and will of the Tribal Constellations.
His power, which had been at King-rank or above but below Emperor-rank, explosively increased, and there was only one term to describe him who had become powerful enough to crush even Imperial-rank Players.
“Ah, is this the vision of a Challenger? A vision truly befitting me!”
Challenger.
Though it was only at the level of a native dimension Challenger, that alone was sufficient qualification to stand at the starting line for transcendence.
Of course, it was unreasonable to consider him a real Challenger.
Pseudo Challenger.
Or he should be called a False Challenger.
If the current Thunder Hammer met a real Challenger Player who ruled or represented a native dimension, he would probably be beaten like dust on a rainy day.
But even such a being, when meeting a lower-ranked existence, would fully bloom their talent as a disaster.
“Hahahaha! Yes! The position of lowly human species like you is exactly there! Bow your head and worship! Prostrating before the great Thunder Hammer who follows the will of the gods is never a shameful thing!”
Such was Thunder Hammer.
Making a name for himself as a talented Dwarf Player in his dimension and accumulating karma, then being promoted to a higher species based on that karma.
For Thunder Hammer, who had only walked on smooth roads since then, Shin Hyeok’s existence was more than enough to completely shatter the pride and self-esteem he had built up.
Therefore, when he felt he had risen above Shin Hyeok, even if only through the power of Tribal Constellations, he thought this was the right world and a world running properly.
Of course—
“First, Tribal Constellations are too low in rank to be called gods. Second, I’d rather bite my tongue and die than bow my head to you. And I understand you’re excited, but don’t act pretentious with power that isn’t even your own. It’s too unsightly, isn’t it?”
“…Urgh, how dare this lowly bastard!”
Shin Hyeok wasn’t intimidated in the slightest.
Instead, he harshly criticized and berated Thunder Hammer.
Certainly, the current Thunder Hammer was powerful.
One level above Shin Hyeok.
Perhaps he could be considered to have a weight class about two levels higher.
But combat wasn’t something done with weight class alone.
“Hah, I really didn’t want to use this… Unification – Spiritual Power.”
“…!!!”
Puhwaaaaaaak!
Above all, it was even more so because Shin Hyeok possessed the power to transcend his given weight class.
Trait: Unification converted all the various and enormous energies he possessed into spiritual power.
The massive spiritual power created like an ocean began to tear through Shin Hyeok’s entire body like mad.
“Not enough.”
But Shin Hyeok wasn’t satisfied with even that.
In a situation where the torrential spiritual power was on the verge of tearing his entire body’s mana circuits to shreds, Shin Hyeok didn’t hesitate to shift up one more gear.
“Overload – Spirit.”
The final 10th chapter of Choi Shin-hyeok Style.
He deployed Overload with spiritual power.
The spiritual power, already difficult to control due to its elevated level, began to rampage completely under Overload’s influence.
A torrent of power that a mere Player couldn’t dare control.
Within it, Shin Hyeok instead let go of control.
Kwagagagagagagaga!!!
Like a valley during monsoon season, spiritual power that smashed through everything in its way burst out through Shin Hyeok’s mana circuits without restraint, dyeing the surroundings violet.
When it reached its peak.
“Simple Domain Deployment.”
“…!!!”
Thunder Hammer didn’t even dare attempt to use it.
He deployed an ability that fake Challengers couldn’t even touch.
Simple Domain.
Shin Hyeok’s original creation, made by cutting down and cutting down a domain until it could barely be deployed at his current level.
“Jalyeongilwol.”
The Purple Moon rose above Shin Hyeok’s head.
The violet moon looked down at Thunder Hammer from above Shin Hyeok’s head, and under that absolute gaze, Thunder Hammer unconsciously bowed his head for a moment.
Crack!
“How dare you look down on me!!!”
Thunder Hammer gritted his teeth and jerked his head up.
With a roar incomparably powerful, filled with the karma and power of the Tribal Constellations, he barely shook off the pressure from the Purple Moon, but Thunder Hammer felt instinctive fear.
‘Why, why do I feel divine power from that bastard…!’
Because he had become an avatar.
Because he harbored the power of Constellations, Thunder Hammer could vividly feel the spiritual power Shin Hyeok wielded.
But even so, before that power.
Furthermore, since he couldn’t kneel and bow his head before Shin Hyeok, Thunder Hammer forcibly suppressed his instinctive awe and shot forward like a cannonball.
Tukwaaaang!
Befitting Thunder Hammer who had gained power worthy of being called a fake Challenger through the Constellations’ power, his strength and speed were incomparable to before.
Kwaddeuddeuk!
Thunder Hammer’s bulging eyes glared at Shin Hyeok as he shot forward, gripping the handle of his backup war axe with all his might.
‘I’ll kill you in one strike.’
The weapon’s quality was disappointing, but considering the powerful force flowing through his body, it wouldn’t be difficult, so the moment Thunder Hammer swung his war axe with all his strength.
“Rise.”
‘Hmph, do you think you can hold my feet with mere Undead? How ridiculous. I’ll cut you down along with the Undead!’
Shin Hyeok used necromancy.
But Thunder Hammer didn’t fear or guard against it, instead snorting in derision.
He had already confirmed the level of Undead Shin Hyeok commanded through his subordinate Dwarves before facing Shin Hyeok.
At most, Durahan.
He was confident he could smash that level along with Shin Hyeok entirely, and indeed had that much power.
However, if there was one thing he hadn’t considered-
“Muscal.”
-I will cut down my lord’s enemy.
“De, Death Knight?!”
Sgeogeogeogeogeogeogeok!!!
It was that Shin Hyeok’s necromancy was S-rank.
In other words, even if it couldn’t match Shin Hyeok or Thunder Hammer, a Death Knight of sufficiently threatening level had blocked Thunder Hammer’s path.
Having made no proper preparations, Thunder Hammer was deeply cut by Muscal’s appearance and looked back and forth between Shin Hyeok and Muscal with a bewildered expression.
“Let’s go.”
-Yes.
Shin Hyeok and Muscal each wrapped their respective weapons with their own powerful energy and charged toward Thunder Hammer.
As if blessing those two, the violet moon.
The Purple Moon scattered gentle violet light around the area.
