The Messiah Guild’s one year plan began with Lee Se-jun’s dungeon attack .
Lee Se-jun would enter a higher floored dungeon that no one had ever attacked before in time for the new year, and only after he came out would the big picture be present of what he would do in the coming year .
It was the same in 2024, when Lee Se-jun organised a 7 Floor dungeon attack .
After completing the 7 Floor dungeon attack, Lee Se-jun gathered all the top officials of the Messiah Guild and said .
“From now on, we will put our priority on securing legendary items . ”
In the future, legendary items would play a much bigger role than ever .
Since then, the Messiah Guild used any and all means to obtain legendary items .
It was around that time that the reputation of the Hunting Dog, Kim Woo-jin began to increase .
In that way, Kim Woo-jin obtained a wide variety of weapons .
From the legendary items that Park Yong-wan sold to Japan, to the items of the Sword Saint and Lightning King, to even the Dragonslayers best weapon .
But he didn’t have everything .
In particular, he didn’t have many items that stemmed from Northern European mythology .
Gungnir, Megingjord(1), Brísingamen(2)… items that you’d know the value of simply by hearing their names .
He tried to secure such items, but couldn’t .
The Messiah Guild had a lot of regrets about that fact .
Of course, when Kim Woo-jin was betrayed by Lee Se-jun, he realised that disappointment wasn’t the feeling of being unable to clear the dungeon .
Instead, he regretted the fact that there was still an unknown threat that was basically controlling the world .
In any case, Kim Woo-jin didn’t have much of a relationship with legendary items from Norse mythology .
[Mjolnir]
– Rating: Legendary

– Immune to all lightning attacks
‘I didn’t think I’d obtain this like this . ’
Now, Mjolnir, the weapon which was said to be the strongest in Norse mythology, had landed in Kim Woo-jin’s hands .
‘How lucky . ’
He could only base the result on luck .
‘It’s the worst thing for the Lightning King . ’
And it was something that could be called the worst possibility for the Lightning King .
This was literal .
[Mjolnir’s power protects you from lightning . ]
One of the effects of equipping Mjolnir was a complete immunity to lightning attacks .
It was like a poison that targeted the Lightning King perfectly .
And that wasn’t all .
[Mjolnir is filled with the power of thunder . ]
[The power of the Thunder God is unlocked . ]
The power of the Thunder God .
Originally, this was a skill that would be charged by the lightning that was discharged when Mjolnir attacked an enemy .
However, now, thanks to the Lightning King’s attacks, there was no need to do that .
[The duration is 131 seconds . ]
[All stats increased by 30% . ]
[Movement speed increased by 30% . ]
[Thunderstorm attack is available . ]
When the power of the Thunder God activated, Kim Woo-jin lightly struck the air with Mjolnir .
Boom!
Then, with the sound of thunder, the space hit by Mjolnir shook fiercely .
‘So that’s how it feels . ’
Thunderclap!
It was the moment when a terrifying skill which ignored the target’s defense to cause immense damage had been activated .
At that moment, Kim Woo-jin moved .
Paht!
Wearing the Hermes Boots, Kim Woo-jin’s movements across the ground were like lightning .
In an instant, he reached the Lightning King who was in the Lightning God state .
And even before he reached, he’d already begun to swing Mjolnir through the air .
What happened was a clear cut swing .
Boom!
However, following the loud sound of thunder, the Lightning King’s began to shiver like candles in the wind .
The huge body of the Lightning God’s advent also began to flutter, and the Lightning King’s terrifying attacks naturally stopped .
But Kim Woo-jin didn’t stop .
Kim Woo-jin, who stepped on the air and jumped, continued to hit the air again and again .
Boom!
The sound of thunder rang out with each swing, and the Lightning King’s shook continuously .
[The Lightning God is angry . ]
Of course, the physical damage was not high .
No, in the first place, the concept of damage did not exist for Lightning God Indra .
It would be strange if it was possible to deal physical damage to a corporeal entity .
Kim Woo-jin was also aware of that .
After all, he was the one who had killed the Lightning King before .
Therefore it was natural that his purpose wasn’t to cause damage at all .
‘The time should’ve reduced .
Instead, he aimed at reducing the time for the Lightning God’s Advent .
‘Now, there shouldn’t be much time left . ’
That also meant that the Lightning King didn’t have much time left either .

‘It’s time to finish this . ’
…
‘It’s over . ’
‘This is hell . ’
Overwhelming fear!
There was no time to feel any other kind of emotion .
“Ah . ”
Kieeh…
And there was no distinction between player and Goblin .
All living creatures had been crushed by fear .
Rattle!
In other words, this didn’t have much of an effect on the army of undead led by the lich .
Kyaha!
Hyaha!
For those who were literally dead, who wanted to feel the fear of death but would never be able to do so, the sight before them was undoubtedly a feast .
A great banquet table filled with countless side dishes that wouldn’t be able to do anything even if they wanted to stab them with a spear, cut them with a sword, or hit them with a hammer .
Nevertheless, there was only one reason why they stopped their offensive in such a situation .
The master’s absolute command!
Boom!
Because of that command, the army of undead held their position, even in the presence of the scattered lightning .
It was around that time .
When the sound of thunder sounded once again
Kyaha!
At the cry of a Skeleton Knight, the skeleton army began to move once again .
Their movement was similar to a starving beast .
Hyaha!
It was much more aggressive and reckless than usual .
On the other hand, the Goblins, who were weighed down by fear, were much weaker and more desperate than usual .
A massacre began .
[The Blood Golem’s poison spreads in all directions . ]
And this time, a new killer, who had not taken part in the battle earlier, also shared in the slaughter .
The massacre began in this way .
Like dust on the ground being swept away by a hand, the Goblin horde disappeared as the skeleton army moved forward .
[There are 280,000 Goblins remaining . ]
[There are 270,000 Goblins remaining . ]
10,000 monsters, a number that was hard to picture, disappeared in the blink of an eye .
Nevertheless, the people there were too distracted to notice this fact .
[There are 260,000 Goblins remaining . ]
When this massacre began taking place, there was only one person who came to their senses to witness it .
“This…”
It was none other than Park Yong-wan .

[The abnormal status effect caused by Divine Judgement has been canceled . ]
Previously, he’d lost his sense after being caught up in the abnormal effects caused by Gungnir, and only then did he begin to figure out what was going on .
He saw Isaac Ivanov’s undead army massacring the Goblins, and he saw Isaac Ivanov fighting against the giant made of lightning that was the Lightning King .
And he saw the surroundings that had been devastated .
“Fuck . ”
And faced with that sight, Park Yong-wan only had one thought .
‘He dared . ’
At that moment, if he still didn’t realise what was going on, then he didn’t deserve to be alive .
‘He dared to eat me . ’
Park Yong-wan realised that he had become a dog with a leash held by none other than Isaac Ivanov .
‘…I’ll wear the collar for now . ’
Of course, Park Yong-wan didn’t intend to show his fangs and remove the collar right away .
That was the kind of man he was .
If the Lightning King was a tyrant then Park Yong-wan was a villain .
A man who could bow his head when necessary, and even follow obediently, but who would also have a knife hidden in his bosom .
Therefore, Park Yong-wan knew what he had to do in order to gain the most benefit .
‘For now, I’ll stick to Isaac Ivanov’s now . ’
The current situation showed that the Lightning King would die that day, and Isaac Ivanov would get everything .
Even Park Yong-wan could only decide to follow Isaac Ivanov .
‘And it would be better if he had a good impression . ’
In that case, it would be better to be a valiant hound than a desperate, beaten old dog .
“Isaac Ivanov is blocking the Lightning King!”
Therefore, Park Yong-wan, who had finished his calculations, aroused all the players from their fear .
“In the meantime, we should help his skeletons sweep away the rest of the Goblins!”
Along with those words, Park Yong-wan lifted Durandal in his hands .
[Durandal represents courage . ]
[Durandal’s spirit blesses those who follow you . ]
Durandal!
The courage of the Great Knight Roland drove out the fear the players felt and filled them with bravery instead .
“Ohhh!”
“Let’s go!”
Only then did the players, who had regained their senses, gather around Park Yong-wan .
There was no longer a distinction between Thunderbird and the Phoenix Guild .
“Let’s kill the Goblins!”
“Let’s end this!”
Everyone began to fight as one, and the Goblins were unable to put up any resistance on this battlefield .
It was the moment when the true massacre had begun .
‘Amazing . ’
Seeing this scene, Lee Jin-ah couldn’t help but click his tongue .
It wasn’t because of the madness or misery of the massacre .

‘Kim Woo-jin really is a ghost . To predict even this . ’
Even this had been included in Kim Woo-jin’s script .
Lee Jin-ah, who was made speechless by this fact, couldn’t help but look at the spear in his hand before turning to look at Kim Woo-jin and the Lightning King’s battle .
The outcome of their battle was clear .
Amidst Kim Woo-jin’s continuous attacks, it was clear that the body of the Lightning King’s Lightning God state was devastated to the point of collapsing .
Seeing this, Lee Jin-ah could only sneakily place the spear into his inventory .
‘He only has himself to blame for losing it . ’
But Lee Jin-ah didn’t know that even he was a part of Kim Woo-jin’s script .
That’s how the battle on the fourth floor came to an end .
…
When it struck, a lightning bolt was powerful, but afterwards, it was nothing .
It was the same for the Lightning King .
The Lightning God’s Advent was insanely powerful, but when it was finished, the user would be severely weakened .
Flash!
And following a flash of light, the lightning giant vanished, and all that was left was the pitiful figure of the Lightning King .
“Huk, huk . ”
The Lightning King’s condition was very serious .
If he was left as is, it would be difficult for him to survive .
The same was true for his mental state .
The Lightning King, who had been taken over by the descent of Indra, was forcibly being reminded of the actions he had committed .
It was an injection of information after his performance, and it was incredibly painful .
“Kuk…”
Nevertheless, the Lightning King recognized, understood, and grasped the leash of his reason .
This required amazing mental power .
‘I have to find a way to survive . Negotiation…’
Even at that moment, while he was filled with anger at Isaac Ivanov, who had driven him to such a state, he devised a way for himself to survive .
‘I still have a card . The subordinates I have stationed outside…’
What came to his mind at that moment were the troops that he had stationed outside the dungeon gate .
He didn’t actually prepare anything .
‘I have to use it to negotiate . ’
However, Isaac Ivanov wouldn’t know that, so he had some room to negotiate .
‘He will have to keep it in mind . ’
Furthermore, Isaac Ivanov was certain to think that there would be a problem if he killed the Lightning King then exited the dungeon .
In any case, one thing was certain .
Dialogue was necessary for negotiation .
Therefore, the Lightning King opened his mouth the moment Isaac Ivanov approached him .
“Is…”
Boom!
At that moment, a bolt of lightning struck the Lightning King .
It was also the moment that the Lightning King’s reputation fell .
And it was also the moment that a new lightning King had been born .
