The Tutorial Is Too Hard Chapter 216:
Translator: JiuJiuBa
Proofreader: GodlyCash
The challengers on the 1st floor felt death hidden within the darkness as they looked ahead from the stage entrance .
I still remember the moment when I first returned to the waiting room after an arrow shot me, then immediately challenging the trap a second time .
I really felt like I was going to die .
Overcoming that fear lead me to become who I am now .
The God of Adventure first became interested in me during that time .
Perhaps the fear they faced is greater than mine .
The amount of fear accumulated is correlated to the amount of time the challengers lamented and stayed on the 1st floor .
After a month, they will be locked in the waiting room again .
On a positive note, they get to see each other’s faces, but only staring at each other for 3 days while nibbling on dried meat would make them question their survival .
Living only on dried meat and water each day would negatively impact their morale .
Although the waiting room’s restorative abilities can heal the body, bland taste in such a situation can have a great impact on their lives .
I had to live on dried meat and water until Idy cooked for me on the 12th floor creating a new experience .
Ultimately, there’s no hope for a better situation .
The Order of Vigilance would only be able to send support if they go up to the 2nd floor .
Because the auction window is available only after the 1st floor is cleared .
There’s no escape from the mire of despair .
Suicide is the only hope for those trapped there .
Their deaths would be like the “GAME OVER” screen from video games, returning to the main interface after losing .
They have the delusion that death will free them from **** .
Or they believe that death is a better alternative than being trapped in **** .
It’s such a pity .
Their whole situation is pitiful .
However, Lee Hyung Jin, who managed them and had a close relationship to them, was different .
Since the beginning of the suicides, Lee Hyung Jin has tried his best to stop them, but now he is also suffering from lethargy and depression .
Although he did not tell me directly, I clearly understood his self-disgust in our conversations .
Lee Hyung Jin is isolated in Hell Difficulty like those planning to commit suicide .
But unlike the challengers on the 1st floor, he is trying to move forward like me even if it’s only bit by bit .
Fortunately, Lee Hyung Jin is on the 13th floor .
He said that since his abilities encountered a bottleneck and he planned to give up clearing for some time .
He wants to challenge the 13th floor repeatedly until he can achieve meaningful growth .
The monks on the 13th floor are friendly and generously offer valuable advice to the challenger .
I hope that the monks can offer some meaningful guidance to Lee Hyung Jin .
Because I don’t think I can do that .
As soon as I appeared, I saw holy sword soaring like a fly .
Although it looks frivolous, a large number of infectors are slaughtered each time he flies over and uses magic .
[How’s it going?]
After spotting me, Ahbooboo flew over and asked .
“It’s a mess . Get some rest . I’ll take over . ”
[Ok . Perfect timing because my magic was running out . ]
I turn my head to the retreating figure of Ahbooboo .
There’s another thing Ahbooboo needs to do .
“Ahbooboo, sorry, you need to set up a barrier . ”
[Barrier? What are you doing?]
“An instant massacre . ”
After a moment of silence, Ahbooboo grumbles .
[Do you need to do that? I said my magic is low . ]
“Yeah, no . ”
After hearing me, Ahbooboo muttered something I didn’t understand, perhaps some ancient swear words, and then responds with a sigh .
[Please go as far as you can before you release it . ]
Wait, why does he sound like he’s letting me go to take a **** in the woods?
Now that I think about it, he isn’t wrong, so I go anyways .
After getting rid of Ahbooboo, who has been muttering, I walk towards the other side of the bridge .
It wasn’t long before I was face to face with the infectors that were rushing towards the building .
Each Infector had different appearances .
Some looked like wildlife, some looked like monsters, and others looked like people .
They are literally just monsters as a result of mutations after being infected .
They are no different from zombies in movies .
I raise my hands to them and draw a line from left to right in the air .
“Mind slash . ”
Infectors are cut in half by the blade of the invisible aura .
I felt a strange sense of catharsis after the row of infectors split in half and rain blood .
[What was the point of drawing a line in the air?]
Seregia asks .
“It’s cool . ”
When people see it, they’ll think the infectors were bisected by my hand gestures .
If I must explain it, then that’s why .
The rest of the infectors will still rush towards me without hesitation regardless of their allies’ death .
Their foolish judgment is ironically their advantage .
Faced with pawns who believe that they can win by blindly rushing forward with numbers, large-scale magic is the solution .
“Fire wall . ”
Flames flares up from the ground .
The rushing infectors are burnt beyond recognition .
The infectors are temporarily halted so I take this opportunity to pull out the soul sword and shoot it forward .
After flying hundreds of meters, Seregia hit the ground and asks me .
[Start?]
“Yes, release it . ”
As soon as I said that, the soul sealed in the soul sword was released into the world .
These were souls gathered through my soul collecting skill .
Although I can’t control them, Seregia can since she is assimilated with soul sword .
The souls running out of soul sword attached themselves to the infectors .
I don’t know the infectors’ numbers, but I’m sure it won’t exceed the number of souls sealed in soul sword .
I’m certain .
Because the number of infectors gathered here does not exceed one billion .
After confirming that the souls are firmly attached to the infectors, I activate my skill .
[Soul Steal]
This is the power skill that the God of Death gave me .
A skill I often used after I obtained it on the 6th floor .
It weakens the enemy and restores my strength upon their demise .
It can also cause fatal damage to the enemies’ mental form or soul .
The souls attached to the infectors are no exception .
The souls will writhe in pain and in turn impact the infectors .
Due to the torturous pain, the souls are forced to cling to themselves .
In brief, it’s like attaching the scotch tape to the soul and tearing it off .
I don’t know what the principles are .
I learned this technique through the clues from the God of Death and Kiri Kiri’s advice during training, so I knew that it was feasible . But that’s all I knew .
It will take a while to fully understand the technique and make good use of it .
All of these infectors fell to the ground and began to twist and convulse . Only then did the view became wider .
I kicked a couple of infectors that were moaning and struggling .
They did not respond to external shocks .
To avoid troubling Ahbooboo, who is preparing the barrier .
I retrieved the soul sword and spread Talaria’s Wings to fly into the sky .
I start my flight in order to find a suitable place to slaughter them all at once .
