The Player Who Stands Above All

Chapter 81

"Hmm..."

Originally, Baek Hyun-woo was going to watch Lee Shin fight for a while and then jump in to help when he seemed to be struggling.

After that, he would show off a little.

However, watching Lee Shin fight, Baek Hyun-woo naturally gave up the thought of helping him.

Because it was the first time for him to see someone who enjoyed fighting as much as Lee Shin.

'What does that guy like the most? He likes to fight strong guys with his life on the line. In the future, you'll get tired of being with that guy.'

'I like fighting too.'

'So that guy likes fighting more than you do. Well, thanks to him choosing only dangerous areas, it was a little easier for us.'

"Alice-noona was right."

Baek Hyun-woo twirled his curly hair with his finger and watched Lee Shin fight.

Watching him fight, he could naturally understand.

The reason why Alice, despite not liking him, eventually decided to accept him.

***

Kkirigigigigi-

The Jewel Spider, seeing Lee Shin who was not scared by its threat, let out a small growl as if it didn't like it.

The enraged Jewel Spider mumbled its mouth, created a new bullet, and rushed at him.

At the same time, it indiscriminately swung the wire spiderwebs connected to its spinneret and pressured him.

The wires that the Jewel Spider controlled were each a long whip and at the same time a sharp sword.

A long whip that could cover about 10 meters around, and at the same time, a high-performance sword that could easily cut a rock larger than a person.

Pajijik-

Lee Shin unfolded the Thunder Wood Line Step and dug into the space that the Jewel Spider was dominating without hesitation.

In any case, he had no choice but to charge.

He didn't know if he had anything left to throw in his inventory, but right now, all he had in his inventory was a carrier.

And it wasn't like he would die just by getting close to the Jewel Spider.

-Flame Lightning Divine Spear

-Flames

-50 Leaves

Lee Shin wrapped his spear with the [Flames] he had received from Irhegue and swung it strongly.

Then, a red trajectory was created in the air and split into numerous petals of flame.

The beautifully scattering flame leaves rotated around him and protected him.

It was the opposite of usual.

Originally, he had used the [Leaves] to wrap around the enemy and confuse them, not in a defensive way.

It was a natural choice.

Even if he embodied his ki and put it in the [Flames], the spear ki he created would soon disappear and its power would be weak.

But the situation is always fluid, and now was the moment when such a peculiar shield was needed.

Ting- Ting- Ting- Ting- Ting-

The wires that were being swung from all sides of him clashed with the flames he had created and were instantly cut.

Kkirigi-?

The Jewel Spider was flustered by the [Flames] that had risen on his spear.

Because the Lee Shin that the Jewel Spider had seen so far had only handled [Lightning].

But unfortunately for it, he had a hidden card called [Flames].

"Besides..."

Pajijik-

"While playing with your children and their spiderwebs, I've become very proficient at switching between [Flames] and [Lightning]."

Kkyuuuu-!

"Yeah, I'm always grateful for your help."

Kyuu-

Lee Shin smiled lightly at Irhegue, who was expressing his pleasure by tapping the ground with his tail.

The Jewel Spider, interpreting his smile as a sneer at itself, opened its mouth that had been mumbling fiercely and spat out numerous thread bullets at him like a machine gun.

Lee Shin, seeing the numerous spiderwebs pouring towards him, erased the [Flames] that had been there until a moment ago and swung his spear, wrapping it in [Lightning].

Just as water overcomes fire and wood makes fire bigger, there is a thing called compatibility in a fight.

And in the compatibility between Lee Shin and the Jewel Spider, he had the overwhelming advantage.

Kkirikigigigik---!!!!

The Jewel Spider, seeing him who had become a single streak of lightning and was piercing through the hail of spiderweb bullets, raised its upper body.

Then, the four legs shining blue became spears and attacked him at a tremendous speed.

The Jewel Spider pulled out a new spiderweb from its spinneret and swung it at him.

The ground was pierced by its legs, and rocks were cut by its spiderwebs.

With this, the Jewel Spider was thinking of cutting off his annoying legs.

And it vowed to eat the legs that had fallen off in front of him, who was crawling on the floor, bleeding.

"Hmm..."

But he had no intention of participating in her thoughts at all.

Hwareureuk-

Lee Shin, looking at the four legs that were stabbing like spears and the thread that was being swung with a bluish light, unfolded the Flame Leaf Retreat Step.

His body broke into numerous flames and, avoiding the Jewel Spider's legs, easily escaped from its sight.

The Flame Leaf Retreat Step was a technique that deceived the opponent's senses and escaped from those senses.

For the Jewel Spider, which had lost several detection organs to his lightning and was left with only the four eyes on its right side.

"Hello?"

It couldn't even notice where he was until he came right in front of it and greeted it.

At that fact, the Jewel Spider let out its anger and poured more attacks on him.

Kkirilligigigik---!!!

A high-pitched sound that seemed to burst the ears exploded right in front of him, and a fang the size of an adult man's forearm flashed, aiming for his head.

"Too obvious."

Lee Shin, twisting his body in the air, easily dodged the fang that was stabbing at him.

The Jewel Spider, seeing him coming down to the ground again, burned its four remaining eyes as if it would not miss him again and swung its spiderwebs.

But none of them reached him.

Because the moment the attack was about to reach, he had stepped on the Flame Leaf Retreat Step and had escaped from the Jewel Spider's senses, repeating.

Kkang-

Kkirikrikigigik---!!!

The moment it tried to find the disappeared Lee Shin again, the Jewel Spider, at the sensation of the steel pipe stuck in its belly stirring its internal organs, screamed loudly and swept its belly with its wire.

Ahahaha-

Then, as if to mock the Jewel Spider who had guessed the right answer, he appeared in front of it, laughing brightly.

"Wow, attacking when it was in the cocoon was a godsend, wasn't it? To be honest, you were so sturdy that there wasn't a suitable part to attack."

The Jewel Spider could not understand his words exactly.

But it could well understand that he was laughing at her.

That fact drove her mad.

Chyururururuk-

And at the same time, it made her grow.

Just as he had learned her attack patterns, she also learned his attack patterns.

Her intelligence was not so low as to be incapable of such thought.

The most annoying thing for her was that he was neutralizing her spiderwebs using [Lightning] and [Flames]. If so, the method was simple.

Shururururuk-

She just had to swing a variety of spiderwebs so fast that he couldn't possibly keep up.

She continued to mumble her mouth and once again pulled out spiderwebs from her spinneret.

Ten.

50.

100.

The spiderwebs, boasting an enormous number, swayed respectively and threatened him.

Although the number of spiderwebs caught his eye, what captivated his eye was its composition.

Unlike before, when only one type was used, this time, wire and real spiderwebs were mixed.

Hunghunghung-

The Jewel Spider swung its spiderwebs at him with all its might.

The air was not just cut by the spiderwebs she swung, but was torn to shreds.

It did not give him any space to dodge.

It did not give him any time to react.

And if he tried to deal with it with [Flames], the sticky spiderwebs would also melt, and he would end up tripping himself up.

The Jewel Spider smiled.

If he was trying to attack her using two things, she would also attack the human using those two things.

She was sure of her victory.

Grin-

But Lee Shin was also smiling.

'It's a little fast, but... I can do it, right?'

Kkyuu-!

Lee Shin, strengthening his connection with Irhegue, created a single flow in his dantian.

At the same time, he could feel another flow that Irhegue was creating from the opposite side.

The [Flames] that he created, the [Lightning] that Irhegue created.

Grin-

Feeling the flow of those two, he raised his spear and at the same time moved his feet.

If the opponent was trying to attack him by creating a complicated pattern, the answer was simple.

He just had to show a power that could surpass that again.

"Hoo..."

In a time that was split and split and split, a unit of time that the word 'fleeting' did not even suit, he swung his spear and moved his internal energy.

Sticky spiderwebs and sharp spiderwebs were swung, aiming for his head and torso.

At the same time as he ducked his head, he wrapped his spear in [Flames].

A spiderweb was swung right in front of his legs.

Hwareureuk-

That leg turned into a flame and appeared in a completely new place.

Various spiderwebs came from above his head, from the left, from the right, and from the front.

Erasing the [Flames] that were covering the spear, he filled that place with [Lightning].

A sticky spiderweb was shot from behind it.

Erasing the [Lightning] that was flashing on the spear, he filled that place with [Flames].

He dealt with the sticky spiderwebs using [Lightning], and he dealt with the sharp spiderwebs using [Flames].

He created that in a fleeting moment of less than a second.

It was a kind of gamble that even he was doing for the first time... but the result was a great success.

Before the [Flames] around him had even disappeared, [Lightning] appeared and was swung.

Before the swung [Lightning] had even scattered, [Flames] rose at the tip of his spear.

He did not dodge.

He cut the spiderwebs head-on and approached the place where the Jewel Spider was.

Kkyareugigik--

The Jewel Spider, on the contrary, dodged him and stepped back, spitting out the spiderwebs in its mouth or spraying the poison it had in its mouth.

Pajijik-

But no matter what it did, it could not stop his steps.

He neatly cleared all the spiderwebs one by one, as if taking out a block from a Jenga tower.

Kkaang-

Kkirikrikigigik---!!!

And then, he once again dug under the Jewel Spider.

He hit the spear stuck in the Jewel Spider's belly in a different direction from before, giving it a shock, and at that, the Jewel Spider screamed louder than before.

Hearing that sound, he smiled.

'How long will this one last?'

He was no longer curious about the outcome of the fight.

He was not stupid enough to worry about a problem whose answer he already knew.
