The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player - RMLP Chapter 87: Moonlight Slaughter (Part 2)

Since they were in a party, similar messages would have appeared for the teammates. The experience points and gold might not seem substantial, but that was due to their large group.

‘But the items are mine.’

Ryu Min chuckled as he glanced at his item list. Among the various items dropped by the Minotaur, the best one had emerged.

[“Bull Leather”]

– Category: Possession

– Description: A high-quality cowhide suitable for crafting armor due to its toughness.

It is a material used for creating the Minotaur’s armor.

The blueprint for the armor had also appeared.

[“Design: Minotaur Armor”]

– Category: Consumable

– Description: An item with six combinations that can be used to create the unique item, Minotaur Armor. It’s best to prepare to jot down the combinations before using it.

Most likely, the “Bull Leather” would be listed among the materials in the blueprint.

‘I already know it though.’

In any case, the blueprint was essentially a consumable item.

‘It reveals the item’s combinations when used, but…’

Because it disappears after one use, it was best to either memorize it or jot it down somewhere.

‘I don’t need it, though. I have everything in my head.’

He had no intention of crafting the Minotaur’s armor, as it was exclusively designed for tanks.

He already had a set of armor in mind, so this item wasn’t necessary. However, he decided to keep it for the time being, as unique design blueprints could fetch a high price.

‘I’ve mostly acquired great items.’

Satisfied, he returned to his party members, who were all wide-eyed in astonishment.

“Is everyone okay?”

“Yes? Um… yes.”

Their expressions seemed to say that they hadn’t expected it to be a one-hit kill.

Among them, Heo Taeseok’s expression was particularly peculiar.

‘What’s with that guy…? What’s with that look?’

He was gazing at Ryu Min with a dreamy expression, resembling someone smitten with love.

It seemed like he had lost his mind.

‘He’s going to become a follower, so it’s not like I don’t understand… but maybe I should keep my distance?’

Ryu Min didn’t want any misunderstandings.

In the midst of it all, An Sang-cheol was secretly amazed.

‘What just happened? It was so fast that I couldn’t even see it properly.’

One moment, it seemed like a flash of lightning in the darkness, and the next, the Minotaur’s head had fallen.

‘Was it a skill? Or maybe… a regular attack?’

Either way, what was certain was that the boss had been defeated in one swift move.

‘To think he’d take down the boss in one shot…’

Upon reflection, it still seemed absurd.

Afterward, pillars of light descended and enveloped them.

With the boss defeated, they had passed the round, although their ranking remained uncertain.

Ryu Min gazed at the remaining bosses.

‘Now, only nine tickets left. There’s not much time left, so they need to hurry.’

There was no time to dawdle.

Realizing this, the parties scattered across the area and began to engage the Minotaurs.

Soon, the game came to an end.

[You’ve defeated 101 bosses, haven’t you?]

As the time limit drew to a close and the bosses were all dealt with, the angel appeared.

[For the teams that failed to defeat the bosses, there’s no need to worry; you will immediately be eliminated.]

“No, please!”

“Wait, Angel, just a moment…”

Pssss-

Amidst the swirling dust, Priscilla spoke, her voice trembling.

[Shall we take a look at the rankings?]

★ Round 6 Results ★

[Overall]

└ 1st place: Black Scythe and 4 others 00:00:01

└ 2nd place: Heavenly Demon and 4 others 00:03:21

└ 3rd place: Dumb Fools and 4 others 00:04:09

[Zone C-ESKS007]

└ 1st place: Black Scythe and 4 others 00:00:01

└ 2nd place: Kim Suhanmu and 4 others 00:05:31

└ 3rd place: Rice Eater and 4 others 00:05:58

[By the way, the nicknames on the results screen have been credited to the most contributing humans.]

Players who checked the rankings were taken aback.

“What’s this? Why isn’t our team in 1st place? We definitely defeated it first, didn’t we?”

“Black Scythe’s team is in 1st place? The team that took so long?”

Priscilla, overhearing their complaints, couldn’t help but smirk.

[Who said that? Who said the ranks would be based on the order of defeat. As you can see, the ranking is determined by the time it takes to kill the boss.]

“Time?”

“Ah… So, that’s why our team is in last place…”

[The longest time taken was 11 minutes and 30 seconds. I can’t imagine how someone could spend over 11 minutes on a single cow. These inferior humans, I swear.]

Priscilla, who had been mocking them, checked the records once more.

“On the other hand, the shortest time was 1 minute. It belongs to Black Scythe’s team, and, well, it’s a decent performance…]

“Angel! The time is wrong!”

[What are you talking about?]

“The time, I mean!”

[Is it not 1 minute… No?]

Feeling something was amiss, Priscilla blinked and looked again.

[It’s not 1 minute… It’s 1 second?]

When Black Scythe’s team defeated the boss, it took only 1 second.

Priscilla realized her mistake too late and wore a bewildered expression.

[1 second? Just 1 second?]

She murmured under her breath, seemingly unaware that humans were watching her in astonishment.

The angel, who had only just realized her mistake, broke into a cold sweat.

[Hmm, it seems that a record of 1 second is possible. Anyway, how weak must the boss be…]

Her earlier boast about the boss’s strength now seemed completely contradictory.

[Well, first, let’s reward the top three ranks. The rewards will be given only to the person with the highest contribution, so please keep that in mind.]

A welcome message appeared in front of Ryu Min.

[Congratulations! You’ve achieved 1st place in this zone!]

[Congratulations! You’ve achieved 1st place overall!]

[‘Black Scythe’ is ranked 1st in the overall and zone rankings.]

[As the 1st place reward for this zone, you will receive a ‘High Epic Helmet Selection Voucher!’]

[As the 1st place reward for the overall ranking, you will receive a ‘Special Reward Selection Box!’]

‘A High Epic Helmet?’

Ryu Min smiled faintly.

It was about time to change his helmet anyway.

[You can choose one of the following epic helmets.]

[Please touch the desired reward.]

└ 1. Angel’s Ring

└ 2. Minotaur’s Bullhide Helm

└ 3. Hermes’ Feathered Helm

‘Among these, the feathered helm suits me best. It has some pretty appealing stats.’

When he selected option 3, the item information appeared.

“Hermes’ Feathered Helm”

– Category: Helmet

– Grade: Epic

– Defense: 180

– Effects: Agility +10, [Invisibility] available

– Durability: 1,500/1,500

– Usage Restriction: Expert rank or higher

– Description: A helmet modeled after Hermes’ feathered cap. It’s not a genuine article, but it allows you to use invisibility when needed.
