The Support Ate it All Chapter 279

Episode 279 No.50 The Labyrinth of Transfer (5)

Kim Gap-doo was shot forward in an instant and arrived in front of Knight Wublek.

The bastard swung his arms wildly as if trying to clear away the annoying obstacles, but Kim Gap-du narrowly avoided them and dug deeper.

And then, from a distance that was close enough to touch, he threw his fist like lightning.

– Boom!

The sound of an explosion rang out and Oobleck’s massive body staggered.

Perhaps because he judged that he had no chance of winning in a head-on confrontation, he returned to the same tactics he used when dealing with Zhuge Xiaosu.

A method of quickly opening up distance and firing sword energy.

– Wedge wedge wedge—!

While continuing the pursuit with Kim Gap-du, Jegal So-so quickly checked the faces of the people who had joined him and then gave instructions.

“Jeong Jong-myeong, you take charge of the battery.”

“Okay.”

It’s best to have the person with the best firepower in charge of the artillery.

If Jeong Jong-myeong had wanted to, he could have landed a stronger blow than Inferno Fist.

On the one hand, there was also the reason that I had to hide my identity as much as possible.

I’ve already brought out the Inferno Fist in front of a few people, but it won’t do any good to increase the number of witnesses.

‘It’s a forbidden skill anyway.’

Unless it’s a really urgent situation, it’s best to just bury it.

Soon, Jeong Jong-myeong sat down in a corner and began to recite the spell.

Judging from the fact that the faculty and staff are assisting from the side, they seem to be part of the support group.

Occasionally, it will deflect the blinding sword energy that flies in, and greatly enhance the power of magic.

As the two continued their chanting, a large magic circle was engraved on the ceiling a little distance away.

Zhuge Liang pointed to the range of the magic circle and gave the following instructions.

“Drive it over there.”

“Okay.”

After Gip Gap-du gave a short answer, he kicked the ground hard and was launched forward.

And then he dug deep into the Oobleck Knight again and threw a punch.

– Boom—!

Oobleck was pushed towards the magic circle and then quickly backed away as if trying to put some distance between himself and the magic circle.

However, just as the bastard was about to step back and step outside the magic circle’s range, a thick wall of ice suddenly appeared behind him.

I cast Ice Wall.

The bastard didn’t have time to dodge and ended up slamming his body into the wall.

– Kwung!

The ice wall was full of cracks, as if it would break at any moment.

Perhaps one more strike would suffice, but the Oobleck Knight seems to have decided that even that is a waste of time.

Immediately turn around and run somewhere else.

Of course, the path ahead was already blocked by Zhuge Liang.

He strikes down the swinging longswords one by one without avoiding them.

It may seem like an unnecessary action, but it keeps his arms busy and blocks him from firing his sword energy elsewhere.

Not only that, shadow thorns sprouted out from under his feet, piercing him and further restricting his movements.

Dang Gyu-yeong smiled with a sense of conversion.

“It’s going in properly now.”

‘After all, hunting should be done by several people.’

There are so many people that there is no room to escape.

Kim Gap-du, Dang Gyu-yeong, Jegal So-so, and I blocked his escape route from all sides and forcibly fixed him in a magic circle.

After a while, as if Jeong Jong-myeong’s casting was over, the magic circle carved into the ceiling sent down a blue pillar of light.

– Kwaaaaah—!

The Oobleck Knight was flattened by the pillar of light, and soon crumbled into nothingness.

However, Zhuge Xiaozhu stared at the spot for a while, and only after confirming that he had completely defeated the bastard did he lower his sword.

“I will fix it.”

Everyone obediently followed Zhuge Liang’s instructions.

This means that he tacitly acknowledges that she is taking command.

While the support staff cast light healing spells on everyone, Kim Gap-du looked at the three of us one by one and spoke.

“There doesn’t seem to be any injuries.”

The three on Kim Gap-du’s side had accumulated large and small wounds from the continuous fighting, and were also very tired.

On the other hand, the three of us didn’t have a single scratch, and we were somewhat relieved from our fatigue after resting in the hidden room.

Dang Gyu-yeong answered nonchalantly.

“I was sneaking around.”

“I’m sure you can do it.”

Gip Gap-du quickly understood and moved on.

But then another question occurred to him, and he winked at me and asked.

“… … This person?”

I am disguised as a totem of imitation.

Not everyone is as quick-witted as Jegal Soso, so it was understandable that Kim Gap-du and Jeong Chong-myeong would not have noticed.

Of course, I anticipated this situation and prepared my words in advance.

I thought it would be best to keep my mouth shut, so Dang Gyu-yeong explained on my behalf.

“I didn’t hear the details, but I heard that he played a very important role in this expedition. Did you see Mr. Lee Soo-dok guarding it?”

“I saw it.”

“We have to guard you while you’re away.”

“I see, I understand.”

Kim Gap-doo nodded his head.

Jeong Jong-myeong’s eyes flashed sharply for a moment, but he seemed to have decided to put aside his doubts and focus on the punitive force’s goal.

My abilities will be revealed once I reach the boss room anyway.

After finishing the maintenance, the group continued towards the next room.

Dang Gyu-yeong continued to hide using shadow magic as before, but he was increasingly discovered.

Because there are a lot of people, the power of stealth is relatively reduced, and wizards appear more frequently among the Ooblecks.

So after a few more battles, we had some more time to regroup.

In the midst of all this, Jeong Jong-myeong let out a small sigh and said.

“Still, that’s a relief. At least I’m not lost.”

If you had challenged the Labyrinth without knowing anything, you would have ended up in the same room you came from, or even ended up moving away from the boss room.

And you must have had to fight countless unnecessary battles.

On the other hand, if you follow the strategy guide, you will be progressing steadily without getting sidetracked.

Jeong Jong-myeong showed the revised version of the strategy book to Dang Gyu-yeong.

“Tell the person who gave it to me that I’m grateful.”

“Yeah, I guess so.”

Dang Gyu-yeong answered nonchalantly and then secretly smiled at me.

It was as if he was asking, ‘Hey, did you just hear that?’

* * *

After that, the attack proceeded smoothly.

The Oobleck Knights gradually gained more limbs and took on the appearance of octopuses or raccoons, making them more difficult to deal with.

Still, because the group was well-organized, we were able to advance steadily without suffering major damage.

It’s been an unknown number of maintenance hours.

The group put their heads together and checked the strategy book.

Jeong Jong-myeong’s eyes deepened.

“We’re almost there, boss room.”

On the map, we’re almost there.

Teleportation portals leading to the boss room will also appear one by one soon.

However, the expressions on the group’s faces were not very bright.

‘There’s one more hurdle left.’

The monsters guarding the rooms around the boss room are exceptionally strong.

Even in the strategy guide, it is clearly emphasized as ‘caution.’

The Witch of Corruption would have naturally prepared something more.

Kim Gap-doo said in a nonchalant manner.

“I guess I have no choice anyway. I have no choice but to go.”

“I guess we should hurry up. Other people might have already started the boss fight.”

Jeong Jong-myeong said something, and everyone nodded in agreement.

Finally, Zhuge Liang gave instructions.

“As always, I will proceed calmly. Please prepare.”

Soon, the group gathered near the teleportation magic circle.

And when he breathed mana into it, a bright light burst out and engulfed the group.

– Paaaaat!

But before my vision could fully recover, a polite greeting was heard from somewhere.

“welcome.”

Everyone flinched and looked straight ahead, and there was a knight saluting us.

The difference from before is that instead of having multiple limbs, it only has two arms and two legs, and its equipment is relatively simple.

But no one in the group looked down on him.

Kim Gap-doo glared at Woobleck and narrowed his eyebrows.

“… … are you talking?”

“Is it weird to say that?”

“No, it’s not weird. I’m just a little surprised.”

Having the intelligence to be able to have a conversation means that it is a high-level entity.

The Oobleck Knight said.

“You’d be surprised. I heard that the master put a lot of effort into creating me.”

“I guess so.”

It wouldn’t have been easy even for the Witch of Corruption, as it involved swallowing an A-rank monster.

But she was given over a month to do it, so she would have done it eventually.

The Ublek knight spoke again, politely and respectfully.

“Of course, my role is simple. Stop you, or at least wear you down as much as possible.”

“That’s only natural.”

“Yes, I hope you understand.”

“……what?”

“Even if my method is a bit cowardly.”

Then it kicked the ground and shot out at a terrifying speed.

The place he’s aiming for is right behind you.

It was where the principal, support staff, and I were located.

‘How cowardly. I like it.’

If he could just wipe out the wizards, it would be the best choice for him, as it would reduce both firepower and sustain.

I acknowledged the guy in my heart.

Of course, Jeonryeol wasn’t stupid, so there was no way he would let that guy go just like that.

Kim Gap-du and Jegal So-so block the bastard’s path and attack together.

But just as they were about to clash, several long, thick arms shot out at incredible speed from Oobleck’s single arm.

– Kwaaaaah—!

“……this!”

“… … !”

Kim Gap-du and Jegal So-so hurriedly switched to defensive.

Since the opponent is a slime type monster, they would have expected such an irregular attack.

But the power contained therein far exceeded expectations, and the two people were thrown to the sides.

In the meantime, Oobleck quickly broke through the ranks and closed the distance towards us.

As the ice wall suddenly rose up, the guy immediately swung his arm down.

– Quasi-jik,

The solid ice wall shatters in an instant, sending shards of ice flying everywhere.

It was pretty effective up until now, but that guy is an A-rank mid-boss, so it’s bound to get through right away.

Of course, my intention from the beginning was not to stop him.

‘It’s blocking the view.’

Not only him, but also the group’s view.

[Inferno Fist]

[Overheat]

The flames in his fist transmitted tremendous power to every part of his body.

After I had raised my physical abilities to a high level, I jumped into the flurry of ice shards.

The bastard instinctively swung his arm, but I dodged it by a hair’s breadth.

At the same time, he secretly inserted his index finger so that no one would notice.

– Phew,

And then he quickly kicked the ground and backed away from the bastard.

The index finger, which had been frozen solid like ice, quickly melts and returns to its original state.

‘This is surprisingly effective.’

– Damn it,

Part of the bastard’s arm quickly froze.

The supporters ate it all
