Episode 75 – Raid Battle (3)
The waiting room for students was almost the same as a library.
I had nothing to say.
Let’s say that the overwhelming gap shown in the first round.
But what about round 2?
The difficulty of round 2 was more extreme than round 1.
Breaking through the infinitely regenerating Durahan Corps and bringing the magic crystal.
All three academy teams had a reason to set a record close to 1 hour.
The fact that it was cleared in the first place was an amazing record.
However, the record of the Dream Team was only 4 minutes and 23 seconds.
All that was said was that he brought the magic crystal as soon as he entered.
Besides, the record of 19 seconds in the third round was…
“My God… Captain! Now, are you even using the Lee Geo-chang?”
crazy.
At the same time as Min-yul said, all the students in the waiting room had a thought that popped into their heads.
Iggyeochang is the same as Iggyeogeom (以氣馭劍), and it is a word that is substituted for a spear, not a sword.
And the sword that fell from the hand of the sword moved freely alone and attacked the enemy.
It was a state where even the Sword Saint took a single step with the skill called the ultimate sword along with the heart sword.
By the way, only the students used this gear window?
does that make sense?
“Captain, for real…”
In the waiting room, only Minyul’s voice resonated emptyly.
After such a shocking silence, the 4th round of the raid battle began.
And the raid battle, the 4th round, was a little unusual.
It was a way to protect the magic crystal from the infinitely pouring monsters.
Of course, professional hunters were tasked with raiding dungeons, so it was not common to protect something.
However, there was a case like that, and it was when the dungeon break happened.
Bounce out of the dungeon with the brakes, pro hunters were obliged to protect civilians from monsters.
Pro Hunter is a job derived from Cataclysm Heroes anyway.
Although the meaning has declined a lot now, professional hunters had a mission to protect civilians.
So Seo-jun, Min-yul, and Su-yeon stood in front of the dungeon gate to proceed with the 4th round.
And I was waiting for the official to announce the start of the 4th round.
“hmm···”
But for some reason, Suyeon’s expression didn’t look normal.
Seo-joon tilted his head and asked Soo-yeon.
“What’s wrong?”
“huh? Oh, it’s nothing different…”
At Seo-joon’s question, Soo-yeon shook her head slightly and continued.
“I feel like that person has been staring at me ever since.”
Seo-joon slowly turned his head following Su-yeon’s wink, and there was a class team from Gaon Academy.
They were also standing in front of the dungeon gate, but it seemed that the entry order overlapped.
And as Soo-yeon said, they were looking this way.
But literally just staring at it, I didn’t feel anything different.
Seojun looked at him like that and just shrugged.
It wasn’t that he was arguing, and there was no reason to be offended just by looking at him.
“Teams that are ready can enter right away!”
Before long, a call from an official could be heard just in time.
“let’s go.”
Seo-joon pushed himself into the gate without hesitation.
Woo woo woo.
The first thing I saw along with the reversing view was a wide plain.
And it was a blue crystal that was placed in the center.
It seemed that the crystal was a magic crystal that had to be protected.
And that magic crystal was firmly embedded somewhere.
It seemed that they had to defend the area, not just protect the magic crystal.
After Seo-joon confirmed that Min-yul and Soo-yeon had entered the dungeon, he moved toward the magic crystal.
Seo-joon was followed by Min-yul and Soo-yeon.
That moment when we arrived at the magic crystal.
“Keeeeeeeeeeeeeee!”
A terrifying noise erupted from somewhere.
But maybe it’s because of the feeling that something is familiar?
Seojun slowly turned his head as he grabbed Longinus’s spear.
And that gruesome sound that even the eerie demons flowed out.
“A dryad?”
It was none other than the sound of a 6-star monster dryad.
As a tree-type monster, it was a monster that I encountered in the dungeon where I saved the devil and full iron last time.
“Keeek!”
“Keeeeeeeeeeeeeee!”
The dryads that were created in all directions began to spit out screams as if resonating.
Seo-joon said with a laugh leaking out for no reason.
“Nice to see you here again.”
Pasasa sasasasasak!
Then, as if receiving Seo-jun’s greeting, the dryads began to shoot out stems and branches at once.
The target was none other than the magic crystal placed in the center.
“Let’s say hello once in a rough way!”
Seojun held Longinus’ spear in reverse and rotated it as it was.
Whoa!
Papabak!
Following Seo-jun’s touch, Longinus’ spear spun like a windmill, bouncing off flying stems and branches.
Seo-joon continued to rotate the spear and slightly turned his head.
Ka-ang!
Looking back, Minyul was cutting off the flying stems and branches with his double dagger.
Whoops!
Next to it, Soo-yeon also casts a barrier magic she learned when, protecting the magic crystal.
However, unlike Min-yul, Su-yeon seemed to have not mastered it yet, so it swayed unsteadily whenever the stems and branches collided.
Still, most of them were blocked by Seo-joon and Min-yul, so there didn’t seem to be any major problems.
If it goes like this, there won’t be a problem with continuing to endure.
However, this dungeon was an infinite number of dryads.
“Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!”
It was an instant for the dryads to be created without knowing the end.
Pasa sasa sasa sasa sasa!!!
At the same time, the stems and branches also began to pour out without knowing the end.
shit.
“Ugh!”
Eventually, Suyeon’s barrier began to crack first.
It seemed necessary to reduce the number of hair dryers.
Seo-joon made a quick decision and shouted at Min-yul.
“Min-yul! We need to reduce their numbers!”
“Okay boss!”
It was a simple conversation, but Minyul seemed to understand Seojun’s intentions at once.
Kang! Kang!
Min-yul cut off the flying stems and branches and immediately inserted the dagger.
Then he took out the bow on his back.
While changing weapons, there was an unavoidable gap.
Whoa!
As if he had expected it, Seo-joon filled the gap and bounced off the flying stems and branches.
And arrows poured out of Minyul’s bow as naturally as flowing water.
PABABABABAK!
“Kikki!”
When the arrows containing mana hit, the dryads began to fall one by one.
Min-yul continued to fire arrows, spewing out the flagship, which hit 3 out of 4 shots even though he fired rapidly.
Seo-joon shouted at Soo-yeon.
“Suyeon-ah! Don’t overdo it and protect only the magic crystal!”
“okay! Leave it alone!”
At Seo-joon’s words, Soo-yeon took a step back and seemed to stick closely to the magic crystal.
That’s how the positions started to stabilize according to each other’s roles.
Paba Baba Baba Park!
The stems and branches pouring out every time Minyul drew his bowstring were also significantly reduced.
Whoo! Whoa!
Seo-joon cut off the flying stems and branches.
Whoops!
Some of the leaks were blocked by the water-yeon barrier.
Of course, Seo-joon was busy bridging the gap between Min-yul and Su-yeon.
However, thanks to Seo-joon’s movements, the position gradually regained stability.
That’s how they protected the magic crystal with the momentum to last all day.
But things didn’t go so smoothly.
“Leader! No more arrows!”
Quite a long time passed, and Seo-joon suddenly came to his senses at the sudden cry of Min-yul.
When he turned his head, Minyul’s quiver was almost at the bottom.
He wouldn’t know if there was a kibisis like Seojun.
The number of arrows an individual could carry was limited.
At least it’s a shame that Min-yul showed off his wit by picking out the stems and branches of the dryads and shooting them out.
If it wasn’t for that, it would have hit rock bottom right away.
Min-yul shouted at Seo-joon, holding a dagger instead of a bow.
“Leader! I’d rather block this place, so the captain personally counts them…!”
Ka-ang!
Then, Min-yul cut off the flying stems and branches.
As if agreeing with Min-yul’s idea, Seo-joon jumped out at the dryads, kicking the ground without hesitation.
Pasasasasak!
Then, some of the stems and thorns that were concentrated in the magic crystal headed for Seo-jun.
Seo-jun straightened the stems and thorns pouring down like a shower.
Tadak! Tadadak!
And with the flamboyant body movements and the movements learned from Jang Sam-bong’s footwork lecture, it was not difficult to avoid.
It was a different dimension from Seojun just a few weeks ago.
Of course, the Dryads now were monsters embodied through sorcery.
That’s why the level was lower than the dryads they faced in actual dungeons.
Awesome!
However, even taking that into account, Seo-joon’s growth as seen now was not normal.
As Seojun swung the spear of Longinus, the dryad in front collapsed helplessly.
Seo-jun moved his body again and pushed the new type into the middle of the dryads.
“Keeeeeeeeeeeeeee!”
“Keeeeek!”
Then, from all directions, terrifying screams began to erupt at Seo-jun.
It was a terrible scream that seemed to have raked in thousands of demon souls.
I feel dizzy just by listening to it.
However, Seo-jun did not feel anything, perhaps due to his immobility.
Seo-joon calmed down and poured the power of the blade into the spear of Longinus.
Awesome! Perseok!
Seo-joon danced like he was walking among a group of dryads.
After some time passed, the number of dryads decreased significantly.
As a result, it is natural that the number of stems and branches that were heading for the magic crystals were drastically reduced.
As long as Seojun’s physical strength supported him, there seemed to be no major crisis.
“Did you really want to do this right away?”
Seo-joon smiled and moved his body again.
And it was then.
Whoops.
“Keeeeek!”
Through Seo-jun’s vision, the sight of a dryad regenerating suddenly caught his eye.
At first glance, it looked like a dryad was suddenly created in the air.
‘what···?’
However, the scene felt by Chiron’s senses was quite heterogeneous.
There was something in the air.
There was something in Chiron’s senses that he couldn’t see with his eyes.
At the same time, it contained an enormous amount of mana.
That is why Seojun is the core that implements this dungeon.
Or, I thought that it might be a medium that regenerates monsters.
But it could not be seen or captured.
It was only felt by Chiron’s senses, and it was something that would have been overlooked if he hadn’t seen it regenerate.
That’s why it’s a feeling that can’t be defined.
Awesome!
Seojun cut down an approaching dryad.
And using that short gap, he took out Gungnir from Kibisis.
Then, without hesitation, he threw Gungnir at something he felt.
Hey hey profit!
Then Gungnir shot out, scattering a fierce pongong sound.
Then, when Gungnir reached the place where Seojun felt.
Hey hey profit!
Gungnir just cut through the air.
‘……Is it an illusion?’
But now, Chiron’s senses were clearly telling him that there was something there.
“Keeeeeeeeeeeeeee!”
Hearing the dryad’s roar again, Seo-joon gripped the spear of Longinus again.
That moment.
‘Come to think of it…’
Seojun came up with a question about the spear of Longinus he was holding.
The Spear of Longinus, which Seo-jun uses as his main weapon, was a weapon from a transcendent store like Gungnir.
However, unlike Gungnir, it was also a weapon whose effect was not fully understood yet.
The Spear of Longinus must have been as effective as Gungnir.
maybe maybe…
momentary worry.
‘This or that!’
Seo-joon kicked the ground.
#
Back in time, when the Dream Team entered the dungeon.
Gaon’s class team was looking at such a dream team.
“They…how can they do that?”
“I know yeah. Could it be that he has committed some kind of cheating?”
Park Eun-jung and Do Min-joon were speaking one word at a time while looking at the dream team.
And was that not enough?
“Siwoo. what do you think?”
Do Min-joon asked Jung Si-woo for his opinion.
And in fact, Siwoo Jung was not too different from Minjoon Do.
“It is a useless question. We just do our best and that’s it.”
However, Jung Si-woo did not dare to show his emotions.
Whoops.
He just silently walked into the dungeon.
The monster he encountered in the dungeon was a dryad, a 6-star monster.
And Jeong Si-woo was unaware that dryads were monsters whose strengths were long-distance attacks.
This dungeon was a dungeon where monsters regenerated infinitely.
In a word, the 4th round was nothing but to stop the infinitely pouring stems and branches.
However, it was quite difficult to get to them through the pouring stems and branches.
And even if they approached, dryads would regenerate infinitely.
I could be isolated if I went wrong, and that was the end of the situation.
There was no reason to gamble at such a risk.
“Do Min-joon! You must be the center!”
“Don’t worry!”
Above all, there was Do Min-joon who used a shield in the class team.
It could give you a strategic edge in protecting something.
So, wouldn’t their team be able to widen the overwhelming gap this time? Jeong Si-woo thought.
Even if it’s a dream team.
.
.
dismissal.
After a long time, Clestim’s magic crystal was destroyed.
[Gaon Academy – Class Team: 44 minutes 51 seconds]
And the record that the Cles team endured was 44 minutes and 51 seconds.
Considering that the previous records of Hunter Mill and Ale were 20 minutes, the gap with them was more than twice as large.
“Good! This should be able to overwhelm the other teams!”
“I didn’t make a mistake this time?”
Do Min-joon and Park Eun-jung also knew the fact, so they did not hide their joy.
Jeong Si-woo didn’t say anything different, but the two knew very well that it meant that it was perfect.
That’s how good the judgment was, and there were no mistakes.
It was literally the best result possible by bumping into the limit to the limit.
Whoops.
That’s how the Cles team confidently went out of the dungeon.
And sure enough.
“I’m going to give up trying to judge the captain now.”
“Oh, brother. How can you do that?”
They were able to face the dream team that came out before them.
Seeing that, Jeong Si-woo nodded inwardly.
‘also···’
The entrance time of the Dream Team and the Class Team was the same.
Since they entered at the same time, the fact that the Dream Team came out first meant that the magic crystals were destroyed earlier than the Cles team.
In other words, the 4th round was the same as the meaning that the class team was ahead of the dream team.
‘Was that liver a fluke?’
Jeong Si-woo thought so and indifferently turned his head.
however.
“What, what…?”
“The record… why is it like that?”
Somehow, Do Min-joon and Park Eun-jung’s expressions were unusual.
Jung Si-woo’s gaze naturally turned to the display board.
And the expression of Jung Si-woo who checked the electronic display board.
[Dream Academy – Dream Team: <Unmeasurable>]
‘Measurable… Impossible…?’
For the first time, the feeling of bewilderment came to mind.
