Chapter 145
outside the arena.
The Olympiad headquarters was currently in a state of chaos.
“It’s also a mess.”
“There is no way to move the security wall!”
“In order to enter the inside of the stadium, it seems that there is no choice but to go through the cave directly from the outside.”
Due to the sudden power outage, the system that manages the inside of the artificial cave has completely stopped working.
It is impossible to move the protective wall, let alone CCTV inside.
“Do you think it’s possible to break through the outer wall?”
“It is possible. However, it will take some time.”
“How much do you need?”
“At least two hours… … .”
bang!
The chairman of the steering committee hit the table hard and got up from his seat.
“Are you kidding me?”
Two hours in this situation where one hour is urgent? It was clear that he was making fun of himself. Or you’re stupid enough to not be able to properly grasp the current situation.
“I’m sorry.”
“… … Tsk.”
And this employee seemed to be the latter. An idiot who can’t even grasp the situation properly.
“also. Any other opinions?”
“… … .”
“… … .”
Silence fell in the hall.
Everyone couldn’t come up with a suitable alternative.
“… … Tsk.”
The chairman clicked his tongue with an expression that he did not like the current situation very much.
‘Things that don’t help.’
Of course, the chairman couldn’t come up with an alternative solution either.
No matter how much I thought about it, there was no answer.
It is impossible to break the protective wall.
Destroying the outer wall is also impossible due to time constraints.
There is no way to enter the interior, so it is impossible to send salvation.
‘That’s why I can’t ask for outside support.’
It’s not just the open raid arena that is currently having problems.
In the vicinity of the Olympiad Stadium, an unknown monster runaway phenomenon occurred in about 20 states.
As such a situation, of course, all reserve personnel were put into the field.
‘No, there is no point in calling an outside manpower in the first place.’
Every aspect of the Olympiad escort team is never inferior to an external elite escort team.
The reason why you can’t enter the arena is because there is a high possibility that the arena will explode if you forcefully enter because of the magic circuits installed in the arena, not because there is no way to break through.
The security wall is the same reason.
Therefore, there is no point in calling for outside support.
‘I don’t know if a mage of the level of the master of the tower steps forward… … .’
Archmages of Circle 8 or higher.
If it were them, they might be able to safely break through the outer wall of the stadium and enter the inside.
In particular, the Red Mage Tower Lord, who is an authority on such magical devices, might be able to do something.
‘However, I can’t get in touch.’
The problem is that I can’t get in touch with the red mage tower lord.
There was no response even though he sent a message that his disciple, Dalia Salentia, was in crisis.
‘The owner of the green mage tower and Shin In-hyeok can’t be contacted either.’
All three wizards from the 8th Circle, whom the chairman can immediately ask for help, are out of contact.
All three do not respond even though their heir is in danger.
‘I’m going crazy.’
The chairman grabbed his head and bit his lip.
I don’t know what to do with this situation now.
“Chairman!”
“What!”
The chairman exclaimed nervously. Her usual aching head seemed to grow even more painful at the loud voice of that subordinate.
“If it’s nothing… … .”
If you called yourself for something insignificant, I will not forgive you.
It was when I was thinking that.
“Chew, the blue mage tower lord has arrived!”
“… … Wh-what?”
The chairman’s eyes widened.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t have enough time to wait. Excuse me right away.”
At the same time, the door to the control room opened and Kim Kang-in appeared.
With a bandage wrapped around her, she is leaning on Jeong Soo-ah.
“Lord of the Blue Magic Tower! Mo, are you okay?”
Few people know about the injury of the Blue Mage Tower Master.
And among those very few people, the chairman of the steering committee also belonged.
“It’s not okay. However, I don’t think it’s a situation where you can just sit back and say things aren’t okay.”
The blue mage lord replied with a serious expression.
“About the current situation… … Do you know?”
“yes. I know. I can’t explain it to you.”
As for how the current situation is going, the blue mage lord knows much better than the chairman.
‘A runaway of monsters due to the appearance of the Dark Mage King. And the control spells and restraints of the monsters in the arena due to the runaway.’
The restraints and control spells of the monsters are released all at once, and all the spells in the arena collapse.
The system went into a fuse state, and it was dead.
This is the full picture of what is currently happening in the Olympiad Open Raid arena.
‘I am the only one who can save the students trapped in this arena.’
Sofia Anechevri is responding to the appearance of the Dark Mage King, but the situation is never good.
Sophia, who has something to protect, is overwhelmingly inferior.
Because of that, James, Min Ga-yeon, and Shin In-hyeok are all tied to that side.
Other than that, other powers are moving to stop the rampaging monsters.
The only person who can solve the problem here is Kim Kang-in himself.
“Please guide me to the security wall. I will break the security code myself with my own eyes and create an access road to enter the interior.”
“… … Are you okay?”
“yes.”
The condition of the body is never good.
If you try to break the mana code of the security wall by using Hong-ok’s eyes at full power here, you will inevitably suffer from aftereffects.
“it’s okay.”
But it doesn’t matter.
If only I could save countless juniors trapped inside with this one body, it was the sea I wished for.
As the one who goes ahead, it is the duty to lead those who follow behind.
“All right. If you say so… … .”
As if feeling Kim Kang-in’s strong will, the chairman rose from his seat with a serious expression.
“I will guide you right away.”
* * *
Inside the open raid arena.
A total of 10 people stood in a circle in the aisle leading from the upper boss room to the last boss room, and were finally reconciling their opinions.
“That is all. Is there anything you don’t understand or have questions about?”
Shin Ha-yul explained all the operations and asked while making eye contact with the other nine people in turn.
No one asked any specific questions. It was a strategy that had already been explained before, so there was nothing to question.
“Then I know you don’t have any questions.”
“Only me.”
Then Dahlia raised her hand.
“It’s a question that has nothing to do with the operation. Are ten of us really enough?”
Dahlia’s expression looked rather uneasy.
“I don’t know why I had to wait for the other team’s players in the middle boss zone area. It wouldn’t be enough even if we gathered them all and told them to come to support.”
Shin Ha-yul, who completed the current situation, immediately selected only elite members.
The ten members who were selected in this way are now in this position.
The six elite members of the Korean team, including Shin Ha-yul, are Dahlia, Sara, Kyle, and Maia.
All other characters were sent back to the boss zone of the lieutenant.
With orders to split up and tell the other teams to wait in the middle boss zone.
“Why?”
Dahlia couldn’t figure out why. Why did Shin Ha-yul choose to reduce power?
“As everyone knows, the tricolor tiger is a special monster in which the three tigers, red, green and blue, are treated as one entity.”
It is not a three-color tiger because the color of its fur is a mixture of three tabby patterns.
The tricolor tiger is a type of triplets monster in which the three individuals are classified as one.
“As it is a special monster where one is all and the whole is one, it has a special ability that cannot be killed unless all three monsters are defeated at the same time.”
This is why even though there are three tigers in three primary colors, they are classified as one monster.
Three primary color tigers cannot be killed unless all three are defeated at the same time.
If any of the three entities survive, the other two respawn.
As if an amoeba divides, it becomes three entities again centering on one entity.
“In terms of dealing with such monsters, the quantity is rather only in Germany.”
As long as there is a tricky condition to defeat all three at the same time, uncontrolled power will only do harm.
“Honestly, not everyone is skilled enough to deal with a three-color tiger.”
Aside from its uniqueness, the tricolor tiger has strong power.
Each of the three objects is rated as A-Rank, Tier 1.
In dealing with such monsters, other players are rather stumbling blocks.
“how is it. Can you explain?”
“… … uh. I understand.”
Dahlia nodded with a serious expression.
After hearing the words, Shin Ha-yul’s judgment was the best.
“Anyone else have questions?”
“Then I only have one… … .”
Adela quietly raised her hand.
“Isn’t it possible to forcibly open the security wall at the entrance of the stadium by using Shinan?”
Adela knows about Shin Ha Yul’s interference and corruption.
With that power, wouldn’t it be possible to break the magic formula of the security wall and twist it open by force?
That was the question I was thinking about.
“no. Unfortunately, I can’t.”
“… … why?”
“Why? It’s because my eyes aren’t omnipotent.”
The limits of interference and destruction are clear.
Interfering with high-level mana codes such as the security wall is impossible for the current servant rate.
“Is it impossible at all?”
“hmm. It won’t be 100% impossible. If you’re overdoing it… … Roughly half and half?”
Of course, seeing as how he broke down the iron door blocking Horus’ chamber in the previous pages of the fifth trial, it might be possible somehow.
“But you can’t risk your life with a 50% chance, right? That’s why I gave up on breaking down the security wall.”
But that’s literally just an uncertain hypothesis that ‘might’ be possible. I couldn’t bet everything on an operation that might or might not work.
“I understood.”
Adela nodded her head in agreement.
“… … It’s even more amazing that you can break that solid barrier with a 50% chance.”
Dahlia laughed incredulously.
To think that even that level of security could be breached if done well.
what a monster you are
“hmm. He is also my rival.”
Kyle nodded his head with an expression of ‘Sure it is’.
When this battle is over, it will be this time that Shin Ha-yul will face off.
The eyes that showed such a strong will stood out.
“Then do you have any other questions?”
Shin Ha-yul asked again.
This time, everyone was silent.
“great. Then let’s go right away.”
Shin Ha-yul, convinced that there were no questions asked, said let’s go inside.
“… … Are you going? where Aren’t you waiting for the tricolor tiger to appear here?”
Sara, who had been silent for a long time, asked a question as if wondering.
“You have to go in. There is no need to wait for the three primary color tigers to recover.”
The reason why the tricolor tiger is currently quiet is because it is recovering its strength.
There is no reason to wait until the tricolor tiger recovers all its strength.
“That’s what I know… … .”
Sara quietly turned her head and looked at the iron door of the last boss room.
Originally, it was a security wall that would open in response to the terminal device, but now it has completely stopped its function.
“How are you going to break through this?”
It is impossible to break through this security wall and enter inside.
So Sara thought that she was just waiting for the tricolor tiger to come out.
“How did you break through? Adela said it earlier. I will write a new report.”
Shin Ha-yul slowly walked to the security wall and put his hand on it.
“… … Are you trying to force it through?”
“uh.”
“You said it could be pierced with a 50% chance, and you had to do a lot of work.”
“That’s the story of breaking through the main security wall of this arena.”
The security wall at the entrance to the stadium is different from the security wall here.
With a security wall of this size, it is possible to break through without straining.
“Well, I know when I see you.”
After Shin Ha-yul opened his eyes, he read the magic of the security wall.
It was a monotonous magic formula that could not be compared to the magic formula I had seen before in Darkness’s Shelter.
It is not a complex deformation structure like the stadium entrance, so it is easy to analyze.
“I will pierce.”
At the same time as Shin Ha-yul’s declaration, the entire iron gate shone brightly.
and right after that.
Clink!
With the sound of the magic formula collapsing, the iron door lost its firmness.
“Now this wall can be pierced with light wind magic… … .”
It was time to try to cut through the simple iron security wall with wind magic.
“… … ! Everyone back down!”
Shin Ha-yul shouted.
At the same time, ten people jumped back.
That moment.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh-!
The huge iron gate was completely destroyed, revealing three monsters inside.
A giant tiger the size of an elephant with shiny red, blue, and green fur.
churrr… … .
three and one.
all and one.
one and all.
A special monster with the world’s only singularity.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh
The tricolor tiger roared fiercely.
