Episode 95. Recently, a new craze was blowing in the
new record academy.
In terms of issues other than incidents, it was the first time since the tournament that it was on fire.
“It’s on the 10th floor now.”
“On the 10th floor, Adrias will no longer be able to use only magic, right?”
The embers of Modras Tower, which seemed to end after Diene, were rekindled due to Adrias.
Everyone survives up to the 10th floor.
In the eyes of the students, it was a question of how the hell that was possible.
It was difficult to grasp Adrias’ timely judgment and tactics unless he experienced it himself.
However, the outsiders, who had not left their seats and continued to watch, could tell.
How great Adrias is.
Even though they could not hear the sound from the screen, they could roughly guess what was going on through Adrias’ gestures and the movements of the members.
“You have one more unexpected talent.”
“If you send it to the northern fortress, it will be worth seeing. I heard that small-scale skirmishes are still frequent, and it would be nice if His Excellency Bagras knew about this fact.”
“It’s such a waste to send such talented people to the north! However, there is no dispute that he is a talented person capable of fighting and commanding.”
“In the first place, Adrias Cromwell may be a student right now, but when he graduates, he will be count. Everyone, be careful with your words.”
“Hehe, it became so obscure that I forgot about it. But I really don’t know how he still maintains his status as a count.”
At this point, Diene’s performance was over and the reporters who had withdrawn had no choice but to return.
Of course, it couldn’t match Diene’s record, but it was enough to become an issue if there were other outstanding performers in the same grade.
That’s how the front of Modras Tower was more lively than usual.
* * *
When we went up to the 10th floor, only a huge door was waiting for us.
Even though they had already taken enough rest on all floors and came up, everyone’s faces were clearly nervous.
‘I’d like to pass all the 10th floors if possible.’
I was able to see through all the gimmicks and weaknesses that others didn’t know about.
I was wondering if all of us could survive on this floor if we did well, but suddenly one of the freshmen came in front of me and bowed his head.
“Thank you so far. If you are a senior, you will probably pass the 10th floor safely. I may be eliminated, so I will thank you in advance.”
At first, he was a tough guy, but as we came up to this point together, he became my ardent fan.
After he said hello, the other guys started bowing one after another.
“I never thought I would go up to the 10th floor. All of this is thanks to you. Thank you for making it a valuable experience.”
“I was hoping for a prestigious knight corps, but thanks to you, that goal has changed. If I get a chance, I want to become a knight who can come up with the same tactics and strategies as my seniors and manage the knights myself. Thank you for making my life goals more solid.”
“Adrias senior, do you have a girlfriend? If not, can I go out and confess later?”
Everyone burst into laughter and a friendly atmosphere was created in a situation that could be darkened by Britney’s slightly mischievous words, the only point that was a little bit mischievous.
When even my classmate Vincent came to thank me, I shook my hand.
“Why do you think this is the end?”
At my words, all the members of the group who had been making noise as if this was the end looked at me.
“From now on, the 10th floor operation briefing begins. Everyone, listen carefully and follow me.”
Responding to everyone’s puzzled expression with a smile, he said.
“Let’s rewrite history once.”
* * *
I’ve never played a playable before and never finished below 10th floor.
As such, I could be proud that my understanding of the 10th floor was higher than anyone else.
‘The boss on the 10th floor is the Iron Golem.’
It was a monster that seemed weak just by hearing its name, but its danger and power were so great that it was called a boss. In particular, it was confirmed that he was kicked out of the fist once wrongly because he showed his strength.
And because it had speed equal to its strength, it could never be caught off guard.
Unlike its huge size, its speed was comparable to that of most knights, so in the case of a wizard, it was supported from the rear, but was unable to escape and was crushed by a golem approaching unexpectedly.
‘Because it’s a golem, its stamina is infinite. There’s no meaning to a wheel battle.’
Wheel battle, which is often used when facing a powerful opponent as an enemy, also did not work.
However, it was possible to stop the movement by destroying the power core, but it was not as easy as it sounds.
It was because the golem’s magic core changed its location from time to time, but I wasn’t worried about this.
“Whoa.”
Someone let out a nervous sigh.
I told them how to attack, including various gimmicks and weaknesses, from the strategy, but it seemed inevitable that they would be nervous.
“I will open the door.”
I nodded.
Then the door blocking the way started to open slowly.
“Are you sure Adrias will be okay?”
Vincent said in an anxious voice.
I raised my voice to ask everyone to listen to his question.
“Anyway, my grades are at the top of the list. No need to worry. Just do as I tell you.”
“okay. We’re at the top of the list anyway.”
Only then, seeing Vincent relieved, suddenly thought that it was fortunate that he was easy to handle.
I was going to try my best to let everyone pass through, but in the case of Vincent, since he is a wizard, I was worried that his movements were slow.
As the 10th floor is called the domain of demons, even the golems were not stupid, so it was easy for JoJo, who was slow to move like Vincent, to be targeted.
“That’s the Iron Golem.”
“Seeing it in real life, you can feel its size much more.”
All the doors opened, and I saw an iron golem standing in a large space.
Other than that, there were devices and traps hiding here and there, but they weren’t visible.
“Watch out for traps on both sides.”
I said it again even though I had already briefed it once just in case.
The crew nodded and walked forward.
Wei Ying.
thump thump.
Along with a huge vibrating sound, the sound of the mana core being driven resonated.
The door we had opened closed again, and the golem, who had been sleeping as if dead, straightened up from its curled up body and stood up to look at us.
“We go according to the operation.”
After speaking quietly to the members of the group, I started counting the numbers in my mind.
I entered the tower and pulled out Galaksur for the first time.
And as I said before, it moved.
Tadadak.
Quaang-!
I hit a golem that couldn’t move properly yet.
The tremendous recoil was reflected through the magic field surrounding the golem’s exterior.
’14 seconds. not bad.’
So while I was dragging ‘aggro’, each of them stood in their positions.
Since the 10th floor is a boss room, there was only one iron golem mob.
However, various traps were distributed in the large room, and the crew members ran to the locations in advance and were waiting.
“Vincent!”
I shouted as I slapped the golem that began to move slowly. Then, as soon as he entered, Vincent, who had been preparing the magic beforehand, swung a staff the size of his height.
Kwaaaak-!
It was water magic that made me think it was too much for Vincent. However, most of the power was absorbed by the magic field surrounding the golem, and the golem was only wet.
Maybe that’s why the golem’s aggro was still on me.
thud!
The golem, unscathed, punched me in an instant.
I intentionally dodged it narrowly and ran to the first target.
’41 seconds. Timing is life.’
I looked behind me and ran, confirming that the golem’s aggro was properly drawn, and shouted.
“Gilbert! Now!”
clap.
At the same time as my cry, Gilbert touched the trap and fell into it.
Then, a high-voltage current began to flow from the bottom of a certain part.
Kwajijik!
I was thinking ahead, so I made a quick turn after stopping quickly without stepping on the floor. However, the golem that was following me couldn’t overcome the inertia and stepped on the floor.
Kwajijiji-!
The iron golem flashed with a tremendous noise.
Vincent’s water magic, set in advance, met the electric trap and exerted a great effect, destroying the magic field surrounding the golem in half.
‘1 minute and 12 seconds.’
The golem took a huge amount of damage from the electricity, but turned around and followed me without hesitation. It was like an artificial life form that felt no pain.
“Angelo! not there! Two steps to the left!”
“Yes yep!”
I shouted at one of the members of the group standing at the next target.
Then Angelo hurriedly took two steps to the side with a nervous expression.
thud!
At that moment, the golem stopped, clasped its hands together, and lifted it above its head, as if the attack was stronger than I expected. That was the signal to move on to the next phase.
“Operation change! B formation!”
However, since it was already an expected category, it was changed to the second operation that had been planned in advance.
The crew ran to my side, being careful not to touch the trap, and soon the golem slammed the floor.
Kwaaang-!
The floor roared and crumbled like waves.
At the same time, the bottom of the edge collapsed and cliffs were formed in all directions.
We jumped off the bumpy floor to avoid it, and after Vincent jumped on his back by one of the members, he immediately moved to find his job.
‘Greece.’
After making the floor slippery in advance, I slowly took out the potion I had prepared.
This is 3 minutes and 23 seconds.
‘It’s faster than planned, but it doesn’t matter.’
After hitting the floor, the members of the group beat and passed the golem, which had a little delay.
Soon, the golem slowly stood up and the location of its eyes glowed red, realizing that the time had come, I shouted.
“Vincent! It’s 9 o’clock! All ready!”
Vincent and Jo Won, who was carrying Vincent, ran towards the golem facing the 9 o’clock direction.
The question now is whether Vincent’s magic is ready and whether his magic can withstand it.
‘If you succeed, everyone can pass.’
Finally, the long-awaited attack of the golem began.
Wei Ying.
Beep beep-!
Burning beams burst from the golem’s eyes.
With that incredible rate of fire, I was worried that Vincent might not be able to get the timing right.
“Aaaaaaa!”
With Vincent’s scream, the magic was quickly activated.
In an instant, before the light beam reached Vincent and the assistant who brought him, the mirror magic was activated and reflected the light beam.
“Keep calm and act as planned!”
The reflected rays spread out in all directions.
Each member of the group managed to avoid the spreading beam, and one beam finally reached the golem.
Quagga Gagagak!
Crack!
‘It’s broken.’
The magic field is broken.
Then, the members of the team who were waiting immediately rushed at the golem whose magic field was broken.
Wedge love!
Quaang!
As I said earlier, thanks to the team members who focused on the legs, the golem collapsed due to the slippery floor.
cooong!
‘5 minutes and 11 seconds.’
Thinking of the time, I immediately approached the golem.
“It’s 5 minutes. Attack the part you were in charge of earlier.”
“Can you just say it one more time!”
“Team 1 is the left arm! Group 2 is the heart! Group 3 is the right flank!”
Before entering, each of them had assigned a location to attack.
From what I’ve experienced so far, the location of the magic core changes every minute, and the place where the magic core will be in the 5th minute is the left arm, left chest, or right side. Because the location changes every minute, I told you the attack part according to the changing location in advance, but it seemed that I was distracted because it was an urgent situation.
Kwagak! Kwajik!
Even without a magic field, the body was made of steel, so it was not easily pierced.
However, I decided to put an end to this opportunity and used fusion magic as an aura.
Sizzle.
Black flames bloomed and Galakshur entered, melting the right flank of the golem I was in charge of.
‘It’s a joke.’
There was nothing at hand.
And the golem’s resistance also increased.
Kang!
“Keugh!”
One of the members attacked the heart, but it bounced off while blocking the golem’s swinging arm.
Fortunately, Vincent, who was assisting from behind, was not pushed off the cliff with proper protection magic.
I confirmed that I was running out of time and tossed the potion I had taken out beforehand into the pierced side to break it.
Kwajik.
Pushey.
With a corrosive smell, the golem’s body began to transform.
“Now step back!”
It was dangerous to stay any longer.
The crew listened to my order and left their seats, and at the same time I stepped back.
At just the right time, the golem rose from its seat.
“No playback!”
One member of the crew shouted.
The reason why the boss on the 10th floor was difficult was due to several factors, but regeneration accounted for a large part. The Iron Golem, which regenerates endlessly unless the magic core is broken, originally had to regenerate the pierced side, but the potion I used made it harden as it was.
Thanks to this, the golem’s movements were somewhat unnatural.
“Six minutes.”
The time when the location of the magical power core changed again.
All in all, it’s when it’s in your head.
“Hold on for one minute and go in.”
You couldn’t aim for the head when the golem was standing.
After that, like a game of tag, each of them pulled aggro to buy time.
Still, it was easy to buy time because all seven of them were still alive.
‘The potion also played a part.’
As the wound on his side did not heal, his movements slowed down.
Thanks to that, we safely passed the 1st minute and reached the 7th squad.
“Left leg right arm!”
It was relatively easy to target the legs, so the crew nicked the legs with groups.
No matter how much the body was made of steel, the aura-filled blows gradually began to penetrate inside.
Caang!
“uh?”
One of the members tapped his leg and raised a questioning voice.
Then he shouted at me, who was pulling aggro with bright eyes.
“Your leg is right! There is a magic core in your leg!”
“Let’s all attack together.”
I could have attacked the legs, but someone had to pull the golem’s aggro. If another member of the group draws aggro, they can become rats in an instant, so they decided to entrust the magic core to the members of the group.
bang! visor!
Thanks to Vincent who uses magic properly from behind, I was able to pass the dizzying moment.
In particular, the occasional movement to throw it off a cliff was blocked by Vincent’s land or wind magic.
Kwajik!
“uh!”
With a huge explosion, light suddenly exploded from the golem’s legs.
“Get down!”
Even though I had told you in advance, I shouted at the members of the group who were standing in a daze, as if they had no time to think. Then everyone hurriedly fell flat on the floor.
Quaaaaaa!
A huge windstorm raged along with the dazzling light, pushing the body away.
Soon after, the light disappeared and when I slowly opened my eyes, the golem was gone and there was a staircase going up.
“Huh?”
“I hope this….”
“Are you awake? Nonsense.”
The members of the crew, who had been muttering as if they couldn’t believe it even though they had done it, soon looked back at each other and smiled brightly.
“Wow!”
“You did it! We did it!”
“Has anyone dropped out? How could this be?”
“We will be the first! Everyone on the 10th floor will survive!”
As everyone was getting excited,
I turned my gaze to the screen-sharing magic that was filming us.
‘I’m sorry Diene, but I’ll take the win of the bet.’
