Episode 181 Midterm Random Defense (3)
Beep-
[1st Grade, Group 69! The four students from Group 69 in Year 1, please come up to the stadium now!]
It was the turn of the group to which Bikir belonged.
The triplets of the Baskervilles led the way, and Vikir followed at the back, carrying their trifles.
“Hive bro, fighting! You’re handsome!”
“Baskerville is the best!”
“Show the charisma of the trident!”
Hivero, Middlebro, and Lowbro were very popular both inside and outside the academy.
Powerful skills, noble lineage, tall stature, wide shoulders, decent faces, and even the singularity of having triplets.
It’s only natural that he has all the conditions to be a star.
In addition to the female students from the academy, there were many fans who came to watch from outside.
Even the colosseo academy and the Varangian Themiscyra Women’s University, which leads to the four major academies of the empire, came to see the triplets of the Baskervilles.
Meanwhile.
“Be strong, Bikir!”
“Here we are!”
“Brother fighting!”
There were also those who supported Bikir. Tudor Sancho Piggy Sinclair and Bianca.
At Dolores’ recommendation that it is good for the first graders to form groups with the same division by dividing cold weapons donations and fever donations as much as possible, they are now in separate groups.
Tudor Sancho Piggy Bianca became Team 108 of the Cold Weapons Donation, and Sinclair entered the other group because he was the only Heat Arms Donor.
“Keuheum. Keum! Hey commoner! Be grateful to me for accepting you.”
Next to Sinclair stood Grenouille, her face flushed red.
The two were in the same group at the moment, but Sinclair said it wouldn’t mean much unless he was in the same group as Vikir or Bianca. As soon as I posted the article on the public bulletin board, Grenouille contacted me right away and the group was formed.
So, it is Grenouille who is condescending to such a subject.
well anyway
The triplets of Bikir and the Baskervilles climbed onto an amphitheater one hundred meters in diameter.
In the huge Colosseum surrounding them, countless crowds stomp and cheer as they watch the test taking place in the gymnasium.
It was like watching an ancient gladiator fight.
Tsutsutsutsutsutsu……
Soon the scenery of the arena changes.
Bikir and the triplets’ vision quickly changed to a crypt in a deep abyss.
And soon, countless ‘killing ants’ began to come in droves.
Waaaaaa –
the crowd roars.
To the spectators, it would just look like countless golems crawling like ants around the circular arena, approaching in a clockwise direction.
And Bikir and the triplets must intercept and hunt the ants until they come to the center of the arena.
Phase 1 20 minutes. If you can hold out for just 20 minutes against this huge army of ants, it’s a perfect score.
However, no matter how good the average first grader is, if they last 17 or 18 minutes, they will probably be able to compete for the rankings with only 19 minutes.
“…”
Bikir looked around.
Deep in the nest of killing ants, ‘unclean spawning ground’.
It is a terrifying dungeon that ordinary people will never visit even in their lifetime.
But Bikir had already been here dozens or even hundreds of times.
Not in virtual reality, but in real life.
‘I almost died several times then. Not every day, but every second was a diagonal line.’
Vikir frowned at the past nightmare that slowly bloomed.
Darkness, the smell of a damp grave, wrinkled earthen walls, slime dripping down like a curtain, piles of eggs wriggling from the floor, walls and ceilings, people crawling out of them, swarms of ants
… Although they would be frightened by the appearance of the dungeon.
‘Hoo. Did you do a good job recreating it?’
To Bikir, this place was like a cradle for children to play.
Then Bikir took out his bow and started shooting.
puck! Fuck! puck!
The exoskeleton of the killing ant is hard.
In particular, the head that looks like a shield is an excellent defense tool that bounces off all shocks.
So Bikir was only targeting the ants’ forelimb joints and antennae.
…pop!
An ant with a broken front leg falls to the ground and is crushed to death by ants at the rear.
The dead corpse that is crushed becomes an obstacle that slows the advance of other ants.
Denggung-
Also, ants whose antennae have been cut off will burn walls or ceilings without being able to properly navigate.
Sometimes, while driving in reverse, they disrupted the ranks of the rear.
The ants, whose advance had been slowed down in this way, were being slaughtered by the Baskerville triplets.
Dig!
Sword Expert Advanced. At the age of 19, they reached the top level of expert level, and they began to cut ants while exhaling a red aura like steam between gas and liquid.
puck! Fuck! Perpuck! Quick! Wood deok!
The head of the ants and everything is cut off.
The Baskerville trident began to push the ant colony back.
< Map: Killer ant colony 'Unclean spawning ground' > -Let’s
work together with our colleagues to stop the swarm of killer ants!
Time remaining until the end of phase 1: 14 minutes 58 seconds
1. High Bro Les Baskerville
HP: 91/100
Kill point: 49 points
Assist point: 23 points
2. Middle Bro Les Baskerville
HP: 87/100
Kill point: 45
assist point : 26 points
3. Low Bro Les Baskerville
HP: 86/100
Kill point: 41 points
Assist point: 29 points
4. Vikir
HP: 100/100
Kill point: 2 points
Assist point: 38 points
As time goes on, the points get steadily higher. go up
Hivero, Middlebro, Lowbro were fighting hard on the front line, and their HP was slowly dropping.
On the other hand, Bikir was protected by them and steadily intercepted the ants with arrows from behind. Although he did not stand out because he did not collect many kill points, he was collecting assist points and building up a solid score in his own way.
At the beginning of the game, the crowd, who had been focusing only on the splendid individual performances of the triplets of the Baskervilles, gradually began to pay attention to Bikir, who continued to assist steadily from the back.
“But who is he? Bikir? He doesn’t have a last name, so he must be a commoner.”
“Ah Bikir! That handwriting first place? Was he an archer? I didn’t know. Somehow, he seemed to have a low mana reserve.”
“How do you shoot a bow well? Maybe it’s because you’re an academy student.”
“But didn’t he become a hot topic for a while because he was handsome?
“No, they say taking off your glasses is amazing. Shall I show you? Where did I get the gif?”
Numerous eyes in the crowd lingered on Bikir for a moment, but interest soon faded as Bikir barely moved from the spot and only fired his bow.
Only Tudor Sancho Piggy Sinclair Bianca’s support is steady.
“Cheer up, friend! We are rooting for you!”
“Bikir guy. You’re building an assist stack with sincerity. At this rate, you’ll get a good score.”
“Wow, Bikir’s skill with the bow is amazing! Even if it doesn’t stand out, he’s definitely hindering the progress of the ants!”
“It’s a pity. If hyung and I were in the same group, we would have gotten along really well.”
“What are you talking about? An archer knows the mind of an archer. If he had done it with me, his score would have doubled.”
Whether or not he knows that his friends are cheering him on like this, Bikir is just silently blocking the wave of ants.
Chwiik-Chwik! Hard!
The ants rubbed their exoskeletons, making unpleasant noises, often lifting their tails upward like scorpions and spraying venom.
Chiik –
Light paralysis poison flies a long distance and is shot like a water pistol.
Bikir looked at it and thought.
‘The ants say they put hologram magic on top of the clay doll… but only the poison is real.’
Intro to Golemology, there are many ways to store various items in a golem.
The professors here must have made an ant-shaped golem and put diluted venom sponsored by the Monster Lab into it.
Meanwhile, the Baskerville triplets lowered themselves whenever the ants spewed venom and let them bounce at Bikir.
It was a move as ordered by Bikir in advance.
Chiiik – slap!
A thick poison fog arises. This was a phenomenon that was actually happening in the arena as well.
(Because there is a thick magical wall surrounding the arena, the miasma does not reach the spectators)
There was only one reason why Vikir wanted to be so close to the poison.
[Omnyomnyomnyom……]
Bastard madam.
This guy attached to the wrist of his left hand was sucking up poisonous mist as if possessed.
The level of paralyzing poison emitted by the killing ants would be a perfect meal for this guy’s level.
A guy smaller than the palm of his hand knows where all the poison is piled up, and he eats it well.
‘Spiders eat a lot at once and do not eat anything for a long time, right?’
For the young madam, this place is like a 20-minute all-you-can-eat all-you-can-eat buffet. So I thought it would be better to feed them now.
……yet.
< Map: Killer ant colony 'Unclean spawning ground' > -Let’s
work together with our colleagues to stop the swarm of killer ants!
Time remaining until phase 1 ends: 1 minute 07 seconds
1. High Bro Les Baskerville
HP: 2/100
Kill point: 228 points
Assist point: 80 points
2. Middle Bro Les Baskerville
HP: 1/100
Kill point: 208 points
Assist point : 96 points
3. Low Bro Les Baskerville
HP: 1/100
Kill point: 199 points
Assist point: 102 points
4. Vikir
HP: 47/100
Kill point: 16 points
Assist point: 134 points
Wave time is almost over.
Hivero, Middlebro, Lowbro’s HP became 0 almost at the same time, and they slaughtered countless ants until the very end.
And when these three brothers retired with 0 HP, it was Vikir’s turn.
After the test, the total score is 308 points for Hive, 304 points for Middle Bro, 301 points for Low Bro, and 150 points for Bikir.
The time they endured was 19 minutes and 50 seconds! The end of phase 1 was only 10 seconds away.
Kill points and assist points are all combined for a total of 1063 points. If you convert the 19 minutes and 50 seconds you endured to 1 point per second, you get a total of 1190 points.
Bikir’s group scored a total of 2253 points, which was by far the top of the freshman year.
1st place new record!
The triplets of the Baskervilles came out of the stadium grinning at the cheers that erupted.
Next was Bikir, always expressionless.
When Bikir is about to come out of the arena’s magic wall.
“……?”
Why is my left arm a bit heavy?
When I turned my head, I saw that the young madam was sticking a thin spider web on the floor of the arena and swearing that she would not go out.
It seemed that he wanted to eat more of the remaining poison.
“Can you go in even after eating like that? But no. It’s time to stop.”
[Keeing-groaning-]
“Then you live in the arena. I’m going home.”
[ふふふ……]
“Sueup-”
Bikir said he wouldn’t go, and picked up the struggling bastard and put it in the sleeve of his left hand.
To others, it was just picking up a wristwatch that had fallen on the floor. Eventually, after
leaving the stadium, Bikir’s ears were heard with the crowd’s appraisal
.
Judging by the score, all the triplets from the Baskervilles did it.
” Turns out, the three of Iljin took one of their friends with them~”
“You’re a lucky commoner. How did you get into that group?”
“Well, I guess he was trying to use it as a brain to be number one in writing.”
“But he was good at blocking monsters with his arrows. If it’s 150 points, it’s not a great score, but it’s a good score in the middle.” ”
It was amazing to see him shoot an arrow without using mana the other day. You seem to have the basic skills?”
“Oh, that’s right. i saw it then Wasn’t Bianca from the House of Usher almost at odds?”
“Ah, at odds with Bianca. I lost one point because of my last foot. A one-point difference in archery is huge. It’s almost on a level of division. A difference of two points is a difference in ability that is impossible to compare.”
Next time we’ll try to do the same group.”
“That’s right. I’m from a commoner, but I’m the one with the highest score among the kids who shoot arrows.”
At first, there were many negative reviews saying that he was being carried by the triplets of the Baskerville family, but it was gradually changing to a positive one.
Of course, Vikir himself didn’t care about such evaluations …… There were people who really cared about this.
“Hahaha, I’m proud to see my friend being recognized
.
” It’s not just the hair that gets dirty. I’m happy that everyone seems to have discovered Bikir’s new charm.”
“Hyung, you’re cool. Hehe.”
“……It shoots something. If only the amount of mana was supported, the score would have been higher.”
Tudor Sancho Piggy Sinclair Bianca
.
Team 108, fighting!”
“I can’t lose to Baskerville’s trident.”
“I’ll work hard too! I’ve been analyzing slaughter ants all night!”
“If you keep your distance, I’ll carry you, so don’t come to me.”
It was Tudor Sancho Piggy Bianca who was
in harmony with his lively tone
. Let’s do well too.”
“…”
“What is it, commoners? Are you deaf? Hmmmm Can’t you hear me?”
Group 203, which Grenouille and Sinclair belong to, was also preparing for the exam.
Before long.
Tudor Sancho Piggy Bianca’s group 108 was called.
Beep-
[First year group 108! Four students from first year class 108 Please come up to the stadium now!]
When their turn came, Tudor, Sancho and Piggy Bianca ran towards the stadium excitedly…
And at the same time,
they came to the side of the stadium to watch their friends play. Bikir noticed something strange.
‘……Is something strange?’
I feel uncomfortable. An unexplained feeling of anxiety was overtaking me.
And soon, Bikir found out the identity of that anxiety.
‘Oops!’
He said that his left hand had strangely become lighter since earlier.
Bikir hurriedly looked into the sleeve of his left hand.
There, he saw the young madam sitting in a quiet posture for some reason.
But,
as soon as
Bikir took her hand, the young madam stayed the same. It’s completely torn apart.
What you can get your hands on is just an empty shell.
Yes,
the guy has shed his skin in the meantime.
