Chapter 73

The 56th floor of the Ark Guild Building.

In response to Seo Min-jae’s question, Im raised his glasses.

“It’s simple.”

widely-!

When Director Lim cast a finger snap, the colorful landscape on the 56th floor instantly turned into an empty field.

Chief Lim pointed at the large monitor with a shrug.

“The progress is a total of 10 rounds! As you clear each round, more powerful and ferocious monsters appear. The tour student who clears the highest round will be given a chance to meet with the master.”

The rules were simple.

In the big screen, the monsters that appeared in each round were displayed.

It was a method in which 100 different types of monsters appeared every round, and it was largely based on the data of well-known monsters.

Director Lim explained that the live action was very well done.

Farming monsters in a normal environment is a daunting task.

In this place where there was almost no air, it seemed that most of the members would have a hard time clearing even the 5th round.

Min Jun-do, if we recall the contents of the original work a little.

At the time, when Gu Dong-man was a first-year student at Jenix, there was an episode where he often trained at the ‘Air Zone Field’ on the 56th floor, and the round he peaked at was up to the 6th round.

This was like clearing a round that was quite high for a freshman.

“Among us, only those who have cleared the highest round will become, right?”

“Then it’s worth a try!”

“I don’t know about anything else, but I have good lung capacity, so maybe I have the best mental strength here?”

Anyway, only 1 out of 5 people was certain to have an interview with Master Gu Hwang-seok.

However, this opportunity was not easily reduced by the director.

“Oh, there’s something I didn’t tell you. By the way, our young master Gu Dong-man was in the same first grade as you. When you came to the Air Zone Field for the first time, you cleared up to 6 rounds. At least I want you to meet this standard.”

It seems that there is virtually no opportunity.

Guo Dongman was in the 1st year, and he was ranked 3rd in the combat power ranking among all 1st year students.

Unless you are a trainee with a high ranking, it is practically difficult to enter the 5th round of ‘Air Zone Field’.

It was natural for the members to protest against this.

“What kind of guild tour is this?!”

“If Koo is in the 6th round in 1st grade, shouldn’t we just see it as unreasonable?”

“The first and second rounds would do that, but I think the class level goes up from the third round?”

“This is impossible… .”

“You won’t know until you try.”

Of course, not all of the members lost their fighting spirit.

Seo Min-jae showed strong will as he grabbed the long spear.

“I will go first!”

Seo Min-jae looked at Chief Lim with charismatic eyes.

Perhaps he liked Seo Min-jae’s appearance, but Lim readily accepted it.

“I like the spirit. It’s a spirit befitting our guild. If you are ready, let’s begin.”

Manager Lim waved his hand and guided Seo Min-jae to the Air Zone field.

“Then, good luck!”

***

Booung-

“There’s nothing I can’t do.”

Seo Min-jae flamboyantly wields a long spear.

Her resolve seemed extraordinary.

In fact, she wanted to show off her prominence through this guild tour.

Finally, a one-on-one interview with Master Gu Hwang-seok suggested by Director Lim.

She, who had always envied the Ark Guild, also did not want to blow away this good opportunity.

If there is anything that can be shown within the Ark Guild, even just a little bit.

She was willing to show all her skills.

‘You just have to do your best. do your best! Seo Min-jae, let’s do it as usual. As usual.’

Even within the department, he had never shown such a remarkable appearance, battle, or performance.

Seo Min-jae was determined.

Although the part that Gu Dong-man cleared up to 6 rounds in the first year felt a bit threatened.

Whatever.

It was important for her to try anything first.

‘There’s nothing I can’t do.’

“Then, let’s start with the first round!”

Beep-

The monster that appears in the first round is the ‘Red Mantis’.

F-rank hunters were also monsters that could be farmed easily, so they were not difficult opponents.

Of course, since the shape of its forelimbs reminds us of a sharp scythe, we must be careful not to lose our guard and part of our body gets cut off.

Meanwhile, as soon as the round starts.

A large number of red warts appeared on the shutter side in the middle of the field.

oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh-!!

A group of red praying mantises began to rush at Seo Min-jae, who was standing there.

“It’s going to be a storm!”

Seo Min-jae quickly swung his long spear without hesitation.

It seems to be her special skill, but several spear blades were visible in an instant.

Due to her ability to stab at high speed, even the red mantis are often helpless.

All around her, light green bodily fluids spurted out in all directions.

Kuwawaaak-

“ha… ha… … .”

Because the air concentration was extremely low, even a small movement made Seo Min-jae short of breath.

Of course, a certain amount of oxygen capsules were hidden all over the field every round.

It wasn’t easy to find the oxygen capsule while dealing with the monsters that appeared in droves.

per oxygen capsule.

It is said that it is possible to last 5-10 minutes, but it is difficult to block the monster wave, so I had to think carefully about how to break through and attack the round.

Beep-

[Destroyed all monsters in Round 1.]

[We will enter the second round soon.]

“Whoa… Whoa… . You said this went all the way to the 6th round in 1st grade?”

It was only now that Seo Min-jae began to feel it.

It’s a shame because you dealt with the ‘Red Mantis’, which has relatively low physical strength.

If you had a much higher health than that, or if you had dealt with a more violent monster… .

I thought I might have given up first because my breath stopped.

Still, since I quit the start with confidence, I decided to go into the 6th round with all my might.

‘I can’t do it. I need to find an oxygen capsule first and start farming.’

At the same time as the start, if you run out of breath, it doesn’t matter if it’s a monster or something.

Because mental power is disturbed, Seo Min-jae thought that he should secure an oxygen capsule first.

and after that.

I made a decision because it was the best way to defeat the waves of monsters coming in.

Before long, a second monster appeared.

2nd round monster is ‘Lightning Wasp’

As a flying monster, the stripes on its belly reminded me of the shape of a lightning bolt.

“It must be a flying monster!”

Seo Min-jae, who had no confidence in flying monsters, frowned.

That would be too.

Being a melee rush type, she was particularly vulnerable to flying monsters because of her relatively low agility.

Of course, compared to trainees of the same level, the advantage was clear because they boasted overwhelming attack power and combat power.

Physical defense and magic resistance were extremely weak, so I had to be extra careful in this second round.

***

Minjun could not take his eyes off the monitor situation.

It was not only a situation that would soon come upon him, but also to figure out the disposition of different monsters every round.

– One of the guts is a friend who has no choice but to praise. It’s a typical rushing tendency, but how will you solve this round?

‘I’ll overcome it with difficulty.’

-How do you know that?

‘That’s the characteristic of hunters who handle spears! Maybe it’ll end in one shot?’

-… ?

Gram had no way of knowing Min-jun’s intentions.

Until I saw Seo Min-jae’s performance, I couldn’t get a sense of him at all.

just as expected.

Seo Min-jae went into this round in a completely different way from the first round.

Swish- Swish-

Seo Min-jae’s appearance on the monitor was beyond expectations.

Momentarily, they headed for the dome containing the oxygen capsules scattered around, and began to inhale oxygen first.

“Hee-eok- hee-hee-.”

After that, he repeatedly avoided the poison sting and headbutt of the ‘lightning wasp’.

I took small damage in the middle, but the more I did, the more I felt like I was accumulating strength.

Min-Jun saw Seo Min-Jae’s behavior and spoke to Gram insinuatingly.

‘I’m accumulating energy of power. It’s also the biggest characteristic of spearmen.’

-Ohh!

A technique that gathers and accumulates the power of all nerves, and then creates a large, wide-area explosion along with a mana eruption.

This is a passive that mainly spear-handling hunters and trainees have, and there was nothing so useful.

Of course, she was still only a trainee, but it didn’t seem like she would have much difficulty against the ‘lightning wasp’.

Eventually, Seo Min-jae, who spent about 30 minutes in the second round, began to release the strength he had accumulated so far, as Min-jun had predicted.

Paa Awa Oang-

In an instant, the ‘lightning pattern wasps’ that had been floating in the air began to turn into ashes.

Because it is such a broad technology.

There wasn’t even a chance to escape.

However, there is one huge risk with this technology.

that’s right.

‘That I can only write once a day. Maybe Seo Min-jae will be finished in the next round.’

Minjun’s predictions were met in the next round without a doubt.

In fact, Seo Min-jae started to struggle in the third round, which started right away.

It seemed that his movements were much slower than before, but his proprietary stabs were also incessantly directed into the air.

Members who could not see this often covered their eyes.

“It definitely had an impact, but it was overused for that.”

“Minjae is also sorry. This is the limit.”

“Ha ha, I don’t think I can even make it to the third round.”

The crew started to get worried.

Because they thought that they would not be very different from Seo Min-jae.

Eventually, Kim Ki-yong of the Communications Department decided not to even try.

[Battle Impossible! Battle impossible!]

[Participants, please go to the home ground!]

In the end, Seo Min-jae returned to the home ground, which was the starting point, without clearing the 3rd round.

With her already exhausted stamina and difficulty breathing, she hurriedly drank the stamina potion that Director Lim handed to her.

gulp- gulp-

“ha… ha… . I really thought I was going to die.”

You could tell just by looking at the beads of sweat on your forehead how tense the situation was.

Meanwhile.

Director Lim looked at the rest of the crew and asked.

“Who is the next challenger?”

None of the members of the team were quick to respond to Lim’s question.

After checking what Seo Min-jae showed, they also calculated their limits to some extent.

However, between them, Minjun raised his right hand.

“I’ll try.”
