◈ Episode 581 Ancient Curse School (1)
A swirling storm of purple lightning.
What made up the inside of the storm were blades of lightning made of magical energy.
6th tier lightning attribute magic.
[Chamunmanroedo (斬雲萬雷刀)]
True to its name, as many as 10,000 blades of lightning scattered in all directions, cutting up the entire surrounding space.
The ground where the lightning struck burned black, and some steel structures were unable to withstand the heat of the voltage and melted.
The war mages looked like they were going crazy.
“Hold on! “Hold on!”
“Take away everything you have!”
War Mages, who had gathered only their own elites, were equipped with artifacts that could protect their lives in case of unexpected situations.
The War Mages gathered in one place and shook off all their spare life lines.
In addition, he even unleashed the resonance shield magic used by the wizards of the New Magic Tower.
Nevertheless, the shield cracked and blood overflowed from the War Mages’ lips.
‘Hey, you monster!’
The 5th rank wizard bit his lip at the thrill of electricity coming through the shield.
‘It wasn’t magic used to target us in the first place.’
The man wearing the shadow only used the 6th level great magic as a performance to show off to those around him.
If he had decided to use it against this side, such a crude defense would never have been able to withstand it.
If he had decided to use it against this side, such a crude defense would never have been able to withstand it.
Ku-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa.
After the storm of lightning in the shape of a blade subsided, what remained was the E-34 area, which had become a neat vacant lot.
The 5th rank war mage looked around.
Except for himself, all other war mages were defeated.
His life was hanging in the balance, but even that was possible because the other person looked after him.
“Who are you?”
I squeezed my lungs out and asked in a trembling voice, but there was no answer.
I knew he wouldn’t answer since I hid my identity, but wasn’t this too much?
‘Where on earth did such a monster come from?’
A 6th rank wizard is on this island?
A wizard of that caliber would have reported it to the higher-ups as soon as he entered the island.
But he did not receive any news.
So, does this mean that he is a wizard belonging to the same God’s Magic Tower?
‘Could it be an attack by the opposing faction to interfere with our work?’
Although the New Magic Tower is one organization, it is actually divided into several internal factions.
The faction he belonged to pursued extreme efficiency, actively utilizing the current war to make money.
Considering that there were factions criticizing that and saying that we should work for peace on the island, it wasn’t entirely wrong.
‘Report to the top… … .’
The moment the War Mage was about to report with trembling hands, he realized he couldn’t.
All of the artifacts he possessed were shattered by the attack just moments ago.
He gritted his teeth and shouted at the warlocks watching from afar.
“What are you doing! Are you just going to watch like this?”
The warlocks frowned at those words.
What are they telling themselves to do?
Fighting is also about observing the opponent, so fighting someone who is almost like a natural disaster?
That’s not a good thing to say, and the warlocks were offended by the way they treated their subordinates.
However, my pride did not allow me to retreat from here.
Opinions were divided within the warlock.
“Shouldn’t we just attack now?”
“Are you crazy? Didn’t you just see it? “You used level 6 magic twice!”
“If you’ve used it twice, it’s time to lose all your strength. Don’t you know that even a 6th rank wizard can’t use that level of great magic continuously? “I don’t know anything else, but I must have lost all my strength.”
“We also suffered a lot of damage. What if I just leave here? “How funny must those from other districts look at us?”
“So you’re telling me to rush in now? “The war mages over there have all fallen?”
“why. “There’s still someone in charge or something left.”
The warlocks’ worries did not last long.
From a distance, a wizard could be seen flying with his entire body wrapped in magical energy.
Field Director Pomfoot landed in the center of the ruins.
His nervous-looking eyes were directed at Ludger, who had done all this.
It was hard to recognize who it was because they were covered in black shadows, but it was clear that they were the instigators just by looking at the signs of destruction around them.
“You guy. Where do you belong? Did someone else send it?”
Pomfoot asked the question and burst into laughter.
“Well, it’s meaningless to even think about it now. Since you’ve come this far, you’re ready to see the end, right?”
Ludger stared at Pomfoot.
The blue eyes behind the fluttering crow’s beak-shaped mask harbored a feeling of mystery.
Even after seeing this scene, Pomfoot was not afraid, but instead showed confidence.
Is there anything you believe in?
The reason was quickly apparent.
This is because I spotted a black figure flying towards me from afar.

‘what?’
Something flew through the air and landed next to Pomfoot with a violent sound.
It was a very large piece of metal.
The brass-colored cube had magic flowing through circuits engraved on its surface, but at first glance, it was no ordinary object.
It’s definitely my first time seeing it.
The purpose looks somewhat familiar.
As soon as I could think of that, I started hearing a clicking sound from inside the brass colored cube.
At first, it was a simple sound of winding the main spring.
Eventually, the rack was pulled, magical power vibrated, and the sound of steel meeting together spread, and the cube opened wide like a flower blooming, turning into something large.
“Steam golem?”
At first glance, its appearance resembled the brass-colored golem that Brino had created during the previous magic festival.
The only thing that Brino made was a circular sphere, and that was a hexahedron.
The only difference is that it is much larger than the steam golem Brino created.
‘How many at least advanced level magic stones do you use?’
Brinno’s golem used only one magic stone, but that one seemed to have at least five stones.
It is different from a regular steam golem.
The part where the head should be was empty, and there was something resembling a c*ckpit inside.
Pomfoot naturally climbed on top of him.
“her.”
Ludger, realizing what it was for, let out a laugh.
“The wizards on this island really created all sorts of things.”
What Pomfoot wore was a reinforced exoskeleton armor based on a steam golem.
Originally, there was something like reinforced armor made exclusively for anti-knights, but that was on a different level.
If I had to express it, yes.
It should be called a powered suit exclusively for wizards.
“Consider yourself lucky. “Because I witnessed the Magia Giant for the first time.”
Pomfoot lightly raised his large body wearing a reinforced suit that was a combination of the latest in magic engineering.
Compared to his bloated upper body, his lower body was relatively weak, but it didn’t seem to have much of a problem moving around.
Even if it is not a magic stone, the output of a pure machine is not normal.
Just like that. Just like that.
Pomfoot, wearing the Magia Giant, clenched and opened his fists.
The steel hands of the powered suit moved together as if imitating the actions of a real person.
The size of that hand alone was larger than the upper body of an adult.
The moment I was caught by that, the future of being squeezed like a dried rat was clearly pictured.
“It’s still an experimental device, but now that a 6th rank opponent has finally appeared, I should be thankful for this opportunity.”
Pomfoot stared at Ludger, his eyes shining, as if he was happy at the thought of testing the performance of the testing machine.
Ludger looked at Pomfoot in silence and pointed his finger at him.
The first start is a light check.
A quick beam of light flew towards Pomfoot’s exposed head.
First of all, it was an attack where the exposed part was thought to be a weak point, and a magical force field was created in front of Pomfoot’s head, which deflected Ludger’s magic.
“You would have created such a clearly visible weakness!”
Pomfoot spread his arms wide and prepared to lunge at Ludger.
‘Is it coming?’
At that time, Ludger was preparing.
Intense magical energy was sprayed from behind the Magia Giant’s back, and the massive body shot towards Ludger like a cannon.
‘fast.’
Ludger thought like that and disappeared into the shadows.
The Magia Giant swept past Ludger’s location with its huge arms and turned while slightly floating in the air.
It landed lightly on the ground without any problems.
“What kind of magic was that just now?”
Just as Ludger was amazed at the Magia Giant, Pomfoot also frowned at Ludger’s magic.
It was clearly an attack that was difficult to avoid, but he disappeared into his seat.
Earth magic? That’s not it. So is it an illusion? That wasn’t it either.
“You’re using magic I’ve never seen before. Where on earth do you belong? “It’s a very desirable magic.”
Pomput moistened his tongue with his lips.
The damage caused by Ludger’s intervention this time was already severe, and I saw an opportunity to make up for that loss with that magic.
Ludger, in fact, paid no heed to Pomfoot’s reaction and examined the Magia Giant’s condition.
‘You’re rushing at me at a low altitude. Were the legs a decoration?’
Rather than being used for movement, those two legs were just for supporting the body so it wouldn’t fall.
The actual method of movement was to fly with propulsion by spraying the magic power built into the magic stone.
Just by looking at it, you can see that a large figure wearing tons of armor is flying in the sky.
I had no idea how high the alternative output was.
There are only five magic stones visible from the outside, and there was a possibility that there were more hidden inside.
‘It’s not just a lie that it was made to deal with 6th rank wizards.’
Use the power of machines to create weapons that can take on the highest level wizard.
I never would have thought that magic engineering would have developed this far.
Developing a powered suit to deal with wizards?
I felt a strange irony in the fact that it was a wizard who could use it.
I realized once again that Ludger is not a clean organization just because it is a new magic tower.
Still, while watching Lord Loteron, I thought it was a freer and better place than the old magic tower.
‘If it’s a place where people gather, is this how it goes?’
But I couldn’t continue with those comfortable thoughts.
Pomfoot, who was distracted by Ludger’s magic, led the Magia Giant to attack again.
Clap.
The hatches on the Magia Giant’s wide shoulders opened, revealing the high explosive bombs inside.
Open armored hatches on the shoulders and gun barrels protruding from the backs of both hands.
“I’ll sweep it away with high firepower.”
The gun barrel spewed fire, and the special bullets built inside the hatch flew toward Ludger in a tail.
A huge screen that fills the field of view.
The firepower displayed by a single aircraft was incredible.
At this level, it is safe to say that it is almost like an artillery battalion moving separately.
Ludger quietly watched the scene and held out his hand.
“You idiot! “Do you think even a 6th rank can block this level of firepower?”
However, Pomfoot’s confident expression did not last long.
All the special missiles and bullets that were flying straight towards Ludger were bent in the air and fell somewhere far away.
Some missiles even flew as far as the warlock formations watching from afar.
Quagwagwagwang!
Amid the red flames rising from all directions, Pomfoot glared at Ludger.
Even in the center of the battlefield where flames were flying, the shadow surrounding his body still maintained its pitch black color.
“Metal magic?”
Pomfoot realized what kind of magic Ludger had used.
But it’s not just a magic that sculpts metal, it’s that you control the metal you shoot out?
“Could it be that he has the title of color?”
no. If that were the case, there would be no way there would have been this level of destruction.
If you’re a single-attribute wizard, what on earth is that shadow?
The man in front of me is not a single-attribute wizard.
“Wait, what about this?”
Pomfoot noticed fine iron powder fluttering in the air.
“Is that something like that?”
After scattering fine iron powder around, it was attached to the flying special bullet and its direction was completely distorted by that force.
If someone who didn’t know him saw it, he would mistake it for being involved in metal.
Even if it was a trick, Pomfoot couldn’t help but be surprised.
When on earth was such fine iron powder sprinkled around the area?
‘No, is it possible to make such fine iron powder using metal modeling magic in the first place?’
That means that the level of the opponent’s magic control has literally reached its peak.
Pomput felt delicate.
He is a 6th rank mage, but his attitude of not competing with simple firepower made me worry that he might also be a war mage.
‘done. Anyway, now that I’m riding the Magia Giant, I can beat even a 6th rank wizard. If special bullets don’t work, I’ll finish you off with overwhelming magic!’
Magia Giant’s magic stone buzzed and radiated energy violently.
Magical power surging like spring water moved along the Magia Giant’s complex structure and circuit, providing intense energy to the core.
The magic power of the resonating magic stones created a fierce synergy with each other.
Just because the number of magic stones increases by three times does not mean that the output simply triples.
The output of the resonated magic stone increases not as a multiple, but as a square.
5 external spells.
And 3 inside.
The output of the Magia Giant, which uses a total of eight magic stones, is literally beyond common sense.
But Pomfoot overlooked one thing.
In a fight, victory or defeat is not determined simply by the size of the force.
It wasn’t until he noticed the faint fog rising around him that he realized it.
“What is this?”
Pomfoot tried to push away the fog through the Magia Giant’s magic power.
A faint translucent curtain pushed away the sand that Ludger had sprayed.
However, the pure white fog naturally clung to Pomfoot’s face as if it was not affected by it.
“W-what!”
Pomfoot felt his entire body weaken as the fog touched his face.
As if to prove that it was not just an illusion, his skin became dull and wrinkles appeared as if he was aging in an instant.
“Aaaah!”
Ludger quietly stared at Pomfoot, who was screaming and falling down.
This wasn’t the magic he used.
Ludger’s gaze turned towards the direction where the pure white fog appeared.
There was someone standing there, covered in black robes and wearing a mask made of goat bones on his face, holding a staff.
“Are you a warlock from the ancient curse school?”
The crow mask and the goat mask faced each other, staring at each other.
