Admission is a waste of time (155)
Lesson 31. The last spoonful is the most annoying – 5
Most of the important concepts for building a machine gun were obtained from this exploration.
Armor (a higher concept created by combining machine and shell), magic circuit, and magic core.
These three are combined with the characteristics of each beetle to enable them to rotate, accelerate, display incredible strength, jump high, or shoot magic bullets.
‘If it’s just copying the shape, there’s no reason to worry. But I don’t necessarily plan on taking the shape of an insect. Maybe a tank?’
Ban Yu-won had long been thinking of creating a powerful machine army by applying the fixed concepts he had been collecting here.
However, the number was set at five.
If the number of followers increases too much, it becomes difficult to grow them evenly.
In particular, since the deeper the life and soul, the more difficult it is to grow, it is never a good choice to blindly increase the number of followers.
“First, divide the parts by purpose, and then give them a fair base concept to strengthen them.”
The concept that serves as the basis for all machine units is 500 armor, 500 horsepower circuits, and 500 magic cores.
In addition, from the giants that were obtained in large quantities in the first solo exploration, only the sub-concept of huge was extracted and given a fair value of 100 each.
The concept of people left after pulling out the giant… I was a little curious about what the results would be if I used this to create a retinue, but I gave up because I was a little scared.
“Shishishit.”
“… … You want this?”
“Sishit.”
Eve’s request cannot be refused, but something… …is it my imagination that I can see the ending?
When Ban Yu-won obediently handed it over, Eve swallowed it whole and tightened her hold on Ban Yu-won’s arm as a sign of affection.
“Anyway, okay, next.”
Likewise, during my first solo exploration, while dealing with the frost giants, I accumulated a lot of fixed concepts about ice.
The concept of a fixed pure attribute is something I’ve never really gotten from fighting many enemies so far, so I’ve been meaning to use it someday.
Ban Yu-won gave it to a single machine mass along with the concept of a shield, which was also a concept of a weapon that he had been piling up.
“When it comes to ice attributes, it’s defense. From now on, you will be our tank.”
Here, as a final touch, we put the soul fragments of the half-human being separated by life, resonance, and mixed flame.
[The power of mutation is manifested, and the concept held by the target is combined into a higher concept. The depth of mutation has become 40.]
[You have created the ‘Frost Fortress’, a top-tier artifact that grows on its own beyond the realm of simple machines. The depth of life, sanity, and soul increases by 5 each.]
“oh…….”
It even came up with a really cool name!
To be honest, I felt like he just threw in the ingredients and relied on his own power to slap things together… Was it because of the mutation? Or was it because of his imagination?
It was born as a sleek, streamlined armored vehicle that even modern Earthlings would think was a cool tank!
“I can’t see the shield?”
“This thing itself is a shield. You can trust it because it will be very strong.”
Ban Yu-won confirmed the concept of the Frost Fortress’s body with shining eyes.
Frost Fortress [Armored Giant 600, Life 500, Soul 100, Ice Magic 500, Iron Wall 500]
“Armored giant.”
There are other concepts that have been transformed by the mutation, but this one stands out the most.
Ban Yu-won was convinced that all the machine servants he would create would be armored giants, and indeed, they turned out to be so.
“Ohhhhh… … !”
“It’s magnificent!”
Light and Ruchel couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration as they looked at the five armored giants, each with their own unique characteristics, before their eyes.
On the other hand, Dokgo Yeon had a somewhat suspicious expression.
“When I put them all together, they look pretty good. But are these enough?”
“Because there was a limit to the materials. I decided that it would be better to create five strong guys rather than mass-produce mediocre guys.”
“I agree with that decision.”
“And I also plan to give these guys additional concepts that I gained while breaking through the remaining rooms.”
“I depend on you from start to finish, so I guess I have to trust you and leave it to you now.”
A giant warrior with a shield concept, the Frost Fortress.
A giant soldier with a huge sword that rotates violently like a drill, powered by the power of a power source, the Hell Auger.
The strongest artillery piece, the Bungcheon cannon, was created by combining all the cannons and bullets.
Gwangjo, a giant flying soldier with mechanical wings.
A three-dimensional mobile giant soldier, Black Wolf, who runs on all fours and has sharp mechanical claws, as if he were a personification of Ruchel.
“And when these five combine――!”
“coalescence?”
“No, it’s nothing.”
As long as Dokgoyeon believed his excuse (which was true) that he had divided it into five parts to preserve functionality, he could not reveal his true intentions that he had made it simply for the sake of romance.
“Shishit… … .”
“Eve, shh.”
Eve, who understood his power better than anyone else, was looking at him with narrowed snake eyes, but he wanted to believe that it was not his fault at all.
“Ban, so are we going to Room 91 right now?”
Because I spent quite a bit of time carefully creating it while thinking about the harmony of the concept, two days have already passed since I entered the tower.
Even though he understood that Light was showing signs of impatience, Ban Yu-won firmly shook his head.
“No, that can’t be. I have to teach these guys basic combat skills… … .”
“You should practice too, right?”
“Yeah, well. That’s right.”
Ban Yu-won responds to Dokgo Yeon’s words with a bitter smile.
When we check the concept of the body, we can see that his physical concept is still at 7.
“You’re saying it won’t decrease?”

It’s almost here, but maybe that’s why it’s not getting any shorter, which is really annoying.
The transition of the physical concept, the growth of the manifestation, and the perfection of the Origin Sword.
It felt like everyone was unable to take even one step forward.
His passion for creating machine-like creatures was partly a desire to escape that burden.
“Originally, I was going to leave it to you to figure it out, but given the circumstances, I don’t think that’s possible.”
At Ban Yu-won’s report, Dokgo Yeon nodded as if he had expected something like that and pulled out his dark-colored short sword and held it in his hand.
“I don’t think there’s any need for long explanations. Let’s do some special training.”
“thank you.”
“If you are truly grateful, then go independent.”
The moment Ban Yu-won unconsciously laughed at Dokgo Yeon’s words, she kicked the ground and quickly rushed towards him!
“If you are pushed to the brink of death, your martial arts skills will inevitably improve!”
“Hey, hey, hey!”
The aura of death blooming from her body.
No, you really use that in Dalian?!
Maybe I’ve discovered that the Armored Giant series has a hidden romanticism of Ban Yu-won… … !
While Ban Yu-won was desperately responding to Dokgo Yeon, Ruchel clapped his hands as if it was a good moment and spoke to Light.
“Then Light, let’s spar too.”
“Yeah… … Huh? Ruchel, you seem a little strange.”
“Whoa, while we’re at it, I’d also like to hear what’s been going on with Yuwon lately… …!”
“Yeah, uh, hey, wait, save me, Ban――!”
* * *
The special training that lasted two whole days has finally ended.
The physical concept that had been stuck at level 7 and not moving was barely lowered to level 3 after a fierce match with Dokgoyeon that was reminiscent of a real battle, and Hyunshin-gong, whose growth had stopped at 225, grew to a whopping level of 235.
However, they came to the conclusion that they would not be able to perfect their martial arts skills if they continued to practice alone, so they decided to move forward.
-Bam! Kwaang! Kwagagagagagak!
“Ohhhhhhh!”
“Special training… … Maybe it wasn’t necessary?”
In Room 91, where they arrived, the group witnessed the might of the armored giant and were astonished.
The Hell Awl, in charge of the breakthrough, charged forward while spinning his greatsword like a drill, and there was no one who could stop him.
The Bungcheon cannon, which was in charge of long-range bombardment, fired explosive shells ceaselessly, scattering the enemy troops in disarray.
There, the guerrillas, Gwangjo and Heukrang, took advantage of their high mobility in the air and on the ground respectively to attack the enemy lines, so the Seori Fortress, which was in charge of defense, had no chance to come forward.
“But Ban, why are all their names so childish?”
“Perhaps the old emotions that I referenced while making this song were mixed in a little bit… … .”
Even without that, Ban Yu-won was also shrinking.
While Gwangjo and Heukrang have a neat and smart feel thanks to the core ingredients that went into them, the other three seem to be the result of Ban Yu-won’s inability to control his youthful spirit…
“Okay. Let’s call them Fortress, Awl, and Geopo.”
“An abbreviation without any thought or sincerity… … .”
The battle situation was so overwhelming that Ban Yu-won could just be exchanging such pointless jokes with Light.
Even Tike and Eve, who played a decisive role until clearing Room 89, are now somewhat lacking in strength.
“I thought it would be effective, but I didn’t think it would be this effective.”
Dokgo Yeon was also so dumbfounded that he just stood there quietly watching the battlefield.
Because they were created as elites from the beginning, the strength of the machine subordinates is higher than that of their enemies.
Here, the multiplication effect due to the nature of the trick room is added, so the difference in strength naturally becomes greater.
“Can’t we break through all the chain rooms like this?”
“What you just said made it impossible, Light.”
“What do you mean?! Did I do nothing wrong?!”
Light looks back at the group with a resentful expression.
But, for a rare moment, Ruchel and Dokgoyeon nodded their heads in agreement.
“Light, I can’t believe you didn’t know that. It’s still at that level… … .”
“There is a spell in the world that you should never memorize. It’s too bad you haven’t learned it yet.”
Even if Ruchel was like that, Dokgoyeon must have thought it was stupid until last time, but the moment he was able to tease Light, the way he changed his stance like a ghost was truly a work of art.
And what’s with these two?
Why is our breathing so good?
“What, that… … is what Ban told you?! Why didn’t you tell me, you damned thing!”
“No, I didn’t think they’d show off with that… … .”
But apart from that, the spell that Light had memorized was realized amazingly.
At some point, the enemy’s composition changed in an instant.
-Quaqua-kwang! Quaqua-kwang!
-Whoooooooooooo!
As the chain continued, the size of the rooms seemed to increase, and by the time it reached Room 93, a gigantic field measuring tens of meters in height and hundreds of square meters in width had appeared.
And then there are the armoured beetles, with their horns spinning like drills, charging forward, determined to crush it all!
As the hell-awls clashed their horns and swords, it seemed as if the heavens and the earth were shaking.
“Just bring the tower down, the tower!”
“Ruchel, lightning?!”
“I’m doing it, I’m doing it… … I think their resistance has gotten stronger!”
“I can’t even eat well, damn it… … It’s what it was meant to be.”
It was clear that they had learned about the abilities of Ban Yu-won, as well as Ruchel.
Realizing that shell attacks were practically ineffective, the proportion of artillery was reduced and the proportion of assault troops was overwhelmingly increased.
Moreover, as a countermeasure against the flying hawks, an armored spider appears that hangs from the very high ceiling and shoots metal spider webs at the hawks!
Ban Yu-won had to attach four raindrops to Gwangjo.
“Huh, huhhhhhh!”
“Tsk… Where did all those things that were left unfinished come from!”
“Don’t kill them all, you have to leave one last one!”
“I know!”
The group, who had been resting comfortably until Room 92, began to move busily as if their butts were on fire, subduing the enemies.
In the end, even with the full force of Tike and Eve, it took several hours to barely subdue the beetles.
-I could have stepped forward.
While Ban Yu-won was pulling out the metal web of the armored stake and wrapping it around the body of the last armored beetle, Celon spoke to him.
Perhaps because he was partially freed from the seal, the guy was treating him much more friendly.
‘It’s true that you’re the trump card, but that’s why we have to be more careful. They’re learning. If possible, I want to hold out until Room 94 with our own strength and get your help in Room 95.’
– I see. Then, can you give me a few magic nukes? I have something I want to prepare in advance.
‘okay.’
Although I had given as many concepts and parts as I could to the five machine servants, there was a limit to how much they could absorb, so a considerable amount of magical cores were rolling around on the floor.
‘hmm.’
But after I lowered my head to pick up the magic nucleus, I saw something.
In rooms 84 and 85, the floor was clearly dirt, but there were traces of civilization mixed in, such as iron plates and wires.
‘If this continues like this… … .’
Ban Yu-won tried to run an electric current there.
Of course, since metal is a conductor, electricity easily passes through it.
It would be nice if he could use this to attack his enemies.
But what if it’s the opposite…?
‘… … We need a solution for this.’
And then we arrived at room 94.
Before they knew it, the Rebellion party was located in the middle of the machine empire.
