Episode 77
Test of prowess (3)
Jeongdo quickly adjusted his posture.
And King Manbyeongji also changed the form of a sword from a spear. There are many limitations to using a long spear or great sword in a forest with dense trees. In fact, with my current level of strength, I could have used a giant weapon to cut down a tree, but in a battle royale, such a loud action was the same as asking for death.
That’s why Jeong Do’s weapon of choice is a rapier. It was a sword used by a martial arts girl named Jegal Hye-mi, who had previously loaded it when saving Sang-hee at Dobong Mountain. He adjusted his posture and pointed his sword at the wolf in front of him. And then suddenly the wolf opened its mouth.
“Hmm. You are a person with good sense. “Most powerful people let down their guard when they see this.”
Clear Korean that can be heard with the right ear. As a result of <Communication>, Jeong-do was able to even understand the wolf’s language. Instead of answering, Jeong Do held his sword tightly.
‘You’re clever.’
Disguises itself as an ordinary animal and knocks down opponents who approach unguardedly. If you listen to what he said, it wasn’t something he had done once or twice. In fact, if it hadn’t been for Ixia’s warning, he would have been stranded. It was a great tactic using stereotypes.
“But this good feeling became poison this time. If it had been bitten just like that, it wouldn’t have taken its life. From now on, expect no mercy from my teeth.”
The wolf growled fiercely at the dog. From the looks of it, he didn’t seem to like that Do-do had avoided his trap.
‘That’s funny.’
Even if I was fooled by a trap even just for a moment, I still felt bad. Know that you will be beaten like a dog. I thought that to myself and lowered my posture a little more.
The two glared at each other.
Taaat!
They rushed towards each other at the same time!
From the beginning, Jeong Do showed off the best skills he could.
Dragon vocab!
It is a skill created by combining Changryongbo and Tiger Bombardment. Jeongdo accelerated explosively and stabbed repeatedly with a rapier stained with strength. A scene unfolded where dozens of thrusts occurred simultaneously at such a fast speed. The giant wolf, Tinia, was frightened by the sight.
“Tsk!”
However, Tinia was also a spirit beast that was revered as a god in the region. Tinia also showed off her skills in an instant.
<Body acceleration>
Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!
Mana flowed through each of Tinia’s muscle fibers. Tinia managed to make a sharp turn before being caught in the sword. However, she was unable to dodge completely and the sword slightly grazed her back.
Chi profit.
And the shallow wound healed in an instant along with white smoke. It was thanks to Tinia’s skill <Transcendence Regeneration>. Tinia, her heart pounding, cried out to her degree.
“human! quite… ”
But those words could not continue to the end. This is because Jeongdo attacked again at high speed, this time stepping on the reinforced Changryongbo. And this time, the weapon in Jeong Do’s hand was not a rapier.
A short spear whose entire hilt is dyed yellow.
Gae Buidhe.
A man called the first spear of the Irish Knights of Fiona.
It was one of the two spears used by Diarmuid O Dinah. A magic spear that prevents wounded enemies from recovering. The extent to which he saw Tinia recovering from her wounds in an instant took out a compatible weapon.
Creepy.
Tinia had an instinctive feeling when she saw Gaybo. She was warned by the wild sense that developed over hundreds of years. You must never pass by that window. Must be avoided or blocked.
And we must go one step further and make that weapon unusable!
Tinia used <Body Acceleration> once again, and at that moment, a spear was fired aimed at Tinia between the eyes.
Wedge!
Kwasik!
A person and an animal moving at an incredible speed raised dust, and after the sound, silence came for a moment. And after a while, as the dust settles, the scenery is revealed.
“Tsk.”
“Krrrrr.”
There was Tinia, glaring at Jeongdo with a yellow spear in her mouth. After using <Body Acceleration> in a stack, Tina A was able to avoid the stab by turning her head just before the spear reached her. And then, she bit Gabo in his mouth and started a contest of strength.
‘Are you really human? What power… !’
Tinia was astonished. The man in front of me was not only fast, but his strength was no less than his speed. He tried to snatch the weapon, but instead he found himself being slowly dragged away. Only then did Tinia admit that the human in front of her was a monster beyond her own imagination.
‘then!’
Destroy the weapon before you are dragged away! Tinia exerted as much grip strength as she could on Gaybo, who was biting.
however.
Crackling.
‘Nonsense!’
Rather, his teeth were grinding down. What kind of being is he? Even the ‘Giant Turtle’, which is said to be hard, breaks apart the moment it bites you. It is ridiculous that the thin steel used by humans can withstand one’s teeth. Tinia suffered a huge blow to her pride.
But this was natural. Although Tinia could never know, the King of All Diseases was a weapon created with the utmost effort of seven Grand Meisters.
King of All Diseases has three effects.
Users can implement weapons that look the way they want.
Increases all abilities by 10.
Lastly, it cannot be damaged by any means.
It was not a concept of robbery.
The 7 dwarves were given the proposition ‘it will not be damaged’ when producing King Panacea. Unless someone greater than them appears, the King of All Diseases will never be harmed. In the end, only Tinia’s poor tooth was ground down.
‘shit!’
Still, as long as he had a weapon in his mouth, the person in front of him had no means of striking him. At best it would be a kick. However, he can withstand that level of damage with his own regenerative power. On the other hand, he had sharp claws even though he had no teeth.
The moment Tinia raises her front paw to attack Jeongdo.
Jeongdo calmly opened his mouth.
“Tempal is also a skill. “Don’t complain too much.”
‘What?!’
Tinia was astonished. The human in front of me said that in wolf language. And Tinia’s perplexity did not end there.
Kwasik.
Tinia bit into the air. The yellow spear she was holding tightly disappeared in an instant.
As explained earlier, the King of All Diseases is a weapon that changes its appearance as the user desires. It is very easy to remove a weapon that has been bitten. Before I knew it, my hands had thick knuckles.

“Hwaap!”
Do-do stepped forward and quickly snuggled into Tina’s side. Tinia is that humans used the language of wolves. And I couldn’t react properly to the embarrassment that the weapon had changed right before my eyes.
“Kyaaaaagh!!!”
A heavy blow was allowed. Tinia was unable to overcome the force of her fist and was thrown back and fell.
“Ugh.”
A burning pain felt in the side. I probably broke a few ribs. If it had been anyone else, it would have been a fatal wound, but not to Tinia. After some time, you will be able to fully recover and stand up again.
“Where!”
The problem was that there was no way the person in front of me would miss that moment. Jeong-do climbed onto Tinia’s back as she was lying down, and Tinia had no choice but to collapse.
Wow.
As he climbed onto Tinia’s back, he wrapped his right arm around Tinia’s large neck and put pressure on her, while at the same time pressing down on her back with his right knee. And in her left hand, she held the panacea that had been transformed into Geibo and thrust it into Tinia’s face.
“You lost, right?”
“… “Kill him.”
Tinia’s struggling body lost strength. Although she is said to have awakened her intellect through many years, she is originally a wolf. Is she the fate of canines? The moment it became clear who was higher in rank, she stopped resisting. And she calmly accepted her impending death.
However, the words that came out of Do-do’s mouth were the opposite of what she had imagined.
“I won’t kill you.”
“… what?”
“After fighting, I understood. You weren’t planning on killing me, were you? “The first surprise attack was aimed at the shoulder, not the neck.”
“… … .”
And even in the battle after the surprise attack, they avoided and attacked vital points. In fact, she was more busy startling, dodging, and getting hit rather than attacking, but her intentions were fully conveyed to Do. Jeongdo said with a grin.
“How could a wild beast come up with such amazing ideas? In that world, is respect for the life of even animals fundamental?”
“… They simply refrain from killing except when looking for food. Life is also a part of nature. “It’s better not to damage it.”
“Know that you are alive thanks to you. “If you had tried for my life, my spear would have blown a hole in your head.”
“joy. I am not afraid of death. but… .”
Tinia hesitated for a moment, but then shook her head and spoke to Do.
“human. So what do you plan to do now? Or rather, how do you know our clan’s language?”
“I can only say that I was born with languages. I don’t know exactly either. “I can just understand and speak naturally.”
“It’s an amazing ability.”
“That’s not important, we need to sort out the situation first. Give me the crystal. If you have floating seats, give them all away.”
“… human. Were you a thief by any chance?”
“It’s cheap compared to the price of life. Give it to me quickly.”
To this extent, if Tinia rebelled, this time he would not show mercy and was even thinking of killing her. Due to the nature of the battle royale, if you save them, they will become enemies one day. Did he sense that kind of feeling? Tinia calmly spit out the Delaf Crystal and three floating stones she had kept in her mouth.
“oh. “Three?”
Jeongdo smiled in satisfaction and took three floating stones. And Crystal said as she handed it to Tinia.
“Okay then, abstain.”
“… “Umm.”
Even if you lose a battle, you can still go out strong. It was definitely luck. That too, very much. If she had been defeated by someone other than Jeong-Do, she would have more likely died. But even though such luck was right in front of her, she hesitated and hesitated.
“… what? “You’re not planning on abstaining, right?”
If you refuse even though I show you mercy… That’s it. Jeongdo was prepared to release the gay treasure he was holding at any time.
But then.
Tinia suddenly made an unexpected suggestion.
“human. Are you interested in cooperating with me? I’ll give up first place to you. “I am satisfied with being ranked.”
“Hmm?”
The unexpected words were a bit harsh.
Although the test took the form of a battle royale, it was not only the first place that raised the level.
Top 8 people.
They were all able to rise in rank. However, the closer you get to first place, the more rewards you receive. That’s a huge reward too. Now, Tinia has said that she will give up additional compensation in exchange for helping Jeong-do. Jeongdo was lost in thought for a moment.
‘It’s not bad.’
animal. If it were a spirit beast, it would have a transcendent sense of smell. It was perfect as a search agent. However, Battle Royale is too much of a game to believe in. Jeong Do spoke with a sharp attitude that was different from his true feelings.
“How can I trust you? “Can’t you betray me at any time?”
And at the same time, I asked Ixia about Tinia’s intentions.
<Master. It doesn’t seem like a lie. She is sincere.>
‘That’s right.’
However, Ixia’s sensitivity is not 100 percent accurate. As the degree became conflicted, Tinia opened her mouth again.
“human. As you said, we didn’t spend long enough to build trust. But if you beat me, there is another way. Place your palm on my forehead.”
“what? “Are you asking me to pet you?”
“… Stop talking nonsense and upload it. “Isn’t this a place where time is important?”
Tinia’s low growl made me somewhat embarrassed, so I raised my hand as I was told. Then a notification window appeared in front of her.
Tiring!
<Skill <Ancient Wolf Hierarchy> has been detected. The other party recognizes you as a superior being and tries to follow you. The other party can never act against the user. Would you like to accept the subject? (Period of obedience – until the end of the test.)>
“Oh oh.”
In this case, the story is different. I can’t resist. Although she said cooperation, she actually meant submission. The word cooperation was her last pride. At some point, she changed her mind and allowed the skill.
Tiring!
<A hierarchy has been established. Guardian of the Forest – Tinia is currently bound by the user Jinjeongdo.>
“Connected safely. human. Please take care of me during the remaining time. “I will try to do whatever you tell me to do.”
“good. “The first order is to stay where you are.”
“… huh?”
Jeongdo said that and rushed towards Tinia. And started stroking it wildly.
“Hehe. This soft touch. “I really wanted to pet it.”
“Ahh! Let go! Let go! “I’m not a dog!”
Jin Jeong-do is 32 years old and single.
He loved dogs so much that he was crazy.
* * * * * *
Jeong Do and Tinia were hiding in the forest near Ye Tosan. Jeong Do explained the plan to Tinia, and Tinia agreed.
“indeed. As you said, understanding the terrain is important. In my opinion, there is a high possibility that other participants will appear on that mountain. So, if they spot participants climbing up there, will they attack them then?”
“It’s similar. It’s a little different. “Let’s just wait and see.”
“Hmm. I get it… No, stay away! “Don’t pet me!”
Jeong Do and Tinia hid for a while and waited in the forest.
“come.”
It finally appeared. A person was captured climbing a mountain. He was a warrior wearing heavy armor all over his body and carrying a large shield. He may have been thinking of hiding himself, but he smeared dirt on his armor to match the color of the mountain, but it was clumsy. It was easy to spot the enemy.
“Are we going to attack that guy now?”
“No, that’s how we show up too. “Then it’s a big deal.”
“So what do you plan on doing? Are you saying we’ll just sit back and watch?”
“that… ”
It was the time when Do-do was trying to explain.
Peeeeeeee!
One arrow was fired secretly and hit accurately on a warrior climbing Mt.
Kaang!
However, the warrior’s armor was so luxurious that it easily deflected arrows. The warrior looked around in surprise, but all around him was forest. He couldn’t easily find the sniper.
However, to the degree that I expected a long-distance attack from somewhere, I accurately captured the direction from which the arrow was coming. Tinia nodded her head.
“indeed. “That’s it.”
“okay. Our target is not the warrior foolishly climbing the mountain. These are long-distance snipers targeting that warrior. “Come on, let’s move.”
Jeong Do and Tinia quickly moved to the spot where the arrow came from.
“found.”
I found a female elf concentrating on being a warrior on a high tree. She was shooting arrows with her face red, as if she was angry that they failed to pierce her warrior’s armor. Jeongdo spoke privately to Tinia.
‘Overpower in an instant at top speed.’
‘I get it.’
Jeongdo took a moment to catch his breath and kept an eye on the elf. The exact moment when the elf fires an arrow at the warrior!
“now!”
At the most vulnerable moment, two sad beings, second only in terms of speed, attacked the elf like a beam of light.
“Huh?! what!”
The suppression was instantaneous. A blow that strikes at the moment when tension is relieved after an arrow has been fired. The elf was suppressed without even being able to use his hands. Jeongdo said with a mischievous smile.
“ruler. If you give everything you have, I’ll spare your life! “If you don’t like it, it’s wolf food.”
Kwasik!
“Hmph!”
The elf’s complexion turned pale as Tinia bit into the air. She obediently presented the floating stone.
“Okay then, abstain. “There is no option to cooperate.”
“… “So vainly.”
She infused mana with tears in her eyes at the threat(?). The tears of a beautiful woman always aroused male sympathy, but the degree was merciless. Does a beautiful woman feed you food, or at least something like that? To a certain extent, he acted with complete understanding and calculation. When the beauty world didn’t work, she glared at Jeong-do once.
“joy. young.”
With those words, I abstained. She disappeared in an instant.
“… … .”
good night. Let’s kill the next female elf we meet.
Jeongdo collected the floating stone that the elf had left behind, looking like he had chewed shit.
And that day.
Jeongdo and Tinia eliminated four more competitors using the same method.
End of first day of exam.
There are currently 22 surviving participants.
