◈ Episode 43 You ruined everything (1)
‘Snow of the Forest’, the venue for the third match of the inter-school competition, is a labyrinth.
However, the reason why Valhalla uses the snow of the Great Forest as a stadium for school competitions and as a final exam site for first-year students is because the snow of the Great Forest is safer than the one called the Labyrinth.
Basically, once you enter a labyrinth, you are trapped in a maze so complex that you cannot escape.
No matter how strong your force is, it is useless.
A labyrinth requires brains to solve and escape the labyrinth rather than force, so no matter how strong you are, you cannot escape the labyrinth.
However, the snow in the great forest was very poor for a labyrinth.
First of all, unlike other dungeon-type labyrinths, Daesurim’s Eye was not a complex maze within the labyrinth, but was simply a huge forest where it rained all year round.
Second, the monsters that appeared in the forest were all level E monsters, which were not very dangerous.
In short, it was said that it was not that dangerous for the students from the three academies who participated in this competition.
Of course, because monsters still exist, dangerous situations could arise.
Because there is no such thing as 100%.
And here comes the reason why ‘Snow in the Great Forest’ was used as a testing location.
The third reason to use the snow in the boreal forest as a testing site.
This was because, unlike other labyrinths, the snow of the Great Forest did not block external magical power.
In most other labyrinths, external magic is blocked the moment you enter it.
In short, the moment I entered the labyrinth, the situation inside could not be communicated to anyone from the outside.
But what about the snow in the forest?
Although it was clearly a labyrinth, Daesulim’s eyes were very unique and, unlike other labyrinths, were not blocked from the outside.
And the fact that there will be no external blocking means that people from outside can see inside the labyrinth, which means that they can respond quickly when an emergency situation arises.
And such an environment was perfect for making ‘Snow in the Great Forest’ a test site for students.
Except for the fact that it was easy to find the way, that it was blocked from the outside, and that the level of monsters was a little low, the Snow in the Great Forest clearly had the conditions of a labyrinth excellently.
Therefore, 20 minutes ago, the students entered the dungeon to survive for 10 hours in the final event of the competition, ‘Snow of the Forest’.
20 minutes later.
“hey! Everyone stick together and clean it up quickly!”
Lee Sang-cheol gritted his teeth as he looked at the vomit piled up at the entrance to the labyrinth and the shattered dungeon entrance.
“f*ck!”
Harsh swear words burst from his mouth.
If this had been an accident, Lee Sang-cheol would not have reacted so strongly.
The reason why he reacted so strongly was that the collapse of the entrance to the labyrinth was not an accident, but someone’s act.
How do you know that?
“All five contractors guarding the entrance to the labyrinth were found dead… … !”
The contractors guarding the entrance to the labyrinth all died before the entrance was blocked by this explosion.
If so, it was obvious who would do this.
“You evil bastards… … !”
Rover Jack next to him spoke with a frown, and Lee Sang-cheol’s expression became distorted like that of a demon.
‘I let my guard down… … !’
Lee Sang-cheol honestly never thought that a villain would target such a big competition.
Because there was no advantage for evildoers to gain by targeting such a large competition.
No, in some ways, there were good things about evil people.
If they could take advantage of such a large competition, the villains could instantly increase their fame.
No matter how anonymous the villains are, the moment they do something or assassinate someone in a big competition like this, their fame will rise instantly.
However, as you can increase your fame all at once, there will definitely be a side effect, which is that you will have more enemies.
‘these guys… … ‘What on earth are you thinking?’
The school competition is held with the five students with the best grades selected from the three academies in the world.
And although it cannot be said that all of the students occupying the top rankings are the children of families that are currently doing well in the industry.
In short, from the moment the evildoers attacked the students, they turned the families of the students currently taking the exam into enemies.
‘Why on earth?’
Lee Sang-cheol shook his head as he tried to think about why the evildoers were targeting this competition.
‘Let’s start processing it right now.’
Since it happened anyway, it didn’t matter why the evildoers did what they did.
What is most important is the safety of students.
“What is the current internal situation?”
In response to Lee Sang-cheol’s question, the official next to him, who was looking at the blocked labyrinth with a bewildered expression, opened his mouth.
“Due to the recent explosion, all the drones and CCTV installed inside the forest were rendered ineffective… … ! I don’t know what extra measures were used, but there was also a location tracker installed for the students’ safety… … !”
“… … “How long will it take to clear this debris?”
“By any estimate, it’s more than an hour. I don’t know if it’s just rubble, but the entrance is completely blocked by silt… … .”
Lee Sang-cheol frowned at the official’s words.
‘one hour… … Just hold on for an hour… … !’
I muttered that while looking at the blocked entrance.

Shoot!
From the moment you enter the entrance to the labyrinth, the snow of the Great Forest does not fall in one place, but falls individually on everyone who enters the entrance.
Therefore, when Kim Joo-hyuk entered the labyrinth, there was nothing around him, but he actually liked it.
[Find the weapon and memories.]
[Valhalla Constellation Room, 3rd basement floor, fifth room on the right] [Conditions met]
[Madegaia Rona’s House in the Snowy Forest of Valhalla] [Caution※ Conditions can only be satisfied if you have a village sword]

That’s because it would be much easier to find Madegaia Rona’s house if there was no one around.
‘They say there are drones floating in the sky.’
Kim Joo-hyuk thought about those words and thought for a moment as he looked at the sky with heavy rain.
‘Well, it’s not like I can’t do anything.’
Kim Joo-hyuk soon shrugged his shoulders, turned off his attention to the invisible drones, and began moving in earnest to find Madegueira Rona’s house.
… … I started moving.
“… … “I’m going to turn around.”
Kim Joo-hyuk frowned and thought as he looked at the heavily raining sky and the large forest beneath it.
‘Damn, how on earth do I find a house here?’
I looked at the notification window to see if there was any hint, but there wasn’t even a hint.
There are only words written in plain text telling you to find Madegaia Rona’s house.
‘Hey Barce, don’t you know anything?’
[Is it possible that I know anything?]
‘He’s really f*cking incompetent.’
[…] … .]
From experience, when Kim Joo-hyuk’s voice was full of irritation, Barce decided that it was better not to start an argument, so he kept his mouth shut.
That’s because he knew that if he said something for no reason and suffered from Kim Joo-hyuk’s abusive language for a few days, he would be the only one who would be unhappy.
“It’s going to spin, really.”
When Kim Joo-hyuk realized that there was no answer from Barce, he scratched his head in frustration and started moving his body continuously.
It’s been 30 minutes since Kim Joo-hyuk had fun running around the inside of the labyrinth.
“… … “What is that again?”
Kim Joo-hyuk found Logan Jr. inside the forest.
Of course, he is not close to Logan Jr.
No, to be more precise, Kim Joo-hyuk thought of Logan Jr. as a ‘cheap bastard.’
That’s because when Kim Joo-hyuk held his first solo exhibition, Logan Jr. fearlessly provoked him.
However, the reason he stopped instead of passing Logan Jr. was precisely because of the situation that was happening to him.
‘What the hell.’
Logan Jr., as seen by Kim Joo-hyuk, was currently in danger of death.
He was covered in muddy water all over his body, but red blood was oozing out here and there, and more than anything, he was pinned to the ground and surrounded by three figures who were spewing out black magic mercilessly.
And just by seeing that black magic, Kim Joo-hyuk knew that they were evil people.
‘Why are they here?’
That’s what Kim Joo-hyuk thinks about.
“… … !”
An anxious thought soon passed by and I landed straight towards where Logan Jr. was.
“huh?”
Attention is focused on him.
“Kim Joo-hyuk… … !!”
Logan Jr., who had his eyes closed with an expression as if he had given up on life, looked at Kim Joo-hyuk and was surprised.
“uh? “Look at this?”
“Are you coming back on your own?”
The man who was holding a dagger to Logan Jr.’s face just a moment ago and the woman next to him smile and open their mouths.
and,
Ugh-!
As soon as Kim Joo-hyuk landed, the woman who was waving her fingers around without saying a word finished doing something, and a semicircular sphere appeared around Kim Joo-hyuk and them.
“Oh my”
“I guess I can’t run away now?”
The two men and women chatted excitedly among themselves even though Kim Joo-hyuk didn’t say a single word.
They were Samsal (三殺) who came to assassinate Kim Joo-hyuk.
“ah… … .”
Just like him, Logan Jr. closes his eyes tightly and sheds a pitiful tear, as if hope has disappeared.
Kim Joo-hyuk felt dumbfounded for a moment at the sight of them playing drums and playing drums with him as an audience member, but he soon got to the point.
“hey. “Did you sneak in?”
A word from Kim Joo-hyuk.
In fact, Kim Joo-hyuk did not come down here to save Logan Jr.
Of course, it’s pathetic to see Logan Jr. right now, but Kim Joo-hyuk saw him like that countless times 300 years ago.
Besides, I didn’t really want to save this cheap guy.
So why did Kim Joo-hyuk come here?
“Please answer quickly, did you sneak in?”
It was just to ask that of the wicked.
At least for Kim Joo-hyuk, how the villains got in was very important.
No, it wasn’t just important, it was very, very, very important.
Right now, he hasn’t found the house of ‘Madegaia Rona’ yet.
If the evildoers in front of you sneak in, that’s fine.
Because the exam will not be stopped.
If that were the case, Kim Joo-hyuk had the intention of sending the evil people in front of him away in good health.
“Oh, are you really waiting for support? “Don’t worry about that.”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s face, which had been frozen at the woman’s words, brightens.
But after that.
“It would probably take us an hour at best to clean it all out using our abilities. So you don’t have to worry.”
At the sound of Lisa’s voice.
“under… … .”
Kim Joo-hyuk laughed as if it was absurd.
The next moment.
Tsk-!
“!!”
At the same time, Kim Joo-hyuk’s appearance disappeared in an instant.
“You guys really fell behind.”
Baaaaaaaa!
The three villains flew through the sky.
