Chapter 122

Episode 122 Hidden Boss (2)

―I found a hidden layer.

―Special quests are accepted.

―Defeat the hidden boss in the hidden layer and return.

hidden layer.

The purpose of Jaehyun was to reach this place from the beginning.

‘That’s why I got Hwajung in advance.’

‘Hwajeong’ obtained while climbing to the top of the volcano on the 1st floor. This is a hidden piece that improves fire resistance by 300%.

The downside is that the effect only lasts for an hour.

That was enough for Jaehyun.

It took less than 10 minutes to find the hidden path through the narrow side road.

‘Ordinary cadets are not even aware that there is a hidden hierarchy. An impossible attempt without a great sense of magic power and fraudulent items.

But it’s not difficult for me, a regressor.’

Jaehyun was thoroughly familiar with how to clear this dungeon.

Reaching this place itself is not that difficult.

However, others were different.

Just now. The flames rose up on both sides of the side road the group passed through.

In order to pass through it, enormous fire resistance ability is required.

however.

Most new cadets do not yet have resistance-type passive skills.

In general, passive skills are obtained by fighting monsters, but it is very difficult for those who have never entered a dungeon to acquire them.

Gu Jain also calculated this and prepared this hidden piece.

The test was cleverly planned so that other cadets could not reach this place.

‘Guardian. By now you’ll be glued to the TV with your eyes wide open.’

Jaehyun gave a small smile to himself and looked at the camera.

“It’s a hidden class… I think something better is in store here. Right?”

At Jaehyun’s words, chatting with excited viewers immediately followed.

[Anonymous 3: No hahahahahahaha so far has been amazing enough, how did you find this place again?]

[Anonymous 8: I really can’t believe it even when I see it… What the hell is Min Jae-hyun’s identity?]

[Anonymous 91: Yes;; The other kids are still rolling on the second floor, but it’s not enough to catch all the bosses, so what? hidden layer? It’s really crazy;]

[Anonymous 52: There’s going to be another bulletin board haha]

[Anonymous 45: Which guild would you like to take a kid like that from?]

[Anonymous 81: At first glance, Yeonhwa or Wind God would take you. Honestly, with that level, I could pick any guild and go lol]

“Then, let’s find a way to summon the hidden boss.”

“okay.”

The party started to scan the field with the viewers behind.

‘In order to summon the hidden boss, you need an altar and a sacrifice. Of course, I know where they are because I saw them on TV before returning, but…

I need to have an assortment, so let’s pretend to find them.’

Jaehyun nodded slightly and pretended to find the altar with the group.

Fortunately, it didn’t take long before Kim Yoo-jung found the altar and the device.

“Guys! look here! Is there something like a round groove on the altar?”

“uh? Really?”

“The groove that was dug in… It looks familiar somewhere…”

The party looked at Jaehyun after adding a word to each other.

Jaehyun smiled and nodded.

“I think I know what?”

After saying that, Jaehyun also moved toward the home.

An altar in the middle of a spacious common.

There, a groove dug round as if it was woven into something and countless lines derived from it were extending like tree branches.

Jaehyun and Kim Yoojung had the same thoughts almost at the same time.

“ah! I remembered that shape…….”

Jaehyun took out an item before Kim Yoojung finished her words.

The item taken out is the core of the Lava Golem obtained after defeating the boss a while ago.

The lattice pattern engraved on the core of the sphere and the shape of the grooves on the floor matched perfectly.

As if it was created for this purpose in the first place.

“Do you think this is the answer?”

“uh. Otherwise, there’s no way it would have been made so perfectly.”

Kim Yoo-jung agreed with Jae-hyun’s words with a disapproving face. It seems that he wanted to appeal that he had discovered it.

However, Jaehyun didn’t even care.

“Then go.”

after you catch your breath Immediately push the Lava Golem’s core into the small hole in the floor.

The sphere left Jaehyun’s hand and fit into the groove on the floor.

Geehee…….

at the same time.

The sound of magic power being born began to be heard, and a scarlet light began to glow from the core of the golem inserted into the groove.

The light began to diffuse little by little, dyeing the floor of the grid pattern red.

Jaehyun calmly spoke to the group.

“Focus! something comes I feel a very strong magic power.”

“huh!”

“okay!”

Kim Jin-ah and Park Sung-woo answered. Kim Yoo-jung quickly began to apply buffs to the party.

From basic defense magic led by magic armor to speed magic such as wind boost.

‘As expected, it was good that you brought Kim Yoo-jung. As it is specialized in the role of helper, it is highly useful.’

Jaehyun nodded slightly.

just as expected. The audience’s reaction was quite good.

[Anonymous 2: What is that on the floor???? What’s crazy about it?]

[Anonymous 1: Oh, it’s so terrifying. What are you going to jump out of?]

[Anonymous 91: By the way, Kim Yoo-jung is crazy talented. Show situational judgment. It’s a scam from the speed of using skills.]

[Anonymous 46: Ah hahaha he’s the strongest in the world from the beginning hahahaha]

[Anonymous 82: I think we’ll be able to see a more proper battle this time?]

[Anonymous 96: It was a bit disappointing earlier haha ]

Deeded…….

The ground shuddered again, and soon an ear-piercing roar began to pour out.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…!

The earth’s axis is broken and a gap opens. The mana, which was so thick that one’s feet were hollow, began to spread slowly beneath the ground.

The party was careful not to fall to the floor by calmly turning around their magical powers.

Jaehyun lifted his head and looked straight ahead. A faint smile spread across his lips.

It starts now.

The final chapter of this exam.

Jaehyun gathered all the mana in his body and shouted at his colleagues.

“Everybody back off!”

at the same time.

―Red Drake, the hidden boss of subspace, appears.

―Survive with all your teammates to defeat enemies and obtain Drake’s Heart.

―Special benefits are given upon clearing.

The golem’s core enlarged, and wings soon sprouted from it.

Then the sphere constantly changed its shape like a fabled butterfly.

Its characteristic huge body covered with red scales and a wildly torn mouth.

He couldn’t become a dragon due to his low intelligence, but he is unmistakably a dragon.

red drake.

It was a B+-class monster, much stronger than the Lava Golem I had just dealt with.

A monster that constantly regenerates, so there is a limit to the damage it can inflict no matter how strong the attack is.

‘The downside is that he has low intelligence and can’t use magic, but…’

Even so, even professional raiders are difficult to deal with unless they are top-tier.

At most, it’s definitely not a monster that will appear in the cadet’s exam.

[Anonymous 1: What?? Did you put it in to catch it?]

[Anonymous 81: This is fucking ridiculous. That’s an A-class magic beast. It’s a B+ grade because it can’t use magic, so it’s not a difficulty that new cadets can catch? Gu Jain, what did you really think when you made that?]

[Anonymous 71: Management is really like a dog. There is no basic concept. It’s noisy, but you’re not aware of it?]

[Anonymous 4: No matter how you look at it, this was an irrational number. Who designed the subspace?]

Viewers’ opinion was also very bad. A flood of negative reactions.

It was exactly what Jaehyun intended.

‘Huh…… Drake is the opposite of me. I’m at a disadvantage. but.’

He was obviously a tough opponent for Jaehyun.

The skills Jaehyun can destroy with absolute arithmetic are limited to magic.

It is impervious to physical attacks.

However, Jaehyun wasn’t worried at all.

Jaehyun took a deep breath, distributing the magic he had raised.

Red Drake was threatening the party by swinging a rough claw once.

at that time.

“Drake in a place like this!”

Kim Jin-ah’s awkward conversation broke out somewhere.

Park Seong-woo’s screaming voice followed.

“Damn me! What is going on?!”

“…….”

Kim Yu-jung looked at the two with a tired expression, then shook her head.

‘Terrible acting skills… that’s for sure. They’re the ones who cheated on their parents when they were in middle school and never took pocket money from them.’

No matter how you look at it, it was a gloomy acting skill.

‘Ehh.’

After Kim Yoo-jung sighed, she herself began to participate in acting.

“Guys! Step back!”

Jaehyun was a bit impressed by Kim Yoojung’s acting, which unexpectedly had a stable tone.

‘You have talent in an unexpected place…….’

FYI.

The reason why they are acting so clumsily now is simple.

‘Shall I start soon too?’

Jaehyun smiled and used the magic he spread to intervene again in the subspace.

After a while.

―The subspace connection is unstable.

―Red Drake is running out of control!

* * *

[Anonymous 5: What is this all of a sudden? The connection state of the subspace is unstable?]

[Anonymous 2: Test error popped up? So what do you do? The instructors will take care of it, right?]

[Anonymous 17: Well. Maybe this is a ‘retest’ angle. I feel sorry for them hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha]

[Anonymous 41: Can you shorten it a bit?]

[Anonymous 81: Wiet is the least bitch;;]

[Anonymous 64: But are the kids really okay? Well, since it’s Miles, I’ll take care of myself.]

[Anonymous 86: oops ah hahahahaha I’m worried because it’s ‘Miles’. Haven’t you seen the guild experience event before? There are a few kids who died there, but they sound carefree.]

[Anonymous 1: So… I hope nothing special happens this time.]

[Anonymous 91: Well, this is a subspace anyway, so people won’t die?]

[Anonymous 92: bOf course. Have you seen it before No matter how beaten you are, you won’t bleed.]

[Anonymous 91: Oh, that’s right haha]

The chat went on without a break, but they still don’t know the seriousness of the incident.

but.

‘Someone will notice soon. That something has started.’

Almost simultaneously with the idea of representation.

[Anonymous 2: Hey wait. Guys, I think there is a real problem with the system?]

[Anonymous 5: ??? What is it?]

[Anonymous 2: The HP bar on the top right. It’s gone!]

Those words were the beginning.

The HP bar means the materialization of the remaining physical strength using the barrier vests worn by the cadets.

To put it simply, a device prepared so that viewers can more intuitively see the cadet’s remaining physical strength.

But the HP bar disappears?

This meant an error in Milles Academy’s subspace control system.

In other words.

[Anonymous 68: Kids… you could die!]

It also meant that the subspace’s safety device wasn’t working properly.

The moment the chat window is in chaos.

Aaaaagh!

Red Drake’s smooth claw attack flew towards Kim Jin-ah.

and.

“Get back now!”

Instead, along with Kim Yoo-jung’s voice, the red drake’s claws grazed her abdomen.

After a while.

The chat window became a real mess.

From Kim Yu-jung’s abdomen, which was brushed by her toenails.

Bright red blood started gushing out like a fountain.
