Chapter 81 - Transcendentalist Event (2)

It was Hydra's miasma breath that seemed to pour down, but Seo-jun did not stay still.

When he first took the transcendental mock test, Seo-joon hadn't even completed a single lecture.

But now, he had completed the lectures of Chiron and Xiang Yu, and was also listening to Jang Sam-bong's footsteps lecture and Heracles' lecture.

Unlike the time when Fafnir couldn't do anything, a lot of things have changed for Seo-jun now.

“Suck!”

As Seo-joon expanded his senses, he could clearly feel the pouring poison breath.

Because of that, the eerie energy was further amplified, but Seo-joon calmed down and moved quickly.

Pak Pak!

Then, along with the mysterious foot ingenuity, Seo-joon's new model disappeared in an instant.

It was the ‘Cheonsangje (天上梯) - Neunggongheodo (凌空虛道)' learned from none other than Jang Sam-bong.

In the orientation lecture, Jang Sam-bong defined it as a way to remove restrictions in the air.

However, the footsteps that Seo-joon actually listened to and learned were not simply to remove restrictions in the air.

To borrow Jang Sam-bong's words, unlike other steps, it was a step that pursued the extremes of fantasy and pleasure.

In a word, it is said that it is an ever-changing, yet fast-paced walking method...

Even Seo-joon did not fully understand the concept.

Pak Papak!

Seo-joon repeated the phrase he learned from Jang Sam-bong and practiced his steps.

The footsteps were confused and led Seo-jun's new model.

Aaaaaaaaaaa!!

Seojun was able to avoid the first and second miasma breath.

< Oh my God!! >

Then the mentor who was watching him shouted in surprise.

Then, with her eyes wide open, she looked at Seo-joon and muttered.

< When did you learn how to walk like that? It hasn't been long since I recommended it...? >

At the same time, the mentor showed an expression of disbelief.

However, Seo-joon had no time to worry about such a mentor.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

As soon as he was able to dodge the second poison breath, the third poison breath rushed in.

Seo-joon moved the new model while repeating Jang Sam-bong's footwork again.

Papababak!

In that way, Seo-jun was able to safely avoid the third and fourth breaths.

There are 5 breaths left.

Seojun continued to move his body.

However, it was not possible to completely avoid all poisonous breaths with the footwork that had not yet been completed.

In the end, Seo-joon's shoulder was grazed by the poisonous breath that followed.

A direct hit would have ended the situation.

Fortunately, it was only a brush, so there was no big crowd

...

“Keah!”

Suddenly, a pain arose in my shoulder, as if thousands of insects were scratching my body.

And the pain began to spread throughout the body in an instant.

It felt like my whole body was rotting away and I was in pain.

“Keep it off...! Oops!”

Seo-joon could do nothing but scream.

So little time passed.

< Step 1 failed. >

< Remaining time: 28 minutes 47 seconds. >

It was only after the notification of the failure finally came that Seo-joon was freed from the terrible pain.

“Huh...! Huh...!”

Seojun let out a rough breath.

Now, in Seo-joon's head, discounts, scores, and nabbals, and nothing came to mind.

< Are you in a lot of pain? >

Then the mentor asked anxiously.

However, Seo-joon was able to answer the question only after a long time had passed.

“No, what…”

< Hydra venom hurts quite a bit, right? >

Pretty?

Seo-joon was dumbfounded at the mentor's words as if it was nothing.

It wasn't quite sore, I thought I was going to die... No, I just wanted to die.

To be honest, I wished someone would kill me to feel the pain.

< Hydra is a magic beast that belongs to the upper ranks when it comes to poison and is probably quite sick. >

As Mentor said, the hydra is a demonic beast from Greek and Roman mythology that possesses deadly venom that even the gods fear.

Seriously, when Chiron was poisoned by hydra poison, he couldn't overcome the pain and begged me to kill him because he didn't need anything like immortality.

“......It was worth begging.”

Seo-jun could fully understand Chiron's feelings.

belt ring.

< Jang Sam-Bong lecture progress rate 21.8% (+2.1%) >

At that moment, the progress rate of Jang Sam-Bong lecture went up along with the smartphone notification sound.

It seemed that he had gained considerable training while avoiding the hydra's poisonous breath.

Along with the Hercules lecture, the Jang Sam-bong lecture belongs to the beginner class.

It seemed that the progress of the lecture was going up, probably because it was still in the beginning.

In this way, it had the effect of killing two birds with one stone, being able to do causal discounts and training at the same time.

< Are you going to try again? >

< There are 10 chances left. >

However, Seo-joon couldn't press the retry button.

Seo-joon asked his mentor, just in case.

“Can't we just stop here...?”

Then the mentor shrugged and replied.

< It doesn't matter if you quit. But I don't know if it meets the score. >

Damn it.

Seojun muttered to himself.

Every time I failed, my hands trembled at the thought of having to endure the pain.

However, Seo-jun finally pressed the retry button.

Hold on.

-Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

Hearing the hydra's roar again, Seojun picked up Gungnir, not Longinus's spear, this time.

This subject was, after all, a ‘combat ability' subject.

In the end, it was necessary to damage the hydra, but the score was measured high.

Originally, I was going to do damage after dodging all the breaths.

However, having just realized from experience that this was impossible, he changed his strategy.

Seojun took advantage of the time when the hydra was fully summoned to come to Gungnir and squeezed the power of the blade.

I thought about using my divine power, but as of now, I can only use it twice if I overdo it once.

There were still many opportunities left, so for now, I only put the power of the Aura Blade.

Spaaaaaaaaa!

Soon, a vivid blue aura formed on Gungnir.

-Kyaaaaaaaaaa!

And soon after, Hydra was also fully summoned.

Seojun threw Gungnir at the leftmost head of the hydra's nine heads.

and.

Fuhuaaaaaaaaa!

The head of the hydra pierced by Gungnir exploded helplessly.

“Good!”

Definitely Gungnir was Gungnir.

In this case, all you had to do was evade the breath, retrieve Gungnir, and snipe their heads one by one.

And if you do it that way, you might be able to catch a hydra.

Excitedly, Seo-joon took steps to retrieve Gungnir.

Right then.

gurg gurg!

Suddenly, a strange sound came from the hydra.

To be precise, it was heard from the exploded head, but sure enough, the head was regenerating.

“......What?”

Want something for a while.

The blown out head regenerated in an instant.

-Kyaaaaaaaa!!

And ‘Are you the one who dared to blow my head!' The regenerated head let out a fierce roar at Seo-joon.

“……What do you mean?”

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

< Stage 1 failed. >

< Remaining time: 29 minutes 41 seconds. >

“Wow!”

Seojun had to roll around like that for a long time.

“What crazy! What can I do with this...!”

After calming down to some extent, Seo-joon was able to recognize the situation.

In this case, there is a high possibility that you will not get the score you are aiming for.

That's also the case, because the 4.2 points he got while playing Fafnir was the score he got by inserting the Spear of Longinus into Fafnir's body once.

I didn't know exactly how the score was measured, but if ‘effective hit' was the criterion, it was quite ambiguous.

When you think about how to do this.

< If you are having a hard time, you can refer to the commentary lecture, >

the mentor said.

“Oh right. There was an explanation lecture.”

Seo-joon regained his temperament at the words of his mentor.

Come to think of it, Fafnir also attacked with the tips he learned from Siegfried's lectures.

Perhaps Hydra's strategy is also in the commentary lecture.

Seo-joon went straight into the commentary lecture.

Hold on.

[Hydra is a dragon after all. (Instructor: Siegfried)]

[The head of immortality in the middle should be cooked with fire to taste. (Instructor: Hercules)]

[If you know it, Hydra is no different from Orochi. (Instructor: Susanoo)]

.

.

As expected, there were commentary lectures by several instructors.

And it was Hercules who killed the Hydra in mythology.

Hercules would be familiar with the characteristics of the hydra.

Seo-joon pressed Hercules' commentary lecture.

< Oh true. But do you know that if you watch the commentary lecture, your score will be reduced? >

No, I tried to press it.

Suddenly, Seo-jun's fingers hardened like a stone statue.

Even when he first took the transcendental mock test, Seo-joon's purpose was the progress of the lecture.

That's why I could have given away points, but not now.

Now it's a situation where you have to get a high score somehow.

“......shit.”

I couldn't listen to the commentary lecture.

< If you look at the commentary lecture, there is a strategy. Even if the score is reduced, you can get a high score based on that... Haha, the choice is up to Kim Seo-joon ! I don't know if it's because of my mood, but I also felt like I was doing that on purpose. Seo-jun finally folded his trembling fingers after a long thought. And I pressed the retry button, not the commentary lecture. Hold on. -Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! Hydra's roar that erupts without fail. < Hwa.E.Ting! go for it! Woori Team! Go ahead! >

At the same time, the mentor shouted, “Cheer up.”

But was that cheering or snickering...

More than anything, it was even more questionable who the hell our team was pointing to.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

< Step 1 failed. >

< Remaining time: 28 minutes 32 seconds. >

.

.

.

< The first subject (combat power) test has all been completed. >

< The next subject test will be held in 3 days. >

< Score measuring... >

After exhausting all 10 opportunities, the test ended.

“please please...!”

And while the score was being measured, Seo-joon put his hands together and prayed earnestly.

After a while, the score came out.

< Member Kim Seo-joon's combat power subject score is [8.8 points] >

“Yes!”

Seojun shouted with joy.

The previous score was 4.2, so it has risen by 4.6 points.

It was not possible to measure the growth simply by score, but if we had to compare it, it was more than twice as much growth.

In addition, the target score was 3 points per subject, so it was an increase of 1.6 points.

< Wow... Seojun Kim. How come you seem to be a different person every time you see it? >

Sure enough, the mentor also opened his eyes wide in amazement.

< Like footsteps, the last thing you used was divine power, right? when is that again... If you look at the real growth rate, you're the most overwhelming of all the students I've been in charge of? The students in charge of the mentors were transcendentalists or those close to them anyway. It wasn't easy to hear that I wasn't falling behind in comparison to them. < Of course, the level is the most disastrous. >

“...I wish I hadn't said the last thing.”

< Haha! But it's true! >

Seo-joon shook his head at the mentor's energetic reply.

The Hunter's world and the transcendent world were literally different worlds.

In any case, the situation in which the target of 3 points was achieved in the first subject.

“Let’s just go like this.”

Seojun had no doubt that he would soon be able to listen to Jecheon Daeseong's lecture.

but.

Things did not go as expected.

< Second Subject (Basic Physical Fitness) >

< Time limit: 1 hour >

-Then, please wait until I bring you the golden apple.

Woooooooooooooooo!!!

“Keep it off...! Such crazy...!!”

< Seojun Kim's basic physical fitness subject score is [5.9 points (+2.2)] >

.

.

< The third subject. (Improvise) >

-I... closed my first eye... opened my second eye...

“How many eyes do you have...?”

< Seojun Kim's score for the subject is [4.2 points (+1.9)] >

.

.

< The 4th subject (Mana) >

< The Arch Lich is not damaged by any attack. >

< Time limit: 10 minutes. >

-Success in the face of inevitability...

Suuuuuuu...?

< Step 1 failed. >

< Remaining time: 9 minutes 58 seconds. >

-Is this all...

“Haha... I haven't taken the mana lecture yet.”

< Seojun Kim's Mana subject score is [1.6 points (+0.4)] >

.

.

That's how I finished the 4th subject.

‘Joe's gone...!'

Seo-joon felt his heart sink.

The difficulty level of the mock exam was crazy compared to last time.

Besides, I couldn't even listen to the commentary lecture, so I couldn't do anything.

Of course, because Seo-joon had grown up, he was able to raise his score.

However, it was not the 3 points per subject that I was aiming for.

The total score so far is 9.1 points.

It was 11.2 points short of the target of 20.3 points.

Now, there were 3 subjects left, so in order to raise 11.2 points, it was safe to raise approximately 4 points per subject.

However, considering the level of difficulty... I couldn't be sure that it was possible.

I couldn't even guarantee 14.5 points, 50%, let alone 70%, 20.3.

Seo-joon said to his mentor with a feeling of wanting to.

“Mentor. If the grade improvement rate does not exceed 50%, can I not get the discount itself?”

< Yes. You have to pass 50% to receive the event benefits. >

‘I really screwed up...!'

It was a situation where only 1 billion won, which was the fee for the mock exam, was blown.

The fifth subject started like that.

< Fifth subject (mental) >

< Time limit: 30 minutes. >

“Wo, I need to get a score here...!”

Seo-joon woke up.

If you didn't get a score here, you had to see that Jecheon Daesung's lecture was actually going to go over the water.

-I don't want to disappoint you this time...

uh uh uh uh...

Along with the words of the Arch Lich, a sound as if the soul was rotting and rubbing resonated in my ears.

Others would have literally rotted their souls, but Seo-joon was not affected much.

< Stage 1 Success! >

“Whoa!”

As in the last mock exam, I was able to pass the first stage without difficulty.

But this was just the beginning.

Since they failed in the second stage, the key to winning is how long they can endure.

Seo-joon took deep breaths and took control of his mentality.

And the second stage started soon.

< Time limit: 1 hour. >

-You are with me now.

At that moment, an unknown voice flowed into Seo-jun's ear.

At the same time, Seo-jun's body did not move as if it was bound by something.

-You can't escape me forever...

An unidentified voice that continues to be heard.

however.

“What is he saying now?”

Seo-joon shook off his possession with just one word.

- What what?! It can't be like this...?

< Step 2 Success! >

Step 2 ended in vain.

Step 3 started right away.

With the beginning of stage 3, a woman wearing a thin sheer fabric shimmered in front of Seo-jun's eyes.

The white neckline and the hair gently flowing down it.

Is this the kind of beauty that cannot be found in the world?

She was literally the goddess of beauty.

In addition, just looking at how thin the cloth was, barely visible, made me feel dizzy.

but.

“Aren’t you cold, ma’am?”

To Seo-joon, she just looked like an ordinary lady.

< Stage 3 Success! >

After passing the 3rd stage without too much difficulty, the mentor was very embarrassed and shouted.

< Eh?! What what is it? >

“Well...? Can you just stand it?”

< Ah no, what is this... >

The 4 steps continued like that.

< Time limit: 30 minutes. >

-Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! help me!!

- It's because of you!! you killed us!!

It was as if hundreds of millions of demonic spirits gathered together and shouted.

Murderous intent and malice. Hatred and madness.

All the negative emotions were lumped and poured into Seo-joon.

A fatal instinct ate into Seo-jun's mind.

and.

“Is this tolerable?”

Seojun tilted his head and murmured.
