Arena, Alien hunting

Eventually, I received 100 million francs and decided to treat her for 14 days.

Odin has offered to pay for the flame of life, although he doesn't know if it will heal her spirit.

In fact, I gave a discount for the Nordic Trials considering my relationship with them as well.

The price is almost half what McLean paid him.

Moreover, although the treatment period was only 14 days, he decided to give two sparks a day.

The frequency of Marie's seizures has decreased considerably since she ate the flames.

As I increased my vitality, I seemed to have calmed down mentally.

But there was one side effect.

“Hehe.”

Marie stuck right next to me.

She glanced at the white face and blonde hair, but I didn't think she would fall next to me with a real smile.

You're a 23rd veteran, right? ’

I couldn't forget the knife skills of chopping up steak in an instant.

And then I threw a fork at Odin for being nervous. Ordinary people were as good as dead.

I stayed in the headquarters of the Nordic Trials and trained in an artificial muscle suit.

It was to familiarize myself with the power of artificial muscles, but the best training was a struggle.

I asked Odin for a duel, and he pointed to the Marie right next to me.

“If you fight with your bare hands without a weapon, Marie will be a better match than me. ”

Then I looked at this crazy woman smiling like an idiot.

Marie has my eyes wide open and blue.

I asked.

“Do you want to fight me? ”

“Yes.”

Marie nods.

“Then wear the same suit as Marie. ”

I gave her one of the 11 man-made muscle suits I had put in the processing time. But…….

“Ouch! What are you doing! ”

She was just throwing her t-shirt and pants off!

Mary tilts her head in her underwear when I say something.

She wears an artificial muscle suit. I did something that made me uncomfortable while I was in my mouth or even took off my brassiere.

I was embarrassed and looked at Odin.

Odin sighs and shakes his head.

“Let's fight.”

Mary jumps up and down in a suit. It was instantly adapted to the power amplified by artificial muscles.

I hesitated facing her.

The user's fist is hard to reach, considering the opposing Pokémon's touch.

By the way,

Pa!

Marie pounces on you.

I hurriedly dodged to the left as I flew in and kicked.

Then she swiftly kicked me in the chest with her opposite foot.

Phew!

I protected it with my arms, but I pushed back a few steps.

But I couldn't see her.

Later, I realized she had reached under my feet, flat on the floor.

As a result, I was busy preventing or avoiding them all the time.

She assaulted me, skillfully moving up and down, as well as back and forth.

However, I avoided the Elves because I was playing a game with them.

It turned out that the duel itself was really like a game changer.

“It's fun.”

Marie was a delightful face. He ran hard to get a good shot at me for avoiding cooking well.

I was exhausted and exhausted even though I was a level 5 Stamina Calibration, I asked her if she seemed fine.

“Do you have any stamina corrections? ”

“Advanced Lv. 2. ”

“As expected……. ”

Even though it looked tasty, it was a veteran who was tested about 4 times more than me.

* * *

Cha Ji-hye and I spent the rest of our break in Denmark.

The Nordic Trials were a safe place, with great training facilities to prepare for the next one.

The Nordic Tribunal's researchers have completed communication devices in the meantime.

Research book Wilhelm shows up with Odin holding a communication device.

“This is a radio transmitter. ”

“Like this?"

There were 3 small boxes of 20 cm wide, 14 cm long and 7 cm high.

“Press this red switch to transmit high-output radio waves that range roughly 1,850 gigabytes. ”

Odin explained.

“Installing it in the brown mountain nettle villages and in Wolfenburg territory. And install the other one where you need to go. ”

“Is it a voice call? ”

“Voice calls, texting. We can use this to communicate. ”

This time, I gave him a transmission that looked like an old folder phone. There were 15 transponders in total.

“What do you think? Can you store it all at the time? ”

“Let me put it in. ”

I've put all the transmitters and transmitters into the processing.

Luckily, they all went in.

“I put it all in, but I don't think I can keep my food separate. ”

“Don't worry about it. If you visit my territory, I'll make sure you have plenty of supplies. ”

“Yes, please do that. ”

After all the preparations, the seventh exam came.

There was a lot going on in between.

After 14 days of treatment, Marie was emotionally at rest.

Marie Johanna was originally a woman who chose suicide as a result of her failed injuries and was originally mentally vulnerable.

As she was cursed with a psychic curse, she was more likely to suffer the aftermath than others.

I didn't expect my mental age to regress after my treatment and my mind and body stabilized, but it will get better.

But that's not what I wanted to ask her.

“Who did you curse? ”

In my question, Marie said with an angry face.

“One guy did it for miles. I killed him instead. ”

“Was it the Black Wizard?”

“Yes.”

“Killing the Black Wizard was a test? ”

“Yes.”

Marie gives you a big nod.

‘It's the Black Wizard Society. ’

As a 23rd veteran, I believe she is somewhat close to the final objective of the test.

If the 23rd trial was to assassinate the Black Wizard, the ultimate purpose of the test was to be deeply related to the Black Wizard group.

Anyway, it was only a matter of taking the seventh test.

* * *

“Then I beg your pardon. ”

“Yes, I'll see you in the arena. Cheer up, Cha Ji-hye. ”

“Yes.”

We entered a room reserved for the examiners taking the exam.

After banishing Marie who was trying to come in with me, I locked the visit.

The room was decorated like a regular studio.

It was much better than the Korean Arena Institute, which was like a high school.

‘It's been a long time. ’

After resting for 100 days, the test felt like a really long time.

But I didn't feel much tension.

Rather, I am excited.

‘I've prepared a lot. ’

Mad Destructive Object Sniper Rifle AW50F.

An artificial muscle suit with 20 times the strength.

Radio transceivers and transmitters.

I also packed my smartphone, a touch pen, and a solar charger.

When I sent Sylph on patrol, I was going to have him take a picture on my smartphone.

I brought a separate pair of touchpens for an untouchable silk.

Since he taught me how to handle smartphones, Silf used it well.

I also took a good picture, and I ran the sketch app to draw with a touch pen. I was surprised at my painting skills.

‘I should have Sylph draw a map every time I scout. ’

Since the processing time has reached Intermediate Level 1, it becomes convenient to store electronic equipment.

I waited for the seventh test with anticipated emotions.

I closed my eyes when the break was over.

When I open my eyes again, what I see is a dull white world.

“It's time for the test you've been waiting for! ”

The baby angel welcomed me flying around like a sparrow.

“Hey.”

“Why?”

“You look so calm. ”

The baby angel smiled widely.

“What the hell are you talking about? ”

“I see. Seeing that shit coming out of my mouth, I think I'm in pretty good shape. ”

“Well, that's encouraging. ”

“But let me ask you something. ”

“I don't want to.”

“ ……. ”

Oh, I'm pissed.

The blood pressure rises and the blood vessels in my forehead will twitch.

“You know Marie Johanna? ”

“I know, but I'm not in charge. ”

“She fought the Black Wizard 23 times. ”

“But?”

“Why did I fight the Black Wizard group after 23 times? ”

“I don't know.”

“If you're all thinking about how fast I'm going to grow, what do you want from me? ”

“I hope you finish the test. Are you asking the obvious? ”

“No, the flames of life, the processing time, and the conditions I was given were too good. ”

I continued.

“If it's all part of the rule of law, I think you want something more from me. ”

The baby angel laughed.

“All the answers are at the end of the road. You don't have to start wondering what you're going to find out when you walk down that road, do you? ”

“So is he. ”

Shit.

The baby angel flicks his fingers.

The door of the test appeared.

“Go check it out. You walk and you get answers. ”

“Come.”

I opened the door to the test. The bright light flooded the entire field of view white.

* * *

Brown Mountains.

I opened my eyes to the great tree of life in Netherwood Village.

You see the young elves playing around in a hustle and bustle.

Above it, adult male elves play hide-and-seek in battle.

The elves who confirmed the effectiveness of the sneaking drill in the last war against the undead were more eager than ever before.

‘Let's start with the suit. ’

I went to the hideous place and wore a man-made muscle suit.

Stable to fit all the way to your fingertips. I felt empowered already.

“Summon Lithograph. ”

A slate appeared.

Name: Hyunho Kim

Class: 21

Karma: 0

Mission: Kill one or more corrupt investigators.

Time limit: unlimited

I felt like I was being hit in the back.

Of course I thought we were going to have a test to track down the Black Wizard horde! ’

Corrupt tester!

It meant giving up exam completion and fighting those who mattered to making money, just like Chinese researchers.

‘Why is this test……. ’

At that moment, I realized the intention of this test.

This was not just to punish those who had failed their original duties.

Corrupt investigators who are into money have been deliberately interfering with the completion of other investigators' tests in order to ensure continued independence.

Kill those who interfere with the final objective of the test.

"We had to bump into each other one day, but it's too much, right? ’

Now you're fighting a bunch of degenerate test subjects who are mostly veterans for the seventh time.

Corrupt investigators stopped where to look.

‘You should ask Odin. Maybe he knows something. ’

Possibly corrupt investigators were building ‘workshops’ to secure stable land.

Just like the Lycans built the Human Ranch.

‘First, let's install a radio transmitter. ’

You'd better install it at the highest level.

I decided to put one on the Tree of Life.

I jumped hard.

My body soared into the sky with the power of man-made muscles.
