Arena, Alien hunting

Odin ran out first, and so did I.

“The Wind's Blessing! ”

With the blessing of the wind, every time I walked on the ground, the wind gusted from my feet and my body soared.

I jumped the lid and followed Odin closely.

“Khhh!”

“Ahhhh!”

A herd of zombies spots us and then rushes in.

“I'll break through in no time. ”

“Yes!”

“Go ahead.”

Odin lunges at the horde of zombies.

A big swing of the longsword knocks a zombie's head off.

Odin shrugs and pushes the herd all over his body.

“Ugh!”

“Khhh!”

A dozen zombies fall behind Odin.

The artificial muscle suit pushed me with 20 times more muscle strength.

Odin continues to bash the zombie's torso with his sword.

A zombie hit by an amplified blade flies back. She is tangled with three or four other zombies and collapses like a domino.

So Odin pushes forward to clear the path, and I shoot at the zombies from both sides with a pistol.

Ta-ang

A single bullet drops a rope through the heads of five or six zombies. Powers up by mastering ammunition correction skills.

I like it.

I was so excited by the power of the incredibly enhanced handgun that I shot it everywhere.

A swarm of zombies hovers around you, making you a good shot wherever you go.

Cha Ji-hye only deals with zombies approaching calmly from the rear. Of course, it was not unusual to cut the throat clean in a punch with a hyperbole.

Suddenly, we break through the zombie pack's perimeter.

“If we get too close too soon, he could run away.... Let's just clear the zombies out of here. ”

We nod in favor of Odin's offer.

John Ormento was Marie's. It was her test, and she had to deal with it herself.

We continue to spend our time defeating the zombies.

Is John O'Mentor alert, too?

New hordes of zombies flock in from different directions.

But no matter how many zombies there are, I'm not afraid.

We continue to slaughter the zombies.

However, there are more than a hundred zombies gathering around you, so you can't see the end.

"It's annoying. Should we do it all at once?" ’

There was a way to do genocide with less force.

“Casa!”

Woof!

Casa shows up and wags her tail fiercely.

“Light it up. ”

Woof!

Casa lights the tree.

“Burn everywhere, surrounding the zombies! ”

Woof!

Casa flew away.

There's black smoke rising from everywhere.

The fire on the tree moved to the next tree and expanded exponentially.

“There's going to be a big fire, and we'll avoid it. ”

“Let's do that.”

We run through the zombie pack.

I wonder how long it took.

A vigorous flame stands between us.

Casa, clear the way!

Woof!

Casa pushes on, and the wall of fire splits to the sides. We passed through there.

After escaping the flames, we watched the mountains burn.

A swift wildfire draws a huge circle, igniting hundreds of zombies within.

‘Simple.’

We continue to roam the mountains, killing tribes that find zombies.

How long has it been?

Suddenly, my transmitter vibrated.

Turns out it was a transmission from Marie.

“Marie? ”

Hehe, hi, Hyunho.

“Yes, how did it go with John Ormento? ”

I killed him.

“Is that so?"

Yeah, the exam's out. I have to go right away.

“Yes, we'll finish up and follow you. ”

Go back and see, Hyunho.

The call went down.

Apparently, Marie appeared as soon as she finished the test.

The test was to kill a senior Black Wizard of five or more circles, so the test was terminated as soon as John Ormento was killed.

On the other hand, Nana Odin had a choice.

I take the exam of killing one or more corrupt investigators. In other words, it is possible to kill more people, so that the test will not end immediately.

So is Odin.

He asked you to investigate a group of Black Mages who raided the Brown Mountains. You've achieved enough clearance requirements now, but you can investigate more than that.

“Cha Ji-hye's test is all that's left now. Let's settle this right here. ”

Odin takes his ID out of his arms and gives it to Cha Ji-hye.

Odin bites his finger and drops the blood on his ID.

“Repeat.”

Cha Ji-hye also bled and was buried on his ID.

“I, Earl Odin of Wolfenburg, present the title of Baron to Cristina Cha. ”

‘Cristina Tea’ was a new identity created by Danish authorities for Cha Ji-hye who was killed in Korea.

Later, her name was engraved on the identity card and even the title of Baron the Baron was written in the letter of Arena.

Pa!

Then the door of the test appeared.

“I also completed the test. ”

It was a moment when Cha Ji-hye's test was completed for knighthood, recognised by the lord.

“Do you mind if we pass through the door of this test? ”

I was curious and asked.

It was because the door of the test was a passageway for wisdom.

I wondered what would happen if another investigator passed.

“It doesn't matter. If you haven't completed the test, you can pass. Let's all go together. ”

“Yes.”

Once they handed me the man-made muscle suit and the transmitter. If it's not in my processing time, the electronic device breaks down when I pass the test door.

Marie probably hid them nearby, too.

Cha Ji-hye opened the door to the test and entered first. After that, Odin and I passed.

I was overwhelmed by a group of bright lights, and my vision was all white.

* * *

A white world with empty skies and empty earth. You see the white horizon unfolding endlessly.

And I was surprised to see Cha Ji-hye beside me.

“Ji-hye? ”

“Kim Hyun-ho. ”

Cha Ji-hye welcomed me without much shock.

“How did you get here? Is it because you passed the same test? ”

“There is no Mr. Odin. ”

“Oh, right. ”

“It's assumed that we've become a team. ”

It was then.

“Yes!”

A little angel who looks like a baby coming down from the sky.

“Hey, you two finally reached your goal! You wanted to be recognized as a team, acting together in the arena. ”

“I didn't expect this to happen so soon. ”

“I thought it would be a good idea for you two to be a team. You should be thankful for your special convenience. ”

“Thank you.”

“That's enough to know. ”

You son of a bitch.

I want to fix that sarcastic tone somehow. If it were my son, I'd spank you like crazy.

“How old do you have a son that size? ”

I laughed at whether the baby angel had read my thoughts.

‘Ugh.'

Stabbed, I decided to keep my mouth shut.

“Summon Lithograph. ”

Cha Ji-hye summoned the Lithograph to make sure he didn't want to be a part of our conversation.

Then I also summoned the Lithograph to check the test results.

Name: Hyunho Kim

Class: 33

Karma: +31,000

Mission: rest until the next test.

Time limit: 100 days

For a moment I doubted my eyes.

Class 21 through 33 skipped eleven flights of stairs.

17,900 karma was popped to 31,000 karma.

“Hey, what's this? ”

“What is it? Are you eye-catching? ”

“ ……. ”

That's a lot of climbing, isn't it?

Was killing six corrupt investigators that great?

Karma was frightened that the class jumped from 21 to 33.

“A class is an indicator of an investigator's competence. After the sixth time, you've gotten really strong during your break, right? ”

“Oh, is that what happened? ”

“Yes.”

You killed two corrupt Chinese investigators and acquired Karma. He also bought Karma with money.

It makes sense if it has been applied to the strengthened part.

“Come on, if you know, go. ”

The baby angel summons the door of the test and gestures like a fly chase.

Cha Ji-hye opened the door to the test. I also followed with great accomplishments.

The seventh trial was concluded.

* * *

Reality.

I returned to the headquarters of the Nordic Trials and reunited with everyone.

“Did you get a lot of karma? ”

Odin nods satisfactorily in my question.

“Thanks to you, I got a high score for finding out about the 'High Priest of the Six'. ”

“Me too!"

Marie jumps up and down my back.

“Likewise."

Cha Ji-hye simply pushed back.

It's been a long time since we've had a proper meal and discussed the trends of the next test.

“I will probably return to Earl Wolpenburg on my next exam. We can't keep our families and lands empty for long. ”

Common sense was a reasonable guess.

If not, Earl Wolpenburg was confused as he had just been at war.

In those days, Odin, the ruler, would have been a mess if he had stayed empty long enough.

“Since I've investigated the Black Wizard organization on this test, my next test will be a widespread announcement. It's a natural flow in context. ”

Odin was amazed at Cha Ji-hye's opinion.

“I see. A test worthy of my position and reputation. If I spread the word, it would spread across the entire continent. ”

Odin was Lord of the United States and famous throughout the continent.

If he mentions the existence and purpose of the Black Wizard organization, it will spread throughout the continent.

All nations have come to look out for the Black Wizards.

That alone imposes great constraints on the behavior of that organization. They can't go public.

“Since I killed a corrupt examiner on this exam, perhaps in the next exam I will fight the corrupt examiner and the pirates who are in league with him. ”

“I see. They were dressed like pirates at Port Depot. ”

“It is speculated that pirates have become desperate, and that it is thanks to the joining of corrupt Chinese investigators. ”

I nodded at Cha Ji-hye's words.

“I think we'll be fighting pirates on our next test. ”

“Careful. You might run into Rychang if you don't get it right. Six people are dead, so the Chinese will be pretty upset.“ ”

Well, I can't help it.

Since you tried to kidnap me, you've already crossed the river that can't go back to the Chinese side.

But now I was confident even if I fought Lichang.

We have the means to fight back.

One is a well-proven objective sniper rifle AW50F, powered by ammunition correction.

The other was 31,000 karma.

With this level of karma, my main skill, Necromancy, is the best I can do!

Greater Aesthetics!

That's what Derek showed you!
