Hidden Sanity at Villain School - Chapter 122
Only Krnovel
(122)
Lee Ho-jun’s plan was simple.
A second-year explorer came running and conveyed a message to everyone using his chlorination ability.
[I’ll grab his attention. The moment he comes down to eat me, Wei Jin will use his earth power to bind him. Then, focus your firepower on his eyes, wings, and ankles.]
The second year knight took the wings, and Sega took the ankles.
Since once you cut either side, you won’t be able to fly or run properly, so at least you can run away.
[Haraim and the second-year bodybuilders should take care of the first-years and go as close to the gate as possible, spread out, and wait. Be careful not to touch the spores. And from now on, make sure to understand the situation inside well. Even if the big hunt is over and some time has passed, does it make sense to let those guys wander around inside the gate?]
Lee Ho-jun reprimanded Ha-ra-im in front of everyone.
‘Shouldn’t that older sister be the one with the most power? This gate was opened thanks to that older sister. … … No. Let’s focus for now. It won’t be too late to think about it after we get out alive.’
Sega has put to rest the questions that keep popping up from time to time.
Now was not the time to be wondering about anything.
[To location.]
Lee Ho-jun announced.
He went out to a clearing with relatively few trees, and the second-year elementalists hid in the swamp around the clearing.
Sega also entered a swamp and was submerged up to his shoulders in water.
The submachine gun was placed out in front of him, and the sword was drawn and held in his hand.
‘eww.’
Thanks to the integrated combat uniform that went all the way to the feet, my body didn’t get wet, but the cold, muddy water of the swamp pressed down on my body.
It was fortunate that the small demons who heard the cockatrice’s roar all ran away or held their breath.
“Kaaaak-!”
The dragon that had been circling in the sky began to descend upon seeing Lee Ho-jun appear in the empty space.
Lee Ho-jun held the super-sharp sword in his trembling hands.
The dragon-type demons were all equally powerful.
Even the lowest-ranked Amphitheatres and Wyverns were famous for flying in groups and ramming and shooting down combat helicopters, and among the Drakes, there were many monsters that could easily withstand fire from five self-propelled guns, and all of those worthy of being called dragons had their own unique names and became ‘Named’.
It’s only because it’s a 40m subadult that it’s challenging us. If it were an adult over 70m, they would have just scattered and tried to survive on their own.
A person’s field of vision is about 180 degrees if they don’t roll their eyeballs separately.
Even explorers who boast a sense of having eyes in the back of their heads can only do so after mobilizing their hearing, smell, sight, and magical perception.
On the other hand, the large eyes of the cockatrice, which are placed side by side, always capture the full 360 degrees.
That alone would be a powerful weapon, but it could fire paralyzing rays from its eyes with a range of 10km.
This beam, which can nullify strong force fields and any shielding less than 3m thick, has claimed the lives of countless Hunters and soldiers in Gate Break situations.
“after.”
So, if you want to attack him, you have to start with his eyes.
* * *
“This is Lee Ho-jun from Shinseoul!”
I didn’t know when the culture of shouting names in a head-on confrontation situation began.
“¦¦¦¦¦-!”
The cockatrice cried out in response and sank to the ground.
Even a Class A demon wouldn’t shoot paralyzing rays just to catch one person.
The wind generated by this giant creature, which was 40 meters long and had a wingspan of 60 meters, was truly tremendous.
Lee Ho-jun gritted his teeth and kicked the ground.
Taat!
Although the salt magic bullet is invisible to visible light, it can be detected by the movement of magical power at the level of a Class A demon.
That is, I had to get close to the guy’s body and shoot him, which could be called the blind spot of the paralysis ray.
This meant getting within striking distance of its massive beak, which could crush armored vehicles like candy, and its tail, which was full of venomous spines.
“Cock!”
The cockatrice swung its tail at Lee Ho-jun.
Sega almost ran out without realizing it, but he gritted his teeth and held back.
If he left now, Lee Ho-jun’s courage, and even his sacrifice, could become meaningless.
Wheaaa …
The barbed tail flew faster than the speed of sound, but Lee Ho-jun dodged it with the movements of a Shin Seoul strongman.
fault.
Then a huge beak fell like thunder, but this time I flew in a zigzag pattern to break through.
Taat!
Lee Ho-jun ran up to the cockatrice’s chest.
The cockatrice opened her beak wide as if she was annoyed and was about to burst into a rage.
“—-!”
If I had been hit at that distance, I would have been in the second grade and would have died instantly.
At that moment, Lee Ho-jun opened his eyes wide and summoned his magical power.
“Park Wi-jin!”
Sega saw magical power swirling around him, creating long, spear-like magic bullets.
Wedge!
Two flame-coated bullets flew into the sky and rushed towards the two eyes.
puck!
One was definitely ruptured, and the second eye was badly gashed and covered in fluid and blood.
“Kaaaaaaah!”
The angry cockatrice flapped her wings, tail, and legs wildly.
At that time, the senior with a rock-like appearance who had been hiding on the complete opposite side of Sega began to raise his magical power in earnest.
“Eww!”
thud!
It seemed as if a huge crater had formed, and then the ground split open.
A giant object measuring 40 meters in height fell into the ground in an instant.
‘I’ve been working on this for a while now!’
It wasn’t at a level where it would drop hundreds of meters underground and kill someone.
But its long neck and deadly beak once lowered below ground.
Lee Ho-jun shouted as he got up from where he had been sitting.
“Shoot!”
“Let’s go!”
“Don’t spare your magic!”
The second-year pyromancer dropped several sun-blazing fireballs into the pit.
Pavabababak-!
The second-year blood magician fired a hail of disintegrating blood flow bullets.
Flash!
The second-year lightning wizard called down lightning from the cloudy sky.
Charrrrrr-!
Park Wi-jin waved his hand and created a steel-like chain out of clay, binding the monster inside the pit.
“Die! Please die!”
A second-year knight ran out from a distance slightly to the right of Sega, and Sega followed suit.
“I am the wings!”
“I remember!”
Now, if they could land a single hit with the sword, it would be a strategic victory for them even if they couldn’t kill him.
Both Park Wi-jin and Lee Ho-jun had a glimmer of hope on their faces.
Flash!
That was until the second-year knight froze like a stone right before Sega’s eyes.
“crazy!”
“what?”
The cockatrice flapped her battered wings and popped her head out of the hole.
“Karrrrr… … .”
One eye was clearly blind, but the other eye had stopped bleeding, and although the wing was torn to shreds, the head and neck were unharmed.
“It’s covered.”
“yes?”
“You covered your head with your wings! Scatter!”
Lee Ho-jun screamed.
Flash!
The next moment, the cockatrice’s single eye flashed fiercely, and a purple paralyzing ray on a white background shot out.
dump!
The second-year student who threw the fireball collapsed without being able to move a finger.
“Shit.”
Park Wi-jin looked up at the cockatrice with an arrogant expression.
Yellow eyes glared at him sadistically.
The moment the paralyzing ray is fired.
“Senior! Bow down!”
The cockatrice’s head twisted as if it had been hit by something.
puck!
A purple ray of light flew into the air, splitting the innocent sky apart.
“What’s the situation?”
* * *
There are times like that.
There are times when I’m so scared that I become calm.
I completely gave up hope that I would somehow be able to get through it because I had seniors.
I was filled with thoughts of how to somehow overcome this moment, and my learned instincts filled my body.
‘One stab in the eye will do.’
Sega got out of the swamp and ran, kicking the ground.
The cockatrice was about to shoot a paralyzing ray at Park Wi-jin.
‘Cohesion, distance, extension, hardness. And emission.’
A hemispherical saltwater shield was shot out in front and became a saltwater blaster.
puck!
The strongest shield, true to its name, firmly struck the opponent’s head, and the cockatrice’s light split the air.
“I’ll catch him! Just hold him back as planned!”
“No, what? What?”
“Isn’t it okay if it doesn’t fit into one side of your field of vision?”
Lee Ho-jun, who was preparing to escape by flying at low altitude, stopped in confusion.
“Kaaaak!”
The cockatrice turned her head and looked at Sega.
In an instant, a chain made of dirt shot up from the ground and yanked his neck down.
“Yes! You are right!”
The chain that Park Wi-jin had made in a hurry was quickly broken by the power of the Class A demon, but the paralyzing beam only grazed a few of Sega’s hairs.
He shouted as he made cube-shaped shelters measuring 3 meters in length, width, and height spring up all over the open space.
“I will do my best!”
Sega opened his mind again and shouted at the other second-year students.
“Seniors, please attack too! I am resistant to most elemental magic!”
A second-grader gritted his teeth and raised his hands to the sky again.
Woorung-!
A yellow light raced across the cloudy sky, and a lightning bolt as thick as a pillar struck the cockatrice’s head.
The remaining energy alone was enough to catch a person, but Sega used Judo to disperse the energy.
“I did write it, but… … What is it? How can it be used in induction… … .”
The second-year lightning wizard muttered in disbelief.
Another pyromancer, a second-year student, also used ‘ignition’ at the cockatrice’s feet.
A huge pillar of fire rose up, and a blistering heat enveloped them.
Sega used the pyromancy ‘Heat Control’ to disperse the flames and ran down the path.
“You’re also skilled in pyromancy?”
This time, the Cockatrice finally took aim at Sega.
slam!
The next moment, a huge wave of muddy water rose from the surrounding swamp, shaking the cockatrice and blocking her vision.
Among the second-year hemodynamics students, there were many who had a minor in hemodynamics.
The paralyzing ray tore through the air once again.
The wave that hit the Cockatrice crashed down and covered Sega.
Lee Ho-jun, a rigid-body telekinesis wizard, was also floated away and pushed outside the empty lot.
‘What’s the situation like…?’
Tsk tsk tsk!
It seemed as if blue veins were rising on Sega’s forearm, and then the fierce waves suddenly subsided.
The magical power contained in the water was dispersed through absorption, and the problem was resolved with the ability obtained from the magic stone of the hidden sea beast.
Sega has now reached the cockatrice’s nose.
The cockatrice opened its beak wide and tried to let out a roar of anger.
‘no.’
Lee Ho-jun performed the same technique while calling out Sega’s name.
“The situation is!”
“All right!”
At the tip of the outstretched finger, space is distorted and a translucent hemisphere appears.
Chewing!
Gently wave forward, and it shoots out, tripling in size, crushing and pushing away the opponent.
The first-year student of Shinseoul and the second-year student of Shinseoul shot out together and hit the cockatrice’s neck and beak.
Phew!
The lower jaw was pushed up, the beak closed, and the breath that was on the verge of bursting out went down again as the throat was pressed.
“Kaaaak! Kaaaak!”
The cockatrice let out a scream as if she had a case.
“yes!”
“good!”
Lightning strikes bind the cockatrice’s legs, heat rays burn her wing membranes, chains shoot up and pull at her neck, and bloodshot bullets tear at her wounds.
The A-class demon endured all of these attacks with its scaled and feathered body, silently emitting paralyzing rays.
A second-year lightning wizard, a second-year blood wizard, and a second-year pyromancer fell to the floor.
Finally, the cockatrice’s yellow eyes captured Sega.
Lee Ho-jun gritted his teeth and tried to kick the ground.
‘Even with your body!’
It was impossible for him to inflict fatal damage on a Class A demon using his telekinesis after awakening as a body magician.
“It’s not as scary as when I got hit by Iljinrim in mobile marksmanship.”
However, Sega smiled as if he was invincible and in an instant, he accelerated to more than four times the speed and disappeared from Cockatrice’s sight.
Boom! Boom!
A wave-like resonance of magical power surged through his entire body.
He saved it until the last moment, so that the cockatrice would not get used to his speed.
“Kaaaak?!”
The cockatrice raised her head in confusion.
Sega ran into the air, stepping on the platform of power.
‘Magic power… …! Was it really impossible to use it with Overflow?’
Just before he was about to falter at the limit of his magical power control, the platform of power created by Lee Ho-jun flew in like a tile from an arcade game.
“go!”
“Thank you, senior!”
Sega kicked the ground again, stepping on the translucent tiles.
I ran along the neck and reached right next to the yellow eyes.
“¦¦¦¦¦-!”
Cockatrice, who had found Sega again, tried to fire a paralyzing ray.
The moment when a purple-white ray of light bursts out.
Clang!
Sega’s sword energy pierced through the eyes with a glass-shattering sound and tore through the demon’s head.
