Lord of Training - Chapter 105
Only Krnovel
105. My own S-class skill.
Inside the canyon was a basilisk’s nest.
Every time the creature breathed, green smoke would billow out of its nostrils.
For a moment, I realized that I shouldn’t stay here too long, so I slowly flew backwards and escaped.
“I’m sorry. I thought it was a dimensional core because you entered the labyrinth gate and didn’t move at all.”
When I told her what was inside, the saint apologized urgently.
“No. As long as they don’t move, you can’t tell the difference between a dimensional core and a dimensional monster.”
Because there is a dimensional core in the belly of the dimensional monster.
Phelps said.
“It’s a shame, but please look for another base.”
“Wait a minute, what if we catch that guy?”
“yes?”
As I came, I noticed that not even a single living creature lived here.
And the crop herd didn’t come near either.
They must know of the Basilisk’s existence too.
So if we kill that guy and get ourselves settled, we’ll be safe for the rest of our lives.
Even if they did attack, this was a good place to defend.
“Well, it’s much safer here than the elf base.”
The agents who heard my story nodded.
If we placed two orbital giants at the entrance to the canyon and set up a barricade, it would be easy to catch them as they came running.
“But how do we catch that monster?”
“Should we lure them first? The cave is narrow, after all?”
“It also seems like a good idea to attack with spirit shells when exiting a narrow canyon.”
You’ve all caught S-class dimensional monsters many times, you’re all experts!
The agents took after me and started planning the operation first.
***
The next morning.
Captain Herman looked worried.
“Ha! Are you okay?”
“I have faith in your flying skills.”
The canyon was fairly wide, about 50 to 100 meters, so using high-speed flight was no problem.
However, to lure the guy out, I had to keep shooting the rifle to provoke him, but my backfly skill was limited.
Because I don’t have any eyes behind me.
But Herman has a judo technique, so even if he flies forward and shoots backward, he gets hit by the guy every time he shoots.
“Let’s start.”
Captain Herman took a deep breath and entered the cave where the basilisk was.
I waited for Captain Herman in the hole in the ceiling.
I was thinking that if something happened, I would step in and save you.
Boom! Boom! Tata ta tata!
The explosion of magic grenades and the sound of gunfire signaled the start of the operation.
This operation has a 50% chance of success if we can lure the thing out of its nest.
Paaaaang!
“Eww!”
Crunch! Crack! Crack!
Herman started firing his assault rifle backwards while using his high-speed flight skill.
As expected, it’s a judo technique. If you hit with the first shot, you can hit every time you shoot in a similar direction. If only he had better firepower, wouldn’t he have been the best marksman?
“Kuaaaaah!”
Kookung! Kookukookukung!
And then a huge thing chases after it, rolling on eight legs.
Perhaps because it has many legs, it is a heavy animal that moves very quickly.
I chased the guy from above.
“Kurururuk!”
The running guy suddenly slowed down and puffed out his cheeks.
That’s poison gas!
Chi-chik!
“Herman! He’s shooting poison gas!”
Paaaaang! Paaaaang!
Herman, who had been controlling his speed to keep his distance from the monster, moved as fast as he could.
Hwaaaa!
Hwarrrrrr!
A green smoke breath was instantly emitted 200 meters ahead.
Luckily, Herman was out of breath range.
“Kuaaaa!”
Kukukukung!
The bastard runs again through the smoke he shot.
He seemed determined to catch me, since I had made him angry.
Chi-chik!
– I came out.
Herman emerged from the narrow canyon after a long time.
And then the basilisk came out in pursuit.
The first operation was a success.
Chi-chik!
“4th Battalion, attack him!”
Phelps and the 4th Battalion attacked the bastard from a distance.
Tata tang! Tata tang!
Boom! Boom!
“Crrrrrrr!”
Suddenly attacked from all sides, the Basilisk buried its head in the ground and crouched down.
‘What are you doing?’
Chi-chik!
“Everyone stand back!”
As we stopped attacking, the Basilisk raised its head again.
and.
“Kkiiia!”
At that moment, five wyverns flying nearby heard gunshots and explosions.
Chi-chik!
“Everyone hide and wait!”
The wyvern circled in the air and began attacking the basilisk.
Although it was a very large and heavy creature, the wyvern was a flying monster.
It flew from the sky and attacked the basilisk with its sharp claws.
‘Lee Jae-yong is always right!’
It was the best choice, especially when you didn’t know the abilities of the opposing monster.
Then the basilisk buried its head in the ground again.
Then, the wyverns began to attack more aggressively, thinking that they were afraid of them.
Pot! Pop!
One of them came down and openly stuck its beak out and was pulling out thorns.
At that moment, the basilisk’s body suddenly swelled greatly.
“Kkiruk?”
It was when the wyvern tilted its head.
Bang! Papapapapapat!
Thousands of thorns flew in all directions.
Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!
“Kkiak!”
“Eek!”
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Not only the wyvern right next to me, but even the one flying in the sky all fell to the ground.
For a moment, a chill ran down my spine.
I knew how to shoot thorns, so I was careful, but I didn’t know they would fly that far, and I didn’t know they would fire thousands of them at once.
“Kuaaaah!”
Wagjak! Wagjak!
The basilisk roared loudly and began to eat the wyvern that had fallen to the ground.
And once the thorn was shot, it never came back.
‘Ah! So you’ve eaten enough food and are sleeping until the thorns grow back!’
Now I think I know its hunting patterns.
Chi-chik!
“Do not approach within 200 meters and attack with all your might!”
– yes!
– yes!
The 4th and 1st Battalions flew away simultaneously.
“Wow! It’s so big!”
“Oh my god! It’s an S-class dimensional monster!”
The 1st Battalion members seemed momentarily dumbfounded at the sight of the giant basilisk.
It was their first time seeing an S-class monster.
And Lieutenant Colonel Audrey also looked surprised when she saw the S-class dimensional monster. She also entered the S-class labyrinth gate, but all she caught was an A-class monster.
“What are you doing? Shoot!”
Bang! Tata tang! Bang!
Boom! Boom!
The 4th Battalion fired their rifles first.
Then the 1st Battalion members also fired simultaneously.
“Use your strongest skill!”
“Concentrate your firepower!”
Audrey’s eyes turned blue and a magic circle flashed in front of the rifle.
She uses her specialty, Lightning (lv.3) skill.
Taang!
Phew! Phew!
“Kuaaaaang!”
The Basilisk screamed in pain as bullets were fired from all directions.
But the bastard resisted by shooting green breath.
“stand back!”
Hwaaaaah!
A green breath that flies up to 200 meters.
We took a slight step back.
The unpleasant green smoke soon blew away in the wind.
I moved over the bastard’s head.
And I picked up a spirit shell.
If you delay, more wyverns may come.
I pushed the spirit shell hard and knocked it down.
Wheeeeeeing!
Kwaaaaang! Hwaaaaah!
A fierce flame engulfed the basilisk.
The creature screamed and started running away to its nest.
But it was very slow because it had already taken a lot of damage.
‘Who will get the experience points?’
All the agents attacked the bastard with their most powerful skills.
It was an S-class dimensional monster.
Since it was a place where experience points were gained through the final blow, all the experience points were concentrated in one person.
Phelps and the 4th Battalion men were also firing with all their might.
“Ugh!”
Kookookung! Kwung!
After a while, the Basilisk’s eight legs spread out in all directions.
The bastard is dead.
I looked at the members.
At that moment, I saw a smile on Lieutenant Colonel Audrey’s lips.
‘Audrey ate it.’
That’s good.
If the battalion commander becomes strong, his subordinates will follow him well.
“Okay! Now let’s dismantle the monster!”
The agents looked disgusted.
Blood spurted everywhere, and flesh was torn apart.
It’s gross, but it has to be done.
That way, I can keep turning on my poison extraction enchantment.
***
My choice was right.
This place is a natural fortress.
You just have to block the entrance well.
Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom!
“Kueuk!”
“Kkuruk!”
Croptile, who was climbing up the canyon, is torn apart by the orbital giant’s cannon.
“Shoot!”
“Fire!”
Bang! Tata ta tang! Bang!
The magic knights and soldiers behind the barricade fired simultaneously.
The crops that were climbing up the narrow 100-meter valley fell down helplessly.
Since even wyverns cannot approach this place, you only have to deal with the enemies right in front of you.
And at the top of the canyon, the aerial magic knights were waiting.
If the Crops come too close or there are too many of them, they prepare to attack and reduce their numbers.
“Whew! It looks like all the soldiers will wake up today.”
A smile finally spread across Prince Arc’s face.
At first, when there were many casualties and injuries, they looked worried and concerned, but now, after two weeks, they seem to have become a little more at ease.
“While you’re here, it’s a good idea to level up as much as possible and increase your awakening skills.”
“I know. And thank you very much.”
Prince Arc must have come in here and thanked me dozens of times already.
There were about 100 awakened people, and if we were lucky, 8 soldiers were able to awaken the flying technique.
In my opinion, these will now become the cornerstone of the Kingdom of Lutes.
Crackle! Crackle!
As the number of incoming crops increases, sparks begin to fly around Lieutenant Colonel Audrey.
This time, I caught the S-class monster Basilisk and awakened the Lightning (lv. 1) skill.
When you use the Overlap (lv.3) skill there, a white spark will flash in front of the muzzle.
Tuan!
Kwaaang!
Pfft pfft pfft!
“Kiririri!”
“Crunch!”
Four Crops were instantly killed by the explosion, and seven or eight Crops fell down, shuddering due to the powerful lightning flowing around them.
Even looking at it again, it’s still a terrifying force.
It was a skill with better killing power than my Fire Explosion (lv.3) skill.
Lieutenant Colonel Nicole was also stimulated by Lieutenant Colonel Audrey’s rapid growth, and she stepped forward in front of the barricade and mercilessly cut down the rushing Crops.
The most unusual one is, of course, Saint Veronica.
At first, the saintess was worried about how she would kill, but now she was slaughtering monsters as soon as she saw them, even without being asked to do so.
‘This is also God’s will or something······.’
It looks to me like you’re enjoying it?
And she awakened the skill of seeing weaknesses, and she instantly knocks down Cropp by hitting his weakest point like a ghost.
Moreover, the rapid fire and shooting ability are so excellent that even if you fire ten rounds, there is only one hole.
Her insane aim and shooting skills left other aerial magic knights in awe.
The saint was growing very rapidly here.
Since even the common soldiers were mostly awakened, it was easier to stop the monster, and thanks to that, I also had some time to think.
‘Emperor Karl Modus······.’
Many questions arose about the story of the Emperor of the Empire that I heard from Prince Arc.
His similar growth story to mine makes me wonder if he was reincarnated or possessed.
Especially when I heard the story about how he went through the labyrinth gate and sneaked in, it was clear that he knew how to get stronger quickly.
He wasn’t an elf who could see the future, so I was curious about his true identity.
‘Surely there isn’t another alchemist like me?’
Before I jumped into the abyss, there were four hunter alchemists, including me.
Of course, there could be alchemists I don’t know about.
But would anyone be as stupid as me and jump into the abyss gate?
Even if you entered the abyss, it was nearly impossible to get out.
Because I had to be very lucky like that, and also have to maintain my sane(?) mind.
And there was no trace of alchemy in this world.
I had never seen an external magic circle, and although I had seen imperial firearms and weapons, they were all elven magic circles.
If the Emperor was an alchemist, he would have come to this world 30 years before me and would have memories of his past life, so he should have become a SSS-level alchemist at least as good as Nicolas Flamel by now.
Then the things he could do were endless.
They would have produced dozens of tanks a day, and could even create the philosopher’s stone, called the dimensional core.
Then the elven heritage would have been used long ago.
So he wasn’t an alchemist.
‘If I meet the Emperor of the Empire, my curiosity will be satisfied······.’
He shook his head.
You can worry about that later.
What’s important now is to get through this labyrinth gate safely.
Even though the battle was in full swing, I brought my weapons.
“Are you really going alone?”
Major Phelps asked.
“Why do you think I won’t be able to come back?”
“How could that be? No matter how fast the wyvern is, it can’t keep up with you, Commander. I just think you’re pushing yourself too hard.”
I gave a snicker.
“Now is the best time to get stronger. Once you get out of here, things will get crazy busy.”
“Is there going to be another war?”
“There will be a great war. It will be fought all over the world.”
Major Phelps frowned.
I heard from Evolod that the Empire is deploying its troops forward.
Moving troops takes a long time, so move in advance.
“Haa! Then we can’t just sit still either.”
“That’s for you to decide.”
As soon as he heard me, Phelps assembled the 4th Battalion.
If there were four people who could use the high-speed flight skill at the moment, they could easily catch two or three wyverns.
I left this place to Audrey and Nicole and flew into the air alone.
Now it was time to hunt.
***
Tata Tang!
“Kkiiia!”
Choaaaah!
I’ve been hunting a pack of wyverns for the past few days.
Use the Body Vision (lv. 3) skill, use a defense skill every now and then, and fly backwards with the Back Fly (lv. 3) skill to avoid the wyvern.
I chased them down using the high-speed flight (lv. 3) skill and the stacking (lv. 3) skill to move quickly.
I killed them using the skills Penetration (lv.3), Fire Burst (lv.3), Fire Explosion (lv.3), and Stack (lv.3).
I hunt using all the techniques and skills I have.
‘Leisurely hunting and leveling up is the last!’
The moment you enter the S-rank labyrinth gate again, you will inevitably have to fight the Imperial Aerial Magic Knights, and if an all-out war breaks out, you will have to fight like crazy.
The busiest year of my life was ahead of me.
And a few days later, the final bloody battle awaited the Arica Republic Airborne Magic Knights and the named-class knight, Major General Telfert.
They won’t be sending us out here nicely.
Telferd Draw, if you can’t get past him here, fighting the Empire’s named knights will become more difficult.
That’s why I’m tired, exhausted, and lonely, but I’m still giving it my all to hunt the monster today.
For a life without regrets!
Tata tata tang!
Phew! Hwarururur!
“Kueeeee!”
Kuung!
The last sixth wyvern fell to the ground.
[Concentrated technique (S)]
[Awakened the skill Tunnel Vision (lv.1).]
A message appeared indicating that the highest level skill of the concentration technique, the advanced skill of the body vision (lv. 3), had been awakened.
[Tunnel Vision (lv.1) – Highly focused on movement within 50m.
Everything disappears from sight beyond 50 meters.
Time is split into countless pieces, and objects around you appear to move slowly.
Mana consumption when using skills – 500
Mana cost when maintaining skill – 100 (per second)
[This skill consumes a huge amount of mana, so even after the skill effect disappears, you will feel dizzy for a while, and the mana burn phenomenon can cause a strong feeling of exhaustion.]
I have my own named skill!
