Chapter 35 – #12. There Are Only Deceivers (2).

#12. There are only cheaters.

Goblins, Gnolls, Kobolds, and Humans.
It’s safe to say that our combination is the worst in this exam hall.

I don’t understand how they put it together like this.
Someone’s malice must have been involved in team matching.
There is no physical evidence, but you can see the blatant sentiment, right?

“Fuck.”

I saw a party going down the aisle already.
Yoo Da-hee’s party was also moving to take the test.
It was a quick skip because the important thing in the novel was not this test, but the attempted rape of Park Cheol-eon at night.
What Dahee Yoo was riding was neither a bus nor a taxi, but an airplane.

“Keruk! Let us set off too, human!”
“… Yeah, it’s better to get hit first.”

I can’t avoid it anyway
Nuclear missiles are falling all over the earth, so how can they avoid it?
It is correct to build a bunker deep in the ground instead of trying to escape.

“Kong! A thought from a stinking goblin head is a good idea!”
“Keruk!”

Everyone was hesitant, except for the really outstanding party.
Because the boss monster is an unknown golem, it was difficult to move hastily.

“Let’s go. Fuck you bastards.”

We approached the assistant in charge of passage 8.
No one had entered yet, so we had a chance.

“I want to see the test.”
“… Go in.”

The 8th aisle assistant looked at our party like a bug.
It was a ghastly look that seemed to despise people.

Lizardman.
On the subject of lizards.

“Sud, what the hell is this curtain…”
“You just have to go through it.”

Enter passage 8.
A translucent membrane stretched over the entrance to the passage.
After passing through the swaying curtain, the atmosphere changed.
The shady energy, the uneasy atmosphere, anyway, my fucking hands and feet were shaking.

In the inventory, there are 11 recovery potions and two each of strength and agility enhancement potions.
I took out an enhancement potion from my inventory and drank it.
For 30 minutes, strength and agility increase by 2 levels.

‘I have to wake up as soon as possible.’

Whether it’s 30 minutes, an hour, or even longer.
I don’t know right now, but it’s better to clear it quickly anyway.

No, I’m going back tonight anyway, so what do I care about the other player’s eyes?

“Keruk! Human! Aren’t you afraid!”
“Susu, you never know when and where monsters will appear. This ominous energy, it looks like it will be attacked by surprise.”
“Kong! I don’t see any kobolds!”

Gnoll frantically searched for the kobold hidden in protective colors.
It was so fucking unsettling when the four of us were reduced to three.

“Don’t worry, I’m right next to you. We are just hiding in case an ambush comes.”
“Kong! You kobold! They want to use us as bait!”
“Sud, you’re smart about the dog’s head. If you know, close your mouth.”

A dog barking into the air.
It hurts my ears.

“Human! Keruk! Slow down!”
“Ah. Come quickly, just.”

We moved on.
Goblins, gnolls, these bastards walked so slowly that it was fucking frustrating.
There was a lot of fear that someone might not be the weakest.
No, maybe that’s why he was able to survive and come up?

Still, frustrating is frustrating.
I can still see the entrance to the aisle, but this kind of kinetics takes all day.
I just ate the potion.

“If you come late, go first.”

Before meeting the boss monster golem, there is a mid-boss monster.
I made one because it seemed irritating to drop a single golem.

Fortunately, the mid-boss monster is generated by the average of the party participating in the test.
Goblins, Gnolls, Kobolds, and Humans.
Since our average is just an idiot, it means there is no need to be afraid of the mid-boss monster.
They’re doing this because they don’t know anything.

I left the three that seemed to be crawling, which were extremely slow, and went forward.
Shortly thereafter, an earthworm the size of an adult woman rose from the dirt floor.
A myriad of indigenous soldiers, and beyond that, artifacts that generate indigenous soldiers emitted light.

A mid-boss just to consume our stamina.

“Keruk! Human!”
“Kong! I’m sorry! Kobolds! Come out now!”
“Sud, right next to you.”
“Kuong!”

The three weakest of them stood behind me, wriggling their short legs.

A goblin shaman holding a wand.
A kobold warrior armed with a club and shield.
A dog’s head that only believes in its nails and teeth.
And human.

Fucking, it was an exciting combination.

* * *

There is a super-large hologram screen in the empty lot where newbies and numerous players are waiting.
The hologram screen, which is divided into 10 divisions, reflects the parties undergoing the test in each of the 10 aisles.

“Hey, what are they doing?”
“Goblins, gnolls, kobolds, humans. How do you organize a team like that?”
“Don’t ignore the goblins, Keruk.”

Among them, it was the most incompetent party, not the most outstanding, that received the most attention.
As it was a test to filter out the bottom 5%, I had no choice but to pay attention to the lower floors.

“The bottom 5%? Aren’t they the bottom 1%?”

The scouts dispatched from each guild giggled while watching Jinwoo’s party.
From the point of view of the players living in the ‘Tower of Struggle’, Kim Jin-woo’s party was a worthless party that could not even be used as fertilizer.

“I’m bored. Shall we make a bet?”
“It’s good.”
“They die, 200,000 coins.”
“Keruk! 200,000 coins for not dying.”

In the ‘Tower of Struggle’, the goblin, who is close to a rare species, did not want her kind, whom she had seen for a long time, not to die.
It was a bet with a slim chance of winning, but she couldn’t stand it, angry at seeing her own people and thinking they would die for granted.

The player who was about to place a bet scratched his head embarrassingly.
It’s like seeing a friend who doesn’t notice all of a sudden.

Everyone’s attention was focused on passage 8.
Compared to other passages that pass through and shift without difficulty, passage 8 took an entire day to catch a native soldier.

‘Kim Jinwoo…’

The party of Dahee Yoo, who entered first, had already grabbed the golem and came out.
The party members were so good, the golem exploded in one hit.

‘I can’t die…’

Yu Da-hee prayed for Kim Jin-woo to come out alive while watching screen number 8.
If he dies, Kim Jin-woo, who has shared his feelings so far, will die.
Even if we met again after returning, it seemed that a corner of my heart would ache.

Kim Jin-woo swings his sword at the native soldier.
His Strength is level 6.
He moved forward, breaking the earthenware made to the average level of the party like a toy.

─ Shit, goblins! What is this fog!
─ Keruk! Mist of Warriors!
─ Are your eyes sore?
─ Keruk! Helps the excitement of warriors! Human! Doesn’t it seem like something has gotten stronger?
─ You just want to smash everything? This fuck!

Kim Jin-woo rushed like a berserker, and the native soldiers surrounded Kim Jin-woo, who was pulling aggro in a wide area.
The goblin shaman’s magic has no stat increase effect at all.
It just gave the feeling of being stronger by amplifying emotions that would be useful in battle.

─ Kungkong! I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I’m sorry! Kettle!
“Wow, Mr. What are they Are you spitting dirt?”

A mad dog bites the earthen pot.
However, the soil was composed of soil, and soil poured from the snout of the dog’s head.

─ Kwang! Kobolds! The kobold is gone!
─ Susu, you idiot. Just looking at it, don’t you know you have to break it?

Kim Jin-woo, who became a berserker due to the goblin shaman’s sorcery, and a dog’s head not much different from him, a goblin shaman waving a staff and blowing up the fog of a warrior.

The kobold shook his head as he watched the stupid party.

Kwajik-!

When the kobolds destroyed the artifact, many native soldiers returned to the earth.

─ Where have these bastards gone!
─ Yes, human. Lower your excitement

Light emanated from the goblin shaman’s staff.
As the warrior’s fog disappeared, Kim Jin-woo’s consciousness returned.

“These are great guys.”

Elena muttered in a pitiful way.
He has taught many knight apprentices and seen many players.
I’ve never seen guys so ragtag and lacking.

─ Whoa… Goblin, don’t use that mist again.
─ Keruk! Hate!

Jinwoo Kim ignored the goblins and walked ahead.
His whole body is full of scars from fighting without thinking.

Klopp-. Klopp-.

I drank a recovery potion.
The wound healed quickly.
However, the consumed stamina did not return.

How long did it take
A golem appeared on screen 8.

─ Looking at it in real life, it’s fucking big, isn’t it? 5 meters? Fuck. A detached house moves.
─ Keruk! Warriors, fight!
─ Fuck you, don’t you?
─ Keruk!

Jinwoo Kim hit the goblin with his shield.
The goblin shaman collapsed on the dirt floor.

─ Kwang! It doesn’t smell like goblins! Next time wash it with dirt, keng!
─ Keruk! Sounds funny!

At the goblin shaman who rose from the dust, he snickered and laughed.
The appearance of not being afraid at all even in front of a golem.

─ Kong. I thought today would be my last day

It wasn’t that he wasn’t afraid, it was just that his mouth was hardened because he was so scared.

The 5 meters felt by Jinwoo Kim and the 5 meters felt by goblins, gnolls, and kobolds are completely different.
The 5 meters they feel is a much bigger wall than humans feel.

─ Kwang! Kobolds!
─ Susu, I will do a surprise attack.

Kobolds disappearing again.
The golem starts moving.

─ Shivaaaaal! Come on!
─ Kwang! Human! Let’s fight together!

Kim Jin-Woo grabbed his sword and shield and charged.
Nol also ran towards the golem following Kim Jin-woo.

Slow-!
Slow-!

As the only material around was earth, the golem was composed of earth.
That’s why no matter how much you cut, there is no end.
Even if a part of the golem was cut with a knife as if scooping out soil, it was quickly restored and restored.
Pour water into the bottomless dock.
It seemed difficult to beat his resilience, let alone his core.

“Keuk, are they going to die?”
“I’m going to faint from exhaustion. Only Golem…”
“What are humans like? Oh, and goblins too.”
“Keruk! You want to fight!”

A laughing player and a hot goblin.

Even the newbies who were preparing for the test could not take their eyes off the 8th screen.
It didn’t help that the strong party got out of it at once, but the 8th screen, which was a mud fight, was helpful enough for weak players.

‘Ah…’

Yu Da-hee couldn’t hide her regret as she saw Kim Jin-woo fall after being beaten by a golem.
I could have helped if I was on the same team.

─ Susu, human! Wake up!

The kobold took Kim Jin-woo’s place and brandished a club at the golem.
A futile battle ensued.
If this continues, Article 142 will be annihilated.

Kim Jin-woo woke up wriggling.
He dazed for a moment as if thinking about something, and then shouted loudly at the three no-nonsense dogs.

─ Hey! Wouldn’t it be better for you guys to shorten your lifespan a bit rather than die here?
─ Keruk! What are you talking about, human!
─ Goblin. Mist of the Warriors. Make it quick Here, enough to cover the screen.
─ Screen? Keruk! What is it!
─That one in the vacant lot. Anyway quickly. Before those bastards die!
─ Keruk!

The goblin shaman started waving his staff.
Fog was gathering somewhere.
The fog was thicker than before.

“What. Can’t you see?”
“There! Show me the eighth screen!”

Elena frowned and waved her hand at one of her assistants.
An automated system was built to avoid intervening as much as possible.
Sometimes there were guys who made things big like this.

The screen that was showing party 142 began to show artificial movement.
At Elena’s command, a teaching assistant was directly piloting a drone-like familiar.

─ Kerub! Kerub! Sick! Sick! Kerub!
─ Kwang! Come on!
─ Susu, ee, what is this… !

Kim Jin-woo did not move from his place.

‘What are you doing Kim Jin-woo? In action… !’

Dahee Yoo shouted inwardly as she saw Kim Jinwoo standing still.
She and the other newbies didn’t even notice what Kim Jin-woo was doing.

“That bastard!”

Only the existing players here noticed that something was gathering around Kim Jin-woo.
Elena, in particular, shuddered close to her seizure and pointed her finger at her number 8 screen.

Elena’s harsh words drew the attention of the other players.

“Pluto! You were Pluto’s disciple! You fucking bastard!”

The moment his eyes were focused on Elena, who was giggling with a reddened face, Kim Jin-woo took a leap.

Slow-!
Quick-. Fall out-!

Kim Jin-woo’s iron sword pierced the golem and cut through the core at once.

“That bastard, bring him to me right now!”
