Chapter 422 – Settlement in the Dungeon (8)

I tried out the new power I gained, the black and white twin wheels.

Perhaps because he was the 8th star of the Lotus Flame Godkong, there was no difference in being able to handle eight rings, and he had to create two rings in his body to maintain the black and white twin wheels.

So, there are six rings that can actually be used, and compared to when creating a ring by going back and forth between two properties, the number can be seen as greatly reduced.

I made 8 shadow circles and flame rings and threw a spiral break through the shadow lance.

However, as I felt when I fought Garm last time, I basically had a shadow energy, so I ignored some of the magic defense.

Since it contains the purifying power of white flame and the spirit energy that can interfere with the soul, it seems like it will be able to catch a ghost well.

“You can use technology however you want.”

As has been used so far, the white ring is not a series that emits energy, and the black ring is not a series that embodies physical power, but it was also possible to use them in reverse.

Since the efficiency is slightly lower, it seemed better to use the original properties unless there is a special situation.

Instead of using black wheel beads and white wheel beads, you can use black wheel beads and white wheel beads.

Black and white twin wheels, black wheels, Yeonggeuk.

The size of the black ring floating in the air grew slightly larger, and very thin shadow thorns began to pour out from within.

The visual effect seems weaker compared to the Hakuryun that spews out a pillar of white flame, but it is sharp enough to pierce most armor.

If you don’t want to burn it to death in one go, use that… Will it be subdued? I looked at the thorns of shadow that instantly covered the floor and shook my head.

I thought it would be better to throw a shadow sword and definitely suppress it, but I thought that was too much.

“And since I’m possessed, I can’t use it properly.”

If you think about it this way, it makes sense that in Lee Sian’s world, which is no different from a tutorial, he was given several skills that use mental power as a resource, which has great versatility.

“It would be nice to get other attributes as well.”

If I could get lightning with powerful attack power, I thought I could make quite interesting combinations of lightning and shadow, lightning and fire.

And the best thing about black and white twin wheels is this.

“Even if I remove the ring, my body is fine.”

Even when using the black and white twin wheels, which basically provide improvement in physical ability comparable to the wave ring resonance, no positive or negative energy remains in the body.

In fact, if I had only used the mana in my body when fighting Garm, I wouldn’t have overloaded my arms.

The burning forest where the sun had disappeared was a perfect environment for me to draw mana, and I was able to erase it without a trace because I poured all of that power into it.

I came out of the training center thinking that being able to utilize the power inside and outside my body was a good example of the nature of Yeonyeomshingung.

While I was working out alone in the weight room, a man with a familiar face came in.

“Vulcan? Have you finished the quest?”

The Vulcan I hadn’t seen on Monday approached me with long strides and spoke to me.

“Yes, it was a quest that only required three days, so I cleared it cleanly.”

Vulcan, who had a different feeling from the last time I saw him, seemed to feel something similar from me.

I got up from my seat and stood in front of Vulcan, and the tall Vulcan looked down and spoke to me.

“Is it time to take on the challenge already?”

When I first finished being possessed and came to the gym, I told Vulcan that I wanted to become the top of class Q at that time.

“So, at that time, I thought I would have to work my way up from the bottom of class Q… But if it were me and you now, I think I would be able to get a decent result even if I were to fight one round.”

The second semester class was originally supposed to have 8 people taking turns sparring, but after the Utopia incident, the number was reduced to 4.

So, I beat Chris Roanna once and lost to Asui Miyama and Vulcan Ludrick, but some time passed after that.

If you have a status window, you grow quickly, but our quest ability grows faster than that, so I don’t know how much we’ve changed.

If you experienced helplessness in the Ogre Dungeon during the midterm exam and cleared the quest afterward…

“Today’s physical training can be replaced with actual fighting. You didn’t make the excuse that you lost because you lost your strength, right?”

“Think of it as me looking after you.”

Vulcan and I left the physical training room and headed to the sparring room.

Although we are academy students, we are free people. Unlike us, there was a class that used the sparring room for classes. We looked at them for a moment and then went into the remaining room.

“Xian, why don’t we take off the shield?”

“Hmm… Okay. Let’s try that.”

The difference in physical ability still seems to be large, but it was like that when fighting Garum.

A shield was erected to protect the sparring room from our attacks, and we stood facing each other.

“Don’t die in one hit.”

“Didn’t remove the protective shield mean to adjust it appropriately?”

“It means let’s do it like in real life.”

At that moment, gray mana spurted out from Vulcan’s body.

That mass of mana, which can be inflated to a gigantic size, seemed to have become a darker gray than before.

‘Should we go straight to black and white twin wheels?’

With the idea of ​​testing the skills I had previously learned, I decided to change the battlefield to suit me.

Calling Shadow.

The sparring room was consumed by darkness due to the shadow emanating from my body.

If it were not for the light emitted by Vulcan, whose body is covered in gray mana, nothing would have been visible.

I looked at Vulcan, who was naturally covering the shadow from my body and examining the surroundings, obliterating his presence.

“It’s changed more than I thought.”

‘Because I live in a slightly different time compared to you.’

What Vulcan chose to escape from the darkness was the same attack as the Hero candidate who had encountered this situation.

Gray mana gathered around both hands, forming a huge fist.

The moment Vulcan struck the floor with a powerful fist as thick as a log, I responded with a sword of shadow that surrounded all directions.

Skill Link-Boost

Dominate Shadow. Shadow Craft.

Kwaaang!

When Vulcan hit the sparring room with his fist, my body, standing a little away, shook with shock.

I was shaken by the impact, but Vulcan was having a hard time blocking the shadow swords coming from all directions.

Kaga River!

He swung his huge fist and struck down several shadow swords at once, hitting the ground with his fist once more.

Kwaaang!

Are you saying that you can find me by the vibration of the ground as I am using my spirit to completely kill my presence?

When I thought that, Vulcan flew straight towards me, as if to let me know that my guess was correct.

Skill Link-Boost

Shadow Craft. Rosary beads.

Kwaaaaang!

A pillar of shadow suddenly appeared right below the Vulcan that was flying towards me, pinning the Vulcan to the ceiling.

Even if the world is covered with shadows, the size of the sparring room does not change.

However, I know that that level of attack cannot cause much damage to Vulcan.

If you don’t attack using shadow energy properly, you will only lose mana.

I recovered my mana by removing the shadows that spread around me.

The Vulcan who landed on the ground looked at me and said.

“You have completely become a wizard.”

“You can feel that way because its original origins are close to magic.”

Skill Link-Boost

Yeonyeom Shingong (連炎神功). Shadow Craft.

Flame Craft.

This time, flames were wrapped around both fists to fight Vulcan in close combat.

“Okay. Show Roanna the magic and then fight with me!”

I also had to increase my strength to deal with the Vulcan that came at me like it was flying once again.

Five-wheel resonance (fifth wheel resonance).

I created a ring of flame within my body and increased my physical abilities, then stretched out my fist to match Vulcan’s strong fist.

Yeomryun Fwon (炎輪拳) Three Wheels (三輪).

The red flame turned into white flame and collided with the gray fist.

Kwaang!

‘I thought it would be a battle of strength if it was an 8-star smoke flame technique!’

While Vulcan’s body remained steady, I felt my body being pushed backwards.

Shadow Craft using Calling Shadow definitely had the potential to overpower Vulcan, but is fighting with an 8-star Flame Sword not enough to deal with Vulcan?

I fell back and raised Paryun Gongmyeong to eight wheels.

As the eight rings of flame resonated like crazy inside the body, the red flame that had momentarily turned white changed back to white.

Breaking through the loop current.

After that, I used a fist covered in white flame with piercing power and struck Vulcan’s fist.

The Quagga Gaga River!

When I used the Flame Wheel, my body could not withstand Vulcan’s attack, but now I can withstand it.

‘The problem is that Vulcan did not show his sincerity.’

In the current situation, one way would be to use a spiral break and push with stronger force, but if you think about it, Vulcan really didn’t do anything.

It just surrounds me with gray mana to increase my defense and quickly approaches me to hit me with a powerful fist.

‘As expected, the idea of ​​​​​​overwhelming power is very unreasonable.’

Does Vulcan know that I am currently using numerous skills to deal with him?

“If you don’t show me the power you have, I’ll show it to you first.”

“Oh my. I didn’t expect that level of motivation.”

I immediately prepared a spiral breakthrough to respond to the unknown attack that Vulcan was planning.

Just looking at it, an incredible amount of energy gathered in Vulcan’s fist.

The huge gray steel fist shrunk in size like the white flame gauntlet I was wearing, and the hexagonal pattern I had seen before began to appear on the gray fist.

‘Hyeonmu? Is that a quest?’

Vulcan, whose gray fists contained tremendous power, took a big step forward and appeared right in front of me. I ‘saw through’ his steps, so I used the spiral breakthrough I had prepared.

Breaking through the spiral flow.

The moment my fist, filled with rotating, piercing power, collided with Vulcan’s fist containing the power of Hyeonmu, I felt a strange force.

And in the blink of an eye, I was thrown against the wall of the sparring room and was dumbfounded by the impact I felt not on my hands but on my back.

“Huh…? What is it?”

As I landed on the ground, I asked Vulcan, and Vulcan tilted his head and said.

“I tried to pull, but I pushed it away. I wasn’t used to it yet, so I made a mistake. Shall we try again?”

I don’t know what it is, but it seems like my classmate has become stronger than I thought.
