The Academy’s Barbarian Chapter 338

Chapter 69. clash (2)

2.050

The appearance of Arena Rudric, who has turned into a monster.

Furthermore, a sudden battle began as the attacks of pagans steeped in the abyss continued.

And what I learned during this process was that they were strangely persistent in targeting the wizards of the Magic Tower.

“order! Get into formation!”

“We fight while protecting the wizards!”

As a result, the knights who had been fighting the monsters while maintaining their attack formation all retreated back. There were others who took their place after them.

Quagga-ga-ga-ga! Quang!

A barrage of sword strikes scraping the ground.

The main characters of the attack that blew away the monsters with a single blow were Istan and Theoric.

“Lord Gorpant.”

Meanwhile, Istan, who was preparing for the next blow, called out to Seorik. Then, with his eyes narrowed, he asked in a whisper.

“Have you noticed anything?”

“Of course. “It looks like that Arena Rudric is controlling other monsters.”

Seoric nods his head slowly.

As he said, the heretics, stained and contaminated by the abyss, moved in the direction indicated by Arena Ludric and persistently targeted the wizards.

“The work has been decided.”

“okay. “I have to deal with that first.”

The eyes of the two masters glowed fiercely.

Of course, in order to get to Arena Ludric, you had to break through the cultists blocking your way, but it wasn’t really a problem. It just took a little time, but it wasn’t impossible.

Meanwhile, the two masters were seriously engaged in battle. Ulan, who seemed like he would be the first to jump into battle, still waited in the rear.

There is only one reason why he doesn’t come forward.

To find the most threatening enemy somewhere here. However, it was difficult to find with just the naked eye or senses, so I immediately looked back at Noah.

“Where is Largtan?”

“Well, at least it’s not close.”

Noah shook his head.

I just used detection techniques to search the surroundings, but there was no sign of Largtan anywhere.

“The only thing I found out is that there are enemies other than Arena Ludric and the heretics.”

“What do you mean?”

“There are guys hiding in the dark.”

Bright blue eyes looked beyond the darkness.

What I found out while detecting Largtan’s presence. The point was that there were enemies that had not yet appeared.

On the other hand, Ulan reacted calmly.

“It’s not really important.”

Of course. Anyone who isn’t Largtan won’t be his opponent in the first place.

Noah nodded silently.

Then, just as I was trying to focus my mind to find any sign of Largtan again.

“Ulan.”

Suddenly, Delia spoke up.

When Ulan turned her head, she raised her toes and tapped the ground. She then continued her words with a very serious expression.

“I realized this a little while ago, but I can feel an unusual flow of magic power down here.”

“what? That means…”

“I think the Giant King is a little further down.”

Largtan exists further down than the underground space where the party is currently located. Noah frowned slightly at this explanation and muttered.

“It’s a similar story to the original.”

“It seems like that.”

Ulan also nodded in agreement.

Even in his past life, Largtan did not appear with other giants or relatives. He just dug a trap and waited.

Ulan narrowed his eyes.

Then I remembered Largtan’s trap.

‘Chain of the Abyss.’

This terrible curse manifests simply by being near Largtan. And as the number of targets affected by the curse increases, the power of the curse decreases.

So, I am somewhere else alone.

In order to amplify the effect of the curse to the maximum and pour it on the warriors. Ulan, who sensed Largtan’s intention, smiled coldly.

“But I have no intention of fitting in there.”

“I think the same.”

Noah also nodded.

In the original, you had to fall into Largtan’s trap several times, but this time it’s different.

Here, there are the imperial army and magic tower wizards, as well as reliable allies called Istan and Seorik.

‘therefore······.’

I had no intention of moving underground.

Fighting Largtan is after weakening the power of the curse he prepared as much as possible.

To do that, we would have to move together with the imperial army.

For this to happen, there was work to be done first.

“Then I guess our most important priority at this point is to clean up this place.”

Ian, who was listening to the conversation between the two, raised his shield.

That wasn’t all. Sven was ready to fire a barrage of arrows at any moment, and Delia also carved countless magic spells into the air.

When everyone finished preparing for battle.

Suddenly, a scream-like shout was heard from in front.

“Everyone be careful!”

“Giant people! “The giants have appeared!”

The enemies hidden in the darkness that Noah mentioned earlier have been revealed. It was a group of dozens of giants.

“Stay back! “We’ll take care of them!”

With the appearance of the giants, Istan and Seorik changed direction without hesitation.

They are monsters that can move freely within their territory. It is difficult for knights who are not masters to fight against giants.

[Gaaaa!]

At that time, the giants attacked first.

Accordingly, the two masters worked together and showed great success against the giants. As the skirmish continued, Seorik suddenly crumpled his face.

“It’s a little different from the guys I dealt with last time.”

“Yes, it’s much faster than it was then.”

Istan nodded in agreement.

As the two said, the giants that appeared in front of them were much more powerful than when they last fought on the canyon front.

My strength became stronger, my speed increased, and even my skin became stronger. To the point where you can’t guarantee victory if you don’t do your best.

‘and······.’

One more thing, there was something strange.

The giants’ eyes were opened and parts of their bodies turned black. It looked similar to a pagan polluted by the abyss.

But there was no time to observe further.

“······Lord Gorpant.”

“I know. “The number has increased since before.”

Because I learned that the number of giants, which used to be only a few dozen, has now surpassed a hundred. If things continue like this, the battle will only become more difficult.

“It’s better to step back from here…”

I felt it while fighting the giants.

If the battle continues here, the underground space itself may collapse. So wouldn’t it be better to fight on the ground at least?

Istan decided so.

Just as Seorik was about to nod his head in agreement, a flash of light suddenly shot between them and flew into the battlefield.

Quagga-ga-ga-ga! Quang!

It rushed in noisily and blew off the heads of the giants who were closing the distance. The two masters who saw this scene widened their eyes.

“······!”

A time short enough to blink once.

The flash of light that flew through that split-second gap instantly destroyed the heads of the five giants.

It’s truly overwhelming. There is only one person strong enough to do this.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

A young man with flowing red-brown hair.

With his red eyes flashing, he took a stride forward. He then continued speaking while glaring at the giants who were trying to surround him on all sides.

“From now on, I will take the lead.”

“Now, you…”

Seorik gapes as if surprised.

Then, I suddenly came to my senses.

This was because Ulan was trying to run alone towards a battlefield full of giants.

“Avoid reckless actions!”

“No matter how much you do, it’s hard for you to deal with that number of giants by yourself…”

Istan also dissuaded Ulan’s actions.

But before he could finish his sentence, Ulan shook his head first.

“It’s okay. “I’m used to it.”

To the point where I’m so sick of it.

After answering, Ulan smiled coldly.

Then, recalling the memories of my past life, I kicked the ground. An urgent cry came from behind me, but I heard it with one ear and ignored it.

Because it was someone he was really familiar with.

‘Giant people.’

If you look at it objectively, it is a difficult opponent.

Their physical abilities were far superior to those of humans, and they even had the advantage of being able to move without any restrictions even in the master’s realm.

However, this part was good.

‘There is a simple solution.’

Moving faster than the giants within the area. In addition to this, Ulan even has a hidden trick called the transcendental realm.

So, the area problem has been resolved.

The real problem was different.

‘Weakness of the giants.’

There are only two ways to completely eliminate them. One crushes the head and the other crushes the heart.

However, giants have four hearts, and unless they are destroyed at the same time, they can regenerate almost infinitely.

‘But it’s only close to infinity.’

It does not play indefinitely.

Therefore, Ulan came up with a third way to eliminate the giants. Slaughtering them much faster than they can regenerate right away.

With simple yet destructive methods, Ulan entered the battlefield filled with giants.

Soon the hunting began.

“······!?”

The skin was torn and the bones were crushed.

Then, as a flash of light flashed, the giants collapsed, spilling out dark red blood and internal organs.

Also, the giants who tried to block Ulan’s path were torn to pieces as if they had been ground by a grinder. It wasn’t even enough to describe it as hunting.

It was truly a one-sided massacre.

Of course, the giants also did their best.

They intervened in Ulan’s expanded territory and launched an onslaught on him.

Quang! bang! Quang! Quaaaang!

The impact was enough to shake the entire ground, and the place where Ulan was was engulfed in smoke.

[Grrr!]

The giants smiled in remorse.

I thought this would have completely reduced it to dust.

But this was a miscalculation.

As the smoke cleared, I noticed it.

The fact that the onslaught they unleashed with all their might was completely blocked by the Ulan.

[───?!]

At this moment, the giants’ eyes were shaking.

This time, the Ulan counterattack continued.

Kwak-ga-ga-ga-gak! puck! Pow! Quack!

A blow that sweeps as quickly as a flash of light.

Every time the light flashed, the giant’s body burst like a balloon. This offensive finally stopped after all the surrounding giants were torn apart.

“Gaaaaaa—!”

A roar that resonates throughout the hall.

However, this did not belong to the giants.

The main character of the voice is Ulan. In the middle of the battlefield, drenched in the blood of giants, he let out a shout that was only allowed to winners.

And from this moment─.

The atmosphere of the battlefield changed completely.

[Grrr! That’s right!]

[Ugh!]

The giants’ cries were no longer heard.

It’s not because they’ve all disappeared. This is because they were intimidated by Ulan’s actions and his roar. Then, a certain emotion appeared in the blurry eyes.

Awe and fear. The emotion called fear slowly spread like an infectious disease. Then, the source of fear touched my lips.

“come! “I am here!”

Ulan pounding his chest with his fist.

However, the giants did not move easily. I don’t know if I was intimidated by his momentum, or if there was another reason.

Then Ulan moved his feet.

“If you won’t come, I will go!”

One step forward.

With this as a signal, an area spanning ninety-nine steps engulfed the battlefield. What followed was a harsh onslaught before the giants could react.

[Geuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!]

Giants shrugging their shoulders.

As the gap between Ulan narrowed and his ax approached, my fear intensified. And finally, one by one, the giants retreated.

[Yeah, yeah!]

A monster that causes fear among the giants.

A warrior who displayed great success against numerous giants in his past life. In response, people called Ulan this way out of respect.

‘Giant slayer.’

And at this moment, the being that emerged from the vortex of time that had been repeated countless times has proven its identity once again.

It was the second coming of the giant slayer.
