next day.

After finishing the meal with Park Se-ah’s breakfast, Tae-jeong went out to find the combat training ground.

It was to test the acquired skills before entering the real battle.

Fortunately, the training ground in the area where Taejeong was located was not too far away.

“I thought it was a round building over there.”

After finding the image Park Se-ah gave her, Tae-jeong was about to cross the road when she found a huge crowd gathered in the square.

‘what? Why are there so many people?’

Even at a rough estimate, each of the hundreds of Hunters was checking their equipment.

Where would you like to go for a large-scale raid?

Intrigued, he put off going and headed for the plaza.

“ruler. everyone. Let’s try hard!”

“This time, I will make sure to rank high.”

“Don’t be crazy.”

“Then see you in a bit!”

With the sound of determination, the crowd soon began to dwindle.

how long has it been like that

As many people disappeared, something invisible came into view.

“gate?”

People were entering through the gate.

Taejeong, who was watching them, grabbed one of the hunters in the back row and spoke to them.

“Hey, where is this gate leading to?”

“yes?”

“It’s been a while since I joined.”

“Ahh. Because today we have Global Survival. Now everyone is going in to participate.”

“Global Survival?”

“People from all over the world gather and compete for ranking.”

The woman’s words made Tae-jung even more curious.

“ah. Is there such a thing? What is the difficulty level?”

“Well… There is no particular difficulty, but it comes out moderately according to your level. Of course, the higher you go, the harder it gets. Give it a try. Because I have the return skill, I can get out of there right away if it doesn’t work.”

“If it’s a ranking competition, there will be a reward, right?”

“yes. It goes up to the Hall of Fame for a certain period of time. Depending on the rank, guild buffs also come in. oh It’s time to close soon. I’ll just go.”

Saying that, the woman disappeared into the gate.

“Global survival, Gerard.”

– Yes, master.

“what do you think about it? Would you like to go?”

– I respect your choice.

“Any information about that place?”

– Data does not exist, not where it belongs to the dungeon.

“okay?”

It was not verified whether the woman’s words were true or not, but just before that, many hunters entered without hesitation.

That is to say.

“It’s worth a try.”

Taejeong checked the remaining potion and entered the gate confidently.

At the same time, the background changed and a pure white space appeared.

[Welcome to Global Survival.]

[I will register a nickname to participate in survival.]

[Please tell me the nickname you would like to use.]

“what? Everything is there.”

[You have registered your nickname.]

[What’s your nickname, there’s nothing special about it.]

“What?”

Taejeong, who had registered the unintentional words as they were, looked at the message window with an absurd face.

However, the nickname window had already passed and another window popped up.

[You can make your affiliation private.]

[If you turn it private, you cannot view it except for the guild.]

[Do you want to make it private? yes/no]

“There is no need to inform. Let’s keep it private.”

[Guild name has been changed to private.]

[Soon it will move to the stage of the level section.]

[There’s nothing special. I wish you luck.]

The background distorted again with the last message window.

The place they reached was a very large stone chamber.

“Is it a bit similar to a labyrinth?”

The space was similar to the labyrinth of the recall dungeon I had been to recently.

The only difference is that no matter where you look, there is no exit door.

It was a completely closed space.

A translucent window appeared in the upper left corner of Taejeong, who was looking around curiously.

[Stage-1]

[Clear kill 0/300]

[ranking -]

“Is it enough to catch 300? But where do monsters come from?”

No matter how much I looked around, I couldn’t see any magic circles or portals.

All that catches my eye are the elaborately crafted stone walls and stone floors.

And there were only four huge stone pillars supporting the ceiling.

He didn’t know what it was, but Tae-jeong decided to wait armed for now.

“You’re finally writing. Where, let’s start with this.”

Tae-jung activated the protector armor, a reinforced version of the suit.

Then, a flash of light shone around him, and in an instant, a huge machine mass covered his body.

An unknown steel frame attached to the arms, back, and legs.

It seemed to be three or four meters in size.

“Five. What is this?”

I saw him moving his arms and legs around on a huge scale.

Then, the range of motion of the joints is truly unbelievable.

Naturalness that doesn’t feel awkward at all, as if it were my own body.

“What is this. Crazy, are you a robot?”

He was so amazed that he soon began to summon the remaining skills in turn.

The first thing summoned was the rocket launcher, which was not used in the recall dungeon.

A majestic launcher mounted on his right-left frame.

after. An m61 Super Vulcan cannon was mounted on the top of the right hand, and a huge pipe tube that appeared to be a launcher appeared in front of the hand.

In addition, disk-shaped radio radars were located on the left and right chests, and a huge booster with expandable 8 balls was formed on the lower part of the back.

“What is this, what the hell… … .”

Taejeong couldn’t believe what was right in front of her even though she was looking at it.

Huge weapons and huge equipment on a huge aircraft.

Only the former height was more than 4 meters by eye.

Even if you look at the basic frame alone, it’s a size that overwhelms quite a few medium-sized monsters.

Nevertheless, this huge structure was comfortable as if it were wearing clothes, and there was no sense of strangeness in its movements.

“Wow… Is this a hunter?”

Taejeong, who opened his mouth and stretched out in admiration, soon realized that there were different semi-transparent display windows at the top left and right.

[Turbo Booster]

[Output 0%] [Status: Inactive]

[maximum speed 120km]

[NO CURRENT SPEED]

[Zero 50 (3.5 seconds)]

[current mana 25,651]

[Radio Radar] Fixed Type

[Detectable range 200m]

[Status: normally open]

[Target: Any entity over 2 meters with a biological response]

[number of currently detected objects is 0]

“Is this a radar and that is a booster dashboard or something?”

After roughly grasping it, Taejeong called Gerard to learn how to use it.

“How do I use the booster?”

-If you look at the left thigh frame, there is a lever. Push it all the way down to activate it, and pull it in the opposite direction to keep it inactive.

At Gerard’s explanation, Taejeong pushed the lever on the left all the way down.

[Turbo booster has been activated.]

[Booster enters idle state.]

[Consumes 20 mana per second.]

“great. next?”

-Change the battle mode to multiplayer. The starter is a multiplayer mode change.

“Change multiplayer mode?”

As Tae-jeong recited, the frame that restrained her body fell off and the cockpit rose to the center.

Accordingly, his body also changed from a standing position to a sitting position, and instead of a lowered height, the structure was widened to the side.

“What is this again? My arm is missing, how can I move it?”

-You will see a control stick in front of you.

“ah. Are you controlling it with this in this mode?”

As Gerard said, something that looked like an airplane cockpit caught my eye.

From what looks like a joystick to various buttons on the lever.

It looked complicated, but each part had written names attached, so there was no difficulty in understanding.

“This is the output. this is the start this is the brake What is reverse thrust again?”

Saying that it is better to try it once than to see it a hundred times, Tae-jeong tested the performance of the aircraft by manipulating it one by one.

Fortunately, the operation wasn’t difficult.

It was because there was nothing special about the car, only the steering wheel and no wheels.

“I think we can move roughly like this. You can use this as a weapon. But Gerard.”

– Yes, master.

“Then what mode were you in earlier? Is it robot mode?”

-The status just before was in special warfare mode. It’s a mod that specializes in melee combat.

“okay? There seems to be no difference other than moving.”

– There are pros and cons. In the case of special warfare mode, since you use your body directly, you can achieve a reaction speed that is incomparable to controlling with a joystick. It has a huge lead over multiplayer mode in turning avoidance maneuvers. In addition, since your hands and feet are free, fighting is also possible. This mode is mainly used when encountering a one-on-one powerful enemy. The downside is that the booster efficiency is lower than in multiplayer mode, and the equipment that can be equipped is limited.

“So, the guy with excellent reaction speed goes into special combat melee mode, and when normal monsters come out in packs, he goes into multiplayer mode? I know roughly what you mean.”

Taejeong thought that Gerard’s words made sense.

Literally fast movement speed and fast reaction speed are two different issues.

Anyway, being able to use two modes was an advantage to him.

Depending on the situation, you can choose and use it according to your taste.

“By the way, when is this going to start? I want to try it quickly.”

The visuals of the aircraft were overwhelming, so I couldn’t help but wonder about the performance of the weapons.

how much time had passed

Around the time when waiting feels a bit boring.

A welcome voice echoed through the space.

[Global Survival begins in 60 seconds.]

[The time limit is 10 minutes.]

[59 seconds… 58… 57… … .]

As the final count began, Tae-jung was wary of the surroundings with nervous eyes.

‘ruler. come out quickly I’ll make everything into a honeycomb.’

By the time the count is over.

Beep-! Beep! Beep!

[Bio signals are captured 30m ahead.]

[number of currently held objects 15]

[17]

[21]

[39]

As soon as the radar beeped, a black portal appeared ahead.

At the same time, something that looked like a monster started pouring in swarms.

The number grew exponentially, and in an instant, hundreds of them gathered in large numbers.

[number of currently held objects 300]

It was exactly 300.

The identities of these guys were familiar to Tae-jeong.

A monster with an abnormally large upper body compared to its lower body, with horns attached to both sides of its head.

It was an ogre.

“They say that you can see it only when three generations accumulate virtue, so he was such a common guy.”

I ate at the absurd situation and laughed.

It seems like just yesterday that we were praising the mountain spirits of the rocky mountains.

On the one hand, I could be less worried.

The ogre is a bit exaggerated, because he’s someone you can catch even if you fight with your feet.

Moreover, with this amount, wouldn’t it be possible to get a lot of expensive horns?

Taejeong, who roughly identified them, aimed the Super Vulcan.

“Then, where should I try it?”
