Chapter 35

The first to fire was the m61 Super Vulcan Cannon, which could be said to be the main weapon.

As the giant barrel rotated, tremendous light energy was mercilessly sprayed toward the monsters.

The monsters in front of them were torn into thousands of pieces and turned to dust by that ignorant firepower, and a huge empty space was formed in the place where they disappeared.

With a single attack, dozens of them had evaporated at once.

It really couldn’t be more powerful.

Power that is on a different level from the m60 that was held and shot by hand.

Taejeong’s mouth opened automatically at the result.

“Are you crazy?”

Although he expected it, Tae-jung, excited by the much stronger attack than he had expected, immediately operated the multiplexer.

Hey profit!

The pipe tube of the radiation cannon, which had been preheated from the main body, was filled with high heat in an instant.

At the same time, a huge flame that was hard to believe even after seeing the thread spewed out fire.

Whoaaa-!

[You have killed the Ogre.]

[Auger… … .]

The power of the flame was so great that it made me curse.

Existing radiators are so far beyond the range that they can be called toys.

The range of flames spread out in a fan shape seemed to exceed 10 meters at a rough glance.

Despite the widening of the field of view on board the aircraft, the front view was completely invisible.

Taejeong, who didn’t even feel the need to move, tried to turn in place while operating the radiator.

Then, the monsters that tried to surround him instantly turned into ashes and scattered.

“Does this make sense?”

Less than a minute after the battle started, the number of monsters that reached 300 had been reduced by half.

Until that happened, all Tae-jung did was to test the weapon once in a while.

It really couldn’t have been a battle that had gone mad.

However, he still had two weapons that he hadn’t used.

“great. Then this time.”

Taejeong aimed the launcher at a place where quite a few monsters were gathered.

At the same time, a rocket was fired from the aircraft’s left hand.

bang!

A group of monsters gathered together with a roar once turned into blood cakes, and the remains scattered in all directions.

Excitement automatically flowed from Taejeong’s mouth at that cool sight.

“This is it!”

The destructive power of the new weapon was beyond what he thought.

This is enough to be able to go to war alone.

Then his Vulcan cannon fired again, and it took only 30 seconds to clear the rest.

[You have completed Stage 1.]

[You have acquired 100 Guild reputation points.]

[You will be given 10 minutes of maintenance time until the next stage.]

[Current section ranking is 7th.]

“It’s so fast, but it’s 7th?”

Taejeong looked at the system window at the top.

1st Step 1 (Complete) [Lonely Wolf]

2nd place 1st stage (Complete) [Gale]

3rd Stage 1 (Complete) [Camila]

4th Stage 1 (Complete) [月淚]

7th 1st stage (Complete) [What’s special]*

811st Stage 1 (Complete) [Hyukjin Kim]

In the system window, a total of 811 people, including him, had cleared the first stage.

Among them, three Koreans were ranked at the top.

The strength in the 300-400 range seemed to be Korean.

Taejeong, who was checking the rankings, was subtly feeling competitive.

Currently, there are a total of 14,000 participants in this section.

How far can he really go?

It couldn’t have been something to look forward to.

“Still, it’s your first experience, so winning first place is impossible, right? Hidden isn’t just me. What kind of hunter are there so many of them?”

14,000 people.

It really couldn’t have been a staggering number.

The problem is that this is only a participant in one section.

If you include participants from all other sections, those who did not participate, and those who could not participate because there was no guild in the first place, the number would increase exponentially.

Probably over 1 million at least.

While waiting, Taejeong checked the status window.

lv301 experience 176,998,000

“Experience has not decreased. There are no items. Is it really a purely reward dungeon?”

Compared to when I first entered, there was almost no difference in experience.

But Tae-jung didn’t care much.

This is because it came as pure fun to compete for rankings with hunters from all over the world.

This isn’t necessarily a measure of strength, but I think we can make a rough comparison.

While I was waiting for the next step to begin, one thing I had forgotten suddenly came to my mind.

There was a skill that hadn’t been tested yet.

[1D anti-personnel mine]

Kill Range [1m]

Destruction in Range – 650

1,200 mana per shot

*Maximum 6 rounds per minute

[Cheonryong-1] lv1 [Multiple rockets]

Sealed speed [500 km/h]

Caliber: 130mm rocket rounds

Range: [3 km]

Killing Range: Radius 100m

Base damage 7,700-12,000

5,000 mana consumed

Up to 12 rounds per minute

“Land mines seem to have poor cost performance. I mean, this multiple rocket launcher looks like it’s going to be huge.”

It was the skill that Taejeong was most curious about since she was with Seolah Han.

Incredible range and killing range, plus incredible destructive power.

Is there any other one-handed class with such overwhelming skills?

Thinking of testing it as soon as the second stage started, Tae-jung summoned the skill in advance.

Then, behind him, a huge pillar the thickness of a telephone pole began to rise.

At the same time, a hologram was formed from the tip of the pillar, and a launch pad was created that overwhelmed the aircraft.

“Wow. what else is this… … .”

Looking at the colossal size of the launching pad created above her head, Tae-jeong wondered if this was really true.

It’s so huge that you can’t even imagine sitting there.

“It’s so big you can’t even see it at first glance.”

Tae-jeong, who had been staring at the bottom of the launch pad, stood up and tried to capture the whole thing with her eyes.

Nevertheless, it is so large that the upper part cannot be seen how it was formed.

Eventually he got down and tried to check it out.

Then Gerard’s beep sounded.

– Do not take your feet off the aircraft.

“Can’t you get off?”

-The moment you take your foot off, the mana supplied to the skill stops, and the aircraft returns to an inactive state.

“Well. I’m sorry about that. Don’t you know what it looks like?”

At Taejeong’s question, Gerard immediately went into an explanation.

– There are a total of 36 launch tubes for the Celestial Dragon multiple rocket launcher. Twelve of these tubes are equipped with normal 130mm energy rockets, and the remaining 24 tubes are equipped with 131mm guided rockets.

“So the launch pad up here has 36 cannon holes.”

-It’s a launch tube.

“That means there are 36 holes. But why are there two types of rockets? There is no such explanation here.”

-131mm Guided Energy Rocket is currently an unacquired skill, and the lower 24 tubes are locked. So, the current launch tubes that the owner can operate are the upper 12 tubes, all of which contain normal rockets.

“There is another skill. hey By the way, this isn’t really a joke, is it? Even the launcher rips everything apart. If it’s this big, won’t it hurt me too?”

-Basically, since the protector armor has a shield, the incoming damage is negligible unless it is fired from close range. For reference, this shield only reacts to energy bullets, so it is separate from the monster’s physical attack.

“okay? But using this won’t cause this place to collapse, right?”

Taejeong, not knowing exactly the destructive power of the weapon, was worried about what would happen if the stone chamber collapsed because of it.

Even the destructive power of 1 or 2,000 units was unbearable, and he could not imagine what would happen if the destructive power of up to 12,000 was reached.

Gerard opened his mouth to tell him not to worry.

-The structure of this stone chamber is not very flimsy. Even if you use it to your heart’s content, the space itself will not collapse.

“okay? Then, let’s use it right away in the next step.”

When Tae-jeong is full of expectations.

Finally, a beep sounded, announcing the next step.

[The second stage will begin after 60 seconds.]

[The time limit is 10 minutes.]

[59 seconds… 58… 57… … .]

Shortly after the notification sounded, a black portal appeared in front again.

An enormous number of monsters popping out at the same time.

With the launch pad lowered to its maximum angle, his hand pressed the fire button.

Then, along with the sound of something taking off, a 130mm rocket shot was fired in a straight line from tube 1.

Shiiik-!

Kwak Kwa Kwak!

With a tremendous roar, hundreds of monsters roaming the front evaporated at once.

The dust that happened at the same time spread out in all directions, and soon the alarm sound started to rain.

[You have killed Aul.]

[Aul… … .]

“How many were there just now?”

-102 dogs.

“crazy.”

Indeed, it could not have been a colossal destructive power.

102 in one room.

But this was just the beginning.

In addition, bullets were fired from the 2nd and 3rd tubes in succession, and the multiple rocket launcher, which opened up to the 5th tube in an instant, wiped out everything around it.

[You have completed Stage 2.]

[You have acquired 500 guild reputation points.]

[You will be given 10 minutes of maintenance time until the next stage.]

[Current ranking is 11th in the section.]

“Coke. Coke. Wow.”

For a moment, he coughed repeatedly at the dust that filled the stone chamber.

His eyes widened, he muttered as he checked the rankings.

“Is it still 11th? How fast do people on top of me catch them?”

Although he caught it faster than the first stage, it was Taejeong who fell further in the ranking.

But I wasn’t too disappointed.

11th out of 14,000 people.

This alone was a huge achievement for him.

“Rather than that, it seems to increase by 100 as the level goes up, but the clear kill is 400, but why is the radar showing the final 350?”

This is what Taejeong asked as he alternately looked at the display and the number of kills achieved on the stage.

Then Gerard immediately gave an answer.

-That’s because of the size and structure of the radar. The radar skill currently being used by the owner is a 1st generation prototype, and the range is narrow, and it is difficult to detect if there are obstacles. In particular, the radio signal is weak, so there is a chance that monsters behind you will not be caught in the overlapping section.

“Well. Is it old-fashioned? Well, it’s not very useful anyway. It may not be useful for preventing surprise attacks at a very short distance… yes?”

Taejeong, who was talking with Gerard, fixed her gaze somewhere.

“That… … .”

What he was seeing was a collapsed stone wall ahead with a huge hole in it.

He hit five rockets in succession.

What was invisible due to the thick dust had settled down and now came into view.

“what? Was there room on the other side?”

Taejeong, who was curious, went straight toward the hole.

And let’s go inside.

[The third stage has begun.]

[The ranking will change.]

[Current ranking is 1st in the section.]
