Eat With Infinite Saves 389

Chapter 389 – Counterterrorism Test (7)

*

‘Is it fortunate that there are fewer driveways than I thought?’

It’s not that difficult for an awakened person to break through a wall and come in, so I was thinking about how to block such a wide space, but unexpectedly, reinforcement magic circles were hanging on every wall.

The level of the reinforcing magic circle was so high that even if you were determined to destroy it, you would have to consume more magic power than you thought. Well, if you can break through anywhere, it’s bound to be tricky from the standpoint of defense.

Of course, there were parts where there was no reinforcement magic circle, but it seemed to be balanced with this.

Typically, places where the other party can enter are underground parking lots, front entrances, and rooftops.

Other than that, there are about 10 places with many windows, such as cafes.

After figuring out the rough internal structure, he was busy with defense.

“The size of the building is so large that it will be difficult to find if you decide to hide.”

“But they won’t attack without any information, right?”

“First of all, we don’t have much time, so install alarm magic in places where you can invade!!”

If you don’t have information, you’ll have no choice but to hesitate to enter the building. Because the exams are starting and we have time to prepare.

Due to the nature of our team with many magic cadets, we started installing defensive magic in the department store at a rapid pace.

“I can install notification magic, but it’s impossible to unlock all trap magic.”

“It doesn’t matter as long as I can know the intrusion.”

During preparation time, Lim Yu-jin was temporarily leading the magic cadets. It was unethical to move as a party even before it started.

First of all, the size of the building is a large building with 11 floors, starting with lightly applying magic to prevent invasion.

There was everything from luxury stores to living furniture, movie theaters and food courts.

“Then how will the hostages be placed?”

“Can’t we put it in a corner? Can’t find it.”

“Even though it looks like that, it is still alive.”

“I don’t know if I should call it alive.”

They looked like mannequins, but first of all, they were magic golems that moved autonomously.

It was designed to eat and go to the bathroom like a normal person.

It’s probably to prevent it from being hidden in an absurd space like a treasure hunt.

There was an emoticon-like expression on the mannequin-like face, and I could tell about their condition with that.

It was also our responsibility to check the condition of those guys. In short, you have to feed them and take them to the bathroom.

“It would be difficult to defend the entire building anyway. Let’s place it at the top to reduce the area to defend.”

“Then, are you still following the plan?”

“I’m honestly in a position to oppose, but I’m sure you’re there, right?”

“Uh. Then I’ll ask you this way.”

As I was about to go downstairs after giving a request to each party leader, I heard Minji’s voice from behind.

“Kim Si-woo.”

“Huh?”

“You.. Just get hurt again.”

Minji was looking this way with a worried face. It’s a test at the academy, so the instructors are all watching. Do you have no intention of hiding it now?

“It’s a mock battle, but how much can you get hurt? And there is this too.”

I waved her bracelet in front of Minji. As a protective artifact, it was a one-time artifact that was activated when critical damage was confirmed to the user.

If this is activated, it will be automatically eliminated, but for now, the risk of getting fatally injured is low.

“Don’t overdo it, just follow the plan.”

“Okay.”

Sometimes when I look at it, Minji is like my mother.

As soon as the test started, Kim Tae-pung headed toward the entrance.

__Wheeying!! Weeing!!

The sound of the siren echoed terrifyingly as he entered, and Kim Tae-pung, who discovered the magic circle around him, raised his magic power and cut off the structure of the magic circle.

“As expected, it seems that there is only notification magic.”

Four hours is not a short time, but it was understandable because the department store was larger than the number of people.

“I thought there would be someone waiting at the entrance.”

“You wouldn’t have thought of entering through the entrance, would you?”

Who would have expected that they would openly come in through the entrance? The Red Team must have been taken aback as they entered the entrance so quickly.

“Surprisingly, the inside is also properly implemented?”

“It looks like a real department store, except there are no props.”

“There’s no time to look around, let’s all move quickly.”

“Okay.”

The blue team, who infiltrated the department store, naturally assumed that there would be no hostages near the entrance and quickly headed upwards.

“Already found one!”

“Attack right away!”

It was none other than Kim Si-woo who jumped out this way as soon as the alarm sounded.

‘I did, but I didn’t know you would really come…’

Kim Tae-pung, who expected someone to come to buy time, raised the corner of his mouth.

After all, isn’t it a common picture that the strongest person comes to stop it?

If we can defeat Siwoo Kim right here and now, the blue team will really have an advantage.

“Isn’t that Kim Siwoo?”

“Looks like you’re alone, let’s get it right!”

“Well.”

Maintaining such a relaxed expression in front of more than 10 people might be thought of as bluffing, but I have already shown enough.

The ranged cadets attacked Kim Si-woo at the top of the escalator, but they seemed to avoid it with their characteristic quick movements.

“I didn’t expect you to come right away.”

“I thought it wouldn’t work if I gave you time to prepare.”

“Indeed.”

Contrary to the expectation that he would run away, Kim Si-woo rather rushed this way.

“Oh.. Coming!!”

“Is that…The author crazy?!”

No matter how confident he is in his skills, there was Kim Tae-pung, who was ranked 9th. Kim Tae-pung also frowned as if he was being ignored.

‘Blue moon.. Is this the technology I saw then..’

Along with the scenery I saw then, I saw a slash flying towards my teammates. As if it was a technique used with the intention of wiping it all out, its power seemed enormous.

‘That too… In the end it must be the same as magic!’

Kim Tae-pung, who had expected it to some extent, ran straight ahead and raised his sword.

The moment his sword, shining brightly, collided with Kim Si-woo’s Cheongwol Cham, an accident occurred.

“… ?”

Siwoo Kim’s attack split in half and tore the sides apart.

Kim Tae-pung’s unique ability is the ability to cut mana and cut off the structure of mana, and the Cheongwolcham used by Kim Si-woo was no exception.

Because Kim Si-woo’s blow, which had been flying in a straight line, split in half.

“Kyaaaaa!!!”

“What power!!”

Even though Kim Tae-pung succeeded in blocking it, the blue team union belatedly defended using barriers as a shock wave was pushed in the aftermath that remained.

“Whoa… You sure are strong.”

Even though Kim Tae-pung succeeded in cutting off Kim Si-woo’s attack, he admired the shock that was left intact on his arms. Of course, Kim Si-woo was also surprised.

“What did you just do?”

“I think I’m pretty famous too!!”

Kim Tae-pung, who succeeded in defending, immediately rushed at Kim Si-woo.

The two of them exchanging battles with each other, and like the cadets who reigned in the top 10 for a long time, they began to repel Kim Si-woo’s attacks.

After receiving Kim Tae-pung’s sword aiming for Kim Si-woo’s gap and Kim Tae-pung’s sword aiming for the heart, Kim Si-woo immediately counterattacked.

A swordsmanship that uses the opponent’s strength in reverse, but Kim Tae-pung seemed to have expected it as well, falling back as soon as the sword shook.

Because he reacted cautiously, there was no chance to use his power against him. Is 9th really 9th?

When Kim Tae-pung came out passively, rather, Kim Si-woo dug into Kim Tae-pung. In the meantime, Kim Si-woo’s sharp attack, which was made by going through all the battles, flew.

I felt a chill at Kim Si-woo’s blow, which made my conversation cold. I thought it would be on a similar level, but I never thought it would be this sharp.

While one eye was sold for a moment at Kim Si-woo’s swordsmanship, which seemed to perform stunts, Kim Tae-pung felt a tingling sensation on his cheek.

‘Whoa… This must be dangerous.’

When I faced him directly, the swordsmanship felt as solid as a wall. A sharp attack, as if a little careless would cause a fatal wound.

‘Right!’

The moment he defended the sword coming from the right, Kim Si-woo’s sword bent in a strange direction and suddenly began to come in, aiming for an opening.

‘This..!’

The moment Siwoo Kim’s sword was about to reach, an explosion suddenly occurred under Kim Siwoo’s feet.

“Typhoon, are you okay?!”

“Thank you!! That was a good attack!”

“Tsk..”

“Well, this isn’t a one-on-one match. Don’t think I’m cowardly!”

Although his swordsmanship might be inferior to Kim Si-woo, this was not a one-on-one match. I felt my body getting lighter as the auxiliary magic came from behind.

‘If it were the other guys, I would have been eliminated right away.’

I knew Siwoo Kim’s skills were excellent, but I didn’t expect him to be like this. He probably would have been eliminated not long after if he had fought Siwoo Kim alone.

But he wasn’t alone.

He could not defeat Kim Tae-pung, no matter how much Kim Si-woo, when various magic attacks flying toward Kim Si-woo, barriers and various buffs to assist him were added.

In addition, Kim Tae-pung admitted that he was being pushed back and was playing defensively. Because he was determined and chose to defend, he couldn’t see any gaps.

‘Why is he being so defensive?’

There, Kim Si-woo felt something strange.

Why are you being so passive?

It’s like he’s trying to pass the time.

“No way..?”

__Quaaaaang!!! Kwaaang!!!

The whole building started to shake with a roar coming from above.

“Don’t overdo it… Ha ha.”

“Double operation…”

“Because Yang Ji-seok is a guy who cannot be ignored as long as the conditions are met.”

“Your hostage rescue isn’t the goal, is it?”

“Haha. Did you catch it?”

When the RED team is most vulnerable with defensive preparation. Aiming for that time and dropping out.

That was the blue team’s first strategy.
