Closed Beta That Only I Played

Chapter 464 - Battle (8)



Chapter 464 – Battle (8)

Despite my fierce attacks, I could not suppress the ruler of the 9th Royal District that was still radiating red energy, as well as the rulers of the 2nd, 3rd, and 8th Royal Districts who were absorbing the red energy emanating from the 9th Royal District ruler.

And when the red energy completely wrapped around their bodies, there was a huge explosion.

Bang!

As the red energy exploded with a roaring sound, one person appeared in the space where the four guys existed a little while ago.

And finally, I felt I might be able to identify who this ruler of the 1st Royal District was. Obviously, I investigated the Royal District rulers thoroughly when I found out I could get huge rewards from killing them. But the one whose information was kept the most secretive even from the people in Kuhana was the ruler of the 1st Royal District. According to the rumors, some said he had four arms, some said he had two heads, and some said he wasn’t human.

In other words, there were few who knew about the ruler of the 1st Royal District unlike the other rulers, so there was lots of speculation about his identity.

But the one who appeared had half his head and body made of lava which was emitting lightning, and his other half looked like an undead. It looked as if he was a mix of the ruler of the 2nd Royal District who dealt with lightning, the ruler of the 3rd Royal District who was called a lava human, and the ruler of the 8th Royal District, an undead monster.

As if to confirm my guesswork, he opened his mouth.

[It’s been a long time since they summoned the ruler of 1st Royal District.]

When he said that, I asked, “What happened to the ruler of the 9th Royal District?”

No matter how hard I scanned him, I could not find any trace of the 9th District Ruler in this monster’s body.

[Ah, he was a sacrifice that they used to summon the ruler of the 1st Royal District. In other words, he was an offering they agreed on.]

“Man, you guys like sacrifices too much!”

Whatever the reason, I hated the word “sacrifice,” so I sneered at him sharply, while examining him very carefully.

Even though it was not surefire, I could normally size up my opponent’s power to some extent.

But I could not figure out this guy at all.

Of course, he would definitely be strong because he was a mix of the three powerful rulers. Given that the 9th district ruler was an offering, it seemed that the 9th District ruler had no value to add.

So I wrapped up my assessment of him right away because I had no intention of wasting away the 30-minute time limit of my limited skill Savant which was currently in effect.

I launched attacks right away.

“Ice Rain! Ice Spear!”

Puck! Puck! Puck! Puck!

Bang!

Of course, he counterattacked as well.

[Thick Wall of Lightning!]

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

To be honest, I have not always been successful in inflicting damage on my enemy. In some cases I failed, and my attacks didn’t work at all. But there had never been a single time when my attack was completely blocked by my enemy like now, which really startled me.

While trying not to dwell on my failure, I was about to attack him again when he attacked me faster.

[Rise! Lava Hell!]

In fact, I had already laid out Ice Field reinforced with Multiple Thin Ice around him.

Of course, the ice terrain was not smashed by his attack in an instant. But I could see sporadic cracks here and there appearing on the ice terrain.

[Wow, you’re pretty strong. Yeah, very strong.]

He seemed to admire the resilience of my Ice Field that could withstand his Lava Hell, but I didn’t like it because I could see the cracks on the ice terrain increasing and shattering as time went by.

So I shouted, “Ice Weapon.”

[You have used level 3 Ice Weapon.

: Cold Ice Energy has been embedded in the +15 Enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword.

: It has the effect of level 9 Ice Weapon by overlapping with the level 6 Ice Weapon built into the +15 Enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword.]

As soon as I used Ice Weapon, I immediately used one skill.

“Blink!”

Shuuuuuuuuuuuuuung!

Puck! Puck!

I moved behind him, and wielded the +15 Enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword. This time, he couldn’t even defend against it.

The +15 Enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword had a powerful option available. It was none other than frostbite, and a fatal one at that.

Pasasasasasak!

In an instant, sharp ice began to form on his body, starting from his back.

But then something shocking happened.

Soon the ice began to melt.

At the same time, the guy shouted.

[Lol. I will admit your skill. How dare you do that? I can imitate it because I am strong enough to throw out lightning. But I really admire your skill like this. Just amazing!]

Of course, I already stepped back before I could overhear what he was talking about.

But I had to move again. This time I had no other choice but to float into the air using Fly because the ice terrain was shattered after resisting for a scant moment.

In an instant, the space where the ice terrain existed was filled with red lava.

[Soar up, Lava Dragon! Echo, Death Cry!]

A dragon made of lava appeared in the lava hell that spread widely in an instant.

Then the dragon immediately opened its mouth wide towards me and breathed out lava.

I shouted, “Ice Shield!”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

I chose to deal with the lava attack by blocking it with Ice Shield, for one of the surest ways to check out the enemy’s capability was to experience their attack directly.

Of course, I didn’t want to simply endure his attacks stupidly, and that’s why I used Ice Shield first.

In any case, my Ice Shield blocked the lava dragon’s attacks several times, which seemed quite powerful.

In the end, my Ice Shield was smashed by the lava dragon’s attack, which then continued on and hit me.

Puck!

“Blink!”

I finished sizing up the power of the lava dragon’s attack with Ice Shield, such as how much damage I would suffer if I was exposed to its attack, or how much my Ice Shield could block it. Since it was more than enough for me to allow for his single attack, I moved to his back using Blink.

‘Well, it’s not that threatening.’

At first, I was a little nervous because I could not size up his level, but when I was done examining his power, I could relax a bit.

To be honest, I knew well how powerful I was. So much so that people often thought my skill was a scam.

Anyway I could not afford to delay because I was currently using my limited skill, Savant. So I immediately opened my mouth.

“Ice Rain! Ice Wave!”

Puck! Puck! Puck! Puck!

I kept attacking him like that. Of course, he didn’t stop counterattacking.

The fierce battle between us continued, shaking the ground.

I was fully aware of my role and duty, given that the fate of the Myongjin Shelter rested on me. And my defeat here would lead to the defeat of not only the Myongjin, Mirae and Tugal Guilds, but also the Antalagos Information Guild. It was no exaggeration to say that my defeat would be regarded as the defeat of everybody on Earth.

Of course, this assessment was not based on arrogance or self-pride. Without me, they would not be able to block the rulers of the Major, Regular, and Rookie districts, let alone the rulers of the Royal Districts..
