Became an Academy Spearman - Chapter 763
763. [Western Front] – 3rd Class Apostle Black Ogre (39)
***
“Battle ready!”
Hearing Roxanna’s powerful voice, Cheonseong headed straight to his position, following the formation he had learned countless times yesterday and today.
Good!
As I got down to the right end, I naturally raised the spear I had taken out. The battle stance was a formation in which each person maintained his or her position and eliminated various variables.
As they each took their positions with Roxanna in the center, an apostle not far away responded to their energy.
ㅡ3rd grade apostle black ogre.
As soon as the red wing platoon recognized the apostle, the apostle ogre was also quickly approaching them as if it was traversing the red zone with its huge body.
thud… ! Coo… … !
The earth shakes loudly with every step.
‘This is a level 3 apostle.’
It was difficult to get used to seeing the black-skinned ogre, which was as big as the third floor of a building, with my own eyes.
The blunt piece of metal held in one hand was like the framework of a huge building in itself, and its massive arms were heavy enough to easily grab a tall man.
And while watching it, I felt it again.
‘It’s different.’
In the past, I used to feel a unique sense of intimidation when I encountered an apostle.
It felt like every hair on my body was standing on end, and I also felt an indescribable sense of crisis, as if death was just around the corner.
As if my instincts were giving me a strong signal to somehow escape from the apostle.
But that wasn’t the case anymore.
I felt it when I met the apostle a few days ago, but it wasn’t at the level where I felt a sense of life-threatening danger. It’s not that the power of the gigantic apostle in my eyes is weak… … .
It meant that my level now has risen significantly.
Coo… … !!
It was a moment when the air in the red zone shook strangely with the movement of the ogre.
“Han Tiansheng! “Rather than trying to cause damage, focus more on understanding the ogre’s movements!”
I responded strongly to Lieutenant MacPhil’s loud voice.
“yes!”
It was almost the same moment I answered.
Krraaa!
The ogre’s roar engulfed the entire space as it approached.
“… !”
The overwhelming sound that even shook the air enveloped my entire body in mana at once, and although my ears rang loudly from the roar, there was no major damage.
Coo!
From noble mtl dot com
Immediately after that, the ogre moved its huge legs as if it would crush us, and at the same time, we spread out into separate formations.
Swish!
Even though it was moving quickly, I kept my eyes on it calmly.
‘It’s not that slow.’
Considering the black ogre’s huge body, its movements seemed rather fast. Still, the weaknesses seemed more obvious to me.
‘Ankles and the crook of the back of the thighs.’
The muscles of the lower body looked grotesquely strong as they supported the massive body, but even so, they were parts that could easily lose balance compared to other parts.
ㅡ!
Immediately after, Ensign Roxanna kicked off the ground and flew into the air, and my eyes saw various powers tailored to each formation.
What was particularly impressive was Lieutenant Elphie’s strength, and her stance seemed to be aimed at the ogre’s arm. No matter how you look at it, the concentration of blue mana in that hand, as if he was trying to snipe while supporting one hand with the other, was a posture that was close to sniping.
‘Does it have that kind of characteristic?’
While thinking about this, I also put a spiral in the window.
Saaa… … !
The moment a huge rushing spiral wrapped around the blade of the spear, the energy of the spiral surged through my body, further enhancing my physical abilities.
Paang!
At the same time, with an explosion that exploded the air, Ensign Elphy’s hand hit the ogre’s arm, which was trying to swing the pillar, directly.
Coo!
The moment the staggered ogre roared loudly and its eyes glowed fiercely, Ensign Roxanna raised both hands and unleashed her power as if striking the ogre’s huge ribcage.
Kwasik!
As the ogre’s strong skin twisted under her strength, a painful roar shook the air again.
Meanwhile, I was inadvertently amazed.
‘This is a complete sum centered on Ensign Roxanna.’
As Lieutenant McPhill said, rather than trying to cause damage, I was focusing on the ogre’s movements and the sum of the platoon members.
Ensign Elphy’s assistant, Ensign Roxanna’s attack, Ensign Rune, who formed a formation to protect Ensign Elphie, and Ensign McPhill, who maintains the current formation and subdues monsters… … .
It was almost a perfect combination.
And that’s me too… … It was no different.
Sigh! Chop rock!
The blood gushing out as they swept away the rapidly attacking group of bloody orcs, as if killing them in one fell swoop, decorated their vision.
“… … under.”
At that moment, an involuntary laugh escaped me.
In fact, the ogre’s roar itself was no different from a ‘buster call’.
Noticing that numerous monsters in the red zone were flocking here at once, I realized that the execution of the apostle was not simply an execution of only the apostle.
‘The execution of the spider apostle last time was something unusual.’
The apostle, who possesses enormous power, immediately draws the surrounding monsters to him. I don’t know if they were drawn to Apostle, or if they gathered there because they perceived us as enemies, but they couldn’t just focus on Apostle.
Even as I was killing all the monsters coming at me from all directions, my consciousness was always focused on the apostle.
Ensign Roxanna’s attack and Ensign Elphy’s sniping as an assistant continue to show mana.
And in the meantime, Ensign Rune and Ensign McPhill maintained their formation with strange strength and eliminated the incoming monsters, but I felt that the mission was not as easy as I thought.
‘Even if it was the same mission, the number of people who could focus on the apostle was limited.’
Even if the power of the surrounding monsters was not that strong, being surrounded on all sides meant that the situation itself was dangerous.
Therefore, it was necessary to distinguish between those who would maintain the formation and be in charge of the apostles, and those who would be in charge of the monsters that would attack them around them.
Swish!
While avoiding the sudden rush of pitch black liquid, the corners of my eyes naturally became blurred.
‘Plus, there are monsters that attack from a distance.’
I had to be much more careful and careful.
In fact, Lieutenant McPhill was nearby, but that didn’t mean he was supporting me or even taking charge of the monsters heading towards me.
That gaze that occasionally winked seemed to be speaking to me silently.
Since you have entered the front line like this, do your part properly… … .
Shoo! Sigh!
He immediately pierced the green gargoyle’s neck with his spear and kicked the ground as if passing by.
ㅡㅡㅡ!
A body wrapped in a spiraling wind accelerates infinitely and lightly moves across the red-stained ground.
‘Let’s act calmly.’
Even though the situation was completely different from before and seemed to be pushing me in many ways, I tried to keep my head cool.
Sigh! Suddenly!
While focusing on piercing the monster’s neck and head, sometimes it sweeps through the space and kills the oncoming horde of goblins.
The body is extremely light.
Even though it is a red zone, the spiraling body moves across the ground without any restrictions.
The eerie sensation of my spear cutting through blunt skin, piercing the flesh and bones inside at once, and the sense of slaughter welling up in my hands for a long time, I suddenly became aware of the situation.
‘Things are going smoothly, even if it’s not that easy.’
Wow!!!
Occasionally, a huge pillar containing an ogre would slam into the ground, exploding with noise and dust, but never once did it hit any of us.
Paang!
Ensign Elphie’s sniping-like support like now clearly twisted the direction of the Ogre’s attack, and each time it hit the ground unexpectedly, the Ogre’s body, whose posture was shaken, was completely damaged by Ensign Roxanna’s oppressive power. I order it to go.
Sigh!
Even as I pierced the eye of the relatively large Cyclops with a single spear, I felt a blunt repulsion in my hand.
‘The flesh is hard.’
Even though it was a spear with a fairly strong spiral, it did not feel like it could easily penetrate the flesh of large monsters.
Tuk! Swish!
As soon as I landed on the ground, I shook off the thick green blood that had stuck to the blade of the spear.
“Whoa.”
And I took a deep breath as I saw a group of monsters pouring in from afar. I guess I should say that they are endlessly flocking around the Apostle Ogre, but I changed my mind a little.
While killing monsters, almost all of my attention was focused on learning the ogre’s movements.
And now… … .
‘I can be sure.’
My spear can create a huge crack that will instantly destroy the slowly collapsing body of an ogre.
As soon as I thought about it, I kicked the ground.
Good!
And at the same time, he accelerated rapidly and pierced through the monsters that filled his field of vision with his spear as if slaughtering them.
Shashashak… … !
As I passed by the monsters in front of me in one go, as if massacring them, I became more determined.
‘We need to increase the power of the spiral.’
I felt my spear stop momentarily due to the flesh of the monster, which was not an apostle like Cyclops. Then, the flesh of the apostle ogre would probably have to contain much stronger force to pierce it with my spear.
‘No matter how much the spear is made of mithril… … .’
I couldn’t ignore the Sado’s characteristic of being physically hard. Therefore, much greater power was needed.
The spear blade had to be sharpened to pierce the hard flesh in one go.
Saaa… … !
As the spiral surrounding the spear blade swirled more intensely as if responding to my will, I felt the distance gradually narrowing.
The Black Ogre’s attention was already completely focused on Ensign Roxanna and Ensign Elphy, and its blood-red eyes were never directed at me.
Slurp!
While sliding across the red zone in a spiral that wrapped its entire body, I was finally able to get behind the Black Ogre.
Because the ogre’s body was so large, it was necessary to kill more than twenty monsters just to catch it.
Kwaaang!!
A huge shock wave enveloped the space due to the tyranny of the ogre, which seemed to hit the ground and collapse the space.
Sararak!
Through the fluttering hair, I suddenly made eye contact with Ensign Roxanna, who was a distance away.
“… … .”
“… … .”
Her characteristic of suppressing the atmosphere was such that she could even fly, and the sight of her holding herself upright even in the huge shock waves of the atmosphere was the height of mystery, and the moment her eyes turned to mine, I slightly nodded.
And when her head nodded slightly… … .
I kicked the ground without hesitation.
‘now!’
Although it is said that the skill was not developed, the spiral was continuously circulated and stayed on the spear blade, so the spiral that stayed on the spear blade was already no different from a storm.
And I felt so fortunate that I was now a master of spearmanship.
‘It would have been almost impossible with a sword.’
Even if it were a sword made of mithril, it would be difficult to even carve a wound on the body of an ogre whose body was so strong.
But it wasn’t me. A spear that focuses all its power on one point.
And the fleeting power of the spear cannot be defeated by any weapon. If only I had the power of my spiral to sharpen the sharpness of the spear blade… … !
Fuuuk!!
Even though he pierced the back of the ogre’s left thigh, the crook of his neck, which could be said to be a vital area, he was forced to withstand the intense load that was applied to his hand.
The meat was ridiculously hard.
As the splendidly fluttering spirals vividly decorated my vision, I swallowed a sigh of relief without realizing it.
‘What muscles… … !’
Could it be this ridiculously hard?
I pierced the ogre’s left leg with all my might, intending to pierce the storm-filled spear blade.
However, even though I succeeded in piercing the outer layer, the muscles inside the skin were so hard that I could not pierce it.
Krraaa!!!
When it let out a loud scream that shook the air violently, I quickly pulled out the spear blade and kicked the ogre’s leg with all my might.
Wow!!
As soon as I managed to escape, I saw an ogre sitting down in the space. As I was floating in the air in a daze, an eerie feeling filled my heart.
‘This is a level 3 apostle… … ?’
Of course, my spear a moment ago could not be said to be the full force of my power. That’s because I didn’t develop skills and openings.
However, in a situation where those two were not used, the spear, which could be considered full power, could not completely pierce the apostle’s body.
Even though it didn’t penetrate all the way through, it had to be considered that it barely caused any significant damage since it was a vital area.
“… … .”
I spun around and landed on the ground, looking at the ogre’s dark red blood on the spear blade.
Wow!
He calmed his breathing as the ogre’s blood spilled onto the ground around him.
Before I could catch my breath, the monsters around me were already rushing towards me again.
“I guess this is the beginning… … .”
I mumbled absentmindedly as I lifted up the spear again after shaking off the blood.
-As a benefit.
It was truly just beginning.
