Genius Is Taught by Geniuses - Genius Is Taught by Geniuses chapter 133
133 – Dungeon of the Constellation (3)
The dark night, where even the moon hid itself in the clouds.
In the middle of a quiet and rugged mountain range, a blue light flashed and 12 dolls appeared.
When they arrived by teleport, most of them broke their backs and started vomiting.
“Wow, hey, hey!”
“Oops!”
These were the constellation dungeon raid members.
After experiencing teleporting 9 times in a row, they were all out of their minds.
Only Tigris, Bergang, and Amoris, who were strong enough, were able to stand with their feet on the ground, while everyone else collapsed and vomited or even fainted.
In particular, Bastian’s skin turned dark and collapsed.
“Lie down comfortably. It is safe here.”
A week ago, the Golden Knights, Inquisitor Agents, and Healers, who had departed first to ensure the safety of the final destination, laid down in the tent carrying the fallen crew members.
“One or two….”
Trisha didn’t know if it was because of her superhuman spirit or if it was her responsibility, but she got up and tried to count the number of people.
Tigris said, gently pressing Trisha’s forehead.
“Stop resting. I’ll check the status of the crew.”
Trisha nodded at Tigris’ words and passed out.
Tigris checked the status of the crew.
First of all, Team A, Nadal and Rakan.
The two were drinking the potion the Inquisitors gave them.
“How are you?”
“I’ve done multi-teleport nine times in a row, and that’s pretty good.”
Nadal answered Tigris if he had the energy to speak, and Rakan barely nodded.
To be honest, I was worried that Rakan would be able to stand it, but he said he invested points in his stamina, but thanks to that, his condition was better than expected.
Perhaps after a good rest today, your body will return to normal.
Next was Team C.
Trisha had just checked the condition, so she had to check on Rain Rover.
As Tigris was about to head towards the tent where the Rain Rover was, Bergang was coming out.
“The princess is in good shape.”
As expected, Bergang seemed to have checked the condition of the Rain Rover first.
Still, I wanted to see it with my own eyes, so I tried to enter the tent, but Bergang blocked it.
“The Princess doesn’t really want to see you.”
“Why are you doing this?”
“You are vomiting right now. Don’t forget that Princess Rain Rover is also a woman.”
When I looked up, I could hear a faint sound of nausea from inside the tent.
He knew better than anyone else that Rain Rover always wanted to show his good side to Tigris, so Tigris decided to pass Rain Rover’s tent.
Next was the tent with Charlotte, Irene and Linia.
Charlotte and Irene were holding jars one by one and vomiting.
Being alert was a good sign.
If they drink the potion and get enough rest, they’ll wake up tomorrow morning.
But Linia was a little different.
Linia had a healer attached to her, and she was developing healing magic.
“How is Linia’s condition?”
“There is nothing wrong with the overall physical condition. You’ll probably be fine as long as you get enough rest. The problem is, I can’t say for sure when that will happen.”
“You mean we have to wait until tomorrow morning?”
“Yes. That’s right.”
Like Rakan, Linia has the weakest physical level.
So I was worried that I would be able to withstand the multi-teleport, but it seems that I was knocked out by a huge shock at the 9th multi-teleport.
To be honest, being able to withstand multiple teleports 9 times with Linia’s body was also great.
It is said that she increased her stamina through the ability of the Rakaniya system, but Linia was able to survive purely with her personal physical and mental strength.
If Linia suffers like this and cannot enter the dungeon of the constellation, she will fall into a great heartache.
Tigris said to the healer who was working hard to revitalize Linia’s body.
“I wish you well.”
“Just leave it to me.”
Tigris took Linia’s hand once and left the tent.
Next was the tent with Nemesis and Conch.
They both thought they would be in a bad health, but Nemesis and Sora were drinking bread and water, not a potion.
“I don’t want to have a dog-like experience like this again.”
“me too. In the future, even if you die, you will not experience teleport magic. I’d rather run on all fours.”
The two of them were in the best condition I’ve ever met.
It was also said to be the strongest beast for a body.
Tigris headed to the tent where Amoris was.
Amoris yawned and lay on the field bed.
“Are you worried about me? Am I not that old?”
“I just came to check on the status. Are you all right?”
“I’m fine, so go see Bastian. Because he’s completely dead.”
At Amoris’ words, Tigris headed to the tent where Bastian was.
There were as many as three healers attached to the tent Bastian was in.
Bastian’s condition didn’t look really good on the outside.
“How is Bastian-sama’s condition?”
A healer opened his mouth with a serious expression.
“It’s not very good. At least one month… No, I think you will have to recuperate at Fog Wood for at least two months.”
Multi-teleport magic consumes a lot of mana in the body.
No matter how fast he consumed mana potions and meditated, he used multiple teleports 9 times in a row, so there was no way his body was left behind.
Tigris checked Bastian’s body.
There was very little mana remaining in Bastian’s body, so he was in a state of mana exhaustion and could not breathe properly.
If the healer had not cast artificial respiration magic, he would have suffocated.
I expected it to be hard on my body, but I didn’t expect it to get this bad.
‘It was too rushed.’
As Bastian was wandering through death like this, Tigris was not in a good mood.
Wouldn’t it have been better if we had left a little more time to move?
As regret began to wrap around Tigris’ body, someone tapped Tigris’ shoulder.
“Sir Tigris.”
It was Berg.
“Let’s talk for a second.”
Tigris and Bergang left the tent.
The rising moon, obscured by the clouds, appeared, illuminating the dark forest.
Bergang got out of the tent a bit and headed to a nook.
He seemed to have a secret story to share.
“At first, I was very concerned about whether or not to disclose it, but I just received an intelligence from the Inquisitor.”
“What kind of spy?”
Bergan hesitated for a moment and then opened his mouth.
“You know Beowulf is coming down to the ecliptic on a train right now, right?”
Tigris nodded.
“Yes. I know. You must have left by now. Did something happen to the train?”
“It’s not a train problem… As you know, the best of the Inquisitor agents and the Golden Knights were secretly escorting Beowulf. But yesterday the escorts all died just before boarding the train.”
Tigris’ expression hardened in an instant.
“How did you die?”
“The bones and muscles were fine, but they all died of a concussion.”
Tigris immediately found out who the culprit was.
“Rota’s ear vibrato.”
The ability of vibrato was the ability to amplify or cancel all kinds of waves.
Although he is said to be blind, he is a high-level 7th circle archmage, so if he uses magic with his wave ability, he could cause a massacre or assassinate quietly like now.
“Do you know how he killed only secret escorts?”
“He has the ‘Abyssal Eyepatch’. It is a holy relic that discovers the secrets that humans most want to hide. Perhaps that ability was used to uncover the identities of the secret escorts.”
“It’s all been done to you because of that damn holy thing.”
Berggan nervously struck the tree with his fist.
In autumn, the dry leaves that had not yet fallen fell down.
Berghan took a deep breath and opened his mouth.
“I’m sorry I didn’t call you for this. You would be most upset.”
“······no.”
“Anyway, because of this, His Majesty the Emperor has issued an order to me as an emergency. You told me to go escort Beowulf right now. And he gave you a choice.”
Berggan looked at the tent in the distance for a moment and then opened his mouth.
“Should I give up the constellation dungeon and go to Beowulf? Or trust me and decide whether to attack the dungeon of the constellation.”
Tigris looked at the tent with a serious expression.
For this attack, Bastian had to recuperate for two months, and Trisha stayed up all night for almost three months to prepare for the attack.
Here, when Tigris goes to the train to save Beowulf, all these hardships will be in vain.
And the engagement ceremony and Schubert, which will be held a week later, are all messed up.
‘three days. If you only survive for three days…’
Three days is enough.
As long as Beowulf is alive for three days, there is a way to save him somehow.
But can you survive those three days?
“What are you worrying about?”
Then, a doll appeared in the moonlight.
It was Amoris.
“You come right out of the constellation dungeon. Your father will leave it to me.”
the next morning.
All the raiders, including Tigris, stood in front of the dungeon of the constellation.
Although Linia’s condition was the most worrisome, Linia recovered her condition faster than expected, and got up after shaking her body.
Charlotte looked around and carefully asked Tigris if he noticed something strange.
“Sir Bergang, where have you been, Amoris-sama?”
“He left because of an urgent business.”
Currently, the only people who know that Beowulf is dangerous are Tigris and Trisha, the leader of the raid.
Trisha knew only that Beowulf was in a very dangerous state, but did not know the exact circumstances.
Trisha approached Tigris and spoke softly.
“It is not too late now. Sir Tigris.”
It meant that he could stop attacking the dungeon of the constellation even now.
or delay it.
Tigris spoke as bluntly as possible.
“It has already been decided.”
Tigris decided last night to attack the dungeon of the constellation.
If the witch who sealed the demon king and the best sword master of the empire couldn’t solve it, Tigris couldn’t solve it even now.
So Tigris had no choice but to trust the two.
Trisha nodded as Tigris’ eyes did not waver.
There is nothing as dangerous as falling out of vain thoughts while conquering the dungeon, but Trisha believes in Tigris.
Tigris will do his job well enough.
Trisha stood on a suitable rock, looked down at the crew, and opened her mouth.
“Before entering the dungeon of the constellation, I would like to say one last thing. The most important thing in the dungeon is your body. Even if the comrade next to you is dead or seriously injured, as long as you let them know with the signal you gave them, you can take action. If you decide you can’t save your allies, relentlessly discard them and activate the beacon to connect with other nearby allies. Do you know?”
All the crew nodded at Trisha’s eerie advice.
Death in the dungeon of the constellation is not real death.
Rather, if you attack the dungeon of the constellation after being seriously injured or killed in the dungeon, that person will cross a river of no return.
Therefore, it was unconditionally important to quickly inform the surroundings of the situation and quickly decide whether to restart the dungeon attack or not.
Trisha took out a starry sky ball from the subspace pocket.
“From now on, let’s get into the dungeon strategy of the constellation. Everyone, follow me.”
Trisha headed to the small cave that was the entrance to the dungeon of the constellation.
People followed Trisha one after another, and Tigris was the last to follow, tucking Perschen and Adne necklaces around her neck into her clothes.
The entrance to the cave was dark enough that even sunlight could not enter, but thanks to the light magic created by Rain Rover, Nadal and Rakan, visibility was not obstructed.
And strangely, the deeper I went, the more a strange dark blue light began to illuminate my vision.
After entering a certain depth, the inside of the cave was lit up bright enough to be able to see ahead without the need for light magic.
“Wow······.”
Nemesis opened his mouth wide and exclaimed.
Deep inside the cave was a beautiful universe.
As a comet passed Sora’s, Sora reflexively stretched out her hand toward the comet, but nothing was caught.
“really pretty······.”
While everyone was looking at the entrance to the dungeon of the constellation with a hazy expression, Trisha read the star letters written at the entrance of the dungeon.
[Hopefully an alchemist who walks the path of magic can pass.]
Usually, the mage’s path refers to wizards of circle 4 or higher, but in the era when Regius lived, they were called mages from circle 5 to wizards.
Therefore, only the alchemists of the 5th circle were qualified to enter the dungeon of this constellation.
Trisha said to the crew, who were staring blankly at the entrance to the dungeon of the constellation.
“This is the entrance to the dungeon of the constellation. Now, before we go in, I will give you the blessing of the stars.”
Trisha muttered a little after stroking the starry sky map slowly.
“Relax the eons of time.”
Then the celestial map shone brightly, and a dark blue mass of light permeated Trisha.
That was the blessing of time warping, which is one of the abilities of star maps.
If you receive the blessing of the celestial bead’s time distortion, your body will remain intact no matter how long you spend in the dungeon, and the difference between the time spent in the dungeon and the time spent in the dungeon will be up to 10 times wider.
Without the ability of this celestial map, this dungeon attack would not have been possible.
Trisha grabbed the blue chunks and began to hand them over one by one.
It penetrated Nadal and Rakan at the front, and passed a lump of light to Tigris at the back.
As the blue starlight drifted across her body up to Tigris, Trisha tucked the celestial map into her subspace pocket.
“From now on, we will hold hands and go through together. Even if the space is cramped, I walk with my feet as close as possible.”
If you do not pass through the dungeon at the same time as Nadal, you may be thrown out of the dungeon of the constellation.
Then there was no way to enter the dungeon of the constellation, so it was important to enter at the same time.
With Nadal standing in the center, starting with Trisha and Rakan next to them, 12 people stood side by side and held hands.
“Then I will leave.”
At Trisha’s signal, I walked towards the night sky.
Countless stars and galaxies, comets and shooting stars pass through my hair and cheeks.
So 12 people entered the dungeon of the constellation.
* * *
“Hoguk-gyeong!”
The sound of steel boots hitting the marble can be heard from behind.
is a knight
Tigris looked back.
The knight with his brown beard neatly groomed was looking at Tigris.
“All preparations for the sacrifice are finished.”
Only then did Tigris have the strength to look around.
Tigris was on top of a large fortress.
Below the citadel, young women in handcuffs with chains knelt and prayed.
“Hoguk-gyeong! We did nothing wrong.”
“Please save me! Truly, I never stole bread!”
“If I get caught, what will my single mother do? please! Please save me!”
Tigris knew what was going on.
The background of the dungeon of the Iron-Blood Heart is the Kingdom of Male.
The kingdom of Male was ruled by nearby giants, who made absurd demands to feed 20 young women each month.
The kingdom of Male had no power to fight the giants, so they would capture sinners and send them to the giants.
Perhaps these women are sacrifices to giants.
Tigris looked silently at the twenty prisoners in handcuffs.
Tigris knew that they were not mere sinners.
They were simply sinners made to offer sacrifices of twenty each month.
“Hoguk-gyeong! Please save me!”
“These bitches must be right to wake up!”
At that time, when a soldier tried to hit the woman’s head with a club, the new form of Tigris disappeared.
“Uh-huh!”
Tigris came down in the blink of an eye and grabbed the soldier’s neck as he was about to strike the club and lifted it up.
Tigris’ expression was as bloody as a demon.
“Ho-Guk-Kyung Ho!”
Tigris calmed down his mind when the crew was next to him.
If you reveal these seething emotions, the other crew members will be embarrassed.
But now it was different.
Tigris exhaled life to his heart’s content.
Then the soldiers and knights around them all trembled and knelt down.
In particular, the soldier holding Tigris’s hand rolled his eyes and bit the foam.
Tigris said looking down at the soldiers and knights who looked at him with fearful eyes.
“From now on, those who disobey my orders will be torn to death.”
As Beowulf’s life was at risk, Tigris could not afford to spend much time in this dungeon.
