Hidden Sanity at Villain School - Chapter 86
Only Noblemtl
(086)
Most of the medium-sized demons were located in cavities where several passages intersected.
The area around the gate was completely dry because over a thousand students had already swept through it.
‘Everyone gather together.’
As soon as Je Seo-cheon took control of the Demon Sect, he gathered all the eight factions together and took control of the area.
And a toll fee of 1 point was charged to each student who tried to go deeper.
Of course, not only did they not collect a toll from Sega, Sang-eon, and Dana, but they also acknowledged their stake first and gave them a huge amount of points.
“That way, I’m a kid.”
Iljinrim laughed bitterly again.
“Shouldn’t we do that too?”
Lee Gyeom made a face that said he still had regrets, and Joo Da-hyun answered harshly.
“He can mobilize almost the entire class, so he can handle the aftermath, but if we did that, Joohyeok would be excited and come raiding because he has an excuse to fight Sega. Let’s just hunt.”
“Yes. Yes.”
Lee Gyeom nodded roughly and threw the large paper cup he had been eating instant soup in on the floor.
“Can I just throw that away here? This gate is also new.”
Sega asked.
“Hmm. The paper cups sold at Shinseoul stores are made of a biodegradable material, so they’re fine. They’ll disappear without a trace after three or four days if exposed to oxygen.”
Lee Gyeom nodded.
“Pick it up anyway. There’s no need to leave evidence that someone was here.”
“Oh my. Don’t worry about it. Who would want to attack a group that has Sega?”
“You might attack without knowing it’s there. Anyway, pick it up. Even if it’s easily disassembled, this isn’t a disposal gate.”
Joo Da-hyun shot back sharply.
“Okay, okay.”
Lee Gyeom grumbled as he filled the paper cup with water, sealed it in an airtight bag, and put it in his bag.
It was a measure taken to avoid giving off a smell.
“Okay. Shall we go again?”
“Yeah. We should go deeper too.”
Group 8 grabbed the motion detector and walked back into the cave.
There were signs here and there that other students had fought with the demon.
“Dahyun. By the way, what is this disposal gate you mentioned earlier?”
Sega thought of an unfamiliar word and asked.
When I asked her questions about things she didn’t know about the industry, Dahyun would scold me as if I didn’t know, but she would also answer in great detail.
“Before closing the unprofitable gate, we should dump all the toxic waste that costs a lot of money into it and then close the gate. Then, we can dispose of all the waste that is too dangerous to leave on Earth in another world.”
Just like now.
“You’re smart.”
“Hey! Didn’t you know I’m smart?”
“No. People.”
“Ah. Me too. Yeah. I have to use it somehow.”
Group 8 headed deep into the gate, engaging in a pointless conversation.
The magical power gradually grew stronger, and the surrounding demons also became stronger.
Now, if you catch a small demon, you get about 2 or 3 points, and some medium-sized demons are up to 10 meters tall.
“Sega.”
In the meantime, this man found a demon of a form he had never seen before in a wide open space.
“What is that?”
“Hell thorn bug. That would be over 300 points. Even if the four of us split it, it would be 75 points. Isn’t it worth a try? Of course, the magic stone would be worth hundreds of millions.”
The hell thorn bug looked like a cross between a turtle, a spider, and a crab, but it had a thick carapace that was incomparable to that of a snake mantis.
Although its body length was smaller than that of a snakehead, its size was several times larger.
“Let’s discuss it with the kids first.”
The structure of Article 8 was the opposite of the original situation.
“There’s no answer to collecting 1 or 2 points. Now, the kids are all coming to their senses and are actively taking action. The number of small demons is decreasing rapidly. In the end, to win, you have to fight people or take risks.”
This gentleman wanted to hunt after tasting the point of a medium-sized demon.
“That’s a form I’ve never seen before, and I don’t know what kind of abilities it might have. Besides, there were signs of combat around it. Others have tried it and failed. It’s not like I’ve fought a snake mantis before, so why bother catching a beast I’ve never seen before?”
On the other hand, Joo Da-hyun insisted that since she had already collected enough points, she should now hunt steadily.
“I’m hunting, let’s catch that thing. I don’t want to go back.”
Iljinrim chose to hunt, and the three of them turned their gazes toward Sega.
‘In the end, I had to make the decision.’
Sega said, living up to the expectations of his team members.
“How about trying a challenge? But if it seems a little too much, then run away immediately.”
* * *
Sega first installed a motion detector at the common entrance.
The groups that were hunting humans always targeted students who were exhausted after hunting.
“No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think it’s true.”
Joo Da-hyun prepared the telekinesis, and Lee Gyeom and Il Jin-rim prepared to help him by pouring out firepower.
Hurrruk!
Sega blazed a black aura and approached the hell thorn bug that was in the middle of the room.
The demon moved its body like a chariot and its red eyes glowed.
‘Cat in the brain, passion.’
Sega used the technique by placing two fingers of his left hand on his temple.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
My heart was pounding hard, and a cool smile appeared on my lips.
Moderate as a ray of heat, fierce as a fire.
The blue sphere floating above the palm cried as if it would burst at any moment.
“under!”
Sega threw a fireball, and a huge explosion occurred above the Hellthorn’s head.
-!
Amidst the blinding blue flames and the pleasant ringing in my ears, the demons, bewildered by the undying fire, thrust their thick legs into the ground.
Boom! Boom!
Sega smiled leisurely, his red eyes flashing.
‘Shall we go?’
Could it be because of the cat-in-the-brain surgery?
It was strangely enjoyable to catch the beast and cut and break its shell.
At that moment, Lee Gyeom’s shout was heard from behind.
“SEGA! Underfoot!”
bang!
The next moment, a thorn as thick as Sega’s torso exploded out.
“!”
Sega jumped up and dodged, stepping on the power platform.
At that moment, a second and third thorns sprouted around Sega.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
[92%]
[73%]
It was so powerful that even a simple brush would cause the stamina gauge to fly away.
At the same time, dozens of small demons crawled out from other passageways in the common area.
Slimy larvae, flat worker beetles, locust-like attack bugs… … .
“Yeah. I knew it.”
This is why Aekmun Joo Da-hyun shot the Yeomdong Matan.
“Focus and finish quickly!”
“okay!”
Taat!
Sega made a big comeback by using the lightning technique bio-current amplification.
As always, I observed my surroundings and was on guard, and I caught a glimpse of holes drilled into the ground with thorns sticking out.
‘It would be better not to step on the ground at all, even if it costs mental power.’
Once again, he unleashed his Power Platform & Bio-Current Amplification and leaped towards the Demon’s head.
‘Let’s finish it in one go.’
Linked suction and medium waves.
From the back of his hand to his forearm and down to his neck, veins bulged blue, and a blue shockwave rippled from the sword like waves.
The boy hunter leapt down like an owl stalking its prey, and the demonic beast erected countless tentacles like a wall.
Paaaaaaaah-!
The shockwave of the sword energy burst out, snapping the tentacles like rotten corn stalks.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
However, the tentacles continued to sprout like the roots of a plant, spewing out green caustic liquid to keep Sega in check.
The stamina gauge could be overcome with Iljinrim’s recovery technique, but if it reached 0 even once, it was elimination.
‘There’s no point in stepping back. The tentacles will probably reach all of this space. Dahyun and Jinrim might end up being targeted for no reason.’
The red light flashed again in Sega’s eyes.
The black energy that had lost its light for a moment flared up fiercely.
Tsukaaaaaaaah-!
A long blue line stretched out behind Sega’s back as he was shot out as if folding the ground.
The thick carapace tentacles were cut off like weeds in front of a swarm.
‘He’s a real genius.’
Lee Gyeom, who was dealing with small demons, stuck out his tongue.
‘It’s gotten stronger.’
Iljinrim fired a series of blood flow bullets in a fit of triumph.
‘Oh, I didn’t think it was cool!’
Joo Da-hyun took a break from the two’s struggle and tried to support Sega with telekinesis.
At that moment, the demon opened its mouth wide and let out a mental wave.
“¦¦¦¦-!”
The air shook like a gust of wind, and invisible waves shook the magic.
Lee Gyeom and Iljinrim froze for a moment, and Joo Dahyun clenched her teeth from a severe headache.
‘Ugh.’
She tried to shake off the pain and checked Sega’s opponent.
‘There’s no way it’s okay.’
If she was hit from this distance, she would look like this, so if she was hit from close range, Sega would have lost his mind.
‘uh?’
But Sega stood upright as if he didn’t care at all.
* * *
Sega expected that the moment the demon opened its mouth, it would shoot out a spirit wave.
‘Coming.’
I had heard a lot of explanations about electromagnetic waves, brain waves, and mental waves from Professor Jang Kwon-se and Professor Hae Jun-sang, and I had become somewhat accustomed to them after fighting snakes and locusts repeatedly.
‘I’m going to completely tear your head off. You have to take it.’
It used electro-magnetic bio-radar and electromagnetic echolocation.
Cheeeeeeeing-!
Blue electric sparks shot out from around her hair, and formless haze distorted the space.
The hell thorn bug screamed out a mental wave.
At the same time, Sega also used resonance waves.
thud!
Formless currents collided in the air, shaking space like a tidal wave.
-!
The demon’s red eyes shook madly, and Sega’s red gaze became darker.
–!
The demon pulled out its tentacles from the ground, but Sega dodged them as if he knew where they would come from.
The demon trembled as if in anger.
Dahyun thought as she looked at the sight.
‘How does Sega use that power?’
As far as she knew, only specially trained high-level psychokinesis, lightning magicians, and psychic hunters could withstand the demon’s psychic waves head-on.
If that is not the case… … .
‘Professor Hae-do might have done something. Yes. He definitely did.’
Dahyun thought like that and used telekinesis.
Stop!
The thorn bug’s legs were torn off from above.
Green blood spurted out, and the spiked tentacles were noticeably reduced.
Wedge!
In that place, Iljinrim’s collapse-type blood flow magic bullet flew in.
Phew! Phew!
The demon’s muscles melted and a green and purple liquid poured out.
“nice!”
Joo Da-hyun and Lee Gyeom defeated the small-scale demons who were targeting Iljinrim.
‘It’s now.’
Sega raised his head as if possessed, and leaped as if he was touching the ground, stabbing his sword into the demon’s head.
Phew!
The black energy penetrated the beak-like mouth.
In a final struggle, the demon pulled out countless tentacles from inside its shell.
A wall of bone and muscle poured down toward Sega.
A sight that makes it seem wise to step back.
‘Never run away.’
‘It’s a chance to create an image, a chance to make money, a chance to get ahead!’
‘I risked my life for it.’
He spread his wings with his red eyes shining.
One. Two. Three. Four. And five.
Blue lines were drawn in the air, and walls of thorny bones crumbled.
* * *
Because the demon was so huge and its shell was so thick, it was difficult to even take out the magic stone.
Sega cut off all the legs rooted in the ground, Judahyun reversed the demon’s hand with telekinesis, and Iljinrim shot a disintegration-type magic bullet to melt the flesh and shell.
While the three of them were dismantling the demons, Lee Gyeom checked the passages through which the demons had come up.
Beep! Beep! Beep!
Just then, the motion detector sounded from afar.
The humility ran like the wind and returned to the community.
‘You idiots. You don’t even know who’s in our group.’
It was likely a surprise attack by students who chose to hunt humans.
“Hahaha! Who dares to… … Huh?”
The 8th group of explorers who returned couldn’t believe their eyes.
Swish, swish!
The ground split open and dust rose up.
“What is this?”
The communal floor they had just been standing on was collapsing like a sinkhole.
The bottom was so deep that I couldn’t even see inside properly.
Iljinrim was sitting on the floor in the other passageway, looking embarrassed.
“Joo Dahyun!”
For some reason, Joo Da-hyun was unable to fly and was falling down a sinkhole.
Jeong Se-ga followed her and dove down the hole.
Beep! Beep! Beep!
Even now, the motion detector was beeping like crazy.
Even at that moment, the sensitive ears of the king noticed one fact.
Thud. Thud.
Footsteps were heard from the passageway they came through.
‘what?’
The footsteps were fading away as if they had finished their business.
‘What is this all of a sudden?’
