I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy - I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy chapter 120
The cadets, who had just formed, immediately raised their weapons.
Everyone was clearly nervous, but no one was frightened or panicked more than enough.
But then.
The commander of the ranger unit took out a bow and hung an arrow on the string.
Snuggle Geek-.
Pulling the arrow to its limit, he seemed to be waiting for something for a moment, then let go of his hand at some point.
Fighting!
The arrow flew at high speed with the sound of the strings snapping.
On the opposite side of the place where the formation was held, the trees were lined up in a disorderly manner because they had not been trimmed separately, and the arrows pierced the gaps.
The captain looked at it for a while and then said.
– A hit to the head. die instantly
At that, the cadets looked in amazement at him and the place where the arrow flew.
Of course, nothing was visible.
-two people. Go check the status and make sure there are no other objects around.
-yes!
After completing his task, the commander of the Ranger unit approached the cadets and said.
-I am Requilas. He is in a position to lead the Ranger unit. The rank of the Ranger unit is slightly different from other places, so when you cadets call me, just say captain.
Requilas, who continued to speak in a calm voice, looked around and then opened his mouth again.
-The ranger unit will take a position in the back and take on the role of supporting with bows. In a crisis situation, it will play a role beyond that, but keep in mind that it’s up to you to take on the main line of defense. Got it?
-yes!
After he finished speaking, Requilas then raised his hand and placed the Ranger units in various places.
Most took up positions right behind the cadets’ formation, and a few hid themselves behind nearby trees.
After a certain amount of deployment, Kaul spoke to him.
-What do you think is the estimated time of arrival of the enemies?
– According to schedule, it will be 2 hours later, but considering the entity that has just approached, it may arrive a little earlier.
-surely… … You have to prepare your mind to some degree.
Cowl shook his head and said to the cadets.
– I’m sure everyone heard it! Enemies may arrive earlier than expected. So don’t let go of tension and wait!
-yes!
After hearing the answer, Kaul went to one side and talked to Rechilas instead of giving further instructions.
Perhaps they were discussing detailed operations.
– Hmm. I feel a strong tension around me.
At that time, Lupus’s voice was heard.
The lupus in the bracelet had moved back to the core.
Abel smiled and said.
“Do you feel that too?”
-of course. Tension, fear, excitement, desire. Such strong emotions are so fragrant that they can be smelled from afar.
“is it. Then what does it smell like for me?”
– Hmm.
Rufus paused for a moment before speaking.
-well. Strangely, it’s hard to grasp the owner’s feelings. I don’t think it was like that before.
“okay?”
Abel tilted his head.
Even Abel couldn’t figure out why. It wasn’t that important, though.
He thought about it for a moment when he heard a voice calling him from the left.
-Abel.
It was Daniel who stood right in front of me.
-Aren’t you nervous?
– It seems to me that you are extremely nervous.
– Sharp?
After Daniel answered, he continued talking while lightly loosening his shoulders.
-Something feels strange. We fought with a lot of people during the last practice, but it feels different now that we are here.
-That’s right.
Abel was silent for a moment, then spoke.
– Don’t get hurt. If the front is pierced, the back will suffer.
-Don’t worry, it won’t happen.
Daniel pretended to be blunt and then looked back.
After that, there was a tense but rather boring time.
It was because I had to stand still and wait.
‘This must be part of the training.’
It is not uncommon to wait for hours like this when performing actual operations.
where only a few hours? Sometimes you may even have to wait a few days.
It is very difficult to stand still in a Gigant.
First of all, concentration and mana are constantly being consumed even to keep Gigant standing still.
I can’t put tension there, so that part consumes a lot of mental energy.
So training is important.
There is a big difference between those who have done this at least once and those who have not.
Time passed like that, and after about an hour and half an hour had passed.
Beep-!
A sharp whistle rang out ahead.
As soon as he heard the sound, Requilas spoke in a low, heavy voice.
– The enemy is approaching. Ready for battle!
At those words, all the cadets and rangers raised their weapons and glared forward.
and after a while
Enemies appeared ahead of them, led by fragments of a large giant.
-launch!
Requilas immediately gave the order, and the rangers fired their arrows without hesitation.
Woo-woo-!
Even though many people fired arrows, the sound was almost heard as one.
It was the sound that the arrows were fired at almost the same timing.
Some of the arrows hit trees, but most flew straight through the trees.
-Keee
– Keek!
Then a sharp scream rang out.
Abel watched as the fragments of the giant, which had been rushing forward with great vigour, fell.
The magic cannon is often seen as a superior weapon, but the magic cannon exerts its power only when its output is supported.
It was also because of this that Henna, who was born with tremendous magical power, was the only one who used the Magic Cannon as the main power among the cadets.
Of course, Tito’s bows are much more destructive than magic cannons.
Of course, that also requires some level of bow skills.
-Ready to fire again!
There was no doubt about the rangers’ bow skills.
At Requilas’ command, they mechanically strung arrows and fired again.
The fragments of the giant that were running madly could not properly avoid the flying arrows.
– Prepare soon!
But that alone could not completely block the enemies.
The fragments of the giant continued to shorten the distance as they jumped over the piled corpses.
Abel looked at it and thought.
‘The number is staggering.’
It reminded me of the last battle at Red Hall.
No matter how many times you kill, the enemy’s offensive never ends. A tense line of defense.
Fortunately, there were no colossi among the enemies running this way.
‘I said that the main defensive area is the center of the 1st corps.’
Most of the enemy probably went that way.
Because the two wings that the cadets were in charge of were only to block the enemies that partially spilled out.
thump, thump, thump.
-Cook it!
Abel lost his thoughts at the sound he heard in front of him.
A fragment of a gigantic giant rushed through the rain of arrows.
It was a wild boar-like creature clad in iron armor.
‘Iron Hog.’
The fragments of the giant, which looked exactly like the name, were running right in front of Abel.
Abel was in the 2nd line, so it was precisely for Daniel.
“Whoa.”
Taking a short breath, Abel raised a spear instead of his main weapon, the giant sword.
There were many inconveniences with the giant sword in a battle that was fought with formation like this.
Abel knew that too well, so he had been using various weapons instead of learning the giant sword from the beginning.
-Huh!
Daniel let out a spirit and blocked the front with his shield.
Abel waited for the right timing and vigorously thrust the spear through the gap.
Quagga gagagak!
“Kwiyiyiik!”
Three spears stabbed Iron Hog almost simultaneously.
Riders on both sides of Daniel, as well as Abel, added a hand.
Thanks to this, Iron Hog, who rushed at high speed, couldn’t go any further and struggled with his body pierced by the spear.
Daniel didn’t miss the chance and swung the sword in his hand.
Quadruped!
The sword dug deep into Iron Hog’s eye.
No matter how strong the armor is, the eyes are soft.
As Daniel pushed the sword deeper, Iron Hog’s nose and leaves dripped blood, and he collapsed.
cooong!
Daniel stepped on Hogg’s head, pulled out his sword, and immediately pushed the corpse slightly forward.
It’s quite a big guy, so it should be a defense in itself.
“Kwiyiyiik!”
Similar things were happening everywhere.
This is because most of the fragments of the giants that arrived first were Iron Hogs.
It was a natural result because of its strong defense and fast charging speed.
One place couldn’t be dealt with in one hit, so it was almost allowed to break through, but the rangers waiting in the back quickly dealt with it.
-Establish a defensive wall with Iron Hogs!
Then Kaul, who was waiting behind, gave instructions.
In response, the first-line teachers put the Iron Hogs a little closer to block the front.
A few more hogs pounced, but stumbled and slowed down as they ran into the corpses of their own kind.
Of course, the cadets did not miss the gap and immediately pierced the spear into the eye or mouth to deal with it.
It was natural for the defense wall to become thicker.
thump, thump, thump, thump!
After finishing Hog first, a different type of enemy appeared this time.
It was a dark gray body with a head resembling a cow above it.
It was running with a tree uprooted as a shield.
‘It’s a Minotaur.’
It has a different original name, but players just called it that.
The Minotaur was quite intelligent.
You can tell just by looking at them running away with their vitals covered by trees.
-foot! Aim for your feet!
Bigger than most Milles-class Gigant, and with high intelligence, he was the second most powerful threat.
Requilas gave instructions to focus on the Minotaur to block its approach.
“Gaaa!”
The Minotaur somehow twisted its body to block the arrows, but no matter how big the tree it was holding, it couldn’t block them all.
The number of arrows stuck in the exposed body parts increased in an instant.
But not everything went well.
While blocking the approach of the Minotaur, fragments of other giants quickly narrowed the distance.
-The first line focuses on defense!
At Kaul’s cry, all the cadets in the first line gave up their attacks and crouched down with their shields planted on the ground.
Abel squeezed his spear as he drooled as he watched the enemy running towards him.
Woo woo woo woo-!
First of all, mana was pushed into the core that was limiting its output.
It’s a second-generation core that still needs a lot of improvement, but as I’ve been using it for a long time, I’ve come up with some tips.
‘About 70% operation is the least stable.’
If you increase the output beyond that, you can generate explosive power instantaneously, but the usage time is drastically reduced.
About 70% is suitable for long-term battles.
Raising his strength, Abel stabbed his spear with surprise when the enemy approached right in front of him.
Kwajijik!
The spear penetrated deep between the wolf’s forehead, which was surrounded by a hard carapace.
Abel, as if convinced of his immediate death, drew the spear without hesitation and swung the spear at the enemy behind him.
Quaaa!
– Kill!
-back! More to come later!
in great confusion.
Abel felt more alive than ever.
