Closed Beta I Played Alone

Chapter 36

Episode 36. Stop the Scorpion King (2).

In other words, it still means that a scorpion like a light apricot will come out, not the original normal scorpion.

And it seemed to be as I expected.

“As you know, rounds 1 and 2 are free rounds. Everyone, please do your best.”

“Yes!”As soon as the first word was finished, the scorpions appeared from the front through the sand.

There is no particular difference in appearance from before, but it emits black haze all over its body.

And the second round was not much different from the first round.

Of course, it seemed to have gotten a little stronger.

The tanks, who only warmed up for the first round, stopped the charge of the cursed Scorpions several times each.

Even so, it’s embarrassing to say that I’ve suffered damage.

So the 2nd round ended very easily.

[Round 3 begins.

-Scorpions appear.]

Finally, the real normal scorpions whose modifiers ‘wound’ or ‘cursed’ are gone.

“ruler! Now the real start. Wizards make sure to lay the floorboards in advance. Everyone is fighting!”

“go for it!”

Those who showed their leisure to the fullest of how many times they had experienced in the meantime also straightened their bodies.

And the board mentioned in number one.

Of course you know what

Because I heard it frequently even during the closed beta.

Wide-area skills like Ice Field.

This was called a board.

And as mentioned in No. 1, several boards began to unfold in front.

“Firefield!”

“I will make my ignorant enemies feel the fear of death. Death Field.”

“Create a swamp!”

“Ice Field!”

Each was divided into 7 people, but anyway, there were a total of 21 dealers here.

Because of this, various skills that can be called Jangpan were created.

And I used it too.

ice field.

It touches the ice field unfolded by the wizards of other ice affiliates, which spread in the spot where the scorpions rushed in.

thud! thud! thud!

Scorpions that move on top of several board skills soon take damage by themselves.

And the scorpions were again poured with various skills.

Unlike rounds 1 and 2, wide-area skills.

And I used it right away.

“The pouring hail!”

poop poop.

Scorpions that are slightly larger than most bulls.

So there were plenty of places to go.

From head to back to tail everywhere.

Of course there was another.

“The pouring hail!”

A pouring hailstone used by other ice wizards other than myself.

In fact, it looks like it was used overlapping the area I used, pouring hail.

So it was difficult to tell who was who.

Of course I knew.

Obviously the hail produced by my pouring hail was a bit bigger, and it was decidedly mine only to crush the hard-looking shells of normal scorpions.

There were two types of hail.

Hail with strong damage that can even shatter the enemy’s skin, and hail that is a bit more devastating compared to that.

The area of ​​hail pouring there was obviously wider than mine.

Anyway, various sheets and wide-area skills pouring over them.

However, there were also Scorpions who broke through it and approached the tankers who were standing in the front.

“Engrave it on my body! Indomitable will!”

“Iron wall shield!”

Soon the tanks also used their own skills to block the Scorpions.

And after that, some melee dealers using weapons such as swords and bayonets also started moving.

Whoops! Whoops!

bang! bang!

Tanks, dealers, and healers and supporters who help tanks.

Probably all of them were close to level 400, so the sum was tight in their own way.

despite the first try.

So I was able to face it without any damage.

End of round 3.

“Hey. Taichi-sama, aren’t you kidding about the power of ice skills?”

“Yes. The floor that Taichi-sama put on was definitely a hit. So the scorpions that passed over it died the fastest. Others could not get out of the floor and died instantly.”

A level 384 wizard named Taichi, who seems to be obsessed with ice like me.

he will know

must.

Because he had skills that far exceeded the power he knew until now.

So, if you are ignorant enough to not know about it, you are bound to be an idiot.

It’s not like I’ve used it once or twice while raising level 384.

But he did not deny it.

Rather, they just wave their hands.

spit out humble words there.

“haha. no. what did i do Everyone did their best, so we caught it quickly.”

For a moment, I couldn’t help but burst out laughing secretly at his words.

Because I know it’s an obvious lie.

That too, with me in front of the party.

But he didn’t seem to notice his lies.

Of course, it’s not that I don’t understand them.

The gap of more than 250 levels of level 384 and level 131 boasted a huge gap that hid even the truth.

And then a healer called out.

“Wow! We are in third place!”

Soon, everyone turned their eyes to the sky at the healer’s cry.

I follow them too.

[Current defense scoreboard.

-1st place: Defense No. 24 (455,781 points)

-2nd place: Defense 116th (452,911 points)

-3rd place: Defense 79th (449,699 points)

：

:]

The defense I currently belong to is the 79th defense.

There was not much difference from the 1st place.

“Wow! Hopefully we can eat the bonus Scorpion King! Good luck everyone!”

“Yes!”

A situation in which morale is bound to soar.

And then the message rang.

[Round 4 begins.

-Scorpions appear.]

“Round 4 is no different, except that there are more monsters than round 3. All you have to do is do the same as before.”

“Yes!”

Obviously, there was no special modifier in front of the Scorpion.

However, in front of me, more than twice as many scorpions as before came up through the sand.

And the momentum that broke through did not stop.

Of course, he didn’t just stare blankly at it.

Scattered the available slate skills in each direction and blocked them as much as possible.

and I?

used right away.Ignoring the ice magician named Taichi at level 384 who was watching me.

“Ice Field!”

Exactly in front of our third party, there was a wide ice field.

And then another voice followed.

“Ice Field!”

Inevitably overlap again.

No, not at all, obviously, on purpose.

I glanced at him gently.

Then, as if he was conscious of me, he immediately opened his mouth to me.

“If overlapped, the slowing effect will not increase, but the damage of the Ice Field itself will increase.”

A clear word in its own right.

But frankly, it felt the same.

Because I’m not stupid enough to not know that it’s a lie.

fuck.

But without saying anything, he smiled slightly at him and turned his gaze to the front again.

It will eventually show up as a score later.

And only later did the author find out that he had dug a grave by urinating on his own feet.

“Multiple Ice Arrows, Ice Balls, Ice Bolts.”

In the meantime, even single skills were constantly used.

Of course, there was one more.

A wide-area skill called Ice Blast.

However, it is a handshake that breaks the currently maintained ice field by itself.

So it was not used.

However, I used one more quickly than anyone else.

“Ice Field!”

Another ice field next to the one I used.

I haven’t used more than two ice fields at once.

Because I didn’t need to use it.

Because the link between the ice field and the pouring hail or the ice field and the ice blast was enough.

All the monsters I’ve faced so far.

But this time it was not the case, so I used it again.

“Huh?”

“already?”

And those who felt something strange about me threw their eyes at me.

Of course I know why.

Even though it is a level 2 ice field, there is already a formidable limitation of a cooldown to use it again.

However, I ignored their gaze and used it again like Boran.

My own hail pouring on the ice field that I opened separately.

poop poop. poop poop.

Quick! Quick!

For a moment, my attention was focused on me.

Maybe that’s why, with the pouring hail that I used, the thick skin like the armor of the Scorpions spread out widely.

And the sound lasted quite a while.

Of course, there were quite a few Scorpions who died in it.

only by my own strength.

Of course, it didn’t stop there.

The action of firing multiple ice arrows, ice balls, and ice bolts.

Then he slowly turned his gaze left and right and said a word.

To those who stare blankly at me.

“Aren’t you attacking?”
