793 < 790Usd 4. Hotter than lava (?) Perseverance (2) >

* * *

Ian is meticulous and has good memory.

Especially when it came to gaming, he had an unbelievable memory.

As Ian entered the dungeon, he remembered important points of the system messages that were generated.

It is because he knew that making the most of the rules on the system was the quickest shortcut to successfully clear the dungeon.

So Ian was able to draw one conclusion based on the rules he remembered.

One simple but most important proposition to successfully clear the last stage of this lava's land.

“There's no rush, sister. Let's take it as calmly as possible. There's plenty of time anyway. ”

“Good.”

More than 50 minutes to breach the gate.

The time given to one gate was never short, but it was not long at all.

If you hadn't been so tightly armed with fire resistance as Ian and Lemir, it would have been a difficulty you couldn't even meet the boss of the gate in 50 minutes.

Then, did Ian say he really had 50 minutes, because he thought he had plenty of time?

Of course it wasn't.

Even the 30 minutes given to the fifth gatekeeper were infinitely short, but they could not think that the 50 minutes given to Hidden Stage was much more difficult.

There was only one reason Ian and Remir thought there was a lot of time.

Hidden Stage rules say unlimited trials are possible if you don't die.

It was my intention to make the most of it.

“In the first trial, the goal is to survive for 50 minutes. You know?”

“Yes. Once you hold out until the end of the time limit, half of it works. ”

As a result, Ian and Remir continued to play more carefully and calmly than when they tried the gateways so far.

Even though the way to the Gateway Boss was short enough to be only half of the maze dungeon, it took more than 10 minutes to clear out all the mobs.

And when I reached the end of the gate,

A pillar of flame rises above the boiling lava, and you can finally meet the gatekeeper of Hidden Stage, which was hidden in the veil.

More precisely, the gatekeepers.

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh!

- Totally-!

- Grrrrrrr!

Structures inside the vibrating dungeon that seem to have collapsed as if an earthquake had occurred inside the gate.

Bam-bam-bam-!

Ian and Lemir calmly clear their sight, avoiding the falling lava masses.

We need to find out which ones are coming between the cracking lavas.

And the next moment…….

“ ……! ”

“Crazy……! ”

The two of them opened their mouths and were appalled.

It was because the gatekeepers of the 'Inferno of Destruction’ who appeared before their eyes were so familiar with the shape.

“Wow, you want me to fight them all at once? ”

The gatekeepers compared to Ian's eyes were the guardians of the five lavas he had dealt with so far.

* * *

“Phew, I can't help but punch Ian Gad in the face like this. ”

“Every Lava Guardian is actually more than the dizzy transcendental dungeon boss, but I've put five of them in one gate……. ”

“Khh, I'm the team leader! I knew you'd be prepared for this! ”

The monitoring room of the planning team that was depressing just until Rava Dragon was caught.

However, even after only 40-50 minutes, the atmosphere in the monitoring room was festive.

And the reason the atmosphere was so reversed was, of course, one thing.

- Remaining Challenge Time: 275 seconds

- All challengers have suffered fatalities.

-Go to the gateway waiting room.

Exactly 4: 35 seconds left.

Ian and Remir's party was exterminated in the boss' room, rather than clearing Hidden Stage.

Even extinction was not just extinction.

The two will helplessly retard without killing even one of the five Lava Guardians.

“Sir, can I go home now? ”

“Phew, I'm so frustrated. Well, the lava poolset's a little bony, but it should cover you for a day or two. ”

“Deputy Park. You still have three challenges left, and you're not going home after all? ”

“Hey, boss, didn't you just see that? It destroys everything without doing anything. ”

“That's right. ”

“I don't know if I've caught a couple of them or if they're close, but this is already an answer. ”

“Not really. It just seems like the spec itself isn't enough, but no matter how Ian flies, it won't be enough this time. ”

“So the chiefs should go home as well. It's time for every bus subway. ”

“Hmm, well, can I? ”

Employees from the planning team, who were filling the monitoring room, started to leave one or two positions.

Even if they look like they're working late, the date changes in the office (?), leaving the Hudadak Monitoring Room before 12 o'clock.

Of course, there were those who wanted to see Ian and Remir play to the end, but very few of them went to the end of the night to see it.

It was the same with Planning Team Leader Kim, Ehwan.

“Good. Let's get my stuff and get out of here, shall we? ”

But only one of them was in the monitoring room.

There was one person who was still heavily gluing his butt to the chair without taking his eyes off the screen.

“I'm Team Leader, aren't you going home? ”

“Well……. Yes, sir. I'm just a few minutes away from work. ”

“Do you really think Ian's gonna make a difference in this situation? ”

“I don't know. That's... ”

In fact, unlike other members of the planning team with a polite look, Najchan's expression was not very open.

Despite seeing Ian's cool retreat at the first trial, the anxiety didn't go away entirely.

‘Ian and Remir were able to kill two or three. ’

As I explained earlier, the difference in combat strength was apparent among the five defenders.

There was a difference between Golem and Berserker, Guardians 1, 2 and 3, and Lucolos' strength and Meiji and Dragon, Guardians 4 and 5, overwhelming unique abilities and stats.

And after just seeing the battle, I felt like a Nazarene, so Ian and Remir were able to kill at least two of the Guardians 1, 2 and 3.

In Najchan's view, it felt like the two of them were deliberately circling around the bosses.

‘Obviously Ian and Remir didn't take the deal actively. It felt like something was off. ’

And it's been about 45 minutes since I entered the gate.

The two eventually perished at the link phase of the mage and the dragon.

The unique power of the lava dragon, the power of lava, and Meiji's unique power and resistance penetration skill, flame domination, melted away in an instant.

‘We'll have to wait and see. I need to make sure Ian gets all four of them,' cause I'm going to sleep. ’

Najchan stayed up all night in the monitoring room and buried himself on the couch, and Kim turned around shaking his head.

“Then I'll go home first. Good work, I'm the team leader. ”

“Yes, go in, sir. ”

And soon, in the crowded monitoring room, only Nazi, who had taken out the potato chips, was silently staring at the screen.

* * *

- Remaining Challenge Time: 275 seconds

- All challengers have suffered fatalities.

-Go to the gateway waiting room.

With a system message, the field of view turned white, and the two of them were suddenly forced to be summoned to the gateway waiting room.

You both have one percent of your life left.

Upon confirmation of the death, the system automatically neglected the gate and summoned the two of them to the waiting room.

“Dammit. I finally blew it once. ”

“It's okay, there's still three left. ”

“If I'd reacted a little sooner, I could have survived, but I didn't know the dragonfish could use the power of lava that way. ”

“I can't help it. But now that I know, you won't get hurt. ”

When they arrived in the waiting room, Ian and Remir grumbled and began maintenance.

Once you have used potions and recovery magic, restoring all of your health is more important.

The restorative magic you two possessed, though it was a beginner's spell of bandage.

- HP +1022.

- HP +978.

…… Snapshot……

Two people who blew up one opportunity without scarcely scratching the gatekeeper.

However, for some reason, their expressions didn't look so dark.

Rather, he was more motivated than when he was in the waiting room before the first trial.

“Anyway, since you couldn't hold out for 50 minutes and missed your chance once, you might as well try the same strategy again this time, right? ”

With Lemir's question, Ian nods and answers.

“Of course. This time we'll have enough time to last 50 minutes, so we won't miss our chance. ”

“Am I right?"

“Unless you make a mistake. ”

“Huff.”

Why Ian and Lemir couldn't kill a single boss.

It was related to Najchan's ‘intention’, as expected.

They had no intention of catching the boss in the first trial.

Just hang in there for 50 minutes and deal with a combination of all the bosses' unique abilities.

Adapting to it as much as possible, the goal was to stay alive for 50 minutes.

Of course, I missed the timing of the anomalous attack and left the trail for five minutes, but it was not a lack of success.

At least this time, if we respond perfectly to the tactics, we are confident that it will be possible to survive for 50 minutes.

The second time it failed, it was Ian and Remir who were confident they would last 50 minutes without dying, at least from the third trial.

“Now, when you're ready, let's go back inside. ”

“Great, you're all set! ”

“By the way, you look like you've been in combat for quite a while. You look more lively than usual. ”

“Uh-huh, this enhanced Lava Staff is catching my attention. Can you feel the tiredness?" ”

“Well, that, too. ”

“Maybe if we don't clear this place and get out, we won't be able to sleep because it's unfair. ”

“ ……. ”

Unlike other times, Remir looks more motivated than Ian.

- You have entered the Gateway to the Inferno of Destruction.

- Gateway Breach Timeout: 3,000 sec.

And after more challenging opportunities, the two of them were able to achieve their first goal of 'surviving for 50 minutes.’

- Tyring!

-Limited time exhausted.

-Go to the gateway waiting room.

-Party members have all survived, so the number of challenges they consumed will be recovered.

Whoo-hoo!

“Yes!”

“Khh, it's a start! ”

It was only when the real attack on the dungeons of the two people that left two challenges behind.

-Limited time exhausted.

-Go to the gateway waiting room.

…… approximate……

-Limited time exhausted.

-Go to the gateway waiting room.

…… Snapshot……

Ian and Lemir continued to head to the gate without tiring, and time passed quickly.

After 50 minutes in a single trial, the morning sun came out after about ten times.

-Limited time exhausted.

- We're going to the gateway waiting room.

“Good. I think I have a few more answers. ”

“That was fine, Sis. Even in the third phase, I think we can reduce the time by five minutes. ”

“Oke!”

And while Ian and Remir were continuing to head up the gate of tenacity, all the members of the planning team who had left late at night had to gather back in the monitoring room.

Vibo says Ian's trial continues until work hours (?), the other work was not important.

“Wow, that monster...! ”

“Was he heading that way all night? ”

“Aaaah! They're going to clear that one! ”

“I heard from my team leader that they just wiped out a dragon in the Triad. ”

“Hah, that maniac! Somebody do something! ”

And since all the employees had gathered in the monitoring room, it's been more than three hours.

“Adios……. ”

“I'm going to get ready for the night shift. ”

“My eyes keep sweating.... Why is this happening? ”

The planning team was desperate.

At the point where the 50-minute time limit was one minute away, Rava Dragon had less than 10,000 lives left.

Any of Ian and Remir's attacks may take a room or two to clear the dungeon.

But that's when.

Unbelievable things happened in front of the planning team.

“What's wrong with him? ”

“What? Why did you stop suddenly? ”

Ian and Lemir, who looked like they were going to kill the lava dragon, suddenly stopped the attack.

One minute had passed, and of course Ian and Remir had to be summoned back to the waiting room.

-Limited time consumed…….

Incredible situations that other planning team members couldn't understand, not even me!

“Well, what the hell? ”

And what nobody understood about the situation was, in fact, too natural.

Last minute, before the time limit expires.

It was because no one had heard the slightest sound coming from Ian's mouth.

“Capture……! ”
