I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy - Episode 42

42fury

Gigant is walking carrying the moonlight on his back..

The ambushers who had been fiercely swinging their swords just a moment ago dispersed when Gigant appeared..

Kwang-kung-!

Abel thought as he watched Gigant getting closer..

Before entering the forest.

I had quite a few plans in my head..

Some of them were very complex, and at first I was more interested in them..

This is because I knew that there were a lot of trainers ambushed on the way to the destination..

However, after seeing the faces of the team members, I changed my mind again..

Is there really a need for a complicated plan??

If your goal is to defeat all those in ambush, in this stage, all you have to do is board the Gigant within an early hour..

More importantly, it was not necessary for everyone to reach their destination..

‘In the first place, the moment even one person gets on the Gigant, the prepared trap becomes meaningless..’

Even if a huge rock blocks the road, even if trained hunting dogs chase after you,.

Even if the trainers in ambush come swinging their swords.

The moment Gigant appears, all traps lose their meaning..

So Abel chose a very simple plan..

We will send Daniel, who is the fastest on his feet and has the best stamina, first, and the rest will hold out until he returns..

And Abel's plan worked perfectly..

Cooung-!

After approaching the appropriate distance, Gigant carefully bent down and held out his hand..

“let's go.”

Abel exchanged glances with the others and then climbed onto their palms..

Regardless of trusting Daniel, it took great courage to move while riding on Gigant's palm..

Therefore, Abel was the first to get on board and looked at the other cadets..

“Come up carefully.”

As soon as she could speak, May jumped up, and Calian followed right behind her as if she couldn't lose..

“Darin.”

Lastly, Darin, who was looking scared, also got on board with the help of May and Abel..

Hehehe-.

Daniel very carefully controlled the Gigant and lifted the personnel, then started walking back to the other side..

When I reached the palm of my hand, I could see the destination that had been hidden between the trees..

‘There you are.’

The destination was closer than I thought.

A red flag was planted in the middle of the clearing, and Gigant was right there..

‘These are all entry-level aircraft..’

I'd have to get closer to see for sure, but I could guess it just by looking at it..

There is no dedicated aircraft for each cadet there..

Of course, I already knew this, but it was true that I had expectations just in case, so I couldn't help but be disappointed..

But Abel quickly let his disappointment sink deep in his heart..

Boom, boom-.

Gigant moved forward..

Unlike when I walked barefoot with heavy tension, the scenery seen from Gigant's perspective was very refreshing..

Soon after, Daniel stopped in front of his destination and placed his hands on the floor as carefully as before..

“Phew.”

The cadets sighed in relief and landed on the floor..

“There is only Gigant.”

Abel looked around and said.

In the vacant lot we arrived at, there were four Gigants lying side by side..

Perhaps there was no one there from the beginning. Abel became convinced when he saw the footprints left around him..

‘It looks like they withdrew not long ago..’

Maybe he was watching the vacant lot around here..

It's not that important.

Abel opened his mouth again..

“There doesn't seem to be a big difference between aircraft, so let's ride in order from the left..”

“okay.”

“okay.”

“Yes.”

While Daniel was on the Gigant and looking around as if standing guard, Abel got on the Gigant..

Wow-.

After getting into the cockpit, I placed both hands on the core and infused magical power, and there was an immediate response..

Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.

The magic power in the body spread through the core into the body, then returned and spread again..

As the chain of solidarity was formed, Abel's senses gradually began to expand..

Since it was a fairly familiar experience by now, Abel calmed down his boiling excitement and moved the gigant..

Cooung!

As I raised my body with both arms on the ground, my vision instantly shot up..

After maintaining my balance and stepping on the ground with both feet, information about the surrounding area flooded my mind like a tsunami..

This is a forest.

The fact that there was a fairly large forest meant that this was the entrance..

‘To be exact, Ortul Forest right next to the Telif Plain..’

Up to this point, Abel and the cadets have gone through two stages..

The first was an attack while in a car. The second is to arrive at the destination and board the Gigant..

And now we are approaching the third step..

The practice was divided into several stages, but the first two stages were merely a light warm-up..

In other words, the real practice begins now..

Boom, boom-!

The other cadets also stood up after completing the operation of the Gigant one by one..

When the operation was completed until the last person.

thud!

A small vibration rang out not far away..

When I looked back, a Tito-class Gigant appeared, placed something on the floor, and disappeared again..

The movement was so fast that it was difficult to even say a word, let alone chase after him..

The cadets on the Gigant exchanged glances with each other and then looked at the black cube on the floor..

-I… … I'll check.

Darin, who was standing closest to the cube, said this and walked closer and stretched out his hand to the cube..

Darin picked it up carefully, as if he were handling an explosive..

Fortunately, the cube didn't explode or anything..

Instead, a small light stretched out.

Paat-.

The light extending from the cube pointed exactly in one direction and soon disappeared without a trace..

Darin didn't show it on the outside, but he paused as if he was surprised and then started fiddling with the cube again..

Paat!

Then the light came out once again..

Darin checked it and said.

-It seems like light comes out when you inject magic power..

Daniel made one request..

-Hmm. I want to keep injecting and moving.?

-Yes.

Darin walked slowly sideways and waved his arms around..

Even though the location changed, the cube continued to point in the same direction..

By then everyone realized.

-I think the next destination is where that light is pointing.?

-I guess so..

In other words, the cube is a kind of navigation..

After talking about the cube and the future, the cadets soon came to a conclusion..

-Then, let's keep the cube in Darin's possession, and let's move the formation as before..

-okay.

After coming to a conclusion, we immediately started moving..

Of course, just because I got on the Gigant didn't mean I let go of all my worries..

In fact, even though no one said anything, everyone became more alert than before..

Since I was on the Gigant, the test I would face in the future was likely to be dangerous..

Of course, Abel knew all about future developments..

‘You're safe until you get out of the forest. There are no attacks or traps in particular. but…….’

The practice will begin in earnest from the moment you leave the forest and enter the plains..

Gigant combat practice.

Boom, boom, boom-.

The five Gigants on which the cadets rode soon reached the outskirts of the forest..

Abel said to the other cadets before heading out of the forest..

-My prediction is that there will be a high probability of a full-scale battle from now on. It was so quiet before?

It wasn't a story with a clear basis, but everyone nodded..

Abel continued speaking..

-First, I'll move ahead and check for any other traces. Everyone, please continue to be on guard on both sides and the back..

-okay.

-Ah Okay.

-i get it.

-huh.

After hearing everyone's answers, Abel was the first to set foot on the plain..

the plain was quiet.

I haven't heard the footsteps of other Gigants or the cries of the Colossus fragments yet..

The quiet situation made me feel even more anxious..

‘It's quiet.’

Abel walked straight ahead, holding his basic weapon, a sword, in his hand..

Huge footprints were left here and there on the plain..

It seemed quite difficult to distinguish important things because there were so many traces left, but Abel did it without difficulty..

This was because I studied related knowledge for ‘survival’ even before entering the academy..

‘The only traces left recently are the footprints of a Tito-class Gigant..’

Naturally, Abel thought of Tito, who had left the cube earlier..

Of course, the gigant belonged to the Academy..

So, the fact that Tito's footprints remained in this area meant that there was a high probability that there was something not far away, and that it was most likely a 'fragment of the titan'..

But it was impossible to determine exactly what species it was..

‘It was random which fragments appeared in the game..’

Regardless of the route, the prepared giant fragments were random..

Basically, this may be because the game itself was produced with the assumption of multiple rounds..

If you keep going down the same path and facing the same monsters, you'll get bored..

Of course, it was a painful element for Abel who entered the world of such a game..

‘Still, not everyone is lacking in power, so there won't be much trouble at this stage..’

Abel thought so and continued walking forward..

Perhaps the morning sun is about to rise, but the horizon in the distance is slowly starting to brighten..

‘If possible, it would be better to fight after the sun rises to some extent..’

The moon was bright, so visibility was clear to some extent, but there was still a big difference between being bright at all and not being bright at all..

This was especially true because most of the giant fragments had bright night vision..

But Abel's wish did not come true..

dddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd-.

Suddenly, the ground began to shake.

The eyes of the cadets, including Abel, were focused on exactly one point..

-not one!

Calian shouted loudly..

As the saying goes, the vibrations that shook the earth were absolutely not at a level that a single animal could create..

As everyone quickly formed battle formation, Abel was able to see things appearing beyond the horizon..

-Iron Wolf pack!

A pack of silver-colored wolves were rushing towards them..

Although each animal's strength was much lower than that of a bladed tail, its danger was incomparable..

As its name suggests, the Iron Wolf has characteristics and appearance similar to a wolf..

This means that it is a species that hunts in packs..

-It's hot from the beginning.

Abel stepped forward, raising his sword..

It was obvious that it would be a difficult battle. But as the battle approached, excitement outweighed tension..

And at the same time, the pattern engraved on Abel's chest flickered faintly..

-let's go!

Without realizing it, Abel raised his weapon and shouted.
