episode_0093

Gram, Fafnir, and Brynhild, who controlled it, were a quite infamous combination.

Brynhild, the great warrior of Sigurd’s tribal union, controls the ancient giant god soldier Fafnir, and holds Gram, who spreads a mana field as a weapon?

This was at a level where you could guess what it would be like without having experienced it.

In fact, I heard in the community that Brynhild was a newbie cutter.

There were quite a few cases where newbies who started the game for the first time came to Wiesbark without even knowing what the main scenario was, but got cut in half by the game and ended up with a game over.

This was also true for middle-level players who had adapted to the game to some extent. Brynhild, who rode Fafnir and wielded Gram, was difficult to deal with.

But it was different when I went up there.

This is especially true for stagnant water.

Gilbert parried Gram, who was spraying a mana force field with all his might. The technology that neutralizes magic also worked well on Gram, which creates a mana force field.

Due to the nature of the sword, the closer the blade is, the more affected the force field is. The mana contained in the striking point of the blade that collides with Gram is removed and becomes an ordinary iron sword.

In this situation, if you collide with Gram, who is full of mana, the sword will break or the magic barrier will be torn.

To prevent this, Gilbert used parrying every time the swords collided to eliminate the load on the iron sword he was holding. Using this method, one advantage Gram had was erased and he was able to engage in battle.

“CT. Assistance in deploying magic weapons is needed.”

[Check permission to use magic weapons. I will join the assistant.]

Moreover, the Battle of the Giant God Soldiers was not a battle using only main weapons. The Giant God Soldier was equipped with numerous magic, and was also loaded with shells that could exert physical force.

In order to fight effectively, all weapons mounted on the Giant God Soldier had to be used appropriately.

And it was the artificial spirit that could provide that assistance.

The shoulder armor of the giant soldier that Gilbert was riding opened, and multiple fireballs poured out to keep him in check.

-Kwagwagwang!

Fafnir, who was trying to dig in, quickly retreated a beat.

The reaction speed was so fast that it seemed as if he had predicted it.

From that appearance, Gilbert was able to recall the characteristic skills that Brynhild possessed.

Is it a sixth sense?

It could be seen as an unscientific ability that relies solely on intuition, but if you have it as a characteristic skill, the story is different.

Her characteristic skill is a bloodline characteristic skill handed down from her ancestor Sigurd, and her sixth sense skill, which became more sensitive as she grew up, was able to produce performance close to predicting the future.

It was also a characteristic skill that was far superior in versatility and practicality to Gilbert’s flawed body.

Gilbert clicked his tongue and moved at high speed to occupy the position before she could make her next move.

However, Brynhild, using his sixth sense skill, naturally raised his sword and blocked his advance, as if he had predicted even that. It seemed like he had developed his characteristic skills better than he thought.

[The enemy’s reaction speed is also beyond prediction.]

“It looks like a characteristic skill.”

[To agree. I will begin analyzing the pattern.]

CT-777 began to analyze Brynhild’s battle patterns, as if even that could be analyzed.

– Chang! visor! bang! bang!

They swung their swords and mixed up their magic weapons, but Brynhild figured them all out like a ghost and either swatted them away or showed evasive maneuvers. It was a movement that felt relaxed, as if it could read all of Gilbert’s moves.

You make work fun.

Gilbert grinned. If the enemy was making predictions using his sixth sense, all he had to do was show his movements so irregular that he couldn’t even react.

He happened to have a three-dimensional mobility skill, so if he used it actively, it would be easy to put Brynhild on the defensive.

Immediately, the giant god soldier he was riding abandoned its standard movements. Instead of a predictable, linear movement, they showed an inefficient movement line and went on the attack.

After attacking one beat quickly, I attempted to deploy my magic armament half a beat slower. Showing a random pattern without a set pattern, Gilbert slowly began to pressure Fafnir.

It was from then on.

Fafnir, who was moving leisurely, began to show urgency in his movements.

The higher the performance of the characteristic skill called sixth sense, the more dependable it becomes. The sixth sense is not based on probability, but is literally an area related to feeling.

You can’t completely believe it, and you can’t not believe it at all. In the end, when the moment came when the skill holder had to make a decision, and this sixth sense was shaken so that it may or may not be right, confusion was bound to result.

Gilbert aimed for that point.

He mixed Byeoncho and Heocho with the sword he swung aiming at the blind spot, and poured out magical weapons in unexpected situations. I pushed myself into a standardized pattern, but the moment I decided the other person was used to it, I changed the pattern.

It would be difficult for a typical Giant God pilot, but Gilbert was a veteran pilot who could do it.

On the outside, he was a novice knight with only a short period of time controlling a giant god soldier, but the Kang Do-jun inside him was different.

Approximately 1400 Sortie sorties.

869th battle.

353 planes shot down.

The practical sense and experience accumulated through numerous battles were fully incorporated into Gilbert’s piloting skills, making everything possible.

That wasn’t all.

The piloting ability of 100 served as a stepping stone for his piloting skills to go to a higher level in the name of system backup.

Gilbert chased after Fafnir, who was shifting at high speed, and blocked his path with a golden greatsword.

Winter Sword – Frost Wind

A faint wind of black energy streaked the floor.

Fafnir relieved the aftereffects of the sword energy with Gram, took out the magical cannon he had as an auxiliary weapon, and fired magical bullets.

-Tukwaaang!

Fafnir’s magic bullet only hit the floor. The giant spirit soldier she was targeting for Gilbert had long since left its place.

Gilbert, who was thinking of Brynhild clicking his tongue, felt a strange sensation for a moment.

It was a familiar feeling that I had felt some time ago.

He soon realized that this strange sensation was the border of the territory he had entered during the Academy attack.

Gilbert, who was unconsciously trying to cross the territory, stopped.

It was because he remembered the warning his teacher, Brianna, had given him.

Brianna told Gilbert not to cross her territory again.

It was a warning that going beyond one’s limits would ultimately undermine oneself.

Gilbert also knew what she was worried about.

In Tactical Combat, one of the skills that could be obtained with a fairly slim probability was Limit Break.

It was a special skill that could be obtained when riding the Berserker tech tree as a kind of buff.

Gilbert, who had stepped into the limit area during the attack on the Academy, was able to realize later that this limit area had some similarities to breaking through the limits of Tactical Combat.

Brianna’s explanation was a crucial hint that if you were forced to enter the limit area, you would become a person in trouble.

Abnormal status rebound.

It had the effect of permanently lowering the character’s abilities with a certain probability beyond a condition that only occurred when using Limit Break.

In Tactical Combat, Limit Break was a very good buff that could generate power beyond the current level, but I refrained from using it as much as possible.

At most, there was no gamer who would enjoy seeing the stats of a character they had put a lot of effort into permanently lowering.

If you step into the limit area, there is a high possibility that your body will be damaged by the rebound, like when using limit break. In the end, it was judged that they were probably not different since both were similar in that they produced a return by using more power than was given to them.

However, there was no way to fully utilize the limit breakthrough.

If the limit area is similar to the limit break, this method is also likely to work.

Let’s experiment.

I also had in mind a way to resolve the permanent decline in ability points, so it was well worth experimenting with.

Gilbert did not hesitate to step into a marginal area for the experiment.

[Entering the limit area.]

[warning! When the limit area is activated, a permanent decrease in abilities may occur.]

Up to this point, Gilbert was also familiar with it.

If it had ended here, Gilbert would have been reluctant to use the marginal area.

[You have mastered breaking the skill limit.]

[All conditions for unlocking the skill Lionheart have been met.]

[You have the skill Nemea.]

[Achievements Empire Warriors and Volsung Saga are confirmed.]

[Attempting to fuse skill Lionheart and skill Nemea by satisfying special conditions.]

[It is confirmed that the completion of the Special Conditions Saga is still in progress.]

[Fusing is stopped until the saga is completed.]

Gilbert’s test was successful.

Not only did I unlock Lionheart, which has strict unlock conditions, but I was also able to satisfy all of the special conditions for the fusion of Lionheart and Nemea.

There was no jackpot like this.

good. Finish quickly.

Since the stakes were set so far, I was even more unsure of losing. If we were defeated, there would be enormous casualties and a skill needed for the future might be lost.

Gilbert’s tempo has become faster than before.

He twisted his sword and stabbed it, pouring magic bullets into the area he had avoided.

If Brynhild somehow avoided it using his sixth sense, he moved there one step ahead as if he already knew.

It was the same this time too.

When the iron sword was struck with such force that it seemed as if it would split in half, Fafnir gently dodged at a diagonal angle. Gilbert, who received CT-777’s backup, used lightning-type magic weapons at the avoidance point marked by CT-777.

-Crackling!

A blinding light followed by a sound that seemed to burn the air. In terms of only the speed of manifestation, it was the fastest lightning-type magic.

But Brynhild was no slouch either.

She was also the best warrior representing Sigurd’s tribal union.

Brynhild stabbed the center of the lightning magic with Gram’s mana force field without any sign of embarrassment.

The magic was dispelled by parrying, and the discharge unique to lightning magic was nullified using Gram’s mana force field.

-Kwasik!

As Fafnir stepped forward strongly, the ground split open and fragments flew. It was a counterattack by Brynhild that completely shifted its center of gravity.

The reason I had been doing evasive maneuvers until now was just for this moment.

Gram aimed at Gilbert’s giant soldier and snaked in like a strange snake.

Is it a long shot?

Gilbert’s eyes lit up as he saw the attack aimed precisely at the cockpit.

It was because it roughly matched the timing he had in mind.

Meanwhile, Brynhild smiled brightly at this decisive move.

Because the opponent’s giant god soldier had a reverse action, it was difficult to avoid it physically. At best, opening his upper body a little was the most evasion he could do at the moment.

The reason I continued to endure even the abandoned heels was for this one move.

Objectively, he had better piloting skills than her.

I somehow endured it just for this one move.

Brynhild had no doubt in the victory of the Volsung Saga.

Although my sixth sense gave me a harsh warning, I firmly believed that this was my last chance.

However, Gilbert smiled even as he saw the tip of Gram’s sword approaching right in front of him.

[I will assist with evasive maneuvers.]

The direct effect of the skill 3D Maneuver was activated.

The direct effect, which had a cooldown of one hour, was a skill that could force the skill to be activated with minimal conditions.

Even if it was a movement that went against physical force, it could definitely be used as long as the conditions were met.

And that condition was easily achieved with the assistance of CT-777.

I easily dodged the tip of Gram’s sword, which was aiming for the cockpit, with a back tumble.

As it was a one-time, all-out attack, Brynhild’s Colossus was caught in a reverse action this time. I tried to adjust my posture somehow, but it seemed like the ground I stepped on was only digging deeper.

Gilbert pulled the control stick as soon as the evasive action was over. He rammed his shoulder into Fafnir’s completely empty cockpit and poured all of his mana into the iron sword.

The threads of mana that were not completely tangible were fluttering and distorting the surroundings.

Winter Sword – Cold Wind

A golden ray of light was drawn diagonally.

-visor! thud!

Gram bounced away and Fafnir fell.

Brynhild hurriedly tried to raise Fafnir, but had to face the golden iron sword aimed at her cockpit.

[…lost.]

“It was a good match. Great warrior of Sigurd.”

[You have achieved victory in the Bolsung Saga.]

[The power of Saga resides in your body.]

[The one who sings the achievement saga is updated.]

[Skill fusion that was stopped will be resumed.]

[Skill Baeksu (百獸) has been acquired.]

Gilbert smiled broadly at the notification window blocking his view.

Victory always brings many things.
