Episode 36 Midterm exam public tournament.(4)

“We are looking forward to seeing you in the second match, between Alfred and Park Seong-jin and Park Sung-jin and Alfred. In the first match, cadet Seongjin Park showed a good performance, and cadet Alfred is also a cadet that attracts a lot of attention and attention, so this match is becoming a very big topic.”
“Most of them predicted the loss of Cadet Park Seong-Jin, but few expected Seong-Jin Park’s victory in the first match against Katarina Cadet. The key is whether cadet Park Seong-jin will be able to show his wit and win again this time. I can look forward to it.”
cold rain falls
The city center was dark and quiet.
Rarely people were passing by the street, but the street, which depended on a handful of moonlight and a handful of streetlights for its light, had an atmosphere of night.
All of these are fakes made up of holograms, which is always surprising.
As I lifted my head, I saw something fluttering in the distance in the empty sky between the buildings.
Alfred.
The object, which appeared to be Alfred, was gliding leisurely, maintaining the same speed.
Judging from the movement, it seemed to be more focused on finding me than the purpose of moving somewhere.
After that, what should I do?
I am not ahead of Alfred in any way.
That is why most predict the winner as Alfred.
The gap between me and Alfred was so stark that I didn’t even feel sorry for it.
offense power?
I believe that no one can compare the attack power of the ability to make and fly small lightning with the ability that is perfect when it comes to thread knitting.
Mobility?
You will know which one is better, me, who can only secure mobility by using the medium of thread, or Alfred, who can fly in the sky without any restrictions.
Combat Durability?
Alfred’s third ability, Immortal Mercury, removes all harmful effects and restores all HP. Needless to say
What the hell can I do in a yard like this?
In the midst of thinking for a while, a loud noise echoed through the city.
I wondered what was going on, so I moved towards the sound, and it seemed that a drunken driver had accidentally touched the car and the car burglar alarm had sounded.
I’m going to die of noise.
No, wait.
car.
a car?
Yeah, why didn’t I think of this?
In the code of conduct to prepare for lightning accidents, there was clearly a story about sheltering inside a car.
That means the inside of the car is safe even in Alfred’s lightning strike.
Of course, it’s a car from the world I lived in. If it hits by lightning, it will damage the car, but the technology of this world is far more advanced than the world I lived in.
A few thunderbolts may hold out longer.
The other guys probably didn’t know about this.
Nevertheless, among those who were dealing with Alfred, the reason that none of them had the option of escaping inside the car was probably because none of them knew how to drive.
But, I am different.
Obviously, I’ve had a driver’s license in a previous world.
Well, even in the previous world, as a beggar, there is no way I could have had a car, so my license was just a closet license, but the basic driving method still remained in my memory.
Is driving a car different in another world?
It was good.
I might be able to win this way.
sorry. Aina.
I think I can win this match without your help.
* * *
Quite a number of vehicles were parked on the shoulder.
I picked any vehicle and fired a thread bullet at the car’s window.
Also, it doesn’t break easily.
About seventeen rounds of thread bullets hit the window, and there was a hole in the window that I could put my arm through.
Similarly, the car burglar alarm rang loudly, but I lightly ignored it and got into the car.
“That… What is your judgment?”
“I could avoid the Alfred Cadet’s electric shock by getting in the car, but… Staying still inside the vehicle will trigger a combat evasion warning and result in disqualification. It is difficult to know what the intention is.”
What, there’s no hole for the car key?
… f*cked.
Trying to understand this world with the sensibility of the world I lived in is not good enough.
Hopefully, the vehicle owner’s fingerprints are needed to start the car.
f*ck.
good night.
Let’s push the concept of this game to a villain altogether.
I just stood there waiting for a car to pass by on the road.
When I looked up at the sky, Alfred had come a long way from me.
Please, any car is fine, so come quickly.
After waiting around three minutes, I saw a car passing by the road.
That’s it.
I hurriedly put several threads on the car body and stopped the vehicle.
“Wait!”
“excuse me. No matter how awakened you are, if you stop someone else’s car at will… ”
“I don’t know. I will use the car well and return it to you.”
I pushed the hologram citizen out of the car and got into the car.
Hijacking, successful.
Oh, the ride feels good.
[warning. Points for combat evaluation will be deducted for actions that endanger citizens.]
f*ck you.
“… I’ve been to Trinity Academy quite a few times so far, but this is the first time I’ve seen a scene like this.”
“If there are two cadets like that, it would be a big problem.”
“No, even so, how the hell do you drive? Wasn’t Park Seong-jin’s age enough to get a license yet?”
I’ve gained enough speed, so let’s step on the accelerator now.
I went straight to the sky where Alfred could be seen, and set off.
* * *
“Look at that, Oscar.”
“… You’re just crazy.”
“The days of needing a gentle hero like us are long gone. Look at the Jacob you invited. He no longer considers himself a hero. Heroes are now an entertainment element. The times are in need of such a madman now.”
“But don’t you think that’s too much?”
“Is it fun?”
Oscar stopped talking and started looking at Chloe.
with the eyes of sincerity.
“Well, why? Do you think it’s fun too?
“under… I didn’t do anything against the school rules, so I can’t give any disciplinary action, and I’m going crazy. I never thought that a guy like that would be admitted to Trinity Academy. live long and see I guess I will have to add school rules after this midterm exam is over.”
“Yeah, do it your way.”
* * *
Alfred is visible directly above his head.
I stopped the car, rolled down the window and called Alfred.
“Alfred!”
“… Park Seong-jin?”
“I pulled out a car!”
Alfred has a puzzled expression on his face.
Seriously, everyone would be embarrassed by this situation.
I fired a thread bullet at that stunned face.
Of course it all went wrong.
“What are you going to do!”
Alfred started throwing lightning at me.
that it doesn’t work
I was struck by lightning about two times, but the car was fine.
Still, if you receive too much lightning, your vehicle may break down, so you shouldn’t just give it a shot.
“Did you aim for this? Park Seong-jin? Defending against lightning with a car! It’s simple, but no one has ever tried it, right? Is this a change of thinking?”
“The interior of the car is obviously safe from lightning. However, if you don’t know how to drive a car, you may be protected from lightning, but your mobility will be completely lost, which is likely to lead to defeat. However… It shouldn’t be a problem for cadet Park Seong-jin who knows how to drive.”
“Cadet Seong-Jin Park seems to be on the right track in taking advantage of the environment. Responsiveness is excellent. Is it enough to be put into the actual field?”
I took the wheel again.
The moment I took the steering wheel, a slight tingling and tingling energy flowed through my body.
Well, can’t it completely shut off the external current?
Anyway, it’s a static level sting, so it shouldn’t be a big problem.
Shall we start driving?
The battle between lightning and thread bullets continued.
At first, it was Alfred who avoided him easily, but he lost his concentration due to a long fight, so he gave me five chances.
Well, that didn’t give me a huge advantage.
The car I was riding in was also hit by about seven lightning strikes, so it was a dangerous situation to be struck by lightning more than this.
“How do you view this situation?”
“Cadet Park Seong-jin looks advantageous. Alfred’s cadets seem to be using two ideological powers at the same time. Alfred cadets should also reserve the third ability and immortal mercury death power consumption values just in case. However, since the cost of the other two Death Powers is not a very low ability, in fact, Alfred Cadet probably doesn’t have a lot of Death Power left.”
“I agree. Cadet Park Seong-jin’s first ability, the unnamed spider, is also an ability that doesn’t require a lot of thinking power.”
I’m sure Alfred would have left enough to use the immortal mercury.
Now, Alfred, how much thought do you have left?
I am still full of ideas.
As long as the car holds up well, even if I maintain this confrontation for more than an hour, my thinking power will remain.
But, obviously Alfred wouldn’t.
Isn’t it time to slowly lose thought?
The problem is, as long as there is Alfred’s immortal mercury, the risk of winning the game is too high… .
In the end, my goal would be to either exhaust his thinking powers to prevent Alfred from using immortal mercury, or to make him use immortal mercury altogether.
In order to do that, we need to keep Alfred in flight, constantly draining his thinking power…
My guess was correct.
Alfred slowly sat down on the roof of a building, feeling the burden of exhaustion of his thinking power.
This means that it will be difficult to use Immortal Mercury if you use more flight than this.
This fight, I will definitely catch it.
I fired round and round bullets around the building where Alfred had landed, and Alfred fired lightning bolts non-stop as if he was about to hit my vehicle.
As a result, there were a lot of soot from Alfred’s lightning strike on the road, and dents were formed on the wall of the building that was hit by my bullet.
After all, was this the tenth time you were struck by lightning?
Slowly, the car started not to listen.
It must be time to break
Does not matter.
As long as the vehicle does not come to a sudden stop, my plan will succeed.
Seeing that Alfred’s lightning has subsided, the remaining thought power must be only enough to use the immortal mercury.
The audience will also be cheering when we show a new performance here.
I started going straight towards the building where Alfred was.
“Cadet Park Seong-jin! Suddenly you go straight to the building where Alfred Cadet is? What is your intention?”
“If you bump into it, the building won’t collapse. Are you trying to drop the Alfred cadet with the impact on the building?”
In front of the road going straight, I created a stepping stone uphill.
Since it was woven with the highest strength I could make, I believed that it could withstand the weight of the car body to some extent.
All that’s left is to step on the accelerator.
The vehicle lands on the scaffolding and flies towards the roof of the building where Alfred is.
Just before the vehicle collides, I quickly open the window of the vehicle, jump, and land safely by grappling.
With the exploding vehicle, 1/3 of the building’s roof was blown away.
Behind a burning vehicle, perched on the roof of the building, Alfred appeared unharmed.
It was certain that they used immortal mercury.
“I will abstain.”
[Alfred cadet abstained. Winner, Park Seong-jin. The second test has ended.]
“This is my first time seeing a match like this!”
“I can’t praise it as a good method, but… One really extraordinary idea! Park Seong-jin cadet!”
“It makes you want to sign him from our team, right?”
Underdog’s rebellion named Park Seong-jin was enough to plunge Trinity Stadium into a crucible of enthusiasm.
“Hey, Jade.”
“Did you think the same?”
“Let’s go get a license this vacation.”
“Unconditional.”
