Chapter 48

Vicious mana hit the ground.

A deafening explosion reverberated, evaporating the snow and turning it into white steam in an instant.

Bright magma flowed where the beam sword had fallen.

Noah could no longer be seen.

“Keuahah! There’s not even a trace left of his body.”

The hybrid devil, tangled with veins and wires, laughed loudly.

Mousin, who had been watching, shouted.

“No!!!”

The boy was dead. A monster-like guy who seemed impossible to kill had disappeared without a trace.

Still, what was this rising anger he was feeling?

“…How dare you! You son of a bitch!”

Reason was paralyzed.

Before he knew it, he had taken out his family’s treasure and was charging at the devil with the tonfas.

He had just wanted to pass the exam with the useful help of the boy. He certainly didn’t have to keep his loyalty.

It was strange even when he thought about it.

He was someone who would use anything at his disposal, and it was normally his style to only do what benefited him.

So he didn’t know why he had made this decision.

However, he wasn’t the only one with such feelings, as other applicants around him had also taken out their weapons and were charging at Dr. Jaegal.

“You crazy murderer!”

“Go to hell you son of a bitch! I’m going to kill you!”

“Hahaha, good. Very good. A hero shouldn’t pretend to ignore the crisis of their colleagues. For the attitude score, I’ll give you full marks.”

Dr. Jaegal put down his weapon and aimed at the candidates with his fingertip as if he was joking.

“However, I can’t believe you’re rushing in without properly grasping the opponent’s capabilities. For the judgment score, you’re disqualified.”

Boom–!

“Kehuek!”

“Kyaaak!”

The candidates were simply hit by one finger, but they were thrown across the ground as they vomited blood.

Soon, those who were preparing an attack from a distance shouted.

“Attack!”

Psychic powers, magic, arrows, etc…Various projectiles were fired at the mechanical devil.

But looking at the attacks, Dr. Jaegal spoke leisurely.

“Oh, good. Long range attacks are more effective than close range attacks when dealing with large enemies. But…”

The cylinder mounted on the devil’s face emitted steam, and soon the jaw joint opened wide.

Then, all the projectiles were sucked into his mouth.

At some point, the projectiles had become lumped together, resulting in a high-density energy sphere.

The attacks they had fired with all their might, conversely, were now being directed at them.

“D-dodge!”

Boom–!

The high-speed attack hit the ground and created a huge explosion.

The candidates hurriedly scattered in all directions, but those who couldn’t escape the attack had disappeared without even being able to scream.

“Attacks without familiarizing yourself with the opponent are bound to come back as a bigger threat. Therefore, for the strategic score, you’re also disqualified.”

“Keuheuk! Shit!”

“It’s hopeless…”

The candidates, who had been moving together thus far as a group and had unknowingly developed a camaraderie, all sighed in unison.

Looking at them, Dr. Jaegal spoke.

“Hahaha! Don’t be so sad. No one will be able to leave here today anyway.”

The hybrid devil swung his beam sword as if he was excited. And each time, the candidates would run for cover with all their might.

“E-everyone, run to the portal! That’s our last hope!”

When someone shouted, they all rushed toward the portal.

However, Dr. Jaegal didn’t stand still and watch.

“Ridiculous!”

Clank–

Clank–

The devil’s left arm transformed into a vicious-looking gun barrel. Then, an energy mass shot out and flew towards the direction the candidates were running.

Boom–!

The blue portal, which was swirling brightly, broke like a toy.

“N-no!”

“Shit!”

There was no longer a way to escape from here. Driven to despair, screams could be heard all around.

‘It’s really the end this time…’

Mousin thought as he saw it.

Even without the ability to sense death, everyone here could feel that it would be difficult to survive.

Strangely enough, however, they weren’t afraid of death. They were just angry that they couldn’t punch Dr. Jaegal.

‘I couldn’t take revenge for him.’

As someone who was treated as a troublemaker in his family for having failed the hero exam for the last 10 years, there was no way he could win against such a terrifying monster.

Nevertheless, he gripped his tonfas.

Did it know how he felt?

The spirit weapon, which he would usually force to respond to his call, was now roaring with hot flames.

“Are you all going to die like cowards? At least the last breath…Like him, let’s behave like heroes.”

Raising their heads one by one, the surviving candidates gathered around Mousin.

“Yeah…we’re going to die anyway…Let’s give it a try.”

“Fuck! What do you mean die? We’re going to kill that son of a bitch and live!”

Those who once dreamed of becoming heroes, stood face to face against an impossible ordeal.

Mousin, who was at the forefront, shouted.

“Come on! You fucking midget. Stop dragging your feet and bring it on.”

“Hooo, how dare you insult the exam supervisor? You have guts. If it’s your wish to die like that…”

Dr. Jaegal raised his beam sword high. Steam spewed out the cylinder mounted on his body.

“You’re all disqualified!”

The moment the blade fell.

Flutter–

The candidates, who were gritting their teeth, at the end of their gaze, they could see a red cape flapping in the wind.

At the same time, a steel giant could be seen blocking the falling blade with a brilliant shield.

Boom–!

“Keeeuk!”

Dr. Jaegal scowled, taking a step back due to the backlash from the shield.

Soon, a familiar voice flowed from the steel giant.

“No! My reward!”

It was Noah’s voice that everyone thought was dead. After confirming the voice, Mousin’s nerves relaxed.

“Yes! I knew it!”

There was no way such a monstrous guy would die so easily.

Even though the opponent was an A-Rank hero that transcended the human limits, a groundless belief began to rise that if it was the boy, then he would be able to do it somehow.

“Haha…You fucking midget. Looks like you’re dead now.”

The laugh of Mousin, it resembled when he had bullied the weak in the past.

Classification: Battle Mount

Grade: A

Description: A masterpiece robot of the Four Heavenly King series created by the genius engineer Dr. Jaegal. Boasts durability as hard as earth. Someone seemed to have tried to improve it, but there’s no significant improvement to the original performance.

Success.

Thanks to synthesizing items that were related to vitality and recovery, the damaged area had returned to normal as expected.

It was quite heartbreaking to throw away the newly acquired items without having the chance to properly use them, but there was no other way now.

In any case…That was really dangerous.

My spine was still flowing with sweat when I recalled the blade that fell toward me.

I would have been helpless against it if the item synthesis hadn’t been completed and I hadn’t entered the robot in time.

And fortunately, there have been no additional attacks since. It seemed he didn’t know I was inside here.

Some time was bought.

The problem hasn’t been completely solved yet. I still have some time to spare, so I had to figure out the space I am currently in.

I thought the robot’s interior would be more complex and full of unidentified switches, but surprisingly, it was simple.

Mechanical parts covered my body like armor and curved screens occupied everything in front of me.

It was as if I was wearing a well-made VR game device.

But how do I move this?

Since I had synthesized it, I’m certain the ownership had been handed to me, but it would be a difficult situation if I needed to start the engine or something else.

As soon as I thought that, green characters suddenly rose above the darkened monitor. Fortunately, the language was Korean.

– Deletion of existing user data completed.

– Checking the boarding of a new user.

– Please enter your name.

Like when making a character for the first time, an empty space was blinking in front of my eyes.

Sure enough, that was how it worked.

“Choi Noah.”

After saying my name, a loading bar that resembled the shape of a human body appeared on the screen.

The ugly dwarf’s sense for creating a UI was rather excellent, as a gauge could be seen filling up starting at the feet.

– Entering data of new user biometric.

– Current synchronization rate…5% (5 minutes left).

5 minutes.

It wasn’t a long time under normal circumstances, but with the urgent ongoing battle, this short time felt too long.

Boom–!

Perhaps the guy was rampaging outside, but heavy vibrations were transmitted into the robot.

However, since the display was still off, I had no choice but to be nervous.

This was troublesome.

At this rate, the reward I have been struggling to get may be blown away.

Looking at the screen, the gauge was rising at a slow speed.

Please, hang in there a little longer.

While praying for the warriors’ safety, I stared at the screen.

And then finally, the loading was done.

“Finished!”

– Synchronization completed.

– Please set up a code for operating the robot.

My time was urgent, so what’s this? Not caring about this or that, I spat out a phrase that came to mind.

“God game level up quest!”

– Password setting completed.

– Operation will now start.

Immediately, the inside of the robot lit up. The surrounding situation was displayed on one of the screens in front of me.

The base camp had turned into ruins. The portal was broken into an unknown shape, and the land was terribly melted here and there.

And most of all, what made me angry the most was that the people I had struggled to bring here were bleeding and lying on the ground.

My reward!

The son of a bitch dwarf was seen raising his sword at the surviving candidates.

More than half were already dead…It was no longer acceptable for any more to die here.

My body instinctively moved.

The parts of the robot connected to my body were precisely interlocked, and the robot’s arms and legs immediately reacted.

Boom–!

I ran straight towards the candidates and activated .

“No! My reward!”

Boom–!

With the backlash, Dr. Jaegal took several steps back. Certainly, with the effect of resisting ‘evil’ and ‘demon’ properties, the skill boasted an excellent result.

And the man, who had come to his senses to some extent, looked at me with a very shocked expression.

“H-how are you alive? No…How are you controlling one of my Four Heavenly Kings?! No one should be able to move it except for me.”

Instead of answering, I rushed straight at the guy with my shield.

Boom–!

A shield charge as if I was using a siege weapon. Due to the collision, snow was instantly pushed aside and piled up.

It wasn’t really a skill, but considering the mass of my robot, it was a force that can’t be scoffed at.

But…

Like a nail stuck to the floor, Dr. Jaegal didn’t even budge.

“Keueheh, okay. I don’t know how you’re moving my robot, but it’s just scrap metal that I don’t need anymore. Rather, it would be nice to break down the remnants of my past to celebrate my rebirth.”

Saying so, he ignored my shield and threw me to the ground.

Boom–!

“Keuk!”

The ground cracked and the temporary provisional buildings near the base camp collapsed.

“As expected! No matter how advanced science is, nothing beats moving your own body.”

Boom–!

Boom–!

Dr. Jaegal began to kick me indiscriminately after I had fallen. Like a neighborhood thug that didn’t know any martial arts.

But even with such simple kicks, there was no way for my robot to respond.

My armor was crushed, and on one of the screens, a warning window for the damaged area was constantly blinking.

The difference in robots was too big.

It could be said that the weight class was adjusted to some extent once I had mounted the robot, but the gap between me and him was still as wide as that of kindergartener and middle school student.

On top of that, I didn’t even have a decent weapon.

“Haha! Die! Die! Die! Die!”

The guy who had been kicking me for a long time suddenly grabbed me by the leg and spun me as he threw.

Boom–!

I, who had bounced off the snowy field like a skipping stone, collapsed, and became entangled with the other Four Heavenly Kings’ bodies who stood as if they were ornaments in the base camp.

– Warning! The damage to the robot is serious.

– The user is encouraged to escape immediately.

– 60% power failure.

– 73% damage to the outer armor.

.

.

.

Red warning windows constantly rose in front of my eyes. Soon, Dr. Jaegal spoke.

“Let’s really end it now.”

Taking out his beam sword, he slowly began to walk toward me.

“My weak past self…It will disappear forever from today.”

There was no hurry in his steps. Perhaps he thought this was the end.

Well, I thought it would be hard to win. I couldn’t help but curse at his attitude.

But…

It would be a pity to give up here.

In fact, the moment I had succeeded in synthesizing this robot, I had an idea in my head.

If robot mounts were classified as items…

Then…What would happen if I synthesize the other series of robots here?

A while ago, I had to run suddenly to save the reward, but in fact, I had wanted to solve this question first.

I’m a gamer and the spirit of experimentation was one of the most important virtues of gamers.

I checked the information of the other Four Heavenly King series robots tangled next to me one by one.

I looked at these items and shouted.

“Synthesize!”

Then, with an intense light that only I could see, the tangled robots began to change.

Clank–

Clank–

The outer armors fell off as each part exquisitely fit and was reborn into a new shape.

Some of the parts turned into a sharp sword, while other parts turned into thick armor that covered the body.

And…

Clank–

Boom–

A red cape fluttered as my steel giant stood up and its pitch black body was reflected in the light.

[Set item has been identified.]

[Special effect is activated.]

[For fused items, you can separate them into individual items at any time.]

Grade: S

Description: A dream a genius engineer couldn’t reach.

“…”

Fusion? As someone who had played one round already, I didn’t even know there was such an option in the Synthesis menu.

Seeing the robot assembled like this, somehow, my heart began to heat up.

And in the end, I… couldn’t hold back my excitement and shouted.

“Yes! This is it!”

I didn’t care about winning or losing anymore. Because…
