The World-Class Extra’s Walkthrough - Chapter 142
Episode 142
: Speed up
Gerard Gunther’s scale armor.
In the thick jungle, it was hanging on tree vines that were intertwined and towered like pillars.
The armor, heavily rusted and dirty over time, looked like an abandoned mannequin standing there.
“….”
It was the image of the soul left behind by a hero who ran endlessly across this continent a long time ago and commanded the world.
But now the owner is nowhere to be found.
Only the miserable traces he left behind remained here, staring at us like a ghost.
Carls opened his mouth to me, who was staring blankly at the armor.
“Lowering. Look over there.”
“huh?”
When I turned my gaze to follow the guy’s nod, I saw something quite unexpected waiting for me.
“…what? “Is this Lord Iesta?”
“you’re right.”
A little distance away from where the armor wrapped in vines was standing.
The very Rodrigo Iesta in question was keeping his position.
However, the appearance he was taking now was somewhat surprising.
He was confronting multiple enemies with his sword drawn, his back facing Gerard Gunther’s scale armor.
Excluding him, eight disobedient knights surrounded Rodrigo and pointed their swords at him.
In other words, an infighting broke out among the knights who said they would not follow me.
Carls and I couldn’t help but be embarrassed by that sight.
“Why are you doing this to yourself?”
“That’s right. “I don’t think it’s a play.”
“Did you fight?”
“Hmm, maybe there was some disagreement? They couldn’t agree on whether to stab him from the front or from behind…” “
…Look at what that guy called Howie is talking about?”
Anyway, I had no reason to intervene right away, so I needed to watch for a while.
‘They all rebelled against me, so why are we suddenly fighting among ourselves?’
And one more thing.
‘Where is Salet Firddin, who fired the signal?’
I think that lady driver would know about this situation.
It was right then.
“Disciple! “Something is coming!”
“Pi Yong! Come on!”
Tyrvaen and Hael tensed and took a step back.
Coo coo coo coo….
Something unusual is running from the other side of the jungle.
I could feel it clearly too.
Those beings were knights whose number had increased to dozens.
“…!”
Apparently, there were only 21 knights that I brought from Auracus… but
the number of knights that appeared through the jungle now seemed to be more than 50.
And we are in a noisy battle among ourselves again.
My clan members couldn’t help but be very embarrassed by that sight.
“Lord Sicilion!”
“oh my god! “What is this all of a sudden!”
“Carls! “Go away!”
Senis Edrin, who had been hiding in my shadow this whole time, came out and grabbed Carls’ shoulder.
It was such a shocking situation.
Therefore, everyone quickly drew their weapons and tried to fight this situation.
“no! Everyone, don’t pull out your sword!”
I knew what was going on, so I shouted loudly to stop them.
I explained as simply as possible to the clan members who looked back blankly.
“Those are the ghosts of the jungle. The ghost sword isn’t real, so it doesn’t actually hurt you. But once you draw your sword and get involved in a fight, it’s hard to get out again.”
…Because among these ghosts, there are actually real knights mixed in.
Especially, unless you understand this situation like me, I had to see that there was no way out.
It was probably like an Asura hell where there was no end to fighting.
So I told them not to draw their swords and we just retreated little by little to avoid the knights’ battle.
‘If Rodrigo attacked me, I was planning to deal with it by summoning the ghosts of the jungle…’ I
never expected that the situation would turn out this way.
‘For the ghosts of the jungle to appear, there must be a starting point for a fight, right? ‘Why on earth did the knights start fighting each other?’
It was impossible to tell now that the knights and ghosts were all mixed up.
“Then what should we do now? Do we have to leave like this?”
“You’re leaving here? So what happens to the Blue Flame Knights? Is it really something that should be thrown away with the ghosts?”
Kals and Tyrvaen’s hands holding the sword hilt and staff were shaking.
When I glanced back, I saw that Hael and Senis were also similar.
An unfamiliar environment called the ‘jungle’ that has never been experienced in the Imperial Territory.
And an eerie entity called a ‘ghost’ that imitates the appearance of those holding the sword and drives them to death.
The combination of these two things was approaching them with quite a bit of fear.
but.
“Grrrrrr…”
Piyong let out a low cry as if he felt something and was glaring at the other side of the jungle.
This was where Gérard’s armor was located.
Right now, he was flashing red eyes at me as if that was where we were going to end up.
“…As expected, you know something.”
I smiled slightly.
And then he slowly stepped forward.
A jungle that has become so chaotic that it cannot be touched.
In a chaotic situation, the knights of the empire were fighting as best they could.
“Lowering! These are fake articles! “Hurry and take cover!”
“no! Those who say that are fake! You’re using a strange hex! Run away! Come on!”
In the meantime, the knights of the Blue Flame Knights were falling down, shouting out their loyalty to me.
I too was in a situation where I couldn’t tell who was a ghost and who was a real knight.
‘Is it possible with Hael’s Jinma Eye?’
No, even that was impossible in such a chaotic battlefield.
And above all….
‘The ghosts of the jungle will disappear only when the Revolutionary Sword’s successor event is properly ended.’
So, rather than suppressing or stopping these fights, I had to go ahead as I had originally planned.
‘…opening Gérard’s mansion.’
Add one more to this.
‘Let’s use these ghosts to conquer the mansion.’
In fact, ever since I realized that the ghosts of the jungle had appeared, I have been thinking about ways to use them in reverse.
‘Actually, there is a strategy to drag these ghosts into Gerard’s mansion.’
If there were jungles and ghosts outside Gerard’s mansion.
There were defense devices and guardians inside the mansion.
So, when I drag the ghosts of this jungle into the house, they all get mixed up and literally turn into chaos.
This strategy was to make the inside of Gerard’s mansion a mess and neutralize the defense devices and guardians.
‘But it also has its drawbacks.’
This meant that the survival of the knights mixed among those ghosts could not be guaranteed.
Since the defense mechanism protecting the inside of the mansion had no eyes, knights who were not ghosts could have been caught in the act and died.
But…
‘If the Blue Flame Knights follow my will, they won’t come after me.’
On the other hand, disobedient knights who want to devour me will come after me.
‘Then
go ahead and go.
I made up my mind and started walking.
And he gave a simple request to those left behind.
“Never pull out your sword. Just hold on for 5 minutes. okay?”
Carls nodded blankly at my firm words.
“Come on Piyong!”
“Beep!”
“Okay, let’s go!”
I separated everyone and started running, accompanied only by Piyong.
Then the eyes of the knights who were fighting turned to me.
“My dear!”
Okay. it’s me.
“It’s not possible! “It’s dangerous!”
Do they even know what the danger is?
“Where are you going now? “Come here!”
…That thing just now is definitely a ghost.
Shadows approaching me with dangerous eyes flashing.
They were trying to somehow involve me in their fight and make me a sacrifice to the jungle.
‘But it’s a guess, isn’t it?’
I activated the skill I was preparing by raising my middle finger at them.
It was a new hiding technology given by Aeolem.
[Special Skill: Cold-Blooded]
Shuuuk!
The shadow under the soles of my feet rose up, wrapping around my ankles.
And then an eerie chill that made me faint took hold of me.
‘Cold-blooded.’
A stealth skill that instantly reverses the body’s energy activity into the negative realm to escape the enemy’s senses.
The effect was very brief, but it was enough to escape the detection abilities of these ghosts…
[Movement skill: Summon]
[Evasion skill: Gale’s Request]
Shuuuuuck!
He increased his movement speed to the maximum and ran like a flash of light.
In an instant, I was standing in front of Gerard’s armor.
“Whew….”
“Beep! “Beep!”
Piyong couldn’t keep up with my speed and was spreading his wings in a hurry.
But I smiled leisurely.
“You can just stay there, Piyong.”
“Pin?”
“Now the mansion will unfold.”
At the same time, I boldly stretched out my hand toward Gerard’s scale armor.
The moment my fingertips touched the armor that had turned black in the passage of time.
thud.
The earth shook.
And something began to rise from deep in the ground.
‘Gérard Gunther’s old mansion.’
A mansion that had been buried and kept intact under the jungle was revealed by powerful magic.
* * *
The jungle was no longer a jungle.
The place where knights and ghosts fought together became the garden of a mansion.
The entrance to the mansion appeared where Piyong was about to spread his wings.
So, it was enough for him to be there.
I moved past the standing knights and motioned to Piyong.
“Pi Yong! “Quickly knock down the door!”
“Sweet!”
Kwasik!
The mansion’s old door shattered into pieces just from the hatchling’s body hitting it.
And the moment I hurriedly stepped into it.
[The special event ‘Descendants of the Revolutionary Sword’ begins!]
[From now on, you can explore the inside of the old house of the legendary character ‘Gérard Gunther’ for 5 minutes.]
[Please observe the given time!]
…5 minutes .
That was all the time I could use here.
‘I’m going to sweep everything in there.’
Gaia’s sword technique, the seal of the black mark, the essence of the ancient dragon…
and even the epitaph of heaven and earth.
That was when they came after me.
“Lowering! “I told you it was dangerous to do this!”
The knights, each with their own sword drawn, came rushing in, led by Rodrigo Iesta.
But I knew.
‘…The placenta among you is not real, but a ghost.’
Even if it was real, I also knew that they were people who could stab me in the back.
Therefore, I had no hesitation in entrusting them with the role of tampering with the defense system of this mansion.
‘Try to move around as much as possible.’
The more I do that, the faster I can move.
That meant I could get even more rewards.
But after about a minute.
“…what?”
As I was running inside the mansion looking for the black seal, I was a little confused.
‘It seems like something is subtly different?’
Somehow, there was something different from the mansion I remembered.
That is….
“Were the lights in this hallway always brightly lit like this?”
…I guess not?
With the noise of fights happening here and there in the mansion.
“….”
A very ominous feeling was hitting my back.
‘It’s different from the original.’
There is a hidden secret in this mansion.
