Magic Is Learned For Nothing [EN]: Chapter 479

Stormy Hills 1

“Desert Chamber?”

“What’s that?”

“Are you perhaps referring to one of the kingdom’s three forbidden zones?”

The vassals murmured among themselves.

Dreyzer’s face turned pale.

‘Desert Chamber!’

The kingdom had four famous novels:

– *The Foreign Legion of Horror.*

– *Dragon Balls.*

– *Golem Taekwon V.*

– *Slam Talk.*

The second novel mentioned a device similar to the ‘Desert Chamber.’

One year inside was equivalent to one day outside.

The gravity in the Desert Chamber was ten times that of the outside world. Just standing still would make your body feel ten times heavier. The weather was humid and hot, making it difficult to breathe.

The gravity could be adjusted from the outside.

Before entering, the gravity could be increased to 10, 20, 30 times… up to a maximum of 100 times.

Dreyzer fixed the gravity at 10 times and reached 10-star level in just a few days.

But enduring it there was not as easy as he thought. More than once or twice, he thought he would die there.

“Preetia.”

Legion looked at Preetia.

He needed her permission to use the Desert Chamber. He had already asked for it.

But there was something he hadn’t revealed yet.

Preetia rose from her seat and scanned the surroundings. Just her standing up seemed to raise the temperature around her by several degrees.

It was an immense presence.

All the warriors in the kingdom who were known to be strong were gathered here, but only a few could meet her gaze and hold their heads high.

That was how overwhelming Preetia’s aura was.

“Has anyone here heard of the name Preetia?” Legion asked.

“I heard that Preetia was the name of a crazy dragon who burned down this entire area 250 years ago,” Piranha said, clueless.

“I heard she was crazy about pretty boys. Rumor has it that the number of pretty boys captured by Preetia or whatever is up to 700. In short, she’s a monster obsessed with that… a so-called sex monster.” Jo Nane relentlessly trashed Preetia, unaware that his life was on the line.

Legion glanced at Preetia. *Ah, she’s pissed.*

*I need to cut this off quickly.*

“Okay, that crazy dragon has nothing to do with this Preetia. Well, Preetia *is* a dragon, but…”

“……”

Everyone froze.

*What! Is! She? Who is a dragon?*

“Let me introduce you to Worm-class Dragon Preetia! Everyone, applause! She’s a Worm-class Dragon, but she says she has the combat power of an Ancient-class. She’s incredibly strong, right? Hurry up and applaud!”

Legion glared at his exclusive servants.

“Applaud, you bastards!”

“Ah, yes.”

The exclusive servants, who had been gaping in surprise, applauded wildly. Only then did the vassals, who were slowly regaining their senses, reluctantly applaud.

Preetia glared at those people.

She definitely looked unhappy.

She spoke to the people.

“Don’t run away. Don’t give up either. If you’re going to die, die inside the Desert Chamber. I’m going to make you all incredibly strong. Ah! By the way, I’m going into the Desert Chamber too. Anyone who goes in with me, consider yourselves dead.”

They realized it now.

They should have showered Preetia with praise.

They looked at Legion with resentful eyes. If they had been given just a little information about Preetia, this wouldn’t have happened.

They were screwed.

A huge disaster seemed to be blocking their path.

In reality, the disaster of the Desert Chamber and Preetia was standing before them.

* * *

Bacon carefully read the information written at the entrance of the Desert Chamber.

-1. Warriors below 5-star level, get lost. You’ll die as soon as you enter. Same goes for mages below 5-circle.

-2. There’s a spring of burning water inside. You don’t have to worry about water. Meals are okay too. You won’t die of starvation. You can bring magic-enhancing nutrients.

In fact, Bacon saw over 300 pills. They were magic-enhancing pills specially made by Legion.

The smell was atrocious. It smelled like pills made by mixing horse dung. He didn’t think he could eat them, but he had no choice but to take them into the Desert Chamber because Legion threatened to send him to the Aoji coal mine if he didn’t eat one every day.

These were special pills that Legion had asked Baserabap to make.

Baserabap and the mages of the Magic Tower did not enter the Desert Chamber.

Of course, combat mages did, but there were quite a few mages who didn’t.

That meant there were many mages below 5-circle.

Baserabap made this with the mages who didn’t enter the Desert Chamber.

A special magic-enhancing pill made by using all the elixirs in the Magic Tower.

If you take it steadily in the Desert Chamber, you will see at least a 20% increase in magic power.

It is a magic-enhancing pill made using all the secret herbs. With this, the Magic Tower will be weakened for a while.

They couldn’t hide the secret herbs because they were worried about that.

If the kingdom falls, the Magic Tower will be finished anyway.

‘Pouring all our strength!’ was the time to use that phrase.

-3. It is recommended to set the gravity to 10 times. If you are greedy and set it to dozens of times, you may die without making a sound like a cockroach hit by a slipper as soon as you enter.

-4. Write your will before entering.

-5. Good luck.

Bacon saw the exclusive servants and dozens of regular soldiers.

Even if they gathered all the knights and mages above 5-star level, they wouldn’t reach 100 people.

In fact, this alone was an enormous force.

It was not a force that an ordinary nobleman could have.

Among the other nobles who had joined the Legion Duchy, there were fewer than 10 who had abilities above 5-star or 5-circle.

That was how ridiculously strong the warriors belonging to the Legion Duchy were.

However-

Compared to the enemies, they looked too small and pathetic.

“We are the first unit. Do you know that?”

“Yes! We know.”

First unit. All humans, orcs, and goblins with abilities above 5-star and 5-circle enter at once.

The total number of the three races exceeds 200.

Second unit. Dreyzer, Lich Mamon, Preetia, and the top-tier warriors enter the Desert Chamber.

Third unit. Legion says he will use the room alone. He was heavily criticized by others, but he insisted on using it alone.

Preetia said to him.

“Use it alone or not. Do whatever you want. Anyway, when our second unit comes out, we can finish off the Stone Head Church guys enough.”

“Then thank you.”

Legion smiled and replied.

That’s how the order from the first unit to the third unit was decided.

Some might say this.

Shouldn’t Legion, Dreyzer, Lich Mamon, and Preetia be put in the first unit?

That’s a really boring idea.

Originally, the main character has to go through trials and appear at the end. So Legion is the third unit.

Bacon looked at Legion. The subordinates also turned their heads to Legion.

They give a splendid military salute.

Legion was embarrassed.

*Hey! Hey! Don’t do it to me first! Please! Ah, damn it. They’re doing it first.*

King Lauzel was right next to him. The minimum etiquette must be observed even if the situation is not very good. If he makes a mistake, it could be seen as ignoring the king.

*Look. The face of Duke Sijinpi is changing like he ate poop! That won’t do.*

Legion did not accept Bacon’s military salute. He immediately turned his body to the side and knelt on one knee.

“Your Majesty! Your Majesty’s loyal subordinates are said to be entering the Desert Chamber to become stronger at the risk of their lives. Please be considerate!”

King Lauzel knew why Legion was doing this. *He’s really timid when he’s like this. I don’t nitpick about things like that.* He smiled and said.

“What do you mean be considerate? Brother, don’t worry. Aren’t they your subordinates? They greeted you first without even realizing it. I don’t mind. I just hope they come back safely and defeat the Stone Head Church fanatics wonderfully.”

“Ah! Merciful King!”

Legion flatters as much as possible.

*Look at that. Look. Duke Sijinpi! Lasers are coming out of his eyes.*

Legion, who straightened his knees, looked at Bacon.

“Magical Sword King Bacon, listen.”

“Yes, Your Excellency!”

“Don’t die!”

“Yes!”

“Become stronger!”

“Yes!”

“See you again!”

“Yes!”

Bacon and 200 warriors and mages entered the Desert Chamber.

“Close the gate!”

The soldiers closed the door of the Desert Chamber.

Then one of them slipped and accidentally touched the gravity control device.

When Bacon entered, the gravity was 10 times, but….

The soldier accidentally changed the position to 30 times.

The surprised soldier looked around.

*Thank goodness. No one noticed.*

He stroked his chest.

He could just change it back to 10 times….

The soldier was relieved that he wasn’t caught and left it fixed at 30 times gravity.

The warriors who entered the Desert Chamber immediately-

“Ugh! Damn it, my leg is twisted.”

“Ugh! I’m turning into a squid. I’m turning into a squid. I can’t even stand up.”

“I’m going to die if I stay here! Is this really 10 times gravity? S, save me!”

-Krrr.(Ogre is dying! Please open the door.)

Their voices are not heard outside.

In order for them to come out, it must be one day in this time. One year in that time must pass.

Ancient-class Dragon Ulbibyeo.

Originally from the Blue Dragon lineage, but when you become an Ancient-class, you transcend your lineage.

The seven dragons with mighty powers who are the closest beings to the divine class.

They are arrogant and cruel.

They were by no means benevolent figures.

Preetia, who has the power of an Ancient-class and fights against her own race with Legion, is an exception.

Ulbibyeo and the seven Worm-class dragons, and the 30,000-strong Guardian Corps were slowly advancing east in a different direction from the Undead Legion.

They had nothing to be busy about.

Time and age were always on their side.

Kukukukung!

A castle explodes and collapses.

Worm-class Dragons Cantata and Priscilla’s breaths hit the castle.

Cantata uses poison breath.

Priscilla uses flame-type breath.

When the two breaths combined and exploded, the entire castle collapsed.

It is a medium-sized castle.

It is estimated that up to 100,000 people gathered. The military is about 10,000 to 20,000.

So far, they have seen a significant number of refugees.

Ulbibyeo and the dragons jokingly dropped magic on their heads and killed them.

“Killing 1212 people. How about it?”

“That would be fun. Should I go first?”

“Let’s take turns.”

They play games like that.

Why?

Because it’s boring.

Anyway, except for the Stone Head Church’s ‘New Humans,’ the ‘Old Humans’ are extinct.

Therefore, they had no intention of showing mercy to those who would become extinct.

The number of refugees they made disappear in that way exceeds hundreds of thousands.

Among them were a significant number of children, women, and the elderly, but they didn’t care.

Extinct inferior races do not enter their eyes.

It was the same this time.

The castle put up a desperate fight, firing quarrels [heavy, square-headed bolts for crossbows], arrows, and magic, but not a single one reached the dragons and the Guardian Corps.

The humans were screaming and disappearing in the flames without inflicting any damage on them.

But they wouldn’t know.

That there were those who had been watching the dragons and the Guardian Corps from a while ago.

-Krrr….(Those bastards…….)

Murderous intent explodes from Sepia’s eyes, who has completed an unimaginable upgrade.
