Raided The God’S Warehouse [EN]: Chapter 46

Raiding the Demon God’s Vault – Episode 46

-Time remaining until ‘Tutorial Third Act – Collision’: 40 hours, 20 minutes

“We’re here!”

As soon as Se-un nodded, Park Jung-pil shouted at the top of his lungs.

Finally, they had arrived at the edge of the stage where the third tutorial would take place.

Even if it wasn’t for Se-un, everyone could easily tell that this was the end of the stage.

“Wow, this cliff is no joke. I can’t even see the bottom. It’s like looking at the entrance to hell.”

“The slope is steep, and it looks like the entrance to hell.”

A sheer cliff.

As Park Jung-pil said, the bottom was hidden in pitch-black darkness, making it impossible to see, and a sharp wind was raging above it.

At this rate, it didn’t seem possible to cross even with wings.

Moreover, the cliff on the opposite side was even higher than this one, so there was no way to know what existed beyond it.

Well, it was a different story for Se-un.

“Se-un, we should set up a base here as planned, right?”

“If we set up a base with the cliff behind us, guarding will be much easier.”

“Well, that cliff looks impossible to fly over or climb. Except for you, Se-un.”

Se-un shook his head.

The cliff behind them marked the boundary of the area designated by the system for the third tutorial.

As a player who had grown up under the system, even Se-un couldn’t cross that cliff.

And that meant…

‘There’s no need to worry about intruders.’

It meant a natural fortress provided by nature.

“Ah-reum, Da-un. I’m counting on you.”

“Yes, sis!”

“I thought I was going to die because my hands were itching so much.”

“Finally, it’s our time to shine!”

-The constellation, ‘Black Bird,’ says it would be good to install a sharp fence to block the enemies first.

-The constellation, ‘Great Bird,’ suggests installing a high watchtower.

Because they had been constantly moving, the twins had hardly had a chance to use their powers.

At best, just managing the wagon?

Perhaps because of that, the twins’ faces were more lively than usual now that it was their turn.

The constellations watching them also seemed a little excited.

“Blood Wolf oppa [Korean honorific for older brother/male acquaintance]! Can I ask you for some wood again this time?”

“Sure.”

“Awesome!”

“I’ll go with you.”

“Hyung-nim [Another Korean honorific for older brother/male acquaintance, used by males], please take me with you!”

Now that they had arrived at their target location, Se-un also stepped up to help set up the base.

In fact, he hadn’t initially intended to be this involved. Just setting up shop here was as good as passing the third act of the tutorial.

Most players fought at the entrance of the area, and there were hardly any cases of arriving here and waging a siege.

However, Se-un’s thoughts changed while dealing with Pan.

‘Even if Pan stepped up impatiently, I can’t say for sure that there aren’t any more constellations with malicious intent.’

Mamon had blocked communications with the constellations.

Se-un didn’t want to attract attention, so he initially thought it was just convenient. But now that communications were blocked, it seemed that there were quite a few constellations who felt that their pride had been hurt, not just those who were simply curious, like Pan.

The best time for them to step up was now, during the third act of the tutorial.

‘This is a place that legally encourages battles between players.’

Originally, the mission was simply to survive until half of the players disappeared, but if there was a constellation who held a grudge against Se-un…

They might give a revelation to the clan they were watching, telling them to attack Se-un.

Se-un’s clan was very strong, even to his eyes, but he shouldn’t underestimate the power of other clans chosen by the constellations.

And as always, his uneasy predictions were not wrong.

* * *

[‘Tutorial Third Act – Collision’ is starting.]

-Survive until the number of players participating in the tutorial is halved.

-During ‘Collision,’ you can acquire the full contribution points of the players you defeat.

Finally, the third act of the tutorial had begun.

The goal was simple.

To survive.

At that overly simple explanation, the players who had barely passed the second act wore bewildered expressions.

“Are monsters going to appear again?”

“I don’t think so? The monsters over there are all still…….”

The players who remembered the first act of the tutorial gripped their weapons tightly. However, the monsters showed no signs of moving.

Meanwhile, one player muttered quietly as he stared at the last message that had appeared before his eyes.

“But to acquire the contribution points of the players we defeat, what does that mean?”

“That’s…….”

Flinch!

In that instant, the player who understood the last message could feel goosebumps rising on his spine.

The sound of swallowing could be heard here and there.

No way, it can’t be. There’s no way.

However, before long, the terrible incident occurred with a scream.

“Attack!”

“Wa, wait! Who are you guys! Why are you attacking us!”

“You morons, you still don’t understand? No wonder you couldn’t survive with even ten people with brains that don’t work like that.”

“We’re the same human…… Kuh-heok!”

The war of players, no, clans, unfolded.

After only seeing monsters since arriving at the tutorial, they had finally encountered humans, but there was no time for friendly handshakes.

Having already survived two trials, they chose to fight for survival rather than feel a sense of kinship with the same humans.

“Sa, save me! How did I survive all the way here!”

“Thank you. Thanks to you, I’ll be able to live.”

Swish!

They didn’t care about monsters.

Everyone looked for seemingly easy players to attack in order to survive. They only had to survive until half of them were left, so they thought they only needed to kill one person each.

The entrance of the plain was instantly stained with red blood.

The salty smell of iron spread on the wind.

In the meantime.

In the middle of the plain, quite far from the entrance, one clan was moving to the end of the plain, avoiding people.

-The constellation, ‘Gruff White-Haired Old Man,’ roars that now is the perfect opportunity.

“If we defeat only that guy, will you really give us your power?”

-The constellation, ‘Gruff White-Haired Old Man,’ frowns even more deeply on his already gruff face, asking if you intend to make him repeat the same words to you.

“I understand. I will destroy not only that guy but also his entire clan.”

-The constellation, ‘Gruff White-Haired Old Man,’ shouts to show him with actions rather than words.

The man who finished answering headed towards the end of the prairie with an expressionless face.

Although he wasn’t showing it at all on the outside, the man’s inner thoughts were bubbling and boiling, something that even the constellation couldn’t see.

‘I’m not a slave, so why are you being so presumptuous!’

Constellation, Gruff White-Haired Old Man.

It was a constellation that had suddenly shown interest in the man’s clan while they were performing the first act of the tutorial.

At first, he gave them various help, such as giving them power related to martial arts, so they followed his words as if they were worshiping a god, but the constellation’s interference became more and more severe.

He forbade them from avoiding traps even when they were visible, and ordered them to face the monsters’ surprise attacks head-on even when they noticed them.

In addition, he intervened in all sorts of things, including their private lives.

Thanks to this, they were able to pass the tutorial, but their image of the constellation deteriorated, and the stress of the clan members piled up day by day.

‘If I just receive the power this time……!’

The man thought.

That this was the last time.

He was following him now because he still needed more power, but he would get rid of that noisy constellation as soon as he stabilized.

Although he couldn’t say it because he was afraid of being caught by the constellation, all of the men’s clan had the same thought.

‘By the way, they’ve gone pretty far.’

I thought they would be settled in the middle at best.

The prairie is already coming to an end.

However, there was one strange thing.

‘There are no monsters……?’

It wasn’t just that there were no monsters on the way. Even when he looked around widely, he couldn’t see a single monster.

Even the entrance on the opposite side where he had arrived was full of monsters in each area.

Are there originally fewer monsters in the depths?

Or maybe…….

‘No way.’

The man shook his head.

That can’t be.

To defeat all these monsters and enter the depths, there’s no way that’s possible.

In the meantime, the appearance of the enemy camp finally came into view.

“Leader! There!”

“What is that?”

A fortress at the edge of the cliff.

Yes, it was a fortress.

With two wagons in the center, there was a cliff that looked like it had been cut down in the back, and sharp thorn fences were sticking out in front of it.

Thanks to the high watchtower, dozens of players inside were already preparing to face the enemy.

“Constellation-nim, that’s…….”

-The constellation, ‘Gruff White-Haired Old Man,’ shouts and spits, asking why you’re not rushing in.

The man gritted his teeth.

He had expected it wouldn’t be easy because the constellation had mentioned it from the beginning, but to that extent.

Now that the third act of the tutorial had just begun, if they were entrenched at the end of the area, it was as good as guaranteeing their skills.

At that time.

“Le, Leader! There!”

“Who are those guys?”

On the way to the cliff, a new clan caught their eye.

They naturally took a defensive posture, but the atmosphere seemed a little subtle.

-The constellation, ‘Gruff White-Haired Old Man,’ says that the enemy of my enemy is my friend, referring to WuYueTogetherBoat (a Chinese idiom about putting aside differences in times of crisis), and demands that you cooperate with them.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

‘If this happens, there’s a chance.’

He didn’t know what was going on, but it seemed that they were hated not only by their constellation, ‘Gruff White-Haired Old Man,’ but also by other constellations.

He was a little intimidated by the appearance of the fortress, but with this number, there was no problem.

The man, who had regained his confidence, shouted at the clan members following behind.

“Let’s drop those guys off the cliff!”

“Woaaaaah!”

-The constellation, ‘Gruff White-Haired Old Man,’ burns with revenge for the existence that dared to block him!

A loud shout that echoed through the plains.

However, their rush had to stop before long.

Thud, thud!

“Cough?”

What is going on?

The clan members who were rushing forward with vigor fell out pathetically as if they had hit a transparent glass wall.

However, even when he looked again, he couldn’t see any walls.

The opposing forces, who had tacitly formed an alliance, also noticed something was wrong and fired a fireball from their hands.

Whoosh!

Kwakwakwang!

It was also blocked by a transparent wall and faded away in vain.

Only then did the man notice something and concentrate his internal energy on his pupils, and he saw a huge wall surrounding the fortress.

It was made of mana, like a fortress wall, and it was clearly…

“……Barrier?”

It was a barrier.

After breaking through the second act of the tutorial, they had cleared the monsters in the remaining time, arrived at the edge, and set up a fortress, and they had even set up a barrier?

No matter how he thought about it, it was impossible, but Se-un, who could be said to be the owner of the fortress, had the authority to make the impossible possible.

-The Vault of Greed has been opened.

[Carmelder-style Defense Magic Circle]

– A simple defense magic circle devised by Carmelder, one of the executives of the Black Tower. The duration is not long, but it is an all-purpose magic circle that blocks both the opponent’s attacks and intrusions.

The man’s spine tingled as he realized that.

Unless the opponent was an idiot, they would surely counterattack, taking advantage of the gap where their advance was blocked by the barrier.

And as if to prove this.

“Mi, crazy!”

“What is that!”

“Ru, run away!”

All sorts of attacks, including arrows and magic, began to pour out from the fortress.
