442 Reunion with Helliem 5 (1/2)

”Woah!”

”That is… awesome!”

”OMG! This is my first time seeing the Warrior's Toukon!”

”Only you? It's my first time seeing it as well. It's a skill that can be acquired only when a Martial Arts user turns level 350… and we get to see that? A level 350 of the hidden class martial arts is a deadly one and a rare class.”

”Hmm…there aren't more than three users with level more than 350 of the martial arts class on the server.”

A huge screen in front of the computer room.

The golden brilliance of the 'Warrior's Toukon' skill filled the big screen.

The virtual reality students who were watching Ian's battle wowed in excitement.

”Wow! So Jin noona your control on those crystal balls are no Joke huh.”

”Yeah, well, I'm not the exclusive editor for Jinsung senior for nothing.”

The students were awed by the series of scenes that they saw. The ranker's movements were being captured very neatly.

So Jin was concentrating so much on the computer that she started to sweat and not hear her surroundings.

She was moving the mouse like a pro-gamer who never let their hands stay free.

'Phew, this really still feels a bit raw…'

In the beginning, to film a video while controlling the crystal balls was more difficult than one would think of.

Not too long ago, a company that shot personal videos and photos of individual users was created.

Of course, it was possible for anyone to just shoot their own content, but it was difficult to use multiple crystal balls at once like So Jin.

Besides, the one being captured was Ian.

And when recording the video footage of Ian's battle, editors weren't just going to have one or two concerns because unpredictable things occur constantly.

They needed a high level of observation and focus.

The same situation happened today.

'Uh, what is this now? The Warrior's Toukon skill has been triggered, won't he connect it with some other high-impact skills?'

So Jin constantly edited the videos of Ian so she gained considerable knowledge about Kailan.

And yet the Warrior's Toukon, one of the most famous skills in the Martial Arts class, was something she wasn't aware of.

In addition, when one wants to shoot the video of Ian, an understanding of the game was fairly necessary.

So, So Jin had an understanding of the game to the level of a few commentators.

However, she didn't seem to fully comprehend the situation that was currently happening.

'The timing was spot-on, why are they staying still?'

So Jin expected a wide-area skill to destroy the Undead, which was why she took the crystal balls high up the sky.

A wide-area skill that could annihilate all the enemies at once filled the screen.

However, all the Undead who were affected by the Warrior's Toukon immediately rushed back to avoid getting any more damage. So Jin's prediction of them dying went sideways.

'What? What are you trying to do?'

So Jin's eyes were scanning the whole battlefield.

It was because a perfect scene could only be captured when one could predict where the crystal balls should go next.

Suddenly, a familiar system message was heard from the loudspeaker in the computer lab.

[Darkness… will set upon.]

***

All the Warlocks, including the hidden classes, had a skill that they could learn once they reach level 300.

The skill was 'Animate Dead'.

Of course, if one was a high-level hidden class Warlock like Hoonie, then one could learn it at a faster pace, but most warlocks gain the skill 'Animate Dead' at level 300.

The skill was a special skill that was enough to not divide the 'Warlock' class before reaching level 300.

It was a skill that could resurrect all units that died in battle. A skill that could reverse the flow of the battle.

In particular, when a large number of monsters were concentrated like what was currently happening now, the more powerful Animate Dead would be.

The units who would be revived by Animate Dead would become an Undead within 10 seconds of their death.

The skill was best used in battles that were happening in a vast area.

'To wipe them all at once… we need to start with Breath and then pour out all our remaining attacks. Once we are out of skills, that's when we will use Animate Dead…'

There was nothing more troublesome than having their enemies survive even after they use all of their high-level skills.

That would've been nothing less than an embarrassing situation.

However, if one wasn't familiar with the concept of Animate Dead, then one might think like this.

'Shouldn't Hoonie activate the Animate Dead and pre-empt the bodies?'

However, it wasn't that easy.

Animate Dead was a high ranked black magic skill that had to be cast from the sidelines. Its casting time decreases as its level got higher.

The Lich Mage was almost 100 level higher than Hoonie who hadn't reached 400 yet, and it was a difference that couldn't be overcome by good control alone.

The Undead kept reviving because of that terrible monster called the Lich Mage.

So in order to win the battle, the first thing they had to do was to get rid of the Lich Mage.

Otherwise, Ian wouldn't be victorious today.

”Levya, provide Elcarix with a light shield!”

Levya immediately cast the spell as Ian requested.

”Okay!”

Levya didn't understand why Ian would choose to have her cast that skill.

[Party member 'Levya' used 'Guardian of Light' on familiar 'Elcarix'.]

[The defense of 'Elcarix' has increased by 78% for 60 seconds.]

The Guardian of Light was a low tier buff skill that a Priest class could learn before the level of 100.

Its coefficient was very high. However, it lasted for only a minute and could only buff just one target. It was a skill that was rarely used.

But in the present situation, the Guardian of Light skill, was the best choice.

Elcarix's defense would increase tremendously after she used the Dragonic Barrier as well.

The defense buff that was given to Elcarix would be connected to all the party members.

As soon as the two skills combined, the short duration of the Guardian of Light skill would be extended once the Dragonic Barrier's effects had been triggered.

The single target defense buff 'Guardian of Light' became a wide-area buff due to Ian's amazing skill application.

Ian issued an order once again,

”Levya, get ready to cast an offensive skill!”

Again, Levya was confused as to why Ian would ask her to do that.

”Huh? How about the heal?”

”You won't have to heal for the next 10 minutes.”

”…?”
