123 – A Feast of Giant Birds and Bugs
The youngest members, Ha-eun and Eun-cheol, are included, and Ling-Ling and Isabella are in the process of overcoming trauma.
Ahn Eun-hye also doesn’t know what will happen when she thinks about the parasitic bugs.
She was lucky that she had Kim Hyun-ah and her uncle, and that the pregnant Jang Jin-sol was not chosen.
– Oh no!!
– Sigh… This is almost the worst of all cases…
– Ha-eun? Are you okay? If you’re scared, you can raise your hand right away, okay?

– Mom, if we raise our hands, won’t we lose?
– You can lose, Ha-eun. You can really lose, okay?
– Ah, why don’t you pick me!!
– Seol and Kahi should have been chosen…
– So, soju! Soju!!
– Uncle, what are you going to do if you go home after drinking?
‘I understand that everyone is a little confused.’
The item called elixir was something that made people so desperate.
And after a while, the bodies of the people who were selected folded like paper in an instant and escaped the space.

“Awww?!”
The event started with Isabella’s cute shout.
We were placed on a huge circular iron plate and were being moved somewhere. There were also people from other shelters next to me.
“Hello.”
“Hello…”
A man wearing sunglasses who looked like a gangster looked at Euncheol and said hello.
Without even having time to check the man’s abilities, we first checked the opponent we had to endure.
As we looked at the scene that caught our eye, we were immediately contemplating whether to raise our hands or not.
Although it was hundreds of meters away, there was a bird that filled our eyes and was so large that the word gigantic would not be enough.
The bird was emitting bright crystal-like light in all directions, showing off its noble appearance on the barren, brown-colored land.
We and the people from other shelters that filled the area walked blindly in front of the bird as if they were possessed by something.
‘It’s really beautiful… That bird is amazing.’
As we approached, the bird gently opened its eyes, and its pupils were reminiscent of a colorful kaleidoscope.
The bird opened its eyes for a moment and slowly began to open its snout, which was bigger than our shelter.
As soon as I saw a thick thread of magic leaking from the snout, I came back to my senses.
‘Ah… I feel like I’ve become a bastard…’
Immediately, people were gathered together.
“Everyone gather next to me!!”
Our 9 team members wrapped around my body and held close to me.
I immediately inflated my fingers with magical power, spread them wide, and wrapped them all up as if I were bandaging them.
At the same time, a huge snowstorm burst out like a storm from the bird’s open mouth.
Kwakwakwakwakwakwakwa-
A sharp wind blew past me, scratching my outstretched fingers mercilessly, but my hand was already tightly wrapped with magical power.
“Wow!”
Euncheol saw the snow storm through the gap between my fingers and screamed in shock.
– That’s ridiculous. There is such a huge creature…
– The centipede I saw in the desert last time was only about the size of a bird’s feather.
– Okja, that’s a bit rude. It’s really big.
“Dog, are your fingers okay?”
Lingling looked at my reddened fingers and asked worriedly, and I nodded at her as if it was no big deal.
However, the rate at which magical power was being consumed became faster and faster due to the never-ending blizzard.
“Sister, when will this end? I’ll be making snowmen outside in no time! There are so many!”
It had already been covered in snow outside for a long time, and the temperature was slowly dropping.
No matter how much you warm yourself with your flame cloak on the inside, if you spit out snow that harshly on the outside, you will literally have no choice but to hold on.
‘Has it been 10 minutes now?’
Gurl-
“Uncle, you went out of your way to bring soju.”
“I guess I brought it just in case, hmmm-“
“You are truly amazing.”
I wonder how much time has passed since I saw Director Ahn and Go Okja exchanging some scoldings with their uncle.
Thanks to the use of arrows, we stayed in our finger tents quite comfortably. After confirming that the sound of the snowstorm outside had subsided, we went outside.
“You’ve lost quite a bit, huh?”
Lingling was surprised that so many people were eliminated.
“We were comfortable inside, so when we looked outside, there wasn’t much of a fuss. There was even a team that kept running around for 30 minutes.”
“I see.”
‘How many trials will there be?’
It was an ordeal that made me realize once again that no matter how much magic power I have, it is not enough.
Anyway, we passed the first stage without any major damage, so we moved to a huge circular board that seemed to be urging us to get on it quickly. And then I carefully climbed onto the disc that was glowing softly.
“Brother, perhaps I could have controlled the blizzard with my freezing ability?”
“Huh?······.”
It was amazing how I could even come up with such a thought.
“I think it might have been possible for you.”
“Right? Ah, I thought I’d give it a try…!!”
Do you think I would have loosened my fingers? No way.
Anyway, we climbed onto the disc and floated upward, approaching the eye level of the giant bird.
‘What is this bird doing? A being that appears to be insufficient to confirm through insight…’
A being that pushes over 240 million players into a corner with one breath.
The universe seemed wide and overflowing with the strong.
The disc, which started moving quickly, was far enough for a bird to catch it at a glance, and this time it reached a place that looked like a jungle.
We were forcibly thrown to the ground, and soon our legs were caught tightly by a stem rising from the ground.
“aaah!!”
“What?! You’re not letting go of this?!”
The intensity was so high that even Kim Hyun-ah could not escape the stalks, let alone make even a scratch with a large sword.
– Mom, sobbing…
Ha-eun must have been so surprised that her body was shaking.
– Wouldn’t it be better to send Ha-eun away first?
– Ha, you can do it!
‘I have to say that with tears in my eyes… Still, this is an experience, shall we just wait a little longer?’
People who are overcome with great fear just by having their legs tied.
Time passing by.
A face that becomes increasingly contemplative in proportion to time.
– Ah- please, I don’t want to feel like this!
– Oh?!!
– Shhh – Something is coming.
Hyuna Kim twitches her ears, getting her attention.
Chachachachachachacha-
Already I have hundreds and thousands coming towards us.
No, I knew what billions and billions of living things were, but I just pretended not to know.
‘Wow, it’s definitely an ordeal…’
Insects that looked as horrible and disgusting as cockroaches were flooding in like a tidal wave.
– Kyaaa!!
The surrounding teams went crazy before us.
Everyone, both men and women, was frightened and screamed at the tidal wave of pests.
Even for me, who usually likes things like bugs, that was a bit… Unbearable.
In particular, the earthworm monster, whose body was bouncing and crawling with a whirling mouth like a sea eel, was even more disgusting as it became smaller than when it was large.
– hehehe… hehehehe, hehehehe… Mom ha… hehehe.
Even at a young age, Ha-eun proudly used spheres to eradicate monsters from the beginning of the stage.
But when this situation came up, I ended up crying.
And suddenly, Ha-eun’s body glowed with dazzling blue light, and a doll embracing Ha-eun’s back appeared.
“Why is the little contractor crying sadly? Huh?”
“Huh…Luruya…Black.”
As soon as Ha-eun summoned Lulu, she was held in her arms and she cried bitterly.
“Please scold the bad bugs…”
“hehehe, it’s like bugs like that.”
After finishing her words, Lulu gracefully flicked her hand into the sky, and soon a portal opened in the air and 13 dragonis fell out.
– Keshahahahaaa!!
It was something new to see these guys in the jungle, who I always saw only on rooftops or in the field.
“First, everyone, please eat one of these.”
Chef Kim Jeong-gi took out something that looked like candy from his pocket and threw it to each person one by one.
“I applied the sauce I made to the candy and hardened it. Just by doing that, the ability was applied.”
When she put the candy in her mouth and rolled it a few times, she felt her magical power rise slightly.
The numbers have risen quite a bit since the beginning, but I haven’t even received a message like this anymore.
However, unlike me, other people’s expressions brightened slightly, and this alone seemed to be helpful enough.
Lingling also summoned a black leopard and set it aside, staring quietly at the direction where the enemies were flocking.
“Giantization is suicidal, right?”
“Yes, absolutely not. Bugs will get into your nostrils.”
Wow!
The sound of insects moving around was as sharp as the sound of metal grinding in an ironworks factory and as grand as an orchestra.
The dragonis surrounded Ha-eun, and the black leopard hid Ling-ling in his arms.
“The two of us will fall into it, so let’s narrow it down a little more and cover it with our fingers!! From what I saw earlier, there were a lot of gaps!!”
Lingling expressed her opinion by screaming as hard as she could, fearing that it would be drowned out by the noise of insects.
I nodded and hugged everyone except Lingling and Haeun into my arms again.
Let’s do it!
Sssss!
‘Oh come on.’
Numerous bugs soon invaded and swept over the space we were in.
– Keuuut!!
– Heeek!!
People covered their ears and squeezed their eyes shut, as if it was painful just to hear the constant clanking sound.
Kim Hyun-ah and Kim Jeong-gi lightly burst and kill the bugs that occasionally creep into the gaps between their fingers.
And the remaining iron sat cross-legged for a while, muttering something, and then stretched out his hand through the gap in his fingers.
Then, the sounds of insects, which were irregular but regular, suddenly started bouncing around in the middle of nowhere.
When I looked outside through my insight, I saw medium-sized insects with their eyes wide open, viciously harming their fellows.
‘Even small bugs work.’
Euncheol’s characteristics Kdush’s training seems to never miss even small creatures.
As the insects’ attacks became noticeably weaker, the speed at which my magical power was consumed also decreased significantly.
‘Thank you, Euncheol. I was a little anxious because the magic power I consumed in the first trial had not yet recovered.’
And Isabella sat surprisingly quietly, and she often had a sparkle of magic in her eyes.
Healing and protecting the black panthers and dragonis.
‘He might be surprisingly sincere…’
In fact, it was questionable what Isabella did during the battle because she always fought outside.
She was a better student than I thought.
At first, the team members used Mini Vulcans or daggers to attack the gaps between the gaps, but soon realized that it was pointless to attack those small, vicious bugs.
In the end, just like the first ordeal, I stayed still and looked outside, or just fell asleep like my uncle.
How much time has passed like that?
At the sound of Lingling shouting brightly outside, she loosened her fingers.
“It’s over~!!”
Unlike the clear and clear voice, the scenery outside was very gloomy.

The jungle, which boasted lush greenery, quickly turned into a desert, and some distance away, people from other teams were seen bleeding all over their bodies.
“Why are you holding on like that? It looks dangerous.”
Ahn Eun-hye said with a face that said she did not understand.
“I guess it’s because there are only 5 people left on that team. Isn’t it like the will to go to the end somehow?”
“If that’s the case the second time, wouldn’t it be right to give up early?”
“Well, those five people might be elite.”
Of course, contrary to what I said, my inner feelings were not much different from Ahn Eun-hye.
I wondered how I got to stage 39 with such abilities.
