Vicious mana hit the ground.
A deafening explosion reverberated, evaporating the snow and turning it into white steam in an instant.
Bright magma flowed where the beam sword had fallen.
Noah could no longer be seen.
Keuahah! Theres not even a trace left of his body.
The hybrid devil, tangled with veins and wires, laughed loudly.
Mousin, who had been watching, shouted.
No!!!
The boy was dead. A monster-like guy who seemed impossible to kill had disappeared without a trace.
Still, what was this rising anger he was feeling?
How dare you! You son of a bitch!
Reason was paralyzed.
Before he knew it, he had taken out his familys treasure and was preparing to charge at the devil with the tonfas.
He had just wanted to pass the exam with the useful help of the boy. He certainly didnt have to keep his loyalty.
It was strange even when he thought about it.
He was someone who would use anything at his disposal, and it was normally his style to only do what benefited him.
So he didnt know why he had made this decision.
However, he wasnt the only one with such feelings, as other applicants around him had also taken out their weapons and were charging at Dr. Jaegal.
You crazy murderer!
Go to hell you son of a bitch! Im going to kill you!
Hahaha, good. Very good. A hero shouldnt pretend to ignore the crisis of their colleagues. For the attitude score, Ill give you full marks.
Dr. Jaegal put down his weapon and aimed at the candidates with his fingertip as if he was joking.
However, I cant believe youre rushing in without properly grasping the opponents capabilities. For the judgment score, youre disqualified.
Boom!
Kehuek!
Kyaaak!
The candidates were simply hit by one finger, but they were thrown across the ground as they vomited blood.
Soon, those who were preparing an attack from a distance shouted.
Attack!
Psychic powers, magic, arrows, etcVarious projectiles were fired at the mechanical devil.
But looking at the attacks, Dr. Jaegal spoke leisurely.
Oh, good. Long range attacks are more effective than close range attacks when dealing with large enemies. But
The cylinder mounted on the devils face emitted steam, and soon the jaw joint opened wide.
Then, all the projectiles were sucked into his mouth.
At some point, the projectiles had become lumped together, resulting in a high-density energy sphere.
The attacks they had fired with all their might, conversely, were now being directed at them.
D-dodge!
Boom!
The high-speed attack hit the ground and created a huge explosion.
The candidates hurriedly scattered in all directions, but those who couldnt escape the attack had disappeared without even being able to scream.
Attacks without familiarizing yourself with the opponent are bound to come back as a bigger threat. Therefore, for the strategic score, youre also disqualified.
Keuheuk! Shit!
Its hopeless
The candidates, who had been moving together thus far as a group and had unknowingly developed a camaraderie, all sighed in unison.
Looking at them, Dr. Jaegal spoke.
Hahaha! Dont be so sad. No one will be able to leave here today anyway.
The hybrid devil swung his beam sword as if he was excited. And each time, the candidates would run for cover with all their might.
E-everyone, run to the portal! Thats our last hope!
When someone shouted, they all rushed toward the portal.
However, Dr. Jaegal didnt stand still and watch.
Ridiculous!
Clank
Clank
The devils left arm transformed into a vicious-looking gun barrel. Then, an energy mass shot out and flew towards the direction the candidates were running.
Boom!
The blue portal, which was swirling brightly, broke like a toy.
N-no!
Shit!
There was no longer a way to escape from here. Driven to despair, screams could be heard all around.
Its really the end this time
Mousin thought as he saw it.
Even without the ability to sense death, everyone here could feel that it would be difficult to survive.
Strangely enough, however, they werent afraid of death. They were just angry that they couldnt punch Dr. Jaegal.
I couldnt take revenge for him.
* * * * * * * * * *
As someone who was treated as a troublemaker in his family for having failed the hero exam for the last 10 years, there was no way he could win against such a terrifying monster.
Nevertheless, he gripped his tonfas.
Did it know how he felt?
The spirit weapon, which he would usually force to respond to his call, was now roaring with hot flames.
Are you all going to die like cowards? At least the last breathLike him, lets behave like heroes.
Raising their heads one by one, the surviving candidates gathered around Mousin.
Yeahwere going to die anywayLets give it a try.
Fuck! What do you mean die? Were going to kill that son of a bitch and live!
Those who once dreamed of becoming heroes, stood face to face against an impossible ordeal.
Mousin, who was at the forefront, shouted.
Come on! You fucking midget. Stop dragging your feet and bring it on.
Hooo, how dare you insult the exam supervisor? You have guts. If its your wish to die like that
Dr. Jaegal raised his beam sword high. Steam spewed out the cylinder mounted on his body.
Youre all disqualified!
The moment the blade fell.
Flutter
The candidates, who were gritting their teeth, at the end of their gaze, they could see a red cape flapping in the wind.
At the same time, a steel giant could be seen blocking the falling blade with a brilliant shield.
Boom!
Keeeuk!
Dr. Jaegal scowled, taking a step back due to the backlash from the shield.
Soon, a familiar voice flowed from the steel giant.
No! My reward!
It was Noahs voice that everyone had thought was dead. After confirming the voice, Mousins nerves relaxed.
Yes! I knew it!
There was no way such a monstrous guy would die so easily.
Even though the opponent was an A-Rank hero that transcended the human limits, a groundless belief began to rise that if it was the boy, then he would be able to do it somehow.
HahaYou fucking midget. Looks like youre dead now.
The laugh of Mousin, it resembled when he had bullied the weak in the past.

Classification: Battle Mount
Grade: A
Description: A masterpiece robot of the Four Heavenly Kings series created by the genius engineer Dr. Jaegal. Boasts durability as hard as earth. Someone seemed to have tried to improve it, but theres no significant improvement to the original performance.
Success.
Thanks to synthesizing items that were related to vitality and recovery, the damaged area had returned to normal as expected.
It was quite heartbreaking to throw away the newly acquired items without having the chance to properly use them, but there was no other way now.
In any caseThat was really dangerous.
My spine was still flowing with sweat when I recalled the blade that fell toward me.
I would have been helpless against it if the item synthesis hadnt been completed and I hadnt entered the robot in time.
And fortunately, there had been no additional attacks since. It seemed he didnt know I was inside here.
Some time had been bought.
Though, the problem wasnt completely solved yet. I still had some time to spare, so I had to figure out the space I was currently in.
I thought the robots interior would be more complex and full of unidentified switches, but surprisingly it was simple.

[ Translator Yasi ]
[ Proofreader Karane ]
Mechanical parts covered my body like armor and curved screens occupied everything in front of me.
It was as if I was wearing a well-made VR game device.
But how do I move this?
Since I had synthesized it, I was certain the ownership had been handed to me, but it would be a difficult situation if I needed to start the engine or something else.
As soon as I thought as such, green characters suddenly rose above the darkened monitor. Fortunately, the language was Korean.
[Deletion of existing user data completed.]
[Checking the boarding of a new user.]
[Please enter your name.]
Like when making a character for the first time, an empty space was blinking in front of my eyes.
Sure enough, that was how it worked.
Choi Noah.
After saying my name, a loading bar that resembled the shape of a human body appeared on the screen.
The ugly dwarfs sense for creating a UI was rather excellent, as a gauge could be seen filling up starting at the feet.
[Entering data of new user biometric.]
[Current synchronization rate5% (5 minutes left).]
5 minutes.
It wasnt a long time under normal circumstances, but with the urgent ongoing battle, this short time felt too long.
Boom!
Perhaps the guy was rampaging outside, but heavy vibrations were transmitted into the robot.
However, since the display was still off, I had no choice but to be nervous.
This was troublesome.
At this rate, the reward I had been struggling to get may be blown away.
Looking at the screen, the gauge was rising at a slow speed.
Please, hang in there a little longer.
While praying for the warriors safety, I stared at the screen.
And then finally, the loading was done.
Finished!
[Synchronization completed.]
[Please set up a code for operating the robot.]
My time was urgent, so what was this? Not caring about this or that, I spat out a phrase that came to mind.
God game level up quest!
[Password setting completed.]
[Operation will now start.]
Immediately after, the inside of the robot lit up. The surrounding situation was displayed on one of the screens in front of me.
The base camp had turned into ruins, the portal was broken into an unknown shape, and the land was terribly melted here and there.
And most of all, what had made me angry the most was that the people I had struggled to bring here were bleeding and lying on the ground.
My reward!
The son of a bitch dwarf was seen raising his sword at the surviving candidates.
More than half were already deadIt was no longer acceptable for any more to die here.
My body instinctively moved.
The parts of the robot connected to my body were precisely interlocked, and the robots arms and legs immediately reacted.
Boom!
I ran straight towards the candidates and activated .
No! My reward!
Boom!
Along with the backlash, Dr. Jaegal took several steps back. Certainly, with the effect of resisting evil and demon properties, the skill boasted an excellent result.
And the man, who had come to his senses to some extent, looked at me with a very shocked expression.
H-how are you alive? NoHow are you controlling one of my Four Heavenly Kings?! No one should be able to move it except for me.
Instead of answering, I rushed straight at him with my shield.
Boom!
A shield charge as if I was using a siege weapon. Due to the collision, snow was instantly pushed aside and piled up.
It wasnt really a skill, but considering the mass of my robot, it was a force that couldnt be scoffed at.
But
Like a nail stuck to the floor, Dr. Jaegal didnt even budge.
Keueheh, okay. I dont know how youre moving my robot, but its just scrap metal that I dont need anymore. Rather, it would be nice to break down the remnants of my past to celebrate my rebirth.
Saying so, he ignored my shield and threw me to the ground.
Boom!
Keuk!
The ground cracked and the temporary provisional buildings near the base camp collapsed.
As expected! No matter how advanced science is, nothing beats moving your own body.
Boom!
Boom!
Dr. Jaegal began to kick me indiscriminately after I had fallen. Like a neighborhood thug that didnt know any martial arts.
But even with such simple kicks, there was no way for my robot to respond.
My armor was crushed, and on one of the screens, a warning window for the damaged area was constantly blinking.
The difference in robots was too big.
It could be said that the weight class was adjusted to some extent once I had mounted the robot, but the gap between me and him was still as wide as that of kindergartener and middle school student.
On top of that, I didnt even have a decent weapon.
Haha! Die! Die! Die! Die!
The guy who had been kicking me for a long time suddenly grabbed me by the leg and spun me as he threw.
Boom!
I, who had bounced off the snowy field like a skipping stone, collapsed, and became entangled with the other Four Heavenly Kings bodies who stood as if they were ornaments in the base camp.
[Warning! The damage to the robot is serious.]
[The user is encouraged to escape immediately.]
[60% power failure.]
[73% damage to the outer armor.]
.
.
.
Red warning windows constantly rose in front of my eyes. Soon, Dr. Jaegal spoke.
Lets really end it now.
Taking out his beam sword, he slowly began to walk toward me.
My weak past selfIt will disappear forever from today.
There was no hurry in his steps. Perhaps he thought this was the end.
Well, I thought it would be hard to win. I couldnt help but curse at his attitude.
But
It would be a pity to give up here.
In fact, the moment I had succeeded in synthesizing this robot, I had an idea in my head.
If robot mounts were classified as items
ThenWhat would happen if I synthesized the other series of robots here?
A while ago, I had to run suddenly to save the reward, but in fact, I had wanted to solve this question first.
I was a gamer and the spirit of experimentation was one of the most important virtues of gamers.
As such, I checked the information of the other Four Heavenly Kings series robots tangled next to me one by one.

I looked at these items and shouted.
Synthesize!
Then, with an intense light that only I could see, the tangled robots began to change.
Clank
Clank
The outer armors fell off as each part exquisitely fit and was reborn into a new shape.
Some of the parts turned into a sharp sword, while other parts turned into thick armor that covered the body.
And
Clank
Boom
My steel giant stood up and its pitch black body was reflected in the light as a red cape fluttered.

Description: A dream a genius engineer couldnt reach.
Fusion? As someone who had played one round already, I didnt even know there was such an option in the Synthesis menu.
Seeing the robot assembled like this, somehow, my heart began to heat up.
And in the end, Icouldnt hold back my excitement and shouted.
Yes! This is it!
I didnt care about winning or losing anymore. Because
This fusion was the dream of all men.
God game!
