Tales Of Magic Swordsman 396 Tower Training 2

In truth, the training place was located underground. There was no one knew why this training had the word, tower, inside when it supposed to be underground. But, n.o.body really took the matter seriously. It was just a name anyway.

It took 10 minutes for the military staff to explain what necessary for the newbies. There were 10 levels in this training. And, this training lasted for 10 days. The deeper they went, the more benefit they could get. As the training took place in the underground, the first level was near the surface and relatively easy.

However, to get down from a level to another level was not easy. The training partic.i.p.ant needed to do some tasks, and it was different for each level. But, the theme was the same for each level, to kill some special kind of animals breeds by the military.

After explaining the training's information, the staff officially began the training. The underground entrance was near the podium, where the staff was explaining the training's information. So, the soldiers started to line up to the entrance led to the underground.

Although there were only 10 days for 10 levels, which would mean one day for one level, none of the soldiers was in a hurry. They knew the first few levels were easy. The experienced soldier could go down 3 levels on the first day.

There were more than 3 thousand soldiers who partic.i.p.ate in this training. From that big number, 30% of it was a newbie that never partic.i.p.ated in the Tower Training before. Auron was one of them, just like all of the players who had joined the military.

It took 10 minutes before it was Auron's and his team's member's turn to enter the underground. Then, Auron took the portal leading to the underground.

A few seconds later, Auron arrived at an unfamiliar place. He arrived at a vast meadow field. There was even a blue sky above him even though he was underground. It was like what happened when Auron was taking the mage's simulation tower or when he was joining the ancient ruin's raid.

The greenfield and blue sky with a soft breeze were very refres.h.i.+ng. However, Auron and the other could not relax yet. The training had started.

Everyone who entered the underground entrance got teleported to a different place. Even Auron, who came with his team members, also separated from each other. A notification appeared in front of Auron.

[Bring 100 smole's head to the second's floor entrance (0/100)]

That was the notification explaining what Auron needed to enter the second floor. As soon as Auron closed the notification, a small black shadow leaped up to him, who was using his swordsman character.

Bang... -1 floated above Auron's head. He was unprepared and got damage by that small black shadow, which was a [Smole]. It was the monster that was specifically bred by the military to act as training monsters. They chose [Smole] because it was relatively easy to breed. Not only that, but they also trained the [Smole] to become stronger, so it could give more variant of difficulty.

No matter how hard they trained [Smole], it was a relatively weak monster. That was why they made all of the soldiers wore some kind of vest on top of their armor. This vest was used to track how many times the soldiers got hit by the monster.

Even though there were 10 days in the training, but the soldiers still need to be careful since they could come out earlier than that. The indicator was their vest. Each vest was equipped with a teleport and safety measure.

When the user tried to unequip the vest, it would automatically teleport the user to the surface, which showed that he was disqualified. Not only that, but each vest had also been set to only hold 100 hits. When the limit was surpa.s.sed, the teleport function also would be activated.

A [Smole] would damage the soldiers by one point. So, each of the training partic.i.p.ants would only have 100 chances to get hit until the end of the training session. And, Auron had already lost 1 of that chance.

When Auron was fixing his posture and prepare to fight against that one [Smole], another [Smole] leaped to him from his right.

Although [Smole] was a weak monster, it also gave some pressure to the training partic.i.p.ants. Since it was easy to breed, the number of [Smole] on each level was enormous. When there were 3 thousand training partic.i.p.ants, the number of [Smole] at one level could surpa.s.s 30 thousand. And, that number would always be replenished in a certain period.

As [Smole] was also small and agile, it would be difficult to detect it or avoid its attack. Moreover, if there were a bunch of them together. Not only that, but the restriction for each soldier that they could only get hit 100 times also gave them some pressure.

Auron blocked the attack from the [Smole] that came from his right with his sword. Then, he also quickly slashed his sword to the first [Smole]. The slash decapitated the [Smole]. Auron threw another slash and cut the other [Smole] into two.

Then, Auron quickly collected the two [Smole]'s head and quickly moved away from that location. That fight would attract the other [Smole]'s attention, and he didn't want to be surrounded.

From his east direction, a white beam of light flashed. It was the light to the second floor, which means there was already someone who moved to the second floor. Well, it was not really surprising for experienced soldiers to achieve such results. A second later, the second beam of light flashed again, followed by two more lights.

When Auron was looking away, a [Smole] jumped and attacked him. Fortunately, this time Auron could manage to block the [Smole]'s attack and kill it.
