Chapter 27 - Mock Dungeon Trial (4)

[15:29:07]

Chae Nayun's team remained dead silent. They didn't have any other choice but to quietly wait for another team to show up. She wanted to be far away from the boss so she could at least breathe with ease, but she had to stay close enough to see the another team coming.

At that moment...

"Kuaaaak!"

The silence was broken by a sudden scream. For some reason, Sven was having a seizure. Chae Nayun and her team members all turned towards Sven in shock before quickly turning towards the Magma Golem in terror. Just as they feared, the Magma Golem was staring at them. The faces of the seven team members turned pale.

—Guooooo!

With a roar resembling an earthquake, the Magma Golem slammed down its fist on the ground. Lava flowed into the ground from its body. Chae Nayun picked up Sven and shouted loudly.

"Dodge!"

Immediately afterwards, lava erupted from the ground they were standing on. It was one of Magma Golem's attacks, a terrifying ambush attack that sent lava underground and making it erupt into a pillar of fire.

Though the cadets spread out before it was too late, the Magma Golem was only getting started.

From its face, what had to be a "mouth" opened wide. From inside, a current of lava poured out like a torrent. The Magma Golem rode the lava current it spat out, charging towards Chae Nayun's team.

—Guooooo!

The terrifying sight of a giant golem sliding down a current of lava caused Chae Nayun's team to run away in fear.

The Magma Golem's first target was Chae Nayun, who was slowed down by having to carry Sven.

After arriving in front of her in an instant, it brandished its arms, slamming down and swinging sideways.

Chae Nayun concentrated entirely on dodging the Magma Golem's attacks. Meanwhile, Sven began to murmur strange words on her back. Because he spoke in German, Chae Nayun couldn't understand a thing he said.

"Hey! Stop screwing around and wake up!"

Immediately after her shout, a pillar of fire shot up from the place Chae Nayun was standing on. Chae Nayun quickly jumped back, but that wasn't the only a pillar of fire. Lava was erupting all around her.

Chae Nayun found herself trapped by several pillars of fire. In front of her, the Magma Golem raised its arms up high.

At that moment, Chae Nayun sensed her death.

'This golem will kill me. This terrifying being in front of me can't possibly be just a puppet...' Petrified, she couldn't think about anything else. Without closing her eyes, she stared at the two fists crashing down on her.

Tang!

Just when the horrifying torrent of lava was about to devour her, the Magma Golem's head bent forward. With its arms raised, the Magma Golem stopped moving. Its expression showed that it was enraged, but its body remained frozen as though the sudden attack petrified its entire body.

Chae Nayun turned towards the direction of the mysterious attack.

There, she saw a man carrying a handgun.

"What's this?"

We stood in front of a giant wall.

A wall made of volcanic rocks that were at least 10 meters tall. This wall, which was blocking the path to the boss area, wasn't here just a moment ago. But figuring out who put it here wasn't the biggest problem.
