It’s an Academic Fact That Rankers Are Model Students – Chapter 245

Chapter 245: Overclock

“Let’s go!”

Kyung-joon took the lead and opened the door to the stairs.

A feast of all kinds of magic tools and equipment unfolded before their eyes.

And the light of mana blooming everywhere and the pungent smell of ozone.

It was exactly the same scene as when he had scouted with Teemo earlier.

As soon as Kyung-joon stepped inside.

“Huh?”

A completely unexpected sight greeted them.

Hwaaaak.

Dozens of magic tools and equipment that had been blocking the place in a stuffy manner were broken and collapsed.

Virus zombies that seemed to rush at them as soon as they opened the door turned to dust and scattered into the air.

And.

The roof disappears.

At that time.

A picture flashed through Kyung-joon’s mind.

It was the sight he had pictured when Ezeri explained what had happened.

『Volume 10, Episode 22 中

━Flash!

━A powerful mana pillar rose vertically from the device.

━Kuwa━━ang!

━The roof of Grand Magic Tower Arc-en-Ciel disappeared.』

That’s right.

A fact that both Kyung-joon and Teemo forgot.

Something they should have suspected when they first saw the tower from the outside, but ended up overlooking.

It’s just that the roof of Magic Tower Arc-en-Ciel has been blown off for a long time.

And one more thing.

“If we conquer the 10th floor, it’s all over! Let’s all do our best! Let’s go!”

Instead of running forward like this full of energy and proceeding as planned.

『Volume 10, Chapter 22 

━And in the middle of that vertical explosion was a new Merde that I had never seen before.』

We had to avoid it now.

As soon as he realized that, Kyung-joon shouted urgently.

“Everyone! Don’t run forward! Get out of the way!!”

“Yes?”

Fael University students who look back for a moment at the order opposite to the manual.

Too late.

They should have just thrown themselves away or dodged to the side without looking back.

Pususssuk!

The sound of flesh being pierced was heard from all sides.

Pusuk!

Then the sound of something escaping from the pierced flesh.

Chuaaak.

Blood splatters everywhere.

“Uh… uh…?”

“Kyung… joon… nim…?”

“What’s going on…?”

Thud!

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Everyone fell to the floor at once.

At the same time, Kyung-joon’s mana, which rose from the floor, wrapped around him and each of them.

[Joint research skill of Kyung-joon and Teina 『Eternal Telomere』 ]

[Proceed with hemostasis process.]

[Proceed with breathing assistance process after securing airway.]

[Applying the fluid mechanics formula of Mana Mechanics, we proceed with the blood flow and blood pressure support process.]

[Applying the mana circuit theory formula of Mana Mechanics, smooth the mana circuit……]

．

．

．

[Rapid cell regeneration process in progress.]

Kyung-joon’s actions didn’t end there.

[Unique skill 『Isolated System (Lv.1)』 ]

[Completely blocks infection invasion, including bacteria and viruses.]

[Adjusts the exchange rate of oxygen and carbon dioxide inside and outside. Creates a high-oxygen space.]

[Adjusts the mana exchange rate inside and outside. Build a high-mana space.]

[Blocks all other material and mana entry and exit.]

The fallen students were becoming transparent from their toes.

It was as if they were being erased from this world.

Then, when the status window saying that the level of Isolated System had risen to 2 and the status window saying that the proficiency of Eternal Telomere had increased also popped up.

<All processes have been completed.>

Teemo said in the dark Isolated System.

“How long do you think you can keep it up?”

<At least for more than an hour, they will be able to survive without dying.>

Teemo continued to report without showing any emoticons.

Instead, it showed the number 82.4% on the crystal ball.

<However, in order to maintain it continuously, it consumes about 82.4% of Master’s mana efficiency and my CPU occupancy.>

As soon as he heard Teemo’s words, Kyung-joon started using all sorts of items in his inventory.

[Used 『Deep Mana Infused Organic Croissant』.]

[『Deep Mana Infused Sweet Honey Castella』 ……]

[『Malfunctioning Mana Battery』 ……]

[Passive effect of 『Mana Overflow (Weakened)』 applied……]

[『[Dragon Magic – 137th Sword』 을……]

[Passive effect of 『Dragon Penetration』 applied……]

[Passive effect of 『Dragon Explosion』 applied……]

[『Seram-style Contemplation Herbal Tea』 ……]

[『Unknown Doping Potion: A2.39/L4.57/B4.55/R3.27/M1.98』 을……]

[『Herb Hits – Red (Prototype)』 ……]

After using all the doping items he could use.

Kyung-joon said softly to Teemo.

“Teemo, overclock yourself too.”

(※Overclocking: Boosting computer processing performance)

🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷

Wheeing~

The 10th floor, now a rooftop with the roof blown off.

At the far end, a being already completely devoured by the virus and turned into a monster was confronting Kyung-joon.

[Infected Merde Adivite]

▶Job: Irreversible Virus Zombie (6th Promotion) (Incurable)

▶Race: Elf (NPC)

▶Level: 619

▶Strength: 154 (+376%!!)=733

▶Agility: 113 (+376%!!)=538

▶Intelligence: 2427 (+46%!!)=3543

▶Stamina: 194 (+376%!!)=923

▶Mana: 1332 (+46%!!)=1945

※Mana virus runaway effect in progress!!

━Kiri kik… Kirik… It’s been 300 years since I first entered this magic tower… But I still remember the day I first went to work… When I got my internship certificate and came here for the first time, I was already picturing myself rising to this high position and working like this from then on!

Merde Adivite, who was completely consumed by the virus and became very powerful.

Merde is a high-level elf wizard who is over level 600 and has reached the level of 6th Promotion Tongyu.

She was already strong, but with the runaway effect of the virus applied, she was literally a monster.

But.

It wasn’t just Merde who went berserk.

[Mythical skill 『Just A Rather Very Intelligent System』 is running wild.]

[Increases the amount and speed of skills and calculations that can be processed by consuming the time of the mythical skill 『Dimensional Study Room』 by 3.76 times.]

He gave half of the 『power of knowledge』 accumulated in the Dimensional Study Room while studying to Teemo.

<Over#%clocking applied!^ in progress.>

<Sleeping mo##&^$* will enter after 1 hour!^#7 minutes$*.>

The runaway Teemo couldn’t speak properly.

Moreover, it is very unstable, so maybe in an hour the runaway will stop and it will enter sleep mode.

If Merde is not dealt with by then, Kyung-joon, who cannot receive Teemo’s assistance, will surely be forcibly logged out.

And the Isolated System and Eternal Telomere, which were protecting the lives of Fael University students, are released, and they die with a pick.

To prevent that.

Kyung-joon is here now.

[Isolated System released.]

Kyung-joon released only his Isolated System while maintaining the students’ Isolated System.

Crackle.

A man’s foot popped out of thin air with a mana spark.

Calves sprouted from the man’s feet.

Thighs appeared above the calves.

Then the torso, chest, shoulders, arms, neck, face, and even the hair.

Crackle, crackle!

Kyung-joon, who escaped from the air, was walking towards Merde with mana sparking from his entire body.

“Vector Calculus assists movement by constantly manipulating vectors.”

Kyung-joon was still walking even though he let go of all his strength.

“Eternal Telomere builds constant regenerative power by increasing cell activity throughout the body.”

Some of the wounds and scars he had sustained while climbing the floors began to heal cleanly.

“Deterministic Worldview identifies the trajectory of all attacks on a target in advance.”

The world Kyung-joon saw began to turn black and white.

“Use Magic Breaker to offset attacks that you can’t dodge.”

Sparks flew from the blue mana that enveloped Kyung-joon’s entire body every time the wind touched it.

“Gain powerful propulsion from your back with Sylph Fly.”

Diagonal lines of light extended from Kyung-joon’s back.

“Dimensional Study Room boosts Time Dilation.”

The black and white world began to look 3.76 times slower.

And.

Shaak!

Kyung-joon instantly moved behind the runaway virus Merde.

He was clenching his fist and thrusting it forward.

▶Strength: 230 → 501 (Doping Buff)

Strength nearly doubled due to herbal teas and all sorts of doping drugs.

At the same time.

▶Strength: 501 → 1432 (Vector Calculus)

Vector Calculus, the power to manipulate vectors with mana, turned the intelligence stat of 931 into strength.

It didn’t end there.

Because Kyung-joon’s fist was.

[Mythical Skill 『Jet Black Power』 ]

[The power of jet black received from the Demon King.]

[All abilities are amplified in proportion to the level (176).]

[All abilities are strengthened by 176%.]

It was tinged with jet black light.

▶Strength: 1432 → 3952

A fist with a strength stat that no other player in this world could produce touched Merde’s front.

“One-inch punch.”

Fwhoaaaaaaaaaaang!!

Kuwaaaaaaaaaaang!!

Paaaaaaaaaang!!

A tremendous jet-black shock wave engulfed the rooftop.

Its intensity was such that everyone would have mistaken it for the Demon King being resurrected here.

[『Parallel Imprinting』 activated.]

[Covered in jet black.]

[The Imprinting fades a little.]

Fortunately, thanks to the Imprinting left by his predecessors, that didn’t happen.

Shuuuu.

The shock wave went away.

Half of the rooftop, which had been blown away and was in tatters, became very neat.

There were no fragments or anything.

It’s just that a picture is drawn on the floor in the shape of a shock wave.

But on top of that.

━Kirilik… Kirik… Then how did I go from intern to full-time employee, from full-time employee to researcher, from researcher to director, from director to CEO……

Merde, who had layered dozens of mana shields and stretched out both arms, was standing upright.

Instead, the bones in both arms were exposed due to the aftermath.

Gulp, gulp.

But even that was quickly healed by the virus’s ability.

The same goes for Kyung-joon.

Kyung-joon’s right fist, whose bones were exposed from the punch he had just thrown.

Clatter, clatter.

New flesh was quickly sprouting there, like a vampire.

[The Research Progress (proficiency) of 『Eternal Telomere』, a joint research skill of Kyung-joon and Teina, is updated.]

▶Current proficiency: 7.3% → 8.5%

[The Research Progress (proficiency) of 『Vector Calculus』, a Mana Mechanics research skill, is updated.]

▶Current proficiency: 50.7% → 54.2%

Thinking that the status window in front of his eyes was honey, Kyung-joon.

Chuck.

He took his stance again.

Then, facing the infected Merde in front of him, he said.

“Merde Adivite, CMO of Grand Magic Tower Arc-en-Ciel… Come to think of it, you said you scouted Ezeri, whom I had my eye on in advance, right?”

━Yeah, it’s simple. You can all do it too. Go to work after talking, leave work after everyone else leaves work, and when you go back, read the beastkin data, and then at some point, you’ll naturally come here too……

“Seeing as you’re already in a completely Irreversible state and can’t be cured…… I’m just going to go ahead and take everything, including the CMO position.”

Flash!

As Kyung-joon kicked the floor again.

Fwhoaaaaaaaaaaang!

The same shock wave as before began to engulf the rooftop once more.

🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷

Police cordon around Grand Magic Tower Arc-en-Ciel.

“What the hell is this……”

Superintendent Rebirus and his men looked up at the top floor of the magic tower, speechless.

Fwhoa━━━ang!!

Kuwa━━ang!!

Pa━━ang!!

The tremendous shock wave that had been raging non-stop on the rooftop since an hour ago.

It wasn’t just the wide range that surprised them.

If you use area magic, it’s not difficult to cover a wider area than that.

However.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The problem was that the Radiati absorption magic tools kept breaking.

━Superintendent……! We have 10 minutes to hold out……!

“Ugh! Didn’t I tell you to get the ones in the police station warehouse! Where did you put them?!”

━That’s 10 minutes, taking everything into account…!

Radiati absorption magic tools that can cover even unique magic and even epic magic if pushed to the limit.

As if it wasn’t enough, they emptied the Magic Tower Valley Police Station warehouse and brought all the remaining stock.

But even so, in just an hour, they were about to run out.

“Ugh…! What kind of fight is going on up there……?!”

At least it’s definitely an epic-level fight.

And not just once or twice.

An epic-level attack rages every second.

‘This is definitely not something a police superintendent can handle alone. At least the chief of police, or even higher, the commissioner……’

When Rebirus finally decided to send an emergency special structure request to his superiors.

Tap.

Siam grabbed Rebirus’s shoulder and stopped him.

“Relax. Relax. You don’t need to make things bigger.”

“But if this continues, the capital will definitely suffer considerable damage! Contact your superiors quickly and dispatch the Commissioner General (level 4 civil servant) or Commissioner (level 3 civil servant)……!”

“That’s why I’m saying you don’t have to.”

Even in the face of the disaster of her magic tower collapsing, Siam remained composed.

Indeed.

She had good reason to be.

“I’ve already called someone much higher than the Commissioner General or the Commissioner.”
