Last Examination

ARC Last Examination As Lero-Ro and Yu Han Sung walk towards the auditorium to announce the results, Yu Han Sung explains that the  whole purpose of the floor was to weed out those who would harm the tower. Lero-Ro expresses his disagreement to which Yu Han Sung replies that he can always quit.

When the results are announced, Mauchi protests and is subsequently beaten to unconsciousness by Yu Han Sung. Koon also has a problem with the results. He asks to be tested by the guardian itself. Yu Han Sung tells him that this is impossible since only irregulars can participate. Baam immediately says that he is an irregular, playing into Yu Han Sung’s hands.

Yu Han Sung leaves, informing them that if the regulars help Baam, it will be a stigma they will carry for the rest of their lives. Koon manipulates them all into helping Baam, something that only Rak notices, while Baam talks to the guardian. Baam receives the test from the guardian, and Yu Han Sung reveals to him that he knew Baam was an irregular from the start. Baam icily responds that if the rankers weren’t liars, they’d have everything prepared for Baam when he climbed up. He walks away resolutely.

In the ensuing months, Baam trained with Androssi to get stronger, and Koon stragtegized with Leesoo, implying that they had been given the test beforehand. Rak and Amigochaz got into a spear throwing competition, and at one point there was a party where Serena started feeling sentimental, and everyone including HohoHohoho getting drunk.

 When the test finally starts (see here for details), Koon soon observes that the three species act as a balance for each other. They then had to use the spearbearers to take out the worms while having minimal impact on the hunters. He then sent Androssi and Anak to deal with the bull, which had the power to disrupt everything.

 Everything was going to plan, but when Leesoo encountered the bull, Androssi and Anak refused to fight it. They

resolved the situation by betting Black March, and Androssi went alone to fight it. She easily defeated it, but Anak distracted her and the bull took the chance to run off. The two princesses ran after it, leaving Leesoo with a sinking feeling in his stomach.

Androssi was jumping on the small rocks, and attacked what she thought was the bull, only to find that it was a trap, and the bull was much stronger than before. Meanwhile, Anak had gone off in a different direction, and came across Yuga. She was about to go on, when Yuga took out the gemstone she gave her mother. Inscenced she walks towards him, demanding that he give her the gem.

Back outside, Koon was talking with Sunwoo, and his suspicions were raised when he realized that anima could control animals like the bull. He then told Leesoo that the number of thieves were much larger than previously estimated, but Leesoo’s guess that the dogs moved underground was correct.

He let Sunwoo go with Chunhwa, and together with Laure, they destroyed certain parts of the ground. As they are finishing, Chunhwa tells them that the dogs were coming.

Rak and Parakewl were waiting and watching ever since Hatsu alerted them to the thieves presence, and were itching to start throwing their spears. When the worms started burrowing down, Parakewl panicked and threw a spear, alerting the thieves to their prescence. They are chased, to a cliff, and Rak jumps down into the middle of the thieves’ area. Parakewl was certain of their doom when they were saved by Laure, who helped them levitate them. Koon then revealed his plan to reroute the dogs, who travelled underground to the worms and eat them from the inside. As the dogs and thieves were fighting, Rak and Parakewl started throwing spears and killing the worms. When the remaining fishermen arrived, the worms were quickly dispatched.

Koon was reviewing the results but somehow dissatisfied when he was disturbed by another Koon family member. Leesoo was still chasing after Androssi and was confronted by Yuri. Laure’s sleep was also interrupted by two other Wolhaiksong members. The other Koon easily manipulates Agero’s lighthouse center, and located his teammates. As he leaves, he asks Koon whether he’s jelous of his position as a Wolhaiksong member. Koon scorns him and tells him to get out.

Down in the cave, Anak attacked Yuga, but was easily defeated by the shinheuh he controlled. As Anak lay bleeding on the floor, Androssi was brought in by the Bull, and Yuga, revealing himself as a RED member Ren, ordered Androssi to kill Anak. Androssi hesitates, and gives Anak Green April, and both of them attack Ren. However, this is futile and he easily defeats both of them. He further reveals that he came from the Bia family, and he set this all up so their princess would move further up the ladder. As he is about to kill Anak, Yuri arrives. Ren tries to control the shinheuh in his container, but fails. However, Yuri dispatches them with blinding speed and flicks Ren into a wall. She is about to kill him when she is stopped by Evan. He and Kurudan enters Yu Han Sung’s office, and he allows them to retrieve the Black March, surprising Evan who had been expecting more resistance. He convinces Yuri to stop, and Ren thinks he’s safe. But Kurudan suddenly hammers down on a lighthouse repeatedly, and crushes him into the ground. However, before his container was destroyed, he sent the bull to kill Baam. Yuri was about to rip the testing area out from the ground, when Evan stops her, saying that the whole test was as the guardian predicted. Annoyed, Yuri leaves, taking Black March and Green April with her. Androssi cannot move from the strain and Anak passes out from the shock of losing Green April, leaving Lessoo to take care of them. As Evan leaves, Hwa-Ryun walks past him, and he gets a strange feeling but is forced to hurry along by Yuri.

Baam and Rachel had been sitting in a bubble, and everything was going fine when the bull came and damaged the bubble. Baam could stop it, but couldn’t gather enough strength afterwards to attack quickly enough. His hand was injured in the process. In a maneuver similar to his first test on Headon’s Floor, he doesn’t bother to stop, instead shooting at the bull in the last second. He reaches out to Rachel, but suddenly, Rachel pushed him off the bubble, saying that he needed to die here. He falls down into the water, away from Rachel, away from the light…
