chapter 53
53 – Reasonable Reward
Five C-class hunters aimed for the vulnerable part of the monster they judged and cast their skills.
[Must cut card]
[One Island – Second Step]
[Exploding Hammer]
[Fierce Stab]
[Triple Smash]
First of all, dozens of cards flew in a strange arc and slashed the monster’s outer skin as if cutting off the head.
Starting with that, the heavy skills filled with the magic of melee warriors exploded in an instant.
Kwajijik!! Fuuk!! Pew! Awesome!
Kieek!!
The monster’s body, which seemed unbreakable no matter how hard it was beaten, was fragmented, destroyed, and separated.
Tuk-patter-
The arms holding the Lizardman’s corpse were cut off by the card catcher and spearman’s attack and fell to the ground.
Other skills focused on the area damaged by the explosion destroyed more than half of the monster’s head.
Gureuk-
It would have been a great picture if the monster hit by that skill would have died instantly, but it had tenacious vitality like a cockroach.
Wriggling- Fudadadak-
The hunters, who got tired of his fluttering movements like a live fish, hit them at random with flat blows as rough as their wrinkled impressions.
“You silly bastard!! Die! Die!”
Piyoung-
Fu-wook!
Piyung-
Puff! Puff!!
And Yeon-hee continued to put arrows into the monster’s head, which was completely shattered and unrecognizable.
‘·······.’
In the end, it was only after the hunters cut down and struck down for a long time that a message popped into my head.
– Accomplished the achievement [First Raid].
– As an achievement reward, all stats increase by 5.
ㅡ!!!
“Crazy!! Was it like a boss?!”
“Uhahahahaha!! This is solved like this?”
“Should I call it lucky… I’m a bit cautious when it comes to the victims.”
Raids are events that occur with a low probability in C-class or higher dungeons.
Another dungeon created within a dungeon.
If you enter there and defeat the boss monster, there is a high probability that an artifact will drop.
Raid dungeons are recognized like a lottery because all participating hunters receive artifacts unless there is a ‘bang’ where no artifacts appear.
Even ‘Kwang’, which does not drop artifacts, is given basic ‘Crystal’, which costs 100 million won.
By the way, did you think this monster was a monster that could only be seen in raids? So, are there any rewards?
“There is aaa!!”
A cheer that could have exploded when seen in the mountains resounded, and even though it wasn’t like that, the hunters excitedly grabbed objects that were slowly flying towards them.
—–
Ancient Crystal
– It has the power to gather and store mana in the air.
—–
“Krystal… Well, it’s a pity, but where is this!! Kyahahahahaha!”
“Shh- you’re laughing too loud.”
“hehehe, but I feel good because I feel like I’ve received a windfall by volunteering. Me too.”
“Actually, so am I, but I’ll have eyes to see, so I’m going to have a good time…”
The five C-class hunters were very excited when they received a reward equivalent to more than half a year’s worth of income.
‘Crystal…’
As explained, the ancient crystal collects mana in the air, and it can be said to be a superior version of magic stone, an energy source that replaces electricity.
Magic stones can only use the energy contained in them, but crystals are completely different.
Since it is close to a semi-permanent self-generator that supplies and supplies energy on its own, it can be said to be much more useful than artifacts in terms of practicality.
So the price varies widely depending on the size, which is determined by the contribution according to the dungeon’s law.
And the crystal the size of Lizardman’s fist, which floated in front of Yeonhee’s face, was worth at least 200 million won. He was the one who contributed the most to anyone, as the size of the crystal differed greatly from those received by others.
Nevertheless, Yeonhee just calmly put the item in her inventory, and didn’t show any reaction.
‘··· Sun Moon Lee······.’
“Yeah~ You did a great job. Well, it’s only natural that you were the most active.”
“Did the first explosion be done by a summoner? Then it’s a jackpot?”
“I wonder if the retreating pyromancer set it off?”
“I see? But was there a pyromancer?”
“Anyway, thanks to the summoner, I was able to catch it comfortably without getting hurt. As a thank you, how about a cup of tea after finishing it?”
“We should have a meal together, but the time is like this.”
“If you want to drink coffee, let’s go together! There’s a new restaurant right next door!”
“·······.”
But Lee Yeon-hee’s unfocused, blurry eyes said she had no intention of accepting their offer.
“Keuheumheum- I’m sure you don’t have an idea…”
“No, then let’s go by ourselves. Well, isn’t it the mood to do something after a day like this?”
“Anyway, I envy the way you fight by throwing summoned creatures… If you come to our guild! We can treat you like a white knight! Would you like to think about it?”
Awkwardly-
“Ah, at least take a business card here!”
Yeon-hee hesitates for a moment A woman puts a business card in her hand.
“No, they say it’s a new class, it’s a scam, really. Gyu-tae playing with cards over there? Has the card-handling class become a relic of the past? Fuhahahaha!”
“What are you talking about!! It’s still a rare class?!”
There was a word that made Yeon-hee tremble greatly in the conversation they exchanged while quickly brushing off the dirty debris from their weapons and sharing the lingering afterglow of the battle.
Fight while throwing summoned beasts…
Tight-
Yeonhee closed her eyes for a moment, released all summoned creatures, and summoned Ilwol.
– A summon that is regenerating.
– A summon that is regenerating.
‘Cheet…!’
In the end, she only summoned Lizard 1 and Slime again. As she released the summoned beasts she had summoned, she felt the rapidly rising mana travel through her veins and swirl around every corner of her body.
I tried to focus on the flow, but my heart kept pounding and I couldn’t concentrate at all.
’97 Lives······ Gwae, it’s okay··· There are still a lot left, so··· Increase your dominance quickly and do the sun, moon and the moon ······.’
Yeon-hee, who tried to hold her trembling hands and comforted her heart, chewed again on her own fighting style.
The previous battle seemed to be very good even for the C-class Hunters. She could tell the difference between her empty compliments and sincere compliments.
Summons, including Ilwoli, throw their bodies to block it, and the dealers focus only on attacking from behind.
I don’t think I’ll find a better way than this in the future. Then.
‘I just need to make it so that Ilwol doesn’t have to sacrifice! If you make a lot of summons! That’s right, if there are about a hundred lizardmen, there will be nothing to do with the sun, the moon and the moon!’
She was still dizzy. She had no idea how hard it would be to summon a hundred lizardmen.
Yeonhee reached level 30 through this battle and had 4 gray-brown summon scrolls stocked up.
Assuming there were 11 Lizardmen by opening all 4 now.
And again, I ran the simulation of fighting that monster in my head.
‘·······.’
The result was outrageously pushed aside.
Summoned monsters are being eliminated one by one without being able to stop the monster moving with great speed and power even though Ilwoli specified the location and blocked the path.
In the end, a picture was drawn of Ilwol running away in stealth and self-destructing with the monster. Rather, a more ineffective situation than this battle.
‘No!! This, this isn’t it…’
I had to find another way. But there was no trick that came to mind. In the end, it seemed that he had to go over level 40 and obtain a higher grade summon scroll.
‘What should I do to get a lot of experience quickly?··· That, yes! Wouldn’t it be fine if we just stayed in the dungeon?’
A large man approached and delivered a powerful hammer attack to her, who had not yet calmed down and was lost in her wild thoughts.
“Let’s get rid of the rest as well. Oh, if you can afford it.”
“I’ll do it.”
I have to catch at least one more and get stronger quickly. That was all she thought.
Actually, if she quit her job as a hunter, she wouldn’t have to worry about it now, but she didn’t seem to think so.
I wrapped the slime around my arm like an arm guard and wiped out the remaining ‘speaker’ monsters with 5 hunters.
“Because of that bastard!”
The ‘Speaker’, holding a strange weapon with a clear middle, looked like an ugly crucian carp with many short limbs. In fact, the monster that played the most annoying role in this disaster.
Fu-wook!
Heck!!
“Look at what it looks like…”
Except for the sonic attack, the body itself was very weak. However, the monsters around him persistently defended the ‘Speaker’, so his ears suffered until the very end.
“I’ve never seen these take care of other monsters in my life… Do the monsters that came out of the dungeon explode have such a cooperative spirit?”
A female hunter with a rapier tilted her head, and the surrounding hunters just shrugged her shoulders.
The experience of blocking the dungeon break wasn’t something that even C-level hunters could do.
And when all the monsters in sight were eliminated, four hunters exuding strong magical energy broke through the poison and approached as if they had waited.
“f*ck you’re coming soon…”
“Did the noble, high-ranking hunters come? But why is the atmosphere so hideous?”
“It looks like the 2nd warning has been triggered now. Looking at the badges, all 4 of them are Class B… They’ll have to figure out what’s going on first, so it looks like they’re coming to us. I’m a bit tired…”
Commonly, F and E are lower grades
Intermediate level D, C level
Class B and A are called advanced hunters.
Of course, there is no such thing as an S-class, just called an S-class.
One of the advanced hunters who approached held the monster’s corpse wrapped in a giant bead in the hand.
“Is this the one you caught?”
