Episode 15
Boss Dungeon (1)
When is the most dangerous moment in a dungeon? The answer to this question is clear.
Immediately after entering the dungeon.
When you enter a dungeon from the outside, it takes time to recognize the situation. A short time of less than 1 second. However, in a dungeon, that one second could mean the difference between life and death.
At the academy, we thought about how to train for this one second and came up with one training. It was a specialty of the academy, also known as ‘blackout training.’
At the Academy, sudden power outages occur regardless of time or situation.
This blackout was a signal indicating that they had entered the dungeon. If there is a power outage, you must immediately stop what you are doing and be alert in all directions. Whether it is during training or while eating, you must act immediately.
If you undergo this training for about 4 weeks, which seems like it would be perfect for a person to become neurotic, your body will react first to a suddenly dark situation.
Like right now.
Pababat!
Team B, who entered the dungeon, reflexively grabbed their weapons and looked out in all directions.
Looking at that scene, Kim Seong-tae smiled in satisfaction.
‘Everyone responds within 1 second. ‘No points deduction.’
Seongtae recorded the students’ scores in the catalog.
‘and… ‘1 point is added to the student who responded the fastest.’
It was truly a natural movement, like flowing water. He pointed his weapon, the spear, forward and slightly lowered his body. The posture was stable enough to be included in an educational textbook.
‘His reflexes are much higher than those of other students.’
No, not only his reflexes but his overall abilities are high. I feel sorry for comparing myself to other students. In terms of ability alone, it surpassed E-level and approached D-level. Among them, his reflexes seemed to be comparable to those of a C-class user. Seongtae felt so sad every time he saw Jeongdo like this.
To a certain extent, he was more enthusiastic than anyone else in the academy. The number of practice wooden dolls he destroyed far surpassed the existing academy records. In addition to passion, he also had talent.
When Kim Seong-tae first taught Jeong Do how to use the spear, he was surprised. The talent was so good that it was surprising that the representative talent was not one of spearmanship. He felt as if he was repeating a state he had experienced before. He learned the teachings like cotton absorbs water.
‘If only the talent had given a little more support… .’
I could have looked at S-class, maybe even higher.
Right now, he was carrying out his duties as leader of the expedition.
The principle is that the leader of the expedition is the strongest user. The person with the best grades at the academy was selected as the captain of this B team.
After quickly assessing the situation in the dungeon, Jeong Do gave an order to Jo Won.
“Safety has been secured after entering the dungeon. Since it is an annihilation type dungeon, we will form a square according to the textbook.”
After hearing those words, the team members moved in unison. Hae-sik, who was in the tank position, and another male student took their seats at the front and back of the team, respectively, and the remaining students were placed in between them.
“Formation complete. “Let’s start conquering the dungeon now.”
Team B’s test, including Jeongdo, has begun.
* * * * * *
At that time, the outside of the dungeon was in complete chaos.
As soon as the instructor realized the situation, he contacted the User Association, and a task force was formed and dispatched from the association. Considering that it had been less than 30 minutes since the incident occurred, it was a very quick response, but there was not much the task force could do.
Sanghee Seo.
He was the team leader of a task force that was hastily created due to this incident and was an S-class user. She was an innocent beauty with long black hair tied in a ponytail, but unlike her face, she screamed with a harsh voice.
“Where is the kid who had the accident?”
“That… The instructor threw it into a tree. “He collapsed and is being taken to the hospital.”
“Send someone to the hospital right away and tell them to take that bastard into custody! “How can I contact the Karma Guild?”
“I tried contacting you, but… They don’t even know where the seeker went. I’m just sorry about this… .”
“under… Crazy guys. No, the problem is that those fanatics were allowed to operate in the guild in the first place.”
She glared at the dungeon crack. A dungeon crack that is red. This meant that users were inside. There was no other solution for the dungeon in this state. You can either wait until the dungeon is cleared or re-enter when the dungeon eats up all the users.
“The dungeon type is boss type?”
“yes. Plus, it’s Grade A.”
“I’m going to go back.”
“The supervisor who followed me in is Grade B instructor Kim Seong-tae. He is the highest level user among B-class users, so just in case… .”
“Damn.”
The boss type is a modified form of the annihilation type dungeon.
An annihilation type dungeon is cleared by defeating the normal monsters within the dungeon and the final boss monster. There is nothing unusual about the boss monster other than the fact that it is a little stronger than the regular monster.
But boss type.
The clear method is the same as the annihilation type. However, regular monsters in boss-type dungeons are very weak compared to their grade. The normal monsters in A-level boss-type dungeons are low, at levels D to E. But the problem is the boss monster.
As normal monsters are weak, boss monsters are incredibly strong.
If it is an A-level boss-type dungeon, the level of the boss monster is the S-level boss monster of an annihilation-type dungeon. Or maybe even more. Class B users cannot be defeated even if they wake up from death.
In the end, all TF could do was avenge the dead users. Seo Sang-hee chewed her lips and steeled her will to fight.
* * * * * *
The monster that Team B encountered in the dungeon was a very standard monster.
“Orcs found ahead.”
The most common types of monsters found in dungeons are humanoid monsters such as goblins. Orcs, like goblins, are classified as humanoids.
A large body with strong muscles. Bulky eyes and large molars protruding from the end of the mouth. And even dark green skin. It looked just like what most people imagine orcs would look like. When the orc discovered the group, it screamed and ran towards them.
“Kaaaaaaak!”
“tanker! Pick up your shield! “We can stop it!”
With that much said, Kang Hae-sik raised his shield and collided with the orc.
Coo!
“Huh?!”
However, contrary to expectations, Haesik was slightly defeated in the conflict with the Orcs.
“this! Sub-tank!”
After a few words, the user who was waiting behind Haesik assisted Haesik, and only then was he able to block the orc’s charge.
“Sigh!”

Jeong-do did not miss the opportunity and thrust his spear into the Orc, who hesitated for a moment as his charge was blocked.
Phew!
The small stab went straight into the orc’s head without missing an inch, and the orc struggled for a moment and then fell down.
“Whoa… Haesik, I’m sorry. “I made a mistake in judgment.”
“no. older brother. “This guy is stronger than he looks.”
Haesik grinned and responded to Jeongdo’s apology. But the truth wasn’t the only mistake. Kim Seong-tae also judged that Hae-sik could sufficiently stop him on his own.
‘That’s strange. If you’re a Ganghae-sik student, you’ll be able to easily block the rush of an E-class orc.’
But the result was that Haesik was pushed out.
‘Is this an E-level dungeon that is close to D-level? If I have to, I’ll have to intervene.’
However, Seongtae’s worries seemed unfounded and the dungeon proceeded smoothly afterward.
The order was timely, and the rest of the team worked well together.
“Then let’s attack the boss now.”
With those words, the group advanced towards the boss room. And when I arrived in front of the boss room, I felt somewhat strange.
“uh?”
“Brother. What’s wrong? Is something wrong?”
“No…it’s not like that.”
The boss room had a strange feel. It feels both unpleasant and ominous.
‘Even the D-class dungeon Lizardman boss room didn’t have this feeling… .’
When Jeong-do was hesitating in front of the boss room
“This is an emergency. “The test will be suspended as of now.”
Seongtae Kim, who had only been watching Team B from behind until now, spoke up. His expression was serious.
“Judging from the energy felt in the boss room, the boss is judged to be at least Grade A.”
“Huh?! What is that? We’ve definitely entered an E-class dungeon!”
Seongtae calmly explained to the student who was surprised.
“Among the seekers, there are people who can manipulate the information in the analysis… I think I probably got dungeon scammed by those people. I’m really sorry.”
“… “Then this dungeon was originally Class A?”
“yes. Besides, maybe… ”
“It’s a boss-type dungeon.”
Jeong Do took over Seongtae’s words. Seongtae nodded his head as if he agreed with what he said.
“It seems clear when you think about the difference in level between regular monsters and boss monsters.”
The students fell into despair at Seongtae’s assertive words. Grade A. Also, how do you clear a boss-type dungeon? Seongtae continued speaking.
“As everyone knows, the dungeon has been cleared. Otherwise, no outside intervention is possible until the user is wiped out. Ultimately, it means you have to challenge the boss.”
Seongtae looked at Jeongdo and said.
“From now on, I will take on the role of expedition leader. Please follow the instructions.”
“… Then can we live?”
Even though one student was crying, Seongtae calmly conveyed only the facts.
“In terms of possibility… “It’s infinitely close to zero.”
“It’s your fault!!!”
Perhaps because Seongtae’s cold words made him angry, one student shot Seongtae a look.
“The Academy should have definitely prepared for things like dungeon fraud! “Why do we have to die because of your fault!”
“… sorry.”
Even if I had 10 mouths, I had nothing to say. Seongtae simply apologized.
“Fighting among ourselves does not increase our chances of survival. For now, it’s best to follow the instructor’s instructions. Instructor. “Isn’t there a way?”
Seongtae fell into thought at the question.
Seongtae himself was a B-class tanker. No matter how he could withstand the attack, he was not confident that he could land an effective hit on the A-class boss monster.
It goes without saying, but if you, a Class B user, cannot inflict damage, neither can the students.
however
Incident at entrance exam.
He works harder than anyone else.
An uncanny talent for spearmanship.
Seongtae asked Jeongdo as if he were being drawn to something.
“Mr. Jeong-do. “Can you possibly hit the A-class boss monster?”
The other students were more dumbfounded by Seongtae’s question than the person involved. To be honest, it was absurd that Seongtae himself would ask such a question.
“no. Instructor. No matter how good Brother Jeong is, he is at best a student… .”
“yes. “It seems possible.”
“… … .”
Everyone was speechless due to the absurdity of the calm words.
“A little luck… “No, it is possible with a lot of luck.”
“… I believe it. Now, after the briefing, we will start attacking the boss.”
* * * * * *
“Whoa… .”
Jeongdo took a deep breath and calmed his mind.
Unexpected emergency. Even in this situation, he wasn’t foolish enough to hide his power. He had to overcome the crisis as best he could.
As I said before, I couldn’t even tell whether I would be really lucky or not.
During the period of training at the academy, Jeong-do chose the <Relationship Draw> a total of 6 times.
Considering the 4-week period, it was a very small number of times.
However, the academy’s curriculum was not difficult enough to follow while conserving mana. In order to survive the exams that were held every week, I had to train myself by using mana on a regular basis. When I finished training every day, my mana almost dropped below 10.
Because of that, I was only able to pick number 6.
There, I succeeded in getting a gold business card twice!
Thanks to this, the current amount of mana is 19. The ability level has also increased considerably. There was a reason why Jeong Do stood out at the Academy.
“Are you all ready?”
Seongtae spoke for the last time before entering the boss room.
“If it’s an A-level boss in an orc dungeon, it’s probably an orc hero. In the worst case scenario, it could be an Orc Lord… “First of all, with my skills, it will be possible to tie it up for a short period of time.”
Seongtae’s gaze turned towards Jeongdo.
“I hope that Mr. Jin Jeong-do will strike the blow at that time.”
“… All right.”
The task is enormous. Jeong Do strengthened his fighting spirit by tightly holding the King of All Diseases in the form of Bangcheonhwageuk.
“Then let’s rush in!”
Seongtae shouted and opened the door to the boss room.
The appearance of the boss is revealed.
It is four times larger than an ordinary orc. A face that is very suitable for the expression of a vicious murderer. There is even a huge war ax that can split even large rocks.
Oak Road.
Seongtae cursed under his breath. However, his body steadily activated his skills towards the Orc Lord.
“Mesmerize entangle!”
Whirly!
Tree vines grew from the ground and bound the Orc Lord’s legs.
It was an advanced mezugi that tied up the enemy’s feet and at the same time directed aggro towards itself. The Orc Lord who was hit by the skill flinched for a moment and looked at Seongtae.
“Kaaaaaa!”
Soon he started struggling to escape.
“Tsk! I can’t last long. Mr. Jeongdo!”
At Seongtae’s shout, Jeongdo activated his skill.
I loaded the wire with <Guaranteed Draw>!
<Confucius! It’s been a while… Ugh! What is that monster!>
“sorry. Yoo Seon. “I’m a little busy right now, so next time!”
While training at the academy, Jeongdo did not neglect researching his skills.
A question arose while thinking about the past and analyzing skills.
Why was it possible to use the <Status Window> skill when summoning Lu Bu and Yoo Seon?
If all of your information was changed to the information of the person you loaded at the moment of loading, it would be correct to not use <Status Window>, which is a skill of this level. But it was possible.
To some extent, a hypothesis was developed.
When you load it, your information is not displayed, but it exists. Also, you can use your own mana to activate your own skills.
The hypothesis turned out beautifully. As a result of the experiment, <Observation> was activated even when another person was loaded.
then,
What if you play <Dokga> with the wired connection loaded?
One more thing here.
After becoming a user, Jeong Do used the <Destiny Draw> a total of 9 times.
Follicular, mammary gland, bradamante. And 6 draws at the academy.
What Jeongdo felt while playing lottery games was that the lottery skills were very similar to Korean-style lottery games. Whether it’s good or bad.
Jeong Do believed his thoughts and activated the <Location Draw>.
Paaaaaa!
A notification window appears with hundreds of millions of business cards unfolding.
Tiring!
<The 10th bond draw is guaranteed rare or higher!>
Business cards falling down.
It was shining brightly like a diamond.
