Episode 17
The process of breaking through the guards was ridiculously easy.
After scraping off some of Exa’s blade, which is in a ‘white dream’ state, place it in a paper wrapper.
Afterwards, Bisu approaches the guard in stealth mode and sprinkles white dream powder on the floor.
And after 1-2 minutes,
“Grung.”
In this way, the guard forgets his duty and sleeps, leaning against the wall.
The guards guarding this dungeon were not contract workers but level ‘E’ hunters, but there were no ordinary people or hunters who were incapacitated by Baekmong.
“If you think it’s going to be dangerous, get out first. “It doesn’t matter to me, but you are not immune to poison.”
“hey. Are you going to keep ignoring me? “I’m good at dungeon jjambap too, right?”
“I get caught up in being overconfident. Who knows if there might be another guy like Pori here?”
-Quwang!
“Ugh… … .”
Bisu stares at Pori with disapproving eyes.
As always, Pori was quite excited before entering the Poison Dungeon.
“It looks like a f*cking miniature dragon… … .”
-dream?
After grumbling at Pori once, Bisu starts to rummage around in his arms.
“ruler. “You take one too.”
“what’s this?”
“This is an ampoule developed by my family. The scent contained here stimulates the monsters and brings them to one place. “Poison types are especially crazy.”
“Incentive… … “Is it the same?”
“that’s right. You’re quick-witted. After spreading this in a quiet place, the rest of the people start working from a distance. “You want a smooth road to the boss monster, right?”
“Ohh… … .”
It’s definitely a good item.
It may be a slightly different direction than Bisu thinks.
There was something more curious than that.
“I don’t think Yasha has ever told me about this ampoule.”
“why. “You don’t like it even though it’s given to you for free?”
“No way. but… … .”
I smiled strangely and looked at Bisu’s fierce eyes.
“I feel like they’re paying special attention to me because they’re worried that I might get hurt.”
“It’s a bountiful harvest.”
Bisu snorts without any hesitation.
I think my lips twitched slightly before I answered.
Is it because of my mood?
“It’s easier for me if you get the job done quickly, right? “Because the antidote doesn’t last all day.”
“From ancient times, strong negativity is positive… … .”
Swish.
Bisu throws the ampoule at me as if he doesn’t want to hear any more.
Then he popped a few small pills into his mouth.
“eww… … write.”
This is an antidote to take before entering the poison dungeon.
Since Bisu enters the dungeon in a hidden state, he has no chance of being attacked by monsters.
However, you must be prepared for toxins flowing in the air.
This is the part that even experienced hunters have difficulty with even before meeting monsters.
It’s not easy to breathe, let alone fight, so it’s a struggle from the start.
“time is?”
“Three hours. But I’ll be back in two and a half hours.”
“Two and a half hours… … . “That’s enough.”
“her. You are confident. “Do you know where the monsters are?”
“It doesn’t matter where you are.”
When I make a strange smile, two thin lines appear between Bisu’s eyebrows.
“Because I’m going to call them all out.”
“What is that… … .”
Before Bisu finished speaking, I sprayed the ampoule she gave me all over my body.
“oh! “Hey you crazy guy!”
Bisu jumps in place and looks at me with eyes filled with astonishment.
Since he used the ampoule himself, which was supposed to be used as a decoy, it would be completely incomprehensible to his way of thinking.
However, the ultimate reason I looked for poison monsters was not rare plants.
Absorbs cores from poison monsters and accumulates black ether.
Becoming stronger and stronger again.
So much so that I don’t have to have my life weighed against anyone.
This is why I visit poison dungeons even before I became a hunter.
In that sense, this ampoule was a great item for me.
Just like hunting in an online game, all you have to do is gather mobs together and hold an experience point event.
“haha. Better hurry, right? “Nothing good will come from sticking to me.”
“You psycho! You idiot! psychopath!”

She quickly left, leaving me those warm greetings.
Encountering monsters is something I don’t want to do.
It’s easier to clear them all at once rather than stumbling along the way. cancer.
Ugh.
Exa’s blade, which was in a white dream, returned to its original black color.
Now, those who are cut by this dagger will enter a state deeper than sleep.
“wow… … .”
The performance of the ampoule was solid.
Not long after entering the dungeon forest, a large-scale goblin general meeting (!) was held.
-Gerururuk.
After all, it’s a black market.
Performance is solid.
I activated the black ether and grabbed Exa tightly.

<Infected Goblin / type – Poison, Warrior / Kill Difficulty 1 star (★) / Physical Level ‘E’ / Other Level ‘D’>
This is the information on the guys listed in V1.
Not to mention the ‘other level’ that reflects toxicity, the physical level is also one level below me.
At this level, there is no need to use ‘reading’.
I dropped them like fallen leaves to the point where the Warrior type was embarrassed.
Suddenly.
-Geez!!
100 animals?
No, I think there were over 200.
The king of poisons that kills you with just a passing glance.
Black ether is not only the energy source of my body, but also the most powerful poison that exists in the world.
The danger was at a level that overwhelmed the ‘monster poison’ that had plagued my body my whole life.
Suddenly.
dump-
I decapitated the last goblin in sight.
The guys who had been wondering what this was when the blade passed by quickly turned their eyes and fell down.
It takes longer to extract their black core than to subdue them.
Later, due to time constraints, those who seemed weak had to just pass.
<User information>
<Black ether in possession: 2332BA>
<Body enhancement ability: ‘D’>
<Self-healing ability: ‘S’>
<Holding skill: Poisonous skill – level 2>
This is information provided by V1 after the goblin massacre.
Now, the amount of black ether he created and absorbed himself is greater than the black ether handed over by Kirill.
It was disappointing that other levels were at a standstill, but I felt satisfied seeing the amount of black ether increasing day by day.
“Sniff.”
It smells familiar.
No, to be precise, it is a scent that I tried to get used to.
When black ether is taken root throughout the body, not only does muscle tissue become stronger, but all nerves become more sensitive.
Although it is not yet at a level where the stealth skill can be detected, a special scent can be detected from a distance.
The developed sense at the tip of my nose was giving me directions.
Rare herb.
A scent similar to the movie was beckoning me from beyond.
“desert?”
There was a dense forest right behind, but now it was a desert.
It looks very heterogeneous.
I guess they weren’t wrong when they said that any environment can exist inside a dungeon.
It is a rare plant in the middle of the desert.
How strong is its self-reliance that it can grow in such an empty area?
Sabagsabag.
I walk around the desert following the scent.
There is no place where there is no clear view in all directions.
Conversely, it also means that the person who should be there is not visible.
‘Where is he?’
Rare plants only grow around boss monsters.
If you look at the strong scent of rare herbs, it means that there is definitely a boss mob in this area.
But no matter where I look, I don’t see even a single goblin, let alone a boss mob.
Has someone already done it?
No, if the boss monster had been captured, the dungeon would have already been destroyed.
The moment I was scanning everywhere to find rare plants.
Suddenly, goosebumps appear all over my body.
Green onions.
Puhak!!
It was a surprise attack so fast that I had to unconsciously use ‘dogbo’.
The direction from which the attack came is directly below.
It was under the desert sand.
‘I almost fell behind.’
It was an attack so threatening that it made my heart chill.
It has countless legs and a hard shell that looks like it can repel most weapons.
A large bell that sticks out half its body and tilts its head.
I glared at him and called V1.
<Poison centipede / type – Poison / kill difficulty 4 stars (★★★★) / physical level ‘B’ / other level ‘A’>
“f*ck… … .”
The dungeon’s difficulty level was 4 stars (★★★★), so I was prepared, but this one turned out to be more difficult than I expected.
It was my first time seeing a pattern of sudden attacks from under the ground, and more than anything, the compatibility was not good.
This is because the sandy field of the desert was a stage where it was difficult to use ‘Dokbo’.
Phew!
“Tsk!”
The poisonous centipede, which entered the ground again, soon reared out its vicious horn from underfoot again.
shit.
Because it’s under the sand, you can’t really feel the monster’s energy.
Rather than finding rare plants, we are in a hurry to avoid its attacks.
‘Dokbo’ cannot deliver even half of its performance in this soft desert.
Moreover, his physical level is ‘B’.
It was not a level I could handle, having just risen to the ‘D’ level.
‘How do I…’ … .’
While I was thinking about this and that, it came up from the ground again.
Green onions!
I couldn’t avoid it completely this time.
Its horns scratched my thighs.
Grumble.
Blood clings to my pants, but I don’t have time to worry about that.
What do we do?
‘You can kill. but… … .’
If you take one attack from him and scrape him away with Exa, the job will be over easily.
However, if that happens, the rare plants nearby will also lose their lives.
You must neutralize the 4-star (★★★★) monster without killing it.
Even a decent A-level hunter would find this difficult.
“Why are you still?”
As soon as the attack fails, the guy who was hiding under the sand sticks out his disgusting upper body.
like.
Like a person waiting for something.
Come to think of it, have you ever seen his whole body?
How long is your body? … .
Pow!
As soon as I can finish my thoughts, I feel a dizzying blow from behind.
“Ugh.”
I flew several meters and landed face first in the sand.
Is this a physical level ‘B’ attack?
It feels like my entire spine has been crushed.
Without any way to soothe the pain, something flashing rises up from underneath my head.
Phew!
I rolled over and barely managed to block his attack.
Ijisunda attacks by striking from the front with its horns and swooping from behind with its tail.
After gritting my teeth and getting up, I took out the small spheres from my arms.
Grrrr… … .
Monsters whose attacks work usually react like that.
How are you alive?
reactions.
They don’t even know.
That fleeting moment is one of the few opportunities given to them.
“Tsk!”
I spat out blood and began to dissolve the black sphere into black ether.
These are the remaining black cores extracted from the goblin just before.
I could have absorbed as much as I wanted, but it was a godsend that I saved it just in case.
This is because when you absorb black ether, you not only recover your energy but also instantly heal wounds on your body.
I inhaled black ether into my body like drinking a potion.
Slur… … .
The wounds on my thighs and the pain in my back gradually subside.
Are you angry at my recovery?
The guy dug into the sand with nervous movements.
f*ck.
Because I’m more angry?
Although it has recovered rapidly, the war situation is still the same.
The less efficient Dokboro is busy avoiding his attacks.
Exa, who is in a ‘white dream’ state, is held in my hand without finding an opportunity to swing.
“It’s useless like this.”
Wiggle.
“?”
Did I feel wrong?
Exa seems to have flinched at her ‘body’ when she was told it was useless.
Wooooow-
It wasn’t an illusion.
Exa trembled on her own and soon escaped my grasp.
Phew!
Before I had time to catch it again, I rolled my body once more to avoid the centipede.
Meanwhile, Exar began to change his body ‘in the air’.
Keyring Keyring.
oh.
I’ve seen something like that in a movie before.
Scenes where machines transform themselves.
The cube-shaped Exa, which returned to a cube, split in half and changed into a long oval shape.
If I had to describe the shape… …
footprint.
Yes, it resembles a footprint.
Clap.
Exa, which came to find its owner, dug into the sand and stuck to the soles of my sneakers.
Why on earth is he doing this?
The answer was given by V1.
<User information>
<Exa Shift Evolution: You can now use Booster functions other than Dagger.>
booster?
Booster?
“oh… … .”
The feeling underfoot is definitely different.
It feels like you are standing on flat ground, or even tighter than flat ground, from the floor.
When I took a peek to see what had happened, I saw that the Exa attached to the bottom of the sneakers was emitting black ether towards the floor.
Exa solved the soft and uneven floor of the desert.
“good. If it’s like this… … .”
The efficacy of Exar, which was changed to booster form, could be proven immediately.
Faba Park!!
I just used ‘Venom’ like before, but the poisonous centipede missed my attack and couldn’t even detect my shadow.
Much faster speed than usual ‘reading alone’ has become possible… … !
‘If it’s this good, it might be worth a try with Cyril’s solo.’
Behind the confused Venom Centipede, I smiled in satisfaction.
