Poison-Eating Healer Chapter 37

Episode 37

“A healer can catch a 3-star (★★★) magical beast in hand-to-hand combat. “It will be in the newspaper.”

While leaving the dungeon entrance, Yuk Cheol-wan was constantly shaking his head.

It’s no wonder he’s sticking his tongue out.

Because things happened one after another that overturned existing common sense.

A healer who enters the Poison Dungeon without any equipment, let alone heavy armament, and defeats more than ten ‘Evil Horses’ with a single sword and defeats the boss mob with his bare hands.

These must have been scenes that were hard to believe even after seeing them.

“We should have brought in one more person somehow.”

“why?”

“Because no one will believe me. The ‘healer’ who defeated Decolor Wolf. No one will believe it.”

“hmm. is that so.”

“How on earth did you get such power? Looking at your healing abilities, you clearly seem to be an ‘S’ rank healer… … .”

Even while receiving healing, Yuk Cheol-wan’s mouth moved constantly.

After leaving the dungeon, I immediately cast healing on Yukcheolwan.

Although he wore protective equipment, Yuk Cheol-wan had already reached the early stage of poisoning.

It’s a shame because he’s a knight type, but if he was an esper or another type, his face would have turned blue.

However, when I touched it, the poison on Yukcheolwan disappeared as if it had been washed away.

I don’t know anything else, but when it comes to curing addiction symptoms, I’m probably superior to Maria.

The target I had been wrestling with every day before my awakening was the monster Poison.

“With other healers, even if they are healed, they often remain sick for several days. But now I feel like I can go back into the dungeon as soon as tomorrow.”

“That’s a good thing. But I think it would be a good idea to change the gas mask and equipment. “I don’t think the performance is perfect compared to the weight.”

“I thought that too. Since I’m making good money today, I’m planning to stop by the device market on my way back. This is all thanks to Hunter Haeseon Cheon. “I was able to easily collect minerals without any interference.”

“It’s good. But did you find what you wanted other than minerals?”

Yuk Cheol-wan’s insect-like eyebrows twitch.

How to do that? That expression.

It’s really interesting because what this person is thinking is clearly revealed on his facial expression.

“How do you do that?”

I had a hard time holding back my laughter.

Actually, I was skeptical and asked this question.

The reason why ‘B’ rankers do not join the guild and wander through the poison dungeon.

Although minerals make money, it is not much different from the income from regular dungeons.

Besides, doesn’t this side only go to dangerous places like the Poison Dungeon?

Considering the so-called ‘life allowance’, this is by no means a profitable business.

Then, there is only one conclusion left.

Yuk Cheol-wan has another purpose other than ‘minerals’.

He was expressing with his whole body that my reasoning was correct.

“That’s amazing… … . “Does Hunter Cheon Hae-seon also have the characteristic of ‘aesthetic eyes’?”

“It’s not like that. However, the clan leader didn’t seem to have much fun here… … .”

“This amount of minerals is enough to cover several weeks of living expenses. I’m not particularly greedy for money. I just… … .”

Yuk Cheol-wan swipes his dirty beard with the palm of his hand.

“Like Hunter Haeseon Cheon said, I’m looking for a special item. “It’s called a ‘rare herb.’”

reel.

Did you just say rare plant?

“Rare herbs are something I have only heard of through rumors. I heard that it can cure diseases that cannot be cured with regular medicine. They say there are bronze, silver, and gold depending on the rating.”

This is a story that would be interesting to the average hunter.

But unfortunately, this person was the one who picked more than ten of those rare plants.

I decided to just stay silent and listen to his explanation.

In fact, very few people know about rare plants.

It is said that good fortune is recited every three years in a school, and Yuk Cheol-wan knew the identity of the rare plant, perhaps because he had worked as a ‘cleaner’ for a long time.

“I don’t even know how to get it. However, there is a reason why I must obtain the gold film.”

As I listened to his explanation, I suddenly felt sad.

The need for gold film means that there are ‘critically ill patients’ nearby who cannot be treated with normal methods.

And I can assure you that Yuk Cheol-wan will never be able to save that person.

He doesn’t know, but the quality of rare herbs is directly proportional to the difficulty of the dungeon.

I had a hard time mining silver coins, but for gold coins, the dungeon difficulty level should be 7 stars (★★★★★★★).

Even I couldn’t guarantee that level of difficulty, and it wasn’t an area that Yukcheolwan could handle.

Yuk Cheol-wan seems to think that the rare plant is something like wild ginseng that was grown by chance.

But unfortunately, the spirit creatures only grow in the residences of high-difficulty bosses.

Gathering took priority over killing boss mobs and clearing dungeons, so I couldn’t find any rare herbs.

“It looks like someone is very sick.”

Yuk Cheol-wan smiled bitterly at my cautious question.

“My wife was attacked by a monster and fell into a state of mental contamination. “While I was dispatched to another area.”

“… … !”

“haha. You don’t have to feel that bad. Isn’t it true that everyone has their own circumstances? Still, today’s harvest is significant, so it feels good to go home.”

After saying that, Yuk Cheol-wan walked briskly.

* * *

“If you’re going to hesitate that long, just do it.”

“ok?”

The flow of conversation is strange.

No, there was no conversation.

This was what my older sister suddenly said to me as I was eating dinner in silence.

“If you thought about it for three days, you thought about it for a long time. “I don’t know what it is, but just do it.”

“What was I doing?”

“Hehehe.”

My sister’s sad eyes turn into a crescent moon shape.

“You probably won’t remember. Because it was when I was very young. After thinking and hesitating for a week, I closed my eyes and asked to buy a toy robot. “It’s very similar now to then.”

“… … !”

I thought it wasn’t obvious, but my sister saw that it wasn’t like that at all.

Actually, I was worried.

About collecting gold films.

Mental pollution is a very terrible disease.

Because he cannot control his own body, he has to lie down every day, and of course he cannot handle things like going to the toilet on his own.

Besides being unable to express it, the person involved must struggle with the pain every day even while lying down.

I once saw an interview with a patient who was cured of mental pollution.

It is said that while he was fighting the disease, he looked earnestly at his family every day.

Please, just kill me.

“There is someone with a terrible disease.”

“oh. who? “Is it a very painful disease?”

“hmm… … . “It’s similar to the pain I experienced before awakening.”

“That’s really… … It’s literally a terrible disease… … .”

“I want to save you, but to do so, I have to go to a pretty dangerous dungeon. “It doesn’t make any money.”

The gold film will be very expensive, but since it will be used for treatment right away, all that is left is one black core.

From my perspective, it is not profitable.

“Nevertheless, seeing as you’re thinking about it, do you think it’s something you really want to do?”

“uh. So it’s a bit frustrating. “I just need to close my eyes, but it keeps getting caught in my eyes.”

“Why is that frustrating? “It’s a cool thing.”

“Cool thing?”

“huh. Cool thing. “Do you remember what Haeseon told me when he said you were taking the hunter exam?”

Of course I remember.

I will become the most powerful hunter in the world.

So that your life will no longer be judged by others.

“Weighing… … .”

I mentioned that word as if I was possessed by something.

“Yes, Haeseon. If you want to save people, just save them. No need to weigh this or that. Even if it doesn’t make money.”

oh… … .

Suddenly my sister looks a bit cool.

“You can claim the price of a life after saving it, right? lol.”

“… … .”

The wonderful sight disappeared without a trace in 3 seconds.

But thanks to this, I felt like my complicated mind was cleared up.

“thank you. sister. “I feel at ease.”

“Instead, if it gets really dangerous, just quit?”

“I will.”

I can’t make my family sad just to save others.

That’s how the ‘Golden Movie’ project began to help me survive and to help others survive as well.

* * *

“and… … . “Are you so obvious?”

“Hahaha. “This is all thanks to Hunter Haeseon Cheon.”

A week after conquering the first Poison Dungeon.

We arrived at the new 4-star (★★★★) Poison Dungeon in Heukseok-dong.

I wanted to go to the 7-star dungeon right away and look for gold, but I needed to gradually adapt to the toxins in the air.

It’s not me, it’s Yuk Cheol-wan.

“I invested all the profits from the minerals I collected last time. A new product is coming out, right?”

In fact, all of the ‘poison dungeon equipment’, including gas masks, gloves, and pants, had been replaced with new ones.

At first glance, it looks light and precise, and it appears to be suitable for more than just a 4-star dungeon.

“I… … “Yes, that is true.”

Yuk Cheol-wan asks me with a cautious expression.

“I wonder if Hunter Cheon Hae-seon has an antidote… … “Can I buy some?”

“Ohh?”

An antidote for the Poison Dungeon obtained from Bisu.

Before, even when asked to eat it, he vehemently refused, but now he seemed to think differently.

“Last time I came out of the dungeon, I was in pretty bad shape. If Hunter Haeseon Cheon hadn’t healed me, I would have suffered for several days. But actually, Hunter… … .”

“It was too normal?”

Then Yuk Cheol-wan is startled and waves his hands.

“Too much… … ?! “That is not my intention.”

know.

I knew it, but I was just making fun of it.

“I just… … After observing the effectiveness of the antidote, I felt like all of this equipment was useless… … .”

“hmm.”

I think I know what you mean.

I became addicted to it even though I was wearing a lot of heavy equipment, but this person was fine after just taking one pill, so I must have been hit hard.

In reality, he only had the antidote given by Bisu and never consumed it.

Even if I don’t absorb anything in particular, my body is in a healing state.

However, that does not mean that the efficacy of the drug has not been proven.

Before going to the poison dungeon with Yuk Cheol-wan, didn’t you go through quite a few dungeons with Bisu?

The efficacy has already been proven.

At the very least, it would be a much better tool than wearing a gas mask.

“Here you go.”

He took out the antidote from his pocket and gave it to Yuk Cheolwan’s hand.

“You can take one pill every three hours.”

“go… … thank you This precious item… … .”

Yuk Cheol-wan puts the pills in his arms as if he were putting them in a ceremonial urn and asks me the price.

“Hey. “Put it away.”

“yes? “What do you mean by that?”

“It’s the same ‘clan.’ “We live by helping each other.”

“Oh oh… … .”

A light of emotion shines in the eyes of Yuk Cheol-wan, whose hair has grown abundantly.

Even now, he looks so thrilled. How would he react if I told him about the ‘Golden Film Project’?

“Is this your first time in a 4-star dungeon?”

“no. “I have been to up to 5-star dungeons.”

It must be true because Yuk Cheol-wan is a person who is far from bragging.

If it was a 5 star dungeon, it would have been quite difficult.

“of course… … . From the 4-star dungeon onwards, I didn’t even come near the boss mob… … .”

Yuk Cheol-wan looks down and scratches his bushy beard.

He seems to feel embarrassed that he only played the role of a ‘cleaner’ as a hunter.

But now there is no need for that anymore.

You will find rare herbs and kill boss mobs to close the dungeon.

Before being eligible to become a hunter, you had to keep the boss mob alive, but now the association is requesting that you clear the poison dungeon first.

For me, who possesses Exa’s blade, there is nothing easier than killing a target.

“Let’s go in.”

Follow Yuk Cheol-wan’s guidance and enter the dungeon entrance.

As soon as I passed through the dark entrance, a damp feeling came over me.

“Clan leader. be careful. This place… … .”

“yes. “I feel it too.”

The more humid the atmosphere, the faster the toxin spreads.

Yuk Cheol-wan not only took the antidote but also meticulously wore the equipment he brought with him.

“… … “It’s a bit difficult from the start.”

It’s a cave.

A cave divided into several branches.

I’ve only been through swamps and forest areas, but this was my first time in a dungeon that looked like this.

“Why are you doing that?”

“I can sense strong toxicity from here, but the space is too small.”

I feel an unusual energy coming from a thin hole that I wonder if a cat could pass through.

It’s good to go hunting other monsters, but there’s nothing good about wasting time in a poison dungeon.

It would be too wasteful to go back on purpose.

What could be better?

“What else can I say? “Please leave it to me.”

“… … ?”

Yuk Cheolwan suddenly stands in front of me and sticks his gloved hand into the hole.

Soon his forearm swells like a balloon.

“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!”

Tdu-duk-duk.

ah.

I had forgotten for a moment that that person was a ‘B’ rank knight.

Amazingly, he was ‘tearing off’ the cave wall with his strength.

Is this a person or an excavator?

In the few seconds he showed his might, the hole in the wall grew several times larger.

There is no problem at all with just one person passing by.

“wow… … .”

The thickness of the cave wall appears to be longer than a person’s forearm.

To think of tearing this apart with your bare hands.

I can’t help but laugh.

“Let’s go. “Hunter Cheon Hae-seon!”

Perhaps excited at the thought of being helpful, Yuk Cheol-wan snorts and takes the lead.

It’s convenient for an ignorant(?) strong hunter in times like this.

“yes. going.”

I followed Yuk Cheol-wan with a strange smile.
