Episode 39
<arcanus bat / BOSS / type – combat type, flight type / kill difficulty 5 stars (★★★★★) / physical level ‘C’ / other level ‘A’ / exclusive skill – Stealth: in flight You can hide yourself. Exclusive skill – Assault: When descending and attacking the target, it inflicts damage that exceeds the physical level.>
Damage that exceeds the physical level.
Looking at the actual cavernous floor, it appears to have gone far beyond the ‘C’ level.
The reason his guitar level is ‘A’ is probably because he can use stealth.
He is a difficult opponent in many ways.
Flying type, stealth, and even attack.
If Yuk Cheol-wan had come here alone, he would have been toyed with until his last breath and then died.
– Kiik.
The strange cries of the Arcanus Bat echo from an unseen place.
From left to right.
From bottom to top.
As if he was teasing us while we were looking around, he kept changing his location.
“Hunter Cheon Hae-seon. “What should I do?”
Battle is possible if you have a stealth detection device.
But that’s not in our hands.
It’s a ridiculously expensive piece of equipment.
In the case of Bisu, he was caught by Pori because he didn’t know how to do anything other than ‘stealth’, but Arcanus Bat’s physical level is also quite formidable.
“… … !!”
Again, a sharp sensation is felt in the rear.
As before, I pushed the six-wheeled arm away with my foot and then used ‘Dogbo’ to leap to the ceiling.
bang!!!
‘It’s now…’ … !’
Flying types are vulnerable to attacks from above.
This is because, since you are flying in the sky, you do not think that there is something above you.
The bat hadn’t found me yet, and I took advantage of my psychological loophole and swung Exa as soon as I landed.
Boom.
However, Arcanus Bat, who noticed it too late, cast a stealth skill and my attack split the air.
“shit… … .”
It would be nice if I could fly.
No, it’s not like you can catch it just because it’s flying in the sky now.
The only time it reveals its true nature is when it attacks.
“Hunter Cheon Hae-seon. “I will be the bait.”
Yuk Cheol-wan makes a suggestion with a solemn look on his face.
“Attack the moment its claws slice through my body. “Hunter’s weapon is not of average power, so it will definitely work.”
“I don’t think it’s a very good idea. “If you are attacked like that when you have just finished healing, the damage will be increased.”
“But there is no other way. “Use me as a shield.”
Tanks are mostly good-natured.
To put it in a bad way, should I say that it fell apart and exploded?
When a crisis arises, they always show a spirit of sacrifice.
Well, if you wanted to be a hero, you wouldn’t have chosen a tank in the first place.
“And, I think that’s better than getting kicked every time like this.”
Yuk Cheol-wan added while rubbing his butt.
“… … ah.”
There was a reason for that.
In the name of protecting the insensitive Yuk Cheol-wan, I already kicked his ass twice.
How do I do it?
Like Yuk Cheol-wan said, will they use him as bait and attack the moment he attacks?
However, if you use stealth immediately after attacking, there is no guarantee that you will land an effective hit.
If only I could tie his feet for just one moment… … .
‘Tie your feet… … .’
Suddenly, a mysterious trick came to mind.
There’s a way to tie his feet.
“You will do that. “It will hurt a lot, but please bear with it for a moment.”
“Just leave it to me!”
Yuk Cheolwan snorts and spreads his arms wide.
By increasing the range of attack, one voluntarily becomes the target of an attack.
“Come, you damned bat!”
-Kick!
Did Yuk Cheol-wan’s provocation work?
The cries of the Arcanus bat, full of metal sounds, can be heard.
Judging by the hostility in his voice, the next target is likely to be Yuk Cheol-wan.
In addition, I am close behind Yuk Cheol-wan’s back, so the range of attack is not wide.
“Local strengthening. “You know how to do it, right?”
“yes? Yeah, a little… … .”
Probably not a little bit.
‘Local strengthening’, which strengthens the body by activating ether in a specific area.
That’s because it was a skill that could be learned at a ‘D’ rank.

“Immediately after receiving an attack, concentrate your mind and cast Local Strengthening.”
“Uh, where do you mean?”
“ear.”
As soon as I answer, a chilling feeling comes from all around me.
Sigh.
“Ugh!!”
Claws as hard as cast iron are dug into Yukcheolwan’s chest.
It was truly a lightning attack.
The movement itself may be fast, but it feels even faster because it is basically in a ‘stealth’ state.
“You rat… … !!”
He quickly takes out Exa and comes back in front of Yuk Cheol-wan.
As expected, the clever Arcanus Bat was already in the process of hiding.
I activated my newly learned ‘skill’ towards him.
[Don’t be damned!!!!!]
-Kick?!
The hiding of the Arcanus Bat, which was rapidly disappearing, suddenly stopped.
No, the ongoing hiding was being lifted.
A skill that is more effective against bat-type monsters with sensitive hearing.
After the Lion (獅子吼).
This is a unique skill obtained after absorbing the singing harpy’s core.
<Lion’s Hood – Level 1 / Binds the other person’s mind by adding ether to the voice.>
It is usually used to put pressure on humans when talking to each other, but if the target is a bat-like monster, the story is different.
Since they are a race with very sensitive hearing, even Level 1 could cause quite a bit of damage.
Since Lion’s Roar, which was already vulnerable, was hit directly at very close range, there would be no time to escape.
“Now, Hunter Cheon Haeseon!!”
Yuk Cheol-wan shouted at me while blood was pouring from his chest like a waterfall.
I know better than anyone else.
There is no better time than now to take him down.
I immediately caught up with the guy who was trying to get away and swung Exa like lightning.
Suddenly.
-Kick!!!
Arcanus Bat, wandering like a dragonfly that has lost one of its wings, falls after being hit by Exa’s white blade.
Oh.
I wish it would go away quickly, but not now.
I rushed over and caught the falling Arcanus Bat.
“Safe!”
“Hunter Cheon Hae-seon… … ?”
Yuk Cheol-wan looks at me with wide eyes.
There’s always a time when they point a knife at you as if they’re going to kill you, but now that you’re saving them, it’s worth it.
But I can’t kill him right now.
No, you should never die.
sparkle.
It’s a similar shade of brown, but there’s an object hanging there that’s shiny enough to be clearly distinguishable.
“It may hurt, but bear with it.”
Yuk Cheol-wan is not ready to die right now.
But we need to get that guy hanging over there as soon as possible.
A rare herb that loses strength as the boss mob’s condition worsens.
Because the hanging object was a ‘bronze flower.’
Green onions.
Jump by concentrating as much black ether on your legs as possible.
It would be easier to convert Exa into a ‘booster’ form, but there is no time to transform it now.
After digging up the movie by running along the wall, I was barely able to return to my original position.
“Ugh. Look at this blood. “I’ll fix it quickly.”
“Hunter Cheon Hae-seon… … that… … case… … ?”
Yuk Cheolwan’s whole body is shaking.
It’s not because I’m addicted like I used to be.
It’s not because a lot of blood was shed.
There is so much passion happening that it is impossible to keep the body still.
An item I have been looking for for over ten years.
Rare herb.
The feeling of finding that clue was something I couldn’t even imagine.
“that’s right. “Rare herb.”
“oh my god… … .”
As if he had completely forgotten the pain in his chest, Yuk Cheol-wan knelt down with a face filled with emotion.
* * *
“Then let’s go first!!”
Yuk Cheol-wan, who has finished healing, runs through the dungeon cave with his eyebrows fluttering.
There is only one reason why he leaves the cave first.
It’s because of the copper film in my hand.
Yuk Cheol-wan held Donghwa in his arms as if he were attending a memorial service, and then ran away at full speed.
I warned him that if he didn’t get out of the dungeon right now, the movie would wither.
Of course it’s lame.
Because the movie won’t fade away as long as the boss mob in the dungeon is alive.
There was quite a bit of time left until the bat woke up, but I sent Yukcheolwan in a hurry.
Because there was something I needed to check on my own.
Pot.
I left behind the sleeping Arcanus Bat, oblivious to the world, and leaped to the wall of the cave where I pulled out the movie.
I had to grab hold of a nearby stone and hang on to it, but it wasn’t too much of a burden for a ‘D’ rank strong body.
“Sniff.”
When I arrived at the dungeon entrance, I could feel two energies.
The fishy and unpleasant smell of monster poison and the special scent of rare herbs.
I was skeptical at first, but after seeing the place where the movie grew, I was convinced.
A special scent that only rare herbs can produce.
I could now clearly distinguish the scent.
‘This is an unexpected income.’
Being able to confirm the existence of rare plants is quite meaningful.
Because you can decide whether you should drag this dungeon for a long time or finish it right away.
How much time was wasted looking for rare plants that never existed in the first place.
However, now, from the moment I entered the Poison Dungeon, I was able to clearly establish my strategy.
If you see the scent of a rare herb, look for it, and if you don’t find it, immediately eliminate the boss mob.
“In a way, I guess I should say that it has become easier thanks to this guy… … .”
A bitter smile escapes me when I see the sleeping Arcanus Bat.
As I was looking for the hiding guy, the location of the movie came into view.
If he was a normal fighting type, it would have taken a lot of time to find Donghwa to block the attack.
“bye.”
By now, Yuk Cheol-wan would have already escaped the dungeon.
Exa’s blade had suddenly changed to the color of black ether.
Suddenly.
His complexion, which was already ashen, instantly changed to an earthy color.
Arcanus Bat died while he was in such a deep sleep.
He cuts off Exa’s sword, which was inserted into his chest.
Soon, the black core of the 5-star (★★★★★) boss mob appeared.
sparkle.
The name ‘black’ core is meaningless, as the surface is shiny.
How does it feel to see a big black pearl?
I’m not sure if it’s because it’s the boss mob guarding the dungeon, or because it’s a high-grade guy.
What is certain is that this core is now a part of me.
Slurrr… … .
It feels like the fatigue accumulated while conquering the dungeon disappears at once.
The boss-level core definitely works well with weak shots.
After the core was absorbed, I was back in the best condition as when I entered the dungeon.
<User information>
<Black ether in possession: 3,012BA>
<Body enhancement ability: ‘D’>
<Healing ability: ‘S’>
<Telekinesis: ‘F’>
<Skills: Possession – level 2 / Communion – level 1 / Lion’s Roar – Level 1>
Black ether level exceeded 3,000.
And a new level of telekinesis that was not available before was created.
If it is an ‘F’ grade, it is an insignificant amount that cannot be registered as an Esper, but considering that there was no such marking before, the growth was a definite growth.
Is it because it’s a boss mob that uses stealth?
Its type was clearly ‘flying/fighting type’, but its telekinesis level seems to have increased after absorbing the core.
“Hunter Cheon Hae-seon. Thank you for your hard work.”
As I pass through the dungeon entrance, Yuk Cheol-wan approaches me with an expression on his face.
For me, this would be my first time conquering a 4-star poison dungeon or discovering a rare herb.
His hand holding the movie trembles slightly.
I don’t have the rare herb that can cure my wife, but just discovering a similar type will give me great hope.
“Be prepared, clan leader.”
“yes?”
“We will continue to increase the difficulty of the Poison Dungeon in the future.”
“What is that… … .”
I smiled, showing my teeth at Yuk Cheol-wan’s puzzled face.
“Geumyeonghwa(金永花). We will find it.”
