Even while Jeong-do was away on an expedition for a long time, the situation on Earth was surprisingly not bad.

“It was big that leveling up became easier at some point. “Because the level of users across the planet has increased explosively.”

It was a fact that no one except Jeong Do knew, but in fact, there was an experience lock on Earth in the past. No matter how much stronger monsters were than your level, your level never increased by more than 1. The only way to level up quickly was to go through many dungeons.

However, the experience level lock has been unlocked. Naturally, users around the world were outraged.

“Some scholars even argued that that day should be designated as ‘Evolution Day,’ saying that humanity evolved to the next level starting from that day.”

“They are interesting people.”

Jeongdo chuckled at Seoyoon’s explanation.

At the time, I just thought ‘Oh, the experience level lock has been unlocked’ and brushed it off, but I never thought it would be seen that way by some people. For people who don’t even know that experience locks exist, it may be more reasonable to believe that humanity suddenly evolved.

‘Then I evolved mankind.’

Jeongdo chuckled once again. It is truly a feat that only a god can do. The <One God> talent I acquired a while ago naturally came to mind.

“Anyway, after that day, it became possible to level up and many people started researching. Is there an upper limit to this level gain? If one person in the party hunts, does it apply to the entire party? Is there a bonus for hitting the last hit? Is it better to kill several weak monsters or one strong monster? etc.”

“It looks like you’re making some kind of game guide.”

“I don’t know because I haven’t played the game, but it seemed like other people felt the same way.”

And that research yielded results.

Through numerous trials and errors, data was accumulated, and an optimized level-up route was established based on such data, resulting in the creation of the ‘Standard Level-Up Guide’.

“Currently, in the user industry, how solid these guidelines are has become an indicator for dividing large guilds. “It’s natural that people flock to guilds that have a proper level-up route.”

“hmm.”

At Seo-yoon’s words, Jeong-do stroked his chin and nodded. Just by hearing those words, I could roughly guess what the scenery was like.

“In the end, the fight will be how many bus drivers we have.”

“yes. That’s correct. “All guilds are trying hard to recruit high-level users.”

When the concept of level appears, whether in reality or in a game, it is an element that cannot be left out.

It was ‘raising’ the so-called ‘dope’ or ‘bus’.

As the experience lock was removed, guilds began to become active, and large guilds once again experienced a revival.

It was only natural that higher-level users could ride the bus more safely.

And the highest level user on Earth was right here.

“Then let’s get ready.”

“It’s been a while. older brother. “Is this the first time since Mt. Fuji?”

“Because the fight with the angel in China wasn’t on a bus. “It’s the first time since then that I’ve done it purely for leveling purposes.”

“Time flies so fast. “It seems like it was just yesterday.”

Jeong Do and his party were currently standing in front of an SS-class dungeon.

There were a total of four people in the group, excluding Jeong-do.

They are Seoyoon, Haesik, Ryu Se-rin, and Yoo Seon. Of course, in addition to this, Tinia was secretly hiding in Seoyoon’s shadow.

“Then, we will start immediately after reporting if there is anything wrong. Anyone have any questions?”

“doesn’t exist!”

“good. Then let’s leave right away. “It goes full speed ahead.”

Afterwards, the entire party entered the SS-class dungeon, and Jeongdo ran quickly after confirming that everyone in the group was inside the dungeon.

“Kweek?”

Abyss Arachne felt something flying towards her and raised her head.

“Keeeeek!”

The moment he felt the wind passing through his body, he collapsed to the floor. All eight legs of Abyss Arachne were cut off.

‘It’s easier than I thought.’

He nodded as if satisfied with the extent to which he had neutralized Arachne in an instant. One leg was cut deeper than expected, but this was acceptable. He failed to control his strength and seemed unlikely to kill Arachne all at once.

After finishing off one Abyss Arachne, I set out to find my next target. As I magnified the feeling as much as possible, I began to feel the presence of Abyss Arachne here and there.

“Sigh!”

After taking a short breath, he became lightning again and tore through the dungeon. As always, a neutralized Arachne was lying around where he passed.

One of the methods introduced by Jeongdo to train guild members.

High-speed bus.

Jeongdo decided to operate a high-speed bus that no other user except himself could do. Of course, when I first mentioned this method, Seoyoon and Haesik resisted.

‘older brother! You can become strong just by relying on that… … .’

‘brother. I think so too. What does it mean to become this strong? … .’

‘Who does this?’

‘yes?’

‘I’m prepared. ‘Because there won’t be enough time to sleep from now on.’

I also agreed with their opinions. There is a limit to how strong you can become with a bus.

The level may have risen rapidly, but there were things that could only be learned in actual battles where one’s life was at stake, such as improvising in an emergency situation and understanding the situation when left alone.

But does that mean we should give up the advantage of ‘high leveling’? The world’s best bus driver is right next to you?

Jeongdo shook his head. The increase in status due to leveling up can never be ignored. Since ancient times, the higher the stats, the better.

‘Then let’s do both.’

You can’t give up on life-threatening battles, and you can’t give up on status through leveling up.

So do both. The conclusion was somewhat simple. Of course, it will not be simple for those involved in the training.

“Kkieek!”

“Noisy.”

Shoo!

When Jeongdo swung his sword once, his legs were cut off once again. How many fish did you kill with this? twenty? thirty? Anyway, I got quite a bit done.

In this bus training, what Jeong Do asked the group was simple.

Follow yourself as much as possible and only hit the dying monster last time. This excludes the task of searching through monster corpses to obtain by-products. During that time, at least add a sharp knife.

It goes without saying, but the items that SS-class dungeon monsters spit out are no joke. Since it was a dungeon that still hasn’t been properly explored, it was worth calling.

‘It’s trash compared to what’s in Skurakto’s warehouse.’

Of course, it didn’t mean anything to him.

I used to be obsessed with wealth, but now it really has no meaning. SS-level dungeon? It’s just a den of miscellaneous items. It is several times more profitable to kill one more monster while picking up what comes out of there.

“Are they all here?”

Jeong Do arrived in front of the boss room in an instant. After waiting there for some time, the group appeared. Perhaps because they were running at full speed, their breathing was quite disturbed.

“You took care of everything, right?”

“Huh, huh. yes. older brother. A total of 107 animals. “I took care of everything.”

“Good job. “I’ve reserved 8 SS-level dungeons today, so I’ll take care of them all.”

“… … yes.”

It was said earlier that the level of users increased explosively, but unfortunately, it was not only the level of users that increased.

As the cataclysm progressed, the level of dungeons that appeared also increased explosively. In the past, there were only a few SS-class dungeons in the world, but now there are more than 10 in one country.

No matter how strong the users became, the SS-class dungeon was still a place where even the highest level users could not guarantee their lives if they attacked, and if things continued like this, the end of the Earth was no different from what was predicted. Just like the Earth in the ‘real universe’.

However, I don’t know if it was the existence of the degree that caused the butterfly effect or if other factors intervened, but here once again magical engineering has created a miracle.

The dungeon closing system developed by Ellie McDowell has been significantly upgraded.

99% success rate in closing up to SS dungeon level. It was truly a great achievement that could be called a ‘victory of scientific civilization!’ Now humanity only has to deal with 1% of disasters. Ellie MacDowell won her fourth Nobel Peace Prize for this work.

It was safe to say that it was actually safe unless they were people like the ‘Heavenly World’ and the ‘Demon World’ who could force their way onto Earth through dimensional contracts.

“Like I said before, I won’t do anything in the boss room. Get over it yourself. “If you die, that’s it.”

gulp.

Everyone swallowed their saliva as Jeong-do calmly spoke without changing his expression.

“I speak for the last time. If you want to give up, now is your last chance… .”

“older brother. “Let’s proceed quickly.”

“… … .”

“If I was going to give up like this, I wouldn’t have picked up the sword in the first place.”

“Honestly, I’d like to think about it a little… .”

Yuseon said that in a very low voice at the end, but everyone ignored his voice. He even ignored the extent to which he had spoken.

I don’t know about anyone else, but Wired is an exception. He does it unconditionally, regardless of the doctor! He had to roll for his life. Thanks to someone, he survived, but he lost his foot!

“Then, as I understand that no one is giving up, we are conducting a boss raid as of now. “Be sure to survive.”

“No, Confucius. therefore… .”

“I trust you.”

“… … “I’m depressed.”

Yoo Seon muttered as if she had given up and then lowered her head. Do-do chuckled to himself. Although it has changed a lot, the best character in the Three Kingdoms was still a symbol of timidity and weakness.

‘Anyway, I’m going to kill you.’

It is a fact that only Jeong-do knows, but the strongest among the beings here, other than himself, is Yoo Seon.

The highest talent in battle, <Heavenly Mujiche>.

And <Kang Un>, who is rare even in the universe.

In addition, how many talents and skills are being wasted day by day by degree? Cheok Jun-gyeong grumbled that Do-do was eating raw fish, but it was nothing compared to Yu-seon. Jeong Do was planning to use this opportunity to correct his timid personality.

When Jeong-do took a step back, Haesik took the lead. Behind them were Yoo Seon and Ryu Se-rin, and the last rearguard was Seo-yoon.

It was a standard formation consisting of tanker, dealer, and supporter.

“inrush!”

“Oooh!”

When Do-do shouted, Hae-sik screamed and kicked the boss room door. And she rushed into the boss room without the slightest hesitation. Other party members also followed.

When Seo-yoon entered last, Jeong-do jumped up from his spot and kicked the ceiling above the boss room door.

Coo!

As the ceiling collapsed, rubble began to fill the entrance. The escape route was completely blocked. As a result, the party had no choice but to defeat the boss in order to survive.

“Kaaaaagh!”

Arachne Queen’s angry voice came from beyond the wall. The battle has begun. Jeongdo looked at the boss room for a moment with calm eyes and then turned around.

Apart from the rest of the group, there was still one thing left for Jeong Do to do.

‘As expected, I like the dungeon because there are no eyes to see.’

In fact, all of Jeongdo’s abilities were something that would be scary if revealed to others, but from now on, what he had to do was especially something that should not be noticed by others. Just thinking about how he would be misunderstood made him feel bothered.

The degree opened the status window.

One of the categories lined up was shining brightly.

‘transcendence.’

I had already seen the flashing of that transcendental category before. Because it was the same phenomenon for me when I transcended the wire to reality.

Jeong Do transcended reality without hesitation.

Faaah!

A light so strong that it could blow away all the darkness in the dungeon appeared before Do-do’s eyes. And in that light, a man’s silhouette slowly began to emerge.

Flash!

And when the silhouette became completely clear, light exploded.

Next, a man’s cheerful voice was heard.

“haha! It’s been a while, friend. “I never imagined we would be able to meet face to face like this.”

A man with short, brown-blond hair.

The greatest spearman in Irish mythology. Son of God and Prince of Light.

Cu Chulainn.

He has transcended into reality.

“I hope to go along well.”

“Please just leave it to me. This grace. I will pay you back with my life. “I swear by the name Cu Chulainn.”

The SSS guild steadily grew stronger.
