– Volume 5, Episode 12
12. Underground Tunnel (2)
The inside of the dungeon ‘Underground Tunnel’ had a similar appearance to the tunnel you had passed through to enter the dungeon.
The only difference is that there is a fork in the road.
“I will disperse and clean up the monsters.”
The clear condition of the dungeon was the annihilation of all monsters.
The 3rd area was scattered and hunting was possible, so it was divided into 5 teams of 3 to 4 people each and scattered at a fork in the road.
The players who accompanied Hoya were Luna and Gangnam Firefist.
“Hoya-sama, the inside is quite complicated, so you can’t fall.”
“Yes.”
The three started moving in search of monsters in the form of Hoya and Gangnam Firefist taking the lead and Luna following.
At that time, Gangnam Firefist, who was standing next to Hoya, spoke to him.
“Hoya-sama, Hoya-sama.”
“Yes.”
“Hoya-sama, are you Korean?”
Hoya stopped walking at Gangnam Firefist’s question, and when she stopped in front of them, Luna came closer to them wondering what was going on.
“Uh…, that…”
“I saw that reaction, too! Where do you live? Seoul? Incheon?”
“…how did you know?”
“I saw a video that Yoo Ah-nim took. You said that at the time. It is a saying in Korea that words become seeds. There are proverbs in each country that have the same meaning, but only Korea says it like that, right?”
Just yesterday, a video filmed by YooA was released through Barney’s streaming.
Since the subject of Hoya was a good material to attract viewers, most of the conversation between YooA and Hoya was released unedited, and those with a keen eye caught one piece of information in the conversation.
‘Words become seeds’, which Hoya expressed as a Korean proverb, allowed people to infer his nationality.
It was just a guess, but when the speculation came out, there were a lot of doubts.
The first broadcast he appeared on was a Korean program, and Baek Seol, the guild master of Seol Baek-ho, who was with him when he first appeared in public, was also a granddaughter of the Korean people group.
Based on that, people almost certainly accepted the speculation, saying that the blood of Koreans started to come back to life during the gaming powerhouse in the heyday of e-sports in the past.
“Hoya, were you Korean?”
“Is that right? Is that right?”
“…for now, I’ll do that.”
“Yeah! Would the three of us have dinner in Gangnam later?”
“I’ll decline that… … three?””Ah, I’m Korean too.”
Gangnam Fire Fist, who found out what she was curious about, and Luna, who found out something unexpected thanks to him, felt very good.
If Hoya was Korean, it was rumored that it would be held implicitly now, because the probability of Korea winning the ‘it’ was increasing.
Having resolved their curiosity, they began to move back to where they had stopped with satisfied faces.
And after a while they were able to face the monster.
Just before turning the corner, a monster that had been hiding by lowering its body swung its long claws towards Hoya.
“Kiyayaak-!”
Kagak-!
As Hoya drew his sword from its sheath and blocked his claws, the monster opened his mouth abnormally wide and extended sharp fangs toward Hoya.
However, the fangs could not reach him due to Hoya’s foot hitting the monster’s abdomen.
The appearance of the monster was similar to that of a human.
The only difference was that the pupils were all red, with no distinction between white and black, and the long, sharp nails and the crooked back with protruding lumps.
[Vampire in the Underground Tunnel]Level: 301
Hoya had heard all of the monster’s name and attack pattern before entering the dungeon.
Among them, the most important thing they emphasized was that they should never be bitten.
It is said that if bitten, the HP will be drained out in a lump due to vampirism.
Nettle-!
Hoya was hit in the stomach and jumped slightly, catching up with the vampire who flew backwards and swung his sword, and the vampire disappeared as a light after a while.
Behind the vampire, who was disappearing into light, the eyes of other vampires could be seen emitting red eyes.
“Holly Ray.”
A beam of light was shot at the vampires.
Gangnam Fire Fist momentarily closed his eyes to the bright light emitted from a dark space without prior notice and then opened it again, and all the vampires that were hit by the direct hit turned into light and disappeared, and even the vampire who escaped the direct hit was unable to move properly.
“Wow…… Carrie’s recognition angle, this.”
But that doesn’t mean you can’t stand still, and Gangnam Fire Fist has been working hard since then.
After that, I had to go to Area 2, so I refrained from using skills with long cooldowns as much as possible.
Nevertheless, the three were able to reach the junction faster than the other teams.
* * *
The next day, those who finished clearing up to Area 3 were taking a break while also explaining the changes from Area 4 to Hoya.
“From Area 4, the vampires gain intelligence. Even if they face each other like up to Area 3, it’s rare to run into them blindly.”
“How different is it?”
“First of all, I have the intelligence of a child, and I feel like the higher the level, the higher the intelligence.”
Also, as intelligence increases, vampires that attack only from the rear without wielding their nails appear, and it is said that the appearance of those vampires is closer to a human being.
“It’s hard for the monsters to get stronger the more you clear them, but it’s even more troublesome because they also have intelligence, really.”
“You’re not going to give up, are you?”
“Of course we can’t give up! How much time and money we’ve spent here! Well, we’re getting more experience points than other monsters, but… Oh, that’s right! Take this, Hoya-sama.”
What Luna took out of her inventory and gave to Hoya was the dew of truth.
“Why is this?”
“If you make eye contact with the new vampires that appear from the 4th area, you’ll get a revenge condition. Since you can’t hunt without looking into your eyes, you’re hunting while drinking them.”
All status abnormalities, such as a decrease in all statuses, a shorter line of sight, and recognition of allies as enemies, all occur, she said.
To prevent that, the Royal Knights were constantly drinking the dew of truth whenever they challenged Area 4 or higher.
To do so, he had the market fluctuate slightly as he sought a large amount of dew of truth.
“I can’t even ask you to come to the rescue in a situation we ask for, so I prepared Hoya-sama’s share.”
“Oh, I’m fine. I don’t need it.”
“Still, you don’t know, so keep it.”
Since he could not continue to refuse, Hoya received the dew of truth from Luna and kept it in his inventory.
However, he didn’t need it, so he thought of returning it after clearing all areas.
And he hoped Hoya had a way to reduce the consumption of the Dew of Truth.
“Badu, it’s dangerous, so let’s rest for a while?”
“Kooong!”
[Status: He is telling me not to worry. She thinks she shouldn’t eat the potion the woman gave her master. If we take one step further, it seems that great growth is possible. Growth is still low, so it is not showing most of its original strength.]Badu is right, but that doesn’t mean he can’t feed Badu the dew of truth all the way through the dungeon.
There was only one level left until Badu reached level 50, so Hoya was also full of regrets.
In Badu’s condition, the sentence ‘just take a few more steps’ was decreasing one by one as it approached 50.
When I realized that the vampires in the underground tunnels gave me a lot of experience, I summoned Badu to borrow power and share the experience with it, which is really unfortunate.
“It’s not okay.”
“Keeping……”
“It’s no use though.”
As Hoya spoke firmly, Badu erased his pitiful expression and kicked his nose.
Again, as Hoya expected, Badu was acting.
It has to be said that as the level goes up, Badu gets smarter, but it seems like he’s getting smarter.
“Do you have any more questions?”
“No, no.”
“Then I will tell the guild members and leave.”
Hoya got up and followed the Royal Knights into the dungeon again.
[Enter the dungeon ‘Underground Tunnel – Area 4’.]The 4th area was not dispersed like the 3rd area, but the 16 men were divided into front and rear, and moved at the same time.Today, this challenge is the last challenge, and from tomorrow onwards, the goal is to clear one area a day.
I didn’t know how many zones it would end.
“stop.”
At Bane’s words, everyone stopped and grabbed their weapons.
In the distance in the passageway, the imprints of vampires shining red eyes could be seen.
As Luna had said in advance, the vampires who rushed to them as soon as they found them did not rush to them, but were watching them silently.
And Hoya’s eyes met the vampire with an unbent back.
[The vampire’s curse begins to bind you.][The state is ‘fear’.][Resisted due to the effect of the title ‘Resident of the End of the Land’.][The vampire’s curse begins to bind you.][The state is ‘confused’.][Resisted due to the effect of the title ‘Resident of the End of the Land’.]⋮
Hoya looked at the generated message and stuck his tongue out inwardly.
In the moment of eye contact, there were three status abnormalities. There was a reason the Royal Knights poured money into the dew of truth.
“Lord, I give you!”
As the vampire, who met Hoya’s eyes, spoke in a slurred voice, the bats that had formed from behind him flew towards the players at high speed, followed by other vampires.
“Burn Flare!”
As Luna said that, dictations of a reddish-yellow light that could be felt even from afar appeared in the center of the flying bats, and immediately caused a huge explosion.
Quang-!
Due to the explosion, all the flying bats disappeared, and the vampires following them were obstructed by a cloud of dust and had no choice but to stop. They tried to remove the dust cloud by waving their hands, but before the dust cloud was removed, the players’ ranged attacks such as magic and arrows reached the vampires.
“Kyaaaak-!”
“Keeeeeeek!”
While the vampires panicked, this time the players in charge of the vanguard broke through the dust cloud and attacked the vampires.
“Fire Fist!”
“Gangnam! It’s still early days, so save your skills!”
“Yes!”
Spoon-, bang-! kagak.
While the Royal Knights were dealing with the vampire that came forward, Hoya passed them and turned to the vampire that caused the status ailment.
Vampires walking over a condition that had encountered several vampires at a time were the first to be treated.
The vampires who remained to escort him came swinging their claws at Hoya. However, Hoya avoided the vampires’ attacks by a single sheet of paper and swung his sword at the vampire behind him.
