186 – In order to qualify – 4

The strategy for the second and third ghosts was not much different from the first one.

Of course, if you go into details, there will be differences, but the important thing is that we defeated them without any problems.

“Huh… That’s great.”

“It is so strong that it cannot be compared to Manisan.”

It’s rude compared to those beginner ruins. Anyway, since all the ghosts have been captured, the only thing left is Akho. After defeating the third ghost and checking the items obtained, Yeon Ji-ho frowned and grumbled.

“Only japtem came out.”

“There is only Ectoplasm.”

Ectoplasm is one of the representative japtems that can be obtained when catching ghost-type monsters.

Even when I caught the first and second ghosts, only ectoplasm came out, but even the third ghost only came out with ectoplasm.

“Well. I didn’t come here to get artifacts, but I only came out like this. It’s a deficit. It’s a deficit.”

Of course, the reason we came to the ruins is to raise the grade, but isn’t it true to get only japtem?

“Hey. Are there any buffs that increase luck?”

“Is there anything like that?”

If there were, I would have put everything aside and learned from that. Even if you meet Azazel and change your aptitude to Enhance, you cannot learn such a buff.

Cheon Soo-ho sat on the floor sullenly, and Serenia held up the rosary while smiling at him.

“I recommend the rosary to you!”

Are you going to go to the prayer meter?

Since I have to take a day off here and catch Akho, the owner of the ruins, I don’t think it’s bad to pray for the rest of the time.

Elizabeth, who had been watching Yeon Ji-ho, Ji-ah-young, and even Cheon Su-ho pray fervently, approached me with her wry smile.

“How should I catch bad names?”

“He? Um…”

Akho’s attack is divided into 4 phases. Its basic attack is similar to that of a normal Beast type monster, but in Phase 1, the first ghost clings to Akho’s side. As the first ghost used, it is a good idea to use a sungrass capsule because you use a skill that charms the opponent.

“Are phases 2 and 3 the same?”

“Yes. During the 2nd phase, it shows the power to block skills like the second ghost. It’s okay if the attack itself is the same as when dealing with the second ghost.”

It blocks skills, not normal attacks. So stop using normal attacks after being strengthened by buffs. There shouldn’t be a big problem as long as you continue the attack with Yuchoa at the center.

For Phase 3, you can attack in the same way as when you caught the third ghost. In phase 3, the third ghost next to the tiger calls his name, and the one whose name is called cannot move on the spot if he fails to resist. And when you focus on attacking the person whose name is called, you can fight while protecting that person.

“Then what about Phase 4?”

“In Phase 4, Akho fights alone without ghosts. It will be the easiest to deal with.”

“I see… There’s no particular danger, right?”

“Yeah. And it’s okay to use this.”

“What is this?”

“Chain chinensis extract. It’s concentrated, so if you use this, Akho will stop moving for a while. I’ll use it at the right time, so when I signal, attack.”

“Wow. Then, can’t we just use it from the beginning?”

“It doesn’t always work.”

In the game, if you use it five times, your immunity will rise. I brought about ten just in case, but I don’t think it’s hard to expect more than that.

“Okay. Then no problem.”

“Then let’s eat.”

After briefly explaining the operation, I took out the things I had brought with me.

It was simple cooking utensils and cut ingredients.

“What?”

“Curry.”

“Hey!”

There is nothing better than curry for a simple meal. While the three of them, who like my cooking, were delighted, Yeon Ji-ho, who had finished praying, approached me.

“Wouldn’t it be better to just fill up with energy? You must be tired too.”

“Because I didn’t do anything.”

“No, it’s fine if you give good buffs and good instructions… Why didn’t you do anything?”

“Physically.”

I do have mental fatigue, but that much gets better soon after a little rest. I wondered if it would be better to feed delicious food to people who are physically tired unlike me. Of course, energy bars aren’t bad, but eating right is important for boosting morale.

“I think about it often. John always tends to underestimate himself.”

“Yes. You always have more than one serving.”

“That’s right. That’s right. Thanks to that, we can fight with peace of mind. The buff alone is certain.”

“Ha ha ha. Thank you for thinking so.”

It gives me strength because I am showing a warm image in my own way. That’s why I prepared a meal with a smile, and by the time Serenia’s prayer was over, I was able to finish the curry.

“Let’s eat.”

“I’ll eat well!”

It was a simple meal of just curry and rice, but everyone ate without muttering, perhaps because they liked being able to eat properly at the ruins. After the meal was over, we checked the time and immediately lay down in the prepared seats.

“Is the raid on the ruins over tomorrow?”

“That’s right. As soon as this is over, I have to apply for clearing the black dungeon… There won’t be any time to rest.”

“Huh?! Then we can’t even have an after party?”

“That’s enough… But aren’t seniors Yeon Ji-ho and Ji Ah-young challenging the black dungeon?”

“Uh. We’ve done it once before.”

“Why don’t you try again?”

“Well… Shouldn’t we give other people a chance?”

“There are still many black dungeons.”

Black dungeons exist not only in Korea but also in other countries. And I hope they all clear the black dungeon.

As such, after we succeed in targeting this time, we will announce the strategy and then take on the next challenge. Yeon Ji-ho, who said that, smiled leisurely.

“I think it’s possible for you guys.”

“So. Wow. When we were just you guys, even B class was difficult. They said that this jockey was really great…”

Ji Ah-yeong stroked Jin Si-yeon’s hair with her eyes sparkling. It was so awkward that she giggled at Jin Si-yeon, who closed her eyes and sighed in envy.

“Whew. The back wave of the Yangtze River pushes the front wave… But Siyeon-ah.”

“…Why?”

“You should be the first to get to the S rank… You’re not supposed to get married before this sister, right?”

“……”

Jin Shi-yeon didn’t answer, and Ji-ah-yeong, who was desperately trying to say something to her, sighed deeply and closed her eyes.

Let’s stop sleeping now too.

After a day of rest, everyone seems to be in good shape. Ji Ah-young looks a little depressed, but she’ll be fine.

We lightly relaxed and headed straight for the center.

Until now, in the central vacant lot that I had reached through the alleyway, things I hadn’t seen before were roaming about.

A house-sized tiger with black fur. It was a bad sign.

“Is everyone ready?”

Red light began to flow from the tiger’s eyes as if it had noticed that we were coming. He saw the tiger smirking when he summoned his first ghost and placed it next to him.

Are you saying come?

Then you should go.

– Curry!!

Thanks to the fact that the strategy was well known in advance, I was able to safely go through the 3rd phase. As the ghost attached to Akho’s chin collapsed and disappeared, Akho’s eyes grew stronger.

Coming!

In that case!!

“Front chinensis tree extract!!”

I put my hand in my pocket and threw the extract with all my might. Was it because of the smell of the liquid that flew through the air and exploded in front of Akho? Akho’s lifelike eyes begin to fade.

-Keuhuhhh…!

Then he rolls on the floor, staggering as if he is drunk. Now!!

“Attack!!”

I immediately buffed everyone. And for Choa Yoo and Siyeon Jin, who needed direct hits, they applied appropriate buffs to each.

“Haaap!”

“Suck!!”

As the two continued their attacks, Akho, who was drunk with the extract of the dandelion tree, let out a scream of pain and rolled over. I came back to my senses and tried to attack, but the ax was thrown again.

After doing that four more times, Akho stopped responding to the extract.

But there were no problems.

Because he was already in tatters.

“Finish!!”

Elizabeth ran for the final blow. The moment her tiger, who was looking at her with her fear-stricken eyes, was about to make her last desperate attempt.

“You bastard!!”

Cheon Soo-ho’s shield push, which approached before he knew it, blocked Ak-ho’s movement. A golden energy that shone when you stumbled over it and exposed your chest.

-Keuhuhhh…!!

The owner of the ruins, the evil spirit, resounded and began to crumble.

Ugh. It’s over.

“Is there anything good this time?!”

Still, I’m the owner of the ruins, so I’d like you to drop a few artifacts!

Everyone headed to the spot where Akho’s corpse disappeared with tired expressions.

“Oh… Oh.”

It is said that when a tiger dies, it leaves its skin behind. In its place was Akho’s skin. This is also a japtem, but that goes beyond.

Holding the leather and slowly lifting it up, Cheon Soo-ho laughed happily.

“Yah-ho!”

One of the things under the big hide is a shield. It was a large shield with the face of a tiger engraved on it.

[Hogol Shield.]

[A shield containing the power of a tiger. When you wear this shield, the power of the tiger rises.]

[Increase strength by 2]

[Increase HP by 2]

[Increase Agility by 2]

[Skill: Revetment Available]

It is said that when a tiger, the king of the mountains, stares at it, quite a few beasts roll up their tails and become stiff. Similarly, when used, Hoan makes the enemies of the Beast series fearful for a certain period of time, and then makes them attack themselves.

The increase in stats is good, and it’s also a pretty good skill for tankers, so all level-level tanks used to use this hogol shield.

“Oh. Here’s a good one.”

“Senior…”

“Ah. I don’t need it. My shield is as good as the Bone Shield.”

Chun Soo-ho’s expression gets brighter. When the others conceded, he happily grabbed his shield.

“But why is there a picture of a tiger on the shield?”

“Because it’s cool!!”

George bastard. I really like it.

Aside from that, useful relics came out. Like the leopard armor, or the black tiger claw bracelet.

This is not a loss!
