EP.18 Academy Underground Dungeon (3)

The professor who taught the <History and Basics of Holder> class said so.

“There are many different ways holders make money in the modern world.”

The first is to catch the monster itself.

If you catch monsters outside the barrier or occasionally appear within the barrier, you can earn money with a reward set by the government and the ‘Magic Stone’ embedded in the monster’s body.

This is the most common income for holders, and it is perhaps a natural return because it is the decisive moment for modern society to need holders.

“Secondly… taking orders from the general public. In other words, they do what only the holder can do.”

It’s a job that requires too much muscle power…

Things that ordinary people cannot handle.

If the holder takes care of that, it will be easier to handle.

However, there is not a lot of demand for this, and holders of F-grade level hardly take on it.

Besides, except for professions such as academy professorships, they didn’t get much preference because they didn’t earn much.

“The last one is what you were thinking. It can be viewed as a dungeon attack.”

Dungeon.

A special space where countless monsters are hidden.

There are various rewards hidden here as there is a danger of monsters, and this is often a reward that is difficult to achieve through training or general growth.

In particular, if you attack the dungeon for the first time, you can achieve special growth, so it was the ‘undiscovered dungeon’ that holders always turned on and looked for.

“But, to say the least, the flower of dungeon attack is the boss room.”

The last and highlight of the dungeon is the ‘Boss Room’.

The boss room has different difficulty and rewards for each dungeon, and if you are lucky, you can even get a huge jackpot when you succeed.

The only S-class holder among Korean assassins.

There are rumors that Yoo Eun-seol has also grown into a boss room.

After breaking the boss room of <River of Dragon’s Breath>, which is called the best dungeon, the story of her rapidly growing up to S-class was circulating in the holder world.

It is difficult to confirm the exact facts, but when it is not, the smoke does not come out of the chimney.

The value of the boss room in the dungeon was outstanding.

Dungeon.

It’s for the rune holder.

It is a sweet land flowing with milk and honey.

And among them, a more special undiscovered dungeon.

The entrance to the Academy Underground Dungeon.

We had been walking for about 10 minutes from the entrance.

And there was still no sign.

It seems that the place where the monster appears is a little further away.

“Then Jaehyun Do, are you visiting the dungeon for the first time?”

“yes. It’s only been two months since I first became a holder.”

“Wow. really? Were you also very talented?”

It was me and Moon Ga-eun who talked mainly in boredom.

Kang Joo-yeon was the quiet type, so she was quiet.

Seeing them glance at us from time to time, it seems like they want to be part of a conversation… If you don’t speak, can you tell?

“It’s embarrassing to hear such words in front of two really talented people.”

“a. It’s been a while since me and Jooyeon became holders though. half a year? And there’s also genetics. Right, Joo-yeon?”

nod-

To the question that flew to me in an instant.

Kang Joo-yeon quietly nodded her head.

When you see things like that, Gaeun Moon is great too.

Even though he knew that a hard reaction and short answer would come, he continued to talk to Kang Joo-yeon like that.

That’s why we’ve been best friends since childhood… .

“And Jaehyun Do, aren’t you a D-class? I think it’s the first time I’ve heard of a holder saying that I got from F-Class to D-Class in two months.”

“It’s not F-class. It was almost the end of the E-class.”

The holder’s grade is determined by the association’s accreditation.

The instruments used to measure abilities when entering the academy.

The holder association also uses him to measure the holder’s ability, and measures the rune’s utility and level through practical tests.

In addition, it measures the performance of monster hunting and dungeon capture.

I was not a regular D-class holder, who had never once caught a monster or attacked a dungeon alone.

Only the strength of the power is D-level.

“uh? Wait a minute.”

While we were walking while chatting.

Ga-eun Moon raised her hand for a moment and stopped us.

Her ash blue-toned hair fluttered in the sudden stop.

She quickly sat down and put her hands on the ground.

[Dolphin’s Sound Wave] that can maximize the senses related to sound and vibration, such as hearing and vibration.

It looked like he was using it.

Archers often take on the role of rangers when attacking dungeons, and support shooting from the rear when battles occur.

The rune usually used by archers is [Sharp Sense].

However, Moon Ga-eun has a special rare rune called [Dolphin’s Sound Wave] as a high-level elite, and it was only natural that these runes performed better than general archer-type runes.

“come. About 100m?”

With Moon Ga-eun’s words.

Thump-thump- and the dungeon rings.

Some monsters appeared from afar.

A monster with a body covered in scales and a trident as a weapon.

He walks on two legs, and his form is flawless, but his face and body are lizards…

It was a C-class monster, a Lizardman.

– aah!!

-Kaak, Kaa-!!

At first glance, only the number of Lizardmen is four.

It is greed for me, who is a D-level, to face four Lizardmen alone.

No matter how fast my growth rate is, at the same time, it is almost impossible to face a C-class net opponent.

But behind me were Kang Joo-yeon and Moon Ga-eun.

Until the two of them strike, I just have to buy time.

“I’ll go first!”

With those words, he ran straight ahead.

Before the Lizardmen reached here.

I had to take the lead first.

‘Before writing the sword… !!’

Before I pull out the bare sword behind my back.

First, I took out the four throwing daggers from the waistband.

[Dagger] Use of runes.

As a B-class monster, the Sizzling Salamander had high durability, and there was even a rare rune called [Lizard’s Scale], so the use of a dagger was meaningless.

Even if I use the sword right now, I can barely scratch it.

However, the C-class monster, Lizardman, is different.

Lizardmen are monsters with strength in their strength and relatively weak durability, so they can inflict damage.

The [Dagger] raised to level 4 will definitely have an effect.

“Suck… !!”

All four daggers were thrown at one lizardman.

A derivative skill of [Dagger], [Quarter Knife]… !

A trick-type skill that intensifies attacks by throwing four daggers and using only one of them with magical power.

Just as expected.

The lizardman who met my dagger reacted in bewilderment.

The first dagger that flew in was struck with a trident.

With the next action, the second dagger was struck.

However, there are limits to simultaneous reactions.

Read at readwn.com

Just two.

There were two daggers that could react with the speed of Lizardman.

– aah!!

The remaining two daggers were stuck in the Lizardman’s body.

one on the ankle.

one on the nape of the neck.

And [Quarter Knife].

Of the four daggers, one dagger with magical powers.

It was a dagger stuck in the nape of the guy’s neck.

“It’s the lucky seven, you bastard.”

f*ck.

this is the map

No, not a commendation, but anyway.

The Lizardman was hit by a dagger full of magical energy at the vital point and became incapable of combat.

I don’t know if it’s completely dead.

Even so, this is a very effective surprise attack.

I pulled out the sword behind my back and held it.

There was no time to rejoice over the surprise success.

– aah!!

– Kaak, Kaa!!

Was he angry when he saw what happened to his people?

Three lizardmen rushed at me at high speed.

I hold the sword with both hands.

I let out the trident that they stabbed in.

The Mystery of [The Flowing Swordsman Method].

Even if several weapons were to come at the same time, if only the central point of the attack could be grasped, they could flow away.

Chaeng- Chae-jaeng-

The lizardmen’s trident and my sword interlocked.

It clashed and made a sharp sound several times, but the trident still hadn’t reached my body.

I am in between.

constantly looking for gaps.

“Haap… !!”

[Strike] that counters the attack while letting it flow.

The trick of the [Wave Swordsmanship] that stabs a lizardman with a gap.

Probably because of the difference in grades, it didn’t show the power of the [Quarter Knife] level, which was poured out with all the power in the early surprise, but it certainly seemed to be hitting, and it made big and small scratches.

‘not good.’

But even in this battle, there are limits.

I felt a little force on my wrist and skin.

It was a matter of my inexperienced use of runes and abilities.

I’m just starting to learn the swordsmanship of the professors, and the rune level is only at level 1 or 2.

There is not enough to cover my low ability.

Lizardman’s trident, constantly raging.

and their indiscriminate attacks.

In order to receive this, you need to have an outstanding aspect of either stats or runes.

However, this was the limit with his D-level ability.

“Ugh… .”

Reflexively, a voice of pain rang out.

The sword, which had been gently attacking, was getting stronger and stronger…

The lizardmen’s trident begins to get heavy.

– aah!!

To make matters worse.

in front of us in battle.

Another group of Lizardmen could be heard.

oh

f*cked up… .

Come to think of it, this was a dungeon.

There were only four of them in the first group, and many Lizardmen could exist in the dungeon.

And the guys in the front are the Lizardmen who come after them.

‘I think I’m really going to die.’

Even three lizardmen are daunting, but if you ask me to fight more numbers here, I will really die.

I was reaching the limits of my limits.

and by then

I heard Moon Ga-eun’s voice who saved me.

“Do Jaehyun, step back!”

A signal that both support magic and shooting are ready.

At the same time, I quickly escaped from the Lizardmen.

The speed at which even a person who had just been fighting could not believe.

Even the Lizardmen feel embarrassed.

The high speed also plays a part in this, but [Sprint] also helps a lot.

The [Sprint] rune is a rune that not only moves and runs, but also supports instantaneous movement and agility.

Of course, there was also an effect on the escape from the battle.

Bang- Kwaga River-!!

Shhh-

And as soon as you get out of battle.

A baptism of arrows flew in with a great roar.

[Light Meteor] and [Triple Power Shot].

Quite effective when dealing with multiple enemies…

Their main wide-area skill.

The three Lizardmen who fought with me.

And the five Lizardmen who came after.

They don’t even have time to react.

Kang Joo-yeon and Moon Ga-eun’s bombardment changed their names.

– Kah, Kah… .

The battle was just over.

“… … .”

I stared blankly at the scene.

After seeing such an overwhelming attack.

Rather, the body and mind become reverent.

this is that…

Is the sheep hunting or something… ?
