Chapter 128

46. ​​Mad Monster (1)

At the beginning of this year, that is, after entering 2027, there was finally a break in the high-risk dungeon.

And just like the low-risk and medium-risk dungeons, the high-risk dungeons were also integrated with other nearby dungeons.

Jeju Island or Hawaii, where several high-risk dungeons were merged at once, was an extremely unusual case, and that did not happen anywhere else. Instead, the entrances did not unite but remained several.

However, contrary to the initial concern, the break in the high-risk dungeon did not turn into a bigger problem ‘than I thought’.

First, the number of new monsters located in the dungeon instead of the old monsters was small.

As a result, the number of dungeon entrances increased, so the hunters had to be dispersed, but the number of monsters to be dealt with decreased thanks to the reduced burden.



Second, the new monster was surprisingly quiet.

It was true that they could come out of the dungeon, but that didn’t mean they couldn’t come out. It seems like he doesn’t have any major complaints about living in the dungeon, so he didn’t actively crawl to Earth.

The stronger the monster, the stronger the tendency. I don’t know if it’s because dungeons merge and they can bully (?) weaker monsters than themselves.

Thanks to this, as initially feared, ‘monsters pouring out in hordes from dozens of entrances’ did not happen.

– Obviously it was.

“what’s this… … !”

Cha Eun-seol clenched his teeth.

The view from the roof of the building.

The messy city center she had only seen in movies caught her eye.

the screams of citizens. Smoke billowing from everywhere. Continuous sound of gunfire and explosions.

And there are still hundreds of thousands of flocks of birds that have covered the sky in black… … .

After arriving here, more than 200 have been shot and dropped, but the number doesn’t seem to have decreased. The rate of decrease was too slow as if it was constantly being replenished.

Of course, they are not birds.

Those guys were the ‘Rainbow Repairs’ that appeared in the Bucheon dungeon before the integration.

It was a familiar monster to Cha Eun-seol. That large colorful eagle was the first high-risk monster she had ever faced. It was at Bucheon Dungeon where Cha Shin Hyeon taught light engineering and archery, so she met her several times at that time.

However, even though the monster was familiar, the place was not at all familiar.

Fighting in the city center rather than in a dungeon was more tiring than I imagined. Citizens were also concerned, and they had to be concerned about the destruction of buildings.

“Whoops!”

Cha Eun-seol, who had been breathing for a while to make up for her excessive consumption of energy, put her energy back in. After her dexterity had recovered to some extent, she put an arrow back on the bow.



Nettle juice!

The arrow flew through the wind towards the targeted monster.

hey hey!

The rainbow eagle, which had been pierced through the neck, fell to the ground with a torn air.

When their people died, the rainbow eagles nearby became angry. They found the epicenter of the attack and soon found Cha Eun-seol.

Five monsters quickly descended towards the roof of the building. One of them is a large breed. It was a mutant giant monster that didn’t know why.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Three arrows were fired in succession with little time lag. Arrows were lodged in the foreheads of the three monsters without any time to dodge or sleep.

But they are new monsters. It doesn’t go away even if you die. The corpse of the monster fell to the roof, obscuring the view, without much difference from the speed at which it was flying.

Baba Baba Bak!

Then came a terrible storm. A large rainbow eagle launched its magical powers.

Even the bodies of their dead people were smashed to pieces without hesitation, and the blades of the wind swept over the roof. Cha Eun-seol hurriedly unfolded her light work.Whoa, whoa, whoa!

While the floor on which he had been standing a while ago was crumbling, Cha Eun-seol, who had safely evacuated to the roof of the next building, jumped right away.

She rushed straight towards her rainbow repair, changing direction as quickly as small. She trampled the body of her bewildered monster.

Kwajik!

Her vigorously step on her bastard, and at the same time the reaction force she jumped once more. She was still at the peak of her stature and could not use her air streak, but she blended the agility of an archer class with light dexterity, so her stunts were quite capable of this level.

Cha Eun-seol, who quickly grabbed the top of a large rainbow eagle, quickly pulled a protest.

Whoops!

Since the arrow was fired from a close range, the effect was clear. The arrow completely pierced the back of the monster.

The rainbow eagle fell down with a mournful scream. Seizing her chance, she flew her body to her side and landed on the roof of another building.

“haha… … .”

Taking a deep breath, Cha Eun-seol adjusted her breathing again.

She did a great job of killing five of them in a short time, but her expression wasn’t bright.

‘Too many!’

A sight reflected in the clairvoyance. Jun-ho Jeon was seen struggling about a kilometer from the sky.

The guild leader of Taegeuk, who oversees all of Korea’s hunters—actually, because of Cha Shin Hyeon and Lee Ji-hye, feels like a barge boss—is playing at the forefront.

As a high-ranking hunter who ranks among the top three on the hunter level, he had the skills to prepare for dogfights, but the veteran Junho Jeon was fighting while saving his MP as much as possible.

swish! Shh! Whoops!

He rides on a rainbow eagle, stabs him in the back, and then moves to another rainbow eagle again, showing off an acrobatic skill and moving in all directions.

The problem was that even though the two of them were doing so well, things didn’t get better.

‘At a time like this.’

Currently, there are a total of 10 high-ranking hunters in Korea.

They were divided into four groups.

Jeon Jun-ho, Cha Eun-seol, and Lee Ji-hye are the two high-ranking hunters who were raised in Incomprehensible 1st group. Two groups of four high-ranking hunters raised in North Korea by Cha Shin Hyeon.

Following Cha Shin Hyeon’s suggestion, these two groups were touring high-risk dungeons to raise their level and skills.

And Cha Shin Hyeon and Lee Ji-hye are each acting independently. After Lee Ji-hye ascended to the state of communism, she was acclimatizing to her infinite power by circling high-risk dungeons alone.

In other words, because each group was acting separately, there were not enough people to respond to this situation when monsters suddenly poured out of the Bucheon dungeon.

Group 2 was in the southern provinces, and Lee Ji-hye was walking through the dungeons in the Yeongdong region. Cha Shin Hyeon is in the most remote island of Jeju. Group 1 was the only group staying in the suburbs of Seoul.

Of course, four high-ranking hunters can easily attack the Bucheon dungeon.

However, the situation now was vastly different from when the dungeon was attacked.

It’s like dealing with the monsters in the dungeon at once, and since they’re attacking the entire city, it’s impossible to cover it with four people.

A nearby military unit was rushed to the scene and mobilized all nearby middle-ranking hunters, but they were also flying monsters, so there were only a limited number of people who could inflict damage.

‘If only I had an older brother… No, at least if there was even a deputy guild leader… … .’

The number of monsters had to be reduced quickly, but the firepower was insufficient. Due to the nature of the class, it was the limit of Jun-ho Jeon and Eun-seol Cha, who had no choice but to kill one at a time.

In less than 30 minutes, rushing from Seoul to here, the number of casualties alone would be more than 100. Fortunately, the hunters of Taegeuk calmly evacuated the citizens, so even if it was minimized, it was not a small number.

Cha Eun-seol’s heart grew more anxious.

He just shot in a hurry, which led to a waste of energy, but nevertheless, as he used it forcibly, the power outage was terrifying.

“Ah… … .”

In the end, an error occurred.

As she ran from building to building, shooting rainbow eagles one by one, her inner strength was cut off in an instant. As she nearly fell, she barely managed to balance.

Aiming at that time, the rainbow eagles fired their magical powers.

The blades of the wind blow from two directions, swallowing the surroundings. He couldn’t dodge it, and he couldn’t stop both of them.

In her moments of crisis she showed off her wit.

Whoops.

The mirage skill was activated and her body moved to the dimensional rift. The blade of the wind, which was of equal strength, passed by without cutting anything.

The problem was next.

Absolute evasion was definitely a great ability, but the downside of not being able to move while the skill was activated was huge. When the skill that eats excessive MP was released, the rainbow eagles were already rushing in front of them.

“ね.”

It was time for Cha Eun-seol to take an evasive action, ready to get her hurt.

“You have to be careful.”

Someone who appeared like a ghost wrapped around Cha Eun-seol’s shoulder.

Astonished by her, she reflexively resisted and raised her head, then froze.

“brother?”

There was no trace of the rainbow eagles when they died.

“Uh, when did you come?”

“just now.”

Cha Shin Hyeon answered with a tired expression.

In the meantime, his hand naturally touched Cha Eun-seol’s back. An endless, majestic energy rushes into her, replenishing her exhausted energy.

While feeling her refreshing energy, Cha Eun-seol asked, startled.

“Weren’t you on Jeju Island?”

“Yes it was. I got the call and came right away. Damn, I didn’t know I’d do something like this again.”

The other day, when dealing with twilight, there was a time when I repeatedly made a space leap hundreds of times from Jeju Island to Gangwon Province.

I thought it would never happen again, but this time I came from Jeju Island to Bucheon doing it.

It was a tiring repetitive task, running to the limit of nogada, whether possible or not. In front of his sister, he was showing less, but he was quite annoyed.

Cha Eun-seol was unaware of such circumstances, but in any case, in the current situation, there was no one more welcome than Cha Shin Hyeon. she said hastily

“Anyway, welcome, brother! As you can see, it’s a mess right now!”

“Yeah, it seems.”

He responded calmly and took his hand from his sister’s back.

When he stretched out his other hand in front of him, his magical power erupted and swayed. A cold magical energy froze the air.

blatantly-

Dozens of spears made of ice, about a meter long, arose.

“ice?”

“I am a little tired right now. It’s easier to deal with things that have a fixed form.”

High-purity energy is injected into the spear of ice. Ice has become a new material with strength and sharpness that surpasses that of steel.

Cha Shin Hyeon, who captured monsters throughout the city with a sense of transcendence, pulled the trigger.

Dozens of gear swords moving at the same time started.

Awesome sweetheart!As if watching a fireworks display, dozens of ice spears splendidly spread out in different directions.

It was a punishment that brought astonishment to the hunters who struggled hard, and disaster to the monsters that were targeted.

Whoops! Whoops! Whoops! Whoops! Whoops!

Dodging, trying to block, or resisting with magical powers, the result was the same.

The ice spear that had pierced the rainbow eagle’s body like a skewer flew off in search of the next prey, and similarly passed through a large wind hole in the next creature’s body.

On the battlefields across Bucheon, monsters died simultaneously.

The monsters that came out of the dungeon were wiped out in less than 3 minutes. For the Hunters, fighting hard was something of a shame.

Cha Shin Hyeon, who recovered his power, appeared in front of Junho. Jeon Jun-ho greeted them with a smile.

“After all, it was Cha Shin Hyeon! He guessed it when he saw the ridiculously strong magic.”

“I thought the damage was already great, so I rushed it a bit.”

“thank you. It’s a good thing that the damage has stopped here.”

“Can I ask you to take care of it? I’ll take a look inside the dungeon as well.”

“Yes, leave it to me.”

Cha Shin Hyeon entered the entrance, where monsters were still crawling out one by one.

30 minutes later.

Behind him, after tidying up the remnants of the dungeon, two rainbow eagles were floating around in captivity. There was one large and one small.

Cha Shin Hyeon, who told Cha Eun Seol to go in first, performed his magic. It was the space movement magic I learned earlier. To be precise, it was an application of space leap using absolute coordinates.

Pot!

Because the coordinates were searched before departure, the magic worked safely.

Across hundreds of kilometers of space, Cha Shin Hyeon and two accompanying monsters appeared in front of the foggy dungeon.

“How long have you been teaching? They use it very well.”

Elter, who appeared after reading the presence of magic, grumbled.

“But what about those beasts?”

“I have something to ask you.”

Cha Shin Hyeon got down to the ground and threw rainbow eagles towards the Elter.

Perhaps there was something like fear engraved in their instincts, and even though the restraints were released, they could not move in front of Elter.

“These guys are a little different from the monsters I knew.”

“Is it different?”

“Yeah, it’s strangely strong. Just like Cleric gave me a buff.”

“Hmm, that’s right.”

Elter, feeling a little intrigued, looked closely at the rainbow eagle.

A wrinkle was engraved on Baekryong’s forehead, which he had been observing for a while.

“This… … !”

“Do you know?”

“Were all the beasts of the dungeon like this? Or just this?”

“It’s all like that.”

“… I got into trouble.”

Elther drooled.

“It looks like the hand of the demons is already reaching out.”
