Reading Webnovels Makes Me Stronger

Chapter 185

The dexterity ability has increased significantly.

Park Si-jun looked at the message window in front of him and was immersed in his thoughts.

‘Is there such a description?’

there was When people ate and admired the food, did the level of the cooking skill rise?

Instead, he seemed to have improved his dexterity.

‘Even so, I can’t upgrade the characteristics.’

Anyway, it wasn’t bad. Because there is a way to improve dexterity other than simply cooking.

Park Si-joon glanced at the status window.

Park Si-joon’s eyes widened when he saw his dexterity. It seemed that his dexterity skills had risen quite a bit.

People go up to this level because they’re impressed?

‘No, maybe… … ‘

Park Si-Jun’s culinary characteristics are graded B.

Compared to that, his dexterity was still very low.

Maybe he went up a lot because of some sort of correction.

“Ummm…”

“Yum, yum, umm?”

Ishimi was eating soup next to Park Si-joon, who was worried. I was eating meat rather than broth, but it was like looking at a carnivore.

“You can brush your teeth later.”

“?”

Ishimi tilted her head.

* * *

After the meal, the atmosphere of the subjugation team brightened.

It was thanks to the dissipation of the cold that had tormented them throughout the expedition. As before, even when a sharp wind blew, it was a little chilly, but not so cold that it made me numb.

“What the hell is that person doing?”

Instead, the gaze towards Park Si-jun increased.

Everyone who saw the effect of the food looked at him in disbelief. This is because it was a skill with an effect that had never appeared before.

“Okay then, get everything ready!”

“I will slowly enter the forest!”

Erica blocked that gaze. As soon as the preparations for the subjugation party were finished, she entered the forest.

Erica looked at Park Si-jun and squinted her eyes.

‘I don’t know what’s going on, but anyway, it’s true that this expedition helped a lot.’

But what will happen when the expedition is over?

Surely, rumors about this will spread through the player community.

Then what will happen?

‘No, maybe… … ‘

Maybe that’s what he was aiming for.

As Erica thought so, she entered the forest.

* * *

The forest was still quiet.

Those who were walking ahead as a reconnaissance team informed the rear that there were no monsters in the forest.

“There are no monsters in this forest.”

“It’s rare. Boss monsters sometimes don’t like other monsters in their area. Then they’re all kicked out.”

Monsters also had an ecosystem.

“Is that the way the corpses of these beasts exist?”

A player touched a nearby corpse with his foot. Seeing this, Park Si-joon’s heart fluttered.

‘Do not touch! Don’t take it!’

It explodes when it explodes.

Fortunately, the player quickly lost interest.

‘Whoa.’

The subjugation team advanced quickly through the forest.

The forest was so wide and long that it took quite a while to get through.

“It will probably take 30 minutes.”

Soyeon said it would take that long.

Park Si-joon looked ahead and walked. Still, his senses were directed backwards.

‘The villains have entered the forest.’

Before I came here, I was concerned about their presence. I felt the villains watching from a distance follow me into the forest.

‘How will they come out?’

Park Si-jun fiddled with the button he got from Mizuki. If only I knew how to activate this.

It would have been a lot easier if I could have known even the movements of the enemies at the very least.

– Pick it up.

Then, Ishimi, who was on her shoulder, handed something to her. She looked to see what it was, and she was some kind of crystal ball.

But the crystal ball reflected the image of the forest. It was also the appearance of villains who had just entered the forest.

“…where did you get this from?”

-thud? Whoops, whoops, whoops… …

Ishimi suddenly started to spit on her.

I don’t remember giving her such an item. So she said this guy took care of it.

“You got it from the villains a while ago, you.”

– Kwak, Kwaang… … .

Ishimi suddenly started to spit on her. It was so annoying that it made me feel uncomfortable.

“You’re a dragon, too…”

Has she already started showing interest in shiny things? Park Si-jun sighed.

“Why are you doing this? Anything.”

“No, nothing.”

Soyeon asked cautiously. Park Si-jun shook his head and quietly stepped back.

‘Now in this area… There are no traps.’

It’s been a while since I passed the poisoned corpse.

A trap was triggered when the button was pressed a while ago. First of all, there are no traps around here and it’s safe, so it’s a good opportunity to try the button.

click.

Park Si-joon pressed the button. OK.

“……uh.”

Beyond the crystal orb, something unexpected happened.

* * *

A group of people were walking through a dark forest.

They were the villains who followed Park Si-joon until now.

“Have you not heard from Mizuki yet?”

“Yeah, from Ian…”

Seok-kyung, the man leading the villains, frowned. I’m sure we got in touch yesterday.

“Something must have happened.”

“But… there are no monsters in this area. As long as you enter the forest, you will not lose contact.”

“No. It shouldn’t. The problem is that it happened now.”

Seok-kyung sighed and looked around.

I saw the traps Mizuki had set up.

He was well hidden and difficult to find, but he was able to find it because he had seen it many times.

“When you see the trap installed, it means that you have entered the forest. What the hell happened?”

“Isn’t it a communication disturbance?”

“… it could be.”

This forest has so much magical power.

Communication is done using magic power, and since it is still unstable, the communication distance is not very long.

Considering that, it can be assumed that something is wrong with the communication because of this magical power.

“Let’s go to where they are.”

“Yes.”

The original plan went awry. The subjugation team was planning to target when they were fighting a boss monster.

Seok-kyung led his men to the point where Mizuki would be.

“There are a lot of traps here.”

Where he is now, there are many unique traps.

Poison gas installed on the body, arrows and spear blades installed everywhere, and even magic traps.

‘I installed a lot more than I thought. In that case, it would be okay to just aim for the time when they come back.’

The moment Seokkyung moved with that thought.

shudder!

The sound of the device working was heard.

Before Seok-kyung could respond to that sound.

Aww!

“Woah ah ah ah ah!”

A huge lightning bolt struck one of the villains. It was a lightning strike that paralyzed the whole body in one shot and burned it.

But that wasn’t the end.

“Hey, crazy! Crazy!”

Traps started flying from all directions.

“Aaaaaah!”

The villain’s arm was pierced by the spear, and poisoned arrows were pierced in the throats of others. And someone was engulfed in the flames and burned all over.

Whoops!

Memorabilia flying from the floor, flames approaching, swallowing the air. Literally all sorts of traps.

It was familiar to Seok-kyung.

“Magic Trap…”

“Mi, these are the ones Mizuki installed! Aww!”

“Why is this targeting us!”

“I do not know!”

Seok-kyung cried out in shock. A trap set by an ally is aiming at you.

“Huh…!”

A storm swept through.

All that’s left are the villains with major and minor injuries. Some of them even lost their lives.

“Did Mizuki betray us?!”

There was no one to respond to Seok-kyung’s words. His spine cooled. If that’s true.

‘If you make a mistake, everyone will die.’

It was like a sage here.

* * *

The trap has been triggered.

It was seen that the villains beyond the crystal ball were swept away by the trap and destroyed.

What if they were there?

“It’s creepy.”

Suddenly, my spine shivered.

Considering that such a trap had been set up, Mizuki would not have been an ordinary person.

He felt lucky to have killed him by surprise.

‘What’s the alternative principle?’

Park Si-jun looked at the button on his hand.

It was an ordinary item with no special explanation in the item description.

‘Tap to trigger a trap.’

Pressing once more will not trigger the trap. It seems to have an ON/OFF function.

“Um, uh…”

No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t figure it out. Anyway, what you can tell is that if you leave this on, the trap will automatically activate.

Thanks to this, the villains took a lot of damage, and they were recovering their wounds in a place where there were no traps.

“I wouldn’t be able to go out if I took this much damage.”

– Kyaang!

Park Si-joon returned Su-jeong-gu to Ishi-mi. While the guy was in awe, he accepted the crystal ball.

‘Since many of the people in the party are dead or injured, even if they go out, it won’t be a big threat.’

If it appears while catching a water change, it should be dealt with. Of course, it would be best to deal with it now, but I couldn’t afford it.

“We have arrived. That’s the realm of redemption.”

You have arrived at the habitat of the boss monster.

The end of the forest was visible. All the subjugation squad held their breath and peered over the forest.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“That’s…”

What you see is an endless snowfield.

There were monsters that looked like ice spirits everywhere.

And in the midst of them.

“It’s Chaos!”

A huge haunted man stood alone.

His mysteriously shining eyes turned to the subjugation team.

Hwansu growled lowly.

It had large, sharp horns on its forehead, and two shiny wings on its back.

On the surface, it looked like a sacred animal.

-Koooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

He was a man with strong hostility towards humans.

Hwansu, Kaios spread its wings and roared for a long time. Kuroo! The ground rumbled with the sound of dark clouds.

The players’ bodies staggered at the roar.

“Forward! Set up the shelves!”

The players quickly formed their formation. Warrior-type players stood at the forefront and blocked the enemies.

And standing behind them are archers, wizards, and priests.

People’s movements were quick and concise.

‘Is it worthwhile to put together the sum for a few days?’

It was thanks to the constant hunting of monsters. The warriors stared at the monsters coming from the front.

“Ice Elemental! Cold resistance, so it’s not a difficult opponent! Fire magic! Wipe it all out!”

The problem is that there are a lot of numbers. The warriors protected the wizards while cutting off the approaching monsters.

“Don’t worry about getting hurt! The priest will heal you!”

“Enemy in the air! Archer, shoot!”

Ice Elemental wasn’t the only enemy that came rushing in. Birds that looked like they were made of ice have also attacked.

The priests healed the wounds of the warriors, and the archers intercepted the enemies in the air with various brilliant skills.

And finally.

Whoops!

Fire magic swept the enemies. All kinds of fire magic literally melted the monsters.

There weren’t many wizards in the subjugation team, and there wasn’t much magic. But the firepower was enough.

Kaios, who watched it silently, flapped his wings. Its gigantic body flew into the air.

It was unbelievably fast.

– Kiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

The light at the tip of the flashing wings was young. As it flapped its wings, lightning turned into lightning and struck the ground.

Seeing this, Erica ordered the guild member to spread the shield. A shield that casts in the sky in an instant. And lightning strikes violently upon him.

Every time Kaios flapped his wings, lightning struck. The shield swayed as if it were about to break.

“Bur, can you stand it?”

The players who were fighting monsters on the ground looked up at the sky worriedly. If that shield is broken, lightning will strike the subjugation team as it is.

“We must attack Chaos! Break the stance!”

Erica exclaimed urgently. Park Si-jun, who was watching it from behind, clenched his sword.

‘Let’s try it.’

The time has come to move.
