Episode 71: Limitless Mana Dungeon (1)
Spaang!
Inside the passage on the 7th underground floor, which was not very spacious, the ‘wind’ blown by Kang Dong-hyun engulfed all the space.
【Self-Defense – Stage 2】
Thanks to quickly deploying the second stage of self-defense, I was able to withstand the first stage of the strongest wind blow.
However, the power gradually decreased over five times and was released forward.
After that, we had to block four more attacks.
I did my best to avoid the attack by using a protective barrier as well as quick dodge and leap.
It was indeed Kang Dong-hyun.
I felt like even if I had been hit properly once out of five times, I wouldn’t have been able to get rid of even a single bone.
That was because the iron legs of the small desk next to him were bent like a ruler.
It was a perfect picture to guess what it would have looked like if it had been a human bone.
But in the end, no damage was caused. I dodged all of Kang Dong-hyun’s attacks and added some more mana.
【Jeonggwangbido】
Kanghu took out a practice dagger from his chest and used the Jeongwangbido skill and threw it at Kang Dong-hyeon.
An average hunter would see a dagger flying fiercely and find a way to avoid or block it.
However, Kang Dong-hyun took power without hesitation in the direction from which the dagger was flying.
“Ha!”
Fists and daggers collided in an instant.
Although it was a practice dagger, it was an attack with considerable momentum.
However, there was no change except for a little sparks flying from Kang Dong-hyun’s fingertips.
Deep down, I thought his body might be pushed back even a little, but it ended up with him flinching.
‘He’s an ignorantly strong guy.’
Although it is not a skill that can be underestimated like this, Kang Hu thought of Kang Dong-hyun’s image simply.
Of course, he is not just ignorantly strong. It also had its own strategy and tactics.
However, it is true that compared to a typical hunter of the same level, his physical ability is superior.
“Ugh! Wow!”
Kang Dong-hyun stretched out his fists here and there to hit Kang-hu, who was still in hiding.
Every time, a strong shock wave came out and the inner wall collapsed and shook, but he didn’t care.
【Pungrojin】
Kang Hu got on Kang Dong-hyeon’s nerves by deliberately setting up a storm in order to make it difficult for him to make a decision.
It was unlikely that he would be hurt by the wind and thunderstorm, but he would be concerned about the effects of the attack.
“You have a lot of talent! Let’s see how long you can stay hidden like that!”
There was a reason for Kang Dong-hyun’s words.
This is because mana is required to maintain stealth. Hiding is not indefinite.
So, if you attack in all directions in a narrow space while properly blocking Ganghu’s attacks.
In the end, it was calculated that the situation would come to an end either because Ganghu’s mana would be depleted or it would become difficult to maintain stealth.
Unfortunately, Kang Dong-hyun underestimated Kang-hu’s abilities.
In his own way, he thought that he had a high opinion of Kanghu’s skills, but they were infinitely lower compared to his actual skills.
For Ganghu who chewed Mad Solarchium, mana consumption was not the least bit of concern.
Stay hidden?
As long as there was no direct impact, maintenance was possible for 30 minutes without problems.
Kang Dong-hyun never thought that Kang-hoo could utilize mana infinitely under special conditions.
It was a fatal misjudgment.
Ganghu generously poured the constantly gathering mana into the dungeon, and the end slowly began to come into view.
‘good. I can feel it.’
A 7th floor underground dungeon that was greedy for mana. The amount of mana it absorbs has decreased significantly.
The fact that the amount was decreasing meant that the end was not far away.
There is no need to accept excessive mana beyond the set amount, so it can be adjusted automatically.
【Shadow Walk】
【Illusion Art】
【Vision Robbery】
Next, Ganghu generously poured out some of the skills he had been saving towards Kang Dong-hyeon.
Attack intention? It wasn’t there from the beginning.
It was Kang Hu’s plan to completely disrupt Kang Dong-Hyeon’s vision and buy time.
In the first place, it was an incredible task for a hunter who was less than level 100 to deal with a hunter who was over 500.
In human terms, it is like a 7-year-old child dealing with a 25-year-old athlete.
Does it draw a picture?
This is a match-up that cannot and should not be accomplished unless there is a significant handicap.
This is because one side’s win rate is not 99.9% but 100%. The battle between the two hunters was just like that.
‘done.’
in between.
The color of the entrance to the dungeon, which had absorbed ample mana, began to change. Ready to accept it.
“uh?”
Kang Dong-hyun tilted his head.
It doesn’t seem like that much time has passed, but has the entrance to the dungeon already opened?
It was just a very brief engagement that could be considered the beginning of an exploration war.
From Kang Dong-hyun’s perspective, his body had not yet warmed up. But for one side, the situation is over.
and.
“Catch it if you can.”
Kang-hoo swore at Kang Dong-hyeon, who was making a blank expression, and entered the dungeon.
A neat stance.
Kang Dong-hyun became like a dog chasing chickens and could do nothing.
I tried to push myself into the entrance, hoping for something, but all I got back was a cold bounce.
“ha ha ha. This is completely unexpected. “Did I underestimate Shin Kang-hu’s abilities too much?”
Kang Dong-hyun showed a dejected expression.
I knew from the video of her battle with Cha So-hee that she knew how to use more diverse skills than expected.
I also confirmed that he uses his skills generously in the video.
In other words, I thought he was a hunter with some abundance in terms of mana stats.
However, keeping myself in check, avoiding attacks at the same time, and even infusing mana into the dungeon…
I never thought that three tracks would be possible. To do that, you really need a lot of mana.
But Kanghu did it.
In other words, Kang Dong-hyun completely misjudged Kang-hoo’s ability to manipulate mana.
“I really want it. I feel like if I just get this guy, Sohee’s death will be cheapened…”
Kang Dong-hyun licked his lips.
They say that a mature tree begins with its cotyledons, and Kang-hu’s potential appears to be at the level of golden cotyledons.
“First of all, I’ll have to catch it somehow when I come out of the dungeon again. shit. “It’s been a while since my stomach hurt.”
Kang Dong-hyun stroked his stomach.
Thinking about Kang-hu leisurely conquering a dungeon he couldn’t even enter, makes me feel sick to my stomach.
But it can’t be helped.
Kang Dong-hyun also can’t figure out how to get in here right now.
As a matter of fact, Kang-hoo took a hit and was given free admission without having to pay a single penny for the admission fee.
* * *
After entering the dungeon, Kanghu immediately sped up and began his attack.
Although it is referred to as the Limitless Mana Dungeon, it is not actually a proper noun that refers to a single dungeon.
This is because there are more dungeons that require a large amount of mana as an entrance ticket than you might think.
In addition, there are cases where entrance fees are requested in the form of ‘blood’ or other forms of living hunters rather than mana.
The worst case scenario is a place that demands the ‘life’ of a living hunter. In other words, someone must die for the door to open.
In fact, most hunters were reluctant to enter these dungeons for moral reasons.
However, the world does not proceed in such a moral and upright manner. Naturally, there were many hunters who brought sacrifices.
Anyway, there was a variable in the difficult dungeon entry conditions that even Kang Dong-hyun appeared.
Got inside without incident.
Kang Dong-hyun’s carelessness also played a role, and his choice to generously consume Mad Solarchium was also right.
“The overall level of the dungeon is around 200. “It seems like the experience points are definitely twice as much as expected.”
Since it was a form of accumulated internal energy that had never been attacked, the overall reward was good.
Even though it did not drop special items or magic stones, the experience itself was abundant.
“Because this opportunity only comes once.”
Once you finish conquering the dungeon, you cannot enjoy the same benefits in this reset dungeon.
At that time, the default experience value is returned to its original state. That’s half of what it is now.
at that time.
Coo! Coo!
The middle boss, about 3 meters tall and with a muscular body, appeared from the darkness.
As it was approaching a bamboo forest area, the alert level was raised, and it was discovered right away.
however.
【Ad】
【Depending on the special dungeon environment, you can definitely obtain 1 Red Stone.】 The
content shown below along with the name of the middle boss was content that could not normally be seen.
To interpret the content, it means that a special reward was added because the energy inside the dungeon was accumulated.
The reward was nothing else but a red stone.
Redstone is an essential material needed to upgrade skills. If you don’t have a gemstone, you can’t even start upgrading your skills.
Currently, Ganghu has a total of 1 red stone.
If you have a red stone, it is possible to raise your self-defense skill to level 3.
Furthermore, it becomes possible to upgrade difficult skills that require two or more gemstones.
The fact that the middle boss gives you 1 also means that you can expect at least 2 from the main boss.
If you have any chance, you can do some rock farming here and go.
“The problem is that guy.”
Kwasik! Quad deuk!
Crrrrr.
Ganghu stared at the middle boss, Ard, who appeared nervously breaking bamboo.
It was a bipedal, crocodile-type monster with one arm trimmed to resemble a sharp blade.
Each body part is a weapon.
“Getting one red stone is like picking a star in the sky, but even if you can’t get it, it’s still worth it.”
Ganghu is ready for battle. There is nothing to be afraid of as Mad Solarchium’s weak attack still remains.
* * *
That time.
‘It doesn’t seem like anything special happened.’
Sangmi Yoon, who was enjoying the pleasure-filled atmosphere of Hades, turned his gaze.
It’s been a while since Kang-hu entered, but there hasn’t been any news, so it seems like he entered safely.
‘Who am I worrying about?’
Yoon Sang-mi reflected on herself for thinking, even for a moment, that Kang-hoo might have been wrong.
Looking at Kang-hu, I was confident, even if it was a vague feeling, that he would not be in danger.
This may be because we know quite a bit about Kang-hoo’s steps so far.
It felt like Kang-hoo always had a second and third plan. So he didn’t seem to be embarrassed even if he failed.
Honestly, I was jealous.
This is because strategic planning is impossible without confidence in one’s own abilities and without sufficient capabilities.
Sang-mi Yoon was convinced that he could not face the crisis as skillfully and calmly as Kang-hu.
Therefore, it was natural to feel a sense of awe toward Kang Hu and at the same time, a fondness for his skills.
Furthermore, the same applies to liking someone of the opposite sex. He certainly had the charm of a cold city man.
at that time.
Coo coo coo coo! Coo coo coo coo!
The sound of busy footsteps could be heard outside the closed iron door near the emergency exit on the 6th basement floor.
Since the direction of all sounds was downward, it was clear that they were moving to the 7th floor underground.
“….”
I was a little worried.
Kang Hu went in and there was nothing he could do.
Are they trying to catch Kang-hu coming out of the dungeon?
Although Kang-hu clearly said that he had a plan to escape, he couldn’t help but be worried.
The total number of footsteps heard at first glance was at least twenty.
How can one escape the siege of so many hunters?
Even Kang Dong-hyun is at the club, so will he be able to get out alive?
