Chapter 304 – Dungeons
“Whew… It’s definitely going up this way, so the chase is a bit slow.”
『Still, gears are rising. Let’s hurry.”
“Good.”
Seong-il runs towards the clock tower with all his might. The sword runs alongside him, floating in the air.
‘Fuck… I wish I could fly too.’
While thinking in vain, the two manage to escape the doll’s pursuit and arrive at the clock tower they aimed for.
‘I came this way because it looked suspicious, but it’s a headache if it’s in an empty place.’
Thinking that he may have been too hasty, Seong-il starts to enter the clock tower with the sword.
“Hmm…”
A view of the fairly wide clock tower. However, when there is nothing there, Seong-il groans in despair.
『No? Is it a bit higher?”
“It’s a pity… It’s difficult if it’s empty? Wouldn’t it be impossible to escape if you go up and get surrounded?”
“Hmm…”
The time when the two of them were thinking about exploration. Strange noises begin to be heard behind them.
“Hey! Come! Bounce!!』
Wooden dolls surround the clock tower. Seeing this, Seong-il looks serious and slams the front door with his strength.
Quaang!!
The door was smashed and blocked in an instant. However, the dolls constantly knock on the broken door and try to enter.
“Hey! Let’s bounce upstairs!』
“…Let’s go!”
After answering that, the two look at each other lightly and start running to the rooftop.
Kwaaaaang!!
『What are you doing?』
“It’s troublesome when they come up. We’ll have to break down the door to delay the time they come up even a little bit.”
『By the way.』
Seong-il and sword destroy the doll’s entryway as much as possible and climb to the top.
Weeing!!
“Hmm…?”
Your phone rings out of nowhere. Seong-il runs and checks his phone.
“…What?”
『Quest Completed』
* Help the blood baron and the vampires to slaughter the city (1,000/1,000)
* Remove the market (1/1)
“…Suddenly?”
When the mayor was removed, the situation of the quest was solved before I knew it, as if it was counted as killing the mutated citizens.
“What happened…”
Although he was a bit dumbfounded, Seong-il holds back his doubts and concentrates on jumping to the top.
‘If I have to, I’ll have to jump out onto the inner plane. But does the inner plane work inside the dungeon?’
While thinking about it, Seong-il realizes that he has reached the top of the clock tower.
“Gulp”
『Really~』
Seong-Il opens the rooftop door with half nervousness and half curiosity. Then, a bizarre being appears in front of him.
“…What is that.”
A giant wooden hand and bare head floating around a sphere of light, probably the core of a dungeon.
The red thread Seong-il saw was tightly attached to his wooden hand.
“Hmm…”
『It’s creepy.』
“Does it look very strong there?”
The appearance of the core that seems to be formidable even with a cursory glance with 『Emotion』. I have a feeling that if I stick with it like this, I might be defeated.
『What are you going to do? Are you two going to fight?”
“…”
Seong-il ponders whether or not to summon Eun-wol at the words of the sword. After thinking about it for a while, he said, instead of summoning Eun-wol, he took the ceremony of starting the bankruptcy priesthood.
“Let’s try to solve it by ourselves.”
“Oh, are you okay?”
“…You can’t live by relying on certain friends forever.”
『That’s right!』
A sword that agreed with Seongil’s manly words with a loud voice. After saying that, the two start charging at Core.
“Kuk!”
Core, who was looking at Seongil blindly. However, when he tries to attack, revealing that he is going to live, it starts attacking by brandishing its huge hands.
『Wow! If you get hit by one, you’ll die right away, right?”
“…I know even if you don’t tell me.”
Seong-il felt the strong wind pressure all over his body, even though he only swung it nearby. He feels as though he will be shattered without bones remaining if he gets hit directly by that fist.
‘Fuck… Shit… Close combat is absolutely impossible.’
Seong-il thought so, immediately drank the stamina potion, and then used the black slaughter magic field again to infuse the core with demonic energy.
『Bake it!!』
And the core, which had been hit directly by the black meat, let out a strange roar and wildly swung its two hands in all directions.
“What… What are you doing?”
Seong-il is taken aback by the image of Core waving like crazy without even thinking about matching himself. But, that’s for a while. He realizes that strange red threads are beginning to attach to every corner of his body.
“Fuck… What the fuck is this?!”
As he wraps the thread around every corner of his body, Seong-il struggles to get the thread off his body.
“Patience!!”
However, instead of falling off, the red thread began to entwine around the body even more. He feels his body slow down because of it.
“Hey! Be careful!”
While Sung-il is momentarily embarrassed by the thread sticking to his body, Core’s huge hand starts flying at him.
“Kuh…!”
Seong-il was taken aback by the fast-flying fist with the strong wind pressure. He realizes that he can’t escape his hands that are tightly gripping his body.
‘Fuck… I can’t avoid this. There is no way to stop…’
When there is no way to stop it, Seong-il raises the output of his psychokinesis to the maximum and spreads it like a shield in front of his eyes.
“Nice…”
Seong-Il put all his strength into the telekinesis shield, except for the minimum power. The dungeon core’s fist hit his shield heavily.
Kwaaaaang!!
“Chehehe…!!”
Seong-il projected so much power that colorless telekinesis was faintly visible. Despite his efforts, a strong shock is projected onto his body through Seongil’s shield.
“Keep it off…”
Bone-chilling pain. Seong-il realizes that the telekinesis, which he poured out all his inner energy, barely blocked a single blow.
‘Twice is impossible…’
Seong-il takes out a black ball from his bosom, thinking that it would be worth trying without the bizarre red thread.
“The plague… I wanted to solve it on my own this time.”
A cursed sword that rushes into the middle of the core for the fallen self and is struggling to divert the gaze of the core from the fallen Seongil.
Seong-il throws his ball to the floor without hesitation.
“Come out! Eunwol!!”
『I summoned a character from a world that has not yet been cleared. 10,000 points will be deducted.』
At the end of Seongil’s scratching lines, the intense light from his cheeks protrudes.
“Huh? Did you call… Huh?!”
Eun-wol was about to wave and say hello to Seong-il who summoned her. In the meantime, not only is her holy day fallen in front of her eyes, but she quickly assumes a fighting stance as an intense life force gushes out from behind her.
“…Is that?”
“Kkeuh… Do you remember exploring the dungeon with me a while ago?”
“Could that be the core?”
“Huh…”
Unlike before, when the core seemed to attack Seong-il with a very strong aggression, Eun-wol put on a puzzled expression.
“Huh… I guess you didn’t do it alone?”
“Uh… Stop trying to do it without your help this time…”
“Puha! That’s a good attitude! Sometimes you need that kind of challenge!”
After saying that, Eun-wol smiled at her and began to slash her body with a huge fist flying at her.
“Omg…”
Far from dodging her huge flying fist, Eun-wol stretched out her slender hands without hesitation and bumped into each other.
Aaaaang!!
When Eunwol’s palm touched her fist, which was larger than her own torso, an intense sound of destruction spread throughout her intestines.
『Bake it!!』
The core roared with a roar as if it had received a tremendous shock from the small and fine palm of the silver moon. Seong-il hears a scream that makes one wonder where the sound is coming from.
“Huh… He’s quite strong?”
After that, Eun-wol starts to leave the water with all her might. She doesn’t evade her core attacks, and exchanges dozens of powerful attacks as if she’s having fun.
In the meantime, Seong-il, who watches the battle between Eun-wol and her core, sees the figure of the sword playing the same as hers.
“Hey! Sword! What are you doing!!”
Seong-il, who is shocked by her appearance, desperately cuts off the thread that clings to her body and uses her cursed sword.
“Oh…! Sorry! I don’t even know…”
As if understanding the sword’s futility, he throws himself into the dungeon core.
Poop!!
The dull sound of a sharp sword breaking through the shell of a core. After that, it starts to hack the inside of the broken core with a sword-like sound.
『Bake it!!』
Core let out a terrifying roar as the sword began to hack through her own body. As her bastard tries to move her hand toward her body to hold her sword, Eun-wol puts her signature black hair on her hand with a funny smile.
“Where is this bastard…!!”
Eun-wol spits out a word that is too hard to read and spits out merciless water. In the end, the core is unable to do this or that, and eventually begins to tear her body down with her sword attack.
『Down!! I’m going to go to the middle of the day!!』
“…Do you think it’s okay to stop?”
『Haa… Haa… It’s hard…”
After saying that, he fell as if he were being thrown onto the black floor.
‘The magic must have been released prematurely due to excessive activity.’
Seong-il quickly approaches the sword and retrieves it. The sword whines to him and talks to him.
『Aaaaa… It was hard…』
“Great job.”
『Should I cast a spell like this again next time? Know?”
“Ha… I promise.”
“Oh yeah!!”
Seong-il approaches Eun-wol with a tired sword hanging from his waist.
“Hey… You’ve learned another magic technique? The sword flies… Is it the legendary Yigo sword?”
“Iggy… What?”
“Ah, it’s a swordsmanship that can be used when reaching the level of unification of divine swords…”
Seong-il carefully listens to her explanation. He realizes that Eun-wol has a ridiculous misunderstanding and quickly corrects it.
“…Can you do that at my level? It’s just a kind of magic, magic.”
“Huh… That’s right!”
After thanking Eun-wol, Seong-il moves to Core.
Weeing!!
“…?”
『General Review: Wow! Higher grade cores so quickly? Give it up quickly!』
“…”
A general comment that is so urgent. Seeing him talking to him after a long time, Seong-il smiled bitterly and put the phone to his core.
Ugh!!
Time slows down as usual, and a core that creates intense waves. As before, the core pumps out an enormous amount of energy, powering the phone.
‘How many times more than before?’
Maybe it’s because the grade is 3 steps up, the amount of energy seems enormous. Seong-il waited longer than expected to see the absorption complete.
『General Review: 7th grade core absorption, 5 days required until absorption day.』
‘Hmm… Even though the grade has gone up, is it absorbed faster than before? Is it because of frequent absorption?’
Kugu Palace!!
“What?”
A roaring sound heard while silently thinking about a question. Seong-il realizes that the buildings around him are collapsing.
‘This! Is it because the core is smashed?’
Avoiding the falling objects of the rapidly collapsing clock tower, Seong-il quickly begins to sweep the core fragments into the duffel bag he has brought.
“Eunwol! I have to bounce quickly, so let’s go for a while!”
“Yes! Gongja-nim!!”
Seong-il quickly puts her in her cheek and uses her liver-use dungeon exit generator to get out of her dungeon.
“Whoa… Are all high-level dungeons like this? I had a bizarre experience…”
Seong-il sighs as he crouches down under the collapsed subway. That moment when he forgets even the dreary surroundings and catches his breath. Someone starts calling him.
“…What, who the hell are you there?”
“!!”
Suddenly, a voice came from behind him. Seong-il flinched at the sound and looked around.
Then, the figure of a woman wearing messy clothes that came into his eyes.
She was wearing an old-fashioned hunter’s uniform, patched in places, frowning as she looked at her holy day.
‘…What? That girl? It looks pretty strong.’
The appearance of a woman who seems to have extraordinary fighting skills. Seong-il is nervous about her appearance and raises her ability.
