Chapter 54 – Chapter 54 Poison
This time, I tried to use only a stealth attack with a poison arrow. This time, the orc died as it were.
Jason’s skills were beyond this dungeon.
This time I used a normal arrow.
This time, he used an assassination attack.
He even tried using poisoned arrows and normal arrows without using ambush.
Experiments were carried out under various conditions.
And I was able to find out that the poison works differently from Korea.
Originally, the poison Jason knew was a form of poison that permeates the body of a creature and kills it slowly.
However, the snake venom that Spear saved seemed to give additional damage in game terms.
And Jason aimed at the center of the orc’s chest to achieve the same effect as possible.
And as the damage was severe, the venom spread through the veins and dyed the green skin of the orc black.
It was clear that the more the black aura spread, the more deadly it was.
‘It’s fun.’
The use of poison mixed with murder spread twice as much poison as the use of poison mixed with assassination.
I don’t know what the principle is, but it seemed that the killing doubled the poison.
‘But. It’s a status window. Is the level I can’t understand what it’s called a skill.’
It’s okay if you don’t understand.
As long as he knew and analyzed that power and used it in the right place, he didn’t even care about its principle.
Jason knew the concept of status windows and skills, and was content with learning how to use poison, which was far more advanced than other thieves.
“One regrettable thing is that the Orcs here are too weak.”
Assassinations always risk everything on the first strike.
I wondered if I could kill an intermediate adventurer with one shot.
Jason wasn’t an idiot testing his skills in action.
As he himself goes up in level, the strength of his ambushes also goes up.
This also applied to other adventurers.
It was the difference between using it knowingly and using it without knowing it.
All adventurers became harder to kill as they leveled up.
Whether it bloomed better or was harder, there was an intervention of something that transcended the laws of physics.
The rule that warriors are stronger than wizards holds, but higher level wizards are also stronger than lower level warriors.
“The Orc Chief here is difficult to deal with even mid-level adventurers?”
And it was the same with monsters.
As the level of the monster went up, something became stronger.
Even Jason, who had killed many monsters, felt that.
You can find out if you can kill an intermediate adventurer by killing an Orc chief.
Jason had no intention of spending a long time in a dungeon like this.
Dealing with the Orcs didn’t help much in leveling up.
“Then let’s go up to a higher place.”
It was the same for humans and monsters that the higher they climbed, the higher they liked it.
This was a forgotten ancient temple.
There was the best room up high, and it was certain that the chieftain would be there.
Now Jason and his women advanced through the dungeon like seasoned adventurers.
After reconnaissance, an orc was reduced by an assault, and the battle began.
The one who left the battlefield to call another orc got Jason’s arrow stuck in his back.
Later, it was to the point that everyone wanted to use poison.
Nainyar asked Spear.
“How much does that snake venom cost?”
“About 1000 gold per bottle.”
And Nainyar gave up right away.
Jason, who runs several kissing rooms and earns 600 gold a day, was a price that would have been difficult to use if it had not been for an experiment.
The reason why poison was not used well was the price.
After one battle, one bottle of poison was consumed.
The poison was washed away by the orc’s blood, and there was no choice.
It was an expense that most adventurers could not afford.
Like that, Jason’s party quickly broke through the dungeon and went upstairs.
And when it was thought that he had come up to the top floor with the view outside, Jason signaled that he would go out alone to reconnaissance.
Putting on dark goggles, I muffled my voice and disappeared into the darkness.
Jason slowly circled the interior of the temple.
As he wandered through the crowded hallways, he heard sounds from inside the closed rooms.
Then, he found a place where the orc chief could be with just a rough feeling.
Unlike the other rooms, it was a room guarded by two orcs with spears.
Jason brought Spia to make sure to deal with the two.
He poisoned her dagger as well.
If Jason handled the two orcs by himself, the sound of the two orcs falling to the ground as corpses would be unstoppable.
It took two people to do the assassination safely.
Then Jason took out one of his coins and threw it out of sight of the orc guards.
The sound of the coins flying through the air was imperceptible even to sensitive thieves, and the sound of the coins striking the stone floor was immediately audible even to dull orcs.
Coins were always useful items in dungeons.
One of the orc guards said something and then headed towards the sound of the coin.
Jason moved stealthily between his pillars, catching the gaze of the orc guards.
Then Spear crouched down and stood behind the orc who tilted her head at why the coin was here.
At the same time as Spear’s assassination shot fell on the orc’s head, Jason quickly jumped out from between his pillars and fired a slaughter.
It was about three steps away, but Jason moved as fast as a beam of light and took the orc by the throat.
The two orcs died without even a moment to scream.
Black poisonous energy spread from their wounds.
And before the two corpses of the orcs fell to the ground, the two thieves grabbed the bodies of the orcs and laid them slowly on the floor.
It didn’t make any sound.
And Jason prepared a poisoned arrow and sent his eyes to Spear.
Spia opened her door with her foot.
Bang!
Inside, an orc chieftain was having a sex party with several other female orcs.
The orc chieftain didn’t even react properly when the door was suddenly opened and the two adventurers were there.
‘You are your own fortune teller. It wouldn’t be such a sad death.’
Jason killed the orc chief before he could grab his weapon.
A poisoned arrow was lodged in his heart.
“Quooooo!”
And the orc chief did not die.
Jason quickly checked the status window of the orc chieftain.
Name: Red Moral. Orc Chief.
Past Life: None.
Level: Warrior 34.
Strength: 91.
Agility: 64.
Intelligence: 55.
Charm: 84.
The rumor that it was possible to be a mid-level adventurer was not a lie.
“Retreat!”
Jason shouted quickly and started running backwards.
Spear was also a thief with a solid foundation and was capable of ramming.
The two quickly backed off. And maybe the orc chief was also an orc, so he ran as fast as the thief who used the method of recombination.
Spear and Jason untied the caltrop pouch and scattered its contents on the floor.
The caltrop with sharp needles rising up was Do-joo’s friend.
The orc chief did not stop pursuing him even as caltrops stuck in his feet.
However, the speed slowed down so Jason and Spea could safely join Nainyar and Janie.
The orc chief arrived in a mess.
He had a poison arrow lodged in his chest and his penis was dangling because he was not wearing clothes.
Seeing that, Nain Yar frowned at him.
In his hand was a single, huge two-handed axe.
He felt at a disadvantage alone and shouted so loudly that his entire temple rang.
“Everybody come out!”
However, as he climbed up the dungeon, he came up killing numerous orcs.
It would take a long time until other orcs joined.
“Let’s finish quickly.”
If only the orc chieftain was finished off, he would somehow manage to escape.
Nine Yar nodded his head and stepped forward.
The orc chieftain brandished his two-handed axe.
Nainyar tried to channel the attack.
But the skill of the orc chieftain was admirable, and the heavy, sharp blade of the ax pushed through Nainyar’s rapier and cut her chest.
Nine Yar doesn’t care for her wounds and she impales her rapier too.
It was a law that should not be spared against a strong enemy.
She swung her sword 4 times in an instant with all her strength.
He even used the warrior’s technique called a chain attack.
Thanks to this, the thick body of the orc chieftain had scars here and there.
And when he was preoccupied with the attack, the bandits were active.
Jason and Spea came out on either side of Nineyar.
He swung a poisoned dagger.
“Great!”
The orc chief knew how terrible that poison was.
I thought I should avoid it, but I couldn’t avoid the attack of the two thieves who had triggered an assault.
“Keuouk!”
The orc chieftain screamed and fell to the floor.
Spia asked Jason.
“Shall we rob the Orc chieftain’s room?”
No matter how much Jason is greedy for the money he gets from adventures, he doesn’t have a lot of side income from adventures.
The monsters were also greedy for treasure, and this accounted for a large portion of the adventurers’ income.
“Come back later. Now that the head is gone, the orcs will be confused for a while. There might be an infighting over the election of a new chieftain. Let’s come back then.”
And Jason didn’t miss the possibility of a small failure.
There were many adventurers like Spear.
Adventure was like gambling, so it made me feel like a huge mountain of treasure was always shimmering in front of my eyes.
However, if you are not careful at that moment, the adventurer’s life will be short-lived.
Jason calmly ordered a retreat.
And his women faithfully listened to it.
