Chapter 122 – Chapter 2 – Chaerin Yoo (2)
A strange feeling as if the body is floating.
I remember feeling it before in a test that required me to enter a dungeon with low difficulty.
This is the feeling you get when entering a dungeon.
[Prove your oath by correcting the remaining twist on the target.]
[Distortion of space: You will be trapped with the target in the dungeon created through the target’s trauma. Take the target and clear the dungeon.]
“What else do you mean by this?”
Looking at what appeared through the property window, it seems to be a function made up of a part of the property.
The person who made it said he didn’t know how to prove the oath, so he kindly explained it.
Are you saying that Hyeeun didn’t implement this separately?
‘You mean this is a dungeon created based on Chaerin’s trauma?’
I’m not sure how the heck they managed to implement such a system.
First of all, it sounded like you had to go through something like this ordeal to make that navel view magazine.
But the description said that Chaerin was with her, but why did she arrive at the dungeon alone?
‘No, let’s look at the dungeon structure first.’
It’s the first time I’ve been through this situation anyway, and there was nothing unusual about what happened.
If that’s the case, the correct answer would be to check the situation while raiding the dungeon as carefully as possible.
There’s no way the talent window will lie, so you should be able to find it while clearing the dungeon.
“It seems to be a typical labyrinth form.”
In general, the interior of a dungeon has many different forms, enough to be regarded as just another dimension.
However, among them, it was the labyrinth form that appeared the most and was studied a lot.
These dungeons generally start at the starting point indoors and are finally cleared when they reach the final destination.
There are many cases where you go down or go up the stairs, and as the word labyrinth says, the roads and progress are twisted like a maze.
If you get the wrong way, you have to go back and use traps to kill the attackers from time to time.
‘Well, the term labyrinth form itself is too broad.’
Are there monsters in the labyrinth, or if there are difficult puzzles or special abilities required?
Are there any link elements such as stories or world views that are linked to other dungeons?
There are so many types of labyrinth dungeons that you have to divide them in detail, such as whether there is a boss in the last room of the labyrinth.
“I never thought I’d be doing this myself…”
It draws out mana as if it were using an attribute, and then hits the dungeon floor or wall without using the attribute.
Since magical powers of different natures tend to repel each other, the hand bounced off naturally.
I’m just starting to figure out what level it is.
It’s hard to be sure because I’ve never actually played it, but even though I’m level 10, my hands are flying like this…
Just by looking at the magic contained in the dungeon, I could tell that the dungeon’s difficulty was very high.
Actually, it’s a dungeon made for two level 10 people to clear, but is it weird that the difficulty level is low?
‘Hmm, what material is this? It’s very luxurious and solid.’
Still, I did a lot of research to find out about the materials that come out of a lot of dungeons.
This dungeon felt like it was made of materials I had never seen before, so I was reluctant in many ways.
It was shiny like marble, dark in color, close to diamond in strength, and not so low in ductility.
If you can carry it right away, you can see it as a great guy to the level of being treated as the highest quality material when making weapons.
Since the buildings that make up the labyrinth were plastered with such materials, it would be impossible to create a new route while destroying the dungeon.
It’s a dungeon that is induced to progress while following the standard strategy.
This is not good news for attackers because it is a bit less free.
And most of these guys that are designed to be difficult to damage are called mythical dungeons because they play a very important role in a certain worldview.
The difficulty varies widely, but clearing is generally easy, but in many cases you have to sacrifice someone.
So there were a lot of things that would make you feel bad when you hear about related incidents.
But what kind of trauma did you have to go through a dungeon like this?
‘There are no monsters.’
It’s not that monsters don’t appear because it’s a mythical dungeon, but it’s used as a clear condition element that opens the way.
The monsters were not placed in a way to just blindly block them, but the monsters themselves were set as a means of achieving a certain goal.
It has a strong feeling of giving challenges to challengers rather than protecting something.
It feels like you have to solve this ordeal to clear this place.
So these days, if it turns out to be a mythic dungeon, I never try to clear it.
As slowly as possible, find the meaning of the ordeal intended by the dungeon, and aim for perfect success by challenging it several times.
Only then can the dungeon be cleared without any sacrifice.
“Ha, I’m going to work in a really unexpected route.”
And it is always the manager’s job to find out how to attack the dungeon.
Of course, all the information and data needed to clear the dungeon are recorded by the hunters and returned.
So, for the first time in my life, I was faced with a situation where I had to do that work.
When I left the room at the starting point, the outside was a space that felt like an auditorium.
And on one side was a door that looked like it had been ripped off by something.
The door on the other side showed signs of being attacked but was not damaged.
‘It’s a trap.’
As I said before, it is a dungeon made of materials that cannot be broken with considerable force.
It didn’t make sense to design it so that only one of the two doors could be broken there.
In other words, the forcibly torn door there can be seen as a trap that should never be entered.
Anyway, considering the state of firepower and the style of attack, the culprit who smashed this door seems to be Chaerin no matter how much I think about it.
I can’t be sure, but I thought that Chaerin might have started clearing the dungeon before me.
Sometimes, there are dungeons where the starting location is different, or some people are put to sleep and then start late.
I guess you could think of this as something like that.
“There’s no way that Chaerin didn’t know that it was a trap.”
I think I could have just proceeded with confidence even though I knew it was a trap.
I would have decided that it would be good to see how it was done and come back.
However, seeing that no one came back this way, there was a road over there that kept going…
‘It must have fallen into a state of no return.’
It was right to see that this was never a good situation.
Anyway, my maximum firepower is similar to Chaerin’s, so if it’s a trap that Chaerin can’t escape, I’ll be caught in the same way.
In other words, going through the same door over there was tantamount to committing suicide.
If that’s the case, that means you have to open this neat door right next to it.
There were no signs or information on the door, and what was unusual was the patterns painted on the floor of this auditorium.
Just looking at it, it felt like a puzzle that required some prior knowledge, so it was a pain in the ass.
Originally, I would connect to the server that collects this kind of data and compare it to find information.
Now, without that, I had to solve the puzzle only with the information in this dungeon.
No, but wasn’t it a dungeon made based on Chaerin’s trauma?
So, this is an actual dungeon that is related to Chaerin.
Most of the dungeons that Chaerin went into are famous, so there’s no way I wouldn’t know about them, but this is the first time I’ve seen this dungeon.
It’s a dungeon that Chaerin didn’t enter, so could there be trauma?
There are even cases where a friendly Hunter came in and couldn’t come out…
‘For a moment’
What if the reason I haven’t seen this dungeon is because it’s very old?
Yoo Chae-rin’s mother, Hunter Yoo Chae-hwa, was an S-class hunter who was called the hope of Korea.
And then, the fact that she sacrificed herself to clear a mythical dungeon was one of the most famous events in her hunter world.
What if Yu Chae-rin’s trauma is the dungeon itself that killed her mother?
And what if this dungeon was made by copying the mythical dungeon?
I went on to complete a plausible possibility by successive assumptions.
“Yes, I remember the last sentence.”
One of the reasons the incident is famous is that the video data of the dungeon attack that Hunter Yoo Chae-hwa was filming was leaked as it was.
The last question, ‘What if I could save the world by sacrificing myself?’ Comes from the dungeon.
The oil painting hunter, who was staring at the slate with something written on her, decides to sacrifice herself after her troubles.
Thanks to that, the dungeon was able to be cleared without incident, unlike the previous result of having 1 million casualties in a similar dungeon.
And, of course, then the oil painting hunter lost her life in her dungeon.
So, even in Korea, where hunters flock to every single action and write bad comments, oil painting hunters are like sanctuaries, so no one touches them.
“And assuming the words on that last stone tablet were ‘If you could save the world by sacrificing me?’…”
I shook my head at the letters on the floor that were subtly similar to those on the slate.
There were no identical letters at all, so I thought it wouldn’t be related, but it seemed like I knew the rules to some extent.
Rolling my head as much as I could and putting them together somehow was the most important solution.
Since the first letter meaning ‘me’ is reversed, I think it would be more correct to interpret it as ‘you’.
The ending of ‘There is’ at the end is a little different, but basically it’s a similar feeling and nuance.
The problem is that there are no letters that are similar to each other, but they are letters in the middle…
“At least one looks like ‘Jekyll’.”
There is something like a circle added to the letters that mean ‘Jekyll’.
But that circle looks the same as the one in ‘there’.
It means that it is a word that has the meaning of ‘to protect’ and part of the meaning of ‘to be’.
“Keep your promises. Keep your promises?
If that word is ‘evidence’, then the question roughly written on the floor is ‘If you bring any evidence you have, the door can be opened.’ It is possible to predict the extent to which
Even the word expected to be ‘evidence’ was written in the strange space under the question, so if you interpret it to put ‘evidence’ there, it fits perfectly.
It’s just a plausible hit, but the original analysis of dungeon raids all proceeds in this way.
I can’t help it because I have to try to translate it in the fucking lack of materials.
“The word in front of evidence splits the word ‘world’ in half and has something drawn on top.”
It seems to mean something above the world, but assuming that the word you found earlier is ‘evidence’, it becomes ‘strong’ in context.
In this way, the sentence ‘If you bring proof that you are strong, you can open the door’ is complete.
Pretty much, this is a law that requires items in the dungeon, but I haven’t seen anything unusual to put here so far.
After thinking about what to put as ‘evidence’ for a while, I saw the door that Chaerin had broken down.
Honestly, isn’t it strong enough to break that thing?
“Ah?”
At that moment, I realized what ‘proof of strength’ is.
Take the fragment of the door that Chaerin broke down and put it on the floor where the word ‘evidence’ is written.
From there, a strange line of light continued and began to connect toward the door.
Kugu Palace!
It was only when I saw the tightly closed door open little by little that I let out a sigh of relief because I thought I had answered correctly.
I really thought I would die of old age without being able to do anything here.
“What is it, suddenly a prison-like design in a labyrinth…”
As I checked the condition beyond the door, I felt a very small audible presence.
I cautiously walked in the direction I felt the presence of, and inspected the situation.
“…What?”
What I found when I arrived.
It was Chaerin tied up in a chain with a fucking angry expression.
