Chapter 166 – Chapter 166. This Dungeon Is 100%! 100% Safe!
The main gate located in Gangwon-do, arrived by bus. Through that gate, I moved to a certain mountain valley, and there I crossed a smaller gate than before and entered a small dungeon.
〓 =
F-rank boss dungeon. You have entered the ‘Green Forest’.
Clear condition: Defeat the boss.
Number of admissions: 42/100
Time limit: None.
〓 =
“Five…”
Upon entering the dungeon, a green quest window similar to the status window pops up.
Jiing-
At the same time, something feels light and sticky.
I unknowingly opened and closed my fists.
Wheein-
When I raise my head in the wind blowing, the green rainforest where dinosaurs live welcomes me. A single leaf is big enough to cover me, and the tree densely covers the sky.
It feels completely different from the outside.
Looking back, I see a gate connected to the familiar forest of Gangwon-do.
“It’s fun.”
While I was laughing at the difference, Cheol-hyung, who came in last, tapped me on the shoulder.
On the way back, we talked for a while and became friends. A C+ rank hunter belonging to the Association. Cheol Lee.
“Yo, how about the first dungeon you entered?”
“It is strange and strange. And”
Bung bung-
“It’s more comfortable than I thought.”
“You really are a high-level Awoken. Can you feel the magic here?”
Admiring Cheol-i hyung. He opens and closes his fists like I do, perhaps feeling sorry for him.
I heard that the dungeon has a different energy and magic than the outside.
It is said that higher-grade awakeners are more sensitive to magical power. Physical abilities also increase.
However, if the concentration of magical power is very high, it is said that the body feels oppressed.
“Well, I don’t know the details, but this feels better than I thought.”
“Haha-! Now, let the mine exploration begin!”
At Cheol-hyung’s cry, the kids gather in groups of three, three, five, and spread the word.
The term grandiose field trip/practice is ridiculous, but what the apprentice class has to do is to collect rocks and plants mixed with usable magic stones in the ‘Infinite Mine’, not in the actual dungeon.
In a low-level dungeon that is easy to clear, if you intentionally imprison the boss without catching it, the connection with the earth will continue to be maintained,
Monsters and natural resources in the dungeon are periodically refilled.
A safe and inexhaustible mining farm is completed.
So it’s an infinite mine.
The students in the apprentice class gain experience here and are put into the dungeons they actually cleared only next year.
No matter how low-level the dungeon is, if a professional team rushes in and clears it, a few hundred dollars in income is guaranteed, so putting in the kids now, who are complete newbies, is the same as burning 10 million won into the sky.
It’s better from the academy’s point of view because you save money and don’t have to worry about the gate closing or get seriously hurt.
…A perfect Nogada talent training center.
Pick up-
Kids diligently spreading out, exploring and collecting, like kindergarten kids out for hands-on learning.
Sohee also runs around sweating profusely.
Haha- I was going to go on a date while noticing.
“It’s Sohee!”
There is a very stupid one next to it.
Knomp-Kangchung- A guy who shakes his twin tail and stares intently at the hard-working Sohee.
Ok die
Swipe-
Sohee doesn’t know what to look for and pick up, but when she digs up the ground and wipes the stones, she finds very pure magic stones or rare plant seeds.
“Lol-“
She smiled brightly, as if she was proud of that, and soon filled Seonwoo’s bag.
Because you don’t need that score.
He’s getting compliments on it again.
Tsk-
The older brother who was watching So-hee puts his arm on his shoulder.
“He’ll do well even if he’s a handling team.”
“He is a healer. Brother.”
“But why did you find it well?”
“Moll? Lou?”
Anyway, as I continued mining, I gradually went inside and unpacked.
Short break time.
“Brother! How about this!”
Mi-joo, dressed as an explorer, comes and acts aegyo.
“You are suffering…”
So-hee, who came all the way, sometimes gives me a drink and nods to say thank you.
Chul-hyung who tapped me on the shoulder as if he was envious is a bonus.
“Jjasik- Anyway, things that happen everywhere-“
Shhh-
…What?
“Brother, is it safe here?”
“Ok. People come to the mine for practice every year, and the association said it was safe, so you came here after half a year ago?”
“Half a year is warm enough…”
Hearing what Cheol said, the back of his neck tingled even more.
At the same time, Cheol hyung’s comment comes to mind.
‘Students! Rest assured! The gate is safe!’
Somehow, the gray picture reminds me of someone giving a speech with his hand raised.
Fuck. Was that flag real?
Even when I look around in uneasiness, there are no signs of a big deal, only raptor-like monsters the size of my feet are roaming around.
A level that kids can handle.
No matter how much you sharpen your senses, there is no problem.
But why are you so anxious?
The hot wind that blows is also somewhere.
“Strange. It’s strange…”
I pace around frantically looking around, then my eyes suddenly turn to one side.
Children huddled together under the big tree opposite me.
Including Mijoo’s gang – about 10 people, including Sohee and Seonwoo.
The moment when Mi-joo, who was making a strange expression, held out an object to So-hee, and So-hee tilted her head.
My body jumped out first at the alarm bell that rang without my knowledge.
“There-“
Whirik-!
Perhaps sensing someone’s presence, So-hee turned her head and the moment her eyes met, a strong wind blew and Mi-joo was sucked somewhere.
…Gasp-
“Kyaaak—!”
In an instant, I wheezed as I watched the kids around me being sucked in.
“Oh shit—!”
Tata tatak-!
Crooked-
I rushed to the child who was being sucked into the small gate entrance and reached out to her, but only her fingers grazed and he disappeared.
“Damn it!”
“Turn it off- turn it off!”
A pouty haired man with reddened face next to him half-stretched at the entrance of the gate, desperately holding someone’s hand.
I wondered how she held out until she had one arm firmly planted on the floor.
Deed Dede Deuk-
However, perhaps that is the limit, the floor is scratched and the body leans more and more.
I quickly grabbed his hand and pulled him.
Titik-
Deed deeddeuk—!
Growing power.
It seems that I will be sucked into the gate soon.
The moment you grit your teeth and pull the guy’s arm again.
“…”
The guy with his eyes closed biting his lip.
At the same time, someone’s hand slipped from his hand.
Struggling-
A hand cut through the air and escaped without a chance to say anything.
Kwak-!
“Caught.”
Fortunately, right at the end of the gate, I caught the hand that was being sucked right in.
And.
“Ah.”
I leaned forward to grab the outstretched hand.
Unlike the guy who put his arm around me, I have nothing to support
I got caught up in the gate helplessly.
The moment you get sucked in
The trembling pouty hair and eyes meet.
The one who didn’t even try to grab me and pulled his arm back.
Pup.
You come out and see
Shririririk—Boom-!
A strong wind blew like an iron gate closing, and the gate disappeared in an instant.
Lee Cheol arrives in a hurry and stretches out his arm in vain.
Huung-
A hand that cuts through the air.
Seeing the hand, Lee Chul muttered.
“Fucked…”
*
Shri-Ri-Ri-Shiong-Shuong-Shuong-Shuong— Bang-!
After rolling and being sucked into the air dozens of times, it fell somewhere with a thump.
‘Sh… Baal…’
Dizzy feeling. The voice echoes in my buzzing head.
…Closely-!
I quickly regained my senses thanks to someone holding my hand as if it was about to explode.
Unknowingly, I opened my eyes, giving strength to the hands that were holding each other.
“Heo Eok-Who… So-hee?”
“Sorry sorry. I shouldn’t have let go – I shouldn’t have let go don’t let go It was okay to let go. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry–“
Then what you see
So-hee, holding onto my hand until it turns white, is crying endlessly.
He muttered frantically with his eyes closed and begged for an apology.
Sorry
Sorry.
Sorry-
“Seonwoo, I’m sorry…”
Oh
Ah-
Chew.
He licked his lips in a moment of rage.
He called out to Sohee, shaking his hands and body.
“Wake. Sohee Min. Stop crying and relax I am not Chae Seon-woo.”
“Hyuk- What? Hib- Heuk- Oh, brother… Hib-! I’m sorry- I’m sorry-“
So-hee wakes up to a different voice than expected.
They still hold my hand tightly and look around while weeping.
“…Black- Seo, Seon-woo-“
“He is outside. I caught it instead.”
“Ah…Then- heeuk- I’m your brother.”
“No. I caught it are you okay. Are you okay. Sohee Min. Calm down once. Calm down.”
I roughly comforted Sohee, who was about to cry again, and untied her clenched hands.
So-hee’s hands were bruised purple as soon as she let go of them because she had squeezed them so tightly.
“After…”
What do you mean by this?
It is a pitch-black night where nothing can be seen.
…Gasp-!
I frowned and looked around to find other kids, but suddenly a hand rushed at me.
As if out of my mind, my trembling hand snatches my hand away.
“Huh-uh-huh…”
Burr—
So-hee, who was breathing like a fit, grabbed my hand and trembled.
As he slipped and was drenched in sweat, his hand went on a rampage, as if it were about to burst.
From the mouth, it makes a squealing sound as if holding back crying.
Looking at So-hee, So-hee cries out as if she is screaming.
“It’s Sohee. You now-“
“I hate- I hate- I hate- I hate —-!!! Please- please- please- please—!”
Eyes that are already half insane.
When I don’t hold her hand, she trembles even more and slams her head into my arm.
“Please…!”
Kwak-
“Ha-ha-ha—!”
As we held each other’s hands, we gasped for breath and finally calmed down a bit.
But still holding my hand, giving me more and more strength.
“It’s Sohee.”
“Yes Yes. Yes. I’m here-“
As if answering my call, with more strength, your trembling hands.
He put his hand on top of it and whispered.
“Your hand is injured. Sohee. Calm.”
“He hurt-“
Hearing my words, he shuddered and then lowered his head.
Don’t get hurt-
Don’t get hurt-
Don’t get hurt-
He repeats my words frantically, and his hands shine with a hum.
The bursting green light is roughly sucked into me and infused with energy.
“Min So-hee!”
So-hee suddenly stops at my call.
Soon, the light that shone in his hand also faded.
“Heh…Hehe- it doesn’t hurt anymore.”
He smiles like an idiot with dead eyes and waves his hand.
“It shouldn’t hurt- hehe…”
Sohee’s hand, still full of strength.
The pupils are out of focus and periodically shake their bodies.
Typical panic state.
He grabbed Sohee by the shoulder and shook it vigorously.
“Wake! Min So-hee!”
Head shaking like crazy up and down.
However, the power that was still in my hand has no intention of losing it.
Match-!
In frustration, he stumbles greatly when he hits him on the cheek.
“Oh, brother-!”
The power that was released at the moment and the voice that became a little clearer.
The staggered Sohee takes a deep breath.
“Haha…”
Definitely calm breathing.
The strength in the gripped hand gradually fades.
Snap-
Moment to let go. Hand grabbing again.
He barely opens his mouth in a trembling voice.
“Oh, if you haven’t let go yet.”
“Your hand is injured. It’s Sohee.”
“Oh, I know, but wait a minute. Please…”
“…Doesn’t it hurt?”
He nodded his head at my question.
“Gwa, it’s okay.”
“Huh… Okay. Can’t you heal yourself?”
“You can’t self-medicate…”
“Then let’s lighten up a bit. Because you’re hurt I won’t let go of your hand ruler…”
Shuk.
Swoop.
The power of the grip that slowly falls away soon.
As if to be relieved, I first hold her, and only then does she hold my hand normally.
After.
So-hee lowers her head and apologizes as she brushes her head in a complex situation in many ways.
“I’m sorry. I was sucked in together because of me. I, I-“
“I said it before, but it’s not your fault.”
As if blocked by something, the view of nothing except for Sohee next to her.
I glanced down at my clasped hands. Hands still shaking.
Just standing there, my mind completely collapsed.
You can move with an anxious mental child
That said, I can’t leave him alone and just wander around and explore.
The state of being completely broken down and dependent on me because of the guilt that I was sucked in because of myself.
Just being able to communicate briefly is a miracle.
First of all, I think he should be able to move.
Where are the other kids
As I look around the room in frustration, a bell rings somewhere.
Dang-!
A clear, clear, bleak bell.
I hugged So-hee, who rushed in fright, and looked around.
Darkness without a slight pretending to be human.
Even if you exhale darkness, it disappears somewhere like smoke.
“Tsk-“
A bell that rings 11 more times in a row while you click your tongue with all your strength.
At that moment, a red quest window popped up in front of me like blood.
After reading the first sentence, swear words come out of my mouth.
“Fuck…”
