48. Ruins Deep Part 2
“The easiest monster?”
Ergan shouted with a surprised face.
The boss monster is so strong that it cannot be compared to the monsters you have fought so far.
“If he puts his mind to it, he should be able to call out all the monsters he fought all the way here…”
“That’s the easiest thing I’ve ever seen.”
“Isn’t that irony?”
Not only Ergan, but everyone else shouted in bewilderment.
Being the ruler of the dungeon, saying that the strongest monster in the dungeon is the easiest. It was a situation that made no common sense, but
“I can handle it alone.”
Seunghyun Kang smiled and moved forward. Along with saying that it doesn’t need anyone’s help either.
“You’re going to catch Ho alone…?”
“That’s not a junk mob or a rare monster, it’s a boss monster!”
“It doesn’t matter.”
It doesn’t matter if it’s a normal monster, a rare monster, or a boss monster.
“It’s important that he’s a black magician with tremendous dark magic.”
“You say you have a way to defeat that monster. Even alone.”
“yes. I alone am enough.”
Seunghyun Kang replied with a confident face.
‘It would normally be impossible. But if it’s Kang Seung-hyun… I might do it.’
Thinking of what Kang Seung-hyun has done so far, I thought that he would show a miracle again this time. After thinking for a moment, Ergan gathered his heart and opened his mouth.
“Then I’ll leave everything to you.”
I decided to pass all the rewards I get from catching the boss monster to Kang Seung-hyun.
“Stay away.”
[Summons Freea’s crossbow.]
Freea’s crossbow appeared in Seunghyun Kang’s hand.
“Sir, is that it?”
“Yes, that.”
Kim Ho-jung seemed to have noticed.
“I’m saving it for now.”
An arrow that can be used only once a day, but can shoot tremendous divine power.
‘The arrow of the holy water of dawn.’
“Stupid things. The name of this body is…!”
It was the moment when the black magician shouted his name and tried to use his skill.
“load.”
Seunghyun Kang pulled the trigger at the same time as he loaded it
.
The arrow flew toward the black magician, spreading powerful divine power.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!”
The black magician struggled in pain. The arrow didn’t even reach his body, but he was overwhelmed by the divine power coming from the arrow.
‘Performance sure and good.’
The arrow of the Holy Water of Dawn can inflict more damage the more the opponent has dark magic. Truly the final weapon of the black magician.
‘Even if it’s a boss monster, if the source of its power is black magic…’
It can never withstand the arrow of the holy water of dawn.
“This can’t happen…”
The black magician tried to do something. However, even if he tried to gather black magic and use the skill, the arrow of dawn erased everything.
“No…Kuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!”
Faaaaaa-!
And finally, when the arrow penetrated the body, the black magician was enveloped in pure white light and disappeared.
“No, what the hell is this…”
“Oh my God…”
“What did I see?”
The other party members opened their mouths and just stared blankly at the sight of the black magician disappearing.
“I heard that your divine power is definitely at the bottom…”
“Bah, what is that skill?”
[Retrieve Pria’s arrows]
[Retrieve the arrows of the holy water of dawn.]
When Kang Seung-hyeon activated the skill, the arrows of the holy water of dawn returned to the inventory.
[Recovery successful!]
[Recovered arrows of the holy water of dawn.]
“I can only use this once a day anyway.”
In order to use the recovered arrow again, you have to wait until the sun rises the next day.
It’s great, but the downside is that you can’t use it often.
“Is that a skill that gathers and explodes one’s own divine power at once?”
“Ho, maybe that guy’s divine power isn’t at the bottom, but he’s stocking up on it…” “
Then, the divine power that he just showed is the real divine power possessed by Healer Kang Seung-hyun?”
Since Kang Seung-hyun did not explain in detail, the party members started to have a big misunderstanding.
“How can a person have such divine power?”
“Are you human? Are you really not a god? If not…”
“Maybe it’s the apostle saint who made a contract with God.”
Everyone mistook the holy power from the arrow of the holy water of dawn for Kang Seung-hyeon’s holy power.
“Maybe we’re acting with a really great person…”
Ergan muttered gravely. I don’t know if that’s an illusion.
-“Since the boss monster is dead… the dungeon will soon disappear.”
“It will.”
Now, the entrance portal connecting the Ruins Dungeon and Harkat Hill must have disappeared.
“Shall we draw the escape magic circle now?”
Sorceress Shuire hit the floor with her staff and said.
“It will take time for the dungeon to disappear anyway… Why don’t you take a closer look at it before drawing it?”
“okay? Okay then!”
At Aile’s words, Shuire nodded.
“Well, it ended earlier than expected.”
“It’s thanks to teacher Kang Seung-hyun!”
Originally, he was supposed to be fighting a tough fight with the boss monster… but that guy was hit by an arrow and disappeared.
“We have plenty of time… let’s investigate the boss room individually.”
Everyone nodded at Ergan’s words.
“As everyone knows, the items you find in the boss room are up to you. There is no need to distribute it among party members.”
It is important to defeat monsters and protect the village, but it is also important to go around the dungeon and find items that can be used as money. Adventurers are workers, not heroes.
“There will be items stored by the boss monster. The dungeon may disappear, so search as quickly as possible.”
“All right!”
The party members scattered throughout the boss room and started searching.
“Wow… look at this altar.”
Tina muttered as she inspected the altar.
“Aww the dried blood on the altar… how many sacrifices have you made?”
“You can’t bring something like an altar. Take care of these things when you have time to look at them.”
Kim Ho-jung took a candlestick to light the fire. The design is also gorgeous, so it will be quite expensive.
“If you look under the altar… it looks like there’s something in it.”
Kang Seung-hyeon looked under the altar while drinking a stamina potion.
less so
As I fumbled with my hand, I could see that the bottom of the altar was a drawer-like structure.
“There’s something like a drawer over here.”
“Oh open?”
“It opens.”
Originally, it was standard practice for the boss monster to seal this with powerful magic. Since he is a black magician, he must have sealed it with black magic, but
“It seems that the arrow of the Holy Water of Dawn that I shot earlier even loosened the seal.”
“Kyaha~ That was amazing earlier!”
It seems that all the powerful holy power emitted by the arrow of the holy water of dawn has been erased.
“Still, it’s the final boss, isn’t it too much to end it with one special move? You should give me time to introduce myself.”
Kim Ho-jung giggled and laughed.
“It’s strange that people who use special moves at the last minute.”
“So is it!”
Kim Ho-jung nodded and moved to another place.
drooling.
Seunghyun Kang opened the open drawer. The item inside the drawer was a large marble with a mysterious energy.
‘Is this… an orb?’
An orange orb the size of a baseball. Just looking at it, it was not an ordinary item.
[Orb of □□ □□□]
-[Unknown]
For normal items, detailed information appears when you put them in your inventory, but you cannot see the information for some items.
‘I don’t know what kind of effect this item has.’
In this case, you can find detailed information by visiting a relic appraiser or using the item appraisal skill. However, the artifact appraiser in Hind Village was a con artist, so he didn’t really want to go there.
‘It can’t be helped.’
Seunghyun Kang used the [Eye of Observation] on the orb. If you use [Eye of Observation] at an item, you can see information that is not revealed like an emotion skill.
Jigsaw Jigsaw!
However, it consumes too much stamina and only gives very simple information, so I don’t use it often.
In fact, half of his stamina was gone, so Kang had to drink a potion.
‘As expected, I can’t do it twice.’
Kang Seung-hyun checked the item information, hoping that someday the item appraisal skill would come out.
[Kirkarastel’s Orb]
[Powerful magic resistance]
[Powerful magic defense]
[Others unknown]
‘Does magic resistance have magic defense?’
The name of the orb is Kirkarashtel’s Orb. It was an item that lowered the damage of magic attacks and increased magic resistance.
‘It’s not a normal item in terms of design and ability, it’s the least rare item.’
[Achievement Achievement!]
The moment you put the orb in your inventory, an achievement achievement message appeared.
‘I didn’t think of this.’
[Accomplishment Achievement: Item Slot]
[Achieved when possessing 3 items of a rare grade or higher.]
Following Freea’s Crossbow, Holy Water of Dawn, Kirkarashtel’s Orb. As a result of possessing the three items, the achievement was achieved.
‘What is an item slot?’
The next message window flew in without pressing the reward receipt button.
[System (item slot)]
[※From now on, you can use the ‘item slot’ system in the status window.] [
If you put an equipment item in the item slot, you can receive the effect even if you don’t wear it.]
“Oh.. ..”
A very useful system has been unlocked. This is because the effect cannot be received while the item is in the inventory.
‘I could lose it if I just carry it around, but now I don’t have to worry about that.’
Kang Seung-hyun immediately checked the item slot.
[Item slot]
[1: None]
[2: None]
[3: None]
The initial slot for item slots was 3, perhaps because it was unlocked with 3 rare items.
[※ An item slot extension ticket item appears in roulette.]
As with the inventory, an extension ticket drawn from the roulette was needed to increase the number of slots.
Of course, there is no way to give it gently, and it will come out with a low probability.
[Item Slot]
[1: Vitality Brooch +1]
[2: Kirkarashtel’s Orb]
[3: None]
Kang Seung-hyun registered the Kirkarashtel Orb and the Vitality Brooch that he got this time.
No more worries about being pickpocketed.
‘Because this is an achievement that can be unlocked by simply putting 3 rare items in the inventory…’
This achievement can be unlocked by simply borrowing a rare item from someone else.
‘Kim Ho-jeong’s bloodstone was also a rare item, right?’
Bloodstone, which craves blood received from the Adventurer’s Guild, is also a rare item or higher.
‘If you lend me mine, Kim Ho-jung will also break the achievement? Freea’s crossbow is an exclusive item, so it shouldn’t be.’
I still have two, so I just need to get one more.
It’s like it’s almost broken.
“Kim Ho-jung, come here for a second…”
Kang Seung-hyeon tried to call Kim Ho-jung to inform him.
“Sensei Gagang… I suddenly… For some reason I feel really sleepy…?”
dump!
At that time, Kim Ho-jeong, who had staggered toward me, fell helplessly to the floor.
“Mr. Kim Ho-jeong?”
He hurriedly ran and grabbed him, but Kim Ho-jung did not move.
I tried shaking it, but there was no sign of waking up.
‘I’m not dead… Are you sleeping?’
It seems that he fell asleep due to abnormal condition.
When Kang Seung-hyun looked around,
“….”
“….”
Not only Kim Ho-jeong, but also other party members were unconscious on the floor.
“Am I the only one who is fine?”
Kang Seung-hyun left Kim Ho-jung on the floor and got up.
‘Is it the work of the boss monster? I should have knocked it down earlier?’
Kang Seung-hyeon examined the remains of the black magician. Because it was blown away by an arrow of the Holy Water of Dawn, only a piece of cloth remained.
‘…doesn’t it have a nucleus?’
Originally, when the dungeon boss died, the core would drop, but there was nothing in the remains of the black magician.
In other words, this is not a boss monster.
‘Then what I just caught… was an alter ego.’
That would explain what happened now. The body is probably somewhere in the boss room.
‘The only ones in the boss room right now are me, Kim Ho-jung, and…’
Ergan Pati, who collapsed on the floor.
“Then one of these guys…”
Kang Seung-hyeon took out a crossbow. And he pulled the trigger at the people who were lying on the floor.
“That’s the real boss.”
Cucumber! Cucumber!
A bright yellow arrow was fired from the crossbow. It is a stamina arrow that replenishes stamina instead of losing stamina when hit.
“Sorry for the sudden arrow, but it was a stamina arrow.”
Of course, people who see it for the first time will think that it just blows an arrow.
“Even if you get hit, it doesn’t take any damage. Of course, people who are asleep don’t even know they were hit by an arrow.”
In fact, others just got hit by arrows, but
shah!
Only one guy got up and fired an arrow.
“But if there is a guy who wakes up alone while others fell asleep due to the power of the boss monster…”
“…Sheesh.”
Ergan Party’s Isle.
Ah was the only one who fired the arrow.
“That guy must be the boss monster.”
