Return To Level Up

Chapter 43

Hajin Kang opened her closed eyes.

She was out of the dungeon all of a sudden. The awakening dungeon disappeared, and Ha-jin Kang stood where the dungeon was.

Information flowed in front of his eyes.

[Level 5 has risen.][The Peeking skill evolves into a proud Peeking skill.][The Reaper’s Blessing skill is created.][Technology development skill is created.][All skill proficiency increases.]

Maybe it was because he had dealt with five commander warriors, so five pieces of information appeared.

The thing that Ha-jin Kang paid the most attention to among me was [a proud peek].

It’s a skill created by the evolution of [Peek]. Hajin Kang confirmed it right away.

[A proud peek (A)][Enter the system’s back door and check the information.]

Ha-jin Kang pondered for a moment whether that explanation was different from a peek. At first glance, it seemed that nothing had changed from before.

‘Wait, come in?’

Originally, [Peek] was to peek information through the back door of the system.

‘You go through the back door of the system and check the information?’

It was definitely an explanation worthy of a dignified peek.

To check it first, it seemed like I had to meet another Awakened and use the skill.

Hajin Kang confirmed the following skills.

[Reaper’s Blessing (A)][Attacks the power of curse and death on one’s own or another’s attack. The power of death continuously cuts the stamina until it disappears. Curses added when attacking are bleeding, weakness, [Seal], [Seal], [Seal].

Surprisingly, it was a kind of buff skill that could be given to others. I had never seen it before the return, so I had no idea what the three sealed curses were.

I also checked the next skill.

[Technology development][Skill evolves by satisfying certain conditions.]

It was a really simple explanation. So, it was not clear how to use the skill quickly with this alone.

I was very curious. Evolving skills is a wonderful thing, isn’t it?

As the proficiency of all skills has risen, some additional attribute-imparting skills have been unlocked.

Proficiency didn’t just rise, but it seemed to have risen quite a bit.

Kang Ha-jin took out his cell phone and checked the text.

The dungeon must be in full swing, so the information must have been delivered to the Awakened.

This was an opportunity to level up. It also solves disasters.

Hajin Kang identified the nearby disaster area and moved quickly.

You can learn about the new skills you have acquired while fighting yourself.

* * *

The performances of Dungeon Breaker and the Guardians were great.

The biggest characteristic of this disaster was that the dungeon was created mainly where the Awakened were.

So the more Awakened, the more dungeons were created.

Perhaps there is a synergy effect, the more Awakened, the more dungeons are created per Awakened.

So the place that suffered the most damage was the giant guild.

Unlike the existing dungeons, the dungeons that appeared this time exploded early, so the damage was really great.

It felt like a dungeon that appeared to explode.

So the giant guilds couldn’t even properly solve the disaster that fell on them.

Numerous monsters poured out, and they had to fight fiercely.

In such a situation, the option of entering the dungeon and closing it before the monster appears was impossible except for the first few dungeons.

In the meantime, Dungeon Breaker and the Guardians quickly cleaned up the dungeons that appeared around them and hunted down monsters that appeared elsewhere.

The fight was so fierce that the Awoken who were fighting together were so tired that they couldn’t even speak properly.

Among them, the person who fought the most fiercely and fiercely was by far Hwang Soo-young.

She was followed by Kim Ji-hye and Lee Ji-young.

The three of them swept around the monster noisily, but once they appeared, everyone was startled and backed away.

They fought so fiercely, they were covered in monster blood and body fluids, so they couldn’t even come close.

On the other hand, Hajin Kang walked around really quietly.

If there was a group of Awoken who were fighting monsters, he intervened as if it were permeated and dealt with an appropriate number of monsters, leaving only enough for the Awoken to deal with without a crowd.

Now, he decided that it would be more effective to do so.

However, the giant guilds, large corporations, and the Awakening Administration were deliberately left unattended.

Of course, he didn’t neglect it at all, and the monsters that jumped out of it were organized.

However, since monsters are much more likely to attack Awakened than ordinary people, there were not as many monsters that jumped out than expected.

Because Ha-jin Kang moved so fast, ordinary people couldn’t even find Ha-jin Kang.

Even after the monster was dealt with and disappeared, there were many people who did not know what had happened.

Thanks to Ha-jin Kang, those who survived were relieved, rejoiced, and grateful. But Hajin Kang didn’t do that.

His face was full of dissatisfaction.

‘Isn’t the level too high?’

I don’t know how many monsters have already been killed. Among them, he kept useful corpses in the subspace, but he was spending all his time only moving and fighting as much as possible.

However, the level hardly changed. If you deal with a few more monsters, it would probably go up by 1.

But that wasn’t the only thing Kang Ha-jin wanted. He thought he could raise at least dozens of levels.

But what does this mean?

I knew what the problem was. But there was no answer.

‘The monster is too weak.’

The monster was too weak to fight fiercely. There were no monsters that could be a threat.

Even if the level of the monster was high, it would be helpful, but most of the monsters pouring out now were on the low level.

Leveling up was not easy.

‘First, let’s sort this out to some extent.’

Hajin Kang’s goal was to minimize the damage of disaster.

It was impossible in the first place to solve the catastrophe without any damage at all.

So he had to use it in a way that minimizes damage and gets what he can get.

How long have you been dealing with monsters like that? By the time Ha-jin Kang judged that he had run out of stamina and started to run out of breath, some sort of tidying up was over.

Now, just clean up the big guild side, the big company side, and the Awakening Management Office side and you are done.

At least in Seoul.

Hajin Kang checked the text.

It was not a text message from the Awakening Management Office, but a text message from Myung In-hyuk.

During that short time, he was already running some kind of information network, doing what he did.

So, he was constantly updating information about dangerous areas, areas with a lot of monsters, and areas where the subjugation was finished.

There seemed to be no more dangerous places in Myung In-hyuk’s text message. The rest will have to be arranged by other Awoken.

‘Then I must go get the most important thing to eat in this disaster.’

The first catastrophe seems over, but it’s not over yet.

The level has only risen by one, but maybe if you deal with the remaining real disaster, you will be able to raise a few more levels.

Hajin Kang headed to the Awakened Management Office.

There were quite a few Awakened people residing in the Awakened Management Office. This is because the management office has a lot of work to deal with by mobilizing the awakened person, so the management office selects the awakened person.

Of course, high-level awakeners all fall into large guilds or conglomerates.

Awakened people in the middle belong to the management office. No matter how much the management agency is, they are not interested in low-level Awakeneds.

Anyway, that’s why a lot of dungeons were opened in the management office, and they exploded all at once, and it was a mess.

As soon as Kang Ha-jin arrived at the management office, he cleaned up the monsters he could see.

There weren’t any great monsters, so the arrangement itself wasn’t a big deal.

However, I won’t clean up all the monsters here either.

Because the Awakeneds belonging to the management office had work to do while they dealt with the remaining monsters.

Hajin Kang roughly cleaned up the monsters and went inside the building.

It seemed impossible to use the facilities normally as the buildings were crumbling and collapsing.

It will probably take a lot of money and time to reorganize this place.

‘But the management office has a lot of money.’

In the meantime, the amount of money he has earned from the Awakeneds will be considerable, so he will quickly restore his original form even if he pours out taxes.

Ha-jin Kang went straight into the broken building and soon arrived at the destination.

A huge portal stood there.

All other dungeons have exploded, but this dungeon has not exploded and remains here.

No one was able to confirm whether it exploded or not. When the other dungeons started to explode, everyone was busy running away.

So before Kang Ha-jin returned, the problem grew.

When this portal exploded, the Awakened Management Office was also completely destroyed.

Fortunately, the data was backed up, so it could be retrieved, but all non-digital data was blown away.

Before the return, the monsters that jumped out of this dungeon were handled by Ji Chang-gi and Jo Won-young. Those who hit Ha-jin Kang in the back of the head.

Of course, they didn’t fight alone, they fought with a group of Awoken led by each of them, but they were the ones who made the biggest contribution anyway.

It was the fight against the monster that came out of this dungeon that started Ji Chang-ki and Jo Won-young to stand out in earnest.

But now that won’t happen.

Hajin Kang will take care of that monster. Even before leaving the dungeon.

The monster will disappear without knowing whether it was there or not.

Hajin Kang took a deep breath and entered the dungeon.

Now it’s time to catch the boss.

* * *

A vast plain stretched out so much that the horizon could be seen.

The portal stood in the middle of the plain.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

And in the distance, something like a huge mountain wriggled.

That was the monster of this dungeon and the boss of the first disaster.

I wrote it from a peek.

[Monster of Chaos][Level: 350][Attribute: Dark][Health: 1204522, Magic Power: 150000][Death Fog, Vampire, Erosion][A monster sent by Marbas to break through a passage with Earth. The power of Marvas is weakly imbued. When all the passage opening work is completed, it is set to build Marbas’ realm on Earth through self-destruction.]

Hajin Kang saw that and stopped.

“What else is this…?”

The explanation below seemed to be the effect of the proudly peeking skill.

But the effect was not a problem. The content was the problem.

“Marbas?”

Marbas is the one who killed Ha-jin Kang just before returning. The king of the last dungeon, and the guy who made a contract with the people who hit the back of the head.

‘Is that a monster sent by Marbas?’

All dungeons on Earth are his own, Marvas said himself. Of course, I’m not sure if that’s true.

Still, he would not have lied to Ha-jin Kang, who was just before he died. Even if he exaggerated with a lust for show.

So you don’t have to worry about that.

But there was nothing after that.

Now, he was piercing a passage with Earth. And he said that if he breaks through all the passages, he builds up the realm of Marbas through self-destruction. also on Earth.

This is a dungeon. Strictly speaking, it is not Earth.

Hajin Kang recalled his memories before his return. Did that guy commit suicide then? He shook his head. no. At that time, he just ran wild and was beaten to death by the Awoken.

Of course, it left a lot of damage, but it did not establish the territory of Marbas.

‘It means that you failed even before the regression.’

And that means it’s going to fail again.

Hajin Kang thought that it might not be Marbas who caused the first disaster, but maybe it was the one trying to protect the Earth.

Suddenly, Gaia came to mind.

Hajin Kang’s feet, which had stopped before, began to move.

For now, we need to get rid of that monster. Before we drilled a passage to Earth.
