Return To Level Up

Chapter 78

Hajin Kang’s second goal was a dungeon that appeared in Busan.

In this dungeon raid, Ha-jin Kang had two goals.

One was the Changwon Dungeon we just dealt with. There, his first goal was to slay the three dragons and obtain the items they guarded.

It finished very nicely.

Instead of dragons, I dealt with demons and found items.

The second is to deal with a group of cloud eagles in the Busan dungeon.

The purpose was to level up.

The cloud eagle is a very difficult monster to fight, but it was a monster that could be easily dealt with if you knew exactly how to use it.

Moreover, the level was extremely high, so it was a monster that could be called a lump of experience.

The reason why the Busan dungeon was placed second is because the cloud eagle did not appear immediately, but was a monster that appeared only when certain conditions were met.

I went to the Changwon Dungeon first because I had to deal with the dragon first to reduce the damage of the awakened and prevent items that might be important from getting into other people’s hands.

After achieving these two goals, from then on, I was planning to support the precarious places based on the situation.

If there is no such place, go into a normal dungeon.

While Ha-jin Kang was moving from Changwon to Busan, he checked three items obtained from the Changwon dungeon.

[Broken Spear][The first piece that makes up a single spear. It is sealed. To unlock the seal, you need human blood connected to the system. 0/1000]

It was like this. The description of the rest of the items was the same.

I don’t know what that number meant, but it didn’t seem like it would take one or two sacrifices to fill the whopping number 1000.

‘Then what did you do then?’

There was no guarantee that the item that appeared before the regression was identical to this one. No, in many ways, it was most likely a lower version of this.

However, that doesn’t change the need for the blood of the Awakened.

‘It could have been solved without having to kill it.’

For example, donating blood.

If you collect blood from countless Awakeneds, wouldn’t it be a big deal to unseal about three items?

Gathering the Awakened Blood won’t give you a strange look.

What would anyone say when it comes to research purposes? If you pay the proper price, you can get whatever you want.

Because there are not only strong Awoken in the world.

‘Maybe the blood of the Strong Awoken fills that number even more.’

It doesn’t matter though. If you can’t do it with quality, you can do it with quantity.

Hajin Kang took out three items and put them together. I was thinking of it, but they stuck together like magnets.

“It’s embarrassing.”

I thought it wouldn’t stick if I didn’t open the seal. But I’ll stick with it as if I’ve been waiting like this.

Hajin Kang checked the item again.

[Spear of Marbas][A spear made from parts of Marbas’ ribs, fangs, and back leather. The power of Marbas resides. It is sealed. To unlock the seal, you need human blood connected to the system. 0/3000]

“It’s just being brought together.”

Anyway, the results didn’t change at all. It’s still sealed, and you’ll need to unlock it to use the spear properly.

Ha-jin Kang wanted to check what kind of power was sealed, but it was impossible to confirm up to that point.

It’s like being stuck in a wall.

It must have been something to do with Marvass, but to confirm it, it seemed that the seal had to be released.

So while I was researching the window, I arrived at the Busan Dungeon.

The Busan dungeon was much more crowded than the Changwon dungeon.

There were a lot of Awakened people who came in and out, and the number of people who gathered to earn money from the Awoken was huge.

As the rumors about this dungeon spread around, more and more Awakened people were gathering.

Even the relatively weak Awakeners who had been sneaking around in the regular dungeons were all coming here and in and out of the dungeon.

Rumors spread that there were a lot of weak monsters in the Busan dungeon.

It wasn’t just that he was weak, he was a monster that was very helpful in leveling up while being weak.

Besides, it was the first monster to appear.

No one knows yet what the value of the by-products of the first monster is.

It was a kind of gamble that could be a slap or a jackpot.

Gambling psychology was also added to this, and most of the awakening people who were active near Busan flocked to this place.

Hajin Kang went through the bustling crowd to the dungeon.

There was no procedure for her to register or confirm. I wanted to do it, but there were too many Awoken, so it was impossible to confirm.

So, the Awakened Management Agency couldn’t even recover the monster’s by-products.

Even now, the Awoken were constantly entering the dungeon. Also, a similar number of Awoken were coming out of the dungeon.

Everyone was carrying a sack or bag full of something, and carrying it, they scattered all over the place, and then immediately reappeared and entered the dungeon.

It was indescribably crowded as the process was repeated over and over again.

Kang Ha-jin was not too embarrassed by the scene.

This was almost the same situation before his return. He didn’t come and check it himself, but he was able to see it on the broadcast screen because it was so hot at the time.

The appearance now is very similar to the scene I saw on TV back then.

Hajin Kang entered the dungeon mixed with those awakened people.

A breath of fresh air permeated my lungs.

As soon as Kang Ha-jin entered, he reflexively looked up from the sky.

The sky was full of puffy clouds.

Although there was no sun, it was full of light, and the cumulus clouds floating in the sky were creating a truly impressive landscape.

Hajin Kang strengthened his eyesight using magical powers. Then the distant clouds magnified as if they were seen right in front of them.

“I knew it.”

That cloud itself was a cloud eagle.

If you just look up from the bottom, it looks like a puffy cloud, but it’s actually not a cloud, it’s a monster.

An eagle made of clouds was floating in the sky.

It looked like a real cloud because several birds were clustered together.

Hajin Kang lowered his head and grasped the progress of the hunt this time.

The monsters here were monsters of various animal forms.

There were many different kinds of animals. They were weaker than expected, so they easily hunted even low-level awakeners.

The number was so great that even though the many Awoken were spread all the way to the depths of the dungeon, they were all dealing with several at the same time.

There were corpses of dead animals and monsters all over the place.

Naturally, the by-products and manastones that looked useful were corpses that had been meticulously omitted.

Seeing the awakenings excitedly hunting, it seemed that the time was soon for the cloud eagle to move.

The condition for the cloud eagle to move is that there are a lot of monster corpses inside the dungeon.

Because Cloud Eagle is made of clouds, physical attacks do not work.

Basically, the lowest instinct of a monster is to attack the Awoken.

The reason the cloud eagle comes down is to absorb the corpse, but once it comes down, it unconditionally attacks the awakened.

Cloud Eagle’s attack is to condense and release energy.

So, in the vicinity of the cloud eagle, quite powerful thunderbolts are poured down countless times.

In addition, powerful wind and water-based attacks are also performed.

Of course, it consumes a lot of mana, but it could be refilled as much as needed by drawing energy from the corpse on the floor.

Before the return, there were countless Awakened people there.

Once knocked down, the cloud eagle rushes in and sucks the energy.

And that energy becomes magical power to attack other awakeners again.

A vicious cycle is created.

‘I must have been a little late.’

Hajin Kang nodded as he saw the awakened people almost drenched in madness.

There were a lot more monster corpses than expected.

Now is the time for the cloud eagle to descend.

In any case, the cloud eagle must come down to attack. And when you catch all the cloud eagles, the way to attack this dungeon will open.

Hajin Kang took a deep breath and prepared for battle.

I’d like to get all the Awoken out of here, but that was impossible.

If I tell them to leave, will they go out with ease?

It’s probably lucky if you don’t run into it because you’re drenched in madness.

So the first attack had no choice but to hit.

Cloud Eagle’s first attack is usually a lightning strike.

Hajin Kang has the [Lightning Rod] skill, so he can act without being affected.

Cloud Eagle’s weakness was fire and wind.

Before the regression, a lot of people were hit by this before they figured it out.

You can’t just complain, and you can’t just use the wind.

Fire and wind had to enter at the same time, and both attributes had to have a lot of magical power to be effective.

When the magical fire and wind sweep the Cloud Eagle, its cloud body scatters.

In the center of the scattered body, there is a core that makes up a cloud eagle, and you just have to destroy it.

When there is a body, the order is important because the core does not hurt no matter how much attack is poured.

The cloud eagle’s core contains the power of space-time distortion, and the moment that power stopped was when it created the cloud body again.

So normally, physical force does not work at all, but when the body disappears, it is possible to instantaneously exercise physical force on the core.

Ha-jin Kang recalled the strategy of the cloud eagle like that in his head and raised the tension.

Slowly, the cloud eagle seemed to come down.

If we just let it go, everyone would be too useless, so it was necessary to raise awareness.

Hajin Kang exclaimed with magic in his voice.

“A monster is coming down from above! be careful!”

Hajin Kang’s shouts spread throughout the dungeon.

Everyone looked up in surprise.

And I could see huge chunks of clouds coming down.

“What, what is that…!”

It was spectacular to see them gliding down with their wings made of clouds spread wide. And it was very threatening.

The speed of the cloud eagle swooping down was incredible.

However, thanks to the nervousness and preparation in advance, everyone was able to get out of the place.

Bubbly bubbly!

Cloud eagles crashed to the ground. However, it spread flat on the floor and then returned to its original shape.

The Awoken who saw it looked tired.

And at that moment, the cloud eagles blew out lightning all at once.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Don’t fall for it!

The whole world was submerged in a sea of ​​lightning.

Most Awakeners had no choice but to stiffen their bodies when they were struck by such a lightning attack at close range.

The Awakened, whose bodies were stiff, had a gloomy expression on their faces.

And the awakened body moving barely moved and poured their skills towards the Cloud Eagle.

When fierce battles were taking place everywhere, Ha-jin Kang was already wielding his hand vigorously in the midst of a flock of cloud eagles.

He gave one hand the fire property and the other hand the wind property.

And he vigorously swung his hands alternately.

When the fire was sprayed and blown with the wind, the cloud eagle’s body was hooked and peeled off.

Destroying the exposed core with a kick will end one.

Hajin Kang swung his hands and feet almost mechanically.

The cloud eagle disappeared so quickly and easily that the intimidation when it appeared was overshadowed.

The cloud eagle, who had only instincts left, flocked to Ha-jin Kang despite being hit like that.

And the Awakened Awoken who escaped from the gap were watching the wonderful scene from afar.

“Wow, great.”

“Who is that person? Are you famous?”

“No, am I seeing this for the first time?”

“Isn’t it a person raised in a famous guild?”

Everyone watched as Ha-jin Kang was fighting.

His hands and feet were constantly moving, and the organic movement was so beautiful.

Suddenly, fire and wind poured out from Kang Ha-jin’s feet.

He was pouring fire, wind and blows sequentially, applying fire and wind alternately to his hands and feet.

The speed at which the cloud eagle was disappearing was getting faster and faster.

And soon there were no more cloud eagles left in the dungeon.

The awakened could not breathe properly and stood as if a mouse were dead, looking at Ha-jin Kang standing in the middle of the scattered clouds.

Suddenly, Ha-jin Kang raised his head and looked up at the sky.

The awakened people who were watching also reflexively raised their heads.

“Ugh!”

“Hey, what is that!”

Everyone was astonished. A huge cloud eagle was coming down from the sky as huge as all the cloud eagles he had ever killed combined.

Hajin Kang looked up at the giant cloud eagle with his cool eyes and muttered inwardly.

‘Is this unexpected?’
