Auto Hunting With My Clones - Chapter 59
< To China (2) >
“China?”
-Yes, because China is so vast, there are so many portals. Of course, there are many hunters as well.
“Hmm… wouldn’t it cause friction if there were too many people?”
-The dungeon I knew was not the Qin Shi Huang’s Tomb.
Tomb of Qin Shi Huang.
It has been a famous historical site since ancient times as the tomb of Emperor Qin Shi Huang.
“I think the Tomb of Qin Shi Huang will be very popular just by hearing the name.”
– They say it’s not popular. There is a field around the dungeon portal in the Tomb of Emperor Qin Shi Huang, and hunters avoid it because the monster by-products from there are trash, so the profit is not good compared to the difficulty of the attack. Even if you go through the field and enter the portal with the dungeon, the situation inside is similar.
“Ah….”
-So, I think you can get A rank in a pleasant environment. How do you feel?
“great. Even if the price of by-products is low anyway, if we get A grade, we can earn 500 billion won. I’ll go there. But what about A-class monsters?”
-It’s a bugbear.
bugbear.
A monster with the meaning of monster bear, it was literally a monster with the size and power of a monster.
No matter how strong it is, it will turn out to be A-class.
However, when Sang-woo heard that he was a bugbear, he felt a surge of sympathy.
“That’s perfect. This emotional feeling that seems like it would be easy for some reason. It’s good.”
– Haha yes. Hunter, then, when should we set the departure schedule?
“Please do it as quickly as possible.”
-Yes, I understand.
After finishing the call, Raven asked.
-okay. Which dungeon was decided?
“I heard that there is a dungeon in the tomb of Qin Shi Huang in China. I haven’t heard exactly about the dungeon environment, but since it’s a bugbear, I think it’s okay. You’ll know when you go.”
-It’s China…
Raven slightly hardened her complexion at the word China.
‘It was a country with a sword castle…’
I had bad memories with him.
Then the hamburgers came out.
The amount of envelopes was considerable, perhaps because the menu was swept.
“Oh, that’s a lot.”
-No problem.
The hamburger envelopes came to mind.
Then everyone’s eyes turned to it.
“Look over there honey.”
“Is it telekinesis? that’s interesting.”
“Wow, I wish I had that ability. It seems comfortable.”
People mistook the technique Raven used for telekinesis.
To be precise, it wasn’t telekinesis, but rather the use of swordsmanship.
Leaving behind everyone’s whispers, Raven hurried on his way.
-Let’s go.
“yes. Let’s go.”
Raven opened the door of the fast food restaurant with light steps, as if excited, and stepped outside.
For some reason, Sang-woo felt that such a master was cute (?).
“let’s go together!” * * *
A few days later.
Kang Jun-mo must have been very hungry for hunting, so he quickly finished preparing for the hunting expedition.
“Wow, Agent. You are really fast.”
“No big deal. In fact, after Hunter stopped hunting, work suddenly cut back, so our staff were worried that they might be fired. Then, when Hunter came in, I was able to finish it quickly thanks to my energy and hard work. I think having a break like this from time to time
adds tension to the work atmosphere and is good. ha ha ha.”
“Ah, that’s what happened… I’ll have to go hunting more often in the future.”
“Yes, but Mr. Sword Seeker, or Mr. Raven, is stateless, so it was a bit difficult to start. Fortunately, when I looked it up, there were records of my activities during the cataclysm, so I was able to solve the immigration problem.”
“You must have had such a hard time. But Master will continue to accompany me anyway, so why not just naturalize his nationality as Korean?”
“Um… If Mr. Raven is okay, I will look into the issue of nationality.”
“yes. Shall we start at once?”
So they went straight to China.
The members were Sang-woo, his alter ego Kang Jun-mo, three managers, and Raven.
The dungeon guide was hired locally.
“It is also close. I took a little nap, but it’s already arrived.”
Since it is a nearby country, the flight did not take long.
After getting off at Xi’an Xianyang International Airport, they immediately departed for Xi’an City, Shaanxi Province, China, where the Tomb of Emperor Qin Shi Huang is located.
As for the vehicle, we shared several Humvees that Kang Jun-mo had borrowed from the local community.
“Yeah- I like the car, so it really feels like going on an expedition.”
“Haha, it looks good, but the function is quite good.”
“How are you? Are you in the mood for a trip?”
-Feel so good.
road by car.
The road was very clean and well maintained.
The reason is that China has been fairly good at coping with cataclysms.
Numerous Awakeners were born from the population of 1.3 billion, and the Chinese government was able to mobilize such Awakeners to defeat the monsters with mighty military power.
Therefore, now China was running at its peak along with the United States.
“Everyone has arrived. I’ll meet my guide here and we’ll go together.”
I rode on a well-traveled road, and when I arrived at an area called Lim Dong-hyeon, Kang Jun-mo stopped the car.
It was a meeting place to meet with the guide.
Maybe it was because the field where the monsters appeared was right in front of me, so there were no people around and there were many abandoned buildings.
Some time after Kang Jun-mo called the guide, the guide arrived on a motorcycle.
It was a slender female hunter wearing a leather jacket and hot pants that looked like monster leather.
She was carrying a large bag on her back.
“hello. My name is Sonmi, a B-class hunter who has been assigned as a guide.”
“Yes hello. Excuse me, but are you Korean?”
“no. I am native to China.”
“Ah, I thought you were Korean because you speak Korean so well.”
“thank you. Then shall we go right away?”
“Yes, you are. Agent, I’ll see you later.”
“yes. We will be monitoring in real time.”
Cars and motorcycles parked there, and managers and Kang Jun-mo waited there.
The video shooting equipment, which is a broadcasting equipment, was purchased separately this time to prove that I caught an A-class monster.
After buying it, it turned out to be useful, so they planned to monitor the situation here in real time through the video shooting equipment broadcasting equipment tied to alter ego No. 1.
“Does the agent look good?”
– Yes, it looks good.
“Then let’s go. See you later.”
After briefly testing the equipment, the rest of Sang-woo’s party, who were actual members of the raiding party, moved on foot.
As they walked, Sonmi explained the instructions step by step.
“This is the tomb of Qin Shi Huang, which was historically famous. Even before the cataclysm, it was said to be the largest among single tombs, and tourists did not stop visiting.”
“The tomb of Qin Shi Huang is also the largest among the tombs. In fact, I went to the largest dungeon among the cemeteries called Catacombs a while ago.”
“Oh really? So, has anyone ever done a Titan Skeleton Raid?”
“yes that’s right.” “Oh my gosh!”
Sonmi made a fuss about watching the video live, saying it was so cool.
They say compliments make people dance.
Her uplifting words instantly made the atmosphere friendly.
Sangwoo laughed inwardly.
‘I thought you already knew who I was through your agent. The friendliness of that guide is also very good.’
The time to flatter (?) is passing.
Words of caution came out of Sonmi’s mouth.
“Almost everything around here is a field, but there are a lot of monsters from the dungeon portal located in the Tomb of Emperor Qin Shi Huang, so it’s more of a headache. The Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum in the field is engulfed in a strange energy. So the terracotta warriors appear as monsters, but there are too many of them, so if you get surrounded,
it’s the end. So, you have to move as quickly as possible to break through.”
The surroundings of Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s tomb seemed to have changed like the catacombs in France.
Understanding the environment, Sang-woo nodded.
“Aha, I’ll be careful. Other than that, are there any other precautions?”
“Bugbear is in a dungeon located inside a portal. Unlike here, the dungeon is a jungle. So, various animal type monsters pop out. In particular, there are many monsters with deadly poison, so you just have to be careful.”
“all right.”
While we were talking about this and that, Sonmi raised her hand and clenched her fist, signaling to stop.
-This is the beginning of the field. Be careful as monsters pop out.
She conveyed her intentions with what appeared to be skill.
Sang-woo also responded with his messenger skill.
-Yes, I understand. So from now on, I’ll take the lead. The guide only gives directions. Master, let’s go.
– I’m following you.
By the time Sang-woo and Raven’s alter egos took the lead.
Sonmi, slightly pushed back, was sending a message through her smart goggles.
-[S]: The decoy has completed entering the field.
-[S]: As a special feature, the sword seeker is also accompanied. Please confirm.
-[K]: That’s even better. There is no change in plan. It goes.
-[S]: OK
* * *
Terracotta Warriors.
As a type of terracotta (fired with clay), there was an underground tunnel called the Terracotta Army around the Tomb of Emperor Qin Shi Huang.
It was full of soldiers, warriors, chariots, horses, officers, acrobats, musicians, and other terracotta warriors made of mud.
‘The Terracotta Warriors are people who were buried with Qin Shi Huang.’
The terracotta warriors were so realistic that ghost stories circulated.
And is it because of that joke?
After the Cataclysm, these clay dolls came to life and began to animate.
It has become a monster.
As it was made of soil and sand, its durability was weak, but it was very difficult to regenerate quickly and because there were an enormous number of them.
However, to Sang-woo, they were just clay dolls.
Passasak – A
whirlwind with sharp anticipation blew away the terracotta warriors.
And the whirlwind wasn’t just one.
Shoot
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa dozens
of
whirlwinds spewed out in all directions, sweeping away the terracotta warriors.
The terracotta warriors were pulverized into powder by the aura carried by the whirlwind and flew away. All that was left was dust.
‘This is Class C?’
Sonmi doubted her eyes.
It was a power that was hard to believe for her, who had watched the Catacomb Raid video not too long ago.
‘Have you developed in that short time? No, his power wasn’t recorded properly in that video.’
She judged that Sang-woo was hiding his powers during the Catacomb Raid.
‘Maybe it will end more easily…’
while Sonmi made that judgment.
Sang-woo was excitedly blowing away the terracotta warriors.
“and-! So much fun!”
Sang-woo screamed as he made a blast and sent it off.
Although it was created by the person himself, the blast wave was very flashy and cool even in his own eyes.
Besides, it was even powerful.
If you use the vacuum slash there, most of the Stormbringer’s sword techniques, such as the sonic boom’s wind, could be used as a wide-area weapon.
Wouldn’t it be thrilling to blow away several terracotta warriors with such skills in one shot?
‘This is the taste.’
Other biomorphic monsters splattered blood and showed internal organs when killed, but Terracotta Warriors only flew dust, so it was like catching a monster in a game.
Is that why?
Hee-yeol captured Sang-woo’s whole body as if he was playing a game.
In addition, there is a feeling of hitting that could not be filled in online games.
That thrill excited Sang-woo.
And the more you catch the terracotta warriors, the more you catch
[Muscle strength increased by 0.001]
[Reason increased by 0.001]
[Magic power increased by 0.001]
[Stamina increased by 0.001]
[Auror skill level increased]
[Alter self strengthened The level of the skill has risen.]
[The level of the monster absorption skill has risen.]
Sang-woo was rapidly getting stronger.
In particular, the increase in stats was remarkable, and this was thanks to the monster absorption skill.
───────────────
·[Demon Suck/Permanent (Lv. 48)]: Absorbs the essence of the monster.
– When killing a monster, there is a 48% chance to absorb the monster’s stats.
– The amount of increase depends on the strength of the monster.
-Increases the chance of absorbing stats when killing in one blow.
───────────────
When he obtained the symbol of gluttony, perhaps because of the influence of gluttony, the level of his Ghost Absorption skill rose by almost 30 levels.
After that, there was a new feature that was added, and that is ‘the probability of absorbing abilities increases when killed in one blow’.
I don’t know how much the probability has risen, but since this trait was created, the frequency of absorbing stats by activating Mysterious Suck has increased noticeably.
So now Sang-woo blew away several terracotta warriors with a whirlwind, so each one’s stats rose by almost 0.001.
‘Crazy, crazy.’
Even Sang-woo himself couldn’t believe the growth rate.
Sang-woo was growing rapidly due to the strength of the monster suction and Stormbringer swordsmanship, and the alter egos intertwined.
‘Strike-up Kazuah-!’
And seeing that, Raven smiled happily.
‘Okay, brother. I finally got to enjoy the fight.’
He was a person who believed that you need to have fun to grow quickly. Because Raven himself was like that when he was younger too.
He liked the sword and loved it.
In that respect, it could be said that Sangwoo and Raven are exactly alike.
how much time has passed
It seems like it’s been a while, but Sang-woo and his clones wiped out all the terracotta warriors on the roadside.
Twenty-twenty terracotta warriors were coming from the surroundings, but it was already a solid road to the tomb of Qin Shi Huang.
“Guide, the road has been cleared. Can I enter the portal right away?”
“yes? yes. You can go right in.”
The terracotta warriors flocked to him when he made a sound, so it was a rule to talk with the messenger skill, but that was broken before he knew it.
He wiped out all the terracotta warriors, so he didn’t need to be careful.
“You heard me, sir. Let’s go right away.”
Sang-woo took the clones and strode forward.
Sonmi did not immediately follow and looked at Raven.
‘Go first.’
The unspoken gaze.
However, Raven just stared at Sonmi with an expressionless face.
Raven’s eyes, which seemed to see through her heart, made her feel cold.
‘…Is it a sword seeker after all?’
She smiled awkwardly, trying to hide her nervousness that she might be caught.
“You go first. I will follow.”
-I get it.
Raven also walked to the portal.
Sonmi followed and fixed her backpack.
