The Dungeon Cleaning Life of a Once Genius Hunter - Chapter 178

‘What on earth is this bastard…’

Noah let out a rough breath as he looked at Kim Jun-woo, who had fallen out.

The attack clearly went well, but it was Noah himself who was more embarrassed.

After all, it was only one room.

I did my best for 30 minutes and only got one hit.

Until then, I couldn’t even inflict any significant damage, let alone a proper attack.

‘Where on earth is this guy from?…’

What’s creepier than anything is that he said he had no intention of killing him.

Doesn’t this mean that he is using just enough strength not to kill him, unlike himself, who is attacking him with the determination to kill him?

A hunter who can fight while conserving his strength against the number one ranked player?

Does that even exist?

“This is amazing.”

At that time, Kim Jun-woo rose from the rubble.

“You are the first person to hit me with pure force. “It’s clear that being ranked second in the world didn’t just happen.”

“…It’s ridiculous. “Are you saying you’re the unofficial number one?”

“It’s unofficial?”

Kim Jun-woo’s eyes turned to Noah.

“Still not feeling it?”

He still had a strange smile on his face, but the atmosphere was completely different from before.

It’s like the eyes of a predator looking at its prey.

Noah’s whole body tensed up without even realizing it.

‘Damn it…’

he gritted his teeth.

It’s slowly starting to take a toll on my body.

It was the first time I had raised my status this high since the red grade dungeon a year ago.

In other words, that bastard alone now has the power of a red-level monster.

Can we really call that a person?

That bastard’s skills are completely different from those of hunters who seem like idiots.

‘Are they stronger than the strong?…’

I have met many world rankers so far.

Now that I’m facing that guy, I feel like it was all a joke.

‘Can I win?…’

I had a moment of doubt, but that was all.

Noah’s hands tightened.

Okay, when did you fight while thinking like that?

Even when I was beaten by my adoptive parents every day, when I left home with Sophia, when I first entered the dungeon, and even when I was ranked first, I only thought about one thing.

Just surviving.

Today is also an extension of that.

“Haaap!!”

Noah took his stance again with a loud cheer.

[Unique Skill: Apocalypse]

[Survival – 1st Law]

[Zero Tolerance]

Boom Kwagwang―!!

With a single punch, the surrounding debris flew into the sky.

However, Kim Jun-woo quickly dodged the attack again.

Noah’s current total status is 190,000.

Even a mere graze is fatal.

Kim Jun-woo also seemed to know this and concentrated on avoiding it.

Kwasik—!

Kwakkwang-!!

Bubbling bubbling-!!

Noah continued to push forward as if he wouldn’t give him any time to escape.

Kim Jun-woo didn’t just suffer.

[Unique Skill: Demon King – Dictator]

[Production Skill: Summon the Demon Sword]

A large sword appeared in the air.

[Unique Skill: Apocalypse]

[Survival – Third Law]

[Robbery]

Shuuuuuk!

The sword flew towards Kim Jun-woo, not Noah.

bang-!!!

“…Ugh!”

A shock so great that the ground shook.

Kim Jun-woo, who had been avoiding all attacks, seemed to have taken quite a bit of damage this time.

Kim Jun-woo’s skill, which extinguished attacks, seemed to be useless now.

Even if you create a skill on the spot, it’s okay if you take it away.

You can’t defeat him right away, but there is a chance when your status reaches maximum.

There are only 10 minutes left to reach the maximum.

If you can block the attacks and hold out for just 10 minutes…

you can win.

That was the moment I thought about it.

“That might be a bit dangerous.”

Kim Jun-woo’s creepy eyes penetrated Noah.

For a moment, I felt like my whole body was shivering and I cringed.

“Then why don’t you kill me before that?”

[Unique Skill: Apocalypse]

[Survival – 5th Law]

[Forcible Breakthrough]

Pang-!!

As he kicked the ground and rushed forward again, a huge shock wave was created that shook the space.

[Survival – First Law]

[Zero Tolerance]

He put all his strength into his fist and stretched it out towards Kim Jun-woo.

[Unique Skill: Demon King – Awakening]

An airflow bursting out from Kim Jun-woo’s whole body at a level that was incomparable to anything before.

[The awakening skill has been activated.]

[As of the current time, the caster transcends the existing class.]

[Awakening class: Absolute monarch]

“…Huh?”

Noah’s body suddenly stopped.

For a moment, I thought it was the effect of Kim Jun-woo’s skill.

‘No, this is….’

It’s an instinct.

The body’s instinct was to block it.

My instinct was to feel that overwhelming fear that if I got any closer, I would really die.

“Fuck you…!!”

Noah screamed and desperately moved his body.

[Unique Skill: Apocalypse]

[Survival – Third Law]

[Rob]

But….

[…Skill cannot be cast]

“…What?”

[This is not the correct casting target.]

[Please specify the target again.]

“What the fuck….”

Noah’s head instantly turned white in embarrassment.

Meanwhile, Kim Jun-woo’s finger was pointed towards him.

I lowered my head without realizing it due to the overwhelming sense of intimidation that I couldn’t even make eye contact with.

[Absolute Monarch: Destroyer]

────!

Soon the surrounding sounds disappeared.

I didn’t feel anything.

There was only one thought that emerged in my fading consciousness.

‘Wesley, this crazy guy….’

What on earth were you thinking when you had a guy like that as your enemy?

***

I let out a deep sigh when I saw that Oliver’s house and other buildings were completely devastated.

I never thought I would even use the awakening skill.

But I also had no choice.

At the last moment, Noah’s total status exceeded 250,000.

‘If I had been a little late, I would have been in big trouble…’

As I shook off the faint feeling of crisis, Kim Min-ju approached me.

“Mr. Seo…?”

“don’t worry. “I didn’t kill him.”

He answered while looking at Noah, who had fallen unconscious on the floor.

In fact, I couldn’t be sure what would happen to him in the last attack.

Because he wasn’t the kind of guy who could fight while controlling his strength.

‘I thought it would be inevitable if I died from this…’ I never

thought it would end with me barely losing consciousness.

It was possible because it was this guy. If it were any other guy, it would have already ended up in the afterlife.

‘He’s definitely a strong guy.’

I can’t help but shake my head at this guy’s persistent vitality.

“Of course! Even if you say that, I thought you would save me!”

At that time, Oliver, whom Kim Min-ju saved, raised his voice.

Is that guy still out of his mind?

“Don’t be mistaken. “I just kept it alive because it still has some use.”

“Uh huh…?”

“You and the guy down there are still needed to fight against the International Association. Of course, if it doesn’t help, I’ll take care of it myself.”

“….”

A shadow fell on Oliver’s face.

It is the same reason why Noah was not killed here.

Although he belongs to PB Corporation, his goal is to avenge his younger sister.

As long as the target of his revenge includes the International Association, his blade will someday be pointed at the headquarters.

Of course, it would be uncomfortable for the headquarters as well.

If we kill Noah here, all we can do is save one headache from headquarters.

Above all….

‘If that guy also has a mind, he will be able to tell the difference between friend and enemy.’

I don’t even want to help.

Just having him stand up to the International Association is enough to benefit him.

‘Haa….’

The situation is not so good.

The bank item was eventually not recovered, and the International Association was able to control dungeons and hunters around the world.

If Eden falls into their hands… there is no longer any way to stop the International Association.

Second International Association.

Inauguration as Secretary-General within 5 years.

Karma skill unlocked.

Return to original body.

It will all be impossible.

So, for now… the priority is to get Eden first, no matter what.

“Do you remember the information about the dungeon where Eden was discovered three years ago?”

“Uh… that… I think it was a yellow grade dimensional dungeon…”

A dimensional dungeon.

Among all dungeons, this is the dungeon with the longest reappearance period.

Well, I guess it hasn’t been discovered yet.

The average waiting period for a dimensional dungeon is 3 years…

just in time for it to reappear.

The problem is that we don’t know where it will reappear in the U.S….

‘It would be nice if we get lucky and appear in the area we purchased.’

It’s an absurd probability.

You can’t rely on luck as the situation is situational.

If that’s the case… there’s nothing we can do.

I immediately took out my cell phone.

“That’s me.”

“What happened?”

Director Lee Ah-young, who answered the phone, asked in a nervous voice.

“The deal fell through.”

“…Huh?!”

“And I heard that Eden was discovered three years ago.”

“Eden? “That really existed?!”

“It seems like that. As you probably know, if Eden falls into the hands of the International Association, it’s all over. No matter what, we have to find it first… It won’t be possible unless we manage dungeons across America.” ”

You mean…”

“Yes.”

I nodded and continued speaking.

“Let us take over the American branch.”

***

International Hunter Association Headquarters.

“A report has just come in that a fight has broken out in Trenton, USA. They say there was no one there when the police arrived at the scene…”

The assistant secretary who was reporting to Secretary General Wesley continued speaking with difficulty, looking at him.

“I have lost contact with Noah Westonwood since then.”

“You lost contact? “He’s not dead?”

“yes. “Seeing as no body has been found, I don’t think he died.”

“her.”

I burst out laughing without realizing it.

Is it possible that no one died?

‘Tsk, this is getting annoying…’

That person is a person who only has revenge on his sister.

As long as the international association is included in the target, they will definitely try to attack us at some point.

It may not happen, but if you happen to join hands with Kim Jun-woo… that would definitely be difficult.

I can’t help it.

It’s earlier than planned, but we have no choice but to move slowly.

“Please prepare for a press conference right now.”

“yes yes?”

The secretary was very surprised.

“Ah, it’s a little dangerous to move already when Eden hasn’t been discovered yet…”

“If we wait until then and Kim Jun-woo or Noah attack, will you take responsibility?”

“….”

“We must take control of the international community before they show their teeth. “It is not too late to wait for the right time.”

“…sorry.”

The secretary immediately lowered his head.

“Let’s start by restricting the appearance of dungeons for all countries other than our branch.”

Secretary General Wesley’s voice was low.

“From now on, all dungeons and hunters around the world… we will manage them.”
