The Dungeon Cleaning Life of a Once Genius Hunter - Chapter 64

Near Jamsil Station.

Not long after Operation Team 1, including Director Kim Jun-woo, entered the dungeon.

Following Kim Jun-woo’s orders, the control team completely sealed off a 10m radius around the dungeon entrance.

Other guilds who heard the news late made a fuss as they crossed the no-entry line and rushed into the dungeon, but the operations team quickly suppressed them.

Of course, that alone was not enough to calm their excitement.

In the end, only after the control team explained the current operation situation in detail did everyone begin to calm down little by little.

‘Damn you guys. You’re only making us suffer…’

Team leader Pyeon shook his head.

I normally didn’t have any ill feelings towards the guild, but now I was in a situation where I could be quite angry with them.

Not only did it cause billions of interceptions, but it also caused an accident.

At that time, I was sticking my tongue out with a very annoyed face.

“what?! “What happened?”

The entire cleaning team, along with team leader Han Yu-bin, arrived at the scene late. They were also in a state of panic and looked very embarrassed.

“An accident occurred when a guild entered a dungeon after misunderstanding its level. “The head of the headquarters is currently conducting a rescue operation directly with Operation Team 1.”

“Are you Joo Jun-woo?!”

“Why on earth is that guy? “Why are you upset that the guild did something wrong?!”

Moon So-yeon and Han Sang-hyuk raised their voices in response to Team Leader Pyeon’s explanation.

Of course, Pyeon Chang-hyeon also did not understand all of Director Kim Jun-woo’s actions.

Kim Jun-woo is the most personable person I have ever met. Of course, the rescue operation was also carried out out of pure goodwill and without any calculation of profit or loss.

However, as someone with a small capacity, I have no choice but to come up with calculations.

Only if the rescue is successful will we make our money.

If there is even a failure, all criticism may be directed at the association, regardless of the intention.

Moreover, I entered the orange level dungeon without any preparation. Let alone rescuing survivors, there is no guarantee that the operation team will be safe either.

Of course, there is no way that Director Kim Jun-woo did not keep that in mind.

Then, the reason he carried out the rescue operation was because he judged that human lives were more important than such trivial matters.

‘As expected, the bowls are different.’

So how can you not respect him?

That’s why I couldn’t help but be even more worried.

It’s not just the team leader who is worried. The same was true for the Han siblings, Moon So-yeon, and most of the team members present.

Team leader Pyeon felt it when he saw this.

That Kim Jun-woo has now become an indispensable figure in the operation headquarters.

‘So please come out safely.’

Team leader Pyeon muttered as he looked at the black dungeon entrance.

***

‘…I should have just stayed outside.’

The moment I made eye contact with the boss monster, a giant spider, I regretted going out myself.

Regardless of whether or not it could be subdued, it seemed like a monster that would be quite difficult to subdue.

‘It would be out of order to come this far and then retreat…’

I clicked my tongue.

Then, I looked around the boss room again and summarized the situation.

Typically, rescue operations proceed in two cases.

The first is to defeat the monster first and then rescue the survivors.

The second is to set aside subjugation and rescue only the survivors.

Of course, the first method is the cleanest and best method since you don’t have to enter the dungeon again, but that’s only if you have enough information about the monster.

In a situation like now where there is so little information that a spider can pop out even if you say it’s a dragon, if you start a battle hastily, not only the survivors but also us can be in danger.

Another problem is that the space is too narrow to fight. This inevitably limits the skills that can be used.

If I were alone, I would have tried something, but there’s no need to overdo it.

“Kim Min-joo.”

“yes.”

“I think we will have to take only the survivors. “Let’s do the subjugation again later when we have more information.”

“I think that would be good, but… can we ignore the boss and get to the other side? “If it reacts to sound and attacks, it won’t be easy to move.”

“I’ll lure you in.”

Kim Min-ju’s eyes widened.

“I’ll try to attract attention somehow, so you run and rescue them first.”

“…all right.”

I immediately took a deep breath.

I took a step forward with a jerk sound.

That moment.

Piyung-.

A sharp thread flew straight towards the head.

Even though I quickly lowered my head, the thread barely passed my cheek.

…Just turn on the blinker and come in.

[Detection of attack against caster]

[Entering combat stance as of current time]

[Activate skill]

[Acquired skill: Hyper Boost]

With my whole body feeling like it was on fire, I made eye contact with Minjoo Kim. It was to get the timing right.

Just count to three in your mind for a moment.

fault-!

“run!!”

I entered to the left first and shouted.

I didn’t wait for an answer.

I just gritted my teeth and crossed the boss room with all my might.

As expected, the boss only attacked me. It was completely baited.

Up to this point, I thought the operation was going smoothly, but it was different from what I expected…

bababababak-!!

‘What’s so fast?!’

The attack was so fierce.

Sharp threads rained down my tail. It’s barely possible to avoid it even at the speed at which hyper boost is activated.

‘If I had known this would happen, I would have invested in movement skills in my past life.’

The moment you hesitate for even a second, you will turn into a hedgehog, but this is enough for now.

‘Just running away isn’t my style.’

Suddenly, I burst out laughing at my situation, but that only lasted for a moment.

Sigh!

“Oh my.”

If you don’t want to be a skewer, you have to stay focused.

From my experience so far, the reason why spider-type monsters are difficult is because of the webs they spew rather than the monsters themselves.

This spider’s web had adhesive properties comparable to the blood of the ‘Foxtrot Centipede’ that almost killed me right after its return.

If it even touches your skin, you will be stranded on the spot.

Moreover, due to the nature of spider webs, they are hard to see, and since this is now being fired as a projectile, it is bound to be even more difficult.

But what is more dangerous than anything else is that there may be a spider web installed somewhere in this space.

So, when subduing spider-type monsters, it is standard to move as carefully as possible while fighting…

‘Now is not the time to discuss such things.’

Paang!

I accelerated a little more.

A strong wind came out from behind with a roar.

It runs along walls and moves as irregularly as possible.

Fortunately, I gradually became familiar with the attack pattern and became accustomed to moving my body.

As I became more relaxed in my movements, my field of vision also broadened.

Maintain a certain distance from the boss, gain time to avoid projectiles, and avoid corners where visibility is difficult.

At the same time, it periodically monitors the locations of the operation team and survivors and lures monsters to places far away from them.

It may be unexpected that the spider monster attacks so quickly, but if things continue like this, there will be no problem with the rescue operation…

BOOM!!

At that moment, something huge fell on my head.

“Huh…!”

I immediately threw my body to avoid it, but my timing was off and my posture was bad. I lost my balance and fell to the floor.

The monster’s eight red eyes flashed in front of me.

‘It’s getting annoying…’

I quickly got up and took a stance.

The boss, who had been sticking to the ceiling, eventually stepped forward himself.

It seems they decided that they couldn’t catch it by shooting it with a thread.

The boss monster is smarter than you think.

It’s so annoying.

Sussssss―.

The boss probed me with his huge jaw.

Should I attack? Or defense?

The moment I thought about it for a while.

Pak-.

Two sharp jaws struck.

“Fire!”

[Acquired skill: Flame]

[Skill activation]

Boom!

Black flames flew straight at the boss, causing a small explosion.

Of course, I didn’t expect to be able to defeat it with a C-class magic skill… but it would still be able to inflict some damage.

I thought I could at least tie my feet.

however.

“What is that again….”

ssssssssss.

I could not help but be astonished at the sight before my eyes.

Didn’t take any damage at all.

No, I couldn’t even reach the skill in the first place.

The giant spider monster instantly split into thousands of spiders.

Sssssssuk―.

Thousands of spiders the size of a human head instantly dispersed and hid themselves in the darkness.

“Hey hey! It seems like X! Hurry!”

I shouted urgently at Minjoo Kim.

However, it seemed like they also encountered an unexpected variable.

“The survivors are tied up in spider webs and won’t move!”

I turned my head and looked at the other side.

I realized the situation late.

The survivors were not crouching, but were covered in spider webs and turning into a cocoon.

‘Maybe he was the type to eat sparingly.’

It’s fortunate that it doesn’t get eaten right away, but it takes time to escape.

“I don’t have time to wait. “Stop it somehow!”

“yes!”

Kim Min-ju urgently took out a sword from his waist.

[Unique Skill: Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara]

The blue blade flashed with a blue eye glow.

Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

!”

At the wrong time, thousands of hidden spiders rushed towards the operation team with an evil sound.

“What the hell!!”

“Aaaah!!”

“Fuck, fuck!”

“How can I do this…!”

Before we could do anything, the spiders completely covered the entire operation team in an instant. At the same time, they all spewed out spider webs.

Minju Kim was tied up in spider webs before he could even swing his sword, and the other hunters were helpless.

“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu”

“Ugh….”

Just a few seconds.

The operations team had already resembled a group of survivors.

It was too late to intervene and do anything.

If I try to stop it and end up tied up in the spider’s web, it’s really over.

I held my breath without moving a single step from my spot.

Immediately silence surrounded me. There was no sound like when I first opened the door.

Left enthralled in complete darkness, I closed my eyes and took a slow, deep breath.

There is no other reason why dungeons are dangerous.

No matter how good a hunter is at flying and crawling, the reason why there are deaths in dungeons every year is…

lack of prior information.

I don’t know if it’s below the green level, but it’s no exaggeration to say that above the yellow level, information determines everything.

However, without any information, it is virtually impossible to defeat the Orange level alone.

Of course, it’s not impossible at all.

‘We’ll have to change our strategy.’

Soon, I slowly opened my eyes.

Yes, if you don’t have information, you just need the power to cover it.

There is no point in attacking them one by one.

A random attack is worse than not attacking at all.

It’s meaningless if you can’t fly thousands of them at once.

The room is so small that randomly firing skills can endanger not only the survivors but also the operation team… but

now is not the time to judge hot from cold.

It would be better to try something than to die here all together.

‘Now that it’s like this, seriously…’

[Acquired skill: Shape – Uriel]

[As long as the shape is maintained, allies designated by the caster will not die]

The moment eight huge white wings sprouted from the back.

He pointed his finger at the cocooned guys.

[The ally designation is complete]

[10 seconds until the ally becomes immune to death]

[9 seconds]

[8 seconds]

Sssssssssssssss.

The spiders that sensed the skill began to rush towards me.

You shouldn’t panic.

You need to stay focused as much as possible.

[Acquired skill: Limit Break]

[All of the caster’s status temporarily exceeds the limit.]

[Once the effect of the skill ends, all skills cannot be used temporarily.]

Black energy oozed from the entire body.

[Acquired skill: Over-Immersion]

[The effect of all skills used by the caster during battle increases significantly]

[Acquired skill: Fallen Angel]

[The caster’s magical power temporarily increases significantly]

[The magic power increase rate increases due to the Over-Immersion skill. increases]

[Current magic power value: 921240 (913440↑)]

[Magic power value exceeds the wizard class]

[Class awakening]

[Unique class: Grand Mage]

“Whoa….”

The black energy can no longer be controlled. It came out like that.

Before I knew it, spiders were rushing at me from all directions as if hunting for prey.

Soon, the black energy that was spreading everywhere was quickly compressed to the tips of my fingers.

It is now.

[Acquired skill: Destroyer]

[Fires powerful explosive magic forward]

[Skill activation]

Flashing –

All living things in front of me disappeared.
