Chapter 116

Chapter 116: Night Dungeon (4)

“Im Bonghee…?”

As Yeongwoo muttered in a daze, a sensation of golden flashes filled his vision.

「The sensory value has temporarily increased from the original 800 to 924.」

「The sensory value has temporarily increased from the original 924 to 1,089.」

「The sensory value has temporarily increased from the original 1,089 to 1,235.」

Eventually, reaching the highest sensory ability triggered the activation of ‘Agility.’

「Agility」 – Mutation Ring

【When Senses is the highest ability, 10% damage reduction is obtained.】

The monsters that appeared with Im Bonghee began to rush in earnest.

– Catch them…!

– From their legs!

Judging by the obtained sensory values, the average ability of the monsters ranged between 200 and 300.

Therefore, they weren’t a significant threat in terms of combat alone, but the issue lay in their numbers.

Just sticking to them consumed a lot of stamina.

Moreover, every time they swung the daggers they held in their hands, it caused a chilling sensation on the skin, which became increasingly unbearable over time.

Despite Yeongwoo’s durability reaching thousands, repeated attacks on the same spot inevitably deepened the wounds.

“Ugh!”

Of course, Yeongwoo had a trick to shake off the clinging enemies.

That was none other than…

Boom!

「Self-destruct」 – Mutation Bracelet

【Causes a strong explosion.】

【Durability increased by 300.】

A kind of self-destruct device called ‘Self-destruct.’

However, as terrifying as it was to blast away nearby monsters with it, more monsters rushed in like ants, and since there was a reload time for the explosion, it was impossible to use it infinitely.

‘Damn it.’

Eventually, within ten minutes, blood started to flow from Yeongwoo’s body, prompting Ricardo to intervene.

“Korean! Hold on a little longer…!”

Although he said so, in reality, he was already surrounded by a dozen or so monsters.

It was practically impossible to guard both the bonfire and the handler at the same time.

‘Damn, can this mission even succeed?’

Yeongwoo poured blood from his whole body, still gazing at the distant lights of the pathway with no end in sight.

Something… Something more was needed.

However, the whistle hadn’t charged yet, and using the Dragon’s Legacy like a boomerang wasn’t enough to wipe out the constantly incoming monsters in time.

Of course, due to ‘Masochism’ his strength had increased dramatically, and his speed was faster than before, but he couldn’t help but feel increasingly sure that he couldn’t finish this.

「Slime Core」 – Mutation Bracelet

【Regenerative power increases dramatically.】

His regeneration couldn’t offset the minor damages caused by the monsters.

Their numbers were just too many.

‘Wait, where did Im Bonghee go?’

As Yeongwoo swung his black sword extended up to 6 meters, he tried to find a familiar face among the ashen corpses.

And then…

– Agh!

Hearing a sharp voice from the side, outside his field of vision, he turned his head.

From the side, Yeongwoo heard a sharp voice coming from outside his field of vision and turned his head.

Then…

Swish!

A large gray axe blade flew towards him.

– Die!

It was none other than Im Bonghee aiming for Yeongwoo’s neck and swinging her weapon.

“This…!”

However, unlike Bonghee, who functioned as a mere “troublemaker” within this abyss, Yeongwoo was the “Strongest Sword,” who had grown through numerous hardships.

Therefore, such a trivial attack like this…

‘I don’t even need the help of swordsmanship. It’s too obvious.’

Yeongwoo easily deflected Bonghee’s attack, which seemed to move in slow motion, with his forehead.

Clang!

Bonghee’s attack, which failed to penetrate Yeongwoo’s head, bounced back without force, and immediately, Yeongwoo’s black sword swept towards her side.

Whoosh!

And then, something amazing happened.

Shaaah!

On the arc drawn by Yeongwoo’s black sword, the logo of Dogo was printed as if embroidered.

And on top of that, Bonghee’s head, which was spinning like a couple of wheels, flew by simply.

Thud.

It was like a scene from a movie.

“Huh…?”

Yeongwoo instinctively held his breath for a moment.

The endless waves of lightweight ashen monsters, the pain radiating from the wounds covering his entire body, and even the tense breathing of his party members from behind.

Given the circumstances, he had forgotten.

That he was the advertising model for the intergalactic weapon brand, Dogo.

Surely the shareholders of Dogo were watching this insane situation as well.

– Aaah!

– Kill him!

Even amidst this chaos, more ashen monsters were swarming in from the front, forming another huge crowd.

The number of them was so great that the lights illuminating the pathway were completely obscured.

“Ugh…”

Ricardo, who had just dragged out a monster leaping towards the bonfire, noticed the darkness surging towards the direction of the handler and looked at it with fearful eyes.

He realized that a far greater number of monsters were coming now than before.

Moreover, there were still hundreds of monsters near the ship.

“H… Hey, Korean! Are you okay?”

Seeing that even the pathway lights were completely obscured, Ricardo asked the handler.

Then he noticed that something was wrong with the handler and shouted in alarm.

“What the fuck are you doing, Korean!”

Seeing this, Ottavio, who was frantically swinging his sword while showing his back to Ricardo, turned around hastily.

Then…

“Huh?”

He suddenly saw the back of an Asian hunter kneeling on the ground.

It was as if he was praying to the sky.

No, it was obvious that he was praying to the sky, with both hands bound in chains, looking up at the distant sky.

“Jeong Yeongwoo!”

Ottavio, realizing that the ship had completely stopped, showed a furious expression for the first time since entering the dungeon.

Could there really be a god in this fucked up world?

If this mission failed, one out of the three would inevitably have to play Russian roulette and face death.

However, Ottavio had no intention of leaving his fate to chance.

“This insane…!”

At the moment Ottavio was about to curse the pitiful Asian hunter, Yeongwoo, bound in chains, raised his blood-soaked arms to the sky and shouted.

“This battle…! Is sponsored by the intergalactic weapon brand Dogo!”

* * *

How did Moses feel standing in front of the locked Red Sea?

Yeongwoo was an atheist, but at this moment, he was closer to a fanatic.

He proceeded with the task with a unilateral certainty that Dogo, or rather the sky, was watching over him.

Now, he was about to start the Dogo brand advertisement.

“I am Jeong Yeongwoo, the strongest from Gyeongbuk and Gangnam on Earth! From now on, it’s ad time!”

Yeongwoo’s arms, raised high into the air, were trembling slightly.

If Dogo didn’t answer this call… no, this provocation, there would be little left of the remaining pathway.

He didn’t show it, but his strength had been rapidly draining since a while ago.

It was probably due to losing too much blood.

But at least, wasn’t Yeongwoo the world’s top-tier “tanker”?

If he couldn’t handle it, no matter who took the helm, the outcome would likely be the same.

It was such a diabolical difficulty level that one might think it was a trap to kill one of the three participants from the beginning.

“Dogo…!”

With Yeongwoo’s final shout, thousands of monsters that were approaching under the cover of darkness revealed themselves under the light.

– Aaah!

– Kill the handler first!

– Attack!

In a flash, the monsters overwhelmed Yeongwoo, piling up on top of him like a small mountain.

The chain connecting him to the “ship” couldn’t even be seen anymore.

And when the pile grew too big to climb, the rest surged towards the bonfire.

“Ha, fuck.”

Ricardo, anticipating the worst outcome, looked at Ottavio with a pale face.

It was meant to be their last farewell.

But Ottavio, in the midst of this tense situation, was staring into the void.

“What’s happening…”

Observing Ottavio’s reaction, Ricardo, too, shifted his gaze upwards.

“Crack!”

Soon, his eyes turned white.

Because a laser beam was shooting down from the sky.

Zzzzzzzz!

The area, previously shrouded in darkness, suddenly brightened up as if it were midday.

– Eek!

– Aaah!

Not only the two marksmen but also the ashen monsters filling the chamber felt an instinctive fear and began to scatter in all directions.

As if cockroaches were seeking shelter in the dark.

Thud!

And in the moment when the monsters piled up like a mountain on top of Yeongwoo, a sharp blade suddenly soared up from among them, drawing a spectacular spiral pattern as it swung diagonally.

“Hyaaah!”

This was none other than Gyeongbuk’s strongest sword, Yeongwoo07.

He had just received a response from Dogo, the one who had been given a chance to survive.

It was all thanks to his strategy of starting an advertisement on his own.

[Dogo] “Almost Sold Out”

[Mission] Survive using the equipment provided.

[Reward] Survival guaranteed

[Special] Real-time feedback on equipment usage is required for this mission.

[Note] The provided equipment will be collected.

In Yeongwoo’s view, a new Dogo quest was now available, and there was a palm-sized dodecahedron lying on his palm.

A dodecahedron with twelve pentagonal faces.

Swoosh.

As Yeongwoo picked it up, the laser that had been descending vertically suddenly disappeared as if it were a lie.

Whack!

Then the ashen monsters, who had been fleeing from the light, began to show signs of aggression again.

– Disappear!

– Now’s the time!

– Quick, kill him!

– Hurry up…!

Tap, tap, tap, thud!

The ashen horde began to surge back from the darkness.

Yeongwoo unknowingly exerted force on the dodecahedron he was holding.

Squeak.

Then, each face where Yeongwoo’s fingers touched slightly indented inward, like buttons.

Click.

“Huh.”

Then holographic numbers appeared on the dodecahedron.

【3】

“Huh?”

【2】

“…Oh.”

【1】

Yeongwoo had a gut feeling that this was a bomb and threw the dodecahedron into the darkness.

Whoosh!

【X】

…!

If Yeongwoo hadn’t seen it wrong, the dodecahedron displayed ‘X’ as its last message, and then…

Boom!

With a deafening roar, the dodecahedron exploded, or more precisely, opened up in mid-air.

Then…

Swoooosh!

All the monsters within the dodecahedron’s cavity were sucked in.

At least a thousand of them.

“Huh?”

“W-what…?”

In disbelief, Ottavio and Ricardo, who were still standing on the deck, opened their mouths wide.

At first, they thought the Asian had gone crazy, muttering nonsense towards the sky, but then something actually came down.

A divine weapon that could tidy up the entire chamber with just one throw.

“It… It can’t be.”

Could there really be a god in this world…?

As the two foreigners looked at Yeongwoo in awe, the Asian hunter walked over to the ship and picked up the dodecahedron from the ground.

Then, looking up at the sky, he exclaimed loudly.

“Ah… Wow! Amazing, it’s a… spatial bomb! With its polygonal structure, it seems to fit well in any hand!”
