36 – World 11. First Hunt (2)
summoner.
It is a job that can be used from low to high level summons to ultimate summons.
Even though I already have a summon card from the 7th world, I chose this summoner because it was so difficult to use.
Since it was a card that summoned divine beasts, demon beasts, and phantom beasts, the energy that had to be blown into it was also quite high.
To be honest, I didn’t think it would be possible with the current magic power.
Of course, if you drink MP recovery potions in succession, you can summon them, but even if you summon them like that, they disappear again after 2-3 minutes.
Because it is summoned and moved based on the energy it blows in, the energy is quickly exhausted.
That’s why I continued to drink potions and infuse magic into them.
‘Besides, I can change my job once a day.’
If you want to try it as a summoner first, then change to another job.
Thinking nothing of it, I slowly turned my head and looked around.
‘Well.’
I saw numerous soldiers with the gate gradually approaching.
There were also a few people who were supposed to be residents, but the ratio seemed to be about 8:2.
“Looks like there are also residents.”
When I asked, paying attention to the tone, Karina, who was walking in the lead, answered.
“Because we need people to work here at Fort Fritton. Starting with cleaning and cooking, I am in charge of various jobs such as manufacturing, repairing, processing, and so on.”
“yes?”
“Yes. If you started in a stronghold, you’ll be able to level up your body quickly. That’s a lot of work.”
I ended up nodding my head after hearing Karina’s words, but Muel, who was following me, asked strangely.
“Hey, Mr. Lee Sungmin. Is this the first time you’ve heard of it?”
“then?”
“No…… Umm. it’s nothing.”
I seemed to know what you were thinking.
It seems that I am at a loss as I, dressed in my current gear, react as if I am hearing even an obvious story for the first time.
Not only that, but even Soltis and Zepin started looking at me with curious eyes.
Of course, I didn’t care about that kind of gaze.
But other people seemed to care.
“ah. I was starting to feel a bit uneasy.”
It was Muel’s words.
I don’t know what he’s worried about, but seeing that Soltis and Zepin didn’t say anything, I wondered if they agreed to some extent.
Still, he did not stop walking, so he was able to escape through the gate before he knew it.
‘The land is more desolate than I thought.’
Many battles must have been fought, and the land near the wall was torn in places, and the color was also dark.
Finally, there was an unpleasant smell, as if something was rotting.
Then Karina’s voice was heard.
“By the way, the blood of the bloody tribes contaminates the land. No crops can grow on the land that has turned black like now.”
“It’s pollution…”
Pollution reminded me of the previous world.
Because there was a similar problem in the previous world.
There was also an object made to solve the problem.
It is the ‘Earth Purification Stake’.
It was an item that, when implanted into the ground, would purify the ground up to a radius of 1km.
‘If I do well, wouldn’t the protection level go up even with that earth purification stake?’
There were plenty of possibilities.
It’s because it revives the soil, which is no different from being polluted and dead.
Since this was also a job for humanity, there was a high possibility that it would be replaced with an achievement and the protection level would rise.
Bubbly-
In the meantime, as we moved further away from the fortress, it was not difficult to spot players moving in groups of two or three.
“Did they come to raise their level too?”
“that’s right. Because an effective way to raise both the job level and the physical level is to catch the beast.”
“It seems that the thugs are also united like an army.”
If they acted systematically like an army, it would not have been possible for such a small number of people to gather together to catch the vicious tribe.
Karina nodded as if my prediction was correct.
“When invading a fortress, a strong individual is in command, but they usually tend to act instinctively.”
“What if it’s instinct?”
“It’s about coveting a strong body. Most of the beasts are masses of tentacles, and they enter the corpse of the dead and fuse halfway through.”
As I listened to Karina’s explanation, I realized new facts one by one, but the more I did, the stronger my eyes were staring at me.
And as if he couldn’t stand it any longer, Muel immediately stepped out.
“Lee Seong-min! As a genius wizard, when I see him with my own eyes, Lee Seong-min seems like a beginner who knows nothing.”
“beginner?”
“Excuse me, when was the first time you logged in?”
“It’s not really an important question.”
To be honest, I logged on two days ago, but it didn’t matter.
Isn’t skill what matters?
But, perhaps thinking that I was dodging the answer, Muel spoke as if in despair.
“Hunting with a raw beginner!”
Taking a peek, Soltis and Zepin’s expressions weren’t good either.
However, it seemed that Karina and Ren, including me, did not know that it had only been online for two or three days.
Would you be more disappointed if you knew?
‘Still, it’s surprising.’
I thought you would go back right away.
Since we decided to hunt together, it seemed like we were going to keep that word.
“I can see the ugly people over there.”
Then Karina pointed to one side and said.
Turning my head in that direction, I was able to spot a half-corrupt wolf-like creature.
It was a wolf with a hole in its neck and one side of its side.
However, I could see several tentacles protruding from the hole.
The tentacles were so dark green that anyone could see them as dangerous, and they even wriggled.
“Is that a badass?”
“Yes. To be precise, it is a normal object fused with a dead wolf corpse.”
normal object?
As soon as they saw a pack of wolves, they immediately rushed at them.
It was fast and fierce enough to make me wonder if it was the wolf I knew.
“Does your physical ability improve?”
“You noticed. that’s right. When the beasts are fused, they have a little more strength than their bodies in life.”
“Well.”
So isn’t it dangerous if the player gets hit?
As soon as I thought about it, Karina spoke about it.
“Fortunately, the player’s body disappears the moment he dies, so fusion is impossible.”
As soon as those words were finished, the wolf’s bloody tribe was cut to death with a single sword.
The player stabbed several times to see if it was a confirmed kill.
“Ah, that’s killing the main body and finding the crystal inside.”
Hearing Karina’s words felt like my near future.
Should I cut like that and find the crystal inside?
‘······No, wouldn’t it be better to summon a soldier and entrust it to him?’
While I was thinking about it, I saw some kind of anteater-like beast-foot running very fiercely from my left.
“I will take care of it.”
Carina also said as she fixed her sword.
I stepped forward in place of Karina.
“No, I will.”
While I thought of the soldier, I thought of experimenting once.
I didn’t expect too much since I was still at level 1.
‘Summons.’
When I used the summoning skill by raising all the magic in my body, a blue light flashed around me.

Dig!—
At the same time, a total of 89 soldiers made up of blue light could be seen appearing.
It was a soldier who summoned one person for every 10 mana, but with a blessing, 89 people were summoned with a 10% reduction.
Also, as soon as the soldier was summoned, I felt most of the magical energy in my body disappear as if it had been washed away.
“First of all… attack the monster in front of you.”
Following the instructions, the soldiers silently ran toward the monster without saying a word.
After sending the soldiers, I opened the status window to check my magic power.
mana: (27 + 780) – 801 = [6]
‘My mana has been reduced to 6.’
As the summoning itself is a way to remove my maximum mana, I was able to confirm that my mana had drastically decreased as it is now.
And.
Kweeg!—
When I looked ahead, the beasts were fighting against the soldiers I summoned.
“…”
“…”
Every time the beast shook its long snout, two or three soldiers fell out.
In addition, even the forepaws and tentacles that he wielded were cut or pierced without being able to properly avoid them.
‘Come to think of it, were the soldiers at level 1?’
It means that all abilities, starting with strength, are 1.
However, as expected, the number of thugs was increasing one by one on the body of the ugly people.
This is because when the soldiers on one side were attacked, the other soldiers on the other side stabbed the wooden spears in their hands and attacked.
‘Because it’s still level 1.’
It’s a little better than the scarecrow now, but I thought it might be useful later.
at that time.
[The Warlord’s Summon has risen by 1 level to become Level 2.]
[The pet’s physical abilities are adjusted to level 2.]
‘yes?’
When I was about half dead, I heard a message saying that my level suddenly went up.
The level went up better than I thought.
After that, when there were about 10 soldiers left.
[Summon of the Warlord has risen by 1 level to level 3.]
[The pet’s physical abilities are adjusted to level 3.]
“…?”
I was told that I had risen again and reached level 3.
‘Is the skill so easy to climb?’
While I was thinking about it, the five remaining soldiers managed to kill the vicious tribe.
It took 84 soldiers to catch one, but they caught it without lifting a hand.
By the way, Muel, Soltis, and Zepin, who witnessed this thrilling scene, did not say anything and just stared blankly at my soldiers.
“It’s fine. No, it’s great.”
Conversely, Karina, who knew my job level, nodded and gave a very good evaluation.
He might be weak now, but he knew that if he raised his job level and summon level later, he could change drastically.
“Yes? Do you like this? Are you serious?”
Well, Muel was startled and shouted.
Like it or not, I asked Karina.
“Karina. But did the level go up this well?”
“A level?”
“I heard that the level went up by 2 during the battle.”
When I told her what had happened during the battle, Karina made a rather surprised expression.
