279 – Clue (3)
[You have entered the dungeon.]
[Step into the ‘Abandoned Research Institute’. The dark energy and wandering ghosts are conveyed through our skin. Some of the abilities are drastically reduced at random.]
[The special power of the ‘Bright View Index’ rune maintains the target’s clear mind. It is not shaken by any curse or condition.]
As soon as you enter, colorful information windows greet you.
A debuff that randomly reduces one stat from the moment you enter.
I didn’t know the exact figure because I had prevented it in advance with the [Mysterious Index] Rune, but looking at the expression ‘significant decline’ written, it seemed like it was not an easy level.
Furthermore, following In , A unique name has appeared again.
.
A name that could be the name of this dungeon, or a specific area within the dungeon.
Whatever it was, it told us that the place we had stepped into was by no means an ordinary dungeon.
Besides.
[This is a dungeon that has already been renovated by the ‘adaptors’ of the dungeon! There is a high probability that it is structured in a completely different way from a typical dungeon.]
[Those who do not receive permission from the adaptors become enemies to all targets within the dungeon!]
I have never seen an information window in an ominous shape while I was conquering dungeons.
The ominous feeling became reality in less than three seconds.
“Master! “It’s an enemy attack!”
An archer clan member who is good at exploration shouts.
At the same time.
Kuggggg-
Shhhhh-!!
A large rock with flames rising above us hit us.
If what you see is correct, that is fire attribute magic, especially meteor type magic.
Not the [Light Meteor] That throws several small fire rocks, but the [Power Meteor] Of a huge size and blazing flames.
It was a magic also called the flower of fire attribute attack magic.
Furthermore, the flame of [Power Meteor] Is unique…
It was stained an extremely dark black.
It was a phenomenon that showed that the person who cast the spell was not ordinary.
“Damn it, everyone…” !!”
“…… !!”
Kwa, kwaaang-!!
Incredible amount of mana and high speed of drop.
The attack seemed as if it had been waiting and prepared in advance…
There was no time or space to deploy wide-area defense.
The clan members gathered in one place had to individually defend themselves or attempt to evade.
“Big….”
“The shield… !!”
Fortunately, our clan is an elite group where everyone has outstanding skills.
The response was not slow at all, and the subsequent response was neat.
Among them, there was a clan member who held a shield and directly blocked Meteor.
Thanks to this, we were able to minimize damage to our allies even in sudden attacks.
“Damn it….”
But it didn’t change the fact that I got hit.
A prepared magical attack comes from the entrance of the dungeon.
Even though it was an adaptor’s dungeon, it had a very unfavorable structure.
Even in , A monster appeared from the entrance, but it was literally a monster and it was not an attack aimed at us precisely like this.
In other words, those who threw [Power Meteor] At us thought of us as enemies from the beginning and prepared to attack.
“Master, over there!”
The clan member who first detected the attack pointed his hand again.
A place directly in front of your field of vision.
A small hill that looked like an empty plain.
On top of that…
Rurrr-!
With a roar, a group of horse-shaped monsters were coming in droves.
All clan members could not hide their embarrassment at the enormous amount.
“… Centaur?”
“No! “The upper body is shaped like a lion!”
“Then is it a manticore? But I don’t have wings… !!”
“Damn – I feel like a chimera with no information.”
He runs with the legs of a horse and his upper body is quite tall, so I thought he was a Class B monster, a centaur… As the distance got closer, a different shape was clearly visible.
The lower body is a horse, the upper body is a lion.
It has no wings and a normal tail, so it is not even a Class A monster Manticore.
Rather, it seems to surpass the previous two monsters in terms of mobility and threat.
He was a monster of a type I had never seen before.
‘… ‘How strong is it?’
Looking at the scene, he bites his lip gently.
Chimera-type monsters have often appeared in other dungeons, but the ones charging at us now are chimeras about which we have no information.
A monster that was most likely ‘created’ by the Ludenarch School.
Of course, it was impossible to calculate his characteristics, abilities, or even his level.
For now, he had to test his skills in person to confirm his skills.
“Deputy Master, take command!”
I turned my head and looked at Master.
She must have already expected me to jump to the front line, so she lightly nodded her head.
“Don’t worry.”
Yoo Eun-seol’s strength is not just that she is an S-class holder.
He has been an independent holder rather than a member of a large clan, so he has a lot of experience in raids and parties, and in most cases, he has been in charge of their command.
And above all…
He has a lot of experience fighting with me, the clan master, so he knows me very well.
Yoo Eun-seol possesses all of those strengths at the same time.
For this reason, she calmly led the remaining clan members even in this urgent situation.
From Noble mtl dot com
Recruiting her as a member of her clan and appointing her as deputy master… Maybe after making , She might have been the best choice.
‘Let’s go, J.Ten.’
-I waited, master.
I called Jayten through [Call of Contract].
Normally, I would have called Tyrbond, but now, with the enemies rushing in at once, the battlefield is land.
Jayten, who had the Assault Rune, was a much more effective choice.
Awww-!!
Koo, coo coo coo!!
[Wolf’s Run] Unfolds with Jayten’s cries.
The guy used all the speed he had and ran through the dungeon at incredible speed.
It was clear that the enemies also had assault runes, but Jayten’s assault completely overcame the disadvantage of starting late.
Gugugugugu-!!
In an instant, the distance between enemies narrows.
The moment right before confronting them.
I already had the [Wyvern Spear] In my hand.
‘Accel Piercing.’
The proprietary preemptive strike device explodes on the chimera horde.
Although I did not use [The World’s Best Racehorse] Myself, the ‘vehicle’ had already accelerated by using its own charge.
[Accel Piercing] Could be used at any time while the assault was in progress.
Go go go go!!
Paaat-!!
Khehehehe-!!!
The tip of a spear filled with magic splits the skin of enemies.
Horrifying crying sounds and intense pounding sounds.
And…
The blood and flesh of enemies splashing everywhere.
The group of enemies that confronted us were quickly defeated.
Jayten’s charge and my [Accel Piercing].
No matter how powerful this combo was, it was difficult for the enemies to be defeated so easily.
So I had a hunch.
‘These bastards are weak.’
Of course, that doesn’t mean they are monsters below Class C.
It means that they are weaker than we had feared due to lack of information. They were monsters with at least B-level to A-level magic power and strength.
In terms of strategy, it is slightly weaker than Jurgen.
In that case, the team had enough strength to overcome with the cooperation of the clan members behind them.
‘Jay Ten.’
-Okay.
Jayten had already predicted what I was thinking.
Although he is a werewolf, he has a very good fighting sense.
In the current situation where the two of us rushed in blindly, Jayten knew well that we couldn’t sweep away the enemies with just the two of us.
So I am.
At the end of Jayten’s charge…
I just kicked the guy’s body and jumped up into the sky.
[Contractor ‘Jayten’ used ‘Emergency Escape’, a derivative skill of the ‘Law of Contract’ rune.]
Nearly hundreds of chimeras.
The situation where they all rushed towards us.
I ran away from there, flying into the sky, and Jay Ten used the [Emergency Escape] Skill and disappeared from the dungeon.
Breath created by understanding each other’s intentions.
From the beginning, we had no plans to deal with them.
And.
‘Call of the Covenant.’
Once again.
Calling another sleeping contractor.
Bringing in two contractors at once.
Originally, this would have been close to impossible given my leadership ability, but thanks to the [Order of Harmony] Loaned from Professor Kang Dong-wook and the association, this feat became possible.
At least when it comes to actions related to contracts…
Almost all restrictions had disappeared.
-It’s been a while, master.
‘That’s right. ‘It’s been a really long time.’
The contractor brought in is Tyrbond.
Since we jumped into the sky in the first place, we needed a being that could fly to avoid falling.
I landed cleanly in the air on Tyrbond’s back.
Immediately, he took out a signal flare from his magic bag and fired it into the sky.
A signal to notify clan members behind.
In fact, it was for this task that he so recklessly jumped into the enemy camp.
And I looked straight ahead…
I asked Tyrbond, who had begun his flight.
‘You know what to do, right?’
-Human.
‘Yes. ‘We have to find the humans among the monsters.’
Tirbond may seem crazy about magic stones, but he shows terrible judgment in battle.
There is one place where his eyes and mine reach at the same time.
The wizard who casted [Power Meteor] When entering the dungeon.
An enemy who may be a member of the Ludenarch School.
I had to find him first.
