Chapter 33
Chapter 33 - After the Dungeon Clearing Contest (3),
Seo-joon and Man-cheol almost ran around the dungeon.
It takes about 10 minutes for Seojun to raid one dungeon.
Considering that other participants were generally 30 minutes, Seo-joon's raid speed was overwhelming.
In addition, Mancheol's driving skills and way-finding sense were unrivaled, and he arrived an average of 15 minutes earlier than the expected arrival time indicated by the navigation.
With these synergies combined, Seo-joon literally ran around the dungeon.
Perseok.
As Seo-jun swung the spear, a skeleton collapsed powerlessly with the feeling of riding on the tip of the spear.
Then, when Seo-joon raised his head, the skeletons filled his gaze.
Tadak. follow up
At the same time, the sound of teeth grinding loudly came to Seo-joon's ears.
“Whoa! There are many.”
Seo-joon looked at the group of skeletons slowly approaching and tightly wrapped his arms around his spear.
Even if he counted roughly, the number easily passed three digits, but Seo-jun was not very nervous.
That's also true, because Skeleton is a 1-star monster and is so weak that even ordinary people could beat it with a stick.
Of course, it was impossible in reality because of the mana shield, but it was so much that I wondered if it was really a monster in terms of combat power.
Seo-joon jumped up, kicking off the ground as if he were advancing.
And as soon as he landed in the center of the group of skeletons, he swung his spear wide.
Perseus seat.
Then, the skeletons were swept away in a long semicircle.
The skeletons could not stand the blow Seo-jun wielded and crumbled lightly.
“Certainly, changing weapons makes it much easier.”
Seojun looked at the window he was holding.
Seo-jun was already looking forward to what the spear of Longinus sold at the transcendent academy would be like if it was just a spear made by a skilled artisan.
“It's not like you can fight the swordsman, right?”
Seo-joon laughed at himself.
No matter how you think about it, it wasn't.
Crackle.
At that moment, the skeletons came pouring in again.
“Let’s finish it quickly.
Seojun continued to organize the skeletons.
It took Seo-jun less than 10 minutes to arrange hundreds of skeletons.
Whoops.
Seojun came out after arranging all the skeletons.
Skeleton bones were dangling from Seo-jun's shoulders.
“one!”
And the squat that follows without fail.
Seo-joon laid down the bones in front of Man-cheol, who shook his head.
“I’ll put it down here.”
draw
Mancheol immediately sat down and started working.
The dismantling work required from the skeleton was bone marrow harvesting.
In the first place, there was nothing to be gained from a skeleton with only bones.
If it was a lich, the bones themselves would have been of great value, but these were the bones of a 1-star monster, Skeleton.
Literally, the only thing that could be obtained was the bone marrow.
Still, the bone marrow of these skeletons was used as an ingredient for potions.
However, the amount that came out was insignificant and the work was more difficult than expected, so it was a common monster to just throw away.
so that.
“Hey… what are you doing?”
The public officials in the dungeon couldn't help but be stunned by the actions of the two.
No, it was an absurd situation from the time Seo-joon came out with the bone in the first place.
“Oh, you don’t have to worry about it.”
But Seo-joon waved his hand, saying not to worry.
Civil servants wanted to do that more than anyone else, but they couldn't help but pay attention to the sight.
However, whether they knew that feeling or not, Seo-joon and Man-cheol were busy continuing the conversation.
“Isn’t 20 seconds enough for you?”
“What about 20 seconds? 10 seconds.”
At the same time, Mancheol skillfully inserted a bone marrow harvester into the bone.
Then, the bone marrow was sucked into the harvester.
At first glance, it seemed like a simple task of inserting a bone harvester, but in reality, Seo-jun was well aware that it was not.
That's right, the bones coming out of a single skeleton are hundreds of pieces.
However, there were only a few bones with bone marrow among them, and even the location was different for each skeleton.
And since the bones cannot be harvested unless the exact location of the bone marrow is poked, it was a difficult task that required discerning eyes and delicate senses even if they looked low.
It is said that Seo-joon can be easily distinguished due to Chi-ron's senses, but ordinary people, so it was not Man-cheol.
“Are you really looking for better than I thought, mister? I thought this would be a little tricky.”
“How much is the jjambab I worked for at a transport company? Eh, this place is empty.”
Nevertheless, while talking, Mancheol accurately separated the bones with marrow from those without.
So the work continued.
“one!”
“oh. This bone has a bit of marrow.”
Aww.
And the civil servants who watched all the spectacle.
“What am I… looking at?”
His hairless child eventually ascended to heaven.
plus that day.
There was a situation in which countless public officials in charge of the contest dungeon ascended to heaven in absurdity.
The Dungeon Clearing Contest is a contest hosted by the central government, and to be precise, the Dungeon Management Team under the Ministry of Public Administration and Security supervised the work.
Of course, what the dungeon management team does is to manage and supervise dungeons that occur in Korea.
In addition, by calculating the break time of non-raid dungeons, the hunter team of the same Ministry of Public Administration and Security requested cooperation.
Or they were in charge of commissioning the work to guilds or raids that cooperate with the government.
In a word, it could be said that dungeons that occur in Korea must go through the hands of the dungeon management team.
“Dae-ri Kim. The dungeon clearing contest that took place today. Are you done writing the report?”
And Shin Young-seok was none other than the person holding the position of team leader of the dungeon management team.
Dae-ri Kim replied to Shin Young-seok’s words.
“yes. I cleaned it up and put it on the team leader’s desk.”
“okay? You've been through a lot.”
Shin Young-seok nodded and went to his desk.
Then, several reports were placed neatly on the desk.
“Let's see...”
Youngseok Shin sat down and looked over the report slowly.
< List of dungeon notices >
[List of priority dungeons: 541]
[Number of dungeons processed: 522
]
The purpose of the dungeon clearing contest was to deal with dungeons that were not raided.
Therefore, the dungeons that needed to be dealt with first, that is, dungeons with an imminent break, needed to be dealt with first, and on the first day, those dungeons were announced first.
Even so, not everything was processed, but the dungeon clearing contest lasted for a week anyway, so there was no big worry.
“Still, this time it was handled quite a bit. I thought there would be 100 left.”
Shin Young-seok handed over the reports one after another.
Procedures for handling leftover corpses, where various budgets are used, etc.
There were miscellaneous information related to the contest.
And the last thing, the number of participant dungeons processed.
“oh. 16 pieces. You did quite a bit.”
Shin Young-seok exclaimed at the first number he saw.
Even though they are 1-2 star level monster dungeons, it takes an average of 30 minutes to raid at the level of students.
In addition, considering the travel time between dungeons, the time it takes to raid one dungeon is approximately 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes.
If you consider the time to eat and rest, the average was only 6-8 per day.
In that sense, 16 belonged to a very large number of axes.
“For some reason, the number of dungeons processed was high. With 16, it would be number one as of now.”
Shin Young-seok turned over a page of the report to check the rankings of the participants.
however.
[2nd place: Lee So-yeon (16)]
“Huh?”
Second place? 16?
“Who raided 17?”
Shin Young-seok slightly raised his gaze and checked the name above it.
and.
[1st place: Seojun Kim - 32 items]
“What?! 32?!?”
Shin Young-seok jumped up from his seat without realizing it and shouted.
The sudden action caught the attention of the people in the office, but Shin Young-seok had no time to care.
“No, in just one day…”
Shin Young-seok turned his head and gestured to Dae-ri Kim, who was looking at him blankly.
“Dae-ri Kim! wait for a sec.”
Then Dae-ri Kim slowly approaches.
“What is your problem?”
“What is this?”
“What are you talking about…”
“Isn’t this report wrong?”
Shin Young-seok said, pointing his finger at the ‘[1st place: Kim Seo-joon - 32]' written on the report.
“Look here. 32 first place. There’s no way this could be done in one day.”
“Ah… that’s it.”
Dae-ri Kim nodded as if he finally understood.
“I was very suspicious too, so I checked here and there and nothing was wrong.”
“You really raided 32?”
“yes. The dungeons and dungeon movement lines were extremely clean, and above all, the dungeon supervisors said that the raid took less than 10 minutes.”
“what? 10 minutes? Does that make sense?”
“I checked several times, and not just one or two, but all 32 of them said that.”
At Dae-ri Kim's words, Young-seok Shin showed a blank expression for a moment.
and conclusions drawn.
“Isn’t this… not a student? Or did someone help?”
“Of course I checked, but… there was no problem with the regulations.”
“No cheating? Where are you a student at the academy?”
“Dream Academy is a small academy located in Eunpyeong-gu, Seoul.”
“Dream Academy?”
Shin Young-seok tilted his head several times before speaking.
“for a moment. Wasn't that the academy run by the swordsman's granddaughter?”
“Are you the granddaughter of the Sword Master?”
This time, Dae-ri Kim tilted his head a few times before speaking.
“ah! no wonder! When I said it was a name I had heard somewhere, it was there.”
and the two facing each other.
“…”
“…”
The two of them fell silent as a sudden thought came to them.
After a while, Shin Young-seok said with a curious look.
“This... Didn't the Sword Saint intervene?”
“... Let's check it out.”
Dae-ri Kim hurriedly returned to his seat, his complexion white.
And Shin Young-seok looked at Dae-ri Kim and turned his gaze back to the report.
[1st place: Kim Seo-joon - 32]
“What the hell did you do...”
Shin Young-seok didn't know what to think of this.
A building located in Noryangjin, Seoul.
The sign of the building read ‘East Academy', but from the looks of it, the whole building seemed to be East Academy.
As if to prove that fact, there were many aspiring professional hunters inside the large building, and training and classes for each subject were being conducted on each floor.
Lee So-yeon was a student at such an East Academy.
And now. Lee So-yeon was heading to the top floor of the East Academy.
There were several reasons for this.
So-yeon Lee is a rising star at East Academy, or she is the daughter of Seok-man Lee, the director of East Academy.
However, So-yeon knew better than anyone else that the steps she was taking now were not simply for that reason.
Soyeon opened the door on the top floor of the academy.
“You missed first place.”
Then Lee Seok-man's words came immediately.
Lee Seok-man, a former A-class hunter and the current director of East Academy.
“sorry.”
Soyeon just bowed her head at his cold words.
“Do you think it will end with an apology?”
“...”
Lee So-yeon kept her mouth shut.
Then what do you mean?
No, what can I do better here?
Soyeon did the best she could.
He split his sleeping time, eliminated rest time, and even skipped meals to raid.
That's 16.
I'm still at my limit, so what else can I do here?
“If you lose first place this time, the damage to East Academy’s image will be enormous.”
“…I will try harder.”
But So-yeon just swallowed them all.
Lee Seok-man looked at So-yeon blankly and said,
“32. Do you think this is a possible figure?”
“...”
So-yeon didn’t answer, but in fact, she thought it didn’t make sense.
In the first place, it is physically impossible in terms of time. So-yeon, who had raided 16, felt it keenly.
I don't know if I raided within 10 minutes of each dungeon.
No, even if that were the case, considering the distance between dungeons, it would be impossible to wake up after 32 deaths.
However, Lee Seok-man nodded and said.
“I think it is possible.
His next word.
“If only someone had subtly helped me.”
“That means…”
“So-yeon, do as you do. I'll take care of the rest.”
Soyeon kept her mouth shut at the cold words of Shinseok.
It was because he knew very well that he meant to cheat.
In a word, since I cheated first, it means that I will cheat on this side as well.
So-yeon couldn't know in detail what the method was, but judging from her father's actions, that is, Lee Seok-man's actions, it must not have been simple.
In a way, it could be said that it was an eye for an eye.
But before that, it was first to make sure that the other party committed cheating.
However, Lee Seok-man says that it went well.
So-yeon could only think that Lee Seok-man had cheating in mind in the first place.
“Are you reluctant?”
“...no.”
“Don’t be afraid to think. In the end, moving according to profit is the law of the world. As a result, it is important who won and what benefits were gained, but the process is not important.”
Soyeon neither nodded nor shook her head.
“You're not really thinking about the truth, are you?”
Then Lee Seok-man's question continued.
“…Absolutely not.”
“Jinsu was stupid. I don't think you're stupid enough to do such a stupid thing.”
“of course. Do not worry.”
Soyeon nodded her head and left the room.
Click.
After leaving the room, Soyeon trudged along.
However, with each step, certain memories passed through Soyeon's head one by one.
‘So-Yeon-ah, since ancient times, a professional hunter must have something in his heart that must never be compromised.'
‘It's funny. Who in the world thinks like that these days? I'm a professional hunter just to make money.'
‘Ugh! The world is like that, so will I be able to use it that way too? wait and see Because this brother will become a professional hunter that makes people's hearts beat.'
‘Oh, please, please don't say such a thing anywhere, okay? If people laugh at me, it'll embarrass me too.'
‘what? Is this brother embarrassing?'
‘Uh. Very.'
those eyes.
Those eyes that can no longer be seen.
“If you're dead, don't appear in front of me anymore.”
So-yeon moved her steps briskly, as if she were shaking off a rising memory.
