[Your level has increased . ]
[The Undying Fighter admires your growth . ]
A notification sounded in his ear, but Lee Jin-ah didn’t pay any attention to it .
Moooo!
Instead, all he could hear was the strange cries of the Bulls Warriors surrounding him .
Moo!
The Bulls Warriors, who were basically miniature versions of Minotaurs, with a cow’s head which rested upon the body of an Orc, began to charge towards Lee Jin-ah .
Lee Jin-ah didn’t avoid the charge .
Dressed in the Nemean Lion’s Skin, he charged toward one of the Bulls Warriors with a body that was not much smaller than it .
The bodies of the two monsters collided fiercely .
Clang!
Then with a loud sound, the body of the Bulls Warrior that collided with Lee Jin-ah was sent flying .
Moo?
The Bulls Warriors were stunned by this and couldn’t help but stop .
Using this chance, Lee Jin-ah hit the body of another Bulls Warrior and made it stumble back .
Then, as he looked at these monsters, Lee Jin-ah roared .
“Skeletons, help! Help!” (TL: this made me laugh so hard, I was not expecting it)
Rattle!
Then, as if waiting, Skeleton Soldiers poured in from the sides .
Moo!
The fallen Bulls Warriors could do nothing but cry out under the skeletons’ attacks .
Lee Jin-ah couldn’t help but grit his teeth as he watched this scene .
‘There is no end to this, no end . ’
It was the 10th day since they’d entered the 6 Floor dungeon .
The past few days had passed like a blur to Lee Jin-ah, who now stood on the third floor of the dungeon .
Every day was filled with never ending battles .
At that point, it was impossible for him to estimate how many monsters he had killed since entering the dungeon .
‘But the leveling speed is no joke . ’
Only the ridiculous speed with which his levels rose gave him a glimpse of how many fierce battles he’d fought .
Of course, he didn’t even have the time to feel happy about that fact,
Because the 6 Floor dungeon never gave him the chance .
Prrr!
[The Minotaur’s Fear begins to spread . ]
“Fuck . ”
Minotaur!
It was the moment when this ridiculous monster, boasting a height of over 5 meters, made its appearance .
This was common for 6 Floor dungeons .
Medium sized monsters, which would be boss monsters in other dungeons, could appear without any signs or warning .
And even then, he was lucky that it was medium sized .
‘I’m glad it’s not a large one . ’ (TL: some say flag?)
For 6 Floor dungeons, it would be nothing strange even if a large monster made a sudden appearance .
He had already experienced this on the second floor .
‘At least this is better than the Giant Lizard from the second floor . ’
Giant Lizard .
From Lee Jin-ah’s perspective, compared to the Giant Lizard with a 70meter long body against whom he’d had to play the role of Jerry from Tom and Jerry, the Minotaur was a welcome sight .
“But what the hell is that bastard, Kim Woo-jin, doing? Hey, skeleton!”
Rattle!
“What the hell is your master doing? Taking a shit?”
OF course, the most welcome thing was the fact .
Roar!
“Huh?”
[The Minotaur’s horn has been cut off . ]
[The Minotaur lets out a pained cry . ]
[The Minotaur has been weakened greatly . ]
‘Oh my God . ’
The fact that his boss was the one who could turn a Minotaur into a lump of meat in an instant .
‘He’s the real monster . ’
From Lee Jin-ah’s perspective, that was the most welcome fact .
In one smooth motion, Kim Woo-jin cut off the Minotaur’s horn, and then cut its body into large pieces with the Ganjang and Makya as he fell to the floor .
[Your level has increased . ]
It was a pleasant notification .
But Kim Woo-jin didn’t pay attention to it .
Instead, he spoke to Lee Jin-ah through the skeleton beside him with the Grim Reaper’s mask .
“Retreat . ”
Hearing this, Lee Jin-ah couldn’t help but ask back .
“Retreat? We hunted them all, didn’t we? Aren’t you going to take their leather?”

Kim Woo-jin didn’t repeat himself .
He didn’t have to .
Kiieeh!
[A Wyvern is looking at you . ]
There were five Wyverns!
These hyena’s of the sky cried loudly as they were drawn to the sweet smell of blood .
This was what 6 Floor dungeons were like .
A place where predators could become prey in an instant .
It was a place where one had to prioritize survival over securing their hunts .
And that was the reason that Kim Woo-jin had decided to retreat without hesitation .
The same was true for Lee Jin-ah .
Lee Jin-ah, who confirmed the presence of the Wyverns, spoke to the skeleton connected to Kim Woo-jin beside him .
“Hey, why aren’t you running away?!”
At the same time, the rest of the skeletons retreated, and KIm Woo-jin also prepared to retreat from the battlefield .
‘This is the fourth time . ’
In addition, this was the fourth time that the prey they hunted had been stolen by the Wyvern group .
‘They’re tailing us . ’
The Wyverns were now waiting for Kim Woo-jin and Lee Jin-ah to attack before swooping down for the spoils .
It wasn’t something pleasant .
‘How troublesome . ’
What was even more annoying was the fact that Kim Woo-jin currently had no way to deal with this Wyvern group .
Wyverns were strong monsters .
They had strong defense, so flimsy attacks would do nothing to them, jaws and teeth that could bite through steel, and claws that were unimaginably sharp .
But the trickiest part was the fact that they could fly very fast .
They were much faster than the Hatchling .
The only way to kill a Wyvern was to end it as soon as it touched the floor .
‘If it was just one or two then it wouldn’t be that big of an issue…’
Of course, that was something Kim Woo-jin was capable of .
If there were just one or two of them, Kim Woo-jin would have been able to deal with them .
‘The rest would be hard . ’
However, this group consisted of five Wyverns .
Even if he did kill two, he had no way of dealing with the other three .
And if he did kill their companions, the Wyverns would attack him ceaselessly until one of them ceased to exist .
“Should I use the skill stone to raise the mastery of Skeleton Knight?’
Currently, Kim Woo-jin’s Skeleton Knight skill was B rank, and through the buff from the Plus Ring, it had become an A rank skill .

That meant that if he raised the rank of the Skeleton Knight skill with the skill stone, it would reach S rank .
‘That’s enough . ’
From his estimations, Kim Woo-jin knew that the S rank Skeleton Knight skill was enough for him to defeat the Wyverns .
More importantly, as the number he was able to summon changed, the range of tactics that he could use increased as well .
‘Is it worth it to hunt Wyverns?’
But from a different perspective, it could be said that using the Skill Stone(A) just to defeat a group of Wyverns was an excessive investment .
At that moment, Kim Woo-jin had many skills that were B rank .
The Book of the Dead, Vampire, Blood Golem, and Dullahan, which he currently only had the skill page for .
Of course, the Skeleton Knight skill was worth upgrading .
Kim Woo-jin thought about it for a moment before he decided to stop worrying .
[A Skill Stone(A) has been used . ]
[The rank of the Skeleton Knight skill has increased by one . ]
[The number of Skeleton Knights that can be summoned has increased . ]
Kim Woo-jin decided to use the skill stone .
‘If I encounter the Wyverns again, I won’t need to think about it . Four times are already more than enough . ’
He chose to leave .
[You have slain a Minotaur . ]
[Earned the Achievement ‘Minotaur Hunter’ . ]
While Kim Woo-jin made up his mind to get rid of the Wyvern, they began feasting on the chopped up corpse of the Minotaur .
‘I’ll have to forget about the Minotaur’s leather . ’
It was the moment when the excellent material, Minotaur’s leather, which could be used to make great armor, had been wasted .
‘Right, I will definitely kill these guys . ’
At the same time, it was the time when the Minotaur had become bait for the Wyverns .
[The Emissary of the Underworld admires your achievements . ]
Then he heard another notification .
[The rank of the Skeleton Knight skill has increased by one . ]
[Due to the effect of the Plus Ring, the Skeleton Knight skill has reached the Transcendent rank . ]
[The Skeleton Knights’ Riding Skill has been activated . ]
At that moment, the look in Kim Woo-jin’s eyes changed .
“Lee Jin-ah . ”
Then he immediately gave a signal .
“Distract the Wyverns for a bit . ”
…
What were the trickiest monsters to hunt in dungeons?
Sponsored Content
When asked this question, even if it was a hundred people, the answer would always be the same .
Flying type monsters were the trickiest .
It wasn’t just monsters .
Even for mankind, flying had completely changed the game called war .
After all, weren’t missiles equipped with nuclear warheads the things that could end any human war?
It was natural for players to consider flying type monsters as tricky .
And in fact, monsters were the same .
Flying monsters were still troublesome targets for monsters that couldn’t fly .
That was the reason why the level 120 skill Fly that players with the Keeper of Knowledge halo could learn was so valuable, even though it was only a rare skill .
[The Skeleton Knight has used his Riding skill to tame the Wyvern . ]
Kieeeh!
Kyaha!
It was also the reason why Lee Jin-ah looked at the Skeleton Knight who was riding a Wyvern with a look of shock .
‘Oh my God . ’
In truth, the scene that Lee Jin-ah was looking at wasn’t so much shocking as it was horrifying .
Lee Jin-ah had rushed towards the five Wyverns who had been eating the Minotaur and distracted them long enough for the Skeleton Knights to appear and use their newly gained Riding skill .
Only three of them were successful .
The remaining two managed to break free, and tried to escape crazily, but they ended up decorating the ground with their blood after Kim Woo-jin killed them with his swords .
In other words, the two Wyverns now lay on the ground in pieces .
Kiiiek!
Kyaha!
The sight of a Skeleton Knight letting out its bizarre howl in conjunction with its Wyvern mount was horrifying no matter who saw it .
‘They’re fucked . ’
Lee Jin-ah turned to look at Kim Woo-jin .
Even Lee Jin-ah could easily imagine what kind of extraordinary scene this combination would bring .
What would happen if Kim Woo-jin, who used tactics and strategies that ordinary people would never think of, was given such a strategic weapon?
Lee Jin-ah didn’t even want to imagine it .
But one thing was clear .
‘Every monster in this 6 Floor dungeon is fucked . ’
This was not good news for the monsters living in the 6 Floor dungeon .
“Lee Jin-ah . ”
“Hu-, huh?”
“We’ll change strategies . ”
And Kim Woo-jin had no intention of keeping this news to himself .
“Prepare the body . ”
