Chapter 3: Tutorial (2)

All of the muscles in Hansoo’s body started squirming around at a minuscule level.

Hansoo, who had readied his body, slowly walked towards the goblins, who were crazily running towards him.

It was important to conserve stamina in order to wield his dagger.

Hansoo deflected a goblin’s swinging sword-arm.

Hansoo, who seemed as casual as someone going out on a stroll through the mountains, suddenly changed fiercely, while the goblin was flustered.
He released all the strength that he had built up.

All the runes were gone.

But the same strength, the same stamina, or the same perception had huge differences in effectiveness depending on how they were used.
The body was basically a tool of battle, and depending on the way the tool was used, the final outcomes would have differences like heaven and earth.

Hansoo rushed between the goblins and started slashing madly in all directions.

A running goblin he slashed screamed in a beastly manner and dropped down onto the floor, rolling around.

A crude Podao, which looked much more threatening than a dagger.
There was also a tiny rune.

Hansoo spread out his right hand, grabbed the Podao, and swung it fiercely as he grabbed the rune with his left hand at the time same.

‘My luck is good.’

[Kang Hansoo] Strength: 11

Stamina: 9

As the rune raised agility by 0.1, Hansoo’s status menu changed.

In a sense, one’s strength is what made one faster, but agility was a little different.

As agility rises, the user starts to live in a different dimension.
Every rune stat other than strength and stamina, which were already present in humans, started at 10 due to the stats not normally being present in humans.

Hansoo moved his new, faster body without hesitation towards the incoming goblins and started to cut them into pieces.

Of course, with his current status, no matter how weak goblins were, killing 200 on his own was a bit far-fetched.

The Podao was so feeble that two or three swings broke it, and Hansoo had to keep changing weapons as he fought the goblins.

The people who saw that stopped and stared at each other.

Not from goblins, but from the hands of humans.

It seemed like runes were very important.

And they gained courage as they saw Hansoo, who only seemed to be a college student, fight so well.

The actions were not flashy, but rather only created due to him protecting himself, but as they saw the goblins falling to those slashes, the goblins seemed very weak.

“Fuck…eyy shit I don’t know anymore!”

The people ground their teeth, but carefully approached Hansoo’s back and started fighting.

The goblins stared at the humans who were charging towards them with panicked looks, but then started fighting with loud roars.

“Ahhhhk!”

They each held one dagger.

They knew they would get stronger if they fought.

But even then, they were just ordinary people.

A lot of injuries were occurring from all directions.

However, even in that chaotic situation, Hansoo continued to kill goblins as he absorbed runes and slowly walked forward.

He could hide between the people and fight slowly, as if he were peeling an apple, and kill more leisurely.
But there was a reason why he rushed, despite receiving injuries.

‘There is no time to dilly dally.’

‘There are probably over 10,000.’

There are probably a few hundred of these locations just for Korea.

However, everyone here was a new first year.

The fact that they didn’t come here probably wasn’t due to kindness towards the newbies.

If restrictions like this didn’t exist, all the more experienced would come, kill everyone, and take their runes.

From one point of view, it seemed like the fairy was being benevolent, but Hansoo’s thoughts were different.

It seemed like the protection was made because it would be boring if a strong person came and wiped out everybody.

In 3 months, they would have to collide against people who had been here for 2 or 3 years.
With that in mind, they must become strong, fast.

Due to Hansoo flying around quickly in the front, the fight ended rather quickly.

‘About 16 people died.’

If Hansoo wasn’t here, at least 30 would’ve died.

The surrounding people tiredly stared at him.

“Wow. The grade is really good here. Well, from this point onwards, you all should know how to survive.”

The people couldn’t curse out loud, so they did it inwardly.

“I will get rid of the wall now. From now, do it just like this. Fighting!”

As the fairy disappeared, people started mumbling.
Hansoo shook his head and then checked his stats.

[Kang Hansoo] Strength: 14.3

Stamina: 10.1
Perception 11.2

‘It’s not bad’

As he expected, agility runes didn’t come out easily.

However, compared to the three goblins he had killed when he started off in the past, it was not that bad.

‘I even got something like this.’

It wasn’t a great weapon, but compared to the ones that had lost their edges with a few swings, it was much better.

With the dagger attached inside and the Podao attached by his waist, his whole body had multiple scars, as he had rushed in order to end it fast.

‘Firstly… I won’t be able to meet them.’

On the other hand, Keldian, Kangtae and Eres were 19 to 20 year adventurers.

So, Hansoo thought of the next thing.

The dimensional corrosion of the Abyss was sped up depending on how much the corroded dimension knew about the strength, intel, and skill of the Abyss.

If intel about the Abyss were to spread, the invasion of the Abyss would start earlier.

‘First, strengthening myself is of utmost importance.’

However, having the strength to change that flow of water was the start, and was of utmost importance.

Eres, Kangtae and Keldian.

Unlike him, who had become strong by struggling intensively, each of their actions were close to those posted in a guidebook.
And their survival was because of their strength.

‘How did they say they did it?’

How they had gotten strong in the beginning.

Eres told him.

‘Rejected.’
It didn’t fit his personality, and more than anything, one needed to be at the level of Eres to do that.

Next was Keldian.

Then, Keldian had eaten all the runes and he quickly rushed away.

But Hansoo shook his head.

Also, there was more bad than good in the long term if that were to happen.

Runes didn’t drop in large numbers.

If you look at it from the point of society, coexistence was the answer. That was the reason why Eres, who had included everyone, was able to stay as a leader until the end.

It might be different if they were to kill others, though.

‘How did Kangtae say he did it?’

‘…This doesn’t help either.’

Agility was one of the most useful stats out of the beginning stats.

And there should be a limit to how lucky one can be, killing a tutorial goblin and getting a regeneration rune.

The methods of those three did not fit him.

He needed a way to leap over their standards and rush forward with dominance.

‘Something like this existed.’

The tutorial area, where 10,000 people were trapped for 3 months, contained a secret.
In this place, there was a hidden dungeon.

For a beginner, the difficulty was immense. So, attempting to complete the dungeon would only end in failure. However, just getting to the halfway point would allow one to have an incomparably immense head start.

Becoming one of the Final Brigade meant being one of the top 100 strongest humans.

This world was not fit for mankind to survive, but one thing was clear.

‘First, I must accomplish that.’
Hansoo set his primary goal.
