Hoarding in Hell Novel

Chapter 176 one in black (3)

As a result of this raid, Lee Ji-tae came to believe that Hyunmoo had created this place to rescue him.

There may still be some unnatural parts, but once a person is convinced, he thinks only in the direction of proving that it is true.

'I call it confirmation bias.'

As Lee Ji-tae, who had been chasing an enemy butterfly, was attacked by Park Do-ryung's clone, he has no choice but to think that the two were involved in the assassination towards him.

At first, Hyunmoo had no contact with Park Do-ryeong, so it was natural for her to think so.

A savior type like Lee Ji-tae, who sacrifices himself to save others, is bound to be overly self-conscious to some extent.

It's their fault for those who couldn't save these types, and they believe that they should save those who fall into all difficulties.

"Let's just say that's it. But I don't think we have time to talk anymore."

Another sign came from beyond the forest. Unlike the Black Seals, they were heavy and dark. The coming numbers were substantial.

Lee Ji-tae's expression turned heavy again.

"The number is..."

"Did the Flood explode?"

Lee Ji-tae's face was shocked.

"Flood? Oh my God, this is a 5-star dungeon. If the flood explodes here, the Northern Bee..."

And his face was soon contorted with anger.

"Park Do-ryeong, this damn child must be trying to completely bury me..."

Lee Ji-tae seemed completely convinced that Park Do-ryung was trying to kill him.

"Can Park Do-ryung artificially explode the Flood?"

"...Park Do-ryeong has a lot of unknown talent. It must be because he has a lot of experience from the early days of the dungeon. It is not a coincidence that the flood exploded as soon as the clones disappeared. ."

"Really. He's a bad guy."

But Lee Ji-tae shook his head.

"It's not clear if it's a flood yet. Maybe it's because of the binge drinking. But we can't ignore it and go out. If it's true, we need to stop the flood as early as possible."

Then, Lee Ji-tae looked at Hyunmoo.

"Can you help me?"

"Why not?"

It was Hyunmoo who caused the flood.

What Hyunmoo has been doing for the past week has been finding the hearthstone of the dungeon.

He also checked the locations and gimmicks of various boss monsters.

And he left Kirson waiting around the hearthstone, and activated the Flood from the moment he found the black imprint.

The reason was simple.

It's to make sure no one gets out until they catch him.

I didn't care about the return order issue. In the end, as long as the magic has been revealed, the guy will want to catch himself before exiting this dungeon as much as possible.

Whether the black person is Park Do-ryeong or not, he will eventually get caught up in the monsters overflowing with the Flood.

All that was left was to shoot Doryung Park, who was hiding somewhere in the dungeon behind these two human shields.

***

In 5-star dungeons, 'out of regulation' level monsters often appear. Things like the night golems we encountered in Taebaek Dungeon are like that.

The only thing Red Butterfly was dealing with was other mobs in the outskirts.

For example, the skeleton soldiers that the Red Butterfly mainly dealt with were only one-time monsters summoned by the Skeleton Rider.

Skeleton soldiers are usually buried under the ground and waiting, but come to life from the moment the skeleton rider swings the flag and carry out their orders.

With only one Skeleton Rider, the Skeleton Soldiers survive indefinitely. Also, as it attracts skeleton soldiers from the surrounding area, as time goes by, you will be surrounded by countless number of skeleton soldiers.

The level is lower than that of Taebaek Dungeon, but if you fail to suppress it early, the risk will be higher.Of course, within the standards of ordinary hunters.

"Turn it off, things like millet."

Hyunmoo swung his tom in annoyance, smashing the skeleton soldiers around him.

The flames of 'Helburg's disjointed passion' absorbed by the ride heated and burned the surroundings. Skeleton soldiers, vulnerable to heat, were burned while rumbling with fire.

There was no need to use a complicated skill, nor was it necessary to use a brain.

The level of the skeleton soldiers was no different from the werewolves. It was enough to lightly slaughter and pass by.

But Lee Ji-tae didn't seem like that.

Lee Ji-tae scattered his destructive sword heavily, and quickly roamed through the horde of skeleton soldiers with lightning strikes.

The countless blades of the Skeleton Soldiers couldn't even strike Lee Ji-tae.

Lee Ji-tae, engulfed in a thunderbolt, literally split his skeleton soldiers into pieces.

As his lightning trace pierced through, the Skeleton Rider was shattered and scattered without any doubt.

And the split skeleton soldiers were organized by Hyunmoo.

Lee Ji-tae was running like that, but Hyunmoo didn't have to step in and pull out.

It was then.

Suddenly, he saw something running fast, trampling the horde of skeleton soldiers.

It was a headless knight riding a gigantic steed that appeared from the dust, with bone fragments scattered everywhere.

[Spectral Knight (LV 56)]

It was a monster Hyunmoo had seen while walking around the dungeon. It was roughly equivalent to a night class in Taebaek Dungeon.

It was weaker than that, but his durability and attack power were much stronger.

A huge warhorse, almost the size of a medium-sized truck, collided towards Lee Ji-tae as it was.

However, without a sign of embarrassment, Lee Ji-tae gently avoided it and swung his saber sword.

The leg, which was supposed to hit the floor exactly, fell off in an instant, burning white.

The ghost knight swept across the floor and swept the skeleton soldiers.

The place was a mess. However, the ghost knight stood up bravely and raised a huge cavalry spear towards Lee Ji-tae.

Hyunmoo really watched to see Lee Ji-tae's skills, but the fight ended bland.

He lightly evades the fast-piercing spear, cuts the armor's articulations lightly, then strikes the balance and smashed them mercilessly.

It was an incredibly quick ending.

'Like me or... … It must be a little faster.'

Considering that Lee Ji-tae does not have ability correction due to difficulty correction unlike Hyunmoo, it means that Lee Ji-tae's level is still higher than Hyunmoo.

'It's strong, it's strong.'

What makes Lee Ji-tae strong is not simply the difference between having a high level and strong skills.

It was because of the movement acting as if it were predicting the near future.

Lee Ji-tae already knew the dangers Hyunmoo could not foresee on several occasions and showed quick action.

Fortunately, it was that it didn't seem to be at the perfect level yet.

'When I upgraded the Battle Helper, Lee Ji-tae was much stronger.'

It was a movement that Hyunmoo couldn't control. But at this point, the possibility was still visible. Hyunmoo laughed bitterly.

'I must admit that I was arrogant.'

While Hyunmoo decided to be a little humble, Lee Ji-tae was concerned about the red butterfly.

He might have to say he cares about Hyunmoo to be precise.

Naked Butterfly rushed to catch up with Hyunmoo and Lee Ji-tae, but was remarkably efficient and fast in defeating the skeleton soldiers.

The speed of killing enemies and breaking the ranks was now comparable to that of Taeseong's team leader.

'It wasn't like this a week ago.'

It was unbelievable that it had been accomplished in just one week.

He said he learned from Kang Hyunmoo.

Lee Ji-tae, who was trying to raise Naebi as the next-generation runner of the Taeseong clan, could not help but feel skeptical that his abilities were lacking.

He tried to raise the possibility as much as possible, but he was rather blocking it. He couldn't help but think that way.

'And, to John... … .'

When Lee Ji-tae looked at the red butterfly, he had no choice but to think of John, who had already left him.

After moving to Almighty Training, John showed a brighter image, and was also in a state of overcoming chronic drug addiction.

Kang Hyunmoo has something.

Lee Ji-tae could be sure of that.

He had the ability to unleash the potential hidden in him.

And it was an ability that Lee Ji-tae did not have.

Lee Ji-tae felt something rising up.

His sword grew rough, and he split the ghost knight in half at once.

'I knew you were special before anyone else!'

Kang Hyunmoo knew that he was special from the moment he came to the ability test.

So he tried to attract him, thinking that he would come naturally to him even when he refused, without disappointment.

because he is the best

And he gives the best treatment to the best people who recognize his abilities.

But Kang Hyunmoo wasn't like that.

Rather, he caught up in an instant without his help.

The speed at which he strode up was frightening.

Lee Ji-tae grabbed the top and didn't want to miss it, but Kang Hyunmoo seemed to ignore Lee Ji-tae and climb past it.

to the point where the stars can reach.

'why.'

He was the first to reach out to Kang Hyunmoo.

However, the only people he caught and accompanied by were those around him.

'Why me?'

Lee Ji-tae felt his stomach churn.

For the first time he felt motion sick at the height of the summit, where he was located.

With Kang Hyunmoo taking everyone ahead, he felt like he was the only one left at this place in the end.

'Why don't you reach out to me, Kang Hyunmoo?'

***

Kugugu Palace.

As they were quickly heading towards the hearthstone, a roar was heard in the ears of the three of them.

From a distance beyond the forest, a fire was seen that colored the sky red. It was clear that something was going on.

According to Hyunmoo's prediction, this was where Park Do-ryung was headed.

'also.'

Hyunmoo's lips rose.

Park Do-ryeong must have been looking for the best location for a surprise attack. However, there was already an arrangement prepared by Hyunmoo at that location.

As he roamed the dungeon, he encountered tons of monsters, but none of them stood in the way of Hyunmoo.

Except for one guy.

'It will be quite difficult.'Hyunmoo said, pointing in the direction of the sound.

"I saw something, let's go."

“…that’s right.”

Lee Ji-tae's expression looked unusually tired.

Hyunmoo cared about his complexion, but he was so wild he thought it was natural.

Hyunmoo took a mana potion out of his arms and threw it away. Lee Ji-tae looked confused for a moment.

"Drink it all the way. It's better than the one you carry."

But Lee Ji-tae fiddled with the potion and just looked at Hyunmoo.

'Are you in doubt?'

Hyunmoo thought he had done something he could take, so he took a potion from his inventory and threw it at the enemy butterfly.

Red Butterfly drank the potion that Hyunmoo gave her without hesitation.

Hyunmoo also drank the potion. I've done this so far, but if you doubt it, there's nothing you can do about it.

But instead of drinking the potion in the end, Lee Ji-tae put it in his arms.

'I didn't see it that way, but there is a narrow corner inside.'

Still, I thought I wouldn't hold my ankle. His name is Lee Ji-tae, because he is the best hunter in Korea.

The three soon headed into the flames.

The place we arrived at was a large valley.

The valley was already on fire.

Lee Ji-tae looked at the deep dents on the floor.

“Something… it looks like a huge burning tank passed by.”

When Hyunmoo first entered the dungeon, he could tell that the burnt trees he saw were due to the existence that created these traces.

Something heavy, huge, ferocious, and burning.

Boom, kugugugung.

At that moment, a huge explosion and vibration shook the valley. Part of the valley was about to collapse.

"there!"

The red butterfly pointed into the valley and shouted.

"Is the valley... moving?"

Lee Ji-tae said as if doubting his own eyes. But soon he realized he had seen it wrong. It was not the valley that was moving.

It was a siege tank as huge as the depth of the valley.

In the siege tank stacked high like a tower, countless groups of undead were stuck and wriggling like an undead cluster. The siege tank was full of perches as if on fire.

Cannons and burning oil barrels were lined up in guns pierced throughout.

The siege chariot was being pulled by a ghost horse, which the ghost knights rode.

The horse looked like a siege tank, a moving fortress.

[The Siege Tank of the Taken (LV 65)]

It was level 65, not much different from the Red Serpent, but if you included the group of undead attached to it, it could be said that it was far above that level.

There are dozens of skeleton riders, snipers, knights, and even fortified power.

At that moment, the chariot suddenly spewed out dozens of flames.

Cuckoo Kook.

One side of the valley was completely blown away with the explosion. A huge amount of soil was poured out.

Hyunmoo saw Lee Ji-tae clenching his sword. Hyunmoo could soon discover what Lee Ji-tae had seen.

Amidst the countless piles of vomit, a man in black was running fast.

"Park Do-ryeong..."

Lee Ji-tae muttered like a moan.
