Hoarding in Hell Novel

Chapter 45 Ready (2)

From Hyunmoo's experience, he would acquire skills or traits when he crossed the threshold of death.

I think I've seen a similar story in a documentary about Hunter.

A story about a hunter who overcame the hurdles of life and death or overcame adversity and acquired new skills or characteristics. People loved those stories.

But it's not as common as you might think. Aside from overcoming adversity, certain conditions had to be met.

Hyunmoo also died easily, so it felt like he got it easily, but the process of acquiring the trait was not easy at all.

Poisonous blood was acquired only after dying dozens of times by eating fine dust, contagious characteristics were acquired by dying from malaria, and strength characteristics were acquired by dying after being beaten like a dog by a scarecrow.

'Of course, the general skill was obtained very easily.'

General is general, so let's move on. Who cares about things in general? Hyunmoo also counted the number of skills he had, starting with the rarest level. Production was perceived as a function, not a skill.

Hyunmoo looked again at the Fortified Acid potion.

Hyunmoo looked at it for a moment, then quickly shook his head.

'no no. That's not it. You crazy.'

Today, I'm already tired of making Legendary items. My whole body looks like it's going to split, so what else are you doing here?

Besides, acidity is not Dokdo in the first place. It's just a chemical.

But if you think about it, the toxicity in fine dust is just a toxic substance. There's no reason to have a 'contagious' trait just because you've been bitten by a mosquito. Contagion is a characteristic of bacteria or viruses.

If such irreconcilable properties are tied as 'poison' just because they are harmful, then there is no reason not to be acidic.

'No, what else am I trying to convince myself of?'

Hyunmoo had already been given acid potions. It was time for him to hold Kir's hand. I didn't want to go through the pain of melting my whole body around the part where I got the potion again. However, I did not hear the message that the poison had become stronger at that time.

'Looks like it wasn't enough. You didn't get poisonous blood or contagiousness in a day or two, did you?'

So for example... … What if you drink it at all instead of pouring it?

No, that's crazy. Then, if you die, you will lose all of the extra survival experience you have accumulated so far.

Even if you don't use the privilege of the title of 'Last Person' today, you already know from experience that it's useless if you die in an instant.

Can not. shouldn't

sorry. It was a crowd.

Hyunmoo resurrected her past after being resurrected.

I wondered if it was necessary to recall the painful process again, but in fact, even Hyunmoo himself did not know how the process went. Because it was conducted in a state of semi-saneness.

If he doesn't want to be reminded too much while he's doing it, let's just move on.

Hyunmoo drank a lot of stamina recovery potions and took a sip of the acid potion, thinking that he would only try one sip.

It was just one sip, really just one sip. The problem was that the acid potion punctured the tongue as well as the jaw. Of course, I couldn't drink anything with a hole in my chin.

In addition, Hyunmoo's life came to a standstill as the acidic potion flowed down the hole along the chin and down to his neck.

At that moment, the health recovery potions that Hyunmoo drank lit up. The potions that stayed in his intestines began to heal Hyunmoo's body, which had reached the sound of kneading, quickly. The problem was that the acid potion melted the body faster.

The pain paralyzed the brain. The acid was still burning the body, and there was a limit to recovery.

Hyunmoo couldn't stand it, so he decided to use one method. After all, what happened was to drink all the acidic potions cleanly, achieve the purpose, and end the suffering by dying and reviving.

Hyunmoo inserted an acid potion into the hole in his throat.

And the 'last person' title privilege was exhibited.

The last one-person perk is not completely healed, but only about 50% of HP is healed very quickly. Because of this, Hyunmoo could not die as soon as he wanted, and he died slowly in the agony of the internal organs of his body melting.

It was there. No more memories came to mind because they were abstract and blurry.

When he was resurrected, he felt like he had given up on something as a human being.

"...well, it's because the attribute has been added."

Hyunmoo glanced at the blood dripping with a bloody dagger. As soon as the red blood came into contact with the air, it turned black and boiled. A drop of blood left a hole the size of a finger in the cement floor.

"If Yu-min makes a mistake and bites his tongue, it's going to cause a lot of trouble."

Hyunmoo wanted to see Yumin again. But instead, he took out caramel as a reward and put it in his mouth. At this point, he looked worthy of a caramel award.

Come to think of it, the bleeding dagger could be used for healing purposes, but I wondered if it would apply even if I had poisonous blood. However, there was no object to be tested.

If you're experimenting with Kirsson, he's not likely to like it very much if you're willing to poison him and then stick a dagger.

At least, Hyunmoo didn't want to do that to the person who saved his life.

'By the way, how do you differentiate between an enemy and an ally?'

Is it just a distinction between hostility and solidarity?

Reality is different from games. There are no clearly defined criteria. There are many cases where they can be both enemies and ally.

Just as Hyunmoo was about to immerse himself in philosophical reflection, Kirsson appeared at the corner of the crossroads.

"Kiruk, boss."

Kirsson politely greeted Hyunmoo. At his waist was a weapon that Hyunmoo had made. It wasn't the dagger he was using, it was a short sickle. The same sickle used for harvesting.

Hyunmoo recalled the performance of the item he looked at with single-piece glasses.

[Winter Harvester's Scythe (Legendary)]

[Classification: Non-mainstream]

[Physical attack: medium low, Magic attack: medium low, Penetration: medium]

[Special Ability: You can track nearby living things, and every time you kill an enemy, you inflict a stack of Frost on all nearby enemies.]

[Note: This is a sickle used by ghost slaves known as the Winter Duke's Hounds. It is said that the Winter Duke is extremely reluctant to show himself, and whenever it is time to go out, he unleashes the winter harvesters and punishes those who roam or spy out the window. I failed to observe the peacock in winter due to poor visibility, but I will definitely... … .]

Kirsson has shown great respect for Hyunmoo ever since he was handed over his weapon.

Until now, it had felt like he was being forced to deal with the villagers, but now he seemed to be really submissive to his master. He seemed to understand what it meant to obey the strong.

"Did you like that weapon that much?"

"Of course. Kiruk. Boss."

Kirsson smiled proudly and held out a map. The map was clearly more dense and detailed than before.

"I've just finished reconnaissance north. Kiruk."

The most notable part was one of the 'Attention Needs' areas that Lenian had previously marked.

Kirson didn't even know what it was, and Lenian only described it as bluntly large.

There was a drawing of an outlet on it.

"...what is this?"

"Kiruk? Uh, probably an orc."

Oh, I guess I was trying to depict a pig, not an outlet.

'By the way, Orc? Why did Lenian describe that as scary?'

Of course, I thought there must have been something to the point of emphasizing whether there was something not scary in Lenian's eyes. But Orkani. Like the goblin, it was an opponent that could not be taken seriously.

'No. In hell, even goblins became red cap goblins and became completely crazy people, but the orcs were worse, they wouldn't be weak.'

"Does it look dangerous?"

Kirson had a worried expression on his face.

"Honestly, Kiruk. It's hard to answer. There is an orc standing around, a kit. If it's just one, I can do anything with the weapon the boss gave me. But..."

"By the way?"

"I'm convinced I shouldn't get too close."

don't come close Although it has no basis or logic, Hyunmoo highly praised Kirsson's opinion. In this crazy world, your sixth sense is the most important thing.

"Why did you feel that way?"

“…Kiruk. Only there was no crystal moss. And the surrounding area was too exposed. Kireuk. Neither us nor orcs wander around in such a place.”

Either crazy or something. Hyunmoo was curious, but he wasn't enough to risk his life to find him like Admiral Ren did.

I don't know who Admiral Len is, but he must have died while chasing that curiosity, so Hyunmoo didn't want to be.

"That's right. First of all, you shouldn't go here."

Hyunmoo starred the map once more. With this, the geography of this area was completely displayed. Even after doing this, I had no idea where this place was in Seoul.

I don't know how much time has passed, but the structure seems to have changed quite a bit. Now that Hyunmoo has made a map, he decided to start preparing for the quest.

'If you think about it that way, I don't know if I'm lucky to have died once.'

If you die and come back to life, your wounds and stamina will be restored. Hyunmoo decided to prepare with things that do not consume stamina until the next quest while thinking positively as much as possible.

"Kirson."

"Yes, Kiruk. Boss."

“How much do you think you are worth in terms of numbers?”***

In the early morning, a swarm of mosquitoes, which always come at this time, swept through the shelter.

But Hyunmoo was in the middle of the mosquito swarm, calmly looking around. It looked like a bare body, but the blood smeared all over her body gave off an unpleasant odor that mosquitoes escaped.

However, some unfortunate mosquitoes flew around Hyunmoo and soon began to squirm and fall due to the contagious nature of the poisonous blood.

Hundreds of dead mosquitoes piled up around Hyunmoo just by standing still.

Although it seemed that his ears were deaf because of the sound of the flapping of his wings, Hyunmoo carried out his work diligently even within it.

His extra hell darts were enough, not even to make a crystal.

This is because the amount of crystal moss consumed to make the Hell Dart was small, and even if it was dismantled, no crystal stone was produced.

Hyunmoo was carrying his mosquitoes into his claws.

"Royalty."

[Mosquito (LV 3) has joined the family.]

Another mosquito survived in my hand. Unlike Kirson, Mosquito couldn't communicate, but he was able to convey his will.

Hyunmoo checked that the mosquito was moving at will on his hand and let it go.

'The 11th.'

Reviving the mosquito was for skill development.

Originally, Hyunmoo wanted to bring in more goblins besides Kirson.

If you can have two or three more goblin scouts right now, you will have level 20 hunters who can be used as hands and feet right now.

However, Hyunmoo's attempt was unsuccessful.

While receiving the message [This can no longer be accepted].

'But it's possible to get more mosquitoes.'

So he decided to experiment like this. It wasn't until the 21st mosquito that Hyunmoo heard the message [I can't take this anymore] once more.

The mosquito swarm had now left the crossroads, but a total of 20 mosquitoes were still dancing around Hyunmoo. Hyunmoo seemed to know the reason.

'Indeed, the value is determined according to the race or level, and within that value, the limit of the amount that can be brought into the family is set.'

For example, let's say that the limit value of the range that Hyunmoo can take is 10. And when Kirson's value is 6 and the goblin scouts are 5, Hyunmoo's limit is two goblin scouts or only one Kirson.

But mosquitoes are worth less than one, 0.2. Because of that, it was possible to have as many as twenty each.

'The question is how to use it.'

Hyunmoo thought as he watched the mosquitoes hovering over his hand. He experimented to see if he could bring back into the family what he had given up on, just in case.

But it didn't come back to life, whether it's not judged to have been killed by Hyunmoo. It meant that if Kirson was removed from the family, he could not be brought in again.

'Is Kirson better than two goblin scouts?'

better. definitely better

He had neither black hands nor a legendary dagger, but he was smarter and more reliable than the other goblins. If he needs to carry out orders from out of sight, he's better off with a kir hand.

Hyunmoo decided to be satisfied with this for now. It would be great if you could level up your family skills or increase their characteristics, but at the moment, I don't know how.

One human, one goblin, and twenty mosquitoes. And one cannibal fairy.

Then Lenian came to Hyunmoo's side.

"Why mosquitoes?"
