Return To Level Up

Awkward! Awkward! Awkward!

The sound of a white tiger chewing on the black skeleton commander could be heard from behind.

But Kang Ha-jin was not very interested in that.

The Commander who lost contact with Mobile Fortress Innotul wasn't really a big deal.

Even worse than the Black Skeleton Knight.

The commander had stats similar to that of an ordinary black skeleton.

What Kang Ha-jin had to acquire was a huge magic stone floating in front of him.

Ha-jin Kang took his hand towards Ma-seok.

Crazy!

Sparks bounced, and the magic stone pushed Hajin Kang's hand away.

It was a very strong reaction.

He forcibly pushed his hand, but he could not easily overcome the repulsive force of the Mana Stone.

He was definitely a level worthy bastard.

“I’m stuck here.”

Hajin Kang laughed.

Of course, he wasn't really blocked. He just can't get there easily.

Hajin Kang concentrated his magic in his hand and approached again to grab the mana stone.

Fragile!

A strong reaction occurred, but Ha-jin Kang ignored it and stretched out his hand further.

Whoops!

Sparks turned into lightning.

The thunderbolt fell on Kang Ha-jin's body. But Hajin Kang calmly let it go.

It was a fairly strong lightning attack, but it was difficult to damage Ha-jin who was only that strong.

In order to do damage to Ha-jin Kang, he must be at least four times stronger than the current lightning.

You have to be stronger to do meaningful damage.

The fact that the main attribute of the mobile fortress Innotul was lightning was a boon to Ha-jin Kang.

Hajin Kang finally got the magic stone in his hand.

At that moment, countless lines of magical power spread out around the magic stone, unfolding in Kang Ha-jin's mind.

It was the structure of the mobile fortress Innotul.

It wasn't this giant maggot monster that made up Innotul.

The magic itself that stretched like a spider's web inside was the Innotul.

The giant maggot monster was nothing more than a vessel for Innotul's power.

Of course, no matter how much a vessel, he was not ordinary, as it had to contain such a huge power.

Hajin Kang worked out the magic structure of Ito Tool, which filled his head, one by one.

This was a kind of magic pattern.

If you hadn't obtained the Tome of Raphasid, you probably wouldn't have even noticed that this was a magical pattern.

Hajin Kang perfectly remembered Innotul's magic pattern.

And he used it to remove his manastone.

Crazy!

With a light spark, the magic stone left its original place and followed as Ha-jin Kang pulled it out.

rumble rumble!

As soon as the magic stone was removed, the whole area began to vibrate. It would probably collapse sooner if left as it is.

This happened because the will to maintain the giant body of the maggot monster was gone.

Ha-jin Kang ate the black skeleton commander and said to Baekho, who was staring at Ha-jin Kang.

“Baekho, let’s go.”

- Whoa!

Baekho roared and rushed towards the wall.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

The thick flesh exploded, and the white tiger jumped out.

Hajin Kang went out through the hole Baekho had drilled.

The fight was still in full swing.

Ha-jin Kang first gave a healing bomb and applied a buff.

The guardians and fortress warriors, who were being pushed around, suddenly gained strength and began to push the Black Skeletons.

The dominance of battle has changed.

There the white tiger broke in.

- Whoa!

The white tiger only attacked the knight without touching the other black skeletons.

The Black Skeleton Knight caught the attention of Baekho.

Still, because they were over level 1000.

When Baekho intervened in the fight, the battle aspect changed overwhelmingly.

The Guardians clenched their teeth and repaid the humiliation they had suffered so far.

The Black Skeletons were broken one by one, and the last one collapsed.

"Sigh. Sigh."

Kim Ji-hye took a deep breath in her, bent her back, and placed her hand on her knee.

When was the last time you had such a tough fight?

It's probably not like I've ever had an experience like this before.

I realized how safe and protected I was growing up.

And I have a realization that this is not the case.

“It was hard.”

At the words of Ha-jin Kang, who suddenly approached, Ji-hye Kim straightened her back and got her body up.

She looked directly at Ha-jin Kang and said.

“I will stay in Japan for a while.”

Ha-jin Kang made the same suggestion earlier, but the attitude towards accepting it was different then and now.

“Didn’t I tell you to go beyond level 1000? will pass Not just me, but all the Guardians here. Do you have another one?”

At Kim Ji-hye's question, Kang Ha-jin smiled softly and nodded her head.

“Of course it is. The second wall is 2000. I think the white tiger will probably pass sooner or later.”

At Ha-jin Kang’s words, Ji-hye Kim’s gaze turned to Baek-ho.

Baekho was clinging to that giant maggot monster and chewing it hard.

Kim Ji-hye's face turned pale.

But it was only for a while, and she soon became determined.

“It will be over 2000 degrees. It must be 3000 above that, right? It will go beyond that.”

Hajin Kang smiled brightly.

“I will support you.”

* * *

In the huge dungeon, there were no monsters other than the mobile fortress Innotul and the black skeleton the fortress was carrying.

But that didn't really mean there was nothing.

Innotul was working on a passage with the Demon Realm here.

So I just drilled and the hole remained.

It was qualitatively different from the erosion pierced by the monster of chaos in the first disaster.

You could tell just by looking at the hole in the hole that Innotul was a great monster.

“How do you do this...”

Ha-jin Kang looked at the black portal swirling in the middle of the dungeon and made a troubled expression.

It was like a microcosm.

It looked as if a swarm of twinkling stars was spinning in a gigantic circle in the pitch black universe.

It was beautiful to look at. But the power flowing out of this hole was never beautiful.

“I’ve pierced a lot.”

Although the work was not for a long period of time, the erosion had progressed considerably.

It was not a good sign that the opponent's power was flowing in this direction.

Without erosion to some extent, the power could not flow continuously.

Kang Ha-jin was in a hurry and was blocking the power coming out of the hole using Raphasid's Book.

He used reflections and distortions to reverse the force that came out.

It was the power that came from there in the first place, and since the hole was still very unstable, it was completely sucked into the other side just by returning the power.

Just by returning the force like this, the hole was closing little by little.

However, it takes too long to completely close the hole at this rate.

That meant giving time to the other side as well.

If any other monster attempts to widen this passage, it will widen again.

‘In order to do that, we have to hand over a monster capable of erosion here….’

The problem was that the monster didn't have to be strong.

Even the smallest bug-like bastard didn't matter. It just needs to be eroded.

In fact, what could be done from the other side through this passage was limited to just that.

In any case, you need to keep an eye on it to make sure that doesn't happen.

I pondered for a long time, but no answer came.

Once you do, you have to do everything you can.

Now, the only thing Kang Ha-jin believed here was the book of Rapacid.

‘Because I only need to catch little bugs….’

Isn't there a cutting field to use in such a case?

Hajin Kang added cuts to reflections and distortions.

I'll probably cut out everything that comes out, whether it's a small bug or power.

He wrote a chapter on dismantling because he couldn't bring the dead worms back.

Even if you return the insect, if you disassemble it and return it, it will be difficult to notice from the other side, so it will buy you the least amount of time.

Time to close this passage.

“I’ll have to watch the dungeon as well.”

It would be difficult for someone to enter the dungeon and throw in the dust, so now we have to manage this dungeon as well.

A lot of work has been going on here and there, but you have to bear with it anyway.

I couldn't close the dungeon right away. If the dungeon was forcibly closed here, there was a possibility that this hole would protrude to Earth.

Then, instead of going through the dungeon, Earth and the other world are forcibly connected.

“Wait, wouldn’t that be better?”

Maintaining this dungeon was also a problem. Perhaps if you leave the dungeon unattended, the guardians will think that the dungeon has not been closed.

Now, this dungeon was the dungeon the world was paying attention to.

Ha-jin Kang thought about it for a while and then made a decision.

* * *

“What is this...?”

What I feared happened.

After closing the dungeon, the hole in it was connected to the Earth.

Of course, there was no problem because Ha-jin Kang's Rapacid pattern was also passed along with it.

But this was the real beginning. This hole must be carefully monitored.

Maybe monsters flock to this place.

Some of them may be capable of erosion.

Even if there was no erosion skill in the first place, it might be possible to widen the hole depending on the monster's ability.

So it's best to prevent any monsters from coming here at all.

And from now on, it has to be done by the people here and now.

“This is a hole. The maggot monster in the dungeon was breaking through.”

“A hole……is this?”(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

“It’s the hole that connects the world inhabited by monsters and the Earth.”

Kim Ji-hye's expression hardened. She reflexively turned her head to look at her Guardian's companions. She all had the same expression on her face.

“Then… what will happen now?”

“It will be closed in due time by taking appropriate measures.”

"······ That's fortunate."

“But it will take some time. If you roughly estimate the speed..."

Hajin Kang watched the power flow from the hole and then back again, closely observing what was happening in the process.

After she checked it over and over again, she came to a conclusion.

“It will take about two months.”

“Two months…….”

“In the meantime, we have to stop the monsters from coming this way.”

At Ha-jin Kang’s words, Ji-hye Kim and the Guardians could clearly see what they were going to do in the future.

“We have to do it.”

“For once. But we will continue to send reinforcements.”

Jihye Kim shook her head with a bright expression.

“We will do it. It's good that I have to level up as well. If you're having trouble, we'll take care of it and ask for support. Are you planning to enter Japan?”

Kang Ha-jin, seeing Ji-hye Kim's eyes, had no choice but to nod her head.

She was determined that no one could break her, and her young eyes were shining.

Jihye Kim has set her target level to 1001. She was willing to do anything for it.

“When you die, please only take responsibility for the supply. We'll go all-in on the hunt. I will dry Mr. Monster around here.”

Kang Ha-jin had no choice but to nod her head again this time.

She looked at the guardians standing behind Kim Ji-hye, and they had the same eyes.

Perhaps the fight in this dungeon brought some change to them.

not bad.

These are the core members of the Guardian.

Now is the time for them to take the next step.

‘Only I can do better.’

Hajin Kang has reached level 700 this time.

He hasn't even crossed the first wall yet. Perhaps, if he hadn't raised his rank once a while ago, he might not have been able to properly fight the Black Skeleton Commander this time.

So now it's time to cross the first wall.

‘Actually, it was late.’

Ha-jin Kang recalled the information about Japan that Yoon Kyung-min had conveyed in his head.

There were still many monsters that Hajin Kang had to deal with.

“Then see you in two months.”

Kang Ha-jin left those words and turned around.

Now is the time to level up.
