Return To Level Up

In fact, it didn't take very long to sort out all the steel buffalo in the dungeon.

I was able to raise the level a lot, and I collected a lot of by-products of the steel buffalo.

Now all that was left was to destroy the core.

Hajin Kang approached the river flowing with hot molten iron.

This river was the core of the steel buffalo dungeon here.

The normal core stays in the ground and when all the monsters are caught, it rises up and pulls out the monster, but the core here was a little different.

As time goes by, a steel buffalo will pop out of there. It must be destroyed before then.

The fact that the river itself is the core means that the river must be eliminated.

And yet, Kang Ha-jin's power wasn't that great. However, Hajin Kang had the knowledge and experience he had accumulated while researching dungeons for a long time before returning.

“You have to use what you can’t take with you anyway.”

Ha-jin Kang began to collect the corpses of steel buffalo from which the magic stones, horns, and eyes were extracted.

He had only focused on fighting so far, so the bodies were scattered all over the field.

The place where Ha-jin Kang collected the carcasses of the steel buffalo was in a narrow river.

The width of the molten iron steel was uniform, one of which was recessed. It was about half the width of other places, so the flow rate was fast, but it was good to throw a steel buffalo on it.

Hajin Kang quickly threw the carcass of a steel buffalo there.

?! ?! ?! ?!

Hot molten iron splashed in all directions. At first, the steel buffalo sank into the molten iron and could not be seen at all, but as it piled up a little more, it began to appear above the water.

A huge dam made of steel was soon completed. The molten metal squeezed through the crack and flowed, but the amount of molten metal flowing in the river based on the dam was almost exhausted.

Hajin Kang pulled out a piece of magic stone with the cold attribute from the subspace.

It was a manastone that could be used as a bomb by taking precautions in advance.

After pouring the magic into it, he threw it.

Aww!

If it hits the dam, it may break, so it was blown up in the air. The cold air then poured down over the steel dam.

The hot molten iron cooled and solidified. It filled the gaps in the steel dam.

There was no more molten iron flowing in the river.

But this won't last long. The constant pouring of molten iron will continue to melt the steel dam.

Hajin Kang hurriedly jumped into the riverbed.

And ran along the river. It is best to stay as far away from the dam as possible. It is difficult if the dam collapses when it is not finished in one shot.

Ha-jin Kang, who was seated in a suitable place, used his skills.

[smash]

His fist was young enough to destroy the core. Hajin Kang concentrated and stared at the river bed.

As he concentrated, he saw faint incontinence on the river bed.

That was the crack in the core that can only be seen in this steel buffalo dungeon.

You have to attack right there in order to properly destroy the core.

Aww!

Kang Ha-jin's fist was precisely slammed into the crack.

And the power of crushing penetrated through the gap.

blatantly!

Gold, like a spider's web, stretched out in all directions. The crushing force from the inside of the crack spread throughout the river bed.

Whoa!

The river bed burst as it was, and intense magical power was spurted out. It was like a magical storm.

Ha-jin Kang felt his skin tingling at the magic passing through his body, and turned his body to look at the steel dam he had built in the distance.

Hot molten metal sloshing over the dam exploded and soared upwards like an explosion.

There, too, the magic was raging.

His vision trembled like a haze. The core will break and the power to support the dungeon world will disappear.

Hajin Kang concentrated on the magic that permeated his body.

After his return, he tried to feel the changes in his body whenever his magical powers moved like this or he did something special.

It was because I was wondering if I could feel something of a higher level other than that special feeling of the past, magic.

Unsurprisingly, this feeling also appeared faintly.

‘It entered my body.’

It took me a while to say whether I should express this as accurately entering the body, but in any case, that higher-order power had definitely entered me.

And the dungeon disappeared.

Hajin Kang was standing in an ordinary underground parking lot where the portal had disappeared.

* * *

The war between Taesan and Geoseong has come to an end.

The atmosphere was consolidating toward the victory of Taishan.

It wasn't an overwhelming victory, so the damage Taesan suffered was enormous. However, it can be restored to some extent by absorbing the giant.

Ji Chang-gi pressed his temple to the stinging buttocks.

A shadow stood in front of him.

“Report.”

“I found a place for Dong-Hoon Yoo.”

“A helper?”

“These are the awakeners who were active in the black market.”

Ji Chang-gi frowned.

“Black market?”

Those entangled in the black market are difficult to deal with. Because there are all kinds of stellar bastards on the black market.

In addition, it is closely related to Ji Chang-gi's business, so if you do it carelessly, your business could be disrupted.

“It's nothing to worry about. I barely managed to set foot on the black market.”

"okay? Are you saying there is no backtracking?”

"Yes. I also checked on the black market side.”

"Good. Well done. I'll bring it back once the war is over, so make sure to put a watch on it. Don't move too quickly."

“That’s how it was done.”

“Who was it that you were looking for?”

"Sorry. There are no traces.”

“Our children suffered so much, and there was no trace of it? Did you track the check?”

“It seems to have flowed towards the black market or the A-market. It cannot be traced.”

Ji Chang-gi looked at the shadow with unexpected eyes. The shadow spoke quietly.

“I couldn't trace it, but I thoroughly analyzed the traces. They are all the same guy for sure.”

“The same guy?”

“We found several similar traces.”

Ji Chang-gi made an awkward expression.

“So… the guy who sold low-quality magic stones for Happy Money, the guy who slaughtered our children, and the guy who broke into my lizard dungeon are the same guy?”

"Yes. And I think he was also involved in stealing Dong-Hoon Dong.”

“Huh, I am. This is ridiculous.”

Ji Chang-gi looked down at the shadows while smirking. I was curious about his opinion.

"He's most likely a hitman hired somewhere."

Ji Chang-gi nodded his head. Because his own thoughts were the same. Because he couldn't do anything without his back and helpers.

Perhaps some of the forces in the black market have intervened.

“Now what?”

Ji Chang-gi clenched his teeth.

“The war must end quickly. You, too, put aside everything else and focus on the war. We have to clean up the giant castle and find the hitman’s back.”

The next organization to collapse after the giant will be there.

Ji Chang-gi's eyes blazed with a mixture of ambition and life.

* * *

Hajin Kang conquered all four dungeons he had secured. It was completely organized by breaking down the core.

It wasn't just dungeon tidying up. In his spare time, he looked at the dynamics of Mount Taesan and Geoseong, and also checked how the war was going.

At the same time, he secretly used his hands to keep both sides in balance.

Of course, Zhu was a dungeon conquest, so he could not take the time or focus enough to control the flow of war itself. It was just a simple measure to accumulate damage.

Anyway, the war did not end even after conquering all the dungeons.

Of course, the war was at the end of the day. In the end, it was a situation that ended when only the head of the giant was captured.

Hajin Kang didn't want this situation to end so simply.

Before the return, Taesan-i, i.e. Ji Chang-gi, took possession of both the Seoul and Gyeonggi regions. It united the dark district.

Using that momentum, it spread across the country and eventually became a huge and powerful organization renowned worldwide.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

And the starting point was the war with the giant.

Geoseong was an organization with more money than expected. He was much richer than Ji Chang-gi and other organizations around him knew.

It was dozens of times more money than Ji Chang-ki had expected, and that huge amount of money was the driving force that unified Seoul and Gyeonggi-do.

So, in order to properly feed Ji Chang-gi, shouldn't it be prevented?

Kang Ha-jin was now near the place where the chieftain of the giant castle was hiding. Of course, he didn't find it himself, but he came here after chasing Taesan's chasing group.

This area was infested with men from Taesan.

Hajin Kang was looking at the warehouse where the leaders of the giant castle were hiding, avoiding their eyes.

'Once you get it out of there...or you just have to take the money.'

Slowly, Ji Chang-gi noticed that something was wrong. Therefore, it is not the order to capture them without killing them.

Hajin Kang looked at the tracking team that was monitoring the warehouse.

There were 20 people in all, and they were waiting for the support team.

Currently hiding in the warehouse, there were a total of seven people including Joo Myung-woo, the boss and chairman of the giant castle.

The Awoken were not mixed, but they were all the ones who had led the giant to this point. There was no way I could squeal.

Therefore, for sure victory, it was best to break the enemy's will to fight with overwhelming power.

Perhaps those in the warehouse are also aware of the situation to some extent.

Maybe he's given up on everything.

‘Then it won’t be a problem.’

Hajin Kang moved quickly. Once the support team arrives, it gets harder. must be dealt with before that.

The first thing they did was to neutralize the part of the tracking team that was now a watchdog.

It would take too much time to deal with all the chasers, so it was a reasonable choice to remove just enough to create a gap in the surveillance and divert the giants' leadership through that gap.

And the skills [Hide and Seek] and [Crush] were the best combination in this case.

Ha-jin Kang approached the guard on the side of the empty wall, not the entrance to the warehouse, and took them out at once.

To get out of that warehouse, I had no choice but to use the entrance. But Kang Ha-jin was able to create another hole.

It was a possible operation because it was not a single warehouse in a huge vacant lot, but a warehouse area where many warehouses were built.

Ha-jin Kang, who broke one side of the guard, stuck close to the wall of the warehouse. Then I put [Crushing] in my palm and pushed it against the wall.

Pass!

Broken powder poured out and a hole was pierced in the wall. Inside, the leaders of the giant star with their eyes wide open in surprise were seen.

Hajin Kang gestured towards them as if to come out quickly.

They had no choice. Everyone quietly came out of the warehouse through the hole.

Ha-jin Kang and the leadership of Geoseong seeped into the narrow alley of the warehouse area.
