- Volume 4 Episode 14

It was something I had never done before, so I was curious about various things.

Jung Daesik blatantly asked questions.

"Isn't this enough to make money?"

There was no way I could do such a dangerous thing just for fun.

Wandering around such an unknown dungeon alone is risky, no matter how talented you are.

However, seeing what he was doing, he was sure to be paid a fair price for it.

The same I shrugged his shoulders.

"If there are 10 million views on YouTube, the advertising cost alone is reasonable. Besides, there are a lot of people who support it. When all the pennies spent by each viewer are collected, it is quite large."

Looking back, the armor Na Dong-il was wearing looked unusual.

It must have been that it wasn't something you usually see at the arms store.

Just by looking at it, it was easy to guess that his income was substantial.

'There was a way to make money that way.'

Jung Daesik thought for a moment if he could imitate himself.

However, scenes of him filming him just hunting have been circulating a lot on YouTube.

Perhaps the reason Na Dong-il is popular is because of the advantage of being able to show the hunting scene in real time.

He thought it was not something he could imitate, and Jung Daesik quickly gave up his interest.

"By the way, did you come into this dungeon to hunt?"

"Why are you asking that?"

As Kim Si-on frowned and asked a question, I, Dong-il, shrugged his shoulders.

"Well, it's kind of weird. I've been walking around for hours already, but I haven't seen any monsters."

"It's the same with us."

"Thanks to you, today's broadcast was completely stopped. In the meantime, I'm fortunate to have met you all."

"Why are you so lucky to have met us? As long as you weren't in any danger."

"Because walking around with a group is more fun than walking around alone, right?"

"I never said I'd go out with you, did I?"

Na Dong-il immediately proposed to Kim Si-on with a cold expression.

"I'm not asking you to go for free. I'm making a formal request."

"request?"

"If you accompany me today, I will pay the appropriate compensation. You don't have to worry about me. Just let me follow you."

"I'm sorry, but we don't sign contracts that way. We didn't come here today for hunting purposes. We came here for a pre-exploration on another contract, so it's not going to be as exciting as you'd expect it to be."

"It doesn't matter if it's not hunting."

"As I said, I can't decide as I want because I'm carrying out other quests. If you're a shipwreck, I don't know. But if you've come this far alone, you might be able to go back. No monsters appear."

At Kim Si-on's stubborn attitude, I, Dong-il, touched his chin.

"Hmm, then how about giving me some information?"

“It will depend on what kind of information it is.”

"Information about the hunter who succeeded in capturing this dungeon."

Kim Si-on paused.

Unless you know what kind of place this dungeon is, the Hunter's information that Na Dong-il knew could be important.

However, it was also a story that I did not need to know because I had already heard of a preliminary survey.

Kim Si-on thought about it for a moment, but then touched his lips as if he was about to say no.

Reading the hint, Na Dong-il opened his mouth first.

"I'm talking for you, but you better listen."

Kim Si-on was silent.

The same I saw her like her and trembled at her sarcasm.

"Actually, it's a story that won't hurt you. It's just a matter of allowing me to accompany you. I will never interfere or ask for help."

Kim Si-on sighed briefly.

"Okay. Tell me what information it is."

I said, sticking out her tongue and moistening her lips.

"That hunter is Yang Woo-taek, who is called the Black Hand."

"Yeah? By the way?"

When Si-on Kim crossed his arms in such a way that it could not be called information by itself, Dong-il Na hurriedly continued.

“It is known that the magic stones Yang Woo-taek sold after entering and leaving this dungeon are blue. Perhaps the Titan Raid also came here based on the information that blue stones were released. It is said that it was not obtained from the dungeon. It is said that it was a magic stone obtained in another dungeon in the past, and the one obtained here was of a different color."

"What exactly do you want to talk about? Let's get to the point."

At Kim Si-on's urging, Na Dong-il worked hard like a storyteller.

"It is said that... it was purple."

"purple?"

The color and transparency of the magic crystal depend on the concentration of magical power contained in it.

And it was determined by the difficulty of the dungeon, that is, which monsters lurk.

In dungeons with common magic stones such as yellow and red, no matter how difficult it is, they stay at the 7th or 8th grade level.

You must have a level 6 or higher monster for Blue Stone to appear.

Purple Stone is, of course, grade 5 or higher.

The horse is a level 5, but the fact that it is a level 5 monster means that it takes three level 5 hunters to be strong enough to defeat it.

This number is the minimum and usually counts as five.

This is because, although there should be five players, it becomes the most basic form of a raid: tank, close-distance, long-distance, buffer, and healer.

Therefore, if there are 5th grade monsters lurking here, it was something that the expedition team had to be extremely careful about.

They were in a state of being composed of a minimum number of people for a preliminary survey.

There was only one level 5 hunter, Kim Si-on, and her ability was focused on command rather than battle, so in case of an emergency, only three people could fight.

Jung Daesik, So Kang-Doo, and Ki Chul-Min.

I don't know what kind of ability the best of the One-Eyed Troops have, but their attack power didn't seem that strong.

She said that if she and her were the same as me, her non-combat personnel would exceed half.

When a level 5 monster appeared, the possibility of annihilation was very high.

Considering those points, Kim Si-on fell into trouble.

She must have given up exploring and returned, she must have been conflicted.

But they haven't met a single monster so far.

In addition to preserving power, Jung Daesik's ability to detect monsters means that he could have escaped if he left.

Kim Si-on solidified her determination and said.

“As I said before, our goal is not to hunt. Even if we encounter a level 5 monster, we can avoid it. A level 5 monster is most likely a boss mob in this dungeon. Actually, it's our job to see what monsters we're most likely to encounter during this mission, so we'll keep exploring until we find anything."

The expedition team, including Dongil Na, resumed their mission.

They were walking while maintaining their formation, but Na Dong-il, who was walking in the rear alongside Kim Si-on, was very noisy.

It was also due to the resumption of broadcasting.

"Everyone! I'm back! Yes, yes. The story got a little long because I was with them. Let me introduce you formally. This is the hunter in charge of the foreign troops of the Titan Raid! This is Kim Si-on. Kim Si-on, wait Can you see me here?"

"......"

"Yes, yes. Are you a reticent person? As I joined these people with difficulty, it shouldn't be a hindrance? It would be nice if you could say a few words, but I think it's overly greedy. Please be satisfied with what I introduce instead. Yes? Ah, yes , yes. Are you a beauty? I think so too."

Na Dong-il continued the broadcast by reacting without a break even by himself.I wanted to tell him to shut up as he might attract monsters because of his noisy chatter, but unfortunately, there were still no monsters coming out.

Even if I focused my mind, there were no monsters caught in the extension of my attention.

Even with the mapping, there is only a swamp with no special features, but it spreads endlessly......

While the drone was mapping, the rested crews stood in their place idly.

It was only Na Dong who was enthusiastic.

He roamed through the crew, trying to interview them.

Kim Si-on ignored it, Ki Cheol-min pretended to be busy, and Heo Mi-rae shyly avoided it, but So Gang-doo responded very positively.

"Wahhaha! It's not that strange of a skill. Werewolves and wearbears are common. Werefox? That's rare. I've only seen it once, but it was a woman. There's also Wear Lizard in the Americas, but I don't know."

"Wear Lizard. So, are you transforming into a lizard?"

"I heard that you transform into a crocodile?"

"It's a transformation no matter what, it's strange. Can I see you once?"

"Uh huh, it has to be out of combat. Transformation is basically the use of magical power. Of course, the transformation itself doesn't consume a lot of magic power, but it shouldn't be wasted."

"That's right. Ummm......"

Na Dong-il looked around to see if there was anything else to broadcast, and approached Choi Choi, who was sitting there holding a hologram tab.

"Everyone, can you see? The holographic map is getting bigger? The drone that just flew is observing the topographic features of the area and sending that information. This tab creates a 3D map based on that information. Now this Are the twinkling lights a drone?"

As I put her words to the best of the same, she snapped her head behind her back in surprise.

"Oh, sorry."

Na Dong-il, who used to talk to Ki Chul-min without hesitation, was embarrassed and backed away.

Choeun had her long straight hair hanging down to her waist, and her long bangs covered her eyes.

That alone was quite a dismal impression, but she hadn't said a word until now.

The atmosphere that pushes people around her just by standing there, I gave up talking to her and approached Jung Daesik.

"This guy... is a ranged dealer because he has an automatic rifle? Ah! The Foreign Legion of the Titan Raid is famous for each member playing multiple positions. Do you also have a position? May I ask what position you are in?"

Jung Daesik only shrugged his shoulders instead of answering.

Then Na Dong-il said, "Are you serious? Buffer?" He was suddenly startled, and his eyes widened.

"Wait! Have you ever been active in S23D before? Have you ever caught several Cerberus?"

Jung Daesik nodded his head, wondering if the story was still floating around.

"By the way?"

Upon hearing his answer, Dongil Na clapped.

"Aren't you that reputable porter-turned-hunter? Triplelist Jung Daesik! You've been quiet lately, but you're in the titan raid! Hey, great!"
