Kill the Hero

4.

The most important thing in attacking a dungeon is not just rationing.

If you are a really good player, you plan very carefully how you will consume your food before entering the dungeon.

Of course, even mediocre players can come up with any kind of plausible plan.

That's all there is to it.

It is also possible for elementary school students who know how to make a daily timetable for their vacation homework.

It's just hard to carry out that plan.

In that sense, it is not easy to move as planned in the dungeon.

Once in a dungeon, there are many variables.

The biggest variable among them is also the player.

Humans are utterly incompetent.

For example, if you are competing against a boss monster and are playing a boss monster hunt.

I know it's obvious, but it's impossible to rush.

In the case of Goblins, there are always more than fifty Goblins waiting around their leader, and most of the time is spent in a Goblin's lair surrounded by hundreds of Goblins.

So what do we do?

You just have to wait.

Just wait for the Boss Monster to move out of their lair in the middle of the forest with his henchmen.

Of course, waiting is not the end.

I don't care if it looks obvious, but if it's not, we need to be sure about targeting.

We need to figure out which one is the leader, and then attack. If we attack the beggar, we will be reversed.

In fact, if you can do it this way, it is not a bad way.

Well, isn't it practically over once you get the boss?

The problem is that, as I said earlier, spending time in a limited way is no different than simply consuming food meaninglessly.

If you realize that, you will naturally be nervous.

And that nervousness turns into recklessness over time.

‘Now we're moving. ’

Kim Woo-jin, what he did was turn someone's nervousness into recklessness.

5.

On the fourth day of entering the dungeon, a 5-man party led by Kim Sun-jung rushed towards the Goblin horde.

“That's him! That guy with the scar on his head! ”

Their goal was simple.

“Let's make this quick! ”

Speed dial!

Their goal was to kill the slime disguised as the boss monster Goblin in a heartbeat.

Of course they were.

Once they find out that the attack on the bicycle party was a slime, they identify the slime disguised as a Goblin.

The war was also full of confidence.

"Slime is the only way to win. ’

Slime!

How trivial is this name?

On the other hand, Seonjong Kim and his group rush towards the slime were promising players recognized by the guild.

Right away, I had the experience of clearing the Goblin Dungeon of rank E by myself.

That's why they call him Goblin Slayer!

Of course, only ten of the world's population know the nickname, but he was confident in any situation against the Goblins.

The weapon is also a rare grade item, worth 80 million won.

‘Lamborghini is mine. ’

‘I wanted to pick a Bentley, but that's great. ’

Above all, Kim Seon's group even had a solid motive.

A very solid motive for this boss monster hunt!

In other words, that was it.

They had confidence and motivation, and there was no reason to be sure of victory in battle.

Kim Sun-jung, the leader of Kim's party, realized that it was the moment when he thrust a rare grade sword of 80 million won towards the Goblin with a scar on his head.

Puck!

The sword he plunged through the Goblin's body.

Huh?

At that moment, the senses of Kim Seon clearly told me the senses of his own Goblin Slayer.

‘Not this one. ’

He's just an ordinary Goblin.

I'm not Slime, the boss monster.

The real slime was in the back of Kim's ship.

Khhh!

Not a Goblin, but a vicious Orc without one.

"Ah!"

The slime's fist, which had already turned into an orc, was flying towards his face when Kim Seon Joon turned his head.

Kim Seon-jun closed his eyes to that fact.

Boom!

At that moment, the Orc's fist blew away the skull of one of the Kim Ships wearing a helmet.

Pow!

I followed the sound of bones breaking near Kim's neck.

“Seongjun!”

“Mr. Seongjun! ”

Immediately, a voice called out his name.

Bang!

The last was the sound of Kim's body hitting the ground.

“Ugh!”

The sound of breathing came from the mouth of the Kim Seon.

In other words, it was a sound that told me that Kim was alive.

Of course, he was alive.

It is absurd to wage a proper battle in a broken neck.

How fortunate for him to have survived, but not for the rest of his comrades.

Queek!

Khh!

With a group of Goblins and slimes left turned into Orcs, co-workers among Kim's ships were now forced to fight with the burden of Kim Seon-jun, who was now a non-soldier.

The warning light grew in everyone's head at this moment.

Shouldn't we abandon him? ’

‘As per the rules of engagement, we should throw it away. ’

It was a warning lamp about the fact that everyone might die if we keep fighting with Kim.

However, no one dared to say that Kim Seon-jung should be abandoned.

‘Call for help · · · · · · · ·. ’

A better lane is to call for help.

However, even that did not lead to an easy action.

In their heads, you see a group of bicycles, laughing and mocking at them.

Pride, always getting people to choose the worst, grabbed them by the ankles.

“Gather around Seonjong Kim! ”

“Heal us while we stop the monsters! ”

“Yes!”

In the end, Kim Seon-jong's group makes a choice to protect Kim Seon-jong. Three men surrounded him like he was guarding him, and one healer began to heal him.

The Goblin, of course, and now the slime that has turned into an orc, is violent towards the horde.

Queek!

Goblins in the distance throw rocks.

Kyaa!

Goblins nearby hurl their bodies ahead of the crude blade.

Kuang!

The slime turns into an orc and slams its shield in front of it with my fist like a hammer.

“Goddamn Goblins! ”

“Hold on! Hold on until you hold on! ”

Even in that situation, it was evidence that Kim Seon's group was not in the normal mood to scream without being frustrated by fear.

Of course, they had no intention of continuing this battle.

The only thing they wanted was to get him out of here after the minimal treatment Kim Seon-jung could move on.

“Enough!”

Soon came the moment they had been waiting for.

“I'm going to punch you! ”

At that moment, you hurl a huge ball of fire prepared by the Wizard between them towards a group of Goblins.

Grrr!

A massive ball of fire touches the Goblin explodes like a grenade.

Queek!

The Goblins shriek at that, and a group of Kim Seon-jong flees toward the gap.

Grrrrrgh!

The slime turns into an orc and screams at Kim Sun-jung's group.

Chase him!

I gave that order to the Goblins.

Moss.

However, the Goblins stepped back with frightened eyes because of the Orc's shout.

The Goblins' instincts were frightened by the screams of Orcs, a predator.

The slime immediately transformed itself into a Goblin.

The body of the Orc melts like a candlestick. It looks like a Goblin in a shovel.

Queeeee!

Slime turns into a Goblin again, and then the Goblins start chasing after one of Kim's group.

However, many of the Goblins were still hesitant.

Queeeee!

The slime turned into a Goblin screams again, and then the hesitant Goblins make their move.

Queek!

The appearance of the Goblins makes Slime's face crumpled. You look furious.

It was that moment.

Something appears behind the back of a slime that has turned into a Goblin.

Queer?

The moment the embarrassed slime turns its head, the translucent wire wraps around the slime's neck.

Paan!

The wire is pulled taut as the slime makes eye contact with the man who appears behind it.

Slime's eyes pop open.

Key, Kick, Kick.

You hear a choking sound coming from the slime's mouth.

Trembling!

Then you hear Kim Woo-jin's Skeleton Soldier running towards you with a knife.

At that moment, the slime began to transform me into an Orc.

You tried to replace your neck with a thick Orc-like item, not a thin Goblin.

He straightens to sever the translucent wire that wrapped around his neck.

Huff!

But the translucent wire did not stretch, rather than break.

A snake spider web that can only come from dungeons on the third floor or higher. You're not the only one who can stop. ’

Serpent Spider Cobwebs, costing 10 million won per meter, exerted their power.

Moreover, the power of snake spider silk was not only that.

Literally, there was spider silk, strength, as well as excellent adhesion.

The slime's neck is as stuffed with unbreakable collars.

Puck!

Around that time, the Skeleton Soldiers started attacking.

However, Skeleton Soldiers don't stab as foolishly as other Goblins.

I learned that if I try hard to stab the knife, it won't work. It's more effective to cut it sharply and create a wound.

Shhh! Shhh!

That's how the Skeleton Soldiers began to inflict wounds on Slime's body, which was turning into an Orc.

Keys, keys!

At this moment, the slime was the only option.

Smaller, it turns into something smaller than a Goblin. Slime changes from Orc to Goblin.

The pressure that wrapped around my neck naturally decreased.

However, as soon as I returned to the Goblin, Slime's face turned blue.

Phew!

Blood bursts from the mouth of the slime that became a Goblin.

[Mutated Slime Addicted to Blood Poison.]

‘It's worth the hard blood work. ’

The smaller slime, the moment Kim Woo-jin's blood became lethal.

6.

[Level has increased.]

[You have reached level 10. Increases inventory by 2 slots]

[Achieved the 'Mutated Slime Hunter’ achievement.]

[Delegates in the dark world admire your growth. Increases inventory by 2 slots]

[A representative from the dark world sends you a catalog of your growth as a gift.]

You hear a notification that the battle is over.

However, Kim Woo-jin did not stop acting on the notification.

Rather, Kim Woo-jin is now translucent and begins to dig into the body of the melting slime.

I caught a ring in Kim Woo-jin's hand.

At that moment, a hologram window appeared before his eyes.

[Ring of Mutated Slime]

- Item Rank: Unique

- Available from Lv. 10 and higher

- Item Description: Mutated Slime Core. Has very special abilities

- HP +10 when equipped

- Energy +10 when equipped

- Magic Power +10 when equipped

A ring with a mutated slime.

It was a unique grade item.

It was also an item with an option that matched the unique grade.

It was hard to find items that raised this many stats among the 10 level items.

Moreover, it was an accessory, not a weapon.

If you sell it for money, you'll get enough to buy all the cars outside the dungeon.

‘Jae-hoon is right. ’

Of course, Kim Woo-jin had no intention of selling this.

Rather, it was the opposite.

‘It's worth the trouble. ’

Kim Woo-jin postponed being ignored to get money for these items.

Of course, Kim Woo-jin wore the ring without hesitation.

“Stats window.”

And immediately activated the Stats window.

[Kim Woo-jin]

- Level: 10

- Lighting: proxy for the dark world

- Ability: HP (32 +12)/Energy (2 +12)/Magic Power (3 +12)

- Achievement: 2

- Extra Points: 3

Kim Woo-jin invested all the level-up bonus points into his health.

There's only one thing left.

‘Let's just check the catalog and get it over with. ’

Every time you reach level 10, you just need to find out what's in the catalog that the light comes from.

Of course, Kim Woo-jin did not expect much from that.

He may not have been much else, but his catalog luck was not so good.

In fact, so many dungeons have been cleared, only three times have I gained a unique tier item through the catalogue I obtained in level-up.

Even the fifth place winner is not a very good type.

“Catalog.”

There was no radiance in the thin catalogue that appeared with the command.

‘There is no radiance.' ’

There was no gold or silver.

Huh?

Instead, there is just a page made of obsidian.
