The Skill Maker

Underwater City (2)

The man kept silent for a moment before slowly talking again after a while.

Looking at his expression, he certainly seemed to have a special story.

"You may have all the authority to acquire or obtain from Dungeon. It's just that we're... I'd be grateful if you could take me with you. We will do our best to help you. Please, I sincerely ask you. Please take us with you."

"Can you tell me why you want to go so far?"

The man bit his lower lip.

"The truth is... one of our close colleagues went missing a few days ago, saying he was going to. He was so curious that I couldn't control my energy. Honestly, I'm still very worried. She's my... She's my fiance. But since the place is a place, it's so uncomfortable for us to go alone. So please help me."

"Well, I'd like to ask you, please. I want to save a friend."

"Please!"

Well, like this. I scratched the back of my head.

I can't believe you're trying to save someone you love.

What should I do with this? It's definitely easier to go alone.

The man looks at me and opens his mouth again.

"Of course, if you take us with you, we'll pay you five billion won in additional remuneration. Please allow me to come with you, considering that you are being asked to do a quest. We'll also cover the costs of the expedition."

Five billion?

Hmm. Five billion kruns were never a small amount of money to make light moves, unless they were certainly hunting some level of monsters, or unless they had items above the legendary grade. You're a lot more upset than they think.

I can't believe he's just asking for money without bargaining.

It was only then that I was finally moved by the fact that I had to pay for it. As I've said before, I was a very patient person who could bear some annoyance if I could only get a certain price. I hate people who try to beg day by day, but don't they pay me five billion kruns of remuneration and hand me all the profits from dungeon... I'm just saying. Save your fiancée! Fiance! Isn't it too cold-blooded to refuse this?

As expected, I'm very nice.

I opened my mouth again.

"Okay, if that's what you're going to do, I'm sure you'll take it."

"Are you really giving me permission? Go, thank you."

"Thank you, Minhyuk!"

"Now, if we do well, we do well."

party members who are genuinely

Looks like the missing person has some luck.

"Come on, when shall we leave? An hour later? Half an hour later? Or right now?"

Oh, come to think of it, the herbal mix of 's is not finished yet.

The man and the party members look at me with perplexed faces.

"Well, so soon? Before we leave, we should go through some discussion about the point of attack..."

"Okay. I've got some work to do. Then let's leave early tomorrow morning. We're starting the meeting right now. What do you say, Cole?"

"...Co, Cole."

the early dawn when the sun was barely rising

We were huddled together in

The night before, I caught the newly acquired party members and the inn and finished all the detailed discussions about the attack. Chloe's herbal mixture was also completed, and she and her father taught her special fishing methods. In other words, the only thing left to do is to enter the country in the true sense of the word.

"One, two, three. Okay, here we go. One! Two! Three!"

We took out something that lasted for a day and drank it down one bottle at a time.

The underwater city was beyond the passage leading down the lake, and naturally a leap was essential to get to a place full of water. I checked the time right away.

"A leap in underwater breathing. Usage time... 5:15 a.m. You have to check carefully. If you don't want to drown. Now, let's check the formation again before we leave."

We carefully immerged ourselves in the water after we finished inspecting the party's camp and exploration equipment.

I am the leader and main dealer of the team. Grand Sod Master Warrior.

The two of us have decided to take on the role of protecting our allies, fighting the enemy on the front line of the team. As the front line is the most dangerous place in the battle of the party, it was safest for those with solid defense and offensive capabilities to take the lead.

Next is the 9 circle wizard with a fluffy face and blue hair.

She decided to move right behind me and watch Jin-hyung's left and right sides and magic to support the battle. It's kind of weird that being a 9 circle wizard is just a support role. Well, considering the level of the department of monsters in the Kandulas system, it wasn't a very interesting scene in this town. At first, her presence was not very rare, as it was a gathering of all the above-the-A] people in the universe.

Behind Elisha, a young lady with the ability to nullify the enemy's magic attacks and restore our strength, took this position. Similar to but slightly different from that. The unusual energy that Arona pulls from the atmosphere was a mysterious ability that was hard to find other users in space. She decided to take charge of the team's stamina. Bboo bboo bboo bbboo bboo bboo.

Finally, behind Elisha, at the end of the party, a number that resembles an alligator, decided to take its place. Although the risk is relatively lower than the front line, the enemy's surprise attack on the rear cannot be overlooked. In addition, the presence of a person capable of preparing for a contingency improves stability in terms of the composition of the party.

And the last position.

A middle-aged man named Ranger adventurer, who freely manages a strange mana resembling smoke, has taken his place here. In his case, he was playing a very important role in moving the front and back of the camp freely to find roads and traps, and to move the party to an optimized safety course. In particular, the first dungeon to attack like this one is more important.

"Okay, let's get in."

The moment K'rgos' confirmation signal dropped.

All at once, we began to swim downward, as if we were standing upside down on the bottom of the lake. Is it finally time for one of them to be used? For your information, it takes about half of my skills, but the other half is to improve the efficiency of living and working.

Skill Rating: E+

: Swim skill rises rapidly when triggered. I'm not tired.

As I began to swim as if I were a mermaid, the party members marveled at the sight. Not only is he carrying a bag, but he is even wearing a light-arm. No matter how competent they are, it was never easy to swim so naturally. Of course, I was able to freely swim in the water with the correction of my skills.

[Wow, that's great.]

[I do a little.]

[Chromalis, please take care of Ariel. He's not a good swimmer.]

[Sorry, I'm sorry.

[Okay. Get on my back.]

amid a light telepathic exchange of doctors

We could finally get down to the bottom of the lake without much trouble. According to information, at the bottom of the center of Lake Sekladir there was an entrance to the new world we were trying to go to. Soon a black giant pupil is found. Elisha, the wizard, signaled the party members to a five-circle magic telepathy.

[Entrance check complete. Then let's go in at the same time. One, two, three!]

It's quite a dark place.]

We glided into our pupils, and soon began to curl down a little more easily and down a huge pupil, thanks to Elisha's gravitational magic. It gives me a little chills as if I were moving away from the human world to another dimension. However, the game has already begun. Now there is only progress towards underwater cities.

K'rgos opens his mouth carefully in the lead.

He was touching something like an iron gate in the light of the steady glow of the water. It's old and rusty, but it still looks strong. Above all, the thickness is no joke.

[First obstacle detected. It's locked. I'll open the door from now on.]

The moment when the mana of smoke from K'rgos' body flowed into the keychain gap in the lock on the iron door. I could notice it was opening up with a little pulsation, a little pulsation. Surely it's because he's a Ranger above the [A]ank. It felt quite different from ordinary earth hunters opening doors using simple tools. You can't open the door using a mana that freely converts its shape to smoke. If K'rgos had the right mind, there seemed to be no such thing as a door in the world that he couldn't get.

Passing through the iron gate, passing through the winding pupil, and further down, the water pressure suddenly weakened rapidly, and a bright space like daylight appeared. A long rectangle of straight, well-ordered rectangle, as if it had existed from ancient times. Moreover, all over the walls were written with indistinguishable red letters. Like most dungeons, traps are bound to hide in these places. If you touch the wall wrong, the window pops out, or the floor suddenly goes out.

K'rgos telepathically sent.

[There are no traps. Let's keep going.]

Oh, well, that's normal.

I didn't mean there was a trap.

As I swam to the end of the passage, I saw a large hole in the wall. And the light rising brightly from underneath it. We could instinctively feel that a huge underwater city lay beneath it. When we looked outside, we saw a new world that was certainly completely different from the ground.

the colorful and dazzling world of water

a scene as if one had come to a fairy-tale country

It was a creepy scene beyond surprise.

But the problem is.

That was not the only thing that gave me goose bumps. The party members looked around each other's faces and gulped with a nervous look. Looking at the countless number of creatures that exist in front of you.

[Woman] [Womaniacs] The numbers... look like about a hundred.]

[From the very beginning, this is what it looks like. Damn it! It's definitely not a normal dungeon level, it's an offensive level. This is why there are so many parties that are annihilating.]

[Fortunately, they haven't found us yet.]

I, too, quickly turned to the fishermen with a power of insight in my eyes.

Oh, my. Is there about a hundred fish with an average capacity of nearly 150?
