Chapter Twenty-Three: Demonic Swordsman Kang

After establishing a contract with Kim Chol, Jae Woo returns home and visits Arth.

In order to begin the leveling in earnest, he went to the vast forests of eastern Altain.

"Wow. ”

Conou was in awe

He saw a tree. It is 15 stories high, but just as large.

It was an endless Agrasi tree. Although, this is a dead tree, so it no longer grows.

"Thought it was a young man. ”

The 15-storey Agrahi tree is clearly on the small side.

These Agrahi trees, which have grown for more than 10,000 years, are large enough to be considered world trees.

In any case, there is a low-level dungeon in this colony of dead tree-shade spiders.

The colony is home to a large number of level 10 to 15 cobwebs.

It was an environment full of webs, poisons, and spiders, ready to attack prey from the ceiling.

They are indeed low-level monsters, but they are difficult for newbies to defeat, so most players do not come looking for this dungeon.

To make matters worse, there is no real incentive to come here due to the monsters that don't have bosses, as they won't get any particularly rare items here.

That's why Cono is here.

Because it means that Cono can take them over on his own without hindrance.

Of course, a person needs to be able to defeat them alone, but he does not have to worry about this.

"After all, we're talking about me. ”

For the devil swordsman Kang, this place is like a big crab.

With his SS-grade demon sword, he can break the shell and pull out the flesh underneath!

There is no reason to hesitate.

Conou immediately entered the dungeon.

[Enter the Shade Spider's colony.] ]

Unsurprisingly, there are no other players in the dungeon. Instead, the shade spider (shade spider) violently greets the unexpected guest.

Kijek!

Two spiders fall from the ceiling.

Shadow spiders are zebra stripes, and the more stripes they have, the more powerful they become. According to the stripes, he believes that the stripes are about level 10.

Con'ou unsheathed Ubister and was ready.

That's all the reason why he (as a Tier 1 player) was able to enter the "Shadow Spider" colony without fear!

"Hurry up. ”

Con Ou swings his sword horizontally, and the Dark Strike is activated.

His sword emitted a wave of black energy similar to that of a beast.

A truly devastating blow!

The spider died, not even screaming.

"It didn't steal any data. ”

When wielding the Demon Sword (Ubiste), the Dark Strike skill is activated, and the statistics of killed enemies have a fixed chance of being stolen.

good

Once their comrades were killed, the other Shadow Spiders rushed over excitedly.

Cono is only level 1, but his super-instincts are able to evade attacks.

As he dodged the attack, he swung his sword repeatedly at the same time.

He chopped them down again and again with a dark black blade. Dark Strike is not activated, but after his third slash ...

[You have upgraded.] ]

[Your HP, MP, and status have improved.] ]

[You can now assign new stat points.] ]

In the end, he reached level 2!

He finally graduated from Level 1.

Conou quickly reached level 10. It makes sense. Because he's the only one here.

Ike

Three shade spiders sprayed poison from the ceiling.

That's why beginners avoid this area!

The antidote is too expensive for beginners. If they are poisoned, they will be forced to retreat or die.

But Cono is different. He can rely on his super-instincts to avoid their poison.

Even if he is beaten, it is not a problem.

Once he becomes a Devil Swordsman, his poison resistance increases, so there is little chance that he will be poisoned by these shade spiders.

"Die!"

Cono rushed unhindered towards the spider.

Every time he wielded the Demon Sword, red shards spread through the air.

Because he attacked everywhere his "super-intuition" sensed, he was repeatedly severely attacked.

Therefore, he tirelessly killed the spider and pushed it to the top of the tree.

Since it is a tree-shaped dungeon, once he reaches the top of the mountain, he must descend in the same way.

To stop him from advancing, spiders keep coming at him.

However...

Dodge, dodge, dodge!

Their attacks never touched him.

It's a combination of gamers with a demonic swordsman class that boasts devastating attack abilities and super intuition.

These form an incredible synergy.

[Secondary property evasion has been created.] ]

[The higher the statistic, the more likely you are to avoid the attack.] ]

In addition, he even got additional data!

Cono is an irresistible force that has swept through the colony of shade spiders.

Conou jumped to the lower area. He had reached the top of the mountain and was descending the mountain.

One more time, and he will reach the exit.

However...

He suddenly felt something strange.

'What is this?'

His super-instincts led him towards the wall formed by the bark.

This is different from his super-instincts that warn him of danger or point out weaknesses.

It tells him that the wall itself is suspicious and that there is something behind it.

Conou brushed the bark wall with the palm of his hand.

He sensed two different sensations from the wall.

First of all just the bark of the wall of dry exterior. On the other hand, he thinks it's very sturdy.

To ensure this, Con swung his sword against the hard walls.

Light

Good!

He had thought it was a wall of bark rushing at him.

It happened suddenly, and his hair was punctured.

"Hell!?"

Instinctively, he wielded his sword.

Healthy!

The demonic sword flicked off immediately, but so did what was flying towards him.

On closer inspection, it's a spider.

It is a spider that has the same style and color as a tree.

However, even though it is a spider, its two front legs are as thick as sticks. It is smaller than a bull.

[You've found shade spiders, rashes.] ]

[You were the first to discover this.] ]

"A monster named Monster!"

As the name suggests, a named monster is a monster with a name. They are more powerful than normal monsters and also use special skills.

In addition, they have a higher chance of dropping rare items compared to normal monsters.

In other words, they are the rankers of the monster world!

"Give me something!"

Conou rushed to the rash.

,!

Rush, in turn, screamed and shook his thick front legs. They quickly exchanged several blows with each other.

It's hard. '

Whenever his demonic sword came into contact with the carapace of the rash, it made a striking sound, as if striking metal.

It is completely different from the carapace of an ordinary shade spider, which breaks off like a pine plank.

However, he still had his sword.

SS Demon Sword!

He is unable to completely break through the carapace of the rash, but he constantly creates tiny cracks on the surface of the rash.

Conou was definitely the leader!, but then, Rush's body shook.

Dee - Dee - Dee !

The rash screamed, sounding a lot like one.

[Rash is calling his allies.] You'll soon be surrounded by spiders. ]

"It's a real pain!"

Cono decided to take him down as soon as possible.

"Can we?"

Cono recalled the technique of "dividing the sea" (removing the sea) that he had seen from the swordsman Valan (Valan).

That destructive force has split the Demon King Ubis in two!

Conou focused on his sword and immediately let go of all power.

He carved a white line into the air.

This is the result of his great skill!

At the same time, Dark Strike is activated.

A white line forms on the body of the rash, followed by waves from the dark blow.

Light

This was followed by an explosion, and the body of the rash was etched into two white lines, on which white lines were etched.

[You are the first to defeat the Shade Spider.] ]

[As a reward for being the first to defeat it, the monster drops the highest level item it can drop.] ]

[You learned the slash spontaneously.] ]

[You have upgraded.] ]

Several joyful messages appeared one after another.

The rash once went to the place where the leader of a channel knew where it appeared.

[You've discovered the hidden dungeon, the Spider Queen, Alishi's lair.] ]

[You were the first to discover this.] ]

[Your fame has increased.] ]

[Your proficiency in hunting from the lair of the Spider Queen Aris has increased by 2x.] The item drop rate has also been doubled. ]

He was the first to discover this hidden dungeon!

No one had ever entered, but the entrance was right in front of him.

The rash left useless items and rings.

[Protective ring for rash]

A ring containing the Earth Spider's (rash) defenses.

Immunity to any spider poison below level 50.

Ranking: BB Company

Skills: Defense +10, Physical +2, Spirit +1

Conditions: At least level 15

In Arth, the player can equip a ring on each hand.

Once the rash was defeated, Con'ou reached level 15, so he immediately equipped the ring.

With this, he is completely resistant to spider venom!

Next, he examines the skills he had just learned.

[Cut]

Powerful slashes. It inflicts shallow injuries, and if it is hit, the final attack will be a fatal blow.

Classification: Active/Skill

MP company dosage: 10

Cooldown: 10 seconds

Rank: Beginner

Proficiency: 0%

"Well, the guess isn't bad. ”

Slash is a basic combat skill for swordsmen.

This is a useful skill, as the wound caused by the attack will always deal a critical hit.

"Okay, that's it. Ariz, hehe......"

Cono smiled and looked at the entrance to the hidden dungeon.

Ariz, the spider queen!

He could only name names. It's the boss monster!

It is known that the colony of shade spiders does not have boss monsters. However, it does have one. It's just hidden.

"I'm absolutely sure!"

Twice the proficiency and drop rate!

Moreover, he will be the first to take down the boss monster, so he will drop the best items.

On top of that, defeating a hidden dungeon boss gives him the chance to accumulate a lot of wealth.

The game is designed so that the longer the boss monster survives, the more wealth it has.

In other words, he will be able to gain experience, items, and money in one place!

Con Ou excitedly walked forward.

Darkness at the entrance enveloped him.

[Enter the Spider Queen, the lair of Ariz.] ]

Cono surveyed his surroundings.

Ariz's Lair goes underground.

The earthen walls are strewn with tree roots, and there are cobwebs everywhere.

He didn't see any monsters.

However, all of a sudden he felt a chill in his feet. His super-instincts sense danger!

At the same time, spiders pop out of the ground. They look similar to the rash named shade spider, but they are much smaller.

Yes!

These "Earth Shadow Spiders" lurk underground and pop up when they sense their prey.

Even then, they didn't even approach him.

He swung his sword a few times, slicing them into pieces like firewood.

After that, the spiders continued to pour out of the ground, and soon after, the spider corpses were piled up again!

It was a massacre.

The ground spider had no chance of stopping him.

At some point, Conor had reached the end of the dungeon and was touched by a door.

"This is the boss's room!"

Of course, just right for the boss's residence, two monsters named Monster guard the entrance.

The two named monsters, Cash and Kalash, are shade spiders that resemble skin rashes.

"Two monsters named, hehe!"

Conou immediately rushed in.

Spit!

Kalash spits a large amount of poisonous liquid at Conou, and Cash shoots a spider web at him.

Cobwebs stained his feet, and toxic liquids obscured his vision.

[You've dabbled in cobwebs.] ]

[Your movement speed has slowed down.] You are covered in cobwebs. Your movements are restricted. ]

[You are hit by a toxic liquid.] ]

[Since you are immune to spider venom, you won't take any harm.] ]

He won't stop prosecuting just because of cobwebs and poison.

Conou grabbed the magic sword with both hands and pushed it off the ground, immediately distancing himself from Cash, who spat out a spider web.

He jumped off the ground, wielding his greatsword.

Following the trajectory of his sword, a white line was etched into the air.

This is a different skill from Dark Strike.

He used to use slashes.

Cash crossed his thick legs and blocked the demonic sword.

good

The demon sword collided with Cash's sturdy front legs.

However, Conou is second to none.

[A wound is created by a slash.] If the wound is attacked, then the attack inflicted will be a fatal blow. ]

Conou immediately took another offensive action.

His goal was nothing more than a wound he had inflicted on Cash's front leg!

Southwest!

His sword gouged open the wound.

Red shards shoot out!

By attacking the wound, he was hit hard.

Kich!

Cash yelled.

Kalash, who had used poison, helped Cash in the past.

But before that, Con'ou tried to push Cash down.

'Weakness!'

His super-intuition was activated. The area that connects the head and body is Cash's weak point.

"Hey!"

Conou attacks Cash's weak point, and this time, the Dark Strike activates.

Plus, it's a serious blow!

Cash's body was shocked and hurt tremendously.

However, it did not go down.

Cash's (Cash) black marble-like eyes turn red.

[Cash's health is below 10%, and it will now go berserk.] ]

Yes!

Cash roared, shaking his front legs casually.

Now the berserk Cash is very fast, at least twice as fast as Kalash.

"Ahh ”

Conou quickly raised his sword to defend himself, but Cash's leg grazed his shoulder.

[You take 112 damage.] ]

[HP Remaining: 468]

"Damn it!"

Once the balance was restored, Conou attacked Cash again. More specifically, he tried to attack it.

However, Kalash (Kalash) was nearby and attacked from behind.

It turned into a close-quarters fight.

Cono dodges their attacks and rolls to the floor. And the "shade spider" named "shade spider" will scream and wave its front legs at him!

"pH,. ”

Conou breathed heavily. His stamina quickly ran out.

Kalash is not a big problem.

But Cash is. It's just that grazing his body with its legs will cause him considerable damage.

Kangou's HP quickly dropped below 30%.

He covered his body with a demonic sword.

Since the blade of the Demon Sword is both wide and long, he can block all lifeforms from the top of his head to the ball.

Cash hit the sword with his front leg.

Kang!

The sound of metal rang out, and Cash was actually the one being pushed back.

'Now!'

Again and again, Conou attacked the injured area.

Red shards squirt into the air!

Cono kept wielding his sword.

White! White! Parker!

In the end, Cash fell.

[You defeated the Earth Spider (Cash).]

Since he had already defeated Rash, he did not become the first to defeat Cash.

Now all that remains is Kalash.

If crazy Kashgar is like a tiger, then Kalash is like a tortoise. In other words, a piece of cake.

In any case, he was immune to its poison and leisurely dodged its attacks while weaving himself.

When he lowered his HP to a certain point, Conou rushed it like a gust of wind so as not to go crazy.

The dark blow accompanied him with his final blow, and Kalash fell.

[You have defeated the Earth Shadow Spider (Kalash).] ]

[Data has been stolen via "Dark Strike.] ]

[Magic +1]

"Oh. ”

Conou held his breath in anticipation. It felt like the boss's room was urging him to come in.
