Chapter 5

(Screams!

Sa- save me!!

YuWon's footsteps accelerated by a distant scream.

Here we go.

Tutorial No. 2 was a stage that paid 100 points an hour.

I can't believe you're paying me points just by sitting still. It sounded like a pretty good mission at first glance.

However, the tutorial was not so easy, as it was the gateway to selecting who would enter the tower.

Push.

Kirick, Kishish-.

A strange, flat cry came from the floor.

It was the result of hitting the sashimi knife in his hand on the floor.

[First, we got rid of Earth Worm] [300 points will be paid] [Random stat 2 points will be paid] [Muscle strength increased by 1.] [Principal has risen by 1.]

Pleasant messages.

As expected, the tutorial was generous in compensation as it selected the criteria for entering the tower and helped the tower grow.

Upon checking the message, YuWon looked down at the bug that rose from the floor.

"Us Warm."

A worm with a huge mouth and sharp teeth. At first glance, he looked like a giant earthworm.

'Out of the safe zone, they're targeted.'

That was what a safe zone meant.

Safe zone from Earth Wim.

And YuWon was just outside.

Zoebuck, Zoebuck-.

YuWon went down the stairs.

He was on edge, and he closed my eyes.

'They're out of sight anyway.'

Earth Worms climbs through the floor and hunts for food. Of course there was no point in walking with your eyes open.

When you close your eyes, you become more sensitive to your sense of dependence on sight.

I had no choice but to rely on hearing, touch, and instinct beyond the five senses.

Wiggle-.

YuWon raised his foot.

Woody-

Hey.

Quack-!

Earth Wim's head, which came up through the floor with his mouth wide open, was trampled.

It was the result of crushing Earth Wim's head in time.

YuWon swung a sashimi knife in his hand as it was.

Swoosh.

[The level has gone up]] [Muscle strength increased by 1.] [Principal has risen by 1.] [Sense increased by 1.]

As the head was cut off, Earth Wim's breathing was cut off.

He only caught two, but the level went up. It seems that there is not much experience left until the level up.

Of course, the experience was pretty good considering that.

I had no choice but to.

In the first place, Earthworm wasn't the kind of monster that appeared to catch in this tutorial.

Besides, unlike zombies, Earth Wim's vitality was not that tough. The only danger he had was to be out of sight.

"If you do well on the second tutorial, you can take both experience and points.'

That's right.

YuWon kept going down the stairs.

A fairly deep staircase.

Earthworms live underground. They build their own caves, and they settle in themselves.'

YuWon opened his eyes.

Then I read the letters that were marked nearby.

[Hongdae Station]

subway station

It is the largest underground site where YuWon is conducting a tutorial.

"Uswim doesn't breathe underground, he can hold his breath for a long time.'

Therefore, a large home was not an option but a necessity for them.

I mean…

YuWon opened his eyes, which he had slowly closed.

Siric-, shi-.

Cards-.

"They're gathered in the widest basement."

There's no need to keep your eyes closed anymore.

Earth Wims full of people.

It was time to pay attention to the ground, not to the feet.

[Hidden Dungeon – Found Hongdae Station] [Acquired 100 points]

"Bingo."

This was not the Hongik University entrance that YuWon already.

The nest of Earth Wims up there, ready to eat those who haven't entered the safe zone.

In other words, it was a dungeon.

See-y-y.

Cards-.

Earth worms, who found YuWon, wriggled up.

They were funny faces.

Originally, they hid themselves in the ground and even forgot their identity.

I think he's in a hurry after seeing the prey in front of him.

Oh, my god, oh, my god.

As he approached YuWon, he cut down the Earth worms that showed his teeth and crushed the body of the jungle road.

Experience levels have come in quite robustly.

"You're lucky."

The existence of the Hidden Dungeon was YuWon's prediction.

Earth Wim were literally "bugs" that were hard to call monsters at the tower.

But even those guys become menacing monsters in the tutorial. Especially, it was very dangerous for people who did not have proper skills or stats yet to hide themselves under the ground.

"Thanks to you, I'm good with my experience."

Swoosh.

YuWon cut down one more Earth Wim that came close.

Earth Wim rushing in front of his eyes was no longer a threatening monster.

It was just a little big bug with teeth.

"As long as we have found a nest, hunting is not that difficult.'

When I thought so.

Tuck.

Deguru-.

A bead fell out of the mouth of the Earth Wim that YuWon knocked down.

"Huh?"

YuWon picked up a rolling bead on the floor.

"What's this?"

YuWon's lips rolled up in an unexpected harvest.

Is this what you get from tutorial 2?'

It was an interesting fact.

Information that YuWon knew was not continuously known because no one had hunted Earth Wim from Tutorial 2.

YuWon packed the beads in his pocket.

I have a reason to work harder.

"Now level 17."

There was a separate goal YuWon wanted in tutorial 2.

And YuWon came up with the minimum conditions for that.

'First of all, make it from level 20.'

So YuWon walked towards the lovely chunks of experience before him.

* * *

Time flew by without a hitch.

There was nothing I could do. People in the safe zone were closing their eyes, turning their heads outside.

Outside the safe zone was like hell.

There were bugs that were eating the rest of the flesh away from people.

"I can't catch a single cockroach.…."

"I'd rather bite my tongue and die than be eaten by something like that."

"Go, you're not coming in all of a sudden, are you?""

"Stop, don't tell me… They say it's safe here."

Even though there were 2,000 people, the sound of words was not that loud.

It was because I thought bugs would appear under my feet if I made the sound a little louder.

The safe zone was still.

He was careful to say a word, so it was natural.

Let's go on like that.

[Three hours have elapsed.] [Acquired 100 points]

With the message, additional points came in.

"Oh, that's the point."

"This is like money?"

"100 points is a lot?"

Kim Myung-hoon and others were also interested in the points.

If you have a point, you can use the item in the store.

So far, it's only a couple of points, but with 100 points, you'll have a few to choose from.

then

[The red zone will be disabled.] [Limited number of people: 1867 / 1500] [If the number of people exceeds the limit, they will be deported out of the safe zone at random.]

With the message, some people's bodies began to move.

Interest-.

"Uh, uh?"

"Oh, no!"

Gee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee

Something invisible dragged people outside.

The red color on the edge of the safety zone that had been painted on the floor disappeared.

It was no longer safe there.

Another bug poked its head into the spot.

Open your mouth wide open your mouth.

Crack.

"Argh!"

People who were dragged outside and those who were at the edge were attacked.

There was nowhere to escape.

No matter how far he ran and ran away, he was only eaten by insects that rose from the floor again.

"Beauty, crazy..."."

"Is this shrinking?"

"I didn't mean to...."

I thought the color of the floor would mean something.

Among them, some thought that maybe over time, the safe zone could decrease.

And that's the same for Kim Myung-hoon.

'So, how far does it go down?''

The innermost seat is purple.

And the outermost seat was red.

"In the innermost seat, how many people can there be?"

Kim Myung-hoon confirmed the remaining time.

[Time Remaining: 02:57:11]

2 hours and 57 minutes.

Maybe after all that time....

"Rain, get out of the way!"

"I, I'm coming in!"

"Darn it, get out of here we go! You want to die? Do you want to die in my hands first?"

"Get out of the way! Why are you blocking the way!"

In a flash, the surrounding area became the head of Asura.

Kim Myung-hoon's head was spinning fast.

At that moment.

"Be quiet, everyone-!"

Kim Myung-hoon stood up and shouted.

For a moment, silence came. Kim Myung-hoon hurriedly opened his mouth, calming his fast-pounding heart.

"From now on, we are...."

Line dividing orange and yellow.

Kim Myung-hoon, who was looking at the line, continued.

"I have to decide who to kill on my behalf."

Gulp.

That was cruel.

But I couldn't help it.

'We can't all be inside.'

Then, like just now, someone is thrown out at random.

I mean…

"I am."

Kim Myung-hoon pointed to an elderly grandfather who was the closest to him, who was not often seen on the streets of Hongdae.

"I'll kill this old man."

Kill someone, so I can live.

That was the heart of tutorial 2.

* * *

Quack-!

The axe hit the Earthworm's head. The Earthworm, which was rushing right in front of it, lost its strength and fell to the floor, splitting its head on its ax.

Puh-huh.

Shua-ah!

YuWon turned around and swung a jungle island in his other hand.

At the same time, two Earthworms running from behind cut their heads.

[The level has gone up]] [Principal has risen by 1.] [Stamina increased by 1.] [Sense increased by 1.] [Reached level 20] [New Stat – Mana opens]

As soon as the level went up, YuWon heard the message he had been waiting for.

"…That's enough."

YuWon exhaled a short breath. No matter how much the stamina stats went up, I could have been exhausted since I moved for nearly three hours.

But fortunately, I got stronger at the same time as I leveled up, and my body feels lighter than before maybe because of the opening of a new stat.

Tuck, thump- thump.

Deguru-.

Another bead fell on the floor.

YuWon packed the beads and put them back in his bag. A bag full of beads had become quite heavy before I knew it.

[Name: Kim YuWon] [Level : 20] [Muscle strength: 28] [Fidget : 26] [Stamina: 27] [Sense: 24] [Magic: 13] [Hold Point: 3527] [Free start point : 5]

It was quite a changed stat compared to the first time. Most of the stats were in the mid-20s, and they still had the stats points they earned as rewards.

In addition, new stats that are open at level 20.

YuWon's stats were already well beyond what was achievable in Tutorial 2.

Three random stat points as rewards for hunting uswim. One free stat point....'

It was not a bad reward.

Although it's a little short of what I expected.

'It's hard to expect a bigger reward until we catch him.'

YuWon used the free stat points he had saved.

[Distribute free stat points]] [Horsepower increased by 5.]

He invested all of his free stat points that he had been saving as compensation in horsepower.

For others, you'll have to work quite hard to figure out what this mana stats are.

But YuWon knew.

Of the five stats, none was more important than horsepower.

[Magic: 18]

"Not bad."

YuWon, who had closed his eyes for a moment, nodded at the mana flowing through his body.

YuWon's Mana Stats started at 13.

As I found out later, the 13 horsepower stats were so high that it was unprecedented.

People without talent usually start with 5 to 6, and people with talent start with 9 to 11.

And very, very few, say they were blessed by the tower, pointing to people starting with 12 stats.

And YuWon started at 13, and already had a Mana Stat of 18.

"Hey."

YuWon looked around the Earth Wims all dead.

"You're watching, aren't you?"

What you ask in the air.

After a while.

How did you know?

A finger-sized clown.

Administrator's Lakey appeared in YuWon'sWon.
