Chapter 40 < 13pg. The Tiger King's Bigi (3). >

“Here.”

Park Yong-wan's item warehouse was located in the basement of his mansion.

The tycoon who built this house was renovating the bomb shelter he had built as a storage unit in case of an emergency.

There were countless items in the warehouse.

‘It's just a warehouse. ’

T ra n s l a te d b y Jp mt l .ｃ om There were no Legendary grade items.

I didn't even expect him at first.

The fact that this house is still intact was the clearest evidence that there are no Legendary items in this warehouse.

‘You can only choose to wear it. ’

In addition, Kim Woo-jin was the only item he could choose to wear.

Park Yong-wan gave Kim Woo-jin an item to survive in the dungeon. He didn't give you an item to eat in exchange for shit.

‘I just need to pick something expensive. ’

Transl at ed by jpmt l.coｍ Of course, Kim Woo-jin was about to switch out, so he picked the most expensive item he could wear.

I handpicked weapons, armor, helmets, gloves, and boots.

“He likes expensive things. ”

Park Yong-wan spit in his face with a slightly thorny voice.

Kim Woo-jin replied.

“It's expensive because it's good. ”

“That's right. ”

Park Yong-wan, who was spitting, frowned slightly.

‘Tsk.'

From Park Yong-wan's point of view, this situation could not feel good.

Isn't he spending his own money, after all?

Nevertheless, there was only one reason for his patience.

To catch Skull Guild's weakness, there is no bait like Kim.

‘You have to invest this much to subdue the Skull Guild. ’

Of course, Park Yong-wan had no intention of going to war with the skull guild.

Who's behind this? ’ Trans l a t ed b y Jpｍ t l.com

In the beginning, Park Yong-wan still didn't know who the Skull Guild's patrons were.

On the contrary, that was why Park Yong-wan made this investment now.

Park Yong-wan now had a very strong bond with the powerful people in Korea.

However, the Skull Guild's supporters were not able to find Park Yong-wan.

‘I'm sure it's an outside force. ’

It means the force coming in from outside Korea, not from within Korea.

In order to negotiate with them, we needed to make contact.

‘Well, if you keep poking around, you'll keep your head down. ’

Of course, I did not intend to negotiate on an equal footing.

Park Yong-wan repeatedly stimulated the skull guild using Kim Woo-jin, and eventually only after the skull guild lowered their heads and reached out their hands to grab their hands.

In other words, the more difficult the skull guild was for Park Yong-wan.

That's why he opened his warehouse to Kim Woo-jin now.

"This?"

And that was why Kim Woo-jin had a chance not to come back again.

Trans l at ed by ｊpmtl .co ｍ Kim Woo-jin's footsteps stopped in a corner where he collected accessories.

His gaze was toward a necklace with a black stone the size of an unbreakable neonatal fist.

Kim Woo-jin grabbed the item.

[Necklace of Cursed Stones]

- Item Rank: Unique

- Available from Lv. 10 and higher.

- Item Description: A stone cursed by something. It has mysterious power.

- Magic Power +10 when equipped

- MP Recovery +10% when equipped

Immediately the Item Options window appeared.

However, there was no such option window in Kim Woo-jin's eyes.

Sealing Stone?

What was important to Kim Woo-jin was that the necklace was a stone that sealed the power of something.

Literally.

This crude black stone seals the power of an item.

Tr ansl a ted b y jp m tl .ｃ om Kim Woo-jin didn't even know what the item was.

‘That too is a unique grade of Seal Stone. ’

The important thing is that if the Seal Stone grade is unique, then what is inside is a minimum unique grade item.

Minimum Unique Rank was that a Rank greater than or equal could be desired.

Of course, Kim Woo-jin took the necklace.

Park Yong-wan threw a word at me.

“That's not an option, is it? ”

Kim Woo-jin answered the question.

“I don't have enough magic. Especially since the Vampire Skill you gave me was more magical than I thought. ”

It was a flawless answer.

“Well, if you like. ”

‘At least you saved money. ’

Above all, Park Yong-wan was satisfied that Kim Woo-jin had chosen the cheapest accessory.

‘As expected, Park Yong-wan doesn't know that this is a Sealing Stone. ’

He didn't know it was a Sealing Stone.

I had no choice.

It wasn't even marked on the item as a Sealing Stone, and I had to find a suitable way to destroy it.

‘Well, it's impossible to melt a Unique Grade Sealstone unless it's the stomach fluid of a golden dragon. ’

For example, gastric fluids for gold.

Even Woojin Kim properly recognized the concept of Sealing Stone after 2025.

“Is the choice done? ”

Of course, Kim Woo-jin would not complain.

“Yes, thank you very much. ”

All you have to do is look and smile and express your sincere gratitude.

8.

The fastest thing to go down since the monsters showed up was the golf courses.

In a situation where monsters didn't know when to show up, there was no fool playing golf on the pedestrian golf course, and the further away from the city, the worse it got.

The golf course in Gwangju, Gyeonggi-do, was also the same.

At one time, the membership market was more than KRW 100 million. On weekends or weekends, the new luxury cars, both expensive and blood-taxed, were no longer managed and were home to bushy gazelles and boars.

It's been a long time since I visited such a golf course.

There were expensive foreign cars in the parking lot that were hard to see before.

If you were quick to notice, you would have noticed that this is now a stage for players.

At that time, a vehicle appeared among the foreign car hordes.

The bumper was a dented light car.

The owner of course was Kim Woo-jin.

Kim Woo-jin appeared, as always, and ignored the expensive foreign cars around him.

Then Kim Woo-jin's footsteps stopped in front of the vehicle.

It's amazing to think of Konigseg, Bugatti, even a car over 2 billion won treated as a son of a bitch who makes parking.

Of course, it wasn't because the car that stopped me was more expensive and rare than those vehicles.

Is that Lexus?

The five cars in a row were Lexus.

Even all five together, it was nothing compared to Bugatti, where Kim Woo-jin almost fell to his knees.

Of course, there was a reason for stopping.

‘What a great patriot you are. ’

The fact that the owners of this vehicle were measured, that's why they stopped walking.

Such a step was swift.

As I walked into the clubhouse, the guests who had already come were seated one by one.

“A new ally. ”

Then one of them raised his voice and approached Kim Woo-jin.

He was a man of good looks in his early 40s.

“Hello, I'm Jeong Hun-young. Let's finish this dungeon once and for all. ”

Kim Woo-jin smiled and reached out his hand as he reached out with his description.

“Yes, thank you very much. ”

It wasn't weird.

It's common sense for different guilds to greet each other in advance of a dungeon attack.

The situation was completely different from when we attacked the first-floor dungeon.

Only those who went berserk with unreasonable confidence there who were filtered and survived were qualified to attack the second floor dungeon.

Those who attacked the two-story dungeon were bound to have some common sense.

I mean, the fact that I'm ahead of myself doesn't help me improve my lifespan.

Of course, the atmosphere was quiet.

At least not at any other time, not to expose each other's enemies to each other.

Rather, the players were gathering to talk.

“Have we met? ”

“No, I've never met you. ”

“I'm sorry."

“No, I hear that a lot. ”

As we had never seen each other, everyone started to recognize each other and recognize each other's faces.

Seeing that scene, Kim Woo-jin endured it.

‘I'll die pretending not to know each other. ’

I could hardly bear to let that absurd smoke blow up in front of me.

Literally.

None of these people are new here. Everyone was in on it, and what they were after was simple.

Dealing with Kim Woo-jin.

The skull guild draws out the best cards they can for it.

Of course, Kim Woo-jin knew why.

‘That's what you get for messing with the disciples in the palace. ’

Her death, a disciple of Park Yi-yeon's palace, was not to be passed on by Skull Guild or Yamato Federation.

Furthermore, the Skull Guild, of course, would have noticed that Kim Woo-jin had some skill behind it.

It was not a matter of just killing Kim Woo-jin.

‘You want to take me to the dungeon is proof that you want to torture me and get information. ’

It was more important for Skull Guild to know more about the situation through Kim Woo-jin's mouth.

That's why this stage was set up.

The reason why Skull Guild is eager to reveal their Hand and hunt down Kim Woo-jin.

"When this is over, it's practically a war with the Skull Guild. Then let's make it as hot as we can. ’

“Which way is the bathroom over there? ”

At that time, Kim Woo-jin asked Jeong Hun-young where the toilet was.

“There he is.”

“Thank you."

As soon as I heard the explanation, I left and went to the bathroom.

Although the water is already cut off and there are only toilets, it is still better than urinating on the road.

Then Jung Hyun-young followed behind him. I followed you.

“I'll go with you. ”

Kim Woo-jin nods at his appearance, and the two of them enter the bathroom together.

But they didn't see any business.

“It's Kim Woo-jin, right? ”

“Yes, you're my bodyguard, right? ”

“More of an assassin than an escort. ”

Jung Hyun-young's eyes were sharp.

“We'll discuss the details in the dungeon, so let's talk briefly. Your role is bait. Move alone. Then we'll be all over you. If it's a really urgent moment, blow this whistle. ”

With the horse, Jung Hun-young gave Kim Woo-jin a whistle that seemed to be made of bones.

“The raid is most likely on the second floor, as long as the opponent is not an idiot. So let's focus on the dungeon attack on the first floor. Avoid contact with us as much as possible. Once he realizes we're a team, they'll go to all-out war. ”

At that moment, Kim Woo-jin furiously patted his head with his whistle.

Jung Hyun-young said with a firm expression.

“What's on your mind? ”

“Can we give up this operation now? ”

Kim Woo-jin speaking was crying.

Jung Hyun-young was surprised at him and said.

“Give up?”

Jung Hyun-young's voice was too loud to reflexively block my mouth with my hands.

“Phew · · · · · · · ·. ”

Kim Woo-jin sighed a long time instead of answering.

It was not difficult to determine what it meant.

It's even weirder if you're new to being lured by those who are aiming for you on the stage attacking the dungeon on the first floor.

This will get us out of here. ’

On the contrary, it was a problem for Jeong Hun-young.

He had to somehow get Kim Woo-jin into the dungeon gate.

‘Damn, I spent all the money I already got from the Skull Guild on buildings. ’

Otherwise, you're gonna have to throw up money you've already spent.

“Did you say Kim Woo-jin? ”

“Yes.”

“It's not that hard. It's a two-story dungeon, but it's a D + rank. Honestly, it's a two-story level, but it's a little more subtle than the dungeon you cleared. There's no reason to be scared. ”

That's why Jung Hun-young convinced Kim Woo-jin.

“First and foremost, what happens next? The first step is to take a step someday. ”

“But · · · · · · · · ·. ”

“Is there another problem? ”

“I can't die like this. At least I won't die until I repay my debt to the people who helped me. ”

Debt.

The word flashed in Jeong Hyun-young's head.

“What a responsible friend you are. ”

Jung Hyun-young who was speaking said.

“Here's the deal. I'll repay your debt. ”

“Yes?”

Amazing Kim Woo-jin.

Jung Hyun-young smiled and said to him,

“You owe me instead. ”

“So · · · · · · · · · ·. ”

“For my sake, you have to go to the dungeon. Of course I'm not forcing you. So how much do I owe you? ”

Kim Woo-jin carefully spread three fingers on the question.

“30 million won? ”

“No, 300 million. ”

“300 million?”

It was a bigger amount than I thought.

But it was also a subtle sum.

‘If I put it together right now, that's enough. ’

You cannot collect it for the average person right now, but if you are a player that is over level 20, you can collect the amount you can collect.

‘It's not a price I can't afford compared to what I've paid for this. No, if he treats his items with jewelry, he won't lose anything. ’

That's why Jung Hyun-young was able to make a decision right away.

“Okay, there's nothing I can't do for you. ”

“Go, thank you. ”

“So the problem is gone? ”

Kim Woo-jin said with an impressive look.

“Yes.”

8.

“Hey, we've deposited 300 million won into Kim Woo-jin's dedicated account. ”

The servant frowns.

“300 million won? Damn, I never should have bought you that rib eye. Next time he asks you to buy him some food, you do it for him. That too, by default! No weddings, no Odeng! Tell him to drink the cold water! ”

“There it is. ”

“What's that? ”

“But the deposit account is someone else's account. ”

Oh Se Chan tilted his head.

“Anyone else? ”

“This is Jeong Hun-young's nominal account. ”

“Jeong Hun-young? PK Specialist? Are you sure?”

“Yes, this is the account we created. ”

“No, why did Jeong Hun-young put the money in her nominal account into Kim Woo-jin's dedicated account? ”

He said as if he remembered something.

“Jeong Hyun-young recently sent money laundering through our side, right? ”

“Yes.”

“Where did the money come from? ”

“I only guessed towards the Skull Guild. The money was somewhat laundered, so the details are good. ”

“Does that mean that the guy behind the skull guild is spending money on Kim Woo-jin, who is now going to kill him? ”

Then he said as if he had remembered something.

“Kim Woo-jin fell into a trap. ”

There was no detailed situation, but it was clear that Jung Hyun-young who paid Kim Woo-jin was not Kim Woo-jin's ally.

“Kim Woo-jin is dangerous. ”

A frown frowns on his servant's warning.

“What are you talking about? ”

“Isn't it dangerous? Kim Woo-jin fell into a trap, didn't he? ”

“How many guys like Jeong Hun-young need to break through the A-rank dungeon on the second floor that Kim Woo-jin cleared in a week? ”

“I don't know. Maybe 30? ”

“It's Jung Hun-young who's in danger. ”

Odessan, who was speaking, closed his eyes.

‘Kim Woo-jin has been attacked twice by the Skull Guild and stopped them both. ’

I was somewhat aware of Kim Woo-jin's relationship with the Skull Guild.

‘In that situation, if we can prevent this third attack completely, we will actually declare war on the Skull Guild from then on. ’

If Kim Woo-jin stops the Skull Guild from working again, he knew what would happen after that.

I could also see what kind of signal Kim Woo-jin was sending towards me.

"Enemies can be friends. ’

Oh Se-chan smiled.

“Check the location of Woojin Kim and send someone there. With a bottle of champagne. ”
