Episode 93
“Blessing of Light!”
Users who were engrossed in systematic party hunting with various buffs and attack support in the rear, defending against attacks with a sturdy shield, stopped.
“...Is this because of my mood? “Why is Regen so boring?”
“I know. “Is this strange?”
Monsters have decreased noticeably!
Although it wasn’t as big as the dungeon, the Mist Abandoned Mine was one of the best hunting grounds. Because monsters are replenished at a rapid rate to match the huge scale of the mine.
But something was strange. The amount of experience increase has decreased noticeably a few hours ago. The party members couldn’t help but be confused.
The paladin looked around and said.
“What, it looks like other parties are in the same situation?”
It seemed to be the same for other parties as well. A woman wearing a dagger in both hands gave her opinion.
“If we keep going like this, it’s too inefficient for party hunting. Why don’t we go a little deeper? Well, they say there are a lot of traps and stronger guys are pouring in, but if we can work together...”
Absolutely. The rest of the party members suddenly shook their heads.
The paladin answered on behalf of the paladin.
“Raspberry, how long have you been hunting in this mine?”
“About a week?”
“It’s only a week, so it’s easy to not know. We have been hunting in an abandoned mine for a month. To be honest, I now have a good understanding of the complex structure of the mine and the good locations. but.”
“...but?”
Raspberry swallowed dryly at the serious expression on the paladin’s face.
“We decided to draw attention to the remaining areas except for the entrance to the abandoned mine. The reason is simple. “Because our party was wiped out because we were greedy like you.”
“I was wiped out?”
A party of this high standard?
Raspberry couldn’t believe it. A party with a paladin and a priest holding on at the same time will not easily collapse. Due to the synergy effect of various buffs, not only defense but also combat sustainability is excellent. Raspberry asked cautiously.
“What on earth is inside the abandoned mine?”
Slam! The paladin opened his palm covered in plate.
“Five named monsters.”
“Do you have five named monsters?”
It was information that made a lot of sense. Named monsters are treated as boss monsters in field hunting grounds.
Because it has a high chance of dropping good items as well as experience points.
Five such named monsters appear!
Raspberry asked back.
“Wait a minute, don’t you understand if that’s true? In general, everyone is crazy about named monsters. “There are five of them, but no one goes inside?”
The paladin shook his head once again.
“It’s too picky.”
“Are you a ghost type? No, even if it’s a ghost type, it doesn’t matter as long as it has the light attribute buff. Or is it that their level is higher than I thought?”
“That’s right, all five named monsters are ghost types and their level is over 300. But that’s not the point, raspberry. “They are working together.”
“Hapgong?”
“Yes, just like we formed a party, these guys also come together like a party. “Each person has a different role, but they perform that role perfectly.”
Raspberry was finally able to understand.
Named monsters basically have enormous stamina, resistance, and even unique skills. If those guys come together and do activities...
mate! Raspberry, who had been quietly rolling her head, clapped.
“Yes, life is more important than anything else. What good is it if you die while hunting hard? It’s a mob, if you wait, it will come out someday. Well, should we at least light a wood fire like them?”

At that time, X was competing.
Shashashak! Figures that fall as soon as you swing your sword.
“Ha, there is no progress. “Development.”
Compete with yourself!
X was busy hunting, comparing himself now to a minute ago. Was there any unnecessary movement or were there any twists in the steps? The reason for doing this was simple.
‘Should I do it like this or am I too bored?’
The Mist Abandoned Mine was a very easy hunting ground for X. The monster that mainly appeared was the Iron Puppet.
His level is around 270, so he is quite difficult for users of that level.
Shashak!
Crispy! The arrow went straight into the skull.
The guy in charge of defense tried to throw his body away, but it was too much for his skinny body to block the arrows. The healer, the core and nucleus of the party, died.
At that moment, Tiroling! A notification rang.
[Your level has risen!]
“...Huh?”
I had quite a bit of experience left to level up, but my level went up right away. I only caught one... X opened his mouth in wonder.
“Is it true that each and every one of them is a named monster?”
Only then did I understand the empty center of the abandoned mine.
Even though it was only once, these skeletons withstood their own attack using bear stance. Because those guys were holding on, regular users couldn’t even think of approaching them.
There are five named monsters!
I wondered what kind of windfall this was. X quenched his appetite.
“If I catch you guys, I’ll be level 250 right away.”
And even items. What else is there to think about?
Scum!
X launched an onslaught. No matter how named the monster was, it was impossible to withstand X’s attack using the bear stance.
Crispy! Let’s go!
Just 30 seconds.
[Your level has gone up!]
[Your level has gone up!]
“Nice!”
X, who defeated the remaining skeletons in 30 seconds, eventually achieved level 250. X, who was delighted, immediately placed his hand on the broken skeleton.
Flash! Heavenly Capture was activated and an item surfaced.
“...huh?”
A question appeared on X’s face. It’s not a disappointment, but it doesn’t look like it’s a big hit either.
However, X reached for the next skeleton.
“...what?”
And then again.
“...Uh huh?”
X’s expression after checking all five skeleton items was mysterious. X, who had been silent, listed the items he had acquired from his inventory.
Plate helmet witch hat bow leather shoes cross necklace.
These were the equipment worn by each skeleton. Even at first glance, it didn’t look good. No matter how excellent an item is, it cannot withstand the passage of time. X checked the information once again.
– Plate helmet that has lost its shine (quest)
A helmet that protected someone.
-Witch hat that lost its magic (quest)
A hat that someone used to wear.
-Broken Bow (Quest)
A bow that someone loved.
-worn leather shoes (quest)
Shoes used to accompany someone.
-Cross Necklace (Quest)
A necklace that someone was holding and praying for.
They were all quest items. It’s also a quest item that seems to have a deep story.
That means the skeletons that were mercilessly beaten just now...
‘Don’t they look like complete villains?’
Greedy villain X!
It felt like he had done something bad, but X brushed it off right away.
It can’t be helped, right? The reason you drop the quest item when you die is that the hidden story will only be revealed when you eventually fall to someone.
X immediately took the items and stood up.
“We achieved our goal... but we can’t just pass by, right?”
A quest where you never know what rewards and stories might be intertwined!
Because cats can’t just pass by a fishmonger.
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
