Chapter 4 Statue
“Whoa. after.”
I squatted and let out a rough breath.
How long had it been since you hid in the bush and moved?
The calf is pulled and the bent waist is stiff.
There were also many scars from cuts in the wild bushes.
My eyes are sweaty and it stings.
I can’t possibly do it. I need to get some rest.
I put my ass on the floor.
Moving while being conscious of the goblins you might encounter at any moment required a lot of tension. Even if it is expected that there will be many goblins instead of just one or two.
Fortunately or unfortunately, I haven’t encountered a goblin yet.
Looking at the clock, it was about three hours.
“It seems that I have taken the wrong path.”
I turned the clockwork and poked my head out slightly over the bush.
At some point, the vacant lot is not visible.
In case they were discovered first, they lowered their stance as much as possible, fearing that they would attack them first, but it seems that they did not find the right direction.
No matter how good your sense of direction is, going back and forth between featureless bushes is difficult.
It would be a little more daring to deal with naked guys, but one of them is holding a knife.
The story that three or four might stab me while holding me.
Should I set the direction even if I take a little risk?
-The
moment I took out a canteen from my backpack and quenched my thirst, I heard a presence not far away.
I immediately fell to the floor.
I could see the bushes swaying over the reporter’s head as I put the canteen in plain sight and crawled forward.
“Kiruk.”
it’s a goblin
one too.
He moved and I followed him, killing as much as possible.
20 minutes like that. Arrived in a new space.
‘It’s not an empty lot.’
space far away. what is this place It was a place that felt much more artificial than an empty lot.
It was similar that there were not many bushes around, but the floor was tiled.
feels very old.
There are half-broken pillars everywhere. There was also a wall with an unknown pattern engraved on it.
Is it where the building used to be?
‘What are you doing?’
We know that there are various obstacles and artificial structures in the dungeon.
Although he was a porter, he went to the dungeon many times.
But I’ve never seen a monster act that way.
“Kiruluk. Kiruk.”
What’s so good about it is that the goblin dances and moves.
He was drawing a circle and inside it.
“statue?”
There was a statue of about 60 centimeters in size.
person? It is the same as being an angel and the same as not being an angel.
In a way, it looked like a monster, but it was strangely clean.
furthermore.
– Woo woo woo,
even a faint vibration.
Is that an item?
No way. It’s not anywhere else, it’s a tutorial section.
even on the first floor. Where to start the tower.
It’s normal to have no common sense.
pounding.
Instinct was saying no.
A fixed gaze without my knowledge.
I felt like I could feel the vibration of the statue in sync with my heartbeat.
‘no way.’
I suddenly got goosebumps.
One hypothesis running through my head.
The reason why the government and the guild joined hands to spread false tutorial strategies.
Maybe it was to monopolize the hidden reward.
[Kill Goblin (0/1)]
Then another thought came to me.
Conditions to go up to the next floor.
Kill a goblin.
It was also a trap of some kind. I said I could kill one goblin, but I didn’t say there was only one.
If you use your imagination a little more, it might mean that you can hunt more than one.
Literally, one is just the minimum condition to open a portal.
‘There are hidden rewards in the tower.’
The conditions for obtaining it and the way to obtain it vary greatly, but there are definitely.
Right away, Kim Han-seong, a domestic S-class hunter, said this.
There are hidden treasures and talents in the tower, and the only way to climb the tower is to claim it.
Is it to prove your point?
He boldly showed the treasure he had acquired on camera.
S-class equipment Arya’s shield.
S-class artifact Abyssal Earring.
Those who leave the tower return with the equipment they had at the time of their death.
The items he showed were also obtained from the tower.
how can you believe
‘Because S-class equipment has never appeared in dungeons. At least officially.’
Outstanding artisans are also limited in making AA-level equipment.
All the S-class equipment currently circulating in the Hunter world came from the Tower.
then.
If the statue in front of you is the reward.
-Kirik
“There is no need to hesitate.”
I blocked the mouth of the one who came towards me among the scattered ones and thrust the dagger into it.
slowly. I took my time and held him until he died completely.
Took.
I put the motionless guy behind a pillar and stepped forward.
With this, there are two goblins left.
The reason to ambush is gone. In fact, I don’t think I’ll even be able to do it.
I must have come to my senses because the two started moving together.
It didn’t look very stupid.
“This way, guys.”
I waved my bloody dagger and called out to the goblin.
“Kiruk!”
“Kyaaaaaagh!”
Guys with a threatening cry.
Did you see the bloodstain? Even though he gritted his teeth, he didn’t rush into it.
Then you should make it come.
-I
took out the statue I had put in my backpack.
The goblin’s gaze changed in an instant.
It was obsession and greed.
“okay. It is a statue that you are crazy about.”
-Kang Kang
I lightly tapped the statue with a dagger to provoke them.
“Kihyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
“Keuheugh!”
Thankfully, I lost my temper and came running.
The joke ends here.
I lowered my stance and watched them.
On the left is the guy with the knife. Just bare hands on the right.
Who should I aim for first?
How can I beat the damage to a minimum?
In the blink of an eye, many thoughts came and went.
“receive!”
“Keruk?”
My pick was quick.
I threw the statue at the guy with the knife.
This is what they want.
The first goblin killed by me also chose the statue rather than fleeing.
and that guy too.
“Nice catch.”
– Poogeuk!
I was given a half-reflective flying statue.
Two hands sealed.
I thrust the dagger through his neck.
Push shush!
Blood spurts. It looks like it punctured an artery.
Just in case, I grabbed the hand holding the knife and twisted it.
– Pudeuk!
Could it be because of fatal injuries?
Unlike struggling, his strength was weak and his wrists were easily broken.
[Goblin Annihilation (3/4)]
“This is originally mine.”
I looked at the notification window while picking up the fallen knife and statue.
Now there is only one left.
“Ki Kiruk.”
He hesitates and steps backwards.
The shaking of the pupil is the appearance of an internal conflict.
I want the statue, but I feel like I’m going to die if I try to take it.
I am merciful.
That’s why I want to give a solution to the troubled goblins.
“Don’t go.”
As if he wasn’t interested in him, he wore a dagger around his waist and waved his hand.
Didn’t even look at it.
That way he’ll give you his back easily.
“Kiruluk!”
Footsteps receding.
Again, he turns around and runs away.
I picked up the knife I had just retrieved.
It’s a knife I use for miscellaneous purposes, but the center of gravity is slightly forward.
– Whiririk! Fuk!
“Khihehehehehehe!”
Sometimes it is used for injecting.
As a porter, there are times when life is at stake due to trifles.
You’ll need to carry a few of these cute items with you if you’re going to survive the damn dungeon.
“I said go, but I didn’t say I wouldn’t catch you.”
I dropped to the floor and approached the creeping goblin.
It’s strange.
Why would you be relieved to put a dagger when you have a knife?
Even if you don’t have a knife.
-Chakang
It takes less than a second to pull it out like this.
He shrugged his shoulders once and cut off the breath of the fallen goblin.
[Goblin Annihilation (4/4)]
A notification pops up as if you’ve been waiting for it.
Is this the end of the quest?
then what’s left
[Blessings on those who walk the path of adventure from the beginning!]
[Lunatis’ arrangements are released!]
It’s a reward.
