Chapter 68: Trap (1)

Chapter 68: Trap (1)

The sharp rapier found its mark with precision, piercing the throat of the lumbering orc.

In motion, they were elusive prey, but an orc, stripped of limbs and hobbling, made for an easy target. Min Juri couldnt help but admire the efficiency of a high-level player. I never knew hunting could be this straightforward, she mused, her gentle voice break through the eerie silence of the battlefield littered with lifeless bodies.

Had an orc witnessed this, it might have choked on disbelief, quite literally. New novel chapters are published on

Ryu Min inquired, How many have we dispatched thus far?

52 in just 30 minutes, came the reply from Minjuri, her voice brimming with pride. Thats impressively fast, isnt it?

Ryu Min chose not to respond, for by his own standards, it was merely efficient, not exceptional. After all, he used to take down a staggering 300 in an houra feat that had now become second nature.

Yet, the time spent wandering was too long, he contemplated. The monster population in these fields is far from abundant.

The act of killing them was almost effortless. The true challenge lay in the hunt itself.

But its a risky proposition to wander too far, especially with Minjuri by my side, he mused.

Imagine being suddenly encircled by 50 of them. Alone, it might be manageable, but with Minjuri in tow, complete protection was not assured.

It seems I must head towards the Orc Shaman. That way, I can expedite the process of locating orcs.

The Orc Shaman possessed the ability to summon his brethren. By employing this resource, Ryu Min could bypass the laborious task of tracking down individual orcs.

Besides, the path to the shamans lair aligns with our current trajectory. If we stick to the plan, we should make good progress.

They could dispatch a few orcs along the way, while approaching the bosss domain.

Min Juri smiled brightly, not even knowing that they were heading toward a boss.

At this pace, we could conceivably tally up 300 within 3 hours.

3 hours is too lengthy. Lets aim for under 1 hour.

Perplexed, Minjuri queried, Huh? Just 1 hour?

Concerned that she might have misheard, she sought clarification, receiving the same response.

I intend to complete the quest in less than an hour.

Really? How?

By making use of the Orc Shaman.

Minjuri, baffled, inquired, Whats that?

Indeed. As a boss, he possesses a measure of intelligence. These seemingly innocuous huts here are just disguises, designed to lure players in. In reality, this village harbors none but the Orc Shaman.

Aha No wonder it was eerily silent.

In the end, this entire village is a trap, meticulously set to ensnare and dispatch players.

So, have we fallen into the trap?

Ryu Min nodded affirmatively.

At least in the eyes of the Orc Shaman.

Do you have a plan? Min Juri inquired.

Yes, we can turn his trap against him.

If its a trap

The trap is simple. Inexperienced players entering the house will trigger trap points. At that moment, the waiting Orc Shaman summons orcs to overwhelm them. About 10 to 20 orcs are summoned, and when surrounded, theres no escape.

Ryu Min, of course, felt confident he could handle any number of orcs.

But our goal now isnt to kill them; its to keep them barely alive

But if they all come out simultaneously, it could get troublesome.

Thats true. But theres a solution.

Ryu Min detailed his plan for luring out the orcs.

Min Juris eyes widened as she listened.

So, it really can be that simple?

Yes.

Do you think the Orc Shaman will fall for it?

Fear not; the plan has already been tested.

With doubt in her eyes, Min Juri seemed to have made up her mind and nodded.

Ill take care of the first part of the plan.
