Chapter 114: Land of the Dead (2)
After walking for a while, he saw a red band on the ground.
The band was drawn in an endless oval on both sides as if it was made of a circle.
"This is the starting line."
If you cross the line, the quest and time required by the dungeon gate will come out.
"Let's move on."
The Song Wei Guang crossed the line first.
"Everyone, come over."
Everyone crossed the line, and when Jun-woo crossed the line, a phrase appeared.
[Defeat 3 bosses within 249 hours and 56 minutes.]
[If not defeated, all stats of the person who entered will decrease by 10%, and all monsters in ‘Land of the Dead' will be promoted and exit the portal.]
[You will be given a map of ‘Land of the Dead.]
Everyone pulled out a map and looked at it.
A map is given as an item. The topography of this place and where he was located were marked with dots.
Jun-woo was in the center of the map, and there was a surname with his name on three sides.
Ikegami said, inserting a map.
"It means you must catch the boss within the time limit. Let's hurry."
People looked at the map a little more.
There were 3 dungeons and 3 areas with names other than the castle.
Perhaps the boss felt like he was in a castle, but he wondered why the area had a dungeon and a name.
Song Wei Guang said, inserting a map.
"Let's start with the nearest forest."
Jun-woo asked.
"What do you think there will be in the forest?"
"It's an artifact."
Artifacts were special items within the dungeon gate.
Some bosses deal additional damage to the boss, take less damage, or can even inflict damage only with artifacts obtained from within the dungeon gate.
To deal with the boss quickly, getting the unique items in the dungeon gate was the way to do it, so Song Wei Guang headed to the forest with a name.
All gave according to their wishes without complaint, and they went to the forest of the dead.
Because walking was a luxury, they ran, and as they ran, zombies appeared every time, stopping them from running.
Most of the corpses, whose flesh melted to the point where the bones were visible, were fighter-type zombies.
In the blink of an eye, he approached and swung his fist or scratched the person with his long, purple-tinted nails.
And if it was scratched by that nail, there was a certain probability that it was poisoned.
[The poison reduces health by 30 per second for 30 seconds.]
It was a potent poison.
In Jang Hana's eyes, there was a small purple light in the scratched area.
When she saw it, Jang Hana reached out and used her purification skill.
Drops of light fell on Ikegami's body.
[Poison disappears by purification.]
Ikegami cut the zombie's neck with a heavy sword like a Japanese sword and looked at Jun-woo floating in the sky.
‘It's strange… ….'
When Jun-woo was nearby, the zombies did not use about two skills.
However, as Jun-woo rose and the distance increased, the zombies used the skill.
The faster footwork, or the black mana contained in the scratched fingers.
They were zombies using skills not used when Jun-woo was by his side.
‘It's a wide area skill blockade skill… …. The distance is about 3, 40m.'
Boom!
When the situation calmed down, Jun-woo fell down.
Ikegami looked at Jun-woo's battle suit and spoke.
"Do you have a wide-area skill suppression skill?"
"Yeah."
"How is the street? I ask because it would be good to know."
"The distance is not that long. It's about 30m, so I think it would be better for the activity if you don't pay much attention to it."
"30m…, that's a good skill."
Jun-woo said to Song Wei Guang.
"On the way, I will take the lead and inflict some damage."
"Please."
The light came on in Jun-woo's battle suit, and he flew past it at high speed.
When the zombies saw Jun-woo, they rushed to the sky like an animal that found prey and jumped into the atmosphere.
Jun-woo flew higher and faster and threw the self-destructing robot toward the ground.
Zombies on the floor looked up blankly and scattered like cockroaches in danger as they approached.
Boom!
The fleeing zombies were caught in the explosion and fell, and a defensive robot fell on them and trampled them.
After descending to a certain extent, the zombies jumped again towards Jun-woo, and Jun-woo flew forward leisurely and fired mana cannons and guided missiles.
It was a bonus to drop the cannonball robot on the floor occasionally.
In general, the cannonball robot was shattered because the zombies would kick a soccer kick when Jun-woo came to mind.
Boom!
After taking some damage, the zombies ran towards Song Wei Guang, and the group and the zombies were quickly cleaned up, and Song Wei Guang and his party moved forward.
Water drops of light fell on Song Wei Guang and Ikegami's heads.
As Jang Hana took out a top-notch mana potion and took a sip, Heather asked with a worried face.
"Mana, are you okay?"
"It's okay!"
Heather was a paladin, and he was fortunate to be able to use Heal and Purify on himself, but the other two had to be released.
Otherwise, he had to drink an antidote, but since the potion was to induce fullness, he would not be able to drink the potion to replenish his stamina if he drank it.
Song Wei Guang looked at Jang Hana and slowed down.
"Until there is a request, there is no need for everyone to use heels. Please clean up."
"Yeah! Leave it to me."
Ikegami chimed in.
"And, don't cleanse too quickly. There are zombies with purple nails among the zombies, and if you catch them, you should purify them.
"Yeah! I will keep that in mind."
"It can't be delayed, so take good care of your mana."
"Yeah! Sr. Ikegami."
Boom!
The sound of explosions was constantly coming out from the front as if there was a war.
Ikegami smiled as she looked at Jun-woo flashing in the distance.
‘I wondered how he survived being attacked by the Dark Star, but if you hit it while flying like that, it will be difficult to chase you… ….'
Zombies with reduced stamina approached, and the three collided with them. And Jang Hana watched it silently from behind.
As the zombie rushed to Jang Hana, Ikegami immediately approached and drew a zombie.
"Don't try to run. It interferes with mana recovery."
"Yeah!"
When Song Wei Guang's shield flashed, all the zombies nearby rushed at Song Wei Guang.
Song Wei Guang was surrounded by zombies and was punched and kicked, but in the midst of it, he firmly handled them one by one.
Swing
There was no tremendous active skill like a tanker, but Song Wei Guang showed great tanking power through his passive skills.
Jang Hana had her eyes wide open, contemplating when to give her a heel.
‘Scratches on the skin… ….'
He was thinking of doing tiptoeing if his skin was torn.
A mace filled with Heather's light fell on the zombie's head, and Ikegami instantly cut the throats of the three zombies.
When the situation was settled, Jang Hana asked a little.
"Hey over there… …."
"It's okay. If you see blood, use it for 5 seconds."
"Yeah… …."
Then Ikegami pulled out a flashlight from the item window.
[Recovery Flashlight]

Click
When the switch was pressed, a light was emitted from the flashlight.
"If you need it, write this down. It was made by that gentleman, and it's hard to find because it doesn't sell."
Click
When the switch turned off, Ikegami handed it to Jang Hana.
"Shoot if you need it in moderation, and the distance is up to 2m."
"Yes, I will."
As soon as she received it, Jang Hana shot a flashlight toward Song Wei Guang's back.
"Let's go… …."
Song Wei Guang ran in the light of a flashlight.
After catching countless zombies and running for about an hour, a gloomy land with a pale green light that seemed to change boundaries appeared in front of me.
Jun-woo was standing before him, waiting for his companions to come.
Song Wei Guang stood next to Jun-woo and looked inside.
"It seems the monster has become a little stronger and has changed."
"I will go back in. Follow me slowly."
"All right."
Jun-woo advanced five cannonball robots and crossed the border with three defensive robots.
At that moment, a message appeared.
[Quest has occurred.]
[Forest of the Dead] [Share][Repeat]
-Content: There are many mighty dead in the land of the dead. You will need to weaken their power.
-How to: Catch 100 dead. [0/100]
-Reward: [The stats of all monsters in the Land of the Dead are reduced by 1%.]
It was a shared and repeated quest.
The reward would be applied to a shared quest for everyone, whoever killed 100 dead.
It was a quest that seemed repeated several times to perform the dungeon gate smoothly.
As he ran, he began to see gray-colored humans.
A magic-type dead man wearing a robe and holding a staff shot magic at the defense robot, and the dead men with swords and spears rushed at them.
The number of monsters was reduced by about five times compared to the time of the zombies, but the energy of each one was intense.
As Jun-woo flew up, magic was fired, and the dead archer drew his bow.
Tung!
Dodging arrows, Jun-woo fired a self-destructive robot and fired a guided missile.
The wizard blocked it with a shield, reacted and moved quickly, and fired a fireball at Jun-woo.
Jun-woo's body was busy flying around by fire and arrows, and the defense robots were being pierced by spears one by one and shattered.
When Jun-woo retreated slightly, Song Wei Guang and his party arrived and joined the battle.
After Song Wei Guang tanked, Jun-woo could comfortably shoot mana cannons in the air.
Thud!
As the wizard's chest was pierced, it fell backward.
Ikegami's sword ripped through the archer's torso, and Heather's mace crushed the shield-bearing dead man's head.
Puck!
There weren't many monsters enough for Mole to hunt, and Jun-woo came down to the ground and said,
"It would be better if we go here together."
"You do that. We will take the lead."
Song Wei Guang ran forward confidently, and Jun-woo led the cannonball robot to follow.
The defensive robots were marked one by one, and Song Wei Guang scored two, so the attackers could comfortably aim and attack from behind.
Six or eight of them were taken out of the dead.
When the cannonball robot comfortably put a deal, the speed of catching monsters was definitely faster.
And when we caught 100, the quest was completed once.
[100/100]
[The stats of all monsters in the land of the dead are reduced by 1%.]
* * *
[The stats of all monsters in the land of the dead are reduced by 1%.]
The phrase appeared even before Maro's eyes.
"Is it an artifact… …."
Maro took out a black map and looked at it.
On the map, there was a place where the tomb was marked, different from the map that Jun-woo's party had.
Maro ran to it quickly.
On the way, for some reason, the zombies didn't even look at Maro and didn't even attack.
Maro, who looked at the map moistened with purple, took out his shovel and started digging.
In the darkness, Maro digs down the ground with his face wet with madness, revealing his white teeth.
