Chapter 115: Land of the Dead (3)
[The stats of all monsters in the land of the dead are reduced by 1%.]
With this, 200 dead in the forest of the dead were killed.
The dead here did not die well because of their high vitality, but thanks to Jun-woo's high attack power and Jang Hana's buff, they could catch the dead quickly.
[Magical power increases by 67 for 30 minutes due to divine energy, and additional damage is applied to dark properties.]
[Defense is increased by 67 for 30 minutes by sacred protection, and you take 17 less damage from dark attributes.]
[Movement speed is increased by 34 for 30 minutes by holy wings.]
The parts a priest could apply a buff to were magic power, attack power, and defense and movement speed.
In the case of Jang Hana, the figure was very high, but the additional damage and damage reduction for the dark attribute played a role.
The reason why Jang Hana was able to come here was thanks to this particular effect.
Song Wei Guang, known as the guardian knight, showed great tanking power, and Heather, the paladin, offered high handling and tanking ability with a mace filled with light.
Although swordsman Ikegami lacked the ablest among them, he showed pretty good movements regarding combat sense.
Running lightly searching for the dead, Ikegami spoke to Heather in slightly awkward English.
"There… Sr. Heather, I apologize for being rude earlier."
"Oh, it's fine. Don't worry. Our fault for not being aware of it is huge."
"Thank you for saying that. But in the end, Maro's action was to put Sr. Lewis and Jang Hana in, so why did that happen?"
"I do not know… …."
After all the melees entered, the other three entered, and they kissed.
However, Maro did not go in and showed a movement to put Jun-woo and Han-a Jang on either side.
"If you want the dungeon gate to run wild, Sr. Lewis shouldn't come in, so I wonder why they pushed Sr. Lewis."
Jun-woo was also a little puzzled by Ikegami's words.
Ikegami asked.
"Are you related to Dark Star? Maro."
"No…, it will never be."
"Sr. Lewis, don't you have anything to point out?"
"Not at all."
"Is there even a quest for legendary-grade death… …. Anyway, thank you. Lewis and Heather, thank you for coming in."
Jang Hana also expressed her gratitude with a touching face.
"I am very grateful too."
"Everyone, let's get out of here safely, just like now, Jang Hana."
"Yeah! Sr. Ikegami."
When the dead appeared, Jun-woo's six guided missiles and three self-destructive wolf robots ran in all directions.
Pop!
The black wolf jumped and exploded toward the staggering dead after being hit by a missile.
Boom!
The dead man was caught in the explosion and flew behind him.
Each of them marked one by one and caught it.

They wandered through the forest and caught five hundred, and Song Wei Guang looked at the map and said:
"I don't think there are 100 more in this forest."
The forest was on the small side, and Song Wei Guang moved while looking at the map to check their location.
Everyone felt like they were dubious, and Jun-woo was as well.
Because there were quite a few of the dead in the forest.
If there were not 100 animals, there was no reason to be here due to time constraints.
The dead were good with gold and other items, but it was crazy to waste time on those things.
"Let's go to the nearby skull cave."
Song Wei Guang was trying to move to the dungeon area on the map.
"Come this way."
The direction had to go across the forest, but he had to fight the dead on the way, so Song Wei Guang ran back the whole way and decided to go back.
It was an action to reduce time and prevent unnecessary mana consumption.
On the way out of the forest, zombies rushed in.
"As before, I would like to ask you for a way. Lewis."
"All right."
The blue light on Jun-woo's battle suit came on, and the wealthy Jun-woo outrun the party members.
Jun-woo, who gathered the zombies in one place while avoiding the attack of jumping zombies while flying, threw a self-destruct robot.
Boom!
Like a carpet bombing, black boxes and guided missiles fell where Jun-woo flew.
Boom!
And it was the running party members who finished off the wounded zombies.
After catching zombies easier than the dead, Jun-woo and his party rushed.
A vast mountain appeared, and Jun-woo took out the map from the air and enlarged the map.
After confirming the location of the skull cave, Jun-woo flew to the cliff.
The skull cave at the bottom of the cliff, the entrance to the skull cave, was in the shape of a massive skull with its mouth wide open.
Jun-woo, who arrived at the entrance, summoned 5 cannonball robots and waited for the party to arrive.
There was nothing to do while waiting, so Jun-woo shot the mana cannon at the cliff to the right of the entrance.
Thud!
Various skills flew and collided, and the cannonball robot fired shells.
Poof!
As the smoke rose and the soil on the cliff fell slightly, the party approached.
Ikegami asked with a puzzled face.
"What are you doing… Are you?"
"I just tried it because it was a broken terrain."
"Ah…, Yeah."
In the last dungeon gate, he broke through the wall and got the skill book, so he was a Jun-woo who died in a specific place from time to time.
Song Wei Guang took the lead and spoke.
"I will go in."
Song Wei Guang and others entered the 3 m-long skulls.
No torches were inside, and no unique walls emitted light, so a magic lamp was needed to illuminate the field of vision.
Ikegami said while looking at the magic light that moved at will.
"I love magic lights, but why don't you make more flashlights? Lewis."
"Let's make it slow."
"I wish it worked a little better. In fact, it is indeed difficult for people with high vitality like us to press and wait."
"Yes, I will refer."
Ikegami put in a flashlight and drew a faint smile.
"I heard that you were buying various materials. Maybe that's why Yokichi, like a Japanese raccoon dog, bought a lot of ingredients simultaneously."
"You mean the target, Sr. Yokichi."
"There will be nothing missing from that inspiration. I've been a material dealer for 40 years, so how badly did I hit the materials… …."
As Ikegami started chatting, the skeletons of small stature in the cave appeared.
It was a tiny skeleton about 100 cm tall.
The number of running skeletons gradually increased.
His eyes glowed red, and he was holding a two-handed ax half the size of his torso, and a half was holding a short dagger.
"Aww!"
Skeletons approached through a narrow cave with a width of 4m and a wall and attempted to attack.
Thud!
The skeleton that fell out rushed without missing the ax.
On the crowded battlefield, Jun-woo could not even detonate the self-destruct robot, and it was difficult for the cannonball robot to hit a fast-moving nearby target.
Cling clang!
Song Wei Guang's shield flashed, but the skeletons ignored it and dug in, grabbing their opponents and attacking.
"Aww!"
While making a strange scream.
Squash!
The ax fell down on Jun-woo's shoulder, and Jun-woo pulled him back through the defensive robot.
Thud!
The rolling skeleton fought a battle with the defensive robot, and Jun-woo was hit by many attacks from the attacking structures.
Squash!
The shoulder was cut by the dagger, and a green afterimage of poison came out.
When Jang Hana used Purification, the eyes of the tiny skeletons all turned to Jang Hana.
"Use the shield."
At Jun-woo's words, Jang Hana hurriedly opened the shield, and Jun-woo created three self-destructive robots around Jang Han-a.
"Blow it."
Ikegami stepped back, and Song Wei Guang and Heather grabbed the shield.
As the skeletons rushed in, the bomb exploded.
Boom!
A powerful bomb exploded inside the narrow cave, cracking the bones of the skeletons and bouncing to the floor.
At the same time, Jang Hana's shield also broke and crashed into the wall.
"Ouch… …."
Smash!
One by one, the skeletons were being cleaned up, and the last remaining skeleton was smashed by Heather's mace.
Smash!
Jang Hana hastily attempted to purify Song Wei Guang, who was poisoned.
Ikegami asked Jang Hana with a tanned face.
"It's, okay?"
"Yeah! It's nothing."
"Don't use Heal and Jeonghwa until the situation is settled. It seems to be a frenzied charge at beings using divine power."
"Yes, I will!"
Song Wei Guang approached Jang Hana.
"I want you to stay away from us. Join us when the battle is over. The poison can be released after that."
Zombies, dead, and skeletons all had poison-related attacks.
Zombies had their nails poisoned, and the dead and skeletons had their swords poisoned.
A potent poison that reduces health by 30 per second for 30 seconds, it was necessary to release it quickly, but there was a risk of running out of mana for a long time.
Jun-woo said as he stepped forward.
"I will go in first. If there is one explosion, please come in."
"Are you okay?"
"Don't worry. Then I will go in."
"I'll catch up right away."
It would cause damage to allies to cause a narrow space explosion.
Because of that, Jun-woo led only the defense robot and ran inside alone.
20 waiting skeletons rushed towards Jun-woo and the defensive robot.
Jun-woo fired mana cannons and guided missiles, waiting for them to approach.
Axes were smashed into his body, daggers were stabbed in his thighs, and poison was generated.
Three black boxes formed around Jun-woo and burst as if surrounded by a swarm of bees.
Boom!!
Skeletons were scattered all over the place and hit the wall, and Jun-woo changed positions, stepped back, and fired mana cannons.
Thud!
The cannonball robots aided in the attack, and the defense robots pulled the skeleton that rushed at Jun-woo to him.
As the rest of the skeletons rushed in, the party rushed to help Jun-woo.
Smash!
When all the skeletons were cleaned up, poisoned Ikegami ran backward, and Jang Hana ran to purify poisoned Ikegami.
Jun-woo was poisoned but went inside immediately.
There was no particular reason to cure the poison because the recovery exceeded the level of the poison.
Heather looked worried as he saw Jun-woo entering the cave.
"Aren't you overdoing it… …."
"I think it will be fine."
Ikegami, who returned to his seat, interrupted and spoke.
"It seems that he went without treatment, which means his recovery is great… …. It's amazing in many ways, to the point where I wonder if it's the right production job."
As everyone was in agreement, a loud explosion was heard from inside.
Boom!!
All at once, they accelerated and ran.
In that way, we continued digging into the cave for over two hours.
Skeletons constantly rushed and died countless times.
Smash!
After cleaning up, Jun-woo ran into the cave, and as he entered the curve, he could see the end of the wall.
At the end of the wall was a chest of bones with books in it.
Jun-woo summoned a self-destruct wolf from the back, blew it up, and looked at the cabinet.
There were five books in the closet.
He pulled out the first book.
[Lv.5 Butte's Swordsmanship]

-Description: You can learn up to 2 skill books with Butte regardless of the skill book's limit. Butte's skill disappears when she leaves the Land of the Dead.
When the people who ran to see the cabinet, they approached with slightly startled eyes.
Ikegami asked.
"Is this a skill book?"
"Yes, everyone, please check the effect once."
Jun-woo handed the skill book he was holding to Ikegami.
When Ikegami received the skill book, he burst out in short admiration.
"Wow, it works. It's level 5, but take a look, Song Wei Guang."
Because the only people who wielded the sword were himself and Song Wei Guang, Song Wei Guang looked at the skill book and handed it to Ikegami.
"Learn."
Ikegami answered with a smile.
"I will wield it hard."
There were 5 skill books, and each skill was compared and distributed to those in need.
Because it was a sword-related skill, Ikegami learned two, and Heather and Song Wei Guang shared one.
Jang Hana had no share, and Jun-woo learned a movement skill.

Maro dug out the ground.
Thud-
When he felt the shovel hit something strongly, Maro dug up the area he had just touched with his hands.
A purple coffin appeared, and Maro removed the dirt with his wide eyes and slowly opened the coffin.
Push~
A black air stream flowed out of the coffin.
At that moment, the skull inside the coffin kicked, and the coffin lid flew away.
The purple skull stood up and looked at Maro.
Maro said with trembling eyes.
"Butt… …."
Something from the coffin began to stick to the body of the purple skull, and it became the face of a young man.
Butte's finished appearance was a sharp-looking man who appeared to be in his late 20s.
"It's your guy, the human sent by your father."
"That, yes… It is an honor to have you, Butte."
Butte stood up from the coffin and said while wearing an item from the item window.
"It's only a few items, so the conditions are harsh."
A phrase appeared in Maro's eyes.
[The stats of all monsters in the land of the dead are reduced by 1%.]
Butte's eyes also saw the text.
[Your stats have been reduced by 1%.]
Butte's molars were crushed.
"Where are these bugs now?"
"It is the forest of the dead. But with my current body… …."
"Okay, what about the map?"
"Here it is."
It was Maro who opened up a black map and showed it.
Butte put his finger where the sword and shield were drawn.
"I take my items first."
"Yes, Butte."
The two hurriedly ran to the place called the Tomb of the Dead.
