I Became the Weakest Summoned of the Genius Summoner

434 – Temple of Light

The reward obtained after overcoming the challenge thrown by Arena.

A secret temple located within an exclusive dungeon managed by the Ilseom Guild.

This is a temple that will fill me with the energy of the ultimate, so in itself it is a dangerous place for me.

‘It’s a place you have to visit at least once anyway. And it could be Arena’s trap, so it would be good to find out before going with her children.

It’s a place where you can get unexpected harvests if you take her colleagues, so it’s a place I’ve been thinking of checking out on my own someday.

‘It’s better.’

I flew straight to where the Ilsom Guild was.

Although it wasn’t far from home, I felt somehow left alone in this world, so I called out ‘Gori’ and flew away with him.

“Beep!”

“Tick, tick, tick.”

Kori just keeps rubbing her cheek against me, as if she just likes looking at me.

Looking at the map Ilseom gave me the other day, I got off at an appropriate location, and soon after moving, I found three hunters who appeared to be Ilseom guild members.

They were having a bragging contest in front of the light red gate about how great they were last night.

I returned the ring to its original state for a moment and activated the ability.

[Stealth]

[Fairytale of the Phantom of the Dark]

I, separated from the world, leisurely passed them by and soon entered another world through the gate.

Woowoowooung──

It was an unsettling gate with a red glow, but it didn’t feel much different from any other dungeon.

‘Wow─ the air is so heavy.’

Entering the dense forest, my eyes were first caught by the sight of trees towering high in the sky and flowers as big as houses in bloom.

‘Everything is so big. It’s smaller than the tree in Wiesel’s dungeon, but it feels much more full of life.’

It felt like I had entered a primeval forest with extremely high oxygen concentration, and I felt a little dizzy as it detected hundreds of large and small plants and animals that the system did not classify as monsters.

And thanks to the map given by Ilseom, a map of the area was drawn in my head, and soon a golden dot began blinking perhaps a little distance away.

‘I’m not sure about the distance. It seems close. It seems like it’s really far away.’

First, I ran slowly and had time to adapt to the environment.

‘The body is definitely heavy. I feel like a sponge wet with water.’

It wasn’t just a feeling.

– You have entered the ‘Origin of the Parasitic Kinship’ dungeon.

– This is the period when the red moon rises. All abilities decrease by 20%.

‘What?! Crazy? What kind of restrictions are there?’

I saw that the gate was a little red, but I was relieved to hear that the other world people had disappeared. I was a little confused because I didn’t know about the limitations of such a huge dungeon.

‘Did Ilseom hide information? It could be possible, but why?’

When I looked at the sky, I saw two huge red moons rising at a certain distance from each other, large enough to fill my entire field of vision.

‘I don’t know, let’s go first. ‘Why don’t you know that I came here to die?’

I thought about flying, but I decided to run to also search for preliminary information.

But why are there so many things that stick persistently even though they haven’t moved very far?

Up! Hot!

‘Ah-oh! These damn things!’

Because the carnivorous plants, whose bodies were almost the size of a light car, kept attacking me, I had to switch from [Combat Type] With lightning armor to [Combat Type] With fire armor to run.

– Kiyaa!!

Carnivorous plants that burn brightly just by brushing against my body.

‘Even if all it does is devour it, if it’s that big, shouldn’t it be treated as a monster?’

It was disappointing that [Kleptomania] Could not be activated even though I kept killing huge monsters. Even if it is activated, I wonder if there will be anything to steal.

However, after killing the particularly large one of them, I felt a sweet scent, so I cut open the plump stem of the plant that had burned to death.

Wow-

‘Wow?! What is all this?’

When I cut the stem, several buckets of sticky water poured out.

– You have obtained the honey of Typhon Flower!

‘Oh···? Is it honey?’

First, I threw it into sub-space with its stem and hurriedly set out on the road.

I’m interested in the ecosystem of this world, but it’s not urgent right now.

While running towards the Temple of Light, all kinds of insects and plants attacked me.

It was meaningless to me as a skeleton, but I didn’t know if my colleagues who would come here would be okay with it either.

‘There are some poisonous ones. There may also be some that carry unknown diseases. Even considering Eunyoung’s abilities, it might be more difficult than you think, right?’

Moreover, the three types of monsters that Ilseom had announced did not appear.

‘It’s clear that Blood Mosquito or those bastards are the bosses here. Why aren’t they coming?’

Clearly, there were a number of horrible-looking mosquitoes in my detection range, and it was questionable how exactly they could keep their distance from me.

Then, at some point, I came to a realization.

‘Ah… I have no blood.’

It is known that mosquitoes are sensitive to things such as carbon dioxide exhaled through sweat or breathing, and the smell of perfume.

I don’t fit into all of those things, and I definitely don’t have any taste.

If these guys are similar to those in our world, then there is no reason to approach the flaming skeleton in [Combat Type].

‘I’ll go to the temple first and deal with you later.’

Purgejik─

I spent several hours running, creating a small path with the energy of lightning.

‘Oh really! Map This is weird! Why is it so far?’

It seems like we’ve been running for about an hour, but we’re still only halfway through.

‘More and stronger guys are starting to appear. Is that scarab-like thing called ‘Minescarabe’?’

It is said to fire bombs from its genitals, and when I actually sensed it, it seemed unusual to have a thick outer shell.

And as I went further into the center, I saw a caterpillar-type monster with its body covered in what looked like really expensive jewels.

That caterpillar is called ‘Prizcana’, and although it cannot be seen now, it is a monster that was said to be the main target of people from another world.

Although it appears to have the lowest combat power, the level set by Ilseom is the highest among the monsters in this dungeon.

Even if I were to attack him as is, my defense would be pierced and I would suffer damage.

I kept a close eye on their movements, worked harder, and finally arrived at the place indicated on the map.

‘Um… This is the right place. There’s nothing.’

Since there was not a single blade of grass growing in this dense forest, it was clear that there was a temple hidden here.

I narrowed the wavelength of my senses as much as possible and slowly flew in a floating state, preparing for any possible attack.

Then a message came to mind.

– Would you like to enter the Temple of Light in ‘Arena’?

‘······ Enter.’

At the same time, the body was once again transferred to another space.

*

Today was already the third metastasis.

‘At this point, the country is feeling a bit upset.’

I thought I was quite familiar with moving through space through the summoning gate, but thanks to Arena, I was grateful to once again feel a dirty feeling that I didn’t have to know about. You’re like a damn evil god.

‘Anyway, this place has an atmosphere I shouldn’t be in.’

It was not a huge structure that was difficult to handle, but it was an artistic space with complex patterns and unknown letters appropriately arranged.

An auspicious place where even the dust that settles on the floor seems to be filled with sacred energy.

On both sides, there are many statues of extremely beautiful goddesses carved into silver structures. Even though I knew that the woman was Arena, I did my best to ignore it.

As I took a step into the long passage with no end in sight, the message I was concerned about came to mind.

– The protection of the goddess who protects light and loves justice repels evil spirits!

– All of the undead’s abilities drop to less than half!

Kuung-!

With the message, I unconsciously placed my hand on the floor.

‘Ugh – you bitch! ‘I almost fell to my knees!’

It was more than just a sharp decline in my abilities, I felt pressure as if something was trying to give in to me.

‘It’s clear that Arena called this to tease me.’

I was so sure that I sharpened my teeth.

‘It’s fortunate that the restrictions don’t overlap.’

If the -20% stat drop I received just before had been added up to 50%, it would have been almost like death, but it was fortunate.

‘I feel something…’

The conviction that Areina had called me to trouble me did not last long.

After passing through the brilliant entrance, the passage begins to gradually become darker.

The bones of countless people who died leaning against the wall remained in place.

‘What happened?’

I approached what I thought were human bones and examined them, but found no significant injuries.

‘I can’t remember any particular information.’

Tuk-

Pasasak-

Bones that weather away like dust at the slightest touch.

‘This can’t even be used as bomb material.’

After examining dozens of human bones, we discovered one common feature.

‘It wasn’t like there was no trauma. It’s faint, but there’s still a scar on my cervical spine.’

There were traces of the bone being slightly chipped by something very sharp.

‘This is…’

And from beyond the passage, a mysterious crunching sound spread all around.

‘My senses have been reduced to less than half, but I can still sense up to 4km away… I can’t believe I can already hear this much sound? How many?’

Disgusting creatures running towards you while frivolously waving their long snouts.

At that time, a small quest appeared in my mind.

– Defeat the ‘Blood Mosquito variant’ that dominates the ‘Temple of Polluted Light’ and take revenge on behalf of the Priests of Light who died unjustly!

It was a quest that seemed somehow filled with self-interest.

Even the compensation was not clearly presented.

‘I called you for this purpose. Rather than being a reward for winning a match, it seems like only the arena benefits!’

If the polluted Temple of Light is cleaned, the power of ‘Arena’ will revive, even if only slightly, right?

I didn’t want to work for an unlucky god, but I was in a position where I had to do whatever it took to get compensation, so I immediately got into a fighting stance.

‘My current abilities have dropped to the level I had when I was level 60. The grades of Blood Mosquito range from C to B. And if you say it’s a mutant… It’s definitely a class A monster.’

I think it will be a difficult match.

Of course, I came here to die, but I have no intention of dying easily.

Chachachacha- Chacha-

‘Ugh…’

Dozens of things are crawling along the ceiling of the passage.

Long snout, huge eyes that take up half of the head.

The small thorns that sprouted up all over the body had a great talent of giving goosebumps just by looking at them.

Overall, it was very similar to a mosquito, but the difference was that its arms and legs were very sturdy like an oak.

‘No matter how low my abilities are, I can’t be easily defeated by bugs!’

[Skull Bomb]

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!!

The start of the battle was announced with a skull bomb made while flying through the sky.

Perhaps because they had low intelligence, they did not react immediately to my attack and were trying to surround me somehow.

[Manhwanpo]

‘Come at me, you dirty mosquitoes!’

Chachachachachacha-

Since the Blood Mosquito was constantly coming, it was only natural to choose [Manhwapo], A skill specialized for one-on-many combat.

These guys keep sticking their snouts at me when I’m in an invincible state.

“·······?!”

It was comical to see the mosquito’s blood-sucking proboscis twisted around in confusion as it was blocked by [Invincibility].

Tens of seconds later, thousands of magical bullets exploded from my body, which had swelled to the size of a house.

Puffpuffpuffpuffpuffpuffpuffpuffpuffpuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuffuff!

– ‘Blood Mosquito’ has been defeated!

– ‘Blood Mosquito’ has been defeated!

– ‘Blood Mosquito’ has been defeated!

.

.

.

It consumed 600 magic attribute to annihilate the disgusting mosquitoes that were rushing around the area.

– I discovered a hidden quest linked to the trait [Kleptomaniac]!

‘Huh? What is this again?’

– Obtain 500 tokens of ‘Blood Mosquito’ and steal its ‘racial characteristics’!

‘Racial characteristics are rewards?!’

What he couldn’t steal even with his [Kleptomaniac] Ability was a racial trait, and this time he would give it as a reward.

Hidden quests like this are always welcome. But these mosquitoes don’t even have any skills?

It seems to be a one-tool monster that only increases its physical abilities by sucking blood.

Since you can’t steal traits or skills, isn’t it an attempt to compensate by giving a quest?
