Chapter 32: First Wave (2)
The sight before him was unexpected, but Jo Joong-sik remained unfazed in his thoughts.
Hes going wild for now, but eventually, hell exhaust himself and copse.
However, there was no sign of weariness in ck Scythes relentless onught.
On the contrary, his speed increased with each passing moment, tearing the goblins apart with ease.
Startled by this sight, Jo Joong-siks eyes widened.
Its not just going hard mode. Hes growing stronger as time goes by.
In a matter of minutes, the area around ck Scythe was already littered with goblin corpses.
In stark contrast, goblins surged into the other entrance like a bursting dam.
With numerous entrances, there was no choice but to let some of them through.
Jo Joong-sik made his way to the window on the opposite side to assess the situation within the vige.
Thousands of goblins shed with an equal number of yers, creating a chaotic scene of entangledbat.
This is pure chaos.
The number of goblins exceeded expectations, prompting the yers to fight desperately for their lives.
Having gained some experience, they skillfully wielded their weapons, ying goblins with ease.
Amidst the bluster of screams and the stench of blood, Jo Joong-sik tightened his grip on his dagger.
Theres no time to waste. I need to get out there quickly and make numbers.
Survival hinged on the number of monsters killed, making it advantageous to eliminate as many as possible.
After choosing the right moment, Jo Joong-sik ventured outside, swiftly dispatching a passing goblin with a precise stab.
Keek! Keiik!
Several goblins witnessed the scene and charged at Jo Joong-sik.
Come on, you experience-granting fuckers.
For Jo Joong-sik, dealing with a few goblins posed no difficulty.
Thanks to the Insight Rune, he could predict their movements and dispatch them skillfully.
Thwack! Thwack! Thwack!
With each goblin in, a peculiar sense of exhration coursed through him, knowing that he was robbing them of their lives.
Goblins are nothing more than cannon fodder.
Smirking, Jo Joong-sik suddenly nced towards ck Scythes location.
Swoosh! Swish!
In a single swing, the scythe cleaved through the goblins bodies.
Jo Joong-sik couldnt help but be surprised by the scene.
Can anyone be that powerful at just level 16?
Witnessing ck Scythes battle, a subtle desire forbat stirred within him.
He also felt apetitive spirit, aspiring to surpass ck Scythe.
Perhaps it was the notion that he needed to y more monsters.
Fearlessly, Jo Joong-sik shifted to a safer spot within the vige, where the goblins were preupied with other yers.
Now, while the goblins are focused on others
This was an opportunity to kill more without taking unnecessary risks.
Die! Die!
Keiiek!
Aaah!
Come at me, you fucking goblin!
As Jo Joong-sik advanced further into the heart of the vige, the resounding cries of humans and monsters grew more distinct.
Amidst the chaos, Jo Joong-sik hunted the goblins.
Thwack! Thwack!
He methodically dispatched goblins that passed by or were distracted, maintaining a rxed pace.
This is too easy
Suddenly, a chilling sensation enveloped Jo Joong-sik, prompting him to turn his head.
Stter!
An arrow grazed his cheek.
An arrow?
Jo Joong-siks expression hardened.
Since there were no goblins shooting arrows, it had to be a yer.
Damn bastards!
Ignoring the pain, Jo Joong-sik dashed towards the source of the attack.
Hey!
?
In an instant, Jo Joong-sik closed the distance, catching the yer off guard.
Thwack!
His dagger found its mark in the yers chest.
Die! Die, you bastard!
Inflicting a flurry of stab wounds, Jo Joong-sik pushed the defeated yer away and lifted his head.
At that moment
Swoosh!
Another arrow flew past his thigh, grazing it.
There was a yer holding a bow, readying another arrow.
These fuckers!
Jo Joong-sik retrieved his dagger and charged towards the yer, seething with rage.
Ugh!
The gap between them quickly closed, and as the yer attempted to swing the bow in panic
Thwack!
Jo Joong-siks dagger plunged into the yers chest.
Die! Die, you son of a bitch!
After mercilessly shing his throat with his dagger, Jo Joong-sik pushed the lifeless yer aside, raising his head.
Just then
Fwissh!
A spear passed right beside him, narrowly missing him.
Jo Joong-sik looked in the direction where the spear came from and rushed toward it, just before he could reach him the yer hit him with an arrow.
Whoosh!
Fortunately, this time he could predict the path of the arrow and dodged to the side.
That bastard!
Ignoring the pain in his side, Jo Joong-sik charged again.
Thwack!
Jo Joong-siks thrown dagger hit the yer square in the forehead.
You damn bastard! How dare you aim at me?
After retrieving his dagger, Jo Joong-sik took a deep breath, blood trickling from his side and covering his body in wounds.
Vigntly, Jo Joong-sik scanned his surroundings.
Damn it, I have to be more cautious of yers than monsters.
Clearly, yers were more troublesome than the goblins.
Who knows where the next surprise attack wille from.
Jo Joong-sik regretted his position as the zone representative.
This damn zone representative title I wish I could pass it on to someone else!
But the only way to do so was through death, leaving him with no other choice but to remain on high alert.
Thwack!
Jo Joong-sik resumed his hunting, but he had to be cautious of his surroundings.
Naturally, his hunting speed slowed down.
The pain in his thigh grew more intense with each passing moment.
Should I have just epted ck Scythes offer?
The thought crossed his mind, but Jo Joong-sik shook his head.
A man has his pride. I wont bow down to him.
He needed an alternative.
A way to hunt safely without worrying about yer threats.
Hmm? What about him?
At that moment, Jo Joong-sik noticed the name [ck me Dragon].
He was ranked third in the area.
A brilliant idea sparked in Jo Joong-siks mind as he approached ck me Dragon.
Hey.
?
ck me Dragon, who was fully engaged in hunting, turned his head.
In an instant, Jo Joong-siks eyes glowed with purple light.
It was the transformation that urred when he used the Command Authority.
From now on, protect me. ck me Dragon.
