just the impact of 15% reduction in physical harm alone could’ve made it a top-tier item, but it even possessed two more great additional attributes of raising the Stamina and power Stats with the aid of 20 factors every.
simply seeing those options alone made his coronary heart palpitate a lot faster.
‘The rarity A gadgets can’t even evaluate to it!’
He had acquired A-ranked gadgets up until now.
the primary become the Poison Sac of Kasaka, the only he were given after he defeated the snake ‘Blue Kasaka’; the second being the Gatekeeper’s Necklace after he defeated the Cerberus.
the ones gadgets were already pretty splendid.
The poison sac had the terrible penalty of stealing 35 points from his power Stat, however its effect additionally decreased the bodily damage taken by using 20%.
What about the Gatekeeper’s Necklace, then?
It became one of the quality items available that improved both Agility and belief Stats with the aid of 20 each – Stats he now knew the significance of.
but the crimson Knight’s Helm possessed the kind of buffing effect that mixed each of these items. And with none penalty, besides.
‘No want to say it. It’s the nice.’
He turned into completely aware of the fact that he was standing in the center of the dungeon’s boss room, but the smile on his face didn’t need to head away.
And if he were to feature in a single more pointless factor right here, he even favored the helm’s layout.
‘It’s a chunk of a pity to cover this issue, even though.’
The purple helm that straight away reminded all onlookers of the flowing blood, and the mane connected to the helm itself, made him experience like he become retaining a creative masterpiece.
It changed into only for a short second, however he even felt forced to position on the entire set of this armour if it existed somewhere.
however…
‘What a waste….’
Igrit’s different armour pieces weren’t taken into consideration to be loot, as there were no lighting fixtures coming off from them. only the helm will be taken away.
Jin-Woo compelled returned a rueful smile and cautiously put on the helm.
Poof.
just as continually, the helm disappeared from the view right away.
despite the fact that he couldn’t show off his new look, his Stats had received a big improve way to his new headwear.
[Stats]
energy: 128 (+20)
Stamina: 87 (+20)
Agility: 107
Intelligence: 66
perception: 89
discount in bodily damage: forty six% (+15%)
The numbers performing in brackets have been the will increase in his Stats from the helm itself. now not most effective the electricity and Stamina Stats, however the tough-to-boom harm reduction Stat all enjoyed huge boosts.
He was absolutely and wholly happy now.
Having showed the increase along with his very own eyes, his coronary heart started out beating even quicker.
‘No, no, no.’
Jin-Woo quickly shook his head.
‘the hunt isn’t over yet, so permit’s loosen up.’
except, he nevertheless had other objects to sort out, too.
With the trace of excitement nonetheless lingering in his thoughts, Jin-Woo shifted his gaze to the other two gadgets.
[Rune Stone: Ruler’s Reach]
[Item: Immediate Return Stone]
portions of stones.
Out of the 2 walnut-sized stones, the first one to grab his curious gaze changed into the immediately return Stone.
‘I recognise what is a Rune Stone, but this….’
just what could this on the spot go back Stone do?
His curiosity were given resolved quite fast, but. The information at the immediately return Stone floated up right away.
Tti-ring.
[Item: Immediate Return Stone]
Rarity: ??
kind: Consumable
An object different to this magnificence exchange Quest. when destroyed, you’ll be transported outside the dungeon without delay. but, once the class trade Quest has been concluded, it’ll robotically be destroyed.
Can’t be stored in the inventory.
The way to use it turned into much like a Rune Stone.
however, to think that its effect wasn’t approximately absorbing a new talent, but to get away from this dungeon….
‘hang on a sec. The elegance change Quest isn’t over but?!’
If that were the case, then this precise object should’ve been destroyed already.
since it hadn’t, that could handiest suggest…
For some purpose, he felt a creeping sit back slowly caress his spine.
What an strange sensation that become.
He had obtained one of the great gadgets obtainable that would help him make his get away from this dungeon, yet why turned into he getting this noticeably awful premonition proper now?
If this stone can be utilized in regular dungeons, and now not simplest in the machine-generated ones, then pretty much every person alive would strive to shop for this aspect.
severely, this stone might be similar to having a positive-fire way to save their lives, so no one ought to be silly sufficient to pinch pennies when looking to get their palms on one.
It was the equal with Jin-Woo, too. simply this item by myself must lower the burden of this quest via a first-rate deal.
‘If I so pick….’
….He’d be able to escape at any time.
however, the ominous feeling taking root inside the nook of his mind didn’t need to go away, irrespective of what.
And, certain sufficient!
The warning beep from the machine went off in his head as if it was expecting this second.
Tti-ring.
[‘Player’ has acquired the Immediate Return Stone.]
[The ‘Class Change Quest’ will now commence.]
Son of a b*tch!
So, this become the object to begin the hunt for actual!
He nearly fainted instant. He felt like he had stepped on some thing he shouldn’t have within the first place.
‘If I knew this could happen, I’d have taken a brief wreck first!’
What could regret do for him now?
no matter how a lot one trusted one’s experience and knowledge to predict the destiny, one might never be able to correctly wager the tricks of fate.
A strand of bloodless sweat dripped down from Jin-Woo’s brow.
Jin-Woo summoned the status Window inwardly and showed the final HP and his fatigue stage.
[HP: 4161/10270]
[MP: 390/850]
[Tiredness: 61]
‘The Tiredness Stat is a piece at the excessive facet, but i can nonetheless do that.’
The helm’s added consequences more advantageous his Stamina Stat by using loads, which meant that his overall persistence had elevated significantly as properly, and his final HP had risen up as an brought bonus, too.
What a relief that become.
as though to inspire himself, Jin-Woo endured to tell himself that…
‘i’m able to nevertheless try this. It’s now not impossible.’
Of direction, his existence have to no longer be in any forthcoming threat. because, he held the on the spot go back Stone, in spite of everything.
but, irrespective of how tough he thought about it, this immediately return Stone sounded awfully like an item that signified him giving up at the quest.
If that became not the case, then it shouldn’t were the hunt-beginning object, to start with.
‘If I give up in this quest….’
Wouldn’t or not it’s the same as him giving up in this risk to get his magnificence?
The bloodless sweat on his forehead rolled beyond his temple and all the way down to his chin, earlier than dripping down.
Gulp.
simply as he swallowed a bit of dry spit and his Adam’s apple bobbed up and down, the gadget’s new message popped up in his view.
Tti-ring.
[In ten seconds, dimensional doorways will be randomly generated.]
‘Dimensional doorways?’
Even earlier than his query may be cleared up, massive numbers regarded up inside the middle of the air.
[00:00:10]
He ought to without problems tell what that changed into.
It maximum in all likelihood changed into signifying the countdown.
in the meantime, the messages persevered on.
[‘Player’ has a choice.]
[You can escape from the dungeon by using the Immediate Return Stone, or….]
…..8, 7, 6.
The timer persevered to tick right down to zero.
[Or, endure as long as you can and earn as many advancement points as possible in order to access the higher ranked classes.]
“endure?! bear what precisely?”
He ended up shouting out loudly as his frustration installed. but, Jin-Woo turned into already protecting the Poison Fang of Kasaka summoned from his inventory.
He stored the Rune Stone inside the stock, whilst the immediately go back Stone changed into positioned within the returned of his pocket because it couldn’t be saved there.
despite the fact that his heart beat rapid and tough enough to nearly explode, he didn’t forget about to get ready for the conflict that changed into about to come.
That turned into how Seong Jin-Woo operated.
[The Class Change Quest will soon commence.]
….four, 3, 2.
Jin-Woo anxiously glared at the time and fast scanned his surroundings.
His head and eyes darted round speedy, over right here and over there.
some thing ominous became truly getting ready to start; the gap round him turned into setting apart and twisting visibly to his eyes.
[00:00:01]
[I wish you the best of luck.]
What?
For the first time ever, the device expressed ’emotion’.
Too terrible, he had no time to stew inner his shock. the instant the timer hit zero, numerous Gates commenced forming all round him.
Buzzz…
Wuuooong….
no longer simply one or , either.
He first noticed six round him. The quantity continued to climb up even better, however.
And at the same time, the timer started out ticking upwards.
[00:00:02]
The ‘countdown’ began once more.
The time could come to be his so-referred to as advancement factors. He hadn’t understood the whole lot the gadget stated, however nonetheless, he did figure out some elements of it.
‘The longer I bear, the more potent i will get.’
No, greater especially, he’d as a substitute get a powerful elegance.
there has been no way he’d throw away a golden opportunity like this. He also had some wiggle room left with his HP and MP.
‘let’s endure so long as i can.’
[00:00:03]
when the timer hit precisely 3 seconds, weapon-much less knights poured out from the nearest Gate.
Thud, thud, thud, thud….
whilst the knights decked out in full armour shaped silver-coloured waves, the floor couldn’t help but tremor from the load.
The momentum these items displayed might were sufficient to crush most of the people, but there has been a grin floating up onto Jin-Woo’s lips, as an alternative.
‘If it’s these men, i’m able to truly fight them!’
In a way, he become oh-so-glad to peer them as his fighters.
If the monsters popping out from the Gates befell to be as sturdy as Igrit, then he wouldn’t also be able to remaining multiple seconds.
‘Stealth!’
Jin-Woo used some part of the final MP and activated the skill ‘Stealth’.
‘for the time being, I should study what’s occurring right here first.’
Jin-Woo’s form blurred and slowly disappeared. As expected, the knights speeding in the direction of him all came to an abrupt halt.
but…
[The mage has used ‘Skill: Eyes of Detection’.]
The crisp ‘tti-ring’ of the warning beep resounded in his head. Jin-Woo’s head snapped within the course of the beep.
‘What turned into that?’
He spotted a mage that had just emerged from the Gate chanting a spell. That’s also when Jin-Woo determined an ‘eye’ like symbol floating above the pinnacle of the mage.
the moment that eye flashed…!
In that moment, Jin-Woo’s Stealth turned into cancelled.
‘F*ck!’
From the get-go, his calculation proved to be manner off the mark.
Snap.
Snap.
The knights that stood round like telephone poles snapped their heads unexpectedly towards Jin-Woo’s path. It became a scene directly out of a horror film.
and shortly enough, the silver waves pounced on him.
Jin-Woo’s eyes opened wider and he gritted his tooth.
increase!!
His punch blew away the head of the incoming knight.
That man died wherein it stood.
[You defeated the knight.]
Crazed lighting shone in Jin-Woo’s eyes.
‘Intimidation!’
[‘Skill: Intimidation’ has been activated.]
[‘Effect: Fear’ has been activated.]
[The targets’ (All) Stats will decrease by 50% for one minute.]
The actions of the monsters have become a lot duller thru the effects of ‘fear’, however his Mana fell all the way down to ninety points.
The Intimidation required a hundred MP that allows you to prompt.
He wouldn’t be capable of use it the second one time.
‘however, I simply bought myself a minute.’
intending to apply this precious minute to the excellent of his abilities as the monsters were notably weakened, Jin-Woo started wailing on them with the whole lot he had.
boom!
Crack!
Kaboom!
Slam!
With a terrifying momentum, he proceeded to absolutely dismantle the knights.
growth! Slam! Crack!!
Too bad, the rate of him defeating knights became a long way not as good as the price of the replacement knights popping out from the Gates.
Rumble—!!
Even in the midst of the maddened war, Jin-Woo sneaked a look at the timer.
[00:03:19]
It’d handiest been three minutes and 19 seconds.
If that turned into converted into factors, how a great deal would he get?
Wouldn’t it be high-quality for him to leave this vicinity now?
but, he didn’t have any leeway to dwell on that matter.
Even at the same time as he changed into thinking to himself, knights had been continuously pouring out from the Gates like unstoppable waves.
He managed to smash infinite Knights, but he virtually couldn’t address so many of them.
“U-uwaaaahh-?!”
in the long run, Jin-Woo turned into buried inside the sea of knights.
[Passive skill, ‘Tenacity’ has been activated.]
[Passive skill, ‘Tenacity’ has been activated.]
His HP turned into in a freefall now and finally, it hit rock backside.
[HP: 1036/10270]
‘The time is….?’
[00:05:08]
five mins and 8 seconds.
He had continued enough, hadn’t he?
‘……allow’s get out of right here.’
Now absolutely entrapped a few of the knights, Jin-Woo flailed about helplessly in this silver jail and dug via his lower back pocket.
but…
Drop.
The on the spot return Stone slipped out from his hold close and fell to the ground.
And the roundish stone hit the sole of one of the knights and rolled away a long way from him.
“NOOO!!”
Jin-Woo hurriedly reached out toward the stone, but the knights blocked him.
soon, knights piled up on pinnacle of him, too.
It have become nearly impossible to breathe in an instantaneous.
[Passive skill, ‘Tenacity’ has been activated.]
[Passive skill, ‘Tenacity’ has been activated.]
His awareness began to blur.
Pow, pow!!
He continuously were given struck by using the knights at the same time as trapped beneath them, and as his thoughts commenced to grow dimmer, he concept he heard a snarky cackle coming from somewhere.
you’ve got brought this upon yourself, understand that.
‘…….’
Why did you risk it all while there has been a secure direction if you want to observe? Isn’t it already a massive destroy for a rank E Hunter to turn out to be a C, or maybe a B?
‘……’
nicely, in the long run, this turned into as some distance as you may go.
‘……close up.’
keep in mind, you killed yourself these days.
close the hell up!!
Kwaboom!!
The knights surrounding and pressing down on Jin-Woo have been all of sudden all blown away.
even though he by some means managed to crawl out from death, his eyes have been burning with existence. As a count number of fact, his eyes were burning with a stubborn will and sheer malice.
‘I gained’t permit it stop like this!!’
He earned this possibility after going via a lot. So, how may want to he let it give up like this? by no means.
because he was stuck on the very backside for so long, he yearned to be on top greater than everyone else. He knew the sorrow of the vulnerable higher than anybody. He attempted the entirety to continue to exist, and when he did live to tell the tale, others kept pointing fingers at him.
How will a rank E be of any help here?
The association is being manner too much. They need to’ve dispatched a person who ought to virtually lend a bit of help, however that man is… Uh-whew.
That b*stard, perhaps he continues surviving by way of hiding at the back of his colleagues whenever?
So, how ought to he without a doubt watch and do not anything, when a ladder that could take him to the very pinnacle became installed front of his eyes?
What a rubbish perception that become.
‘….I don’t forget now.’
That voice ringing around his head simply now.
That voice belonged to the ones b*stards.
The voice that constantly yapped on and on from at the back of his returned.
‘exceptional, chortle all you need.
‘I’ll conflict on until the sour quit.
‘It’s nice if my HP drops to 10, no, 1. I’ll warfare and struggle on like loopy, proper until the quit. I’ll combat till I gained’t be able to pass anymore.’
“Uwaaahh!!!”
Jin-Woo threw his body forward.
Crack!
He thrust ahead some other punch.
A knight’s breastplate caved in and the monster flew away. different knights collided with it and all of them fell on their butts.
however then, extra knights rushed in again.
Jin-Woo’s movements became a step more violent in response.
Crack! increase!! Slam!!
without an exception, knights colliding with Jin-Woo’s body components, be that his fist, elbow, knee, ft, have been all destroyed like a gaggle of paper dolls.
[Tiredness has exceeded 70 points.]
[Your movement is being restricted.]
simply because the warning message stated, his actions became duller. however, the malice and anger in Jin-Woo’s eyes didn’t weaken in the slightest.
one by one, the knights he couldn’t defeat in a single hit slammed into him. Jin-Woo resorted to hitting them three, 4 instances and made certain to damage them.
[…..8, 7, 6, 5.]
inside the period in-between, a strange countdown changed into silently ticking down. He was too centered at the war so he did not observe it earlier than the timer had reached the unmarried digit.
‘What’s this? Is the quest coming to an stop?’
A small ray of hope blossomed in his head for a brief moment, but it turned out to be nothing however a vain dream.
[00:06:27]
the hunt timer became nonetheless ticking up because it supposed to. No, something break away this timer become counting down one second at a time.
[4, 3, 2.]
‘Is it to reveal me the time of my loss of life?’
indeed, the system did inform him this way lower back then; it told him that, if he didn’t accept becoming a player, he’d die zero.02 seconds later.
‘quality.’
Jin-Woo glared fiercely.
‘I’ll gladly burn up each second, right down to the very last 2d!’
Slam!! Crack!!
extra knights have been destroyed within the meantime.
not like Jin-Woo’s unyielding stubbornness, although, his complete frame became now riddled with all sorts of wounds. It gradually a good deal harder to raise his hands.
His weakened fist wasn’t enough to stop the knights’ tackles and fees anymore.
From the the front, one; from the back, every other one.
Slam!!
Jin-Woo was sandwiched powerfully through the 2 knights slamming into him from the back and front, and he spat out a pained groan.
“Keok!”
other knights pounced on him as though they didn’t need to overlook this hazard.
in the blink of an eye, Jin-Woo turned into buried beneath the loads of knights and couldn’t even elevate a finger.
Rumble-!
Even in the course of that, more knights persisted to pile on top of Jin-Woo. The silver waves had converted right into a silver mountain, instead.
Jin-Woo’s respiratory became highly harsh.
“Pant, pant….!!”
At this rate, he’d be asphyxiated to death first.
Jin-Woo’s hand by some means broke out from the gaps of the knights and helplessly pointed toward the sky.
[HP: 93/10270]
He changed into in a without a doubt determined scenario. Even then, Jin-Woo did not surrender, though.
‘No, not yet. i’m able to still go on….’
just as Jin-Woo managed to clench the hand pointing on the sky, the mysterious countdown ticking down subsequently introduced its end.
[…..1, 0.]
[You’ve failed to complete the Daily Quest.]
[ You’ll be transferred to the ‘Penalty Zone’.]
