since.

The strategy has completely changed.

Although they didn’t ask Kang-hoo directly, all three were confident that Kang-hoo could suppress Duke Bluet’s Blink.

So Miyuki also started to pressure Duke Blut with her ultimate flame magic.

Kuaaa! Kuaaa!

Giant flame spears continued to fly in at regular intervals.

Duke Blut was in a desperate situation because Kang-hoo was not keeping his distance.

Since I can’t use Blink, I have no choice but to use a defensive response, and my skills are forced towards shields.

The problem was that in the meantime, Kang-hoo kept targeting his flanks and rear.

Phew!

“Kwaaah!”

In the end, I ended up being beheaded again. It was a vicious cycle.

If you want to deal with Kang-hoo’s great beheading, you can’t avoid Miyuki’s flame spear, and the same goes for the opposite case.

As Kang-hoo’s stamina was depleted while using the Great Decapitation, Ahn Young-ho assisted with long-distance healing.

And Eto easily blocked the occasional counterattack magic that Duke Blut fired.

The attack is ineffective.

It was like being forced to defend and then getting beaten up in a fun way.

Eventually, Duke Blut, who was cornered to the point of being cornered, tried to suck Kang-hoo’s blood, thinking that it was a do-or-die situation.

It was a situation where the blood sucking would have been effective as Kang-hoo was coming in to stab him in the back.

but.

Pporororong!

“… … ?”

Kang-hoo, who noticed Duke Bluet’s blood sucking attempt, used his cuteness skill to create slime in front of him and escaped.

Because of that, Duke Blut had to taste the jelly of the poor slime. His fangs were stuck in the pit.

at that time.

Hwaaaaak!

A giant flame dragon, one level more upgraded than the previously seen flame spear, flew towards Duke Blut.

It was a skill that looked like it would have a pretty long cooldown, no matter who looked at it. It looked like it would be so bad that it wouldn’t even be able to break a bone if it hit.

Even though he couldn’t use Blink, Duke Blut increased his speed, thinking he could somehow move and escape.

First of all, it was thought to be a possible picture because Kang-hoo had stepped back while making slime.

however.

Pupupupu!

Blood began to explode all over his body.

A situation where you are caught in an explosion of force majeure and your body flutters around like a paper doll.

Only then did Duke Blut realize that, in common parlance, the situation was a mess.

The bloodshot completely blocked Duke Bluet’s movements. His body did not listen to him regardless of his will.

and.

Kuaaaah… … .

A pillar of fire rose from the spot where Duke Blut was holding the Flame Dragon.

Although he was a black silhouette, it was not difficult to see the figure of Duke Blutt caught in the pillar of fire.

‘I’m not dead yet.’

Tadadot!

At that point, Kang-hoo was already rushing towards Duke Bluet.

The fact that the silhouette is visible means that it didn’t burst or tear itself apart to death inside anyway.

It is indeed a middle boss monster.

It was also the appearance of the upper boss monsters that Kang-hoo would face in the future.

It doesn’t die easily. Even if you get hit by an unexpected blow, you won’t die right from the start.

It is tough and durable, with a matte finish. That is, until its special defense mechanisms break down.

【Line of Distortion】

Even as they were running at full speed, they had already created a starting line on one side and started stretching it out.

Then, Kang-hoo created an ending line, tightened the line of distortion, and pushed it forward.

It’s like tying a string taut between two poles and then pushing one pole forward.

The next moment.

“Khuuuk!”

The diagonal line of distortion naturally wrapped around Duke Blut’s neck.

The line then released and contracted, wrapping itself around Duke Blut’s neck as if it were a scarf.

【distortion】

The distortion that follows is triggered.

Then, a very gory scene unfolded before the eyes of the other pleasant group members.

Duke Blut’s neck began to split open, as if it had been cut by a saw, with blood spurting out in all directions.

Even for a moment, his body, which had been tattered by the blood and Miyuki’s flame dragon, did not have the strength to endure.

Denggeong!

Duke Blut’s neck, caught in the diagonal line of distortion, could not hold out and was separated from his body.

It was instant death.

【Level up to 227!】

The level-up issue occurred right away.

Perhaps because it was a special reinforcement dungeon, the experience points given were definitely substantial. It felt like I was gaining quite a bit of benefit.

There was no separate drop of loot. Everyone was complaining that there was no reward even though they caught it like this.

Kang-hoo had no complaints at all, as he had already achieved his initial goal of stealing skills.

The activated skills were short-distance movement and blood sucking. It seemed to be the official name of the skill that was tentatively called Blink.

‘I’d like to suck blood.’

The struggle to choose didn’t last long.

Blinkryu’s skills have many substitutes from Kanghoo’s perspective.

Rather than blinking and moving a short distance of a few meters, it was more efficient to change positions with a shadow step like now.

In addition, blink skills are skills that should never be used if they cause mana interference or distortion.

In other words, it is a skill that has increasingly more restrictions on its use, so from Kang-hoo’s perspective, it is a type that is of low value.

When I chose Vampirism, the contents were immediately displayed in the skill window.

【Vampire – Human】

【Skill Proficiency: Lv. Max】

【It sucks blood from living ‘humans’ to restore stamina.

The longer the blood sucking time, the more stamina is recovered exponentially, and the opponent’s stamina decreases rapidly.】

‘I don’t think I’ll ever use it.’

This is a skill that has no use in normal combat.

There is no time to suck blood while embracing each other’s bodies dangerously, let alone using stronger skills.

But if the exchange of blows gets to the point where they are close to exhaustion, it seems like it could be a fatal counter punch.

This is because the structure is designed to restore your own vitality while reducing the opponent’s vitality.

If this happens, it’s not a simple recovery, but a gap of twice as much as the opponent falls is created where I rise.

‘It’s true that it’s a skill that suits my appearance well.’

Kang-hoo quietly burst into laughter.

Sometimes when I looked at my pale reflection in the mirror, I thought I was a vampire from a movie.

“Wow! The last combo was really great! Thanks to Kang-hoo’s plan, Hwa-ryong was able to get in on the target!”

Miyuki, who had come running in one go, repeatedly raised both thumbs towards Kang-hoo.

Her voice was agitated with positivity, perhaps because she was thinking about seeing a fantastic link-up play.

“Our skills matched each other very well.”

“It was originally meant to be a deterrent! But thanks to Kang-hoo creating the explosion, it ended up being the finisher!”

“It was good.”

Kang-hoo didn’t forget to value her support fire either. Praise is a tonic to anyone.

“Brother… … . Can’t you just stay in our guild? I want to feast my eyes on you a little longer.”

‘Japan’s Park Dong-jae’ has become a compliment bot, spewing out words of admiration.

Sometimes, Park Dong-jae’s level of praise is so high that it makes you wonder if he’s cleverly lying.

Since Youngho Ahn had a constellation that required him to only tell the truth, he had no other thoughts as he was certain that it was sincere.

“This is the first time I’ve seen Blink suppressed. Since Duke Blut’s specialty is blocked, he immediately becomes an idiot.”

“Thanks to Eto-sama’s defensive skill effect, which caught his attention well, the bypass attack worked.”

“Thank you. Thanks to you, I can easily get through difficult sections. You’re awesome.”

We also exchanged pleasantries with Etowa.

Conversations that may be awkward. But not a single person in these conversations was not sincere.

* * *

After that, there were no particular issues while moving from the middle to the middle to late part of the dungeon.

There were no ghost-type monsters, and no tough, tough guys that were difficult to deal with.

Of course, the difficult parts of this dungeon start to appear in the second half, so everyone was very tense.

and.

Whack! Whack! Whack!

A loud whipping sound was heard, clear enough to be heard from afar.

“It looks like it’s finally coming out.”

“The main stage starts now.”

Miyuki and Eto took a deep breath and began to loosen up the parts of their bodies that had been slightly stiff.

This is because from now on, Kang-hoo’s dependence on ‘maintaining bleeding’ becomes extremely high.

The name of the monster that appeared is the Fallen Berserker.

It was a monster with a blue light shining all over its body, as if it had been pickled in poison.

The main weapon is a whip.

It was a monster that was burdensome to close-range dealers because its striking distance was quite long and each shot had strong firepower.

These guys have significant resistance to both physical and magical attacks unless they are under a bleeding effect.

It’s not 100%, but it’s almost impossible to hit as the resistance increases to the extreme.

On the other hand, if you are bleeding, you will die much more easily than normal monsters.

The problem is that since there are so many of them, there is a limit to how much you can handle by bleeding them one by one.

Because a fallen zealot who approaches while not bleeding exerts tremendous pressure.

“First of all, Mr. Eto can cause bleeding in one-on-one combat, so start by defeating the nearby enemies one by one.”

“All right.”

It was decided that Kang-hoo would be in charge of the main order in this section.

That’s why Eto nodded and followed the instructions even though he was much higher level than Kang-hoo.

To begin with, Miyuki, Eto, and Youngho Ahn were all open-minded hunters, so they didn’t act like old farts.

“Miyuki, please give some firepower to the bleeding berserkers. There’s no need to force yourself to use powerful skills.”

“all right.”

“Youngho. You should practice combat while you’re at it. It’s okay if you accidentally recover stamina, so do it boldly.”

“Okay, brother.”

“Okay, let’s go.”

Pfft!

Kang-hoo spread his shadow in five different directions as he walked.

At the same time, the main body rushed towards the light warrior approaching from the front. He was already putting strength into his whip.

Shhh!

The whip goes all the way back.

The moment when the light warrior rotates his shoulder forward and tries to strike Kang-hoo with the recoil.

“Eww!”

The light warrior was dragged to Kang-hoo with a sound of his form disappearing. He was caught in the kidnapping skill.

The wind blew up the whip swing. That was a secondary issue, the biggest issue was… … .

Phew!

He was so orthodox that he was stabbed in the center of his chest.

【Blood】

Pupupupu!

It started off cleanly.

The light warrior who had been hit by a combination of beheading and bloodshed was unable to endure it with his body weakened by blood loss.

It just exploded like a firecracker and killed him instantly.

Since the Great Decapitation consumes both stamina and magic power, it cannot be fired in rapid succession.

But in order to seize the initiative, I wanted to completely crush the first guy, and my plan worked.

The group of berserkers who were raising their voices in hostility, each showing their yellow teeth, stopped for a moment.

Change location.

This is where it all started.

Kang-hoo stabbed the men, switching places with the shadows he had attached to the other light warriors in advance.

【Bleeding Stab】

Basic bleeding inducing skill.

【Bleeding Enhancement】

【Skill Proficiency: Lv Max】

【Increases the effectiveness of skills with existing bleeding effects by 2 to 3 times with a random probability.】

With the addition of the passive bleeding enhancement, each Berserker will now inflict bleeding for 4 to 6 seconds.

It was a much longer time than the two seconds that passed in an instant.

Pok! Pok! Pok!

It only took about 2 seconds to cause bleeding equally(?) on all five of them.

If it were normal, it would be a difficult time to handle even one thing.

But at that time, Kang-hoo kills one.

Five was showing off their best performance, stripping away their tolerance by bleeding.

That wasn’t all.

As I was using the shadow walk again, I was looking at the picture that would continue bleeding once again.

A situation where Kang-hoo sets the table all by himself.

All that was left was for the three of them to diligently eat.
