Chapter 87[OK]

It was a strange phenomenon.
The louder and closer the footsteps on the other side, the less and less the Hunters make.

"Son Hyung..."
"..."

Silence settled down in the whole place.
You pricked it.
Sung-Jin-Woo's earlobes moved.
Taking advantage of the quietness around him, Sung-Jin-Woo gauged the numbers with the sound of his feet.
in a flap
in a flap
Thanks to its advanced hearing and high-sensory stats, it was possible to distinguish each footstep.

'48, 49, 50, 51.'

a total of 51 foot sounds
It was like the footsteps of the High-orc warriors earlier.
Sung-Jin-Woo looked around.

'...'

Hunter looked nervous.
They also noticed the approximate size of their enemies through guesswork.
The striker had just won a narrow victory over 22 High-Ok fighters.
But now there are 51.
More than double the number.

'...there's no chance of winning.'

These, for the raids.
Suddenly, Sung-Jin-Woo looked back at his shadow.
The shadows seemed to shrivel.
Uh-
The shadow soldiers who wanted to see the blood seemed to be coming out.
Sung-Jin-Woo turned his head again.
Boom, boom, boom.
My heart began to tremble violently.

'Wait...'

It's not the time yet.
So self-possessed Sung-Jin-Woo stared quietly at the front.
Finally, they showed up.
Chuck.
The high orcs stood in front of the hunters at a distance.

"Chrulr."
"Creak."

The high orcs growling as if they are rushing at once.
The pressure of more than fifty High-Ok warriors was indescribable.
Even without fighting, the result was obvious.

"That's crazy."
"This is ridiculous..."
"Uh ..."

Hunter groaned.
they stepped back under pressure, but unfortunately their retreat was blocked.
What will you do now?
Everyone finished preparing to fight a long time ago, but no one came forward and only looked at Son's attitude as the leader.
Sohn kept his mouth shut with a straight line.

'Damn it...'

If there were either final representatives or second year Hunter...
His hair was wrinkled.
S-Rank had great powers to reverse the war that was disadvantageous.
If they had them, these high-oaks would be nothing.

'Why at this moment...'

Is not there a couple of them?
Sohn, who had always fought with them, was now feeling desperate how helpless he was.
The absence of S-Rank was so painful.
But I could not hate it forever.
Now I had to make a decision.

'Fighting here is a lump.'

But as the back was blocked, there was no room for choice.
When I decided to become a hunter, when I first step in a dungeon, and when I lost consciousness when I was seriously injured.
Maybe someday such a day would come.

'Yes, it was.'

Son Ki-hoon, who was determined to die, pulled out his sword.
*shing!*.
Soon-hoon turned around and the hunters nodded, waiting for the leader's instructions.
Sohn's head turned to the front again.
With his shield up to his chin, he stared at the high orcs, which still do not seem to move.

'Have you finally decided?'

Sung-Jin-Woo is also ready.
A 'dagger of baruka' appeared on the back of his right hand.
And closed my eyes.
His heart sank calmly before the battle.
Throbbing, throbbing, throbbing.
Relax and breathe evenly.

'... OK.

Sung-Jin-Woo's eyes were shining with keen glare.
It's the last straw.
Hunter gulped dry saliva that was not easily overtaken. A cold sweat formed on their forehead.
Sung-Jin-Woo, on the other hand, swallowed his mouth.
gulp.

How much experience do they give me?'

A light smile spread around Sung-Jin-Woo's mouth.
But then.
A high-orc went forward.
After harming the previous Orcs, and walked around looking at the Hunters with his beastly eyes.

"Grrrr ..."

He's bigger and bigger than the others.

'Is he the boss?'

Sung-Jin-Woo's eyes narrowed.
Would not it be easier to fight if I take him right now?
What should I do?
While Sung-Jin-Woo was agonizing over the handle of Baruka's dagger, High-orc's mouth opened.

"Krelactu Shina Wigdu Araunaca."

a loud voice
High-oak's gaze was fixed at the head of the raid.

"Kreraktu Shina Wigdu Araunaka!"

a roaring voice
The hunters' eyes became busy.

"What?"
"Are you talking to us now?"
"What are you saying?"

At that moment.
High-Orc's facial muscles began to tremble.
And when the tremor stopped, there was a completely different voice in his mouth.

"Human beings..."

Like someone else says, with his mouth open.

"Human people..."

As you can see, his eyes were blurry as old died fish.
Huh!
Hunter was shocked as if he had been hit hard in the back of his head.
Orc speaks human language!

How can the orcs speak Korean?'
'Magic? Is it magic? "

Unexpected events kept Hunter's mouth shut.
The voice of Captain High orc continued.

"I ... Karkagan ... you ... meet humans ... I want ... I want ... this guy ... follow me."

May you want to talk to people?
It has never been reported before.
In the unprecedented situation, Sohn Ki-hoon and all of the raids were very confused.

"Ki-hoon. You don't believe what monster says, do you?"
"Ignore it."
"It's a trap, it's a trap.
"If it's still a verbal Orc......"
"You've been in and out of Dungeon, don't you know the magicians yet?"

In a short period of time, they also had mixed opinions.
Sohn Ki-hoon, who kept silence, responded to his voice.

"Is it you who blocked the cave, Karkagan?"
"Yes ... I am ... Pride ... High ... Orc ... Great sorcerer ... My ... Magic ... Ye ... Human ... Force ... I can not do it.
"Is there something stronger in this cave than you?"
"Who ... dare ... this ... me ... against the enemy ... I mean!"

A deafening roar struck Hunter's eardrums.
Many of the hunters were impressed or blocked from hearing, but Sohn calmly nodded.
I guessed right.
The person who is talking about borrowing the mouth of the high orc now must have been the boss of this dungeon.
Until the dungeon breaks you can not get out of the boss room, so bring the hunters to their place.

'I don't know why, but...'

Sohn's reply was delayed, Captain High-orc held an axe above his head.

"Choose ... here ... my ... soldiers ... die ... or ... my ... soldiers ... followed."
"I will go."

With Sohn's immediate answer, Hunter's eyes widened.

"Huh, brother!"
"Mr. Ki-hoon!"
Sohn Ki-hoon, who stopped his colleagues, watched High-orc's reaction.

"Come along ... human."

At the end of the words, Captain high-orc's murky eyes were restored to their original color.
Two beastly eyes.
He said.

"Ashe to Leka."

In one word, the high-orc warriors, who had been burning their enemies just now, began to pull back like lies.
High-Orc, who had not withdrawn, waved as if to follow Sohn. (orc-human-orc)

"We'll go, too."

Sohn Ki-hoon was the first to leave, and the hesitant Hunters soon followed him one by one.

'What are you thinking?'

Jinwoo had wondered eyes.
There will be more high-orcs in the boss room than this, and of course there will be less chance of winning.
However, I couldn't guess what Sohn intended to do with them.

'Is he trying to negotiate with the boss? To get back alive?'

The chances of success seem low, but...
No.
Maybe it's a good thing.
I thought I'd end up catching a few mobs, but I'm finally able to meet the boss in this raid.
Sung-Jin-Woo sent the dagger back to the warehouse.
And slowly followed the party.
How long did he walk?
Sohn Kee-hoon, who slowed down his pace gradually, had come to the side.
He called Jinwoo with a low voice.

"Hunter."
"Yes."

Jinwoo looked ahead and replied.
Sohn Ki-hoon also spoke without taking his eyes off the back of the high-orc walking in front of him.

"If we meet the boss, we will raid him. And whether the result is successful or not, he won't be able to maintain the magic that was blocking the way."

The plan seem likely to be.
Unless it was a curse magic, you had to concentrate on it to maintain it.
Especially, the higher the level of magic, the more intense the concentration required.
But what is it?
If you succeed in killing the boss or stop the boss's spell, you'll soon be surrounded by High-Orc warriors and you won't be able to get out the boss' room.
The possibility that the raid is still alive is rare.
As if to clear up Seung-Jin-Woo's curiosity, Sohn said with a spit in face.

"While their eyes are sold to us, you runs away from the boss' room. Please get out of the dungeon and contact the main offensive team."

By the time the attack squad including S-Rank Hunter gets here, it'll be all over.
Sohn was ready to die.

"Are you going to die with the boss?"

Sung-Jin-Woo glanced at Sohn's face.
His expression was firm, but his eyes were not shaky.

"Our job is not to survive the dungeon, but to close the gate. A lot of people are paying us a lot of money for it."

Sohn Ki-hoon spoke with great strength.

"We're going to do what we've learned. But you're not. You don't have to die here. Please get out of here alive."

I felt a strong conviction in his voice.
He was prepared for a mortal decision.
Nothing seemed to help Sohn here.
So Jin-woo replied by nodding his head.


***


Cha Hae-in arrived at the scene.
It was rare to find a man wearing a hat.
She moved to find the mining team hunters.
A few hunters passed by her side, but they did not pay much attention to the fact that they were guild-related.
Bae was seen far away.
The mining team Hunter, who is gathered near him.
Pounding, pounding.
My heart began to beat.
She glanced over the faces of the mining team Hunter from a step away.

'Is he...?

Jinwoo was not seen.
What should I say?
I felt my pulse fluttering.

"Did you quit mining?"

Let's wait one more minute.
Maybe you've been away for a while.
Three more minutes.
No, five more minutes.
After waiting for 15 minutes, Sung-Jin-Woo was nowhere to be seen.

"After"

Cha Hae-in turned around with a long sigh.
But within a few seconds she was return to where she was standing.
Taking off her hat and taking a deep breath, she walked to the team leader.
The mining team's Hunter turned to her.
Fortunately, the mining teams were all low-rank hunters, so the smell was not that bad.

"What?"

The team leader who know Cha Hae - in, ran quickly.

"Cha Hunter, wasn't this your day off?"
"Hello."

Cha Hae-in, who briefly exchanged greetings, carefully asked who was listening.

"Do...Sung-Jin-Woo Hunter here?"
"Sung?"

Bae had a suspicious look on his unexpected name.

"If it's Sung, he's on porter..."
"A porter?"

Cha Hae was surprised.

You mean he went into the gate?"

Bae nodded his head as if he was dumbfounded.

"Yes."

E-Rank Hunter volunteered for the A-Rank Dungeon?
He don't have dozens of lives.

'What are you thinking?'

Come to think of it, he was still standing with his weapon in the boss' room yesterday.
I didn't see it wrong, either.
There was another questionable thing.
Yesterday I thought it might be so, but on second thought, it was quite strange that a four-year Hunter career lost its way in the dungeon.

'I have to find out.'

I thought I should check with my own eyes what Sung-Jin-Woo is doing at Hunter's Guild.
If you want to know that, you have to go directly to Dungeon.
She was the vice president and incumbent S-Rank Hunter of Hunter's company.
Even if She wants to join the dungeon, no one will stop him.
The Cha Hae-in, who had been bothering to bite the tip of his thumb nail, made the decision.

"I have to go into the gate."
