chapter 11
Episode 11
It’s a little while to be delighted with the huge jackpot.
There were several problems with eating this bonanza right away.
First of all, I am very tired from fighting.
‘There are a lot of potions, so I just fill them up.’
Even the elite Skeleton Soldiers, who will be a source of strength, cannot be summoned.
‘Although I can fight without the skeleton disease.’
The most important problem of all.
‘I still don’t know what lies down here.’
Fafnir’s analysis plan should always look at the opponent.
It was impossible to see the enemy and attack without any information.
‘Although I can hunt with the controls I’m used to.’
Fafnil was troubled.
One week left.
It seems like a lot, but in real time, it’s only about two days.
‘Should I believe in myself and take on the challenge?’
A moment in which many worries have passed.
Fafnir, who was looking at the entrance, stepped out.
‘But I have to stop here.’
This ideal is truly an adventure.
I don’t know if there is ‘heavenly luck’ like Flush.
I only know the development of the novel.
If I went in now, when there were no other advantages, I would only lose money.
‘I’ll start with maintenance first.’
When the key was removed, the door closed as if it had been opened.
It seemed like I wouldn’t have to worry about others finding the second floor.
‘I can’t leave it alone for too long, though.’
After a week, the first finder buff disappears.
In order to pick up a mulberry, you must clear it at least once before that.
‘Then now… … .’
Mealtime ends here.
It was time to digest the food and build muscle.

By luck, the world in the game world is legal for trading items in cash.
By paying a small fee, it was said that in-game content could be cashed in without any restrictions.
Naturally, trading sites sprung up like mushrooms after rain.
Among them, Kang-Han Kim chose Horizon Market.
It was a site that the main character always used in the original novel.
“Hmm”
Kim Kang-han opened My Page of Horizon Market.
-Heylon’s robe: 300,000 won (sold)
-Imp Ring: KRW 600,000 (sold)
-Bloodthirsty Slayer’s Sword: 350,000 won (on sale)
-Silver ring: KRW 130,000 (sold)
– Steel Shield of the Byron Knights: 20,000 won (on sale)
‘As expected, accessories and clothes are selling well.’
The silver ring and steel shield were dropped by two of the trio.
Since there are so many types of weapons and armor, they didn’t sell well unless there were exceptional options.
‘I can’t help it, I have to use these two separately.’
The amount that came out like that is 1.03 million won.
After deducting taxes and fees, I had 900,000 won left.
Kim Kang-han withdrew half of them in cash.
‘This should be enough for the minimum cost of living on the moon.’
That’s not a lot for living expenses.
However, I had to take into account that this was a low-level punishment.
‘Compared to that time, this much is nothing.’
The mid-to-late half was full of level 400 players.
At the time, rankers called name players made hundreds of millions or billions of dollars in monthly profits.
‘Well, aside from profit, it’s true that I have to reach the pinnacle to do the author’s quest.’
After completing the refund application, Kim Kang-han opened another window.
An overseas site that sells various nutritional supplements and health foods.
Kim Kang-han ordered two sets of supplements containing magnesium and vitamins.
‘It’s important to take care of Oh Jin-hwan’s health.’
In the past, during his active career, Kim Kang-han did not pay much attention to his body.
As a result, sluggishness and aging curve due to poor physical strength.
Health once lost never returned again.
‘I started with a good body at best, but I can’t ruin it this time either.’
Even if it’s not a quest given by the author.
In order to become the pinnacle of the game, what you need to take care of is your health!
‘The health checkup results will come out soon, so I’ll have to keep taking care of my body after that.’
If I can afford it, I’m thinking of getting a separate gym training!
‘It’s not too late to think about it after receiving the test results… … .’
Kim Kang-han opened the Horizon Net site.
-Information and tips when attacking Giant Mantis (KRW 300,000)
-Level 70~75 hidden dungeon location and information (2,500,000 won)
*This post cannot be viewed with the current rating.
‘Is my level an outsider level?’
Horizon Net divides its members into several levels.
Those who just joined like Kim Kang-han have the lowest outsider rating!
In order to use the content, you had to purchase the basic service (89,000 won per month) and raise the level.
‘It’s a decent package price, but… … It’s a place worth using.’
80% of members using the net use information at this basic level.
Kim Kang-han, who purchased the service, looked for information related to dungeons.
The results were astonishing.
-Byron, Catacombs search results 0
‘This… … .’
There are at least 10 million members using Horizon Net.
80% of them don’t have this information in the search field they use.
In other words, this dungeon… … .
‘Advanced dungeons that are not caught by 80% of the information network… … !’
I expected it from the first discoverer buff, but this dungeon was more amazing than I thought.
There was just one problem.
‘In the original novel, the main character moved by receiving a different quest.’
Future flushes benefit enormously from robbing whole orcs.
That was about 8 months later.
But then why didn’t Flush find this place?
‘I guess luck made the decision.’
This dungeon doesn’t have that kind of merit.
Or an enemy that is so powerful that Flush can’t handle it.
‘No matter how big the profit is, if I don’t get it, it’s an empty chant.’
A hidden dungeon with difficulty enough to make you shake your head.
The corners of Kim Kang-han’s mouth went up.
‘It must be fun.’
Kim Kang-han immediately changed the search term.
-Attack all floors 1-5 of the Armada Ossuary (50,000 won)
– Attack on the 2nd floor of Corvo Magul (30,000 won)
Purchasing information on cemetery-type dungeons similar to Catacombs!
Most of them were low-level dungeons, so the price was not too expensive.
‘After the skeleton, the elite skeleton. Or reinforced zombies, bats, and skeleton orcs appear.’
The intention to identify and prepare for similar cases.
It was the same principle as studying past exam questions when taking an exam.
In the meantime, one explanation caught Kim Kang-han’s attention.
‘Usually, there are more strengthened ones in similar series, but if it’s a dungeon related to a specific NPC, monsters related to it will appear… … .’
Come to think of it, there was something similar among Hilde’s words.
‘The high priest was trying to say something.’
Shall I explain the situation to Hilde?
‘We’ll be hunting together anyway, so we can only share information. I’ll have to connect tomorrow and put in a call.’
After thinking, Kang-Han Kim changed the window.
‘Then I’ll buy Byron City information on my own.’
A search for the city of Byron in the information category brought up several items.
Kim Kang-han, who looked at one of them for a while, frowned.
‘16,000 won.’
It wasn’t too expensive.
But when I tried to click the buy button, I felt like I was losing something.
‘… … Rather than spend that money, I’d order a chicken and eat it.’
Kim Kang-han opened another window and ordered the necessary items.
Consumables for reviving a reverse summoned Elite Skeleton.
And they were materials for making things that might be needed to attack the second floor.
-Payment has been completed.
Kang-Han Kim, who saw the message, thought.
‘I’ll be busy again starting tomorrow.’
A huge experience level increase is a bonus!
The corners of Kim Kang-han’s mouth went up.
* * *
next day.
As soon as Fafnil connected, he checked for new messages.
[Title: Purchased items are waiting for pickup.]
-Sender: Wings of Hermes-Cronie in charge of Baran Kingdom
-Recipient: Fafnil
-Contents: Purchased Black Higanbane x8, Troll’s Blood x30, Red Poison Worm’s Arbitrary x12, Shagar’s Claw x100, Living Dead’s Heart x3, Mandrake Root x5, Soul Restoration Stone x1, We will send you 10 bottles of human blood, 10 bottles of pepper and chili powder mixture, 200 bottles of holy water, 5 pieces of bamboo, 10 trap nullification scrolls, 10 detect field scrolls, 30 dungeon exploration torches, and 5 dungeon exploration ropes. .
‘As expected, Hermes’ wings, the performance is certain.’
Wings of Hermes.
It is the most outstanding delivery agent guild in Horizon.
A place where countless users, including rankers, belonged to, and hundreds of times more users used it.
It was they who had both the best safety and speed with that much power.
Although the fee is a bit high, it was well worth it.
‘If you trade for a long time, the rating goes up, so it’s better to open it in advance.’
It was all the more so when I thought of the future growth of this guild.
‘There’s little time left, so I’ll have to take care of things before then.’
I sent a message to Hilde, and after a while I got a call.
-Hilde: Dungeon hunting?
-Fafnil: Yes, how about finding a good dungeon and hunting together?
After a while, Hilde sent a reply.
-Hilde: It’s a really good suggestion… … . sorry.
-Hilde: The project was suddenly caught… … . I don’t know if it’s for a while, but I don’t think I can go to dungeon hunting.
Hilde’s refusal due to busy situations in reality!
‘this.’
Fafnir clicked his tongue.
‘There is no talent like Hilde when it comes to attacking the Catacombs… … .’
Hilde’s control is the highest level that even Fafnir admits is worth using.
If we had been together this time, we would have been able to attack the second floor comfortably.
‘I can’t help it. Should I look for other party members?’
In this case, being a Necromancer class doesn’t matter too much.
If you announce that you have discovered a hidden dungeon, party requests will come like clouds.
But there was one other problem.
‘If you solve this kind of information, someone will definitely have other thoughts.’
as well as the distribution of rewards.
If you sell the information about this dungeon to a giant guild, Fafnil becomes a dog that chases chickens from that moment on.
An overwhelming loss compared to saving party members.
‘He’s a reliable party member… … . Should I contact the archer named Bane last time?’
It wasn’t as much help as the monk Hilde.
Still, if it was Bain, he belonged to the axis of strong enough.
‘Then I act as bait… … .’
A thought popped into Fafnil’s mind.
‘Wait, can’t I just walk around alone?’
In the first place, he became a necromancer to cover all parts by himself.
But now you’re looking for a party?
‘If you think about it, this is not a crisis, but an opportunity.’
If Hilde was there, it would be very efficient, but even if it wasn’t, there were many ways.
‘good.’
Now that you’ve made your decision, it’s time to act.
First, Fafnir visited the Necromancer Guild once more.
“Hello, senior.”
“Hey, junior. Is your job okay?”
“Thanks. There is something I want to ask you more than that.”
If you were Gould, the necromancer who stayed in Byron City, you might know the story about the catacombs.
“Hmm, the old story of the catacombs?”
“Yes, I actually heard the priests at the temple say something similar… … .”
“There is a legend.”
Gould glanced at Fafnir and continued.
“Originally, I didn’t tell anyone, but since you asked, I’m telling you specifically.”
– Your likability is over 30.
– The quest ‘Information Charge’ has been omitted.
Thanks to the high affinity, I was able to listen to the legend without any conditions.
“According to what I’ve heard, there was a fight between the angels of Thor and a forgotten god in this land in the past.”
“Angels of God?”
“Yes, the fight between Thor’s angels and the forgotten god ended with Thor’s victory due to the betrayal of his former followers.
A short video passed in front of Fafnil’s eyes.
A fight between a single god and several angels surrounding him.
The ground turns upside down and the sky collapses with just that impact.
The battle of the gods continued for 7 days and nights!
It was the betrayal of a warlock who was a servant of the Forgotten God, and it ended in the defeat of the Forgotten God.
God collapses with several swords stuck in it.
Angels tearing his body apart and burying him in the ground!
“It is said that the messengers of the gods sealed the forgotten god under the ground and built a temple above it. That is the current Thor Temple.”
“okay.”
If Catacombs B2 had anything to do with that legend, it certainly deserved to be out of luck for Flush.
“If one day someone incredibly strong destroys Thor’s temple here, he might be able to get a piece of a forgotten god or something.”
– Acquired clues to the quest ‘Thor’s Temple Attack’.
“How is it, did your curiosity clear up?”
“Yes, I will work harder in the future.”
“Yes, if you have any questions or problems, come to me anytime. You’re my favorite junior, so you can tidy up.”
“thank you.”
After hearing the hidden story, Fafnir learned the Skeleton Soldier Summoning Skill without abandoning it.
You can’t unlock all the traps in the dungeon.
Instead, it recruited people to meet it.
“Then I’m off to follow the teachings of darkness.”
Now I had to head straight to my next appointment.
A man with a backpack was waiting in the square.
“Fafnil-nim?”
“Yes, I am Fafnir.”
“The amount was paid on the site… … . Get your supplies here.”
Receive the resurrection materials and various items of the elite skeleton soldiers!
‘It arrived exactly at the time I sent it in advance.’
Indeed, the wings of Hermes.
In the original novel, I felt like I knew why the main character used it at the expense of expensive labor costs.
“Then I’m… … .”
The delivery man turned around.
It was then.
Fafnil’s eyes scanned the scruffy back of the courier.
“What did it look like?”
“This one?”
The delivery man sighed and explained.
“Don’t talk. I was crossing the mountain ahead of me, and suddenly hundreds of orcs appeared and chased after me.”
Hundreds of Orcs relentlessly chasing them!
It was a shame because the deliveryman’s movement skills were excellent, but it was a dangerous situation where he almost died after losing his goods to the orcs.
“There should be only one scouting post for orcs around here… … .”
“is it so? The Orcs I met had battalions encamped. There must be something wrong.”
Utcha. The delivery man carrying the backpack said.
“Then I will go again. The next delivery remains.”
“Are you okay?”
“This is it, well, if you drink the potion, it will be done in no time.”
The delivery man walks away with gunfire.
‘The number of orcs is increasing… … .’
Everything within Horizon must have consequences.
It seems that it was not simply because of the catacombs that this city was a honey land.
‘I’ll check that later.’
Now is the time to cross the huge mountain in front of you.
Fafnir opened his inventory.
‘Should I start preparing now?’
