Chapter 152 – 152. Dungeon Survival
152. Dungeon Survival
“Big.”
Gravity oppresses my body.
It feels like invisible hands extending from the ground grabbing my whole body and pulling me down.
I gritted my teeth and took a step forward. The speed at which my feet extended was slower than I thought.
‘Exactly… It’s quite difficult to withstand Han Harin’s gravitational field without using mana.’
Han Harin, who was about 7m away from me, held out her index finger toward me. A small black orb appears in front of her finger.
‘Gravity ball.’
It is called Gravity Ball in English.
A famous skill basically used by hunters with the ability to manipulate gravity. That little gravity sphere has a mass of at least 30 kg. It shoots it at high speed, so if it hits properly, it just won’t end.
‘My physical ability right now is at the top of E-class. If they get hit head-on, that’ll be the end.’
I raise Mana and run towards Han Harin avoiding the gravity sphere.
When using Mana, she can move without being greatly affected by the gravitational field because she has resistance to her ability.
Fluffy.
Han Harin’s body began to float upward. It will fly through the sky using gravity. It is fairly stable.
‘I heard that flying through the sky with gravity manipulation is very difficult because it requires fine adjustment of abilities…. I can see how much Han Harin practiced.’
Rising to a height of almost 10M, Han Ha-rin started shooting her gravity sphere at me.
I stepped on my steps and avoided all the gravity spheres without difficulty. The gravity sphere itself isn’t very fast, so it’s easy to dodge if her body moves properly.
‘So Han Ha-rin uses her gravity field to constrain her opponent’s movement before shooting her gravity orb.’
If you are caught in a gravitational field, avoiding the gravitational sphere becomes several times more difficult. On the contrary, if it is not caught in the gravitational field, it is nothing.
Grip support.
I held a blue thunderbolt in my hand and threw it at Han Harin. It’s less powerful and faster than shooting lightning with Manroe, but that’s what I’m aiming for.
‘Han Harin is dangerous because she could die if she gets hit by man-roe.’
Harin Han created a gravity shield to block my thunderbolt. I kept throwing her thunderbolts at her. Her body shakes as if she is daunted just to block her attack.
‘The fact that it needs fine control to fly means that if you lose concentration, you will fall down.’
After throwing her thunderbolt about 10 times, Han Ha-rin eventually fell from the air to her ground. I ran towards her.
The gravity sphere created in Han Harin’s palm becomes elongated and takes the shape of a sword. Then she swung her sword at me.
My sword meets the gravity sword. It’s just swinging a stick. There is no skill or anything at all.
‘It’s heavy, but……. It’s no big deal since I use mana.’
She puts the gravity sword aside and points the tip of her blade at Han Ha-rin’s neck.
Han Ha-rin clenched her fists and glared at me, then she relaxed her strength and spoke to me.
“…… I lost.”
“Don’t be too disappointed. Honestly, if it wasn’t for the power of mana, I wouldn’t have won so easily.”
“…….”
I mentioned Mana whenever I got a chance.
This is the reason she asked her to do her sparring in the first place. To further encourage Han Harin’s desire for mana awakening.
‘I have to encourage her desire for her awakening in this way so that she will be more active in the massage.’
Han Harin must become even more desperate. She’ll cling to her massage when she’s feeling like grabbing at a straw.
“Shall we end here? Or should we do it tomorrow?”
“Let’s fight again tomorrow.”
I nodded. Han Harin also has a desire to become stronger.
“You look tired. Shall we just take a break from the massage today?”
“It’s okay. They said that massages need to be done consistently to be effective.”
“It is.”
•••
Today is the summoning day of Dungeon Survival Reforged. Me, Han Harin, and Eun Sang-min went to a restaurant. The station seems to have rented a pretty decent restaurant for the day.
The schedule includes lunch at a restaurant and a briefing on dungeon survival.
“Well….”
As soon as we entered the restaurant, we felt the pressure from all sides. It’s a momentum that contains mana.
Eun Sang-min and I were able to pass it without a problem, but Han Harin was not. Her face turned pale in an instant.
‘The atmosphere is shit. What happened before we came?’
I deliberately stood in front of Han Ha-rin to block her momentum. Han Ha-rin made a better expression, but she soon bit her teeth. She looks resentful of herself as she can’t do anything about this situation.
“… What are you doing?”
Eun Sang-min was frowning and using the wide-area provocation. Some burst into laughter, and some glared at Eun Sang-min as if they were going to kill him.
I understand Eun Sang-min’s feelings. I opened the door and came in, but I received momentum mixed with mana. I was a bit annoyed too. This is an outright hostile act.
‘Looks like this happened while trying to figure out the skills of the contestants….’
Can not help it. Because I can’t turn those hunters into enemies here.
‘I know it’s good though. It’s a hunter that can use mana for more than 50 people.’
Just because she can use mana doesn’t necessarily mean she’s a C-rank Hunter. Because there may be hunters who have awakened mana even though they are E grade like me.
‘Those who need to be careful here… About 8 people.’
They look stronger than Eun Sang-min.
I walked over to a table that said ‘Gukcheon University Hunter Team’. ‘Gukcheon University Hunter Team’ is our team name. It was not a team name we decided on, but this name was made at the request of the school.
“Senior Harin. Senior Sangmin. Here’s our table. Come to work Especially Sangmin senior. Let’s not lose our strength for nothing.”
Harin just walked to the table, and Eun Sang-min glanced around for no reason and sat down at the table.
‘It’s fortunate that Eun Sang-min is under control.’
They seem to recognize me as their leader.
Afterwards, I ate a course meal and listened to a briefing from a character called an assistant director and writer of a broadcasting station. Beside them, an employee from the Hunter Association is watching over us with arms crossed.
“The dungeon where the dungeon survival begins is a dungeon provided by the association and is located in Gangneung….”
It doesn’t tell you exactly what environment the dungeon is in or what monsters appear.
All we know about the dungeon is that there are dozens of cameras installed, and that the Hunter Association employees with cameras will move and intervene in case of emergency.
“For your safety, energy protection is provided in Dungeon Survival Reforged. Energy Protect takes damage instead and consumes energy. When the energy of the energy protector is completely exhausted, you will be eliminated at that point and must go under the guidance of an association member. If you don’t stay still and move or attack even though your energy is completely depleted, you will be severely punished, so keep that in mind….”
It was evident that they paid special attention to safety.
‘It’s for broadcasting, so it must be the case.’
I felt bored after a while. Most of the explanations they say are written in documents after all.
‘When will Baek Ji-eun come? Other celebrities came, but why didn’t Baek Ji-eun come? It’s not like they don’t come because it’s the convocation day, right?’
Baek Ji-eun came. It was when two hours passed and the briefing session came to an end.
“Sorry. I was a little late because I had a lot of schedule. I’m still angry. I brought rice cakes as a gift like this.”
Brown wavy hair and a fitted suit. Baek Ji-eun exudes a sophisticated urban woman vibe. Just like her F-cup breasts, the top of her blouse is full.
‘He finally came.’
Baek Ji-eun smiled and started greeting the celebrities she knew. Her association staff also bowed her head in front of her.
Baek Ji-eun is a Class A Hunter. She is also a member of the Association. As she is a woman who is later evaluated to be able to become an S-class, there are also rumors that she is a candidate for the next generation of officers of the Korea Hunter Association.
‘There’s a saying that even if she doesn’t make it to S-class, she becomes an executive because her influence within the association is not normal.’
The source of information is the Internet.
Much of the information floating around the Internet is mixed with rumors. However, when information is collected and compared from various sites, rumors are filtered out and information that is reasonably good comes out.
‘It is true that she is her executive candidate. She follows what she’s been investigating, and her Hunter Association is pretty accommodating to her.’
And my purpose in her is her.
‘I should make at least one officer of the Hunter Association on my side.’
As the influence of the Hunter Association is not normal, making Baek Ji-eun mine will definitely be of great help.
I fiddled with the ‘absolutely hypnotic stickers’ I kept in her pocket.
‘I have to put this on Baek Ji-eun’s skin…. How to approach Well. It would be better to aim for a time when there are no people.’
You can’t put a sticker on Baek Ji-eun’s skin all of a sudden. If the hypnosis is successfully triggered by suddenly attaching her sticker, Baek Ji-eun’s attitude will change, so it is natural that she will be suspicious of people.
She said, ‘She’s a fan, but she can approach it naturally. It’s just that absolute hypnosis stickers can fail.’
Absolute hypnosis stickers are divided into success and failure depending on the other person’s mental strength. If your mental strength is high, there is a chance that you will not get caught.
‘The problem is that I don’t know the standard.’
Each person’s psyche is different.
‘What is certain is that Hunters have higher mental strength than ordinary people. The higher the grade, the higher the mental strength.’
This has research results. In spirit-related magic, the higher the level of the hunter, the stronger the mental power, so the mental magic doesn’t work well.
‘It’s obvious that S-class is impossible.’
Even if you can shake your mental power with torture, approaching S-class is dangerous in itself.
‘Baek Ji-eun hasn’t been in Class A for half a year. He can be said to be the lowest among the A-class. There is a possibility.’
I waited for an opportunity while chewing on the rice cakes Baek Ji-eun gave to the people.
If the opportunity doesn’t come up, she will pass by her and pretend to fall and put her sticker on her body.
“I’ll take a 10-minute break. Don’t worry, it’s really not long now.”
The Hunters sighed and started to escape. Even if you call it a briefing session, it is, in the end, to deliver cautions. I couldn’t help but be bored.
‘Baek Ji-eun?’
Baek Ji-eun also left her seat. She is not the way to go to the bathroom.
‘Is this an opportunity!’
I got up from the table.
“Uh. Are you going to the bathroom?”
Eun Sang-min, who was fiddling with his smartphone, asked me. I shook my head.
“I have an important phone call. I will go outside for a bit.”
I said that and headed in the direction Baek Ji-eun moved.
I don’t do stupid things that kill signs and move secretly. Baek Ji-eun is a Class A Hunter. Even if I clumsily hide my presence, I will find it right away. I would rather doubt it.
I confirmed that Baek Ji-eun was getting on the black van. It looks like you are taking a break in the car or there is something you forgot to bring.
‘Shall we approach by car? Not. We wait for it to come out and then we run into it by chance.’
I took the absolute hypnotic sticker out of my pocket. The size is slightly larger than my thumb. The surface of the sticker is densely written.
‘I even practiced writing small letters to write everything in this small place.’
The letters written on the sticker are as follows.
– He thinks of me as a childhood friend and sex friend who has been close to him since childhood.
– Follow my orders, whatever it is.
-I feel supreme pleasure in sucking my cock.
-If I put my cock in her pussy, I feel 10 times more sexual pleasure.
– Our relationship is a secret.
‘I was thinking of writing my name, but I wrote ‘I’. After all, I’m the one who puts the stickers on.’
I don’t think there will be that much flexibility.
I wonder what would happen if I put this sticker on myself…. It is too wasteful to write stickers with such an experimental spirit.
Drooling.
The car door opened and Baek Ji-eun came out. In her hand was a tumbler that she hadn’t seen before. It seems that he came to the car to get a tumbler.
Baek Ji-eun is coming this way. I took a deep breath and naturally left the wall. Then, when she saw Baek Ji-eun, she made a surprised expression, as if she had accidentally bumped into her.
“Baek, Baek Ji-eun?!”
“Ah yes.”
“I am a fan! Baek Ji-eun! Could you please sign one? Not. One handshake! Please!”
“A handshake is nothing.”
Baek Ji-eun held out her right hand. I also held out her right hand. On my right hand is a sticker with the back peeled off. If you shake hands, it will naturally stick to Baek Ji-eun’s palm.
‘If it doesn’t work, I’ll just take off the sticker and pop out.’
Kwak.
Took her hand A sticker was put on her palm. I looked at Baek Ji-eun with a nervous feeling.
Baek Ji-eun looked at me and frowned at her.
“What are you?”
