Return To Level Up

Chapter 42

It would be correct to think that the Death Strike skill possessed by a necromancer can be used almost infinitely.

‘No, even if it’s not, I think I’ll just die if I get hit with one shot over there, right?’

It was never considered as an opponent of the same level. He was such a powerful monster.

‘Isn’t it possible that only the level was lowered to a mess?’

That rumor seemed right.

Level means level. No matter how forcibly matched, their original ability or prestige does not go anywhere.

So, although he is on the same level as Ha-jin Kang, it was difficult to say that he was actually on the same level.

But in fact, it was the same with Hajin strong.

That was the key to passing this exam.

Hajin Kang is now level 282, but before he died, he was level 479.

It doesn’t seem like a big difference, but considering that it is difficult to raise the level as the level goes up, and the difference in price felt per level increases, it was by no means a small difference.

And it wasn’t just that.

Ha-jin Kang had the experience of fighting fiercely for a long time. Hajin Kang was an existence with a complex personality that could not be expressed only with level, ability, and skill.

And that was the driving force that allowed me to continue to dodge the relentless attacks of that commander now.

Aww! Aww! Aww!

The hammer fell one after another, and Ha-jin Kang barely avoided it.

While avoiding dozens of attacks, Ha-jin Kang explored the gaps in the commander’s warrior.

There was only one gap I had found so far, the moment the hammer hit the floor.

The shock made my body stiff for a while, but since it was a fleeting moment, it wasn’t something that could be called a weakness.

But right now, I had no choice but to aim for it.

He even tried to use a healing skill, but it had no effect at all because the Spirit Warrior was not an undead unlike his appearance.

‘I mean do it.’

Hajin Kang realized that this was a test.

You have to pierce the gap at the moment you hit the hammer.

‘Is this made to break?’

If Ha-jin Kang was not a regressor, he wouldn’t even have a chance to find his weakness.

Hajin Kang calmed his mind. In the meantime, the Hammer of the Commander-in-Chief was constantly aiming at the strong Ha-jin and fell like lightning.

Aww! Aww! Aww!

Kang Ha-jin avoided it at close intervals, but calmly ruled his mind like Myeong-gyeong Jisoo.

Of course, it didn’t go well at first. However, as time went on, his heart grew more and more calm, and he was able to dodge the necromancer’s hammer while maintaining his composure.

The Commander-in-Chief made only one slash attack.

But it has been transformed in various ways. By twisting the angle slightly or by shifting the timing.

So, it was more difficult to identify the gap, but Ha-jin Kang was able to capture the gap perfectly from a certain moment.

The gap, which had only been a fleeting moment, gradually widened.

It’s not that the gap has really grown, it’s that the gap that Ha-jin Kang recognizes has widened.

Until then, Kang Ha-jin continued to dodge the commander’s hammer and never attempted an attack.

Then, the moment the gap widened greatly, he quickly drew his sword.

The sword broke through the gap in an instant and came out because it cut off the momentary moment.

Fu Chemicals!

Aww!

A dark energy exploded from the neck of the commander who was pierced by Ha-jin Kang’s sword.

And the commander’s hammer hit the floor.

The Commander-in-Chief, with his hammer on the floor, stood still, and only the dark energy poured out.

As the dark energy poured out, the spirit warrior’s body gradually began to glow.

It was as if the shells surrounding the light had become dark and scattered.

Soon, the commander-in-chief turned into a mass of light. And that mass of light poured down on Kang Ha-jin.

‘I have a skill!’

It was the very light that gave him the skill. And the skill obtained was [Warrior Movement]. It is the same skill that Hwang Soo-young obtained, but it was a skill that raised agility rather than strength.

Ha-jin Kang stood for a moment, checked the newly acquired skill, and walked to the passageway open in front.

For some reason, he seemed to know how this awakening dungeon was structured.

* * *

Before entering the second room, Ha-jin Kang organized some of his thoughts.

The second stone chamber seen from the passage was also the same as the first.

This was also a place where skills were stored and dropped off.

‘The problem is that we prepared for the exam together.’

But looking back, it was an opportunity rather than a problem.

an opportunity for growth.

While facing the commander in the first stone chamber, Ha-jin Kang trained to find gaps and avoid fast and powerful attacks.

And in the end he even learned to pierce.

I’m still not completely used to piercing, but if I try a few more times, it’ll be as powerful as a skill.

Perhaps, this awakening dungeon seems to train the awakener in that way and pass on the skill if he completes it perfectly.

No, I’m sure.

Hajin Kang stepped into the stone chamber.

There was no reason to hesitate. Isn’t it something to be thankful for for training and passing on skills?

Paintings and writings engraved on the wall began to shine, and soon they came together to form a monster.

This time too, he was a commander.

He had the same stats, only the equipment and skills he was holding were different.

“shield?”

This time, the commander was holding a huge square shield.

[Death Barrier, Death Power]

The barrier of death was the shield skill of the necromancer. It was a skill that sent magical power to the shield and emitted a powerful shock.

The power of death was also a skill that supplemented magical power.

As soon as the Commander-in-Chief appeared, he charged with his shield in front.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Kang Ha-jin saw it and tried to avoid it. But at that moment, the shield widened dramatically.

There was no room for Kang Ha-jin to escape because of the wide winds on both sides.

Hajin Kang clenched his teeth and concentrated his magic on his shoulder. Just crash and you’re done. Instead of hitting head-on, you have to twist your body at the moment of impact to release even the slightest amount of shock.

Aww!

Blood spurted from his mouth and nose.

He obviously twisted, barely letting out any of his strength. The commander twisted the shield slightly at the moment of collision, preventing Ha-jin strong from preparing.

A huge shock engulfed his entire body.

Kudang Tang!

Hajin Kang rolled over the floor. But he got up right away and prepared for the next attack by the commander.

As expected, he did the same attack again. He rushed forward with his shield in front.

His whole body felt like it was going to break, but it wasn’t to the point of dying.

Hajin Kang clenched his teeth and put magic on his shoulder.

‘this time!’

He did not take his eyes off the shield until the end. Poor defense doesn’t work. You have to focus and make sure you stop it.

Aww!

This time it succeeded. But he wasn’t perfect. Hajin Kang flew back again.

The commander-in-chief pushed Ha-jin Kang without giving him a break.

The moment he loses his mind, he dies. Ha-jin Kang trained and re-forged his mind as if he was riding on his blade.

Aww!

He drained it properly. But he wasn’t perfect either. He wasn’t curled up behind him, but his shock was seeping through his body.

With the shield in between, they became close to each other.

The spirit warrior used that short interval to slash his shield and push it.

Aww! Aww! Aww!

Hajin Kang clenched his teeth and had no choice but to block his shield with his whole body. He naturally concentrated his magic whenever he collided with the shield.

Whether to twist the RBI or concentrate his magic power, there was no mind.

Still, Hajin Kang did it.

Gradually, he got used to the shedding of the shield. No, he used his magical power to twist the wall of death itself and start pouring out RBIs.

Then the burden on the body was significantly reduced.

Now it was time to find the void. If you stay like this forever, you will be the one who will run out of magic and die.

Tung! Tung! Tung! Tung!

From some point on, the sound of the shield and Hajin Kang collided differently.

And from then on, Ha-jin Kang’s expression became much more comfortable. Her heart calmly sank like Myeonggyeong Jisoo.

The gaps were starting to come into my eyes.

Probably, if he had met this guy first without dealing with the commander with a hammer earlier, he would never have been able to find any gaps.

He was able to find the hole right after he had completed enough hole-finding training.

Because there was no visible gap.

The moment the shield and Ha-jin Kang’s shoulders collided, the commander’s magic was shaken.

It wasn’t just shaking, it was shaking enough to infiltrate sharp magic into it.

No, rather than shaking, it would be more accurate to say that the magic is scattered and a hole is created.

Tung! Tung! Tung! Tung!

It repeated several collisions, accurately checking for gaps and timing them.

Shield warriors did not have to repeat the same thing. It’s just a powerful attack by pushing the shield, but there are a lot of changes in it.

Tung! Tung! Tung! Tung!

Hajin Kang considered all of that. At one point, the hole in his magical power felt the size of a watermelon.

At that moment, he indifferently plunged magic into it.

Tung!

Awkward!

Two sounds rang out almost simultaneously.

And black energy poured from the commander’s neck. the attack was successful.

Ha-jin Kang took a step back and waited for the commander to turn into light and come to him.

He got the second skill.

It was [the power of a warrior]. It was the same skill that Hwang Soo-young acquired.

* * *

After that, Ha-jin Kang met a bare-handed commander and acquired a skill called [Warrior’s Patience] to grow his stamina.

And he was able to train to mix magic with strength, agility, and stamina.

It was a training to instantaneously raise the ability itself by using magical power.

Next, in the stone chamber, I met a commander with a bow.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

He shot an arrow made of magical power, and he was able to train to neutralize the opponent’s magic.

He almost died, but he gained a very valuable experience.

And he acquired the magic growth skill called [Source of Warrior].

A ghost appeared in the next stone chamber. A spirit warrior with no physical substance appeared and tried to take Kang Ha-jin’s body.

Unlike before, it was very easy to handle. Because Hajin Kang had unusually strong mental power compared to other abilities.

There, he obtained a mental power growth skill called [Spirit of Warrior].

And after that, nothing appeared in the stone chamber, and he simply passed on the skill.

What I got there was [growth]. It was the same skill that Kim Ji-hye and Lee Ji-young acquired.

Then there was the last stone chamber.

As soon as Kang Ha-jin entered, he could not hide his absurd feeling.

Because all the five commander warriors I’ve faced so far have appeared.

There was nothing to gain or lose from this. It was just a fierce struggle.

I fought until my whole body was covered in blood.

But it was a really tough fight. The command warriors were completely different from before.

The level was still forced to match Ha-jin Kang, but he didn’t do a set attack like before.

Literally, he was fighting five commanding warriors, each with different weapons.

The command warriors were fast and strong. Also, the fight itself was good.

Hajin Kang fought with all the skills he had. But it was unsatisfactory.

One by one, wounds were formed on the body of the spirit warriors, and the body weakened by emitting black energy.

However, the condition of Ha-jin Kang was incomparable.

Hajin Kang persisted in fighting even when his stamina and magical power were gradually depleting.

She continued to inflict damage to the spirit warriors, attacking by giving flesh and taking bones, and succeeding in a fatal blow without missing an opportunity.

Still, it was a defeat.

The spirit warriors also had at least one limb flew away, and a lot of black energy escaped and their strength weakened, but if they continued like this, there was nothing but death.

Ha-jin Kang endured until the very end and wore an angel’s ring.

All the wounds disappeared in an instant, and his magical power and stamina rose to full.

Hajin Kang is in a much better state than before he first fought these command warriors.

Since then, the face of the fight has changed 180 degrees.

Hajin Kang began to overwhelm the weak and wounded spirit warriors.

His command warriors fell one by one, and he was able to win the victory.

Again, the body was shattered.

The body of the five spirit warriors turned to light, and the light came together and poured on Ha-jin Kang.

Ha-jin Kang closed his eyes and enjoyed the refreshing power that entered his body.
