The Player Who Returned From The Apocalypse

Chapter 8

Seongjin bent down and picked up the item that came with the giant centipede.

Reddish dagger.

It looked like one of the centipedes’ legs.

“You’re lucky. You already got an item to use.”

If you see what she holds in her hand, she’s probably an item that she can use. Sungjin assessed this through the Hunter system.

[ Venom Dagger

The poison claws of the Giant Centipede.

It contains poison glands that secrete poison and is active, so you can make the opponent you stab into poison status.

Restrictions on use: Dagger Mastery (E)

Effect: Inflicts poison (small) effect on target, can use poison spray, agility +15 ]

“It’s fine.”

It’s not comparable to the items used in the S rank, but it’s not bad to use at the beginning. The items remaining in the inventory after returning are high-end items that can only be used by Grade A or higher. Until then, I needed a few items to use as a substitute, but it worked.

It was good that the attack was given a poison effect, but it was also good that the stats increased in the beginning. It feels good in the hand, and above all, it is light because it is a biological weapon rather than a metal.

“That would be the poison spray.”

Recalling the poison that the giant centipede spewed, I swung my dagger.

win-

Green poison spewed out from the dagger in the shape of a blade. The poison melts the ground a little, but enough.

It was difficult to instantly kill the opponent, but it seemed to be okay to check it from afar.

Kurreung-

The cave shook while testing this and that.

It was a harbinger of the gate closing.

[ Killed all monsters in the gate. ][ In addition, you gain 500 experience. ][ Gate closes after 1 hour. ]

The system message was also teaching this.

Clearing the gate gave additional experience points, but the amount was also poor. If it was an appropriate grade, I would have given him a hunting point, but there wasn’t even that.

“Even if it’s embarrassing, I want to move up to the next level as soon as possible.”

Sungjin put the dagger in his inventory and walked outside.

***

“Thank you.”

The first thing I saw when I went out was the police.

It didn’t take much time, but they kept standing here waiting.

The police handed over the phone and hunter license they had left when they entered the gate. When entering the gate, it was left to be broken when entering.

The trick did not work because the items that could be put into the inventory were also limited.

‘I wish smartphones could be made into items soon.’

The time has come to gradually improve existing items into items. In fact, the camera was improved as an item and the battle between monsters and hunters was filmed as a video.

Of course, the price is several times to several tens of times the original product, so I can’t even dream of it now when I can’t afford it.

“It looks like the gate has been cleared.”

“Yes. The magic stone is here.”

The police saw the gate closing and said, and Seongjin responded and took a magic stone from his inventory.

“…a lot?”

“Yes. There are a lot of monsters this time.”

The total number of manastones is twenty.

Considering that only about ten monsters appeared at the gate, it was a very large number.

Even at the gate where Seongjin just came out, there were only six monsters in total, including the giant centipede.

If so, where did the rest of the Manastone come from… .

‘Disposing of the mana stones obtained from the Hunter’s Gate is not bothersome.’

The Hunter Gate you entered to level up. It was a mixture of some of the large amounts of mana stones obtained there.

I was able to get more than a hundred mana stones from the Hunter Gate, but there was no place to dispose of them. Even if it was an F grade, it was clear that if an individual solved this level of manastone, he would be suspicious. There were no excuses for him.

So, what I came up with was to mix it up little by little when paying the mana stones after clearing the gate.

“You have subjugated this number of monsters at once and you are safe.”

“I was lucky.”

At Seongjin’s words, the police looked suspiciously at him. No matter how much I thought about it, it was hard to imagine that an F-class hunter would clear the gate alone.

‘It must be an E grade.’

sometimes there There are cases in which the level measurement is not properly performed due to the incorrect calculation of experience points in the Hunter system.

No matter how precise the measurement is, there are limits. There are cases where an experience bonus is attached to a title, and even if you hunt with a party, different experience points are given depending on your contribution.

It is unreasonable to measure the level considering all of them. When you enter the upper gate or dungeon, you can immediately see that you have upgraded, but there is no way to check it until then.

So, there were often people who used it to hide their grade-up and hunt more safely at the lower gate.

“You’re lucky. If another hunter had entered, it would have been a disaster.”

“….”

You can’t catch it I couldn’t figure out how to solve it just by doubt.

The police counted the magic stones as if they couldn’t keep Seong-jin silent, searched for Seong-jin’s license number, and recorded the number of magic stones submitted and how he turned the gate by himself.

In this way, the money is transferred and the hunter rank is measured.

“2 million won was transferred for the price of 20 F-grade mana stones. Please check.”

Sungjin confirmed that the money had been received through the text message service on his smartphone.

100,000 won per F-class manastone.

The total is 200 million won.

In the past, an average of 4 or 5 people worked together as a party, so they could only earn about 100,000 won by going around one gate, but solos make a lot of money as well.

“I checked it thank you.”

“Yes. You’ve worked hard.”

Leaving behind the police who looked at her with distasteful eyes, Sungjin headed to the subway station.

“Gate navigation.”

I went straight to the gate.

A total of eight F-grade gates cleared today. In the past, it was a really large number compared to clearing one or two places a day at most.

It was because he was strong enough not to worry about danger, so he quickly dealt with monsters, and fatigue was steadily recovering from the effect of the ‘Ring of Bonding’ brought from the future.

‘Thanks to you, most of the F-grade manastones have been processed.’

The reason I have wandered around F-grade gates so far was to dispose of F-grade magic stones.

But now, there is no F-grade manastone, and it is starting to fade.

I didn’t have time, so I decided to go around one last time and finish it.

Manipulate the unfolded map and enter the details you want to search for.

And I chose the closest gate.

[ You have selected the 15th Grade E gate (party). ]

This time to an E-class gate.

***

The E-class gate was farther than I thought. The higher the grade, the fewer the gates, so it was natural.

Later, when it was grade A, there were often situations where I had to go to another country because I was not in the country. Of course, there was also a top-level gate called a dungeon, but since it was a very dangerous dungeon, A-class hunters had to form a party.

Rather than going there, it was more profitable to be employed in a foreign country and earn money.

“It must be somewhere here.”

Seongjin moved to the place where the gate was and wandered around.

It was difficult to find the way because the place he came to this time was not a place he used to go often. I’ve been looking for it with my smartphone’s wayfinding app, but I couldn’t find GPS information well, probably because it’s outdated.

So I had no choice but to catch a good-looking person nearby and ask for directions.

“Hey, can I ask you the way? I want to go here.”

“Paldalsan… Are you going to the 15th grade E gate?”

“Yes. Yes.”

“You’re the same party member, too. I’m on my way there.”

It’s a coincidence. This time, when applying for the E-class gate, we applied as a party, not as an individual.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

There was also a small number of E-grade gates, but it was because the level seemed too high.

The current level is 98 by catching a giant centipede.

If you go through the E-class gate by yourself, you will pass level 100 and you will not be able to go through the E-class hunter gate.

And that also meant missing out on the first clear reward.

However, he could not give up the E-class gate. To open the E-Class Hunter Gate, you need an E-Class Manastone.

So, I decided to organize a party and spread the experience.

But I met the same party member here.

“You’re well aware that I’m going there as a hunter.”

“Hehe. They say there are a lot of people who go there on purpose. Even at such a late hour.”

“It’s like that. Do you think we’ve met before? I’m Seong-Jin Kim. I just got up to grade E this time.”

“This is another coincidence. I just became a hunter and this is my first attempt at an E-class gate. My name is Lee Sang-soo.”

it’s the first time He said that he didn’t feel like a hunter because his behavior was sloppy.

It was a case of Awakened and immediately became an E-class hunter. The world is not equal, so Awakened characters have a certain level and are Awakened.

And for the most part, these people are at risk now. They are often afraid of monsters they encounter for the first time.

The stats may be high, but they don’t have the right equipment. I don’t know if there is at least a skill, but it’s a luxury to expect something like that from an E-class.

‘Well, if it was the right guy, it would have been at a fixed party crafted by the guild, not a public party like this.

And he was like that before.

He went to a public party and caused a nuisance, and only stole the know-how. Then there were conflicts, and there were many cases where I almost died inside the gate.

Later, rumored to be the weakest, he was even put on a blacklist in the Hunter system that prevented him from forming a party.

‘How come I feel bad.’

And that feeling was often right.

Where the gate is going to appear. The same party members gathered where the police were standing in Paldalsan Mountain.

But none of them were very reliable. They all sat awkwardly apart and waited, as if they were meeting for the first time. Moreover, no one was seen wearing the correct item.

The same basic items as before.

“Damn it. Gongpat is like that.”

There is no such thing as a tank or a healer.
