57 – My Traits Are Somewhat Cheating

– Agility +5

I moved for about 5 minutes feeling my body become lighter with Ran’s buff, and I was able to encounter a group of monsters early in the day. Unfortunately, it wasn’t Hobgoblin.

I gave a hand signal to the rear.

(20 Regular goblins? Rather good.)

To say that Yeonhee was good did not mean that it was good for warming up. He must be thinking of catching them and using them as bait.

Yeonhee whispered and signaled, and the summoned beasts rushed forward all at once.

‘There’s no need to use bombs for these guys.’

Tata- that- Squeak!

Kehehehe!

I used the acceleration I was running to lightly cut my neck. Then, the goblin’s neck staggered at an improbable angle, and blood spurted out like a fountain.

‘It’s still not enough to cut it all at once.’

Pupuk!! Slap!

Kieek!!

After killing all 20 goblins in less than a minute, we quickly began collecting silver and other spoils that the goblins carried.

(Look carefully. Insert it all at once in this direction, break the angle! If you cut it as if pulling it downwards…)

I showed the summoned beasts how to slaughter them once, and the others except Fatty began to imitate them to some extent.

Dung-

Thung, who had the bewildered expression typical of kobolds, took out something from the sack on his back, perhaps thinking that he should make a contribution as well.

“Wow- Lesser magic stone! Thank you fat.”

hehehehe-

‘That son of a b*tch, don’t you just want to fill it with magic stones because you don’t want to work?’

With reasonable suspicion, I put all the goblin bones I needed into my inventory, filled a puddle with the blood from the by-products, and settled down some distance away in a hidden state.

In the nearby bushes, Yeon-hee and other summoned beasts are widely spread and hiding.

‘When is it coming…’

Hobgoblins are known to treat normal goblins like their slaves. Being a greedy race, if they know that their belongings are damaged, they will come running right away. This is a well-known fact among hunters.

Ah… My legs are numb…

About 10 minutes later, when Yeonhee was tossing and turning, five hobgoblins, noticeably larger than goblins and with bodies closer to red than green, appeared.

‘I don’t see a guy with a poison needle. Good.’

There was a messy beard on his chin that looked like it had never been trimmed in his life, and his ears, which grew more horizontally and pointedly, twitched.

Paralarak-

Their ears moved quickly up and down, indicating that they had noticed the existence of the clumsily hidden summons.

But I was on the verge of detonating the bomb I had already prepared in stealth.

[Dagger Throw]

[Skull Bomb]

Puppuppuppuppup!!

Kwaak!!

They got the first attack with a bomb exploding in their head, and they lost a lot in that moment.

From noble mtl dot com

Not to mention that he suffered a hard-to-recover injury to his head. The advantages of attacking first, such as mental confusion due to sudden attacks, blockage of vision due to explosions, slowing of movement due to pain, and loss of judgment due to anger, were too great.

Chahyahya!!

And if the summoned beasts who ran after them rushed all at once into a one-on-one situation.

Kheuk ㅡ!

The hunt ended in vain, to the point where the steam leaked out a little.

“Wow… I didn’t do anything…”

Yeonhee put the arrows back into her inventory, making a slightly complicated expression.

Since she has always contributed significantly to battles as an archer, her current situation may seem unfamiliar. But soon she will adapt to this battle, and she will find answers to what to do.

– You have killed the Hobgoblin!

– Acquired a small amount of experience.

– Acquired a low-level magic stone. Manastones are moved to the summoner’s inventory.

– Attribute [Kleptomaniac] Is activated.

– Randomly steals Hobgoblin’s skills.

– Acquired the skill [Degraded Poison Gland]!

Degraded venom glands

– Creates a small venom gland that continuously eats up health.

– In case of poisoning, 0.01% Of Max HP will decrease every second.

‘Did you use this to make a poison needle? It’s not some poisonous snake, it’s absurd.’

This was the first time I learned that Hobgoblins produce their own poison in the first place.

When I tried to use the acquired skill right away, something like a small tube began to form deep inside my mouth.

‘Ah, why bother, why does it appear in the corner of your mouth?’

When I put my hand in my mouth and removed the created tube, a green venom gland the size of half a little finger was revealed.

‘Where do I put this…’

I decided to put it in my inventory and think about it later. Whether you throw it or use it for anything, it seemed like it would be useful. However, the venom gland he took out quickly dried up and soon became crumbly.

‘Hmm – Does it become useless if it is separated from the body? Then it’s understandable that you haven’t figured out the hobgoblin’s venom glands until now. If the organs are destroyed like this at the same time as death…’

Perhaps they have their own way of extracting poison directly from the venom glands in their mouths?

‘Sup- It would be nice if it just merged with the polluted breath-‘

As I was thinking about that, a message suddenly came to my mind.

– [Degraded Poison Gland] Is fused with [Contaminated Breath].

Tainted Breath Lv.4

– Spreads contaminated breath with poison/paralysis effects in a 39m radius centered on the caster.

– In case of poisoning, 0.02% Of Max HP is reduced every second.

– The longer the exposure time, the higher the effect.

– You can choose between poison and paralysis effects.

‘That’s right! It seemed like it would come together somehow. Level up 3 at once? The range has been widened by 9m, and the effect of reducing HP has doubled. Can I use this a bit more?’

Anyway, due to the nature of the polluted breath, it is effective only when fighting in a limited place for a long time.

‘I’ll have to use it often to raise my experience.’

Chuleup!

Chahyahya!

Lizard No. 1 And Knottooth were whispering together even after the battle, and it was amazing that they got along so well even though they were of different races.

‘The activity of the Lizard troops is great. I’ll have to raise my rating.’

Thanks to No. 1, The distance between the formations was gradually maintained and the Lizard units, which moved in an orderly manner, were gradually increasing their combat power.

In a way, it was as if we were fighting a battle with the top 10 hunters in the E-class avant-garde position. So the battle is bound to end happily.

Churrup-

And Lizard No. 1 Is already comparable to Class D in terms of physical ability.

“Ilwolah, can I move faster?”

Nod-

This is a reasonable decision. Even I took a conservative approach before fighting, but now I have come to the conclusion that if only the skull bomb is successful as the first attack, I can overwhelmingly take the battle. I needed to be a little more active.

And what makes that possible is probably thanks to the sensory ability to detect the enemy first and the stealth ability to secretly approach and take the first attack.

“Let’s move.”

Bagagak Bakak-

In storage : 49/54

Continue to manufacture bombs with one hand while moving, and if a monster is caught by the sensory wave, attack first with stealth + skull bomb and then siege.

Twice an hour, sometimes three battles. We went on a winning streak with the same formula.

– Your level has risen!

—–

[Skull Bomber Sun Moon – Lv.28]

Strength: 60 Agility: 74 (+3) Stamina: 71

Wisdom: 68 (+3) Power: 90 Resistance: 7

Sense: 34 Restoration: 20 (+3)

—–

The level has risen in as many as 10 battles, and the need for increased recovery has been invested in making bombs.

‘I don’t want runes, but don’t they also have characteristics to take away? I’ve killed over 15 of them.’

Well, what kind of powers can Hobgoblins have? There was a high possibility that there was nothing other than the special characteristic of the goblin tribe that gets stronger when united.

mana: 33/90

‘It should be stable when it recovers about 30 per hour. There’s no choice with 20.’

Still, the speed of magic recovery was not keeping up with the amount used.

‘It’s a problem if I meet monsters too often. Let’s adjust it a bit.’

The sun rose above our heads, and after moving to a terrain with an advantage in defense, Yeon-hee settled for a late lunch with a convenience store sandwich.

‘There are no known hidden spaces in this dungeon, and there are no particularly suspicious places.’

I was moving to the basement, hoping to find the blue-eyed guys again, but it didn’t come to much.

Bagakgak Bagak-

In storage: 29/54

“How many bombs do you have left?”

Even Yeon-hee couldn’t figure out how many bombs I had, so I asked about it from time to time. Diligent communication between team members is a very important thing in a dungeon, and in that respect, Yeon-hee was a solid model student.

“Doesn’t hobgoblins come together more often than I thought? I heard that groups of more than 10 often appear… Ah!”

‘If you say that, I’ll definitely meet you…’

As expected.

The number of hobgoblins we met after wasting an hour after eating was 17.

Yeonhee hurriedly covered her mouth and gave me an apologetic expression.

‘If that’s the number, I can finish this battle well and leave right away.’

Those wearing something like a tube around their necks are the type that use poison needles, and there were three of them.

‘If you kill those first, it won’t be too difficult. The combination of stealth and bombs seems like a real scam to me.’

Sweet-

Now my body moved before my words.
