Chapter 166: It’s A Golem
In the dungeon, Dong-hyun and Yu-jin surprisingly didn't experience any trouble at all. Only the two had to deal with the creatures at the tier-3 Portal Gate. They didn't think they would be able to do that. Although, it usually required a team of 30 to 50 hunters to do that.
Indeed, at first, Dong-hyun and Yu-jin had difficulty taking care of the creatures and beasts on their own. So, they decided to do it together. And as a result, without Ji-woo's help, they were able to kill dozens of these creatures and beasts.
Meanwhile, Ji-woo was busy exploring the entire dungeon area. Sometimes he would take the time to check on Dong-hyun and Yu-jin. He just needed to deviate from his path and use his Mana sense, so it wasn't too inconvenient.
Ji-woo was quite impressed with the abilities of the two hunters. What stood out the most was that the two of them never allowed themselves to be in a pinch. Whenever there was a situation where the number of the beasts and creatures would be excessive, they would separate themselves. They would rejoin later after the number of enemies had decreased since those monsters had to scatter to chase the hunters fleeing in two separate places.
In addition, Dong-hyun and Yu-jin's ability to use magic spells without being cast was pretty practical for stealth attacks. It saved them several times from being overwhelmed by the number of creatures and beasts they faced.
However, it was not all without flaws in the eyes of Ji-woo. The main thing that prevented the two of them to conquer the dungeon with only themselves was the weak damage from their magic spells. And also the limited Mana they have. So, magic spells with a large area of effect were not possible for the hunters.
The solution to that was to increase their Mana capacity. It could get through an increase in rank. Or have the help of magic items that increase their Mana or enhance their magic spells.
"Well, that problem can get solved later. The important thing is those two can gain experience and increase their stamina." Said Ji-woo.
Not waiting too long, Dong-hyun and Yu-jin finally meet the Dungeon Owner. It was a small creature wearing an oversized robe, so the creature's appearance wasn't visible to the naked eyes. The hood even covered the creature's face. The body size was about the size of a 12-year-old child. It made the being not feel scary or mighty at all.
Ji-woo, who was also there, noticed that Dong-hyun and Yu-jin seemed to be lowering their guard by seeing the creature's outward appearance.
'Geez! Just now, I was happy that they handled the dungeon situation calmly and smoothly with just the two of them. And now? They have forgotten the dangers that exist at all times. It seems that if things go well. It can foster a sense of overconfidence in both of them. Tsk!'
"Don't just stand there and stare. Start formulating your way of dealing with the creature. Don't get fooled by its cute appearance. That little thing has four times more Mana than the two of you combined."
Dong-hyun and Yu-jin came to their senses when they finished hearing Ji-woo's words. But, it was too late. A massive flame suddenly rose from the feet of the two of them. The fire was so big and fierce that an area several tens of meters away was also burned.
Ji-woo moved to a nearby hill because of the fire. He then sat cross-legged. He wasn't going anywhere anymore because he had explored the dungeon area after two days of wandering around. All the loot was in the Spatial Bag.
Meanwhile, the little creature floated in the air and was the same height as the hill where Ji-woo was.
Ji-woo realized that he got stared at by the little creature. "Just carry on. Don't mind me. They're both still alive down there." He said while waving his hand.
The little creature ignored what Ji-woo said and intended to use a magic spell. However, its focus got diverted because the massive fire devouring the ground shrunk and disappeared without exploding.
Dong-hyun And Yu-jin were alive. But they were in pretty bad shape. Some burn marks were visible on their skin that didn't get protected by their armor.
"Woah! I almost died!"
"You idiot! Don't exaggerate! We won't just die with fire like that. But, if we are too late to use fire to fend off the fire. Our injuries won't be this light."
Ji-woo smiled wryly. He couldn't understand why the two hunters still had time to talk about useless things. 'Also, why does Yu-jin suddenly have the same style as Dong-hyun now? Wasn't she the more closemouthed type and moved quickly to attack? Was she get influenced by Dong-hyun?'
Suddenly, the ground where Dong-hyun and Yu-jin were standing shook, causing cracks all around. Not long after, several magma creatures came to the surface. It was the same size as the two hunters.
"Summoned creature?" Yu-jin blurted out her words.
However, the magma beasts attacked the two of them swiftly before Dong-hyun could chat with Yu-jin again. The creatures' heat was so high that the place became drier than before, which had been devoured by fire.
On the other hand, it turned out that the creature used a summoned creature because it wanted to take care of Ji-woo. The Dungeon Owner raised both his hands up, and the sleeves of his robes got pulled down. The color of the creature's arms was visible, which was green.
Ji-woo saw the magic incantation process and chuckled. He understood that the little creature was not happy with humans. And try to take care of all three of them at once.
At the same time, a strong thunderbolt descended upon Ji-woo, who was sitting on the hill. However, he didn't panic in the slightest and tilted his head.
"You monster. You're eating more than you can chew."
Ji-woo raised his left arm, and the thunderbolt clashed with the palm of his hand. Instantly a bright light shone and dazzled the hill area.
Unfortunately, the little creature's efforts were in vain. Ji-woo didn't get injured at all. Even his arm had no trace of getting struck by a bolt of terrifying lightning at all.
The little creature looked angry, and its cloak floated up. Meanwhile, Ji-woo was not interested in doing anything and let the Dungeon Owner do as he pleased.
However, it became a fatal mistake because the little creature suddenly got hit by fire arrows and fire slashes from below. It was Dong-hyun and Yu-jin's attack that had overcome the magma beasts.
"Hehe! You arrogant bastard! You shouldn't distract yourself while fighting."
"That's right! The summoned creatures are easy to deal with. Just water and wind and they disappear into piles of stones."
Ji-woo became speechless at the chatter of the two hunters. He began to feel that Yu-jin was becoming more and more like Dong-hyun. And that was a bad sign for him.
Kiekh!
The little creature's angry scream caught the attention of the three humans. In addition, its appearance was also starting to show because its robe had a lot of torn marks from previous magic arrows and magic slashes.
"Huh!? A goblin? But how come it can fly?"
"A sorcerer?"
A small creature and a bald head. Along with a sharp nose, especially the green skin color. It also combined with the massive Mana capacity and all the magic spells that had got cast. It was a goblin sorcerer.
It was a crucial thing for Yu-jin and Dong-hyun. Now, the two of them knew that the Dungeon Owner was weak in close combat.
Yu-jin and Dong-hyun didn't have to think of many strategies or plans to deal with the goblin sorcerer. All they needed to do was suppress the little creature until it had no chance to use any magic to attack the two of them.
The goblin sorcerer would forget to widen his distance with Dong-hyun and Yu-jin when under such pressure. So, a close combat situation would get created.
And sure enough, when that situation occurred, the goblin sorcerer was beaten several times by the two hunters mercilessly. Luckily, the little creature always had time to use his shield magic to reduce the damage he suffered.
The goblin sorcerer gritted his sharp teeth. He then stuck his right hand into his chest, and green blood splattered out.
Dong-hyun and Yu-jin get surprised by that. They thought the creature gave up and committed suicide on the spot.
"The little creature's Mana hasn't disappeared completely. Don't put your guard down."
The two hunters clenched their fists after got reminded by Ji-woo. They prepared to attack while watching what the little creature was about to do. But, before the attack landed. The goblin sorcerer stomped his palms onto the ground that got stained with green blood.
The ground shakes and throws Dong-hyun and Yu-jin off balance. Bright light also emanated from where the goblin sorcerer was.
Boom!
A massive and powerful explosion occurred, causing a plume of dust to cover the area.
Dong-hyun and Yu-jin covered their faces. So, they didn't get hit by the gust of dust. They then waved their hands to wipe the dust off so they could see what was going on. And Ji-woo, who was on the hill, told them about it while sitting nice and resting his cheek on the palm of his right hand.
"It's a Golem."
