Maxed Out Leveling Novel

Chapter 100

35. In the Fog (2)

Cha Shin Hyeon’s expression hardened.

The widening of the rift was a concern, not a surprise. I had come to check it out because I expected it to some extent.

Whether it is a crack in the wall of a building or a crevice in the rock, the crack once opened is bound to grow. Even if it happened out of nowhere, the growth itself was at an acceptable level.

But seeing the crack in others is a different matter.

“See this black hole? Anyone else?”

“Oh, yes, it looks good… … .”

“I can see us too.”

When Cha Shin Hyeon asked a question, Kim Ha-geun and other party members crawled and answered.

“You answered that you didn’t see me last time.”

“Last time?”

Kim Ha-geun, who was tilting his head, immediately recalled his memories.

“Ah, you must have said something about cracks back then. Cha Shin Hyeon says you can only see it with your eyes. So is this what you said?”

“It’s the same place, so it’s probably the same. It’s a lot bigger than it was back then.”

Mumbling, Cha Shin Hyeon turned her gaze back to the crack.

Just because it got bigger doesn’t mean it was small enough to be invisible to the previous size. There is no way that Kim Ha-geun’s eyes couldn’t be seen because it was a knot hole.

The nature of the crack has changed.

Like Cha Shin Hyeon, everyone can see it without any special abilities.

Come to think of it, there were some obvious changes besides the size.

The presence of a crack, albeit faintly, was caught in Cha Shin Hyeon’s senses. It was a major change compared to the past when it was doubtful whether it even existed without seeing it with the naked eye.

“Hmm… … .”

After thinking for a moment, Cha Shin Hyeon released his magic from his fingertips.

A single line of magical energy approached the crack, procrastinating like a snake preying on its prey.

Tung!

The moment the magic hit the crack, it bounced off with strong resistance. He seemed to refuse contact.

His sensing ability, which has an enormous range even by default, is further expanded. He puts the entire dungeon within his senses and accepts an amount of information that would drive a normal person crazy.

I checked it myself in the tutorial dungeon.

The rabbit that came out of the rift was different from the existing rabbit in the form of life force. There was a big difference between the raw and well-refined energy.

If so, there will also be mistworms from the cracks in this Mist Pup dungeon, and they can be distinguished by the type of energy they have.

Rather than the ‘ignorant’ method of walking around in the fog and killing and checking the haze, it is a ‘stylish’ method to shoot with a pinpoint from the beginning. Of course, let’s skip which one is more ignorant in terms of difficulty.

‘found.’

There are a total of 8 subspecies in the dungeon.

He seemed to be wandering around the dungeon alone or in pairs. Unfortunately, it wasn’t around here, and everyone was quite far away.

Cha Shin Hyeon, who was contemplating which side to aim for, made a decision.

Rather than go deeper into the dungeon, we decided to aim for the two mist pegs on the side closest to the entrance.

‘Catch it on the way and check it out. Go out of the dungeon as it is and call him to check the cracks in the tutorial dungeon. You can check the cracks here by yourself.’

He was happy inside that he had created a fairly efficient route, and Cha Shin Hyeon called for Kim Ha-geun.

“I have a few more questions to check regarding the Rift, so could you please follow me? I’m trying to move a little bit faster.”

“That’s right.”

You can’t leave those who want to check it out quickly but don’t have the skills to leave it in the fog.

Cha Shin Hyeon took the lead and led his party. He didn’t have one or two questions, but Ha-geun Kim wisely and patiently followed Cha Shin Hyeon’s footsteps.

Floating low to a height of about 3 meters, Cha Shin Hyeon flies away with flying magic. It was a route that moved in a straight line toward the target.

Hunters diligently followed Cha Shin Hyeon on the ground. Still, all of them were level 40 or higher combat-type hunters, so they were able to keep moving at a speed higher than the speed at which ordinary people sprint.

It seemed that the mistletoes, who were not aware of the fact that there was a pursuer, were wandering around the dungeon leisurely. They continued to move, but the distance gradually narrowed.

It would have been like that for about 20 minutes.

The distance was narrowed down to the depths of several hundred meters.

“Let’s try a little harder. We are almost there.”

Cha Shin Hyeon encouraged the party members. Kim Ha-geun asked a question from below.

“Are you chasing monsters right now?”

“Yes. He’s under the magic of detection. Occasionally, this direction is also the entrance to the dungeon. I think we should just go out of the dungeon after catching him.”

“all right. Now, did you all hear it? you can do it!”

“Yes!”

Rather than being physically exhausted, I was tired of running around looking at only Cha Shin Hyeon and others in the fog. When I said that it would be over in a little while, the party members responded vigorously.

It was when Cha Shin Hyeon smiled at the Tamra guild members who followed him honestly without complaining – no one would dare to grumble in front of him.

The change occurred without notice.

In terms of distance, about 600 meters ahead.

Cha Shin Hyeon has been chasing two special misters so far.

evaporated.

“What?!”

Cha Shin Hyeon opened her eyes wide.

Even if Mist Pup uses other tricks such as fogging, he can’t escape his senses.

Moreover, it is not at peace now. It is an open state of transcendental sense in which the amount of information received is explosive.

But what if the presence of the monster that had just been captured disappears?

“Mr. Ha-geun Kim!”

Cha Shin Hyeon hastily opened her mouth. Kim Ha-geun, recognizing his unusual voice, answered immediately.

“Yes, yes?”

“You just need to come 600 meters in the direction you are going now. Let’s go first!”

Without hearing an answer, Cha Shin Hyeon immediately raised her magic power. Immediately after the magic wraps around his body, the magic attribute changes and the power of leaping dwells.

Pot!

After jumping over the distance of 600 meters at once, Cha Shin Hyeon arrived at her destination. It was the place where the signs of mistletoe evaporated.

The range of the transcendental sense rapidly decreases. It doesn’t close the senses. Instead of narrowing the scope, it was a process of increasing detail.

The entire area was checked with almost microfiber-level precision.

Still, there were no traces.

“What the hell happened… … .”

Cha Shin Hyeon, who looked around with a frown, stopped talking.

A black hole fluttering high in the air about 1 meter from the ground.

You can see the entrance to the foggy dungeon.

Well, originally, they were chasing the mistletoe near the entrance, and the direction of their movement was the same, so it is not strange that the entrance is here now. It was time to arrive.

But, by the way.

Exactly that the presence of monsters in this place disappeared.

“… no way?”

* * *

The tutorial dungeon management task is a place where likes and dislikes are divided according to individual preferences.

It is a refuge for hunters who want to level up as quickly as possible and want to rise to a higher place, and it is like a vacation spot for hunters who want to live their lives comfortably.

For this reason, Yeomyeong unconditionally rotates the work every 6 months. So that you don’t hold on to the person you hate for too long, and the person you like doesn’t suck honey for too long.

Even so, it’s basically a place where you want to work, so as a result, the management hunters of the tutorial dungeon were people who liked to work.

“Ha-am.”

Ji-woong Yoo, the manager of the Chiaksan Tutorial Dungeon, yawned.

Laying on the sofa scratching his body looks like a typical example of a beast with nothing to do.

Even so, all the hunters dispatched here did was clear the dungeon once a week. The situation is similar in other dungeons, but the problem is that the monsters here are only rabbits. The difficulty was too easy.

Even that, there is no tutorial dungeon user. It was a job of a complete thief who received only a salary while having very little to do. It’s a great place to make people negligent, so never leave it for more than 6 months.

Well, it was suitable for personal training as there was a lot of time left, but hunters who live so hard don’t usually volunteer in places like this.

Yoo Ji-woong’s behavior has already turned into a great lazy guy, who came here because he said he was comfortable, but he played hard for 5 months.

“Ah, this will be over in a month. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to go back to normal.”

Still, he seemed to be conscious, Yoo Ji-woong muttered a little worriedly.

“It will be fine, okay. They say that there are very few people who can’t get used to going to another place, right? It is said that if you roll it, everything will be fixed.”“It’s a problem because I don’t want to roll.”

I had a conversation with his brothers and sisters in the team, but they were all in peace. After a few months of being comfortable, everyone changes like this.

“Hey, let’s watch TV.”

In the end, Yoo Ji-woong, who was pretending to be worried, put his thoughts back and picked up the remote control.

At the same time, he was broadcasting his favorite variety show on a cable channel.

“Pu ha ha ha!”

“Wow, what is that, really?”

Everyone sat comfortably and watched TV with a smile. Gradually, the level of concentration on the increasingly exciting broadcast increased.

at that time.

Suddenly the screen went black.

“uh?”

“What, who touched the remote?”

“It’s right in front of you.”

“Eh? Didn’t you touch me?”

When hunters who do not know English are bewildered.

Only sound came out of the black screen.

[You certainly did not take the blessing in vain, but you did not take the warning seriously. It was a well-expected event, but it was also the fate of mankind. The best I could have done was to delay it so far. I hope you can get out of this nightmare.]

The voice of a holy woman exuding sacred, mysterious, and loving-kindness.

While the hunters were silently listening as if possessed, the voice that was not long ended in no time. The TV screen returns to normal.

But no one cared about entertainment or anything like that.

“It was just… … .”

“goddess… Nope?”

It was an old story that had been around for over 15 years now, but those from the Hunter Academy could not have known. How could he not have learned about the origins of Hunter?

Turning off the TV, Yoo Ji-woong said in a serious voice.

“Do you remember the content?”

“What was the fate of mankind? I even said that it was delayed until now.”

“I hope you get out of this nightmare… … .”

The final voice of the goddess gave a strange ominous feeling. Silence fell naturally between them.

The CCTV screen was caught in the eyes of Yoo Ji-woong, who was slowly turning his gaze elsewhere in the awkward atmosphere.

“uh?”

The entrance to the dungeon with iron fences around it to prevent the harshest from entering. CCTV for crime prevention.

Yoo Ji-woong got up abruptly and ran to the front of the screen.

He moaned in a trembling voice.

“Hey, what is this… … .”

Rather, Yoo Ji-woong ran out of the office, hoping that the screen was wrong or that his brothers had overlaid another video as a joke. He couldn’t believe it until he saw it with his own eyes.

But the restricted area just behind the office building clearly betrayed his expectations.

from the inside of the iron fence.

A few rabbits were running nervously and bumping into the railings.

The appearance of a couple of dogs jumping close to 2 meters without winning over the excitement was never a performance that a normal rabbit could show.

“The dungeon rabbit… How to get out… … .”

May 15, 2026.

After April 1, 2011, it is the second day that ‘Voice of the Goddess’ was broadcast all over the world at once.

It was the first day the monster left the dungeon.
