Demon King

Chapter 15: Mass Appearance (1)

Mass Appearance (1)

[1.5 times the experience gained for 3 hours from now.]

[3:00:00]

When I left the exclusive store, I again met the cave wall that I had faced a little more than 10 minutes ago.

My mind was calm again in a different sense than when I was in the store. I felt like I was back in the space where I should be. Instinctively preparing for battle, I triggered my senses, and checked my surroundings.

A bitter smile appeared as I thought about how I had never punched anyone in my life. I didn’t know when I became aggressive. Did I have these capabilities all along? Were they hidden underneath me?

I knocked on the red armor with a defensive strength of 230. The armor that perfectly protects the whole body fits me as if it were made for me. What’s more, it wasn’t very thick, and the structure was great, it barely interfered with my movements. But because of the weight, my running speed slowed down for a little bit.

Also, since the strength of the armor was much higher than that of my bronze shield, the damage received on the body was lesser than when the shield blocks an attack. I realized that the shield became useless, and maybe I should just get rid of it.

‘I wish I had one helmet. Will it still be in the dedicated store when I came back later for it?’

The chance to eat 5-gold jjajangmyeon will not come for the time being. It didn’t matter though. It grows as long as it doesn’t die. One day, there will be a day when you can spend 5 gold effortlessly.

The duration of 1.5x is 2 hours, 59 minutes, and a few seconds. To maximize efficiency, it is natural to catch a guy who gives you lots of experience.

In honor of changing my armor, I decided to immediately challenge the realm of the Goblin Warrior.

I already knew the location. I walked quickly and went inside the dungeon. The Goblin Fighters I encountered were quickly hacked, chopped and devoured. Fighters with small body sizes were not difficult to eat quickly on the spot.

“Ughhh Aghhh!”

I heard the Goblin Warrior’s ten furious breaths, and when he stepped into the passage beyond that number, his breathing relaxed. Arrogant but relaxed. Indeed, they were foolish.

I stepped into a new aisle, slowly and silently. It was more extensive than the passage so far, and the ceiling was high. And the Goblin Warrior sitting in the middle was eating something.

Anyway, it is a great opportunity. I found him, and he was full. And while the Goblin Warrior is eating, the opportunity to attack was greater.

I may not have thought of attacking the Goblin Warrior before. Now, however, with my increased strength, I was able to move faster and more skillfully, and even though I was a beginner, the level of the Surprise Skill became 3.

In fact, thanks to the Goblin’s Warrior focus on what he was eating, he didn’t notice me approaching.

I approached him carefully. I held the Blood Bastard Sword tight in my left hand, and ready to shoot black thunder at any time with my right.

Five steps. Four steps. Three steps. Two steps… ….

“Stabbed!”

“Shhhuunnkk.”

The surprise attack succeeded! Bastard, who covered the air with a red line, ripped off his nape. Dark blood soared in the air.

The Goblin Warrior screamed in pain. I didn’t waste time and shot a black lightning bolt on his face.

“Duggshhh!”

“Go away!”

However, the moment he was hit by a black thunder, he kicked the corpse of a Balchik towards me and rolled the floor. The Black Lightning was at Beginner Level, and so it was not cursed.

“Shazam! Buggsshh”

While I was kicking the body that had been thrown at me out of the way, the Goblin Warrior charged and gave a furious kick aimed at my elbow!

“Kick!”

“Aaaahhhh!”

If it was in the past, I would be having a big wound on my forearm, but I had red armor that covered my forearm; hence the bastard wasn’t able to lay a scratch on me; he even missed! He looked crazily at my armor and realized that it was superior to his leather armor.

I screamed at his miserable face as my sharp blade ripped off his eyes and finished him off.

[You gained 1,020 experience.]

[You acquired 90 bronze.]

[2:49:39]

I laughed as I watched the Goblin Warrior fall on the floor. In a moment, I gained over 1,000 experience points.

There was still time, but it couldn’t be wasted. It was a little crowded, and I wanted to catch as many Goblin Warriors as possible in the short time available.

[You acquired a worn leather armor.]

[You acquired a Bastard Sword with missing teeth.]

“Then what do you do with this body?”

The Goblin Warrior’s body after a certain period of time was automatically peeled off from him and into my inventory, as well as the weapons and armor that came into being.

Initially, it was my existing style to eat the corpse here, destroy weapons and armor that I do not need to use, and move it. This was because there was not so much space in the inventory.

I first broke his weapon and armor so no one could use it anymore. I threw it to the bottom of the dungeon. After thinking for a moment, I decided to save the Goblin Warrior corpse and let the rest go until the inventory allowed me to store some bodies.

Of course, when the stamina fell, I would eat even if the time had not passed, and after 3 hours, I’m going to eat the corpse that was left on the road the way I came.

The next passage also had a Goblin Warrior. He was sleeping.

I sauntered up to three steps away from him and then quickly jumped on him using Leap. The Leap Skill, which became the Beginner’s 5th level, made it possible to jump swiftly and as high as approximately 1 meter and 50 centimeters.

“Kirik!?”

“Black Lightning!”

This time it went well! When a black lighting magic comes out and hits him, his body trembles, and collapses!

I played around, first drawing on his neck and riding over his body, kicking away the neatly placed sword and shield near him. Thinking that I was not prepared, the weakened Gobline Warrior attempted to out and strike me with anger. I saw it coming, and brought my sword down to cut his arm off. His flimsy leather armor was torn, and the blood spurted from his arm.

“Kaaaaaaaah!”

“shhhuunkk.”

It was easier than the first one. I sliced his neck open, and after a few weak struggles, he stayed in place.

[You received 930 experience.]

[You acquired 85 bronze.]

[2:45:11]

Less than before, but still nearly 1,000. I placed his corpse in the inventory.

Hunted one in 2 minutes. If I keep doing it this way, I will be able to level up in a short while.

Finally came to me. The chance of storm growth!

“Duuggshh!”

[You received 1,110 experience.]

[You acquired 1 silver.]

[1:39:28]

‘Still?’

I saw a Goblin Warrior who fell in front of me and grinded it. It brought the number to precisely thirty-two Goblin Warriors, and my level was still 29.

‘Even at level 29, I would have accumulated over 50,000 experience.’

This was too strange. When I reached level 29, I wouldn’t need so much experience. There was a difference from the experience required to become level 28, but it did not make a big difference as it is now.

No, wait a minute.

I remembered when I achieved level 10. At that time, I just went over but compared to the previous that I climbed to level 7 with less than 200 experience, I remembered that the growth stayed at level 10 even though I received 1,000 experience as quest rewards.

The same goes for level 20. I received a relatively large amount of experience, and I thought that many levels would have risen, but it was only at level 25.

I thought it was a high enough level at the time, but I didn’t need that much experience to achieve level 26 after that. Even then, I thought it was weird.

‘Is it repeating every 10th level? Then there was a similar case in the game.’

A system that makes leveling in a particular section difficult. The amount of experience required for leveling up has significantly increased, but once the level is exceeded, the growth rate returns to normal. I experienced such a case.

If so, I needed convincing to understand. Best of all, my first evolution took place at level 10. The number that drops to 10 may have something to say.

I guessed the situation, but I couldn’t help getting angry. I was relieved by biting the body of my Goblin Warrior, who was also weak.

[Strength has risen by 1.]

[Lower Swordsmanship has become Lv3.]

[Beginner Detection becomes Lv10 and changes to lower detection. The detectable range and precision increase.]

Only

Of course, I was happy that my strength increased, but the rise of the two skills made me happier.

Goblin Warriors basically have a high level of Beginner Fencing. Yes, it is a Beginner status. It is not Lower.

On the other hand, I entered Lower fencing, and the gap between the Beginner and the Lower level made a huge difference in the battle. The orbit of a Beginner’s sword is visible to me, while as a Lower swordsman, I could not read the orbit of the sword I stretched out. The skill was so absolute.

So, there was no way that I wouldn’t be happy when the level went up.

Something else pleased me greatly aside from the Lower Swordsman skill. So far, with my Beginner Detection skill, I have been able to detect my surrounding with a range of 14m centered on me, but the level has increased to the Lower level, and the range has increased to 20m in a short time. Moreover, the detection feels more refined.

The amount of information flowing into my five senses within a radius of 20 meters has increased significantly.

A normal person equipped with Lower Detection would have been sick by now, but since my physical ability has increased in many ways, and since I started from the lower level and worked myself up, it was not difficult to adapt. And after adaptation, I felt like I was in the new world.

The first information I detected was: There were two Goblin Warriors in the next passage.
