Chapter 85: Mob Hunting (2)

Chapter 85: Mob Hunting (2)

Got it. Shall we all head out to hunt these Centaur-like creatures together? Oh, but before that, we should discuss our positions and basic strategies

No need for that. Ill handle the monsters on my own.

What? You alone, Black Scythe?

Everyone, including An Sang-cheol, was astonished.

Taking on a monster that a 5-member party struggled with, alone?

Of course, given Black Scythes level, it was entirely possible.

But what would the rest of the group do if he went solo?

Ryu Min seemed to anticipate their thoughts and spoke up.

The rest of you, just stick with me, collect experience points, and gold. You could think of it as a free ride.

In other words, hell carry them along.

However, Ill take all the items that come through contributions. In return, you can level up and earn gold quickly without any risk. How does that sound?

Um If thats the case

It was certainly an appealing offer.

Why refuse to give up a few items when you could safely gain experience points and gold?

Very well.

Were fine with it.

Well follow Black Scythes lead.

Ryu Min nodded in agreement.

You made a wise choice. You probably wont be disappointed.

As Ryu Min, going solo was more convenient than fighting with everyone.

Trying to help from the sidelines would only be a hindrance.

Its just a Centaur, so its nothing more than a trash mob to me.

Ryu Min brandished his Deaths Scythe.

Shall we get going?

Taht-!

As Ryu Min shot off like a bullet, the group was taken aback.

We We should follow him quickly!

Led by An Sang-cheol, everyone chased after Ryu Min.

Despite the Swift spell being active, the distance didnt seem to close down.

How can he be this fast?

Just how high is his agility?

Even Heo Taeseok, who prided himself on his speed, felt like a mere cat compared to Black Scythe.

Oh, there!

Ryu Min came face to face with a Centaur for the first time.

Kwoooah-!

Before the scream could even finish, the head fell with a swift strike.

The time it took to defeat the Centaur was 0.3 seconds.

The group, rushing towards the scene, was left dumbfounded as it hadnt even taken a second.

W-What just happened?

Just one hit?

None of them had expected the Centaur to be defeated in a single blow.

Whether Ryu Min knew their reactions or not, he immediately dashed toward the next target.

***

Had it been around 30 minutes since they began their hunt?

[Target Centaur located.]

[Currently 52m away.]

Ryu Min, using his tracking skill, took a moment to catch his breath.

[Centaur has been defeated!]

[Experience pointsx3.]

[Title effect increases experience points by 1.5 times.]

[Experience +0.89%]

[Gold +60]

[Current kill count: 172/100]

[Rune of Slaughter effect increases all stats by 100%.]

The messages kept scrolling on one side.

172 kills in 30 minutes, not too shabby.

There were a total of 2,000 Centaurs in the field. At this rate, he might be able to devour them all within 6 hours.

Well, considering other players will be hunting too, lets leave some for them.

Ryu Mins gaze shifted downward.

[Stacks accumulated with the Bead of Eternity: 71/100]

[Current durability of the Bead of Eternity: 828/1,000]

[Stat points gained from the Bead of Eternity: 11]

Real-time alerts about the Bead of Eternity appeared below his vision. When wearing the Bead of Eternity, these messages popped up upon defeating monsters.

All I need to do is keep hunting Centaurs until the Bead of Eternitys durability reaches 1, just like last time.

It was convenient not to have to check the equipment window every time.

I should ask Russell to repair the durability when I return.

While pondering that, he suddenly heard footsteps approaching.

Turning around, he saw his party members rushing towards him.

Heh, heh, heh

Im so tired

Seeing the party members who were too exhausted even to chase, Ryu Min couldnt help but smile.

If youre tired, take a short break.

Really?

Th-thank you!

After a long time, the party members sat down on the spot for a break. Seo Arin and Heo Taeseok, with the lowest strength stats, lay down completely on their backs.

Its tiring just to chase after him, seriously.

I thought a 100m radius would be spacious enough, but its not

Yeah, youre right. Whew

They said that, but it couldnt have been a happier concern. They had already leveled up in just 30 minutes.

Black Scythe, youre truly amazing. Your hunting speed is unbelievably fast.

Do you not like it?

In response to Ryu Mins teasing question, Min Juri waved her hand dismissively.

Oh, no! Not at all! Even just chasing after you raises our levels.

Is this what they call a free ride? Youre probably working harder than us, Black Scythe.

At that moment, Seo Arin joined the conversation, but Ryu Min simply responded with a nonchalant remark.

It seems like you guys are working even harder.

Haha

As they laughed and caught their breath, a group approached Ryu Min.

Hmm? Its Black Scythe.

Wow! It really is him!

There were four people in the group and a total of twenty onlookers. When the group came closer, the party members laughter subsided, and they looked at the approaching group with wary eyes.

However, there was no need to worry. These guys were crazy, but they wouldnt attack a party with Black Scythe in it.

Or so they thought.

As they approached Ryu Min, they respectfully bowed from head to toe.

Hello, Black Scythe. Its quite lucky to meet you here. Haha!

Okay, and what do you want?

Well, were recruiting a team to hunt the boss. How about joining our group?
