Chapter 113: Chapter 113
The next day.
As soon as the day dawned, Suho headed for Euljiro.
Thanks to Rio Singh, now that I knew the enemies I had to deal with, it was time to prepare accordingly.
'Hundreds of archers ....'
Of course, I didn't think this information was unconditionally certain.
Perhaps there were more unrevealed ice elves, so we had to assume the possibility that they were much more numerous than that.
Besides, just in time, he had a money line to hope that Suho would not die.
"Our guild leader has a lot of money. I will buy you a guardian item."
Just Rio Singh.
On a business trip to scout Suho, he had a corporate business card given to him by the Asura Guild.
He was willing to swipe his credit card anyway to pay off his debt to Thomas Andre and to buy Suho's favor.
But Ber grabbed Rio Singh by the collar and growled ferociously.
[Don't boast about the price you deserve. The crime of putting the little lord in danger will disappear...]
"Kekkeek. hard to say easy easy."
[...I'll use it well]
Ver quickly took his corporate card and presented it to Suho.
Caang- Caang-
Kiyiing-!
Upon arriving at Euljiro, noises from all directions awaited them.
Once in Euljiro, I used to hear these words like a running joke.
'Everything is sold in Euljiro except people.'
A store where you can find anything you need.
A special area lined with special workshops with a lot of specialized equipment.
That place was Euljiro.
It was only after the cataclysm that Euljiro began to become more famous in earnest.
Eventually, the moment they came out of the narrow alley.
Fire!
...!
Sucked into an open field of vision, a tremendous sight unfolded before them.
[Euljiro Blacksmith]
This
is how Euljiro adapted to this era of upheaval.
[Hunter Exclusive Survival Kit Wholesaler]
[Shield special processing]
[Sword and ax blade sharpening.]
[Plate armor workshop]
[Making/processing blunt weapon castings]
A rare scene with various signboards.
Hunter goods were displayed in front of them.
There would be no Hunter who would not roll his eyes even after seeing this.
'iced coffee! Is this Korea's Hunter Mall?'
So did Leo Singh.
Of course, there are places like this in India as well, but new weapons are waiting for new weapons dealers.
In addition, it was quite unusual for him to see arms dealers concentrated in one area like Korea.
"Guardian! Steering here too! Item Shop! Blacksmith!"
In fact, regardless of nationality or grade, if you are a hunter, you have no choice but to become an equipment enthusiast.
It was because normal hunters couldn't level up like Suho, so there was no way to become stronger.
First of all, since the amount of magic power is a fixed value, the only effort they can make is to increase their physical strength.
In other words, physical training through rigorous training such as gym or sports.
Or, it was just to develop proficiency in using their skills in various ways based on their numerous practical experiences.
However, there was one sure way to grow up that could easily ignore all those hardships.
right temp.
A stronger weapon!
More durable armor!
If you change the equipment you use to something slightly better, you can become just as strong.
So, it was only natural for Hunters to change their equipment.
* * *
"Tsk. Are you here now?"
In front of Blacksmith in Euljiro, there was a person who arrived first and was waiting for Suho.
The middle-aged man, who was leaning his back against the wall with his arms crossed, looked at Suho and made a disapproving expression.
"...You're probably the first person to call me out to recommend some usable items."
Suho was absurd.
"No, uncle. When did I call the uncle? I just asked for a recommendation from a weapon store I know, and the person who insisted on coming out..." "
Oldly, you have to touch and pick a weapon yourself. What if I texted you Tick for no reason and you get caught somewhere? Are you going to spread rumors that the guild leader you bought at that time was not good at paying attention?"
"Oh, I hope I do."
"...!"
Lio Xing, who was listening to their conversation from the side, realized the man's true identity and trembled as if he had been struck by lightning.
'oh my god! I wonder where I've seen it, isn't it Lim Tae-gyu, an S-class hunter?! Did this person know Seongsuho Hunter?'
While on a business trip, Leo Singh had already familiarized himself with the information about hunters in Korea.
Of course, I knew someone like Lim Tae-gyu.
'Now I see that Scavenger wasn't the only competitor. Of course, I had no idea that large guilds in Korea would also covet Seongsuho.'
He looked at Suho's intentions with a nervous expression.
"Su Su-ho. Join the Death Guild?"
"no."
"No!"
Lio Singh's face lit up again.
But it was still too early to let go.
"Who is this guy again? A new friend?"
"yes. I am an Asura Guild Hunter."
"Ah, was it an Indian hunter?"
At that moment, indifferent Lim Tae-gyu's gaze and Leo Sing's eyes collided in the air, and Leo Sing suddenly noticed.
The fact that Lim Tae-gyu's expression toward Suho is full of regret (?).
'I can't do it. I need to contact the guild leader and ask for a higher limit on the corporate card.'
Seongsuho could have been taken away right in front of me if I was pushed back here.
Moreover, right in front of his eyes, a conversation was going on that justified Lio Sing's anxiety.
"...Anyway, thank you very much for coming in person. You must be busy, but please make time for me."
"The guy who kept chewing on the contact of that busy person until now speaks well."
"Oh, I'm really sorry about that. There are so many guild sign-up messages these days, so I haven't read them all."
"What happened? You say you're building your career to set up a separate guild anyway?"
"How did you know?"
"...somehow I found out about it. Originally, this floor was narrow."
It was Lim Tae-gyu, who quietly changed his words with a shy expression.
Because of the Vice President Lee Min-seong's case, the death guild was not making sense these days.
It was also a problem that his image plummeted in one shot, but he was also experiencing financial difficulties.
He ran out of money to give away the death consolation money for the hunters who died at the time of the incident to the bereaved families by robbing Lim Tae-gyu of his personal expenses.
He did everything he could, but that doesn't mean that his image once lost could not be easily restored.
'...so I tried to recruit this guy somehow.'
In a situation where many hunters are lost and manpower is urgently needed, it is natural to miss one talented person like Suho.
However, there was no way to bring in a guy who said he would set up a guild himself.
'Besides...'
Lim Tae-gyu, who stared at Suho's face for a while with a complicated gaze, opened his mouth.
"Anyway, what are you going to buy today?"
"A bow. You are the most expert in bows in Korea."
"That is normal."
"...bow?!"
Lio Xing was greatly taken aback by the conversation between the two.
'This is crazy! To use the same bow as a countermeasure against hundreds of ice elves!'
The strategy is terribly wrong!
Naturally, Lio Sing, who thought Suho had come to buy armor and shields, panicked and stopped him.
"Guardian! There are so many ice elves! Full plate mail! I recommend a tower shield!"
"...There are a lot of ice elves?"
Lim Tae-gyu's eyebrows twitched as he heard Leo Singh's words.
Then, he quickly turned serious and glared at Suho.
"for a moment. Are you thinking of entering the Glacier Dungeon right now?"
"uh? Do you know about the Glacier Dungeon?"
"Who do you think I am? Do you think I, Lim Tae-gyu, don't even know that much information?"
At Suho's reaction, Lim Tae-gyu sighed heavily and gnashed his teeth.
No matter how bad things got, the Reaper Guild was considered the best guild in Korea until recently.
That much information was, of course, well known.
"No wait. Then why did Thomas Andre come yesterday...?"
It was only a small piece of information, but it was Lim Tae-gyu who noticed a lot with that alone.
Recently, rumors were circulating in the industry that scavengers were aiming for glacier dungeons.
He looked at Suho with a strange expression.
"Were you acquainted with Thomas Andre?"
"no. I first heard of it yesterday."
"What the hell... no, if you don't know anything else, don't ever go in as a scavenger. They are ignorant."
"I'm not going in. Somehow, we only ended up entering the dungeon together this once."
"Good luck then. But why are you buying a bow when you're going to the Glacier Dungeon? Against hundreds of archers, of course you would need large and sturdy armor, right?"
"that's right! Armor! shield! Buy a tower shield!"
Even Rio Sing joined in to try to change Suho's heart.
However, Suho's mind was already set.
The defense was already sufficient.
Even without a shield, there were plenty of ways to block the arrows.
And above all...
'Of course it's more about attack than defense.'
Rather than standing still and blocking an attack, it suited his temper to attack first.
However, Lim Tae-gyu and Rio Sing, who did not know Suho's intentions, continued to nag while following Suho as he entered the bow shop.
"okay. Aside from the shield, why is it a bow? you're a swordsman It's not like the scavenger guild doesn't have archers."
"that's right. Suho originally uses dual swords. Asura."
"Yes, Suho. I'm sure you're mistaken, but a bow is by no means an easy weapon to handle. know?"
Lim Tae-gyu, who is acknowledged to be the best archer in Korea, could not allow a newcomer like Su-ho to take the bow lightly.
"Anyway, everyone is mistaken for the image of an archer because of the games that have come out these days, but in fact, there is no occupation that requires as much strength as an archer. The higher the attack power, the bigger and heavier the bow, so pulling the bowstring... Huh?"
tall.
The reason why Lim Tae-gyu's nagging, which seemed to last forever, suddenly stopped.
It was because Suho just picked up the biggest and heaviest bow in the store.
[Strength: 115]
Waahia-
Suho was so light that he was pulling a bow demonstration.
"...?"
"...?"
"Mister, can you see if this is a good bow... Why are you looking at me like that?"
When Suho's eyes met, Lim Tae-gyu cleared his throat with an embarrassed expression.
"Hey, the power is good. By the way, you were a class C horsepower, right? Are you sure it's C-class?"
Lim Tae-gyu, who recalled Suho's battle he had witnessed, looked at Suho with a slightly suspicious expression.
"Did you get a re-measurement after that? No, even if it's roughly grade B. Do you have archery skills in the first place?"
"I don't have one."
"what? no? If you don't have archer skills, your mana will run out quickly after just a few shots, right?"
Lim Tae-gyu touched his forehead, realizing how much Suho was a rookie hunter.
If he forcibly condensed mana to create an arrow without an archer skill, the efficiency of mana per arrow was too poor.
Compared to normal archer hunters, it consumes 3 to 10 times more magic power.
Suho shrugged at his question.
"Everything has a way..."
It was then.
As he spoke, Suho's complexion hardened terribly.
─!!!!
A huge wave of magical energy spread throughout the area.
"...!"
"...!"
At that moment, all the hunters in the store opened their eyes almost simultaneously and turned their eyes in the same direction.
A tremendous energy was felt far beyond that direction.
"It's a dungeon break!"
"It's around here!"
Urgent voices erupted from the mouths of the hunters in Euljiro, no matter who said it first.
But there was nothing to worry about.
This is Euljiro.
Maybe it was the place where the most hunters gathered in Korea.
"Whoever catches this first is the owner!"
The hunters all put down the things they were going to buy and started running to the place where they felt the dungeon break.
in the middle of the mess.
Lim Tae-gyu was looking at Suho standing next to him with a strange expression.
'Is it my illusion?'
When everyone looked at the place where the energy wave was felt at the same time.
There was a person who turned his head first than anyone else.
'...I think this guy was the fastest.'
maybe even more than myself.
