“Okay, come on and push! Two, three! Two, three!”

“…… ”

Ah~ This is so pitiful. Should I help?

However, there was no need for me to step in. The boulder slowly started to move, and finally, the stairs hidden underneath were revealed.

Everyone was panting heavily in return.

“Haa, haa. Now, Rudin-nim. Let’s go in.”

“…… ”

Wouldn’t it be okay to go in after resting a bit? I think it would be better to do so, but it was the client’s call. I nodded and went down the stairs, and the rest of the guild members followed me.

The dungeon we entered was……

‘Oh, it’s quite nice.’

It was a wide cave with a faint blue glow. Water was dripping from the stalactites on the ceiling, and a pleasant scent was wafting through the air for some reason.

It felt more like a tourist attraction than a dungeon.

“But what kind of monsters appear here?”

“Monsters are…… ”

Thump- Thump-

Just then, I heard the ground rumble slightly. Turning my head, I saw a blue boulder slowly walking towards us. My gaze naturally went to the top of the boulder.

[Blue Stone Golem]

Simple and nice. Blue Stone Golem.

I examined it seriously. The Blue Stone Golem, shaped like a human, was quite large. Over 2 meters tall and bulky. It felt a bit bigger than Dorgen, whom I fought the day before yesterday.

Rumble-

While I was thinking, looking at its name, a large rock appeared in the Blue Stone Golem’s hand.

What kind of skill is that?

“It’s dangerous!”

Suddenly, Loina shouted, and the Blue Stone Golem threw the rock in its hand. The thrown rock flew towards me at tremendous speed. And it was accurate. I managed to block the rock with the shield I was holding, but……

Kwaaaang!-

[You have taken damage! -250.]

“Ugh!”

I couldn’t help but stagger from the tremendous damage and impact. Somehow, I regained my balance and looked at the Blue Stone Golem, thinking.

The damage is quite high?

It felt stronger than the dungeon wolves I fought yesterday. No, it definitely was stronger. I was receiving this much damage even with the increased defense from the Black Beast Set.

Rumble-

While I was lost in thought, the Blue Stone Golem created another rock.

“Hoo, Giant’s Sprint!”

Crack!-

If this is the case, I’ll kill it before it throws!

Giant’s Sprint, activated by the double agility effect, shot out like a red flash and struck the Blue Stone Golem.

Kwaaaang!!-

[Skill Damage! 330.]

But it didn’t die. It seemed its health was as high as its attack power.

‘And with this kind of damage, F~E rank skills are useless.’

The damage wouldn’t even register. Honestly, if it wasn’t for Giant’s Sprint, none of the skills I had would be able to inflict any damage.

Just then, I heard a player shout from behind.

“Now’s our chance! Everyone, attack the Golem!”

“Skill Use!”

Boom!- Crash!!-

The players attacked the Golem using their skills, and the arrows and various magic seemed to be giving the Golem quite a shock.

“Giant’s Sprint!”

Kwaaaang!!-

[Skill Damage! 328.]

‘Damn, it won’t die.’

Should I use Jayer’s Guardian Shield? If I use it, I can expect higher damage. However, I had already used about 13% of my stamina, and I decided to just try to keep it in place for now, just in case.

Boom!-

[You have taken damage! -164.]

[You have taken damage……]

‘This is taking a while.’

Even with 12 people behind me focusing their attacks, the Blue Stone Golem showed no signs of dying. When the thought of using Giant’s Sprint one more time crossed my mind, I saw the Blue Stone Golem collapse in front of me.

Thud!-

[Combat experience 166 acquired!]

It seemed we managed to defeat the Blue Stone Golem. And the experience was 166. It might seem small at first glance, but it was a huge amount considering it was divided among 13 people.

However, since we couldn’t even kill it after using Giant’s Sprint twice, it seemed like we’d have to fight 2~3 of them at most and then take a break.

‘The dungeon level is definitely high.’

Well, Loina did say it was a high-level dungeon, and she even used cash to hire me for the hunt, so this level of difficulty wasn’t incomprehensible. But I didn’t know what would happen if more than two appeared.

“As expected, you’re amazing. We’ve never defeated it this easily before.”

Then Loina approached me and spoke.

‘Huh? Defeated it easily?’

How was defeating it with the concentrated attacks of 13 people considered easy? I couldn’t understand, but I nodded politely. Honestly, considering the Blue Stone Golem’s health and attack power, it might have been considered easy.

‘Come to think of it, Loina was a healer, right?’

The incoming damage wasn’t small, but if Loina, the healer, did her job well, it seemed like we could manage the hunt, but……

“It seems like reaching the boss will be difficult.”

“The boss? It’s okay. Just helping with the hunt is enough.”

‘Hmm?’

At that answer, I thought for a moment. The level of this dungeon was quite high. So wouldn’t the items dropped be quite good as well? Seeing Loina readily give up on the boss made me think she was probably expecting items from the Blue Stone Golem.

‘Items……’

Thinking that far, I nodded and started walking, and within a minute, I found a new Blue Stone Golem.

Thump-

‘There’s another one over there.’

Rumble-

“Tsk.”

Perhaps because of the distance, a rock appeared in the Blue Stone Golem’s hand. It seemed it only threw rocks when the target was far away. Anyway, seeing that, I ran towards the Blue Stone Golem.

“Giant’s Sprint!”

Kwaaaang!!-

[You have taken damage! -154.]

[Skill Damage! 327.]

Even though I ran with all my might, the rock was already flying towards me, so I hurriedly blocked it with my shield. And as I drew the Blue Stone Golem’s attention with the damage from Giant’s Sprint, Loina and her guild members immediately started attacking the Blue Stone Golem.

Bang!- Boom!-

‘Now I just need to keep it in place, right?’

If I kept using Giant’s Sprint, we could kill it faster, but I only had about 20 magic power left, so I decided not to overdo it.

Bang!-

[You have taken damage! -161.]

[Ding!~ The level of F-rank skill ‘Basic Shield Training’ has increased.]

[Stats Strength 1, Stamina 1 increased.]

‘Huh?’

After blocking one attack from the Blue Stone Golem, a message appeared saying that the level of Basic Shield Training had increased. It was difficult to level up Basic Shield Training because it was a passive skill, so it was only level 4 now, but if things went well, it seemed like I could raise it to level 5 within today.

‘Even if it’s just an F-rank skill.’

[Party member ‘Loina’ casts Life Recovery.]

[Health recovered by 120.]

“Damn it! Why won’t it die!”

“Keep attacking! But how much damage are you all dealing?!”

“Around 20~30? It’s mostly just elemental damage.”

Even if the damage was only 20~30, it was the combined attack of 12 people. After enduring for a while, the Blue Stone Golem collapsed, and we gained experience for it.

[Combat experience 166 acquired!]

[Ding!~ Party member Rudin-nim has acquired ‘Blue Stone Shoes’.]

“Oh?!”

“An item!”

‘Did I get it?’

Looking back, everyone was looking at me with envious eyes. Of course, an item dropped in a dungeon like this couldn’t be ordinary. So I opened the item window and checked the acquired Blue Stone Shoes.

[Blue Stone Shoes] (Magic)

Description: A mysterious colored mineral in the shape of shoes. It is characterized by being harder than most steel yet lightweight. If refined, there is a possibility of obtaining some kind of ore.

Defense: 50　　Magic Defense: 35

Durability: 50/50

*Earth Resistance increased by 1%.

*Set Effect (1/5)

━2 Piece Set Effect: Stamina increased by 10.

━3 Piece Set Effect: Defense increased by 50.

━4 Piece Set Effect: Magic Defense increased by 50.

━5 Piece Set Effect: Earth Resistance increased by 5%.

‘Oh.’

It was the opposite of the Black Beast Set I was currently wearing. If the Black Beast Set was speed-oriented, this was a defense-oriented set item. And defense was something I desperately needed.

My defense had to increase for the damage of Giant’s Sprint to increase.

‘The downside is the decrease in agility.’

No matter how I thought about it, defense was better than agility.

“What kind of item is it?”

“See for yourself.”

I handed the shoes to Loina, who was asking about the item. Loina placed her hand on the shoes to check them and soon replied with a surprised expression.

“Wow, this is quite an item.”

“Right?”

“Yes. Especially the earth attribute is good. This would sell for at least 500,000 won, wouldn’t it?”

‘500,000 won?’

Isn’t that the amount I’m getting for helping today? Hearing the amount made me think it was amazing. Well, just looking at these shoes, the defense increased by 50, so it wasn’t incomprehensible.

Simply put, if a level 1 beginner could wear these shoes, they wouldn’t take damage even from goblins.

“But what is the earth attribute?”

“Well, to explain it simply, it adds elemental damage to earth-type skills. If it’s 1%, then 1% of the damage is applied as elemental damage. And this elemental damage ignores magic defense.”

“……So it’s for mages.”

“It can be applied even if it’s not a magic class. But the price would have been higher if it was a different attribute.”

The different attribute Loina was talking about seemed to be fire or ice. Thinking about it, most attack skills were of that type, so Loina seemed to be saying that with that in mind.

‘Still, the defense alone is useful.’

Even excluding the earth attribute, it was worth using. I wished I could get all the set items today, but……

“Then shall we continue?”

“Sure.”

*　*　*

The hunt continued. It was a repetitive hunt, defeating 23 Golems, taking a break, and then defeating another 23 Golems, but no one complained about it.

That was because the dropped items were too good.

[Ding!~ Party member Kane-nim has acquired ‘Blue Stone Gloves’.]

“Yes! I got it!”

‘Tsk.’

With 13 people, there were hardly any items dropped for me. To be precise, items themselves didn’t drop often. So far, only 3 items had dropped. I got one of them, and Loina’s guild members each got one of the remaining two.

‘My skill level has increased, but……’

It wasn’t satisfying. It was only natural to think that way since I only managed to get one piece of equipment.

I should have gotten at least 2~3 pieces.

‘What should I do?’

I really wanted to obtain the set items that dropped here. Just the shoes alone increased my defense by 20, so the armor would increase it even more, which meant my overall strength would also increase.

‘Should I ask to use this dungeon instead of the 500,000 won?’

But if I said that, Loina would probably ask me to join the guild. Hmm, should I join? Honestly, most of the dungeons were owned by guilds, so I wouldn’t lose anything by joining.

[You have used up all your playtime. Please rest in reality and reconnect later.]

[Automatic disconnection in 1 minute.]

[If you have a location issue, you can extend your playtime by 30 minutes. Would you like to extend?]

“Damn it.”

“Rudin-nim?”

“No, I got the disconnection message.”

“That’s the same for me. I got the disconnection message a while ago. Anyway, it seems like we have to end the hunt here.”

I nodded. I had kept my promise to help with the hunt, so all that was left was to receive the 500,000 won and it would be over.

“Could you give me your account number? I’ll deposit the money as soon as I log out.”

If I agree here, I won’t be able to come to this dungeon again, right? Well, I knew the location, so I could sneak in, but I decided to ask for permission first.

“Um, instead of the money, could I use this dungeon for just one day tomorrow?”

“Use the dungeon? That’s a bit…… ”

As expected, it’s not possible?

“Instead, I’ll help you again tomorrow evening. I’ll only use it in the morning.”

“Just a moment. I’ll discuss it with my guild members and give you an answer.”

Saying that, Loina approached her guild members and started talking about something. It was probably about me using the dungeon, right? Honestly, I felt like it would work out.

It would be nearly impossible for them to hunt in this dungeon without me.

‘That’s how high the Golem’s attack power is.’

Anyway, after waiting for a while, the meeting ended and Loina returned to me, and I was able to hear the answer I wanted.

“Yes. Then I’ll ask for your help again tomorrow evening.”

“Oh, yes. Don’t worry.”

“But can you hunt alone in this place?”

“Well, I think I can kill one if I use up all my stamina.”

It wasn’t a lie. If I used Jayer’s Guardian Shield, I could kill it in 2~3 hits, but even then, it would consume 55% of my stamina. As long as I didn’t find a way to solve this damn magic power issue, there was nothing I could do about the stamina consumption.

And it was 55% in name only. If it wasn’t for the 10% stamina reduction option, it would have consumed a whopping 62%. Either way, the last option of the Black Beast Set was better than any other item.

“Is that so? I understand. Anyway, I’ll be counting on you tomorrow as well.”

“Yes.”
