Chapter 10
First Hunt (1)
A dark cave where some men work hard in their masks and headlanterns.
And one of them stood out. He was hitting something mechanically with a big hammer.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
After a few hammering moments, a lump of liquid, which was almost colorless and moving, burst.
Slime body fluids that scatter acid as they release an invisible, intangible energy.
A piece of bodily fluids clings to the edge of the man’s clothing hitting the hammer.
Body fluids pressed together with dental sounds. Fortunately, I stopped wearing protective clothing and wearing it slightly without piercing my clothes.
But that wasn’t the end. There was a black gas spill from the slime’s death. The poison gas made the cave’s filthy air cloudier.
However, the poison gas could not pierce the man’s gas mask, and the man shoved a metal hose in his left hand toward the shattered slime.
Shushun
Fluid in slime drawn through metal hose with suction sound. Inhaled body fluids accumulate in a huge reservoir held by a man on his back.
The man repeats his behavior over and over again.
I wonder how much time has passed.
The man steps out of the cave as the slime bin is full. Through the colorful portal to the cave entrance, the man’s place quickly changed from a cave to a concrete building.
The building was a guard post surrounding a glowing portal.
Soldiers who were on guard at the entrance found the man and were alert, pointing guns at him.
“Don’t move. Identify yourself.”
“Class F Hunter Peak. ”
“I’m the Hunter of Jingwoo. ”
The deputy officer, who had briefly checked the roster in the Alert Report, sent a “pass” sign.
Soldiers on guard.
Sang-woo, No. 1, followed the soldiers’ instructions and completed a simple scan. And as he crossed the soldiers, a man standing guard shook his head.
“Is it the Chungwoo Hunter again? Aren’t you tired?”
“I know. You work hard in the unpopular dungeon. ”
“You said they don’t even filter through the gas mask. Shouldn’t we stop him? ”
“Leave it. I’ll take care of it. ”
Identity only is registered on the guards’ station entry list, but you don’t know what skills you have.
It was Haefning because Sang-woo didn’t know if he had a self-immolation.
I left behind such chattering and went to the locker on one side of the guard post.
I opened the password to the lockbox as if I were familiar, and I saw a pile of storage bins.
Issue 1 put the bin in which she was carrying and carried a new one.
Then the first one back to the portal.
As he approaches the Dungeon Gate again, the guards sigh.
“Hunter, I’ve been gathering slimes for almost 20 hours, but how about you just die?” ”
One soldier said, looking at the soldier for a moment.
“If you hunt too long, the gas is bad. I’ve lost a lot of protective clothing, so get some rest tomorrow. Hunter.”
Despite the Soldier’s maneuver, Issue 1 was just waiting quietly as if to ask for permission to enter.
Security warden finally gave his permission.
As the barricade clears in front of him, Ark 1 approaches the portal as if it were familiar.
‘No, I’m not sleepy at all. ’
The guards, including the warden, had both raised their hands and feet.
But until then, they didn’t know.
The 20-hour hunt for Issue 1 lasted more than 48 hours.

A shabby shop in the back alley of Namdaemun Market.
She was quietly looking at the scale with the shop owner.
[12kg]
“Exactly 12 kilos. The reservoir weighs 2 kilos. Let’s see · · · Slime body fluids are currently priced at ₩ 19,000 per kilo, so it’s ₩ 190,000 per bucket. ”
There were eight of those barrels around.
“It’s eight cases, so it’s 150,000 won. ”
“Mr. Ago, how many years have we had this deal and you’re being naughty? Don’t do that. Make it 155. ”
“No, boss, I don’t know what I have left. ”
“So you’re going to the store next door? ”
“· · · Charm. Got it. I’ll give you 155. He was weak. ”
She sold her slime body fluid for 150,000 won. 310,000 won, which was 20%, was Kang Joon-Mo’s share.
He hands over 50,000 won to an eight-ton truck courier carrying a storage container.
“Thank you, boss. Sing it again.”
“I’ll be in touch. ”
The remaining money for him is ₩ 260,000. This was the revenue from the two days.
‘Did Dobong Slime Dungeon Security Depot have a large storage charge of KRW 500,000 · ·. We need to get into formation now. ’
Two days ago, Kang Joon-mo took Peak Woo to the Slime Dungeon Hunting Ground in Dobong Mountain.
Before I went, I rented some simple basic equipment from a company I know, and I familiarized myself with the Slime Hunting Manual with the Normal Wu throughout the journey.
In fact, training was enough because the hunting of the slime was not so difficult.
The only problem is poison gas.
“Up to 6 hours. That’s all you need to hunt. If you want more, you can rest for an hour or two and then come back in. If you think you have gas masks or protective clothing, get out of there immediately. I rented the Slime Container here and put it in storage, so you can replace it here. ”
“Yes, sir. ”
“Let me know when the hunt is over. ”
Kang Jun Mo came down from the mountain after giving up hunting like that. And I spent a busy day recruiting and managing other hunters. I completely forgot about the existence of normal friends.
Then a couple of days later, I got a call from the top woo.
The Storage Container is full, so the hunt is over, and I think we should retrieve it.
“Two days and you filled up the storeroom?” No way. ‘
Thinking about the tough life force of the slime and the small body, it is difficult to fill one barrel a day. However, Kang Joon-woo couldn’t believe that she filled all eight of the storage containers in the small storage locker.
However, I had to personally visit the dungeon and open the guard post locker to believe it.
“Did the Hunter’s skill set be self-immolation?” ’
Looking at the reservoirs full of slime body fluids, she realized that she was mistaken.
He was as prejudiced as anyone else about his Renaissance skills.
The delusions that self-immolation would be welcome.
‘If self-immolation is not a welcome, it makes sense. Is the alter ego physically capable of hunting slimes with the alter ego? ’
Otherwise, you won’t be able to collect this much Slime Fluid.
However, Kang Junwoo realized that signing with the F-rank Hunter summit contract was luckier than he expected.
At this rate, slime hunting will bring you huge profits, with the exception of equipment rental costs such as protective clothing, protective clothing and body masks.
‘If it’s a hunter summoning a physical identity, it’s not just an F rank hunter. The growth potential is enormous. I need you to focus. And I need to find out more about skills. ’
Skills are more likely to go beyond Class F.
Given that hope, Kang Joon-Mo sent a message to the normal woo explaining his earnings.

[Balance: 7,032,100 won]
About a week since I started hunting as a hunter. Sang-woo’s account had a balance of 7 million won. Even though I had already paid the tuition fee and lost 3.5 million won.
“Huhu, I’m going to get rich soon! ’
I split the room while looking at the account balance on my smartphone.
Hang-yeon, who was solving the problem next to him, looked at Sang-woo to see if it bothered him.
“What are you looking at? ”
“Oh, it’s just… It’s nothing.”
“Did you see the nasty? ”
“No? What are you looking at people for? Did you solve the problem? ”
“I solved it. You’re right to be angry. ”
“Hmmm · · · Look at the solve. ”
Sang-woo turned off his smartphone and tried to distract him and scored Ha-yeon’s problem paper.
It was a simulated linguistic field test. Out of the 10 questions, there were six answers that Haryeon got right.
“Four last time, and six this time. You see, I’ll do it. ”
“Actually, I don’t use my head. I’m kind of smart. ”
Ha-yeon who was embarrassed by Sang-woo’s empty words to encourage her. Sang-woo looked at her like she was crazy.
“Tsk, tsk. Don’t rot in your parents with that good head. What did you do without studying? ”
“I was going to be a hunter · · ·. ”
“Hunter? Are you awake? ”
“Yes, I have abilities. ”
Hayeon opened her one hand. Then a sphere of magical power formed over the hand.
“Look, isn’t that great? ”
“Wow, it’s true. What kind of power is this? ”
“The skill name is Energy Ball. It creates a sphere of magical power that you can throw at it and attack. ”
“I think you’re pretty good at it. Then why didn’t you do Hunter? ”
“I got a license to do that, too, but I’m afraid to go alone. · · ”
Sang-woo only realized that Ha-yeon was still a minor.
“You just take the test. Then I’ll take you to the hunting ground. ”
“Really?”
“Yes, I know a hunting ground. It’s safe and easy, so it’s pretty good. ”
“Okay. Promise me. ”
Hayeon reached out her pinky to Sang-woo. Sang-woo smiles and sticks out his pinky finger and fits his thumb tightly.
“This is what I promised. Don’t say anything else later! ”
“Okay, okay. You keep doing this. Then we can go to the border. ”
“Okay, I’m just going to trust you. ”
Sang-woo and Ha-yeon smiled at each other.

That was two weeks ago.
Today is the opening day of the National Guard.
Sang-woo stepped on the border campus after a long time.
I was on my way to the first grade lecture room, where I met some first-graders I used to know, but no one greeted him.
Sang-woo, a sophomore, felt self-conscious.
‘You’re the one who doesn’t have this authority. ’
While wandering around for a long time, I arrived in the classroom.
A familiar face as soon as you walk in.
It was Kim Gyeong-do, my best friend.
This semester was the exact same class time as Kyongyang because she applied for a class.
Sang-woo sat next to Gyeongdo.
“Shark High. ”
“Nice to meet you. ”
Then the students around me roar.
“What, was it Sang-woo? ”
“That brother? ”
“Sang-woo’s brother was fat. ”
The first graders who were close to Sang-woo came to me just then.
“Sang-woo, hi. I didn’t get to say hi. ”
“No, it’s okay. How are you?”
“Hey, bro. You went on a very strict diet on vacation. Where did you work out? ”
“No, at home. ”
“You look a little tall. ”
“Yes, you were about the same height as me. ”
Suddenly, Sang-woo’s surroundings became noisy.
In fact, Sang-woo’s height, which was 175 centimeters, was about 3 centimeters tall after getting the identity.
I was 21 years old, but my body was still growing, stimulated by constant exercise, if it hadn’t closed yet.
Sang-woo was successful in losing weight with the first act, but he was already covered in height, so Sang-woo was now showing a turbulent ratio.
Of course, there’s been a bit of a struggle so far.
“Hey, can I get some clothes now? ”
Kwon Chan-woo put his hands on Sang-woo’s shoulders and said. Sang-woo’s motivator and lawman was one of his favorite students to play.
“It’s been a long time. Clothes.”
“So there’s another comic ball and an ace. All right, you’re next in line. ”
“Meeting?”
“Kwon Chan-woo, aren’t you going to help me? ”
“You have a girlfriend. Sang-woo, you’re free this Friday. I’ll set up a meeting with the broadcasting department. ”
“No, I’m good. ”
From the first day of class, I suffered from my friends who were with Sang-woo.
Of course, I didn’t feel bad about being popular.

Meanwhile, the time.
Dobongsan Slime Dungeon.
Something massive begins to move in the dark cave.
