I Login Alone-Chapter 106
Episode 106.
[Level increased by 9. Mana Increased by 6.]
[Super strength skill has reached level 4 and increased strength and stamina by an additional 5. The body becomes strong and won’t grow sick easily. The physical strength reduces the aftereffects of using skills.]
[Heavy Strike Skill reached level 40.]
Jung Si-woo had leveled-up in the sky far away so that others wouldn’t notice as he expected that his level would rise as soon as the hunt was over.
“Keueueueueueueu.”
Although it took everyone’s power to beat the supergiant monster, only one of them could accept the monster’s records and mana to make it his own. Naturally, all the power of the dead monster flowed into him, raising him nine levels at a time. Now that he had cleared three difficult dungeons, he realized that the level of monsters was really high.
“Kuuuuooooo.”
“Oppa, Oppa! Heel!”
Of course, one of the reasons he separated himself from the others was that he was suffering from the aftereffects of his super strength skill. Soo Ah-rin’s healing magic helped him recover, and he was able to regain stability in a relatively short time.
“Whoa, whoo…”
“Oppa, do you feel better now…?”
“I feel better after raising my level. But if I didn’t level up, I would’ve been drained.”
He went straight down to the ground, waiting for the pain to subside. It was like the scene of a catastrophe, with the collapsed UN headquarters, flooded roads, and parks that were so damaged that they could no longer be called human territory. The finishing blow was the monster that was buried underground, now dead.
“It’s so big. I would have had a hard time without the function to make my hammer larger.”
“It’s even more surprising to me to see you wielding a giant hammer so lightly…”
“Si-woo, you were great!”
As Jung Si-woo and Soo Ah-rin admired the monster’s body, Marina flew in like an arrow from afar. She was going to hug his neck and hang on him like a scene straight from a romance movie, but Seria, who flew in at a similar speed as her, quickly pushed her away and bowed her head to Jung Si-woo.
“Kyaak?
“That was a great performance, Mr. Si-woo.”
“You…Seria.”
“That was foolish, Marina Bissett.”
“Foo…foolish!?”
“Okay…you guys did well too.”
Jung Si-woo decided to ignore the girls who were always arguing. Meanwhile, all the other players who were in the battle gathered together. Lee Seo-hee and Yong Se-ha also returned soon. His mother and the other civilians had been moved to a safe place far from the commotion.
“That was remarkable, Hyeong-nim. You were great.”
“He’s right. They would’ve never caught the monsters without you.”
“Well, yes. Thanks to you.”
“Who are you!?”
“China’s Jin So-woon.”
When Jung Si-woo was seen talking freely with Lee Seo-hee and other members of the group, other players, who were unable to speak to him because they were afraid of his inhumane performance, began to sing praise to him one by one.
“He was wearing a strange mana shield. If Mr. Jung hadn’t removed it…”
“If it weren’t for the huge hammer, countless people would have died.”
“There is a strong man like you among us so that we couldn’t lose hope.”
“You saved New York!”
One word from here and two words from there. People began to applaud because words weren’t enough…Si-woo was a little embarrassed.
“Oh my, do we have to make a third impact?”
“It’s the other way around, right!?”
However, it wasn’t a situation where they should be receiving applauses. There were quite a few players who were seriously injured, and there was heavy civilian damage. As soon as the monster’s death was confirmed, police and ambulances were moving busily. And among them, the most important thing…
“Mr. Jung!”
A very handsome blond Westerner approached Jung Si-woo.
“I’d like to talk about the distribution of loot.”
His identity was Albino Lagario, the master of the Italian guild “Blue Rose.” In terms of level alone, he was higher than Kim Ha-ryong, and he was one of the key players who damaged the monster’s body in this battle. Of course, it was all possible because Jung Si-woo disturbed the monster’s mana.
“We need to share it fairly.”
Jung Si-woo tilted his head and nodded. Lagario’s expression brightened from his reply. This was because he was worried that Jung Si-woo would try to take all the loot for himself.
“What do you usually do in this case, Ah-rin?”
“Oppa, it’s the first time in the world that we’re experiencing a giant monster’s loot distribution.”
“Ah.”
Come to think of it; he finally understood why Lagario approached him with a troubled look. Since there was no precedent, it was inevitable to leave it up to the most legitimate and rightful person.
“Hmmmmm…”
Jung Si-woo looked at the monster’s body, which was revealed outside. The neck, plus its thick and huge head combined, reached more than 30 meters, and he couldn’t imagine how huge the body would be if it weren’t still trapped inside the earth. He wanted to take it all out and look at it, but then he didn’t even know how long it would take. Honestly, he didn’t want to spend more time here.
“Okay, let’s do it this way.”
Jung Si-woo thought about it for a while and soon nodded. Not only the group but all the people in the area, including Kim Ha-ryong, were paying attention to him.
“I’ll cut off its neck and take it, so you guys can split the leftovers by yourselves.”
“What!?”
“No, wait…”
Monsters’ mana stones were often distributed mainly in the heart or brain, and Jung Si-woo confirmed that the monster’s mana stone was actually inside his brain. In other words, Jung Si-woo was saying that he would take the mana stone.
“Yes…that makes sense.”
However, those who were opposed to him immediately convinced themselves and nodded. The body of the monster, which was revealed on the ground, would be only the tip of the iceberg, and no matter how much the mana stone was worth, it wouldn’t be a big loss if they considered that Jung Si-woo contributed most.
“The Mana stone, hmm…I can’t do anything about it.”
“Yes, you can’t.”
Others left, but only Kim Ha-ryong seemed to have a lot to say. But due to Jung Si-woo’s intrusion and performance, his contribution was eventually reduced to a level that was no different from the other rankers, so he ended up shutting up.
“Se-ha, let me borrow your spear. The blade is sharp, right?
“Yes, yes, it’s heavy, but the blade is sharp.”
While everyone acknowledged Jung Si-woo’s priority and backed away, Kim Ha-ryong was gritting his teeth near the body until the last minute, but even he had to step back when Jung Si-woo prepared to swing the sharp-edged skeleton bone lance offered by Yong Se-ha. Jung Si-woo smiled at the sight.
‘It’s because the body and the mana stone should have been mine. If the next batter appears, you can try your best. I don’t know when that will happen.’
Even Jung Si-woo didn’t think that such a monster could appear on earth without any difficulty. If they could have sent more monsters like this, the earth would’ve ended already. It didn’t matter if there was a problem on the other side of the world or the earth. There was a limit to the appearance of monsters. Jung Si-woo had a hunch that perhaps monsters with this much strength were less likely to appear on earth for the time being.
“Whooo…”
Jung Si-woo took a deep breath in front of the monster’s body, which had its neck and arms straight out. Perhaps because he raised his super strength skill to level 4, his ability to deal with the body has fundamentally changed by developing the five senses skill, and even though he didn’t raise mana much, his arm strength was incredible.
“Hoo…hop!”
He stretched out his arm, holding the lance, and at the same time fired mana forward. The skeleton bone lance moved at a terrifying speed and cut the dead monster’s neck off.
“Ahhhhhhh! Blood!”
“So this won’t work, huh? Hap!”
Of course, the thick neck couldn’t be cut through all at once, but Jung Si-woo managed to completely separate the monster’s neck by hitting it twice, three times in a row. The thick neck and head of the monster, which resembled a lizard, rolled briefly on the floor before being stored in Jung Si-woo’s inventory after he touched it. One minor problem was that the poison trapped in the body poured over Jung Si-woo while cutting off the head.
[You came into contact with Luinos’s Baby Lizard poison but managed to overcome it with the power of poison resistance Lv10.]
[Poison resistance has reached Lv11.]
“Wow.”
It was kind enough to tell the name of the monster that Jung Si-woo had killed. At the same time, two kinds of terror struck him. The first was that the monster he had killed was just a “baby” of the monster called the Luinos Lizard, and the second was how terrible the poison inside was to make his poison resistance grow again.
“Oppa, are you okay?”
“I’m fine. But…it’s very poisonous, so be careful.
“How did you endure that?”
“Poison Resistance Level 10…no, it’s because I’m already level 11. So don’t try to do what I just did.”
In the first place, resistance skills were a reward for a special achievement for most players, and it wasn’t easy to grow them to level 10, so most of the rankers here didn’t meet such requirements. They would have to use their top players in order to dismember the body.
“Okay, then I’ve done everything I have to do…”
With everyone’s eyes still on him, Jung Si-woo stretched after returning the lance to Yong Se-ha. People looked at him as he climbed onto the phantom bike without hesitation.
“Do whatever’s left on your own.”
“Come on, wait, Si-woo! Let’s have dinner together…!”
“Si-woo!”
“Si-woo, let me serve you.”
Marina, Seria, and Lee Seo-hee were surprised because he looked like he was going to leave, but Jung Si-woo shook his head firmly.
“You have to get that body distribution right. I’m sorry, but I’m tired from using so much strength during the battle, so I have to go first. I’ll call you later.”
But that wasn’t the real reason. He wanted to get away from the women who bothered him, but it was fortunate that he had an excuse! Marina stamped her foot unconvinced, but Seria dragged her back.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t serve you in person. See you in Korea.”
“See you later, Si-woo.”
Lee Seo-hee also lightly stepped back after realizing that there was something he had to do without them knowing. As things went that way, Marina also said bye, even though she was grumpy.
“I’ll ask what’s going on later. Hmph!
“Come on, wait. Mr. Jung! Can I get an interview…!”
“Mr. Jung!”
“Jung Si-woo!”
Other people followed, but Jung Si-woo had already driven off with his phantom bike with Soo Ah-rin and Yong Se-ha. The remaining people, including Kim Ha-ryong, were just staring blankly at his back. Jung Si-woo’s debut on the world stage ended, and it later became a legend.
