Chapter: 88

Crack-

The pristine white snow left clean footprints on the ice.

The chill he felt on his skin wasn’t far from the reality.

Creak-

As they walked downstream, a monster on the path approached.

[Ice Spider (Lv. 33)]

A spider with a translucent blue glow all over its body.

Hanbit’s target was the frost-covered fangs.

Its red eyes glared at Hanbit. Its sharp legs were enough to tear an enemy apart.

Hanbit stretched out his hand and muttered an incantation.

“Fire Burst.”

Boom-!

The fireball hit its target immediately and caused a large explosion.

When the flames dispersed, the spider was nowhere to be seen.

Ding-!

[You have received 300 experience points.]

-Look at this stingy experience;

-Field mobs are always like this.

-Why is the firepower of a 2nd rank skill like this?

-Is it a bug?

-Bug hunters, welcome.

-New viewers are cute.

The newly joined viewers showed surprised reactions.

The original viewers were acting territorial, but even they didn't know the truth.

This power was one of the results of the experience he had accumulated over the years, manifested as a title.

"Hmm, as expected, it didn't appear."

Nothing was dropped where the monster had disappeared.

Even the most basic materials weren't that easy to obtain.

Swoosh-

Hanbit looked around and drew his sword. He immediately used the attribute Manifestation.

Whoosh-

Preheating began with a strong heat.

As he watched, a question came to mind.

He immediately opened the title list.

[55 Times Recorder]

The experience accumulated by the recorder is unlocked.

The proficiency of all experienced skills increases extremely rapidly. Performance is adjusted upward according to the degree of experience.

All spirit affinities are activated, and the effects of the spirit's power increase dramatically.

You are free from the wearing and use conditions of all items you have used. However, the performance degradation due to stat differences is maintained, and the value is minimized.

Not unlocked (Keyword: NPC)

‘Proficiency is increasing.’

The effect of the title was limited to experience.

However, the recently acquired hidden skill, ‘Manifestation', was a power that even Hanbit had used for the first time. It was even a spirit skill, so both items 1 and 2 applied.

Whoosh-

Even though it was a skill that couldn't be used often, he could already feel a change.

Not only did his stats increase, but if his proficiency was fully filled, wouldn't it show considerable power?

‘Sylph can hardly materialize anymore.’

Since obtaining attribute Manifestation, the spirit's wind had naturally been playing a supporting role.

He missed the cheerful chirping of a bird, but now was not the time for that. He could only be truly grateful to Sylph.

"I'll keep going." Hanbit moved on, heading downstream

Avantgarde went ahead and quickly cleaned up the monsters he encountered along the way.

After about 10 minutes of walking, they arrived in front of a sunken ice floor.

“You wanted to come here. I’ve passed by here a few times.” Avantgarde, who had traveled everywhere, had also been to this place.

However, there was nothing special about this place except for the scenery. Hanbit looked at the icy floor and drew his sword.

“There’s something called a nest in this world.”

“A nest... Do you mean the dwelling place of flying monsters?”

“No, it's not limited to a type of monster. It's a place where monsters are born and grow abnormally.”

“Huh? A place like that...”

Whoosh-!

At that moment, a gust of wind mixed with the flames rising from Hanbit's blue-white sword.

He slowly slid down the icy floor, saying, "Come down first."

"Got it!"

Quickly understanding, Avantgarde followed him down.

The two of them moved a little further and stood at the center of the ice floor.

"I'm going to drop down."

"Huh?"

Crack-!

In an instant, Hanbit's blue-white sword plunged into the ice floor.

At the same time, the flames spread out strongly.

Whoosh-!

The immense heat melted the thick layer of ice at once.

And then.

Whoosh-!

The two people who were standing on top fell down.

"Woohoo!"

Avantgarde let out a joyful scream at the sudden situation.

Meanwhile, Hanbit focused on the sight that unfolded at the end of his feet.

Swish-

A huge underground space with a soft purple glow.

It was densely packed with white grains.

"No way... Are they all Ice Spiders!"

Avantgarde, who was falling excitedly, realized the identity of the grains.

There were probably hundreds, if not thousands of them.

-Wow, f*ck

-So disgusting;

-Was there a place like this?

-Who's breaking the bottom of the glacier?

-What are those silk lumps?

-Cocoons?

The chat window quickly filled up with astonished reactions.

Some viewers' eyes were drawn to the white silk lumps.

As someone had said, those were cocoons.

Inside, sleeping spiders were probably alive and breathing.

‘There are more than last time.’

Including the cocoons, the number of spiders was approximately 2,000.

It was enough to obtain the special materials he needed.

"Where are you going to land!"

The two were still falling through the air.

Avantgarde was looking for a place to land.

But there was no need.

"Let’s start."

"Huh?"

Whirl-!

Hanbit, holding his sword with both hands, took a stance.

‘Let's just focus on firepower.’

Precision was meaningless.

All he needed now was pure firepower.

Just the power to deal with many enemies.

Whoosh-!

The flames, which had almost reached their limit, and the sweeping wind produced a strong hot wind.the raging wind spewed out a violent hot wind.

The target was the place where he could most effectively hit the spiders and cocoons below.

Whoosh-!

As he fell, Hanbit focused on the distance to the approaching ground.

And the moment he passed the predetermined position.

Swish-!

He swung his sword with all his might.

Whoosh-!

A fiery whirlwind that obscured his vision.

The attack, which landed instantly, covered the ground at once.

Bang-bang-bang-!

"Ugh!"

Avantgarde's posture was disturbed by the recoil of the heat.

Meanwhile, Hanbit, who had been pushed sideways, kicked off the wall and rushed down.

"Fire Burst!"

Boom-!

He had already put in his mind the area that was not engulfed by the heat.

Hanbit stretched out his hands to each location and continued to cast magic.

Bang-!

Boom-!

The nest was now a mess, to the point where he could hardly see in front of him.

"Fire Burst!"

Boom-!

Hanbit, who had uttered the last incantation, finally stopped casting magic.

And then a message announcing the result came.

[You have received 650,400 experience points.]

[Your level has increased by 7.]

[You have been awarded 7 stat points.]

-No way, lol.

-650k?

-How many did you kill?

-About 2,100?

-Is this a nest?

[FieldGhost has donated 10,000 won.]

[I'm camping outside the nest from today.]

[FireCharisma has donated 50,000 won.]

[Wow, that's crazy;]

The viewers' eyes lit up at the enormous experience points.

While their feelings were understandable, it was a futile hope.

Thud-!

Landing on the ground, Hanbit looked at the ruined nest.

And he conveyed the unfortunate fact.

"A destroyed nest can't be used. It would be better to find a new one."

-Where do you find that;

-You mean there are more?

-I'm buying nest coordinates.

-Sold.

-?

The chat window became noisy again.

Meanwhile, Avantgarde also arrived next to him.

"It was truly spectacular. To see you wipe out that many monsters firsthand..."

His voice was full of excitement.

Even though he hadn't gained anything because the experience points were distributed 100 to 0, his eyes shone purely.

Hanbit turned his gaze to the area where the monsters had disappeared.

'There it is.'

The ice spider dropped a common material, a leg.

And amidst it, he saw a faint bluish-black light.

It was a characteristic of the frost-covered spider's fang.

Thud-!

Leaping onto the broken ground, Hanbit landed directly on it.

After pushing through the spider legs, he lowered his stance.

[Frost-covered Spider's Fang]

Rank: 2

Grade: Hero

Description: A fang that only a very small number of Ice Spiders possess. Handle with care, as touching it incorrectly can cause freezing and paralysis.

The description of the dark blue fang was exactly the same as Hanbit's knowledge.

Putting it in his inventory, he got up.

"Should I collect the legs too."

There were hundreds of legs left from over 2,000 ice spiders.

Of course, it would be good to keep them, but it wasn't easy to pick them up.

"Ah, I'll pick these up instead."

At that moment, Avantgarde, who had followed behind, took a pouch out of his inventory.

Hanbit asked in a slightly surprised tone, seeing it, "Is that a sandstorm pouch?"

"You know it, right? It's an item I got as a quest while traveling the central region. It's a very helpful item for hunting."

The magical artifact, the sandstorm pouch. It had the function of sucking in things that are exactly the same as what is put inside.

It was an essential item for large-scale hunting like this.

-He has this;

-As expected of a travel streamer.

-Are there 100 of these on the server?

-The upper advance team probably got them early.

Swish-

Avantgarde immediately put the spider legs into the pouch.

At the same time, a wind began to be sucked into the pouch.

Whoosh-

The legs in the nest were instantly sucked into the pouch.

It took less than a minute to finish the job.

Thanks to the party, the ownership of the items was naturally shared.

"Thank you. It ended easily."

"I'll give it to you as a gift."

Avantgarde offered the pouch without a second thought.

However, Hanbit shook his head.

"It's okay. I'll get a similar item later. It's enough if you just help me until then."

"There was something similar to this. I understand. It's also my pleasure to help."

With that conversation, the two left the nest.

It wasn't difficult at all thanks to the hidden passage on the outskirts.

"I didn't expect to find one so quickly. Do you have any plans for the remaining one?" Avantgarde, who was looking at the path they had come, asked.

The remaining one was the tough hide of the snow flower deer.

Unlike the fang, it required finding a special individual and hunting it.

"I have an idea, but it will take some time. I can't find it right away either."

"I'll do my best to find it too. Then..."

"Wait."

At that moment, a voice came from above the canyon.

There, a hooded man was looking down.

"You are..."

As soon as he saw the face, a memory came to mind.

It was Liwei, the advance team member he had seen in the private area cave.
