Bounty Hunter
Ark didn’t have much knowledge about the Giran region yet. Even when he spread out the map and looked at it, it was almost completely covered in black fog. He had first come to Giran through the Grey Ridge shortcut, and after that he had lived holed up in the blind auction house. Then, the event quest had started right afterwards, so he had no time to hunt. That’s why he stopped by a General Store before leaving Giran to buy some maps. In the case of large cities like Giran, if you bought a map with the geography and information about nearby hunting grounds, new info would be added automatically.
Based on that information, there was a diversity in hunting grounds around Giran. There were forest, plains, swamp, and mountain regions, and depending on the region, the monsters that appeared varied vastly and ranged from level 50-100 as well. This was a perfect place for low leveled players to level up after leaving Jackson Territory.
‘Let’s see. The Old Forest where the Silver Arrow thief gang is…’
When he checked the map, it was marked as a level 60-80 area.
‘It’s a reasonable level.’
Ark was currently level 78. He felt it was a bit easy, since he had hunted monsters stronger than him until now, but since his goals were information collection and bounty hunting anyway, the easier it was, the better.
Ark moved to his destination along the road. When he travelled on a paved road, an additional effect of +20% movement speed was added. Therefore, he could minimize travel time. Thanks to that, Ark reached his destination in just 30 minutes.
Trees of enormous width were packed closely in the Old Forest, where the Silver Arrow thief gang was hiding.
“It’s meat…! Fresh… human meat!”
When he entered the forest, three Trolls appeared as if they had been waiting,. Ark’s eyes flashed.
‘This is good. I wanted to try out the Deadly Poison skill before I encounter the thief gang.’
“Grrrrrr, DIE!”
Claaang!
Shrieking, a Troll swung its club. But, being in the early level 70s, the Troll was already no match for Ark.
“Dedric, Skull. Buy me some time.”
“Huhuhu, playing with such a slow fellow is no problem.”
Clack clack clack!
Dedric and Skull replied confidently as they attacked the Troll. With that opening, Ark dodged the club with light footwork and fell back. Then he fed Snake the ingredients he had confirmed as poisonous, having gathered them since entering the forest. A short while afterwards, light blue fluid flowed out of Snake’s fangs. It was venom made with the Deadly Poison Production skill.
Swish, ka-chink!
When he spread the venom on the blade, the blade’s surface turned blue with an eerie sound effect.
You have applied Neurotoxin (Beginner) to Lancel’s Sword.
If the enemy is hit with an attack, the nerves of the struck region will be paralyzed for 5 seconds (5 uses).
