Peeing-!

With a sharp rip in the wind, the projectile cracks open the air like a shot with a blue glow.

Phuket -

Rrrrrrrrr

The cold-blooded ogre falls to the ground screaming, glazed at the arrow.

Kung-!

[You have defeated the Ogre. You have gained 5910 XP.]

Jinsung, no. Ian takes a deep breath and slowly approaches the corpse of the ogre.

“Okay, now we're slowing down. ”

Ian takes his hand, and the ogre's corpse turns gray and disappears.

[Earn 745 Gold from the ‘Ogre’.]

[Obtain Tough Ogre Hide.]]

Ian opened his inventory by checking emerging system messages.

“I just need to get 100,000 gold and get some rest. ”

At the foot of Mount Kleek, where Ian was hunting, was a hunting ground populated by Ogres, nicknamed ‘Ogre Field’ among users.

The average level of Ogres is about 80.

It may have been an easy hunting ground for Ian, who is currently a level 93, but it was always a party hunt.

Based on Soloplay, Mount Kleek was one of the toughest hunting grounds for top rankers.

The ogre was extremely strong and destructive compared to the monsters in the same level.

Moreover, it was a more efficient choice to gather parties in the high-level hunting grounds for level-up purposes, but Ian had his reasons for solo play on Mount Kleek.

This was the best place he could think of as Gold Nogada.

Kailan had a system that would cash the game itself.

Not only did they buy game money for cash, they also sold it.

The system was transparently operated on almost the same principle as the real world bank, and goods in Kailan were worth almost as much as cash.

Currently, the cash rate for gold on the basis of the Kailan currency exchange system is around 1: 2. The amount of gold given by Ogres is on average around 800 gold.

It was about 1,600 won per Ogre.

An hour or so, Ian's hunting speed, which caught more than 100 animals, was closer to 200,000 won per hour.

Ian still had a habit of saving up money to repay his student loans even after buying the capsule, so he spent about an hour in Gold Nogada these days.

“Let's move again... ”

Ian makes sure there are no ogres left around. He takes a step to move the hunting grounds.

Ian was excited because he sensed that the Dark Composite Bow, which he gained from participating in Drake Raid last week, was speeding up his hunt.

-----------------------------------

Ian shakes his head, checking the status window once.

“Hehe, I've been catching a few ogres since last week, but only six percent. ”

It was about experience.

After reaching level 90, it really took a lot of effort to level up

“I'm not going after these guys for rap ops anyway, but that's a little harsh. ”

Once, Ian grumbled and began exploring the surrounding monsters through Hawkeye, an archer's special skill.

And after a while, Ian was very young.

"What is it? Were there any heroic monsters in Mount Kleek, except the Ogre King?" ’

The location and grade of monsters within a certain range from the user were all visible through Hawkeye.

You have to find out which monsters you're dealing with yourself.

‘Monsters rated Heroes can be a little dangerous... ’

The ogre king, known as the only Hero Rank monster in Mount Click, was a level 95. Of course, Ian had also caught the Ogre King, but not alone.

‘What to do.... ’

Ian ponders: With the exception of the designated fieldboss, it was extremely rare to find such heroic grade monsters.

Monsters of a hero rank that appear randomly in the field were almost always very likely to drop good items.

“Go first! ”

Despite dying, Ian's experience required for level-up will reset and evaporate into thin air for a week, but giving up such a good opportunity was not his style of play.

Ian slowly moved to the location of the Hero Rank monster, confirming that all skill cooldowns were activated.

And a few moments later, the monster in his vision was a Twin-Head Ogre that was more than three times the size of a normal Ogre.

"What the hell was he like? ’

Ian's determination burns even more with the appearance of rare monsters he's never heard of.

Ian calmly pulls the trap out and places it in a few places. It was an expensive consumable item I had for catching Hero monsters.

‘Phew, I didn't expect to use this so soon. ’

I bought this to use, but I had no choice but to use it for some reason.

It was the ultimate trap of 50,000 gold per dog.

“Well, you could use just one part of the Ogre Warrior Set... ”

The Ogre Warrior Set was the item with the cheapest footwear valued at 1.3 million gold.

If the Ogre Warrior Set fell, it was not just profitable, it was awesome.

Ian takes out his bow and aims for the ogre's head.

[Activates the 'Weak Spot’ skill. Shows the target's weakness, increases Accuracy by 40% and Critical Hit Chance by 37%. Attacks weaknesses for an extra 255% damage]

[Activates the 'Poisonous Arrow’ skill. Target's Movement is slowed by 10% for 10 seconds and HP is continuously decreased on hit.]

Peeing-!

The arrow that leaves Ian's hand hits the ogre's forehead precisely, and the Twin-Headed Ogre, who finds Ian, starts rushing towards him with a furious roar.

Quore-!!

Ian's eyes widen slightly as he looks at the target, even though it's the size of a collector's block.

‘Definitely different from regular Ogres. Hurry up...! ’

Even a king ogre belonged to a very dull side of the movement, whether it was because of the nature of the ogre.

Like a Hero rank monster, Health and Attack were superior to other Ogres.

That's why Ian was a little embarrassed, assuming the Twin-Headed Ogre would be slow.

Ian quickly fires an arrow using his speaking skills to lure the ogre into the trap.

Kung-Kung-Kung--

A slight distortion in the ogre's expression, whether it has suffered some sustained damage from addiction.

Blame-!

Ian, who nearly brought the ogre to his destination, quickly climbed up the tree and pulled back the bow protest.

[Activates the 'Explosive Arrow’ skill. Causes an explosion one second after the arrow hits the target, dealing 300% more damage.]

An arrow that leaves Ian's hand hits the ogre's weakness marked in red due to its weakness detection skill.

It was an impressive archery skill, given that the archer's job traits and skills corrected his accuracy.

Kuaang -!

Ian's arrow in the ogre's chest explodes and flinches for a moment.

You've taken 20 times more damage from critical hits, weak spots, and explosive damage boosts, so even hero monsters would have taken as little damage as possible.

But even for a moment, the ogre jumped to Ian's foothills.

And a massive ogre club swarmed towards Ian.

Boom!

The tree where Ian was sitting with a loud noise settled. But Ian had already left his body.

The ogre's wooden club shows its power, and a cool sweat drips down Ian's back.

‘Maybe if I just give him one shot, he'll die...! ’

Ian swallowed a dry saliva.

I needed to be a little more nervous.

Ian rolls the floor avoiding the ogre attack, and the ogre finally steps on Ian's first trap.

Chop-chop!

The ogre roars with a dull hiss of iron.

[Activates Advanced Slow Trap. Target's Movement Speed will decrease 30% for 10 min.]

Overlaps the effects of Poisonous Arrows and causes a total slowdown of 40%.

Ian pulls back at the bow, seeing the ogre clearly slowing down.

[Activates the 'Swiftness’ skill. All moves are 50% faster for 15 minutes.]

Peeing-Ping-Ping-

Ian fires three arrows in a snap with his quick movements corrected by his quick skill.

It was because the ogre had reached the foothills again.

“Phew...”

Ian sighs heavily and constantly harasses the ogre from a distance.

It looked like Ian was toying with the ogre easily, but in reality he wasn't.

Ian's hunt for the Twin-Head Ogre was almost a one-way trip.

I can go to goal with just one shot....

In fact, the archer and the wizard were known for their very difficult solo work. Basically, when it came to melee warfare, there were a lot of situations that became helpless.

A system message appeared in front of Ian, who was fighting the ogre for a long time.

[‘Swiftness’ skill has 1 minute remaining.]

“Hmmm... ”

Ian lets out a low groan.

Once the effects of the Swiftness Skill were complete, there was a huge swarm of people moving forward in the battle. Somehow, I had to see the battle in a minute.

‘There's only one trap left. Stun Trap….'

Ian's head begins to spin fiercely.

In a short amount of time, he flew to float the battle.

“This way, you disgusting bastard. ”

Ian fires arrows in a row, provoking the ogre, and the slow-moving ogre lunges at him fiercely.

And….

Chop-chop!

You hear the last of the traps firing.

[Activates Advanced Stun Trap. Stuns target and becomes defenseless for 5 seconds.]

As the trap kicked in, Ian bent one knee and took a firm stance.

The ogre in the trap is stunned and standing still, Ian aiming his bow at the weakness of the red glowing ogre.

[Activates the 'Enhance Critical Hit’ skill. Increases damage by 300% if hit with a critical hit.]

[Activates‘ Sniping ’skill. Cannot move for 10 seconds, 400% Atk.]

[Activates the 'Focus’ skill. Increases attack power by proportion to target's focus time while you are under the Bow Protest. (Max Increase - 500%)]

Ian used all of his current buff and enhancement skills.

‘It all depends on one shot...! ’

I was certain that if these arrows penetrated the ogre's weakness precisely, he would fall.

Even if he doesn't collapse, he'll be able to keep him at a minimum.

After using even the ‘sniper’ skill, Ian crosses a river that cannot be returned.

If the ogre's remaining life was released from the stunned state because he couldn't hit it properly, Ian would be forced to be trapped for five seconds.

Ian unleashed a bow protest, counting the seconds and maximizing the effectiveness of his focused skills.

You little...!

A ripping sound echoes through the air, and the ogre faints at the same time.

But Ian's arrow had already reached his heart before the ogre could move.

Yeah!

An arrow with Ian's soul force strangles the ogre's weakness, and Ian's subsequent attack flies to the same location two more times.

And with every ounce of life, the massive body of the Twin-Headed Ogre begins to crumble.

Kung-!

The bowl falls to the ground and a heavy sound echoes through it, reminding me of a pleasant system message.

[You have defeated the Twin-Head Ogre. 98500 XP has been obtained.]

“Phew, Phew…. ”

After nearly 30 minutes of fighting, Ian takes a deep breath after defeating the Twin-Headed Ogre.

I was out of luck running for half an hour.

‘Now, let's see what items you dropped…? ’

When I'm more nervous than when I make the final blow...!

Ian puts his hand on the ogre corpse.
