Minjun summoned a water spirit to make a fine rain fall over the hunters’ heads. Ha Sungwook was delighted, saying the poison was gone and the jerky tasted good. The other hunters also thanked him and drank the water.77d0eace9e3e0d21

Intruders?29965d8cb7535fde

Out of habit, 9b1cdb205e Minjun had stationed a37f86775b spirits at the a6e344377d dungeon entrance as 6f0423be02 guards. Since the 95529a6a88 wind spirit d96ea6de8c was with ca8fcb3f9a Choi Euiseong, 827f0a4448 he summoned 274da2e6de the earth b0e2558de1 spirit. Thanks to this, 040fb9bea1 Minjun realized in cfd3f53642 real-time that two 746f68582b hunters using stealth 39060ad856 skills had entered ad36548b75 the dungeon.59d4c7c1ee68a3d9

They didn’t seem like thieves. He couldn’t see what the hunters using stealth skills looked like, but the spirits conveyed that the two hunters were moving swiftly and nimbly.057552254f861755

To enter a dungeon, one needed permission from the hunter or guild that had won the management rights. However, thieves targeting dungeons for magic stones and various items had always been a problem. Dungeon entry quotas were generally generous, and the system didn’t notify anyone if new people entered the dungeon late. Many thieves exploited this loophole.cc21a38236dbf84a

Usually, thieves targeted lower-level dungeons with lax surveillance. Although National Security Agency staff or guild members guarded the gates, it wasn’t foolproof. They couldn’t prevent someone from sneaking into the dungeon using stealth skills.8debf20a6c04b151

Most thieves harvested herbs 1606852001 or minerals inside the 4d757d2426 dungeon. Some dealt with remaining b88d6946c0 monsters and collected magic 591079b61d stones. And although they 5ff3b5e9c8 were a small 80dce87b1b minority, there were 6c7dcdd01e also malicious people 83dfe9bbb1 who target hunters. These scoundrels aimed d14110d29a for the items 953627257a and magic stones d13c1f3d07 hunters carried. Or sometimes, the hunters 079c4d8e27 themselves were the target.fef8832838e2abee

The intruders who had just entered the dungeon gave off a bad vibe. If they had infiltrated all the way to the Capital Defense Command headquarters, it was clear they weren’t just here to steal items. They moved swiftly and in perfect coordination, as if they had a specific goal. The earth spirit’s reactions indicated that their ranks were quite high.557b1e89d84be507

If the intruders were 7d6aca2ddb targeting this place, preparations 7a031d681e were necessary. Minjun gauged the 13fb0474d3 distance between them 7081e2297d and the intruders 79fb1419f6 and stood next 310a769306 to Soohyuk.b3d48d48f3cb006a

Minjun tilted his head in confusion. It was true that Soohyuk rarely called him by his name, but he was curious why it was being brought up now. On the other hand, Soohyuk was mulling over a realization he had just come to. Ha Sungwook calling him “Minjun-ah” had been bothering him. He then realized he almost never called Minjun by his name properly.9e5e5c3846bb4df0

The reason was clear. It felt disrespectful to casually call hunter Kim Minjun by his name. But the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was unfair that Ha Sungwook could do it and he couldn’t.99a6b458b11b16f1

The rain created by the spirit was so fine it was almost like a mist. Raindrops clung to Minjun’s hair and nose as he stood there without an umbrella or raincoat. His pale face and light-colored eyes formed a harmonious look, still retaining a soft, downy appearance.7a4f3a3ea8fdf4a8

Just as Minjun had said, two intruders were rapidly approaching their location. Both were A-class. As expected, their ranks were quite high, and Soohyuk clicked his tongue. Intruders entering a dungeon beneath the Capital Defense Command weren’t just after some loot.41e0895a2ddde40d

Soohyuk had quite a few enemies. From journalists who had filed lawsuits to politicians who had made slanderous remarks, the list was diverse. While they couldn’t enter the dungeon themselves, they could easily hire someone to do it. Hunters were no different.d405b3c93ad6dcca

Unlike Korea, where c2534464dd most hunters were 97222e1363 registered with the 0c1f899160 government, in lawless 69588b0f9b foreign lands, hunters acb9aa6c6b who killed for bbc413ff83 money operated openly.
