After HyungSeok and HyeJin went to the store, the number of customers who came for an appraisal decreased significantly.

In fact, they were still waiting for their turn, but whats happening became more comfortable.

Kim HyungSeok registered a reservation system on Hunternet, put a donation there, and make a reservation to receive Yoo Ji-Has appraisal.

Of course, they can ignore this procedure and go straight to the store.

However, since the single number hunters and influential figures such as the associations and guild leaders all agreed, it was generally accepted by all.

One article posted on the free bulletin board of Hunternet led the mood.

Kim HyungSeok: Shouldnt rare animals be well protected and raised? Lets build a system to protect Yoo Ji-Ha. If he collapses from overwork, it is all our responsibility and loss.

Although Kim HyungSeoks article compares a person to an animal, it revealed importance of the system.

However, foreigners are excluded from this reservation system.

The security team, including HyungSeok, tried to block the rumors as much as possible, but it seemed that they were unable to completely stop the rumors, so articles started to appear on the Hunternets of foreign countries.

Expressions such as unbelievable and exaggerated followed.

Hunters with appraisal skills exist, but it seemed unimaginable that there would be a hunter who would do it for free.

Thats what youre aiming for right? Make several rumors and spread them. Its a smoke screen operation.

Fortunately, the existence of Yoo Ji-Ha was not immediately revealed perhaps because exchanges between countries were quite difficult.

Hunternets in Japan and China are scoffing at Korean hunters that they are starting to talk nonsense again.

One day they too will be shocked to find out the truth, but it doesnt matter.

HyeongSeok did his best to block the information by mobilizing the funds of the Goryeo group.

Yoo Ji-Ha didnt know these things.

Because he was a merchant selling potions and scrolls in a small general store.

As soon as he opens the store door in the morning, he will be met face-to-face with a few hunters who have been waiting for him.

Hello. Its not yet opening time.

It doesnt matter. Well wait.

He couldnt do anything else in front of crowd, so Yoo Ji-Ha had to open at 7 oclock.

I have to buy one potion?

Just buy all of them. You can buy one for each type.

No, I wanted that first.

What do you want to do? The one who picks it up is the owner.

As soon as the store opened, the shelves started emptying.

This is serious.

We shouldnt run out of potions in the morning.

When Yoo Ji-Ha went to studio to pick up extra potions, and Beom came up to the table and stared at the waiting hunter for a long time.

Oh, its Beom. You dont look like an ordinary cat Are you a snow leopards baby?

Wow. 

Beom gently pressed his hand on the table with his paw.

He panicked and handed him a bar-shaped preserved food.

Tak.

But Beom, as if he didnt want it, struck it with his paw

You dont like this? What do you want?

Beom put his head in his arms and sniffed.

Then, he hit the exact spot where the wallet was with his front paw.

Money? Are you talking about money?

Hunters who were waiting in the back giggled and said-

Haha. This is a poisonous cat.

Well, since the owner is not materialistic, he needs this cat.

The reservation fee is cheap, so lets give it a little bit. Dealing with people is not easy.

How about 100,000 won each so it can eat something delicious?

So, the consultation fee in Yoo Ji-Ha was set at 100,000 won while he was away.

Beom slowly walked among the people, picked up 100,000 won each, put it in his mouth, and disappeared somewhere.

Ji-Ha came out with a basket, put it on the table, and started appraising.

Huh? Did something good happen?

The hunters across him laughed.

You Cat is very smart.

Haha. Hes smarter than me. The full-block characteristic of this shield is

While Yoo Ji-Ha was busy with appraising, Beom who was hiding in the corner of the studio puts money in the drawer and organize it.

Afterward, Ji-Ha who had calculated the bill tilted his head in confusion.

Its strange Why are sales so high?

Beom, who was eating a delicious meal, yawned while sitting on the shelf.

Sometimes, uninvited visitors come to Ji-Has Garden.

In most cases, Theradrones is in charge of driving out the uninvited guests.

However, there were cases where it took a while to finish this process.

In case of powerful monsters, Theradrones couldnt push ahead, find weakness and attack them.

This time, the monster who snuck through the garden beyond the fog wall was quite a powerful monster.

[Outer giant]

It is a disaster grade monster with one eye named by China.

It is difficult to attack because it has a size that surpasses that of an abomination or ogre and has a strong defense.

Sometimes the rays from its eyes boast the power to instantly kill almost any hunter.

This is a dangerous monster, but because of Chinese Hunter system was so closed that other countries could only know about its existence.

Anyway, more than 300 Theradrones corps gathered to stop him.

It is a bit strange considering that the Theradrones that appeared in Mt. Jiri slaughtered thousands of monsters.

If you go outside, youll be greatly strengthened, wont you?

It is similar when monsters are strengthened when the dungeon reaches catastrophe and come out.

Yoo Ji-Ha roughly came to a conclusion while waiting for the message.

But it didnt show up.

The status window was as still as usual.

While Yoo Ji-Ha was restless, the Theradrone corps collided with the outsider.

Hyuk.

Even the Theradrone Knight, which possessed a large size, could not withstand the attack of the giant.

He fell out of the battlefield, his wings trembled and drooped.

It was truly a destructive force.

If the Outer giant wields a bat, the surroundings will be devastated.

No matter which Theradrone it is, if it is hit correctly, it will be healed and will attack the enemy in one shot.

The Theradrones, who felt overwhelmed, changed their strategy.

Instead of charging recklessly, they began to bit a piece of wood from the world tree with their tongs and started using it as a shield.

When a few guys pushed the large shield firmly with their tongs and pushed it in, the giant roared and slammed on the ground.

A shock wave spread and the Theradrones were blown up like a piece of paper.

This is no joke.

Yoo Ji-Ha looked to see what role Beom would play, but he was just sleeping.

He seems unaware of the fog wall.

Fortunately, even the one-eyed giants attack did not pierce the shield of the World Tree.

The fist sized monster, which is angry, pushed the Theradrones with his body.

Yoo Ji-Ha was sorry to see the Theradrons corps falling like autumn leaves.

Why doesnt the message appear?

Why, when such a powerful monster appeared, it was silent.

But the Theradrone Corps did not budge.

Dozens of them rushed in to block the advance of the one-eyed giant, and some spread their wings and flew up to attack his eyes.

Kuuoooooo!

As the Outergiant roared, the surrounding air was blown away.

Seeing that the Theradrones momentarily lost their power, it seemed as if they had been covered by some unclean energy.

Eventually, the Outer giants eyes began to turn red and bloodshot.

What are you trying to do?

A single ray of light shot out from the eyes of the one-eyed giant.

The monstrous ray was enough to evaporate a few Theradrones and it cut down hundreds of trees.

It was so destructive.

I have to stop that somehow.

It seemed almost impossible to dodge because of the instantaneous power.

The Theradrones who had been hit with a monster beam from the front, still bravely rushed at him.

A fierce close quarter battle took place.

At that time, the Knight pointed something with his head, and Theradrones at the rear brought a large ether stone.

What are you going to do with that?

Yoo Ji-Ha was astonished.

Knight started cutting the ether stone with his tongs.

Its quite easy to process the ether stone from a human point of view but he didnt expect the Theradrone to cut them.

The Theradrone Knight fired a weak shot at the surfaced of the cut ether stone.

Then the surface of the ether stone turned into a mirror.

Oh, is it a refection?

The knight with a golden shield approached the giant.

The moment the Theradrones scattered, and his large eyes fired a mysterious ray, the ether stone shield reflected perfectly.

Chugok!

There was a strange noise and the arms and shoulder of the Outer giant were cutoff.

He was bleeding profusely and in agony.

Wow!

It was an incredible sight to see.

He cant believe they thought of using an ether stone as a shield and cutting and processing it.

Theradrones without missing the timing, attacked all at once.

Victory was certain.

The deficit is small.

Yoo Ji-Ha dont know about the one-eyed giants, but he thought hed write something about it to use someday.

In the Infinite Spellbook, the method by how the Theradrones defeated the Outer giant was written.

Outer giants Approximately about 15 meters tall. Possesses destructive power and defensive power to match with its size. Any defensive barrier will not be able to stop him from attacking. In particular, his roar seems to have a hidden wave that makes you lose energy Roughly  His one eye emits a strange ray of light and there is only one way to block it. This method is-

When Yoo Ji-Ha has written this far, Beom woke up and pulled his pants.

Huh? You want to play? Oh, no. Thats right. The Theradrones need to be treated first.

It was not the time to write this.

Yoo Ji-Ha welcomed the victorious Theradrones into the garden.

As he stroked their senses one by one, their wings fluttered happily.

And the Theradrone Knights, who played a decisive role, proudly raised its horns and tongs.

Arent they really reliable?

The news of several outer giants dungeons appeared in Sichuan, China appeared on the Korean HunterNet.

But due to the terribly closed nature of China, detailed information could not be obtained.

A few hunters were complaining on the free bulletin board.

Hyunseung: Theyre just going to eat it all by themselves because Chinese people are really known about their selfishness.

Shin YeRi: The problem is that it cannot be solve properly while hiding it. Did you see the satellite photos leaked from the association? I heard that the nearby defense division moved. Uh, its a waste of oil.

Lee HyungJong: It must have caused a catastrophe by not being able to stop it. How many more hunters died in battle?

Considering the situation, it seemed clear that a catastrophe has occurred.

Hunters were playing around, but they were a little nervous.

Because there is no guarantee that the same dungeon wont appear in Korea.

Everyone was criticizing the Chinese Hunters Association for not disclosing information.

Only the height, danger and appearance were known about the outer giant.

Photos taken by an American intelligence satellite, confirmed it to be a large monster with a height of about 15m.

However, it is difficult to grasp his ability.

If it has powerful regeneration ability like an abomination, they will need to mobilize an artillery unit to continuously fire, but it didnt seem like it.

Hyun SeungAh, with her legs on the desk, pounded on the keyboard, swearing at China.

Information I need information.

She accessed satellite communication and search various countries hunternet, but did not find any unusual information.

Finally, in Mirwiki.

Well, Im sure theres nothing.

But when she looked at the paged, she saw a strange pop-up window.

[You need 10 Essence to acquire partial information about the OuterGiant. Would you like to pay YES/NO]

She almost fell but straightened herself.

What is this?

When did this system come into existence on Mirwiki?

Paying 10 essences? What kind of robbery is this?

Its information about an Outer giant. SeungAh, you have to see this.

SeungAh closed her eyes tightly and pressed YES.

A waste of essence, but she can hunt again.

Then, a page with detailed descriptions of the external appearance, attack methods, and defense power of the outer giant appeared.

Great, great.

SeungAh was thrilled and happy when she saw the last sentence.

The only eye emits a strange beam of light, and there is a way to stop it.

Yes, yes, how about the way?

The method is-

That was the end.

No matter how much she searched and look at the screen, there was no more content.

SeungAh slammed the desk in heat.

What the fuck is that method!
