Hunter Academy’s Greatest War God

Episode 422

The Delta Tower, along with the Mega Tower, the landmark of Metro City, was the building with the most floating population in Korea.

It was one of the most valuable lands in Korea as it was a reception area close to the apartments where the wealthy lived and the subway station.

So at the end of the year like usual, there would have been a festive atmosphere with a huge Christmas tree, but now only the yellow police line was surrounding the building.

“How many teams are you already?”

As soon as the promised time came, the city guard’s commander-in-chief looked up at the sky. A black cloud covered the Delta Tower, and the mana concentration on the outer wall of the building instantly increased.

“This is the 4th team. Only 11 level 4 hunters and 2 level 5 hunters are missing.”

“I wish I could have saved the survivors in the morning when the banshees didn’t show up…”

However, no matter how much the search team searched the Delta Tower, they couldn’t find the survivors. The Delta Tower, which was taken over by the Banshees, became a space for supernatural powers at night. So, the only way to save the captives was to attack the dungeon itself.

“Can’t find survivors in the morning, and rather the search team goes missing at night… This is the one.”

The moment the commander-in-chief, a veteran in his 40s, sighed, Yura and Shin Yoo-seong entered the front door on the first floor where the City Guard camped.

“ah-!”

The commander-in-chief’s face brightened as soon as he saw Yura, a 6th-level hunter. On the other hand, Yura doesn’t seem to remember City Guard’s face, so is it old? and showed only slight interest.

“This is the person who served as the commanding officer in the ogre subjugation operation last year! It is a great honor to see you again!”

“ah. okay.”

The high-ranking commander-in-chief was no different from the city guard who checked at the entrance. Despite being in different affiliations with Yura, he showed respect and said hello first.

“I was told the situation roughly. Are you still unable to contact the Hunter team who entered the front?”

However, Yura prioritized grasping the situation of the attack rather than personnel affairs. Yura asked briefly while looking at the Delta Tower where the barrier was formed.

“The communication inside the building explodes, but it seems to be caught. According to the report, it seems that the intelligence is high and the movement is systematized, so maybe a grade adjustment is needed…” The

commander-in-chief expressed concern with a worried face.

“Originally, a dungeon is a place where there are many unexpected situations. What about the holy water you asked me to prepare earlier?”

“Ah, here it is!”

In the box the young city guard held out, there were 100 bottles that looked like eye drops.

“Here, take some with you. I got it for free through Roger-sama’s connections, so don’t be shy.”

Took!

Yoosung Shin accepted the bottle that Roja had thrown him. It seemed like an unusual thing to feel the mana finely.

“What is this?”

“Holy water. You’ll need it to catch the banshee. that was sent by the church. Incumbents usually live by helping each other.

The bottle Shin Yuseong received was first-class holy water sent by the second priest among the Qing apostles. It was just blessing ordinary water through an artifact, but it was a high-priced item that could not be ignored.

“And before you leave, draw this…”

Yura drew a star shape on the dusty floor with her shoe. I asked what Shin Yoo-seong was out of curiosity, but this time he smiled and said, “You’ll find out later.”

“But you’re out of luck. Looking at the information, it seems like a fighter, but from the start, it’s undead. That’s also against a spiritual body like a banshee… I guess it’s wrong to expect it.”

Yura sighed on the stairs filled with only the footsteps of the two of them.

“Did you hear about the information about the Delta Tower?”

“yes. Because the attack has already been delayed for a month. I knew at least that the banshees were appearing.”

Only then did Yura look back.

Even for the first time, he acted harshly, saying that he did not recognize Shin Yoo-seong, but when he entered the dungeon, he rather took care of Shin Yoo-seong as a senior.

Jureuk-suck-tok-tok.

Yura soaked cotton in holy water and applied it to Shin Yoo-seong’s face and the back of her hands.

“If you put it on your body like this, you won’t be able to openly attack it. Holy water is direct to the undead.”

Shin Yoo-seong saw holy water, which was nothing more than ordinary water on the outside. If holy water is so effective against the undead, wouldn’t it be effective even if you drink it by mouth?

Shin Yoo-seong, who was curious, tried to pour holy water into his mouth, but Yu-ra grabbed her hand.

“no. Don’t eat it, because it doesn’t have that effect.”

“…okay.”

When Shin Yoo-sung and Yura arrived on the third floor of the rumor, the gloomy atmosphere from the corridor reached its peak.

It looks like an ordinary department store from the outside, but Shin Yoo-seong, who has a sharp sense of humor, feels that something else is watching.

‘…It was good to ask Sumire in advance through the pocket. If I didn’t know about the Banshee, I wouldn’t have felt it because it was so subtle.’

– I’ve never signed a contract with Banshee, but I know the features!

According to Sumire’s talk over the phone, the banshee was an enemy that hid in objects and slowly gnawed away the life force of the opponent.

It was useful against humans because it was good at long-term warfare and mental attacks, and weak against low-intelligence monsters.

“How dangerous does this dungeon feel to you?”

Shin Yuseong recalled the level of difficulty written in the message before entering the dungeon.

《Warning》

─Gate activation risk level 5

─Type: [Gate]

─Dungeon name: Phantom Dance

ㅡLocation:

Phantom Dance Dungeon’s risk level measured by the Delta Tower Association is level 5. However, the evaluation when the gate first opened was not.

“The warning message that came to the pocket was written as level 5.”

“yes. But the first evaluation here was level 3. Of course, the dispatched Hunter was also Level 3. But now, more than 10 4th graders are missing, and 5th grade hunters also participated in the battle, but failed to capture it. Do you know what this means?”

Shin Yuseong nodded at Yura’s words. There were bosses of this type that were limited to undead and banshee.

“You mean the monsters in Phantom Dance are getting stronger.”

“According to reports, the banshee is absorbing mana from the survivors without killing them. From our point of view, they gave us rice unintentionally.”

Banshee absorbed the life force of ordinary citizens and now it has become exponentially stronger by absorbing the mana of the hunters it captured.

“So, to catch the boss, rescuing the survivors comes first. If you rescue it step by step from the bottom floor, there will be a way.”

“It’s not what we’re looking for. Will you come from the other side first?”

“yes.”

Then, Yura found something and stood tall. Then, Yura carefully looked at one of the walls of the building and picked up the holy water.

“Are you good at finding the wrong picture?”

Although there is no picture to compare like a real find the difference picture, the principle was similar. In order to find out where the banshee was hiding, it was necessary to find foreign objects and spaces.

Booung-! phut!

As he threw his pitch like a baseball player, the glass bottle hit the wall shattered and the holy water splashed in all directions.

– Kyaaah!

Then, with a terrifying scream, the space trembled, and an invisible woman jumped out.

“Quack kiik!”

A banshee that climbs walls and escapes with a flexible quadrupedal gait like a spider.

“Shall we capture it? Seniors?”

Shin Yoo-seong was ready to run out whenever Yura gave an order, but Yura stopped him with a simple gesture.

“no. Leave it to me.”

Yura drew a star in the direction the banshee was fleeing. As the long index finger drew a line, the transparent rectangle neatly trapped the banshee.

Fuck!

When their fingers met, the square barrier disappeared in an instant.

“Okay, I moved it neatly.”

The skill just before was [Space Warp], Yura’s characteristic skill. It was a technique to create a square barrier and move it to the designated coordinates.

“Did you send them to base camp earlier?”

Yooseong Shin remembered the scene where Yura was drawing stars on the floor earlier on the first floor.

“Of course not. That’s where the survivors go.”

But fortunately, the place where Yura sent Banshee was not the base camp.

“Sent to church. 6 blue priests and 6 enemy priests are waiting. It will probably be purified in an instant~ For a spiritual undead like a banshee, that place will be hell.”

The church where Yura warped the Banshee. It also had 4th grade normal priests as well as 6th grade high priests on standby. Unlike Shin Yoo-seong’s hunting method, which purely pursued strength, it was a hunting done in cooperation between groups.

“okay. Then I…”

Now it’s Shin Yoo-seong’s turn.

“Don’t push yourself too hard in the beginning. It’s not easy to spot the hidden banshee.”

Yura didn’t expect much from Shin Yoo-seong, a newcomer with little experience, no matter how much he was in the same 6th grade. Even if the mana of the body is strong, this is a real fight. However, Shin Yuseong calmly put his hand next to his eye and bestowed mana.

‘Find the wrong picture.’

The way the banshee hides is similar to a chameleon in creature comparison. He deceived the opponent’s vision by making his body, a spirit body, similar to the surrounding environment.

In the process, Yura caught Banshee with a small gap that occurred like a mosaic.

‘But if you can see the essence, you don’t have to.’

Shin Yoo-seong’s eyes shone blue. As I slowly raised my concentration, I noticed a fine blue fluff on the wall of the building.

‘A total of five….’

Shin Yuseong calmly counted. Banshee’s mana in hiding was minute enough that even a 6th-level hunter couldn’t detect it, but Shin Yuseong, who used Concentration Enhancement, was different.

Kwajik!

Shin Yoo-seong broke the glass bottle with his hand, and transparent holy water flowed down his hand. Holy water is basically a liquid that can give undead the pain of burning their body.

Chew!

Shin Yoo-seong swung his hand once and shot the holy water like a dagger. The needle-like stream of water accurately hit the five banshees.

– Kyaaah!

– Kihehehe!

Upon touching the holy water, the banshee cried out in agony as if it had been burned. In an instant, five banshees escaped from hiding and even the veteran Yura was taken aback.

“What! Were there five hiding?”

He wondered how good his eyes were, so he caught five banshees he hadn’t even found in an instant.

Joo-wook-!

When Yura swung her entire arm to draw a straight line, all the banshees who were running away like cockroaches in the light were trapped in the barrier.

“…I’m so sorry. The church kids will have a hard time this time too.”

Fuck! Fuck-!

Yura divided the banshee into 2 and 3 and sent them to the church. It was only then that Yura looked back at Shin Yuseong with a serious expression as if he had sensed something.

“…You said your name was Shin Yoo-seong, right?”

Yura called Yoosung Shin by his first name as a rookie.

“As you can see from the fact that the church was also accompanied, this is not the first time I have been to the third floor. This isn’t the first time I’ve caught a banshee.”

This is the story that Yura acknowledged Shin Yuseong to some extent. Yura carefully recited with a very serious face.

“But… if Yooseong is you, you might find it.”

The only thing Yura, a level 6 hunter, wants is the safety of the citizens. So, at first, I fully believed in Shin Yoo-sung’s ability, which I thought was only a side kick, and asked.

“Can you?”

Of course, the person who asked the question knew that it was an unreasonable request. It was as if all beings had disappeared, and in the Delta Tower, there was no trace of the survivors, let alone the hunters’ mana.

However, Yuseong Shin recalled the advice Sumire had given him, even though it might be an unreasonable request.

[I heard there are two types of banshee. Scouts hiding in the shadows or walls of buildings. And hide the spirit of the captured human to offer it to the Banshee Queen…]

‘Capture.’

As a necromancer, Sumire combined Laplace’s knowledge, so she was more knowledgeable about the undead than Yura.

‘As expected, it’s Sumire. It’s good that you asked first.’

Thanks to this, Yuseong Shin was already certain where the Banshees had hidden the survivors.

“Yes you can. I can definitely find it.”
