I Became the Weakest Summoned of the Genius Summoner

212 – Filling the Ceiling

Since we had already faced about 800 monsters, we quickly realized that the number that was coming was a huge number.

Even if I roughly estimated it, the number was at least several thousand.

And there was a light red aura surrounding their bodies, and it was clear that it was a buff given by ‘Nargul’.

If you kill a monster that is surrounded by that buff, it will come back to life after a while and you will be able to experience the writhing nightmare.

Of course, you cannot be revived infinitely, and each time you are revived, all abilities are reduced by a certain percentage.

The immortal army that comes back to life no matter how many times you kill it would be a pleasure to face.

I informed Yeonhee of this fact and went straight to the door.

Yeonhee shared the facts I told her with her colleagues, and the faces of the hunters crumpled when they heard the information.

“Nargul…”

“What?! Are you sure?”

“How does the guy below know where he is? Or rather, how does he know that?”

“There must be a summon with the ability to guide.”

“Summoners are amazing…”

“It must be the effect of the dungeon being closed. I once heard from a high-ranking hunter that sometimes dozens of boss-level monsters appear in dungeons scheduled for closure.”

“Crazy… So you’re saying there are a lot of them here?”

“This guy wasn’t on this floor before… So it’s highly likely.”

“Wait a minute… So if we had headed straight for the exit… We could have really fucked up…?”

Everyone looked at me with curious eyes again, probably thinking the same thing.

The thought of all those people surviving and spreading stories about me on the Internet made me feel dizzy already.

I have to make them shut up before I complete the quest… Hmm… What should I do.

Crackling-

First, I had to open this door. I tried pushing it on my own, but it didn’t move at all. It wasn’t this heavy originally… But damn… Now even the smallest things are becoming difficult.

I pointed to the door to Yeom Tae-seok and pretended to push it with my hand. We tried pushing the door together, but it still wouldn’t budge.

A few other hunters who saw this pushed together with strength, and only then did it begin to open little by little.

“This is so damn heavy!”

“aah…! Here come the monsters! Quick, quick!”

“Don’t just make fun of me, help me out…”

“You’re going to be swallowed by a woman!”

“Oh, please! Let’s all push together!”

Now the monsters approaching from a distance began to see billowing blue smoke. We have to hurry. The door became much heavier than before, so time was delayed.

‘Fuck… What kind of difficulty is getting worse.’

Kuuuuung-!

I barely managed to open the door, and I ran inside first, holding Yeonhee.

“Ah! Take us with you too!”

Arin shouted in frustration, but think about it when I become a monster with many arms.

The party members followed suit, and the remaining hunters also began to hurriedly enter the cave. The reason they followed me without the slightest hesitation was probably thanks to the monsters that were just around the corner.

– Khyaa!!

The cave we entered after leaving behind the monsters’ screams was filled with pitch-black darkness.

As I was about to take out the magic torch to brighten my vision, a woman who was short but had incredibly large breasts stepped forward.

“Light!”

Among the 25 hunters in our party, there were two wizards, one of whom was one. A sphere of light soon emerged from her hand and began to slowly circle around us.

As the sphere illuminated the surroundings, a passage larger than expected revealed a hidden body. At the same time, a message that would scare people also came to mind.

– You have entered the hidden dungeon [Corrupted Knight’s Hideout].

“Huh… !”

“·······?!”

“Turn it off…!”

The hunters quickly their mouths at the unexpected message covered that arose in a cave where footsteps sounded like thunder.

His wide-open and bloodshot eyes stared at the back of my head, demanding an explanation. This is ridiculous.

‘No… Isn’t it too much to expect from monsters?’

I silently moved along the passage of the cave without looking behind me at all.

Everyone followed me, holding their breath.

It is taboo to make noise in a space like this. I guess that means everyone has the basics.

Bang! Bang bang! Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwaang—!

“Hi!”

However, when we had barely walked a few steps, we heard the sound of monsters randomly hitting the door of the passage we had passed.

The door was clearly open, but it seemed to close again after we entered. But there’s no need to beat it up like it is, right? Am I so brainless that I can’t even open the door?

For some reason, they couldn’t open the door for a while and just screamed, which was fortunate for us.

It was also something I was secretly looking forward to. Because it was a separate space from where we were, the system probably displayed a message that we had entered.

Maybe this place has nothing to do with the closure of Nargul’s dungeon?

– New challengers hope to participate in the Hidden Dungeon.

‘…Is there no next time?’

I would like to participate. What? Please explain a little more kindly.

“What are you talking about? New challengers?”

“Wait a minute… So you’re saying those bastards who followed us are also considered challengers?”

“There’s no such thing as bullshit. Monsters are challengers…”

“Then… Is the reason they can’t come in because we are currently challenging them?”

‘That makes sense.’

However, considering the nature of the dungeon, the challenge time will not be infinite. However, seeing that the remaining time is not displayed yet, I think I have secured at least 24 hours…

We walked for about 30 minutes and arrived at a huge, eye-popping cavity.

It was such an incredibly large place that my mouth fell open.

Huge pillars were erected in the middle of the cavity to prevent the space from collapsing. As I approached the pillars, I saw something written on them.

“This?! It’s a script from an ancient civilization!”

“… Then there is a high probability that there is an artifact here…”

“…”

The feeling of greed was creeping into the minds of people who had been trying to survive by running away just a moment ago.

It is a feeling that any hunter who enters an unknown space that no one has ever entered is bound to have. But.

‘Unfortunately, the artifact here requires us to get rid of him.’

There’s no need to relax if you’ve already explored-

“S-don’t push…”

“No, I was ahead first, so why…”

However, the hunters were already scattered in all directions carrying magical torches, mobilizing all their abilities to search the vast hollow.

In particular, the hunters gathered near the pillar even grew at each other with no sound. They probably think there’s something buried at the bottom of the pillar.

‘I said there wasn’t one…’

However, when everything changed, artifacts that were not there could be discovered.

So, I also tried to expand the wavelength of my senses as widely as possible.

But this time I couldn’t find anything different.

I approached the pillar and looked at the text I had encountered again after crossing one life.

‘… Even if I look at it again, I don’t know what it means.’

However, the patterns carved on the pillars were still delicate and luxurious.

That showed how high the level of those who created this space was.

This space filled with pure white material and the texture of the pillars were no different from smooth stones, but the concentration of magic power gently blooming on the surface was so sacred that it was easy to see that it was not a space made by polishing ordinary stones.＜ Br﹥

And although others didn’t realize it yet, my senses sensed little winged creatures clinging to the ceiling at heights we couldn’t even see.

The overall appearance was that of a bat, but the single face-sized eye on its triangular face and two pairs of wings neatly folded together as if in prayer were enough to indicate that it was a creature from another world.

In particular, the three long curved claws on the upper wings were specialized for scraping things.

Their main method of attack was to sweep past hunters with those hook-like claws and absorb their blood. But I don’t know how that applies to me.

In the dungeon of Nargul, where there were no living creatures, the only creatures were waking up from hibernation, and their bodies were only about the size of sparrows.

However, as it absorbs blood, its size increases and eventually becomes several times larger, and when combined with its wide spread wings, it creates quite an intimidating feeling.

They were still frozen like stones and showed no vital reaction, but soon they started to shake off their bodies one by one and shake off the stone debris that was stuck to their bodies.

Patter-

‘I don’t think they’ll attack right away…’

However, it was difficult to strike first against those at that height. Moreover, the space was too large for [Contaminated Breath] To be effective.

As I gently placed Yeonhee on a rock that was just the right size for her to sit on, the party members then got off the Lizardman’s shoulders and carefully took a deep breath and looked around.

“Huh, really. Young people these days don’t even know.”

Taeseok Yeom tilted his head as he looked at the hunters wandering around looking for artifacts that didn’t even have lights on.

‘I’m not even old enough to use the word ‘young.’

Yeom Tae-seok was not as old as I thought. When JooA asked vaguely, he said that he was in his mid-40s, and considering that he was a person whose physical aging progressed late, his presbyopia seemed mysterious.

“Anyway, I spent an hour…”

Bae Joo-ah spoke first.

“I think it was a success to get in. But what do you plan to do now?”

“Hmm… I have to clear this dungeon first… Right?”

Bae Joo-ah followed up with Yeon-hee’s answer.

“Can we survive here for a week? If the monsters that followed us open the door and come in, we might be attacked.”

“For sure… I need to clear it quickly before then.”

“I heard that the dungeon within the dungeon is very difficult. But it’s so empty that I feel uneasy.”

“Should I think of it as a C-level dungeon… It will be a good experience.”

Arin took out a cardigan from her inventory and put it on, trying to control her anxiety, while Noh Hayun raised the corners of his mouth with determination.

“Ilwol, is there a monster here? Can you confirm?”

When I raised my head and quietly looked at the ceiling in response to Yeonhee’s question, people’s eyes slowly moved upward.

······················································································. ·····························································································

“…What’s there?”

“Damn it… If it’s a monster that lives on the ceiling of a cave… “

“Slime? Cave Gill Spider? Freaky Bat?”

‘That bat doesn’t come out here… I just call it the hook bat.’

You must defeat those black hanging bats, pass through a maze that is tangled like an ant tunnel, and enter the space where the Skeleton Knight is sleeping.
