Became a Third-Rate Villain in the Hero Academy

I looked forward.

A hole in all directions. And there is an old book on the floor in the center.

Exactly what Travis said.

This is the second junction of this ghost-type dungeon.

‘Hmm, as expected here… it’s the same as the main work.’

The moment you pick up an old book placed on the floor in the middle, magic will be cast in a certain radius based on the book, followed by small zombies from all directions.

The strategy here is simple.

Like the first junction, one person carries the gun and picks up an old book in the center.

And all you have to do is deal with the small zombies that the other teammates are coming from all over the place.

I turned my back and told my teammates.

“I’ll listen to that suspicious book. You guys, just like in the previous three crossroads, wait outside. If a monster appears, take care of it.”

The team members replied that they would know, and each held their weapons in their hands.

Travis is a single spear, Monica is a one-handed blunt and shield, Phil is a three-sword, and Andrew is bare-handed like a frivolous wizard.

I’m reassured in my own way.

·······Then shall we go?

Bump, buck, buck-

I reached the very center of the hall on foot.

Then he bent down and picked up an old book.

As soon as I pick up the book, my vision blurs and then it gets dark.

‘······[Blind] magic.’

I fumbled with my hand, quickly pulled the [Status Relief Potion] out of my bag, opened the lid, and drank it.

Just like the first junction, it’s an extremely clean movement without frills.

In less than 10 seconds, I canceled the [Blind] magic.

And looked around.

Countless small zombies coming from afar with slow movements.

But… are there too many?

At least three times more than what we saw in this work.

‘For what? Turning White wouldn’t have manipulated this general dungeon in advance.’

Eventually, I found out the cause.

For a very simple reason.

Our team now has more people than in this work.

In this work, Nike differs for each route, but he entered this dungeon with a maximum of 3 people.

Now our team has 5 people.

A simple calculation should yield up to twice as many small zombies, but this game is not a very friendly game.

As the number of team members increases, the number of monsters appearing increases exponentially.

“Joe, it’s a zombie! They’re coming from all sides!”

“You, there are too many? What should I do?”

A march of zombies approaching with their organs shuffling.

Travis & Monica, who were in despair when they saw that, started screaming like a dog in need of a pee, and looked at me all at once.

I quickly rotated my brain.

To be honest, I don’t have much time to think about it.

The smartest way to get out of here is to drill a hole in one place.

In other words, it is one point breakthrough.

Zombies are slow anyway, so they can’t keep up with our running speed.

And near here is a separate room with a solid iron gate that doubles as a resting place.

Just run away from there and lock the door and you’re done.

Even in the dungeon exploration report, I picked up the old book in the middle, and if I just wrote that small zombies appeared, everything would be fine.

While I was sorting out my thoughts-

[Unexpected Quest: Subdue small zombies. (Objects subjugated by team members are also counted.)]

Reward: 5 store silver coins per object

Time limit: 1 hour

Suddenly, a quest window popped up.

A window that appeared during the practical evaluation of the ‘relic search’ before. The subjugation target was changed from a giant mutant underground spider to a miniature zombie.

It is not counted only if you catch it alone.

If you just subjugate, you don’t ask or question, 5 silver coins per individual.

100 shop silver coins are worth 1 shop gold coin.

I can’t just ignore this quest that smells like honey.

Even at an estimate, there are more than 100, so if you wipe out all those small zombies, you have at least 5 gold coins in the store.

I shouted.

“Break through the west! Ignore the zombies coming from the other direction. Wipe out all the zombies coming from the west!”

A strategy of piercing one side first, taking a seat, and defeating the slowly approaching bastards individually.

This is a strategy I have been using since it worked well in this work.

Holding back my laughter, I quickly slipped an old book into my bag and joined the team.

Perhaps it was to overcome the slowly approaching fear, all the team members shouted.

“Oh, I see! Let’s move right away!”

Contrary to them, with a fishy smile, I pulled out a long sword for dalian from my waist.

‘5 Shop Silver Coins per Animal!’

This is the party hall!

1 hour later.

[You have cleared the unexpected quest. You have obtained 2 Shop Gold Coins as a reward.]

[Total Reward: 6 Shop Gold Coins, 10 Shop Silver Coins]

I looked down at the corpses of countless small zombies lying in front of me with a refreshed face.

To be honest, it was easier than the reward.

Small zombies themselves are monsters with extremely low intelligence, and, to say the least—

“Whoa. I think I’ve used up all my magic for a month.”

Thanks to Andrew.

He took a long breath and wiped the sweat running down his face with a handkerchief.

Small zombies are low-level monsters.

Since some powerful monsters don’t have the same [hard skin] characteristics they have, they are extremely vulnerable to fire-attribute magic.

Andrew is a genius wizard with the blessed talent to use magic of all attributes, but he is particularly good at fire attribute magic.

So I focused on the care of Andrew, who became mentally unstable when he saw the small zombies approaching.

Andrew continued to direct the custom strategy from the side.

When he evaluated his practical match, the fireball, which condensed the mana he used on Noctar, burned a small zombie without losing power and even burned nearby zombies.

Frankly, Andrew wiped out 90% of it, and the 4 of us, including me, only dealt with the small zombies that stuck.

‘This is not touching your nose and blowing your nose.’

Finally ate it raw.

I can’t even remember how many times I’ve eaten raw like this…

With a happy smile, I took a drinking water from my bag and handed it to Andrew.

“········Oh, thank you, Theo.”

“You’ve worked hard, Andrew.”

I nodded slowly to Andrew.

‘Thank you so much, Andrew! It’s all thanks to you! Thanks to you, I sucked the honey once!’ I wanted to say, but I couldn’t be allowed to utter such vulgar expressions out of my mouth.

“You’ve worked really hard, Andrew! It’s all thanks to you! Thanks to you, I was able to get out of this emergency!”

“Really! As expected, he’s a genius wizard from the Braves Faculty! Oh, that’s right. Andrew, you don’t have a nickname yet? How about [Chunma]?

Did you even hear my lies?

said Travis and Monica, who were standing next to each other.

“As expected, against a large number of enemies like this, wizards are the best.”

Phil also helped.

“Ah, that’s enough, huh?”

The corners of Andrew’s lips twitched as his shoulders were raised.

‘It’s cute, it’s cute.’

While the other team members were having a friendly conversation, I started making up a new plan in my head.

Read at readwn.com

First of all, 6 shop gold coins and 10 shop silver coins obtained from this subjugation have been added, so it is possible to purchase the ‘Expert’ level characteristics soon.

I currently have a total of 16 shop gold coins and 40 shop silver coins.

‘Are you going to run away quickly even as an expert?’

After thinking about it for a while, I shook my head.

A sudden quest occurred before, and it is still the same.

With a fairly high probability, an unexpected quest will occur next time.

And besides the sudden quests, there are other quests such as hidden and sub-

‘great.’

I decided to keep collecting store goods.

After all, the romance of a man is a ‘master’ level characteristic.

If I enhance the ‘Expert’-class attribute with the [Amplification Sphere] I have, it will become a ‘Master’-level attribute.

But what if you enhance the ‘Master’ level characteristics?

In this work, [Amplification Sphere] was handed over to the Academy by Nike, so I couldn’t test it.

I don’t know what will happen.

But it feels good enough to walk.

And even with my current ability, if there are no abnormalities in this practical evaluation, I will be in first place.

When you face the limit of your abilities, it is wise to think about it then.

After organizing my thoughts, I said.

“Today’s dungeon exploration ends here. Everyone was exhausted, and we’re probably the most advanced right now. Let’s go outside and take a break.”

It seems good to be satisfied with this much today.

The dungeon exploration report is also being completed, and Andrew’s mana has also dropped.

There is a resting place in the dungeon, but there is no way to do it with a strong smell and gloomy energy.

I’d rather walk outside for a few hours and relax in a chilly but refreshing environment.

To be honest, I don’t even want to eat in a dungeon like this. The nerves keep getting sharper.

“Okay!”

Everyone on the team agreed with my suggestion to take a break.

While going out of the dungeon, our team found Aisha & Siena at the first junction.

Their faces were all white, and there were mourners waving their hands in the air.

[Confused] He must be enchanted.

Of course, there will be no countermeasures.

‘Ugh, it feels good.’

I looked back at my team and said,

“Wait a minute.”
