Chapter 17

Orc Great Warrior with Summons Only?

It’s almost impossible right now.

“Haa.”

A sigh escaped on its own, but that didn’t mean I could give up.

First, I calmly and thoroughly examined the condition of my summons.

Then I was able to confirm that the Skeleton Summoning experience had reached 98 percent.

If I raise it by just 2 percent more, the level of the summoning skill will become 3.

In other words, I can summon up to three.

In addition, the Zombie was also at level 1, 95 percent.

It seemed likely to rise to level 2 around the same time.

Then the number of summonable entities becomes a total of five: three Skeletons and two Zombies.

With that much…

I felt like I could somehow hunt one Great Warrior.

Item replacement is also essential.

A sword and shield for the Skeleton to use.

Knuckles for the Zombie to use.

First, I decided to make three swords myself.

I headed straight to the blacksmith in the Arsen Kingdom.

Luke, who was dealing with a customer there, discovered Muhyuk and clicked his tongue.

“You said it would take a while.”

“Ah, well…”

Muhyuk just smiled, as if he was embarrassed.

“So, what do you need?”

“I’m going to make some weapons.”

“Make them?”

“I have to go back.”

Luke nodded.

“Use them well and come back.”

“Yes, thank you.”

After getting permission, I went into the workshop.

I took a seat in an empty spot.

“Skeleton Summon, Zombie Summon.”

I started working with the summons summoned to increase skill proficiency.

Placing the Iron ore.

Swish.

After gripping the hammer, I struck it down.

Clang!

A message popped up along with the metallic sound.

[Aligned the grain.]

[Progress (3.4 percent) increases.]

[Aligned the grain.]

[Progress (3.2 percent) increases.]

[Bonus progress (0.1 percent) increases.]

Twice in a row.

[Aligned the grain.]

[Progress (3.3 percent) increases.]

[Successive 3 times]

[Bonus progress (0.2 percent) increases.]

Three more times.

The progress increased at an incredible rate.

[Aligned the grain.]

[Progress (3.1 percent) increases.]

[Successive 4 times]

[Bonus progress (0.3 percent) increases.]

Tang! Tang, tang!

In less than 30 minutes, a sword was made.

[Sharp Iron Sword]

Attack Power 17

Durability 70/70

It was a very decent sword.

But it’s a shame.

Now is the time when I need even one more point of health.

Muhyuk made it again.

Clang!

One sword, two swords, three swords.

The swords piled up.

When I had been working for 3 hours straight.

[Tough Iron Sword]

Attack Power 18

Health +1

Durability 80/80

Usage Restriction: Strength 8

Finally, the option I wanted appeared.

The usage restriction was low and the attack power was decent.

Nice!

It felt like I was being rewarded for my hard work.

Muhyuk smiled and bought the sword.

As I said before, I could keep what I made as long as I paid for the materials.

Let’s make two more.

It doesn’t matter how long it takes.

I planned to prepare as much as possible before engaging in the hunt.

That’s the only way I’d be able to catch the Orc Great Warrior.

Three days passed.

A total of six swords with options were made.

Thanks to the health option attached to the last sword I made, I finally completed the three swords for the Skeleton to use.

I was thinking of selling the two with strength and one with agility using the auction system.

Before that…

I had to buy a shield and knuckles.

Muhyuk first put up the sword he had made.

24 hours, starting at 5 Gold.

After that, I looked at the items.

[Wooden Shield]

Defense 3

Shock Absorption 45%

Health +1

Usage Restriction: Health 10

[Instant Sale Price: 20 Gold]

It felt a little expensive.

I looked a little more.

[Square Shield]

Defense 3

Shock Absorption 43%

Health +1

Usage Restriction: Strength 10

[Instant Sale Price: 17 Gold]

This was better than the Wooden Shield.

The problem was the usage restriction.

Hmm…

The Skeleton couldn’t equip the Square Shield because it focused on health.

I looked after that, but they were all at a similar level to the Wooden Shield and at a similar price.

I had no choice.

Using the search, I bought two shields with health, just like the Wooden Shield, for 20 Gold each.

I had already used 60 Gold.

And I still had knuckles left.

Muhyuk stopped searching for a moment and checked the current bid price of the sword he had put up.

[Soft Iron Sword]

[Auction]

[Time Remaining: 21 hours 36 minutes 13 seconds]

[Starting Price: 5 Gold]

[Current Bid Price: 16 Gold]

[Eerie Iron Sword]

[Auction]

[Time Remaining: 21 hours 36 minutes 19 seconds]

[Starting Price: 5 Gold]

[Current Bid Price: 11 Gold]

[Light Iron Sword]

[Auction]

[Time Remaining: 21 hours 36 minutes 25 seconds]

[Starting Price: 5 Gold]

[Current Bid Price: 13 Gold]

They were all over 10 Gold.

Since these also have no usage restrictions…

I’ll probably get at least 50 Gold each.

Then about 150 Gold in total.

I laughed.

It’s so easy to make money.

But there wasn’t much time left to make money this easily.

This is because the probability of usage restrictions being attached greatly increases the moment the level of the Production skill becomes 4.

But it doesn’t matter.

This is because I have already achieved my goal.

When the level of the Production skill becomes 4, two options are attached to the sword, so it sells for a decent price in its own way.

Of course, strength has to be very high, but it was not impossible for Muhyuk.

If, by some miracle, no usage restrictions are attached, that item will sell for an enormous price.

That was the moment.

[‘Skeleton Summon’ rises to ‘3Lv’.]

The level of the skill rose.

Nice!

Finally level 3. I can now summon three Skeletons.

Checking the skill window.

[Skeleton Summon 3Lv (0%)]

Can summon 3 Skeletons. As the level of the skill increases, the number that can be summoned and the MP consumed per 10 seconds increases.

-MP consumed every 10 seconds: 2 Mana per entity

[Zombie Summon 1Lv (99%)]

Can summon 1 Zombie. As the level of the skill increases, the number that can be summoned and the MP consumed per 10 seconds increases.

-MP consumed every 10 seconds: 1 Mana per entity

Zombie Summon level 2 was not far off either.

Then a total of five.

That’s a very good thing.

The problem is the consumption of Mana.

2 every 10 seconds…

It increased by a whopping two times. If I summon five, 10 is consumed every 10 seconds.

60 is consumed per minute, and 600 in 10 minutes.

Of course, I have to take into account the recovery per second, but it was still not a low number.

Even though it was something I already knew, my stomach churned.

I shook my head.

I shouldn’t be like this already.

It’s going to be really hard later.

I scanned the items again.

This is good.

[Would you like to purchase ‘Sharp Knuckles’?]

[Yes/No]

I selected yes.

[‘25 Gold’ is deducted.]

[You acquire ‘Sharp Knuckles’.]

I bought two knuckles for the Zombie to use.

[‘Zombie Summon’ rises to ‘2Lv’.]

The level of Zombie Summon also rose.

I finished all the preparations.

Now all that’s left is to catch one Orc Great Warrior with summons only.

Thud.

I headed to the Orc Village.

In front of the Orc Village.

I summoned the Skeleton and Zombie.

Kireek, kireek!

Krrr.

I unequipped the items without options that the Skeleton and Zombie had been using and equipped them with the newly purchased sword, shield, and knuckles.

Since the attack power, defense, and health have all increased overall, the possibility was sufficient.

Shall we go?

After reverse summoning, I moved forward.

Orc and Orc Archer.

The Orc Shaman was regenerated.

Of course, Muhyuk ignored them. Then users would invariably approach, aggro the monster, and take it away.

After walking for about 20 minutes and arriving at a slightly deeper place, the atmosphere definitely changed.

It seemed like the level of the users had also increased.

Kuaaaaaa!

The roar that was heard at that moment.

My head turned.

I saw a green monster holding a greatsword and swinging it wildly.

Users were working together to fight such a guy.

“Keuk!”

“Hold on a little longer!”

When viewed from a distance, the difference was immediately apparent.

At least 3.5 meters tall.

It was to the point where the users looked like children.

In addition, the solid and huge muscles like wearing armor and the sound of the wind pressure of the greatsword being swung.

An overwhelming existence in every way.

Orc Great Warrior.

That guy was Muhyuk’s target.

Swish.

I turned my head.

After searching for an empty spot.

That place looks good.

I found a spot and stood there.

After waiting for a while.

Krrr…

Before long, the Orc Great Warrior was regenerated.

“Skeleton Summon, Zombie Summon.”

Five summons appeared.

Kireek!

From now on, I had to focus on the commands. This is because Muhyuk himself must not intervene in the battle.

I had to catch the Orc Great Warrior by only giving instructions.

If it were a normal Necromancer, they would never be able to catch him at Muhyuk’s current level.

But Muhyuk’s stats were so high that the summons received 20 percent of that, so there was a possibility.

That’s what I thought.

Puck.

Golgolil was reverse summoned after just three swings of the greatsword.

Crazy…!

I gave the command to evade.

One Zombie hugged the Orc Great Warrior’s thigh.

The remaining one bit and clung to the opposite ankle.

Golgoli and Golgolsam swung their swords and blocked the incoming greatsword with their shields.

Nevertheless, the Orc Great Warrior roared and moved endlessly.

Even if you block it with a shield, the impact builds up.

Eventually, Golgoli was also reverse summoned.

Followed by one Zombie.

Only two summons remained.

On the other hand, the Orc Great Warrior still looked fine.

There’s no chance of winning…

Only then did I realize.

The reason why they said to give up unconditionally if the Orc Great Warrior appeared in the Gangster Necromancer job change quest.

But…

The current Muhyuk is different.

I have been growing rapidly based on information.

I absolutely can’t give up.

I have to find a way.

Puck.

In the meantime, the remaining two summons disappeared.

Muhyuk frowned and fought the Orc Great Warrior.

I was barely able to deal with him after a considerable battle, but my expression was not good.

To catch a guy like that with summons only.

No, there must be a way.

After leaving the hunting ground for a while, I rested and fell into thought.

How?

Only then did Balshion (Old Man)’s words come to mind.

If it doesn’t work, make it work, and don’t be picky about the means or methods.

At the same time, information came to mind.

That’s right, those who grew up as Necromancers were desperate.

When they passed level 100.

The Necromancer’s fighting style was tearful.

Everyone who watched the videos of how hard they hunted cheered them on.

Some laughed, though.

Okay, let’s do it.

Everything I can.
