The strongest skeleton soldiers Kim Woo-jin knew of were the ones summoned by the King of the Undead.
He was the second highest level player next to the Messiah, Lee Se-joon. He possessed a boundless dominating mana. His mana was accumulated through countless achievements and the support of his halo. Johann Georgâs skeleton soldiers were also strengthened by a countless number of powerful skills to form an overwhelming foundation. His creations were monsters among monsters that made even monsters in the dungeons tremble in fear.
Their combined combat power was so great that even Kim Woo-jin could not afford to ignore them.
However, their combat techniques were lacking.
Their moves were easy to predict.
If skeleton soldiers with strong combat power were supported by advanced combat techniques, Johann Georg would have dominated the world long ago.
Unlike Johann Georg, the skeleton soldiers that Kim Woo-jin summoned didnât have awful combat techniques.
The skill rank is F, the summonerâs level is 3, and the size of his mana pool is almost negligible.
It was a combat power that could not be described as strong.
However, Kim Woo-jinâs skeleton soldier covered for its lack of combat power with good combat techniques when dealing with the goblin.
It was after the skeleton soldier killed its third goblin.
Kim Woo-jin noticed that his skeleton soldier was fighting like him.
In short, the combat skills of skeleton soldiers imitated their summoner.
In a way, the way it worked was obvious.
Although the world has changed to be like a game, there was no artificial intelligence controlling the summons like an actual game. Moreover, wasnât it the summonerâs mana that allowed that brainless skeleton soldier to move?
âItâs not unexpected at all.â
It is no wonder that the combat techniques of skeleton soldiers also come from their summoner.
âI didnât think that this would be the result though.â
In Kim Woo-jinâs mind, it was unthinkable, let alone expected.
At the same time, it was a very important surprise.
There were no skeleton soldiers in any of Kim Woo-jinâs plans.
âThis is going to change how I proceed.â
Of course the plan had to be changed.
âI can get rid of my obstacles a lot faster.â
Kim Woo-jinâs plan shifted to a direction that would be more devastating for those who became his prey.
There were complaints that Kim Woo-jin heard a lot back when he was a part of the Messiah Guild. âWoo-jin oppa, please get in sync.â
âSeriously, please be considerate of the person behind you.â
âHey, Kim Woo-jin! Weâre canât do things the way you do it!â
âBe considerate of the people fighting with you.â
That was just how Kim Woo-jin was.
If everyone else was driving down the road in a normal car, it was like he was driving an F1 race car.
There was only one person in the Messiah Guild who could follow Kim Woo-jinâs pace.
The Messiah Lee Se-joon, he was the only one who was able to keep pace with Kim Woo-jin.
No, to be more accurate, Kim Woo-jin was the one that kept pace with Lee Se-joon.
Lee Se-joon was always the one who walked in front of Kim Woo-jin and led him.
Therefore, he learned how to fight more efficiently, hunt faster, and optimized his hunting strategy.
Naturally, he did not listen to his teamâs complaints.
He thought it was strange for them to complain when he was trying his hardest to save the world from this damn game.
He thought that Lee Se-joon, the hero who will save the world, would agree with him.
âI understand what they were saying to me now.â
However, Kim inevitably had to reflect on himself after trying to assist a skeleton soldier that fought like him.
âIt has no consideration for its ally.â
The skeleton soldier that Kim Woo-jin summoned never backed out despite its small size and fleshless bones.
When they found a group of goblins, it rushed in without hesitation. Instead, they avoided attacks and fought a fierce melee amidst its enemies.
âThis is just a messâŚâ
It resulted in an utter mess.
That was Kim Woo-jinâs style.
Head-on engagements were a disadvantageous to him due to always being againsts a large number of enemies.
He would initiate a brawl, killing them one by one until all his enemies were finished.
In other words, it meant that those who fought along with him were also forced into a brawl.
âNo, Iâd say itâs utter chaos.â
This kind of chaotic fight was dangerous for those who lacked individual combat skills.
Kim Woo-jinâs skeleton soldier verified this truth with the result on its body.
Although it knew how to fight like Kim Woo-jin, there was a limit to the capability of the goblin skeleton. The chaotic fighting ultimately had a dire toll on the goblin skeletonâs body.
The attacks of the goblins chipped away at the body of the skeleton.
The skeleton paid the price for wanting to fight a brawl without the necessary ability.
The sound of a whip cracked over a goblinâs back.
It formed a wound deep enough to see the spine.
However, the pain was even worse than the wound.
The goblin, slashed by the whip, fainted with its eyes rolled without even letting out a proper scream.
In the meantime, Kim Woo-jinâs whip tore the neck of another goblin.
Again, a goblin fell where it stood. It died in excruciating pain, briefly screaming before dying.
Upon confirming the sudden death of its colleagues, the goblinâs eyes immediately fixed towards Kim, and then froze.
At that moment, a sword held by the goblin skeleton penetrated into the side of the goblin.
That concluded the battle.
At the same time, a notification sounded to announce his level-up
After the sound, Kim looked around. He was on guard before raising his stats.
Then he saw the goblin skeleton staring at him.
It had fiery, burning eyes as if it belonged to a hunting dog that was still hungry.
Those eyes even installed fear in its owner.
Lee Se-joon, I can vaguely understand how you felt when you looked at me.
Kim Woo-jin felt deep satisfaction from what he felt.
âYou fucked me over because you were afraid that I would be a hunting dog that turned on you and shred you apart.â
No, he wasnât just satisfied.
Kim Woo-jinâs eyes also began to look similar to his goblin skeleton.
âIâll gladly become that hunting dog.â
His eyes expressed violence like that of a hound.
For the players, their nicknames were, in a way, an indication of their value.
In that sense, the nickname âhunting dogâ was inappropriate.
Was it possible to describe Kim Woo-jinâs value that defeated even the so-called âkingâ players with the words âhunting dogâ?
Nevertheless, Kim Woo-jin had many reasons to be nicknamed the âhunting dog.â
One of them was the lack of time.
Players with nicknames that gave off admiration proved their value over a long period of time to earn their nickname.
Johann Georg, the King of the Undead, was not a king from the beginning.
Brain Janna, the King of Deadly Poisons, were not called that from the beginning either.
Their nicknames were developed steadily and firmly over course of many years.
Kim Woo-jin, on the other hand, became strong faster than anyone else.
They simply didnât have enough time to give him a new nickname.
Kim Woo-jinâs hunting ability was that fast.
Even though he became a player much later than Lee Se-joon, he caught up to Lee Se-joon before anyone else.
Eventually, Lee Se-joon felt threatened enough to stab Kim Woo-jinâs heart with a sword.
When Kim Woo-jin began hunting in earnest, naturally, his pace was unparalleled.
Kim Woo-jinâs halo showed him greater favoritism than anyone else, even the Emissary of the Underworld admired his abilities.
By his achievements, Kim Woo-jin won favor from his halo.
Originally, it was only possible to increase the rank of his Skeleton Soldier skill by killing monsters with this skill until he reached at least level 20. However, the increase in rank was possible right away due to the haloâs gift.
âI am better than Johann Georg, I guess?â
The fact that Kim Woo-jinâs proficiency with his Skeleton Soldier skill was better than Johann Georg was the evidence.
Yet Kim Woo-jin was not pleased by this level of accomplishment.
There was no reason to be particularly pleased.
âI have to at least maintain this pace to beat Johann Georg.â
His opponent was still running at a pace similar to him but at a distance too far ahead to compare.
In order to catch up to his enemies, Kim Woo-jin had to do much more.
He had to deal with all the players who didnât intend to end this game and he had to also finish this game.
There was no reason to make a fuss over such a small gift.
Kim Woo-jin quickly settled the situation.
After opening his status window, he invested all the points he gained from his level-ups into constitution.
Immediately after, Kim Woo-jin opened his skill window to see the transformation of his ranked-up Skeleton Soldier skill.
Now, the number of skeleton soldiers he could summon was two.
It was already enough for them to be able to grasp his combat skills. Kim Woo-jin immediately prepared for his next hunt.
If possible, he intended to hunt until he exterminated all the goblins in the dungeon.
Kim Woo-jinâs piercing eyes surely suggested so.
A sharp sound reverberated in the sky, rocking everyoneâs eardrums.
It wasnât a sound that could be produced from the body of an animal. Â It also wasnât the sound of a monster either.
It was a signal used by players when requesting a rescue.

With that, a party got in contact with him.
As soon as he heard the sound, Kim Woo-jinâs expression changed.
It was a look of intrigue.
