The moment Suhyuk pressed the transparent button, his vision changed in a strange way
Several strange transparent buttons could be seen on either sides of Suhyuk’s vision
Suhyuk gazed at a tree that looked stronger than any object; next to it strange letters ritten
Dimensional force contaminated rubber tree
Suhyuk turned around, this ti device
2020 diment (impossible to repair)
“What the hell …”
It was hard for Suhyuk to s this strange chain of events The ht how uncomfortable his vision felt; all of a sudden an unfa in his ears
Di-ring, shut down the basic exploration functions?
Suhyuk instinctively nodded upon hearing the voice In response, the letters obstructing his vision disappeared
“huh…”
Everything was shocking Suhyuk wanted to figure out what the heck was happening Thehis ears once again
Di-Ring, would you like to review the transcendental system user tutorial?
Such a friendly voice… Suhyuk could do nothing but nod once again
The unidentified voice guided Suhyuk of the various functions he could use with great detail
But a si Suhyuk dumbfounded
To summarize the tutorial simply:
First, the features of the transcendence systehts’
Second, the transcendence system can assist the user in a many number of waysIn particular, more help can be obtained once the dimensional level is raised
Third, when the user’s security level is raised, the number of usable transcendental features increases
And fourth, the current transcendence systeh dimensional force is collected diy can be in turn used in various ways
Suhyuk could only fully understand these four principles
Suhyuk did not understand the rest, but he felt he could take his time to learn the rest
‘Did I by chance awaken? It can’t be… If I awakened, I should have a ’
When Knights awaken, they obtain special powers and tattoo like s related to their associated powers The cohts becoether In that sense, Suhyuk understood his body has not awakened seeing there were no tattoos on his body
‘Then what the hell is this transcendence syste?’
Whenever Suhyuk wondered about this, he heard in his ears ‘security level is low and cannot be answered’
Though he was curious, it was i out at this hts aside and followed the tutorial’s instructions and pressed the blue button located at the bottoht

The statusappeared in front of Suhyuk, he ski
‘Is it siame interface?’
Suhyuk was always surviving day by day and never played gaames tis
‘I haven’t awakened but why as?’ His body was in a much better state than before too
The transcendence system tutorial told Suhyuk he did not have to worry about dimensional radiation anymore
Rather, he needed to collect dimensional force to fully utilize all his new found powers
“Frankly, I don’t understand what is what but I’’ Suhyuk s
No matter how much Suhyuk lived without the fear of death, once he was face to face with death, his heart felt like cru
‘It said it can assist ht? But… how do I raise my level?’
Suddenly, Suhyuk broke free froht and realized he did not kno to raise his level
‘Ah, there are too s I don’t know’
Although there was a clear tutorial for using the transcendence systes he did not understand
‘I’ll gradually build o… first let’s escape from this place’
Suhyuk couldn’t continue standing herefor his lost trunk that flew off a o
Suhyuk found his trunk in a far forest area, but the items inside were mostly broken
The diation scanner, his last hope was shattered into many small pieces
However thankfully, he had the ability of the transcendental systes
Therefore, Suhyuk found it a piece of cake to escape the dungeon
The transcendental systeeon while he was escaping and noted there wasn’t a drop of dimensional force left within it
His neutralizer was destroyed before he could use it in this dungeon But anyith this level of cleaning, it would not be a problem to accept the paycheck
After escaping the dungeon, Suhyuk took out his only unbroken device- his syu
[Huh? You’re done already?]
“Yes, I had an early start and ended things as fast as possible After you confir, I expect a deposit”
[OK, after I confirm I’ll deposit the money within an hour]
“Roger Ah… do you know any people who are retiring fro business?”
[Huh? Why?]
“The dimensional force neutralizer broke I wanted to find a cheap replaceeon cleaners”
[Huh? What the heck? I guess it was pretty rough?]
“It was incredibly tough This order brought es”
[Hey now, you’reme feel bad Got it I’ll ask around and tip you off when I find soood]
“Okay, keep in touch”
After Suhyuk hung up his conversation with Yeongyu, he began wondering whether the dungeon cleaning business was the right job for himself
‘Could I have becoht? Iht Still, I feel I’ve obtained a unique skill but… do I have to continue cleaning dungeons?’
Truthfully, Suhyuk’s real dream was a monster hunter
He doesn’t even dare to drea Rank 4 titans Suhyuk hoped one day he could becoht who could defeat Rank 1~3 lesser monsters
If that wasn’t possible, he hoped he could be the helpers beside the knights to catch inter to the tedious choirs of the group
‘All I can do is dungeon cleaning for now… … I have no idea how to collect dieons while exposing myself to the dimensional radiation to hopefully collect some of it’
Until he could completely understand the dimensional force collection process; he needed to use the indirect eons to raise his di for the best
‘First, I should familiarize myself with the transcendental system’
He didn’t have the di was out of the question He decided the best thing he could do was try and understand this mystical system that called itself the transcendental system
The lower class dungeon cleaners were not allowed to live in the sa called ‘Colony registration certification’ to be allowed to live as a resident of a colony Only those who could pay taxes faithfully would be allowed a registration
Dungeon cleaners weren’t scraping by while living in poverty, but still dungeon cleaners were out right rejected froistration certifications
No ious nature of dimensional radiation froe their prejudice nature
For these reasons, Suhyuk built himself a house in an abandoned colony in the outskirts called Suwon Colony Of course electricity and water has been long disconnected
So, whenever Suhyuk needed electricity, he would build hienerator’ For water, he collected rain water in water tanks
He lived in a harsh environment, but he did not mind so much
In fact, there were s outside of the colony like Suhyuk The Korean Colony Alliance ( KCA) announced roughly a million people lived within Korea and about 5 million people lived outside of the colony
5 million is not an absolute low number
Outsiders wished to live within the colonies but were kicked or chased out and had no hope
Rarely, there were those who don’t want to live within colonies and defected to the outside
Those living within colonies are called ‘citizens’ while those living outside were called ‘ghosts’
Ghosts who live outside colonies lived in a lawless world, it was a dog eat dog world where you can only trust yourself with your life
So, Suhyuk had numerous traps installed around his house and was always ready for raids from the outlaws
It has been one week since Suhyuk lived in such a strong(?) house while studying the transcendental system
Fortunately, Suhyuk was not stupid and flawlessly understood how to use the transcendental system functions
‘Think of the coordinates here…’
Di-Ring, transcendental navigation coordinates co
The top-right corner of Suhyuk’s field of vision was guiding Suhyuk to the place Suhyuk just thought of
The transcendental system had most functions of his past equip most of his broken equipments But this was not the transcendental systeth
‘Install skill core precision shooting-D!’
Suhyuk recalled another function straight away Then the next function began
