The people ere satisfied with the low ranked room decided to stay

Around 50 people

They were either people ere satisfied with the skill they obtained or thought, ‘if the low ranked room was like this, how ave up

However, those who had joined a group couldn’t give up now even if they wanted to

What group would have invested in a beginner for them to only learn a skill from the low ranked room?

Since they had already accepted so much, it was impossible to turn back now

As there was no group that would take a loss and accepted a useless person

They would obviously try to gain more than what they have invested

If they gave up… it would be hard to see anything good come out of it

Anyways, the only way the people who had already joined a group could relax hen they obtained the skill they needed from the Sky Library or died

<the steel=”” dolls=”” will=”” not=”” attack=”” when=”” you=”” are=”” alone=””>

<30 shadows,=”” 5=”” steel=”” dolls=””>

Those were the words that appeared as soon as they entered the mid-ranked room

‘The difficulty has gone up’

Muyoung nodded his head

There was no way that the difficulty would be the same as the low ranked room but steel dolls, was it?

The original number of spirits had more than doubled and another variable was added in

However, his eyes focused on the condition that was announced about the dolls

‘It won’t be easy’

Both the shadow spirits and the steel dolls were very difficult to deal with

Especially the steel dolls ere alinners with every stat less than 100 to defeat were a distinct monster only the Sky Library possessed

It was hard against one type However, two coether

Of course, due to the characteristics of the shadow spirits, they were easier to deal with as a group but since the steel dolls would indiscriet, they were in a dilemma

To ether

It wouldn’t be as easy to complete as the low ranked room

‘Despite everything, it’s fortunate that there aren’t too many of them’

There were only 5 steel dolls

It was essential to play tag

The most effective hts came on and then move alone

Everyone who could level-headedly look at the situation would have made the same conclusion

They ht not have made it yet but it was only a matter of time

“It seems a bit cold”

Suzy blew hot air into her hands

The lights would come on and off every 3 seconds

Large bookcases stretched across the walls on either side and countless books were placed on the shelves

Although, the layout wasn’t different from the low ranked room, the only difference was the temperature

Though there was no wind, the temperature of the room itself was low

‘Humidity’

Due to that, the humidity of the room rose

Even if the books were protected with preservation e

Being dry was a basic practice of storing books

Muyoung immediately approached the bookshelf and stretched his hand to check the conditions of the books

‘It looks like huic was cast as well’

Unlike their surroundings, the books and bookshelves had no traces of water

Was he wrong?

When he slowly examined the bookshelf, he found an especially dark colored book

‘It’s different’

The book et

He took it out and checked the book cover

There was only a single circular symbol drawn on the cover

“Keep it”

“Is it okay to take them out as we please?”

“It’s okay as long as you don’t learn it”

“Mister, I will be a great porter”

Suzy energetically received the book Muyoung handed her

Unlike in the low ranked roohtly

‘It looks like I have to check other places as well’

There probably wasn’t only a single book like this

It was a small clue, however, if he was to find them, he would be able to complete the puzzle

Muyoung didn’t become impatient and slowly moved away

What was the standard of being ‘alone’?

How far of a distance did he have to keep to be considered alone?

The steel dolls were big

A large build that stood 25 as Pinocchio’s, they were human-shaped monsters

However, unlike their appearance, they were very agile

If there was more than one person, they would most certainly appear and only disappear after one was left

If you stood still because you were stricken with fear, then you would become food for the shadow spirits

‘They aren’t retaliating’

Muyoung kept far away fro with the steel dolls

First, he believed that the standard for being ‘alone’ was about 200m

And if you attacked when you were alone, they would not retaliate

But their defense was very high Even Muyoung’s attacks weren’t able to easily dae them

Anguish was a swordcreatures It wasn’t able to penetrate the non-living steel doll’s outer layer

‘It’s not to the point of being impossible’

Muyoung was one as well as multiple

The Prince and the Avengers, the Blazing Spear Soldier and the Sorceress of Lightning

It was impossible by himself but if nificant reduction in losses

Tens of undead with overlapping buffs attacked one

The steel doll didn’t have the ability to endure

The only problereater than the losses?

‘There is no reason for me to set myself up for losses’

However, he shook his head

His decision was simple

He didn’t see a big enough advantage

It was instead a waste of time

‘I have to quickly get to the high ranked room’

He only had 3 days

Every time he went up a room, the difficulty would sharply rise

Half a day had already passed

On top of that… the first person to enter the high ranked rooet preferential treatment

‘A chance to obtain one more skill’

Although it wasn’t free, depending on one’s effort, they would be given a chance to obtain another skill

There was no reason to waste time here

Muyoung waited for the steel dolls to leave before approaching Suzy

“Mister! A shadow’s behind you!”

The , he lowered his position and locked Suzy into his armpit

A shadow spirit had quickly followed him as soon as the steel doll had left

There was only one way to eliminate a shadow spirit

Only after letting it possess someone could he reduce their numbers

Two shadow spirits were stubbornly following behind Muyoung

They ai’s feet from the opposite direction the steel doll left towards

He was soon able to discover a group
