-Human…human…It’s strong… Thud!

The huge orc fell down.

[The Chieftain of the Red Orc Tribe Caussus, has been defeated.]

[The Red Orcs will fall into ‘Chaos’ state for 10 minutes.]

[The Red Orcs’ attack will be increased by 50% due to their ’Chaos’ state.]

[The Red Orcs’ defence will be decreased by 50% due to their ‘Chaos’ state.]

When the orc fell a message window appeared, while looking at the window Soo Hyuk thought.

‘Good thing.’

.

.

When he left the Sun Tribe Orcs village, there was an hour and 30 minutes left. Soo Hyuk was unsure if he would be able to find an orc village, but he was lucky to find one in only an hour.

He had 30 minutes to attack the village. 30 minutes was enough to destroy the village, no the entire 30 minutes was not needed as Soo Hyuk killed the Boss and wiped out the village in less than 30 minutes.

Someone who could destroy the village at such speed was rare.

Soo Hyuk checked the drop item window.

-197 orc skins

-111 orc teeth

-21 orc eyeballs

-Cowboy’s Paddle

Unfortunately, only one item dropped.

‘It’s got a name.’

Soo Hyuk checked the named item’s information after opening his inventory. Nevertheless, the named item wouldn’t sell in Matab.

Soo Hyuk closed his inventory.

‘Wouldn’t it be better to log out in this place? I’ll be hunting here in the Bulam Mountains anyway, so there is no need to increase travel time back and forth to Matab.’

Soo Hyuk looked around the empty village and logged out.

Soo Hyuk took off his helmet, exited the capsule, and immediately checked his phone.

‘Oh, I’ve finally got the date.’

There was a message from his mother and father. It was about a family trip in Pangea.

‘It’s the perfect timing, 4 weeks from now.’

The trip was scheduled to be in 4 weeks and the Tower of Poison quest also ends in 4 weeks. The timing was just right.

Soo-hyuk replied and dropped his phone as he sat down at the computer. He checked what happened while he was connected.

As soon as the computer booted up, Soo Hyuk went to the official Pangea homepage and checked the posts in the popular forum.

“Huh …”

While reading the top posts, Soo Hyuk sighed.

“Only stories about rankers come up.”

He was sighing because all the top posts were about rankers or named users.

Soo Hyuk looked through the popular forums posts and the other forums posts.

The other forums posts were no different from popular forum posts. Most of the stories were related to the posts name.

Title: May I have a Pancam payment…

.

.

Pangea Cam, or Pancam for short, was a site that collected a variety of information. It was a paid site that bought and sold various information.

“Ah, I don’t have the quest information, but I don’t need it right now.”

Soo Hyuk had no need for information at the moment. He had several legacy quests, but didn’t need the information right away.

Soo Hyuk closed the homepage and checked the time.

“I only have an hour to read before I need to sleep.”

Soo Hyuk confirmed the time and headed to the bookshelf.

Doran cast the skill ‘Arrow of Death’. Arrow of Death had a 30 minute cooldown time.

When the skill was cast an arrow with black smoke flowing out of it materialised.

Doran then fired the arrow.

– Pch!

The arrow was aimed at the chest of an orc running at Doran. When the arrow hit the orc’s chest the black smoke soaked into its body. The orc’s skin began to turn black, spreading out from where the ‘Arrow of Death’ hit.

In less than 5 seconds the orc’s entire skin turned black, and in that moment it suddenly exploded out in an enormous radius killing all the nearby orcs caught up in the explosion.

Doran, who had killed a group of orcs in just one attack, murmured while looking at the drop message.

“Obviously you were hunting an orc. You said you were going to hunt orcs. Where are you?”

Doran had already been looking for the user for two hours, but there was no trace to be found.

“Where are you hunting? Did you log out?”

Doran nodded in thought.

“That could have happened.”

It made sense. It was nearing dusk and it was a time when many users logged out. It was also possible that the user had logged out.

“He said ‘for the time being’.”

The user said he would hunt orcs for the time being.

“I’ll see him around.”

‘If I keep hunting orcs, I will find you.’

‘I have to work on a title, because of this guy I didn’t hunt trolls.’

Doran also had to hunt the orcs. He hadn’t got all their titles yet.

Doran confirmed the dropped items and moved on.

-It’s in 4 weeks! That’s 27 days from now. Don’t forget!

“Yes, I know.”

-I’ll be in touch!

“Yes, good bye.”

Soo Hyuk dropped his phone after finishing his call with his father and focused on the book again.

[Ring ring ring!]

After 30 minutes of focusing on the book, the alarm Soo Hyuk set started to ring.

“Is it time already?”

Soo Hyuk closed the book, turned off the alarm, and got up.

He rose from his seat and stretched to relax his body before connecting to Pangea. Soo-Hyuk entered the capsule and connected to Pangea.

Soo Hyuk logged back into the Red Orc Tribe village.

‘Did monsters respawn while you were logged out?’
