[This is a target from which shadow extraction is possible.]
At Suho’s words, a black shadow began to move from the corpse of the poisonous sand fox.
[Attempting to extract shadow.] [Attempting to extract… … .]
Kihhhhhhh!
In the shadows, a giant raccoon’s fangs were howling, ready to burst forth.
however.
Ting!
A notification popped up, accompanied by a metal-clinking sound.
[Shadow extraction failed.] [You have 2 more attempts.]
‘failure?’
Suho gritted his teeth.
‘Am I lacking?’
The Shadow Extraction skill had a chance of failure.
It was clearly stated in the skill window that the extraction failure rate increased in proportion to the target’s ability, and in reality, the Poison Tooth Sand Leopard was a demon far stronger than the Guardian.
‘Actually, I didn’t kill him alone.’
Suho had used every means and method he had to catch this one.
That’s why he was even more greedy.
‘There are two chances left… … .’
Suho took a deep breath and calmly attempted a second extraction.
“Get up.”
Ting!
[Shadow extraction failed.] [You have one more chance.]
“… … .”
Suho swallowed dry saliva.
Now one last time.
Kihhhhhhh!
Even at this moment, the sand squirrel was struggling to escape from the black smoke, its numerous legs flailing.
‘Do you want to come out too?’
Suho’s eyes became calm.
‘Okay, come on.’
And let us defeat the enemy by my side.
Suho solemnly extended his hand in front of the bastard’s huge corpse.
“Get up!”
At that moment.
Bam!
The sand raccoon roared and stepped out of the black smoke.
That was the beginning.
Crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch!
Crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch!
The numerous legs that followed lifted the body off the ground.
Black smoke began to tangle in streams, weaving together the unfinished body.
[Shadow extraction succeeded.]
“Okay!”
Suho burst into cheers.

Soon, a giant sand squirrel made of black steam appeared majestically in front of Suho.
[Kihyaaaaaaah!]
Tingle tingle!
[… … !]
At that murderous momentum, Essil, who had escaped from Volkan’s horn, flinched and took a step back.
Gray, who had just separated from Suho’s body, hid behind Eshil with his tail curled up and trembled.
Suho swallowed dry saliva as memories of his first battle came to mind.
‘But now it’s mine.’
Tiring!
[You can give names to soldiers of the knight rank or higher.] [The given name will remain until the shadow disappears.] [Please choose a name for the soldier.]
What does a name matter?
Anyway, this guy is just a day laborer.

“let’s go.”
Suho roughly decided on a name for the guy and climbed onto his back.
“Hey, wait a minute… …! Me too!”
“Gurrung!”
Eshil hurriedly carried Gray and jumped onto the shadow raccoon following Suho.
Suho smirks at that sight.
And then he turned his gaze and his eyes shone towards the depths of the labyrinth.
“Okay. Let’s go now.”

Meanwhile, Randolph continued to run through the labyrinth with a small group of his men.
“Hey, Randolph! Gasp!”
“The mummies are not following me… …!”
chuck.
Randolph stopped and looked back at the words of his exhausted subordinates.
“Tsk. Weak things.”
He clicked his tongue at his men who had fallen behind and fallen away.
“Well, they’re strong guys anyway, so they’ll catch up eventually. We keep moving!”
“Yes, yep!”
Fortunately, the speed has slowed down.
From now on, take each step carefully.
Randolph walked down the endless hallway, looking around.
“… … But why did the mummies disappear?”
“Maybe we’re almost at the end?”
“hmm.”
A faint smile appeared on Randolph’s lips.
Inscriptions found in the pyramids.
May the challenger’s future be bright.
“So now we are the only challengers.”
Then the relics are naturally ours!
“Search everything!”
“yep!”
“If you shake it off, something will come out!”
The Scavenger Guild was famous for having strong bodies.
This strength shines especially in rough terrain like this.
“Hold on to all the traps with your body! Just break and destroy everything, and find any clues!”
Kookwakwang! Kwakwak!
No one dared to block their path.
Walls crumbled, and any suspicious objects they saw were destroyed, and they slowly made their way towards the end of the labyrinth.
And finally.
“It’s the door!”
A giant door appeared before them.
“Found it!”
“Found it!”
Joy spread across their faces.
And the moment you open that door without hesitation.
“… … !”
They finally saw it.
“Oh, you’re crazy!”
Their eyes widened.
A huge circular space.
In the middle of it all was a giant crocodile man chained up.
‘He’ opened his eyes, opened the door, and looked at the intruders who had come in.
Creepy!
“… … !”
The moment I saw the vertically split reptilian eyes.
The Scavenger Guild members felt instinctive fear.
Just one person.
“under!”
Randolph was the only one with a cruel smile on his lips, his whole body exploding with energy.
“Found it! Boss mob!”
Kuwaaaaang!
He rushed towards the bastard, armed with every skill he had.
“Listen!”
At his shout, his subordinates flinched and looked at his sturdy back.
“Don’t be afraid and come together! Remember the prophecy! If we just kill that guy, we’ll get all the riches and honors!”
They recalled.
The fortune teller’s prophecy.
-Soon, life born from death will awaken from its seal. And its power will raise the dead.
The power to defy even death!
The seemingly absurd prophecy gave them confidence as they wandered through this labyrinth.
‘Those mummies! The power that raised the dead must be sleeping here!’
And that power would surely be theirs the moment they caught that crocodile monster.
As with all the dungeons we’ve been through so far!
“Let’s go!”
“If we all attack at once, we have a chance of winning!”
“I trust you, Randolph…!”
Phew!
At that moment, the heads of the hunters who were running bravely exploded.
“What, what, what, what… … !”
Phew!
What attacked them was none other than the thick tail of the crocodile man.
Although he was chained, he looked down arrogantly at the ridiculous humans who flocked to him like moths to a flame, with a momentum as great as a mountain.
“Krrrr… … .”
Pure white smoke flowed out of his mouth, and the corners of his lips split into a cruel smile.
In an instant, ten people’s heads were blown off.
The tanks of the Scavengers, renowned for their sturdiness!
“S, save me… … .”
The hunters who barely survived began to back away hesitantly with their faces turned pale.
Then, eventually, he turned around and started running away the way he came.
“Oh, no! I have to live… … !”
puck.
Another life lost.
At that moment, Randolph… … .
“Oh, that’s right! Mr. Randolph! If it’s Mr. Randolph… …!”
The surviving hunters turned their gaze to find Randolph in a hurry.
But he had already been knocked out by the first attack and was slammed into the wall.
“Ugh… … .”
Randolph gets back up, covered in blood.
But his eyes still burned hot.
“Oh, that’s funny. I finally found someone worth fighting.”
He charged at the bastard again, his magic power burning.
Phew!
“… … !”
What has passed?
I couldn’t see anything.
“Kwaaaaah!”
Blood gushed out like a fountain.
Randolph screamed, clutching his shoulder where one arm was missing.
“Hee, healer… … !”
Randolph’s face was already dark with defeat as he turned his head in a hurry to find the healer.
‘Can’t win.’
This was a fight that was not even worth fighting from the start.
‘Crazy strong… …!’
At this moment, the first thing that came to Randolph’s mind was the leader of the Scavenger Guild.
Thomas Andre, ‘Goliath’, the leader of the Scavenger’s Guild, who made people tremble just by making eye contact.
The fear that comes from facing someone of equal strength is transmitted from him.
“Ugh, retreat… … .”
When a trembling voice finally came out of his mouth.
A terrifying roar burst from the chained crocodile giant’s mouth.
“Ku …
“Crash!”
At that roar filled with magical power, the scavenger hunters began to run away with all their might back the way they came.
That was when.
Kkwaduk!
The chains that bound the crocodile giant’s body broke.
At that moment, hell began.
* * *
“Gasp! Gasp!”
Randolph ran and ran.
Have you ever run so wildly in your life?
As a result, he was able to save his life.
“Fuck! Fuck!”
The problem is that Randolph is the only one who survived.
Randolph, who had lost all of his men, was muttering the same thing over and over again, his expression stained with fear and anger.
“It’s a monster. It’s a monster, a monster!”
You can never win.
No, if the other person had been a reasonable person, he would have knelt down and begged for his life.
I couldn’t understand why such a powerful demon was trapped in a place like this.
I couldn’t understand how such a powerful demon could be bound in such a wretched chain and unable to move.
My head was a mess.
‘What the heck is this place!’
That was when.
Krrrr!
The walls of the labyrinth collapsed and a guardian appeared in front of Randolph.
“uh?”
Through the hole in the wall, Suho recognized Randolph and opened his eyes wide.
At that bright expression, all of Randolph’s pent-up anger exploded out at Suho.
Knock!
“You… … !”
A spark flew into Randolph’s eyes.
And at the same time, thoughts are rising.
‘Yeah, let’s catch that guy and use him as bait! When that little crocodile comes for me, then I’ll… …!’
Then you can live!
Randolph rushed towards Suho with a look of joy on his face.
No matter how injured he was, catching one of those summoners was no problem.
Because he was Randolph, an A-class tanker from the Scavenger Guild!
If it weren’t for that boss mob from earlier, there’s no way I’d be inferior in strength to anyone I fight!
Kwarrung!
A thunderous roar erupted from his body, and an explosive aura was concentrated into his fist.
It was a monstrous force that could crush a lowly summoner to death like an insect.
“It’s all your fault! If it weren’t for you, we would have been able to steadily advance… …!”
Krrrr!
“Strategy… …?”
That was when.
The wall finally crumbled, revealing the giant shadow that Suho was riding.
“……uh?”
For a moment, Randolph’s expression fell.
What the hell is going on?
[Kihhhhhhhhhhh!]
Sand fox with poison fangs.
There was a giant monster there that had taken the lives of countless hunters who had come to Kamaru’s pyramid.
‘This is ridiculous… … .’
How can you summon something like that?
As a Class A Hunter, Randolph was also very knowledgeable about summoning techniques.
It would never be possible to summon a boss-level beast like that using summoning magic.
If that had happened, the sorcerer might have been eaten by the summoner instead.
But now.
“oh my god…….”
A terrible demon from the red desert appeared before him.
Burning the guardian.
