chapter 27
Eternal Snowfield (2)
Snowfield of Eternity is literally a dungeon where you defeat a monster lying on a land of endless snow and ice.
This dungeon is located in Gangwon-do and is nicknamed the second Gangwon Land.
Or it was said that Kangwon Land was the second eternal snowfield.
If you succeed, you can earn quite a bit of money at the D level, but the problem is that the difficulty level is insane.
It is also tiring to chase and hunt monsters running away from the endless snowy field where traces are endlessly erased.
It is even more difficult because it has a unique magical power that gives people extreme cold.
However, the biggest problem that has raised the notoriety of this dungeon is that the snowball monsters that spawn in the snowy field do not give any magic crystals no matter how much they catch.
The loot from killing goblins and snowball monsters belongs to the owner of the snowfield, and you won’t get any loot until you kill the owner of the snowfield.
If it seems impossible to subdue in other dungeons, you can retreat after capturing the loot you have obtained so far.
If the field mob reward is better than the boss loot, there are places where it is more standard to run away with only the field loot without subjugating the boss.
Or, worst-case scenario, you can loot even a little bit by pulling the boss where the officials roam.
However, in this dungeon with a tracking concept, even officials do not know the location of the boss.
The boss thoroughly avoids officials and hunters.
Nevertheless, there is only one reason why hunters who have no back in life come to this place.
The owner of the snowfield will give you three times the loot that the scoundrels should give up until this point when you catch them.
In addition, you can take out the loot left by everyone who has tried and failed so far.
It is a good place for people who are looking for a single chance to come back because it is difficult to properly equip even consumables to enter the dungeon.
This dungeon is literally all-or-nothing.
Hunters who do not hesitate to do bad things for money tried to avoid this place as much as possible.
People who really need a power supply, for example, someone who messes up their work while planning a dungeon and needs a power supply.
It was a person whose business was rushed right before he became a parasite in the basement of a wealthy family.
Or maybe it was a part-time job of budaejjigae, who later realized that her life was ruined by buying a luxury car by pulling a lot of money from the financial world because of her childhood.
Only such people find this dungeon.
Anyway, a lot of MC life came to this dungeon.
To them, this dungeon was more like a one-chance diving roulette where they risked their lives.
They said that the only inn in the town they were staying at would allow them to enter the room only after thoroughly searching for a means to commit suicide.
To help these people, there was a hunter who wore fluffy clothes and found a way like a Sherpa.
However, since they receive more than half of the loot, there is no way hunters in need of money can use it.
The less people have, the less the value of the things they can easily use.
For them, life was the only asset they could manage, and there is no way they could spend more money to protect such a thing.
The reason I came to this place wasn’t just because I didn’t have enough money.
My current battle position is a ranged damage dealer.
However, in today’s society, it is difficult to survive by doing just one thing well.
I may be able to increase my value by training in tracking down enemies and reading traces.
Even to strengthen the eagle’s eye, I must enter this place.
Most of all, while sourcing the ingredients Betty said.
I raised my cadets as usual.
“I’m going to go to the secret word teacher!!”
When they shout to attract aggro, people flock to see the shiny cadets.
In a way, it might be normal.
To be a Fallen Hope cadet means to be basic, and this is a place where hunters who have fallen all the way to the abyss gather.
“Come with me!! I owe 50 million credits. If you don’t do this, you will really die.”
“No, what does that have to do with it? go with me student. He said it would help me recover.”
“brother!! If you take me, I will stay with you for the night!”
As they flock, I say what I have to say.
Because Anistine’s words are so obvious.
Her forehead is puffy and wrinkled, and a zergling sticks out.
“know. I know.”
I put my index finger in front of Anistine’s mouth before Anistine looked at them and said they smelled like a railroad worker.
[The last place only smelled, but the people here seem to have death on their faces.]
“For those who have lost hope, there is only despair left. Despair lies low in the light of death.”
Ye-yun trembled at the sight.
Perhaps it was because of the thought that she might fall in the same moment with him.
Hunters fall, but Guardians fall less painfully.
Because there is such a thing as a pension.
“Don’t worry too much. I came here to avoid that.”
Ye-yoon, who looks anxious, asks me.
“How can you say everything like that?”
“I know people well. People’s contemplations don’t lie.”
“I don’t know what you mean.”
I lift the brim of the hat so she can see my face.
“If you want to be insecure, you can trust me.”
“How dare you say something like that?”
“It’s confidence. I believe that I can overcome any situation well, so I speak firmly.”
Among the many lower lives, I see people who look pretty desperate.
An elderly grandmother was holding a small child.
In front of him, two youngsters, who looked like they were in their late teens, who could not even step into society properly, came to grab my collar with desperate faces.
Perhaps even in this world, young children holding each other’s ankles by wrong contraception seem to be everywhere.
“older brother. please take us I ran out of food for the kids. We need something to give to Grandma, but if we don’t go here, we’ll starve to death.”

Just looking at them, it wouldn’t be strange if they were found dead somewhere in the dungeon.
I can’t believe I can’t let the youngsters who have long queues to die already die.
“Rank.”
“It’s a D-class tank and an F-class healer.”
I look at them and lightly beat my chest.
Their growth potential is at a level slightly higher than that of both males and females in the B-class.
If you keep it alive, you might be able to save at least one person someday.
However, the shadows cast in front of them are too large to see their future.
Elderly grandparents and Yoo Ra to the sprouts that cannot grow because of being crushed by reality right away.
I didn’t have any luggage.
“I can’t even protect myself, so why should I use you? Are you sorry?”
“I’m not going to hold you back. I can do anything as desperate as I want it to be.”
“Anything?”
“I will do anything.”
I reject the courtships around me and call them alleyways.
I pull six thousand credits out of my wallet at the grandmother who follows them anxiously.
“Grandma. I hate hearing children whine the most in the world. Take this with you, feed your baby’s formula, and your grandmother will eat a bowl of soup or a bowl of soup. It will take a long time, so why not go into the inn and wait?”
After they let go, all that’s left are two young children who hold each other up.
The body of the young couple smelled of old poverty.
It shows that I have had a hard time watching other people’s eyes.
The feeling of living in the shade instead of the bright sun.
They were shady like ferns, but oriented towards sunshine like sunflowers.
I beckoned to the man.
“Answer me. Why didn’t you run away?”
“I have to take responsibility. And I love you, how do you run away?”
At least it’s better than the irresponsible bastards who go crazy in relationships and run away.
Anistine patted her shoulder with a dissatisfied expression and said.
I turn back and talk to her quietly.
[You don’t have to say it so hard, right? They are only children.]
“If they try to find people like me again because of my one mercy, then it’s over. Until they can stand on their own, we have to let them know that there’s no such thing as a tall old man. I’m just saying they’re the luckiest thing they’ve ever met.”
I turn to them and say bluntly.
“I will track down, and the cadet Im next to me will assist. You stand by our side no matter what we do. To be honest, the boss remains even after the two of us catch it. It just serves to get rid of annoying things. If you don’t do your part properly, I know how to kick you out. And don’t even think about hitting the back of the head.”
Yeyun flinches at my changed image, but soon understands my intentions.
Before entering the dungeon, put on a winter coat to cover your body.
It is better to wear even primitive clothes in order to preserve stamina in the endlessly stretched out and snowy field.
As I came to the dungeon, I looked at their outfits, which were roughly lined with cotton on old rugs.
“I’m going crazy and jumping. With that kind of clothes, you will freeze in about 10 minutes.”
It hurts, but I invest some of my money.
“If you clear the dungeon, pay it back.”
“thank you.”
After dressing them roughly to fit their body type, they look like two penguins.
After filling even a guardian made from the remains of a campfire marshmallow, the thought that they will freeze to death diminishes.
Thousands of people lined up on the way into the dungeon.
People who help their lives and drink on the street, people begging for money.
This place is literally like a destination for fallen humans.
I offer a cigar as a sacrifice in front of the gate.
Breathe in the smoke with Anistine to calm your mind.
The basic strategy has already been devised. There are data accumulated by the corpses of countless downstream lives, and the data are difficult to follow, but they suggest a clear path.
[I’m ready. cowboy?]
“always.”
When I throw my cigars, the homeless fight for the half of the cigar.
I think I saw this scene on Snowpiercer.
Are they all low-ranking hunters who can’t even prepare to enter the dungeon?
What would happen if I threw a lit candle on it?
Interesting spectacle, but you won’t have time to see it.
Not everyone will become a hunter just by awakening.
People with great wealth and fame can’t do anything like a low-ranking hunter whose life is threatened.
They must all become hunters after the open world.
Society is not paradise.
Behind any society these problems are piled up.
When you cross the gate, it’s a cold place to the bone.
All you can see is the constant darkness and snow, and the eyes beyond.
Even through the eyes of the hawk, the owner of the snowfield was not visible. It is now a battle of time and will.
The owner of the snowy field is the giant Yeti.
According to the setting, the Yeti must eat almost 0.5 tons of food per day, so they drive reindeer in the snowy mountains.
Three hundred are driven around to maintain the population.
As the saying goes, a sheep resembles a shepherd and a shepherd resembles a sheep, the reindeer led by the owner of the snowfield is ferocious, and the owner of the snowfield is furry.
Yeyun looked at the space that would be filled with eyes to the horizon beyond the horizon with a blank expression.
“You go around these places to find and kill the boss?”
“That’s what Guardians are supposed to do.”
And in that screaming snowstorm, something is running towards us.
“Get ready. The battle will begin soon.”
