Newbie Life of a Former Ranker

Everyone watching Dojin held their breath.

Not only the users in the safe zone, but also Kryuger who was watching through the crystal ball outside.

Because he knows what’s going to happen the moment his foot leaves his comfort zone.

‘Are you the newcomer here?’

‘Even if it’s the first time. Can’t you see that people are gathered here?’

‘A guy like that should never be included in a party even if he comes back and messes around.’

‘If there’s one guy who doesn’t reconsider and installs like that, I’ll be in danger for no reason.’

Those who had already gone through the forest of trials clicked their tongues and shook their heads.

There were not a few people who expected an obvious ending and turned their heads to do their job.

The moment they leave the safe zone, they are initially taken aback by the slow-moving slimes rushing at them all at once, and then struggle to realize that they are soft and hard to hit properly, and the game will be over.

Most of those who have experienced the forest of trials thought of Dojin as they rushed forward.

However, their expectations were spectacularly wrong.

Dig.

It was right that the slimes jumped all at once toward Do-jin, who came closer.

However, the next scene was different.

pug.

Do-jin broke the core inside the slime with a single attack.

Puong, the slime exploded in the air and pieces of sticky jelly scattered, and the sight was enough to astonish everyone who was watching Dojin.

‘S, slime in one shot?’

It is true that breaking the core can instantly kill the slime.

It’s a problem because the difficulty level is damn right.

It’s comparable to breaking a walnut in the middle of a bag full of buffers with one blow.

Since it was smashed in one blow, the viewer is bound to be surprised.

‘Oh, is that a coincidence? I just swung it like a madman, but it just hit me-‘

Surprised too much, onlookers tried to dismiss the scene they witnessed as mere ‘luck’.

puck! puck! puck!

That is, until he sees Do-jin, who sends the rushing slime one after another to the nether road.

It’s not flashy, but it’s a movement without superfluity.

He wielded only what was necessary, and the attack was accurate and aimed only at the core of the slime without waste.

The harmony of leaping slime and blunt weapon that meets in perfect trajectory.

‘Is this the slime I was dealing with… … ? The other day, our party was besieged by other monsters due to the delay in processing the slime and was wiped out… … .’

‘Aren’t you a pro gamer in another game?’

‘Are you a baseball player or a service gangster? … ?’

The ridicule and ridicule are gone.

Instead, heading to Do-jin was filled with admiration, doubt and astonishment.

Others compared Do-jin with themselves and felt a sense of shame.

“that… Are you a goblin?”

“Why is there a goblin at the entrance? Only slime will come out this way.”

By the time the number of slimes decreased significantly, people were agitated and agitated.

It was because a few goblins, which were usually hard to see from the entrance, appeared through the bushes.

It’s a slime. Aside from being strong, it’s not a monster with excellent attack power.

But goblins are armed with stone knives, stone axes, and sometimes rusty blades.

For beginner users who have not yet equipped themselves with armor, it means that each of their attacks is directly related to meaningful injuries.

No matter how familiar he seems to be in combat, he is still a beginner.

It’s not like they’re different in ability, so this time must be the end.

Among those who thought so, a man told a friend he started playing with.

“Hey, let’s help that person.”

“What are you doing? He didn’t even care if he wasn’t a woman all his life.”

“Anyway, this is why stupid bastards can’t do it. If you party with that person, it won’t be easy to pass through the Forest of Trials. That person is unconditionally a deceased person in the Forest of Trials. It’s never the first time I try. Or at least the one who used to blow it in other games.”

“Aha.”

“Did you admire your brother’s sharp reasoning and life-saving skills?”

“No, I admired your ability to smell like a ghost that you can catch and eat.”

The two, who have been friends for a long time, naturally shared tikitaka, grabbed their weapons, and ran toward Dojin.

It was to attract a good user to the party before the other guys hit the player.

It wasn’t just a party here, but if you’re lucky, it’s an opportunity to make pretty good connections.

“Step back for a minute-”

“We will help, so first-”

However, the two of them swallowed their words side by side.

The feet that had been teasing hard also stopped suddenly.

It was because he saw that the goblins who attacked Dojin were slaughtered like slimes, no worse than slimes.

“Suck!”

Do-jin’s blunt weapon, which he swung horizontally with a short breath, hit the side of the head of a goblin who was shorter than a human.

The timing of the goblin’s charge and the perfectly matched strike technique cause the goblin to fall to the side like a puppet with a thread cut off.

Do-jin didn’t stop there and hit the head of the fallen goblin mercilessly.

The eerie sound of cloth and bones breaking spread far and wide.

“Kyaagh!”

Rеаd at ոоbӏеmtӏ.соm

Motivated by the sight of their own people being crushed to death in front of their eyes, the goblins rushed towards Dojin.

However, it did not feel like a threat to Dojin.

‘It’s a lot easier than I thought, isn’t it?’

Rеаd at ոоbӏеmtӏ.соm

Maybe it’s because he lived as a glass body in his previous life, so he got used to battles where he would die if he brushed against him.

To Do-jin, the goblins’ movements seemed too monotonous and slow.

swish When the goblin’s stone ax splits the air.

I’m sorry. A blunt weapon rises from the direction the body leaned to attack.

The jawbone shattered and the goblin’s teeth pierced the air.

If you fall to the floor like that, the ruthless finishing attack is the face and gets stuck in the back of the head.

By the time the number of brutally killed goblins reached four, the frenzied goblins began to hesitate.

Without missing such a gap, Dojin boldly rushed towards the goblin formation.

The goblins scattered in a panic trying to avoid the mace that would attack them in an instant.

However, because they got tangled up and couldn’t dodge properly, one of them was hit by a mace.

The goblin that had been hit in the skull staggered, then fell backwards and sprawled.

It is afflicted with a stun condition.

Snap- Snap- Snap-

A bloody sound echoed from the goblin’s face.

Even after he was completely dead, Do-jin hit the goblin’s face again and again.

It was a show of force to make full use of the goblin monster’s characteristic of ‘being intimidated by opponents who look much stronger than itself’.

The more intimidated goblins waved their weapons and waited for an opportunity to escape.

However, Do-jin did not even give them a chance to escape and thoroughly slaughtered them.

In the meantime, a few slimes appeared out of nowhere and attacked Dojin’s back.

“Um… … !”

Do-jin let out a short moan, grabbed the slime that rushed in, pressed it down, and crushed it with a mace.

‘As expected, it doesn’t hurt that much because I’m all-in on my stamina.’

The reason for this was simple.

This is because, unlike other users who invest in muscle strength to increase their insufficient attack power, Dojin invested all of the 10 bonus points he gained in physical strength.

Of course, this was a possible attempt because Do-jin had the skills to lay down all sorts of additional damage corrections by aiming for perfect posture, center of gravity distribution, and counter judgment.

It was such a thing that there was a high possibility of becoming a strong punching bag if an ordinary beginner equipped with a whistle as an unofficial passive followed it.

‘I wondered if it would be difficult to avoid it, but it’s not like that. With this much, I can invest in my physical strength.’

dojin

Level: 3

Strength: 6

Agility: 6

Stamina: 16

Intelligence: 5

Dojin, who checked the status window, smiled with satisfaction.

I can already see that strength, agility, and stamina have increased by 1 each from scarecrow beating, slime, and goblin slaughter.

In the past, you had to suffer for a long time to raise one level, and you had to invest a huge amount of money, time, and money to raise one more stat.

On the other hand, now that I’ve returned to my low-level days, the level and stats changed so suddenly that I felt like playing the game.

It feels like the heart fluttering innocence revived just by playing the game, which I had forgotten while hanging my neck on the rankings.

And above all, the gaze of people who look at themselves.

Do-jin really liked that gaze that seemed to be looking at a monster.

‘Come to think of it, I’m quite a geek too.’

It’s a fact I’ve known for a long time, but I realize it again.

Well, I don’t know if I hung up on the rankings.

‘Not all interest was good, but… … .’

The thoughts that followed one after another reached dark memories.

Damn, I don’t have to do that anymore. Do-jin, who clicked his tongue and chanted, brushed off the blood and flesh on his mace and moved toward the depths of the forest of trials.

It is a life that can be lived again from the beginning.

I decided to shine brightly without a gap in darkness.

There is no need to be stained with memories of past lives that were regrettable and unfortunate.

This time happily and cheerfully.

happy again

Do-jin moved his steps in search of a stimulus that would give him happiness.

Needless to say, the stimulus was combat, killing, and the growth that came with it.

* * *

It wasn’t too difficult to pass through the Forest of Trials.

The battle was finished quickly, so there was no time for monsters to gather in groups, and growth was fast as well.

The consumption of potions was also low, so by the time he used 2 of the 5 healing potions he received for quests, he was already level 6.

Unlike other people, I didn’t play in a party, so it was great that I was able to monopolize the experience.

In the end, it wasn’t long before even the most dangerous monster in the Forest of Trials, the Orc, was no match for Dojin.

“Quiik-”

Several times, he waited for the orc to die, leaving behind a deathbed like chasing a pig.

In the end, Do-jin passed through the forest of trials alone and found a place with a portal.

[Complete Achievement ＜It’s Okay to Be Alone＞]

[Achievement Reward: +1 to all stats]

[Complete achievement ＜Once is Enough＞]

[Achievement Reward: Bonus Points +5]

However, the moment I approached the portal, an unexpected achievement notification popped up.

I blinked as I saw the floating hologram window in front of my eyes and the letters written on it.

“What is this again?”

I just tried to break it at once as a challenge, and I didn’t save any party members because I thought it would be nothing but baggage, but unexpected achievements and rewards dropped.

‘I haven’t heard of such an achievement? Could it be that no one has accomplished this feat?’

no, it won’t be

LOST is a game with so many monsters.

It may be possible if it is limited to the early days of opening, but it cannot be for 15 years.

that it is

‘Even though he achieved the achievement, he must have not revealed it.’

There is nothing to go far.

Right away, Dojin himself had no intention of sharing how he obtained additional stat rewards in the tutorial.

Originally, pain diminishes when left over, and the more you monopolize happiness, the sweeter it is.

“This is real… It’s such a good start.”

The unexpected harvest relieved the fatigue accumulated while passing through the forest of trials.

It must be because of that that the steps toward the portal leading to the outside are much lighter.

It was finally time to finish the tutorial and start the real game.
