Priests nodded.
“Let’s go.”
“We came this far so might as well see the end.”
After taking a break to recover their vitality, they kept moving on. Undead endless jumped at them but holy spells from paladins and priests blasted them. Evil spirits came at them from the ceiling, walls and floors, and sometimes Vandal knights appeared.
Weed advanced onwards with the torch and Geomchis, Pale’s group, priests, paladins and Necromancers followed closely behind.
“The Undead keep coming, do you think we can succeed?”
“I don’t know. But it’s Weed who’s leading us so I’m pretty sure we can succeed.”
“But first to be defeated maybe us….”
They could only follow filled with pessimism and irritation.
Monsters even came out from old paintings, Vargo Fortress dangerous dungeon was of impossible standards.
“The wall!”
“Ghosts coming out from the wall. Avoid them.”
“Look out for the monsters on the ceiling!”'
Despite the fact that there were a lot of paladins and priests gathered, victims due to the Undeads’ ambushes increased. If there is some health left, they could be saved by using a lot of healing spells but Undead with unbelievable levels killed about six Geomchis and paladins in a split second.
As a top priority, Priests were protected from every dangers but even so, there were many casualties among them. There were dangerous situation where they were attacked simultaneously back to front, but finally they were able to arrive at the wine cellar which was their destination!
If they just opened the door Balkan was waiting.

“Ah! Now the fight against Balkan is waiting before them. It is the moment we’ve all been waiting so long for.”
“It is a battle with tremendous stakes for Weed.”
The scene of Weed bringing players to invade Vargo Fortress was broadcasted live across many stations. Having advance warning before hand, the regular programs were cancelled and they made it into a special program.
On top of that many of the players were writing in the Royal Road message boards, that it became a large festivity. To express it in one sentence it was, ‘an event that was crazed with joy.’
Viewers’ response were beyond the expectation various broadcasting stations had. It was possible to say that the reason was because it’s Weed’s adventure which was never disappointing.
But there was another reason beyond why the viewers like it.
- It’s totally reckless.
- His guts swollen. How could he order 1 portion of sausage and ask just for the meat?
- Person above that is a tasteless joke. Weed-nim is known to eat a 5-man portion.
- Vargo Fortress! How can he go hunting in such a place?
Weed was unpredictable.
Weed did dangerous things that other users would never do without hesitation.
The feeling of tension and stress that was released at these moments!
Many stations broadcasted at the same time but depending on the disposition of the host, they all said different things.
“Ho Gung, according to the analysis there is high chance that the hunt will fail?”
“That’s right. We’ve completely analyzed their known military strength and as for me, I don’t see any chances of winning.”
“Even though there are priests and paladins, natural enemy of Undead?”
“You can’t just take Balkan’s spells out of your consideration. What is the reason why Necromancers are the most feared? They continuously create allies from corpses. But if that many men go in, it will only end up as a great disadvantage. In the worst situation, everyone will become Undead.”
“So how can they defeat Balkan?”
“I say take a small, very high level group. Currently there are no players at a level to hunt Balkan so you must see it as an impossible monster to hunt. And to be honest, I am very worried what kind of battle will proceed.”
