The Hunter System
Chapter 74 - Frustrating Opponents (2)

Alvin tried to fend off all the opponent's attacks with his sword and shield.

Although all the attacks could not hit his body directly, but the formation attacking party lich, who attacked him very systematically, managed to make it difficult to escape the siege.

The party had always replaced the attacking team after the melee attackers had started to run out of Mana energy.

As the Assassin lich retreated, the Warrior lich went into the frontline formation to replace them.

He also could not use the opportunity when the Assassin lich retreated to escape from the siege of 5 lich Tank, because at that time the long-range attackers showered him with arrows and fireballs.

As for their tanker which was extremely troublesome, it never lacked Mana energy as the support type lich always helped to recover their Mana energy.

"So here's how to fight a party... They're very troublesome..."

After fighting like that for almost half an hour, Alvin finally understood the attack pattern and the way the opponent changed attackers.

He begins to devise a plan with Mina, to strike back.

"Mina, if I attack that Mage's lich, can I kill them right away? They're S rank, right?"

["Use thunderbolt or shuriken. They're S-ranked, but only S-ranked from this age. With your attack booster, they're not as strong as you think."]

"alright. Thank you." Thank you."

["But, what you need to kill first is actually their Healer who is always recovering the energy of the Mana Tank. Take the chance when these five Tanks ran out of Mana energy. At that time the power of aggro and their taunt was reduced drastically."]

"I understand."

A few minutes later, Alvin finally got the chance.

As the aggro Tanker's magic weakened, he changed jobs to Assassin and disappeared from the encirclement and went to the lich Healer.

Slashwas... Slashwas... Slashwas... Slashh...!

Alvin managed to slash the neck of the fourth Healer, the key to the opponent's party which made him very troubled.

Not until there, he changed jobs again and attacked all the long-range attackers who were near the Healer lich, as well as the Warrior lich who was recovering their Mana energy in that place, with thunderbolt.

Zlarr... Zlarr... Zlarr...!!!

Although the Mage and Warrior lich-lich were on par with S rank hunters, yet when they were hit with the maximum magic power from Alvin, they still could not withstand the power of the lightning strike.

All the lichs in the area were burned without any survivors.

Alvin changed jobs again to Warrior. He took the sword and decapitated all the heads of the Mage and Warrior lich and smashed their heads to ensure the deaths of the lich.

There are only 7 more lichs left. They were the Tank and Assassin lich he had left behind as quickly as possible using a speed booster.

Alvin uses Tank's job to confront them again. It requires self-defense from the job, which does not require much Mana energy.

He also kept all the weapons and fought using only his bare hands with boxing techniques that have been greatly developed from the results of his training day by day.

.........

Alvin makes use of his speed booster to evade the attacks of the two Assassin lich while he also continues to do hard jab-jabs to destroy the Tanker's protective magic.

They continued to fight like that for a few minutes, while Alvin waited for his Mana energy to recover half of the capacity he had.

After the Mana energy recovery target was met, Alvin quickly switched jobs to Assassin and finished off the two Assassin lichs very quickly.

Sratt... Sratt...!!!

Without the powerful aggro nether of the five Tankers who had nearly exhausted their Mana energy, Alvin could finally cut off the necks of the two Assassin lichs.

After that, he used spider webs to snare the five tank lichs, then blasted them with a thunderbolt.

Not to forget, Alvin also beheaded the five lich and then destroyed it after that.

.........

Alvin stood still near the body of the five lich Tank while focusing on helping the system recover Mana energy with his job Healer skill.

He was not at all satisfied because he had succeeded in eliminating the party lich hunter. He knew, whose name was lich, would surely rise after their death.

And it happened a few minutes later.

Lich Healer, the Mage and Warrior who had died first finally rose again. But, Alvin laughed when he saw they looked confused looking for the location of the enemy's existence by fumbling, because their heads had been lost and had been destroyed.

Alvin predicted that. That is why he cut off all the heads of the opponents and then destroyed them.

Alvin approached the undead and set them all on fire.

.........

"According to the lesson I received in the Academy, they would die if burned with fire magic for a few minutes, right?" alvin said, while continuing to burn 23 lich in front of him.

"Rimi, can you tell me my level up in the usual way?"

"..."

["I don't think you're smart either."]

"Tsk... I remember what I learned at the Academy. As long as they were normal lichs, they would die with powerful fire magic."

["You're right. But, they are actually not normal."]

"really?"

["They shouldn't be resurrected when they lose their heads, right?"]

"What's that supposed to be?"

["Huh? Then, why would you break their heads if you didn't think so?"]

"I just want them to be confused when they get up headless."

["..."]

Alvin could hear Rimi giggling.

"Rimi, you can actually speak normally like Mina, right?"

<...>

.........

After scorching their bodies and bones, Alvin also burned another 7 lich that had just risen.

["What's the problem?"]

"If finishing off his army alone gets a 3 level increase, what if my level is delayed after successfully eliminating his boss?"

["That won't happen."]

"Huh? Why?"

["Destroy the magic pillar and then just get out. You'll probably die if you face the boss."]

"Don't you say this Dungeon is good for my training?"

["30 Lich hunter is a good one for training. Not with his Dungeon boss."]

"Is the boss still beyond my ability to handle it?"

["Yes. They're still far from your capabilities."]

Alvin was a little upset to hear that. In fact, some time ago he was happy when he guessed that he might have been stronger than Norman and Duncan Lewis. But, now he was said to still not be strong enough for this Dungeon boss.

"But..., wouldn't if I were dying you'd take my place?"

["That's if you're dying. What if the opponent kills you?"]

Alvin shudders.

"You're right..."

["Follow what I suggest."]

"But what kind of creature were they? Why are they so similar to humans?"

["Because they do come from the DNA of humans living in this era. They are cloned creatures."]

"What?!"

["They're actually only in 2065, 15 years from now. I'm also a little confused as to why they're here now."]

Alvin nodded slowly. There was nothing she could respond to because she did not know what was happening in the future that Mina already knew.

["They were from hunter-hunter DNA cloned by the Dungeon creator. Since your opponent was a lich, his boss must have the power of a necromancer. That's why they'll instantly become lich when they die."]

"So so... Meaning, there's a cloned creature that's not a lich?"

["Yes. It all depends on who makes his army."]

"What does that mean?"

["That's it. I'll tell you later. Get out of this Dungeon."]

"Ah, yes... You're right."

["Use stealth and go to the boss area just in case who knows his boss is not a creature that is in the grave. Rimi will remove the aura of your being. Remember, don't try to fight his boss. Just destroy the magic pillar and then use the Assassin job and speed booster to escape."]

"I understand."

......................

Alvin finally went to the Dungeon boss territory.

When he arrived at that place, he saw a large and high mound of earth there, also immediately felt the aura of magic energy that was very uncomfortable and very pressing from the mound of land.

Unfortunately, the tombstone that stuck in the middle of the grave was the magic pillar.

'By the way, where's the boss's companion? There's only one grave here.'

["Look it on the map."]

Alvin opened the Dungeon map, he found no other monsters, other than those in the grave.

Although he was a little happy that he did not see the Dungeon boss' companion, he was very surprised when he saw the red dot on the map was very large. From there he knew that the power of his boss was enormous.

When compared to the size of the green dot that is a point of its own, the comparison is more than half. The green spot is much smaller.

'It is fitting that I feel a very uncomfortable magic air from this grave.'

He then looked at the tombstone above the grave and gulped after it.

'Damn, why should that magic pillar be there?'

["No problem. You just destroy it and leave immediately with the Assassin job."]

'Yes.'

Alvin walked with very light steps to climb the mound which could be said to be a mini hill.

He was rather horrified to imagine what kind of opponent was behind the mound considering that his grave alone was very large.

Fighting against a giant who has great abilities is certainly not a good choice.

.........

Upon his arrival at the top, Alvin destroyed the magic pillar and instantly fled at full speed.

Since the magic pillar has been destroyed, there will be no Dungeon Break because the oldest gate will be closed in the next 1 hour, while the new Dungeon Break will start tomorrow.

But, when Alvin was about to reach the gate, someone suddenly caught his nape, then threw him away from the location of the gate.

Thrown hard and rough, making Alvin roll up many times. His body had just come to a halt from the bounce after hitting and destroying several large trees.

Alvin had just sat down and wanted to stand up, the figure who threw him had already stood before him and caught his neck.

'B-shit... What good is a speed booster if anyone can catch up to me?'

["That's because your level is still below it."]

The creature, who is very similar to humans but cannot speak, strangles and lifts Alvin's body until he is taller than him.

Then, very loudly, he slammed Alvin again to the ground.

Mmmm!!!

The dings formed a deep crater behind Alvin's back.

Not satisfied until there, the creature again strangled Alvin and slammed him many times before dragging him away until they arrived back beside the giant grave.

Alvin can be dragged back to that place not because he did not fight. He had tried as much as possible to release the grip of the opponent, but the finger grip of the creature was very strong, as it was already too weak on the skin of his neck.

'Mina, what should I do? He's very strong.'

["Good luck."]

'A-what?!'
