MTL - Solo Leveling (Only I Level Up)-Chapter 22

Even those low-level monsters know how to hide their existence perfectly.

No, it might be because their level is too low, so they can only hide their tracks, wait for the opportunity, and then launch a sneak attack.

Cheng Jin-Woo passed the public toilet and continued to walk deep, and there were some underground shops in front of him.

The shop was dilapidated, in a mess, like a ruin.

In the dim shop, the silent passage, and the flickering lights above his head, Cheng Jin-Woo felt an indescribable horror and weirdness.

Zizizizizizi...

The few electric lights above the head that seemed to be about to be scrapped flickered non-stop.

Cheng Jin-Woo carefully stepped on the weeds growing from between the broken floor tiles, suddenly a strange feeling climbed up his spine, and he suddenly looked around.

"...."

The surroundings were extremely silent, but he felt a certain sight.

Then, there's this smell.

A stench of severely decomposed animal corpses emanated from the surroundings. To Cheng Jin-Woo, who often entered the dungeons, this smell was already too familiar.

'This smell...is a beast-type monster. '

But he did not find any traces of such monsters nearby.

Like a predator watching its prey.

'Is it ready to sneak up on me?'

In this case, it is better to give it a chance.

Cheng Jin-Woo turned his back on purpose, showing a defenseless posture. Then slowly return along the same path. When their backs are facing beasts, they will pounce on them, and beast-type monsters are no exception.

Just when he took the third step.

boom!

The window of a clothing store behind him was shaken to pieces, and then something jumped out.

As soon as this thing fell to the ground, it rushed towards Cheng Jin-Woo.

"Roar!"

Cheng Jin-Woo had been waiting for this moment for a long time, as soon as he heard the sound, he quickly raised his sword and swung it behind him. It can be said to be a subconscious action!

Whoosh!

The sharp blade cut open and cut off the monster's jaw.

The monster roared in pain and fell to the ground.

"Ho **** ho ho, woo hoo!"

It was a giant wolf with blood-red fur.

The giant wolf with its mouth cut open writhed in pain, Cheng Jin-Woo took a closer look, and its name appeared on his head like a centipede in the punishment area.

'Steeltooth Werewolf'

But unlike the penalty area, its name is white instead of red.

'No time to think so much!'

Warcraft is unable to move due to injury, now is the best time.

Cheng Jin-Woo jumped up, swung his sword and chopped off the giant wolf's head.

"Roar!"

The werewolf roared in pain and stopped breathing.

[Successfully eliminated a steel-toothed werewolf. 】

"very good!"

However, victory is only temporary!

Because two more werewolves hiding in the store jumped out of the window.

Still have accomplices?

Cheng Jin-Woo's eyes widened.

They bared their huge steel teeth and approached quickly.

Cheng Jin-Woo frowned.

He was too excited just now, and now the sword was stuck in the ground, and he couldn't pull it out no matter how he pulled it out.

'It seems to be stuck. '

Just then a werewolf rushed towards him.

"Really!"

Cheng Jin-Woo quickly lowered his head.

The werewolf who jumped over his head fell heavily on his face.

Click!

Its steel teeth pierced the ground, and cracks immediately appeared on the ground.

'No wonder it's called a steel-toothed werewolf. '

But now is not the time to be amazed.

Because the werewolf facing him was rushing towards him.

But the sword that had been thrust into the ground showed no signs of loosening.

"Damn it!"

Cheng Jin-Woo had no choice but to give up drawing his sword and clench his fists to swing at the werewolf.

Whizzing!

With the howling wind, the fist hit the werewolf straight.

With just one blow, the werewolf's head was blown off.

The headless werewolf body hit the ceiling and fell limply to the ground.

Boom!

"...?"

Cheng Jin-Woo stared blankly at his fist with his eyes wide open.

Unexpected power.

Chapter 14 Upgrade!

The werewolf who jumped over Jin Yu's head just now saw this scene, and immediately put its tail between its legs and prepared to run away.

"what......?"

Is this the effect of increasing the strength value?

Cheng Jin-Woo could not close his mouth from ear to ear in shock, and the werewolf whose head was blown off by him quickly stopped twitching.

Then he heard the familiar mechanical beep.

jingle!

[Successfully eliminated a steel-toothed werewolf. 】

【Level up!】

"The level has increased?"

In order to make sure that he heard correctly, Cheng Jin-Woo hastily called out the status window.

【Name: Cheng XiaoWoo】

【Level: 2】

【Occupation: None】

【Title: None】

【HP: 205】

【MP22】

【Fatigue: 0】

【ability】

He did escalate.

And all his ability values ​​have increased a little.

This shows that it is not only task rewards that can improve ability value. Upgrading can also increase the ability value.

'It can really be upgraded!'

'

The vague conjectures in my mind were finally confirmed.

His heart started pounding.

'And upgrades can increase the number of points more. '

You can get three ability points from the mission rewards.

However, upgrading can get five points of ability.

Although the ability value cannot be distributed as you like, it is faster to increase the ability value through upgrading.

And the daily task is only once a day, but there is probably no limit to the number of upgrades.

'I just solved the two ends, and this is an upgrade. '

It's the same in the game.

When the level is low, the upgrade speed will be very fast.

Cheng Jin-Woo is only two levels now.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is now at the bottom.

But he's no ordinary low-level player either. His strength value has reached thirty.

Assuming that every time he goes up one level, his strength value increases a bit, then Cheng Jin-Woo's strength value is already equivalent to level 20 or above.

So what will happen to a "player" with a strength value of level 20 or above hunting in a "level 1" hunting area.

'Of course it's brushing...'

The destructive power of that punch just now far exceeded expectations, which already proved Cheng Jin-Woo's conjecture.

"The strength value may have increased by a little more than three times, but... the difference in actual strength is far more than that."

Cheng Jin-Woo's initial strength value was only ten.
