Among the items that could be obtained from dungeons, the most valuable were, of course, legendary items .

Ever since they first started appearing, their value went without saying .

Even as the number of players targeting dungeons increased, the value of legendary items continued to increase, and by 2024, legendary items were things that could only be traded with other legendary items .

In fact, the transaction of legendary items was something that rarely happened .

Under such circumstances, it was naturally the sealed weapons that started to gain attention .

Of course, the interest in sealed items was high even before that .

After all, everyone believed that these items were bound to be valuable items .

The problem was, no one knew exactly how to unseal them .

It was the gastric juice of a Golden Dragon hunted by the Dragon Slayer that changed the situation .

Due to the gastric juice that was capable of removing almost any seal, players were finally able to unseal the sealed items, which led to them realising that these items were almost all legendary items .

Because of that, a market for sealed items was created, and they began to be traded .

At some point, they even began to act as a form of currency .

“He collected a lot . ”

That was the reason Park Yong-wan put a lot of sealed items on the market ahead of an important challenge .

“Rather than that, why is Park Yong-wan doing business with Se-chan? What would he see in such a cheap baldy? Does he not have anyone else to do business with?”

In addition, Park Yong-wan delegated the disposal of the sealed items to Park Yong-wan .

The reason was simple .

“Because he would be able to get whatever he wants, whenever he needs it . ”

“Huh?”

When Park Yong-wan was trying to find an item to give to Isaac Ivanov, it was Oh Se-chan who supplied it to him before anyone else .

In addition, when he made the deals with Isaac Ivanov and Kim Woo-jin, Park Yong-wan did so through Oh Se-chan .

Not only the provision of items, when he had to launder money or prepare hideouts, Oh Se-chan was the one he turned to .

Therefore, it was natural for Park Yong-wan to consider Oh Se-chan to be a reliable and helpful broker .

“Park Yong-wan definitely committed many sins in his past life . ”

Of course, for Lee Jin-ah who knew the truth about the matter, he couldn’t help but feel sorry for Park Yong-wan .

“Whoo, if I was in his position, I would rather shave my head and go to a temple than get sucked dry by you two leeches . ”

While Lee Jin-ah was sympathizing with Park Yong-wan, Kim Woo-jin looked through the items one by one .

In all honesty, Kim Woo-jin didn’t know the identity of the sealed items just by seeing them .

He was just checking to see if any of them overlapped with his memories .

Moreover, despite his efforts, Kim Woo-jin only had two items he wanted to unseal .

He could only narrow down the options as much as possible .

‘It’s not going to be easy . ’

It took a very long time to compare countless items with those in his memories .

It was a process that would definitely take more than a day .

There was no time to waste, so Kim Woo-jin simply kept his mouth closed and kept inspecting every item .

“Hmm . ”

Lee Jin-ah also began following Kim Woo-jin and inspecting the items organised around them .

“If you’re lucky you could get a legendary, right?”

Of course, Lee Jin-ah didn’t actually inspect these sealed items too closely .

“How about this one?”

Lee Jin-ah picked up an ordinary sword and asked .

“Doesn’t this look like Excalibur(1)?”

Naturally, Kim Woo-jin ignored him, but Lee Jin-ah didn’t mind it, instead, he grabbed a spear behind him and said .

“I got a good feeling about this one . I’m sure it’s Gungnir(2) . Hey, let’s unseal this one . ”

Once again, Kim Woo-jin ignored him .

Suddenly, Lee Jin-ah stretched out his hand as though he’d found something .

What he then picked up, was a steel square .

In all honesty, if this item’s status window didn’t say ‘Hammer Head’, no one would actually think that it was a hammer head .

Holding this hammer head, Lee Jin-ah then shouted .

“Wow! I’m Thor! Bring it on Thanos!”

When Lee Jin-ah started acting like Thor, one of the heroes of the marvel universe, Kim Woo-jin turned to look at him .

Naturally, their eyes met .

“Huh?”

Kim Woo-jin’s eyes were cold, colder than he’d ever seen them .

Seeing this, Lee Jin-ah smiled awkwardly and tried to find an excuse .

“I-, it was a joke, a joke . Haha, men play around like this sometimes, don’t they?”

However, despite this excuse, Kim Woo-jin didn’t turn away from him, instead, he approached him with the same expression .

Gulp!

Lee Jin-ah subconsciously swallowed his saliva when he saw this .

‘Dammit, did I say too much?”

At the same time, Kim Woo-jin said to Lee Jin-ah .

“Lee Jin-ah . ”

“Y-, yeah?”

“Good job . ”

“What?”

Lee Jin-ah was surprised .

“Isn’t this ironic?”

When Kim Woo-jin took the hammer head from him, Lee Jin-ah’s blank expression became one of surprise .

“You’re really lucky . ”

…

After the world changed into a game in 2020, dungeons steadily and endlessly appeared in the world .

And over the years, higher leveled dungeons appeared one after another .

The highest floored dungeon that had appeared so far, was the 8 Floor dungeon, Orc Lord’s Kingdom, which appeared in the Caspian Sea .

When it came to the 7 Floor dungeons below that, there were nine of them .

[Isaac Ivanov’s team will attack the Goblin Lord’s Kingdom!]

[Isaac Ivanov’s team heads to Pakistan!]

Among the nine, the alliance between the Phoenix Guild and Thunderbird, led by Isaac Ivanov had chosen the Goblin Lord’s Kingdom, which was located in Pakistan .

It was a place where rebels and terrorist groups of all kinds were constantly at war, a literal battlefield .

In other words, this attack was mainly possible because that was the location .

Entering a 7 Floor dungeon in a country with a functioning government would require a lot of processes and costs .

Among them, the most troublesome problem was the time .

When attacking a 7 Floor dungeon, it wasn’t only about the public’s attention that had to be kept in mind, it was also an unspeakable risk .

In the event of a problem, it could be equivalent to a national disaster, therefore the approval wasn’t given lightly .

This was the most worrying aspect for Isaac Ivanov’s team, who were currently in a race against time .

Conversely, entering the 7 Floor dungeon in Pakistan was comparatively easy .

[The Pakistani government approves of Isaac Ivanov’s team’s attack request!]

The government’s approval could be easily obtained by handing over some money, and in truth, even that was unnecessary .

If they had the confidence to enter the dungeon in this place that had turned into a battlefield, then they could attack the dungeon at any time .

“I got a call from the advance team . ”

That was why Thunderbird’s value was incomparable in the current era .

“The dungeon area has been cleared and the route has been secured . ”

While other guilds had to wait on the government’s forces, they could simply prepare the stage for themselves .

Moreover, Thunderbird’s ability to handle the terrorists and rebels far surpassed that of most countries’ special forces .

Their weapons were one thing, but they had also experienced countless battles in their journey to become the emperor of the most deadly place in South America .

“Great . ”

A week after obtaining the Pakistani government’s approval, even Park Yong-wan was forced to acknowledge them when the news that they secured the 7 Floor dungeon gate, which had been held by a terrorist group .

“I can’t believe that an individual was able to amass this level of military power under a company . ”

On the other hand, he had no choice but to increase his vigilance against the Lightning King, who was in control of such military power .

‘If I eat Thunderbird, I’d gain all of that . ’

At the same time, his greed for Thunderbird also grew .

In any case, since the route to the dungeon had already been secured, all that remained was for them to walk the path .

Before that, Kim Woo-jin checked the dungeon’s details .

[Goblin Lord’s Kingdom]

‘The Goblin Lord’s Sword . ’

As he looked at the dungeon report, Kim Woo-jin, who couldn’t help but recall some memories from his past, closed his eyes .

Then the Lightning King walked up to him and said .

“Isaac, let’s start the attack . ”

And so the attack began .
