3. Recap of Episode 4

Sung stands in front of the Lycan with no weapon, preparing to accept death. However, Sung dodges all of the Lycan’s attacks as his body feels much lighter. Sung’s punches also do significant damage, throwing the Lycan further back.

Sung opens his inventory, pulls out a sword, and then cuts the Lycan in two. Two more Lycans appear as Sung starts swinging his sword around. The last Lycan flees after seeing Sung behead all of the other dogs. Sung notices that he has leveled up after the fight and gained five ability points.

Instead of essence stones, Sung starts getting items from the dead monsters. The dungeon is still locked until Sung kills the boss. Suddenly, a massive pack of Lycans appears and charges toward Sung. However, Sung is filled with the adrenaline of combat as he kills multiple Lycans in intense battle.

Along with a teleportation stone, Sung gets multiple items and an exceptional achievement for killing so many wolves. Sung’s sword is nearly broken, and he has already cleared all the low-level monsters. As Sung wanders down the dungeon, he gets attacked by a huge boss snake. 

The snake breaks Sung’s sword and knocks him around the area. Sung feels utterly helpless against the boss, barely staying alive throughout its attacks. Determined to gain strength, Sung keeps getting up and fighting the snake. Since all of Sung’s points are in strength, he uses his bare hands to crush the snake’s armor and kill it.

Sung gets a Venom Fang Dagger and a Poison potion and is also taken out of the dungeon. After reaching back to the world, Sung senses a dungeon break boss rampaging around the streets. Hunters are barely keeping up due to a shortage of manpower. Sung throws his broken sword and breaks the boss’s defense in one hit, allowing the low-level hunters to kill it.
