The dimension within the dungeon is usually called Gehenna.

Not only the natural environment, but also ruins, temples, and sometimes faded royal palaces appear as dungeons.

Scholars studying Gehenna estimated that it was an early modern civilization, except for ether-based artifacts.

It is a world where various races live with monsters.

Yoo Ji-Ha knew where this royal palace was because he had access to many ancient books and materials.

‘This is the Estram Kingdom for sure.’

Looking at the structure and location of the royal palace, it was almost identical to the illustration of an ancient book he had seen before.

So, is this elder lich a royal family of Estram?

‘I don’t know that much, but…’

The important thing now was to kill the Elder Rich who was waving his wand arrogantly.

‘Where are they?’

Yoo Ji-Ha, who was looking for Theradrones, was delighted to see the corps lined up next to him.

Even if he didn’t speak, they gathered together on their own.

Ten rows were accurately aligned, and the Warrior came forward as if representing the Theradrone.

It was a lot larger than when he first saw it, and above all, their number has grown significantly.

‘I think there are about 500?’

As expected, the number increases tremendously when the queen returned.

Where on earth have they been hiding on this land?

Come to think of it, where is the Earthworm that first dug into the ground?

Yoo Ji-Ha pokes the ground around the kingdom of Estram with his fingers.

“Come on, your job is to get in there and bring back the Elder Lich’s source. Got it?”

Will the insects understand him?

At the moment of doubt, Theradrone Warrior moved vigorously.

Leading the Theradrone Corps, they entered the border and stopped at the cliff leading to the Royal Palace.

From Yoo Ji-Ha’s standpoint, a small but huge rock for the Theradrone was blocking the way.

A message came to mind.

[A large boulder is blocking the army’s progress.

More direct support seems to consume an amount of essence.

‘Can they remove this big rock?’

Even if it was removed, it seemed that a great deal of power would be consumed.

Yoo Ji-Ha brought potions and sap jelly close to the leaf plate for regular consumption.

It would be nice if Beom came forward, but this guy didn’t seem to know anything about the world beyond the border.

‘He’s sleeping well.’

If that’s the case, Yoo Ji-Ha has no choice but to use the essence to clear the rocks.

When he picked No. 1 and put his hand on the rock, he quickly put it away because he was afraid that a few Theradrones including the Warrior would be crushed and killed.

After clearing the fist-sized rock over the valley, the Theradrone Corps began to march again.

But there was an obstacle that blocked them, it was the Bone Knight army.

A message popped up and a fierce battle ensued.

‘You can’t lose to those skeletons.’

Fortunately, the Bone Knight was a monster similar to the devil ant.

The more powerful Theradrones swung their tongs at random and crushed them.

‘They are like real soldiers.’

Looking closely, the tasks are clearly divided.

Most of the soldiers fight in the front, and relatively few in the rear support.

Even if it was a fight, they did not push recklessly like the Bone Knights, but rather a method of returning to the front line after replenishing stamina by retreating to the rear if they are slightly injured.

In the meantime, the Warrior’s activity was truly one-of-a-kind.

It’s like a cannon of the Three Kingdoms jumped into the midst of the miscellaneous soldiers.

Even with a clumsy knife, the warrior’s carapace can’t get a single wound.

If he’s going to charge, ten Bone Knight will fall.

This is Ilkidangcheon1One calvary can defeat 1000 enemies.

‘Awesome…’

While Yoo Ji-Ha was admiring, he attacked the lich that appeared from behind the warrior corps, taking dozens of Theradrones and charging deep into the enemy’s camp.

—Aaaaah! My soldiers! Defend the lord’s tribute box!

Lich was talking about something, but Yoo Ji-Ha did not understand it because it was not the official language of the continent.

The warrior felt threatened by the Lich, ignoring the skeletons and attacking only the lich.

It’s falling!

Instantly, a blue lightning bolt came out of the staff and attacked the warrior.

The guy wanted to hold on for a while, and then he slumped down, spewing smoke from his body.

‘This.’

It’s a great magic to break through the resistance of the warrior.

However, he quickly woke up and grabbed Lich with his tongs to see if he was also fatally wounded.

—Let go! You damn Servants of the cursed tree!

Boom! Boom!

Lich swung his staff and poured all kinds of magic on the warrior’s carapace.

It was evident that he was suffering, so Yoo Ji-Ha immediately applied the worker’s blessing.

As his stamina and lightning resistance increased, the Warrior gave strength to the tongs holding the Lich.

—Kwaaaaa!

The Lich’s waist could not withstand the force of the tongs and was split in two.

The corpse that fell on the floor slowly turned into a skeleton as the ashes fluttered, and the surrounding Bone Knights collapsed.

‘It’s done.’

Yoo Ji-Ha clenched his fists.

As expected, the best way to deal with this type of undead summoner is to attack the main body.

The Warrior bought the Lich’s Essence.

Essence was used to help them, so should he replenish it with this?

Because a lich is a horror-grade monster, the essence is also large.

“Thank you.”

Now, the Theradrone corps, carrying the wounded, marched through the cliffs and into the plains heading to the royal palace.

When they opened the door of the half-destroyed royal palace, the guys cautiously entered inside.

‘It looks like this inside.’

The walls became transparent, and the interior of the palace was visible.

Yoo Ji-Ha’s gaze was fixed on the back of the Theradrone Warrior, who bravely roamed the palace.

***

‘Well…’

It is certain that the people of the Estram Kingdom have perished.

It is not known how long it has been since they were destroyed, but monsters were crawling all over the palace.

They were all below hate grade, so there was no problem for the Theradrone Corps to move around.

Every time they dealt with a few guys, the guy acting as a liaison took the essence and brought it to Yoo Ji-Ha.

“You can bring it later.”

When he said that, he lifted his tongs and seem to ask, ‘Is it okay?’

Whether this is communication or pretending to understand is unknown.

In any case, the guy returned to the front line with the essence, and Yoo Ji-Ha paid attention to the movement of the warrior.

‘He’s bigger than I thought.’

Assuming that the structure of the royal palace was made based on human standards, it can be seen that the Theradrone Warrior is large enough to fill the hallways.

If it was too narrow, it was widened by breaking the wall, and if it seemed impossible, the smallest one was sent in to search.

In some ways, it seems to be smarter than Yoo Ji-Ha.

The results of the search were scattered in the hallway.

A sword adorned with jewels, accessory box, etc. which seemed to have no practicality, were collected.

When the warrior instructed something with the tongs, the liaison officer hung it on the tongs and brought it to Yoo Ji-Ha.

“Huh? You don’t have to bring anything like this.”

However, as soon as he put down the treasure, he went back to the border.

When Yoo Ji-Ha put it on the palm of his hand, it became large.

“Wow…”

It was a dazzling sword and accessory box that seemed to cost a lot at a glance.

[Seal of Estram Kingdom

Rarity: Unique

Stats: Spirit +5

Characteristics: Charisma of the Ruler]

‘Is the sword a seal?’

The options given to the artifact subject were no different.

Is it because the seal itself has great value?

‘It’s the first time I’ve heard of a ruler’s charisma.’

Presumably, it was highly probable that it was something like a whistle that made the people around him obey.

Didn’t it say that natural dignity comes out when you become a king?

He doesn’t think he will own it.

He wanted to return it to the royal family of Estram, who was the original owner, but there was a high probability that he had already died.

‘What’s in the box…’

There were 10 Ribble gold coins, not accessories.

The actual value is not that high, but there are many people who like these gold coins, so they used to be traded at around 400,000 to 500,000 won at the wholesale centers.

‘Ghee, 4.5 million won2total of 10 ribble.’

It is an amount that is difficult to obtain even if Yoo Ji-Ha has been in business for several days.

No, business is good these days.

He couldn’t give it to anyone, so he decided to keep it and dispose of it later and put the sword and box in his backpack.

Following the Theradrone Warrior, Yoo Ji-Ha noticed that he was eager to search the royal palace.

Everything he thought was useful to the owner who he swore his allegiance was being pulled out in the hallway.

Thanks to this, Yoo Ji-Ha got a lot of silver plates, candlesticks, forks, and knives.

“Haha, you don’t have to.”

Yoo Ji-Ha’s idea is that he only needs enough food to live, but he decided to receive it because they were gifts.

Now Theradrones were digging underground.

When he dug into the floor with his front foot, a hole was dug as if it were sand.

‘If it’s the life source of the lich, I think it’s somewhere in the dark.’

In a dimly lit room with only light of candles, an altar was prepared, and a box made of bones.

“Huh?”

The place Yoo Ji-Ha imagined was found.

The Theradrone Warrior looked up at the sky after tearing down the wall with tongs.

The figure looked like a puppy wishing for praise, so Yoo Ji-Ha laughed.

Then a message appeared.

[The origin of the Elder Lich has been discovered. In order to destroy the source, it is necessary to evolve your faithful subordinates.]

There is only one evolve option.

It also requires 5 Essence.

‘It cost a lot to evolve!’

Yoo Ji-Ha felt like being scammed, but there’s no way to destroy it, so he had to do it.

When choosing the choice, golden particles gathered around the Theradrone Warrior.

The small loft collapsed as it spread its carapace and inner wings, and the surrounding Theradrones evacuated.

Eventually, the light disappeared and a Theradrone Knight was born.

Yoo Ji-Ha could not help but admire the majestic appearance.

‘You’re almost as big as a walnut now.’

There were protrusions protruding from the carapace, and a large horn was formed on the tongs.

Some of the Theradrones also evolved into warriors, perhaps because of that.

Take money and evolve the Theradrone.

Yoo Ji-Ha was satisfied with this journey.

However, there was one person who was not satisfied, the Elder Rich.

The guy was running outside the palace, leading his servants.

—How dare you disturb my rest! You will not be able to escape death. Aaaaaah!

When he shouted something, as if Theradrone Knight had heard it, he destroyed the source.

The Elder Rich and surrounding monsters slowly melted and changed into ashes where the wind blew it away.

Now all that is left is to cleanse the polluted land.

The method is to completely remove the soil.

While the Theradrones returned to the forest and took potions and sap jelly while resting, Yoo Ji-Ha began to dig up the contaminated ground with a seedling shovel.

As the purple-colored soil flew away, it disappeared without accumulating.

‘The branches I had removed before disappeared like that, too.’

It seems that the forests clear out things that are judged to be garbage.

However, the polluted land did not disappear.

He wondered how deep it was, so he kept digging and it was close to 50cm.

As Yoo Ji-Ha digs, Beom wakes up and begins to help with his tongue out.

Hundreds of moderately large Theradrones rushed in and dug up the soil.

“Whew… You guys do a better job than me.”

Even though the Theradrone seems small, the speed of work was faster than the exhausted Yoo Ji-Ha due to the large number of factors.

After about an hour, the contaminated soil completely disappeared, and the levelling work was completed.

Yoo Ji-Ha went to the sea to catch some fish and gave it to the Theradrone Corps.

“Isn’t it a bit too much for you to eat only sap jelly, right?”

The guys danced their hips and rejoiced.

Yoo Ji-Ha had a bonfire and had a late meal with Beom.

A few essences were placed in front of him.

‘It’s 15, what are you going to do with this?’

Looking at the status window, he was concerned about stamina.

Despite the strength, the stamina to work in the forest is so low that even the slightest movement makes it easy to get tired.

After investing 10 essences in endurance, it rose to 8 and vitality increased to 80.

‘Because there is no other use for it anyway.’

If you are a worker, you should invest in stats that can help work like a worker.

When Yoo Ji-Ha was satisfied with his decision and lay down on his back, Beom jumped into his stomach.

Wow!

“Aww, you’re totally covered with dirt.”

The two rolled on the floor and the Theradrones went into the hole.

Evening was approaching.
