‘Even the Shadow Summons that are on the high side of intelligence among the summons did not have such cases.’

Although the probability of just being good luck or the probability of being a false report was high...

‘There is a possibility that it is because the intelligence of the Army Summons rose.’

If it is really so?

‘It is a super jackpot.’

How convenient would it be if the intelligence of the Army Summons continuously rises and reaches a level of understanding like sticky rice cake even if Jin-su speaks like dog rice cake?

‘Even if not to that degree, at least I hope they properly understand words.’

Commands to kill enemies or destroy something are well heard, but if receiving commands to find something or explore, they did many absurd acts as if an error occurred.

Bringing miscellaneous things no different from trash instead of items, finding absurd monsters that are not the designated monsters, and so on.

‘Actually, if only fighting well, they do their rice value.’

Since the reason for controlling summons in general was for combat, there was nothing strange.

‘Things like search, reconnaissance, and exploration are fine if making Kkami do them.’

Jin-su decided to check later and immersed in hunting again. Yet, a few hours later, a report that an inaccessible area was discovered came from the Orc Shaman, one of the Army Summons.

Jin-su decided to check this later as well. And from the day after the first report was sent, 2 Demirich and 2 Orc Shamans continuously raised the same report.

Holy type Army Summon Demirich raises a report, the next batter dark type Army Summon Orc Shaman raises a report, after that dark type Army Summon Demirich reports, and as soon as that report ends, holy type Army Summon Orc Shaman reports, in that style.

‘It is not a duplicate report.’

The 4 summons were hunting while dividing zones each.

‘Is it a false report as expected?’

It was suspicious that other Army Summons are quiet while only Demirich and Orc Shaman continuously raise reports, and that the number of reports is too frequent.

‘It will be fine if checking directly soon.’

The Jin-su party continued hunting while moving hunting grounds. Unless first achievements, there is a limit to achievement work. That is why when the target is monsters with achievements acquired, they concentrated on finding hidden dungeons or clearing open dungeons.

‘Open dungeons have no results at all.’

Information about open dungeons whose locations are publicly known could be easily obtained by purchasing a map at the village shop. But open dungeons that do not annihilate even if cleared and continue to exist had quite stingy clear rewards.

‘It is not that one can enter infinitely either.’

Rather, if infinite entry was possible, he would have frequently used it even for the Blessing’s growth, but...

‘It is that one can enter only the first 1 time.’

Unlike hidden dungeons, open dungeons are not that one continues to be trapped if failing to clear the mission. If walking out of the dungeon on one’s own feet, one can easily escape.

‘Instead, re-entry is impossible.’

It is blowing the only one opportunity as is.

‘It would be good if there is an open dungeon where monsters come out infinitely like the ant tunnel or undead hidden dungeon.’

In the case of open dungeons, the number of monsters that have to be processed as a mission is fixed. Along with that, the level of the monsters is also of a level similar to field monsters, and the number itself is on the few side.

‘If there is such an open dungeon, it would have become famous as a specialty hunting ground long ago.’

Open dungeons were mostly cases with no large difference from field hunting grounds in fact, excluding the fact that mission rewards exist.

Jin-su took the party and arrived at the place Demirich and the Orc Shaman reported.

‘I said the locations are similar.’

What is at the place arrived first among the places Demirich and the Orc Shaman reported was not a hidden dungeon but an open dungeon.

‘Anyway, since it has to be cleared once.’

It is not that he suffered a loss, but it was slightly regrettable.

“Let’s clear quickly and come out.”

“Yes, lord.”

“Yeah, let’s do so.”

The Jin-su party cleared one open dungeon in an instant and moved to the next place. The place moving this time was also a place Demirich and the Orc Shaman reported, and...

‘As expected, it was an open dungeon again. Let’s organize quickly.’

Jin-su led the party and quickly cleared the open dungeons.

‘This is a place without an open dungeon.’

The next place was a place without an open dungeon mark on the map.

“Huh?”

And Jin-su was sincerely surprised.

‘It is a real hidden dungeon?’

There was a real hidden dungeon, not an open dungeon, at the place Demirich and the Orc Shaman reported.

The Jin-su party entered the hidden dungeon.

[You have entered the Forest Scorpion Dungeon.]

[You have received the mission - Subjugation of the Forest Scorpion Group.]

[Challenge personnel 3.]

[Calculating mission clear rewards.]

[Mission clear reward - Spirit Demon Pill.]

[You cannot leave the dungeon until clearing the mission.]

‘Spirit Demon Pill?’

The reward was quite generous compared to the dungeon difficulty.

‘Instead, although it only gives one.’

Honestly speaking, if a normal party, it is a dungeon that about 10 people have to clear. Yet, if only one reward comes out, conflict has no choice but to arise naturally.

‘Because each other will want to eat it.’

Also, a player with experience of intaking a Spirit Demon Pill in the past might want to sell it at the auction house and receive points.

‘It is really nasty.’

Hidden dungeons sometimes give rewards matched to the number of personnel, and sometimes throw rewards hard to divide among multiple personnel like now.

‘As if intentionally instigating conflict.’

Actually, the best method is for the players who want the Spirit Demon Pill to auction among themselves, and the person who wins the bid divides the remaining money to the party members.

‘That is the most general method, but.’

There were many problems.

‘Rather, when a too good reward comes out, the problem becomes larger.’

If a super high-priced item of a degree hard to purchase even if sweeping all the party members’ points comes out, like an enormously rare high-grade class change certificate, skill book, or weapon?

Raising it at the auction house and selling and dividing is the most rational, but if an item of a level where life reversal is possible, a person who becomes greedy has no choice but to come out.

Also, one might say he will sell at the auction house and divide the points and then run away.

‘Even if an appropriate level item, the arising of conflict is similar, but.’

The person who loses in the auction might have dissatisfaction, and also, a person who claims to raise it at the auction house and divide the points saying it was won at too low points might come out.

‘Besides that, there are all kinds of cases.’

Actually, one of the most common reasons parties break was the case of emotions being hurt over handling hidden dungeon rewards.

‘Well, it is a matter that does not apply to our party.’

The Jin-su party cleared the hidden dungeon very easily.

[You have completed the mission - Subjugation of the Forest Scorpion Group.]

[Mission clear reward - Spirit Demon Pill is paid.]

[You can leave the dungeon.]

One Spirit Demon Pill came out as a reward.

“I will just keep this for now. Later if recruiting a new party member, I will have to give it.”

“Yes, understood.”

“Yeah.”

That was the end.

Since both Shin Su-a and Cheon Mu-seong have received and eaten Spirit Demon Pills from Jin-su, they thought this natural.

“Then let’s go out.”

The Jin-su party left the hidden dungeon and moved to another dungeon.

‘It is a jackpot.’

They discovered a hidden dungeon again.

“Let’s enter quickly.”

Along with Jin-su’s words, the Jin-su party entered the hidden dungeon and easily cleared it. From after that, a dungeon party opened.

Most of the dungeons Demirich and the Orc Shaman discovered were open dungeons. But quite a few hidden dungeons were also included.

‘There is not even one that is not a dungeon.’

From Jin-su’s perspective, it was the same as easily discovering hidden dungeons without putting effort.

‘To think achieving such results just with intelligence rising a bit.’

He could not even imagine in his dreams that raising the class levels of the Dominating Necromancer and Ruling Necromancer would return as such a large reward.

‘But why is there no news from the other guys?’

The Bone Dragon, demons, Basilisk, sand worm, variant lycanthrope, Han Man-ok, So Chan-seong were all without news.

‘Leaving the other guys aside, these guys the demons, Han Man-ok, So Chan-seong would have quite high intelligence of the original.’

Around the time Jin-su tilted his head with a puzzled heart, the common point of Demirich and the Orc Shaman floated.

‘Not simply high intelligence, these guys are summons that control summons.’

Demirich controls undead monsters, and the Orc Shaman controls ordinary monsters. Naturally, that much the search range has no choice but to be wide.

‘Yet, rising intelligence of the summon and rising intelligence of the summons the summon controls would be separate.’

If a question arose, it was fine if solving it immediately.

“Kkami.”

Jin-su issued an instruction to Kkami to follow 1 Demirich and watch.

“Kaak! Kaak!”

Kkami excitedly fluttered its wings and flew. Jin-su continued hunting and dungeon clearing while watching Demirich through Kkami’s gaze.

‘The method of controlling summons is different from me.’

Among Jin-su’s summons, the only target that can share vision in real time and issue instructions is Kkami. For the remaining summons, if issuing an instruction to go to some hunting ground and catch monsters, that is the end.

‘Real-time communication is possible, but vision sharing is impossible.’

That is why he naturally thought the undead monsters Demirich controls also move with the same mechanism.

Yet, it was not.

‘Even though outside vision, it issues instructions in real time as if seeing directly.’

Jin-su sent Kkami to the Orc Shaman. And continued observation.

‘The Orc Shaman is the same.’

Until now, Jin-su recognized Demirich and the Orc Shaman simply as summons that control summons.

Yet, it was not.

‘Multiple while one.’

From Demirich and the Orc Shaman’s perspective, the summons were like new eyes, ears, arms, and legs that can be controlled in real time.

‘To think Demirich and the Orc Shaman were this competent.’

Thinking that they individually controlled that many summons in real time, it was only surprising.

‘Since I do not always interact with Kkami in real time. Is it not to that degree?’

It seemed convenient to think that one can control in real time when wanting a roughly semi-automatic robot.

‘Even that degree is enormously amazing though.’

A bright smile bloomed on Jin-su’s lips.

‘If utilizing Demirich and the Orc Shaman to the maximum, one can easily find hidden dungeons.’

Until now, Demirich and the Orc Shaman were slightly lower in importance even among the numerous summons.

‘Although the number is many, the combat power was not on the high side.’

In terms of hunting efficiency, Demirich and the Orc Shaman belonged to the lowest among the Army Summons.

They cannot sweep numerous monsters with excellent body ability coming from overwhelming size like the Bone Dragon, Basilisk, or sand worm. Also, they were inferior compared to the demons, variant lycanthrope, Han Man-ok, and So Chan-seong who have high individual combat power and actively utilize various skills even if the size is small.

‘I thought the advantage is just having many numbers, but it is not efficient at all.’

No matter how many the numbers, if the combat power is low, the hunting efficiency cannot come out well no matter how diligently. But if showing efficiency in dungeon exploration like now, the circumstances change.

‘Let’s entrust hunting to other summons and turn them for dungeon exploration.’

If entrusting inefficient monster hunting to other summons and concentrating on dungeon exploration as rear cleanup, one will be able to move faster than now.

‘Then the possibility of discovering dungeons will also become higher.’

Jin-su immediately implemented his thoughts in reality. Until now, he also designated hunting grounds for Demirich and the Orc Shaman like other summons. But now it was different.

‘Your guys’ mission is to search the regions other summons swept and find hidden dungeons.’

The 2 Demirich and 2 Orc Shamans who received Jin-su’s instruction began moving to the new mission area together with the summons they each lead.
