Synopsis

The chapter opens with Jinwoo one-shotting numerous dungeon beasts, displaying a level of skill and efficiency far beyond what's expected of his supposed experience level, leading to the reveal of his inherent talent honed in a high-level labyrinth. Meanwhile, a separate parasite grants him greater abilities, such as weakness detection. Following the battle, a larger exploration team appears, clearly intending to steal their loot. The chapter ends with the revelation that a powerful organization, the Exploration Association, is effectively controlling the labyrinths and engaging in exploitative behavior.
