Chugong

Jinwoo returns to the double dungeon to get answers and faces his toughest opponent yet. Meanwhile, an S-rank gate looms over Tokyo, and only one S-rank hunter accepts the task and tries to keep the magic beasts from destroying Japan.

"When Jinwoo sets about mentoring one of Jinho's recruits- who also happens to be his sister's good friend--a White Tiger Guild training operation seems like the perfect opportunity to show her what being a hunter really entails. But the moment he and Songyi enter the gate, Jinwoo realizes something is wrong. With a flash of red, the exit vanishes, stranding them and the White Tiger trainees in a frozen forest for what could be weeks--or until someone can defeat the dungeon's formidable boss . . ."--Back cover.

Jinwoo is surprised when he learns that he will be working with Joohee, Mr. Song, Mr. Kim, and the other survivors of the double dungeon on his next raid, but things get complicated when they are joined by a group of criminals and their association minder in the dungeon. When the minder turns on the prisoners and kills them all, Jinwoo realizes he must reveal his true abilities in order to save his friends. After escaping the dungeon, he learns that Dongsoo Hwang, an S-Rank hunter, is coming after him. Sangmin An, second administration team manager of the White Tiger Guild, attempts to recruit him, and Jinwoo finally levels up enough to be eligible for a job, a necromancer.

"The weakest of the weak, E-class hunter Jinwoo Sung has no money, no talent, and no prospects to speak of. And when he enters a hidden dungeon that fateful day, he ends up being left to die in the aftermath of a horrendous tragedy. At death's door, Jinwoo is suddenly invited to be a 'player' by a mysterious voice. Desperate to live, Jinwoo jumps at the chance...but what is this strange new leveling system that only he can see?"--Provided by publisher.
