NOVEL NEXT chapter 19
19 – The museum is alive
Moving by car, we finally arrived at the museum.
Because it was still daylight, there were no zombies to be seen.
“Can I park the car like this?”
The glass that fell first looked around and murmured.
He seems worried that the car will be damaged.
“Well, how are you? We have Hyena. If it breaks, you can get another car.”
“Ah, that’s right. Because we have Hyena.”
“Oh, yes! Don’t make fun of both of us!”
Hyena blushed and slapped my arm.
It was quite painful because I was getting stronger.
I saw a museum made of concrete in the distance.
Unlike usual, the quiet building felt a bit dreary.
“It’s bigger than I thought.”
“First of all, it is the largest museum in our city.”
We slowly made our way to the museum entrance.
That was the moment I arrived at the door.
[You entered the dungeon!]
[Experience obtained in dungeons increases by 10%!]
＜Dungeon Information＞
Name: Museum without owners
Difficulty: E
What: This is a typical museum. While examining the various artifacts, beware of the menacing enemies.
‘Dungeon?’
Is there anything like this in this novel?
By the way, an ordinary museum is a dungeon…?
“Looks like this place has already become a dungeon.”
Yuri, who was reading the message, muttered.
“What is a dungeon phone?”
“It literally turns a certain area or building into a dungeon. Stronger monsters appear, and there are also cases where there are traps.”
Yuri, who was talking, tilted her head.
“More than that, don’t you know that you’re also a reincarnated person?”
“Hmm! Hmm! In my previous life, I wasn’t very active. I haven’t even seen the dungeon.”
“Um, well. The world you and I lived in would be a completely different place.”
I’m glad the glass is subtly simple.
Or maybe I just don’t care because I’m friendly with them.
“Is this better for us than that?”
“Maybe in terms of good rewards.”
Most of the dungeons in the web novels I read were bonanza.
The hidden piece is hidden.
A place prepared for the growth of the main character.
‘Looking at the comments, it seems that the original glass also came to this museum. There must be at least one good item.’
Even if that’s not the case, there is an item worth 10,000 coins hidden here.
To be precise, the key to obtain that item.

Although I was a bit surprised by the word dungeon.
Rather than that, the expectations for the item were more advanced.
“Then let’s go.”
We entered the museum cautiously.
The inside was wider and darker than expected.
I walked slowly and inspected the artifacts on display.
The first thing that caught my eye was a stone tool that was used during the Stone Age.
“Hmm, these things won’t help much, will they?”
“If it’s something great, you’ll feel the magic when you look at it. It won’t be easy to find.”
“Is there a standard for good artifacts?”
“I like items with a high historical reputation. Like the sword the master used.”
Where should I get the sword Cheok Joon-gyeong used?
A sword master from the Goryeo Dynasty would be different.
We continued to enter the museum.
A room with a mannequin standing came out with a large space.
“What is this?”
“Hmm, they say they are old people made of wax.”
Hyena said while reading the notice board.
The dolls felt as if they would move at any moment.
Is it because the museum is quite dark?
It felt oddly scary.
Yuri’s expression also darkened.
“…The people in this world are so cruel. Making a human corpse into a spectacle.”
“No, it can’t be! It’s all fake!”
“Oh, is that so?”
“But there are museums in foreign countries that display real corpses.”
“Oh, I want to go there too.”
…It wasn’t a conversation for girls who would enjoy their youth.
Did Apocalypse make children like this?
It was when I was walking slowly while looking around the ruins.
“Wait a minute.”
Suddenly, Yuri stopped us.
His hand naturally moved towards the sword he was wearing at his waist.
Seeing that, I also lifted my baseball bat.
Hyena also raised the dagger with a tense expression.
“why? What do you have?”
“Strange. I feel alive. There is no sign of anything coming.”
Yuri has much better senses than normal people.
It can sense mana, presence, and even death.
Sensation enough to detect the location of the boss in advance.
Yuri’s words could be trusted.
“A battle seems unavoidable.”
Immediately after Yuri’s words.
Suddenly something appeared from the side.
It was a wax figure that had been silent until a while ago.
“uh?”
A soldier in military uniform holding a weapon.
Its pupils were directed directly at Hyena.
At the same time, I wanted to move forward.
He swung his sword at us.
“Kyaaak!”
Hyena lowered her head and narrowly avoided the sword.
At about the same time, Yuri’s sword slashed the guy’s wrist.
Of course, he didn’t even scream.
It is questionable whether he felt pain in the first place.
“After zombies are living dolls!”
– Pleasant!
Straight away swinging the baseball bet.
The hard head was smashed and scattered as it was.
Sorry, but that wasn’t the end of it.
Creepy voices were heard from all directions.
“Ahhh….”
“Ahh…..”
It seems that all the dolls in the room are starting to move.
The guys, each with a weapon, approached us.
“A… aa aa…”
“ohoh oh oh…..”

The mannequins were truly global.
Even the zombies were gross.
The way the poorly made dolls move is also grotesque.
‘Still, it’s not difficult to deal with at this level.’
Unlike zombies, though, they are armed.
Other than that, there isn’t much of a difference.
Even more so, there is a reincarnated Yuri by our side.
It didn’t feel threatening.
“Ji, Jihoon-ah…Look over there…”
Then Hyena said in a trembling voice.
I reflexively turned my head and my eyes widened.
“What is that?”
The head of the doll that was smashed by me earlier.
The fragments were moving on their own and coming together.
What shape would you like to make?
It was completely united and returned to its original face.
It sticks around my neck again.
“Ahh…”
“It was played?”
The man whose head was restored stood up again.
Unknowingly, I laughed out loud at the absurd sight.
I never thought a doll would have that kind of ability.
‘No, isn’t this a pretty big deal?’
Even if you break it, it will come back to normal.
No matter how much you fight, it won’t end.
It’s already full of dolls in front of you.
To make matters worse, the broken guy is trying to attack again.
“Uh uh… uh huh?”
But the guy suddenly tilted his head.
There was no sword in my hand.
When I looked closely, Hyena was holding the sword tightly in both hands.
“Hye-na, is that?”
“Ah, I thought it would be more useful than a dagger.”
Our Hye-na, at some point, you really have adapted to destruction.
In that short gap, grab your weapon.
– Quickly!
I hit the doll’s chin again as a test.
His neck bent 90 degrees and he fell to the floor.
But it flew back to my neck and got stuck.
And it moves again as if it never did.
“Nawon. how to do this.”
“Because your body is not their main body.”
Yuri said and swung her sword.
In just one sword attack, a number of dolls fell.
Even though they were trying to get back together.
It was also a great swordsmanship.
“These guys are real souls, not bodies. If you don’t break it, it will keep playing.”
“…So that’s why you made me buy it?”
Yuri grinned at my question.
“Honestly, I didn’t expect it to be written this quickly. I must say I was lucky.”
The regenerated ones charged again.
Yuri accurately cut off their legs.
Then it flew up and
It also blows away other dolls that were bouncing at us with a round kick.
‘Awesome.’
A movement that was not glamorous but even elegant.
The white legs bent the doll’s neck 180 degrees.
Her hair, tied back with her skirt, swayed.
“If you attach the amulet to your weapon, it will properly attack. Give it a try. It will buy you time.”
Yuri, who said that, seemed a little happy.
It must have reminded me of how I protected it from bugs during the boss fight.
‘It’s really reassuring to think that we’re on the same side.’
With that thought in mind, I took something out of my pocket.
It’s the ‘Pasa’s talisman’ I bought from the hatter.
＜Item information＞
▶Name: Pasa’s Talisman
▶Type: Amulet
▶Rating: D
▶Effect: Can give a strong blow to the spiritual body.
▶Description: It is an amulet that allows ordinary people to reach the spiritual body. You can attach the amulet directly or attach it to a weapon. The weapon has stronger destructive power against spiritual bodies.
I attached the ‘Pasa’s amulet’ to the baseball bat.
Then, he struck the head of the first doll that appeared.
– Quickly!
The third smashed head already.
But this time things are different.
The broken body trembled.
It just turned to powder and collapsed.
‘It works!’
[You have acquired 80 Coins.]
[Slightly recovers physical strength and fatigue with the effect of the skill ‘Eat Monster’!]
Is it because it is a special monster?
The destruction coin also came in more than zombies.
As long as they can attack, they are no different from zombies.
I attached a talisman to Hyena’s sword and threw it to Yuri.
“Yuri Lee, take it!”
Yuri accepted the amulet without looking back.
At the same time as I swung my sword and broke the running doll.
He even showed off the feat of tearing off the amulet and attaching it to the sword.
As he swung the sword, the heads of all three dolls were blown off at the same time.
The decapitated dolls turned to dust.
Truly overwhelming combat power.
“Yuri is really amazing.”
“I know. After all, the experience is different.”
Of course, we didn’t stop and continued to swing our weapons.
Great effect of Pasa’s amulet.
In an instant, their numbers dwindled.
– Quickly!
Let’s blow the last doll’s head like that.
The first battle in the museum is over.
There was a heap of white powder on the floor.
I didn’t know because they were fighting like crazy, but it seems that there were quite a few of them.
‘Thanks to that, the coin came in pretty well.’
Coincidentally, thanks to the lottery, I also collected quite a bit of coins.
Seeing the coins piled up one by one makes me feel like a rich man.
“Phew! I thought I was really dying when the broken doll was put back together!”
Did the tension ease after the fight?
Hyena said while crying.
“It was fortunate that I bought Pasa’s amulet in advance. If I made a mistake, I could have been blocked from the beginning.”
“Does this kind of monster keep appearing?”
“There is a high probability that dungeons will have different types of undead. Especially in a special place like this.”
“That’s a bit disappointing.”
I’d rather be a zombie
I think I’m going to get a little sick of dealing with these guys all the time.
“Anyway, let’s go in some more.”
After a short break, we opened the closed door.
But then something unexpected popped up.
“uh!?”
“what?”
A moment of silence passed.
Soon, a woman opened her mouth.
“You guys… did you come through those dolls?”
There were a little less than 10 people sitting in it.
After the last crap.
They were the second survivors I met.
