“Can anyone attempt it?” Woojin asked. 

Minchan blinked, “What? No way. It’s very dangerous to attack a newly formed dungeon. The guild usually takes care of these jobs-”

Woojin interrupted, “Does the guild have a monopoly over it?”

“…….” Minchan thought about what he should say for several moments. In truth, the guild couldn’t claim a monopoly over dungeons. Indeed, there were Awakened teams that were independent, and even some who managed to come into ownership of a dungeon. But in most cases, guilds owned the dungeons, since only they possessed Awakened teams that were specialized in attacking dungeons. 

Woojin continued, “Just tell me, can I attack it or not?”

Minchan spoke carefully, “You can. But you would only be able to do so after the dungeon’s Energy has been measured.”

Woojin sighed, “Jeez. Just give me an explanation without holding anything back.”

Minchan had no choice but to answer him, “The dungeon’s Energy measurement decides the star rating of the dungeon. After that, there’s a rank restriction on those who want to attack the dungeon. For example, if it’s a four star dungeon, it’s restricted to C Rank and above. Five star, B Rank and above. After that, well, only an A rank has the right to attempt a six star dungeon.”

Woojin’s interest was piqued, “Aren’t I a C Rank? If the dungeon turns out to be a four star, then I’ll be qualified to attack it. What’s next?”

Minchan continued, “Awakened are given a chance on a first come first serve basis. If the first challengers fail, then only teams with superior ranked forces are qualified to go next. If there are a lot of competitors, then the order is chosen through lottery.”

“Ho-oh?”...
