Episode 6 of Season 2 of "Solo Leveling" commences with Hae-In approaching a miner with a request for a weapon, driven by her desire to delve into the nearby A-Rank dungeon. Meanwhile, Jinwoo and Kihoon’s company find themselves encircled by Kargalgan’s formidable High Orc army. Kargalgan, with a chilling demeanor, informs Jinwoo and Kihoon’s group of his malevolent intentions: to slay, torment, and consume them, all for the amusement of his ruthless troops. In a moment of bravado, Kihoon charges at Kargalgan alone, only to be met with the High Orc leader’s formidable magic and gravity-warping abilities, which not only deflect his attack but also leave him wounded.
Jinwoo swiftly intervenes, rescuing Kihoon from further harm and urging him to flee the dungeon with the others while he confronts Kargalgan and his legions alone. With determination etched on his face, Jinwoo summons forth his Shadow Army, positioning them for battle against the formidable foe.
Elsewhere, Woo and his companions arrive at the site of the A-Rank dungeon. A miner informs Woo that Jinwoo had undertaken a porter’s task for Kihoon, revealing that both Jinwoo and Kihoon’s group had ventured into the perilous depths. The miner adds that Hae-In had also entered the dungeon shortly before they did. As Woo prepares to step into the unknown, a mysterious aura washes over him and his companions, foreshadowing the dangers ahead.
Concurrently, deep within the dungeon, Hae-In surveys the scene, noting the lifeless bodies of High Orcs scattered around her. With grim resolve, she grasps her pickaxe and sets off towards Kargalgan’s location. Meanwhile, Jinwoo, armed with a newly acquired magic skill, empowers his Shadow Army, making them even more formidable in the upcoming conflict.
The battle commences as Jinwoo’s Shadow Army engages Kargalgan’s minions in a fierce clash. Jinwoo, with single-minded focus, strives to reach Kargalgan amidst the chaos, ready to confront the High Orc leader head-on.However, Kargalgan wields his magic with formidable prowess, forcing Jinwoo to retreat and decimating his forces in the process. Seizing this fleeting chance, Kihoon's group makes a daring dash towards safety. Meanwhile, one of Woo's comrades urgently conveys the dire news to him: the A-Rank dungeon's strength is rapidly approaching that of an S-Rank dungeon. In response, Woo promptly instructs his allies to reach out to the Master of Hunters, requesting reinforcements for the beleaguered assault team trapped within the dungeon's depths.
Jinwoo, undeterred, conjures and quaffs a potent potion, summoning forth a legion of undead High Orcs. With a declarative tone, Jinwoo informs Kargalgan of his impending induction into his own military ranks. Kargalgan, intrigued yet wary, speculates that Jinwoo might be a lord of some kind. Nevertheless, the dark sorcerer asserts that he has received an unassailable command to hunt down humans and must comply without question. He issues a grim order to his army: to slay all who dare defy him and bring back their corpses as grim trophies.
Elsewhere, Choi engages in a grave discussion with one of his female associates about the perilous A-Rank dungeon. She expresses her profound concerns, fearing that this incident could spark another catastrophe akin to the Jeju Island disaster. In light of this, Choi solemnly instructs the girl to dispatch a multitude of hunters to the location of the A-Rank dungeon.
As Jinwoo's army clashes fiercely with Kargalgan's forces, Kihoon's group, eager to lend their support to Jinwoo, finds their path blocked by Kargalgan's formidable magical barriers. The sorcerer confronts Jinwoo head-on, attempting to wield his magic against him, only to find it ineffective. Undeterred, Jinwoo summons his mage entourage, who swiftly dismantle Kargalgan's magical shield with precision and power.
Amidst the chaos, Hae-In arrives on the battlefield, her eyes wide with bewilderment at the unfolding spectacle of destruction. The clash between Kargalgan and Jinwoo reaches its zenith, their powers colliding with earthquake-like force. Just as the battle seems poised on the edge of an abyss, Woo arrives on the scene, his presence adding another layer of complexity to the already volatile situation.
Hae-In discovers to her surprise that Woo had been aware of Jinwoo's formidable strength long before she herself had come to realize it. Jinwoo and his formidable army triumph over the menacing Kargalgan. Utilizing his Shadow Extraction ability on Kargalgan's lifeless corpse, Jinwoo transforms the fallen adversary into a loyal shadow soldier, whom he dubs "Tusk." The confrontation escalates as Kihoon's group, accompanied by Hae-In and Woo, confronts Jinwoo. Woo and his men position themselves as a barrier before Jinwoo, informing Kihoon's group and Hae-In that Jinwoo is a highly guarded secret of their association. Woo insists that the events within this dungeon remain concealed from the prying eyes of the outside world. Grateful for Jinwoo's assistance, Kihoon expresses his thanks. Jinwoo further extends a kindness by restoring the will of one of Kihoon's comrades.
Elsewhere, Choi engages in a conversation with Kihoon, recounting the events of the A-Rank dungeon expedition. Choi reassures everyone's safe return and delves into the intelligence he's gathered about Jinwoo's extraordinary abilities. Curiosity piqued, Choi inquiries if Kihoon believes he himself could best Jinwoo in a contest of strength. Kihoon, astutely interpreting Choi's own admission of inability to tackle an A-Rank dungeon solo, concludes that Jinwoo outstrips Choi in power. Choi then tasks Kihoon with bringing Jinwoo to him.
In a serene cafe setting, Jinwoo meets with Jinho, where they casually exchange thoughts on Jinho's recent "guild master" discourse with Myunghan. Meanwhile, outside the Hunters Association building, a cluster of reporters buzzes with excitement, all fixated on the recent awakening of Lee Minsung. Seated in a nearby vehicle, Minsung finds himself lost in contemplation, reflecting on the current state of affairs. The episode draws to a close with a poignant image of Minsung, his gaze directed intently at the gathering reporters.
