Chapter 145. < Episode 46. Upgrade (1). >
1.
[???’s egg]
– It is an unknown egg.
!Dragon egg
!For hatching, ‘power of the nameless god’ is required
!Current hatchability: 14%
Looking at the dragon egg, which hatched much higher than before, Midas let out a long sigh.
“ah.
It was a sigh for the fact that the live was ended urgently as a result of being surprised by this urgent situation.
‘I was scared, so I blew a chance to get one item from Azmo.’
And it was a sigh for losing the opportunity to receive an expensive gift from Azmo.
With a sigh, Midas recalled the situation from earlier in more detail.
“Ugh!”
‘I’m going crazy, I just mentioned an elf’s robe there.’
When the recollection reached the elf’s robes, Midas let out another deep sigh.
The elf’s robe that Midas mentioned there was an item as valuable as the elf’s boots.
First of all, the basic option attached as a legendary item was different.
‘There’s no way I’ll give you a robe with Blink as a gift, right?’
Among them, the most valuable was that blink magic.
The value of blink magic didn’t have to be explained at length.
Even if it’s a short distance, everyone will know the merits of being teleported if you think about it a little.
By wearing an elf’s robe, such blink magic could be used.
‘What’s more, it’s one of the few Legendary items that Azmo got with his own hands.’
Most of all, the elf’s robe was an item that Azmo obtained through the quest.
Azmo, who used to buy most of the items in cash and in a lump sum, bought them with his own hands.
Azmo had no choice but to have a unique value.
just ask for it?
To be honest, if Midas had been able to think normally under normal circumstances, I wouldn’t have said such a thing.
‘Why did I only think of that then?’
That was the only thing that came to mind in that tense moment.
“Oh shit!”
Midas, who had uttered such bitter words, looked at the jackpot, which in a sense was one of the causes of this situation.
Jackpot, who was sitting on Lucky’s head nearby, tilted his head at Midas’ gaze and made a noise.
couw?
will you hit me
Seeing him make such a gesture, Midas laughed.
Needless to say, I couldn’t blame the jackpot here.
‘In a way, it’s like hiding the main scenario quest clues.’
Looking at it positively, the quest information was not given thanks to the sudden end of the live there.
‘Yes, a gift is just a gift.’
Above all, it was foolish to obsess over each and every gift.
‘The important thing is the main dish.’
Midas turned his head while laughing.
Then, the body of the fire snake, which exploded and left only wreckage, was seen.
Toward the corpse, Midas stepped forward now, and when he stood in front of the corpse, he shouted:
“Item loot.”
A notification was heard at such a cry of Midas.
[Looting the item.]
[Acquiring the Crystal of the Fiery Serpent.]
Along with that notification, Midas opened the item window to check the acquired item.
[Fire Serpent’s Crystal]
– Grade: Legendary
– A crystal from the body of a fire snake. I can feel the powerful power of the fiery snake.
The items obtained in this way were different from those previously obtained from boss monsters.
Items obtained from boss monsters usually had treasure attached to the name of the boss monster.
When the treasure chest is opened, the finished product comes out.
But Midas was not disappointed.
It was because I had already guessed.
‘This time, it’s definitely a weapon.’
Until now, the main scenario quests gave me the opportunity to change weapons every time I left the stage.
Not to mention, fire snakes are already famous monsters related to legendary weapon items!
‘If you bring this to Asara, he’ll turn it into a weapon. Zuga will intervene again in the middle.’
Crucially, as Zuga was mentioned in the next quest, there was no doubt that the weapon would come out.
‘I can’t wait to see how it turns out.’
It is only natural that the anticipation for the new weapon is rising.
‘I hope it’s better than this…’ … ‘
On the other hand, there was also anxiety about the possibility that the option would not be better than Tunga’s black wand now.
The new weapon would definitely have much higher attack power than the weapon Midas had now.
However, Tunga’s wand now owned by Midas has Eye Magic and Plus One options.
‘If I have to, I’ll have to switch to the main deal.’
Of course, if you switched items using the telekinesis skill, you could choose two advantages.
‘It’s better to worry about having something
than not having it. ‘
Whatever it is, it will be a business that remains.
“Now then, let’s go outside to get a reward!”
The three animals answered at the same time to Midas’s words.
king!
couw!
“Yes Master!”
2.
The first thing that greeted Midas the moment she came out of the underground maze was NPC Asara.
“I’m glad you came back alive.”
“yes.
“What happened inside the underground labyrinth?”
In response to NPC Asara’s question, Midas told what he had experienced in the underground labyrinth.
Unlike other places, from the existence of degenerated monsters to what happened after hunting the fiery snake.
Upon hearing the story, NPC Asara put on a serious expression.
“So you’re saying that everything in the underground labyrinth has been tampered with by some unknown entity?
“It is very likely.”
“Then it must mean that someone has entered the underground labyrinth to avoid our eyes.”
Asara, the NPC who left those words, looked more serious than ever.
It was worth it.
‘After all, the security has been breached or there is a traitor inside.’
The underground labyrinth is a space that exists underground in Wood Village.
Threatening such a space was like threatening the very existence of Wood Village.
As important as it is, more and clear clues are needed.
“Do you have any physical evidence?”
At NPC Asara’s question, Midas smiled in repentance.
‘That’s right, that’s how it goes.’
Immediately, without hesitation, Midas took out the Fiery Serpent Crystal from his inventory and handed it to NPC Asara.
‘Now, ask me to make a weapon.’
In front of Midas who made such a wish, NPC Asara began to examine the decision of the fiery serpent.
As time passed, her expression hardened.
“This….
At the words that followed, Midas nodded lightly with anticipation.
‘Yes, it’s a material that can make a weapon with very strong power!’
Towards such anticipation, NPC Asara said.
“I don’t know who he is.”
huh?
At that moment, Midas felt something strange.
“You can’t identify me?”
“Yes I…. It doesn’t seem like something anyone in Wood Village can do anything about.”
isn’t this feeling to do.
In that feeling, Midas spoke plainly.
“I don’t think it would be perfect if used as a weapon material?”
“I have made tools using parts of the body of fire snakes, but I have never made tools with these. Above all, within the crystal of this fiery serpent… there is a power that I do not know.”
Midas’ expression crumpled at the words that followed.
NPC Asara said to him.
“I can’t help it unless there is someone who knows how to handle a power similar to this.”
Only then did Midas come to mind.
‘Oh, that’s why I need Zuga.’
The scene when Zuga made a cursed necklace containing the power of a nameless god.
It was as expected.
[A new quest has been created in the Main Scenario Quest list.] The
quest window that popped up with the ensuing notification told me more clearly.
[Zuga’s help]
– Quest level: Main scenario
– Quest level: 120 or higher
– Quest content: Find Zuga and ask for help.
– Quest Reward: None.
!When the quest is completed, ‘upgrade’ can proceed
‘As expected.’
Seeing the contents, Midas laughed.
‘huh?’
However, Midas soon felt something strange and looked at the quest window once more.
‘Is the next quest an upgrade?’
After confirming the contents, Midas’ thoughts froze.
‘Are you saying you’re going to upgrade the existing weapon instead of just making a new one?’
At that moment, Midas looked at Tunga’s black staff in his hand with startled eyes.
‘Really?’
An unexpected boon.
‘Oh my God, are you really upgrading this?’
NPC Asara spoke to Midas, who was surprised by the good news.
“Thank you for fighting for peace in Wood Village.”
With those words, NPC Asara handed Midas what she was holding.
[Master Skill Book]
Midas was not happy when he saw the reward for this quest.
Rather, he looked at the master skill book he received from NPC Asara with more tension than ever.
‘Is this going to go smoothly?’
don’t be shy
How to become anxious if you are too lucky.
That was how Midas felt right now.
“Sorry for not being helpful.”
At NPC Asara’s words, Midas nodded lightly and followed her out of the underground labyrinth entrance.
Immediately, a pillar of light greeted Midas.
In front of the pillar of light that showed where Zuga was, Midas thought with a more worried expression than ever before.
‘I think I’m going to eat something big with this sooner or later.’
3.
The sudden end of the live broadcast of BJ Grand Mage.
The most urgent thing in that situation was the Rising Star Channel.
Because it was their role to clean up the live broadcast.
“Hand it over to the video file editing team!”
“Prepare your feedback!”
“Quickly organize viewer statistics!”
“I have to work overtime, so order chicken in advance!”
Amid such busyness, Park Young-joon was quiet.
I just tapped my head with my fingers.
Of course, his head was calculating more busily than anyone else’s.
‘I requested an elf’s robe.’
The beginning of the calculation is that the item BJ Grand Mage requested from Azmo was an elf robe.
‘Elf’s robes are not rarer than the nameless Archmage’s armor… … ‘
The value of the elf’s robe itself was no better than the armor of an unknown great mage.
If you go a little further, the value itself is lower than the elf’s boots that BJ Grand Mage had previously received.
Blink magic is a very attractive magic, but the magic itself was a legendary grade magic that can be learned at level 180, and skill cards were not available for sale.
‘It’s a special thing for Azmo.’
But it was definitely different for Azmo.
It meant only one thing to pick up and ask for something like that.
‘It’s a sign that you asked for something like that in front of everyone. I want to have a closer business relationship with Azmo rather than a financial one.’
I will value close relationships more than values!
Of course, Park Young-joon knew.
‘…. That’s what I showed everyone.’
The purpose of BJ Archmage is not to genuinely want to have a close relationship with Azmo, but to show others the will to be close with him.
To put it simply, it was a cause of jealousy.
In that situation, what Park Young-joon had to do was simple.
‘I need a competitor to race with Blue Bull.’
As always, at least two must compete for one to raise the ransom.
The timing was good.
“Hey, Blue Bull is no joke. The moment the commercial comes out after the live, the 3% goes up.”
“The articles are pouring, pouring.”
“Isn’t there an article about Blue Bull giving the trident to BJ Archmage? Is this from our side?”
“Isn’t it supposed to be a press release from Blue Bull?”
Blue Bull benefited greatly from this incident.
In other words, the deal between BJ Grand Mage and Blue Bull was over.
‘It’s a new edition if you receive the goods.’
The moment he received the promised goods, BJ Grand Mage became free to trade with anyone else.
“Azmo sent an item! It’s an elf’s robe!”
And now, a subordinate informed him that BJ Grand Mage had become free, and as soon as he heard that, Park Young-jun immediately took his smartphone and entered the phone book and searched for a single word.
‘There’s nothing like an ex-lover to induce competition.’
The word gamma constraint.
