Chapter 215. < Episode 69. Missing Link (2). >
3.
A wooden hut perched on a large stage tree.
The sight of a stingray landing in front of the cabin made this place look like a vast sea rather than a forest.
However, his feelings for him did not last long.
Dreuk!
The owner of the house appeared as soon as the guest arrived.
“Here you are.”
The door of the cabin opened and the landlord wearing a robe appeared with a hoarse voice.
The landlord who appeared like that was clearly a ringed monkey.
But the feeling it gave off was completely different from that of the ringed monkey.
First of all, the clothes were different. The robe made of red cloth that looked like silk looked unusual even to an outsider.
The face above the robe was the same. Unlike ordinary ringed monkeys who only have one or two piercings, not only the ears, nose and lips, but also ring piercings were pierced all over the face, and crucially, the entire face was full of tattoos.
“They say no.”
NPC Hmmm.
He immediately introduced himself and held out his hand toward Midas next to NPC Hitu.
Each of the bony fingers of the hand so stretched out had two or three rings on it.
To be honest, it wasn’t a hand I was willing to hold.
Isn’t the ringed monkey the monster from the base right now?
That alone is repulsive, but the whole face is full of bizarre tattoos and piercings.
Do you take the hand that such an existence extends?
It’s normal to reflexively step backwards without even realizing it, let alone catch it.
snap!
However, Midas really took the hand of the NPC Huma, who had been offered it, without a second’s hesitation.
“My name is Midas!”
Then, he showed a sign full of joy than when he met any other NPC.
It was never smoke.
“It is really nice to meet you.”
Sincerity.
It was the sincerity that came from the depths of my heart.
‘Ugh, if I had to fight this monster, I should just give up.’
Just the fact that you don’t have to fight already makes the NPC look like an angel sent from heaven to Midas’ eyes.
Moreover, Midas could see clearly.
‘Tem is no joke. Aren’t robes legendary?’
Not only the level of the NPC Hma, but also the robe the NPC Hma has is an unusual item.
[A new quest has been created in the Main Scenario Quest section.]
A notification and a quest window appeared in the ears of Midas who was so sincerely grateful.
[The Shaman of the Ringed Monkeys]
– Quest Level: Main scenario
– Quest Level: Level 170 or higher
– Quest Content: Meet Huma, the Shaman of the Ringed Monkeys, listen to his story and listen to his request.
– Quest Reward: None.
!After completing the quest, you can proceed with the ‘Curse Eater Necklace’. Seeing it, Midas drew a scenario in his head.
‘I’m going to start with the necklace upgrade, right? I’m sure you’re not saying I’m going to catch the boss monster right away, right?’
number of cases.
While Midas was thinking about it, NPC Hitu threw a word at NPC Huma.
“Hmm, you are right. There seems to be a priest of a lost god among the ringed monkeys.”
At those words, NPC Huma nodded lightly.
“Is the nameless god resurrected?”
To the ensuing question, NPC Hma shook her head.
“Gods are not beings who die and resurrect so easily. He must have made something to replace God.”
“What is that?”
“If I had to put it into words…. altar. Yes, you could call it an altar.”
“altar? Then finding and destroying that altar will be the priority.”
“It won’t be easy. If it was to be discovered so easily, I would have discovered and destroyed it long ago. Above all, if it is an altar containing the power of a nameless god, no one will be able to approach it.”
At that moment, Midas, who sensed it, stopped worrying.
‘Does this look like the right time for me to step out?’
that now is the time to step out.
“I think I can find it.”
Along with the words, Midas took out his necklace and showed it to me.
And kindly explained.
“This necklace has the ability to find the power of a lost god. The closer you get to the power of a lost god, the more it reacts like a compass. However, it seems that the necklace is not responding to some force in this place.”
very kindly.
“If you make the power of this necklace more powerful, you will be able to find it. ah! Come to think of it, I felt the power of a nameless god in the blood collected from the ringed monkey. I think you can use this blood.”
He even took out the potion of Hitu that he had received.
‘Let’s go quickly.’
As if there was no need to be bothered with this and that conversation, he even explained what NPCs should have done.
NPC Huma immediately responded to Midas’ efforts.
“Then it will be possible.”
[The quest has been completed.]
A notification that follows.
The notification made Midas nervous.
‘please.’
Now, the moment when the fate of Midas is at stake in the next quest.
“However, this alone is not enough. We must collect more blood and bring it back.”
Midas was not disappointed by the words of the NPC Huma.
still waited
“Is that possible?”
[The new quest has been updated in the main scenario quest list.]
A new quest window appeared in front of Midas.
[Necklace that eats curses]
– Quest Grade: Main scenario
– Quest Level: Level 170 or higher
– Quest Content: Catch 16 Ringed Ringed Monkeys, collect their blood, and bring it to NPC Huma.
– Quest Reward: A necklace that eats curses
! Quest Reward: Master Skill Book (Legendary)
! Upon completion of the quest, you can proceed with the ‘Altar’
.
“Yes you can!”
Be confident and sincere.
At that cry, the NPC Huma nodded.
“I’m glad.”
In the meantime, Midas examined the contents of the quest once more.
‘It’s not easy, but there’s nothing I can’t do.’
Hunting 16 ringed monkeys won’t be easy.
However, it was a level of difficulty that was enough for Midas who had already played it.
‘Let’s try it. No, let’s use this opportunity to level up and adjust our fighting style properly. Yes, you have to overcome trials to grow!’
After making that promise, Midas raised his head.
‘huh?’
At that moment, Midas tilted his head.
‘Why do question marks remain?’
That there is still a question mark over NPC Hma’s head.
Midas spoke cautiously of that fact.
“Hey, do you have anything else to say to me?”
To that question, NPC Huma said.
“Would you like to make a deal?”
“A deal?”
“Give me what I want, and I’ll let you learn the magic you want.”
“yes?”
4.
[Huma’s Proposal]
– Quest Rank: Legendary
– Quest Level: Below level 199
– Quest Details: Let’s make a deal with Huma.
– Quest Reward: You can acquire any skill you want among skills below level 199.
After checking the quest information, Midas turned his head and looked at the NPC Huma.
Then, naturally, his conversation came to mind.
NPC Huma said.
He said that if you give him what he wants, he will give you the magic you want.
‘Patou series.’
And what he wanted was none other than the Pato series.
To put it simply, in exchange for a weapon from the Pato series, it was to learn one of the magics below level 199 that a master mage could acquire.
‘It’s expensive, but…’
Of course, the Pato series was not a cheap weapon.
Excluding Pato’s dagger, which is considered the best among them, quite a few weapons were traded for over one hundred million won.
‘This is a surplus business.’
However, among the magic that the Grand Mage job could acquire, there were some that had more value than that.
If only the few types of Legendary Magic that Midas had acquired right now, wouldn’t their value exceed common sense?
‘No, not enough left.’
Of course, what Midas was thinking about was not that kind of money.
It’s hard for Midas to say such a thing, but honestly what money can buy is something that can be solved with money.
Rather, in Midas’ view, this was an unconventional opportunity.
‘wait!’
A chance to learn magic where skill cards don’t exist.
‘With this, might it be possible to learn the spirit warrior magic?
The representative skill was the spirit warrior.
The spirit warrior magic itself was not an unusual skill.
It was a skill that could be used by elemental magicians at level 50. It was a skill that changed a low-level spirit into a spirit warrior.
The problem was that there was no skill card for the spirit warrior magic.
In the case of spirit sorcerers, they could acquire the spirit warrior skill through quests, but the great mage could not receive the quest.
Moreover, the basic condition for acquiring all these skills, from the intermediate spirit summoning spirit knight to the advanced spirit spirit king, which elemental magicians learn step by step, was to acquire the spirit warrior skill.
For this reason, spiritism was a field that the great mage could not properly utilize.
‘Are you sure. Azmo is here.’
That was until Azmo learned the Elemental Warrior skill.
‘Thinking about it, I took out the Spirit Warrior when I entered the pioneer land.’
At the time of reaching the 200th level of entering the pioneer land, Azmo suddenly surprised the world by using elemental warrior magic.
It was not just surprising, it was a very shocking event.
‘The evaluation of Azmo, who was going down at that time, changed 180 degrees.’
In fact, the evaluation of Azmo ahead of the Azmo Pioneer Land at that time was not so good.
To be precise, the evaluation that the limit was reached prevailed.
No matter how much money you invest in a game, there is a limit.
Not to mention, at the time, Azmo didn’t have a divine beast or a way to upgrade the guardian.
For that reason, Azmo was not a pure solo player at the time, but a virtual guild play with the support of a support team he created.
Because of this, I expected that I would eventually give up the style in the land of pioneers where I now have to fight with competitors.
At that time, Azmo took out the spirit warrior skill and turned the atmosphere around.
‘Even after that, Azmo became the reason to remain as Azmo.’
Of course, Azmo, who secured the Missing Link of Elemental Warrior, was able to become the strongest wizard with powerful firepower while immediately stepping on the elemental magician tech tree.
Of course, at this moment, Midas was not worried either.
To be honest, I didn’t see any other magic.
‘Once you squeeze the money you have somehow, you can get the Pato series. After that…. .’
What you see next.
The moment he recalled the scene after acquiring the Spirit Warrior skill, Midas’ face didn’t even look happy.
‘do.’
Now is not the time to express emotions, it’s time to act!
There are only such feelings.
Naturally, Midas did not hesitate.
“Whoa!”
Midas exhaled a short breath and said to Lucky and Gold Jackpot, who were staring at him.
“Wait a little bit, Master will bring you something good!”

“What’s wrong with Hyunwoo hyung’s expression?”
Jung Hyeon-woo did not answer Lee Hyuk-joo’s question.
I just sit there blankly on the sofa.
In that state, Jung Hyeon-woo turned his head with difficulty and looked at the smartphone in his hand, and soon it drooped.
At that moment, the hand holding Jung Hyun-woo’s smartphone trembled.
Lee Hyuk-ju, who saw this, thought.
‘Something bad must have happened.’
There is something very bad about Jung Hyeon-woo.
‘Let’s avoid getting entangled for nothing.’
So, let’s not provoke it any more.
“Ah, shall we do some cleaning?”
That’s how Lee Hyeok-ju did something he wouldn’t normally do and secretly distanced himself from Jeong Hyeon-woo.
Of course, Jung Hyeon-woo did not see Lee Hyuk-joo like that.
couldn’t be seen
‘Damn, there’s no sale!’
Because I didn’t see a single Pato series for sale in G-Bay.
It was literally.
I was determined and tried to buy it, but not a single listing was listed on G-Bay.
Of course, it was originally a rare sale, but even so, about four or five were always on sale.
‘why not?’
But, did you really think that the sale would disappear at this moment?
From Jung Hyeon-woo’s point of view, it was crazy.
‘Damn, I don’t know when the sale might come up… … .’
If you’re lucky, the listing might come up in 10 minutes, but if you’re not lucky, you might just blow it up for three or three days.
‘I can’t give Patou’s dagger.’
Doesn’t that mean you can’t trade Pato’s dagger?
‘I’m going crazy, why?’
From Jung Hyun-woo’s point of view, it’s just crazy and crazy.
‘wait.’
There was only one way.
‘Should I ask the Rising Star Channel?’
Looking at the Rising Star Channel’s rescue of items so far, it was clear that there must have been a personal trading route with the giant guilds.
With the help of such a Rising Star channel, it shouldn’t be difficult to obtain the Pato series.
‘It’s nothing to worry about. This one is awesome. The Rising Star Channel will also fully cooperate.’
At that point, blood began to circulate on Jung Hyeon-woo’s face.
‘Yes, it’s face-to-face, but that’s not important right now.’
Then, he picked up his smartphone and wrote an email.
‘Let’s be clear. I need to learn the spirit warrior magic, but I need a Pato series weapon
. ‘
