Chapter 298. < Episode 94. Royal Elixir (1). >
1.
New things always make people feel fresh.
It was the same with the appearance of a new star.
[The birth of a new star named Munduk of the Daecheop Guild!]
The media also paid keen attention to the appearance of a new star named Munduk.
“Wasn’t it a joke to see Munduk fighting?”
Even more, the media is noisy, but there is no way the capsule room will be quiet.
“I don’t know why such a talented person has come to fame now.”
“Anyway, it’s great.”
It was only natural for the people gathered in the break room to talk nonstop about Munduk.
“Two million dollars.”
“I got hit by lightning overnight.”
Of course, what the capsule room players were most interested in was the huge prize money Munduk received.
“I envy you, I envy you. I want to get hit by that kind of money, too.”
“Oh my stomach hurts. Why don’t I get that chance?”
“I’d just skip it if it was really easy, but this one really hurts my stomach.”
There is nothing better than money for gossip in this world, let alone the prize money this time was so large that even those who were not particularly interested in God Wars would feel sick to their stomach.
“Look at that, didn’t Hyeonu just get sick?”
It was for this reason that the guests of the capsule room did not particularly question the appearance of Jung Hyeon-woo lying on the sofa outside the break room.
It wasn’t wrong.
‘Oh, I feel bitter.’
One of the reasons Jung Hyeon-woo is holding on to the bitterness now is because of the prize money that Moon-deok received.
In other words, it wasn’t just because of that that he was bedridden.
It was a lot of money, but it wasn’t so much money that Jung Hyeon-woo now regrets his life.
“Anyway, BJ Grand Mage is also amazing. It’s just an event, but this kind of aftermath… … .
“From now on, whenever the BJ Grand Mage event is held, everyone will fight to live or die. Money is money, but isn’t it an opportunity to become a star player right away?”
“The Rising Star Channel is also well named. It really has become a broadcast that makes stars.”
It was the anticipation of what was being mentioned right now that really made Jung Hyun-woo’s stomach sore.
This event was just an impulsive event.
None of them were properly planned, just an accidental event.
“Are you going to do it again soon?”
“Anyway, just looking at it, you can see that BJ Grand Mage is offering to nurture players who haven’t been popular for an event, right?”
But now, the public had no doubts that the event would carry great significance and that it would proceed like a regular event.
“To put it bluntly, something like 2 million dollars to BJ Grand Mage isn’t even money.”
“I heard rumors that the prize money was not given by Azmo, but by BJ Grand Mage. He said he sold the Azmo name and gave it to him because he felt less comfortable when he gave it under his name.”
“okay? Well, maybe.”
Of course, there was no doubt that the prize money from such an event would be a huge amount of course.
‘Going crazy.’
It was that part that really bothered Jung Hyun-woo.
Expectations have grown like this, but I can’t help but live up to them.
‘What should I explain to the boss?’
Not only Jung Hyeon-woo, but also the rising star channel had to suffer.
In a situation like this, how can you say that it was just a one-off event and there are no plans to do it in the future?
In summary, because of what Jeong Hyeon-woo, an employee, had done, the president was left with an unexpected and heavy worry.
Ugh…….
To the point of moaning.
“brother.
Lee Hyeok-joo came out of the break room and started talking to Jung Hyeon-woo, who was suffering so much.
“Don’t be too sick to your stomach. Isn’t that what the world is all about? How can I live if my stomach hurts every single thing like this?”
At Lee Hyuk-joo’s encouragement, Jeong Hyeon-woo finished lying down instead of answering and sat upright.
“And people’s work is not all what you want, right?”
not exactly wrong.
‘Yes, Hyeok-ju is right.’
At those words, Jeong Hyeon-woo nodded lightly instead of refuting.
“Isn’t it like that just by looking at BJ Grand Mage? That gentleman who seems to have it all doesn’t have a girlfriend, right? What do you do when you have a lot of money and are good at games? There is no one around.”
‘huh?’
However, at Lee Hyuk-joo’s words, Jung Hyun-woo tilted his head.
‘This bastard?’
Lee Hyuk-ju, who had no way of knowing about Jung Hyeon-woo’s change, even spat out the words.
“And games have to come out, right? I’ll set it up right away, so work hard.”
At Lee Hyuk-joo’s encouragement, Jeong Hyeon-woo tried to refute, but soon shut up.
There wasn’t a single word that was wrong in Lee Hyuk-joo’s words.
In the end, Jung Hyun-woo expressed his gratitude instead of refutation.
…….Yes, thank you very much for your encouragement.
With that expression, Jung Hyeon-woo made up his mind.
‘I somehow escape solo.’
2.
[You have entered the Desert King’s Altar.]
Midas raised his head at the notification he heard as soon as he logged in. What greeted him was the Desert King’s Altar, which only those who had hunted the Desert King could enter.
The shape of the altar was a small pyramid.
About 15 meters high.
The difference from the pyramid was that three huge stone slabs were placed around the altar.
On each of these three tablets were figures with the heads of beasts, lions, wolves, birds, and human bodies.
Midas, who was looking at the altar, turned his head and looked around.
Of course, there were no other players around Midas.
Because that was the only thing that caught the King of the Desert.
king!
“Master, this is a really nice altar. In the future, if there are people who follow the master’s majesty, such altars will be built all over the world.”
What we see is Lucky wagging his tail vigorously, and Gold with a body that suits this altar more than anyone else.
“Your words are correct.”
couw!
And now, there was only the image of Silver with the image of a giant lion in the form of a desert king and Jackpot sitting proudly on top of that silver head.
Seeing that, Midas let out a short breath.
“Whoa.”
‘Let’s forget about the prize money. Even if it’s not that, you earn enough and eat well, don’t you?’
Along with the sound of breathing, Midas, who also vomited up something twisted in his belly, immediately opened the inventory and checked an item in it.
[Treasure of an unknown person]
‘Yes.’
Seeing this, Midas had anticipation in his heart.
‘I just need to pick one jackpot here.’
Isn’t it an item obtained by killing the fallen King of the Desert?
‘If I do well, the sword the King of the Desert has might come out.’
Circumstantially, the possibility that the black sword used by the King of the Desert would come out was by no means low.
‘It’s great when it comes out.’
And if that item really came out, the stomachache caused by the Munduk case would disappear like snow.
[Do you want to open the unknown person’s treasure?]
“Yes.
As soon as the answer filled with such anticipation came out, a new item appeared instead of the box that occupied the inventory space.
‘huh?’
And when he checked the item, Midas’ expression hardened.
[Relic of a Nameless God]
– Grade: Legendary Epic
– An artifact containing the power of a nameless god.
The description of the item is plain and simple.
‘what? Is this all? I went through such hardships, but only items that don’t wear and don’t raise stats pop out? Are you kidding me?’
Midas felt bewildered beyond anger at the explanation, which seemed to have no room for usefulness anywhere.
‘No.’
However, Midas soon calmed himself down.
‘No matter how much God Wars is a garbage game, there’s no way it could end here with just one quest item like this, right? The difficulty of this quest was so difficult that the inhabitants of Hell cried.’
I hope it can’t end like this here.
‘It’s definitely a weapon or armor material. The rating is also Legendary Epic, right? It can’t be an ordinary thing.’
It will probably be used to craft some powerful item.
Midas reads himself over and over again for mental health.
coo-ooh!
‘huh?’
At that moment, Jackpot’s tearing cries penetrated Midas’ ears.
At the same time, light emanated from Midas’ chest.
[???’s egg absorbs the power of the nameless god.]
The black light from the inventory was sucked into Midas’s chest along with an audible notification.
After about 10 seconds passed, the light finally disappeared and two items of information appeared in front of Midas’ eyes.
[???’s Egg]
!Dragon Egg
!For hatching, ‘Power of the Nameless God’ is required
!Hatchability: 52%
[Relic of the Nameless God]
– Grade: Legendary Epic
– Relic containing the power of the Nameless God am.
Seeing the information on the two items that had been changed, Midas immediately laughed.
“haha.
Briefly.
“Lucky.”
king?
Behind that short laugh, he looked at Lucky and said.
“This game is really a God game.”
Midas, who had closed the inventory he had been spitting out, shouted again with anger.
“It’s such a great game that I’m about to curse! I curse! fuck!”
In the end, the profanity that comes out.
In fact, it wasn’t very unprofitable.
After all, isn’t the dragon’s egg hatching rate soaring that it’s now well over half of 52 percent?
It’s just that the fact doesn’t give Midas any consolation.
‘Come on, let’s see how good the game is.’
That fact now goes beyond anger to the point where even miasma arises.
Cuckoo!
The sound of the desert king’s altar and pyramid collapsing was heard in Midas’ ears.
king!
“Master, it is dangerous!”
A sight that would normally have been chilling.
However, Midas, who was already filled with anger, widened his eyes instead of being shaken by the scene.
‘I’d rather have a strong monster come out. Grab it and eat it.’
A notification sounded in Midas’ ears telling him to open his eyes like that.
[The legacy of the royal family has been protected from the Desert King.]
[The quest has been completed.]
[The level has risen.]
Along with such notifications, a new being appeared within the collapsed altar of the Desert King.
A being with the head of a falcon and the body of a stout adult man.
It was a being in the stone slabs built around the altar.
“He is the guardian of the legacy that protects the legacy of the royal family.”
As soon as the Guardian of Heritage appeared, after introducing himself, he immediately approached Midas and bowed his head.
“I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the person who protected the legacy of the royal family from traitors. If it weren’t for your help, the royal family’s legacy would have been passed on to a traitor.”
and the following explanation.
However, there was no way that the explanation would be conveyed properly to Midas, whose stomach was twisted.
‘Proceed quickly.’
I just want to flip the game, but I just put up with it because it’s such an important quest.
“I’m sorry, but I have a request from my benefactor.”
In front of Midas, the Guardian of the Heritage soon got down on one knee and said,
“It is believed that it is impossible to protect the legacy of the royal family any longer once the barrier has been broken.”
At those words, Midas’ expression turned sour.
‘This is another courier service.’
At first glance, the content of the quest seems like it would be hard work, but there would be no profit left.
“So I beg your benefactor to move the royal family’s inheritance to a safe place.”
“Ah yes.”
To the unexpected quest, Midas gave an answer that was more stern than ever.
[A new quest has been created in the Main Scenario Quest section.]
Then, a quest window appeared along with a notification that was heard.
[The Elixir of the Royal Family]
– Quest Level: Main scenario
– Quest Level: 259 or lower.
– Quest Content: Give the Elixir of the Royal Family, the legacy of the royal family, to the descendant of the royal family in the last oasis.
– Quest Reward: Unknown
! Quest Reward: Elixir of the Royal Family
! Upon completion of the quest, you can proceed to ‘Ogre Realm’
‘Huh?’
Seeing the contents, Midas tilted his head.
‘Reward?’
The royal family’s legacy is the royal family’s elixir, but the quest reward is the royal family’s elixir?
That means that the legacy of the royal family is the reward!
‘uh?’
There was no more sullenness on Midas’ face after seeing that fact.
“Here is the royal legacy.”
To Midas, the guardian of the heritage handed over a small box made of stones the size of a ring box.
[Royal Family Legacy]
– Grade: Legendary Epic.
– It is a royal legacy. The royal family’s elixir is contained inside. Only descendants of the royal family can open it.
All you see is a box.
However, Midas’ eyes saw the real object contained in the box.
[Elixir of the royal family]
– Grade: Legendary Epic
– Available level: below level 259
– Effect: Elixir containing the mysterious power of the royal family. Turns the drinker into a strong guardian.
The moment he checked the effect of the item that makes him a strong guardian, Midas’ eyes turned to the jackpot.
couw!
Jackpot, who was now arranging his wings with his beak on top of Lucky’s head, spat out a sullen sound as if asking what he was looking at in the owner’s gaze.
Confirming that, Midas now looked at the guardian of the heritage in front.
A strong guardian with the head of a falcon and the body of a human!
‘Could it be true?’
At that moment, Midas, who confirmed the picture drawn in his head, immediately got down on one knee and made eye contact with the guardian of the heritage and shouted.
“I will absolutely risk my life to complete this holy mission of protecting the legacy of the Midas royal family!”
‘As expected, the main scenario quest is awesome!’
3.
“The main scenario quest is awesome.”
Merlin, who put down the tablet PC in his hand, finally revealed his face, a laugh hanging over his lips.
“Aside from the quest difficulty, if you exceed the quest level in the middle of a quest, start again from the beginning?”
As he spoke, Merlin repeatedly made a puzzled expression.
It was worth it.
According to the information obtained while the Abyss Guild and the Explorers Guild were attacking the main scenario quest, the main scenario quest was impossible to proceed when the quest level exceeded the limit.
Because there was no such thing as a way to lower the level in God Wars.
“I never thought I would design a quest on the premise of raising a new one. Very nasty.”
That means you have no choice but to create a new character.
It was no wonder that Merlin, who had experienced all sorts of nonsense in the game God Wars, had a look of absurdity.
“There is nothing strange about Kim Min-soo’s personality. Not to mention, God Wars is not a game made to sell.”
However, Emma’s expression when faced with that absurd fact was unexpectedly calm.
“Considering the meaning he gave to the game, this is rather a practical joke.”
No, beyond the calm level, the reaction seemed to be natural.
“If this is at the level of a mischievous prank, you get goosebumps at how much it will be if you really prank it properly.”
Merlin stuck out his tongue again in response.
The smile on Merlin’s lips began to change gradually.
“Thanks to you, the calculation of the situation has become easier.”
Instead of a blank laugh, a faint smile appeared.
“Isn’t it enough to just drop the BJ Archmage into the abyss once?”
That would be the case, and this nonsensical main scenario quest method was also valid for BJ Archmage.
“Because if you fall down just once, you’ll be right behind us.”
It means that BJ Grand Mage can also be destroyed overnight.
“That is not enough.”
Of course, Emma was not going to be satisfied with that fact.
“Not enough?”
“If you fail a quest, you start over at level 1. It’s really annoying, but it’s not impossible. Currently, only a small number of main scenario quests are being tackled.”
She was ready for more.
“But what if the information about the main scenario quest is made public? How long will it take for the failed BJ master mage to start over?”
To make it impossible to start again the moment you fall.
“Wait a minute, isn’t it dangerous for us too?”
No matter how much he is a BJ great mage, he cannot attack the main scenario quest while mercilessly beating ordinary players.
The reason Emma revealed the main scenario quest to the public was to make normal players an obstacle.
Of course, that obstacle had to be valid for the Abyss Guild as well.
“We should keep that in mind even when we fail. If we solve information like that…. .
“Are you thinking of defeating BJ Archmage with the failure in mind?”
“Yeah…. .
Still, there was one reason why Emma took this risk.
“If you are going to face BJ Grand Mage, you have to be prepared to stand on the edge and fight.”
There is no way that a clumsy resolution or tricks will work against the BJ Archmage.
Merlin couldn’t refute Emma’s opinion.
“So how?”
“I’m thinking of blowing it up through the Explorers’ Guild.”
“The Explorers Guild?”
“Exploding information and managing NPCs and fields instead is what the Explorers Guild does best, right?”
After Emma’s explanation, Merlin asked the last question.
“When?”
When will this bomb that will change the trend of God Wars explode?
Emma answered the question.
“I have to think about that from now on.”
