– Volume 15, Chapter 18
368. World Community
Crystallized power was embodied as a blue jewel in front of Mount Tai.
The jewel slowly fell onto Taesan’s hand. The jewel entered his hand with a cold touch.
[You have obtained crystallized new blood.]
“Is it new blood?”
[It’s part of my strength. How to deal with that
is completely up to you.]
Maria said leisurely.
[You can transplant it into your body and handle it. Or you can use it as a material to make a weapon. But at least for now, it must be impossible.]
Taesan looked at the crystallized new blood.
The new blood, like a blue jewel, was stable, but at the same time it contained terrifyingly strong power.
It was such a force that even the current Taesan seemed impossible to handle.
[Crystallized new blood is not available anywhere in the world. It is the only reward in the world given only to you.]
“Thank you.”
It was as Maria said. God blood was a power that no one could obtain unless they were born with that power. The emperor tried to obtain new blood in the form of a sacrifice, but it was unknown whether it would really succeed.
I gained power that I could never have obtained through normal means. That alone was worth it.
[This is both a reward and a kind of expectation. Be strong enough to handle it. Then you’ll know the value properly.]
Maria chuckled.
[This is a reward for passing my ordeal well. Do you have any questions? Ask.]
“Then, I’ll risk rudeness and ask.”
Taesan opened his inventory.
A very small flower-shaped decoration was held in Taesan’s hand. The seven petals were colorful like a rainbow.
[Maria’s gift]
[A gift given by God to a person he loves. It has no effect yet.]
“This is how to use it.”
The reward that Maria gave him when they first met him.
It was a very long time ago. It was only on the 12th floor, so it was a time when Lee Tae-yeon and Kang Jun-hyuk were weaker than now.
However, he still hadn’t been able to deal with the gift of Mary he had obtained at that time
. Every time I thought about it, I tried to grasp the essence or activate intensive detection, but nothing came out.
[You’re asking that. Then you should answer me.]
Maria slowly opened her mouth.
[It’s a gift that can’t be used alone. It can be used when you meet someone who has a relationship with you.]
“…Anyone who has a relationship with me.”
Everyone who had a relationship with him died. It was because he had gone back in time.
And Maria knew that too.
She said when she first met Taesan. He is said to have returned in time by using the vomit of the snake, who had made the wrong choice after being caught up in by the gods.
That’s how she spoke of a person with a kite.
Taishan’s eyes sank.
Maria smiled quietly.
[Let’s postpone that for later pleasure.]
With those words, Maria’s realm
began to move away.
[I’m waiting for you in a deeper place. Come on down.]
With a low voice, Taesan returned to the labyrinth.
‘Is he a person with a kite?’
It was a bit complicated in my head. Taesan fiddled with the flower arrangement.
* * *
A few questions arose, but one thing was for sure. It was that he had cleared the 76th floor.
[Crystallized new blood]
[The new blood itself was crystallized and stabilized. If an unqualified person tries to control it, it will run amok.]
It was an explanation that was tantamount to a warning, and Tae-san felt it too. Even though it was a reward, I couldn’t use it right away.
First of all, there was no choice but to have it, but considering the power of the new blood, it was not a reward of low value. As Maria said, it was something to think about after becoming stronger.
And the 76th floor clear rewards.
[Armor refined by deep darkness.]
[Strength + 900]
[Defense + 90
[Dark magic + 30]
[Dark magic resistance + 1]
[Armor that the being who created black magic smelted
as a hobby in his domain. It’s a piece of equipment that I created like a joke, but it contains very powerful power.]
If it was the existence that created black magic, it was the devil. It looked like a device created by the devil. Correspondingly, black magic and its resistance values were attached.
[Ankle guard made of rough gemstone.]
[Strength + 50
[Attack power + 400]
[Defense power + 500]
[One day, an unidentified gemstone fell on a planet. Numerous blacksmiths rushed to smelt the ore, but they were killed by an unknown power just by polishing the ore a few times. At the end of an immeasurable number of lives, it barely became an ankle protector.]
It was a basic clear reward that always did not disappoint.
And while defeating the emperor, the spirit level rise had been activated.
[Your spirit level has been activated. Divine power proficiency increased by 3%.]
Divine power increased by 3%. At first glance, it was a very meaningless rise. However, for Taesan, who knows the value of divine power, it was a very big rise.
The moment the divine power reached 81%, the rise itself stopped. Certainly not a few players on Earth were worshiping Mount Tai, but they didn’t move.
As soon as you reach 100%, you can get your own divinity, so the rate of increase is very slow.
It raised it by 3%. It was more valuable than acquiring any skill.
and acquired skills.
[Special activation skill: Law of Discipline]
[Consumption ??? : ???]
[Proficiency level: 1%]
[Recalls the realm of discipline and enforces its laws. I still lack the level and qualifications of the user to handle this power.]
Spirit skill. It was a similar explanation to the king of machinery. With that alone, I could tell what kind of skill it was.
This was an authority only granted to the disciple of the god of discipline.
That was what brought about the elevation of the spirit.
[It also works for transcendental beings… but it’s really hard to accept.]
Spiritual elevation brings strength regardless of whether the opponent is an immortal, an old god, or an apostle of a god.
It was a really difficult skill to understand.
It was a considerable reward. It was the same as saying that you can’t use it right away, but if you qualify, you can use some of the powers of the gods. The value contained in it was by no means small.
Perhaps because of the victory against the apostle, there was a change in the apostleization. The name was the same, but the effect of apostleization was slightly strengthened.
The reward is like this.
Then it was time to check it out. Taishan went up the floor. Hafran greeted him as if he had been waiting.
“You’re here. I’ve been waiting for you to come.”
“Is everything over?”
“okay.”
Taesan once entrusted the crystal of pure light obtained from the spirit realm to Hafran. It seemed that production on him was finished.
Hafran handed Taesan a piece of shimmering light.
“I thought about what to make, but I couldn’t think of the right one. So I set the direction for something simple but powerful.”
[Pure white powder of blessing]
[Powder of blessing. [Attack power + 200] [
Can activate
[Light of the World] once per hour.]
[Light of the World]
[Light of Light that has existed since the beginning of time. Invoke Defeats unclean beings and pushes away darkness.]
“You can use it for Carvert’s relics.”
“It’s fine.”
The pure attack power was quite high. I don’t know how much light of the world is effective, but if you think of it as a skill similar to forced amplification, it will be quite useful.
As the insane spirit was released, it was enough to restore most of the lost abilities. Taesan sprinkled the powder on the sword.
“Is that all there is to it?”
“no. I have something to ask you.”
Taesan showed the black and white ring he was wearing on his finger.
“How exactly are these rings made?”
In order for the two of them to use one on a ring, they had to have a solid knowledge of the ring. Hafran asked even though he was puzzled.
“What are you curious about?”
“The manufacturing process of the ring. Did you try to make them a pair from the start?”
“It is not.”
Hafran shook his head.
“At first, I tried to make it as one piece of equipment. However, they rebelled and resisted each other, probably because they were so powerful. I almost died because of it.”
The ingredients contained in the ring were things that Hafran could not easily control.
Hafran came to a conclusion after thinking and thinking about how to stabilize it.
“The two rings are made in the same process. As the material is different, the appearance is different, but the manufacturing process is perfectly equal. They use it
to resonate with each other to amplify and stabilize power. It is a ring made at the end.”
“Is the production process the same?”
“It is perfectly the same, without a single error. Being twins means that in the first place.”
“Yes, this is it.”
A perfectly made ring.
Then it could really be possible. It’s impossible right now, but the possibilities are ample.
“That’s enough. thank you.”
“It’s equipment you gave the materials and made because you wanted it. Of course you have to answer. Is that the end?”
“There is still one more.”
Taesan showed the crystallized divine blood to Hafran.
“Can you smelt this?”
Hafran looked at the new blood for a moment and frowned.
“You’re bringing something you couldn’t find on the 90th floor. Do you think you can do it?”
“As expected.”
Taesan did not expect much from the beginning, so he put the new blood back into his inventory.
“I am great, but I am mortal. I want you to understand that.”
Hafran grumbled. Taesan said goodbye to him and went downstairs again.
The moment I was about to head to the 77th floor, system windows suddenly appeared and covered my view.
It was all about the community. Taishan opened a community.
[Amelia Airin [Alone]: Why are you guys coming back already?]
[Lee Tae-yeon [Alone]: That’s because this side ended early.]
[Amelia Airin [Alone]: What is it? Then what happened to the Chinese side? I definitely felt something explode.]
[Kang Jun-hyeok [Alone]: Ah. is that? It’s going to be a bit long to explain this, but…]
[Oliver Kahn [Hard]: Let’s listen. I have to take a break for a while anyway
.]
A lot of people were chatting in the community.
Taesan realized. That other countries have finally finished their trials and returned to the labyrinth.
*米*
“It’s faster than I thought.”
Even if I couldn’t do it, I thought it would take half a year more. However, looking at the people talking, it seemed that all countries had finished the quest.
Lee Tae-yeon and Kang Jun-hyeok were explaining what happened in China to players from other countries.
[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: Is it over?]
[Amelia Airin [Alone]: Ah.]
[Eika Ichijou [Hard]: Yeah. long time no see. I was curious about something
because there was no news .]
[Kang Jun-hyeok [Alone]: I’m originally that kind of person. We don’t know what we’re doing either?]
[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: Because there’s no need to talk.]
Tae-san slowly explained about Jinryong. After hearing the story, Amelia was silent for a moment.
[Amelia Aerin [Alone]: …similar to me.]
[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: It’s different. After all, you descended the labyrinth with your own power.]
Even if the God of Fall assisted, it was Amelia’s own strength that broke through the labyrinth. The situation was different from Jinryong, who entrusted everything to the immortal.
[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: It just went well.] It’s been
quite a while since we talked with the community
. Kang Jun-hyeok and Lee Tae-yeon must have gone down the labyrinth considerably. The same goes for hardmode players.
I was thinking of doing a tidy up at this point.
[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: Talk to me. How are you guys going?]
Level up with skill.
