Chapter 191. < Episode 61. Unlimit (2). >
5.
It’s been 9 days since the disassembly quest.
“You’re here at last. Why did it take so long?”
Instead of answering NPC Arbia’s question, Midas took out a frost flower from his inventory.
“I managed to save you.”
The NPC Arvia, who confirmed the frost flower, nodded and handed over the frost flower.
After that, Midas took it out again.
one two and three.
“Did you save a lot?”
NPC Arvia, who saw four frost flowers in total, made a surprised expression.
How can you get four songs that are hard to find?
On the other hand, Midas’ expression was not good.
‘I never thought the first kick would be a kick.’
Isn’t that also the Midas who found two frost flowers on the first day?
Of course, I had no doubt that I would find more than one song a day.
‘No matter how much it is, does it make sense that you haven’t found anything in the last three days? I just wiped out the foggy forest, how come one doesn’t come out?’
Worst of all was that after finding the 4th, I hadn’t found a single one for 3 days.
Out of 10 golden days, 3 days were meaninglessly blown away.
Of course, this did not mean that everything was organized.
Because you can’t do anything with this material alone.
“What should I do now?”
“I have to melt the frost flower somehow. It’s not difficult. I’ll do it right away.”
With those words, the NPC Arbia put the frost flower in her hand into a wooden barrel.
Then, like a bartender taking a cocktail order, he started shaking the barrel a few times.
Fire!
Then, surprisingly, the wooden barrel spewed out flames.
As NPC Arbia said, it is understandable that it melts frost flowers.
After shaking the barrel a few more times, NPC Arbia took out a small bottle the size of a finger from her pocket and poured the melted frost flowers into it.
“ruler.
Then, he handed the bottle to Midas.
[Essence of Frost Flower]
– Material Grade: Legendary
– Material Effect: Melt the Frost Flower, leaving only the essence. It has the property of absorbing mana. Used to disassemble items.
– Bound when acquired (cannot be traded)
– Valid time: 24 hours
Midas’ expression crumpled when he checked the information window that appeared at that moment.
‘Validity time?’
Of course, it was the effective time that made his expression wrinkled.
‘No valid time?’
The effective time of 24 hours just means that you decide on the item to be dismantled within today and execute it.
It was impossible to plan the future, which was one of Midas’ plans.
‘This trash game is real!’
Out of the 10 days he barely earned, he invested 9 days and the cost of his efforts was halved.
Midas, who was dissatisfied with the fact, was immediately informed about the game God Wars.
“Can you make the rest? It would be better to make it in advance. Frost flowers melt quickly.”
“yes? what now… … .
“It is literally. In the first place, frost flowers are flowers that only bloom in the foggy forest. The special aura of that place is the frost flower. But what if you take it out? Did you see the frost remaining where the sun rose?”
This game is called Midas It’s a much more fucking game than you think!
“Wait a minute!”
‘really?’
Midas was surprised by this fact and checked the frost flower he had taken out.
[Frost Flower]
– Material Grade: Legendary
– Material Effect: A flower found only in special places. It has the property of absorbing mana.
– Cannot be traded when harvested
– Validity: 24 hours
Midas couldn’t even vomit his anger at the new content that hadn’t been seen.
‘Is it that sucking honey is not tolerated?’
In fact, when you think about it, it was a reasonable move.
If you can make a lot of frost flower essence here and use it whenever you want, you can disassemble the bound items you acquired during the main scenario quest to extract their abilities.
Considering the game difficulty that God Wars has presented to players so far, it was strange to tolerate passages that could be easily reached like that.
“Now then, shall we make the rest? To be honest, I didn’t expect to bring so many, but since I did, I have to do it.”
No, in the first place, it was not easy to even find a frost flower in this disassembly quest.
Most players would spend days just discovering one, and would never have imagined discovering more after that.
In particular, it was clear that the moment he knew that the frost flower had an expiration date, he wouldn’t bother to get it.
Because it was Midas, we were able to secure as many as four songs.
‘It’s fortunate that I can do even four.’
From that point of view, it’s something to be grateful for not blocking the production of four.
“First, let’s check if it’s really possible.”
Of course, it was more urgent to confirm the effect than to manufacture the essence of the frost flower right away.
“Now then, try it.”
At those words, NPC Alvia nodded, and Midas, who confirmed that appearance, started working.
After taking out the unknown archmage’s book from the inventory, he placed the guardian’s glove on top of the book.
“Drop the essence of the frost flower onto the item.”
After that, I followed NPC Arvia’s words.
Particularly transparent water droplets hit the guardian’s glove and flowed down, touching the cover of the book.
Then a notification sounded.
[Do you want to extract the ability of the Guardian’s Gloves?]
[You can extract the ‘magic projectile speed +40%’ ability from the Guardian’s Gloves.]
Midas answered that question.
“yes.
At that answer, the book flashed, and the guardian’s gloves on top of it also began to emit light.
After that, the light came to Midas’ chest and was absorbed as it was.
[The guardian’s glove has been disassembled.]
[You have acquired a new ability.]
Midas caught his breath at the notification that followed.
‘done.’
Results as expected.
‘It’s really good.’
Although expected, it was a surprising result.
‘That’s also an increase in projectile speed!’
Even if you could just extract basic stats like intelligence or magic, it would be a huge deal, but it wasn’t that you could extract core options.
It was a system that could go beyond the limit that God Wars players thought.
Not to mention, there were still three frost flowers in Midas’ hand.
‘Let’s go in the order of the armor headband. the other one… … .’
It is only natural that the previous disappointment melts away like frost flowers and your head fills with the thought of what item to dismantle.
“Good. So now I have to repay the favor.”
“yes?”
At the words of the NPC Albia, Midas stopped worrying.
“Grace?”
In response to the ensuing questioning, NPC Alvia said with her eyes flashing sharply.
“Then did you really think that helping you so far was the result of a spirit of sacrifice that didn’t ask for anything in return?”
“Yeah…. .
At that moment, the attitude of Midas after the first meeting with NPC Arvia came to mind.
‘Considering the temperament I’ve shown so far, it’s strange to do it for free.’
Far from being free, he would look like he would be left alone even if he was told to do what he told him to do after hitting his eyebrows.
Above all, Midas had no right to refuse.
Refusing her request is the same as giving up the main scenario quest.
“Since I received too much grace, the time has come for me to repay the favor.”
NPC Alvia nodded at that answer.
“Do you know why the Spirit Cave was created?”
Then he asked a question.
At that question, Midas remembered.
‘The official settings that have been revealed so far… … .’
“Aren’t they created when the two spirit kings, the scorching spirit king and the frigid spirit king, were summoned here during the war of the gods?”
It wasn’t a setting that wasn’t particularly surprising.
“Yes, with the appearance of those two spirit kings, the boundaries of the world collapsed and a passage leading to the spirit realm was created. In addition, at the moment of the battle between the two spirit kings, part of the world was covered with steam.”
Midas reflexively responded to the explanation of NPC Alvia.
“That is the forest of fog.”
This part was officially the first setting I heard.
‘Some predictions were correct.’
Of course, the expectation that there would be such a setting based on the previous setting was already in the past.
So, even at this point, Midas was not particularly surprised.
“Okay then, question here. Why does the foggy forest still exist?”
“yes?”
“The two spirit kings are gone. If that’s the case, it’s right that the forest of fog is disappearing. However, the forest of fog still exists. Even though countless people have tried to get rid of this misty forest.”
NPC Alvia, who was talking, raised her head and looked out of the cave.
“It means that the power of the two spirit kings remains somewhere and maintains this foggy forest.”
But at this point, even Midas could not help but be surprised.
‘Could it be the Maze Dungeon?’
Given the circumstances, there was a high possibility that the dungeon referred to here was Azmo’s requested dungeon.
While Midas was drawing a picture in his head, the NPC Alvia pointed her finger at the book of an unknown archmage lying on the floor and said,
“And if you use the method in the book over there, you might be able to extract the power of the spirit kings separately.”
At those words, the picture drawn in Midas’ head was completed.
“I won’t ask you to do it for free. It’s not an ordinary task to find a fragment containing the spirit king’s power. If you do, I will give you something that will help you.”
Along with the words, the NPC Arbia pulled out a small skill card book.
‘Legendary Epic Skill Card Book!’
Upon seeing this, Midas had no further worries.
“It is to repay the favor, but it is not possible to save one’s life. Whatever it is, I will do it without fail.”
Along with the horse, Midas quickly took the Legendary Epic Skill Card Book.
“good.”
[A new quest has been created in the main scenario quest list.]
After that, a notification was heard, but it did not reach Midas’ ears.
‘Yes, if you went through that hardship, it should be worthwhile. Rather, where should I use the Legendary Epic skill?’
just happy thoughts
Of course, even when the quest window appeared in front of my eyes, the contents of the quest did not come into my eyes.
[Fragment of the Spirit King]
– Quest Grade: Main scenario
– Quest Level: 180 or lower
– Quest Content: Find the Fog Maze Dungeon and retrieve the Spirit King’s Fragment hidden there.
– Quest Reward: Fragment of the Spirit King
! Upon completion of the quest, you can proceed with ‘Arbia’s Staff’
‘Yes, enter the dungeon… … uh?’
Until I saw the hidden information that only Midas could see at the bottom of the quest.
‘No wait.’
The moment he saw it, Midas focused on the quest window once more.
‘Arbia’s staff?’
After confirming the contents again, Midas’ eyes naturally turned to the staff held in his bare hand.
‘weapon?’
The moment when the appearance of a new weapon is predicted.
‘This wand is also bound, so if there is a replacement… … .’
At that moment, an idea popped into Midas’ head.
‘I must finish the quest before the frost flower melts.’
that there is no time.
‘I’m going to attack tomorrow.’
Midas, who had reached that fact, let out a long sigh.
6.
Jung Hyeon-woo was thinking of disassembling the items step by step after collecting the frost flowers.
In other words, I didn’t intend to dismantle all the items at once.
At first, the intention was to disassemble only the Guardian’s gloves.
‘If you dismantle the Guardian’s gloves and wear flame gloves instead, it is definitely possible to improve your specs.’
The reason is that you need a replacement item.
‘I never thought there would be a time limit.’
However, such a plan collapsed as soon as the effective time came.
24 hours Frost Blossom Essence of Frost Blossom 24 hours.
In a total of 48 hours, Jung Hyeon-woo had to disassemble the item as well as find a replacement.
‘The armor and headband… … .’
Of course, the guardian’s armor and the guardian’s headband also needed to be replaced after disassembly.
There are many alternative items.
The item Jung Hyun-woo was currently searching for through G-Bay was like that.
[Flaming Hat]
A burning hat, a level 155 Legendary item!
It was an item that was more than enough to replace the guardian’s headband.
“Wow, the burning hat is up for sale. Hyunwoo hyung! A burning listing is up on G-Bay! It looks like this is on sale in a month!
Even very fortunately, it was a situation where the sale appeared recently.
There is only one problem!
“Look at the price. The real temp is the house price.”
that the price is very expensive.
“I even raised it 20 percent higher than the average market price.”
That there was even a bubble in it.
“Anyway, BJ Grand Mage is the problem. Because of BJ Archmage, all Legendary items of that level have risen by more than 20%, right? Well, it might be the price of gum for BJ the great mage.”
Even at the fact that the culprit was himself, Jung Hyun-woo had no choice but to let out a deep sigh.
‘I spend half of the money I’ve saved so far to buy one.’
Of course, the answer was fixed.
It would be foolish not to use this item in this situation.
So I had no choice but to worry.
‘Uh.’
I had never bought anything so expensive in my life.
There is no way you can easily change your hands.
No, honestly, it was something that went beyond the limits Jung Hyun-woo had accumulated throughout his life.
Moreover, in this case the situation was different.
“Well, I’ll pray for BJ Grand Mage to buy it and put it at twice the market price.”
As Lee Hyuk-joo said, the current market price of items exclusively for wizards at BJ’s level is over 20% bubbled.
In other words, when you buy an item and want to resell it, you lose as much as the bubble price.
If you consider the commissions of the purchase and sale process, it is just like flying over a billion dollars into the air.
“Should I buy a burning hat and double it? What do you think Hyunwoo hyung?”
In response to Lee Hyuk-joo’s question that flew in from such troubles, Jeong Hyeon-woo kept his mouth shut instead of answering.
A voice sounded in Jung Hyun-woo’s ears.
“If BJ Grand Mage really buys a flaming hat, even if it’s doubled…. uh? brother! brother! The burning hat is sold!”
It was the moment when Jung Hyun-woo surpassed his limits.
“Did the real BJ Grand Mage buy it? Wait, so I’m shopping right now… … What should I buy next? Do you want to buy armor? Maybe snow armor? Come to think of it, I forgot about the eye armor, didn’t it go up for sale the day before yesterday? 30% higher than market price… … uh? disappeared? what?”
Not once, but twice.
‘My money… … .’
In fact, Lee Hyuk-joo’s voice as he approached the resting room was heard in the ears of Jung Hyeon-woo, who was drooping on the sofa, showing a more powerless appearance than ever before.
“Great case! Some asshole bastard bought a flaming hat and eye armor at the market price!”
