Chapter 115
Blood stone.
Among the many bosses that exist in AC, it is a gem found in named bosses and above, and a raw mana stone with the boss’s unique characteristics and abilities.
Unlike the materials artificially created by alchemists, it was rare in that it was created inside the body of a creature with high intelligence and ego.
In other words, it was like an inner altar.
In martial arts, things commonly called mannyeonhwari (萬年火鯉) and ironclad fire dragons (鐵甲火龍) are referred to as spiritual creatures.
Bosses of the name class or higher were also expected to accumulate magic in their bodies little by little while active on the continent for a long time.
It could be said that this Blood Stone was crystallized with more than a certain magical power.
In that respect, Blood Stone possesses magical power that is tens to hundreds of times less than that of magic stones mined in a single mine.
It boasted a much higher degree of purity than the magic stones of craftsmen made by processing magic stones.
Excluding a few legendary materials that could be found in nature—such as Gongqing Petroleum (孔淸石乳) and ice crystal (氷精)—they were so different that it was worth calling them.
Damian also made money by playing the game of his previous life and collecting a lot of Blood Stones.
Because he has earned an astronomical amount that cannot even be compared to the amount he has earned now.
Even more so, considering that the value of the Blood Stone varies widely depending on its nature, the Blood Stone currently in Chunsam’s palm could be said to have a value that could not be ignored.
It was because of the existence of this Blood Stone that he could make Chunsam, who had no one-on-one relationship with the guild, instantly recognized as a high-level adventurer.
“If you bring it to the adventurer’s guild… I don’t know, but the gold class will come out as a free pass right away, right? You can take a simple qualification test, but it won’t be like Summon Gate. Perhaps the special treatment is just a measure of individual combat power. My uncle is very talented, so it shouldn’t be difficult.”
“aha?”
“Even if you sell it, you can make quite a bit of money… It’s because it’s not easy to get a free pass for an adventurer’s license. Please stop by the branch as soon as you arrive in the Principality of Parma.”
“If it’s my nephew, then of course it should be.”
Nod!
When Damian pointed his finger at the Bloodstone and said, Chunsam nodded.
Money really didn’t matter.
After working as an excavator driver for a long time, he started an equipment leasing business and became a multi-billionaire due to the boom in the construction industry. He started AC in his spare time.
It was a car that had been quite sincere in this game after recently retiring as a group with close friends.
Even now, real estate income and financial assets that come in like a simple pension in reality are so generous that there is no problem in living enough.
In other words, Chunsam did not bother to sell the Ogre Bone Crusher Maul, which he had picked with a 0.00000124 percent chance from the gacha item called < Mysterious Jar >, for a large amount of money.
Even after hearing about the value of the Blood Stone from Damian, he was able to remain calm because of his real wealth.
In other words, Chunsam and his friends, who owned a number of buildings with 100% pure ownership without loans, were wealthy people of the middle class or higher, so-called < God Mulju > in Korea.
“By the way, it took longer to clear than I thought. I think your close friends also said they were waiting… I’m sorry, uncle.”
“iced coffee! What do you care about! The old people in the back room are playing themselves! Ha ha ha!”
Damian scratched the back of his head and asked Chun-sam, and Chun-sam pounded his chest with his fist and said.
It was a raid that I didn’t even know time was passing.
The feeling that I couldn’t feel when I was playing solo while wandering in the mountainous area by myself, and the excitement in my heart that I had forgotten about for decades was pulsating.
If it is force, it is control, if it is control, its deep game knowledge and charisma made Chun-Sam feel more affection for Damian.
There was a strange charm that attracted people themselves.
Damien’s overwhelming play brought a sharp thrill to the point of making the viewer sweat.
Because he made Chunsam decide that he must recruit Damian into < Iron Guard >.
“nephew.”
“yes?”
“Are you thinking of playing games with me for a long time?”
“For a long time… together?”
“huh. It’s better if it’s the same clan. I haven’t made it yet.”
Remembrance!
And the moment Chun-sam shook his hand and his eyes lit up, Damian could see the system message floating in front of his eyes.
[Notice: User < Kim Chun-sam > has liked you!]
[Notice: User < Kim Chun-sam > wants to be friends with you!]
[Notice: Do you accept user < Kim Chun-sam >‘s friend request? (yes/no )]
….
It was an offer that Damian could never refuse.
* * *
“Anyway, he’s an unstoppable uncle.”
“Uncle Chunsam is a good person! I gave nuts to Munchi!”
After parting with Chun-sam, Damian stretched out. Behind them, a huge fortress and a transparent magic barrier spread in the form of a dome.
When I looked up from the bottom of the Utah Valley, I thought it was only spiers in the distant sea of clouds, but when I approached the fortress, it looked like a glass music box magnified thousands of times.
And to Damian, who knows that the magical barrier that looks just beautiful is covered with techniques that rival any great fortress.
I was able to experience once again why the city of these spires was able to be nestled in the middle of a distant mountain range.
One of the five swords of the Imperial Khan and the headquarters of wizards ruled by old wizard Hildebrinho de Garcia who has lived for 300 years.
It was the Duchy of Parma.
“It’s still there. here too.”
“There are so many people, master!”
Dig! Pod!
After passing the gateway, Damian turned his head to see dozens of warp gates that flashed every few seconds.
It was the pillars of light pouring down endlessly to the point that he rode a mechanical horse carriage with Chunsam.
That would be true, too, as there were only a handful of nonsensical humans—of course, Damian was one of them—who passed through the Utah Valley barefoot.
It was a tough journey that would take two or three days even for a skilled person capable of passing through the Utah Valley.
Even more so, if you use the gate in the relatively nearby Kingdom of Terra, there was an advantage, not an advantage, that you could warp on the line of tens of thousands of gold, which could be said to be reasonable.
It was said that there was no need to use an old-fashioned means of transportation, such as a mechanical horse carriage.
For example, most of the people who have errands in the Principality of Parma have to use the gate even if they have to pay a fee that Damian can never tolerate, and most of them are indispensable.
It was because here in the Principality of Parma that it was possible to create so many goods that, if done well, the gate fee would be more than enough to pay for.
“No matter how much… Can I just spread it out like this and go?”
Tring!
Damian moved his steps from the outer castle plaza where the warp gates were located and looked at his inventory.
These were the items Chun-sam handed over before parting ways with him.
From loot from wild Ungoliants to countless items dropped by Alaionne, the forgotten Spider Queen.
If it were others, it would have been something they would ask why they handed it all over, but Chunsam replaced it with a kind of advance payment.
It was said that it was a down payment before making a formal recruitment offer.
Although the blood alliance < Iron Guard > hadn’t even been founded yet, and its founder was just a beginner without even an adventurer’s license.
When Chun-Sam said that he only needed the Blood Stone, Damian had to be put in his sleeve… ”
You really won’t get it, Uncle?”
Take everything!」
「No, but I have to give you something…」
「Uh huh! My nephew, do you think I’m the kind of person who deserves something like this?」
「It’s because I have no shame. Your uncle also worked hard.”
“What is hard work! Then, at least put the deposit into the blood alliance later!」
「Aha?」
「Then, is that okay? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
!
With the invincible logic that adults don’t refuse to give, Damian couldn’t let go of force unconditionally.
“I’ll have to work hard to buy something.”
“Buy me a wad, owner!”
“Okay dude.”
Food Duck!
Damian put the wad of blows over his shoulder into his bosom and entered the inner world.
It was a bonus to stop by the general store in advance and purchase a mask hood set.
Even though he is Damian who doesn’t care about the eyes of others, the night chaser set has become a rag because of the close battle with Alaione.
It was impossible to go around wearing a wild boar helmet—actually, there was nothing else to write about—with only one piece of underwear on, with an iron plate on one’s face.
“Where was the location…”
“There are so many towers here, master!”
Wearing a set of Brotherhood robes, Damian strolled through the city and looked at the minimap.
This was the reason why he had spent three days in the Principality of Parma.
Reminiscent of the Yick Cheong Building in Hong Kong, these densely built towers are less than half the size of Terra, and are a place where humans who are crazy about various researches and experiments are gathered.
Even more so, for Damian, who was facing an unspecified number of threats including the Cross Dawn Society and advances to the Central Continent, the street of these mage towers was one of the places he had to come.
– Mage Tower of Knowledge: In-depth exploration of Gnosis and research on enhancement of magical power
– Mage Tower of Vision: Understanding of magic scrolls and progressive experimental application of enchantments
– Mage Tower of Dimension: Adventurer exploration of the other world and development of multi-dimensional and parallel world theories
– Mage Tower of Attributes : Investigation of the powers of the six gods and the principle of birth of attribute stones
– Monster’s Magic Tower : Complete understanding of monsters and objective theoretical research
on their evolutionary genealogy …
Buying rare or unobtainable items.
It was because it was the essence of magical engineering that could create proper equipment, not temporary items like the Brotherhood robe set.
“Ah, I found it.”
Tring!
Eventually, Damian raised his head with the sound of the mini-map.
