Episode 546. The fire spirit king ‘Igni’
“Koooooo!”
A roar that shakes the heavens and the earth.
The clouds parted and the earth shook.
The three dragons gathered fearsome magic while facing the cliff. ”
You dare to
intervene in the dragon’s affairs…”
[Dragon activates ‘Pier’!]
Kukukukukuku!
to live solitary
It was not an easy scene to see dragons with low emotional ups and downs show such anger.
On the other side is a gigantic being whose whole body is engulfed in blazing flames.
It was Igni, the fire spirit king.
Igni, holding a long sword made of fire, was facing three ancient-class dragons alone.
“Wow…”
“This is…”
“That’s amazing.”
“There are so many dragons… so many…”
Everyone who was watching opened their mouths in a daze.
Ever since I knew I was peeping into past memories, I knew at least that something unusual was going to happen…
but I never thought it would be this absurd.
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
Kwaaang!
The flames scattered in all directions, leaving long scars on the cliffs.
It was as if two huge natural disasters collided head-on.
once.
twice.
and three times.
Battles continued, but the balance remained tight.
“Those of the great race do unspeakable things… and speak well. I wouldn’t have come out myself if you guys hadn’t done anything to bring disaster to the tower.”
Jinhyeok’s eyes trembled slightly at Igni’s words.
A secret that dragons never want to reveal.
this is about him
As Igni growled, the dragons moved even more urgently.
“Shut up!”
“I’ll rip that mouth right now!”
“I will make it impossible for you to come out of the spirit realm forever!”
Three different breaths converged into one point.
The colorful magic powers merged into one and began to glow indigo.
“No matter how much you do… will… not… happen.”
And right when Igni spoke.
Tring! Tring! Tring!
[If you proceed further than this, you will learn the secret of the dragons.]
[If you learn the secrets of the dragons, all objects will become the achievements of the dragons, and a ‘stigma’ will be engraved on each target. The effect of the stigma lasts forever unless given.)
Red status windows flashed in succession in front of everyone.
This is a warning.
If you cross this line, there will be no turning back.
did everyone know that The atmosphere instantly stiffened.
“Dragons’ fury?”
“This is not easy.”
“brother. sisters. Are you all of the same opinion?”
“of course!”
“I agree. There is no need to increase the number of enemies. The risk will be too high.”
Everyone nodded.
Anyway, as long as he peeped at his memories, the linked quests must have been fulfilled to some extent.
Even if it was considered a failure, it was better than taking this risk.
As long as the 33rd floor was captured, I could have given up the rewards.
but.
[You chose to proceed.]
The final decision method of the linked quest is not a democracy by voting.
It is the inherent authority of the party leader to lead the group that received the quest.
“Yeah, as expected, hearing other people’s secrets is the most fun. What is it really like?”
Jinhyeok’s eyes lit up.
“Crazy…”
“No, dear!”
“brother!”
“Haa…”
“It’s a headache. It’s like this… It’s like Jim’s contractor.”
A bitter sigh escaped everyone’s lips.
A crazy old man who breaks the obvious common sense.
The biggest mistake was overlooking Jinhyeok’s existence.
[Memories are replayed.]
What followed was…
…with dragons unleashing their breath.
Igni takes it all alone.
and.
The purple tentacles that finally emerged from the darkness were
Nyarlathotep.
An ancient being floating on the stairs blocked Igni.
“It’s really annoying. It’s already hot, but I’m dying to face a hot fireball.”
Nyarlathotep scratched his head.
In his tone full of indolence and annoyance, he even felt annoyance at the dragons who had called him here.
“The problem is that there are only incompetent ones. Isn’t it?”
The dragons flinched and trembled.
“sorry.”
“We tried to deal with it on our own line as much as possible…”
“Because it’s a fire spirit, so the breath doesn’t work properly…”
“It’s done. I should have just started from the beginning. Tsk.”
Nyarlathotep drew out a long staff.
[‘Primeval Power’ – Silence is activated.]
Kukukukuku!
The tentacles vibrated in unison.
Purple waves began to form huge waves.
“I didn’t want to go this far, but you crossed the line too much.”
“You mean looking behind the filthy curtains is a sin? Well, if it is known that you, not the dragons, will decide the position of the Dragon Lord, it will cause a big stir.”
Igni countered this and blew flame into the huge longsword.
Roaring!
The flame completely engulfed the sword body.
The flow of the sword is too natural, not befitting its huge size.
The sword that gracefully cut through the air had a shape.
“In addition, it should not be known that the lives of 1,000 residents must be sacrificed to create the soul stone that symbolizes Lord. The noble dragons and the absolute authority of the 50th floor will collapse.”
“Whoop whoop. Talking about a pierced mouth. Well, that’s accurate anyway. There is not a single word wrong. Because… you know why you have to die here?”
“I have no intention of falling in vain. Even if the opponent is you.”
“Everyone talks like that. Until you taste the tentacles once.”
Soon after, a huge shockwave occurred.
Cracks like the shells of turtles on the cliffs began to shatter everything in sight.
It was the last thing everyone could see.
[Memory ends.]
[Penalty is applied for peeking into the secret!]
[You acquired +1 ‘Fire Fragment’!]
The status window flashed again, and everything ended.
***
When the charred vision came back, it was not a fierce battlefield, but a landscape after the passing of years.
“Big! I never thought the dragons would have such a secret… and I would see the memories of that time with my own eyes.”
Jinhyeok clenched his fists.
On the other hand, the faces of the rest of the members had turned earthy.
It’s secret and it’s nabal.
In the future, the dragon race as well as the 50th floor were additionally pursued.
There are already many enemies, but the things to pay attention to have multiplied several times.
“Haa… Really, because of you…”
Chun Yoo-seong barely swallowed the curse that came out of his stomach.
It’s useless to say
Even if you get angry, it’s always this side that loses.
“done. let’s not talk speak. I’m going to cool off, so we’ll talk about how to handle this later.”
“I also need to get some sleep today. When I wake up, I hope everything is a dream.”
“Whoa. Get some rest too.”
Yoo Yeon-hwa and Lee Tae-min also waved and left.
Mmm. Everyone is so messed up that it pricks the hairs of my conscience a little.
Still, everyone will thank you later.
If you form a hostile relationship with the primeval beings from the beginning, the range of rewards you receive later will be much larger.
‘By the way…’
Jinhyeok’s gaze turned to the fist-sized fireball.
The burning fragments are ‘fire fragments’ left by Igni.
If you only have this, Igni will contact you first.
Now that we share the common enemy of dragons and primeval beings.
Jinhyeok kept the fragments of fire in a corner of the subspace inventory.
Now, the urgent fire on the 33rd floor was roughly extinguished.
The next thing to do is post-processing of Olympus and Ragnarok.
[Request to talk to the upper faction ‘Ragnarok’.]
Ugh!
When the scroll was torn, a dazzling light flickered.
at the same time.
Pants…!
Blue lightning fell from the sky.
“Ahhh….. Your socks are all sore.”
What manifested was a giant with a muscular body.
It’s Thor, the god of thunder.
His entire body was covered in dust and blood, no matter where he had been rampaging until just now.
“Wasn’t the war over?”
Anyone who sees it will know that the final war has taken place.
“The big one is over. However, the small battle still continues. damn it It’s all because those filthy bastards aren’t wearing clean clothes.”
“I’m not the type to give up easily.”
Although they lost two main gods, the rest of the deities, including Zeus, are still in good health.
It wasn’t even that the huge base called Olympus was damaged.
“So… I need your help. There is now a limit to stopping the enraged warriors from attacking Olympus.”
but. There’s no way that the battle fanatics who want to go to Valhalla ignore the provocation.
It seems that the situation is more precarious than expected if Thor said that.
“Did you set the meeting place to the place I told you about?”
“Nothing. I’ve prepared everything just as you asked.”
“All right. Then let’s go right away.”
“good. Big! Heimdall! are you listening hey!”
Thor shouted into the air.
Then another deity appeared in the sky.
“Your ears will fall. I can hear everything even if you don’t speak so loudly.”
“Hahaha! I thought you were gone again.”
“Is it only the two of you other than Thor who are going?”
Heimdall looked at Jinhyeok and Ellis.
“yes.”
“Right.”
[Heimdall summons the ‘Bridge Connecting Dimensions’!]
A rainbow bridge leading to ‘New Asgard’, the city of warriors.
Finally, the time has come to see with your own eyes how the new home of Norse mythology was completed.
⁕⁕⁕
A mountain with clouds under your feet.
Even in the heart of Olympus, several deities were ready to move.
Tak… Tak.
Looking over the bonfire is Ares, the god of war. And it was Artemis who was suffering from the loss of Apollo.
Finally, Athena, armed with a shield and a spear, opened her mouth heavily.
“They started moving.”
“Okay, this is the beginning.”
Ares gave a slight hint of excitement.
On the other hand.
“…”
Artemis showed a different reaction from Ares.
flinch
The hand holding the arrow trembled.
It seemed as if he would run away at any moment as the vicious lifeblood simmered out.
“Artemis!”
Athena shouted.
“…!”
“I know you are upset. But you must not forget the mission your father gave you.”
“…”
Tears of blood flowed from Artemis’ eyes.
It was hard to control my emotions just by looking at Jinhyeok and Alice through the eyes of the owls.
forget everything
knock it all down
To the point where I want to kill everyone.
But it was Zeus’ order that made him suppress even those emotions.
This meeting could completely change the future.
That’s why everyone has to move according to the perfectly planned script.
“Chensei and Eden also left for Asgard. You and I will also represent Olympus and go there, but you must not attack first until Ares brother gives you a signal.”
“Are you saying we have to stay still even with our enemy in front of us?”
“Opportunity will surely come. Certainly.”
If you shake it inside and outside the tower at the same time.
No matter how impregnable he was, he would have no choice but to expose a gap.
