Chapter 141 Searching for clues is annoying.
Jae-Young returns to Arcadia after leaving behind all the turmoil in reality. It was truly amazing to see how Caribbean has changed since I haven’t logged in for the past few days.
“Hey, bring some wood over there.”
“Once this area is overhauled, next time it’s B area first.”
“Oh, the smell. hey! Haven’t you cleaned up the sewage system here? Where did the organization decide to take this?”
“Just one more time, if you show strange dissension over another member of the organization and get caught in a war of nerves, you know that you won’t really be fine with it. Everyone in the Caribbean is one. Didn’t you hear what Carlos said?”
Criminal organizations that had previously snarled and fiercely battled in the city streets, abandoning city management altogether. But now everyone has become ordinary laborers and laborers, repairing the city that was completely neglected and ruined.
[Criminal city of Caribbean is being restored.]
[36% of city functions have been restored.]
[The power war between criminal organizations has ended.]
[City stability has risen to 89%.]
Pirate King Carlos.
With overwhelming force and charisma, and the overwhelming support of the Caribbean’s residents who have not forgotten the glory of the past, they were busy preparing something while consolidating their dominion once again.
“Oh, where did you come from? my friend.”
As if he had been looking for him for a long time, Carlos was delighted as soon as he saw Jaeyoung. And Jaeyoung shook his head as if nothing was wrong with his hospitality.
“Ah, I was just personally taking a quiet break. Rather… what the hell are those things lying there? I don’t think it’s anything out of the ordinary.”
Carlos, who was looking at something together with his new henchmen, pirates with a formidable impression who seemed to have been with the ship all their lives. On top of his desk, there were several items that looked old and faded, like japtem that would be sold in a shop.
“Ah… you mean these?”
Carlos smiles strangely at Jaeyoung’s question. He smiled confidently and spoke in a boastful tone.
“Based on what you told me, these are the things I found after searching and looking all over the Caribbean. To be honest, I didn’t completely believe what you said… but seeing these things, I can’t help but believe it.”
Four objects on the desk. They were all necessary items when sailing on a ship and sailing the distant sea.
A compass that spins around so much that it is questionable whether it is working properly.
Even if only a faint afterimage remains, it is almost impossible to decipher.
A telescope that can’t see properly due to a cracked lens, and even someone’s rugged voyage.
The supplies needed for moving the continent that have been neglected and hidden for a long time. If it wasn’t for Carlos, the ruler of the Caribbean, it was obvious that it would have taken a lot of time and effort just to find it.
“The New Continent exists. Although I had no choice but to check the related information through records… I also found the charts he made that were recorded at the time, and along with them, I was able to find items from the legend related to the ‘Endless Sea’.”
A compass and telescope that look like something old and antique. As he picked them up, Carlos frowned in pain.
“But… it seems that it has been damaged due to being exposed to harsh environments and neglected for a long time, so it is not functioning properly.”
A compass and a telescope that seem unable to function just by looking at them. Seeing him with a sad expression on his face, Jaeyoung tilted his head and asked.
“Is this thing really that important?”
“of course. According to the logbook given here, he continues to say that he would never have survived the ‘Endless Sea’ without these two items. In order to find a new continent… they must be made so that they can function properly no matter what.”
Carlos says it must be fixed. At his words, Jaeyoung asked again.
“how? Is there a way?”
At that question, Carlos shook his head with a dark expression.
“I’m sorry… but we don’t know anything in this area. If it’s old and magically endowed like this, most people probably won’t even be able to restore it.”
Then he looked at Jaeyoung with a coy look and asked.
“So… can you take these guys to the Blue Mage Tower and ask them to restore them? Our people are all notorious criminals, and there are too many troubles outside the Caribbean.”
blue mage tower.
The only base city for wizards on the 2nd continent. It was the spiritual home of wizards, and it was also a place where all the infrastructure for wizards was concentrated to such an extent that if you were a wizard user, you must visit this place. Carlos’s request to go there and inquire about repairs. Hearing this, Jaeyoung frowned.
“If it’s the Blue Mage Tower… isn’t it the complete opposite of here?”
Unlike general RPG games that provide quick movement or various means to move around the continent in an instant, Arcadia requires genuinely moving time and effort through walking or various means of transportation. It was really annoying to Jaeyoung to go directly to the Blue Magic Tower on the opposite side of the Caribbean and ask for repairs across the continent.
“Perhaps the Enchanter School can provide a clue on how to restore these items. And even if you repair these things, it will probably take quite a while as the materials needed to fix them will be hard to find here.”
A compass and telescope that look like they will be filled with precious and expensive magic materials. Therefore, Carlos’ request was quite reasonable and reasonable.
[I have acquired the key clues necessary for the scenario.]
[The quest Restoration of an old magic artifact has been created.]
That is why the quest was created for Jaeyoung. After confirming the contents, he let out a deep sigh at the fact that he had to return to the Blue Mage Tower without moving.
‘Haa….. It’s annoying…..’
A journey that seems to take at least 2 to 3 weeks just to go there. In addition, from there, I got the quests needed to restore the artifacts, gathered the necessary materials, restored them, and headed back to the Caribbean… Just thinking about all those obvious, cumbersome, and arduous processes made my head hurt.
‘How can I…?’
Jae-young started to turn her head to full due to the annoyance that came from deep in her bones. And he soon began to try something out of curiosity.
Whoops.
A gray aura that boasts its existence by emitting a strange resonating sound from his hand.
Plausibility.
Bringing it out to the fullest, Jaeyoung recalled the story Tan had told him before.
[The power to artificially twist and intervene while breaking all the laws of the world and ignoring causality. do you have that All you need is just willpower.]
Virtual Reality Arcadia.
A game full of questions that has just been released and many things are hidden behind a veil. Jaeyoung, who felt a degree of freedom beyond what he had imagined, put his hands on the old and broken compass and telescope, recalling a strong will in his heart.
[A broken relic of the past reacts to the player.]
[A broken relic can be restored by consuming Probability. Do you want to restore?]
[Probability of necessity: 200000]
Recovery costs that require an enormous probability of 100,000 per unit. However, Jaeyoung muttered with his eyes wide open as if he was amazed at the fact that restoration was possible right away, ignoring all complicated processes, as long as the probability was paid.
“Wow, is this going to happen?”
Jaeyoung, who smiled strangely, moved his finger toward one of the two selection windows that appeared in front of him.
* * *
Myung-Han Kwon, Managing Director of Arcadia’s Korean branch.
He was sitting alone in the office talking with his direct subordinate, General Manager Kang Tae-hoon, whom he trusted and relied on the most, with a serious face.
“What do you mean by that, Mr. A continental drift scenario imminent?”
Director Kang Tae-hun asks with a face full of embarrassment. He couldn’t come to his senses at all when he heard the news from Executive Director Kwon Myeong-han, who quietly called him out.
“That’s literally it….. This is what I just confirmed after receiving permission from CEO Lee Mi-yeon to access related information. It seems that a user is currently solving the preceding quest necessary to move to another continent through Carlos, who has taken control of the Caribbean.”
It was an approximate content, but just with the explanation of Executive Director Myung-Han Kwon, Director Kang Tae-Hoon realized what the aftermath this scenario would bring and asked with a shocked face.
“Wait a minute, Mr. So, does that mean that one user is on the verge of a real continental shift…?”
“okay. It’s not going to be that easy, but… Starting with that user, the fact that it’s possible to move to another continent will be revealed in the future. It is impossible to predict what the scale will be because the flow of the scenario has not yet been finalized, but I am telling you because I think you should know.”
“So fast?”
Another continent of Arcadia occupied by another country. By setting different starting points, each country established a branch in charge of users’ play and was responsible for the overall operation and service of each continent, but cooperation or exchange between each branch was not working properly. asked with a puzzled face.
“Then, how do you manage the user?”
“What do you mean by that?”
Managing Director Kwon Myeong-han tilts his head as if he doesn’t understand what he’s saying. Director Kang Tae-hun asked him in a calm voice with a slightly excited face.
“If a user who used to play on the Korean continent goes to another continent and starts doing all sorts of shit there… no, do we have to take responsibility for that too?”
The personalism following the user’s birth (?) and the territorialism following the jurisdiction of that place.
At the sudden question of what policy should be applied there, Executive Director Myung-Han Kwon put on a blank expression for a moment.
“Why are you suddenly curious here? You can’t believe it…..”
Managing Director Kwon Myung-han wanted to ask if he was doing it because he didn’t want to work. However, he couldn’t bear to open his mouth at the question of Manager Kang Tae-hoon, who was doing it again with a more serious face than ever before.
“Please answer me, Mr. Don’t you know how much our department is struggling right now? Even if it’s not a scenario that starts in the Caribbean, there are more than one or two problems we have to deal with now.”
Starting with the issue of power abuse at the top of GM, which broke out again, to the users who signed the slave contract of Baron Mikhail, who started a collective action saying he would go to court. In addition, the second scenario currently in progress, the emergence of heterogeneous species and various major quests related to it were slowly being released to users, so the shit pouring out on them in relation to it was already piled up so enormously that they could not handle it. .
“…..”
And Kwon Myeong-han, executive director who knows that better than anyone else. That’s why he said to Director Kang Tae-hoon, who was nervous and with a desperate expression on his eyes that he felt a little sad.
“About that part… I’ll try to figure it out again. And don’t worry. I know very well that you guys are having a hard time, and I will try to tell the boss about it so that I don’t harm you.”
“thank you! thank you! Managing Director!”
Director Kang Tae-hoon shouted thanks while bowing his head.
He sighed in relief as he remembered this moment in the near future. And as he watched in real time as the gigantic shit no one could handle cut through the huge ocean of Arcadia and crossed over to another continent, he let out a cry of joy in his heart.
