Episode 372
Ansan’s treasure trove was located in a facility formerly called the Gyeonggi Provincial Art Museum.
The reason is because it was good for storing various items.
A building with an unusual appearance, as expected from an art museum. Eunji Kang took us to the entrance of the museum, passed all the security facilities, and stood in front of what appeared to be a safe.
“… … Things are one by one. I’ll only give you 5 minutes. “You have to come out quickly, okay?”
She gives us her final advice as she holds what appears to be a key card to the safe entrance.
“yes. “I’ll be out soon.”
As Kang Eun-ji says that and prepares to enter the safe, she bursts into laughter.
“It will be difficult to get out soon.”
The safe’s door opened wide with a rattling sound, revealing the inside.
Each object is stored in a glass tube or something.
Latte, who was standing behind me, froze with her mouth wide open at the overwhelming sight, but I quickly walked away while holding her hand.
The reason is simple.
Because I’ve been here many times, I already knew where and what was there.
“Latte! “You are that!”
“to? to? Um, is that?! “Isn’t that a recorder?”
“Recorder and Nabal, you’re perfect for that!”
“Ah, yes!”
I first walked in the direction of the item that suited Latte the best and pointed at it.
[Name: Flute of Hamelin]
[Grade: Relic]
[Type: Flute]
[Explanation: This is the flute used by the Man of Hamelin, who was said to have summoned all the rats in the city by playing the flute. By blowing the flute, you can control all rats within a 2km radius.]
【skill】
[One. World-class relic: The original owner of this relic is a world-famous celebrity. It has two effects.
a. Durability increases dramatically.
b. It has inherent self-repairing and cleaning functions.
[2. Music of the rats: The physical abilities of the rats that listen to the melody of this flute are strengthened.
[2. Calamity of Hameln: You can now control the movements of those with weak mental states.]
One of Latte’s drawbacks is that it is difficult to use her abilities when it is difficult to find rats nearby.
However, using this item, it is possible to completely eradicate all rats in the vicinity.
Moreover, this flute increased the abilities of the rats, so it could be said to be the optimal item for Latte.
She immediately joins me, holding a recorder.
As she believed that I had the ability to feel emotions, there was no hesitation in her actions.
Okay, so this part is finished.
“You’re next, right?”
“this way!”
“yes!”
Run towards the deepest part of the safe.
Usually the most valuable things are on the inside.
I ran straight to the deepest part of the safe, checked the item I was aiming for, and immediately picked it up.
At the same time, Kang Eun-ji’s voice is heard from outside.
“Five minutes have passed! come out!”
Well, since she has so little time, you’d think she’d come up with something that looks reasonably good.
but.
“Thanks to you, I got some really good items. Thank you, Empress.”
Even if it was a latte, her expression hardened the moment she saw the object in my hand.
“How did you… … ?”
She looks dumbfounded at the object in my hand.
“I just chose it because it looked delicious, right? “I was hungry.”
“… … what?”
He smiled brightly as he explained why he chose this item.
“Did you know what it was and chose it?”
“yes? “Isn’t it just red ginseng?”
Yes. What I am holding in my hand is an item that is emitting a brilliant light.
[Name: Im Sang-ok’s Ginseng]
[Grade: Unique]
[Type: Elixir]
[Explanation: This is one of the ginsengs that Im Sang-ok sold in the Qing Dynasty in the past, and is one of the ginsengs that survived even in the scorching heat. Is it because it contains the narrative of that time? This ginseng contains a narrative and creates a new
It was born as an elixir of luck.
When consumed, all resistances increase by 20% for one week, and after the effect ends, it returns to its original state with only 5% efficacy remaining.]
Yes.
‘All resistant’.
An item with the crazy effect of increasing all resistance to fire, water, wind, disease, and insanity.
Even if each item was only 5%, if you add those numbers together, it was an item that had a tremendous effect.
Every time I robbed this place, it was an item I always picked up while chewing it in my mouth… … .
Considering what I need to consume in the future, choosing this is the most right thing to do.
“Anyway, we will use the items to our advantage. thank you.”

“Oh, thank you. Empress!”
Latte followed me and bowed her head to express her gratitude.
For some reason, Kang Eun-ji seemed to tremble even more at that sight.
“… … good.”
“yes.”
“yes!”
As I felt her voice becoming even colder, I immediately left the art museum behind and ran hard.
Gurgling ───!!
I felt the museum and the surrounding ground shaking greatly.
* * *
“You really are… … “You bring a lot of amazing items from all over.”
Parnello, who entered the room after receiving my call, was laughing as if he was dumbfounded by the scene unfolding in my room.
That’s right… … .
“There will be an all-out war soon, so we need to prepare for something like this.”
This was because the items lying on the floor of my room were all unusual elixirs.
One is the heart of a basilisk, and the other is Im Sang-ok’s ginseng.
Even a person without emotional skills could sense that the appearance of the two elixirs was unusual.
“May I ask what else you brought this time?”
In response to his questions, I gave him the information about the two items straight away. Only then did he realize why he had been summoned.
“You’re protecting the law.”
“In martial terms, that’s the way it is.”
In other words, it protects me while I take the elixir.
As there was precedent in the past, I was confident that Farnello would take the right action no matter what happened to me.
“Can I ask you a favor?”
“How can I refuse your order? “Do as you wish, Master.”
“thank you. Parnello.”
After thanking him, I also start preparing to eat.
First of all, plastic was laid out on the floor in case blood spattered. And even a swimsuit attire in case your clothes get soaked in blood.
The environment that was perfectly prepared through my previous experience was… … .
“It looks like a murder scene.”
“I agree.”
Well, it looks a bit weird, but this is the end of the preparation.
After mentally preparing, I took a deep breath with the ginseng and heart in front of me.
and.
“Whoa… … First of all, let’s start with this.”
First, I lifted Im Sang-ok’s ginseng. The plan is to eat the basilisk’s heart after raising its resistance.
Ah! The ginseng begins to chew with a sound.
The juice mixed from the ginseng was wrapped around my tongue, spreading a bitter taste in my mouth, and automatically causing me to frown.
but.
‘this… … ‘Is it better than I thought?’
The richness and sweetness felt in the middle.
When I actually tried it, I realized that it wasn’t as bitter as I thought and that it actually tasted good for your health.
That moment.
‘Umm… … .’
Slowly, heat begins to circulate in the body.
Like an elixir with positive energy, it warms up the body.
A notification window appears before your eyes.
[You have consumed a new elixir!]
[All resistances increase by 20% for one week!]
I haven’t noticed any dramatic changes yet, but the fact that the system window pops up like that means it’s definitely working.
then… … I looked at the heart of the basilisk, which was the highlight of the day.
If I think about the last time I ate a thousand poison pills, my body is already shaking, but I can’t kick away the opportunity to become stronger.
I slowly grasped the ‘Heart of the Basilisk’ with my Midas-gloved hand.
‘… … In order to eat the heart of a basilisk in the original game, you had to increase your poison resistance significantly.’
I believe I can consume enough for my specifications, but no one knows what will happen.
Nevertheless, my actions were unrestrained.
“thank you for this food.”
As soon as he put the bead-shaped heart into his mouth, he immediately swallowed it.
And at the same time.
──Boom!
“Ouch!”
The first crisis came as I felt a huge sense of nausea right from the beginning.
It doesn’t feel like it’s coming from swallowing a large object, but rather it feels like it’s boiling up from inside.
When you force yourself to endure it and bend over.
“Spit it out. “Isn’t this the plastic that was put on the floor anyway?”
I heard Farnello’s advice.
okay. Let’s spit it out.
“Cough! “Gagging!”
In an instant, dark red blood spurted out from the mouth.
Things that come out when the poison destroys the body and regenerates at the same time. It’s already getting dizzy to think that it’s gotten to this point from the beginning.
but.
‘But maybe it’s because it’s an experienced job. It’s worth holding on… … !’
Last time, I literally didn’t know when I would lose my mind, but now I can still keep my mind.
but.
‘It would be less painful if I passed out… … !’
The problem was that it hurt a lot.
A hot pain overtook my body, as if the blood inside my body had turned into lava, but I suppressed the pain with my breathing as much as I could, taking deep breaths and exhaling them.
Of course, it is also essential to spit out blood every time it accumulates in the mouth.
While struggling to keep my body in poor condition, I did my best to absorb the energy of the elixir.
That moment.
“I guess it’s a good thing I came.”
Parnello comes up behind me and starts pressing somewhere on my body.
“I released the blood vessels that had begun to become entangled as a side effect of the elixir.”
“Cough!”
Hemoptysis occurs once again.
However, unlike the frustration I had felt so far, I felt a little more relaxed as soon as I spit it out.
“Can you hold on?”
I responded by shaking my head as he looked as if he was saying, ‘Do you want me to knock you out?’
“It’s worth holding on!”
Is there anything free in this world?
What I realized when I came here was that the only way to become strong was through pain.
Above all, if you think about the new abilities you will gain by eating this now… … .
‘Special killer, serotonin painkiller.’
Just thinking about happy things makes me feel like the pain is slowly subsiding.
It wasn’t long before I slowly moved the energy in my stomach to my heart and spread it throughout my body.
“young master. “Please look in the mirror.”
“thing… … wool?”
Farnello’s worried voice was heard.
After hearing his words and looking in the mirror, I see my face clearly. The bluish figure reflected there looked like a corpse.
“Haha, what a masterpiece.”
I had no idea that transferring energy to the heart would change the color of my skin, but it became clear that I was almost there.
Little by little, warmth began to mix with the cold energy.
I started to gather up all the energy I had left.
At the same time, the color of the face gradually returns.
And when the body finally normalizes completely.
“Whoa.”
[You have succeeded in consuming the Basilisk’s poison!]
At the same time as the window of success, a new ability appeared before my eyes.
