Episode 89
Episode 89: The hungry stone box (2)
A magic wire was extracted from the mana core inside the body and connected to the hammer.
[Magicification: Aggressiveness]
A single magic line grows at a rapid pace and spreads roots within the hammer.
Complex magic circuits housed inside the hammer at high speeds.
This is also the magic of the third level.
It had the effect of infusing magic into ordinary tools and forcibly turning them into artifacts.
Of course, it cannot be used like this forever. Since it was created by forcibly applying magical energy, the enchanted tool itself will be destroyed over time.
But that moment is enough.
[Forged by Glacier]
Quad deuk! PAD DEUD DEUD DEUK!!
The magic power contained in the hammer soon turns into large ice.
The expanded pillar of ice becomes the handle of the hammer, which in turn becomes the head of the giant hammer.
Coooooo!
In an instant, it changed from a ceremonial tool to a weapon similar in size to the giant battle hammer that Daeyong Kwak had previously wielded.
“and… … .”
[Enhanced power]
[Enhanced hardness]
[Increased attack range]
[Enhanced fatality rate]
[Explosive Strike]
[Sudden blow]
I’m so excited… … .
It no longer has the shape of an ordinary hammer.
Due to the excessive concentration of magical power, the hammer deteriorated in a bizarre way, and magic circles that were not originally there were blooming on the surface.
“then… … .”
Seokham continues to struggle to escape the ghost.
The momentum was so tenacious that more than half of the arms wrapped around the stone box had already disappeared.
Now, there is a route we can try regarding that bastard… … .
There are about 5 of them.
Just destroy it, blow it to another dimension, remove its soul and turn it into a normal artifact… … .
But this is the most useful route in the long run.
“First of all, I’m a fan!”
Although I applied the enchantment, there are clear limitations with strength 8.
Therefore, I brought in several of the ghostly arms that were entangled with the guy’s body and made them swing the hammer with me.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaa!
A huge hammer of ice swung like a flash of light.
The stone box, which was entangled in the hands of the ghosts, was unable to avoid the attack and was hit squarely.
The impact must have been so great that the heavy stone box shook and floated in the air.
‘Yes, no matter how many buffs are on my body, I need to have this level of power.’
The stone box that was thrown away by the blow bounced back and tried to attack me… … .
Baaaaaaaaaa!
bang! Kwakwak! Kwasik, kwaaaaaaang!
After that, indiscriminate assault continued.
Every time I swung the hammer, it sounded like a mountain collapsing.
The stone box does not offer any resistance and rolls around the basement several times.
Nevertheless, Seokham rushed back with tenacity.
“Then it’s more true!”
Kwaaaang!! Quack! bang!
“Huh… … Huh… … After all, it’s not something worth doing with this body.”
Even applying the buff like that is so difficult… … In fact, there was an intention to test the 3rd tier buffs.
I came to the conclusion that even if other buffs were created, I should avoid doing things like this as much as possible.
But even in the meantime, the stone box flies by without getting tired of it.
“It’s so hard! “It’s not very efficient!”
Quaaaaaaa!!
Kwajangchangchang! Rumbling! Come on!
“Oh, my… … .”
The stone box that flew off ended up on a shelf piled with medicine bottles.
As the medicine bottles piled up on the shelf spill out, they start emitting colorful, unpleasant smoke along with a loud noise. and… … .
bang!! pop! Quack!!
I don’t know what effect the medicines had, but some of the vials began to explode.
“Wow, it’s no joke. Do you want to do more?”
Now, it seems like that stone guy has finally realized that he can’t defeat me.
Instead of rushing further, the guy took another action.
Pad deud deuk… … Drizzle… … .
The stone box, which had no way to make a voice, made the sound of stones grinding against the lid.
It looks similar to a growling animal.

“What if you growl!”
After a few more hits, Seokham was completely stunned.
Although he no longer has the will to resist and has become calm, this is not enough.
If you just want to subdue it, there are many ways to do it other than beating it hard.
I extended my hand toward the stone box and activated my characteristic.
[The hidden characteristic ‘Heir of the Corpse Pile’ is activated.]
This isn’t magic.
A hidden trait obtained by absorbing the ‘Echo of Suffocation’ taken from Heoju.
****
[Heir of the Corpse Pile]: You can make strange beings that have succumbed to you into your subordinates.
/The followers of the suffocating leader will obey you.
****
Churrarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr order.
From the ‘echo of suffocation’ that dwells in my soul, magical reins and chains extend out and wrap around the stone box.
[‘Magic Cache – Hungry Stone Chest’ resists your attributes with mental power.]
[Determining surrender… … .]
[Judgment successful! ‘Magic Storage – The Hungry Stone Box’ recognizes the ‘echo of suffocation’ in your body and surrenders to your power.]
Paaaa-.
The magic circles on the surface of the stone box began to wriggle and change shape.
Ultimately, the magic circle became a shape that reflected the shape of my soul and magic power pattern.
Now this stone box is also my property.
[Achievement achieved! You have defeated the ‘Magic Cache – Hungry Stone Chest’. You have obtained ‘Achievement: Magic Box’.
As a reward for the achievement, you will receive all the items contained in the storage box and gain additional experience.]
Now the emotions I feel toward him are fear, submission, frustration, mild anger… … That’s about it.
“It’s not like taming a wild horse… … .”
But this stone box has been completely tamed. I will use you as a safe.
“Hey, open it.”
The stone box twitches. It’s an ambiguous shape to personify, but… … I feel surprised, or rather prickly.
“I told you to open it. “I am your master now.”
Seokham trembled for a moment and then slowly opened the lid.
Creak… … .
Open mouth… … No, there is a large space inside the lid that can fit a couple of people into it.
And the items stored in that space welcomed me with a dazzling glow.
“Hmm, I definitely like this.”
All of the wealth that Uncle Bone had accumulated over 150 years became mine.
Now that I think about it, there was a time when I saved up a few hundred million and then talked about financial freedom.
“Hey, this is Kim Shin-hwa from the past. I’m embarrassed. I’m embarrassed.”
I’ll be able to sleep well tonight, dreaming about counting money.
* * *
A day has passed.
[System: The exclusive attribute ‘Abyss Madness’ is activated. Nullifies the effect of nightmare.]
“eww… … Head hurts… … .”
I have a headache because I can’t sleep well.
“Oh, it looks like you drank something.”
I had trouble sleeping because of the terrible nightmare that returned for the first time in a while.
This is because the Myeonggyeong of the ancient god, which had been preventing nightmares, was taken away by Heo Sang-hyeon.
I tried not to think about it too deeply, but when I thought about it, I felt mildly annoyed.
For a moment, I looked up at the second floor where Heo Sang-hyun was sleeping and gritted my teeth.
“Tsk… … .”
Yes, Heo Sang-hyun didn’t do anything wrong.
When I decided to save Heo Sang-hyeon, this nightmare was no different from my choice.
I sighed briefly and started doing what I had planned last night.
Let’s go! Snap! Geek
Strange noises are heard from all directions.
This is the noise heard from the bodies of the command golems cleaning up the mansion.
Today is cleaning day.
[Starving Mansion] has become my new base since yesterday.
This is the living room located on the first floor of the mansion.
“Okay, move that over there. Hey, that won’t work. “Get a mop and wipe the floor first.”
Cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck.
As soon as I recovered from the nightmare, I summoned all the ghost golems in the mansion.
These monsters were born to attack intruders in the mansion, but now they serve as workers to improve the living environment in the mansion.
For work efficiency, the bodies of some of the golems were also rearranged.
For example, like the guy over there with a whip and a broom where his hands should be.
A four-armed command golem is rearranging a cabinet full of props, and a large command golem is moving a sofa.
In addition, there is a guy who washes windows, a guy who waxes hallways, a guy who repairs curtains, etc… … .
Although cleaning has been going on for almost half a day, the living room and hallway have not completely escaped their previous gloomy atmosphere.
“Anyway, it’s a 150-year-old haunted house… … No, this is not an order. “Keep doing what you’re doing.”
This starving mansion is an evil space filled with madness and evil that has accumulated for 150 years.
Even if you clean it diligently for a day or two, there is no way that this mansion will immediately turn into a decent country home.
If we take that into account and look around the mansion again with lowered eyes… … Now, we can finally say that this mansion has become quite clean.
Command golems of different shapes are busily moving around inside the mansion.
And as the spirit golems move harder, unpleasant noises produced by the spirit golems can be heard from all parts of the mansion.
Klikikik, kikkigeek, kkigikkik! Kikikkkkkkkkk!
‘That doesn’t sound nice.’
Due to the structure of the body made up of miscellaneous things, it seems that the noise cannot be eliminated with any significant improvement.
Will it get better if I change the driving method a bit more? They even put bearings in each joint… … .
There are still a lot of things that need to be sorted out before then.
For example… … Second floor.
I went up the stairs to the second floor.
There are a total of 4 rooms on the second floor.
And from the second floor, you can see the stairs going up again.
If you go up the stairs, there is an attic that is a bit difficult to call the third floor.
However, the attic was a space of little significance in the game.
‘Is there an infiltration path above the attic?’
If it’s above the attic, it’s the rooftop, but somehow there’s a window facing the rooftop.
I’ve only used it once when I infiltrated this mansion in the game. It may just be an element to provide a variety of play experiences.
In any case, I don’t have the energy to fix such a meaningless attic.
First of all, there are the first and second floors, and the basement. These spaces alone will be almost 200 pyeong.
Besides, I just forced myself to sleep roughly yesterday, but if I want to sleep comfortably today, I need to quickly clean up the second floor.
Bugs with patterns that look like human faces appear on their bodies, ghosts still stubbornly remaining in the mansion make unpleasant noises, and corpses completely skeletal emerge from under the bed.
To be honest, even if there was no abyss, it was a space where you couldn’t sleep normally.
“Hmm, things are going well here too.”
Looking around the second floor, I saw the command golem Cernut moving around busily, organizing each room on the second floor.
As I was looking into the space that I thought was my room in my mind, I briefly turned my eyes to the room next to it.
“Hmm… … But what should I do with this kid? … .”
Heo Sang-hyun is sleeping in this room.
A ghost golem is busy cleaning up the room, but Heo Sang-hyun is asleep without any movement.
To what extent… … So much so that I can’t even breathe.
A complexion as pale as a corpse, deep darkness around the eyes, and an intuitive feeling of death.
I used my magic power for a moment to check Heo Sang-hyeon’s condition.
[System: The effect of Tianxianjinqi is in effect.
// Cheon Seon Jin-gi: Automatically casts the ‘Healing Meditation’ spell on the designated target and increases the effect of rest by 100%.]
In reality, he was dead a long time ago.
It is a soul forced into a body by the power of necromancy.
Now, the mirror hanging around his neck is forcibly preventing his soul from reaching Buddhahood.
Although it is not alive, it is also difficult to say that it is completely dead.
“I can’t sleep without it.”
A famous scene that prevents Heo Sang-hyeon from attaining Buddhahood.
If I want to sleep comfortably, I need that, not tidying up my room.
The reason I made that mirror in the first place was not to let Heo Sang-hyeon sleep like this.
This was to prevent nightmares from recurring every night.
What should I do? Should I just have a cool nightmare today?
Or would it be better to diligently create a new replacement product from now on?
