Episode 239: Goblin Country -4-
Flowerpot.
A treasure chest with infinite treasures.
The goblins opened their eyes wide.
“How does Mr. Kim know that?”
“Where did you hear that?”
“I hid it from King Jeongjo and that old man Dasan!”
Where did you hear that?
I heard it in the game.
Seong Hee-young listened calmly and then asked.
“A flowerpot? Does that actually exist?”
“Of course. There must be a race that has it not only among the goblins here, but also among other races.”
“I thought the goblin bat was a water fountain. I heard that the goblin bat has copying powers.”
“Because copying ability has its limits. Water fountain has no limits.”
The goblin bat is pretty good.
But can you copy paid items like nectar or ambrosia?
What about the elixir of resurrection?
does not exist.
But the water fountain is different.
It wasn’t released after Episode 7 for nothing.
By then, there was so much nectar that duplicating the paid item Ambrosia had become meaningless.
“Mr. Kim… … .”
Danggoma said groaningly.
“The water lily is destined to bring ruin. Do you know that?”
There are not only advantages to having a water fountain.
The world is such that if you get one, you have to give one.
Of course, there are also disadvantages.
The fateful destruction that Danggo-ma spoke of.
A bad luck gauge implemented in the game.
Every time you use a water fountain, your bad luck gauge goes up.
The more you copy and create rare treasures, the more you rise.
When the bad luck gauge is full, literal fateful doom will strike.
Or a dragon suddenly attacks.
You suddenly get teleported and fall into a field with an incredibly high level.
One piece of equipment breaks completely.
A sudden surge of magical power occurs, rendering the character unusable for over a year of game time.
Like this.
“it’s okay.”
Oh, it doesn’t matter.
I said it with all my heart.
On the one hand, I see one trait shining in my heart.
“I can avoid that misfortune.”
[Reverse]
It is because of this very characteristic.
The effect of reversal is to nullify the law.
The flowerpot’s bad luck gauge is no exception.
I also had a lot of fun playing the game.
Copying nectar, copying ambrosia, copying everything.
Although the cooldown is long, it is not unusable.
There is only one drawback.
Only wealth can be copied, but magic cannot be copied.
Even if you put in a magic weapon, the magic weapon is not copied, but only a material in the shape of the weapon pops out.
If you put in a silent sword, only silent iron comes out.
“Can you avoid it? Really?”
“yes.”
“Really? You’re not joking, are you? You shouldn’t ignore bad luck. It wouldn’t be strange if you fell into a dimensional rift.”
“Don’t worry. I know everything and I’m telling you.”
“hmm…….”
Danggoma looks back at the goblins.
The goblins nodded.
“Mr. Kim is so smart! He must have thought of everything!”
“That’s right, that’s right. Since he’s a legendary Kim Seo-bang, he’ll take care of it himself!”
“This is Mr. Kim who helped me find the Manpasikjeok!”
“Because it’s Mr. Kim who liberated us!”
“Let’s run! Let’s run!”
“You should at least give them some water!”
Soon the goblins came dancing and carrying the palanquin.
A small jar is placed on top of the pot.

A size that fits perfectly in one hand.
It was exactly like what I saw in the game.
“Mr. Kim. Do you really need to be careful? If you handle it wrong, it’ll be a big problem, a big problem.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
“Master Geomseong? The water fountain is good, but wouldn’t it have been better to receive land instead? No matter how much I think about it, the Goblin’s bat and its abilities overlap. Even if it’s a sub-dimension, half of the Republic of Korea’s power is incredible.”
Seong Hee-young smacked her lips as if it was a waste.
Even if I receive it, it’s mine, so why do you feel sorry?
I’ve revealed a little bit of the power of the water fountain.
“Half the land of the Goblin Kingdom is huge, yes. But it’s not as much as a thousand bottles of nectar.”
“Huh? Nectar? Why is nectar here?”
“This. You can also make nectar or ambrosia with it.”
“Huh?”
“It’s possible to set up a nectar factory.”
“Huh!”
Only then does Seong Hee-young open her eyes.
The same goes for Director Kim and other superhumans.
I can’t take my eyes off my flower pot, mouth open.
Oh no. That won’t work.
Where are you looking?
Let’s quickly put them in the golf bag. Only then did everyone come to their senses.
“Somehow, I understand why Your Majesty wanted a water fountain.”
“If I just make nectar and sell it… … Oh my!”
“If you can create without any restrictions, wouldn’t you be a rising star in the financial world?”
“The top five conglomerates will soon become the top six.”
I have no intention of selling nectar right now.
I have to start by making the amount I’m going to use.
Haven’t you earned a lot of money in the meantime?
That’s because level 8 is right in front of you.
A large quantity of nectar was needed, not one or two bottles, but a huge quantity, enough to fill a magic bath.
When it reached level 7, it ended with one Gaia’s Blessing.
The experience points kept increasing and I reached 100%.
How about level 8?
Poka was blessed, but it was still a long way off.
But that doesn’t mean I should go find Thor and Gaia.
Osiris or Shiva? Amaterasu?
I have to meet them.
Perhaps Osiris will be hostile to me.
Because of work I have to do in Egypt soon.
The answer is nectar bath.
In the game, nectar increases experience points just by drinking it, but also causes side effects such as increased magic power.
I also had a hard time in the beginning.
To reduce side effects, you can make it into a magic solution and let it absorb into your skin.
It’s a bit of a hassle, but it’s worth it if you have the money.
“If you ever need to sell nectar, please do so. I’ll buy it at a reasonable price.”
“Yes. I will take care of production, and Chairman Seong will take care of distribution. If the conditions are right, I will be happy to take over.”
“Deal?”
“Deal!”
Seonghee Young and I lightly bumped fists.
Then, Director Kim gives a follow-up message from behind.
Seong Hee-young smiled once and then hardened her face with a serious expression.
“If we’re going to do business together in the future, we’ll have to do the math right? Even though our group’s headquarters was destroyed this time, we’ve made a lot of profit thanks to you, Geomseong. We’ve acquired a lot of land, resource mining rights, and even exclusive trade rights… … I’ll have to pay Geomseong a brokerage fee as well.”
Brokerage fee?
Something I wasn’t expecting at all.
“If you give it to me, I will be grateful.”
“First, I’ll give you a building in Gangnam. I heard Jeonsa Security and Jeonsa Construction each have their own office building, right? But since it’s hard for you to use them personally, it would be good to have something similar.”
You’re giving me real estate?
The Jeon Sa Construction building that the old man gave me.
This is the building that the Eastern Army Corps Commander recently received and the Soldiers Security Team has just moved into.
One more similar to that?
You’re saying they’re giving us a building worth at least a hundred billion won?
Humility comes naturally and I bow my head.
“Oh, thank you. For all this.”
“That’s how important our relationship is to you, Mr. Geumseong. I hope that our relationship will continue to be constructive and progressive.”
“Of course. I have high expectations too.”
A future comrade who will fight like the old father’s sect.
It would be better to manage it in advance.
“By the way. What happened to the decipherment of the documents that were discovered under the Han River a while ago?”
“Oh, that one.”
Seong Hee-young frowned and shook her head.
“They say it’s difficult to decipher because the code itself is sealed with a special power. They’re using the group’s supercomputer to decipher it, but it’ll take a long time.”
“Is that so… … .”
It looks like it’s been doubled or tripled for security.
It’s not just a password.
It must be sealed by the power of the Dark Jaguar.
In the ciphertext itself, in the characters themselves, and in the meaning itself.
In fact, since this is a matter involving divine beings, it can be easily resolved by simply telling the priests to come forward.
Don’t you know that Seong Hee-young?
You may have already noticed that the seal of the password was created by magic or divine power.
There must be a reason why it isn’t solved.
I smelled it.
An ugly and foul smell.
“I’ll take a look later when I have time.”
“Okay. Sir, you have shown miraculous results several times, so I’m sure you’ll show us a miracle in deciphering the code too. I’ll be looking forward to it.”
Look at that.
Let me tell you, you accept it right away.
As if I was just waiting for you to say that.
“Hmm, hmm.”
As the work was almost finished, Choi Seon-su stepped forward.
“Your Majesty, it’s been a while since you came back to Korea. Why don’t you take a look at our building? The size of our security and construction is constantly growing these days.”
I’m also listening to the business report.
Following the redevelopment of Guro-dong, they also won the redevelopment of Daerim-dong, Geumcheon-gu, and Gwanak-gu.
The National Security Agency is periodically stabilizing public security in the three regions of Guro-gu, Geumcheon-gu, and Gwanak-gu.
I heard that the underworld organization has been almost wiped out?
In times like these, I need to sit down and take the weight.
I looked at Choi Seon-su and made an apologetic expression.
“I have to go back again.”
“Yes? Where?”
“This time, Egypt. I have something to take care of.”
“Ha… … Your Majesty, aren’t you being too cosmopolitan? Even though you are my lord, it’s too hard to see your face.”
“Director Choi, please understand. You know my situation.”
“Yeah, I know. I tried complaining once.”
It’s not that Director Choi’s face isn’t good.
My skin, which was once shiny after drinking the elixir, is now severely damaged.
Her eyes are full of dark circles and wrinkles.
Well, you suddenly called me in today and made me do something, so how could you?
I usually do all the construction and security operations by myself.
They pay a lot of money, but the salary alone isn’t enough.
‘yes.’
I rummaged through my golf bag and took out a gold club.
Pat pat.
I knocked on Director Choi’s door with a hammer.
A healing artifact that is comparable to an elixir, the Golden Scepter.
Director Choi’s face immediately lit up.
Your face will become clear and your skin will look like a baby.
As a bonus, my once sparse hair has grown thicker.
“omg!”
Choi Seon-su also felt it and touched his head and face.
“Hey, Your Majesty. Can I write it like this?”
“So what? It’s mine.”
I thought about it for a moment and then handed the gold medal over to Choi Seon-su.
“Your Majesty? This is… … .”
“It’s a bonus. Take it.”
“Huh?”
“Do you know what it is? Whenever you feel tired, just pat me on the back. Then, all your fatigue will disappear.”
“Hey, Your Majesty… … .”
Choi Seon-su is unable to speak for a moment.
Seong Hee-young stared at me.
“You love your subordinates very much?”
“Director Choi is doing everything I can, so I should give him this much. There was something like that last time… … If only Geumchuk had been there then, Director Choi wouldn’t have been taken to the intensive care unit.”
“Your Majesty!”
The best player is about to burst into tears.
It’s a gold mine. A gold mine.
An artifact with the ability to revive the dead and extend the lifespan of those whose lifespan has expired, similar to resurrection.
Even the conglomerates don’t have anything like this.
I patted Choi Seon-su’s shoulder, who was holding back tears.
“I would like to give you the owner and the jade tablet as well, but I have some use for them. If I no longer need them, I will give them to you as a bonus.”
“No! A merchant, a traitor! No, this is too much. I have already received my bonus twice in life. I will return it. My life is in danger if I keep this treasure!”
“What kind of guy dares? If anyone threatens or kidnaps you, sell my name. I guarantee that if you are captured, I will take responsibility for that guy and wipe out the Nine Clans. If you are confident, then go ahead and do it.”
“Your Majesty… … .”
“But still, pay attention to security. You know? I have many enemies. I only have one life, so hire as many bodyguards as possible. High-level superhumans. Got it?”
“Yes! I will be loyal!”
“Just do it like you are doing now. Just do it like you are doing now.”
Why am I able to just wander around like this now?
It’s all thanks to Choi Seon-su.
It would be a waste of money to keep this high-class slave.
The gold medal was originally given because of the zombie epidemic.
Because everything from prevention to treatment has already been completed.
From now on, you can just make elixirs using a water fountain.
“But I heard that your disciples will be entering the country soon. How about showing your faces?”
“When are you coming?”
“They’ll be back within this month. I heard that Janet and Carly have also reached level 6 in the Great Rift.”
“Those two too? They’re pretty good. What about the nectar?”
“I sent you what I had in storage.”
The growth is incredibly fast.
Almost the same speed as me.
It captures the starting characteristics very well.
Baek So-rin also shared her practical experience well.
Choi Seon-su looked at me and said.
“The disciples are looking forward to the teachings of the Master. Baek So-rin in particular.”
“Him? He needs more teaching… I guess. He’s just about to reach level 7.”
“Yes. Baek So-rin said the same thing.”
“Wait a minute. You’re saying that you’re just before level 7? Your disciple, Master Geomseong?”
Seong Hee-young makes a face of disbelief on the side.
I nodded my head heavily.
“All my disciples are like heaven. Similar to Woojin.”
“In fact, Chief Seo is also thirsty for the teachings of Master Geomseong.”
“I bet you learned a lot when you went to Goblin Land together… … Ah, I know what you mean.”
I have a feeling this is coming.
It feels like not only Baek So-rin, but also Seo Woo-jin, Janet, and Carly are all on the verge of reaching level 7.
The growth limit for SSR-grade is level 7.
If you teach him just a little bit, he can jump to level 7.
But not now.
now.
Because my level up is more urgent.
Once you reach level 8 and have the power to stand up to the Saintess, it’s time to teach your disciples.
Not only the disciples, but also Kim Cheol-kwon can be raised to level 6, and Kim Magic and Kim Sa-je can also be taken care of.
“Just give me a month.”
“A month?”
“Okay. I’ll see you at my house in a month. Tell the disciples, Director Kim, Magic, and the priests that too. Oh, and this too.”
He took out his magic weapons one by one from his golf bag.
Dragon armor set.
Arctic jewelry set.
Everyone swallowed their saliva as they saw a series of artifacts that looked expensive at first glance.
“Did Director Choi hear that too? He entrusted the dragon’s corpse to the Sun Tower and made a set of armor.”
“Yes. I heard it from Mr. Magic.”
“Give one of these to each of your disciples. Along with the accessories. They’ll probably be useful. Pass on the magic to Director Kim and the priest. I was thinking of giving it to Director Choi, but it’s a shame because it basically requires magical power to function properly.”
“Oh my, if you want this much, you’re a thief. I’m happy with just the golden sword that the Sword Master gave me.”
Choi Seon-su hugged Geum-cheok and made a happy expression.
Actually, that’s true.
Because one gold sword is more valuable than the entire armor set and accessory set combined.
“I don’t have any?”
Seong Hee-young suddenly intervened.
No, why the conglomerate chairman?
Even the Gold-Oh set is better than the Dragon’s Armor set.
This is because the materials are good, but in the end it is mass-produced.
“Ah… … I’ll give you a set as a gift.”
There are 7 people, including 4 disciples and 3 members of the Kim family.
There are 3 sets left.
You can give one set to Seong Hee-young.
Should I give the remaining two sets to someone else as gifts?
If you give it to the commander, he will like it even if he doesn’t use it himself.
“Thank you. If I find something good, I’ll share it with you.”
Seong Hee-young smiled brightly after receiving the armor set and accessory set.
Then, he puts on the North Pole necklace and the North Pole ring on the spot.
Director Kim and his security team quickly went into flattery mode.
“It suits you well, Chairman!”
“You suit me perfectly!”
“Haha. Thank you. Thank you for the pretty gift, too, Mr. Geomseong.”
“No. I also always receive help from the chairman.”
“I’d like to buy you a meal. What do you think?”
“Oh, that’s right… … .”
Seong Hee-young smiled openly.
Director Kim and the security team look at each other with expectant eyes.
Even the best players clenched their fists and cheered.
“How about putting that off for a month? I really don’t have time right now.”
Shorter gap between episodes.
Even now, the prophet’s ring was burning hot.
Because I’m equipped with a sixth sense and ears, the back of my neck is always stiff.
It’s a fight between me reaching level 8 first or the saintess moving first.
Seong Hee-young looked disappointed for a moment, then forced a smile.
“A month from now, right? You promised?”
“Yes, I promise.”
Seong Hee-young released me only after I got my finger stamped.
Go straight to the airport.
He took flight, piloting a supersonic private jet.
The destination is Egypt.
It is also the headquarters of the Osiris Cult.
Water property.
Spirit born.
From the African continent.
It was a country where the fallen river goddess lived.
