Episode 425 Undersea city ‘Atlantis’ (1)
Thousand Year Conch.
If I had to choose the most realistic way to get to Atlantis, it would definitely be using this.
Originally, there were some things that needed to be prepared, but once the Spear of Atlantis was obtained, it was as if everything was resolved.
“So, if I ask a question here, it will tell me how?”
Cheon Yu-seong asked with a suspicious look in his eyes.
“Well, the mysterious Millennium Conch can answer anything.”
“It’s ridiculous. It’s not a kid’s joke.”
“Uh huh. If you don’t believe me, ask.”
At Jinhyeok’s continued urging, Cheon Yuseong reluctantly opened his mouth.
“Tell me the way to Atlantis.”
OK.
The thousand-year conch trembled.
“Only the noble and strong can go there. You can’t.”
The words that came out were close to a dry mechanical sound.
However, it was the kind that scratched people’s insides.
“W-what?”
Cheon Yu-seong’s expression suddenly crumpled.
Naturally, I couldn’t help but be astonished since the conch lying around on the beach was saying to my face that it wasn’t noble.
“Puhaha! Eup… I, I didn’t laugh. Look, I have a serious expression.”
Only Jinhyuk, who was next to him, burst into laughter and had a hard time controlling his expression.
Wow!
Cheon Yu-seong bit his molars and opened his mouth again.
“Tell me the way to Atlantis right now.”
“No. You are not qualified.”
“…….”
Sreung!
Ryu Hwa expressed his anticipation.
However, just as he was about to swing his sword.
[If you destroy the ‘Millennium Conch’, you will receive a penalty.]
A red message appeared in the way.
Having experienced the Tower of Trials so far, if you ignore the red status messages, you will definitely have to pay the price.
“Ugh!”
Cheon Yu-seong barely managed to retract his half-drawn sword.
“I think I will listen to the words of a noble and strong person.”
Ellis stepped forward confidently.
“Tell me, where are the lowly fish living?”
The matriarch of Ataraxia.
One of the absolute figures of the tower, who possesses both honor and strength, gave this command.
however.
“I don’t know.”
The answer that came back was the same.
Still speaking in a dry tone.
“Now…are you saying that you don’t even have enough luggage?”
“It’s a place where little kids aren’t allowed to enter.”
“Little kid?”
“Yes, a 7-year-old kid. Seeing that he’s upset, I guess he hit a bone. But, it’s true.”
“Aaaah! It’s not enough for the idiot saintess to ignore me, so now she’s treating me like a little kid, like a damn seashell? If only I could go back to the way I was…!”
Ellis, whose anger was so intense, ran wild.
also… .
This is why millennium conchs are difficult to handle.
It’s not that they completely ignored me, but I also didn’t give them a proper answer.
Above all, they could not threaten to destroy it as long as there was a penalty.
Unless you have something beyond the penalty.
I looked at the Spear of Atlantis that Jinhyuk had stuck in the white sand.
‘If it weren’t for this, I would have had a hard time collecting ingredients.’
Although Wolyoung was searching the interior of the island, it was unclear how long it would take to find all the ingredients she wanted.
“Millennium Conch. We are not going to enslave or harm the mermaids. Rather, we are trying to help them.”
Jinhyuk came out last.
“So answer me.”
To stop the Kraken.
For everyone on the stairs to survive.
This meeting must happen.
“you….”
A mechanical sound came from the thousand-year conch.
“You can’t do it because you’re ugly.”
“…….”
This bastard… .

Jinhyuk barely managed to maintain his composure.
The mouth was smiling, but the eyes were not smiling.
“J-Jim thinks that a contractor would be very handsome…”
“I think the standards of beauty are a bit wrong. I agree with Millennium Conch.”
“You… are manly. Yes.”
“Hahaha. Oppa is not the handsome guy type.”
A variety of reactions followed.
Most of the words were just hurtful words.
okay. I thought it would be like this.
“It’s an exorcism.”
“mosquito!”
“Eat it up.”
“Mogi!”
Like a wild beast stalking its prey. The sweet potato jumped towards the thousand-year conch.
“If you eat me….”
Misreading. Oh my gosh!
The sweet potato mercilessly broke the skin and bit into the jewel inside.
Then at that very moment.
Tiring! Tiring! Tiring!
[‘The Thousand Year Conch’ has been destroyed!]
A red status window filled the sky.
The thousand-year conch is one of the spiritual beasts considered sacred by one race.
Doing so meant turning the entire race into enemies.
* * *
“What are you doing? You said you needed the mermaids’ help…!”
Cheon Yu-seong shouted in surprise.
“I tried to do that too, but he was scratching his head, right?”
Even if I had just obediently told them the location, this wouldn’t have happened.
I didn’t have time to ask questions for 1,000,000 years.
“And to be honest, weren’t you cool on the inside too?”
Calm down from the corner of your mouth that is twitching and say something.
Because it looks like a thousand-year-old congestion has disappeared.
“Big. That’s what it says. What happens now?”
What happens?
[The anger of the 29th floor ‘Mermaid Race’ is directed at Stagnant Water Corporation!]
This is how it happens.
Bubbling.
Bubbles rose all at once from the sea.
Not one or two, but dozens.
Judging from his magical energy, he must be quite angry.
Immediately dozens of mermaids appeared.
“The humans…now they can’t cross the line and are struggling to be killed!”
The beautiful-looking mermaid was furious.
Before I knew it, a strong energy of the water attribute condensed from the arrow I was aiming at.
It seemed as if countless arrows were heading towards the coast at any moment.
“If you want to fight, tell me. I will wipe out everyone.”
Ellis summoned a skewer.
Taemin Lee and Yeonhwa Yeonhwa are also ready to move at any time.
but.
“No. Killing mermaids is out of the question.”
I don’t know about the Millennium Conch, but if you harm a mermaid, a war will break out between the Stagwater Corporation and the mermaid race.
Of course, in order to prevent that, we need to provide a ‘reason’ to quell the mermaids’ anger.
for example… .
It’s like showing the queen’s spear that was lost for a long time.
Sigh!
Jinhyuk pulled out the Spear of Atlantis that was stuck in the white sand.
“……!? Now, wait a minute. Stop shooting!”
The mermaid who was about to give the order to attack stopped on the spot.
There’s no way you wouldn’t know.
How could you not know?
A holy relic that made that glory possible long ago, when mermaids ruled the 29th floor.
Ellis wants to restore the honor of the Ataraxia family. Just like Cheon Yu-seong hopes for one damn win.
If you had to choose what mermaids want the most, this spear would be at the top.
Even though it was just a one-time, deteriorated version, it shouldn’t be a problem as long as you act well.
“Are you still going to attack me like this?”
“Uh, how… you guys did that….”
“Isn’t the acquisition process important now? Besides, if you saw this, wouldn’t the order be to lower the bow first?”
“…let go of the protests.”
“Leader?”
“It’s an order!”
“Oh, I understand.”
At the words of the female mermaid, the remaining mermaids softened their hostility.
good. Now I can finally have a conversation in a more comfortable atmosphere.
“It’s true that the first image started off a little bad, but let’s gradually resolve the misunderstanding.”
“Are you planning to pass it off as a misunderstanding when I broke the thousand-year conch?”
“This was the only way to contact you as quickly as possible. Also, if they attacked, you were the first. There was a mermaid who shot an arrow at us while we were sailing.”
“That’s because you might be in the same league as those who took us as slaves….”
“So, those things are misunderstandings.”
I have no intention of going over every little detail from the past.
Because what was important was the future, not the past.
“What do you want?”
“I want to have an audience with the queen.”
“That’s a far-fetched story.”
“If you want to get the spear, you’re going to have to do something crazy.”
“…I understand. Instead, you must be the only one who can go.”
“Contractor! You have to say no to that condition.”
When told that she had to go alone, Ellis immediately protested.
“It’s okay. I was planning on going alone from the beginning anyway. You guys go to the guild… no, go help Teresa.”
By now, the fleets of allied guilds must be fiercely fighting against Gigantdalos.
The Gandhara Guild, which was one of the most reliable forces, is unable to provide proper help as it is fighting against Casey and Jude Law.
Moreover, now that Nirasha has died, the organization’s power must have completely disintegrated.
“Are you sure you’ll be okay?”
“Don’t worry. I’ll be back before the Kraken comes out.”
Jinhyuk smiled brightly.
* * *
Boggle!
Bubbles enveloped a huge chariot pulled by a pair of seahorses.
“Humans have a hard time breathing underwater, so you can just sit here. These children are very difficult to handle, so stay calm behind them….”
“Yeah, yeah. They’re well-behaved kids.”
Jinhyuk stood on the chariot and pulled the reins.
So familiar.
The seahorses moved left and right in response to Jinhyuk’s touch.
It was a first-time sight even for mermaids to see them licking their whole bodies and even showing cuteness.
“…….”
The mermaids opened their mouths in a daze.
I didn’t know that I had mastered ‘Mentra Taming’, ‘Communion’, and above all, all the vehicles that exist in the Tower of Trials, so of course I couldn’t help but feel dumbfounded.
Just like that, Jinhyeok and the mermaids began to move.
Rapidly changing vision.
Seahorses moving at high speeds headed deeper and deeper into the sea.
After about 30 minutes, a large mermaid spoke to me.
“I don’t think he’s an ordinary human, but he seems surprisingly sloppy.”
“Hmm. Are you saying I’m sloppy?”
“That’s right. If this is all a trap, if we’re not going to Atlantis but just somewhere in the deep sea, what do you plan on doing? We can kill you here and just retrieve the spear.”
Well, that is one way.
“If you can do it yourself.”
Jinhyuk released some of his magical power.
Parts… .
‘Grave of the Sword’ and ‘Blood Demon’.
A vicious and murderous spirit bloomed.
It is a dark and ominous magical power that I have never encountered anywhere before.
In an instant, the atmosphere froze.
The mermaids, who tried to gain the upper hand by floating, could not even breathe properly.
I think I was too scared.
Jinhyuk changed the mood and changed the topic.
“I don’t plan on fighting, so you don’t have to be scared. By the way, I didn’t know your name the whole time.”
“It is called Lepitia an Drakaonmia the Artanmir.”
Some unnecessarily long and verbose name popped out.
“Are all mermaids’ names that long?”
“Because in order to express nobility, you need an appropriate modifier.”
“Then, the queen’s name…?”
“Yes, it is Matametio le Palladion Dria ca Masiastirs VII.”
and… .
This is becoming more and more outrageous.
How on earth do you remember all that?
I don’t know if he’s a genius or something. No matter how many times you listen to it, you’ll forget it.
“It’s too long to remember, but can we change it to our own style?”
“Humans have a hard time calling us. So what name do you plan to call us?”
Even if you listen to it just once, it gets stuck in your mind… A name that brings out the characteristics of a mermaid.
Something passed through Jinhyeok’s mind like lightning.
