Episode 545 Ancient Dragon’s Rare (2)
Appearance is poor on the outside.
No one would understand why the old, broken jewelry box is here.
That’s probably why Pendragon left it next to the pile of gold instead of keeping it in a separate display case.
still.
‘I felt a strange sense of magical power and seeing that it was stored in a treasure trove, I have a pretty good feeling about it anyway.’
The empty jewelry box had more value than it seemed.
The corner of Jinhyuk’s mouth twitched violently.
Because it was difficult to hold back the laughter that burst out from within.
Clues about the ‘Necronomicon’.
This jewelry box was one of them.
It also allows you to know the most important ‘location’.
‘Let’s see… .’
Jinhyuk carefully placed his hand on the box.
I could feel the texture of the rough wood.
[You have selected ‘Unknown Box’.]
A fairly delicate process is required to see the true appearance of this box.
Not only can one make a mistake in distributing magic power appropriately, but one mistake cannot be tolerated in unsealing the box.
‘Press this part… After turning here… .’
Slam! click!
The racks of the jewel box kept turning.
The shape of the box began to change along with the natural flow of water.
[The ‘Unknown Box’ is opened.]
[A map to the ‘Primeval Forest’ comes to mind.]
A picture of a snake biting its tail.
A tangled maze of Ouroboros emerged along the surface of the box.
‘I didn’t expect to get this here… This will make securing the Necronomicon much easier.’
It’s truly an unexpected coincidence.
This alone more than surpassed all other benefits.
Now you can choose items with peace of mind.
Jinhyuk leisurely walked through the treasure warehouse and looked through items filled with memories.
How long has it been like that?
Finally, the long shopping day is over.
‘Iron powder imbued with the blood of an ancient dragon.’
‘Spear that drinks lightning’.
‘Arch Lich’s Grimoire’.
‘The last drop of water from Atlantis’.
A total of four were selected.
Various items that will be helpful in climbing the tower and dealing with gods in the future have also been selected and stored separately.
“I think this is enough, but how did you choose everything?”
Jinhyuk looked at Ellis next to him.
“Umm… “Umm.”
Ellis was still groaning and collecting treasures.
Anyway, the greed is like a mountain.
I guess I could come again next time anyway, but it seems like I want to take everything with me when I come here.
If you leave it alone, you’ll end up spending three days and nights shopping, so it might be a good idea to draw a line here.
The linked quest to find ‘Traces of Igni’ on the 33rd floor is not yet over.
The task of mediating a truce between Olympus and Ragnarok could no longer be postponed.
Although I tried to restrain Thor and Loki as much as possible, my patience was running out as time went by.
“Ellis?”
“Now, wait a moment. 1 hours… No, just 30 more minutes.”
“no.”
“Then just for 10 minutes!”
Ellis clung to her, almost crying.
“10 minutes. “I’ll be waiting outside, so follow me quickly.”
“huh!”
Jinhyeok came out of the treasure trove, leaving behind a brightly smiling Ellis.
“Are you finished now?”
Helberg, who was waiting outside, bowed his head politely.
“I have some work to do, so I’ll end it today. Please take good care of this place while I am away. Soon, I will be sending my friends from my original base here as well, so please find a way to get into this rare. “When it comes to money, you can take whatever you have in the warehouse and spend it.”
Strengthening the base on the 46th floor.
This too was a task that could not be put off.
“All right. “Let’s take action right away.”
“Okay then… . ah! right.”
Jinhyuk paused for a moment before taking a step.
Things were going so hectic that I forgot, but I needed to know why Helberg, who had been so belligerent at first, suddenly changed his attitude.
‘There’s no way he knew I killed Pendragon. If that were the case, I would have surrendered a long time ago.’
The ancient dragon guardians I dealt with in the past had extremely closed personalities.

Because of this, I was insensitive to outside news.
However, the sudden change in Helberg’s attitude means that something variable has arisen in the meantime.
“Is there someone else in this rare right now?”
There is only one conceivable number of cases.
Helberg kept his mouth shut in response to Jinhyuk’s question.
“… … .”
Rick had asked me not to tell anyone that he was here.
However, orders from the new owner and requests from senior managers.
If you put two things on the scale, it’s already been decided which one you should choose.
“The person who gave me the information was Rick Hennessy. “I am a senior manager at the tower.”
“Rick… Hennessy.”
Jinhyuk pondered the name heavily.
Why did a senior manager come here at this exact moment?
It is an absurd probability to say it is simply a coincidence.
“What did Rick say he was here for?”
“Like my master, I said I would like to see some of the treasures in Lair. He said there was one thing he wanted and offered to buy or exchange it. What did you say? They said it wasn’t a special relic or artifact, but rather an item of little value… .”
“… … !”
There is only one thing in this rare that Rick, the owner of the caravan, is interested in.
It’s just a ‘jewel box’.
And the fact that they are aiming for the same thing as this… .
‘Rick… Was it somehow related to ancient beings?’
Jinhyuk put together the events so far like a puzzle.
***
33rd floor refloor.
The members of Goinmul Corporation, including Jinhyuk and Ellis, gathered in one place for a long time.
“late. Obviously, we were supposed to meet an hour ago… !”
Cheon Yu-seong, who was waiting at the cafe, frowned.
Iced cafe lattes have already run out for a long time. I even ate the crystal cake I ordered for dessert.
“Oh my goodness. Mr. Jinhyuk! Mr. Ellis! “It’s here!”
On the other hand, Teresa waved happily.
“I’m sorry, he was so absorbed in shopping like a child who saw a toy… . “It was late because I had to force myself to bring it.”
“Jim, when did you start acting like a child?!”
Ellis screamed loudly.
Still, I’m glad I know that it’s embarrassing.
“by the way. What chain quest did you choose? Looking at the free time, it looks like something quite useful is in progress… . Even so, it won’t be better than what I chose.”
“Well, it’s nothing special, it’s a Red Flame linked quest. “I’m looking for traces of Igni.”
“The red flame… By any chance, you mean that hidden quest?”
Cheon Yu-seong’s pupils dilated rapidly.
One of the few top hidden quests on the 33rd floor.
I wondered who had unlocked it, but that damned bastard had found it.
[SS Class – Sky Slash]
A special quest that only those who have transcended the level of the sword can succeed.
The goal is to cut down the crystal-covered sky of Reflor through a combination of magic engineering and swordsmanship.
Even though it wasn’t a hidden link, I managed to reach the end of the quest after going through several high-difficulty quests.
It all became futile.
This is because no matter how much you try, regular SS-level quests cannot compare to Hidden.
Grumbling.
This time too.
… … This time we fell behind again.
No matter what type of match was played, the result was the same every time.
The reality is that no matter how hard you try, it is impossible to achieve a single victory.
‘No matter how hard I try… ‘Are you saying it’s useless?’
The feeling of despair was so hard to bear.
Right then.
Jinhyuk spoke quietly.
“under… But the level of difficulty has increased so much that I don’t know what to do next. The idea is to control the flow of fire and find traces of Igni left on the cliff, but does that even make sense in the first place? What’s left on the cliff looks like a sword mark, but haha… My head hurts. “No matter how many times I see it, I still can’t get it.”
“Are you saying you couldn’t find a way too?”
“huh. “It’s not enough for me.”
Jinhyuk shook his head and let out a deep sigh.
On the other hand, Cheon Yu-seong’s face changed 180 degrees from before.
Also controlling the flow of fire.
It is also possible to identify the engraved sword marks through that.
It was possible for me.
Unlike Jinhyeok, who was an all-rounder, he originally pursued a path that specialized in swords.
‘If I find this out, it will prove that I am better than that guy.’
The worries didn’t last long.
“under… ! You can’t even do that and still challenge the hidden quest. Guide me to the cliff where the sword marks are. “I will personally look into it and resolve it.”
“Well, it’s really difficult and even on the 33rd floor, it’s in a very rough area. “It’s not easy to even get there.”
“Do I look like a pretty decent guy in your eyes?”
“That’s not it… Are you sure you’ll be okay?”
“No problem.”
Cheon Yu-seong raised his head confidently.
good.
With this, I gained the No. 1 reliable slave.
This may be a new thing to say, but I wonder if there is another idiot who can be manipulated so easily.
If you just gently touch their pride, they will move on their own.
“Wow, I guess we’ll all get together after a long time.”
Teresa also expressed her intention to join.
“How about you two? are you okay?”
“Well, if Yooseong and Teresa come, I’d be most welcome.”
“I agree too. If you have to complete the chain quest anyway, the more support you have, the better.”
Lee Tae-min and Yoo Yeon-hwa also expressed their approval.
“My luggage is fine too.”
Even Ellis agreed, and the Goinmul Corporation’s linked quest began.
***
A cliff located on the outside of the 33rd floor.
The sculpture of Mother Nature, which is several kilometers high, made people express their admiration just by looking at it.
In particular, the gently spreading fog at the top and the beautiful birds flying through it created a spectacle worthy of a myth.
However, what stands out the most is the sword marks drawn left and right along the cliff.
And there were fireworks softly blooming around them.
[The hidden chain quest ‘Traces of Igni’ has been discovered.]
[Through these traces, find out what happened in the past.]
[If you get the correct clue, you will be able to glimpse memories of the past.]
The messy sword marks and irregular flames make it impossible to guess its whereabouts.
Judging by the huge craters left in the middle, one can only guess that there was a fierce battle.
“How do you know?”
“It’s definitely difficult. “This is the first time I’ve seen such extreme herbivory.”
“Hey, it looks like you don’t know either. “Even though he was the world’s greatest swordsman, he was only at the player level.”
Jinhyeok clicked his tongue with an expression that said, ‘That’s right.’
“Damn it. Just stay here and watch quietly. “I will prove that I am better than you.”
Cheon Yu-seong stood in the front.
Sreung!
He pulled out his sword and slowly began to move along the trail on the cliff.
[Cheon Yu-seong activates his unique ability ‘Sword Song’!]
Flames gathered and scattered along the blade.
… … soft.
Obviously, this is the first time Cheon Yu-seong has seen it.
The ability to read past sword strikes and recreate Igni’s battle was as if he had actually experienced it.
‘That guy is a real genius too.’
The problem is that they try to attack you all the time. If not for that, he would be an extremely reliable colleague.
Right then.
[Your understanding of the battlefield increases slightly!]
[Some conditions have been met.]
[The sword’s trajectory and the remaining flames look back on the past.]
[The war in mythology is recreated!]
Everyone’s vision turned black.
And when I opened my eyes again.
The previously visible scenery was completely different.
fantasy, game,
