Chapter 327: They Can Divide Themselves Too? (1/2)
[Searching ancient ruins: Elven SIN (Synchronized Intellect Nation)]
[Quest: Three thousand years ago, the high elves who were still ruling all land were suddenly wiped out, the Mysteries in their legacies lost. Now, however, you have inadvertently stumbled upon certain secrets they once held, just as you had determined that an ancient ruin belonging to the high elves is present near Crookes.
Find that lost world for a glimpse into the nation where the elves integrated all sentient beings. Under the guidance of your wise and powerful god, you shall embark on the journey in search of those ruins.]
(Quest objectives: (This quest will be shared to all Players) Search and confirm the location of the entrance to the ancient ruins the high elves had left behind.]
(Quest rewards: Certain amount of EXP]
[Note 1: It is recommended to have a wood elf as a strategist in search of the entrance due to the cultural difference between high elves and humans]
[Note 2: Event ‘Ancient Arcanum: Elven SIN’ will be unlocked upon quest completion]

“Looks like we really hit the jackpot this time…” Marni muttered quietly even as he read the System page and left a comment that read ‘Thanks for the invite, I’m already present on the scene’ on the Player forums which was already in an uproar.

In the first place, he had only come to try getting better equipment, especially since the ones he had at the moment were falling behind in level. In fact, he would have sold them off if each item wasn’t kept relevant thanks to their +7 stats.
He certainly didn’t expect to stumble into such a mystery and start a large-scale side quest.
Even though the quest reward appeared measly since it only gives EXP for rewards, Marni knew that the real rewards wouldn’t be equally poor once the event kicks off.
Moreover, there could well be hidden rewards given in the side quest itself.
Indeed, he could compromise by assuming that there won’t be any rewards in the side quest. Even then, having completed it would definitely secure him an advantage of some extent in the subsequent event.
Meanwhile, the elven queen watched as the Players fell silent at the same time, and then vaguely realized something.
“Ultimately, the high elves are the precursors to us wood elves—if you don’t mind, would you allow Trinia to join you in your effort?” She offered.
Pausing, she then added, “You may set your minds at ease, as I would only be sending some of our people to observe and collect information. They would not interfere as long as your side does not blaspheme against the Moon God.”
Edward, who was hesitating how he should request assistance couldn’t help breathing a sigh of relief at the elven queen’s offer. “Thank you. I was just thinking that we need your strength in helping to accomplish our goal.”
Beside him, Marni’s merchant instincts almost made him barter to see if he could get more out of it. He was naturally left upset as his words were stuck in his throat after Edward agreed to the elven queen’s offer before he could.
Still, he knew that Edward wasn’t doing anything wrong when he thought about it.
