234 # 221 Wantwork Relief and Breakthrough.txt (1/2)
The next morning, I don't sleep well. I try to sleep, but that raven-ma-tengu smile comes to mind, and when I close my eyes to think of something else, I see the change in the fox-ko on my eyelids... and this is the result.
I washed my face, made breakfast, and ate. I drink my coffee, let go of my sleep, and log into the game.
Then the email rush. This is something!
I leave the room and go downstairs to find the usual crew.
'You're late!'
The first voice is this... at any rate, after getting an explanation, it seems that yesterday's skeleton rider attack and the draugr beast happened in other countries as well.
The Draugle Beast apparently appeared in the Reich Empire and Vaneleaf. In both cases, the players tried to defeat them, but they couldn't defeat the Draugle Beast and had to be caged in.
And Wuntwerk seemed to have managed to fight off the skeleton riders, but they were damaged. Moreover, the zombie main force seems to be on its way.
It seems that the one-towork thought they couldn't protect him and called on the surrounding countries for help. Naturally, Freetia is also on its way.
'Princess Sara-sama asked us to rescue the wontowork.
He wants to help somehow because Wantwerk is one of the few countries that accepts subracial people.
”The reward is a silver weapon for us... to help us complete our quest.
Well, in that case, I'd have to go.
'How do you get there? You can't use the warp gate, can you?
But there will be a griffon, right?
Mug! ...Lesser Gryphon. What can I say, you'll be pissed off.
'No, I'm sure I am, but... anyone else besides me...'
Clear!
Oh my God... then Luke asks me.
'I mean, Tact-san, how many summoned beasts are there in the third evolution?'
'Well... if you take out the composite summons, that's 13.
Too many!
That's not what I'm talking about... this is what happens when you're on an adventure. Then Tristan-san asks me something that I can't help but wonder about.
'I wonder if Liqueur and Darley-chan are evolving?'
I do. The liqueur is Monoceros and Darley is a red rabbit horse.
The Red Hare?
Well, you'd be surprised... or Tyrol asks.
'Mr. Tact, what's the mofo?'
Byakuya and Yu Fang are in trouble.
Summon me!
They all ask for it, but Mr. Lewin stops them.
'Yes, yes. 'The rescue of the wuntwork is the highest priority right now. Tact, will you be able to ride your horse?
'Ahhh...Darley's not equipped yet. You can ride the liqueur.
Do you think I can handle it?
'That's up to him... it seems they only take people who like either one of them on board... in any case, there's some corrosion, so I guess I'd better get on Hix.
Mr. Lewin agrees.
'You will... so can you do me a favor? Here's a permit for you, Mr. Tact.
Yes, sir.
So I get on Bran and Hix and breath on the three of them. Hix puts on a whirlwind and I use the warp gate to warp into Fast's town.
Sure enough, the warp is full of zombies. If I hadn't used the whirlwind, the zombies would have passed through the warp gate. I close the warp gate and aim for the one-towork.
But I'm chased by a horde of skullbats from behind. I asked Bran to come to me. I decided to ask him to show me his new skills.
''I understand. Let's go!''
Light falls from the sky as Bran raises his spear to the heavens. Is that a heavenly strike? Nothing seems to be working, but...
”Blowout!
Just as Bran did, a very thick beam of light falls from the sky to the surface of the earth. And then a huge explosion. The rotting zombies look like garbage.
''Uh...''
Bran pretended to be in pain for a moment.
'Are you okay?!'
It's okay... it's just a reaction to the technique.
Tenjutsu is very powerful, but the range of the move is obvious, the charge time of the move is long, and the recoil of the move seems to be its weak point. Also, it seems to take three days to reuse it.
It has many weaknesses, but it's still a powerful move. We arrived at the one-towork without a chase afterwards.
One-towork was a country lined with high-rise buildings. The city is not a city, but at least a rural city?
It's just that there were no walls in this country... it's going to be a bastion, or rather a cage building.
I can't just break in as it is, so I get off.
I showed the guards my permit and they hurriedly let me through. I checked the warp gate there and it was registered, so I let everyone through the warp gate.
'This is the wuntwork... I've seen images on the board, but it really does look a lot like reality...'
'Yes... it's a shame that this is going to be like Fast's town.
...What's going on in the town?
There's nothing left... and I think the corrosion took out the building.
By the looks of it, I was even wondering if the castle gate was really safe.
Anyway, I'll finish the quest now. As a result, we also got a silver weapon. I was given a silver ingot to use as an ingot. Now I have a gift for Hephaistos.
So the player who got the silver weapon says that this is a good way to win the game.
Mel asks.
''...What do you think, Tact-kun?''
Impossible. You provided us with a silver weapon, isn't that proof?
Even if you have silver weapons, you can't win, so you're calling for help.
I know what it's like to get an effective weapon and get excited about it, but silver weapons don't deal with corrosive... we can't fight properly unless we do something about it.
What should I do... I don't know if there is anything I can do to give the weapons breath or fix the corrosive...
Hmm? An item that can fix corrosion? I think I can handle that one!
When I return to Freetia, I ask Garou to borrow a corroded silver weapon.
Afterwards, I head to the hot springs. The water in the hot springs has an effect on my condition. Then what would happen to the corroded weapons if they were soaked in it?
As a result, it took some time, but the corroded silver weapon was restored to its former glory!
I didn't appraise it, but I put the hot spring water in a pot and appraise it.
Hot spring water: rarity level 4 Material Item Quality C
Auto-healing for 10 minutes, Auto-healing for 10 minutes of life force, Auto-healing for 10 minutes of magic
The effect is short-lived! Well, once the hot springs have cooled down, they lose their effectiveness...
Take the hot springs and consult with Hephaistos.
If you can pour it into the ditch like poison, it will work... for ten minutes.
'That's the point... hoarding has run out of effect, so I guess I can't...'
Well, at least there's a way to fix the corrosion...
'I've got a silver ingot, can you get me a weapon for all of us?
'Wow... I've never touched silver itself before... and it's so much more than an ingot... it's your weapon of choice, isn't it? We'll take care of it!
Now all that's left to do is get Setia engraved, which I was too busy this morning to do. In that order, it's Aeon's hairpiece of stars.
Hairpiece of Stars: rarity level 1, decoration quality F
Marking effect: Forfeit (one time only)
An accessory to attach to your hair with a star design.
Oh! I didn't know this was possible. The foresight seems to be an evasion skill, and for an ion that is naturally the type to duck, being able to duck is a big deal.
Shall we head to the Yellow Ossa Mountains again today? Just when I thought that, a bunch of players were there. What's going on?
Everyone was talking about how they wanted me to go along with them to level up. Full Moon and Mel speak.
