8.
A hole measuring 1 kilometer in diameter, a figure that makes you feel incredible just by listening to the explanation.
Naturally, the shock I felt when I saw it in person was quite intense.
That's why most of the players who reached the cave of the Spirit are shocked.
”If you go down this cave, it's the Spirits. It's another world with the Spirits and the Spirits.”
What was even more surprising was the fact that there was another world beyond the entrance of this huge cave.
The questions that players ask in this section were the same.
”You have to go down here? How?”
How do you get down under a vertical cave that is one kilometer in diameter and 3.3 kilometers in length?
There were two main ways.
”The easiest way is to go down using a teleport magic team that activates every two hours.”
The first method is possible because it is a game.
”The second one is... ...”
The other method was a very basic one that everyone could think of.
To climb directly down the wall.
'Whew.
Now Midas chose the second option.
'I never thought I'd do this.’
A hole so black that you couldn't see the bottom, Midas was going down the wall of the hole.
In fact, it was not a difficult task.
Players' physical abilities were superior to reality at GOTWORKS.
Even if all the abilities were invested in mana or intelligence, the muscle stats of 170-level players exceeded 200 when the basic items and title rewards were added, and climbing cliffs was not a problem.
If the muscle strength stats were over 1,000, it was possible to go down using only your fingers.
With that level of stats, making a hole in the wall with your finger was no different from stabbing tofu with chopsticks.
For this reason, there were unexpectedly more players going down the wall here than I thought.
An average of five or six players were overrun by crashes in this area a day.
Even Godworth encouraged such gameplay in its own way.
The holes all over the wall were proof.
If you're having a hard time going down, get some rest!
That's what the hole meant.
I've been cursing like that because it's just a bunch of idiots.….'
Midas, of course, was a perfectly normal sort of person who thought this was a nut job.
Nevertheless, there was one reason why he did this.
'If it wasn't for the main scenario quest...….'
The fact that there is someone on this cliff that you have to meet.
'Here it is.'
Midas, who had reached the entrance to the wall so red-lighted, quickly thrust himself into it.
”Whoa!”
Now facing the plain, Midas breathed a long sigh.
”Master!”
Then Gold came in.
Coo-oo!
And after a little more time, Jackpot came in.
King!
With Lucky.
The jackpot, which appeared like that, threw Lucky on the floor and then spread its wings wide at Lucky and screamed.
Coo-oo!
As if I should never let you do this again.
Hehehehe!
At the sight, Lucky licked Jackpot's head with his tongue with a bright breath instead of an answer, and when saliva got on him, Jackpot wielded his head and shouted, ”Kkow again!”
”Well, they're not helping you either. I seem to be the only one who has helped you to the end. I, Gold, will devote myself to your glory until the very end.”
Midas burst into laughter at Gold's emphasis on loyalty, mixing proper denunciation toward the figure.
'They're the real reason I'm living.’
Midas, who confirmed that everyone was in, finally checked outside the entrance.
Is there anyone who follows?
Midas, who identified the scenery in the process, was tongue-tied.
Come to think of it, it's very difficult. How do you know you're here?’
How long would it take to find this place if it weren't for Midas' eyes?
One thing was clear.
'I'm sure. The main scenario quest isn't for the players to enjoy the game more, it's for the players to change their lives if they want to target it.’
The difficulty of the main scenario quest is beyond the common sense.
Crrrr!
”Master!”
So the moment Midas uttered his tongue, there was a warning from Lucky and Gold in Midas' ear.
Meaning something is coming!
Midas was also nervous about the fact.
'Is there anyone else besides me?'
We have to proceed with the main scenario quest, but there's nothing good about outsiders interrupting.
Fortunately, concerns did not last long.
”Hide your teeth because I know you came for me.”
It was NPC, not a player.
[You have won the title of the man who met Arbia.]
NPC arbia
She was an impressive dwarf with her hair tied in pigtails and a huge axe on her back.
”If you don't want to die.”
And a very harsh Dwerf.
Midas said at her appearance.
”It's from Mr. Lightling.”
”I know. Without the guardian's armor, the king's ring on the Thunderbird, the king's ring, it would have flown from the axe, not the horse. So why did you come here?”
Asked the following questions, Midas immediately took the unnamed book of the Magician out of the inventory.
”I'm here to ask you to interpret this.”
As soon as NPC Arbia opened the book after receiving the book from Midas, she read the book over and over again with a wrinkled expression.
Soon she read the whole book and said,
”I asked you to interpret it, didn't I?”
”Yes.”
”In short, this book is sealed.”
”The seal?”
”It's a common use. ”How to put a magic seal on a book so that it doesn't recognize itself. If you unseal it in a clumsy way, the book will perish.”
It was the moment.
[Quest completed successfully]
[New quest updated for main scenario quest item.]
NPC Arbia said with the alert.
”To conclude, we must unseal the seal first.
A quest window appeared in front of Midas' eyes with the following words.
[interpretation]
- Quest rating: Main Scenario
- Quest level: Level 145 or higher.
- Quest content: Let's bring what Arbia demands to unseal.
- Quest Rewards: A Book of the Unknown Magician (interpretation)
!Disassemble is possible when the quest is completed.
!When completed within 4 days of the quest, the title of 'Appreciated by Arabia' will be given.
!Payment for title of persons recognized by Arbia: Rune (all abilities + 20) paid
Midas frowned upon the contents of the quest.
'Feeling cheap.’
I know the difficulty level of the main scenario quest is not normal, but I think this quest is more than that.
It wasn't a vague feeling.
If the title reward for completing a quest within four days is not normal, it usually means it takes more than four days!
Toward such Midas, NPC Arbia said.
”Fortunately, if you have the nucleus of a spirit you can get when you capture it, you can unseal it.”
We're lucky.
Of course, the sneering around my mouth was telling me that the remark was not true.
Still, Midas asked.
”How many do you want me to catch?”
At the question, NPC Arbia unfolded a finger, and Midas said in dismay at the fact.
”10,000? You want me to catch 10,000 now?”
'Crazy, does that make sense?’
Surprised, NPC Arbia shook his head and said to him,
”No, we just need to catch about a thousand.”
That's what Midas said. At the moment of the look, NPC Arbia said as if she had been waiting.
”Only the Spirit Knights.”
9.
The moment the players reached the bottom of the cave, which had been going down endlessly, it was the forest that the players faced.
A forest full of trees with flame leaves blazing over ice pillars!
”Wow, it's pretty!”
”Flame leaves on ice branches, I can't fold Godworth in this real taste.”
Most of the players were once again fascinated by the sight of the spirits living in the world.
Of course such appreciation did not last long.
”Damn it, again!”
”You damn trees!”
The Spirits that appear in the Forest of Spirits are two kinds: ice and fire.
Those two spirits were so naturally born from fire and ice.
In other words, trees with flame leaves on ice branches had nothing strange about being a spirit tree at any moment.
Unlike ordinary hunting grounds, it means that you can't control your combat pace while identifying the presence of monsters.
”They're spirit knights!
Furthermore, when the battle began, the spirits armed with armor and the spirits knights moved.
There was no rest in the Forest of Spirits.
That's why players party and hunt more than 30 players in the Forest of Spirits.
”Oh, I'm going to take a break.”
”Touch.”
