One of the greatest attractions of the New World was that it was still overflowing with uncharted territory that players could not reach.
The same was true of the primeval forests that were seen after entering through the shores of the New World, beyond the mountains at the end.
”That? The mountain you can't cross?”
”You can't go over it?”
”Yes. If you go over the mountain, you return to where you were without even realizing it.”
an indescribable mountain
”Then you'll have to go over it. What are you doing? Huh?”
Of course, it was the nature of players to try to overcome such stories, and there were many such cases.
Even in the cave of the Spirit, there were those who went down the cave with their bare hands, as well as those who explored the forest of mist around them even though they knew they were going to die.
”What did you do, live broadcasts, level-up.”
But there were too many more important things for players in the New World now.
”You know what? How much are they worth? Do they risk their lives to explore?”
And the ransom was too high.
I can't just pass the fact that I've been game-overed.
”If I turn on the broadcast at that time, I can buy a rice soup restaurant.”
And we can make a lot of money by doing a live show at that time.
Anyway, for that reason, the mountain that cannot be crossed had been left as an inviolable.
As it was left unattended, monsters were infested.
That's where Midas came in.
”Too many monsters.”
Of course, it didn't matter that there were many monsters.
King!
”I'll clean up in front of you. Silver! Prepare to adorn the legend of the master!”
”Yes, sir.”
”Lord, do your best this time.”
Reliable colleagues who have received the Egis' shield skills.
”When you have a lot of monsters, the brain field is the best.”
And there was a new encyclopedia of the Spirits of the Apocalypse.
Dismissed!
In particular, the presence revealed by the Spirit of the Brain War article was extraordinary.
The Spirits of the Brain War, which had the effect of firing powerful lightening bolts from all over the body and electrocuting and stiffening nearby monsters, was a nightmare for monsters, from existence to existence.
”With overwhelming force!”
Above all, the lightening attack from both hands was powerful when the battle began in earnest.
Dismissal! Dismissal!
At the same time, the attack even had the effect of a chain-lightening spell that electrocuted the target.
That's why the Spirit Knight of the Brain War is considered the best tier among all the Spirit Knights.
It was still the case.
Ciao!
A dinosaur with a bald head, Pachycephalosaurus.
When twenty Pachyphalosaurus, also known as the Pachypalsaurus, flocked at the same time, the spirit knight of the brain warfare did not avoid the attack.
As I said before, the basic attack of the Spirit of Brain War article had the effect of electric shock and paralysis.
Thus, the spirit of the epilepsy threw out the lightning in both hands, looking straight ahead at the surging Pachypalosaurus.
It's a piece of cake!
Then the blown epilepsy electrocuted a pachypalosaurus as it was, and then, starting with it, electrocuted a series of pachyphalosaurus around it.
Coughs!
The bodies of the Pachycephalosaurus, which were running against the attack, became rigid, and the moment they became rigid, they fell to the floor without controlling their speed.
Of course, falling wasn't a big blow.
K-Wow!
”I'll give you two pieces of that empty head!”
The problem was that Lucky, Gold, and Silver would never miss the moment they fell and spent their time helplessly shivering during the fall.
Lucky indiscriminately attacked the fallen dinosaurs with his teeth drawn, a knife in his gold hand, and Silver wielding the huge forefoot.
”Chain Lightning & Shock Wave & Thunderstorm.”
And Midas prepared a new attack on it.
[Casting is complete.]
Later, as soon as the casting was over, he threw the prepared magic one by one toward the battlefield.
The state of Lucky, Gold and Silver didn't have to be kept in mind.
Scrape!
Thanks to the shield effect of the Aegis, Midas' attack didn't even affect them.
”May there be a referee of the brain!”
There was no need to worry about the impact of lightning attacks on the spirits of the brain warfare.
Coughs!
Only dinosaurs spent their time in a pitiful scream and stiffness.
K-Wow!
The time when their lives burn.
[Pachycephalosaurus destroyed.]
[Levels up.]
Midas, who finished the battle, looked around the battlefield with ease.
Then I could see dinosaurs everywhere, and I could taste them for a short time.
'That's all a bunch of experience.’
If I could, I'd like to stay here and raise my level.
”Lord, concentrate on your work. Don't take a look.”
Unfortunately, there was something else Midas had to do right away.
”Yes, yes. I know.”
When Midas held the necklace in his hand, a token of the Order of the Blue Lion, the necklace pointed in one direction.
”Questions come first now.”
What you need to do right now is to do a main scenario quest.
'It's highly likely that it was an item, given that there's an unknown sorcerer involved.'
Moreover, the importance of the ongoing quest has been very high.
Because of this, Midas didn't have any lingering feelings.
'Well, I'll come back later with a guild of survivors and wipe it out.'
We'll be able to hunt until we get tired of it in four days later anyway.
”Okay. Guys, let's move. Aah!”
Midas, of course, did not forget.
”Item routing, mana filling. Mana Drain, the Mister.”
'You'll have to save a penny to keep your lucky items.’
That his financial situation is not very good now.
8.
an irresistible mountain
[Enters the land that cannot be returned.]
'It's foggy.'
The moment I crossed the mountain, I welcomed Midas because of the fog that made the alarm blurry.
It didn't feel very good.
”I'm strong in the fog again. Don't you, Gold?”
”This fog just doesn't cover any of the splendor of dignity from your body!”
But the fog was not so troublesome in front of Midas' eyes, who saw through everything.
'It's like that time.’
On the other hand, looking at the fog reminded me of the time when I found frost flowers and ingredients needed to extract item abilities.
It looks like an item's ability to extract. Or I'll bowel in my hands.’
From Midas' perspective, it is inevitable that there will be another opportunity to extract item skills.
'Let's take this opportunity to graduate from the Ara Series.'
Naturally, if the opportunity comes, Midas' item to extract was the Ara series.
An option that increases the magic damage while slowing down the casting!
'There's nothing wrong with it.’
There was nothing wrong with the option being applied permanently.
The problem is, if the options you extracted are the same, they won't overlap.….'
What just bothers me was that Ara's feather hat, Ara's bronze gloves, and Ara's poncho all had the same options.
Given what Godworth has shown us so far, there has been no chance of overlapping by extracting the same options.
'If you extract one, the set options disappear.'
On top of that, the Ara series is not even available as a substitute for quest items, so the set option has to be abandoned.
'It's a losing business.'
It is true that it can be stronger than it is now, and that the cycle of item replacement is well past, but it does not feel like a profitable business.
'Anyway, I'm gonna have to hit it again.
It meant we had to get a new item after all right?
In that state, Midas turned his head and looked straight ahead.
”Girls, get ready.”
Then the residents here were seen to welcome the first visitor to the land that could not be returned.
'Kimerasaurus?'
A dinosaur with an academic name that has never appeared in the world.
”Kimera? Did the dinosaurs join together?” Uh?'
But Midas couldn't afford to pay attention to the fact.
King!
”Lord, let's have a great battle today.”
”Come on, wait! Guys, wait!”
Midas said, stopping Lucky and Gold, preparing to run first, like a 100-meter runner.
”Operation change!”
A king?
”What's going on?”
