Chapter 136

Chapter 25 Germination (5)

Fortunately, both of them understand their roles well, and so far they have never let me down on a party hunt.

“What are you going to do, brother? Have you decided?”

“well… … .”

It’s a pity to buy what’s sold in the silver tab with the magical power you have now.

The prices of the things sold in the gold plate tab are too high.

Most of them can’t buy it because of the limit of 5 times the amount of magic they possess.

‘Maybe it’s better to save it in case I can’t learn Mana Control.’

Mana control, which is assumed to be a high-ranking skill for mana control.

It took two months to go from mana management to control.

It might be better to live if it takes that much time to go from control to domination.

‘How can I use it most efficiently?’

I continued to think about how to extract maximum efficiency.

“I’m going to think about it for a while. It won’t be too late to use it after gathering more mana.”

“… … Are you collecting more? Are you sure you’re not going hunting today?”

“Any reason why not?”

Kim Yul’s movement, which was munching on the meat that had been tucked in so that both cheeks were puffy, stopped abruptly.

Yang Tae-ho, who was sitting across from me and was eating silently, also raised his head and looked at me intently.

I laughed at the honest reaction of the two and said.

“After the victory ceremony, they said it was personal time.”

I had no intention of asking to go with you in the first place.

When he revealed his meaning, Kim Yul began chewing the meat in his mouth again.

Yang Tae-ho also brushed his chest and continued to fork again.

“I know you are a Spartan, but you kept hunting until the victory ceremony. Even until dawn every day. At that time, the mana absorbed was over 200,000. How could I have more mana in the last ten days than I did in the first three months? It doesn’t make sense, does it?”

“What else can I do? If you want to run fast, you have to move diligently.”

Kim Yul looked back at me with disgusted eyes and spoke in an astringent voice.

“I’m asking because I’m really curious, when does hyung take a break? Are you a man of steel who doesn’t need a break? Aren’t you stressed out?”

At the same time, I carefully removed Kim Yul’s fingers one by one because he was messing with my body.

“You rest when you sleep, why?”

“… … Don’t you sleep four hours a day? Do you still have classes with that wizard brother in the morning? Do you train with the knights too?”

“Three hours, I cut it down a bit recently.”

The only good thing after becoming a player is that my body can hold on well even if I sleep less.

“… … I really have nothing to say.”

“Then don’t talk. If you continue, it will mean that you have more energy left to go out, so we will take you to the hunt.”

Kim Yul shut his mouth at once.

‘Anyway, a talkative guy.’

Pick, I laughed lightly and started to check the remaining rewards.

A useless medal, a commodity that is always pleasing to look at, a breastplate worth wearing for a while.

Finally, even the small box given by the Marquis of Epenel.

‘I wonder what’s in it.’

Half curious and half nervous.

Opening the box revealed a round golden marble.

‘… … I really like gold.’

In Bihar, anything good tended to be associated with gold.

From that point of view, I had an intuition that this item would be quite useful.

As soon as I picked up the golden orb in the box, the system window popped up.

[Enhancement Stone containing the divinity of Pinelpenia]

• Classification: Consumables

• Obtaining Difficulty: Unique

• Rating: ★★★★★★★

• Description: You can relicize an item by endowing it with divinity. Items that have become relics have special powers.

• Effect: Strengthening an item.

The difficulty of obtaining it is unique, and among them, the grade is a whopping 7 stars.

I was surprised by the higher level of items than I thought, but I wasn’t very impressed.

Because the explanation was so poor.

Whether there is a chance of failure or not, how to use it, exactly how and how much to strengthen it.

It would be nice to know the detailed options in advance, but I didn’t intend to ask for such kindness in this game.

Now I know how stupid that is.

‘Just because I don’t know doesn’t mean I won’t do it.’

The moment I read the description, I already decided on the item to use this for.

‘The spear of Kerax.’

For now, it is the only conditional way to use the flame.

It’s an item that increases elemental magic by as much as 10 times, so I need to strengthen it.

‘It’s an enhancement of name and color, but can it get worse?’

There is a common goal of nurturing players between the system and the 7 gods.

It’s a bit embarrassing that it’s something that Pinelfenia intervened in.

‘It’s an item belonging to the game, so it won’t harm the player.’

The problem is that Kerax’s Spear is already an artifact.

After a brief hesitation, I stretched my arms out of the table.

When he took out the Kerax spear from the storage box, Kim Yul and Yang Tae-ho, who had almost finished their meal, gathered their eyes.

Since I didn’t know how to use it correctly, I first brought the marble to the window.

There was no response until 10 seconds, 30 seconds, and 1 minute had passed.

But I didn’t give up and waited a little longer.

‘I knew from the start that this game was crappy.’

It’s not strange if there is a slight delay.

“What are you doing now… … .”

It was when Kim Yul, unable to see the quiet silence, opened his mouth.

flash

One beat, no, several beats later, a painful golden glow filled the private room.

Afterwards, when the light disappeared, the golden orb in my hand disappeared.

Instead, a system window appeared over Kerax’s window.

[0.01% during enhancement]

Looking at 2, 30 seconds, it rose by an additional 0.01%.

Well, it was almost as fast as an update patch.

‘Even if a turtle crawls, it will be faster than this.’

I let out a long sigh and put the spear back into the locker.

I don’t think the results will come out right away, so I just removed it from my eyes.

‘I should eat quickly and go hunting.’

Rather than waiting for it to strengthen, I thought I’d be better off doing something else in the meantime.

* * *

After the meal, I immediately left Harbon Castle and headed for the Polluted Land.

In the meantime, the purification work on Harbon Island has been carried out quite a lot, so the outpost has been moved about five or six times.

‘It’s about time for this side to recapture the next castle.’

In fact, it seemed that a story was coming out from the top of the religious group.

Nothing has been decided yet, but once the advance is decided, of course I intend to participate.

If there’s anything I can do before that, do it quickly.

I purged the contaminated land while hunting, which was no different from repetitive labor.

Then, I suddenly stopped because of the information on the map.

‘What is this?

The first color dots were stamped on the map.

‘White?’

While looking at the map, I stopped hunting and turned around.

A bar with quite a few black dots already gathered around it.

I even speeded up in case it disappeared.

A few minutes later, when I arrived at my destination, I tilted my head.

“Kiruk!”

“Kieek, kiek!”

The first thing that caught my eye was the monsters gathered in one place and devouring red flesh.

Next, my eyes went to the unidentified corpse surrounded by the monsters.

‘It’s pretty big.’

It’s about 4m in height.

From nob le mt l dot com

Judging by its overall outline, it was four or five times the size of a bear.

In addition to that, there are 4 legs visible between the monsters.

Considering that it was a quadrupedal animal, it would have been bigger if done properly.

But it was unlikely that I would see that mysterious creature get up and move.

‘I think that one is dead.’

There is not even the slightest movement seen when breathing or feeling pain.

Does it make sense that monsters devour flesh and don’t struggle once?

Even if it wasn’t that, there was that unique cold and bleak feeling that flowed from the corpse.

I still looked at the white dot floating on the map and the unidentified corpse, then reached out my hand.

Normal monsters from 2 star polluted lands are now easier to catch than to breathe.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of fireballs flew towards the monsters.

I listened to the screams of the monsters as they burned alive and moved on.

After clearing away the monsters that surrounded the area, I was able to take a closer look at the huge corpse.

The fur of high places, untouched by monsters, is white.

The further down he went, the white fur was covered with red and black stains.

It had been eaten so much that the bones were visible in places.

‘The blood is red… … It’s certain that he’s dead.’

There was no heat at all that the fur should feel. I can’t even hear my heartbeat.

‘But why do the white dots keep appearing?’

I implemented magic detection which was rarely used after the map popped up.

Three red butterflies I haven’t seen in a long time.

The size was also larger than what was initially made.

It seemed to implement magic detection magic directly like that.

A small lump of magical energy nestled inside a huge corpse.

I lifted the limp corpse to reveal the true nature of that magical power.

I don’t know what happened, but the dead man was curled up.

As if rummaging through the bosom, the corpse was found here and there, between the hind legs and in the lower abdomen, some blood was found.

“One, two, three… … four.”

Three of the four cubs were cold.

and the remaining one.

“Beep, ki-ing.”

One of the four was fidgeting feebly.

It was then that I realized what the situation was.

‘I was wondering why this big guy was killed by a trash mob.’

They were attacked during childbirth and died without being able to resist.

Something went wrong during childbirth and the monsters found it and started eating it.

‘It must be one of the two.’

Grasping the rough situation, I grabbed the wiggly kid by the back without opening his eyes and lifted him up.

The cub, which is believed to have been born, was really small enough to be less than a handful.

Even if I put his body on my palm right away, there would be room left.

Of course, I didn’t pick him up because he was small and delicate, and it stimulated my sympathy.

‘What is the white dot?’

I picked up the one that was still alive and looked around.

‘It just looks like a mammal and a beast.’

Beasts in Bihar are also marked with blue dots.

But why does this guy float with white dots?

How is it different from other animals?

Does it mark a new kind of magical power?

I agonized as I wrapped my thumb and forefinger around the wriggling bloody neck.

‘Shall I absorb the mana?’

Then what if this guy’s magic is the kind that harms me?

For safety’s sake, we’d better take it as is and ask the Biharis what kind of creature it is.

Even during that brief moment of contemplation over what to do, he continued to wriggle and move.

I don’t know if he thought my hands were his mother’s milk or if there was some other reason.

He wriggled and turned around and thrust his snout into my hand.

And snap.

“Tsk!”

asked me I almost reflexively brushed my hands.

“Yaeng!”

As a result, his small body was thrown to the floor, but he did not pay attention.

Instead, he looked at the two holes dug between his thumb and forefinger.

“her… … ?”

It’s absurd that a guy who looks like he’s just been born has teeth.

To cut a body that wouldn’t hurt even if you cut it with a dagger.

After tending the wound, I reached out again and picked up the baby.

Immediately after, a strange sound came into my head.

thump thump-!

From a dark place, I started to hear a huge drum sound that seemed to vibrate my whole body.

-Kieek!

– Gyaaaong!

After the distant screams and screams, the surroundings suddenly became brighter.

An unfamiliar scream continued to be heard in the intense light that would tear the eyes out.

In the meantime, there was also whimpering and crying.

– Gyaow, Gyaong… … .

– Kki-ing… … .

As I listened and listened and listened to the cries of the beasts, it soon disappeared and only one remained.

-Beep, kiing… … .

“Beep, ki-ing.”

The only one I have in my hand right now.

“What is this… … .”

The words came out of my mouth reflexively, but I could tell without asking anyone.

It was a memory that had just flowed into my head.

Maybe what this little guy went through in his mother’s body before he was born, and what happened after he was born.

The way I looked down at the guy fidgeting in my hand changed.

‘Is it like telepathy?’

Doubts like how that is possible came first.

However, this is a world where two moons, magical powers, and so on are natural.

‘There’s no law saying there shouldn’t be a beast that can transmit telepathy.’

Between vigilance and curiosity, while I was chewing on my thoughts, he again spilled his memories to me.
