This Is Not a Game - This Is Not a Game chapter 184
I almost forgot
“As expected, the evil eye of truth is a fraud.”
It’s been quite a while since I stole a skill.
Due to issues such as karma points and skill usage rates, he tried not to steal skills as much as possible during the quest, but the martial arts shown by the Reaper of Blood and Muwon were coveted enough to break that principle.
It is a foot technique that creates goosebumps that make you goosebumps just by looking at it, so sophisticated that you can’t see through the main body without using Kang Qigong and the Demonic Eye of Truth.
Both were exactly what they needed.
“Yoosung! Are you okay?”
“I’m fine. how about you? It seems like it’s too much, but isn’t there a problem or something like that?”
“Hehe, there’s nothing wrong with the railgun being a little broken due to overpowering.”
“… … .”
Yooseong looked at Aris, who smiled brightly, then moved his gaze to the black dragon who was dying miserably.
Although he was aiming for the reverse, Aris finished off the monster with a single blow.
An android that uses dragon hearts as its power source.
I thought it would be strong, but I didn’t expect it to be this strong.
even unfinished.
I couldn’t even imagine how strong it would be once completed.
“Yoosung?”
“Oh sorry. I thought about something else for a second.”
Yuseong, thinking that he should have an in-depth conversation with Sophia, apologized to Aris and went up to the altar.
A sarcophagus was placed on top of the altar, and a total of six chests were placed at regular intervals around it.
Yuseong first opened the nearest box.
The box was packed with books.
Yooseong, who took out a book that could be easily grasped, made a strange expression.
“Taeguk Hye Sword?”
“What is it?”
“The best swordsman of the non-partisan faction.”
“ah! I know that shaman! I saw it in a web novel!”
“Did you see anything like that?”
“Yes. I also read web novels and watched movies and dramas. Was it very fun?”
“… … You are enjoying modern culture very well.”
Yooseong burst into a dejected laugh and checked other books.
Dokgogu Sword, Four Day Sword, Ohhodanmundo, Soso Magicong, Thunder King Shin Gong, Mancheon Hwawoo
The books in the box were famous martial arts that could be known just by hearing the name.
Yooseong, who put down his secret grade with his tongue out, opened the box next to him.
Unlike the first box, which contained martial arts secrets, the second box contained books such as spellbooks and fortune-telling books.
‘Martial arts and shaman books. I’m coveted, but it’s a bit ambiguous to choose as a reward.’
I wouldn’t know if it was before I got the red blood new skill and the regimental tool, but there was no martial skill that I was particularly attracted to now.
I was interested in the method of using the plasma axe properly or the spell book that could compensate for the poor magic with only one thorn vine, but there were still five boxes left, so there was no need to hurry.
Yooseong, who closed the second box, checked the rest of the boxes.
The third and fourth chests contained jewels and precious metals.
Yamyeongju that emits light itself, a cat’s eye stone resembling a cat’s eye, and a golden crown adorned with various jewels.
It was something that could be sold at a fairly high price in this world as well as on Earth.
‘It’s not really a situation where I’m in need of money.’
Thanks to the price of the ability awakening potion, I have enough money.
And even if money was urgent, I had cleared A-class quests at most, but I had no intention of choosing a simple currency item as a reward.
Inside the fifth box were various weapons.
“This pass.”
Weapons made in the world of Moorim may be strong, but there were no special options, such as a plasma ax with extreme cutting power or Tyrant’s arms that grant supernatural power.
Of course, there was no reason to choose.
Yoosung opened the sixth box and scratched his head.
“Elixir and spirit.”
It’s not bad, but I can’t say it’s good either.
This is because consumables that permanently increase stats, such as elixirs and spirits, have a halved effect as the user’s basic stats increase.
The level of internal air of the body currently on Earth is 700 points.
Eating top-notch elixirs such as the Three Kings of Mannyeon or Gongqing Petroleum should have had significant changes, but it was difficult to say that they were effective.
“Um, this is very ambiguous.”
Objectively, the reward wasn’t bad, but there was nothing that made me feel “this is it!”
While thinking about what to choose, Yooseong suddenly saw a sarcophagus in the middle of the altar.
An elongated rectangular coffin as opposed to a box close to a square.
There were numerous secrets in the boxes, but there were no martial arts that are assumed to have been left by Tongcheonshinma Haecheongyeong.
I didn’t touch it because it looked like it might contain a body, but the only thing left was that coffin.
Sigh.
Contrary to expectations, the coffin contained several items instead of a corpse.
one essay.
Four books that seem off-grade.
Two small necks.
Yooseong first checked the writing.
– Haecheongyeong, the 49th religious leader of Shinkyo, leaves a message for Yeonja. I don’t know if you are the legitimate successor of the Protestant religion, or if you are a member of the sect or sect. But that doesn’t matter. Just as I was able to reach the realm of Demonic Seon thanks to a fate I came across by chance, I will convey everything about the principal to the speaker I met.
An accidental encounter.
Yoosung could see that the relationship was referring to himself.
“Something is bitter.”
By her own standards, it hadn’t even been a year, but in this world, it’s already been hundreds of years.
Recalling the image of Haecheongyeong, who enthusiastically shouted for the unification of Murim and the underworld, Yuseong put down the booklet with a bitter smile and checked the book next to it.
Heavenly Demon Goddess.
It was a martial art that anyone who had read martial arts magazines at least once could not have known.
“Huh! no!”
Yooseong, who was reflexively trying to open the book, stopped his hand with superhuman endurance.
If it was a martial art of the level of the Heavenly Demon God, it was certain that he would have to pay a considerable amount of karma points the moment he read even a small amount.
And he has his own non-geukilwongong.
The Cheonma Shin Gong is definitely a great martial art, but I didn’t think it was superior to the martial arts that Bruce, who was recognized as a martial god by himself and others, made by integrating numerous martial arts.
‘Above all, I’m not sure if I’ll be able to learn the Heavenly Demon Art.’
Even though he has bought skills at the Karma Shop or stolen skills using the Mystic Eye of Truth, he has never learned a skill through direct training.
Will he be able to learn martial arts just by looking at martial arts books?
It’s not a low-level martial art like the Samjae sword method, but the Cheonma Shingong?
Yooseong, not wanting to take an uncertain gamble, calmly put down the Heavenly Demon Spell.
“Three Swords of the Heavenly Demon, the Ruler of the Heavenly Demon, the Sun Moon Festival?”
Yuseong, who was checking the rank in turn, found the only book without the word Cheonma and tilted his head.
<Sunwol Festival>
-Rating: S
-Type: Book
-An old book that records the ritual of gathering the spirits of the sun, moon, and stars at the moment when the cycles of the celestial body coincide to create a divine being.
It was a short explanation, not even one line, but the contents contained in it were by no means light.
“The ritual of the sun and moon!”
“Hick?!”
Aris could be heard from behind, but Yoosung’s attention was all on the book.
A ritual that allowed Haecheongyeong to rise to the level of demons.
The book in which the ceremony was recorded was now in his hand.
‘I absolutely have to take this!’
A ritual that can turn a mortal into a transcendent.
Although the condition of the moment when the cycles of the celestial bodies match is attached, the value was not dared to be judged.
Is this how it feels when a lottery ticket bought without much thought wins first prize?
I never thought that such a big hit would happen.
With this book alone, the main battle for this quest was more than enough.
“Whoa, whoa.”
Yooseong took a slow, deep breath to calm his madly pounding heart and then looked at his neck armor.
One side was an ordinary neck armor with no decorations engraved on it, and the other side was a neck armor with unknown patterns and letters engraved on it.
Yooseong first opened the ordinary neck armor.
<Jeongshimdan>
– Grade: A
-Type: short medicine
– A medicine made to help absorb energy and protect the mind and body. The best effect is obtained when taken with other medicines.
-Elimination of negative effects of all kinds of medicines taken after taking (limited to one time).
-Increases mental stat by 1,000 for 24 hours when taken.
Yooseong’s eyes narrowed.
A single drug that is useless and only works when taken in combination with other drugs.
He wouldn’t have put such a medicine in a sarcophagus for nothing.
After closing the first armor, Yooseong then opened the second armor.
Inside, there was a black marble and a small note that gave off a somewhat ominous feeling.
The text on the note was simple.
Eat the medicine contained in the other armor and break the marble.
Yooseong, who put down the note, appraised the marble.
<Bead of Thoughts>
-Grade: A+
-Type: Consumables
– A marble containing the thoughts of a warrior who has reached the state of transcendence. When the marble is broken, the thoughts are absorbed by the nearest entity.
It was an item with an unkind explanation that made it impossible to guess the effect, but it bothered me that it was a set with an A+ grade and an A grade Jeongshimdan.
Yooseong, who was worried, closed the neck armor and put the sarcophagus and boxes from the altar into the subspace.
Compensation can be considered later.
First of all, clearing the quest was the priority.
“Oh, I almost forgot about this.”
Yooseong approached the black dragon’s corpse and took out a plasma ax from subspace.
“Can you eat the dragon’s inner hem?”

B rank.
It was the lowest clear rank except for the time when I did various tests to gather information about the previous goggles and quests.
The usual high-rank clear additional reward window was not visible, but Yuseong was not disappointed.
It was because he hadn’t even expected that he would be able to clear this quest at a high rank in the first place.
From the S-class blessing, to the A+-class tyrant’s arms and android equipped with a dragon heart, to the elemental bow, plasma ax, and nano clothes that she took out to raise her stats even a little.
Rather, it was fortunate that I came out with a B rank.
Dig!
I closed my eyes to the bright light that I couldn’t get used to no matter how many times I went through it, and when I opened it, I saw a familiar landscape.
Yooseong, who took out his smartphone and confirmed that less than a day had passed on the earth, sighed in relief as he lay down on a chair.
I knew that this world’s time multiplier was high, but I couldn’t be relieved until the quest was over.
‘The first thing we need to do now is… … .’
In this quest, there was a lot to gain and a lot to realize, so there were a lot of things to do.
Yooseong, who was agonizing over various options, such as talking to Sophia, understanding the exact performance of the Android, and increasing the proficiency of newly acquired skills, decided to deal with the easiest task first.
