4.
[Do you want to dismantle Ara’s staff?]
A sigh filled with regret and hesitation flowed from Midas’ mouth more than ever at the audible notification.
“ah…. .
‘To dismantle this… … .’
Ara’s wand.
An item that will make everyone who knows God Wars go wild the moment you upload it to G-Bay.
Of course, it was not an item that could be sold.
Wasn’t it Midas, no one else, who had already boasted in front of Yehwa that they would disband before uploading it to G-Bay?
However, even if it didn’t sell, there were plenty of ways to make a profit.
‘I need to do an unboxing… … .’
Right now, Midas was planning a live broadcast to show the unboxing content item ability using Ara’s staff.
To use it like emergency food when there is no broadcast content to do.
It would be strange if you suddenly had to dismantle an item after making such preparations, but the answer was yes easily.
“I can’t.”
Lucky and Gold immediately reacted to Midas shaking his head and spitting out complaints.
king!
“master! You can.”
As if Lucky and Gold were competing, they started cheering for Midas.
Seeing the seniors like that, Silver tilted her head and asked a question.
“What is your master doing?”
“I do not know either! But Master can do anything, so all we have to do is cheer!”
“okay! Master, you can!”
Silver joined in, and Midas said with an awkward smile.
“Yes, you should. All right.”
‘shit…. .’
As if eating mustard while crying, Midas eventually tried to dismantle the item amidst that awkward laugh, and soon a notification was heard.
[Dismantled Ara’s staff.]
[It has been created as a new item in the inventory.]
Midas let out a long sigh in front of the notification that he was facing an irreversible outcome.
“The owner is great too!”
king!
“Even this bad dog appreciates his master’s actions! But the bad bird over there doesn’t do anything. Also that bird doesn’t help. It will only become an obstacle for the master in the future.”
With Gold and Lucky’s repeated encouragement and Gold’s excessive loyalty as the background, Midas took out a newly appeared item from his inventory, whether he knew the owner’s feelings or not.
[Map to Ara’s Tomb]
– Grade: Legendary
– A map to Ara’s Tomb. Guides the owner on the way to Ara’s tomb.
As soon as he took out the map made of cloth, footprints began to appear in front of Midas.
[Footprints heading to Ara’s tomb appear.]
At that moment, a memory from a few days ago came to mind in Midas’ mind.
‘no way?’
The memory of the time when I had to face the monsters while following the footprints in the pioneering zone.
‘also?
I remember grinding my teeth.
The game told Midas, who was grinding his teeth like that.
[Footprints disappear when you move away from them.]
As always, I thought I was right.
“It’s a damn game.”
Of course, things were different back then.
“Come on, do it right.”
The current Midas has a set of Ara.
5.
There were often times when things became easier due to external factors.
For example, if you go from driving a manual transmission vehicle to driving an automatic transmission vehicle.
Even though my driving skills haven’t improved, I still have plenty of room when driving.
Midas did too.
[Ara’s set effect is active.]
After wearing Ara’s set, all of Midas’ skill cooldowns and casting times increased by 50%.
Midas, who used to calculate skill cooldowns in seconds, had no choice but to have plenty of room.
And Midas used that leeway in battle.
‘Five crabs attached to me, seven crabs attached to Lucky, four crabs attached to gold and silver.’
It was used to look at the war situation and was used to make calculations in such a war situation.
“gold! Stick to Lucky!”
“I take orders!”
Naturally, Midas often took command of the war situation.
Considering that even each battle was in a hurry, it was a truly surprising change.
Since you can command the war situation, it is also possible to draw a big picture in battle, and combat has also become more efficient.
Even after that, there was room left.
‘Because I understand it in the beginning and kill it at once, the combat speed itself is definitely different.’
The effect of the wide-area magic that matched the expression of the great mage gave Midas an advantage no matter how many groups he faced.
Moreover, Midas had eyes.
‘I can see where everything is.’
Location of ambushed monsters Players have eyes to see hazards such as mines.
Of course, Midas had no intention of enjoying that leisure time.
I didn’t even want to be satisfied with that fact.
Perong!
[The Maned Hyena has been defeated.]
[The level has risen.]
Instead of being delighted with the notification when the battle ended, Midas looked around and drew a simulation in his head.
‘I need to find something more efficient using this spare time.’
Is there any way to use this overflowing margin to produce more efficient and faster results?
‘The most urgent thing is magic, but… … .’
Of course, Midas’ biggest problem at the moment was, of course, magical power.
Due to the 50% increase in magic power consumption, Midas was unable to handle even the blaze golem properly.
‘Up to 4 can be summoned at level 200, but maintaining this is impossible right now.’
Therefore, in basic battles, only one Blaze Golem and two Spirit Warriors were summoned and maintained.
In fact, even that was possible thanks to the availability.
‘I can afford to drink potions, so I can endure it.’
It would have been difficult to maintain even this if he hadn’t drank the potion during the aforementioned free time.
However, the potion was only a temporary measure.
A situation that requires a radical solution.
Of course, the lack of magic wasn’t something that could be solved by Midas practicing hard.
Only skills or items can solve it.
‘Even if I was told to do more than this, there is no tem to lose.’
The troublesome point was that it was no exaggeration to say that Midas’ item setting was already the best in its class.
[Midas]
– Level: 198
– Constellation: Word Dragon
– Occupation: Archmage
– Ability: Strength (5+1623)/Stamina (5+1588)/Intellect (892+2752)/Magic Power (203+2301) –
Remaining stats : 4
And it is no exaggeration to say that the ability level is the best in God Wars history.
In this situation, there were only two ways for Midas to improve his specs.
‘First, take level 200.’
One is to reach level 200.
‘Then I need to upgrade the dragon vein with the Legendary Epic Skill Card Book obtained as a quest reward.’
The only thing left is to acquire the Legendary Epic skill.
“Guys, do you still have strength?”
Midas, who had reached the fact, immediately looked at the end of the footprints and asked a question to his colleagues.
king!
“I haven’t even used half of that gold’s power! Silver, how are you?”
“Senior, I am full of energy too!”
Midas nodded at the answer that followed.
“Okay then let’s go right away.”
6.
[Arrived at Ara’s Tomb.]
[Level has risen.]
At the notification that the end of the long battle had been reached, Midas turned his head and looked around.
What Midas could see was a wasteland with nothing.
A place that doesn’t even have room to be called a grave.
king!
“Master, there doesn’t seem to be anything here.”
Lucky and Gold also questioned this wasteland-like stage.
Then, in Midas eyes, it was different.
In this wasteland-like land, it was clearly visible to Midas’ eyes.
!
Eyes looking at the great pioneer himself.
Before long, a face appeared around the eyes, and soon a ghost appeared in a poncho and feather hat.
The ghost walked toward Midas.
king!
“Master, the creepy feeling is cheap.”
However, Lucky and Gold did not seem to confirm the existence of such NPC Ara.
It was then.
The moment NPC Ara appeared in front of Midas’ nose, the shape of NPC Ara became clearer at that moment.
K-King!
“master!”
Only then did Lucky and Gold, who confirmed the NPC Ara, warn Midas with their alert posture.
Of course, Midas, who had already seen everything, said with a smile instead of being surprised.
“Meet Ara.”
NPC Ara tilted her head and said, looking at her relaxed appearance.
“Aren’t you surprised to see me? It appeared right in front of me on purpose to surprise me.”
At that, Midas responded by waving his hand lightly at the startled Lucky and Gold, as if telling them to calm down.
“It’s a place to meet great pioneers, so there’s nothing strange about what happens.”
“I like it. You deserve my keepsake.”
NPC Ara nodded and continued.
“I don’t need a long explanation. Because we already know what happened in the land of the pioneers. The reason you came to me must be to ask how to deal with the black hyenas, those monsters who have become followers of an unknown god, in this pioneer land.”
“yes.
“Honestly, you know how. Having followers means that there must be an altar, and what you want is where the altar is located.”
Midas nodded without answering as if he was satisfied with the quest that was being carried out in an instant.
Seeing that, NPC Ara said.
“There is nothing difficult.”
Along with the words, Ara immediately stretched out her hand toward the jackpot on Midas’s head.
Kww!
Jackpot let out a grotesque scream and began flapping its wings above Midas’ head.
No, it was more like struggling than fluttering.
Kww!
In the midst of the struggle, Jackpot let out a sound that seemed to die at any moment.
“What are you doing now…. .
Midas was startled by that fact.
K-King!
“You bastard! Can’t you keep your hands off my comrades!”
And Lucky and Gold showed clear hostility toward NPC Ara with their teeth and knives.
If Midas gives an order, he will immediately rush at you.
In such an atmosphere where even the sound of breathing became more frequent and bloody, a notification was heard.
[Jackpot has grown.]
A notification notifying that the jackpot has grown by one level.
“I gave part of my power to Thunderbird. Now this bird will be able to find the altar of the nameless god.
Midas makes an expression like a computer that has stopped, as if he doesn’t understand the reason at all.
Kurururu!
In his ears, the tone of Jackpot, which seemed pleasant enough to put the sound of passing out of breath from a while ago, into his ears.
Jackpot, who had become bigger than before, leaped from his seat with a pleasant cry and sat on Midas’s head.
Midas’ neck felt heavy enough to stagger.
[Choose the new ability of the jackpot yourself.]
With such a sense of weight, three cards emitting only golden light appeared in front of Midas’ eyes.
At that moment, Midas shouted.
“Wait a minute.”
Like making a raging noise like an overloaded computer.
‘No, how are things going now?’
After stopping the situation for a while and looking around and blinking several times, Midas was able to understand the situation.
‘It hit the jackpot!’
That a great fortune has struck you that will never come again!
Only then could Midas relax.
‘Kya, it’s a really good game! That’s how the game should be.’
In that moment, Midas checked the three cards that had now appeared in front of him.
Among them, one card made the smile on Midas’ lips thicker.
[Leah’s Blessing]
– Skill Grade: Legendary
– Skill Effect: Sing Leah’s song to rain Leah’s blessing on the earth. In the blessed land, physical strength and magical power are quickly restored. Leah’s Blessing!
Midas did not hesitate at the appearance of the skill that would satisfy Midas’ thirst.
[Jackpot acquired Leah’s Blessing skill.]
After making the selection, he looked at NPC Ara with a more relaxed expression than ever before.
‘Now it’s my turn to receive my reward.’
NPC Ara happily responded to Midas’ expectations.
“But since you came all the way here, I should give you a present.”
When NPC Ara pointed in one direction with her hand, an emerald-colored light representing Legendary Epic immediately radiated from there.
And since you came early, I should give you an extra gift to match.”
Right after that, NPC Ara pointed her hand in the other direction, and emerald light radiated from there as well.
‘This is so good I might die. Let’s calm down.’
In front of that light, Midas suppressed the joy soaring forcefully.
But the smile on his lips couldn’t be helped.
“As expected, Ara-nim is a great pioneer! That Midas! From now on, whatever you ask me to do, I will do it!”
And the soaring loyalty towards NPC Ara could not be helped.
‘It’s not Ara-nim, it’s Gadra-nim. No, it’s Gadgad, it’s Gadgad.’
NPC Ara smiled and said to Midas’ pleasure.
“Thank you for saying that. To be honest, I thought that this alone would not be enough.”
“Not enough?”
“Nothing. not enough.”
At that moment, Midas was terrified.
‘Is it not enough to spread like this? What is it? Is the game crazy?’
The moment his mind went cold from being so frightened, Midas felt it.
‘for a moment.’
What is the lack of NPC Ara said.
‘Can you stand?’
As always, God Wars answered Midas’ expectations.
“Because if you go to that altar as it is now, you will surely die.”
I think you feel really good.
