BJ Archmage - Chapter 282
Chapter 282. < Episode 90. Royal Tombs (3). >
7.
[You have entered Eveni’s mansion.]
Along with the notification, what unfolded before Midas’ eyes was a splendid flower garden.
‘what?’
It was a sight that seemed to come from a different world to the point that the desert scenery outside was colorless.
Above all, the sight that unfolded in front of my eyes was very wide.
‘From the outside, it was just a mansion, right?’
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a wide baseball field.
king!
“Senior, the flowers are in full bloom.”
Lucky and Silver, who are big enough to run around, not to the point where they could stretch themselves out.
A mesmerizing sight in many ways.
‘Do these all look like items?’
But what made Midas mesmerized was the fact that the flowers filling this vast flower field were not just ordinary flowers, but flowers with options.
Of course, to Midas’ eyes, this flower field looked like a text field full of option texts with flowers.
‘That’s also unique.’
Even those items were all red unique grade.
To the point where the eyes go back in many ways.
“I was waiting for you.”
At that time, a small but distinct voice appeared at Midas’ feet as he turned his eyes around.
‘flower?’
The protagonist of the voice was a palm-sized fairy sitting on a flower placed at Midas’ feet.
“My name is Eveni.”
NPC Eveney.
Together with the horse, she fluttered her butterfly-like wings and came up right in front of Midas’ eyes.
“Can I sit on your shoulder for a minute?”
“Ah yes.”
Midas nodded involuntarily at the question that followed, and immediately after that, the NPC Ibni sat on Midas’ left shoulder.
couw!
Then Jackpot, who had been tilting his head above the flower garden, flew over Midas’ head and sat down.
As if this body were his.
couw!
NPC Eveney smiled broadly at the appearance of Jackpot repeatedly appealing that fact, then said.
“I never thought I would see a thunderbird like this. A thunderbird that chases after a nameless god.”
Then he turned his gaze to Midas and spoke to him.
“And I didn’t know that the one who had the power of a nameless god would come to my realm like this. It’s a strange combination in many ways.”
As if secretly whispering in your ear.
[Quest conditions have been completed.]
Midas finally came to his senses at the notification of the quest that followed.
‘This is not the time to relax. For now, I have to solve the problem.’
Currently, the curse of Midas is still present and the royal family key cannot be retrieved properly.
In other words, there was no solution to the situation.
It means that this is not the time to sell your mind.
“I am being chased by an unknown person because of the power of a nameless god emanating from my necklace. How could there be no way?”
Midas, who came to his senses, asked a very brief question with only what he wanted.
In response to that question, NPC Eveney, who was sitting on his shoulder, said.
“I don’t know who the mysterious one is, but there are two ways I know of to quell the power of an unknown god flowing from your necklace.”
As NPC Eveney moved her hand lightly along with her words, a flower that had been broken on the floor floated to the surface and was caught in NPC Eveney’s hand.
NPC Eveni put it next to Midas’ ear.
[The power of the nameless god is silenced.]
“One is to use my flower. This flower will hide the power of the nameless god.”
Surprisingly, the answer came right away.
“Until the flowers wither.”
And in the explanation that followed, Midas picked up the flower in his ear and checked it.
[Eveni’s Flower]
– Grade: Unique
– Effect: Soothes the power of a nameless god while the flower does not lose its vitality.
– Current remaining duration: 14 days 23 hours 59 minutes
Midas was able to guess the future situation the moment he checked the flower options.
‘It’s a time-limited quest.’
As long as the flower does not wither, you can repel the pursuit of an unknown person. That means you have to do something before the flower withers.
“If you’re not going to be here for the rest of your life, you’ll have no choice but to use the second method.”
“that’s right.”
That something, of course, was to find the second method NPC Eveni had said.
“The other way is to wash the necklace in the royal oasis. With the noble power contained in the royal oasis, even the power of a nameless god will be silenced.”
[A new quest has been created in the main scenario quest list.]
At that moment, a quest window appeared in front of Midas’ eyes.
[Oasis]
– Quest Grade: Main Scenario
– Quest Level: Below level 259
– Quest Content: Let’s go to the royal oasis that Eveni told me about to wash away the curse. To get to the oasis, you need the royal key. The King’s Key can be obtained from the Desert King in Sand Forest.
– Quest Reward: Unknown
! Quest Reward: Skill Card Book (Legendary Epic)
! Upon completion of the quest, you can proceed with ‘Road to the Royal Tombs’
.
Flowers are valid for 15 days.
It meant that after defeating the King of the Desert, he had to retrieve the key to the royal family and return to this place.
Not only catching the King of the Desert, but even going to the Sand Forest where the King of the Desert is located is not easy.
Anyone who has ever experienced a desert will tell you without exception.
This game is a very rubbish game!
But Midas had no such thoughts in his mind.
I didn’t even think about it myself.
“Is this over there?”
Just take out the royal family key from your inventory and show it in front of NPC Eveney.
“oh.”
Seeing this, the NPC Eveni fluttered her wings with a surprised expression and circled around the large golden key that Midas held in her hand.
“You’ve already saved me!”
[The quest has been completed.]
At the notification of the completion of the quest that followed, Midas blinked incessantly on the spot.
‘…. driving me crazy. How the hell is it going? Are you really done with this?’
A situation that Midas himself did not dare to imagine. In such a situation, Midas’ thinking ability was also inevitably confused.
However, NPC Eveni, who had no way of knowing Midas’ circumstances, continued her work like an NPC.
“It’s amazing. I really didn’t expect to get this key so quickly. I’m sorry I doubted your ability even a little bit.”
At that moment, NPC Eveney beckoned, and something started to come up from the flower garden.
An emerald colored skill card book, not a flower.
“This is an apology for my rudeness in doubting and belittling your abilities.”
The reward for completing the quest at once was not an ordinary reward, but the moment the legendary grade skill card book reward appeared in front of his eyes, Midas’ mind was bound to harden like a stone.
It was for this reason that Midas stared blankly at the reward in front of him even though it was floating.
‘Is this a dream? Or a hallucination?’
Now it’s to the point where what you see doesn’t feel like reality.
“Please accept it.”
It wasn’t until NPC Eveni spoke up again that Midas, who finally came to his senses, retrieved the Legendary skill card book.
‘Isn’t it a dream? Is it real?’
Of course, even at that moment, Midas’s face was clear.
To be honest, rational judgment was impossible at this moment.
I just act instinctively.
It was thanks to that.
‘Calm down, Midas. This is not the time to like it.’
One of those instincts, the crisis instinct, immediately warned.
‘The next quest is the way to the tomb of the royal family. Under the circumstances, it is clear that the level of difficulty will be very high.’
A warning that the next quest is not a normal quest.
‘Maybe it’s because I had high expectations for this thing… … .’
At that moment, Midas could guess why the 10th guild was so interested in the key to the royal family.
‘The difficulty level of the quest with this key was no joke.’
The Abyss Guild, which not only possesses this key but also knows the location of the NPC Eveni, has never done a quest through this key.
‘To the extent that even the Abyss Guild failed.’
Nevertheless, the fact that only the top 10 guilds and a few minorities knew the story of this key so far meant that even the Abyss Guild couldn’t complete the quest.
Because no one can openly talk about the failure of the Abyss Guild.
In many ways, it means that the difficulty is far off.
It also meant that I had to be so nervous.
“Whoa.”
The tension made Midas’ head, which had been hardening, quiver again.
“Then we must go to the royal tomb from now on. How should I go about that?”
After a while, the NPC Eveney answered the words that were spit out.
“The road to the royal tomb is not an ordinary road. There is a group of sand snakes and a group of rock scorpions along the way. And the sandmen who died in the desert wander around looking for prey to make their allies.”
At that explanation, Midas clenched his teeth.
‘…. It’s really no joke.’
It’s not that easy to catch even one sand snake, but there is a group of such sand snakes?
And it was clear that the group of rock scorpions was not just two or three.
Sandman was originally a monster that appeared around the sand forest and was very difficult to deal with.
‘If you have three or more sand snakes and six or more rock scorpions, it’s a hell that won’t let you down even compared to a meteorite impact field… … .’
Imagining the situation, Midas felt as if chicken skin was sprouting all over his body, even though it was a game.
What was even more devastating was that there was a high possibility that that imagination would become a reality.
‘…. Seeing the failure of the Abyss Guild, it must be hell.’
If it was just halfway, the Abyss Guild would not have tolerated the word failure.
‘Ah, this should also be broadcast live… … I’m going to die.’
Midas, who has no choice but to dry up in many ways, NPC Eveney said to him.
“Not only that, but the magic of the mirage is hanging on the way, so I can’t go properly. If you get lost, you have to start all over again.
Worse still.
‘That’s right.’
At that point, Midas was able to calm down.
‘Can this trash game make it easy?’
Now I feel like I’m playing God Wars, which I usually do.
‘Anyway, this game and the people who made it are all trash, trash.’
In response, Midas, as usual, cursed and cursed God Wars and the human who created the game.
That was the moment.
“But if I can guide you, you will be able to cross the crisis without difficulty.”
[The main scenario quest list has been updated with new quests.]
At NPC Eveni’s words, Midas eventually gave up on thinking.
8.
– Azmo: The road to the grave quest difficulty is not normal.
-Azmo: Sand snakes and rock scorpions are the basic units, and Sandmen also appeared in the hundred units.
– Azmo: There were cases where five sand snakes appeared at the same time.
The road to the royal tomb.
Park Young-joon, who heard from Azmo about the danger of the road, tapped his temple with his finger.
‘The BJ Great Mage will definitely attack.’
It wasn’t that I was worried about the attack itself.
If you are a BJ master mage that Park Young-joon knows, you will surely overcome this difficulty with your own abilities.
I had already made a decision in the past not to worry about such a part.
‘Then how can I get more profit?’
Part of the worry was compensation.
Even if the results are the same, the applause and cheers of the public differ depending on the preparations made in advance.
Park Young-joon’s fingers, which had been contemplating tapping on my head, stopped.
Then he asked a question.
“I heard that the members of the Abyss Guild’s first team caught the Desert King and immediately went to the next hunting ground, so they didn’t complete the quest on the way to the royal tomb.”
– Azmo: That’s right.
“Then, what do you think would have happened if the first team members had attacked at that time?”
– Azmo: I watched a video of the Abyss guild attacking through my personal connections, and even though the first team members, including Merlin, tried, the probability of attacking was barely over 50%.
In response, Park Young-joon nodded.
“Is that story off the record?”
And Azmo answered the question that followed.
– Azmo: It looks like you want to raise the plate.
The road to the tomb of the royal family is difficult, but most viewers don’t know that fact.
If so, I needed to tell you more clearly how difficult it is.
– Azmo: Shall I do it? If I do, it will come out a little more exaggerated.
And usually, in this case, the publicity would be a bit more exaggerated than the known truth.
It was the same even now.
If there is a mountain to be climbed, it would be better to exaggerate the mountain.
Only then will the cheers and praise for the one who conquered the mountain naturally grow much bigger.
“No, thanks. It is better for the person concerned to do it himself.”
And it would be even more convincing if someone who hadn’t climbed the mountain told me about it.
– Azmo: Are you going to move the Abyss Guild? It won’t be easy.
“I will make a deal. What you’re most concerned about right now is that BJ Grand Mage doesn’t progress on quests and stays idle.
– Azmo: Well, I was so excited that the Explorers Guild even came out to meet me. don’t let it fall somewhere else.
“Yes, I am making an offer. If the Abyss Guild directly tells us how difficult the quest is, we will attack immediately.”
It was then.
A new message appeared in the lower right corner of the monitor where the chat window appeared.
[A hacking attempt has been detected.]
[This is a different route and pattern than usual.]
[It is recommended that you finish the conversation within 30 seconds and start the conversation in a new place.]
As soon as he saw the message, Park Young-joon delivered that fact.
“It seems that someone interested in our conversation has joined.”
about 3 seconds after that.
– Azmo: Confirmation complete.
– Azmo: Okay, let’s end the conversation here. It’s not a big deal, and it’s embarrassing to get caught chatting.
– Azmo: Your skills are better than that. Seeing as you noticed earlier than us.
After that conversation, Azmo disappeared from the chat window, and Park Young-joon also came out of the chat window.
At the same time, a message came up.
[This is a new way. It seems that the other side has hired a new team.]
[It’s like stabbing this time. It seems that more preparations and preparations will be needed in the future.]
Park Young-joon, who saw that, gave a short exclamation.
‘It was faster than Azmo’s side… … Are your skills better than I thought?’
I knew a hacking attempt would come, but did you think it would be faster than Azmo’s?
That was great.
Because when it came to hacking conversations like this, Azmo was literally the target of hackers all over the world.
Of course, the preparation for him was more thorough than anyone else.
Even so, did you check it faster than Azmo?
‘I’ll have to get along more closely from now on.’
It was a pleasure for Park Young-joon.
“Thank you and I look forward to seeing you in the future. If you need anything, ask for it anytime.”
Naturally, in Park Young-joon’s head, the methods needed to get close to this new partner came to mind.
And I spit out each of them one by one.
“Even so, employee welfare is good. There are student loans as well as home equity loan programs.”
Of course, the conversation about him ended there.
‘Now then, shall we make a deal with the Abyss Guild?’
Because Park Young-joon had a much more important conversation than that.
