BJ Archmage - Chapter 322
Chapter 322. < Episode 101. Shield of Aegis (1). >
1.
Temple of Aegis The Abyss Guild described it as Manhattan’s subway.
The first reason was that the aisles of the temple of Aegis were huge and complicated enough for subways to pass through, just like the Manhattan subway.
The second reason was because of the presence of a bull with horns, one of the monsters that appear here.
Mmmmm!
The 3-meter body length and 1-meter-long spear-like horns on their heads led the pronghorn bulls, which were running in groups of at least 10 or more, and the charge was not much different compared to the subway.
No, it was worse than the subway.
At least the subway will try to stop if there is something in front of it, but the ox with horns rushes towards something.
Mmmmmmm!
So the moment the horned bull roared in the distance, all players could do was run away.
Just like walking along the subway line and running away when you hear the sound of the subway coming.
– It’s the Pronghorn Bull again!
– What a crazy dungeon!
This was one of the biggest reasons why Temple of Aegis required a long play time.
No matter how difficult and difficult the road was, they had no choice but to run away the moment they heard the sound of a herd of pronghorn bulls, and there were many cases in which they got lost.
On the one hand, I had to cleanly deal with the monsters on the way to prepare for the appearance of the Pronghorn Bull.
If you run away from a bull with horns and run into another monster or encounter another bull with horns, the next thing you encounter will be two words: annihilation.
The bigger problem was that I couldn’t run away forever against such a pronghorn bull.
Which means you have to catch it eventually.
That was the most troublesome thing.
– In such a clogged passageway, a bull with a horn is going crazy for the tankers.
ㄴ It’s not important that the tanks hold out, it’s a headache not being able to see a corner to deal with.
In a situation where it was not easy even for quite a few tankers to struggle with the pronghorn bull, the limited space of the aisle was no different from the worst dealing environment for dealers.
– Distance dealers will break through if you show them an opportunity to deal.
– Melee dealers go out in front of the tank and lose if they make a mistake.
– Allies get caught up in wide-area magic.
– That’s right, wizards really die.
In particular, among the dealers, the activities of mages had to be extremely limited.
– This is not even Merlin’s answer.
– Even Azmo can’t come.
Nevertheless, the BJ Grand Mage Party was advancing through the temple at an astonishing speed.
– Well, it’s a story that has nothing to do with BJ the Great Mage.
The secret was simple.
– You have nothing to do anyway?
There is no need for a BJ great mage to step out, just Lucky, Gold, Silver, and Jackpot are enough.
no, it wasn’t enough.
It is more accurate to say that it overwhelms.
It was the same even now.
Mmmmmmm!
The moment the horned bulls heralded their charge with their cries, Silver blocked the aisle and said,
“I will stop you.”
I’m going to block myself.
Mmmmmmm!
And then, as soon as the oxen with horns roared like a runaway locomotive, Midas shouted.
“Guardian blocking!”
“Yes Master!”
Legendary grade skill, Guardian Blocking!
Kwawang!
The best blocking skill, that skill easily received the charge of the horned bulls.
Mmmmm!
“I can’t break through this place!”
And then the 12 horned bulls and Silver’s strength contest began!
“Good work Silver!”
At that time, the gold attached to the ceiling fell to the floor.
The falling gold was a very small one meter tall.
“Dare to repay the rudeness of the master with death!”
Downsizing Mode!
The gold, which had been reduced through that skill, went under the legs of the horned bulls without any disturbance.
And it roamed freely among the prong-horned bulls.
Whoa!
Patsu’s dagger in his hand was used to curse the Pronghorn Bull without a break.
“Bad dog! Deal with it!”
Around the time half of them fell under Pato’s curse, Lucky, who was attached to the ceiling, appeared.
With the appearance of a silver-haired warrior with a visual that cannot be compared to any other model or actor.
– ah!
The mere appearance of it made the chat window burst with sighs.
But what really surprised me was what happened next.
Fu-wook!
After landing, the knife in Lucky’s hand, as if sharpened from the long fangs of some beast, pierced the body of the Pronghorn Bull as if it were piercing the head.
Power beyond common sense!
Mmmmm!
The Pronghorn Bull also screamed at its power, and at that scream, Lucky brandished his sword mercilessly.
In terms of time, I check the time once with my smartphone in my pocket and guess the schedule for the day once in my head.
After that amount of time had passed, a bull with horns collapsed on the floor and became a mannequin.
– Look at the damage!
That was the power of Lucky, the inang mode.
First of all, Lucky’s stats were much higher than those of the players, and those stats were applied as they were in In-Rang mode.
– All tems are legendary, right?
Here, all items, including the three item parts that are exclusive to Lucky, were worn at Legendary level.
Even accessories were worn.
– The weapon is an ogre tooth sword.
Crucially, the weapon was the Ogre’s Tooth Sword, the most powerful item that could be obtained in the Ogre’s Forest.
It’s strange if you’re armed with an item like that and the damage is low.
Moreover, this was not the end.
“Lucky Lightning Petrification!”
The moment Midas’ cry fell, the silver light that filled Lucky became a silver light like a flash.
In that state, he stepped on the torso of the bull with silver horns like a stepping stone and swung the sword in his hand mercilessly.
Mmmmm!
Mmmmmmm!
Lucky’s dazzling attacks continued, and the crying of the horned bulls, which had sounded like the whistle of a runaway locomotive, began to sound like a sad cry.
Since then, chatting has also subsided.
Apart from the strength, Lucky’s battle, where you can feel the beauty that other players have never shown, took the breath of not only the pronghorn bull but also the viewers.
And after a while, there was no longer a bull with a spear hanging over its head.
[You have killed the Horned Bull.]
Everyone is lying on the floor waiting for the item to be rooted as a mannequin.
All the viewers were amazed at the sight.
– Oh, Mr. Lucky is really cool.
In that admiration, Lucky smiled broadly without speaking, and at that moment, the chat window became a mess.
[Azmo sponsored $10,218.]
[Azmo: Oh, it was so cool that I sponsored it without realizing
it.] Everyone couldn’t survive without the sponsorship.
It was then.
“Good job Lucky!”
Midas, who had been holding his back without doing anything until now, appeared and the camera naturally focused on him.
At the same time, the atmosphere of the chat window changed.
– Oh, what a surprise! BJ Extra, turn on the blinker and come in, right?
– Oh, my eyes suddenly rot.
– I can’t see anything in front of me right now, but is it true that BJ extras have appeared?
– Turn the camera! Why are you taking weird poop! It’s a broadcast accident!
Midas didn’t care about the strong reaction, went near Lucky and rubbed Lucky’s shoulder.
“good job.”
Seeing that, Lucky smiled bashfully without saying anything, and that smile melted the atmosphere of the chat window once again.
– Oh, it’s healing.
– Ah, the smile is so dazzling that I can’t see the screen.
– Let me prove that people can be so moved that they die.
At that time, Midas suddenly put his arm around Lucky, and Midas’s face appeared on the screen that naturally reflected Lucky.
– Oh no!
– From now on, I will be an anti-fan of BJ Grand Mage.
The atmosphere in the chat window flared up again.
The moment when BJ’s handling is worse than that of a rat in a gutter.
“Come on, everyone. How is it? Isn’t our Lucky great?”
Nonetheless, Midas continued to speak without hesitation.
– I decided to look at this. From now on, BJ Grand Mage is my enemy.
– BJ Daemage, rather get a girlfriend! Don’t bully Lucky!
– Even after seeing this, if you suck at BJ’s great mage, it’s not black cow, it’s yellow.
ㄴ Nim, Yellowy also eats rice, right?
Then the atmosphere in the chat window exploded even more.
‘okay.’
It was the atmosphere that Midas wanted.
‘I can see the anticipation melting away.’
The high expectations for himself are now rushing to Lucky. It was the best situation for Midas, who had been suffering from the anticipation.
‘Let’s end this with Lucky.’
Of course, Midas planned to continue this momentum and entrust Lucky with the temple guardian, the boss monster of the temple of Aegis today.
‘Within 1 hour.’
In addition, Midas planned to complete all of these dungeon raids within an hour.
‘Because I have to catch Lucky while in Inlang Mode.’
Lucky’s Inlang skill had a duration of 1 hour and its cooldown was 24 hours.
‘If you take 15 minutes to catch the boss, now you just have to move for about 10 more minutes.’
In the eyes of Midas, who turned his head with the horse, he could clearly see the only path leading to the boss room where the guardian was located in this complicated road.
‘Looking at a moderately dead end.’
It would be impossible to create a more perfect production than that of Midas.
Of course, Midas said with more confidence than ever before.
“Now then, let’s go catch the boss!”
And toward such Midas, viewers said.
– The extras talk too much.
– Lucky, why don’t you throw away that ugly pet?
Midas moved forward, completely destroying the lofty expectations he had for himself.
2.
Performance of Lucky, Gold and Silver Jackpots.
The time has finally come in their activity.
[Your level has risen.]
[You have reached level 250.]
[The dragon only for war gives you a new chance.]
Midas When he reaches level 250.
“Oh yeah! Level up!”
At that fact, Midas, who had never cast a single spell in battle, cheered.
Normally, the moment when the Rising Star channel should show Midas on the screen, but this time it was different.
– What do you think the extras were yelling at?
– The extras seem to have leveled up.
– Who cares whether ugly extras level up or not? We only need to look at Lucky.
– The Rising Star channel is really unsubscribing when that screen is displayed.
The camera was still pointing at Lucky, and the viewers went beyond questioning the fact and made a strong argument.
Confirming that fact, Midas snapped his fingers and said.
“Hey, I leveled up, right? Did you receive a card reward?”
Only then did the camera take a picture of Midas, and viewers sighed at that fact.
– Why are there so many shots on the subject of extras?
– Let’s finish quickly.
– Give me one minute. Let’s take a picture and go.
Midas said in front of the viewers’ complaints.
“Ah, don’t be like that. do you know Will the Thunder Storm skill come out as a card reward here?
At that, everyone snorted.
– I heard that the probability of obtaining the Thunder Storm skill as a level up card reward is similar to the probability of winning the Powerball?
A sound that no one can see.
And it was also meaningless.
– Doesn’t it matter if you come out or not? there is anyway
– Have you already revealed your skill card and want it to come out? what? self-promotion?
After all, Midas had already secured the Thunderstorm skill card.
Midas thought the same.
‘There’s no way I’ll come out.’
If it was something that would come out so easily, I wouldn’t have received it in the first place.
Nonetheless, the reason for blowing such a comment was to lighten the atmosphere a little more.
“If something comes out, I will immediately post the skill card I have on the spot.”
Because of this, Midas bluffed.
“And I will donate that amount to society right away.”
‘It’s bullshit that’s no different from donating if you win the lottery.’
A very powerful bluff.
– You donating? By selling Thunderstorm?
– Wow, he’s a BJ master mage! Thunderstorm can’t even trade, right? But what about donating something like that?
In any case, the announcement surprised viewers.
Whatever the case may be, the value of the Thunderstorm skill card was so high and symbolic that it was difficult to trade it financially.
– I wish it came out like this. Really must!
– God please let me get the Thunderstorm card.
– Please force BJ Daemage to become a donation angel.
And don’t you donate?
Even if you do this and that, it’s a good thing for others, but there’s no reason not to wish for it and not cheer for it.
“Then let’s go. Accept the reward!”
In the prayers of such viewers, Midas received the level 250 card reward, and soon 100 cards that only he could see appeared.
In front of the card, Midas smiled.
‘When it comes out, I’ll put the intestines in my hand.’
A smile full of conviction that there was no way Thunderstorm would appear here.
‘uh? Golden?’
With such a smile, Midas froze as it was.
‘omg.’
I stared at the only shining golden card.
[Thunderstorm]
– Skill Grade: Legendary
– Skill Effect: Summons a cloud of lightning to attack randomly.
Thunderstorm.
The moment he saw it, a myriad of things came to mind in Midas’ mind.
‘ah!’
Then Midas put all those thoughts aside and shouted to himself.
‘Byeongsin, act, act! I’m live!’
Don’t be suspicious here!
“Hmm, what do you like? Which one shall I choose?”
With that cry, Midas began to roll his eyes with a relaxed expression on his face.
‘Damn why!’
A lightning storm raged inside Midas.
Did you really think the Thunderstorm card would appear here?
Actually, this was fun.
‘I promised to donate! I did it openly!’
If it wasn’t for the condition of donating, it would be fun enough to dance on the spot.
‘Let’s choose something else, something else. Is there anything else good?’
However, since he promised to donate, it was definitely better for Midas to choose a different skill card.
‘shit.’
However, none of the other cards were particularly good.
‘How come it’s not unique, and there’s no real rare?’
If there were any, there were only things that could be purchased at the auction house right away, even if they were acquired, there was nothing to use.
In fact, I didn’t have to tap the calculator any more.
‘Donation, damn it, how much is this? Donation! no what does this mean? Am I donating?’
It was definitely a moment when it was beneficial in many ways to make an issue by just donating.
Because of this, Midas prepared.
“Ah, looking closely doesn’t mean I know what’s behind the card, I’ll just go right away.”
‘Pretending not to know.’
really by chance.
“This is it! uh?”
‘Pretending to be surprised.’
As if an unexpected coincidence overlapped.
“Is it Thunderstorm?”
Pretending like that, I chose the Thunder Storm card.
– what? really?
– real? Thunderstorm came from a level up reward?
Viewers could not hide their surprise at the sight.
– ah! donation!
– Kya, as expected, BJ Daemage, if you want to donate how much, you come out like this!
– Heaven answered my prayer!
– Forced donation angel change!
And then he burst into laughter.
Midas smiled as well.
“Haha, this is definitely a good thing, so I’m lucky. It seems that heaven helps those who help.”
‘Fuck.’
Inside, I clenched my teeth tightly as if it would break.
“Then I got the card reward, so let’s start again.”
Of course, Midas did not continue the story with this subject.
‘Let’s forget it, it’s just that the card reward came out badly.’
If you continue, you will only end up hurting yourself.
“I’m going to catch the Guardian of Aegis.”
The only thing that could soothe that bitter feeling was the Aegis Orb.
‘If you go a little further, it will come out.’
In fact, he had almost reached the boss room where the Aegis guardian was located.
The timing was right.
Entering the boss battle right after Lucky plays an active role and Midas lightly refreshes the atmosphere by rewarding the level up!
There is no build-up that is more certain than this.
– uh? is there something there?
– Looks like a door?
Because of this, not long after the Midas donation event, viewers were able to face a huge door at the end of the aisle.
Viewers in front of the door no longer talked about the donation a moment ago.
– Just look at it, it’s a boss room.
-Wow, less than an hour has passed. Are you here already?
Now is the time to prepare for the final battle to be fought here.
gggg gggg!
Then, without hesitation, Midas opened the huge door.
– uh? what?
– Right in? really?
If it’s a boss battle, it’s normal to do potion doping and buffs before entering.
Of course, Midas didn’t open the door because he didn’t know that.
“For reference, I will explain the boss room. Beyond this gate is an altar, and on that altar is a shield. And there is a guardian who protects that shield.”
The moment I opened the door and started explaining, a huge space reminiscent of a baseball dome appeared, and shining marbles placed here and there in the space dimly reflected the space.
Under the light, I could see an altar rising from the middle of the space.
And on the altar, like Midas’s words, a shield emitted white light by itself, revealing its presence.
“The battle begins the moment you touch the shield.”
In the explanation that followed then, no one questioned the fact that BJ Grand Mage opened the door without hesitation.
“And while the shield is on, the physical and magic defense of the guardian is said to be almost negligible. Destroying the shield is the priority. Of course, the Guardians won’t let you try to destroy the shield. It is said that the target that attacked the shield becomes the first target for aggro.”
Instead, viewers were surprised and buzzed at Midas’ added explanation.
– Listening to the story, the boss isn’t a joke either?
– Lucky, you must be having a hard time.
– No, Gold must be having a hard time.
– Just by looking at it, Silver-sama will make tanking difficult.
– Oh, only the BJ great mage won’t suffer. shit.
Amidst the murmur, Midas raised his head and looked at the shield.
There was no worry in Midas’ mind at this moment.
‘Break the shield first and step by step.’
There was already a clear strategy, but there was no reason to worry about anything else.
Without hesitation, Midas raised his head and looked at the altar.
[Shield of Aegis]
!When destroyed, ‘Blessing of Aegis’ disappears
!When destroyed, ‘Aegis Shield’ skill card cannot be acquired
.
‘huh?’
And the accident that stopped again happened.
‘Wait a skill card? Was there such a thing?’
The moment something new, unexpected, appeared, Midas immediately tore up the scenario he had prepared in his head.
‘…. I have to eat this.’
Then, I thought about a new scenario.
‘I heard that destroying the shield and catching it is the standard, but if you want to leave the shield behind… … .’
How do I make it feel natural to deal with the Guardian without destroying the shield?
‘good.’
After thinking about it, Midas, who rewrote the scenario, started acting accordingly.
“Ah, I see the guardian under the altar over there. As I said before, to attack the Guardian, you must first destroy the shield up there.
– I know.
Lucky-sama will do it anyway, so why are there so many explanations?
– I’ll explain again. Mr. Lucky, please take away that extra mic.
Viewers who reacted sluggishly to the explanation they had already heard.
“But it’s no fun if you hold it like that.”
To such viewers, Midas made a reversal remark.
– huh?
– what?
– No jam?
Midas spoke in front of the surprised viewers.
“I’ll leave the shield and catch it.”
