BJ Archmage - Chapter 359
Chapter 359. < Episode 112. Blind date (2). >
4.
In God Wars, there are two Legendary skills that wizard players can learn at level 300.
Flame Dragon and Blaster.
Of course, the one with the highest recognition and popularity was the Flame Dragon.
First of all, the visuals were overwhelming.
The moment I cast the skill, a huge magic circle appeared above my head, and the moment a dragon made of flames came out of the magic circle, admiration came out naturally.
Damage was also overwhelming.
Among the monsters below level 400 that have appeared so far, except for the boss monsters, no one has survived the flame dragon that runs out of the magic circle and invades the battlefield.
Lastly, it was rare.
The number of people with the Flame Dragon skill is less than the number of US Powerball winners, so what explanation is needed?
‘I’m treated like a chicken instead of a phoenix.’
Because Flame Dragon and Blaster were treated more like chickens instead of pheasants.
‘And most often eat chicken instead of phoenix dishes.’
However, in terms of practicality, the blaster was sometimes held in higher esteem.
‘Because eating a phoenix is a waste.’
First of all, the cooldown and casting time of the Flame Dragon skill was too long.
The cooldown is more than 1 hour even if the cooldown reduction set is equipped.
Even with three casting speeds, a casting time of at least 5 minutes was required, so most of them were memorized and used in advance.
To be honest, it was ambiguous to use in general battles, and it was a skill that was used at the end of a boss battle.
‘I have to be careful when eating.’
It was too strong at the same time.
If you use it incorrectly, you can easily destroy allies as well as enemies.
Blaster, on the other hand, was the exact opposite.
‘On the contrary, chicken is easy to cook, quick and convenient.’
Not only did it have strong damage compared to its short cooldown and casting time, but it was also very easy to use.
Like a beam attack, it just penetrated plants and stones.
Its attack speed was so fast that it was impossible to dodge once it was properly aimed, and it was easy to hit.
It’s a chicken-like skill that allows you to eat whatever you want whenever you want.
For that reason, when there was an argument over the two skills, the fire was not extinguished as easily as expected.
Of course, the answer to that argument was simple.
‘Well, I just need to use it in the right place when needed anyway.’
Azmo said, Then you can have both, right?
[Flame Dragon]
– Skill Rank: F
– Skill Effect: Creates a huge magic circle that summons the Flame Dragon. As the skill rank increases, the flame dragon’s active time increases.
[Blaster]
– Skill Rank: F
– Skill Effect: Unleashes a powerful beam attack that cannot be blocked by any obstacles.
“Big.”
This was the reason Midas smiled deeply as he looked at the two skills in front of him.
‘It’s awesome, it’s awesome.’
The moment when the best spec up you can think of is over.
Moreover, it did not end here.
‘One more golem was added here.’
According to the effect of the Golem’s Truth skill, the number of golems that Midas can summon at level 300 has now increased by one.
‘Wasn’t the flame dragon also summoned? One more?’
Here, not one but two flame dragons will appear due to Midas’ one-more effect.
Crucially, Midas had that left.
‘Then let’s finish with Legendary Epic.’
The skill card book Midas received from NPC Algamas immediately opened the skill card book he had hidden in his inventory.
And in the splendid emerald light that appeared, Midas was able to find it right away.
[Flame Dragon]
– Skill Grade: Legendary Epic
– Skill Effect: Creates a huge magic circle that summons the Flame Dragon. As the skill rank increases, the flame dragon’s active time increases. After completing all activities, the Flame Dragon disappears with a powerful explosion.
The moment he saw it, Midas froze for a moment.
I imagined it to be solid.
The sight of the flame dragon appearing and harmonizing with silver, roaming the battlefield, then exploding and annihilating everything.
Panting!
“What is going on, Master?”
And the figure of Gold and Lucky remaining firm in the sight.
The moment he saw it, Midas’s worries were now one.
‘All I have to do is decide who the blind date will be.’
Deciding on a blind date.
At that point, Midas’ happy smile disappeared.
‘The problem is that we’re in a blind date war right now.’
Erasing his smile, Midas recalled the events taking place in the Black Forest.
5.
– Is the Black Forest still noisy?
b don’t say Everyone is at war because they want to go on a blind date with BJ Tsushima.
ㄴ It’s so hard to go on a blind date with BJ Tsushima.
Countless players are fighting a bloody war to enter the Forgotten Lands.
– Wow! The taste of watching live these days is different.
– As expected, the view across the river is the best!
– Popcorn melts easily!
And around the time when the viewers went crazy about the situation.
– Jackpot case! An accident occurred during Gorgo Guild live broadcast!
b What is it?
ㄴ The Red Skull guild chooses and attacks the guild!
b what? real?
ㄴ I was attacked during a live broadcast! Take away the evidence!
The conflict between the Gorgo Guild and the Red Skull Guild that erupted around that time shocked and terrified everyone.
It was such a huge event.
The two guilds were one of the rivalries representing God Wars in the first place.
– Already picked and killed one guild member!
ㄴ Oh my God, then you’re choosing and starting the guild again, right?
ㄴ I’m going to pick a restart from now on, and the guild will try to get in the way of the Red Skull.
ㄴI don’t think it’s just a bitch? At this level, a blind date with BJ the great mage is not important, isn’t it just a war?
This incident between the two was not simply a one-time conflict.
– The Gorgo Guild posted a notice. I’m going to kill the Red Skull, but I’ll kill those who get in the way.
– The red hair immediately answered the live broadcast. This time, he will catch Medusa and change his nickname to Hercules.
Isn’t it Perseus, not Hercules?
life-and-death decision.
The moment the two guilds openly revealed their will, the public reaction was one.
– There must be no idiot trying to put a spoon here, right?
– If you intervene in this fight, you will go to the real goal.
– If a shrimp gets caught in a whale fight, the shell comes off and it’s like a snack.
That any intervention in the war between the two would be impossible.
“Wow, because of BJ’s blind date, Medusa and red hair are at war.”
The breaking news made the offices of the Rising Star Channel also agitated.
“It doesn’t look like BJ Grand Mage is not a joke. I can’t believe I’ll make these two fight properly.”
“The charm of BJ Grand Mage is amazing.”
“Of course not great. He’s one of the most famous players in God Wars right now, and he’s incredibly rich in real life. And you’re solo, aren’t you?”
“No, but are you sure you’re single?”
“I’ve become famous to this point, but seeing that there aren’t any dating rumors or posts about being ex-lovers, you must be really single.”
“Yes.”
“Anyway, great, great. In God Wars, the only thing that makes these two fight is BJ Archmage.”
I knew the reputation of BJ Grand Mage was great, but could it be this much?
Of course, Park Young-jun thought differently.
‘The two of them joined hands.’
The moment Park Young-joon heard the news, he could immediately realize that this was the work of the two guilds.
‘If this happens, it will be ambiguous to intervene between the two.’
Interfering in a situation where two guilds, and a famous guild that ranks high among tier 1 guilds, is in a life-or-death situation is tantamount to committing suicide.
‘The death of the player must have been staged.’
Moreover, on the surface, the Gorgo Guild was virtually eliminated from this race due to the death of a party member.
It means that you don’t have to choose right away and keep the guild in check.
‘The two guilds must have divided the 50-person party into 25 people each.’
However, Park Young-jun saw through even that.
‘The remaining 25 are for directing purposes.’
In order to enter the Forgotten Land, a party of 50 must survive in the Black Forest for 33 hours without a single game over.
The key here was that it only needed to be a party of 50 people.
As Park Young-joon said, it didn’t matter if you formed a party of 50 people, 25 people from the guild and 25 people from the Red Skull Guild.
‘It will look like a bloody war.’
However, in the eyes of a third party, it will look like a fierce war that kills and kills each other.
Of course, the moment this fact was revealed, the two guilds would receive considerable criticism from the public.
‘I’ll do anything for a blind date.’
In other words, it means that BJ’s blind date is as important as that.
At the same time, it meant that the two of them were planning to deal with the BJ Archmage at the same time.
‘It won’t be easy.’
It was never good news for BJ Grand Mage.
Regardless of this, a formidable enemy appeared.
‘There’s no way the two of them would go this far just to have a blind date with BJ Daemado. There must be someone who served as a bridge in the middle and provided merit.’
And in Park Young-joon’s view, it wasn’t just the two of them.
‘It’s not going to happen with my gamnyang.’
That’s why Park Yeongjun made an arbitrary judgment in front of this situation and did not move to practice.
‘BJ Grand Mage will also figure out the situation and come up with a countermeasure. Then I leave the judgment to BJ Archmage.’
This is the part where BJ’s great mage needs to make a decision.
Actually, I didn’t have any worries about that part.
So far, the BJ Grand Mage has made surprising and wise decisions that even Park Young-joon would stick out his tongue.
This time, his judgment would have been better than that of Park Yeongjun.
Rather, at this point, Park Young-joon was also curious.
‘I wonder what BJ Grand Mage is preparing right now.’
6.
[A new item has been added to the inventory.]
“Ugh.”
The moment he checked the items in his inventory, Midas let out a deep sigh.
The moment Midas reached level 300, he didn’t seem happier than ever.
The reason was none other than the BJ Grand Mage battle taking place in the Black Forest.
‘Damn, I thought the atmosphere was bloody… … Isn’t this too much?’
To be honest, I didn’t expect Midas to be so competitive.
In particular, he did not dare to imagine that the Gorgo Guild and the Red Skull Guild would fight because of him.
‘This is dangerous.’
In fact, it wasn’t a very good situation for Midas.
First of all, the fact that two famous guilds collided because of him was an awkward situation for Midas.
No matter who wins, the damage will be great on both sides, and in the end, some of those involved will blame Midas.
‘It’s best to do it with one of them… … I won’t go out like this.’
And circumstantially, there was a high possibility that the two guilds would not succeed in the quest to enter the Forgotten Land.
In other words, it means that you are excluded from the blind date.
It was regrettable for Midas and Rising Star channels that two people with the ticket power to mobilize 100 million viewers each, not anywhere else, were excluded from the blind date candidates.
‘Rather than that, if you go on a blind date like this, you shouldn’t feel bad about the treatment.’
Crucially, due to the war between the two, BJ’s blind date seat became too valuable.
From Midas’ point of view, should we just say hello to the players who came to the blind date and go on a date while catching our ancient Tgarna? It is something that cannot be finished at the level of doing.
At least as much as they tried, Midas needed to be willing to give gifts and treats.
‘I should have brought a dragon rare… … .’
It means that after a blind date, you have to take them to a great place for a date.
‘It’s too bad… … .’
From Midas’ point of view, this was not to be desired.
It is obvious that the dragon rare is overflowing with expensive items.
It is manners and courtesy to gently put at least one delicious thing into your date’s mouth.
‘shit.’
In any case, from Midas’ point of view, if things went wrong, he might share the dragon rare with his blind date.
‘Let’s break the quest first.’
Of course, Midas had no choice but to take heavy steps as he moved to the place where the NPC Algamas was.
“Here you are.”
Soon after, Midas faced the NPC Algamas again and immediately took action.
As he had requested, he sprinkled ancient Tgar’s wick around him.
1,000 finger-sized tree fragments filled the surroundings of NPC Algamas.
“Fireball.”
After that, Midas took out a fireball and lightly threw it towards the wick.
Perong!
With an intense sound, Tgar’s wick began to burn with bluish smoke.
‘uh?’
The fire was more intense than Midas thought.
Fire!
The height of the flames reached over 30 meters!
NPC Algamath’s body began to melt in the intense flames.
To be precise, the stone covering NPC Algamas melted.
Seeing that, Midas was worried.
‘Aren’t you going to burn to death like this?’
Worried about whether the NPC Algamas will be safe in this fire.
Then a voice was heard in the flames.
“Finally I am free.”
Eventually, the NPC Algamas, who had regained freedom, trembled in the flames.
Surprisingly, there was not the slightest bit of soot from the NPC Algamas despite the constant burning flames.
Midas did not question that fact.
‘oh my god.’
Because I saw it in his eyes.
[Argamath’s Cloak]
– Grade: Legendary Epic
– Wearable level: 300 or higher
– It is the cloak of Algamas. It is made from the skin of a red dragon. By absorbing the wearer’s mana, it can exert strong resistance from fire.
– Intellect +751
– Magic +831
– Magic Attack Power +30
– Magic Defense +30%
– Abnormal Status Resistance +50%
– When hit by a fire attack, magic power is consumed instead of physical strength.
A ridiculous option for the robe worn by Algamas.
It was literally.
‘If I get hit by a fire attack, I’ll consume my magic first?’
Although conditional, there had never been an item that did not take any damage from fire attacks.
And it had to be.
‘Fire-type wizards will foam at the mouth when they see it.’
In certain occupational groups, is this a game? Because it was an item that deserved to be called.
‘Wait, wasn’t this the reward for this quest?’
At that time, the moment Midas’ accident led to the quest reward, the NPC Algamas, who had regained his freedom, waved his hand lightly.
Then, the flames that had risen like mad were sucked into the palm of his hand.
“Thank you for giving me my freedom back.”
Then NPC Algamas lightly bowed his head.
“So now is the time to repay the favor. Do you want anything from me?”
“The robe you’re wearing…. .
Could you please grove that question? Midas, who was about to spit out an answer, barely swallowed the answer.
‘I’ll just give it to you anyway, so let’s not ask for it. Pretending to know is also funny.’
I have an eye for items, but your robe looks amazing. So give it to me. Didn’t you say you’d give it as a quest reward anyway? If I say “I’ve seen it all,” the NPC Algamas will do that, and there’s nothing they can do about it.
It was such an extraordinary case.
“…. is so cool Oh, I want to know where this map points.”
According to common sense, the word that needed to come out now was not a robe, but a map.
“map?”
Soon, the moment Midas took out the map, the NPC Algamas said with surprised eyes.
“I’m surprised that a map showing the dragon’s nest remains.”
Then, looking at Midas, he said with even more surprised eyes.
“And the fact that there are people who visit the dragon’s nest is even more surprising.”
NPC Algamas continued to explain to Midas who tilted his head at those words.
“Dragon is the only being that can eat a god, and that is why this place has become a forgotten land. No god would want the world to remember where the nest of the dragon that threatened him was located.”
It means that the land is not tolerated by the gods.
‘I don’t think the difficulty is a joke.’
In response to that explanation, Midas raised the difficulty level of the Dragon Rare he had envisioned.
“Of course, you must have known about him to some extent and came prepared. I won’t give you any advice. As promised, I will tell you the location.”
At that time, NPC Algamas snapped his fingers, and the cloak he was wearing moved on its own, separated from NPC Algamas, and soon approached Midas.
‘at las!’
Midas said with a thrilled expression at the reward he had been waiting for.
“Yes, thank you very much!”
At that moment, Midas reached for Algamath’s cloak.
Poof!
Then Algamath’s cloak fell back and he quickly avoided Midas’ hand.
‘huh?’
Seeing that sight, Midas stretched out his hand several times to grab the cloak with a questioning expression on his face.
swish swish!
However, Algamath’s cloak lazily avoided Midas’ hand, as if it hadn’t even begun.
Eventually, Midas, who gave up on catching him, looked at the NPC Algamas and said.
“How do I catch him?”
At that question, NPC Algamas tilted her head and said.
“The cloak is only a guide.”
“A guide?”
“There is a map, but it is not a place where you can explain and go.”
As if responding to NPC Algamath’s words, the cloak moved as if asking him to follow him.
‘ah.’
Only then did Midas understand what it meant to give the mantle of Algamas as a reward, and made an expression as if he had lost his country.
NPC Algamas spoke to Midas.
“It’s up to you to enter the dragon’s lair as a guide.”
[A new quest has been updated in the Main Scenario Quest section.]
Then, the quest window appeared.
[Dragon Rare]
– Quest Rating: Main scenario
– Quest Level: Below level 339
– Quest Content: Let’s follow the mantle of Algamas and enter the depths of the Dragon Rare.
– Quest Reward: None
!Once the quest is completed, you can proceed to the ‘Giant Tomb’

!Title Reward recognized by the mantle of Algamas: Rune (all stats +33) paid
!Additional reward: Algamath’s Cloak
“Just to give you some advice, be prepared and prepared. Remember why this place has become a forgotten land. There are people who do not want what is here to be revealed to the world.”
At the advice of NPC Algamas that came out with the quest window, Midas did not worry any longer.
‘Let’s go for safe bread.’
Let’s break the dragon rarity strategy with a blind date partner.
