The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player - Chapter 121 (Part 1)
Chapter 121: Round 8 Ends (Part 1)
**[Traitor Group Quest]**
– Prevent the guild from reaching its destination
– Reward upon success: Mandragora’s Magic Stem
[You have completed the Traitor Group Quest!]
[As a reward for completing the Traitor Group Quest, you will receive ‘Mandragora’s Magic Stem’.]
[Mandragora’s Magic Stem]
– Category: Possession
– Description: A stem containing the magic of the man-eating monster, Mandragora.
Note that the reward for the traitor quest is the same as that for sub-quests.
Therefore, if someone had completed a sub-quest, they would have said this upon receiving their reward:
– What am I supposed to do with this?
It’s a natural reaction to receive an item without knowing its use.
Ryu Min had the same reaction when he first received it.
– I never expected to receive a material item as a quest reward. Usually, you get something you can use right away.
But, on second thought, it means that it’s an item of great importance.
I didn’t know its value before, but now I do.
‘Because the Mandragora’s Magic Stem is none other than a God-tier material item.’
I had planned to create a God-tier item before the 11th round, but now I have all the materials needed.
A smile spread across Ryu Min’s face for this reason.
Regardless, the angel was only concerned with its own tasks.
[All rankings have been confirmed, right? Then, players from 1st to 1,083rd place will survive, and the rest will be annihilated.]
“Ah, no!”
“Please save me! Jeba…!”
As always, half of the players turned into a handful of ashes.
Though it was unfortunate, Ryu Min had no time to care about the annihilation of others.
Because the reward messages appeared one after another.
[Congratulations! You have achieved 1st place in the quest for this area!]
[Congratulations! You have achieved 1st place in the quest across all areas!]
[Your current rank is 1st place in all areas and 1st place in this area.]
[As a reward for ranking 1st in this area’s ranking, you will receive a ‘Reputation Increase Ticket’.]
[As a reward for ranking 1st in the overall area’s ranking, you will receive a ‘Special Reward Selection Box’.]
Normally, the reward for being 1st in an area would be equipment items, but this time it was different.
‘A reputation increase ticket, huh… Others might wonder what kind of reward this is.’
But it is indeed a reward.
A great reward actually.
It’s an opportunity to increase reputation with other races without any effort.
‘It’s also a message to start working on reputation seriously.’
Until now, it hasn’t come up, but from now on, the fantasy world with NPCs will be the main stage.
In that regard, reputation with races is important.
Considering what you can gain from other races, the importance of reputation cannot be overstated.
[You can choose one of the following races to increase your reputation with.]
[Please touch the race you want.]
– 1. Humans (The Last Time Regressor-Hostile)
– 2. Elves (Black Scythe-Friendly)
– 3. Dwarves (Ahead of The Pack-Friendly)
The application of reputation varies by nickname and title.
For example, if you meet a dwarf and you’re not using the title “Ahead of the Pack,” you won’t receive the same treatment.
‘First of all, we need to raise Friendly to very Friendly.’
The decision was not difficult.
Ryu Min’s finger pointed towards the elves.
[The reputation of ‘Black Scythe’ with the elves has increased from ‘Friendly’ to ‘Very Friendly’.]
The reason for choosing elves was simple.
‘Because it will lead to better rewards.’
If I had raised it with dwarves, I might have laid the groundwork for obtaining Legendary and God-tier materials.
But, when you think about it, raising it with elves is better. Those who are proficient in magic have many rare rune fragments.
Ryu Min valued the worth of runes more than items.
Both are important, but if he had to choose, it would be the elves.
‘Now, when I meet the elves under the name of Black Scythe, they will treat me as if I were royalty.’
‘Perhaps the elders who control the power in Elsorium will hand over the princess to me.’
To maintain a friendly relationship.
‘But that doesn’t matter to me. I just want the rune fragments.’
There were a few rune fragments Ryu Min wanted from the elves.
Looking forward to meeting the elves next time, he used the special reward selection box.
[You can choose one of the following special rewards.]
[Please touch the reward you want.]
– 1. Material Item Selection Right
– 2. 30,000 Gold
– 3. Information about Round 9
There was always a stat or experience buff in option 1, but not this time.
Without hesitation, he chose the Material Item Selection Right.
[Choose one of the following materials.]
– 1. Broken Ironwood Branch
…
– 8. Mage Skeleton’s Bone Dust
– 9. Hard Magical Shell
– 10. Behemoth’s Horn
Most of the items that came up were unique materials.
‘But only one of them is a Legendary material.’
Ryu Min’s finger selected number 8.
[Mage Skeleton’s Bone Dust]
– Category: Possession
– Description: An ominous magic power is felt from the powder.
This makes the third Legendary material.
Just two more to go.
Materials are being collected steadily.
