The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player - Chapter 121 (Part 2)
Chapter 121: Round 8 Ends (Part 2)
After Round 8 ended.
Christine immediately went to see her father as soon as she opened her eyes.
“Father.”
“You’re late.”
Jeffrey, the butler, was already by her father’s side.
She felt disappointed, even though she thought she had come quickly.
“Have you heard?”
“Yes, Jeffrey told me everything.”
Father Nathan’s eyes sparkled.
“That Ryu Min’s prophecy was all true.”
“Yes. I was honestly surprised. It was hard to believe.”
The information about the 8th round quest that she heard from Ma Kyug-rok turned out to be true.
Unlike the vague information from the 7th round, it was specific information, making it undeniable.
The existence of a profession called ‘prophet’ is real.
“Your fiancé has been preempting the next round’s information through prophecy, it seems.”
“That seems to be the case.”
Christine’s lips curled slightly.
She felt slighted that he had kept it from her.
“What will you do now?”
“Excuse me?”
“A prophet is working with your fiancé. If handled well, you too can benefit from seeing the future. Shouldn’t you seize that opportunity?”
“Seize? The prophet?”
“Of course. In these troubled times, a prophet is no different from a goose that lays golden eggs. If you can learn the strategies for the next round in advance, that would be great.”
With survival directly linked to each round, the value of information is immense.
“Become close to that person. Do not hesitate to use any means necessary.”
“But…”
“Is there something bothering you? Do you still not believe in the prophecy?”
“That’s not it. It’s just… I find it uncomfortable to deliberately approach someone with an ulterior motive…”
“Is this the time to be concerned about such things? Isn’t he the one holding your life in his hand?”
Christine remembered.
The prophet’s words about a dangerous incident in the 11th round.
“Go to Korea. Obtain more information from him. Find out more about how to survive the next round. Ensure that the 11th round does not bring the end of your life.”
“…Yes.”
Christine obediently answered her father’s words.
One must look after their own interests.
To survive, she needed more information.
“Then, I’m tired, so I’ll take my leave now.”
After Christine left, Jeffrey, as if waiting, asked.
“What should I do? Should I continue to monitor that prophet in Korea?”
“No. Now that the existence of the prophet is confirmed, there’s no need to secretly gather information. Besides, if our spying is discovered and offends the prophet, it could be troublesome.”
“Then…”
“Follow Christine to Korea. Go as an attendant and observe what kind of person the prophet is from the sidelines, and report back to me.”
“I will carry out your command in the name of God.”
After Jeffrey bowed and left the room, Nathan muttered to himself.
“A prophet, huh? Truly a being that could be called an apostle of God.”
The thought suddenly occurred to him.
‘If only my daughter’s fiancé were not Mr. Ma but that prophet.’
A look of regret appeared on Nathan’s face.

The first thing Ryu Min did upon waking up in his room was to open the store.
‘All the items in the store have been upgraded to Master grade.’
The store updates its items for sale according to the player’s grade.
Having surpassed level 60, he could now purchase Master grade equipment.
‘But they’re still unremarkable Common items.’
Most players would outfit themselves with these Common items.
If they had a bit of money, they might own a few Rare or Epic items from the daily item corner.
‘But from now on, I won’t deal with anything below Epic.’
Starting today, Ryu Min planned to outfit himself with Unique grade or higher equipment.
He had purchased all the materials through the Player Place app, so he had enough to create three items.
‘Where should I start?’
Ryu Min bought helmets, armor, shoes, and rings, each for 6,000 gold from the store.
All were unimpressive Common items, but they were Master grade.
‘Soon, they’ll transform into Unique grade.’
Ryu Min filled the slot with the equipment and ordered Unique materials.
[Main Material]
– Agile Boots
[Sub Materials]
– Deerwood Root
– Orc’s Tusk
– Troll’s Spine
– Hard Magical Shell
– Blacksteel
He put Unique materials in the sub-materials and the recently purchased Master grade equipment as the main material.
‘This combination will transform the Normal equipment into Unique.’
He pressed the button, and a welcome message appeared.
[Combination Successful!]
[You have created ‘Ghostwalk Boots’.]
[Ghostwalk Boots]
– Category: Shoes
– Grade: Unique
– Defense: 300
– Effect: All stats +15, Movement speed +15%, Footsteps are silent.
– Durability: 5,000/5,000
– Usage Restriction: Master grade or higher
– Description: Shoes that make your footsteps silent like a ghost. It really feels like becoming a ghost.
A Unique item was created.
He continued to create other items.
[Combination Successful!]
[You have created ‘Demon’s Ring’.]
[Combination Successful!]
[You have created a ‘Red-Eyed Skull Ring’.]
Having made 3 Unique items, he had used up all his collected materials.
‘Now, what’s left is the God tier item.’
Ryu Min had been contemplating.
Which should be the first God-tier item to make.
Weapon, helmet, armor, etc., the performance would differ depending on the part.
But the contemplation didn’t last long.
‘It’s best to start with what I can make right now.’
He couldn’t choose material items for a reward, so he decided to make them as they came.
Each part requires slightly different items.
‘With the materials I currently have, I can make…’
Ryu Min placed the God-tier material items on the combination window.
[Main Material]
– Faded Coat
[Sub Materials]
– Condensed Ether
– Black Iron Powder
– Shiny Horse Tail
– Angel’s Golden Dust
– Mandragora’s Magic Stem
‘…An armor.’
He immediately pressed the combination button.
Accompanied by an unusual golden effect, the item was created.
A God-tier item, no less.
