The Player Hides His Past - Chapter 106
Episode 106. Ego (1)
Counterattack.
The vanguard was, of course, the decisive battle weapon [Kirnberg Machine Tower].
The Kürnberg Machine Tower was very active.
Dwarves who boasted technological prowess comparable to that of the Mage Tower, even if they went in different directions.
Wasn’t it the [Kirnberg Machine Tower] that the dwarves had built solely to hunt demons?
Koo-goo–!
Earthquakes caused by mechanical towers pushing down on the ground.
“…what is that?”
“Even run away!!”
“Aaaaaaaaa!!”
That echo is fear to demons.
“That machine is taking down demons!”
“My God…”
“This is what it is!”
It became hope for those suffering from demons.
Of course, the demons did not stand still.
To stop the mechanical tower.
They took enormous damage and entered the [Kirnberg Machine Tower].
Weiyiing—!
But that was a mistake.
[Kirnberg Machine Tower] As we confirmed in the crack, the inside of the Machine Tower was full of pitfalls. No, to the devil, it was like hell beyond the trap.
“It’s silver!! Damn you!!”
Mistaking players for competitive content.
A trap made of silver had penetrated the demon’s weakness.
The demon was finally able to stop the operation of the [Kirnberg Machine Tower] only after suffering enormous damage. Only one of dozens of mechanical towers.
“What kind of babies are they…?”
The spirit of the demons was rather broken.
Because the opponent was a non-stop machine.
It is also a decisive battle weapon that uses itself as a sacrifice to proceed with the exorcism ceremony until the very end. In the end, the demons chose to evade the [Kirnberg Machine Tower] rather than attack it.
“The Kürnberg Machine Tower is our beacon!”
“Catch the mechanical tower!”
“There is a mechanical tower behind us. Don’t back down!”
Survivors gathered in the direction the machine tower was moving.
Some used the mechanical tower as an escort to reach their destination, while others were encouraged by the mechanical tower to fight against the demons.
Is there still hope on the Arcana Continent?
The blessing of a new world tree was bestowed on them.
after the appearance of the devil.
For the first time, the demonic powers were faltering.
The news quickly spread across the continent.
Whoops-!
Vibrations felt far away.
The roar of the [Kirnberg Machine Tower] moving.
That trembling was transmitted to the dwarves hiding in the hideout.
“…Are there any survivors left in Akkshan?”
That became an opportunity for the dwarves to move.
Fluffy—!
Soon after they moved, something floated over the Arcana continent.
A flying boat so huge that it’s amazing to fly in the sky.
The concentration of Dwarven technology had started flying.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!
Bombardment from flying boats.
The Dwarf’s flying boat, along with the [Kirnberg Machine Tower], became another disaster to the demons.
Why is this happening on the Arcana continent?
Even those who fight back.
And the devil couldn’t even imagine why.
Shouldn’t that be the case?
That all of this is only from ‘one person’.
It was natural that I couldn’t even imagine it until now.
.
.
.
News from Arcana Continent delivered by a nymph.
Thanks to that, I felt a little better.
…Wow, I really did a great job.
‘I made a fuss about it as a real legacy.’
[Kürnberg Machine Tower].
It seemed to be doing a great job befitting its name as a decisive battle weapon for the great devil.
Although I thought I could properly hunt a demon from the inside.
‘To the extent that those vicious guys rather avoid it.’
Probably because of the good compatibility.
The greatest weapon of the demons was always the [status abnormality]. Why were even the elder mages of the Mage Tower, who were called demigods, swayed by [Abnormal Status]?
‘Because it’s only natural that machines don’t eat it.’
Thinking like that made me startle.
…Could Akkshan even have that compatibility in mind?
Then you really are a demon hunter.
‘From the way of thinking, it’s like the devil’s natural enemy.’
Of course, it wasn’t just admiration.
Wasn’t it the [Kirnberg Mechanical Tower] that I activated?
Yes, I have the right to do so.
[Experience is accumulated in the decisive battle weapon Kirnberg Mechanical Tower.]
[Fame is accumulated in the decisive battle weapon Kirnberg Mechanical Tower.]
[Acquired experience and acquisition rights for fame.]
Slaughter demons on the Arcana continent machine tower.
The authority to acquire the experience and reputation accumulated in the mechanical tower…!
I honestly can’t even guess. Regardless of reputation, how much experience is accumulated in the machine tower. Didn’t the nymph just say that?
“I heard that hundreds of thousands of demons rushed to stop one machine tower.”
Because that meant killing close to hundreds of thousands of demons until one mechanical tower collapsed. Roughly speaking, how much experience is this!
Greed welled up.
That’s my inside story that I can’t express to the end.
“I want to head to the continent right away.”
But this time, it made sense.
If Grandfell just wants to step on the Arcana Continent to hunt demons out of pride.
I wanted to step on the Arcana Continent in order to acquire the experience points accumulated in the [Kirnberg Machine Tower]…!
“Dozens? No, it doesn’t matter if hundreds of millions of demons block it.”
Because I have a title.
[The Last Adventurer: You will not die on the Arcana continent. Upon death, you return to reality immediately and cannot access the Arcana Continent for a certain period of time. – Cooldown: 24 hours]
Even if you don’t know it in reality or cracks.
At least on the Arcana Continent, there is no worry of drowning due to the pride of death.
So, if you somehow find a way to access the Arcana Continent…!
‘It’s like winning the lottery.’
I was the one who spoke with such an impure meaning.
Did you feel even more spleen in my words?
The nymph opened her mouth.
“I can count that feeling.”
Then he spoke.
“But I don’t think you need to worry too much for the time being. Thanks to the mechanical tower and the Dwarves, the demons seem to be in great confusion.”
Oh, I can’t forget about the dwarves either.
I rolled my head.
Why did the Dwarves who were still moving?
If I had to point out the reason, it would be the [Kürnberg Machine Tower].
The specific circumstances surrounding it were unknown.
‘…I think there’s something there.’
Just what you can expect.
It was as if the dwarves knew something about the [Extinction of Akkshan]. Of course, it wasn’t something to worry about right now. If it has anything to do with it, it will come up on the quest target.
‘But it doesn’t stink like the Goddess Church.’
to hunt demons.
that it reappeared on the continent.
Even if the dwarves had circumstances.
It is not a tribe without pride.
Because the pride in my heart was telling me.
“The day will come when I will meet them too.”
The nymph’s report is organized there.
While I was talking, I asked the nymph.
I wonder if you know anything about the activities of the Goddess Church.
The nymph shook her head gracefully.
“no. both in the past and in the future. I have not heard anything about their activities.”
Nymphs are forest spirits.
The spirit of the forest was able to communicate with trees and was well informed about the Arcana Continent.
Even such nymphs have not heard any news about the Goddess Church’s activities in the recent past or in the past
…
Is it judgment day?
Just waiting for the day to do something.
I was sure
‘It’s also copper.’
Blasphemy and what.
The Goddess Church needs to be overturned, right?
Of course it won’t be easy.
Above all, the Goddess Church was a huge force.
You don’t have to go far, just look at the commotion in the community.
Even if there are only paladins waiting in Muon, he must have said that there were close to 100,000… That’s not enough, because he didn’t even allow players from the same Goddess Order to access.
‘The Holy Land Muon is an impregnable fortress.’
I had to encounter a saint who was neither a saint nor a saint in such a muon. It’s already daunting, but what I had to do right now was simple.
To stand up to the forces, I have no choice but to become gigantic.
So a journey of a thousand miles starts with one step.
If you have entered the rift, start by leveling up.
Of course, I have no intention of selling just one well.
I said to Clé, who had been silent for a while.
“Skilled wizard Cleodia.”
“yes yes?! I didn’t hear anything. No, even if you heard, I will keep the secret until the end. I didn’t overhear it because I wanted to overhear it…!”
“Know.”
Even the Mechanical Tower World Tree Dwarves.
Actually, it’s nothing like my pride.
Due to my personality, I would reveal it confidently, but it was not a story that I could hide.
However, it is also when someone who is not the person concerned hastily brags about someone else’s story.
“You just have to behave in a manner that suits you.”
something out of the ordinary.
At my words, Cle nodded as if he had been waiting.
“Yes, of course! Everything according to formality and procedure… I will focus on my purpose of gathering non-herb. Call me if you have anything to say!”
Hurrying—
Klee pulled his hand out of the loose robe and reached for a leaf growing in the cave. A blade of grass that emits a soft blue light. Anyone could see that it was a precious medicinal herb.
But I opened my mouth again.
“Cleodia.”
“…yes yes!”
“There is a procedure for gathering non-herb.”
“…yes?”
“Look around.”
“?!”
[Spirit of the mercenary Mosspike: Lv.560]
[Spirit of the mercenary Mosphike: Lv.560]
[Spirit of the mercenary Mosphike: Lv.560]…
It was an instant.
The moment Klee reaches for the elixir.
Sussss—
the ghosts surrounded Klee.
“Aww!”
It was as if Klee had been waiting for the moment to pick the elixir.
He was hiding on the wall of the cave, staring at Klee with only his head exposed.
“Thank you. Chief…!”
Klee was frightened and withdrew his hand from the elixir.
then he asked me
“Does the chief know about that elixir?”
every know
Because I had the knowledge I acquired through [The Pentagram of Pure Knowledge].
That knowledge was telling.
What is the name of that elixir?
“Gwisaengcho.”
“Gwisaengcho? As expected, it is the first time I have heard of it in my narrow knowledge…”
“It is natural that I am ignorant. Cleodia.”
It’s natural that you don’t know
Because gwisaengcho was never a common herbal medicine.
I recited the effect.
“Gwisaengcho has the power to attract souls. That’s why it’s also used as an ingredient for the elixir of the necromancer. However, to those who do not know its value, it is just an ominous plant that summons ghosts.”
It was only then that Claire seemed to realize.
“Necromancer… So it’s not known.”
Because Necromancers weren’t common on the Arcana continent.
Among the players, the Necromancer class was extremely rare.
Until the condition of the former was not known. It was said that it was to the point of being treated as a hidden class.
However, the gwisaengcho is not known.
‘It’s not necessarily the only reason.’
I looked at the ghosts with a clear expression of regret.
Are you trying to soothe your regrets with me?
Soon, those who had escaped from the wall took a combat stance.
‘But you guys picked the wrong opponent.’
Even if I have a sword at my side.
After all, he’s a wizard.
He is also the chief mage of the Mage Tower.
‘Even though it’s a parachute.’
Just like demon hunters and demons are natural enemies.
Sorcerers and ghosts have a natural enemy relationship no less than that.
I raised my magic power and opened my mouth.
“A question. Cleodia.”
“…question? Yes, I will do my best to answer!”
“Do you think that a wild plant with such a peculiar effect could grow anywhere?”
“Ugh no! Non-medicinal herbs are plants that are closely influenced by the environment!”
“Klee-sama is well versed in medicinal herbs.”
“Oh no! The level that the Spirit would praise so much…!!”
As Nymph said, the answer is correct.
Even the contemplative mistletoe collected in [The Predator’s Swamp]. Under the small influence of the World Tree seeds, it was able to grow from an ordinary mistletoe into a noble non-herb.
“Then, what factors do you think the gwisaengcho was influenced by and grew here in the Mantra Mine?”
“Well, that’s…”
Claire didn’t answer easily.
It’s not something I’m going to ask.
It’s natural that you can’t answer.
I wouldn’t have guessed at all if it wasn’t for the knowledge of all plant minerals acquired through the [Pentagram of Pure Knowledge].
‘Gwisaengcho only grows where ghost iron is buried.’
If only it were rare.
The mineral that can be counted on one finger.
Buried in the closed Mantra Mine.
Spooky—!
The ghosts of Mosspike’s mercenaries rushing at me.
Yes, I can understand if you are a noble.
Those mercenaries must have set foot in the Mantra Mine, aiming for valuable precious iron. However, precious iron cannot be easily obtained or easily smelted.
Of course, it doesn’t matter to me.
harvest?
Because there was [the pentagram of pure knowledge].
smelt?
Including ear iron.
Any mineral can be smelted.
News about the dwarves.
I had just heard from the nymph a while ago.
‘So the problem is that you’re the only one.’
Expedited search and interference.
I manifested magic.
Awesome—!
“!!!”
The ghosts were frozen as they were.
