Episode 64
“Whoa, this isn’t easy.”
X lightly shrugged his shoulders. Beads of sweat formed on my forehead, showing that climbing a 10,000-year coral reef was not that easy. Slippery! When his foot slipped, X quickly regained his balance.
‘Are you saying something that isn’t moss or moisture keeps bothering you?’
A unique energy emanating from a 10,000-year-old coral reef.
An indescribable energy kept holding X’s ankles. On the contrary, those that live on coral reefs for 10,000 years receive energy and improve their abilities.
Of course, he was no match for X.
“It’s because it took so long.”
puck!
X indifferently struck the coral hermit crab that had raised its pincers as high as it could. A whopping level 350! Although he was much stronger than the guys living on other islands, he couldn’t even offer a small resistance in front of X. X took the loot.
What came out were ingredients.
X thought calmly.
‘Climbing a 10,000-year-old coral reef is more difficult than expected.’
I will climb to the top of the perennial coral reef in half a day and take care of the perennial coral reef!
X had a grand plan, but it was impossible at this speed.
But there was something that made the impossible possible.
X smiled and took out a pot.
“It’s time to show off your skills.”
Heavenly cuisine!
The reason why But what if you are free from that energy?
“What’s half a day? 10 minutes is enough.”
Lululala. X hummed and used Heavenly Cooking. Ssssss! The shadow of the Gourmet King led X. X watched the movements carefully and memorized the recipe.
‘It’s something new every time I see it.’
The skills of the king of gourmets that I have seen several times every day.
However, every time I see it, the gourmet king has a surprising variety of recipes. Even X, who had limited knowledge about cooking, could now guess that the gourmet king’s skills were top-notch.
Fried hermit crab snowflakes ready in an instant!
Beautiful and appetizing appearance.
After a moment of admiration, X took a bite of the fries.
Crunchy!
[Heavenly taste buds have discovered the hidden taste in ‘Fried Hermit Crab Snow Flowers’!] [The
energy of the perennial coral reef permeated into the hermit crab is absorbed into your body!]
[You are free to do activities in the perennial coral reef for 24 hours! ]
[For 24 hours, your stamina and mana regeneration at the Permanent Coral Reef are doubled!]
[Your intuition at the Permanent Reef is greatly increased for 24 hours!]
“It was so good!”
Mumbling.
X smiled and pursed his lips. Now you will no longer have to stumble on a 10,000-year coral reef. In addition, physical strength and mana regeneration greatly increased by two-fold.
‘We won’t give up the 10,000-year-old coral tree easily.’
Boss monster or named monster!
Perennial coral water could be said to be the greatest treasure that could be obtained from an archipelago of perennial coral reefs. In that case, it is natural that there is a guardian to protect the treasure.
‘Considering the level of regular monsters…’
Basically, the monsters that appear are level 300 to 350.
As for the boss monster, it was bound to be a much stronger enemy than the Abyss Slayer, even if it wasn’t as good as the Seahawk. Even though it was a named monster, there was no room for relief.
“I was saving the bear stance for that.”
The strongest morale skill, Bear Stance!
After finishing his meal, X started climbing the 10,000-year coral reef again. No matter how strong an enemy is waiting for you! X had no confidence in losing.
‘It would be more fun if we were stronger than the Seahawks.’
The stronger you are, the higher the chance of spitting out good items.
Moreover, even if one dies, there is death denial. X, who was very greedy, was not satisfied with not being able to increase his mastery of Death Denial. Light! X continued to walk and think.
‘As your skill level increases, you will be resurrected as a higher-level undead.’
X has so far been resurrected only as a skeleton soldier. However, if the skill level increases and you can be resurrected as a higher-level undead than a skeleton, you can later be resurrected as a fearsome undead such as a death knight or lich.
I want to increase my mastery of death denial.
I want to get a slightly better item.
X prayed with an earnest heart.
“Please be a strong guy!”
X wants to suffer on his own. And not long after, a powerful enemy appeared in front of X. chuck! X took out the traveler’s sword.
‘Named Monster!’
Named monster, the 10,000-year sea serpent!
It was truly a huge thing that made you feel intimidated just by looking at it. As its name suggests, it lived for 10,000 years, so its body length seemed to be around 20 meters. Plus, the energy of a perennial coral reef radiates from its scales!
‘threat!’
It could be said that he was the powerful enemy that X, the 10,000-year-old sea serpent, had longed for. The guy noticed X’s presence and stuck out his tongue repeatedly.
“!”
At that moment, X sensed an ominous energy and moved quickly.
Quad deuk! Along with a harsh sound, poison spewed out from the pores of the 10,000-year-old coral reef where X was standing.
The ten-thousand-year sea serpent was using magic.
“Maybe because it’s a 10,000-year-old snake, it does all kinds of things.”
X narrowly avoided the attack!
If it had even grazed you, you would have suffered fatal injuries. At least his level would be level 400, and X had no resistance to poison. But my intuition, heightened by heavenly cooking, came in handy.
A formidable opponent.
X immediately shouted loudly.
“Bear stance!”
Gooooo! The tremendous vitality emanating from X’s body.
X’s muscles twitched and even the air flow changed. Although it is not as powerful as the bear stance of the Gourmet King that I saw in my fantasy, it is a sight that clearly shows growth.
fillet! X turned his shoulders.
“If you made a cruel move first, you have to deal with the consequences later, right?”
Flash! A release of spirit.
flinch! For a moment, the ten thousand year old sea serpent’s tongue became dull.
It is a named monster of over 400 levels, a 10,000-year sea serpent. What made such a guy freeze with his spirit was not only shame, but also the tremendous spirit that X possessed.
‘A full-throated attack.’
Tatak! X rushed towards the Ten Thousand Years’ Sea Serpent at an incredible speed. I held the traveler’s sword tightly, held my breath, and rushed towards the man’s neck. X had grown even more since the battle with the Fishman Alliance.
Sigh! The attack of all his might was a great success.
And as if celebrating that hit.
Tiroling! Notifications poured in.
[Your level has gone up!]
[Your level has gone up!]
[Your level has gone up!]
[Your level has gone up!]
“…I’m a lot stronger than I thought.”
Even X, who thought he was better at estimating than anyone else, found it impossible to accurately estimate his own strength. Synergy effects from numerous titles, skills, and enormous stats! The level 420 named monster Ten Thousand Years’ Sea Serpent was sent away in one blow. Rise 4 levels in one go!
X, who finally reached level 200, gave a shout-out.
“Cheer up!”
And the joy was short-lived.
‘I still have a lot to take care of, so I’ll enjoy the joy briefly.’
X immediately placed his hand on the 10,000-year sea serpent. By using the Celestial Galmuri, you can obtain the rare grade ingredient sea snake meat and the unique ingredient item 10,000-year sea snake skin.
“crazy.”
X’s eyes widened.
-Million-year sea snake skin (unique)
The skin of a ten-thousand-year sea snake that protected the coral reef for ten thousand years.
It radiates the energy of a 10,000-year-old coral reef.
Special Effect: When crafted into armor, a special effect is granted that reduces the amount of mana consumed by 30% when using attribute magic.
“It’s a fucking scam.”
Reduces mana consumption by 30% when using magic.
Considering that most attack magic is attribute magic, this could be said to be a ridiculous effect. It was a coveted special effect even for X, who only used dancing stems of natural magic.
“…I guess it’s worth the price, but is this?”
So, if a user with a job that uses a wider variety of magic sees this item… he or she would probably spend all their money to purchase the item.
X took the items with a sinister smile.
“We have to sell it very, very expensively!”
To be honest, it was an item that X didn’t really need.
X’s maximum mana was the highest among users, and the only magic that used mana was dancing. Because of this, I wanted to put it on the auction house and watch the price rise leisurely.
‘Of course it will happen later.’
For now, taking care of the perennial coral trees was a priority. X headed to the top of the 10,000-year coral reef. Then, I was able to discover a 10,000-year-old coral tree that was concave and emitting a mysterious light.
“I found a 10,000-year-old coral tree!”
The Gourmet King’s second recipe!
When I saw the last ingredient, the 10,000-year-old coral tree, I was in awe. The 10,000-year-old coral water was contained in a crater the size of a small pond. First,
“what?”
Jjoljjol. X tilted his head as he watched the coral water flowing into the glass bottle.
Don’t the hands that lightly touch the 10,000-year-old coral tree look particularly moist?
“This has completely turned into baby skin?”
A mysterious 1000-year-old coral tree.
It rejuvenated my skin with just a light touch. I took a glass bottle full of X into my inventory. And I looked closely at the 10,000-year-old coral tree.
“…What does it taste like?”
gulp! I have already climbed the coral reef for 10,000 years.
I was feeling thirsty after moving so hard.
My thirst reached its peak when I saw the 10,000-year-old coral trees emitting a mysterious and mysterious light. I have already collected the perpetual coral water to use in the recipe, and there is still plenty of perpetual coral water.
That means it’s okay to drink it!
Without hesitation, X buried his face in the 10,000-year-old coral tree.
“…!”
Sweet.
This is not just water, it’s honey water!
X’s eyes widened and he began to feel changes in his body.
Perennial coral water is a mysterious water that brings outstanding benefits even when consumed by the general public. X, who has heavenly taste, drank that water.
[Heavenly taste has discovered the taste hidden in ‘10,000-year coral water’!]
[10,000 years of life contained in 10,000-year coral water are absorbed into the body!]
[Maximum stamina increases by 5000 points!]
[Maximum mana increases by 5000 points !]
[Strength increases by 100 points!]
[Dexterity increases by 100 points!]
[Intelligence increases by 100 points!]
[‘Composure’ has been created by feeling 10,000 years of age!]
“What is this?”
X’s pupils were shaken by the notification bomb.
X, who came to his senses, read the notification line by line. Maximum health and mana increase by a whopping 5000 points. In addition, Strength, Dexterity and Intelligence each increase by 100 points?
“…omg.”
That alone is amazing, and a new stat rating was also created. I still didn’t know what the composure stat was about. But what needs to be done now has been decided. X immediately started moving around without even looking for an explanation.
“You have to take care of as much as you can.”
Perennial coral water with crazy effects!
It wasn’t an X that would just pass up a coral tree with this effect. Pots, spice bottles, and even frying pans! X took out all kinds of utensils and started scooping up the 10,000-year coral water. X smiled and muttered.
“Just boiling and eating ramen with this…!”
Your stats will soar tens, if not hundreds, of times!
X’s arms showed no signs of stopping.
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
