The 31st Piece Turns the Tables Chapter 38

Episode 38

His spirit pouch was engulfed in green, red, and orange light.

Whoa!

The light gradually faded, creating a belt that glowed in three colors, unlike its previous, clumsy form.

[Multiple Spirit Box Belt (incomplete) changes into Three Spirits.]

‘Three Spirits….’

The spirit bag has begun to show its true effectiveness.

[Three Spirits]

Grade: Rare

Appropriate level: 10 – 20

Defense: 30

Durability: 140/140

A belt imbued with the energy of the three spirits. Designed by Griz and completed by Snowman.

Basic ability: Strength + 10 Dexterity + 10 Stamina + 10

Special ability: Spirit’s protection (unique) effect. It changes every time it absorbs a spirit.

‘Oh my god’ sponsored Madness by 300!

[Oh my god, what is this?]

– An item that looked like something came out.

– It actually exists;

– If you wear that to a club, you’ll be very popular;

– You haven’t been to the club, have you?

– Sorry, I was just imagining it.

Three belts.

This belt, which looks like the name of a Chinese restaurant, has a unique effect.

‘There is a unique effect that is almost non-existent in the beginning?’

There were often cases of ability points or effects related to speed and vitality, but it was rare for the equipment to have abilities that directly helped in battle.

These types of equipment only appear in earnest after the mid-game, and each has its own special abilities.

Each of those unique abilities had unique effects.

‘Spirit’s protection um… Is this the principle?’

To roughly explain the effect of the spirit’s protection as Kangseol understood it, it played the same role as an elemental shield.

Ability to prevent sudden magic attacks.

‘It is said that the type of element that can be blocked and the amount of impact increase as the type of spirit filled in the spirit box…’

By collecting seven types of spirits, seven types of elemental attacks could be blocked for a short period of time.

In theory, it is possible to block 7 spells pouring in within 1 second.

Of course, the magic that can be blocked is limited to low-level magic, but even that level would be a performance that would be criticized by early opponent casters.

“uh? The belt has changed. “Is there a spirit box there?”

“you’re right. “It’s an unusual piece of equipment.”

“It’s fascinating. Can I touch it?”

“It’s not possible.”

“Ah… yes.”

– Nope

– behave yourself well!

– Iron-wall!

– It’s a million years too early to dare to try to surpass me!

– Hahaha shy;;

– To prevent gossip,

Han Seo-ryeong dozed off as if her eyelids were heavy as the sparkling spirits settled down to sleep.

“I will be on guard. “You can sleep first.”

“really? “For some reason, I’m really tired… Did I move around too much today?”

“So it will be.”

“Then thank you… If you wake me up, I will stand there from then on.”

“yes.”

Han Seo-ryeong yawned and rolled over on a large leaf.

Kang Seol took something out of her arms.

Sigh…

– No!

– Request fire! Non-request warning!

– This is 19 years old!

The object that Kang Seol took out of her arms was a book. This is Griz’s multi-spirit ship blueprint and analysis.

– ??? : Hehehe… I will secretly read to you while you are sleeping.

– ??? : Reading is food for the mind… hehehe… how do you think?

– Sulking…

Kang Seol continued to read the contents of the unusually long belt design.

‘Next to the 3 spirits…’

-This belt’s abilities are fully displayed when 3 types of spirits are collected.

Of course, it would be best to collect all types of spirits, but I was too busy with other things to do that, so I didn’t collect any. Because I’m not interested in theories that have already been completed.

However, when future generations evaluate me, I wonder if they will think it is because I cannot catch spirits. Hehe… I’ll write down the method of capturing the spirit here. With this, no one will doubt my genius.

Below this information, detailed information was given on how to capture low-level spirits.

Since mid-level spirits did not even enter the spirit box, this belt was designed from the beginning with only low-level spirits in mind.

Snow reading the contents.

Up to this point, I had read it over and over again and memorized it all.

And from the content below, I have only familiarized myself with the snowfall.

– Extra) About the Spirit of Flash and the Spirit of Shadow.

“Hmm…”

Kang Seol, who had been watching Han Seo-ryeong tossing and turning to sleep for a while, looked at the contents of the book again.

– This part is written based on knowledge and word of mouth, not experience, so don’t trust it too blindly.

What on earth are you going to do?

– This is Griz mixing his own genius with the information he obtained from ancient fairy books. How do you know the ancient fairy language? I speak 12 different languages! What I’m most curious about is communication without dialogue with machines…

but surprisingly, that statement is probably not a bluff. When I saw accidents happening here and there while wandering around the continent.

– Venta, the spirit of flash, and Shay, the spirit of shadow, are extremely small in number compared to other spirits. In particular, in the case of Shays, very few people have witnessed it.

But that can be seen as a blessing in disguise. Most of the spirits are stupidly docile (that’s why I hate them), but you have to be careful with these two. These two spirits prey on human life.

This is also the reason why Kang Seol was always careful and captured spirits.

– I will write down how to deal with it and how to capture it.

First of all, discovering the two is a difficult task. There will be a total of 9 spirit boxes on the belt. Among them, there are two that look different from other spirit ships, right? That’s the special spirit box that catches them. (These guys won’t come in easily, so it’s a spirit box that forces you to inhale them in a state of exhaustion.) Take a look at the

dark spirit box among them. There is white powder, right? It is a regular solvent. It’s like extreme poison to spirits. How do you feed them? From now on, I will tell you how. First of all… wait a minute, why am I even writing this down?

Meanwhile, this was a few days ago.

Three people who encountered the snowfall sent here were walking through the forest of the Great Forest.

“Lee Woo-cheol, did you go all the way there just to poop nearby?”

“Oh, sorry… I’m embarrassed.”

“It’s a forest, so what happened?”

“Hahaha….”

“Anyway, where do they all live? “If we just find them, we’ll catch them all.”

Their only achievement was to fill one spirit box even though they entered quite deep into the forest.

Even though they have already spent more than ten days, they are lagging behind the snowfall.

They were also upset, perhaps sensing their own lack of performance.

Woocheol Lee said hesitantly.

“Hey…”

“Why?”

“I think I went in there earlier and saw some traces…”

“What? Really!?”

“I’m not sure.”

The news that Lee Woo-cheol brought was enough to excite the group.

What was more important to them now than the authenticity of the work was the sense of relief that they could move with a goal rather than walking aimlessly like this.

“What are you doing! Let’s go quickly! “What if I run away like this?”

“As for sleep….”

“Once you check, you can sleep during the day.”

“Then let’s go together. “I saw it over there earlier.”

“Guide me! Let’s just finish this and leave. “I’m so annoyed that I can’t eat anymore.”

Sasak…

Lee Woo-cheol guided them.

At night, insects clung to them and thorns scratched their bodies, but since the opportunity to achieve results was right in front of them, there was no way they could see anything.

And fortunately, what Woocheol Lee said was true.

“It’s real! It’s a real trace. But…”

“The trace continues…”

“Shall we go?”

“of course.”

“What if it’s a human?”

“Then you can step away.”

They walked for a while, following the traces of something moving.

By the time a sweet smell came out of their mouths, they had arrived somewhere.

Whoa…

a wide open hill.

A lot of spirits were gathered on a hill full of flowers and fireflies.

Their bright white appearance looked just like sad stars falling to the ground.

“Oh my god…”

“Amazing… Awesome…”

Soon, one of the spirits found the group and approached them cautiously.

Chiiing…

“Uh huh? “Are you coming this way?”

“Just stay still and you’ll be okay.”

“How do you know? “That…”

The white spirit suddenly approached me and grabbed my hand.

Lee Woo-cheol was the first to contact the spirit and spoke.

“I don’t think it’s dangerous. “Do you think they welcome us?”

“uh? Uh… it looks that way….”

“You too, come and see.” “I wonder if you have something to give us.”

“uh?”

Another spirit approached and pulled the arm of another member of the group.

The group was intoxicated by the dreamlike atmosphere and blended into the group of spirits.

Sassasa…

The cool wind shook the flowers and grass.

I thought this is what it means to be intoxicated with the atmosphere.

As if they were hallucinating, they danced in harmony with the spirits.

Bingle.

Bingle again.

And then I slowly laid down on the hill where the flowers were blooming. Very naturally.

However, unlike his companions who were in a daze, Lee Woo-cheol stood upright.

‘what? ‘Why am I lying down?’

The group looked at Lee Woo-cheol for a moment, and when their eyes met, they felt a strangeness in Lee Woo-cheol’s eyes that they had never seen before.

Maybe that’s why these words came out of my mouth.

“Who are you?”

“Woo-cheol… isn’t it Woo-cheol?”

Suddenly, Lee Woo-cheol’s mouth was torn open. He turned into a black shadow and smiled at them.

Crack…

Kwak-ga-ga-gak!

“Kwaaaaaak!”

* * *

Crumbling!

Lightning struck the tree.

Ta-ja-ja-ja…

“Aaaaaaaaaa!”

“Screaming is dangerous. The spirits might be surprised.”

“Over there. “Did you not see that I was surprised just now?”

“Han Seo-ryeong, you wouldn’t kill someone just because you were surprised, right?”

Gulp…

Han Seo-ryeong kept her mouth shut at Kang Seol’s words. Because I understood the meaning of what he said.

“Is it possible for me to die? here?”

“If it scares the spirit, then yes.”

“You talk about that as naturally as if you were ordering black bean noodles at a Chinese restaurant!”

“Shhh, you need to lower your voice.”

“Really….”

Qarring-!

Lightning once again set nearby trees on fire.

“Joe, I’ll be quiet. sorry.”

“…coming.”

“yes? “What’s coming?”

“A spirit.”

Jijijijik… Jijijik…

A being emitting yellow light sent an electric current through the ground and walked towards where Kangseol and the others were.

“Ugh… it feels tingly here too. “Isn’t it dangerous?”

“It’s dangerous.”

“…Damn.”

“If you stay still, at least you won’t die.”

Shupatz, the spirit of static electricity, finally appears. Schpartz poured electricity into the ground with an innocent look on his face.

“Why are you doing that?”

“Perhaps… for conversation?”

“conversation?”

Squeak…

“Hmm!”

An electric current penetrated Kang Seol and Han Seo-ryeong.

“Who are you?”

The current asked Schpartz’s thoughts to them. At the same time, a choice occurred to Kang Seol.

[The spirit of static electricity spoke to me. I guess I’m interested in people. How would you answer?]

1. How dare you talk about spirits… do you want to die?

2. Don’t do this, you’re wrong.

3. Are you making a mess of this place? then no.

4. Do you want to go together?

5. Is there anything I can help you with?

…

Snowfall answered as indicated in the method of capturing Schpartz that Griz had written down.

“Is there anything I can help you with?”

Schpartz somehow understood what Kangseol said and fired an electric current at him again.

Tingling…

「Help me? “Me?”

“Yes.”

Shiver…

「Can you help me? “It’s very, very difficult.”

“Any amount.”

Shiver…

「Then follow me. If you grant my request, I will grant yours as well.”

Whisper…

Shupatz turned off the current and walked back.

Kang Seol nodded to Han Seo-ryeong to let her know that the matter was accomplished.

“What is it… What does that kid want you to help him with?”

“You’ll know when you go.”

Snowfall recalled the characteristics of the shoes described by Griz.

– Shupatz is one of the few spirits that can communicate. It’s like a child with a lot of worries. Hmm… I always worry about the smallest things. It is not a difficult concern like world peace and inner governance like I do. Anyway, if you solve that minor problem, Shoeparts will follow the target unconditionally, right?

In short, you should get shoes by solving small problems.

Squeaky…

Schpartz walked very fast.

Kang Seol and Han Seo-ryeong almost ran to follow suit as much as possible.

“Huh… Huh… Is it still there?”

“I think we’re all there.”

“…cave?”

The entrance to the black cave welcomed them.

Schpartz turned around in front of the cave.

Chijijik…

“Here’s my problem. “Are you really going to help me?”

Snowfall walked into the cave without hesitation.
