Episode 160. Blessing (2)
[Garden of Fallen Trees]
[Recommended Level: Lv.400~Lv.450]
[Destruction Degree: 13.2%]
Time is like afternoon tea…
no, it’s like gold.
To put it bluntly, it’s a waste of time.
494 levels.
Even if you hunt all day in a rift with an appropriate level like this, you won’t be able to dream of leveling up. Of course, there is a reason for entering the crack even knowing that fact.
[The first world tree blesses you.]
[Your vitality and magic regeneration greatly increase.]…
After a day, there is no change even after rubbing your eyes.
The Blessing buff of the World Tree that kept me from being intimidated in front of millions of demons on the Arcana Continent is still there…!
“It’s a blessing, so it’s excessive consideration.”
If the buff disappears because of the cubic crystal, it’s really your fault, Grandfel.
It wasn’t excessive consideration, it was an effect that even bowing would not be enough.
‘The effect is ridiculous.’
The [Blessing of the First World Tree] buff boasted a superior effect to most items as well as non-medicinal herbs. Moreover, it was on a different level from the [natural enemy relationship].
I looked around the rift.
Giant caterpillars wriggling in a rotten giant tree.
Aesthetically, it looks really bad, but it’s not a demon-type monster.
Of course, there was no way the [natural enemy relationship] would be activated.
However, it was not the blessing of the World Tree.
There are no trigger conditions!
Because the effect was the same in front of the devil and the caterpillar.
I raised my horsepower.
It’s a realistic feeling that makes me wonder if it’s true or not.
If Arcana was just a game, maybe it’s a bug.
It’s not enough to doubt it.
If it is a buff that is activated in a specific quest, you can understand it.
however.
‘Apart from the duration.’
It’s not enough that I died once.
A world completely different from the Arcana continent.
It means returning to reality.
Literally always.
It means that the effect cannot remain until now unless it is a permanent buff. I summoned Hiel with the raised magic power.
Soon, Hiel appeared from the air.
“Your call has been answered.”
HiL.
But what…?
It is a high-el that is familiar to the eyes to be surprised by the uniformly elegant appearance. Even so, that ‘light’ is very unfamiliar. What is the halo that gently flows from the background?
‘I bet you’ve reached the peak too. Highel?’
Did the thief say my feet were numb?
What is the reason why my sword blade overlaps with that light?
A silver light that climbs through pitch black.
Yes, that light that seems to embody the dark history.
‘…okay, good is good.’
If you’ve somehow grown up, you’re happy with that, Hiel.
Grow up from the inside out, unlike me, who is more than capable, but is seriously fine…! Of course, I can’t express my thoughts like that.
I got the point out of the way.
“Hayel, are they all right?”
Here they were dwarves.
Recovery of the remains of the Kürnberg Machine Tower, the decisive battle weapon.
I was about to ask them.
[Demon Lord Battle].
Even if it is a time when the demons refrain from their activities and conserve their strength ahead of a major incident. I personally witnessed the Arcana Continent.
Even that was not enough, so whenever the [Mystic Eyes Telescope] became available, he checked the situation on the continent.
‘The town over there is dangerous, but it’s too dangerous.’
So it means that it is human nature to first ask for regards.
Highel responded politely.
“of course. It was because of Ho-yeol’s care day and night. They said they didn’t do any harm. They also asked me to say thank you.”
…no but stop for a moment. High L.
Who do you think I took care of?!
There is no such thing as over-interpretation, right?
‘I’m a bit afraid.’
What kind of image am I projected among the dwarves?
I am seriously worried.
However, there was no shame in the lofty pride.
I spoke shamelessly.
“Looks like you’re all right.”
The only thing that wasn’t safe is your conscience, Grandfel.
“We also found the remains of the Kürnberg Machine Tower you mentioned. However, demons are roaming around, so it will take some time to retrieve them.”
It’s also nice to fly in the sky.
I thought I’d already found the remains of the Kirnbeck machine tower.
Let’s imagine I find it. It’s really terrifying just to think about it.
‘The first thing is that there is no way to go to Arcana Continent.’
Even if you don’t even know the location of the machine tower, aside from that.
A demonic eye floats in the skies of Arcana.
Whether it’s a short-range teleport or a portal.
Those eyes that can pinpoint my location in an instant.
A bastard who finds the Kürnberg Machine Tower and makes savings.
Before that, they will only be caught by demons and cast out into the reality of death.
In that sense, too, long live technology.
Highell delivered the news one after another.
“Lastly, it is a story about the smelting of precious iron.”
Ear iron.
ego equipment.
I can’t help but be curious about the news about him as much as the mechanical tower.
“Wallsway is one of the best blacksmiths among dwarves. He started quenching in earnest. I have declared that I will smelt equipment that will never harm Hoyeol.”
I am very grateful for that….
On the other hand, I am afraid.
I did nail it because performance was the top priority. Even if the level limit was too high, it seemed sad in its own way. But as expected, this guy’s cubic tablet.
“You have a great attitude. Can you tell him what you expect?”
“I will follow your word.”
“You worked hard, Hiel.”
For the pride of our high-ranking Grand Fell, the level limit is just a number.
I am also desperate at this point. No matter what the result is, it would be unreasonable to wear it right away.
‘I’d rather study more tricks to use.’
He is also a hole to live in.
The rationalization is over at that point.
More than stopped by the rift.
Even if hunting all day was impossible, there was something to check.
That’s right, I’m talking about the [Blessing of the First World Tree] buff effect.
[Rotten sap monster: Lv.420]
[Giant rotten sap monster: Lv.450]
.
It was not an enemy that could be easily defeated without pouring magic. Above all, as the name suggests, they had the [Poison] attribute.
A deadly poison that can rot even giant trees.
A viscous poison reminiscent of a swamp.
Above all, it is very embarrassing.
“What a unpleasant place.”
I feel that way, but I don’t need to add the sentiment of Grandfel, who can’t live with his formality.
It is not strange to say that there is no justification for the insects to move even as they spray poison on clothes and shoes in the yard where they are not devils.
however.
Again—
I proudly stepped into the swamp of poison.
[Warmth] Do you believe in the effect of the buff?
no.
Although the warmth buff had a universal effect, it did not increase immunity to poison. So, is it levitation? Not even that.
As if I could hear the sound of the shoes, I had definitely stepped on the swamp of poison.
It was.
This must also be the effect of the [Blessing of the First World Tree] buff.
I checked the emerging message.
[The blessing of the first world tree rejects the poison.]
[Poison].
A type of debuff like fainting or bleeding.
You can become ‘immune’ to poison by increasing affinity or resistance, or you can ‘heal’ through skills. But what about ‘refusal’? Even if something is different, it’s a lot different.
“But it doesn’t matter to me.”
refuse.
The feeling of literally pushing poison and debuffs out of the body.
I put aside Lee Ho-yeol’s pathetic expressiveness for a while.
To borrow Grandfel’s expressive power…
“Do you understand? This is the difference in class.”
…Sounds like a difference in class!
Damn, I want to deny it with all my heart beyond cringing.
Again, this was not incorrect.
Like water and oil that do not mix no matter how much you stir them.
The [Blessing of the First World Tree] was completely rejecting the poison.
At that moment, a huge shadow crept in.
It was a wriggling [giant rotten sap monster].
Was it an ambush to compensate for the slow speed?
Rapid exploratory interference expression.
I cast my magic at the guy falling from the giant tree.
There was no need for grandiose magic for a monster that was only level 450.
Even if you can’t leave out the grandiose words.
“A caterpillar that hasn’t woken up the fountain yet.”
Anyway, let’s forget the weirdness for a moment.
Because there was a great harvest today.
‘refuse. Maybe this is…’
Couldn’t it be possible to ignore all debuffs, not just poison?
Of course, I didn’t expect it seriously.
Anyway, I have a conscience too.
‘In fact, it wouldn’t even make sense to just buff it now.’
Even just the life force and magic regeneration buff, the effect of one blessing from the world tree was superior to the unique items wrapped around it. But I was taken aback.
Similarly, to check the effect.
The moment you hold the sword and unleash the sword force.
“!”
An alien sensation ran through his hand.
Even the class quests weren’t enough, so I was allocating even the level up points to [Muscle] and [Agility]. It is true that there were so many points invested in [Magic].
‘In a word, it’s still bottomless poison.’
Like water leaking out of a bottomless dock.
My body was not optimized for radiating sword energy. I wonder
if it’s enough to imitate the posture…
It’s impossible to handle the sword gracefully like Harkon or Schreig.
The stage above the sword.
Now that we have reached the sword river, the amount of water that escapes is bound to increase.
In a word, it meant that the amount of fatigue accumulated in the body when releasing the sword steel was considerable. It’s like bringing in tomorrow’s stamina.
however.
‘light.’
It definitely feels different.
There was no feeling of fatigue in the hand holding the sword or in the legs.
It was not an illusion.
A message popped up in front of my eyes.
[The blessing of the first World Tree refuses to age.]
Yes, I knew I would…
‘Wait a minute, what?!’
You rejected aging Ohhh?!
At this point, it’s a bit scary.
…What kind of blessing did I receive from the World Tree?
*
Players’ time passed quickly.
Kingdom of Yusra.
frost.
Goddess Church sacred ground Muon.
Finally, to the Magic Tower.
Fair to everyone, regardless of region.
[Quest: Unfinished Crusade]
From the Arcana continent to reality.
The crusade against the devil is not yet over.
At the end of this war, there are no rewards or loot.
All that remains is pride.
Prove yourself proud.
─Prove your worth in the area. (In progress)
Prove your ability to fight in the Holy War.
Naturally, the criteria for evaluation were strict.
Likewise, leaving the area, the song did not stop.
“Are you saying even 300 crazy levels aren’t enough?”
“It’s not the level that matters, it’s the pride that matters.”
“Pride? What is his pride?!”
What is it? Pride is pride.
“Because not knowing pride means not having pride.”
Just Homen.
Park Hwigang murmured softly and checked the quest window.
Newly updated two letters [Success] next to the quest goal.
“It was nice to be a real explorer…!”
There was pride in the temple, but there was no nobleman.
It was said that depending on the class, whether or not communication was disabled was not covered.
The past days that come to mind the moment a success message comes to mind.
“It’s all thanks to you.”
relatively low level.
However, there was a high contribution to the Explorers’ League.
The experience of exploring all kinds of cracks without giving in to the appropriate level was able to prove its value by receiving additional points.
Of course, it was just thanks to following in Ho-yeol’s footsteps.
“Homen.”
My faith has not wavered even today.
Park Hwigang’s eyes shone sharply.
Now that he had finally participated in the holy war, it was time to demonstrate his abilities in earnest.
Of course, I don’t know how helpful one explorer’s ability would be, but it meant that I would do my best.
Of course, it wasn’t just Park Hwi-gang’s idea.
League of Explorers.
Many explorers gathered in the main body of Yusra Kingdom.
Federation president Fabian Delon and Aaron Rombus.
Even the highest-ranking explorers with a reputation.
All were explorers who participated in the temple.
“Kuhm.”
As Fabian cleared his throat, his eyes focused.
“It’s the first time I’ve seen so many explorers in such a small place. From now on, how about being friendly and kindly asking each other how they are?”
At Fabian’s joke, the explorers glanced at each other.
I have something to joke about.
In particular, sparks flew between Aaron and Rombus.
“Getting along with a competitor. Funny.”
“Don’t laugh, Aaron. Because your already ugly face gets more distorted.”
“You are so shameless, Rombus. It’s not enough to steal the contribution to the alliance, so are you trying to discredit my appearance? It would be better to look in the mirror when you have time to look into magic tools.”
Park Hwigang, who had been listening silently, thought.
…why are they both equally bandit-like?
But the important thing was not to argue.
There was a reason why the explorers gathered.
Fabian continued.
“The war has not ceased on the Arcana Continent. But our explorers didn’t have to move. What can explorers like us do in a fight between man and man?”
Nodding—
everyone who listened nodded.
Because the explorer’s ability was specialized in exploring labyrinths and dungeons.
Fabian laughed awkwardly and continued.
“Of course, there won’t be much we can do on the battlefield against demons. Is it at least about using magic tools to assist allies? But, as everyone knows, isn’t our battlefield a bit different?”
It was.
different from war.
At least in this temple, explorers were able to play an active role.
Now, a strange space called [Crack] exists.
Fabian raised his fist.
“Arcana and this place. The rift where the two worlds are mixed is truly an unknown space. You never know what dangers may lurk there. But isn’t this the exploration we’ve been longing for? Besides, aren’t irreplaceable spoils waiting at the end of this expedition?”
like grabbing something.
“Even if it means losing your life.”
I clenched my fists.
“The continent of Arcana and the world of adventurers here. Being able to spread your reputation as an explorer in both worlds. Isn’t that the pride of us explorers?”
It is an exploration into the unknown.
Because it was the reason for the existence of explorers.
Fabian added.
“It means that the time has come for us explorers to begin their fight.”
.
.
.
In that sense, today’s regular update was important.
The main body of the Explorers’ League, where no one left.
It was to exchange information with each other regarding update history.
Wait a minute for the endless refresh.
“wait a minute!”
Park Hwigang shouted faster than anyone else.
And check the update history.
Park Hwigang’s face began to turn white.
“…ho, does anyone know anything about elves?!”
