Episode 688 Mystery (2)
Without anyone knowing who would speak first, their expressions turned into confusion.
However, before making a decision, I decided to listen to Baekho Lee’s story first.
“?”
“Okay, just tell . Maybe there’s so information that might help understand the situation.”
“There’s nothing like that… After waking up in the Poisonous Lava Field, I was looking around to see if anyone had fallen in this area… After looking around briefly, I didn’t see any, so I ca over to the Land of the Ancients.”
There were no clues that would be of much help after that.
It was only a few days before entering the Land of the Ancients that he found the cloth tied up and ran to the place where the monunt was, but other than that, nothing much happened…
“But what is this? When I arrived, there were traces of having stayed there, but no one was there.”
Even Baekho Lee’s explanation was that we had just entered because we saw a strange entrance that had not been there before and our traces were leading to it.
“Voila! Then my story ends here!”
Baekho Lee, who was making a gesture of stretching his body, suddenly changed his expression and looked at us and asked in a low voice:
“So why can’t we see our archer?”
“······”
“Did you get kicked out?”
I was speechless at the seemingly random question.
Well, it wasn’t my fault.
“Bryot is dead.”
“how?”
“I found a corpse on my way to the ancient forest alone. It seed to have been attacked by a monster.”
“···okay?”
After saying that, Baekho Lee remained silent for a mont.
Of course, that ti wasn’t very long.
“Hmm, but at least it was prevented if only one person died.”
Baekho Lee, who regained his usual tension as if nothing had happened.
“I bet everyone had a hard ti. Honestly, I thought everyone except the Baron and my grandfather might have died.”
“······”
“But what if there’s no archer? Even though he’s a bit timid, he’s pretty good at it.”
I couldn’t figure out what the guy was thinking.
Is this kid really that indifferent?
We’ve been colleagues for at least 3 years?
I don’t know, but that’s where the story about Bryant ends.
“Anyway, this isn’t the important part… So what happened? None of us hung the cloth?”
“That’s right, Baekho, if you’re not joking around.”
“Why would I play such a prank? Ha… This is really sothing that would make a ghost cry.”
Well, well
Is this sothing that even a ghost would cry about?
“Is there a traitor among us?”
Baekho Lee started to roll his eyes.
***
“I’m not! I’m absolutely innocent! There’s no way I could have co up with such a complicated plan!”
Aures, who imdiately started defending himself after receiving Baekho Lee’s gaze,
This isn’t so mafia ga or anything.
There was no reason to waste energy on useless things, so I quickly intervened in the situation.
“How about you stop suspecting your colleagues?”
“Why? This isn’t reasonable suspicion—·”
Reasonable doubt is a piece of shit
“If none of us hung the cloth, wouldn’t it be better to suspect the other?”
“The other side···?”
“Have you already forgotten? We are not the only ones in this area.”
Baekho Lee, who was wondering what I was saying, opens his mouth slightly as if he realized sothing.
“What was the na of us!
“stop·”
Before the na, which is like a symbol of misfortune, can be completed, I quickly stop it. This ti, Jaina opens her mouth from the side.
“But he’s already dead?”
“That’s right! Didn’t Lord Ruingenes dismantle the thing that turned into Bayon?”
Aures, who is right and is beating the drum
Without having to step forward, the old man opened his mouth.
“I also agree with the Baron. Isn’t it possible that he was the one who lured us in on a planned basis? Han—”
“If possible, call by my last na.”
“···?”
“The two of you weren’t particularly close, right? You have to be polite.”
The old man gave a look like he was saying, “What the hell are you talking about?” but he didn’t seem to want to start a fight.
“···Anyway, my opinion is that what we t was most likely an unidentified person disguised as a man nad Daylan.”
“Then what is the purpose of this unidentified person?”
“I don’t know. But if we investigate this place, we’ll probably find out naturally. Why did he call us here?”
As the old man said, you will find out little by little.
We are already trapped here and all we can do is continue to explore this mysterious space.
“Okay, so we’re almost done with the cleanup. We’ll search this space while being careful of that mysterious bastard. Right, Baron?”
“To sum it up, yes…”
“If you’re ready, let’s go quickly. You might run into that son of a bitch on the way.
Lee Baek-ho, who said that, ca to as if telling to go quickly.
One of them tilts his head as he doesn’t move or budge.
“Why don’t you co down… Oh, right. You were coming up here when we t earlier?”
Only then did Baekho Lee realize sothing strange and ask why.
This is one of the reasons why you shouldn’t have too many boatn.
The rest just followed along when I insisted, but I don’t think this guy will do that.
“I thought I should check it out because I might find sothing if I go up.”
Let’s add a little explanation. Baekho Lee seems to think for a mont and then slaps his knee.
“You never know what you’ll find if you go up… Ah! Now that I think about it, this place looks like the ‘Golden Relics’!”
Is it because I played the original mode for a long ti?
This kid knows a lot about cheat maps, surprisingly.
“Oh, so that’s what you were aiming for? Well then, I guess it’s worth checking!”
“I… what are you two talking about…?”
“There you go, just follow .”
Anyway, the opinions were agreed upon and from then on, Baekho Lee joined in and continued to climb the stairs.
10 minutes 20 minutes 30 minutes···
How much more ti has passed like that?
I don’t know for sure, but I started to wonder if this place was different from the labyrinth and that ‘events’ didn’t occur.
Turbuck
Finally, the stairs end and a narrow passage appears.
“···uh?”
“There really was an end···? I thought it was so kind of illusion magic or sothing·”
“What is about to co out······”
There was an atmosphere that seed to want an explanation, but when I started walking down the hallway without saying a word, everyone quietly followed .
Thump thump
After passing about 10m, the dark vision disappears and a stone gate appears at the end.
I thought I should at least give a briefing before entering, but I decided to just skip it.
‘They’re easy to catch even 3rd grade monsters, so why bother?’
The Golden Relic, one of the four-tiered cracks
He’s not even the guardian of the crack, but rather a hidden mid-boss, so the battle itself shouldn’t be difficult.
“Then let’s start”
After giving that much advice, he imdiately took out a hamr and struck the stone gate.
and····
Kwaaaaaaaang-!
A stone gate that shatters into pieces in just one blow.
‘···what?’
Even after I broke it, I was still dumbfounded.
Well, it had pretty high durability in the ga.
Even though it was raised as a diltank barbarian, I thought it would take at least five hits to break it.
Swaaaaaaahh …
GM cleared the dust with wind magic, securing my field of vision, and I cautiously stepped inside and looked around.
First of all, the terrain is a square structure of a closed room.
It’s much better than the narrow passage, but it’s not that wide. Also, the walls are covered with creepy-looking murals.
Turbuck
A 3m long golden coffin is placed in the center.
It was a piece that could be found if you kept going up the stairs in reverse.
Turbuck
When you open that coffin, a 4th-grade monster with the na ‘Macairo’ appears as a mid-boss.
Upon exiting the rift, you will receive a combat buff that will last until you exit, and if you are lucky, you may receive one very unique number item…
Thump·
He pushed the lid of the coffin with his foot to knock it down, then quickly stepped back to create so distance.
Kwaaaaang-!
Let’s raise our shields and prepare for battle. Everyone is taking their stances.
but····
“······”
“······”
“···Wasn’t sothing coming out?”
A boss monster that shows no sign of getting up even after the dust has settled.
‘What is this again·’
I slowly approached him, covering my upper body with a shield, and checked inside the coffin. As I stood there blankly, Baekho Lee approached and sang:
“What? He’s already dead?”
Inside the coffin, there was only one corpse, its bones turned to pure white.
***
Bones placed in a lying position in a coffin.
As I was staring blankly at this, Baekho Lee called out to the destroyer.
“Grandpa, try rooting first. Even if the most precious eyeball rots away, the Makairo bone is still top-notch, right?”
“No need. These bones are already worthless.”
“What are you talking about?”
“The reason why the bones of monsters are valuable is because they contain magical power. But···”
The old man continued speaking, picking up a bone.
“I can’t detect any magic here. This thing is worse than a goblin bone. It’s already worn down and worn away, making it useless as a staff.”
“···This is the first ti I’ve felt nothing from the bones of a living thing. It usually takes years for the magical power concentration to beco 0. ”
“In that sense, it might be worth taking a few. As this guy said, it’s a very special case.”
The old man who said that picked up a few large pieces of bone and put them in his bag, and the GM who saw this also took a few pieces.
“Wow, so all you’ve gotten from coming all the way here are a few bone fragnts that aren’t even as good as goblin bones?”
“Unfortunately, that’s true.”
“Why did it happen like that?”
“Well, if we were to make a guess, there are probably two things.”
Within seconds, the old man held up two fingers.
“One is the sign of this monster. Sotis, this phenonon appears in corpses that have had their life and magic absorbed by black magic or Karui’s power.”
“So the bastard who lured us here could be a warlock or a Karui Ttakari? Okay, check. Then what’s the second one?”
“It’s a case where a very long ti has passed since the corpse was created. Originally, all byproducts of living things decay or corrode over ti, and their magic power dissipates.”
“Then what about the equipnt made from bones? The one that was put up for auction before was said to have been used by a famous explorer thousands of years ago and was sold for a very high price.”
“That’s because it was processed with magic to prevent the magical power from dissipating.”
“So how long does it take for bones to beco this garbage?”
“There happens to be a specin being tested on that topic on the rooftop.”
“Ah, you an the goblin bones of J-tal? I heard that it’s been exactly 4,000 years since they started experinting last year.”
“Was that so? But the magic power still remains.”
The bone story suddenly beca long, but the point is the sa.
“So, are you saying that this guy could have been dead for over 4,000 years?”
“Unless you were hit by black magic or sothing like that.”
Of course, neither one was worth worrying about right away.
How would you know how or how long ago he died?
‘···Isn’t it too bad that I didn’t get the buff?’
Besides, I had been secretly looking forward to it.
If you catch this guy, you have a very low chance of getting one item—·
“Huh? Baron, what is this? It looks like a ‘box’···”
“What? A ‘box’?”
As I quickly turned my head in the direction where the sound ca from, I saw Aures holding a black cubic box.
“···Where did you find this?”
“I wasn’t looking for it… It was just in the corner over there?”
“Give it to ”
I received the box as if I was snatching it away, carefully inspected it from all sides, and finished my appraisal.
It was definitely genuine.
“What the heck is that···?”
“No. 777 Makairo’s Locker”
It was an item that was usually called a mystery box.
