BJ Grand Mage-Episode 191
191fury.
5.
9th day since the disassembly quest.
“It's finally here. Why did it take so long??”
Instead of answering NPC Arvia's question, Midas took out a frost flower from his inventory..
“I managed to get it.”
NPC Arvia, who checked the frost flower, nodded and received the frost flower..
After that, Midas took it out again..
one, two and three.
“I've saved a lot?”
NPC Arvia looked surprised after seeing a total of four frost flowers..
It's hard to get even one, how can you get four??
On the other hand, Midas' expression was not good..
‘I never thought the first shot would be a dog shot.’
Isn't it true that Midas found two frost flowers on the first day??
Of course, I had no doubt that I would find more than one flower per day..
‘No, no matter what, does it make sense that you won't find anything in the last three days? I just swept away the forest of fog, but somehow not a single one came out.?’
The worst thing was that after finding the fourth one, I couldn't find a single one for three days..
Of the golden time of 10 days, 3 days were meaninglessly lost..
Of course, just because I saved it like this didn’t mean everything was sorted out..
Because you can't do anything with these ingredients alone..
“What should I do now??”
“Anyway, I have to melt the frost flowers. It's not difficult. I'll do it right away.”
With those words, NPC Arvia placed the frost flower in her hand into a wooden container..
Then he started shaking the container a few times like a bartender taking a cocktail order..
Grrrr!
Then, surprisingly, the wooden barrel spewed out flames..
As NPC Arvia said, it is understandable that it melts the frost flowers..
After shaking the container a few more times, NPC Arvia took out a small finger-sized bottle from her pocket and poured the melted frost flowers into it..
“ruler."
He then handed the bottle to Midas..
[Essence of Frostflower]
- Material Grade: Legendary
- Material Effect: Melted the frost flower, leaving only the essence. It has the property of absorbing magical power. Used when disassembling items.
- Binds upon acquisition (not tradable))
- Valid time: 24 hours
Midas' expression crumpled as he checked the information window that appeared at that moment..
‘valid time?’
Of course, the thing that made me cringe was the expiration time..
‘No, it's valid time.?’
The 24-hour validity period simply means that you must decide which item to disassemble and execute it within today..
It was impossible to plan the future, which was one of Midas' plans..
‘This trash game is real!’
The 10 days I managed to get, the 9 days out of which I invested, the reward for my efforts has been reduced by half..
Midas, who was dissatisfied with that fact, was immediately informed of the game God Wars..
“Would you like me to make the rest as well? It would be better to make it in advance. Because the frost flowers melt quickly.”
“yes? what now……."
“Literally. To begin with, frost flowers are flowers that only bloom in the Forest of Fog. The frost flowers have a special energy there. But what happens if you bring it out? I saw frost lingering where the sun rose?”
This game is Midas, it's a lot more fucked up than you think!
“Now, just a moment!”
‘really?’
Midas was surprised at that fact and checked the frost flower he had taken out..
[frost flower]
- Material Grade: Legendary
- Material Effect: A flower found only in special places. Has the property of absorbing magical energy.
- No trading when harvesting
- Valid time: 24 hours
Midas couldn't even vent his anger at the new, unseen content..
‘Is it not acceptable to suck honey??’
Actually, if you think about it, it was a natural measure..
If you can make a lot of Frost Flower Essence here and use it whenever you want, you can freely disassemble the bound items acquired during the main scenario quest to extract their abilities..
Considering the game difficulty that God Wars has presented to players so far, it was strange to tolerate a section that could be easily reached in that way..
“Now, would you like me to make the rest as well? To be honest, I didn't expect to bring this much, but I did, so I have to do it..”
No, in the first place, this disassembly quest wasn't easy even to find a single frost flower..
Most players would spend days just discovering one, and then wouldn't even imagine discovering more..
In particular, as soon as I knew this fact and that the frost flower had an expiration date, it was clear that I would not go out of my way to get it..
Because it is Midas, we were able to secure as many as four flowers..
‘4I'm glad that even dogs can do it..’
From that perspective, we should be thankful that the manufacturing of the four was not blocked..
“First, let's check if it's really possible..”
Of course, it was more urgent to confirm its effectiveness rather than manufacturing the essence of the frost flower right away..
“Well then, give it a try..”
NPC Arvia nodded at those words, and Midas, who saw that, went to work..
I took out the book of an unknown archmage from my inventory and placed the guardian's gloves on top of the book..
“Drop the essence of the frost flower onto the item..”
After that, I followed NPC Arvia's words..
In particular, transparent water droplets hit the guardian's gloves and flowed down, reaching the cover of the book..
Then I heard a notification.
[Would you like to extract the power of the Guardian's Gloves??]
[From the Guardian's Gloves you can extract the ability '+40 percent magic projectile speed'.]
Midas answered that question.
“yes."
In response, the book flashed, and the guardian's gloves on top of it also began to emit light..
Afterwards, the light came to Midas' chest and was absorbed..
[The Guardian's gloves have disintegrated.]
[You have acquired a new ability.]
Midas caught his breath at the subsequent notification..
‘done.’
Result as expected.
‘It's really okay.’
It was a surprising result even though I expected it..
‘It also increases projectile speed.!’
Just being able to extract basic abilities such as intelligence or magic would be a huge task, but rather than being able to extract core options..
It was a system that could overcome the limitations of God Wars players..
Moreover, there were currently three frost flowers left in Midas' hands..
‘Let's go in that order: armor and headband. the other one…….'
It is natural that the disappointment from earlier has now melted away like a flower of frost, and your head is filled with only the thought of which item to disassemble..
“That's good. So now I have to return the favor..”
“yes?”
Midas stopped worrying after hearing NPC Arvia's words..
“Grace?”
In response to the question that followed, NPC Arvia spoke with his eyes flashing sharply..
“Then I thought that helping you until now was the result of my sacrificial spirit without expecting anything in return.?”
“That's right……."
At that moment, her attitude after the first meeting with NPC Arvia appeared in Midas' mind..
‘Considering the temperament you've shown so far, it's strange that they give it to you for free..’
Far from being free, on the contrary, even if you tell them to just do what they want after making a blind eye, they look like they will be left behind..
Above all, Midas had no right to refuse..
Refusing her request is the same as giving up on the main scenario quest..
“I've been blessed too much, and now it's time for me to repay the favor..”
NPC Arvia nodded in response..
“I know why the Spirit's Cave was created?”
And then asked a question.
Midas thought of that question..
‘The official settings revealed so far are…….'
“Isn't it created because the Spirit King of Burning Heat and the Spirit King of Cold Cold were summoned here during the war of the gods??”
It wasn't a setting that was particularly surprising or meaningful..
“Yes, with the appearance of those two spirit kings, the boundaries of the world collapsed, and a passage leading to the spirit world was created. In addition, the moment the battle between the two spirit kings took place, part of the world was covered with vapor..”
Midas reflexively responded to NPC Arvia's explanation..
“That's the Forest of Fog.”
This was the first time I heard of this part officially..
‘Some predictions were correct.’
Of course, based on the previous settings, it was already expected that there would be such a setting..
Therefore, even at this point, Midas was not particularly surprised..
“Okay, so here's the question. Why does the Forest of Fog still persist to this day??”
“yes?”
“The two spirit kings have disappeared. In that case, it is true that the Forest of Fog is disappearing. But the Forest of Fog still exists. Even though countless people have tried to get rid of this forest of fog..”
NPC Arvia, who was speaking, raised her head and looked outside the cave and said.
“The power of the two spirit kings remains somewhere and maintains this forest of fog..”
However, even Midas could not help but be surprised at this part..
‘No way, fog maze dungeon?’
Given the circumstances, there was a high possibility that the dungeon mentioned here was Azumo's requested dungeon..
While Midas was drawing a picture in his head, NPC Arvia pointed to the book of an unknown archmage lying on the floor and spoke..
“And if you use the method in the book, you might be able to separately extract the power of the Spirit Kings..”
With those words, the picture drawn in Midas' mind was completed..
“I won't ask you to do it for free. Because it is not normal to obtain a fragment containing the Spirit King's power. I'll give you something that will help you if you do it.”
While speaking, NPC Arvia took out a small skill card book..
‘Legendary Epic Skill Card Book!’
When Midas saw that, there were no more worries in his mind..
“It's a matter of repaying a favor, but it's something that can't be done at the expense of one's life. I will definitely do anything.”
With his words, Midas quickly grabbed the Legendary Epic Skill Card Book..
“good.”
[A new quest has been created in the main scenario quest section..]
After that, an audible notification was heard, but it did not reach Midas's ears..
‘Yes, if you went through all that hard work, it should be worth it. Rather, what can I use the legendary epic skills for??’
I just have happy thoughts.
Of course, even when the quest window appeared in front of me, I couldn't see the quest details..
[Fragment of the Spirit King]
- Quest level: Main scenario
- Quest level: below level 180
- Quest content: Find the fog maze dungeon and retrieve the fragment of the Spirit King hidden there..
- Quest Reward: Fragment of the Spirit King
!Upon completing the quest, you can proceed with ‘Arbia’s Staff’
‘Okay, go into the dungeon... … uh?’
At the very bottom of the quest, until you see the hidden information that only Midas can see,.
‘No, wait.’
The moment he saw that, Midas focused on the quest window once more..
‘Arvia's Staff?’
And after checking the contents again, Midas' eyes naturally turned to the staff held in his bare hand..
‘weapon?’
The moment when the appearance of a new weapon is predicted.
‘This wand is also bound, so if a replacement is available…….'
At that moment, only one thought occurred to Midas' mind..
‘You must complete the quest before the frost flowers melt..’
that there is no time.
‘Tomorrow, we will attack.’
Upon reaching that fact, Midas let out a long sigh..
6.
Hyunwoo Jeong planned to disassemble the items step by step after collecting the frost flowers..
In other words, I had no intention of disassembling all the items at once..
At first, the intention was to only disassemble the guardian's gloves..
‘It is definitely possible to upgrade the specs by disassembling the Guardian's gloves and wearing flame gloves instead..’
The reason is that a replacement item is needed..
‘I never thought there would be a time limit.’
But those plans were foiled the moment the expiration date came up..
Frost Flower 24 hours, Frost Flower Essence 24 hours.
In a total of 48 hours, Hyunwoo Jeong had to not only disassemble the item but also find a replacement for it..
‘Armor and headband…….'
Naturally, it was necessary to obtain replacement items for the Guardian's Armor and Guardian's Headband after they were dismantled..
There were many alternative items.
This is the item that Hyunwoo Jeong is currently searching for through G-Bay..
[flaming hat]
155Flaming Hat, a level legendary item!
It was an item that was more than adequate to replace the guardian's headband..
“Wow, a flaming hat is up for sale. Hyunwoo! A burning listing has been posted on G-Bay! Looks like this is on sale for the first time in a month!"
Even luckily, a property had recently come up for sale..
There's only one problem!
“Hey, look at the price. The real price is the price of a house..”
that the price is very expensive.
“They even raised it 20% higher than the average price..”
There was even a bubble there..
“Anyway, BJ Grand Mage is the problem. Because of BJ Grand Mage, all legendary items at that level have increased by more than 20%, right? Well, it might be the price of gum for a BJ master..”
Jeong Hyun-woo couldn't help but sigh deeply at the fact that the culprit was himself..
‘I spend half of my savings to buy this one..’
Of course the answer was fixed.
It would be foolish not to purchase this item in this situation..
So I had no choice but to worry.
‘Wow.’
I have never purchased such an expensive item in my life..
There is no way I can easily get my hands on it.
No, honestly, it was something that went beyond the limits that Hyun-Woo Jeong had built up throughout his life..
Moreover, in this case the situation was different..
“Well, I'll put it up at twice the market price while praying that a BJ master will buy it..”
As Lee Hyuk-ju said, the market price of BJ Grand Mage's level-level magician-only items is currently in a bubble of over 20%..
In other words, when you purchase an item and try to resell it, you lose money equal to the bubble price..
Considering the fees for the purchase and sales process, it's like more than a billion dollars is just flying away in the air..
“A flaming hat, should I buy it and double the price? Hyunwoo, what do you think??”
Instead of answering Lee Hyuk-ju's question that came to him amidst such worries, Jeong Hyun-woo kept his mouth shut..
A voice was heard in Jeong Hyeon-woo’s ears..
“If BJ Grand Mage really buys a flaming hat, even if it is doubled... … uh? brother! brother! The flaming hat was sold.!”
It was the moment when Jeong Hyun-woo surpassed his limits..
“Did the BJ master really buy it? Wait, so you’re saying you’re shopping right now… … What should I buy next? Want to buy some armor? Could it be snow armor? Now that I think about it, I forgot about the snow armor and it was put up for sale the other day, right? 30% more expensive than the market price... … uh? It's gone? what?”
And not just once, but twice.
‘my money…….'
At that fact, Jeong Hyun-woo, looking more helpless than ever before, sagging on the sofa, heard Lee Hyuk-joo's voice approaching toward the lounge in his ears..
“Jackpot case! Some idiot bought a flaming hat and snow armor at the lowest price.!”
