Chapter 247 – 247. The Looting Begins
As soon as the evil spirit’s skill combination event ended, I started the car again and started it.
The car quickly arrived at Mulgeum, and by that time Agaf had opened his mouth.
[I’ve thought about many things.]
“Yes.”
[It doesn’t seem that bad.]
“Right?”
[The survival rate has definitely increased. Honestly, since I teamed up with a guy I thought would be the final boss… It’s true that the pressure has been significantly reduced.]
Agaf is right. He felt very relieved just by being free from the condition of being terminally ill, not knowing when he would be killed.
I feel like the despair has disappeared a bit.
[Hehe… Well, if you want to continue to receive God’s protection, you have to do what you’re told.]
“That’s right.”
It’s good to be free from the threat of evil spirits, but if you want to continue to be protected, you have to do what you’re told to do properly.
For example, catching a god and offering it to him or making an offering.
“What about pagan symbols?”
[I guess I’ll have to keep destroying that too. Ultimately, in order to prevent disaster in the parallel universe, we must destroy the symbols of paganism.]
Aside from the evil spirits, what is currently invading my world are the disasters thrown out by the savior of the parallel universe.
If you help the evil spirit, you can end the winter night, but it will not completely eliminate the disasters that have already occurred on Earth.
In short, I must help the evil spirit and at the same time destroy the symbols of paganism.
[Let’s try hard. I will help you until the end.]
“Thank you.”
[What.]
Agaf’s words made me laugh for no reason. I arrived at the base with a smile on my face, along with the Demon God’s vessel, which was drunk on Demon Spirit and secreted a lethal amount of dopamine.
******
It’s hard to tell the time because the sun doesn’t rise, but according to the wall clock, it’s evening now.
I gathered people from our base. In addition, survivors who attacked the base in the past were also gathered.
Then the number of people increased significantly.
“There will be an important announcement soon.”
People gathered in the open space where the entrance to the base labyrinth is, eating light snacks and listening to my story.
From now on, I have to tell them about the evil spirit.
“As everyone knows… I went to Busan today.”
Everyone knows that they went to catch heretics in Busan. Everyone nodded silently.
On the other hand, Saeyeon and my girls looked worried as if they had failed in their attack or if something had happened.
“Everyone knows how dangerous and scary the evil spirit is… I’ll explain it roughly. First, there is one good news and one bad news. “I’ll tell you the bad news first.”
People’s expressions darkened greatly when they heard me say there was bad news.
“The bad news is… The evil spirit fanatics will soon flock here. A lot of heretics will come.”
“Ah.”
“Oh my.”
“It’s coming as expected.”
People sighed.
They said a lot of heretics would come, so everyone would have no choice but to sigh.
“Next. The good news is… The evil spirit is on our side.”
“Huh?”
“What?”
“?”
People’s expressions turned strange upon hearing the good news.
They look at me as if I’m saying something strange.
Finally, one of the survivors who escaped from Busan shouted at me.
“Seo, no way!!! Did you fall for the evil spirit’s trick!?”
“What? Oh, my!!!!”
“This, human sacrifice is about to begin. No. No!!!!”
The demons calmed down the people who were convulsing and screaming.
Oh, by the way, all the dark spirits have become demons. The existing dark spirit summoning changed to making a beast, and my dark spirits became beasts or demons. What is the difference between this and a dark spirit…
‘Just the appearance of color?’
Appearance has changed. Originally, the existing dark spirits were just pitch black, in line with the concept of being summoned from the shadows.
I used to be surprised when I ran into all these pitch black guys walking around, but now I feel a little better.
Anyway, he expressed regret to the people who were stopped by the demons.
“I didn’t fall for the trick. “I just signed a fair contract.”
“A contract?”
“We solved several requests from the evil god, and the autonomy of our base was recognized. And it would be convenient to think that all the heretics who will come now… Are actually workers for our base. It might be a little difficult to get used to at first, but they won’t harm us, so just think of someone moving in next door.”
Older people who had difficulty following the direction of the story, such as evil spirits or heretics, simply nodded, while Yeongsik and younger people expressed some regret.
“I had no choice. We had to make a contract to survive, and it turned out that we didn’t have to all become heretics. “For me, it’s the result of my best efforts.”
“Thank you for your hard work!”
“Okay. “I did my best.”
“So now you won’t be attacked by bad guys who are evil spirits or something?”
“Yes. First, me and the evil spirit are on the same boat. “They will probably help us, but they will not attack us.”
Only now did people look relieved. Everyone must be anxious. Not only will there be a sudden influx of heretics into our base, but it will also be unsettling to hear that a real god is watching over us as he pleases.
However, I have already been promised by the evil spirit not to touch the personnel at the base. If the evil spirit wants to continue taking advantage of me, he will probably follow some line.
To put it bluntly, where else can there be a minion like me?
“Then today’s announcement is over! And since there will be a skill reorganization in the future, everyone can match the skill they want from the awakening stone warehouse. It is scheduled to take place this weekend.”
“Oh!”
“How many awakening stones can I use?”
“I think about 7 per person would be enough. Don’t just throw away good things. I think you can bring whatever you think is suitable for your battle.”
“To put it simply, create a skill tree as if you were creating a job.”
“You’re right. If you have trouble choosing a skill or are not sure, you can ask Yeongsik.”
Youngsik is currently in charge of brain at our base. Because I work independently in the highly difficult labyrinth, I have a separate manager and secretary named Agaf, but the other people in the base do not.
Moreover, older people often do not understand game terms such as skill trees or job settings.
At least, Dohyung, who has played Lee
‘Youngsik will figure it out well.’
I have a lot of awakening stones collected, so if I get a useful skill from there, I can just adjust them with my ability stealing skill.
“Well then, thank you all for your hard work today, let’s have a drink and have some fun before welcoming the new brothers and sisters who will come tomorrow!”
“Oh, oh! “I’ve been waiting for this!”
“Okay. “It’s right to have a drinking party after an important announcement.”
Seongho and his father, who had been listening to my story with a disinterested expression the whole time, got angry and brightened the mood by asking for a drinking session.
Crazy people. Although they are my father and brother, they are truly human beings who live as they want.
“Ugh.”
I came down from the ceiling of the bus that I had been standing on as a platform.
I’m glad that everyone is somewhat accepting of it. I wondered what would happen if there were people who threw a fit and shouted against death. I was convinced when I pressed it firmly with a marker. Furthermore, I have to understand. Furthermore, I said I would do that.
“Good job.”
“What. Look at this rather than that.”
“Yep. Horns and tattoos.”
“All the angel rings have disappeared.”
“Now he’s more like my brother.”
“Hair doesn’t grow?”
“If you apply medicine, it will grow.”
I was surrounded by five women and talking about my appearance.
It seems like everyone was a little dissatisfied with my appearance.
Well, if a normal human goes bald and ends up wearing oni horns, an ugly irezumi, and an insane halo, he’s probably going to be dissatisfied.
“It’s been a while, everyone.”
“Huh. Hehe.”
“Wow. “I’m going to warm up today.”
“Hey! Ah, Yoona. What are you saying.”
I went into the room with five other people.
******
He left the women in the room, who seemed to have fainted, and came out, stretching.
My body feels refreshed. The perfect condition to enter the labyrinth.
“Before that.”
I plan to go see the toad alchemist first before entering the labyrinth today.
The request he entrusted to me.
[Challenge: ‘Alchemist’s Request’]
[Achievement conditions: Enter the shared labyrinth ‘Nine Heaven’s Swamp’ and destroy the Hydra’s nest (0/1)]
[Achievement Reward: Alchemist’s Trust, 100 old gold coins]
“Why me?”
Why should I do this?
That’s to get gold coins and invite the alchemist.
So, it was to purchase the alchemist’s elixir.
[Elixir (Replica): A potion that imitates the legendary elixir. When taken, all kinds of negative effects are ‘removed’. If you are not dead, you can be revived.]
[Nectar (replica): A potion that imitates nectar, the drink of the gods. When taken, all abilities temporarily increase, and you enter an ‘invincible’ state that nullifies all attacks.]
[Amrita (replica): This is a potion that imitates the lost elixir, Amrita. When taken, the five senses and combat sense will be extremely heightened for about 10 minutes, and the ‘source’ remaining in the soul will be awakened.]
[Daeseondan (Replica): It is a phantom that imitates Daeseondan, the elixir of the good world. When taken, the ‘Naegongsimbeop’, ‘Fortunate Breakdown’, and ‘Naegajungsu’ skills will be awakened to S rank, and the body will ‘evolve’.]
These four elixirs.
Was it more than 500 gold per bottle?
“Whoa.”
Why do I have to pay full price for this?
Just take it away and that’s enough. All you have to do is steal it, eat it all, lock it in the dimensional market, and order it to be made again and again. But why do I have to pay the full price to buy the medicine after solving this toad bastard’s request?
[Did you bring a gun?]
“Huh. “Something appropriate.”
[Next time, I would like to go to that country called America.]
“I’m going to rob a gun store?”
[Okay. There aren’t many guns in this country.]
“That’s right.”
Now that there is phase shift, if you have a photo, you can teleport to that location. Toad George goes to America. What if I come back from there with a bunch of guns?
“Toad chick. I’ll screw you.”
I threw myself away. To be exact, it was transferred.
The Toad Alchemist’s workshop would normally be accessed only after completing the quest.
However, if there was a phase shift, I could go back to a place I had already been to, so I was able to enter.
