Episode 110
The blockade of the Crossfire Guild.
Fafnir’s party made a seat with Cromwell again there on the promised day.
“Let the story begin.”
The story to tell was, of course, about the sale of quest items.
“how… … . Did you know enough?”
“so so.”
“So the result… … .”
“Sell it, everything over there.”
But it wasn’t completely all.
From noble mtl dot com.
“I’m going to give ten of them to him.”
Fafnil pointed his finger at Kim Chul.
“Doing business with Kim Cheol?”
“We agreed to cooperate on the condition that we hunt together.”
“that… … . He is also Fafnil. That Kim Cheol rolled up his tail first.”
Cromwell praised and glanced at Kim Chul.
“So the number of sales is… … ?”
“I have 22, the other two have 11 and 8, respectively. A total of 41.”
The amount of hunting in two weeks was over 200, so it was only 1/5 of the amount.
“Is that all?”
“No, because I have to give 10 to Kim Chul.”
“All right. Then we must move on to the most important matter.”
Cromwell wiped the sweat from his brow.
“What do you think the price is?”
“7 gold each. I won’t sell anything less than that.”
“7 gold?”
It went up 2 gold more than the previous 5 gold.
“Isn’t that too expensive?”
“The hardships of hunting are not common. It has to be this much to pay off.”
Of course it’s a lie.
Even before recruiting Kim Chul, they caught more than 10 fish per hour.
“That’s too expensive. I’ll hit you with 5 gold and 50 silver… … .”
“Seven gold.”
“Fafnir-nim, if we weren’t a quest item… … .”
“Seven gold.”
Fafnir grinned as he finished speaking.
The sad thing is that
‘Trying to hit such a precious item with 5 gold.
The grade was not disclosed, but if it was controlled at the guild level, it must be high-end.
But if you try to hit it here, write it.
“Do you know how expensive 1 gold is? That’s 100,000 won. do it twice more… … .”
“Seven gold.”
“under… … . 6 gold and 10 silver. 6 Gold 10 Silver! whopping… … .”
Cromwell was also quite a tricky opponent in negotiations.
I’m not good at talking.
Because of the sweat flowing from the whole body.
To be precise, the sweat on his forehead reflected the light and attacked his eyes.
A trump weapon that has always overturned opponents in negotiations!
Still, Fafnil was immovable.
reason? Simple.
It’s because the status window is floating around the eyes.
“Seven gold.”
Anyway, the only thing I regret is the Crossfire side.
Finally, Cromwell let out a deep sigh.
“Whoa… … . All right. 7 gold. You get 7 gold each.”
“Okay, 7 gold!”
So the deal was done.
41 for 7 gold, so a total of 287 gold was received.
“It’s done.”
“Oh, I have a request for you.”
“yes?”
“Thinking about it, I thought I could stay there a little longer. Can I do that?”
“hmm… … . You see.”
Cromwell meekly agreed.
* * *
after the transaction is over.
“nice… … . Damn you guys.”
Crackle! The empty honey flask fell to the ground and was smashed.
“What kind of Kim Doo-han are you? What is 7 gold? 7 gold.”
Cromwell stamped his feet with a flushed face.
I hate it more and more every time I see it.
It was true, but during the negotiations, Shihyeon’s whispers made the top spin.
“It’s bald… … . bald head… … ? Let’s see, I’ll let you know how painful it is to be shot in the head by that bald head!”
Suddenly, Cromwell’s teeth gnashed.
Everything was ready for the giant.
“That guy, Kim Chul, never thought he would accept the request right away.”
The content was simple.
I’ll take care of the reward, so kill Fafnir’s party.
Contrary to the rumors that it was an open sale, Kim Cheol willingly accepted the request.
It’s saying that I’ll think about it, but judging from the instructions given afterward, it was a clear acceptance.
‘I have work to do, so don’t intervene in the meantime…’ … . I said we’d play together after that.’
“What about the PVP preparation group?”
“I am ready. Shall we sortie?”
At the adjutant’s words, Cromwell shook his head wiping his sweat.
“Wait, Kim Chul hasn’t sent a signal yet.”
There’s nothing good about going against Kim Chul’s displeasure.
Especially now, with the big day ahead.
“Anyway, they believe in Kim Chul, and I don’t think we’ll do anything. Let’s take care of it, definitely.”
“Ah, yes.”
“Okay, so I can keep working.”
Anyway, if Kim Cheol sent a signal, those guys would be dead.
“Kids… … . I must show the bitter taste of society.”
Cromwell, who looked like a red-hot takoyaki, raised his mouth.
‘Kim Chul doesn’t take on kills very well. It’s because it’s too annoying for myself.’
Once the target is killed, the game is closed, or it is smashed to the point where it is difficult to recover.
That is Kim Cheol.
A transcendent strong man who is treated as a great guild-level player by himself.
Even the large guild, Crossfire, was a giant that could not be touched carelessly.
‘As long as you’re caught by that cruel guy, you guys won’t be safe either, keuhuh!’
* * *
Meanwhile, Kim Cheol, the owner of that cruel maniacal obsession, was passing by none other than Cromwell’s feet.
‘Coke tea secret passage 6th floor’.
A mysterious place that no one but Kim Chul knows about.
He gave a kindly explanation to the target he had promised Cromwell to slaughter with a commercial smile.
“Right here, employer.”
Cheol Kim smiles in vain under the yamyeongju stuck in the ceiling.
“eww… … . That person seems to have changed.”
“Yeah, I will.”
The moment you decide on an employer.
Kim Chul’s attitude changed in an instant, as if his personality had changed 180 degrees.
Even if they had such a temperament from the beginning, they were a group that could not be easily accepted.
“Anyway, it’s pretty bright here.”
“It feels like electricity goes through it.”
It was a far underground passage, but there was no need to light a torch.
This was because every wall or ceiling was studded with glowing crystals.
– Witnessed the dwarves’ skills.
– Art status has increased by +1.
– You can gain proficiency when you have knowledge related to magical engineering.
‘It’s a waste.’
Even though the underground passage was a deep dungeon, not a single monster could be seen.
Thanks to that, Fafnir and the others were able to travel comfortably.
“Elizabeth, be patient. My brother will take you to the dwarves right away.”
Kim Cheol quickly walked down the aisle with slow steps.
Sihyeon temporarily repaired it, but it was first aid.
If it is not properly repaired, the mace will not be usable again.
‘Still, I didn’t swing the sword recklessly. Is there a difference between the attitude of the client and the general public?’
Still, you should refrain from being too rude.
Fafnir, who followed, tilted his head.
“Wait, is this the right way?”
In the underground passage, there were more than three forks at each corner. It was only natural that Kim Cheol was a little worried as he walked without even looking at a map.
“of course. It is also a road that I have come often.”
Kim Chul pointed at his nose.
“Because I can smell it.”
“hmm… … .”
After hearing the explanation, I immediately understood.
Why?
me too
‘It might be something like a dhampir, but it’s rude to ask about a job, so it’s useless to ask.’
Class is information and money.
Instead, Fafnir asked another question.
“By the way, Kim Chul, can I ask you something?”
“You can say anything.”
“As for catching the crystal golem, how many hours did it take to catch one?”
“one… … . Six hours?”
Only 1-3% in 6 hours.
That’s the cost-effectiveness that doesn’t come out of labor cost.
“Is there any efficiency? I don’t think I’ll get any experience, so why… … .”
“It wasn’t that I was aiming for experience points. It was because of skill proficiency.”
It becomes rapidly difficult to raise proficiency from skills of rare grade or higher.
If you don’t fight a strong enemy or boss, your proficiency won’t rise at all.
To see or learn the skills of other special jobs, the skill level goes up.
“These guys are hardy, and they dodge well, so they’re perfect for training.”
“That’s right, I also dug powder from the golem for that… … .”
“I did too. Lizardman skin or something like a tattoo… … .”
The other two people’s complaints burst out one after another.
‘Come to think of it, I have those skills too.’
Elite Skeleton Soldier (Rare), Elite Skeleton Knight (Unique) Ministry, etc.
In order to raise this skill level, it was necessary to turn the corpse of a powerful object into a skeleton soldier.
‘There must be conditions for Dhampir’s skills… … .’
Surely you don’t have to vampirize to climb?!
The thought of finding a serum pack or drooling over the soup already sent chills down my spine.
“Everyone is coming.”
Kim Chul, who had been walking for a long time, stopped in front of a device.
“Good job, Elizabeth. I’ll fix it soon… … .”
Kirik. Kirik. click!
When the device was aligned, one side of the wall opened and a staircase appeared.
“Let’s go.”
“Wow, what a surprise!”
“To think there is a facility like this… … .”
A passage in an unexpected place.
If it was someone I didn’t know, I would have missed it.
“You can go up now.”
Fafnir and the others climbed the stairs and headed upward.
– Coke came from the secret passage.
You can feel the cool breeze as soon as you open the door.
tweet.
You can hear birds chirping in the distance, and there are plenty of trees and grass around you.
“What is it, a forest?”
“Come this way.”
As soon as I moved along with Kim Chul, the forest ended.
After crossing the low hill, a huge rocky mountain begins to appear.
It was completely hollowed out in the middle, spewing smoke and fire.
“and… … !”
“this… … . Town?”
They said it was a village of dwarves.
From noble mtl dot com.
A huge city on the level of Aluin City was visible.
“That’s amazing.”
A dwarven city full of bricks, walls, and various buildings.
Crossbows the size of three or four people or early-type cannons with magic stones were lined up on the wall.
The most amazing thing is the waterfall.
A waterfall the size of several buildings was flowing down the side of the city, as if processing groundwater in the rock.
‘Even in modern times, it wouldn’t be easy to build a city like that.’
The entire wall of the city was covered with a transparent curtain.
Barrier to keep intruders out.
The same thing was installed far outside the aisle where Kim Chul came out.
‘In the original novel, a city like this didn’t appear… … .’
Flush hunted around here, but the dwarves were elsewhere.
‘Then this must be where the dwarves that Flush rescued were originally located.’
A unique quest to rescue the dwarves captured by the mysterious powers of the black magician and the undead.
At that time, Flush rescued and armed the dwarves one by one, and created an alliance by attracting fairies, humans, and even native monsters.
‘But now the power of the dwarves is strong.’
Flush saved the dwarves and naturally made friends.
But now?
I’d be glad if you just sent it back.
If you’re unlucky, you’ll be identified as an aggressor and chased.
‘How do you get the trust to get in there… … ?’
It was then.
“There is no time for this! Let’s go quickly!”
In a hurry.
Kim Cheol approached and shouted with the pieces of the mace in his hand.
“hey! Lumpy inspiration! Call me some inspiration!”
“Hump-beaked inspiration… … ?”
It’s not some kind of fairy tale.
It was a moment when sisters Sihyeon and Siyeon laughed.
Dooung.
Drums rang in the middle of the mighty fortress.
Doo Woong.
Shadows appear all over the walls.
Cannons and crossbows were aimed at the front.
“… … Who are you!”
finally.
A middle-aged man’s voice was heard.
“it’s me! I, Kim Cheol!”
“Who?”
On top of the castle wall, a Dwarven guard showed his face.
Numerous dwarves lined up on both sides of it.
‘What equipment… … !’
Everyone had mana wrapped around the tip of the sword, and the equipment they were wearing all looked like a rare level or higher.
They are the elite who take level 200 monsters lightly.
‘That level of people is just security.’
The real Dwarven warriors who fight must be stronger than they are.
What if they riot on the battlefield wearing the gear they made with determination?
“Oh, Gimuchial! It’s been a while since I came, so I didn’t remember!”
“Because it’s Kim Chul!”
At the guard’s words, Kim Cheol raised the broken mace.
“Anyway, let me in! Elizabeth is sick!”
“Um… … .”
The dwarven guard looked at it carefully and nodded.
“Okay, open the door now.”
No, that easy?!
The moment Fafnir feels empty.
– Grrrung.
The whole city vibrated like a loud cry.
The huge rock in the middle began to magically open on both sides.
