Episode 73
Shoot!
Quaaaaa!
A huge tsunami bombarded Cossant Island. A spell that is large enough to completely cover Cossant Island! X, who was at the center of the tsunami, watched the spectacle with a relaxed expression.
“Hmm, the power is slightly lower.”
As the range is limited, the power is relatively low.
However, it is relative. By general standards, it was a considerable level. Because I wiped out monsters that were at least level 200 in one blow.
Thanks to this, X’s experience level also increased significantly.
Cossant Island was literally devastated. The poor trees were cut down and the land was revealed to look good. X examined Cossant Island, using the Chukji technique appropriately. And it wasn’t long before I discovered a suspicious pattern.
“I guess it’s the same type of curse as the Brand of Destruction?”
X narrowed his eyebrows.
The black letters engraved on the waist-high stone were too suspicious to just pass by. X, who was looking around at the rock, nodded.
‘It doesn’t look like there are any special traps, and I think we can enter the underground if we remove the rocks. Is this brand of destruction the only thing we need to watch out for?’
It is ominous, as if the stigma of destruction will be activated the moment you touch the stone. However, X was receiving the effect of the title of Ancient Kingdom Explorer. Thanks to this, X was free from the stigma of destruction.
X stretched out his hand without hesitation.
[The ‘Stamp of Destruction’ will be engraved on you!]
[The title’s effect will nullify the ‘Stamp of Destruction’!]
As expected, there was a trap hanging at the entrance. X checked the notification and pushed the rock with all his might. Googoo googong! A slab made of stone was visible beneath the stone block. X lifted the slab and a staircase appeared.
‘As the heir said, there was another space under Cossant Island. Plus, the energy I feel is unusual. There are other ghosts.’
X’s eyes sparkled.
Hidden ruins of the ancient kingdom!
What kind of treasure might be hidden? In addition, it seemed that there would be significant progress in the quest to liberate the ancient kingdom’s ghosts that was currently being carried out.
X lit the branch on fire and went down the stairs.
X, who had been going down the stairs for a while, let out an exclamation.
“That was really the tip of the iceberg!”
Cossant Island!
Cossant Island, which was quite large for an island, was only a part of it. On the wall was a drawing of the territory of the ancient kingdom that was once located on the island of Cossant.
The territory of the ancient kingdom, which filled the southern sea, was extremely vast. Although it could not be compared to the central continent, it seemed to be large enough to be called a continent.
X, who was impressed, couldn’t help but feel goosebumps.
“...Has this vast land evaporated because of another being?”
It’s powerful enough to blow up a continent and make it the size of an island.
Indeed, it was the greatest power of darkness in Fate World. But X was not intimidated.
“Well, you have to do that to make the game enjoyable!”
Final Boss!
Because X was the type of person who became more motivated when he had a big goal. Moreover, I know better than anyone else the thrill of defeating an impossible boss.
‘What are the levels of other beings?’
X, slightly excited, hurried on.
When I came down the stairs completely, a wide passageway came into view. Considering that there was a space of this size underground, it was clear that it was a place related to the royal palace.
‘The emergence of a successor also makes sense.’
Cossant Island was the site of a royal palace among the territories of the ancient kingdom. In the underground, like successors, vengeful spirits suffering from other beings will appear.
I can tolerate being criticized, but I can’t tolerate greed! X began searching the graveyard with a more lively expression than ever. In the cemetery, there were unusually many bones that had turned into white bones.
‘Are they the people who hid in the cemetery?’
Those who hid in the graveyard to avoid other beings.
However, it would not have been possible to survive for a long time in a place with nothing to eat or drink. Because the white bones could have been left on the floor, X placed the white bones in the spare space. And then the treasure hunt started again.
“Let me see.”
X searched around while humming and eventually found the stone tablet. It was a fairly large stone slab, and at first glance it seemed to be connected to a hidden space.
“found.”
X pulled the stone slab with a sinister smile. Googoo googong! As the stone slab was dragged, an unbelievable sight unfolded before my eyes. Treasure Chests That’s dozens of treasure chests! It was closed tightly so I couldn’t tell what was inside. That’s why my heart pounded even more.
X walked toward the treasure chest with anticipation.
“Pleasure comes at the end of hardship.”
Rattling.
Dozens of treasure chests move. The closed box opens of its own accord, and long limbs extend out from within the box. The identity of the treasure chest is Mimic!
The hidden space that X found was, without fail, a trap. X’s expression instantly distorted.
Because I had high expectations, the disappointment was even greater.
Kuuk! X suppressed his anger and clenched his fists.
“...Give me the experience points.”
Celebration law!
Bub bub bub! X’s fists hit the Mimics from various angles. Level 250. Although they were Mimics with excellent defense, they were no match for the angry X. X’s will burned as he looked at the shattered treasure chest.
“good. “Let’s see who wins!”
I will definitely find the treasure and escape! X, who declared, began to raid the graveyard more passionately than before. Quagwagwang! But it’s a trap. Kudadadak! Trap again.
“I’ll take as much as I want. “Do you know how much life I have?”
You might get tired of the endless traps, but X was persistent. I searched the graveyard with my whole body, and eventually found a statue hidden behind a mummy.
“...!”
It was a statue with a chicken head and a dog body. The statue was about the size of a water bottle and had a structure that could be stored when the head was raised. I didn’t have any expectations because I had been through so much.
X absentmindedly picked up the statue’s head. When the chicken’s head was opened, bright light emanated from inside the statue.
X’s eyes widened.
“That gold?”
Have you finally found the treasure? Surprised, X reached into the statue with some hesitation.
Then, an unusual golden seal was held in my hand. X checked the item information.
-Forgotten Seal (Legendary)
Effective in forgotten lands.
You might be able to get everything, wealth and fame....
Special Effect: If you place a seal on the Forgotten Lands, you will gain sovereignty and ownership over the Forgotten Lands. You can now conditionally control beings from the Forgotten Lands.
What does this mean?
What is the Forgotten Land and what are the beings of the Forgotten Land? X couldn’t understand the situation. However, the only thing that is clear is that the grade of this royal seal obtained now is ‘Legendary’.
“...Not Unique?”
At this moment, X was the first person in Fate World to obtain a ‘legendary’ grade item.
Slurp. At that moment, X’s legs gave out and he fell to the floor.
And then he raised the corners of his mouth as if he had finally figured out the situation.
“...I have a vague idea that it is a forgotten land.”
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
