172 < (7). Central Continent Summoner -2 >

Ian asked with a glare.

“Oh, you know the guy with the hair? ”

When Ian asked, the bald man clasped his head and replied.

[I'm well aware. But Selamus is not a man's name.]

“Then?”

The headache continued.

[It's the name of one of the ancient Middle Continent Neutral Tribes.]

Ian thought for a moment and asked again.

“Desert warriors... are they the same? ”

This time, Caesar replied.

“Yes, my lord. If the tribe name of the Desert Warriors who are helping the Kaimon Empire is" Magellan, "think of it as another desert tribe called" Selamus. "”

“ …! ”

Ian's eyes twisted.

If we could get artifacts like Magellan's Symbol at the altar of Selamus, it would have been tremendous.

Ian opens his mouth again.

“So, no sign of Selamus, then? ”

Caesar smiles and replies, knowing what Ian is thinking.

“Hehe, unfortunately, there won't be any. The family of Selamus is said to have been extinct a long time ago. ”

Ian tasted it.

“Phew. Good riddance. Then why did you tell me it was an interesting place? ”

“Like Magellan's sign, we may be able to obtain artifacts with other abilities, even if there are no artifacts that can draw the power of the Neutral Tribe. ”

At Kaisar's words, Ian nods and thinks to himself.

‘Well, if it was the first place I'd find it, there'd be a reward for finding it. ’

And he said one more thing.

It was very tempting for Ian.

[And the Selamus were the only tribe comprised of summoners alone, among the powerful neutral tribes that ruled the ancient central continent.]

Ian's head swung back toward his head.

“What? Really?! ”

Then I glanced at Kaisar.

“Oh, Gazin, how could you forget such an important story? ”

But Caesar just shrugs.

* * *

“Now, let's go our separate ways! Those who will stay on the front lines and fight the Kaimon Empire can go to the barracks there and register for mercenaries, or you'd better surrender to your territory. ”

According to the chief imperial knight, the marching party begins to scatter.

They are the reinforcements of the Ruspel Empire from the eastern continent to the central continent.

Users of the Ruspel Empire, who joined the Reinforcements and moved to the Central Continent, also began to move swiftly.

“Hehe, finally entering the Central continent! ”

Kanoel looks around with a proud look on his face, away from the group.

“Khh, romantic desert. I heard monsters from the Central Continent give a lot of experience. Is that all we have left? ”

Kanoel smiles and turns his head toward the red drake following him.

“Yong Yong, you like it, right? ”

Drake is the Dragon of Canoe's Soul Duo!

Rrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Drake nods with a cheerful look, and Kanoel mutters as he strokes Drake's head.

“Hmm, but I don't know anything about a hunting ground... Should I disconnect and search the community first? ”

At that moment, two men walked out of Kanoel's sight and spoke.

Kanoel listens to their conversation.

I thought I could get the information I needed from them.

“What are you going to do now? You gonna enlist and fight on the front lines? ”

“What a stupid thing to say. We're losing battles at Kaimon, and it's suicide to engage in front-line combat. ”

“I heard that participating is not bad because the reward is so high. ”

“You don't know. It was at first, but now it's so overwhelming it doesn't get much reward. ”

Listening to their conversation, Kanoel holds his head back.

‘Hmm... I heard you're losing the war, but things are worse than I thought. ’

The conversation continued.

“Hmmm... Really? ”

“I told you.”

“So what are you going to do? ”

“I'm thinking of heading to the giant guild territory in the back, registering my save points, and hunting nearby. ”

“Wow, that looks good, too. But I want to go to Pie Land once. Let's stop by there and go. ”

“Pie Territory? Ah... You're talking about the Lotus Guild Territory. I'd love to go there... but that could be dangerous. ”

“Why?”

“The Kaimon Empire probably occupied most of the nearby strongholds by now. Luckily, you won't have to face the Empire army... But if you do, it's still a dead end. ”

“Hmm... Is that so? ”

As Kanoel listens to the conversation between the two of you, he suddenly starts to make his move.

It was because I decided where to go.

Kanoel clenches his two fists.

‘Yes, I forgot that...! I came all the way to the Middle Continent and I can't help but see my idol! ’

The idol Kanoel spoke of was Ian.

After watching Ian's combat footage a few times in the Eucast, Kanoel became Ian's perfect fan.

Ian's ability to wield the battlefield free of all summoners was perfectly consistent with his ideal.

‘Okay, now we just need to figure out where the pie is! ’

Kanoel finds the knight user walking from the front, and makes a quick step towards him.

Unlike other users who had just arrived in the central continent and were well-colored, his armor was full of sand.

I feel like a user who has been in the Central Continent for a long time.

“Excuse me... but can I ask you something? ”

“Yes, go ahead. ”

“No, I just wanted to know which way to get to Pie territory. ”

The man who once glanced at Kanoel's words asked with a curious look on his face.

“Pie, right? You're talking about the Lotus Guild territory, right? ”

“Yes, that's right. ”

“Hmm... Your level is too low... ”

His gaze was towards Kanoel's identity and level.

[Summoner Kanoel - Lv 100]

Kanoel hesitates, and the man continues.

“Well, you've got all the best equipment. I think you'll be able to leave if you just have some control. ”

In reality, Kanoel, the heir to SH Electronics, had about 100 levels of the finest gadgets for gum, and, of course, he was covering all the parts with the finest items.

Kanoel opens his mouth, smiling brightly.

“Oh, thank God. I'm not a bad control freak. Hehe.”

The smiling man pointed his finger at the direction and began to explain.

“Straight out that way...”

* * *

Glug-ug-

“Huh, huh? ”

Ian, who was moving his feet, was embarrassed to see the sand under his feet moving.

“Kaisar, are you sure we can go this way? ”

Caesar nods, his expression not blurry.

“Yes. What would I do if I lied to you?" ”

Kazar walks forward with a loud voice after his speech.

After a while, Ian had to curl his eyes.

Shoot-!

It was because the sand swirled in the shape of a vortex and sucked in Caesar.

And Kaisar disappears from his position.

It would have been a little more accurate to say that it had gone to the ground.

“Huff...! ”

Next to Ian, who was embarrassed, his hair opened his mouth.

[Master, I can feel Kaisar's power inside. I think that's the entrance to the altar that Kaisar mentioned.]

“Oh, yeah? ”

Although the sight of being swallowed up in the sand was quite shocking, Ian did not fall easily, but began to move slowly.

“There's some kind of weird desert monster down here, so you're not going to get eaten...? ”

And before Ian even took five steps.

“Ahhhh!"

With a single scream, Ian's new brother is sucked into the sand of the desert.

And then Pauline and Serie took a walk.

Zek-

After a while, he swallowed up the whole group.) The heap returns as if nothing had happened.

* * *

[You discovered the Altar of Selamus, which contains the history of ancient summoning.]]

[Reputation +100,000.]

[Permanently increases all combat abilities by 10.]

[Permanently increases Leadership and Affinity by 50 each.]

With the sound of system messages echoing in succession, Ian falls into a dark sinus.

Kung-

[Fall from Guardless reduces HP by 175.]

Ian groans in a small voice, his whole body covered in sand.

“Oh, come on, you have to be so psychotic and unfriendly. ”

But apart from the grumbling mouth, he had a single face.

The reward for the first discovery was greater than I expected.

‘What a piece of cake...! I don't know about anything else, but it's real honey as much as leadership and friendliness. ’

After a few moments, the whole group gathers, and Ian starts walking again.

“Kaisar, is this the altar you were talking about? ”

When Ian asks, Kaisar nods without hesitation.

“Yes, this is where I stumbled across the battlefield at the time. ”

With Caesar at the forefront, the group slowly begins to walk inward, and the dark sinuses begin to light up.

‘Hmm... I'm sure there's something in there... ’

But then, I remembered an unwelcome system message.

[A confined basement lacking oxygen.]

[Movement is slowed by 10% and HP is reduced by 0.1% of Max HP per second.]

[HP +127.]

Ian's face was crumpled.

“What, you could die of oxygen deprivation? ”

If your HP decreases by 0.1% per second, 17 minutes means you will run out of HP.

Of course, HP recovery items or skills were able to withstand it, but it was definitely a tricky environment because all personnel's health was reduced.

Kaisar ridicules Ian.

“Not enough training. I won't be harmed by this much oxygen. ”

Then Kazar is the only one left alive.

Ian shakes his head.

‘What a monster.... ’

As you slowly step inside while managing your life, your sinuses widen.

And after a while.

You see an open space in front of the group's eyes, with a large golden statue standing in the middle.

The statue was shaped like a weapon flying into the air for ascension, and an old man standing in front of it with a great rush of momentum on his back.

Ian asked Caesar with a curious expression.

“Do you know that old man, Ga-in? ”

Kaisar nods.

“Of course I know. ”

After a few moments of hesitation, Caesar smiles and opens his mouth slowly.

“You're the only old man alive with a sword to me. ”
