‘What is this……. ’
Ian, who swallowed a saliva once, looked at the mysterious creature that appeared before his eyes.
The reason Ian's party is surprised is not something else.
The appearance of life crawling from the inside of the cave was too similar to the 'someone’ of the group.
A lot of people.) There was another one...! ’
If you look closely, the turtle in the Frost Cave looks a little different from a lot.
He was‘ slightly ’smaller than many, and his eyes felt‘ slightly ’rounder.
But it was too easy to distinguish many from many.
It looked almost the same, but the color of the shell was completely different.
His shell was white as snow in the Frost Cave.
Pod, pod, pod.
The man approaches Ian's group with a lovely footstep, and stops at Ian's feet.
Then I opened my mouth.
“Plenty. Who are you? ”
And at that moment, Ian looked ridiculous.
‘You have a lot of accent...' ’
Ian smiles slowly at the turtle in the Frost Cave.
“I am Ian the Summoner. These are my summoners... ”
The story of the summoner made the turtle look more interesting.
“Greetings. I am the Guardian of the Frost Cave. Lots of friends in the game. ”
Seeing the turtle who introduced himself as "Yemuy," Ian looked ridiculous.
“Yep? Who named that? ”
“Of course my friend Pan gave me a lot of names. ”
“ ……. ”
Ian took a closer look at the face of Yemuch.
‘Is this a female...? ’
But even after washing my eyes and examining them, I couldn't find any clues about my gender.
Ian stared at many new friends alternately and opened his mouth.
“Lots of people. You look like you have friends. ”
However, a lot of Ian's words hardened his position.
“What are you doing? ”
Ian waved his fingers in front of many people, but it didn't even work.
Lots of intense eyes, fixed on Yerim.
And seeing that, Ian was able to be certain of the gender of many.
‘It was a female. And many of us... I think you've fallen for him. ’
Lots of shaky eyes.
Nervous, stuffy shell.
A lot of people who were still as still as a statue for a while opened their mouths with a trembling voice.
“A lot……. Plenty.”
And many people who heard many praises made a big face.
“Plenty. Plenty of turtles to know. ”

The role of Yemul in the Frost Cave was to guide users who entered the cave to the 'Test Gate of Plate’.
Easy for you to say, girl.) were like guardians of this frozen cave.
And shortly thereafter, Ian was able to get to where he seemed to be at the first gate.
Abundant.
Yemuch stopped in front of Ian and opened his mouth to Ian.
“Ian, how much do you know about spirits? ”
In response to many questions, Ian scratched the back of his head and answered.
“I don't know. I honestly don't know much yet. The spirits I raised, they're all here. ”
Ian pointed at his shoulder, and Yerim nodded his head and said.
“Phew... Well, then, I guess you'd better start with Gate No. 1. ”
D-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-.
The result of the spark that comes to mind in the white eyes.
And an old statue just to the right.
A lot of people approached him and laid their feet on the side of the statue.
Surprisingly, a gate begins to form in a corner of the boundary.
Heh-heh-heh.
Then the mouths of many fell.
“Before entering the first gate, I'd like to give you a few precautions. ”
“Hmm…? ”
Ian, who was naturally on his way to the gate, stopped and turned his head toward Yemuh.
Then Yerim continued to talk again.
“First things first. We can't summon any summoners inside this gate. ”
“Spirits?”
“Yes.”
“Hmm…. ”
Ian's face slightly crumpled.
However, the impossibility of the summoner is a deadly penalty for Ian.
“And two. There is only one chance to challenge the Gateway, and the total number of Gateways is three. ”
“If you fail, won't you be able to challenge again? ”
“Yes.”
A few moments later, Yerim glanced around.
Then slowly opened his mouth again.
“Finally……. This Gateway can challenge up to five people to a party. ”
“Hmm…? ”
“But it doesn't matter how difficult the challenge is with the people and the gate. ”
“So, you want to say it's bad for you to challenge yourself? ”
“A lot. A lot of smart people. ”
When Ian heard the explanation, he was troubled for a moment.
‘Hmm, what should I do...? ’
If there were not a second of many cautions, Ian would have entered the gate alone without hesitation.
After all, the quest difficulty was only class C, so I was confident enough by myself.
However, when I heard that there was only one chance to challenge the gate, I had to be careful no matter how careful Ian was.
Do we have to open up the portal and get the kids? ’
In Ian's head, there were several figures that came to mind momentarily.
If Ian had called, there would have been three followers (?).
With Hun, Kanoel, and the Shrine, Ian would probably stop what he was doing as soon as he called.
‘Phew……. Yeah, well, it's easy for Solple, but there's no need to take any chances. ’
After clearing his mind, Ian took the beads out of his inventory to open up a dimensional portal.
But his actions could not continue there.
It was because I heard a strange voice from behind the moment I took out the bead and held it in my hand.
“Now, hold on! ”
Immediately, Yemuch and Ian looked back at the direction of the sound.
In addition, Ian took his hand to the spear so that he could fight at any time.
The voices heard were definitely human voices.
There was a good chance it was a user, and then it would be a user of a foreign server.
Of course, there was no reason for other server users to be hostile to Ian, but it was not bad to be careful.
And after a while.
“Heh, heh. ”
“Whoa, you're good at running, right? ”
One or two women who looked the same appeared in front of Ian.
Ian looked at the faces of the two women, still not relaxed.
‘Twins...? It's not NPC, is it? ’
Ian opens his mouth to two women who appear to be summoners.
“Who…? ”
But the words that came out of the woman's mouth, Ian had not thought of.
“Huh? Someone doesn't know me? Are you not a user? ”
“ ……? ”
Ian looked ridiculous for a moment.
But apart from Ian like that, the two women started chattering.
“Vanessa, are you stupid? ”
“Why would I do that? ”
“No, can't you see he's on a quest? Have you ever seen an NPC on a quest? ”
“Eh……. On second thought, yes. ”
Ian watched the conversation between the two women with a blank look, and the two women continued to talk.
“But, Sis, how can the user not know us? ”
“I know. I'm curious about that. ”
As the conversation continued, Ian became even more absurd, and eventually intervened in the conversation between the two people.
“Hey……. ”
“Huh?"
“Thinking that all users will know you……. Where the hell did that come from? ”
And if Ian's question was surprising, Vanessa immediately became speechless.
“Well, well……. ”
Instead, Sarah, the twin sister next to her, opens her mouth to Ian.
“That's it, this is fourth place. ”
“ ……? ”
“I'm in seventh place. ”
“Well……. ”
“At least there's no one in Germany who doesn't know the rankers Duo 'Sarah and Vanessa’. ”
And as soon as her last words were over, Ian understood their confidence.
‘Ah……. These guys must have been rankers on the German server. Well, if the twin sisters rank fourth and seventh respectively in this prominent outfit, maybe no one will recognize them in Germany. ’
The assumption that you might encounter a user of a foreign server who did not expect to appear too abruptly.
‘If they are German, by the way……. How the hell are they talking to me? Does the Kailan system itself have simultaneous interpreting capabilities? ’
Ian once again admired LB's technology.
But only for a little while.
It was more important to make a decision about this sister right away.
‘First, let's find out whether the PK Family is going to be a family. ’
Sarah and Vanessa may be famous on German servers, but Ian has never seen them before.
Ian has no idea what they're like.
The first thing to check was whether PK was possible or not.
Ian flinches a light debuff skill at Vanessa in a nearby location.
- The Summoner has triggered the magic of Elkalix, Slow.
- ‘Debuff’ is not available for this target.
‘Hmm, I don't think PK between users...' ’
Ian's mouth dries up.
If PK is not possible, the utility of these twin sisters will be infinite.
Let's go hang out with the kids for a while. ’
Ian felt better.
If you treat these sisters well, you'll have a new workforce (?).
There is no reason to summon Hun or Noel.
And when his mind was cleared, Ian's head began to spin rapidly.
‘Based on their conversation now.... You probably don't know the secrets of the middle world, do you? ’
Sarah and Vanessa thought Ian was "of course" German.
This means that we don't know yet that the spirit system is based on an integrated server.
Then Ian didn't think they needed to know the only information he had.
Ian shuddered and started acting.
“Oh, really? You're in fourth and seventh place? ”
Ian looks surprised and looks at the two women alternately.
Vanessa nods with a smug look to see if she liked the reaction.
“I see? I'm ranked # 1 in summoners, even! ”
“Oh!”
Ian opens his eyes and reacts to Vanessa's words as if he was really surprised.
Sarah and Vanessa get excited and start talking about themselves, and Ian struggles to confront them.
“But how can you not know us? ”
“Yeah, and even if you were in the spirit system.... You must be quite a ranker. ”
“Oh, I've always played alone. ”
“Oh, really? ”
“And on second thought, I think I've heard of you. ”
“I knew it! I knew it! ”
After a while, Yerim, who was staring at them, touched Ian's leg.
I was bored listening to the conversation.
“So, Ian, are you going to challenge them? ”
However, it was not Ian who answered Yemuch's question.
I became friends with Ian (?) The two sisters opened their mouths first.
“Right, Ian? Are you gonna party with us? ”
“Of course she's talking! We'll take care of her. Of course Ian wants to be with you. ”
The two sisters fell into Ian's hands.
