To the north of Mount Spirit, there are four tall, majestic peaks.
Four different peaks, each named Shaya, Horn, Mataya and Lufan.
These four peaks were raised in the form of diamonds, perfectly symmetrical, and were very special among many regions of Mount Spirit.
It was the only frozen place in the middle of the Spirit Mountain where all life was lost and frozen.
“But ironically, a long time ago, our Goral race called these four peaks Vita Stella. ”
“Vita Stella……. What's that supposed to mean? ”
“The Star of Life." ”
“Ah……. ”
Of course, it was not just these four peaks that lost the power of life within Mount Spirit.
Since the invasion of the machine civilization, many areas of their hands have turned grey.
But these four peaks, called Vita Stella, were completely run from those places.
They were ‘contaminated’ by the magic of machine civilization, but these four peaks were not contaminated at all.
Vita Stella was a special area sealed in the waves, losing its own life force long before the invasion of machine civilization began.
“Perhaps our ancestors had foreseen the situation. ”
“What do you mean? ”
“Many parts of the spirit system have rotted here by machine civilizations, but ‘Vita Stella’ is not contaminated at all. ”
“Oh, really? Why is that? ”
“The reason is simple. ”
“ ……? ”
“Vita Stella, who's been frozen for a long time, has had no interest in the invaders of machine civilization. ”
“Oh, there's a reason for that. ”
“I've lost the power of all life, but at the same time I'm not contaminated by anything...... Vita Stella is a special area. ”
Lilson, an outstanding ‘explorer’ class ranker, is highly regarded throughout all of Kailan's servers.
Lilson, who has found a lot of hidden content using the traits and skills of the explorer class, has always been the lighthouse of the Lotus Guild.
And that's why she's in the Spirit Realm now.
Due to the influx of the most users, unlike the relatively open commandments, the contents of the Spirit Realm were still heavily veiled.
Sharing hidden information with the guild as quickly as possible is the biggest contribution available to the 'Explorer’ class users!
With a lot of equipment from the Lotus Guild, Lilson was still working hard to accommodate him today.
“Then the Elder mentioned Vita Stella because of a clue about the Ruins of the Holy Spirit?"
“Exactly. ”
“But the ruins of the Holy Spirit are in a ‘place full of the power of life'... Weren't Vita Stella the area where all life was lost? ”
“It's just a story, actually, not too long ago. ”
“ ……? ”
“Surprisingly, a few days ago, life began to erupt in one of Vita Stella's peaks. ”
“Such a thing……! ”
“Vita Stella is a place where the power of life has been sealed for a long time, and probably has tremendous potential. ”
“Maybe so. ”
“It suddenly occurred to me that this might be the place where the ruins of the Holy Spirit lie asleep. ”
What Lilson is looking for now, on Mount Spirit, are ancient spiritual ruins.
They were the most powerful clues to the main scenario of the Spirit Realm, and they were like "treasure hoards" where a lot of hidden content was connected.
Despite discovering hidden clues and getting here, there was a lot of effort and time for Lilson.
“If you can find the ruins of the Holy Spirit, it should be possible to find the clues Elisha left behind. ”
“Phew. We're gonna make it, Elder. ”
“Good luck, Ball Lilson. ”
Scared to the end of the conversation, system messages begin to pop up in front of Lilson's eyes.
- Tyring!
- The conditions are met.
- The 'Ruins of the Hidden Spirit Ⅱ (Epic) (Association)' Quest has been triggered.
- The 'Spirit Journal A-5' is increased by 1.5 percent.
-A 0.4 percent increase in job proficiency.
…… Snapshot……
And after confirming it, she clenched two fists without my knowing it.
That's it!
The connection quest was a sign that the quest was going in the right direction.
Like a womanizer and explorer, Lilson is completing the quest as expected!
‘Yes. If you were the first explorer to meet the Spirit King, you might be able to get a clue as to how to level up your ranks. ’
But not everything is always sober.
Towards Lilson, who has never been more uplifted, the words of Goral Elder's Clean Walls continue.
“But Ball Lilson, before I go to Vita Stella, I have one thing to do. ”
“What... is that?" ”
The Elder's pupils began to shake, feeling an unknown ominousness, and it soon came true.
“If there is a ruin of the Holy Spirit in Vita Stella, it must be in the Valley of Life.“ ”
“The Valley of Life……. ”
“A deep, beautiful valley of endless flowing water of life with the power of life. ”
“But why is that...? ”
“The problem is there is no way a mere mortal can enter the Valley of Life. ”
“ ……! ”
“To pass through the powerful barrier of life that protects it, you need a special presence. ”
Goral Elder said that Lilson suddenly became depressed.
"Oh, what else am I supposed to get? I hope you ordered me to do something.... ’
The elder's words slowly followed with a few moments of excitement.
“Find the fountain of life somewhere on Spirit Mountain first. And if you meet Charta, the guardian spirit, try asking him for help. ”
“Chartara the Spirit.... ”
“He's a tricky one, so I don't know if he'll do us any favors, but he'll know how to get through the barrier of life. ”
Subsequently, in front of her eyes, a system message pops up again.
- Tyring!
- Preceding Quest, 'Finding the Spirit Chartar’ triggers.
Then she began to read the quest window with a slightly confused look.
* * *
“So...... you want this guy I just caught? ”
“Yes, Ian. If we're going to get into the Valley of Life, we need Charta's help. I was wondering if you could help me. ”
“Hmm, how can I help you? ”
“I just need you to lend me Charta for half a day. because I'll be out of the valley as soon as I raise the water of life in the valley. ”
“You can raise the water of life from this well of life, right? ”
“With this low concentration of water of life, there's no chin. ”
“Hmm, the Valley of Life.... ”
After a few days in search of the Valley of Life, Aren was able to find a valley at the foot of the Shaia Mountains.
A big canyon where the fountain snow that was piled up was not yet melted, and a saffron valley that was pouring down like a lie.
But Aren is unable to get close to the valley.
The translucent barriers that were blocking her surroundings blocked her path as if she were alive.
He tried to squeeze in between them somehow, but his body was pushed out like a lie by an unknown power.
Later, what Aren learned was the existence of the Spirit 'Charta’.
Her spirit and the ancient water spirit, ‘Lulu’, taught me how to revive an ancient memory.
- Charta, the guardian of life, knows how to get in here, Master.
- Charta?
He's a guardian of the fountain of life, and he's an ancient spirit.
- ……!
- Let's go find him and ask him, Master.
- Do you want to do us a favor?
- I'll talk to him.
However, Arene, who had only found 'Charta’, saw a very confused scene.
We saw the scene of ‘Charta’, the spiritual ancient spirit master, being captured and thrown into the hands of humans.
"Even our Elven Necromancers are hard to tame, but Humans tame Ancient Spirits!" ’
Even Ian is abusing Charta. Aren, who had not seen any of the process, seemed to be a really great animist.
Like Pan, the legendary human animist of the past.
So, Aren asked Ian with a really respectful look.
“No offense, but do me a favor, Ian. With the water of life, my grandfather can be healthy again. ”
“Hmm……. ”
“If you help me, I will reward you! ”
As soon as Aren finished speaking, a familiar tone rang out in Ian's ear.
- Tyring!
- The conditions are met.
- Flash quest triggered.
- The 'Elf Necromancer' Quest (Hidden) is triggered.
And of course, Ian's eyes, which confirmed that the quest was triggered, began to sparkle.
‘This smells funny... ’
Ian was actually going to help Aren, even if he didn't have a quest.
More precisely, I wanted to follow her to a place called the Valley of Life.
According to Arene, there must have been some content there related to Charta, so Ian couldn't help but wonder.
As soon as I came up with this Hidden Quest, I could say Ian had enough motivation to move.
“Help me get to the Valley of Life.... ”
“Yep! Please. ”
Ian's eyes meet Aren's mouth again, grinning.
“Instead, I have one condition. ”
“Condition…? ”
Towards the slightly anxious expression of Arene, Ian says a few moments.
“I should go with you to that valley of life. If you accept these conditions, I'll help you. ”
With Ian's answer, Arene's large eyes widened.
In response to Ian's unthinkable answer, I will be impressed.
“Are you sure? ”
Ian said that out of greed for new content, but he interpreted it completely differently.
‘You can just lend me Charta for a while, but I can't believe you'll help me...! ’
Something a little (?) There was a misunderstanding, but after all, Arene's love for Ian rose rapidly…….
“Well, thank you, Ian. Thank you so much……! ”
That's how Ian and Aren began their journey to Shaia peak.
