841 < 838.5. Guardian Secret >

Gulp.

At the time when the employees of Planning Team 1 cried out, there was another person watching Ian's marvelous march.

It was one of the three evil gods who manages the ruins, Tuares.

He was so consumed by spirituality that he was locked in meditation that he stood up in his place after seeing what was happening outside the tower.

The sight he saw, it really doubted both eyes.

- Oh my god...!

Tuares' pupils, which had secretly groaned, began to twitch.

"How can there be such a crazy soul in the middle?" ’

Ancient Guardians, created by the gods of the past.

The ancient gods used their personality to give the Guardians combat power, something so powerful that an ordinary middleman could never defeat.

Of course, if it was a middle-class soul that had trained its soul just before gaining its pride, Ian would be able to deal with it, but there were even three guardians.

I never imagined that this would be possible without confidence.

- Phew...

Tuarez is confused in his mind by the combat power of the challenger he didn't expect.

The challenger seen inside the crystal sphere was suddenly inside the ruins, and Tuares' head of seeing it began to rotate more complex.

‘Yi, what should I do? If he's crazy, he'll be down to the bottom in an hour... ’

Beyond surprise, Tuarez is in chaos and panic.

The reason why he was so restless was simple.

If the challenger outside the common sense came down to the bottom, he would be the last person to deal with it.

‘I haven't recovered half my spiritual strength yet……. ’

The role of Tuarez in the ruins of this evil spirit was to measure the ability of the challenger to come down to the very bottom, giving him the appropriate qualifications and ancient titles.

I was able to take the artifacts from the ruins according to their qualifications.

But because of that crazy middleman, things got tangled up tight.

If the situation had unfolded like this, it would have been extinct even before Ian's ability was measured.

To put it simply, Tuares didn't have the slightest self-interest left to deal with Ian on his own.

"If spirituality were intact, would we be able to defeat him? ’

In the chaos, he made a few assumptions in his head, but he eventually had to shake his head.

It seemed impossible to defeat Ian unless the body with the stature was enlightened.

‘If I didn't have that Zion trait sword, I would try.... ’

Tuarez tried to blame the Judgment Sword of the Holy Spirit in Ian's possession for his self-esteem.

Of course, the Zion attribute, which to evil spirits was the worst, would have a great impact on the battle, but in the end, he was also just a meaningless excuse for evil gods.

Tuares didn't even know that Ian was still holding the "Judgment Sword," but only realized that it was a weapon of Zion's attributes.

In fact, it was often seen by challengers looking for demonic ruins to prepare equipment with the attributes of 'Zion.’

‘Now, let's roll your head, Tuares. What's the best choice in this situation? ’

If the challenger comes down to the bottom and silences him, he will have to be laughed at.

Evil gods were defeated by the challengers of the intermediate world after only five fingers during their cowardice.

The proud Tuarez had no desire to embrace such dishonor.

Jerk-jerk-jerk-.

Ian and his group continue to walk towards the entrance of the tower as Tuares roll their heads.

After experiencing a slight drowsiness, Tuares is finally able to find a good solution just before Ian's group enters the tower.

‘Yes, if this is the way...! ’

The moment Ian's group enters the tower.

-Kmm, khmm...!

He clears his mind and slowly opens his mouth with a heavy voice.

Not alone, but in a loud voice that will be heard all over the inside of the tower.

* * *

The most important thing in the ruins of the Holy Spirit was an item called the "Light of the Holy Spirit," which was obtainable while entering the ruins.

I was able to use it as a currency and take the artifacts, and in fact, it was a reward.

Therefore, Ian thought that there would be certain elements in the ruins of evil spirits as well.

No matter what form it takes, the structure itself will be similar.

‘Maybe in the same hall inside the tower, you can drop items of a similar nature. ’

So Ian entering the tower became even more tense.

He was determined to sweep every artifact in the ruins.

“Perhaps there's a place at the bottom here where the artifacts are buried. ”

“Really?"

“While Lilson's on the move, keep an eye on the ruins to see if there are any clues about the artifact. ”

“I see. Of course it's for the explorer. ”

Ian nods in response, curiously stepping into the entrance of the tower.

But the moment I entered the tower.

Ian was embarrassed from the start.

Before Ian's ears were about to go down to the basement, he heard a strange, heavy voice.

- A great soul to defeat the Ancient Guardians with the body of a middleman.

“ ……? ”

- This further trial is meaningless, giving you the right to pass the Hall of Evil.

“Huh?"

The reason Ian was embarrassed was simple.

Tokens such as the "Light of the Spirit" in the trials to come (?), because this unidentified voice was saying that the test is no longer meaningless.

What, am I wrong? Unlike the Ruins of the Holy Spirit, acquiring artifacts isn't the way to exchange them? ’

Ian looks a little anxious.

We had to get as much as the ’Sword of Judgment of Evil' as we could, but we felt anxious that if the owner of that voice continued to reward us as he wanted, we might get another artifact without any choice.

‘Then it's very difficult.... ’

But I didn't have time to worry about Ian any more.

Suddenly, the red aura settles beneath Ian's group's feet.

It was like a warp gate that summoned them somewhere.

Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!

A vision filled with dark red light without Ian's help.

Soon Ian's group's vision will be restored.

Numerous messages began to appear in front of their eyes.

- Tyring!

- The Ruins Manager, Tuarez, summoned you.

- Passed all ancient trials.

- You already have the title 'Passer of the Abyssal Exam (Hero) (Transcendent)’, giving you an additional 100,000 (Transcendent).

- You already have the title 'Passer of the Demonic Trial (Hero) (Transcendent)’, giving you an additional 100,000 (Transcendent).

- The title ‘He Who Passed the Examination of the Holy Spirit (Heroic) (Transcension)' …….

…… approximate……

- Go to the lower level, Thorga's tower.

- Qualified, "Enrolled in the Ancient Chapel".

- The Ruins Manager has invited you.

- Entering the Ruins of Evil.

* * *

- Welcome, challenger. I've been waiting.

A familiar ambassador that I seem to have heard somewhere.

Ian naturally moved his gaze toward the direction of his voice, where he could find NPCs that looked as familiar as his voice and metabolism.

“Oh, you……! ”

An evil god, Tuares, with two large horned helmets and an embossed armor with complex symbols.

Ian found himself in an unknown rage (?) was twitching.

His appearance was the bust he had assembled to break the first seal.

‘That armor's shape makes it hard to fit the pieces! ’

However, since it was not a situation to be angry, Ian began to open his mouth to him with a calm expression.

“Were you the manager of the ruins here? ”

In Ian's question, Tuares nods and answers.

- I'm actually one of the managers.

“There must be a lot of administrators. ”

- That's right.

This time, Tuares, who answered Ian's question, began to open his mouth to him.

- I've been watching your work. You deserve the power of the ruins.

Unlike his hideous appearance, Ian replied with a trembling look, looking at friendly Tuares.

“Well, did you? ”

But Tuares, without hesitation, spoke again.

- And by the authority of my manager, I have waived all the trials you have to take.

“ ……! ”

- I'll give you some Demon Fragments to trade for the ruins, so get in here and exchange for the artifacts you want.

“Hmm…? ”

When Ian listened to Tuares' explanation, he looked strange.

Again, there was a kind of money needed to obtain the artifact here in the ruins of the evil spirit, and there was something ironic about the painting given directly by the Ruins Administrator.

However, it didn't take long for that strange expression to crumple.

After the words of Tuares, the contents of the message that came to mind made Ian's mind very uncomfortable.

- You have completed the ‘Test of Evil God Tuares Ⅰ’ Quest.

- Obtain two ‘Devil's Fragments’ items.

- You have completed the ‘Trial of Evil God Tuares Ⅱ’ Quest.

- 'Devil's Fragment’ item…….

…… approximate……

- You have completed the ‘Exam of Evil God Tuarez' quest.

- Obtain two ‘Devil's Fragments’ items.

All of the tests that were supposed to have been taken were cleared and cleared, and only ten pieces of inventory were entered in the process.

When Ian thought it was the same standard as the ruins of the Holy Spirit, he felt almost deceived.

However, there was no way of knowing Ian's inner state, and Tuares continued to speak with a pleasant voice.

- If you had, you would have passed all my trials and paid for all ten fragments.

Ian became even more uncomfortable with the colorful talk of Tuares.

“ ……. ”

On the other hand, Lilson looks encouraged, looking at the debris from his inventory.

- This should be enough to swap for a messy artifact.

“Oh…! ”

And Tuares, who once stared at them, shakes his hand in the air with a shrug.

Then, just as in the ruins of the Holy Spirit, a multitude of light shook and began to shine.

The red swarms were then transformed into fabulous ruins.

“Awesome!”

When he saw the cheerful Lilson, he became more satisfied and opened his mouth again to them.

- How you doing, challengers? Satisfied?

Tuarez waits for Ian's answer with a secretly anticipated expression.

But the next moment, Tuarez almost had to chew the shit out of his face.

The answer that came out of Ian's mouth was something I had never even dreamed of.

“Hey.”

- ……?

“Are you kidding me? ”
