Chapter 467
479. Strange Artifact
Sehyung Kim’s job, Savior Knight, is a tank-type job.
The reflection skill itself is not irrelevant to the tanker, but it is usually not obtained unless you take the shield tanker route, so it does not go well with Kim Se-hyung, who uses a halberd, and a skill that hides or escapes like a warp portal blocks attacks and protects allies The compatibility itself does not match with the tanker.
“In short, the two skills Kim Se-hyung used are not ‘Savior Knight’ skills.”
“You can use skills that have nothing to do with your job?”
“Isn’t that a little surprising?”
Kang Seung-hyeon briefly took out the arrow of the holy water of dawn and scattered the holy power around him.
[Supernova]
Faaaaaaa!
They exploded with a dazzling light.
“If you look closely, [Supernova] is also a skill that has nothing to do with the healer job.”
“Oh, yes. But how did you get that?”
“This guy was a skill I got as a reward from the [Sacred Vessel].”
And Kim Se-hyung also had the [Sacred Bowl], and of course he would have been rewarded every time he filled the bowl.
“So it’s a guess, but since Kim Se-hyung also has the skill he received as a bowl reward, wouldn’t that be a rainbow reflection and a quick splash?”
“Oh…”
“If it’s something like that, it’s roughly the same.”
In other words, he is an annoying special tank who uses skills that normal tanks cannot use by using the [Sacred Vessel] cheat key.
Maybe it’s possible to self-heal the subject of the tank.
“In fact, you should think of it as a completely different job than a normal tanker.”
“I can’t be of much help because he’s completely different from the three hyungs I used to know.”
“If you are an enemy who needs Kim Ho-jung’s help, wouldn’t it be okay to defeat Kim Ho-jung alone?”
“Oh, relentless!”
“Anyway, Kim Se-hyung won’t give up like this.”
He knew who the last black star was and found out that he had a manager.
Since he even says that he will kill the manager instead of saving him, the fanatic of the manager must be crazy and jump up and down.
“I can only see the future where Sehyung is going to rescue the manager from Mr. Kang…”
“100%.”
Even if you don’t have it, you have a lot of things to do, such as going around the polluted area, Baek Seon-ho, mental care, Shin Yu-jun, and robbing your pockets, but now you have to worry about thieves trying to steal your manager.
“Sehyung… he was such a nice and nice kid, but how did he end up like this?”
“Originally, the cleaner it is, the easier it is to get dirty. So are the beliefs.”
Seunghyun Kang said this and stuffed his hands into his pockets.
“It would be better to leave Hind Village as soon as possible. Kim Se-hyung will come after me anyway.”
“Well, Sehyung thinks Mr. Kang has a manager.”
“Then let’s go join the others.”
“okay!”
“Since it’s annoying, Mr. Kim Ho-jung will explain.”
–
“Huh…. Is it finally here? It’s been a long wait.”
similar perspective.
While his colleagues were going through this and that, Alec.
“thank you for this food.”
“This black noodle is delicious. What’s your name?”
“Jajangmyeon.”
“Yellow pickles are also delicious.”
“That’s pickled radish.”
I was having a leisurely meal with a friend at a restaurant in the back alley of Hind Village.
“By the way, the fact that you came means Kang Seung-hyun came too…?”
“yes. Because Healer and I are Soul Neighbors.”
“What is it?”
“It’s not close like a soulmate, but it’s a creed that means a close… soul neighbor rather than a next-door neighbor.”
“I don’t understand even after listening to the explanation? Is that a word you coined?”
This man is Picaros the Magician.
He is Alec’s friend and the only relic appraiser in Hind Village who was beaten up by Kang Seung-hyeon for cheating.
“I’ll have to take care of myself for a while… He’s really scary.”
“Oh, I’m leaving again in a few days. I guess we’re a bit busy.”
“How long have you been here… Where are you going this time?”
“A tour of the polluted area. The first is the western Tehes!”
“You talk about the contaminated area as if it were a tourist destination.”
Picaros looked at him with a puzzled face, but he couldn’t say anything more because it was true that Alec was actually a talented person who could wander around the contaminated area like a tourist destination.
“Well, if you weren’t a blood mage, you’re the kind of person who would have lived there.”
“Aisley… She was afraid of my heaven-sent talent. That’s why I sealed my power in a narrow vessel called a blood mage.”
“Who is Aisley?”
“The creator god and the beginning god who announced the beginning of this world.”
‘It’s a start again.’
Pikaros, as usual, thought it was Alec’s nonsense and just let it go.
“Oh, I see. I thought of you because of Tehes.”
Crunchy.
Then, suddenly, Picaros, who was munching on pickled radish, opened his mouth with a face that reminded him of something.
“There are some artifacts coming in from there that I care about.”
“Are you concerned?”
“Other things are the same as normal artifacts, so how can I say that I can feel the dark energy?”
The energy could not be detected unless a skilled relic appraiser seemed to notice that the person who brought them did not notice.
Thanks to that, no one other than Picaros has noticed so far.
“Looking at the relics? Please be kind to me.”
“I’m scared of you spitting out such a strange sound without thinking about it for a second.”
“Fear is an emotion that comes from the unknown.”
Alec smirked and continued talking with a light gesture.
“Well, if there’s no problem except for the gloomy, then there’s no need to worry about it, right?”
“I would have thought so if all the guests had brought it. But if you look carefully, the same guys always bring it.”
“Isn’t that kind of interesting? tell me in detail.”
“I can’t help but remember the faces of the adventurers in Tehes while doing this.”
Since the adventurers who roam the contaminated area are a kind of VIP customers, relic appraisers who operate in the vicinity basically have no choice but to memorize their faces.
“Naturally, I also analyze what time of day this customer often visits and what level of artifacts he mainly obtains…”
“Should I use it for fraud?”
“of course.”
It’s something a normal mind wouldn’t dare to overcharge a talented person who travels in a polluted area, but a man who manages to do it.
That is Picaros the Magician.
“So it was obvious that only certain customers were bringing those ‘strange artifacts’.”
“Oh, do you have something in common?”
“They all belonged to the Underworld.”
“Underworld? They are named guys.”
Underworld.
Just hearing the name, you might think it’s a concept like Alec, but this isn’t a human name, it’s a guild made up of dimension movers.
As with all guilds, the lower level members are ordinary dimension movers, but the executive level members are made up of talented people who can come and go in and out of the contaminated area, so if you are a dimension mover who is interested in joining the guild, you will have heard the name at least once. Alec’s conclusion.
“Now that I know that, it hits my head! and brushed it off.”
“Pot!”
“Ah, what are these bastards doing in the polluted area? I mean.”
A situation in which a certain group monopolizes a strange artifact that cannot be sensed incongruity unless you are a really good appraiser.
No matter how you think about it, you won’t get it in an ordinary way.
“In the first place, if it was a normal artifact, there’s no way it would give off such a negative vibe.”
“Is that a fake?”
“It’s because the appraisal results aren’t abnormal to just conclude that it’s a spy. I think it is some kind of counterfeit money.”
“Isn’t that fake?”
“It’s different. Legally, the criterion for designating counterfeit money is not quality.”
No matter how well counterfeit money is made, the reason why it is treated as fake is not because of the material or manufacturing method, but because it was made by someone who does not have the right to make it.
“Even if there is no problem with performance, if you feel negative energy from an artifact, it means that something went wrong during the creation process, so it is safe to consider it as a defective product.”
“Oh, then what Mr. Alec will do is investigate the background of the Underworld? Investigating the source and identity of strange artifacts.”
“no? for what?”
“to?”
“I just said it because I remembered you talking about the contaminated area.”
“…Isn’t it usually the development of asking a detective to investigate them?”
When Alec said in a puzzled tone,
“How come that grim relic contains so many rare items that even half swapping would be worth it.”
Picaros spoke with an impudent face.
Because he was a professional relic appraiser.
“I think Healer hyung said he’ll kill you if you scam him one more time, but did you get another life?”
“Before, Kang Seung-hyun said, ‘It doesn’t matter if you cheat against a cheater.’”
“It’s an idea that Healer-hyung would do.”
Of course, Alec thinks Kang Seung-hyun is a scammer even if the other person isn’t a scammer, but he didn’t say it out loud.
“Anyway, after all, they’re the ones who sell me fake relics that look like the real thing, so it’s okay for me to turn my back on them.”
“Ha ha you trash man! You don’t even have proof that it’s fake?”
“So what are you going to do?”
“no? why me? If you’re fake, you’re fake!”
“It should be like this too. You trash cousin!”
There is a reason why these two are friends.
This is because it is a milky species.
–
“I ate well!”
“Now, where shall we go to the store this time?”
“You said you were going to the polluted area? Can I not prepare anything?”
“Heh… I’m a human who entrusts himself to fate.”
“You say so plausibly that you’re just an idiot without a solution.”
After leaving the restaurant, the two started walking around the alley.
“Oh, what time is it now?”
“You can look at the clock tower.”
“Do you want to see me too? But no.”
“huh? Who stole it?”
Alec, who glanced at the plaza, took out his mana watch and checked the time as if he couldn’t help it.
“It’s 8:15 now~”
“Eh. already? I have to go back to the store because I have a request from a customer.”
“okay? It’s a pity then, but I’ll have to go get a drink by myself.”
“Prepare the Contaminated Zone.”
“Preparation of the mind is also preparation.”
Twenty seconds after Alec said this and walked away from Picaros.
“Hey hey! Alec! hey!!!! Help! help me!”
“huh?”
For some reason, I heard a voice desperately calling for help from Picaros.
