Chapter 313: Use of Undigested Mineral Mass Revealed (2)

The NPC opened his mouth.

[If you bring me the materials, I will process them into items.]

“What can you make with the stone squirrels’ undigested mineral masses?”

[If you bring me the stone squirrels’ undigested mineral masses, I will process them into coins.]

It was a short video, but it was enough.

So I opened my mouth first.

“Where is that NPC located?”

I thought this was the most important thing.

Hearing Director Sok’s reply, I now knew clearly why it was so difficult for them to find any clue despite their hard efforts.

“Well, he is located inside the Mitsuya Guild’s headquarters.”

“…”

“…”

“…”

What if I requested the Mitsuya Guild of Japan to allow me to meet with that NPC in order to make coins from the stone squirrels’ undigested mineral masses that I had been collecting?

Of course, they wouldn’t allow it.

I could probably take away the NPC by force.

However, if that happened, it would inevitably escalate into a full war between the Myongjin Guild and Japan, and not simply one between the Myongjin Guild and the Mitsuya Guild for the Mitsuya guild controls all the guilds in Japan as a whole.

“How many mineral masses per month do we get from the stone squirrel habitat?” my father asked suddenly.

Director Sok replied immediately, “Well, it’s safe to say we get an average of 10,000 mineral masses per month. It’s the best calculation based on the highest production efficiency after Japan’s Mitsuya Guild attacked us, so it is realistically impossible for us to get more even if we dispatch more people.”

“10,000 per month…”

Looking at the size of the entire Myongjin Guild, 10,000 coins were far from enough.

However, constantly obtaining 10,000 coins per month on a regular basis was definitely a huge bonus for Myongjin. And that’s why Japan’s Mitsuya Guild attacked us as soon as the Korean and Japanese regions merged together.

My father added, “Great. It’s good to know we have found out about why the Mitsuya Guild wanted the mineral masses so desperately. So, continue collecting the mineral masses like before because we will be able to use them someday.”

“Sure!”

“Understood!”

We wrapped up the meeting.

On that day, however, I didn’t know I would be able to use the stone squirrels’ undigested mineral masses faster than expected.

One week later at the level 1500 hunting ground, the Land of Titan.

I kept hunting in this place by repeatedly coming here every day. And I started feeling that this place was too easy for me now. Of course, when I first arrived at this hunting ground, I did not find hunting very difficult because my level was already high enough back then to hunt comfortably.

But now I’ve become so strong thanks to Ice Emperor’s guardian sword increasing in enhancement as well as the new functional stat rings among other rewards So I continued hunting, wishing I could find a higher level hunting ground.

At that moment, a message rang, which could be heard by everybody.

[Good morning. This is ‘Revival Legend’.

-Some of the walls currently blocking each Region will be removed.

: Regions to be unlocked: Regions 11 and 14.

: Regions 11 and 14 will allow for free movement.]

Regions 47, 52, and 53, which meant Mongolia, Korea and Japan respectively, were merged and changed to Region 11, while Region 14was the merged one of China, India, and Vietnam.

According to the message, Korea, Mongolia, Japan, China, India, and Vietnam were now one region.

“Man, it’s almost like a hell’s gate…”

It was none other than China and India who were waging a fierce war of nerves, even mentioning nuclear weapons, not only in ‘Revival Legend’, but also in reality.

Examining their situation a little more closely, it boiled down to an ugly fight to take more of the territory of Vietnam which was relatively weak.

At that time, I got involved in their fight by taking sides with India.

Although China and India picked a fight, India was inferior to China in terms of power, and I had no choice but to support India because I wanted them to continue fighting. Moreover, since India was constantly being pushed back by China, they first came to me and asked for help, talking about the benefits of the Constellation Hunter’s badge.

China and India were still on bad terms over Vietnam. This time Korea, Japan, and Mongolia were merged with India and China, so it was inevitable to see more commotions in the future.

“Well, I don’t think they will act recklessly as they did in Vietnam.”

No matter how arrogant China was, they could not touch Myongjin and me.

Moreover, the Myongjin Guild was now strong enough to beat Japan’s Mitsuya Guild that controlled Japan.

Now, the question was whether China would attack Mongolia.

But Mongolia’s two titan guilds, the Tugal and Altan Guilds, joined hands with the Myongjin & Mirae Alliance and Japan’s Mitsuya Guild respectively, so it would be risky for China to take over Mongolia recklessly.

“Well, let us wait and see.”

After thinking about it for a moment, I concentrated on hunting monsters again because I had nothing to lose if I was strong.

***

At the level 1500 hunting ground Land of Titan.

Puck! Puck! Bang! Bang!

Of course, I was hunting as usual, but I found myself constantly distracted by something.

It was none other than the Ice Emperor’s guardian sword.

[God of Enhancement.

-Remaining cooldown: 3 hours 12 minutes and 35 seconds.]

The Ice Emperor’s guardian sword took me 125 days to enhance it to +6 from +5.

Of course, the +6 Enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword paid off nicely.

So although I felt sorry that it was such a long cooldown, I did not regret it at all.

Nonetheless, I had no choice but to keep looking at the remaining cooldown since there was only about three hours left now after it marked 24 hours yesterday. I focused on it so much that I could not pay attention to anything else.

But it was ok for me to be distracted because this hunting ground was no longer super valuable to me even though it was a level 1500 hunting ground.

At that moment, a message rang, which was impressive enough to make me turn my glance from God of Enhancement to something else.

[Hello, this is ‘Revival Legend’.

-Many walls blocking off each region have been stably unblocked, so there are only a total of 40 separate regions left now. To commemorate this, an event to select the strongest in each region will be held soon.

– How to proceed.

: For the next three days, you can apply to participate in the ‘Strongest Regional Player Selection Competition’ through the signs installed in the central plaza of each city or castle.

: After the three day application period finishes, applicants will be randomly matched up in a series of one-on-one matches starting the next day.

(Participants will be randomly drawn up into brackets of 2048 and 1024 players depending on the total number of participants.)

: Those who advance to the top sixteen of each region will be given rewards, with higher rewards given according to their final ranking.

In addition, the final winners of the 40 regions will gather separately to select the true strong man.

: However, only those with level 1000 or higher can participate in this event.

Due to the nature of the event, there is no penalty for losing a match.]
