Chapter 142 – Crimson Balrog (4)
10.
There were many adventurers in Maple World, and they left behind adventure stories.
Of course, the adventure story that people loved the most was the story of the six heroes who sealed the black wizard.
A heroic tale that surpasses adventure!
Among them, there were a few impressive stories, namely the story of Luminous, the wizard of light and darkness.
“The Black Wizard created ten thousand golems and sent them to stop the six heroes.”
It was a story that seemed far-fetched just to hear.
“The sight of ten thousand giant golems lined up gave the impression that the walls were moving.”
10,000 golems!
It was a number that was more than enough to destroy Maple World.
A number that is enough to shake the earth and shake the world just by moving.
Even if they were six heroes, it would be impossible to stop it easily.
“The ten thousand golems headed to Henesys. To trample it.”
Moreover, the golem army was targeting not the six heroes, but ordinary adventurers and citizens.
He gave heroes trials they could never escape.
So everyone thought.
The heroes will engage in a fierce battle against an army of ten thousand golems.
But that expectation didn’t last long.
“At that moment, arrows of light scattered from Luminous’s hands. The ten thousand golems began to fall.”
An army of golems collapsed in front of one person.
“It took less than ten minutes for silence to arrive.”
All of a sudden.
The magic of light was that kind of magic.
A magic that lightly ignores the common sense of wizards as well as all adventurers.
Now the magic of light was unfolding in El Palm’s hands.
“Twinkle Flash.”
In fact, the magic of light itself was nothing special.
Shhh!
The moment El Palm uses magic, only arrows of light fly out.
The arrow was flying fast, but it wasn’t as fast as light.
Thunderbolt level speed.
It was definitely fast, but it wasn’t impressively fast.
There was nothing special about the way it flew.
Rather, it was of a minor level compared to other attack magic such as Fire Arrow or Cold Beam.
It was the same the moment I reached my goal.
thud!
The golem was so strong that the arrow of light simply disappeared the moment it touched the golem’s chest where its core was located.
There was no conflict or any impressive results.
But the results that followed were different.
The arrow of light disappears in front of the golem’s chest after a while.
thud!
The 5-meter tall stone golem, which had been making huge footprints on the floor and looked more majestic than anything else, suddenly stopped in its tracks, a monster that seemed unstoppable.
Kookookookook!
And then it fell to the ground like a doll with its strings cut.
Kwakwang!
It fell apart and shattered into pieces.
It was evidence that the arrow of light had pierced the golem’s rock and precisely destroyed the magic stone within it.
“oh my god!”
Everyone was amazed at the sight.
“Boss! This is really great!”
“Luminous, just like him!”
“Hey, isn’t this crazy?”
“It’s a sight worth paying to see. Oh, I’m not saying you should really pay.”
They all gave it rave reviews.
And what El Palm showed us was a spectacle even more amazing than their rave reviews.
“The magic of light! This is truly amazing! When I heard the story of Luminous’s heroics, I thought it was an exaggeration, but it wasn’t an exaggeration at all!”
That would be the case, because what El Palm showed was not simply the magic of light.
It was possible because El Palm used light magic properly, and it was an extremely difficult task.
In a situation where it was not easy to maintain the Arrow of Light, El Palm blasted it and pierced the Golem’s body, causing the Arrow of Light to explode at the exact location of the magic stone, damaging it.
This was amazing.
Even El Palm hasn’t been using light magic for very long.
By this point, this wasn’t just a matter of innate talent.
That was actually the case.
‘It’s almost like using telekinesis.’
El Palm, the reason he was able to use the Arrow of Light so perfectly was because it had many similarities to the telekinesis he used.
It requires a high level of concentration and control.
And in that regard, El Palm had greater abilities than any other adventurer.
The sight El Palm shows us now is thanks to that.
“He can defeat a real golem so easily. Now there’s no monster the boss can’t defeat!”
“no.”
“yes?”
“This magic has its limits.”
Of course, this light magic, Twinkle Flash, was by no means the strongest magic.
“You can’t properly damage monsters with even a little bit of high magic defense.”
First of all, light magic is magic. Its power is bound to be halved against monsters that have resistance to magic.
“The power is weaker than Fire Arrow.”
On the other hand, Twinkle Flash’s attack power itself was the weakest among the magic that El Palm possessed.
“It works because it’s a stone golem, but you’ll probably have to use more than two shots against Hector.”
Hector, that means you have to shoot in rapid succession against monsters of that size.
“It’s meaningless against boss monsters.”
Of course, it would be better to give up on the expectation that Twinkle Flash would properly deal damage to boss monsters that were on a different level from regular monsters in every way.
Of course, it was still a good skill.
“Where is that? I can catch golems too!”
The fact that you can catch a golem is an amazing skill in itself.
It’s not that it lacks power, it’s that it doesn’t have power.
‘That’s a great skill.’
In fact, El Palm also rated Twinkle Flash’s value higher than any other skill he currently possessed.
‘Can change tactics.’
Enough to change the tactics El Palm has built up.
That was a huge deal.
El Palm’s tactics weren’t just a few fighting styles that adventurers had.
The Last Adventurer, living up to his name, El Palm has experienced every tactic an adventurer can experience.
To surpass that is a huge feat!
‘There is only one monster I can’t catch at the level I’m drawing right now.’
That’s why El Palm was confident.
‘Zakum.’
Now, there is only one being that can kill you in the green-grade Mystic Gate.
In other words, El Palm no longer had to worry about death in this Mystic Gate.
It wasn’t just El Palmar that was like that.
“Now all that remains is to find the necklace.”
After speaking, Divo looked around and let out a deep sigh.
“Why the jungle of all places?”
In this vast jungle, you have to find the necklace in a place where it is difficult to find even a single ring that has fallen at your feet.
Even El Palm Party didn’t know exactly what necklace to look for.
That means you have to find all the necklaces.
That was the only silver lining.
“I think I would have been even crazier if this guy hadn’t been there.”
Qyuu!
That there is a snail pet called Mano.
Of course, that’s fortunate, it’s still going to be a very difficult task.
El Palm knew it too.
Qyuu!
“Huh? Boss? What are you feeding this guy?”
That’s why.
“It is Elijah’s horn.”
El Palm, who feeds Mano the horn of Elijah, which has an absurd value that allows him to cross the 5-circle wall.
“What are you feeding it?”
Of course, El Palm’s colleagues, who do not know its value, can only tilt their heads in puzzlement.
There was one exception.
“Huh!”
“Huh? What’s wrong? Ralph, why are you like that all of a sudden?”
“My chest suddenly started hurting.”
“Your chest hurts?”
“I don’t know. I felt like I lost a lot of money.”
Ralph, he just intuitively feels something.
Even that, no one knew properly, and naturally, no one stopped El Palm.
Qyuu!
Mano quickly began to devour Elijah’s horn without any interruption.
That was the moment.
Brrrr!
“Huh? What is it?”
Snail Mano began to tremble, and then began to emit an intense light from all over its body.
And then the light began to grow bigger.
At that moment, everyone tensed up at the sight, and the light disappeared and everyone could see.
Qyuu!
“… … It’s still the same?”
Mano’s appearance was no different from before.
“It looks like only the horns flew away?”
Divo, who was laughing as if he couldn’t believe the sight, could soon be seen like that.
Qyuu!
Qyuu!
“uh?”
The appearance of Mano suddenly starting to split.
11.
Adventurers say.
“If it takes ten days to adventure, that means it takes one day to catch a monster and nine days to find an item.”
Finding items is much more difficult than hunting monsters.
This is precisely why El Palm Party has grown so amazingly quickly so far.
Qyuu!
Thanks to Mano, who would automatically find items and even retrieve them for you, the El Palm Party was able to significantly reduce their adventure time.
Qyuu!
But now that mano has split.
“Oh my god, five.”
Not two, but five!
It was something no one expected, not even El Palm.
‘I knew it.’
I expected that there would be a special result since the advice was given by the phantom thief Phantom, but did I expect it to be like this?
“This is awesome!”
Of course, it wasn’t something to be refused.
“With five of them, finding items will be a breeze!”
Even just one Mano can be a huge help in finding items, but with five, there’s no need to talk!
Of course everyone thought so.
“I’ll find this right away!”
“Things will be simpler than I thought.”
This mission will be much easier and will be completed much faster.
“It’s so bland!”
Of course, Ralph thought.
“That means you can recover five times as many items! This is a godsend!”
He seemed more excited than anyone else at the thought of making a ton of money with the items.
But that thought didn’t last long.
“It looks like there isn’t one on the first floor.”
El Palm moved to the second floor without getting any significant results from the first floor, which was overflowing with golems.
What we encountered on the second floor was a group of Hectors!
Of course there was no problem.
El Palm Party slaughtered Hector’s group and then went on a search for items.
“There is no harvest.”
But there was no necklace on the second floor either.
No, it wasn’t just the necklace that was missing.
“There’s nothing worth writing about.”
There were no items worth making money with.
The third floor was no different.
Squeak!
Pepe, in that place full of vicious penguins, El Palm Party never got anywhere.
It wasn’t a metaphor.
“There are no items at all. Does that make sense?”
El Palm Party did not recover a single item.
There must be adventurers, and they must be dead, but there are no items?
It’s not uncommon for items to be broken by monsters, but this is a bit tricky.
El Palm, on the other hand, was different.
“It belongs to the Lion King.”
He knew it from the beginning.
“No one but a crazy adventurer would come in here.”
There probably aren’t many adventurers who died here.
“But one thing is certain.”
“One thing?”
“There will be relics on the fourth floor.”
However, as long as this Mystic Gate is not conquered, the relics of those who failed must be on the 4th floor.
“Yes.”
After all, the answer will be on the 4th floor.
That’s why El Palm Party went over to the 4th floor entrance without any hesitation.
“Okay, then let’s quickly hunt down the boss monster and finish it off!”
The momentum was high.
It would be strange if the momentum was broken without even having a proper battle.
“No matter what comes out, I will destroy it with my polearm!”
“Hey, Devo.”
“why?”
“Now is not the time.”
“What isn’t it?”
“Hey, look at this!”
But that confidence didn’t last long.
“What? Huh?”
Everyone, including Devo, could see what Miner had discovered.
“Isn’t this footprint Junior Balrog?”
Junior Balrog’s footprints.
Everyone’s expression hardened at that fact.
Junior Balrog, who would have thought that terrifying monster would come out of here?
Of course, there was no need to worry.
“Junior Balrog, this is going to be a struggle.”
El Palm Party, having already caught Junior Balok, had no reason to worry.
“Don’t let your guard down.”
To them El Palm said:
“Because it could be the Crimson Balrog.”
“yes?”
At those words, El Palm’s colleagues were briefly surprised, then quickly burst into laughter.
“Hey, boss! Aren’t you casting too harsh a curse? A Crimson Balrog! There’s no way something like that could come out… .”
That was the moment.
Wow! Wow!
A roar engulfed the El Palm party.
