Episode 114
114. Heimer’s Reward
It was a buff-type skill with a simple explanation, but its power was not simple.
‘Because it is a skill that allows you to use Moonlight Island, which can be used every 10 minutes, in 1 second.’
Although it only lasts for 10 seconds, it was the Red Moon skill that allowed Moonlight Island to be used continuously.
‘1 second to collect Moonlight Island’s energy, and 1 second cooldown. In other words, you can use Moonlight Island every 2 seconds.’
Skills that used to be used once every 10 minutes can now be used five times every 10 seconds.
I felt like I had one more special move.
‘Now, if you receive experience rewards and separate rewards from the dwarves in return for completing the escort… … .’
There is nothing more to gain from the Dwarf upper level.
“Okay, now that we’ve caught the monster, let’s start hunting down traitors again!”
Since then, a search for traitors has been carried out and several have been killed.
However, some of the traitors may have been assassins, and each time they were searched for, they escaped through invisibility.
[Current personnel status]
└Participants: 190 people
└Traitors: 5
“Ha, there are only 10 minutes left and there are still 5 traitors left, right?”
“Is there anyone who hasn’t been attacked?”
“Well, I think I stabbed them all… … .”
“Even if we have them attack each other to find traitors, no one will get caught, won.”
While 29 out of 30 monster waves were blocked, several search operations were carried out.
Still, the traitors were not caught.
I was able to avoid it easily by avoiding the spot every time there was a search operation or by using the invisibility skill since I was an assassin.
‘200 people is not a very small number of people, so it won’t be difficult to find them.’
Moreover, because of the monster attacks that continued every 10 minutes, there was no time to find the traitors.
Of course, there is also a way to conduct a thorough survey whenever you have time.
‘For that to happen, one person needs to carry the gun, but there’s no one who does that.’
I’m so busy with the orcs’ raids, where do I have the time and stamina to do that?
However, I can’t remember every single person because I can’t find nicknames because I don’t have time to research them.
As a result, players had more than their share of concerns.
“Hmm, are you sure you really stabbed everything?”
“That’s right. “I’ve tried it more than ten times now.”
“But why are there five traitors left?”
“Why are you asking me that?”
“Then who should I ask? huh?”
“This bastard suddenly stops talking?”
“what? This bastard? “This bastard.”
Perhaps because they were exhausted from catching orcs, they were all sharp.
“stop! “Everyone stop fighting!”
In the overheated atmosphere, someone intervened.
“It’s not going to be resolved by fighting like this.”
“Then do you have any good advice?”
“First, we should talk to each other to see if there is anyone who hasn’t been stabbed.”
“You said you stabbed them all?”
“Then what about the black scythe? “Have you tried the black scythe as well?”
“Black scythe?”
“Stab with a black scythe?”
“Is that possible without going crazy?”
“Then has anyone stabbed you?”
“If it were me, I wouldn’t be able to do it. “Giggle.”
“What if the Black Scythe is a traitor? “Will my head be blown off?”
“I see.”
“You mean there isn’t one? no one?”
The muttering sound also reached Ryumin’s ears.
People’s attention was focused on him.
‘They seem to be suspicious of me.’
At this point, a guy carrying a gun will appear.
just now.
“If you don’t have the confidence to stab me, can I stab you?”
“Poke it.”
Ryumin responded immediately, as if taking bait.
“If you’re confident, stab it.”
“… … .”
The player flinched at the sudden momentum, but then burst into laughter.
“Looking at you threatening me, I guess you are a traitor. haha.”
“When did I threaten you?”
“Ji, didn’t you look at me like I was going to kill you if I stabbed you right now?”
“Then should I at least smile at the person who doubted me? “Since I’m human, I feel bad when I’m suspected.”
Ryumin put on an unpleasant expression and spoke again.
“If you want to stab me, stab me.”
People like that are unlikely to be able to eat when the meal is prepared.
Ryumin understood that and deliberately went out strong.
Sure enough, the guy who was shouting confidently started to back away like a puppy being scolded by its owner.
Among these players, there will be no one strong enough to stab Ryumin.
‘But that doesn’t mean the doubts have completely disappeared.’
As Ryumin expected, people murmured.
“Seeing that reaction, isn’t Black Scythe really a traitor?”
“Probably not.”
“Are you sure no one has ever stabbed you?”
Although he said it inaudibly, Ryumin could hear it.
However, it seemed that Ryu Min was not the only one who heard the muttering.
“There is no need to doubt Black Scythe! “Because I stabbed him.”
There was someone defending Ryu Min.
It was none other than Minjoo-ri.
The players who were benefiting from the buff muttered ‘uh-uh’ at her claim.
“Did you really say Buffer stabbed you?”
“yes. Really. “I stabbed her and she bounced back with a ting sound.”
“Hmm, if Buffer said that… … .”
It is more effective if someone else defends you than if you say with your own mouth that you are not a thief.
As if to prove that fact, people turned around in agreement.
Ryumin, who read his thoughts, couldn’t help but be surprised.
‘Those who were doubting me a little while ago had their doubts completely erased with just one word from Minjoo-ri.’
It seems like I have a bad conscience to doubt the buffer after the black scythe.
It was only natural that we had received free buffs so far.
‘Isn’t this secretly hurting my pride? ‘You’re better at controlling people than me.’
Is it more effective to attract people through good influence than to force them into submission?
Min Joo-ri smiled and whispered in a quiet voice, not knowing that she had confused other people’s minds.
“Black Scythe. Did I do well? Don’t worry. “I will protect your secret about being a traitor.”
“What a traitor. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“Hey, you don’t have to act flirtatious with me.”
Minjoo-ri, who smiled brightly, hummed and walked away.
I was afraid that if I was seen talking to the black scythe, I would get suspicious, so I stayed away.
‘I’m so excited, I’m so excited. ‘Did you really want to help me like that?’
Min Joo-ri, who always received help from the black scythe, couldn’t control her joy when it helped her like this.
However, Seo A-rin was watching the scene not far away.
With a face of regret for not being able to defend himself.
Ryu Min had no choice but to touch his forehead.
‘Why on earth are my surroundings full of people who want to help?’
Actually, Ryumin doesn’t need much help.
At that time, I heard people shouting.
“It’s a monster! monster!”
“You showed up again with 10 minutes left!”
Ryumin knew.
That this was the last attack.
‘Since it’s the last time, shall we try to sweep it all up?’
Duwoong-
A veil of darkness covered the whole place.
Using Night of Death, the orcs were slaughtered with a 50% increased attack speed.
And finally, of course.
Kiiiiing-
‘Moonlight Island.’
Flash-
A flash of light swept away fifteen orcs in a straight line at once.
[Your level has risen!]
The level has already risen to 62.
Even though experience rewards had not yet arrived, the growth rate was quite satisfactory.
After killing all the orcs like that.
[Arrival time to destination: 00:00:00]
As soon as the time reached 0, the dwarf leader stopped the carriage.
“Warriors of this world, thank you. I think it would be good to end the escort here. “I have passed the dangerous section.”
Hymer raised his short arm and pointed ahead.
“Our destination is there. We’ll go on our own from here, so you can go back. Thanks to you, we were able to transport the goods safely. “Thank you again.”
Haimer, who had been saying thank you several times, suddenly got off the carriage and walked somewhere.
The place I followed my gaze was none other than Ryu Min, who had been transformed into a roast yak.
Haimer was holding Ryumin’s hand and expressing personal gratitude.
“Warrior of this world, no. You who go ahead. “Thank you so much for saving my life.”
“It was nothing.”
Although he pretended to be cool on the outside, Ryu Min was looking forward to it on the inside.
May the reward you have been waiting for be given.
Sure enough, Haimer took something out of his pocket.
“It is nothing compared to the price of my life, but I would like to repay you. Please accept it.”
Rather than rejecting it, Ryu Min quickly accepted it.
[I received a ‘Rune Piece of Durability’ as a reward from Dwarf Blacksmith Hymer.]
I used it right away, wondering if I would ever ask for it back.
[Use ‘Rune Piece of Durability’.]
[The acquired runes are automatically imprinted on the player’s body!]
[Rune of Durability]
-Effect: The durability of the item being worn is restored by 1 per second.
Ryumin’s lips were torn apart at the reward he had been waiting for.
‘Good.’ Now I don’t have to ask Russell to fix my durability anymore.’
In the meantime, I used to return to reality and have my spiritual bead repaired, but there is no need to do that anymore.
Even if you are not a blacksmith, you can now restore durability on your own.
‘If I do this, I will be able to increase my stats infinitely while wearing the Bead of Eternal Immortality.’
However, in reality, there will be almost no use of beads.
You have to catch monsters because your stack goes up.
‘Some people may think that you can increase your stack by catching mealworms, but mealworms are not monsters. ‘It’s a bug.’
When you kill the target, the Rune of Massacre or Mealworm that rises only applies.
‘That doesn’t mean you can’t use it in real life, though.’
I said there would be very little use of beads, but I didn’t say there would be any.
That means monsters appear in reality too.
“Then, you who go ahead. “I look forward to seeing you again next time.”
After saying that, Heimer left with the group leading the group.
As the top disappeared to the point where it could not be seen, the same message appeared in the players’ eyes.
[The Dwarf upper body has been safely escorted to its destination.]
[The quest to escort the dwarves has been completed.]
[After a while, everyone will be given experience points as a reward for successful escort.]
[The amount of experience given is twice that of the monsters you and your party members hunt.]
“Oh, is this a true story? “Twice the experience of the mobs I’ve caught so far?”
“You give me quite a lot, right?”
“It’s a party, so we’ll all go up together, right?”
It was a shame that they couldn’t track down the traitor, but the players felt relieved because they received double experience.
As soon as the reward arrived, voices of admiration were heard from all over.
The same was true for Min-ri Min and Seo-rin.
“Wow, that’s quite a lot of experience. Black Scythe. “My level has already reached 38.”
“okay? Congratulations.”
“What level did Black Scythe rise to?”
“me?”
As Ryu Min kissed his lips, Min Ju-ri asked back.
“I’m sorry, what did you say?”
I was wondering if I had heard wrong.
“I’m level 70.”
That’s because it was at a shocking level.
