109. Medusa’s Head
[I can’t believe it! I’ve defeated Medusa, the Gorgon Queen!]
[Level up!]
[Level up!]
… …
[You have cleared the personal quest, .]
[Item, ‘Station Pass (A)’ is promoted to S grade.]
[Station Pass (S)]
… … .
1) There is now no longer a limit to the number of duties that can be processed simultaneously.
2) All items in the station-only shop are discounted by 20%.
3) You can now access the VIP store.
‘good.’
Sihyeon nodded in satisfaction.
A situation where the station pass has been upgraded to S grade.
I still don’t know what a VIP store is.
First of all, the pass that changes from diamond to mithril was oozing with coolness.
-Wow… … Catching that Medusa. Human. You’re actually quite good, more so than I thought.
“Do you understand now?”
-Let’s go back quickly and eat something.
“I have to finish it.”
Sihyeon smirked at the urging Mehen, then gathered the power of all the items, walked over to Medusa’s corpse, and lifted up her cleanly severed head.
[You obtain the item, ‘Medusa’s Head (SS)’.]
[Medusa’s Head (SS)]
#This is the head of Medusa, who was once called a beast on par with ‘god’. Even in death, her hideous appearance remains the same.
Material Items
Effect
[Magic Power +100]
If you look into Medusa’s eyes, you will be inflicted with a powerful ‘Abnormal Status Effect: Petrification’.
It exerts powerful dominance over snakes of lower ‘rank’ than itself.
‘They are low-ranking snakes… … .’
Sihyeon raised the corners of her mouth.
Currently, Sihyeon has attained the status of king.
And all the Iron Snakes in the Train Maze were without royal titles.
The three Gorgon sisters, who were once divine and now kings, are already dead.
What this meant was that all the Iron Snakes within the Train Maze would now obey Shihyeon’s orders.
That wasn’t all.
The magical power that Medusa’s head gives is a whopping 100.
He even had the ability to petrify, something he had before his death.
The stone people, whose entire bodies were made of minerals, were not susceptible to petrification.
Humans or aliens with normal eyes could be petrified simply by coming into contact with the head of a dead Medusa.
‘Just making eye contact will petrify you.’
Throwing Medusa’s head into the chibisis.
Sihyeon smiled with satisfaction.
Medusa’s petrification ability seemed to be even better when dealing with multiple weak enemies at once.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
“Aaaaaaaaaa!”
Soon, Sihyeon looked around.
The Iron Snakes, who had seen the corpse of Medusa, their queen and ruler, were running late.
Then, looking at Sihyeon, he naturally nodded his head.
Looking at the situation, it seemed like the guys were already under the influence of Sihyeon’s dominance.
“Okay, you snakes. Just follow me for now.”
Following the dominance of the ‘Medusa’s Head (SS)’, the ‘Station Pass (S)’ is also present.
At this level, it will have a greater influence on the ‘Train Maze’ than the players, and even the average diamond-class earthen people.
***
“Emergency! It’s an emergency!”
“A large number of Iron Snakes appear ahead!”
“Defend! Defend!”
The change station was busier than ever.
Up until this point, the Iron Snakes, who had been sneaking into the subway at best, had launched a large-scale invasion.
‘Damn, what the… … .’
Cosio, who saw that sight, ran out in a hurry.
‘Could it be that Lee Si-Hyeon lost to Medusa?’
The last time I saw him, his power was definitely overwhelming.
The opponent is also the queen and ruler of snakes.
It was impossible to rule out the possibility that Sihyeon had lost.
‘If that happens… … things won’t be good.’
But the two Gorgon sisters are said to have died.
It was difficult to stop the Earthenmen due to their vulnerability to Iron Snakes.
Furthermore, the four human players who had fought against the Gorgon were exhausted and lying down resting.
It was unknown whether these forces alone would be able to defeat Medusa.
“Hey! It’s Iron Snake.”
“Aren’t those all quest rewards?”
“Catch it! Catch it!”
Without even realizing that Cosio’s insides were burning.
The human players gathered at the change station each had a weapon.
I haven’t been able to complete the quest because Iron Snake’s seeds have dried up recently.
If the guys had come first, they would have been grateful.
[Sub-quest, is cancelled.]
[Sub-quest, is cancelled.]
“What, what is it?”
“How can something be suddenly cancelled!”
The players grumbled in discontent at the ringing message.
Cosio was different.
Only the person who posted a sub-quest can cancel it.
That means Sihyeon is alive now.
“indeed…….”
Thud thud.
Over there.
Watching Shihyeon walk through the iron snakes.
Cosio breathed a sigh of relief.
That means one thing.
After Shihyeon killed Medusa, he ‘possessed’ her head.
***
The first thing Sihyeon did upon arriving at the change station was to hand over control of the Iron Snakes to Cosio.
The reason was simple.
If only Sihyeon would hand over Iron Snake’s ‘control’.
This was because Cosio increased the number of items you can choose from the Change Station from two to three.
Anyway, the Iron Snakes were useless once they left the Train Maze.
From Sihyeon’s perspective, it wasn’t a losing business.
‘Iron Snake, modeled after powerful beasts like Hydra and Basilisk, has already been placed inside Kibisis.’
That is, the Iron Snakes that Cosio could control were numerous and not very good.
Of course, Cosio had no idea about this fact.
As Sihyeon headed to her lodgings, her brain was quickly spinning with thoughts about her future plans.
‘After finishing the quest here and getting the 3 items… … I can go down right away.’
***
“Sihyeon!”
“Kurururung (Is the owner here?)”
“My… my lord, are you here?”
As soon as Si-Hyeon arrived at the accommodation, the first thing she saw was Gasal happily eating the Iron Snake’s corpse.
No matter how much he ate, he never felt full, and could only taste the ‘taste’ of iron.
I was very blessed when it came to gastronomy.
Cheon Yuri was with Dakkon.
Dakkon, whose only task was to lure the red elves, was not seriously injured.
I was treating Cheon Yuri.
It was thanks to my knowledge of various medicinal herbs.
“What? Korean?”
Sihyeon, who noticed the language coming out of Dacon’s mouth, asked in surprise.
“Dakkon is very smart.”
“Okay, then.”
It was still a little awkward though.
Dacon was fluent in Korean.
She has lived as a spy and assassin for hundreds of years.
Actually, learning a new language isn’t that difficult.
“Are you feeling better?”
“Yes. What about Sihyeon?”
“I’m always strong.”
The two of them looked at each other like that and smiled.
“Thank you, Yuri. For doing me a favor.”
“Who asked me to do this? Of course I have to do it.”
But the two didn’t know.
While they were joking around like that, Dacon’s eyes strangely changed.
“Dacon.”
“Yes? Yes. Go ahead.”
“Why are you so surprised? Call the kids. Let’s have a company dinner.”
“A company dinner?”
“Yeah. You worked hard, so you should at least let them eat as much as they want.”
It didn’t take long for everyone to gather.
Jongcheon was exercising as usual.
Arthur and Brittany happened to be shopping nearby.
“Hahaha! Heroes of the century! Alright! Very good!”
Cosio patted Sihyeon on the back with an expression of great excitement.
“You caught that Medusa! You really… … .”
From Cosio’s perspective, he couldn’t be happier.
Thanks to Shihyeon, not only did I catch Medusa,
We were able to completely scorch the station with the lava lake and occupy it.
Thanks to this, we now have a ‘road’ that can extend to all stations.
It was not unreasonable to be so happy.
“Just tell the stone people here! I’ll provide all the food!”
“Are you free?”
“Of course it’s free!”
Cosio, who had treated us so lavishly, quickly disappeared somewhere under the pretense of being ‘busy’.
‘Well, we’ll have to move quickly to occupy the joining station.’
The quality isn’t great, but I’m still dealing with a lot of Iron Snakes.
There will be no problem in occupying the joining station and erecting the building.
-Hahahaha! This is it!
Before I knew it, Mehen had emerged from the sun disk and was swallowing it as if he was drinking some kind of dessert.
“Are you a high-level god? Why are you revealing only sweet things?”
-You can’t eat anything when you’re next to the great sun! Oh, of course, he’s so wonderful and kind… … .
“That’s nonsense.”
However, it is true that Mehendo had a hard time linking the items that Sihyeon had and leading the eyes of Kibisis.
That’s why, even though she was grumbling, Sihyeon ordered a lot of food for him.
Since it was free anyway, there was nothing to hesitate about.
“My Lady Cheon. Let me mix my sword with your coldness… … .”
“… … Later.”
“Ah. Stop it! I’m not crazy about fighting!”
“Arthur, I’m not crazy about fighting.”
No one believed Jongcheon’s words as he protested while tearing at the meat.
“Gurrung… … (He’s a tired guy…)”
Even the savage eating the Iron Snake corpse next to him shook his head.
Sihyeon, who saw that sight, also smiled and picked up a piece of bossam.
‘Before and after returning, that guy Jongcheon tells his comrades to fight all day long.’
Rather, it was because the appearance was like that of Jongcheon.
Sihyeon ate her food with a smile.
Kosio prepared a table centered around Sihyeon’s favorite meat.
Thanks for giving me the rough cooking instructions and recipe.
I was able to eat bossam, spicy chicken, ribs, crab soup, etc.
‘Of course, there are pigs, crabs, and chickens that live in another world.’
“Sister Britney… …was a singer?”
“We weren’t famous! We were just a small band… … .”
“Sing! Sing!”
“Arthur! Stay still! Gosh, who would call you a soccer player?”
So I had a drink or two.
The atmosphere has also ripened.
Sihyeon, who was close to Jongcheon from the beginning, approached him without hesitation.
Jongcheon also did not reject such a vision.
Sihyeon was the strongest player Jongcheon had ever seen.
I thought that if I sparred with him that much, I would become stronger.
Gulp gulp.
“Kiyaa… … !”
-Kiyaa… … !
Jongcheon, who was drinking alcohol at the same time as Mehen and exclaiming in admiration, approached Sihyeon secretly and asked.
It seemed like he thought this was his chance, since Cheon Yuri, Arthur, and Brittany were hanging out together.
“The Great Hero of Sihyeon.”
“The title changed to Daehyeop again?”
“… … That’s right. By the way. Didn’t you remember what you said last time?”
Sihyeon nodded at Jongcheon’s words.
“Several thousand mountains… … I’m ashamed to say that because the continent is so vast, I couldn’t go there even though the regions were unified.”
“okay?”
“Yes. If you don’t mind, could you tell me why our shamanist faction was destroyed at the start of the disaster?”
Sihyeon closed her eyes for a moment at Jongcheon’s words.
Sihyeon knew everything about Jongcheon’s past.
What path he has walked.
What happened to the nonpartisan group?
Everything, including what choices he will make in the future.
“The reason I told you to go to the Demonic Cult was because the Demonic Cult joined hands with the Shamanist faction.”
“What is that?”
Clang.
I was so surprised.
Jongcheon got up from his seat.
As a result, the desk fell backwards and the dishes fell to the floor, shattering into pieces.
“What nonsense is that!”
“Ha… … That’s why I didn’t want to tell you the truth.”
“No matter how much of a hypocrite you are, I won’t stay still if you lie.”
The atmosphere suddenly became cold.
The other party members looked at the two.
Cheon Yuri’s already large eyes opened even wider.
Britney used her magic to move the broken dishes away.
Arthur just looked at Jongcheon with an expression that said, ‘Are you trying to fight again?’
“Follow me.”
Jongcheon followed us to the highest point of the change station, the Sky Lounge.
He glared at Sihyeon as if he still couldn’t believe it.
“First, let me ask you one thing. How does Shihyeon Sohyeop know that fact?”
After using my internal energy to expel all the alcohol from my body.
Jongcheon asked in a questioning tone.
“Yeah.”
Sihyeon looked at Jongcheon and answered.
“Because there is a god I know in the martial arts world.”
