God’s Natural Enemy Returns Episode 172

110. Personal Quest Reward (2)

‘Secret warehouse.’

When Lee Si-eun destroyed the change station.

The place that was revealed was, strictly speaking, a ‘communal warehouse’.

The stationmasters’ warehouse, where 30 joining stations have disappeared, now has 29.

It was where the stationmasters kept their most prized items.

There was a reason why the stationmasters, who were killing each other and waging a cold war, gathered their items in one place.

This secret warehouse is the only warehouse that has been touched by the ‘hand of the dwarves’.

You could never enter without the stationmaster’s permission.

What’s more, it was managed by a warehouse manager who was ‘unanimously’ elected by 30 people.

It was a much safer place than the warehouse at each station.

“Ugh… … .”

But didn’t they say that even if the sky falls, there is a hole to escape from?

From Cosio’s perspective, there was one last move left.

“That’s going to be a bit difficult. The personal quest reward is ‘Choose and obtain 2 items from the items in the Change Station.’ It’s not something you obtain from the secret storage… … .”

“Why are you doing this? Between players.”

“… … ?”

“The secret warehouse is connected to all stations, so it is considered ‘included’.”

‘You even know this fact?’

Cosio, who decided that there was nowhere else to retreat, could do nothing but sigh.

“Okay. Let’s go.”

***

“So this is the private train I’ve only heard of.”

Looking at a train with only one compartment.

Sihyeon smiled as if she found it interesting.

“Stop talking and come quickly!”

Thanks to the use of small but fast private trains.

Sihyeon and Kosio were able to arrive at a basement in less than 30 minutes.

‘Train Maze’ on the basement level.

‘Illusion Maze’ on the 2nd basement floor.

It was a secret warehouse in the middle area.

Kookookookook… … .

When the private train stopped and Sihyeon got off, what appeared before his eyes was this.

It was a personal storage facility that stretched out like a building.

Each item was managed in an optimal environment.

It looked like a tall building, with storage bins of different sizes all stored there.

‘Before the regression, I only saw the destroyed appearance.’

“… … Stationmaster Kosio?”

In front of Sihyeon, who was looking around like that, and Kosio, who had a shit-eating expression.

A stone man approached me and pretended to know me.

“It’s been a while.”

“It’s been a while.”

His name is ‘Bentori’ and he is quite tall.

He was the manager of this secret warehouse, unanimously chosen by all stationmasters.

“Stationmaster of Join Station, ‘Pasio’ has passed away.”

“I know.”

“As expected, it was the station master’s behavior.”

“It’s not like the fight between the stationmasters started yesterday or today.”

“But now that the stationmaster of the largest station is dead… … the aftermath will be significant. It could even lead to a great war between the earthlings within the Train Maze.”

“… … .”

It was a tone that seemed to be calmly telling the truth.

It contained a great deal of condemnation and reprimand.

It was a natural thing.

Unlike Cosio, who is full of ambition.

Because Bentori wanted to keep his secret warehouse here and live a stable life.

“But who is this man?”

“I am the fallen king, Lee Si-Hyeon.”

“… … The Fallen King? No way… … .”

Bentori’s expression hardened as he looked up at Sihyeon’s head.

[The king who cleared the personal quest, .]

[You can receive the 3 items you want after checking them.]

“Stationmaster Kosio. As a personal quest reward, I received this… … .”

“Did you know that this guy knew about the existence of the ‘secret warehouse’?”

“You know what this means, right?”

“… … .”

Cosio was left speechless at Bentori’s words.

The secret warehouse is a space included not only in the change station but also in all other stations.

In other words, not only Cosio’s treasures but also those of other stationmasters were gathered here.

This means that if Shihyeon wants, she can take not only Cosio’s items, but also the items of all the other stationmasters.

This was something that had not been agreed upon with the other stationmasters.

“So you ended up coming out like this?”

In fact, from Cosio’s point of view, it would have been good to take the items from other stationmasters.

Without losing anything of your own, the power of the opposing force field was reduced.

‘Well. There’s nothing I can do about it now.’

Cosio also crossed his arms and glared at Bentori.

‘Since Pasio is gone anyway and I’m going to take over the land of Join Station, war isn’t so bad.’

While the two were fighting like that.

Sihyeon went into the secret storage room without saying a word and looked through the items.

***

‘There’s more than I thought.’

Stationmaster.

As if to prove that he stands at the top of the stone people.

The items they collected were enormous.

Moreover, the items gathered here are at least S-grade.

Even if you randomly pick three, they are good enough to make most players skip over them.

-They’re both S-class items, so what’s different about them?

“The quality is different. The quality.”

To Mehen’s question, Sihyeon kindly answered.

“You know, right? Even items with the same name and grade have different details.”

-I don’t know much about that. Because I’ve always taken a macroscopic viewpoint while standing by the great sun. I wasn’t interested in such trivial things.

“It’s a boast. It’s ignorance.”

-What, what? How could you do that to me, a high-ranking god and adjutant of the great sun…?

“What about the higher-level god? He’s just a pig.”

Even while grumbling like that, Sihyeon began to give a simple explanation for Mehen.

“Look. I’m using the items of the gods. And the sun disk you’re parasitizing.”

-A parasite!

“But what if Ra made a contract with another player? Then would he give the sun disk he has to the other player?”

-… … No. Not only the great sun, but no other god would do that.

“That’s right. Unless a god is crazy or he’s really kind to his contractors, he wouldn’t give them genuine items.”

This was a fact that most players were unaware of.

The items the gods gave them were mostly A or S-grade.

It was forbidden to believe the performance of that item at face value.

Even for items of the same grade, there were many cases where the performance was as different as heaven and earth.

“For example, the ‘Double Dragon Sword (S)’ that Kim Hyun-ji has and the ‘Excalibur (S)’ that Arthur is holding are fakes. They are nothing more than imitations of items used by real gods.”

Of course, even if it was a counterfeit, it was an item that clearly contained ‘divine’ properties.

It often showed ‘overwhelming’ power that was incomparable to other items of the same level.

-Then what about your items? Aren’t they all genuine?

“That’s right. Mehen, I can tell just by looking at what you brought.”

Sihyeon raised the corners of her mouth.

The trait he already had, ‘Splendid Armory of the Gods (EX)’.

As it is an ‘EX grade’ that has the power to twist all levels, rules, and systems.

As for the items brought by the special feature of the vision, they were not replicas but ‘genuine’ items.

That is, Zeus has now lost the most useful of his thunderbolts.

Hera, Michael, Nyx, etc.

‘Michael in particular was very upset because of this.’

Of course, starting from E-rank, I had to unlock each locked special effect one by one, but it didn’t reach the level of SS-rank, which is the actual power to use.

This much was to be taken into account.

In addition, the current characteristic has been changed to ‘Transcendence Armory (EX)’.

It was possible to raise it to an EX grade that surpassed the SS grade used by the gods and awakened the ‘true nature’ contained within.

A power that even the gods who own the items usually cannot awaken.

It’s still a story of the distant future, but Sihyeon will be able to acquire the ability to do so.

‘When I see things like this, I’m grateful to Loki. He lets me regress and gives me special choices.’

As of now, it is unknown what Loki intends to achieve by splitting the gods.

One thing was certain.

Loki, and vision.

In a way, it is even the Trimurti, the three main gods of the Vedas.

First of all, they were on the same boat.

‘I don’t know when I’ll run aground, though.’

-Then it wouldn’t be a good idea to just choose SS-class, right?

To Mehen’s subsequent words.

Sihyeon nodded.

“There’s a saying that goes like this: A well-fitting C-class weapon is better than ten A-class weapons.”

-What country’s proverb is this?

“Because I just made it… … Korea?”

-It’s bland.

While walking around like that, chatting with Mehen.

Sihyeon’s eyes quickly scanned the warehouse.

[Cold Dragon’s Pure Lin (SS)]

[Thorn of Betrayal (SS)]

[Skill Book: Heaven and Earth (S)]

[Kraken Capturer (S)]

But none of the S or SS-grade items could capture Sihyeon’s heart.

‘Hmm… … It’s a bit ambiguous because there’s no item description.’

Because I didn’t know all the items that were originally here.

Thinking that there was nothing she could do, Sihyeon decided to take a little more time.

Sleep? That never happened.

This was because there were S and SS-grade items scattered throughout the area.

***

After walking around for 17 hours straight and checking every item one by one.

There were three items that caught Sihyeon’s eye.

“Okay. First of all, this guy.”

-Oh… …That’s it?

[Item, ‘Hammer of Sinful Bones (S)’ has been acquired.]

[Hammer of Sinful Bones (S)]

#A hammer made from the bones of a sinner. This object was made by exhuming the corpse after death, as the sin was not revealed during life.

Main weapon (one-handed hammer)

Effect

[All item crafting proficiency +20]

When certain conditions are met, it can be combined with other items.

The first item chosen was a hammer made of blue bone, the ‘Hammer of Sinful Bone (S).’

All players with a class related to ‘crafting’ will have their dream ‘crafting proficiency’ increased by a whopping 20.

‘That’s what Oh Young-il and Oh Young-soo said. They said that even if you raise your proficiency by 10,000, the sound of the hammering will change.’

Because the crafting proficiency of ‘all items’, not just specific weapons or accessories, has increased.

It was an item that would be good for the guys to wear.

But unfortunately, this item had a separate place to be used.

‘Okay. Next.’

[You have acquired the item, ‘Skill Book: Dragon’s Breath (SS)’.]

[Warning! There are conditions required to learn the skill ‘Dragon’s Breath (SS)’.]

[Have the skill ‘Magic Circulation (S)’.]

[Have the skill ‘Internal Absorption (S)’.]

[Magic Power 1,000 or more.]

[Possess item, ‘Dragon Heart (??)’.]

Since I didn’t have a Dragon Heart yet, I couldn’t meet the condition.

‘It’s a dragon heart… I’ll get it someday.’

The skill chosen by Sihyeon, ‘Dragon’s Breath (SS)’, increases skill power and casting speed.

Above all, it had an effect that was much stronger than Sihyeon’s skill ‘Internal Absorption (S)’.

The ‘Magic Circulation (S)’ skill could be replaced with the special effect obtained by previously catching Balrog, .

Now all I needed was the Dragon Heart.

‘Of course it will be difficult to obtain. And there is no telling when I will be able to obtain it.’

The story of a dragon emerging from a disaster is a story of the distant future.

Moreover, even when dragons die, they can destroy their dragon hearts or give them to other dragons of the same species.

It was not an easy item to obtain.

Of course, the grade and effect of each dragon heart varied depending on which dragon it came from.

‘But if you’re going to get it anyway, it’s more effective to get a good Dragon Heart.’

Sihyeon, who was mumbling like that, reached out for the last item.

-Are you really going to choose this?

‘no.’

Shh.

‘Look carefully.’

When Si-Hyeon’s hand reached for the bluish shoes.

“Just a moment… … Please wait a moment.”

Someone called out to him.

“you?”

-Oh… … Weren’t you fighting with Kosio?

Bentori.

He was a stone man guarding this place.

“I have a favor to ask.”

“ask?”

“Yes. Please do not select any more items.”

Bentori asked with a frown on his face.

From his perspective, he has to block the other person from exercising his ‘legitimate’ rights for something that is not his fault.

It was an unbearably awkward and shameful sight.

“There are so many items here, why wouldn’t I choose one?”

“… …Please tell me what you want.”

“It’s good because it’s fast.”

Sihyeon raised the corners of her mouth.

“It’s about having a good sense of humor.”
