Taming Master

Miner's Laborer (3)

* * *

Before entering the Contaminated Mine.

Ian stopped by the magic shop in Spirit Town and sold the essences of all the attributes he had.

Of course, the essences obtained through the dungeon were not small, but they were insufficient to withstand three hours alone.

"Ugh, it's hard to write with intermediate essences. What should I do? ’

Lesser Essence 6 seconds.

Lesser Essence 42 seconds.

If so, the intermediate integer will buy you 294 seconds.

Earn about 5 minutes per person.

‘I've gained about seven intermediate essences so far……. I could make an extra 35 minutes with this. ’

Ian checked the time limit once.

It took about 30 minutes to clear out the lower and lower levels, so it's not enough to fill three hours.

Less than three hours, more than an hour.

Then, was this quest supposed to be a failure?

Fortunately, 77-- too much to ask.) was not a friend who made it impossible to do a request.

“Room 77!"

“Huh?"

“I'm going to use up all the essences of the attributes now, what should I do? ”

Ian asked 77, who was sorry to write up to intermediate essences, and 77 listened to him for a moment.

There seems to be a way.

And after a while, 77 entered the Huddak Control Room instead of answering.

What are you doing? ’

And a few seconds later,

Out back, 77 gave something to Ian.

- Tyring!

- You received the item 'Spirit's Pickaxe’ from ‘P-77’.

“ ……? ”

As soon as the message came to mind, 77 continued.

“Ian, you see that little cave in there? ”

“Huh?"

“Get in there and mine. ”

“Mining?”

“Yes. Once inside, we can mine the essence of the attribute." ”

And as Ian turned his back on 77, he stepped into the mine.

With a grumpy look on his face.

You're making me do it, aren't you? ’

But that was also a moment.

- Tyring!

- You have entered District A-12 of the Spirit Mine.

- You are the first to enter the Spirit Mine.

-From now on, mining success rates are increased by 15 percent for 12 hours.

- Increases your chances of getting higher grade minerals for 12 hours from now.

- 100,000 Reputation.

- An instant map.

- This area is only available during the quest 'Please (Hidden) in P-77’.

Ian's jaws are caught in his ears, checking out the reward for his first discovery and buff.

The slight complaint I had with issue 77 for a moment was that Ian had just been erased from my mind.

* * *

“Ugh, Chesk. So you didn't find any way? ”

“I know. This is the end of the content I can do right now. ”

“No, what's the big deal in the middle, and that's the end of the content? ”

After Ian sweeps through the content, Ralph's group arrives late in Spirit Town, overwhelmed with devastation.

The Abyssal Valley quest, which had only been discovered with several trials, had already been snatched away, and it was impossible to proceed to the next map in the sanctuary beyond the valley at the end of Pearl Pass.

But if there was a quest to get, it wasn't like that.

‘I didn't come here to give up the Commandment Expedition for this. ’

Ralph changed it.

Of course, even if you go to the commandment system, there is not much great content.

You're stuck on the Acheron River anyway, so we're not making any progress.

However, if you had gone to the command system, you would have been able to increase your transcendence level much more with the support of the guild.

No party can hunt as efficiently as a guild party.

‘You must have taken at least level 6 transcendent……. ’

Ralph sighs deeply, in a bad mood.

It was an unfortunate situation for another party member, whom he had lured into the spirit system.

Ralph opens his mouth again to Chesk, with his head messed up.

“Chesk, by the way. ”

“Huh?"

“Inisko, why isn't he coming? ”

“Yeah. It's going to take some time. Maybe he found something? ”

In Chesk's words, Ralph's expression is slightly crumpled.

“Hmm……. You're not doing this alone because you found something, are you? ”

“Oh, no way... ”

Ralph and Chesk face each other with an anxious look.

However, after a while, the anxious expression of the two people was quickly resolved.

It was because the Inysco they were looking for appeared from afar.

Ralph swallows a dry saliva once.

Inisco was the last person to return to the party looking for quests.

If you come back with no income, you really will come back empty-handed.

As Inisco approaches, Ralph opens his mouth in a tense voice.

“Inisco, did you find anything? ”

And as Ralph's words fall, everyone's gaze gathers toward Inisko's mouth.

Inisco's jaw then dries up.

“What, no one has any income but me? ”

“ ……! ”

Ralph and Chesk and the other party members' eyes widened.

According to Inysco, I knew he'd found something.

“Speak quickly, Inisco, without hesitation. Did you find something? Isn't that right?"

Inisko nods and replies.

“Brothers, we were so stupid. ”

“ ……? ”

“What's that supposed to mean? ”

“The quest always started in the village. ”

“ ……? ”

With endless words from Inysco, Ralph looks suspicious.

It was because I spoke to all the NPCs in Spirit Town.

“Oh, that's frustrating. Talk to me. ”

With Chesk's haste, Inisco laughs and says again.

“You all remember this place called the 'Spirits Seal' in this town? ”

Inisko says some nod, while others nod immediately.

“I know. You mean that shabby building at the entrance to the village? ”

“That's right."

Inisco looks around the party once again.

“Well, has anyone ever been inside? ”

“ ……? ”

Most of the parties shake their heads or make a curious face, and only the Chesk shakes his head and opens his mouth.

“I can't go in there.... Did you go in there? ”

“Why can't I go in? Why can't I go in? ”

“Hmm?"

“I can get in for 500 Asters. ”

According to Inysco, Ralph is in trouble this time.

“Astor? What is that? ”

“I think it's the currency that's being used in this spirit system. ”

“How did you get it? ”

“How can I save you? ”

Inisco pauses, pulling out a small essence from his chest.

And then again, I said,

“Everyone must be stockpiling this in their inventory. I heard you could go to the magic shop and sell this to save Astor. ”

“Oh!”

In fact, the idea of selling something to the store to get money was something that anyone could easily think of.

The only reason Enisco tried this at the party was because he was the only 'summoner’ of the party.

The shops in Spirit Town only sold items related to animosity, so users of other classes didn't intend to buy anything here.

Inisco, on the other hand, tried to buy a skill book related to spirits, just like Ian, and in the process he naturally thought of a way to acquire the Astor.

Anyway, in expectation of the party members, Inisco's words resumed.

“Anyway, I went in for 500 Asters. And I cleared the first stage, and I came right back here. ”

“The first stage? ”

“Yes. I cleared the first stage, and I got this. ”

Inisko proudly shared item information in the party window.

-Highest Tune-Up Stone (Superior): General Goods Item

The party member who checked the item's info window was very surprised.

“ ……! ”

I didn't know the exact performance because I had never tried it, but it was completely new to me.

Then Inisco opens his mouth with pride towards the surprise party members.

“This is a structure that will allow you to move on to the next stage until you pay 500 Aster and hang up once you fail or give up. ”

“Oh, that's funny. ”

“This body came out after only one stage to share content with its brothers. ”

Chesk scrambles Inisko's head and gives her a joyful bounce.

“Khh, I knew it! He's our only brother! ”

“Hehe, right? ”

But worn Ralph did not fall for Inisco's color.

“You tell me the truth. ”

“What?”

“You just woke up from the first stage, right? ”

“Huh?”

“Didn't you come back from the second stage because you had a hard time getting up? ”

“ ……! ”

“You needed a party member. ”

“It's not like that! ”

Ralph's razor-sharp insights allow him to ride on Inysco's brow, and his cold sweat tingles.

* * *

Boom, boom, boom!

A cheerful hiss that echoes without rest inside a dark mine.

- You have successfully mined the ore!

-High mining techniques keep mineral grade.

- Obtain ‘Essence of Lesser Flame’ item.

Every time I check the system message that comes to my mind, Ian's mouth is bursting with laughter.

A skill with a different level of dexterity and mining than when you first started mining in the Magic Mine.

This was the area where Ian overcame his lack of talent.

"Khh, yes! I'm gonna pull this vein out before I get out of here. ’

Ian is greedy.

At least in the game, he's greedier than anyone else.

Because of this Nogada damn quest, I was going to pull out as many mulberries as I could.

‘The average time it takes to mine the lowest essence is about 10 seconds……. 20 seconds minor, 40 seconds intermediate.... ’

While mining for minerals, Ian's head turns quickly.

‘If you dig like crazy without stopping, you will definitely be able to collect essences while maintaining the time limit! ’

Use a lowest essence to increase the quest's time limit by 6 seconds.

On the other hand, mining takes about 10 seconds, so you lose 4 seconds.

However, it is different from lower essence.

For Lesser Essences, mining takes approximately 14 to 15 seconds, which increases the time limit by 42 seconds.

And sometimes it takes less than a minute for the intermediate essence to be mined, which in other words increases the time by almost 5 minutes.

And even though they've never succeeded in mining yet and don't even know if they can mine, it's truly amazing if they mine more essences than just superior ones.

‘We must somehow endure the time limit with only the lowest and lowest essences. At least until the first discovery buff is over, we're not leaving here. ’

Ian's eyes sparkle in the dark as he calculates in his head.

And as soon as he lowers the asbestos of the mine with his pickaxe....

Boo-hoo-hoo!

- You have successfully mined the ore!

- Due to high mining techniques, mineral grades are maintained.

- Obtain the 'Essence of Advanced Wind’ item.

-First time you've mined Essence of Advanced Attributes!

- Extraordinary EXP +300.

- 50,000 Reputation!

Ian smiles greedily as he looks at the system messages.
