Chapter 172: Solemn Drama of the External Legendary Dungeons

"... this is what happens in the end."

Before Iaski, the Sorcerer Guild Leader, who fell to the ground, I vomited an unpleasant thought.

I tried not to kill him as much as I could, but Iaski, after the ritual, attacked me without question.

In this tower, where the transfer cannot be used, if it is sealed to the entrance and exit, there is no other way to respond.

Reducing the opponent's HP until he was dying didn't even happen and unfortunately he had to kill it.

"I wish this would have happened at a downward event along the way."

It took a lot of time since I joined the Mage Guild to reach this final event.

I crush the same thing I thought many times along the way, this time for another reason.

If you close your eyes, all you remember is a bunch of unreasonable events in the Mage's Guild.

First, when joining the Alliance.

I have to undergo something called a baptismal ritual in order to join the guild, but when the apprenticeship robe is forced to be equipped in the baptismal ritual, there is a bug that the equipment I was wearing disappears at that point, which made me cry and reset.

Now the patch seems to have gone in and changed to gear itself up beforehand, but I really want you to stop setting that kind of trap for events that don't seem dangerous no matter what you think.

Then again, he gets his assistant dismissed about under the bigoted sorcerer (most instructions bring the arr, just, so totally lucky gay. Failure bubbles the friendship I've ever given), I've been asked many times for irrational grabs (sometimes I've been asked for unimplemented items, which make it impossible to clear), I've been caught up in suspicious experiments and my talent drops permanently (and I don't have any announcements when it drops. If it weren't for the stamina where the numbers usually didn't fluctuate, I would have almost saved them without realizing it), unscrupulous to sell the magic books sold in the store at a high price (naturally they couldn't have sold, so I faked selling them and gave them only money out of my pocket money), and they made me struggle a hell of a lot.

Every time Iaski makes an unreasonable request, I wonder how many times I think I'll throw you an event.

After all that hard work, I can finally become an Alliance executive by raising it to level 150 to be liked by even more level supremacist Iaskies, where I can finally get a quest that leads to the final quest.

The Sorcerer's Guild's last guild event, The Solemn Drama of the Dungeons, is a chain event.

There are three prerequisite quests required to perform the forbidden ritual that is its ultimate purpose.

First, the Iaskies. A quest to destroy the homes of the sorcerers known as dissidents, who resist the radicals.

I didn't know how this was going into a chain of events leading to rituals, but I can't help but think of something that's a prerequisite quest.

Basically, I can't break a building in the game, so I use a nagging giant named Demon Golem, but this sucked.

Zero Magic Defense to the Magic Moving Habits, which are destroyed as soon as they are attacked by the opponent's Magic Concentration.

Moreover, leaving the Golem for more than a certain amount of time would result in a quest failure, so he began to disable his enemies toward the opposition's house beforehand, before embarking on an unprovoked strategy of being questioned in a hurry.

Secondly, securing the Necranomicon, the magic book necessary to assist with the ritual.

They need an item to control it because it manipulates an overwhelming amount of magic, and that's a book called Necranomicon.

This is sleeping in the basement of the library, but in order to complete this I had to complete an irrational quiz event, and here I started to unwillingly see the offense on the wiki.

And finally, securing the misrills that serve as catalysts for rituals.

In order to gather magic from all over the city, not only is it difficult to control, but a large number of catalysts are needed, and there must be a large number of misrills.

The result is a number of delivery requests that I don't think are sane: 1000 pieces of Mithrill-based equipment.

Moreover, it also touched on the malice of the "cat ear cat" staff, who were only serious on the unpleasant side that misrill-based equipment would run out of stock for a while if they bought a certain number.

The "Mithrill Statue Thousand Degrees" that I had to go to was hell now, but anyway, I managed to deliver 1000 pieces of Mithrill gear.

After such painful preparation, the ritual event finally began.

Preliminary stories should have begun a ritual for "simultaneously solemnizing the resistance forces within the Alliance, and potential rebel minute children who do not recognize the value of magicians, and informing the world of the glory of the Alliance of Mages".

But when it was all ready, the magician guild leader, Kaymona Iaski, said the following words:

- Well done. Now Noun can transcend men.

I mean, Iaski wanted this ritual from the beginning because of his greed.

It didn't matter to him about the magician's flourishing.

Originally Iaski was level supremacist and tended to blind himself to power.

But I didn't even know it was a boulder that led to this.

Still, I helped Iaski with the ritual, though I had no choice.

If we were to stop the event on the way, it would have been nice to have had it happen in the first place.

We can't turn back anyway.

Then we'll have to do it all the way.

Nothing worse will ever happen.

The ritual I went with such a throwing feeling saw a one-off success.

No, whether I should call that a success or not.

The taboo ritual of "transcending man" remained to produce a nasty creature.

As soon as the ritual was over, Iaski attacked me, calling it a test, and was in a light comeback.

It couldn't have evolved to its contents as much as it had changed.

Big Mountain Ringing, I used to say.

Prepare so much, cast a reclining spell, and even use the flashy effects, I don't think this is the end of it.

"... Back off"

This ritual venue is located on the top floor of the demonic tower.

Apparently, the magic formation of the Sorcerer's Guild, which I also used for the first baptismal ritual, has also become a transfer gate to the ritual venue here, and the journey was flown here in an instant with Iaski's sorcery, but the transfer cannot be used more than that Iaski died.

No other metastatic magic or items work in this magic tower, and maybe there's no connection to the map on the data, or you can't get in or out of the mirage.

I have no choice but to walk home.

I slowly went down the tower with a sense of weakness associated with the crappy event.

As soon as I went down to the first floor and opened the entrance to the Mage Guild, an unexpected cheer greeted me.

"Ooh! Our new ally, Master Shinigami!

"Hail, goddammit! Hooray!"

The Sorcerer Alliance guilders, who were supposed to be Iaskies too, looked at me and started saying words to honor me.

I'm not sure what was handled, but I'm the next guild leader to defeat Iaski, and he's supposed to be the hero who succeeded in the ritual on Iaski's behalf.

"Master Fucking Hemp. You are the hope of a magician, having successfully performed a noble ritual that no one in the world could have done.

The Sorcerer's Guild is yours today. This is the 'Ruler's Stick' that bears witness to this.

Please, take it. "

Me being handed a stick by Deekill, the deputy guild chief, and somehow getting hold of it.

What was the opposition that desperately stopped this degree of ritual?

In the end, when I say the solemnity of the opposition, I have done nothing to the extent that, at best, I have destroyed the house that stood.

What the hell is this farce?

That was the finale of a secluded sorcerer's guild event, with no ending terrops or staff rolls, with a face to the doodling story unfolding.

At first, I barely felt uncomfortable.

What made me wonder was when I headed to the item store to replenish a healing item that I somehow consumed.

"Oh, fuck...?

There was no one in the store.

Usually as soon as you enter the store, a wasting energetic mob clerk should greet you in a wasting bright tone.

Yet the store is idle and doesn't make a single sound.

But that's crazy.

Is it to prevent discounting, there is no store clerk at the time the store is open?

The only one, if there are exceptions......

"... this"

I glanced behind the counter of the store and there was a red ribbon dropping.

Worst of all, it looks familiar.

That's what the clerk at the store always wears.

I got the certainty that I had a bad feeling about the drop.

The only possibility that no one is in the store.

That's when the clerk was killed for some reason.

Especially since the previous patch, specification changes were made to drop event items when people die.

Assuming this ribbon was an event item of some kind, Tsuji fits.

"I wonder what happened..."

Sometimes her too bright character setting made me shut up, but I liked it for the price.

When it dies, I feel a little melancholy about the boulders, though how little it affects the story progression.

If we normally go through with the story, these mob characters rarely die, but rarely is Cat Ear Cat.

Nevertheless, I don't recall such a sudden occurrence of NPC dying events going on.

Have I stepped on a mine before I know it?

I need to gather information. Get out.

"... Huh?

So finally, I realized.

There are no people in the city at all.

"Come on, you're lying!

From there, I went not only to shops such as weapons stores and lodgings that ran around the city, but also to ordinary private houses, noble mansions and shrines.

And when I could easily get into the castle, which the guards were always supposed to protect, I understood things correctly.

- That people from all over the city have disappeared and, no, died.

I knew what was causing it.

There's only one thing I can think of.

Iaski went, that ritual.

A ritual for "simultaneously solemnizing the resistance forces within the Alliance, and potential rebel children who do not recognize the value of the sorcerer, and informing the world of the glory of the sorcerer's guild".

And when it was a ritual that gathered magic from all over the city, there was an explanation.

That's all I heard. I thought to myself that Solemn Qing would happen by the effect caused by the ritual.

But maybe it wasn't.

The ritual is not a plus for anyone, it just created an ugly creature.

To be clear, the impact was tiny.

But rather, what if it wasn't the ritual deliverables that had a great deal of influence, but the process?

Considering that the procedure of gathering the enormous amount of magic needed for the ritual was responsible for the role of Solemnity, it fits reason.

It fits.

In that ritual, I guess the setting is that all the humans in the city, no, the creatures in the city who gathered magic, and were forcibly deprived of magic, are dead.

The only ones who were probably safe were those in the Mage's Guild at that time.

"What the hell, it"

Right in front of me, I felt dark.

Though in the game, within just a few hours, all the aunts of the eight hundred houses, the uncles of the inns, the kings, the princesses, and those such asshole mages are dead.

And I was even part of that ritual.

There was no deep reason.

It's just that I took so many people's lives unreasonably just because it was a boarded ship.

Thinking about it, I even got nauseous.

But it is.

"... to this extent, 'cat ear cat' is within prediction"

I didn't even play Dada this game, Cat Ear Cat.

This would have been a mess for me before I experienced the "Blessings of the Demon King" event, myself around the corner.

But this is the second time this has happened, so to speak.

I'm already able to tolerate it.

At least every inhabitant of the city is gone, which is more damaging than it was before, but it's not like they made a forced save.

Just do the loading and get back to the pre-ritual data, and we can get out of this.

I manipulate the menu screen and try to load...

"Latest, patch......?

There, I found unfamiliar news.

That's the official announcement for 'Cat Ear Cat'.

It was an announcement that a new patch had been completed.

I lost my curiosity and opened the page.

Enumerated are countless bug fixes and specification changes, and at the end of them,

"Warrior Guild, Mage Guild Event Influence Reset!?

There was a line of items that could no longer be said to be timely.

"Having received your indication that it will be difficult to continue playing normal games after closing the Alliance Event, we have introduced a remedy to restore the character's condition just before the final event…"

There is little information written in the announcement section.

However, as far as the text there is read, it seems that if you do that 'impact reset', at the same time as the event progression, the state of non-player characters and buildings can be rolled back to just before the final event.

Oh, come on, and crush it in your mouth.

I thought it would be so convenient.

But this could be destiny, the help of heaven.

I try to manipulate patch application with trembling hands...

"Shit......!

I groaned immediately.

You need to finish the game once to hit the patch.

When it comes to the latest VR games, you can't simultaneously apply patches and play games.

"What are we going to do?"

The question is whether to save this situation.

Reminds me of the last time I saved.

... I don't remember saving the last few hours.

I want to avoid quitting the game without saving here and doing this event again that is mentally tough.

or so, I am anxious to save this state...

"Well, you'll be fine."

As long as we apply the patch, we'll figure it out.

I was deliberately optimistic and ran straight to Monolith to save the data.

Subsequently, an item for the end of the game was selected without hesitation.

Naturally, the end of the game does not mean stopping the VR machine as it is.

This VR machine also naturally has the ability to start a dedicated browser and tour the net.

"Patch! Patch!

With all the excitement, all the weird soliloquy in my mouth, I start the operation abruptly.

By my order, a 3D window that is instantaneously deployed multiple times.

At the same time, by a VR app put in by Maki in a prank, the deformed "Patch! Patch!" is embodied in the computer space, hitting a window and disappearing like a bubble.

Literally scattering solitaire in the computer space, I manipulate the avatar for surfing the net to call the official page of 'Cat Ear Cat' at the speed of light and start applying the patch.

"All right, success!

I was able to access it in one shot due to some free time from patch publishing.

It shouldn't even be a big amount of data, but it creeps into a gauge that doesn't decrease at all.

But that's the usual thing.

Instead, it's my pleasure these days to use this time to find out more about the patch, and, modestly, it's blissful time.

In a boiling mood of impatience and anticipation, scroll through the official announcement page left open in a separate window to find out more about the patch.

Skipping through the numerous bug fix descriptions that usually load carefully, I get to the bottom early, the item "About Alliance Event Impact Reset".

This impact reset, simple as a method.

Immediately before the final guild event, with irrevocable influence - say, for example, in the event of the Mage's Guild, the moment of transfer to the ritual site for the ritual - a temporary save-like process is carried out internally, and when the guild event is cleared and the action is followed by a specific procedure, the data is loaded and all states except the player's talent and possessions are brought to the temporary save point.

And a specific procedure is….

"Sleeping in bed? That means..."

- In short, it is a dream och.

I laugh bitterly at the irrefutable taste of the 'cat ear cat' staff and go ahead and read.

For the Mage Guild Influence Reset, after a ritual success, the Influence Reset is automatically activated when you are asleep in a bed on the top floor added above the ritual venue.

It's easy about the Warrior Guild, and it seems that sleeping anywhere after the Guild event in the inn will activate the impact reset.

By the way, a sleep state is transitioned by either selecting "Sleep" from the game menu, lying down at a particular place, such as a bed, for a certain amount of time, or suffering from a sleep state abnormality.

Also, as an accompanying change, after a successful ritual at the Mage Alliance event, I can't get out of the Alliance, and in the end, I just have to do an impact reset, which is convincing considering.

Dead NPCs drop quest items.

Get out of the Sorcerer's Guild for it, collect quest items from people who have died under the influence of rituals, and then reset the impact, and you'll easily get quest items that aren't supposed to be available.

It would be the countermeasure.

I don't know about Dreamoch, but I'm still thinking about the details a lot - so I read on, and finally the last line, in a sentence with a * mark on it, I put my eyes through...

"Hmm...?

I felt some kind of sudden garbage in my eyes and I saw a weird sentence, and I rubbed my eyes.

... but if you think about it, there's nothing garbage in your eyes with VR.

No such gainful program is incorporated into this avatar.

I see, I turn to the last sentence again, wondering if it's a local visual disturbance bug, not garbage.

* Please note that this remedy is not available to those who have completed the Alliance event prior to the introduction of the patch for data management purposes.

"Ugh..."

From my mouth, a strange noise leaked.

The letter "Ugh, Ugh" flows through the web page, but I didn't have time to care.

Again, just think again, close your eyes, open slowly......

* Please note that this remedy is not available to those who have completed the Alliance event prior to the introduction of the patch for data management purposes.

"Wow!!!

In merciless language, I kept spitting huge strings in VR space.

And that, an hour later.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey!

In the path near the woods at the beginning, there was a figure of me waving a rusty sword and seldom beating the female bandit who attacked the carriage in a whimsical manner.

- This is the Alliance of Mages event I experienced.

- And in the game age, it's how I started playing the third circle.
