Espo City's tavern boasted a much larger space than Belong City's.

It was partly because Act2 had much more people than each Act 1 city, but also because it tasted like alcohol and food.

There are even people who can't forget the taste of the food they've tasted here, stopping their training for a while and visiting the pub.

Therefore, the pub in Espo City was so crowded that it was hard to find any empty seats.

Alondo and Darby, who stopped by the pub after a long time, were among them.

Having already emptied three or four bottles of alcohol and enough food to fill their stomachs, the two looked satisfied and breathed out with a feeling of satiety.

"Whoa. This is a circle. I came here to talk to you for a while, and then I totally ate it.”

"It's always. It's not comparable to beef jerky, so I have no choice but to eat until my stomach explodes every time I drop by here."

The two, who had praised the restaurant's new menu for a while, could only get to the point after some food reviews were completed.

said Alondo after sipping fruit wine.

"So, you said you just got back today, didn't you?"

"Yes. It's been 50 years since I broke the closure, and it reminded me of here. Why, what happened in the meantime?”

"There was. A very big thing.

"Hmm."

Darby looked at Alondo with a look of anticipation.

Alondo disliked the drawn-out narratives of the original storyteller, so he went straight to the point.

"They say Bae Soo-jin's camp was smashed and all the members were killed.”

"······뭐? Drainage? That drain?"

"Yes. The drainage."

Darby couldn't speak for a long time.

Very shocked, said Alondo to him, who did nothing but look at his face.

"It's a big deal, right?"

"······인정. It's a total hit. I thought those bastards would do this for millennia."

a sudden gulp of booze

Alondo continued, recalling that he also had a bad memory of Bae Soo-jin.

"Well, that's what happened. Most of them, including the captain and the executives, died. Maybe he's alive or something, but he'll be dead soon. Or you'll have to be stuck for about 1,000 years. 'Cause there's more than one of them.'

"Right. They, ·· 하 하 하 하 하 하. I don't even want to think about it. He died well. He died really well.”

While trying to bring out the words inside, Darby, who quit, instead spoke out a series of curses about Bae Soo-jin.

Alondo shook his head when he saw Darby cursing at his parents, cursing at his ancestors, and even the summer when Lex Lubro lived.

I didn't see him like that, but he knows a lot of bad language.

Of course, it wasn't that I didn't understand.

Only the people who know know it, but Bae Soo-jin's behavior was horrible and dirty enough to cause nausea.

Moreover, the fact that all the dirty work was limited to the formidable 'human's' was enough to twist their judgment.

"No, even though we can't help each other, the babies who don't even look into each other's eyes because they're afraid of trouble for the Yongin people or high-elves."’

Alondo felt his anger gradually rising when he, too, came up with the idea of Bae Soo-jin.

In the end, Alondo joined the swearing parade, forgetting that he was burdened with Darby's swearing.

The two, who had been chewing on the ruined drain for a long time, soon calmed their excitement down and went back to the original story.

"So you didn't ask me anything really important. Who the hell did that? I don't think they're human, and did those crazy guys touch you? Otherwise, I don't think I'd be ruined in a second."

Darby, who belatedly expresses his doubts.

That's because Bae Soo-jin was never a pushover.

Based on the overall criteria of Act 2, there were more powerful forces, but only for humans, Bae Soo-jin was the group that possessed the strongest force.

Therefore, Darby thought that killing Bae Soo-jin was definitely a mixed race or a half-body, and after hearing Alondo's story, he was very surprised.

"What? Human?"

"Yes."

"What, are you sure? How could you...?

"I'm sure it's true that Oracle told me. Rumor has it that Bae Soo-jin's fortress was smashed to the point where the landscape changed, but people who wondered who did this must have collected money and asked Oracle for it. His name is Vulcan. Have you ever heard of it?"

"No. Not at all."

Darby shook his head with a blank face.

Alondo nodded and continued.

"I see. It's the first name I've ever heard of. I asked just in case."

"Huh. How did a strong man like that ever live without his name known to be known? No, before that, are we really human? How can humans be that far?

"Well, it's not like there's no such thing as a thousand, two thousand years of training. Bae Soo-jin must have gotten caught without knowing the true master. That's good for us. To give them a blow in our power, 방··."."."."."

Although Alon was vague, Darby also could guess the story behind it, so he didn't have to wait for it.

He spoke with a look of admiration.

"Oh, that's great. There's no room for disagreement with the strongest human being.”

"Don't call me the strongest man. Because you look weak. I don't know, but most of Act 2's Yongin people and their half bodies can't beat him.”

"Is that so?"

"Of course. Is it easy to smash the drain with a single body, and that's what's inside the fort?"

"Hmm, ···, ···"

Listening to Alondo, Darby gulped down about half of his new order and then passed by.

"Then, maybe you'll see the first human being to break Act 2.”

"Uh,·,·,·"

an atmosphere of instant seriousness

Both Darby and Alon stopped doing what they were doing, frowned and immersed themselves in their own thoughts.

After such a short period of time.

Alondo was spoken in a slightly quivering voice.

"Maybe so,··· 흠 흠 흠."

After touching his chin, he immediately added a horse.

"It looks like a baby on the outside, but I don't know if I'll be able to enjoy it in a few hundred years.”

"Hmm? What are you talking about? Did you see Vulcan in person?”

Alondo nodded to Dabin, who spoke with a very surprised look.

"Yes. He's at the Espoo City auction house right now. Why, you want to go see it?"

a squeaking sound

Dabin, who rose in a hurry and produced an unpleasant frictional sound between the chair and the floor.

Without looking back, he opened the door of the bar and went out.

Alondo, who had become alone in a flash, looked blankly at the door of the bar he had opened, muttered as if he had been hit.

"······이거 네가 계산하기로 했잖아.”

*

"How did you find such an object?"

"아니! 이 정도로 강력한 수기가 느껴지는 스태프라니······ 도대체 어떤 방법으로 마석을 가공한 거지······."

"Teacher, isn't this also great?"

"I don't have the money to buy you, so stay still."

“······.”

The auction house in Espoo City was crowded with thousands of people due to an untimely flood of items.

The standard of appraising items was very strict, so the number of items registered in a day was different from usual when there were no more than ten items.

More than 50 different pieces of equipment occupied the shelves of the auction house.

The level was also very high.

Minimum B+ rating.

Even those who visited the auction house, looking at the occasional A+-rated items, couldn't come to their senses and soon took part in the auction with all their money.

Since the highest-paid person within 24 hours was in the form of winning the bid, participants who were afraid of having other competitors, both you and I, were careful not to let the rumor spread and keep their mouths shut.

However, things could not have spread in these public places, and in less than five hours, the auction house had become such a hot place as a tavern.

Vulcan, looking at this scene, smiled contentedly.

Looking at the winning bid, there was a strange pleasure that was different from when I level up.

'This should be enough money to buy the ingredients.’

Vulcan looking around the interior of the auction house, which has become as noisy as a stall market.

He nodded as if he had nothing more to see, opened the door and came out.

Walking down the street, feeling the pleasant breeze blowing in, he sat on a suitable bench and recalled Pantairo, who had now left.

Fantasy who looked at himself with a smile until the end.

It was a pity that the most reliable ally was going down into the summer, but it was impossible to hold onto it.

'Now I'll be well off there.’

Although I felt uneasy for a day or two because of the envy of Fantiro, who saved the world from the end, I am now in a state of calmness.

Now is the time to try again to run forward.

But in spite of this ambitious spirit of Vulcan, there was nothing that could be done immediately.

More than 10 days are left before the Blue Dragon recovers from his illness.

It was very dangerous to go out of Espo City now that the fresh summons was limited, because Poir was still alive with his eyes wide open.

'And as in the case of the suddenly stronger Poi르의r, the chimera maker might have changed.'

What might have made the new chimera squirm to catch him.

So instead of heading straight to a field with high-level monsters, he decided to do the spec-up in a different way.

He took out his inventory and took out five books.

books of ordinary design that can be seen everywhere

However, the contents were unique and hard to find anywhere.

These were the books containing the secrets developed by as many as 200 high-quality wizards.

Vulcan smiled bitterly a few days ago, recalling the time when he was searching for Bae's main position.

After getting as many as five legendary skill books, he remembered himself laughing so loudly that his wounds burst.

'Unfortunately, this was the only thing that could be used.'

The phrase 'incomplete skill' that you could see when you sent Pantairo to summer and later checked the detailed options.

Vulcan shuddered to the dismay of that time and put four books back in as if throwing garbage.

Then he picked up the remaining book and looked at the explanation through the system.

'I'm glad I got this, ·····.'.'

[Mystery of the Legendary Skill Body Remodeling]

[Level Limits: 600]

A book containing the secrets of body modification created by Lex Lubro and Bae Soo-jin's executives. It contains the secret of making the warrior's body more mana-friendly, more suitable for martial arts.

Probability of success in secret method

Ingredients required for the secret recipe: 1 liter of sap from the Janggun tree, 10 hearts of the fallen hellish bulldozoon, 15 eyes of the dragon, 100 super-class mana stones containing the power of brain warfare, ····

Ingredients that fill your eyes.

The Vulcan shook his head with appalling frowns.

'It's crazy to save this alone. Cancer.'

Of course, some of the ingredients had blanks, too.

The sap of the general tree was more than a liter, and the heart of the fallen hellish bulldozoon could be as large as 1,000, not 10.

However, in the case of the materials from the hunting ground where the bullcans don't pass through, no matter how much he plays, he can't have them.

But it was too inefficient to run on your own to look for them.

There was no reason to do so.

Vulcan looked through a vast list of items that were asleep in the inventory.

A few times as many weapons, armor, and magic tools as they are now up at auction.

It was a supplementary income after 100 years of hard work.
