502.

‘That's a lot. ’

Arriving at Hardlock's tomb, Alex could see an enormous crowd.

It didn't compare to when I first came.

Alex pierces the crowd and heads to the entrance.

“You came too soon. ”

There were already mercenaries of Ian and Drake Guild, and mercenaries of the Lem Guild.

“I'm here on time. ”

Alex smiled at Ian and replied.

“Let's go in.”

Then Alex took the lead and began to move forward.

Ian moves quickly, in case it's later than Alex.

Alex and Ian, who entered Hardlock's tomb, were forced to stop walking shortly.

“The entrance was blocked? ”

“Is it because Su-hyuk went in? ”

“I guess so. ”

“What are you going to do? ”

Ian asked.

“Erem.”

Instead of answering the question, Alex calls Erem, who was waiting in the back.

“Yep!”

“Take a look. I don't know if I can smash it or if there's another way. ”

“Please wait a bit! ”

Erem replies to Alex and immediately approaches the stone gate.

And I began to look everywhere at the stone gate.

Erem, who had been looking at the stone door for a while, said:

“There's a device. Shall I open it?”

In Erem's words, Alex nods silently, and Erem pulls out a small shovel from the sack.

Then I started digging the floor with a shovel.

It wasn't the only one.

Erem, who was digging the floor, pulls a small pickaxe out of his ear sack and starts hitting the left wall.

Soon.

Chuckle. Gugu Gu Gu Gu Bow...

The stone door went up.

Alex and Ian started moving again.

Soon, however, I was forced to stop walking again.

Jubbuck... Jubbuck...

I heard footsteps from the front.

Alex pauses and sends a signal.

The mercenaries who followed stopped walking when they saw the signal.

And I started watching the front.

Soon after, the protagonist of footsteps appeared, and Alex and Ian shouted with a surprised expression.

“Hut, Su-hyuk! ”

“Are you all right?”

* * *

[You have entered the tomb of the mercenary king of Dungeon Hardlock.]

[Admission is possible for up to 20 people.]

[to be cleared upon arrival in the last room.]

Moved along the corridor, Su-hyuk saw the message and paused for a moment.

It's not past the door.

It was still a passage.

‘From here on in the dungeon.... ’

But the dungeon started.

Su-hyuk confirmed the perimeter.

To make sure there was nothing different from before.

But I didn't see anything different.

The passage that I have seen so far has remained the same.

Su-hyuk began to take another step.

Shortly after, he reached the end of the corridor and Su-hyuk was able to reach the cavity.

[You entered the first room.]

As soon as I stepped into the cavity, a message appeared.

Old Bow!

Then a strange sound sounded from the back.

Su-hyuk turned around and confirmed the identity of the sound.

The stone door was coming down from the ceiling.

I felt like I was blocking the retreat.

Su-hyuk turned his head to identify the interior of the cavity.

There must be a reason to stop dropping out.

"As usual."

It was as expected.

As soon as the stone door comes down completely, the wall of the cavity begins to open.

Then the monsters appeared through the walls.

Ugh.....

Ughh...

The monster was a zombie.

Su-hyuk was a little surprised to see a zombie.

‘That..... ’

The zombies' clothing is symbolized by the Lem Guild and the Drake Guild.

“Flash.”

First, Su-hyuk casts a flash at the zombies.

The rays emanating from Su-hyuk's hand penetrate the zombies.

And shortly after, Su-hyuk could see the message.

[You have defeated all monsters.]

[The passage of the second room has been opened.]

Is the passageway open? ’

Su-hyuk nodded.

There was no change in the cavity for him either.

‘No way..... ’

Su-hyuk looks at the entrance where the zombies came out.

I thought that might be the passage to the second room.

Su-hyuk began to take steps to confirm.

‘That's really unfriendly. ’

As he moved his steps, he thought,

If it's a dungeon, it can be explained by a message or by a quest.

However, Hardrack's tomb, the mercenary king, had no other explanation.

‘That would be a huge reward. ’

That didn't make me feel bad.

The less explanation, the more unfriendly the reward was.

Soon.

[You entered the second room.]

Su-hyuk was able to get to the second room.

As expected, the entrance where the zombies came out was the passage to the next room.

Gu Gu Bow.

Immediately after entering the room, a stone door descends from the ceiling of the passageway through which Su-hyuk passed.

[In 30 seconds, the passage of the third room will open.]

And a message came out.

“ ……? ”

Su-hyuk doubted.

Is it just a matter of waiting? At that time, a further message emerged that was thinking:

[Turns into a zombie upon death after poisoning.]

Saaaaaah.....

A message appears and purple smoke begins to emanate from the wall.

‘So……. ’

Su-hyuk knew why the mercenaries of the Drake Guild and the Lem Guild became zombies.

He was poisoned by purple smoke.

Within a week, purple smoke filled the room.

[Not addicted.]

.

And a message came out.

Su-hyuk waited 30 seconds to see the message.

It's been 30 seconds.

[The third corridor is open.]

A message appeared.

Saaaaaah.....

The purple smoke that filled the room disappeared at a rapid rate.

Su-hyuk saw the direction in which purple smoke disappeared.

There was a new passage that had never existed before.

Su-hyuk took a step along the corridor.

[You entered the third room.]

The passage was short and Su-hyuk could soon reach the third room.

"Statue?"

The third room was different from the one I visited earlier.

It wasn't empty.

Dozens of statues stood.

[Destroy all the statues.]

Subsequent to the message, Su-hyuk knew the conditions for the passage of the third room.

“The Light of Destruction. ”

[Cooldown of Destruction Light has been initialized.]

Su-hyuk cast the light of doom right away.

The statues that began to move disappeared in the light.

The statues disappeared in an instant and a message appeared.

[The last passage is open.]

I was a little surprised when I saw the message.

I thought I should at least go a few more places.

But it was already the last room.

Su-hyuk confirmed the time.

Ten minutes have just passed since I entered.

Su-hyuk headed to the last room through a new passage.

[You entered Hardlock's tomb.]

Soon, Su-hyuk was able to reach Hardlock's tomb in the last room.

There was a coffin in the centre.

The coffin of the mercenary king Hardlock was clear.

Gbhh...

[Warning!]

[Mercenary King Hardlock's identity has appeared.]

The coffin opened and a message appeared.

[Win the battle against the Self of Mercenary King Hardlock.]

“The Light of Destruction. ”

As soon as he saw the message, Su-hyuk once again cast a devastating light.

[Mercenary King Hardlock's Self-Defense has been killed.]

Hardlock's body, which came out of the coffin, disappeared with the coffin.

[The Treasure Chamber Passage opens.]

And a message came out.

Su-hyuk headed straight for the treasure room through the passageway.

[You have entered the Treasure Room.]

[Possible Items: 5]

[You have completed the special quest 'Heritage of Mercenary King Hardlock’.]

[Increase the number of items that can be obtained as a reward.]

[Possible Items: 10]

A message appeared at the same time as the entry box and the special quest ‘Heritage of Mercenary King Hardlock’ was completed.

‘Five……. ’

Su-hyuk, who confirmed the reward, was a little disappointed.

He also had so much treasure.

Su-hyuk saw treasures lined up around him.

There were enough crates to go over 100.

Su-hyuk confirmed the information of the boxes near him.

"Huh?"

And I was forced to be surprised at the same time as confirming.

Source can be obtained when used.

The source box? ’

Su-hyuk opened the quest window.

There are no hidden options. Achieve the conditions below to unlock the hidden option of 'nothing'!

[Source of Fire: 0/1]

[Source of water: 0/1]

[Source of Wind: 0/1]

[Origin of Earth: 0/1]

Quest Reward: Unlock One Free Option

‘Is this the source? ’

The source of attributes required for the Open Quest of Nothing.

I wondered if the source that I was talking about in the source box was the source of the attribute.

‘Ten anyway. ’

Number of items you can take.

You can use at least one to confirm.

Su-hyuk immediately put the box in his inventory.

[Obtain the source box.]

And I opened the box at the same time as I acquired it.

[You used the source box.]

[Obtain 3 Fire Sources.]

Su-hyuk smiled widely.

It was the real source.

I was worried about how to save the source of fire, the source of water, etc., but I saw the way.

Su-hyuk looked at the boxes.

There are still a lot of source boxes left.

Do you have a New Grade Recipe Box? ’

It was the legacy of the mercenary king Hadlak.

There was a good chance there was a new grade box.

‘But when..... ’

But for a moment, Su-hyuk frowned a little.

Over 100 tens of thousands of crates.

Includes over 200 sacks and over 400 pieces of equipment.

There were so many legacies left by Hardlock.

Su-hyuk quickly began to check the information.

Soon after confirming all the item information, Su-hyuk frowned a little.

‘I don't..... ’

I checked all item information without missing any boxes, sacks, or equipment, but I didn't see any new rank.

Most of them were legends, heroes.

Su-hyuk acquired three additional source boxes and opened them.

[Obtain 2 Sources of Water.]

[Obtain 4 Sources of Earth.]

[Obtain 3 Sources of Wind.]

"Thank goodness."

In case of duplication, maybe Su-hyuk sighed with relief.

Then I opened the quest window to complete the quest right away.

[You have completed quest ‘Nothing' 7.]

[The sixth option of None will be opened.]

Su-hyuk looked at the message and thought,

‘There's only one left. ’

This time, the only thing left to complete the "nothing" 7 was "nothing" 2.

I was comfortable seeing the end.

Su-hyuk smiled and identified new options.

Limit: Wizard, Wisdom 5000

Magic Attack Power Up: 15

Equipment can be effected even in a disarmed state. (When worn, no other weapon can be affected.)

“ ……? ”

I was filled with doubts about the look on Hyuk's face that confirmed the option.

‘What other option is this? ’
