Taming Master

The heart of the earth, the sacred object of the second earth, became a compass for matching quests, just like in the snow of the earth.

As soon as you broke through Bizarre Canyon, the quest was activated and the green dots started flashing on the minimap.

However, Ian's expression, once he checked the minimap, turned into a strange feeling.

"Hmm, is the third of the sacrament outside Bitterstella? This is the southernmost spot on Mount Spirit, not Bitterstella.... ’

The reason why Ian became a curious face was simple.

Of course, the location of the last of the sacred objects of the earth, which were supposed to be hidden somewhere in Bitterstella, was imprinted in the wrong place that I did not expect.

To be precise, the destination for the quest was not the location of the sacred object, but rather the location of the quest.

The purpose of Ian's quest was to find the 'resolution of the earth’, so I thought the destination was the location of the holy things.

‘Well, we'll have to go where it says. Quests don't lie. ’

So, Ian left behind curiosity and began to lead the warriors of Gractus.

But when I crossed the southern part of Bitterstella,

As the quest progressed, there was another variable that Ian had not thought of.

“I'm here to see the great warrior of the forest. ”

“What? What are you doing here? ”

“The Earth led us here. ”

“The Goddess?”

“Wait here for the Grand Warrior." ”

Just before leaving Bitterstella, I met the warriors of the Hielves of the forest, the Chatra clan.

And I was able to receive a message from Solomiel, leader of the Châtra clan, saying, "The Trust of the Earth."

“The earthly God has placed his trust. ”

“What trust? ”

“Soon the destroyers of the machine civilization will attack the Temple of the Earth. ”

“ ……? ”

“So with the warriors of the Gractus clan, defend the shrine from the destroyers." ”

But Ian was even more baffled by Solumiel's story.

The contents of the quest have not changed, and the heart of the earth still points south. Suddenly, I heard that I have to protect the temple, so I was confused.

‘Is this how the quest works? ’

But after a little more of what Solomon said, Ian was able to nod.

“With the great warriors of Gractus, we will defend the Temple of the Earth. The great warrior heads south." ”

“Ah……. ”

“After obtaining the final sanctuary, return here with the warriors of the Selamus tribe. ”

The encounter with Solumiel was a necessary story in the flow of Epic Quests, since the quest itself has not changed.

Of course, it was different that the warriors of Gractus, who were moving together, had to leave behind.

‘It's a pity that you can't use the Elite Warrior Triangle, but you'll meet again when you break the match quest. ’

So Ian leaves the warriors of Gractus in the forest and starts moving south out of Bitterstella.

The advantage is that the group's size has decreased again, making their movement speed faster.

‘While we're on the move, let's just keep our minds clear. ’

Ian blindly closed his eyes on the back of the disadvantage, pulling out the memories long ago while he had time.

* * *

An entity that first taught Ian about the existence of the Spirit System.

And for the first time, he gave me an epic quest related to the main story of the Spirit Realm.

Ian remembered that he had already met Elisha, the Spirit of Water King, more than a year ago.

- O absolute Selamus, please lift the darkness from our spiritual system. Just like in the old days, so that our spirits can become human friends....

Ian suddenly remembered meeting Elisha for no other reason.

The quest in progress was to find the section of the Selamus family and at the same time the quest for the Holy Spirit King, which reminded me of a quest in the past that had a common denominator 'Selamus’ and ‘Spirit King’.

‘Summon the Spirit King who summoned Elisha...' The quest that was won was the test of the ancient Selamus clan. Was it an absolute Celamous quest, exactly? ’

The absolute Selemus quest proved strong by fighting against the eight absolute Desert Tribes.

And the reward for that quest was the 'Summon Spirit King Mage’ item.

With the help of 'Han’, the most skillful of the pretenders, Ian was able to activate the sorcerer, and met Elisha summoned by the sorcerer and received a quest from her.

The old quest that hasn't been completed to date, which is getting closer to transcendence level 100.

- Spirit King Elisha's Request Ⅰ (Epic) (Hidden) (Association)

- This quest has not yet been completed.

And now I know a lot of episodes related to the Spirit King.

Thinking back to the situation at that time, I understood the mysteries.

‘Basically, the magic team that summons spirits is the artifact that allows them to contract with them. I couldn't sign Elisha at the time...... because she was trapped in the Lacatorium. ’

And when he came to this point, Ian was able to make some more inferences.

The Selamus family that helped Ian meet Elisha as a long bridge.

At the time, I thought they were simply providing the Summon Spirit King Wizard and had nothing to do with the quest, but when I postponed the appearance of the name Selamus in the Sacred Quest of the Earth, I thought that it might have been the intention of 'Eos’, the absolute god of Selamus, to meet Elisha from the beginning.

‘Suddenly I'm curious. When we find Selamus' quarters and arrive, will we be able to meet the Warrior NPCs of Selamus again? ’

Ian has done several quests related to Selamus, with good familiarity with the NPCs of the Selamus.

NPCs such as "Eos," which is the absolute conqueror of Selamus, and "Eclipse," which is the protector of Selamus.

In the case of Eclipse, who was a level 300 idiot, there was a good chance that he would not be a "middleman," but in the case of Eos, the absolute conqueror, he was not at all strange, even though he was already a middleman.

‘I'm looking forward to it in many ways. This quest... ’

The more I think about my past stories, the more interesting ideas that follow me from multiple angles.

And while Ian was having second thoughts, Ian's group quickly made their way across the Spirit Mountain to their destination.

- Tyring!

- We've arrived at the Ruins Unknown, South of Mount Spirit.

- The conditions are met.

And Ian's eyes, which were checking the messages, were enlarged once again.

- Subquests are triggered.

- The 'Trace of Whydor Village (Epic) (Leading) (Association)' Quest has been triggered.

The quest continued to unfold in a direction that broke expectations.

‘Leading Quests? Is this a quest to break before proceeding with Selamus Quest? And what of Whydor Village? ’

Blame-.

Ian stepped off the back of the struggle with a light foot and started looking around.

* * *

The place where Ian arrived, along with the sacred objects of the earth, was actually a very familiar place.

A place that acts like the southern part of Mount Spirits and like a novice village in the Spirit System.

It was a field called "The Unknown Ruins," not far from the village of Pneuma.

“Wow! He came on a dragon. ”

“Awesome, minimum legend summoned, right? ”

“Khh, I envy you. The equipment looks really good, but it looks like it's over level 50. ”

“Why did such a high level come here? ”

The 'Unknown Ruins' field was a hunting ground for most users entering the spirit system.

Compared to transcendent levels and drop experience, the ‘Contaminated Spirits’ that are easy to capture are the hunting grounds of the masses, so it was the user's favorite hunting ground between transcendent levels 10-15.

Ian was a hunting ground that had not been traversed because he broke through the area so quickly, but that didn't mean he didn't know the field itself.

It's just a place I haven't been a few times, and I just couldn't figure it out by looking at the coordinates.

‘The coordinates were here... Is there some kind of hidden dungeon here? ’

Ian became more confused.

It was ironic to have the Selamus near the beginner hunting grounds, where the last of the earthly sacraments were stored.

Moreover, the map in the vicinity has been uncovered by numerous users of the spirit system.

If Selamus had been in the vicinity, it would have been so strange not to have been known to the community yet.

‘I need to read the quest first. I can't seem to find anything by looking around the coordinates.... ’

Ian tilted his head slightly, and began to read the contents of the newly created quest.

And as I read the content, I began to be interested in Ian's eyes.

< Trace of Whydor Village (Epic) (Leading) (Association) >

- The Heart of the Earth, a sacred object of the second earth, has led you south to Mount Spirit. And there you find traces of the ruined ancient village of Vlador. We don't yet know why the heart of the earth led you here. But the power of the earth couldn't have been directed here for no reason. In the ruins of Hudor, the spiritual village where the water sanctuary used to be, look for traces of the Selamus clan. If we can find it, we should be able to get a little closer to the location in Selamus.

-Quest Difficulty: B-

-Quest timeout: none

- Quest Conditions: 'Searching for (Epic) (Association)' Quest in Progress

* The next preceding quest will be linked when you complete the corresponding quest. (‘Trace of Fura' Quest)

- Reward: 18,000 Reputation (Transcendence), Amity +3 with Water Spirit King ‘Elisha’, Spirit King's Head Ornamental Fragment

The town where the water sanctuary used to be? So this is the water attribute version of Pneumatic Village? ’

Ian's mind began to get complicated again as he learned new information from the quest contents, and a sudden system message flashed before his eyes.

- Tyring!

- "Ian" revealed the secret of "The Unknown Ruins A."

- From now on, the name "Unknown Ruin A" will change to "Ruins of Hudor."

And the message was not only visible to Ian, but the global message that was visible to all users who had access to the spirit system.
