Taming Master

< 973 Br 5. Find the Water Tribes >

About a full full hour passed by.

Since Ian started to move to unite the tribes of the spirit squad, it had already been two weeks.

If it's short, if it's long, then two weeks.

There's been some really dynamic stuff going on in the spirit world, and that's just a headline from the game media that's coming up in the official community.

Breaking news!

- Will the spirit system fall like this?

- The spirit support troops have arrived!

- Lotus and St. Trion's Adventure! 2D Rift Repair!

…… Snapshot……

The war between the Spirit System and Machine Civilization was the sole concern of all Kailan users.

Even rankers who used to target other intermediaries such as Mercury, Elasium, and the Order were all gathering in the Spirit System cracks and participating in the battle.

A group of rankers from the Human Faction, a group of Spirit Systems, and a group of rankers from the Horse Faction.

Since this event was actually the first major war and the main episode in the middle, it was probably natural for most rankers to gather like this.

“Khh, this tastes different than the Knight Feud. ”

“As expected, Kailan is a full-scale war. ”

“Ha... I'd like to join in. ”

“Why don't you just enjoy watching? If we get in there on our own level...... It'll be quick! ”

“I'm just saying. I don't think I can get war quests because of level conditions anyway. ”

However, over time, as the episode of war began, the episode of machine warfare began to turn into a festival for Horse users.

- The forces of Darkness that took down the Shaia peak. And an army of spirit systems that were taken from behind.

- The fall of the fourth and fifth dimensional rifts! The spirit system is endangering again!

- Kai with the best War Contribution Points! Do you avenge the defeat of the Knights' War?

Even when the tribes of fire and the tribes of wind joined the battlefield in the first place, the situation that seemed similar was increasingly leaning toward the machine civilization.

Separate from the rankers' actions, the difference in power between the spirit system and machine civilization, due to the nature of the episode, was difficult to fill with the abilities of the users.

“Ugh, war contribution points... Shouldn't we be getting out of here by now? ”

“Yes. With the power difference, it's hard to build up contributions.... ”

“I'm going on a quest. This episode doesn't stand a chance. ”

“I see. Mechanical civilization must have won in the beginning of the story... Maybe I joined for nothing..." ”

With one rift down, the spirit faction is clearly outnumbered, and rankers in the human faction begin to step down.

The top ten guilds with such powerful power that they could not give up their Contribution Points were still holding out, but even though they were difficult to build up their Contribution Points on their own in the first place, they started to leave one by one.

And it was so natural.

Users at a level that was difficult to deal with with with the forces of a mechanical civilization on their own were the only thing they could expect in a war to be a war victory reward, but they could not see the spirit system winning, so they had no choice but to withdraw.

On the contrary, the top guilds that had already accumulated millions of contribution points were dead.

Even though we know that losing the war will cut our Contribution Points in half, we cannot give up because we have already accumulated too many Contribution Points.

“Master, wouldn't it be better for us to stay here and stay out of it? ”

“What the hell is that? Let's throw away all the contributions we've made so far? ”

“Ha... That's a shame... ”

“Farm as much Contribution Points as you can until the end of the war, and take at least half. ”

“Phew, it might be more beneficial to do different quests at that time…… I don't know what's right, really. ”

You could have left half of your Contribution Points if you lost the war, but if you gave up in the middle and left the battlefield, you couldn't get even a single toll of Contribution Points.

It is a situation that can neither be like this nor like this while watching the color grow darker.

However, some of the top guilds in the Human Faction still haven't given up hope of victory, so it was the Lotus Guild.

“Whew, that's hard to bear, really. ”

“When the hell is Ian coming back? ”

“Ha, Ian should come back before he takes all the cracks..." ”

What quest Ian is doing exactly, and how it relates to this episode of war.

The most knowledgeable users were the members of the Lotus Guild.

“I have to change my strategy, Lemir. ”

“How?”

“Focus on one rift at all, and keep it safe until Ian gets back. ”

“What is that…? ”

“We'd rather apply the guild where we support it and desperately watch for that rift. ”

“Hmm……. ”

“If there's one crack left, isn't there anything you can do when Ian breaks the quest? ”

“That's right. ”

The Guild members of Lotus, including Ian, can get a powerful Dimensional Magical Power Buff from Nogada.

On the contrary, machines of machine civilization are not affected by dimensional magical forces at all.

The story that you don't get buffs or debuffs from dimensional magical power.

This was a poisonous system for middle-class users who did not raise enough dimensional horsepower, but it was a very useful system for top-level guilds like Lotus.

For this reason, Herce decided that he would have to keep one or more cracks under control in order to turn the tide when Ian came back.

“If you work with the guild to make sure, you can keep a crack in place..." ”

“Let's call Oliver, Hers. Last time I saw him, he was kind to our guild. ”

“Good. Let's do that, then. ”

And around this time, the situation was going to change rapidly.

Ian was finally on his way to meet the ‘shortage of water', the final button for the reinforcement quest.

* * *

Get rid of Eldon.) I returned to the Guild Node and ran into Jonathan when I got back.

Ian immediately returned to the Spirit System to hear that he had successfully disarmed the Magic Reducer.

Of course, I wanted to make Kr into a mythical grade of magic, but I gave up cool and did the quest for a different reason.

Of the ingredients that enter the recipe, I found materials that I could never get to right now.

Ancient artifacts that can never be obtained, no matter how many gold or dimensional coins there are.

Margie's Tooth Ornament

- An ornament made by collecting and processing Baloch's teeth, it's an artifact that delivers powerful magic. Can be crafted using ancient artifact crafting.

None of the users had access to ancient artifact craftsmanship yet, so this was a material that could not be obtained even in an auction house.

Of course, Ian had the means to obtain this item.

I learned Artifactual craftsmanship from the Dark Keep from the shaman, Han.

Even Han had just learned artifact molding, and he had to figure out the recipe for making Margie's teeth ornaments.

Even if Ian wanted to make a khr as quickly as possible, it was an impossible situation right away.

So Ian was able to navigate back to the Spirit Realm quest without any sense, and it was the Shaia Mountains where Ian now arrived.

But the funny thing is, I swore I wouldn't hang out with Ian anymore.) A Jonathan was following behind him.

“Hey. Why are you following me again? ”

“ ……. ”

“I gave you the dagger. I gave you everything I promised you. ”

“ ……. ”

“If you're done with your business, you should go now. ”

“Hmm, I mean, that's... ”

Even when Ian's first errand was completed and returned to the Node, Jonathan was no longer his quest (?), and in fact carried out that commitment.

- Thank you, Jonathan. Clean as a whistle.

- What I promised, come on...

- Of course I do.

After receiving the dagger and quest reward from Ian, he immediately tried to return to his guild party.

Unless you're offering me a really fancy reward, I was thinking of going out like a knife and going on a personal quest.

- It's good to keep a promise. Then I'll be on my way.

Where are you going?

- I've been busy with the guild, and if I go any further with you...... I think I'm going to lose my bones.

- Thumbs up...

Magic restoration device or something. You almost drowned me disarming it?

The problem was, too, that the attractiveness of Ian's reward was not ‘messy’.

- Well, then I can't. Goodbye, then.

- Mm-hmm.

- I tried to give you the Destroyer's Amulet if you helped me with my next quest, but I can't help but feel that my bones will be shattered.

- ……?

The Destroyer's Amulet Ian mentioned as a reward was a rare and glamorous item for any assassin class!

Even Jonathan, who was close to drowning, couldn't give up on his honeycomb because he had an inventory that raised his preferred "through defense" stat by 5%.

- You're really giving me the Destroyer's Amulet?

We're on our way.

Then, is the Destroyer's Amulet valuable enough that even Jonathan, the top ranker, hasn't been rescued yet?

In conclusion, that was not the case.

Jonathan's inventory already has a Destroyer's Amulet.

However, there was a special option in this Destroyer's Amulet, which was the reason Jonathan's eyes returned.

* If you have more than one Destroyer's Amulet, all Destroyer's Amulet options apply for half the performance.

* Amulet options for Destroyers can be up to 5 stacks.

Because the Destroyer's Amulet option, Defense Piercing, was stacked up to five times, it was too attractive for Jonathan who already had three pieces.

Jonathan now had 7.5% of the defensive through-states obtained by the Destroyer's Amulet. If he obtained one from Ian, he could fit it up to 10%.

Therefore, Jonathan was not able to throw away the opportunity to obtain this precious item that could not be found in the auction house.

“No, why aren't we going yet? ”

“So. The, uh, Destroyer's Amulet.... ”

“You said you were busy in the guild. ”

“Th-that's... that's better. ”

“ ……? ”

Ian had to smile as soon as he saw Jonathan who had followed him to the Shaia peak.

I knew this was going to happen, but Jonathan was pretty cute.

‘Shall I stop teasing you...? ’

Ian smiled and shared his next quest with Jonathan.

- Tyring!

- I shared the "Searching for Water Ⅲ" quest with the user Jonathan.

After all, Jonathan, who never got out of his horse's paw, became more and more Ian.).
