Chapter 225: 225

[Achievement: First Discovery – Kaztor’s Lab No. 6(A-)]

Congratulations! You have found an undiscovered place. The 6th Lab where the dark elf Kaztor used to live, smells of old dust.

You have to be careful of the guardians you might encounter. You have to survive this time too so that you can continue to light up the darkness that plagues Middle Earth.

Reward: 32 stat points (This achievement does not have a hall of fame.)

“Oh!”

“Oh!”

“Ah, here it is.”

Leeha and Jin Gonggong were surprised by the notification window in front of them, but Fernand just nodded.

An unexplored achievement. Was it because the three of them set foot here at the same time? All three were able to get the achievement.

‘Besides, what kind of reward is this generous? Are all frontier achievements like this?’

Since it was only given to the first group of discoverers, it meant that there was no need for the second or third discoverer. That was why the reward was huge without the hall of fame.

Leeha could understand Fernand’s attitude while looking at Leeha and Jin Gonggong.

‘He has dozens of these kinds of achievements…… No, maybe even hundreds…’

He was the person who revealed more than 50% of Middle Earth alone. How many achievements did he already have?

In terms of level alone, Fernand was not able to enter the top 100, but he was able to fight against the strong monsters in the unexplored regions.

“I have seen something like this before. Ahh. That’s right. That’s right. The 3rd and 5th were a miss, but No. 5 didn’t even open with my key. Ah, what’s your job? Since you have the key to this dungeon, it seems that your main quest is pretty important in Middle Earth.”

Fernand went inside without hesitation. There was a saying to be careful of unknown places, but he, who was already an experienced adventurer, instinctively knew whether there was danger or not.

“I’m a musketeer.”

“Musket- ah, the Three Musketeers? Are you related to that? Right. In the past, I received a letter after finding the 2nd. War mercenary Lu……someone asked me if I got anything there. I didn’t get anything there, but I got some misunderstanding…… 

hmm, anyway, I think Kaztor is an important NPC…. Hey, what’s your name? Let’s see if we can get anything here.”

“Ah, yes.”

Leeha was able to get information from Fernands words.

As its name suggests, this was the 6th lab, and Kaztor’s 1st and 5th labs had already been explored. More importantly, many of them have already been opened by Fernand, and some of them have been visited by Luger.

‘What does it mean to have multiple research labs? Haven’t Luger and Kidd already finished the quest yet?’

Leeha and Jin Gonggong also entered the lab. The strange smell of medicine slightly irritated their nostrils.

A sample of an unknown organism was inside a dusty container, and the appearance of scattered laboratory articles and spider webs meant that it wasn’t empty for just one or two years.

“Leeha-nim. Here.”

“Okay.”

There were crumpled papers that prevented outsiders from reading them, but there were some documents that were kept. Leeha picked up the documents pointed out by Jin Gonggong.

[……With the power of dark elves, there is no further progress……]

[Human—-Requires a place…….]

[..Sword of God—–response–

——Suppress the Devil一-]

“Hmm….”

Did it mean that cooperating with humans was necessary? Besides, Sword of God? Most of the words were destroyed, but Leeha could roughly guess what it was.

‘It is said that God and the Devil made something. Didn’t the Devil create a bullet, and God a sword?’ (ed: I don’t remember him making a sword tho…) 

The dark elf chief described it as a power.

However, whatever the legend was, it existed in some form. It seemed reasonable to speculate that the Devil had a bullet, and God had a divine silver sword.

‘Would it be used to subdue the devil? The Sword of God overpowering the Devil? 

“Cough, Anyway, it would be impossible to complete the quest with this.”

As Leeha frowned, Fernand, who examined every nook and cranny, sneaked up on him.

“There’s nothing noteworthy here, right? That was the case in the previous lab as well. Then there must be a 7th lab somewhere…… the 5th lab was B+ grade and the 6th lab is A-, so the 7th lab should be A. You need to find it fast, Musketeer! The main scenario needs to move forward so that we could go to the eastern continent! All of the western continent hasn’t been revealed yet, but I’m tired of it already. All the unexplored regions are slowly getting revealed……”

“Really?”

“At first I am alone, but now I am not. Two months ago- no, it’s been over ten months in Middle Earth. How many users are exploring in the meantime? I’m going to die of annoyance.”

Fernand grumbled.

It was certainly in the early days that the name of the Pioneering King became popular. It has already been two months since Leeha started Middle Earth, so more than ten months have already passed in-game time.

There were still unexplored areas in some corners, but an adventurer like Fernand was likely to lose interest to some extent.

“Fernand-nim, what do you mean Eastern Continent? Western Continent?”

Jin Gonggong tilted his head.

“Oh? Haha, giant-nim doesn’t know. It’s just as the name suggests. This is the Western Continent-”

“A new continent across the Sea of Dawn. Is that what you call the Eastern Continent?”

“……How?”

Leeha supplemented Fernand’s words. The face of the Pioneering King, who had a light expression on his face at the entrance of the dungeon, hardened for the first time. Leeha sighed slightly.

‘He really didn’t listen to me at all.’

Then he pulled out a letter from his bag.

It was the item he obtained from Fibiel’s Royal Archives, [Fernand’s Last Letter].

“I am an envoy of Fibiel Royal Palace. The king wants to form a new continent expedition fleet with Fernand-nim at the head.”

Leeha handed Fernand’s Letter to Fernand. How did it feel to get back the item he left that day?

Fernand looked at Leeha with wide eyes. Leeha did not avoid his gaze.

“Let’s go together.”

“Aren’t you a user? NPC? What envoy?”

“Leeha-nim! You’re a special envoy?”

Not only Fernand but also Jin Gonggong was surprised and perplexed at Leeha.

“Ah, no, it’s just a term. I got a quest like that. I used the word envoy in order to look cool.”

He used the word envoy in order to look cool and he also thought that he might persuade Fernand if he used such an expression, but he reacted so seriously.

“Ohh…… My letter from the Royal Archives…… The king seems to be interested. He was so upset when I asked for help.”

“He must have realized the importance of Fernand-nim now. Would you like to go to the palace with me?”

“……I would like to but, it is not the right time yet.”

Fernand shook his head at Leeha’s suggestion. He wanted to go to the eastern continent as soon as possible before, but now he was shaking his head.

“What do you mean time?”

“Users aren’t ready yet. The last time I organized a fleet, the level of users was all low, so I went to the NPC fleet…… But that didn’t work either.”

“It looks like the monsters are strong. Strong is an understatement. Ships equipped with cannon-like things will be completely destroyed and will sink in one hit. It wasn’t even from magic. The NPCs call it a Sea Beast. It’s a monster of the sea that is bigger than most ships……”

Fernand, who did not even care when Leeha and Jin Gonggong entered the dungeon, trembled.

‘There’s already a musket…… so it’s only natural for there to be cannons that could be attached to ships. But it wasn’t enough. What kind of monster was it?’ 

However, after thinking more about it, there was a possibility.

For example, a giant monster, the Kraken that Leeha knew was an octopus that hits a ship from below and wraps its tentacles around it. It would be unreasonable to fight against it with only a few cannons on the side of a ship.

Because those kinds of cannons are not able to change directions.

‘It would have been even more impossible if there were more sea monsters other than the Kraken.’

As Leeha nodded after understanding the situation, Fernand shrugged his shoulders.

“I should have gone then. Now, when we come back and try to gather a fleet, it would definitely be users. In what way could users break through something that even NPCs couldn’t? Do you think Alexander and Lee Jiwon would participate at the same time? The two of them can’t even be together-”

[The Guardian of Kaztor’s 6th lab appears.]

[Escape before the lab door closes.]

Ahh. It’s here as well. Let’s get going.”

The lights suddenly dimmed and the whole basement began to tremble. Fernand walked out towards the exit as if he was used to it, but Leeha and Jin Gonggong were flustered.

“If you don’t want to be buried and die, you have to run~ Haha.”

“Is that something that you can laugh about?”

“I did more with the Ancient Treasure Chest from the past! At that time, the stone was rolling from behind like in the movies, it was so fast.”

Fernand staggered and ran while talking. They have already noticed the trap earlier and when they escaped the trap with their agile movements, they finally escaped from the basement.

Gwraaaaa-!!!!

“Oh…… Is it a different type of guardian than last time?”

A huge monster roared making even Fernand bewildered.

“It’s kind of ominous, somehow it’s been ominous since I saw the Dragon Bone!!”

Jin Gonggong rolled his feet and looked around. Some of the bones surrounding the secret underground entrance were empty.

It’s bound to be empty.

Originally, the bones, which stood tall and formed the shape of a roof, were assembled and combined with each other to form a single small dragon.

Even Leeha had a rough understanding of the monster. It’s just that it’s not alive.

“Drake……

“To be more accurate. It’s a bone drake. Its estimated level is 220. I’m glad it’s not a real dragon. Oh, the weakness- maybe it’s the pattern on its chest.”

“Have you ever dealt with one?”

Fernand shook his head at Leeha’s question Fernand took out a small magnifying glass that Leeha had never seen before and was shining on the Drake.

“No. It’s my skill. Let’s run now. The three of us can’t catch the Bone Drake If I had attack skills, I would have dealt with it, but since that isn’t my job, it’s a little bit difficult. You know?”

Fernand put the magnifying glass in his pocket, pulled out a scroll, and continued.

“-It’s been fun so far, but I will hold back on going to the new continent until the users grow a little bit more-”

“Is the sea monster(海獸) stronger than that drake??”

Looking at the bone drake, Leeha held the Black Bass. He can’t send him away like this.

“Yes?”

“Is it stronger than that?”

“Hmm, that’s right. Besides, the difficulty is much higher because you have to deal with a bigger and stronger guy with a ship with limited space-”

Flap, flap, flap!

The bone drake flapped its bone wings and flew.

It was a flight that completely disregarded the law of physics, but it was a threat to Leeha, Fernand, and Jin Gonggong’s life!

“Wahhh!”

Kwraaaaa-!

With just a simple flight movement, it threw the three people around.

‘It’s not a dragon, it’s a drake. It’s also undead. It can’t use magic.’

The distance was close. But its movement was fast and the speed of flight was also quite fast, so it was hard to aim. Nevertheless, Leeha did not put the Black Bass aside.

“If I catch that, will you go to the new continent with me?”

Phew…….

Haaaa…….

Still, he rather felt comfortable.

He was accustomed to aiming at fast-moving targets now because of the Midnight Circus. Besides, he was able to practice through Jin Gonggong’s golden eagle transformation.

At that time, they were moving and there was even vibration.

In other words, in other words, he was in a much better situation than before.. 

“Yes? Oh, wait- what’s your name? So, you’re going to catch that? No matter how I look at it-”

Kwraaaaa-!!!

The bone drake roared again and began to pick up speed. Normally, Leeha would have aimed for the head, but not this time. Most importantly, the fact that Fernand’s skill grasped the enemy’s weakness gave Leeha confidence.

If he knew the enemy’s ‘weakness’, there was nothing to fear.

Even if only a pattern with a 5cm diameter pattern on the bone drake’s chest.

“-you don’t stand a chance?! I feel comfortable just using the scrol-”

“Shh.”

Leeha quickly focused his left eye.

The flying speed of the drake was at a level that slightly exceeded Jin Gonggong’s flying speed. It was like looking at a plane flying toward him, but Leeha’s hands did not tremble. Calm Mind. There was no agitation. And then he shot it.

A gunshot louder than the bone drake’s roar resounded.
