Chapter 225
Episode 225
It wasn’t that surprising.
‘Because I inherited the skills of the Gourmet King.’
The worshiper White Mask fought to the death with the Gourmet King over 300 years ago. Information that you cannot fail to know if you have watched his battles so far.
The reason why X was startled was because of the white mask’s relaxed tone of speech.
‘Were you waiting on purpose?’
You are full of confidence.
X maintained his tension and grabbed the handle of the traveler’s sword. It was to react to the White Mask’s actions at any time.
But the white mask just continued speaking in a strange voice.
“It was unexpected that you defeated Hongdong.”
“…Hongdong?”
“Don’t you remember meeting on the Severed Continent?”
“!”
Hongdong It seemed to be a word meaning a red mask. As expected, the White Mask knew everything that happened on the disconnected continent.
The white mask shakes its head.
“I thought the plan would be a little different. That’s because the heir to the Gourmet King was on the Severed Continent. “I never thought I could easily defeat Hongdong, who devoted himself to him.”
The white mask pretended to clap. X snorted.
‘Who is that bastard making fun of?’
I don’t feel the pressure I felt from the red mask.
In other words, it was as if that white mask was not the real person. The White Mask also told a story about him.
“Now I am just a mortal buried in history, but it is very dangerous to be associated with the Gourmet King. “I thought I couldn’t look down on him just because he was the successor.”
“Does that mean you were scared of me?”
“Hehe, let’s make a memorial service and check your face.”
ancestral rites?
It was unclear what the ancestral rite was for, but the main body of the white mask seemed to be in the midst of a ancestral rite.
In that case, it could be said that his appearance was a misjudgment.
X’s eyes focused on the conch shell.
‘It’s not an ordinary item. ‘You can’t miss the opportunity.’
I still didn’t know the power of the conch shell. But one thing was clear: the White Mask needed that shell. X was not the type to calmly enrich the enemy.
‘Spurring the ocean current.’
Heavenly Cooking sub-skill activated!
Although it was disposable, it had the effect of turning water into land.
Use the Chukji method according to the activation of the lower skill! X pierced the sea like a torpedo and rushed towards White Mask.
“Unlike the body, the head doesn’t seem to be very wise.”
“?”
“Like I said, I didn’t show up for no reason.”
Ssssss.
I thought I had grabbed the white mask by the collar, but it turned into black smoke and escaped through my fingers.
Not only that. The black smoke quickly began to spread through the armor and throughout the body.
Tiroling!
[The ‘Stamp of Destruction’ will be engraved on you!]
[The title’s effect will nullify the ‘Stamp of Destruction’!]
“The Brand of Destruction definitely does not work on you.”
The stigma of destruction!
X was able to ignore the stigma of destruction with the effect of the Seeker of the Old Kingdom.
On the one hand, I feel fortunate, but on the other hand, I can’t help but be shocked. X knew that the Brand of Destruction was no ordinary curse.
‘The stigma of destruction is not something that can be unleashed. Runestones are essential if you want to use it on many people, and even if you use it on individuals, there are bound to be gaps.’
However, the White Mask remained unharmed even after using the Brand of Destruction in its self-immolation state. There was no visible gap caused by it. Indeed, it is not an easy situation.
The white mask continues speaking.
“It may be a hassle, but it would be better to nip it in the bud in advance. Especially if you are his successor.”
Unlike before, his voice was full of life.
Gourmet King In any case, whether it was an enemy or an ally, there was nothing better than saying that name to arouse one’s temper.
X warned the kid.
“Stay far away.”
“Okay, I get it!”
“Bear stance.”
Even though it was an imperfect alter ego, I couldn’t relax my nerves. Because it was a white mask that did not easily reveal its appearance and intentions. Since it showed its teeth, I had to do my best to fight back.
“!”
I was alert, but the attack started from an unexpected place.
Gurgling! As the silk clothes shook once, the entire body began to shrink.
Tiroling!
[I can feel the pressure that cannot be resisted!]
[The equipment was damaged due to the enormous impact!]
The skull guard, which had relatively low durability, was the first to be damaged.
I thought it was some invisible, foreign magic, but I soon realized it. My breathing is
slowly
getting tighter.
‘…I’m adjusting the water pressure.’
The white mask opens its mouth.
“Even with great abilities, you won’t be able to filter it out. The providence of nature rejects mutations. “You will sleep in the lonely depths of the sea, heir of the Gourmet King.”
I was able to be free from the natural environment thanks to the heavenly cooking effect, but this was artificial water pressure, not natural water pressure.
The eyelids close spontaneously due to strong pressure.
‘I never thought being in the sea would be a penalty.’
It was because I blindly believed in the heavenly cooking effect.
[The equipment was damaged due to the enormous impact!]
The body was able to withstand the force amplified by the bear stance, but the equipment could not withstand the water pressure.
Looking at the rapidly decreasing vitality, I could see that the water pressure I was currently feeling was dozens of times higher than the water pressure in the ordinary deep sea.
“Dancing stems.”
But are you going to end up in the ocean like this?
Crumble.
A stem rising from the coral hill supported X’s sinking feet.
Of course, the white mask did not just sit there and watch.
The silk clothes flutter again.
“Disappear.”
“…!”
“In the face of the power of the beginning and the end, little tricks do not work.”
It was a fleeting moment.
A foreign energy covered the dancing stem and instantly evaporated or disappeared.
It was clear that it had a unique ability that seemed to erase space itself.
X gritted his teeth.
‘If I keep going like this, I’m really going to end up in the ocean.’
Because of my heavenly sense of taste, I couldn’t feel the salty taste of sea water, but I also felt like my body was getting heavy from the inside, perhaps because I drank so much water.
In the end, X made a decision.
“Damn, I didn’t want to make this public.”
Even if I made it public, I wanted to use it at a really cool time of my own volition.
But I couldn’t argue over such trivial things when my life was at stake.
X muttered softly.
“Wings of the Phoenix.”
Cheesy!
Even if you have strong water pressure, it is of no use if there is no water.
The flame wings that rose from X’s back unleashed fierce fire with fierce force.
The seawater that was holding X down was just evaporating!
A new type of X burning in the middle of the deep sea.
X, who has been revived as a knight, raises the corners of his mouth.
“Okay, let’s hit and fight until we die.”
The white mask spoke in a voice that had lost its laughter.
“…It’s no different.”
It’s no different from the Gourmet King.
If I had to choose the most difficult nemesis of eons, it would definitely be the Gourmet King.
A man who showed strength in all aspects, unlike the weak race of humans.
But in the end, he was just a mortal. This means that humans are bound to grow old in the face of time.
I knew about the existence of a successor long ago, but it didn’t bother me that much.
Because the plan for my father was already coming to an end. I didn’t think it was something that a successor who wasn’t the Gourmet King could stop it.
“Heir, you far exceeded my expectations.”
But it was a mistake.
The successor had already grown enough to take the place of the Gourmet King.
It was like saying that a mere self-immolation could not handle the burning fire.
“Axis sword method.”
X did not give White Mask a chance to think any further.
Critical hit immunity Overwhelming vitality regeneration! There was no need to worry about defense as long as the Phoenix wings were maintained.
X’s sword evaporated the sea and grazed the hem of the white mask.
Grumbling. The flames were burning black smoke like the battle of the Gourmet King that I saw in my fantasy.
White Mask had to make a decision.
“To surpass the limit in such a short period of time…”
Even with the knowledge accumulated over a long period of time, it was not easy to understand. Even his nemesis, the Gourmet King, devoted himself to training for over a hundred years.
Does this mean that the talent of this successor is hundreds of times greater than that of the Gourmet King?
Suddenly the white mask muttered.
“…You were intentionally hiding your power?”
Starting with the possibility that the Gourmet King stepped down from the throne of his own will rather than due to old age.
There is even a possibility that he was avoiding the fight with other intentions rather than being scared of himself.
All of the possibilities that came to mind at this moment were bad news for White Mask.
“The Axis Act.”
X punched his fist again. The collar of the white mask was in my hand again.
The flames were blocking movement by burning off the black smoke that was trying to escape.
Sighing, X raised the corner of his mouth.
“What are you mumbling about earlier?”
“…I guess I should change direction.”
“What direction are you taking?”
“I will see you soon.”
Now is not the time.
As soon as the white mask finished speaking, the clone began to disintegrate.
You’ve finally grabbed him by the collar, and now he’s backing away? It sounded funny.
X gritted his teeth.
“Even if you can’t do it, you have to spit out the treasure and leave!”
Grumble!
The fire fist was aimed at the conch shell, which was about to disappear along with black smoke.
White Mask looked shocked, but X’s fist had already pierced White Mask’s wrist!
The conch shell was thrown to the back of the deep sea.
“Gotcha!”
The kid who was waiting took the conch shell with his mouth.
Still, there seemed to be no room for the white mask. Seeing it in person, the conch shell must have been a very important item.
“Anyway, was the recovery successful?”
The White Mask has been defeated!
Although it was a self-immolation, there was information obtained. The White Mask is said to be so skilled in magic that it can control water pressure at will.
X rolled his head thoughtfully.
“Because it uses water attribute magic and mutation magic together, the difficulty level won’t be average.”
However, thanks to this, I was able to learn a lesson not to be complacent and believe in heavenly cooking.
Purifying the contaminated rune stones was a planned procedure.
Tiroling!
[The blessing of the rune stone rests upon you!]
‘This is the third rune stone blessing.’
Vitality and mana regeneration increase by 300%. All attribute affinity increases by 10%. Lastly, the destructive power of water attribute magic increases by 15%!
X smiled in satisfaction.
“Why does it feel like savings?”
“Savings? What is it?”
“Hmm, I guess I could say it’s a snack I saved up.”
Since there are several truckloads of rune stones to be purified in the future, there will also be several truckloads of rune stone blessings to be received.
X bowed his head to the figure of Sacredia, who had finished his task and disappeared, and then examined the conch shell.
“ok?”
A treasure of the Sea King and an object coveted by other beings.
Even if I couldn’t do it, I expected it to be legendary. But somehow, information a little different from what I expected came to mind.
-Fragments of a collapsed world 3 (Quest)
These are fragments of a collapsed and collapsed world. We may be able to reveal the secrets of Fate World.
Special Effects: ?
“…A collapsed world?”
I wondered if he was talking about an ancient kingdom that collapsed in one day.
But what’s more important is that this conch shell is a quest item!
The Diary of an Old Kingdom Knight also gave a large-scale linked quest.
With high expectations, X carefully lifted the conch shell.
“This is kind of a cliche.”
The sound of waves made by a conch shell! I thought the quest would begin with the sound of the waves.
However, the expected sound of waves was not heard. Instead, an unexpected notification rang.
Tiroling!
[Access to the deleted memories of the Sea King!]
An earthquake occurred in X’s pupils.
“!”
The fantasy has begun.
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
