Chapter 20 Developers are people too! person! (1)

Pagonic acid.

To humans, it’s just a high mountain rich in iron ore.

But deep inside, in a hidden place, there were a lot of artifacts that didn’t seem to have anything to do with the mine.

[This is an incomprehensible language. Decoding failed.]

[Those who study the ancient language may be able to interpret this language.] [

A holy energy surrounds the body.] [

Health and mana recovery speed is greatly increased.]

[A closer examination of the ruins is necessary. It is necessary.]

[The quest ‘Hidden Ruins’ has been created.]

The hidden place you came in because of Tan. It was clear that this place, full of holy energy, would bring a lot of attention even if it was known to the world. The created quest also said to immediately run to the Holy Church of the Territory and report the discovery.

“hey! what are you doing, master? Shall we open this soon?”

However, Jaeyoung had no intention of carrying out the quest at all. Especially since I had heard Tan explain in detail what this place was like, there was no need to do that. because? The value of this place far exceeded the level that Baron Mikhail could compensate for. Besides, considering what Jaeyoung would do from now on, this place had to remain a place no one knew.

What Tan struggled to open was none other than the sarcophagus. A pure white sarcophagus made of pure marble. Jaeyoung and Tan struggled to push the sarcophagus on the altar.

“Turn it off”

“Strength! master! Give me more power!”

“I’m giving it all!”

The sarcophagus that he is pushing with force until his face turns red. However, there was no way that a 100% pure stone would be pushed by one human and one imp(?).

“Ooooh! Even if I only had the main body, this is just dog shit!”

Tan screamed in regret and flapped his wings. However, with its tiny body, the sarcophagus did not budge no matter how much it was pushed.

“Huh… I can’t do this, can I?”

Jaeyoung, who ran out of stamina, sat down on the floor and said. Then Tan with a dejected expression muttered to himself.

“It’s nonsense…. How did I get into this place, and I’m so engrossed in the weight of a stone rather than a divine barrier or seal…

” Tan sat down and was frustrated. Judging from the fact that she had been extremely happy to have entered this altar until now, she must have felt quite deprived.

“By the way, I have a question about Tan.”

“what.”

Looking at Tan, who was sitting there without looking back, Jaeyoung asked the question he wanted to ask earlier.

“This Pagon Mountain… Didn’t I say that this place, to be precise, makes channeling with the heavens possible?”

channeling.

The point where beings from other celestial realms descend directly to Arcadia and serve as a relay, for example, to help them exert their power. This Pagon Mountain was a place that served as a link between the heavens and this place. And that means…

“Then, by any chance, there is a place that is responsible for channeling with the Demon World?”

flinch.

Tan instantly responded to that question. The look in his eyes as if he had secretly left school and played games in the PC room without his mother’s knowledge, and then got caught in his mother’s guiding newspaper. He looked at Jaejoong with those same eyes and asked.

“Why do you ask…?”

“No, it just came to my mind, but if there is a place like this in the heaven world, then the demon world should have something like this too. I wish there was such a place. Is there really such a place?”

A question I asked out of pure curiosity. But at that question, Tan’s eyes rolled. It seemed like he was contemplating how to answer this.

“Ah, before thinking about such a strange thing, think about how to open this lid quickly? How long will you be here! It’s an annoying space to even breathe!”

After thinking about it for a while, Tan changes the topic and throws out his annoyance. It seemed quite burdensome to Tan, perhaps because it was a place filled with divine energy. Judging from the smoke rising around her body from earlier, it seemed like it would spontaneously ignite in just a little while.

“Ah Okay. hang on. I can’t call someone else and how can I open this…..”

Thoughts flashed through my mind for a moment. However, the method was quite vicious, so Jae-young asked Tan, even though the conscience in his heart was screaming, ‘That’s a bad thing!’

“Hey Tan. There’s something really important in here, right?”

“Oh, yes!”

At Tan’s confirmation, Jaeyoung nodded, suppressed the faintly blooming conscience in her heart, and rose from her seat.

“okay. Then there is nothing you can do.”

“what?”

At Tan’s question, Jaeyoung took out an item from her inventory.

[You have equipped the Demon Cave Destroyer.]

A familiar heavy feeling. In Jaeyoung’s hands, a sturdy and powerful pickaxe, a masterpiece from the demon realm that would never break, was shining with its pointed blade shining.

“You… can’t you…?”

When Jaeyoung took out the pickaxe, Tan’s eyes widened. As if he, the devil himself, hadn’t thought of it that far, his expression of surprise was evident, but Jaeyoung spoke to Tan as if it were natural.

“If there is a door that won’t open, it won’t open no matter how hard you try. In that case, the answer is…”

Quaang.

A pickaxe that slashed down with all its might. With the addition of the correction value of his mining skill, which had already reached A rank, his hand movements had reached full maturity. Then, his pickaxe began to pierce the lid of the sarcophagus and create a crack around it.

“Breaking is the answer.”

Kwaang Kwaang Kwaang-

That’s how Jaeyoung’s pickaxing started. Looking at the shards of pure white marble falling from the pickaxe and the sarcophagus shattering miserably, Tan thought to himself.

‘As expected, humans are worse than devils…’ A

holy place that angels regard as sacred. As he witnessed the scene of destruction being committed there, Tan seriously pondered who was more like the devil.

* * *

[A phenomenal achievement. The unknown ancient artifact has been completely destroyed.]

[The celestial beings are astonished at the player’s actions.] [

The friendship with the celestial world has declined to the worst level.]

[It is recommended to be careful not to be noticed by the divine beings. .]

[The title Artifact Destroyer has been obtained.]

Patter.

Jaeyoung’s mysterious pickaxe. It stopped only after the sarcophagus in front of me was completely destroyed.

“Huh… After picking a pickaxe once, the whole body feels refreshed.”

Jaeyoung put down the pickaxe while wiping the sweat from his brow and asked Tan, who was looking at him with strange eyes.

“what? why?”

“Uh… no nothing.”

At the bland reaction, Jaeyoung gave a questioning glance for a moment, then began to dig through the fragments of the sarcophagus and examine what was inside.

“What is this?”

Inside the sarcophagus was a body. After so long, only bones remained, but it was decorated with various expensive-looking items, probably because he was a fairly important person.

“why?”

“Hey, if you have something like this, you should tell me in advance. Why would you break someone’s grave? I’m not being shameless.”

No matter how much I thought about the current situation, Tan was at fault for not telling me properly and saying that there was something important. No matter how much it’s a game, the act of breaking the coffin of someone who is sleeping peacefully is probably a barbaric act that even if you ask everyone, they’ll say, ‘Wow. However, Tan looked at Jaeyoung with an absurd look.

“No, of course it’s a coffin, but isn’t it natural that there is a body inside?”

“…..”

“That’s why I thought you were such a bad guy. He did nothing wrong with other people I’ve seen. amazing.”

Tan raises his thumb and praises him for being great. Contemplating whether he should like this or not, Jaeyoung sighed. Someone’s coffin that has already been shattered. Well, it wasn’t something that could be glued together piece by piece, so there was no need to try to pick up spilled water.

“Anyway…so what’s the important thing here?”

“Oh that? The necklace that skeleton has!”

An antique necklace placed on the skull’s chest. Compared to the other faded relics, it was still emitting a soft light and full of sacredness, probably passing the flow of time.

“…You want me to bring that?”

“then? Can I touch something like that? Is it the pinnacle of divinity?”

Tan waved his hands as if he couldn’t even touch them. Jaeyoung looked at him for a moment, then sighed and pulled the necklace on the skull’s chest. And when I pulled it lightly, I heard a strange bursting sound.

It

must have been hung around the neck when the corpse was buried. When Jaeyoung pulled the necklace, the neckbone of the already weakened skeleton crumbled and the necklace fell off. And the head of a skeleton rolling out of the sarcophagus. Tan and Jaeyoung stared blankly at it without saying anything. And after a moment of silence, Tan muttered.

“Wow …. Real dog …..

”

Tan covered his mouth with both hands at Jaeyoung’s fierce eyes. However, looking at Tan who was trying to say something with his eyes, Jaeyoung held his head in pain.

For some reason, it was Jae-young who felt like he was getting more and more corrupted when he was with this devil.

* * *

Korea Branch of Arcadia Co., Ltd. President Lee Mi-yeon frowned as she listened to Executive Director Myung-han Kwon’s report.

“Contaminated mythical quest hidden in Pagon Mountain… The contaminated quest is the Second Holy Demon War. There are related quests… 693?”

“That’s right.”

“Whew… Strangely, whenever I hear a report from the executive director, it seems like there is only bad news. Isn’t it?”

It is a strange situation where problems arise from the beginning of the opening to the extent of being strange. Because of that, the eyes looking at the executive director Lee Mi-yeon, who was recommended by the president, could not be so kind.

“Why the hell did you hide an important mythical quest in a place like that?”

At the words of President Lee Mi-yeon, Executive Director Kwon Myung-han explained as if he was unfair.

“This is not a quest planned by us. Even before our branch was established, the head office had already completed planning, development, and application, and it happened because they didn’t inform us in advance…” ”

So what do you want to say?”

“…..”

Although it is a quest that they did not prepare or plan, it is one of the important contents of the second continent of Arcadia, which is in charge of the Korean branch. No matter what excuses he made, he couldn’t justify the responsibility for not properly managing a mythical quest, so CEO Lee Mi-yeon kept his mouth shut.

“Haa…. Other countries are playing without any problems, but only Korea keeps doing this…..”

CEO Lee Mi-yeon murmurs with a sigh of frustration. Managing Director Kwon Myeong-han, who had noticed her, carefully brought up the story.

“I… boss Arcadia is a perfect and bug-free system, but… I don’t understand the circumstances of this case at all.”

“What do you mean?”

“That’s… There are only 89 quests that precede the arrival of the now contaminated quest area, and the first quest clue starts from a ruin hidden in an area 600km away from Pagon Mountain. No matter how lucky you are, it is impossible to arrive at the area by solving all the quests normally.”

A situation where you suddenly entered an important quest location while ignoring the preceding quest. There were only two cases where this happened. There was an error or hole in the system, or the player used an illegal method.

“Hmm… that sounds strange even to me, right?”

“Yes? You should look into this.”

In response to President Lee Mi-yeon’s response, Executive Director Kwon Myung-han continued to persuade her with a happy face. He spoke passionately, saying that a thorough investigation into this case should be carried out and immediate sanctions should be taken if problems are discovered. But he didn’t know. That all of this is a problem that has arisen due to a thoroughly fair method.
