# 213
213. The First(1)
El Cid.
The master, named after the legendary Spanish hero, was the first beta tester of Pick Me Up.
He was also the first ranker, the first 7-star holder, and
the first to break through the 80th floor.
And
it was number 1 in the current ranking.
He didn't do much community activity, but he was the one who made me fall in love with Pick Me Up, who was just a light user. In the early days, I only treated pick me up as a simple real game, but my perception changed greatly after meeting him.
[To destroy a place like Muryeon, he will have no choice but to
step up.] I nodded my head at Yurnet's words.
The third place in the rankings is also excellent, but it is far short of comparison to Mu-ryun.
Same for the next sequence. In the end, there was only one reason why Mu-ryun would collapse as long as he didn't attack the mission.
"Do you know him?"
The spirits narrowed their eyes and looked at me.
It was a sight I didn't quite understand.
I guess so.
The first place in the ranking disappeared a year ago in real time.
In Mobius time, it's well over three years. Since I'm only a sub-master of Taone, my time zone doesn't match at all, so my reaction must be suspicious.
"I've heard the name."
"Anyway, I have to deliver this news to the soothsayer of Tacheonhyang."
"What are you trying to tell me?"
"…I can't tell you from here."
It's full of secrets.
I hung the steel sword for practice on the display stand.
[Master, what would you like to do? Just like that, the repair of Bifrost has been completed. Why don't you take this opportunity and stop by Niflheim.]
"…"
At this timing.
I frowned.
I don't know if it was the time when I had time to spare after finishing the raid on the 50th floor, but now it was a busy time.
'He bothers me here and there.'
[…Master.]
"Okay. You can go."
You should be able to make time for a day or two.
[Then, I will prepare.]
With a slightly brighter voice, Yurnet cut off the communication.
I said to the spirit who was looking at me with eager eyes.
"He said he wanted to go to Niflheim."
"Yes. It doesn't matter if it takes a few days. I…"
"I'll send it right away today."
Wi-ryeong opened her eyes wide.
"What do you mean?"
"I told you I'm in a relationship. I'll pick you up at dawn, so get ready."
"Ji, are you serious!"
The ghost rushed at me and squeezed my hand tightly.
Even the eyebrows were wet.
"Thank you so much! I will never forget this favor. I will definitely be in trouble!"
"Okay, let go of your hand. Stay calm in your room. Don't leak anywhere else."
"Okay! I'll lie quietly, like a dead mouse, like a corpse!"
"…you don't have to."
The soul hurriedly ran out of the training center regardless of what I said or not.
Left alone, I sighed.
'It would have been nice if he had stayed quiet.'
El Cid's territory, Hwanggeumhyang, was strong enough that even Niflheim had to prepare for an all-out war.
I don't know the exact history, but if it's the ability of the guy I know, it would have grown terrifyingly in the meantime. If there was a conflict between the two, I could no longer be in Taoneer. You'll have to direct it yourself.
I remembered the play of the No. 1 ranking.
There were no videos or strategy articles, but I got to see his play by chance.
'I knew.'
After becoming a hero and falling here, I now know what I didn't know then.
He knew right away that the heroes of Pick Me Up were alive.
'The time El Cid went into hiding and the time he gained 7 stars are similar.'
Perhaps his disappearance has to do with the Seven Stars.
Bona Mana will stand in reverse.
'Then it's not the master who rules the place right now, but the hero?'
I don't know how far there.
The 7-star promotion condition is the fusion of a hero and a master, but it's not 100% certain.
You have to go to Niflheim to find out how Muryeon was destroyed, what El Cid did, and what the spirits have to say to us.
That night I asked Issel to manipulate the log.
It said to delete the log that Niflheim's Airship was dispatched and if it doesn't come back by tomorrow, make it look like I and the spirits went to the dungeon that day. Issel readily accepted my request, and at dawn, Niflheim's small airship secretly called at Taoneer.
"What is your position in Tacheonhyang? To hear that a fly ship comes right away to your words. It's not unusual."
On the airship heading to Niflheim, the spirit spoke up.
The name had also changed before I knew it.
"…"
I shut my mouth.
You'll find out anyway, but I didn't want to reveal my identity here.
The airship sent by Yurnet must have been a high-speed model, and it arrived at the place where lightning and brimstone struck in less than an hour.
It was Niflheim.
Whoops.
A dimensional vortex began to surround the airship.
And when the light went out, what greeted me was not the view of the hangar, but the view of the 13th floor of Niflheim, where five different areas were spread out.
Cheeky.
The airship that sent the memorial service with me slid downstairs with a small mechanical sound.
"I'm sorry for the late dawn. I've been waiting for you."
Yurnet bowed deeply to me.
I shook my head.
"It's okay. I called because I needed it."
"Anyway, I've reserved a place for you. Please follow me."
"…?"
The ghost tilted his head.
I spoke to the ghost who was not aware of the situation.
"Follow me."
The place Yurnet led me to was a jet-black castle in the middle of the 13th floor.
A place prepared for me to return someday. There, in the hall on the first floor, there was a large conference table.
"You can sit here."
Yurnet pulled the chair of the head of the table.
Then he patted the cushion as if telling me to sit down.
"…"
Well, not once or twice.
I sighed and put my ass on it.
"Wait, isn't that where Moonju sits? How can you…"
"Please refrain from talking. This is Loki, the owner of Niflheim and the leader of the Munmu and the White House."
"what?"
The spirit's expression changed every moment.
From embarrassment to embarrassment. from bewilderment to astonishment.
"You… are you making fun of me?"
"It can't be. This is the ruler of Fallen Hyang you've been looking for."
Yurnet smiled.
I clicked my tongue. Do I have to play with it like that?
"However, the author is from a place called Taoni…"
"There is a special circumstance there. Wei Gong."
A cold-looking young man appeared from the corridor on the left side of the hall.
Lidigion, ranked third.
As we were in a hurry, it seems that only two people were invited at one party.
"You… are you Gong Li!"
"Greetings later. Master's presence."
Lydegion looked at me and knelt down.
"See you again Master."
"Don't be so rigid. It'll grow chicken on your skin."
Ridigion, who clearly ignored my words, stood up in moderation.
Wi-ryeong, who looked at me and Lidigion, continued with a dismayed expression.
"The person I'm looking for uses a red age sword…"
"That person is the head of Tacheonhyang."
The ghost's mouth opened.
Yurnet whispered in my ear.
"Master, there is a special bond between Lidigion and Wuren."
"I know even if you don't say anything."
I once dispatched Ridigion to Muyeon for about three months.
The purpose, of course, was to elevate Ridigion's weapon technology to a higher level.
Wi-ryeong, who was looking at me in awe, bit her lip and said,
"The head of Tacheonhyang, I, the martial warrior Nanwi-ryeong, have a request!"
The ghost knelt down on me.
"Subdue the man who violated the peace agreement and slaughtered the martial artist!"
Wiryeong hit his forehead on the ground.
He hit so hard that a thud echoed through the hall.
"…"
I was expecting that.
"If he is left alone, it will be a great disaster for the kingdom of heaven, no, even for the world of 3,000 daecheon. I beg you, the head lord, subdue him and raise the spirit of the whole of daecheon!"
"Subjugation."
Yurnet muttered.
It was a strangely emotionless voice.
"Do you mean to ask us to erase the current ranking?"
"That's right. He preemptively attacked our martial arts without any announcement and slaughtered civilians. The cruelty is unmatched…" "That's
interesting."
Yurnet took a step forward.
His face was frozen cold.
"I tell you."
Lidigion blocked Yurnet.
"Raise your head, Wee Ball."
The spirit lifted its head.
The white forehead was dyed red.
"Tell me the circumstances. What happened."
"Ah, okay."
Wi-ryeong stuttered, but explained what happened when the martial arts were destroyed.
I was polishing my weapon skills in the auditorium with my subordinates when there was a really loud noise and people wearing suspicious clothes broke in. Danzaheum, the trainee, was killed by the captain there, and countless martial artists were slaughtered.
"…"
Ridigion closed her eyes.
"It's a pity that Lyeonju died. He was a great person."
"That's right. They…!"
"master."
Lydigion turned to me.
I nodded.
"I'm sorry, but we can't help Mu-Ryeon."
"Uh, why?"
"It's true that Ta Chun-hyang and Mu-ryeon had a relationship. I learned a lot from them too. But you can't get involved in things you don't know. Isn't that right, Duke Wei?"
"He's…!"
"What Gong Wei saw was suspicious people coming in and killing Lianzhu and slaughtering martial artists. That's all."
Lydegion continued.
"If it's the Golden Land, it's a place we can't easily see. Is the above ball asking us to put everything in order to resolve its resentment?"
"…"
"For now, settle your head."
"Gong Li, how could you say such a thing! How much Prince Lee…!"
"Nissled."
Yurnet spat out briefly, and a black model fell from the ceiling. "
Take him to the room."
"Yes."
The hall
fell silent.
"Master,"
Yurnet said,
"…I'm thinking about it."
There is nothing wrong with Ridigion's words
.
If Niflheim was also involved, I would have to do something, but I couldn't figure out the situation right now.
First of all, the biggest question was,
'Muryeon and Dorado have different servers.'
They were 3 servers and 4 servers, respectively.
Unless it was a periodic server transcendence event, in principle, it was impossible to interact with other server users
.
Not too long ago, the game was known for having no bugs and good servers, but in the meantime, evaluations have changed, and
various communities have made a fuss about saying it's a mess.
'What are you thinking?'
Elcid is not a PVP user.
He was similar to me, or rather, a true attacker who was much worse than me.
Could it be
that Mu-Ryeon started a fight first? That's
strange too.
Any normal guy would leave it to Yurnet and move on, but this time he couldn't.
At least he had to know what had happened. Depending on the circumstances, El Cid might tamper with Niflheim.
"Yurnet."
"Yes, once. I'll investigate."
Yurnet bowed her head to me and disappeared to the back of the hall.
Only me and Lidigion were left in the hall.
"…"
Ridigion seemed to be thinking deeply about something
. It could be, or he may be thinking of the Danjaheum, who
said he had a relationship with the priest. It changed drastically before and after being dispatched. He was already strong enough before that. The point I felt that the hero named Ridigion was completed was after he returned from martial training
. Did you say that you got the title in martial arts?'
Perhaps the duration of my stay in Niflheim was not more than a day or two, and
I quietly left, leaving Ridigion alone.
