Base Maintenance (1)

citadel of giants.

This place, which was initially set as a base, has grown to a 'medium/large' level since Jinhyuk took over.

It wasn't the protection of the empire or internal factors, it was purely the result of building up the name of Jinhyeok.

and currently.

"Hey. We're finally here."

Jin-hyeok, Cheon Yu-seong, and Elise visited the fortress after a long absence.

Only Teresa was unable to attend the event, as she had requested an urgent call from Europe.

"Hmm. I found myself sooner than I thought. Antrad The skullcap wasn't usually wild."

Cheon Yuseong looked around as if in a strange way.

"huh."

Elise was full of vomit without knowing why.

He didn't seem to like the holiday he spent outside the tower this time.

'Are you still tired of the shaved ice?'

I guess I'll have to leave it alone for a while.

The three men passed through the main gate of the fortress and walked towards the flower garden.

A place with familiar walled walls.

Once upon a time, the memories of fighting frantically here came to mind.

'Still, I'm sorry. It all became a bud for now.'

Because of the presence of the base, other forces will not be able to touch it recklessly.

Even for a full-fledged struggle for power at the upper level, it is absolutely necessary to reinforce the base.

Since the foundation has already been laid, it has a different level of advantage compared to other players.

right then

"Oh, long time no see."

The blonde man at the entrance to the garden smiled brightly.

Abraham.

A Grand Swordmaster belonging to the Empire.

As much as he sided with the emperor during a civil war with the nobles, the status and power that Abraham currently had in the empire was beyond imagination.

Even those who had risen to the rank of dukes were not able to make fun of their mouths in front of them.

And next to him was Penheimer.

"Player Jinhyuk Kang. You have worked very hard to come this far."

"No. I'm really grateful that you took care of this place while I was away."

Jinhyuk also welcomed the two of them warmly.

It's fun to meet the people you used to share with each other again.

"Just like Primary God. We have strengthened the walls and spread out about 23 types of defense magic. At least 5 circles or more.

There are 23 types of 5 circle magic... .

Certainly, that is the highest level of defense for a fortress.

Even within the empire, there were only a handful of castles that were this strong, except for the zodiac.

There was even a white wood tangrasil and a barrier of paradise lost, so there was nothing to lose compared to a large-scale base.

However.

"The people trying to attack here aren't just a bunch of guys."

"You must have been caught up in something else, troublesome. It's a bit scary to see a monster like yours react like that, isn't it?"

Abraham asked with interest.

For him, who has sharpened his sword all his life, meeting many rivals was like a long-cherished dream.

okay. That's why fighters are good.

Even a little bit of stimulation will make your body itch.

"They're from the upper floors. There was some friction while attacking the tower, but I'm grinding my teeth to see if I can see it. It's hard to understand my movement perfectly, so if you're aiming for it, there's a good chance you'll be aiming for this place."

"Hey. The upper classes. Are you saying they're invading this place? It'd be perfect for me to try out the new swordsmanship I've learned this time... No, it's going to be very dangerous."

Abraham wiggled his fingers, as if it was all right.

On the other hand.

Penheimer added a word with a worried face.

"It may become a sea of fire again."

The interior of the empire has just been stabilized, and the war with Moorim has also ended in a truce.

You don't want to blow away the golden age of peace and prosperity you've been looking for for so long with another war.

Of course, the mind understands.

'Because I feel the same way in my country.'

However, as the Tower of Trials progresses, there is no safe place on the floor of the tower.

As the upper layers are liberated, and as the crown gathers into one place, the binding force holding down the 50th floor also weakens.

finally.

Prehistoric beings whose powers were suppressed within the strict constraints of the system. Later, they crawl up to the lower floors of the tower at will.

If that happens, the tower will inevitably turn into a gigantic hell.

Knowing the future, Jinhyuk was slowly preparing the variables for the future.

"Mr Penheimer."

"Yes?"

"Do you believe me?"

" "

a sudden question.

Although it was short, the meaning contained in it was never light.

If someone other than Jinhyeok had asked this question, he would have asked, "How in the world can you tell people to believe in words alone in front of such an important task?"

however.

" I believe in it."

I had no choice but to believe.

The future of an empire only in despair and countless kingdoms.

The person who made me continue through the day when I lost hope and the collapsed Hwanggwon... .

It was none other than Jinhyuk.

When everyone said it was impossible, the hero who made it possible was Jinhyuk in front of him.

"Then, trust me again this time. The Empire won't be swept away by the phone again. I'll stop it from happening."

"I'm sorry. I stopped thinking only about my future and spoke falsely. I forgot for a moment that all this peace was thanks to player Jinhyuk Kang."

"Hahaha! Call me whenever you need me. If you want, me and the knights who follow me will run across the plains to this place, even if it's weak."

With this, even the imperial support was promised.

The detailed reinforcement of the fortress will be done in the spare time while staying in the Empire.

I was planning on staying here for a few more days anyway to entrust the 'Havelian's Soul' to Orun.

"Well then, we'll go. I'll let you hear it one more time before we leave."

"Are you going? You've prepared a banquet in the Imperial Palace, aren't you attending?"

"A banquet?"

"Yes. It is a great honor for us, if you and Elise, who is next to you, will also shine with Cheon Yoo-seong."

"Hmm, thank you for your words... but the banquet..."

It was when Jinhyuk was about to show his euphemistic refusal.

"Nana Nana! Let's go! Banquet!"

Elise, who was constantly vomiting, burned her strong will.

"Elise?"

"I will go. I will definitely go."

"Why are you coming out so aggressively all of a sudden?"

"Well, that's..."

Elise remembered another trump card she kept in her subspace inventory.

[Lost Ancient Empire Imperial Dress]

The dress worn by the last princess of the Felstein Kingdom. The dress, crafted over the years by countless craftsmen, is a gem among precious jewels that even the Dragon covets.

Durability 5,000 / 5,000

Special Effect: Increases charm by +100 when equipped.

I failed outside the tower, but I'm going to have to succeed this time.

Since there are no stupid saints, the odds are even higher.

The pale, unresponsive blue hair didn't seem like an opponent.

"You should do such nonsensical things between yourself."

Cheon Yoosung turned around as if he had lost interest.

However.

"Hmm. It's a pity. I wanted to try sparring with you once this time."

Abraham shrugged his shoulders lightly.

"You wanted to sparring with me?"

"Looks like you can use a sword quite well, I thought it would be a good practice partner."

at that word.

Cheon Yu-seong's footsteps stopped immediately.

"Hey. So. I think I'll be good to use it as a practice partner... Does that mean?"

"Yes. Well. I think so."

"I'll attend that damn banquet or whatever. It'd be better not to drink alcohol anyway. If you don't want to regret losing an arm."

"I look forward to it."

Out of nowhere, a confrontation between the two took place.

this . It seems that I will be forced to attend the banquet.

bang!

"Ouch!"

kwaang!

"Aww! Oh my!"

kwaduk!

"My hand slipped on this. Damn it!"

"You crazy bastard! What will you do if you break down all of your normal kitchen knives!"

In the forge, shouts and screams were mixed together.

Seeing that his voice is higher than hammering, it seems he has come to the right place.

"Hey, I made a mistake, so I'll just give you two silvers. There's no labor cost."

"You sound like 2 silver. Sooner or later, the guards will tell you to arrest me. Wash your neck and wait. Kaak!

A man hurriedly ran outside with a cleaver in two.

"Eying. However, young people these days don't believe in the craftsmanship of artisans... so..."

"You have to trust the person you trust to believe it. I thought it would be destroyed right away, but it's still in business. Orun."

"Hey, how are you?"

Orun's eyebrows curve backwards.

The person you most wanted to meet, but did not want to meet, entered the store.

"Damn heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh

"I wanted you to make a single material into a weapon. It's a pretty high-quality material, so I think it's difficult to handle at my level."

Jinhyuk took out the 'Havelian's Soul' from the subspace inventory.

A long crystal with a blue light radiated out in brilliance.

"Hey, this is..."

An earthquake occurred in Orun's pupil.

Dry saliva runs down your throat.

I had no choice but to do so.

Because such a rare material is not often seen.

In a way, it was inevitable that the instinct of the past as a royal blacksmith was wriggling.

"Is it possible?"

"Go, it's possible. Not possible."

"Why are you so uneasy? There are a lot of complaints out there, too."

"Kuhm! I made a mistake a while ago, but it was because I was handling a cleaver with a cleaver. This rare material will show off my skills.

"It was."

It was still not easy to handle properly, but Balmung was definitely helped by Orun.

Whoops!

"Then, shall we show off our skills in a little while?"

Orun hummed and grabbed the giant hammer in the forge.

"This cool and heavy feeling. It's been a while."

"I haven't told you to do it yet, but I can loosen my hands a little more..."

"Uhrut cha cha cha!"

[Orun activates Lv18 'Blacksmith of the Extinction'!]

huuuuuoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

A golden haze rose along the hammer.

kwaaang!

[Due to poor skill, the enhancement rate of 'Havelian's Soul' has decreased!]

[Remaining: 2]

"Huhu. Indeed, he's not a sloppy guy. Good. It's good. It tastes like this."

How come I'm a little worried

However, Orun's hammer had already soared high again.

kwaaang!

The hammer struck the side of the crystal.

A beautiful flame spread, and the hammer resonated softly.

[Due to an absurd mistake, the enhancement rate of 'Havelian's Soul' has decreased!]

[Remaining count: 1]

Again this is a failure.

"Still, I don't know yet. The last time is the moment when the essence of a blacksmith is revealed! Trust me until the end."

Trust me... .

Of course, you have to believe it.

only.

"Note that."

before the last hammer. Jinhyuk smiled and added.

"If it breaks, this forge will also be broken."

I plan on making it very fine.

To leave no trace of existence in the world.

"Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh..."

A drop of cold sweat ran down Orun's forehead.

He knew better than anyone that those words weren't a joke.

uuung!

The hammer shone much more intensely.

And at that very moment.

"Huh, huh, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

kwaang!

The last hammering exploded.
