Chapter 360
“It is not impossible. I don’t know if the golden mirror is real, but the nucleus that mediates the golden palace is sure to exist. Otherwise, the Golden Palace would not be able to move the nations while maintaining a certain range.”
“Are you going to break it?”
“Even if you can’t do it, you should at least show the ability to do so. Only then will you come to us seriously.”
The regressor’s eyes were sincere. Hilde stood there dumbfounded, with a dazed face like a honey-fed mute.
‘It’s strange~? I’m an apostle trying to keep my mission, but don’t you take care of my life? Was ‘my’ prediction wrong? He drank the Golden Goblet. What’s happening ‘inside’ the Golden Palace… can’t even be seen with foreknowledge?’
Even if you die, you will come back. So they say you can hit it with all your might without worrying about anything. The regressor is right.
But that’s the story of a regressor. I can’t. No matter how much the world turns, you can’t put your head in a place where you will surely die. Even if I fight the golden mirror, I can’t participate.
In case of any misunderstanding, let us tell you in advance.
“Hey, Shay. I hate to come this far and step out, but I have to say this. Can I not fight the golden mirror?”
“uh?”
‘why? But colleagues… Ah. That’s right. That won’t help. Rather, I have to use my own hands to save it, so it’s a loss to take it.’
yes. What am I going to do to hold on to your ankles, even if I am there?
The regressor, suppressing the overflowing disappointment with reason, replied as if nothing had happened.
“of course. I didn’t even expect it.”
“do not misunderstand. It’s true that my life is precious. But apart from that, I can’t do any damage to the golden mirror as I rely on my catching skills.”
“know. I need one in the back anyway. Take Jannokhoeju and Aji and step back for a while.”
It is an accurate judgment. If it hadn’t been for the golden mirror, I would have watched the fight unconcernedly picking corn from behind. With one hand, stroking her hair.
But it’s hard for me to miss this opportunity either.
If not a regressor, who would think of putting a knife in front of the golden mirror’s neck? The stronger one has power and status, the more one tends to buy one’s body. Hwanggeumgyeong, a being similar to a natural phenomenon, even more difficult for the opponent to feel a sense of peace. Only a regressor is a madman who can endure such a suicidal charge.
If I am alone, I can never approach the essence of the golden mirror. so i won’t try I can’t do it and I’ll die if I do.
However, if the regressor creates a gap… a possibility arises. The possibility of approaching the essence of the golden sutra and knowing what the king has become.
“But if it’s not a suicide attacker, I might be able to help a little.”
Surprisingly, the regressor blinked wide. No, there is no answer because I am eager to help. You can’t hang your head while helping.
“You mean help? answer.”
“The answer is, how do you help?”
“Do you remember? The thing I caught Jizan in the basement of the abyss.”
“I do remember… Ah!”
I nodded and answered.
“I am not properly recognized by Yupum. Even if you get it, you don’t have the power to change the world. But it is possible if all you have to do is steal it.”
I am the human king. Human technology, human knowledge, and human weapons. Even human beliefs. It deals with anything that humans have.
Even though I lost my power and took away all of that, I couldn’t take away the possibility of approaching it. just lack of energy. only power runs There is nothing impossible for me, even if I cannot reach it due to the various conditions that entangle me. If you can do it, I can do it too. It will be much smaller than the original though.
Same goes for drinking. If it comes from humans, then I too…
“If Mr. Shay draws attention. I’ll sneak in and steal the center of the Golden Palace. That might be possible.”
“Do you know what the center of the Golden Palace is?”
“It is roughly expected. It’s just my guess, but if there is a core of the golden palace, that’s the only one.”
The golden bell hanging from the waist of the young Golden Kyung. In a world where brass bells were transformed into alchemy, gold was the first change since alchemy was discovered.
The Demon God’s keepsake must be the golden bell. The first is unique until the next appears. Therefore, the first one has the value of representing the whole.
“Let’s try pickpocketing.”
The topic came to the Seungnyangs.
The Golden Sutra can make anything, but it doesn’t make anything. His alchemy was used only for the gold country, and all the works spread across the nations are just grave goods buried with the gold country. The seungnyang who live by rummaging through the grave often pick up and eat the crumbs with gratitude.
At that time, the golden mirror prepared for war.
War cannot be fought without money, but war cannot be waged without money. Weapons, supplies, war horses, carts, etc. everything is money The items that Hwanggeumgyeong usually made were also valuable, but they could not be compared to the special warfare.
Even the seungnyang, who were frightened at the word to prepare for war at first, turned a blind eye when they saw the money pouring in front of them.
“Worth a war?”
“Hey. what’s this? Even if I steal one and sell it to another country, I can spend 10 years reveling!”
“Sell? haha! These days, they say they pay full price for what wanderers sell? It’s good if you don’t get stabbed and go after it.”
There is a reason why the lord of the heat storm wanted a war. War makes nations rich. Not because the war is won, but because the Golden Goblet creates weapons.
Money has properties similar to river water. Both ride the mighty current and drive all kinds of floats. Equipment made by the Golden Circle is a property in itself. The seungnyangs who were angry with him gather, and the seungnyangs who were about to leave continue to stay. The news will flow through the wanderers and spread throughout the nations, and the wolves will naturally gather in groups and form an army.
legion of nations. The moment when the great journey is about to begin.
“Hey hey! excuse me!”
“Why are you making such a big fuss… Huh?”
A huge snake slithered across the ground as if announcing the start of a war.
It was a large snake that seemed to have been poisoned with the earth. The body diameter alone exceeds 3m, and the length is unfathomable. The soil is cracked like scales and the corn grows like a beard. The earth snake moved forward, shaking the ground.
It is clearly a monster that deviate from reason. There is a snake the size of a house in the Great Forest to the south, but at least it must be made of blood and flesh. On the other hand, it is artificial.
“It’s a monster snake! Run away!”
“It’s a snake someone made! whoever!”
Seungnyang, who was trying to run away, suddenly stopped.
“for a moment. A snake made of earth? Isn’t that a work made by the golden mirror?”
“Because there is no one other than the golden mirror who can create such a monster.”
“So you’re on our side? Do you have any pilots?”
It was a valid hypothesis. The country would have thought similarly. The wildcats fearlessly circled around the earth snake. Since the dirt snake did not pay any attention to them, they were convinced that the dirt snake was their ally and withdrew their attention.
Unfortunately, their confidence was misplaced. This earth snake was made with earth magic, not alchemy.
The regressor thought with the Jizan stuck in the crown of the earth snake.
‘that’s right. I got Jizan’s approval in this episode. You don’t have to hold it like a knife and wield it. Like Jiseon in the previous episode, you can fight by applying Earth Art.’
Of course, Jiseon won’t do it. The regressor did not learn geography separately, and did not have enough understanding of the stratum and earth flow. This earth snake recalled the appearance of Ji-seon in the previous episode and only imitated it, but it would not be as powerful as Ji-seon.
However, the mass of a 3m diameter soil is real. Even if you stick it somewhere, you can produce the expected effect.
‘…but still. If you go openly and confidently, you won’t be suspicious, so just go. What kind of scam have you been playing so strong-hearted? Can I have multiple lives?’
what. You only have one life, so you chose the best move. If you fight every human you meet as a half-poon earth snake, you will do well. It’s better to pretend to be the authority of the golden mirror and go calmly.
Of course, this earth snake can be attacked. Then, since the opponent is the golden spectacle, you can prepare for battle at that time. how comfortable
this is the king It’s strange to take an apostle for nothing. If the goal is to go to Hwang Geum-gyeong, let’s go and see.
It was time for me to praise myself.
“…why did you bring me here?”
Peru asked in my direction.
Peru’s place among us now was ambiguous. Not a hostage, not an ally. It’s not particularly restrained, and it’s not very vigilant. I’d rather expect a little more.
It seems that I am curious about myself. I had a little bit of luck
“Hey, I have no malice, so please listen and don’t be offended.”
“…already worst. It couldn’t be more obnoxious.”
“That’s good for you! I will speak without hesitation!”
‘…For some reason, he’s trying to annoy me.’
Said it couldn’t be more unpleasant. Well, emotions become unbelievable the moment they are spoken.
I kindly explained.
“Peru will be on the side of the golden circle, but it is good for us. Peru can’t use its power against us anyway, right? Because if Peru uses its ability, the golden palace made of alchemy will collapse.”
Elric told Peru that he shouldn’t use his strength. Even if you can’t read my thoughts, the reason is obvious. Because of Peru’s ability. The power to deny alchemy is a perfect counter to the Golden Sutra.
Well, I don’t think I can beat the golden mirror, which uses even the ground as an alchemy material… but anyway, it’s clear that it’s a very difficult opponent.
“However, the other side knows that too. That’s why you won’t be able to use a force big enough to get involved in Peru.”
“…I don’t care about my life.”
“no. It’s not Peru’s life that matters, it’s its abilities. If you get caught up in it and Peru uses its abilities, it will be really difficult.”
Peru will try not to use its abilities even if it is in danger of dying, but will the golden mirror know that? Fear comes from the unknown. The Golden Palace, not knowing Peru’s heart, will be very wary of Peru.
Well, in fact, it’s good that you don’t have to be vigilant. In the best case, the Peruvian survival instinct reacts at will after attacking at will. Then, whether we like it or not, Peru will eventually become our ally.
“Hey. The heart of Peru is on our side anyway! very reassuring! I am proud of myself for discovering and embracing Peru in the first place!”
“…I will cancel what I said. It can get even more unpleasant.”
of course. There is always more bottom at the bottom. It’s a pity that it’s a crush on me, but…
I can’t help it. Because I can’t reveal the real reason.
Peru is also a launching pad for indigenous horses. In order for me to use Peru’s unique magic, I must take it.
In order to reach the core of the Golden Jing, it is necessary to break through the last resistance at the last moment. Perhaps that resistance was also made of alchemy. Peru’s unique magic will be my trump card.
good. A perfect plan. For a while I giggled inwardly.
coogu palace. The snake swayed loudly. We, who had been holding our breath in the snake’s mouth, rolled over at the impact. I held my breath and turned my attention to the outside, using the corn stuck inside as a handle.
Homunculi with wings are gathering around the earth snake. It is the Juggernaut of the Golden Journey and the equipment solvent that provides momentum with the unique magic of the Thermal Explosion Master. The heat-blast master, who flew in flames, spoke to the regressor.
“If I saved my life, I would run away. Did you come here on your own because you wanted to die?”
Even in the face of a dead person, the regressor remained calm.
“I mean. I tried to say nice words, but they attack me all the time? Who knows that you can’t fight because you have no strength?”
The heat-loving lord shook his head.
“…that’s strange. It is interpreted as saying that I want to fight.”
“Because it’s a homunculus, you can’t even understand words? Do you know how to interpret that?”
The regressor who shouted sharply grabbed Jizan stuck in the crown and pushed it forward.
The earth, which everyone believes to be solid, actually moves, and its flow resembles a liquid when viewed macroscopically. Earth Sorcery, which realized its authority, moves soil and rocks according to its will. great but… iffy.
Unlike alchemy, the only way to use Earthskill in real life is to dig a pit, and you can do it without using Earthskill. Among the shovel and Earthskill, the easier to prepare is the former.
It is obviously mysterious and practical, but because it is not a very precious ability, Earth Sorcery was not well passed down except for the people of the Mother Goddess.
rather fortunate
The fact that Earth Sorcery is useful enough to harm humans was kept secret in the silence of the Mother Goddess.
