NOVEL WEB Chapter 473: Taffy (11)
The most basic element that makes up everything in Arcadia.
water fire wind earth.
These so-called four elements, which are the essence and source of nature itself, were often expressed through beings called spirits.
Breathing life into a dying earth, causing a riot by causing gusts of wind to roam among people... making rain on buds that are just budding, lighting a fire in the hearth of a woman who is about to cook, and so on. The spirits silently play an active role in countless large and small tasks to ensure that this goes smoothly.
It is not an exaggeration to say that this world can exist only because of these spirits, and they had absolute and important tasks and missions, but in fact, the evaluation of them was much lower than expected.
[Those who have spirit affinity to summon and control spirits are extremely rare, but their value is not that high unlike their rarity. Unlike wizards who can use magic of various attributes depending on the situation, most of them can only use one attribute that they have contracted with, and there is no way to compensate for their weaknesses.
] There is a limit to contracting with mid-level spirits, but their combat power is significantly lower than that of knights and wizards with equal talent. In addition, since the spirits sometimes refuse to fight voluntarily, it is extremely exceptional to use these elemental spirits militarily.
] I think it would be better to do In the case of the elemental spirits who rule the earth spirits, they show high efficiency in large-scale civil engineering, and the water spirits...] The
evaluation was made because the level of the elemental spirits that existed in Arcadia so far was mostly low- and intermediate-level. However, since the connection with the spirit realm was completely restored through the resurrection of the World Tree... and through the activities of Choco Paijoa and the Hwarangdan (花郞團) led by him, that perception was changing, albeit very little.
But.....
-Wow.....
-Really... crazy.....
-Oh My God!!!
-Jesus!!! WTF!
At this moment, in front of the moment of the transfer that breaks down all prejudice and common sense about the spirits... no, the power of the spirits, everyone was at a loss for words and only let out moans of astonishment and admiration. Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gung.
The sea roars at high speed.
The vast water, moving against the flow of the general current, split as if someone had cut it with a knife, creating a huge cliff of water.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
A wet, black earth that appeared under the canyon of water hundreds of thousands of meters long. And there, Leviathan's huge body was completely exposed. Alone, as if completely abandoned by the vast ocean.
[Oh, no! This is my territory! This is ridiculous!]
Leviathan screamed as if he was denying this unbelievable reality. And he moved his huge body as if he was trying to somehow get back into his domain, the deep sea, and quickly rushed to the cliff of water, but his efforts were in vain.
Wow.
As if there was a transparent wall, the sea could hardly be entered no matter how much one pushed into it. Towards him who couldn't get into the water despite several attempts, Elim muttered in a low voice as if pitying him.
[Snake of the end, stop your meaningless resistance. Your divinity and trust cannot defeat me. As long as I rejected you, none of the water in Arcadia will allow your existence.]
The Godhead who is the source of all the water in Arcadia and the water itself. Elaim, the water spirit king.
Leviathan felt deeply embarrassed because he was a being with a high rank that could not dare to be surpassed by the level of ruling only the sea, and he knew that fact better than anyone else. and immediately shouted
[How... how can you fully manifest yourself in this world!]
Impossible.
With Leviathan's common sense, none of this made sense.
[A mere human... How can you endure your divinity and even manifest your powers...]
The Elim in front of him right now is an Avatar summoned by other normal dragons and a few elemental spirits. It wasn't. With all of that overwhelming and lofty divinity, Advent revealed his own existence to the world.
Not only did he summon a god to this land, but he had a powerful divinity in his own right, and to manifest such ridiculous power toward himself was something that even the Dragon Lord, the strongest of Arcadia, could not do.
[What the hell is that person...]
Leviathan couldn't speak in deep despair. However, there was no emotion in Elaim's eyes looking down at him. just do what you have to do
[The serpent of the end, there is no need to understand or ask any questions.]
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.
A group of red lights flying from far away.
Looking at it, Elim only muttered with an indescribably bitter smile.
[We just walk the path and endure it according to the given mission and destiny.]
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang.
And a huge explosion began to burst forth from the canyon of water thousands of meters deep.
Once, twice, three times...
After countless explosions, Leviathan was finally able to accept his destiny.
The tragic fate of eventually dying in the powerful firepower created by dozens of special mushroom clouds without completing his mission to bring the end of this world.
* * *
[Leviathan, the tyrant of the great sea and the ruler of the endless sea, has been removed.] [
The catastrophe of the eastern continent has been cleared.]
[All the catastrophes have been removed.]
[Apocalypse project no. A huge disaster sweeping over the continent. Clear.....]
[The energy of the black mist that floods into this world is greatly weakened.]
The overall message that all users hear after clearing all five disasters. And soon, numerous changes began to occur throughout the world of Arcadia.
Koo Goo Goo Goo.
“What is it?”
“Look at that! The sky...! Heaven!”
Arcadia's sky was shattered like a broken window. The mysterious ominous energy and gloomy power of emptiness that surged through the pieces were encroaching all over the world, but the moment this disaster was cleared, some of the sky returned to its original blue appearance as if it had never been.
“Really... is the first apocalypse over...?”
“This absurd scenario...is really cleared...?”
Even if you listen to the message, you can't believe it at all.
However, as soon as they checked the endlessly flowing reward messages and newly acquired titles, they poured out thunderous cheers and began to cheer for this valuable victory they had barely obtained.
“Aaaaaaaaaa! You fucking admins! How does it taste!”
“It’s the end, it’s nabal, and the reward is so sweet! I also really like the title of ‘one who overcame the end’!”
“Please put a little generous contribution! I changed one item this time and it ran out!”
“Kya! This is real high risk high return! The rewards are crazy!”
A situation where everyone was happy and their eyes were turned away from the enormous reward. However, unlike other users, Jaeyoung had a more serious expression than ever before.
“These damn bastards... are you going to come out meanly like this...?”
More than anyone else, Jaeyoung was directly or indirectly involved in clearing all disasters. So it was natural to receive the most reward than anyone else, but he didn't like the reward at all.
[Contribution: 18234646000]
The one who earned a contribution of 18 billion won in this scenario.
As an individual, it was an enormous number that could never be gathered by ordinary means, and in addition to that, all kinds of titles were obtained as rewards, but the most important thing was missing.
“Probability... why not?”
Probability that must be acquired as a breadwinner for wanderers in troubled times.
It was Jae-young who made a truly mythical achievement by protecting Arcadia from destruction, but strangely, not even a single probability came in this time.
Instead.....
[Job perks. Contribution can be exchanged for Probability.]
[Exchange ratio 10:1]
Only Jaeyoung had a window where he could change the earned Contribution into Probability in the name of job perks. And that, too, at an exorbitantly exorbitant exchange rate.
Even if you try to get rid of it, you can only get a probability of 1.8 billion. Of course, 1.8 billion was not a small amount, but considering the amount of probability Jaeyoung used to clear this first apocalypse, it was definitely not a satisfactory level.
“Am I really crazy..... What is the probability that I used it to clear this scenario?”
1.8 billion to catch Declen.
3.2 billion for the 100x experience buff of the Chimera Corps.
Then summon the water spirit king and get 700 million.
It was a very painful loss for Jaeyoung that he could cover only half of the probability in the current situation where he had consumed as much as 5.7 billion won.
“That's why you can't just turn all the contributions into probabilities...”
Jae-young felt that he needed to be a little more careful because he didn't know what crazy situation would happen in the future. That's why he was calculating the remaining probability while frowning in an uncomfortable expression.
“Um..... Roughly 3.5 billion is left, and if it is maxed out, it is 5.3 billion.....”
That time when I was thinking about the future direction in my head. Suddenly, someone appeared inside the Nautilus ship.
[It's the first time we've met face to face like this. The one who decides the fate of this world.]
“...?”
Elaim, the water spirit king, in the form of a noble woman.
Seeing that she, who had not yet returned to the spirit realm, dared to come inside the ship and talk to him, Jaeyoung looked at her with a puzzled expression.
[I've heard a lot about you from other spirit kings. I've been watching your performance through the children, too... but seeing you in person, you're definitely different from others.
Elaim. She was speaking in a very calm and serious tone, but she was more shocked than ever.
It is an achievement that shines brilliantly in countless stories that are unbelievable for
a mere human to have built up .
Jae-Young's status, which is full of tremendous atrocities and feats that even rare heroes and villains who will not be forgotten even after eternity of time has passed, was so enormous that even she, who has the highest level of godhood, was surprised.
“yes....?”
However, Jae-young looks as if he can't understand what she means. To him, Elraim made a strange expression and continued talking quietly.
[There is a message from the World Tree, so I'm here to deliver it. He asked me to deliver it to you.]
“What the hell...?”
[Hmm... It seems a bit frivolous, but I do what she says. ‘Did you decide to destroy all my roots in order to catch a sea snake? Make a decent amount of that goddamn mushroom cloud. I'll go after that bastard first, you damn bastard.']
“.....”
That's right.
Dozens of gigantic explosions shaking the entire world of Arcadia.
It wasn't Leviathan who suffered the most because of that.
