Chapter 217: Black Moon

Why did a map suddenly drop?

Soo Hyuk tilted his head.

‘A Chimera?’

It was not dropped by a user.

If it were dropped by a user, it would not have appeared in the drop window.

The map was obviously dropped by a Chimera.

‘I did not even hunt a boss.’

The problem was that there was no boss Chimera.

A normal Chimera played the drums.

‘It’s strange.’

Soo Hyuk clicked OK to acquire the item.

And he opened the inventory and checked the item information of the ‘Map with ???’.

(Map with ???[Hero])

It is a map with???

‘What?’

Even after checking the item information, nothing new was known.

Soo Hyuk took out a map from his inventory and unfolded it with a puzzled look.

ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm ‘Cashew?’

After checking the map, Soo-hyuk tilted his head and smiled.

It was a map of Cashew. And a red dot was drawn on the map.

He does not know what the ??? is, but the red dot is probably where the ??? is.

‘It’s near the warp gate…’

The location of the red dot was not far from the warp gate.

‘I’ll have to go after it.’

He did not know what it was, but he could go to it. Then he may be able to find out what it is.

Soo Hyuk put the map in his inventory.

Then moved in search of the remaining Chimeras.

minutes later.

[You have defeated all Chimeras in the village ‘Cashew’.]

[You have completed the special quest ‘The Chimera Who Controlled the Cashew’.]

[Items are acquired according to the level of contribution.]

[You have earned the most contribution.]

[Obtained the Behind the Scenes Token.]

He was able to kill all the Chimeras in Cashew.

Although Soo Hyuk did not hunt all the Chimeras alone, he was able to obtain the token by killing more than half of them.

Soo Hyuk went to the library while looking at the message.

‘Sigh’

Soo Hyuk sighed inwardly and went inside the library.

He thought as he looked at the remaining books and bookshelves in a relatively fine state.

‘I can’t take it.’

If he left it like this, the remaining poison would destroy the books.

But he could not take the books. Because they could not be obtained.

‘No, but the library is destroyed, isn’t it?’

Soo Hyuk, thinking that he might be able to obtain books because the library was destroyed, approached the bookshelf with a hopeful expression.

Then he picked up the book and put it in his inventory.

[Unable to acquire.]

As soon as he put it in my inventory, the book popped out with a message.

It failed.

‘I should hurry.’

Soo Hyuk picked up a book that had fallen to the ground, put it back in its original place, and left the library.

He still had 14 villages left to go to.

They may be under attack like Cashew.

Soo Hyuk headed to the Warp Gate and opened his inventory.

And he took out the “Map with ???” he had just acquired and unfolded it.

‘I’ll stop by and then go.’

It was on his way anyway.

After arriving at the Warp Gate, Soo Hyuk follows the map to the red dot.

‘An inn?’

The red dot was pointing to an inn.

An inn called Traveler’s Shelter.

‘What is here?’

What is in the inn? What could have caused the Chimera to have a map pointing to the inn?

After thinking for a moment, Soo Hyuk entered the inn.

Is it because of Chimeras?

There was not a single person in the inn.

‘Nothing is popping up.’

After looking around, Soo Hyuk thought. The map has not been updated and a quest has not been created.

Nothing happened.

‘It’s clear that there is something.’

Soo Hyuk came out of the inn with a slightly sad expression on his face.

He was sure there was something, but he could not spend the time looking for it without knowing what it was.

Soo Hyuk had a lot of things to do, so he could not waste time.

Excluding Cashew, there were 14 villages to go to.

Only 14 villages with libraries.

There were many more places to go. After leaving the inn, Soo Hyuk headed to the Warp Gate.

th floor of the Central Tower.

Vice Lord Koel was unable to say anything when he saw the token that Pavian had brought.

‘This…’

Koel knew the pattern engraved on the token very well.

‘The pattern of the Black Moon.’

It was an unidentified group that was disturbing the world when the tower was built in the past.

A group that was destroyed by Archmage Lapis and disappeared into the shadows.

The pattern on the token was the symbol of that Black Moon.

“Is this right?”

Pavian asked.

“Yes, it is the pattern of the Black Moon.”

Koel nodded his head.

“Are they the descendants of those guys?”

Pavian asked again.

“It has been 200 years already.”

It has been 200 years since the current tower was built by Lapis and Black Moon was destroyed and then disappeared.

“I think the chances of them being their descendants is remarkably low.”

They are not the real ‘Black Moon’.

“Perhaps they are trying to cover their identities with Black Moon.”

Koel was speculating that the people behind the incident used the Black Moon pattern to hide their identity.

“Hmm.”

It certainly made sense, so Pavian nodded his head.

“Then what are you going to do?

Koel asked Pavian.

It is unknown whether this is Black Moon or not. But one thing was certain.

“You mean Ramos?”

“Yeah.”

It was that Ramos, who had tried to kill Pavian after he became the Tower Lord, was one of the masterminds.

“We are tracking them now.”

Pavian, who felt a little offended by the thought of Ramos, replied with a narrowed eyebrow.

Currently Ramos, no, they were tracking the people who made poison together with Ramos. I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

“I see.”

Koel nodded and then asked.

“What is their purpose?”

He was curious.

Why the hell did they release the Chimeras? what for?

“Haha, what purpose do crazy people need to do crazy things?”

They released Chimeras all over the continent. They were obviously crazy.

There was no reason for madmen to have a purpose.

“The reason Ramos joined in was revenge against me.”

Pavian clenched his teeth as he remembered Ramos.

“I’ll see you soon.”

Pavian had nothing more to say, then he got up after saying good-bye to Koel.

“Sure, good-bye.”

Koel also got up and said his good-byes. Meanwhile, Pavian left the room.

As soon as Pavian left, Koel looked at the token with a serious expression.

There was something Koel did not tell Pavian.

Black Moon regularly caused chaos in the world, even after its downfall by Lapis.

It was not known because they changed their name.

‘They’re using their own symbol.’

But why did they use their original symbol?

‘Are they ready?’

It means that they are finally ready.

And are prepared to not be defeated, even if they use the name of the Black Moon.

_________

[You have defeated all the Chimeras of ‘Torong’ in the village.]

[You have completed the special quest ‘The Chimera who took control of Torong’.]

[Items are acquired according to the level of contribution.]

[You have earned the most contribution.] [Obtained the Behind the Scenes Token.]

“Sigh”

Soo Hyuk sighed deeply.

“Finished.”

The last village of the 15, he finally killed all the Chimeras.

‘I managed to save 12 out of 15, that is good right?’

He failed to save three libraries, including Cashew. However, in other words, he protected 12 places.

It was then.

“Over there, aren’t you Soo Hyuk?”

Some users approached Soo Hyuk and asked.

It seemed that they recognized him because of the guild mark and the animal mask.

“Ah yes. Good morning.”

Soo Hyuk greeted the users.

“Wow! I am a fan.”

“Congratulations!”

The users who had been gazing at Soo Hyuk smiled broadly at his words.

“Can I ask you a question?”

One of the users asked.

“Yeah.”

Soo Hyuk, who wanted to go hunt Chimeras in other villages right away, but could not resist the users’ eager eyes, nodded his head.

“This is a personal question…”

The user blurred the end of his speech then continued looking at Soo Hyuk’s eyes.

“Do you have a special job? Something black just killed the Chimera.”

Soo Hyuk was known as a Triple Wizard.

However, the user saw the ‘Children of Darkness’ that Soo Hyuk summoned.

‘They saw it too.’

Soo Hyuk who had no intention of keeping it a secret after using the ‘Child of Darkness’.

In other words, it would be known someday.

“Yes.”

Soo Hyuk answered briefly.

He did not intend to elaborate. The user would not even ask as it is considered very rude to ask about details of your special job and skills.

“Thank you.”

The user expressed his gratitude with a satisfied expression at Soo Hyuk’s answer.

“Hey, can I ask you a question too?”

“Yea?”

When the user’s question was finished, the user next to him asked another question.

‘They can’t just ask questions like this.’

There seemed to be endless questions.

‘I have to finish with this question.’

“Yes.”

Soo Hyuk answered, thinking it was the last question.

“Do you have any plans to disclose information about legendary items?”

“If it is planned to be told to the public, we will publish it through Yeon Jeung. I have a place to go now, so I will just go. Have fun!”

After answering and saying goodbye to the users, Soo Hyuk quickly drove the ghost horse to the Warp Gate.

‘Now, it’s over if you clean up A Grade villages!’

He already cleared A and B Grade villages with libraries.

Now all that is left is the A Grade villages.

‘Six hours would be enough.’

It should take 6 hours to clean them all up.

‘It’s 1 o’clock. Do I have enough time left?’

Soo Hyuk looked at the time and thought.

Even if he clears out all the A Grade villages, he has about 5 hours left until he logs out.

‘Even if I stop by the Central Magic Tower and finish the bracelet quest.’

He had work to do. He had to stop by the Central Magic Tower and hand over the tokens.

And the option of the bracelet ‘Mana Wave’ had to be unlocked.

It will not take long since he only needs to purchase ingredients to unlock the bracelet options.

It will not take a long time for him to know about the mastermind behind the scenes by taking the token to the Central Magic Tower.

‘Uh.’

Realizing that there is still time, Soo Hyuk smiled at the thought of going to the library.

‘Oh right.’

Then, with a sudden thought, Soo Hyuk opened his inventory.

‘I’ll have to look for it.’

He looked at the map he had obtained from the village ‘Cashew’.

Soo Hyuk was worried.

Should he go to the library or uncover the ‘???’.

‘Let’s find out later.’

His worries did not last long.

‘I can find it later.’

It was Soo Hyuk who had the map anyway.

He did not need to find it right now.

“Where are you going?”

“Evan of the Kingdom of Enita.”

After arriving at the Warp Gate, Soo Hyuk warped to the A-grade village ‘Evan’.
