The Last Adventurer

Chapter 119 – . Magatia (1)

One.

“So, so? So what happened?”

El Palm, who had been listening to the story of the conversation between him and Knight Commander Oz, asked a question with a more nervous expression than ever.

“Did Commander Oz accept that offer?”

El Palm shook his head at that question.

“I was rejected.”

“ah.”

“Oh.”

In response, Devo and Miner both let out a sigh as if they had made a promise.

It was such an obvious thing, but it was a sigh of relief.

“He said it was a ridiculous offer and turned it down.”

That would be the case, as El Palm had said, it would be too risky to conquer the 33-person Mystic Gate with only 5 people.

“Of course not, that makes no sense.”

Of course, if it was just the 33-person Mystic Gate, there wouldn’t be a problem.

The El Palm Party was an adventurer party that conquered the Mystic Gate with only their abilities, a whopping 300 people.

“It’s a green grade.”

“Yeah, Green is different. It’s very different.”

The problem was that the Mystic Gate we were talking about here was a green-grade Mystic Gate.

“I don’t know about the leader, but we are the 4th circle.”

The role of 4th circle adventurers is bound to be very limited on a stage prepared for 5th circle adventurers.

Moreover, it wasn’t just a grave.

“Isn’t that right, Kiri?”

“hmm?”

“No, don’t you think it’s dangerous for a 4-circle person to enter the green rank? It’s none other than the tomb of the Knights of Signus.”

It was the place where the already proven Knights of Signus died.

Actually, that was the most dangerous part.

“If it’s the 5th Circle Knights of Signus, then they’re real knights, right?”

Usually, from the 3rd circle onwards, one is recognized as a knight of the Signus Knights.

However, it was only a matter of being recognized as a knight. No one thought that the knight order would move just because the 3rd Circle Signus Knight moved.

“Representing the will of the Knights Templar.”

However, it would be safe to say that the movement of the 5th Circle Signus Knights was the will of the Signus Knights.

This made a huge difference.

But then he met death?

Is there even anything to retrieve from that grave?

“It is not easy.”

An extraordinary mission in many ways.

“The 100-person option would be easier. That’s probably why the Commander of the Fire Knights refused.”

In many ways, Oz’s choice was understandable.

“Yes.”

El Palm knew too.

Oz would not have accepted this offer easily.

Still, El Palm had to make this suggestion.

“Unfortunately.”

“Huh? Boss, you’re saying it’s a shame?”

“Yeah, it’s a shame. It’s still the same as going with 5 people anyway.”

“yes?”

From the beginning, El Palm was going to be conquered by a party of five, that is, only the El Palm party, regardless of whether Oz accepted the offer or not.

So, if Oz had accepted the offer here, it would have been like receiving an unexpected reward from El Palm’s perspective.

“What, what did you say?”

Of course, everyone was shocked by El Palm’s words.

“What do you mean?”

“What kind of nonsense are you talking about?”

“This is not it!”

This time Ralph was there too.

“A party of five without any compensation! I cannot tolerate this kind of losing business!”

“If several people enter, we have to split the profits. Is that okay?”

“Oh, I will accept it.”

Ralph was quickly convinced by El Palm’s words that followed, but the rest was different.

Everyone looked at El Palm with blank eyes.

Didn’t El Palm himself know that it was dangerous?

“I know it’s not easy.”

About him, El Palm said:

“But this mission is much more dangerous if you do it with others. If you recruit ten people, it’s safe to assume that two or three of them are followers of the Black Mage.”

There is a high possibility that trolls will intervene in this mission.

“Boss! I don’t know about you, but it’s not easy for me and the rest of you.”

Of course, even so, the fact that the difficulty level itself was absurd still remained unchanged.

El Palm knew too.

“So it makes sense.”

“yes?”

“Anyway, we have to only attack the green-grade Mystic Gate from now on. If we can’t even attack the 33-person one, then none of the stories make sense.”

That this is just the beginning.

“I won’t force you. You can give up.”

I knew that too.

“Boss, we’ve come this far, so there’s no way that kind of talk will work.”

“Okay, I’ll go all the way.”

“If I run away from here, Master will tattoo a cowardly mark on my head.”

“I’ve made more money thanks to you than I’ve ever made in my entire life. There’s no reason not to follow you.”

That none of the four would give up.

So now I only had one thing to say.

“So boss, where is the tomb?”

Telling the destination.

El Palm answered him without the slightest hesitation.

“It’s Magatia.”

“What about Magatia?”

“That’s right. It’s the city of alchemists.”

2.

Magatia.

This city is located in the northeast of the Nihal Desert, between the Nihal Desert and the El Nas Mountains, and is known as the City of Alchemists.

“The reason why Magatia became the city of alchemists is simple.”

It was also a very special city.

“Because alchemy is only effective there.”

Alchemy that was impossible in other Maple World regions was possible in Magatia.

For example, creating new life forms or machines that move on their own.

“What happened? Well, that place wasn’t originally a city, it was a laboratory.”

What made such amazing things possible was the huge laboratory that existed beneath Magatia.

The laboratory left behind by the mysterious being was so large that not all areas had been explored yet, and at the same time, each laboratory was filled with mysterious alchemical knowledge.

The alchemy used by the alchemists of Magatia was obtained from that underground laboratory, and that was why that alchemy was only effective in Magatia.

“Someone said that it is pointless to study alchemy that cannot be used outside of Magatia.”

Many adventurers were skeptical about such alchemy.

Because there was no point in learning something that was of no use anywhere else in Maple World.

But the alchemists were different.

“On the other hand, the alchemists say. There is no reason not to go on an adventure here, since you can have an adventure here that you can’t have anywhere else in Maple World.”

They fell under Magatia’s spell.

“Well, whatever you think about it, it’s okay.”

In any case, it was a unique city in many ways, and of course, Magatia’s common sense was different from other places.

“The important thing is that the common sense known to adventurers in Maple World does not apply in Magatia.”

Magatia was virtually another world.

“Even the Kingdom of Ariant recognizes Magatia as an extraterritorial state.”

A completely different world, located in the Nihal Desert, untouched by the hands of the Ariant Kingdom.

“That’s why it’s extremely dangerous.”

It was a very dangerous place.

“The underground laboratory in particular is full of monsters you’ve never seen anywhere else in Maple World.”

That’s why.

“Adventurers planning to venture into the underground laboratory must hire a guide. Otherwise, they will never be able to find their way.”

Adventurers who find Magatia are always accompanied by a guide to the underground laboratory.

The same was true of the El Palm Party.

The first thing El Palm did upon arriving in Magatia was to look for a guide.

Of course, it didn’t take long.

El Palm, as soon as he arrived, he went straight to the inn called Song of Iron located in Magatia.

And he said to the owner of the place.

“I followed the fire.”

“Fire?”

“Yes, it is a great fire.”

The owner frowned at those words.

“You’re talking nonsense. Tsk, what bad luck this morning. Haze!”

“Yes, master.”

With those words, the owner shouted at the lowest-ranking employee.

“Get this crazy guy out of here!”

“yes!”

Then, a low-ranking employee named Hayes pushed El Palm’s shoulders with both hands and said,

“Hey, bro. Get out, get out!”

El Palm was pushed back helplessly by that forceful action, and Hayes repeatedly pushed El Palm.

Soon El Palm was kicked out of the inn.

thud!

At the same time, the door slams shut.

El Palm didn’t seem particularly embarrassed or surprised by that.

Because I saw it right away.

The man who had pushed her away a moment ago was now coming out through another door and approaching El Palm.

“This is Haze. I will guide you.”

And soon, with polite words, Hayes became the guide of the El Palm party.

There was nothing strange.

“I have already heard the whole story from him.”

It is impossible for Oz, the commander of the Knights of Fire, to be unprepared for this, as this is something he is personally carrying out.

Of course, not everything was ready.

“I can’t give you full support. Security is more important than ever.”

The path was shown, but it was El Palm Party’s job to carve out the way.

That was why.

“So when are the rest of you coming?”

“That’s all.”

“yes?”

Hayes, who had become a guide, tilted his head at El Palm’s words.

“It only takes five minutes?”

“That’s right. That’s all.”

“That’s all? It’s for 33 people?”

He knows that the Mystic Gate is a 33-person target, but only 50,000 are going?

No, getting in wasn’t the important thing.

“Five won’t get you there!”

It’s impossible to get to where the Mystic Gate is.

To that question El Palm said:

“This is all. There is nothing else.”

“ah.”

At that moment, Haze swallowed inwardly.

‘I’m going crazy. Those bastards are here again.’

I knew someone out of the ordinary was coming, but who would have thought someone out of the ordinary mentally?

Moreover, this case was very important to Hayes.

As a guide, he had to move with El Palm Party for whatever reason.

‘If you do something wrong, you’ll be ruined.’

So, Hayes had to do some convincing here.

“Five won’t do! The monsters in the underground lab are on a different level from other monsters!”

To give El Palm Party additional power.

Of course, El Palm did not respond to that.

“If it’s difficult, tell me your location. We’ll move on our own.”

The moment he heard that, Hayes gave up on persuading him.

“let’s go.”

He willingly took on the role of guide, prepared to die.

In other words, this number was that important.

A task that must be accomplished at all costs, even at the risk of death.

Of course, that determination was soon shaken.

The El Palm Party, who followed Haze as their guide and entered the underground laboratory, were soon able to encounter him.

“Damn it! It’s a bunch of cube slimes!”

Hundreds of square-shaped cube slimes.

It was a very troublesome enemy.

Cube Slime, as the expression suggests, is a pink, cube-shaped slime that is a monster that can only be found in Magatia.

In other words, it was a monster created through alchemy, and its abilities were on a different level from ordinary slimes.

“That guy is no joke. He just bounces off most attacks.”

In particular, the defensive power coming from a very elastic body was a more troublesome factor than expected.

A monster that is a nightmare to adventurers.

But it was different for El Palm Party.

“boss.”

Devo, he said.

“I will clear the way.”

“uh?”

After saying those words, Divo ran towards the group of pink cube slimes.

“uh!”

Hayes saw it and screamed in horror.

“Oh, you’re crazy!”

Cube Slime’s strength is incomparable to that of regular slime. It can even bounce off sharp arrows.

It was impossible to wound him with the spear and sword of an average adventurer.

At the same time, the characteristic of slime, that its body is made of acidic liquid, was also valid.

But, a warrior charges at a horde of cube slimes with only a polearm?

Crazy, as Hayes said.

That was it.

Hayes was surprised, the rest weren’t that surprised.

There was no reason to be surprised.

“Oh my god!”

Divo, for him now, the group of cube slimes were no different from ordinary slimes.

“I am the hero of Polarm, Diboda!”

The horde of Cube Slimes began to be mercilessly crushed in front of Divo’s swinging polearm like a windmill.

It was a tremendous speed.

“uh?”

So fast that even Hayes, who was watching, had a blank expression.

Pervert!

The remains of the pink cube slime and the toxic acid debris exploded and scattered.

Of course, Hayes still had a serious expression on his face, and El Palm approached him and said.

“Like a guide.”

“yes?”

“Continue guiding the way.”

Only then did Hayes come to her senses.

At the same time, I could understand it.

‘Wow, what a ridiculous adventure!’

El Palm Party has the ability to attempt an attack with five people.

‘There’s no need to die!’

Of course, the most enjoyable thing was that there was no chance of death if you moved like El Palm Party.

“Yes, I will guide you right away!”

From then on, Haze acted as a guide, more relaxed than ever.

Under such guidance from Hayes, El Palm Party was soon reached.

“huh?”

And I could see it the moment I arrived at my destination, Mystic Gate.

“Po, the portal is activated!”
