Tyring -

[The Dark Luna Guild has captured the first Node in the Central Continent.]

[Guild Reputation +100,000.]

[Node Grade: None]

[You should upgrade the Node by upgrading the Abandoned Node.]

[Subdue the monsters around you and start the inner circle.]

The guild master and master of the Dark Cruna Guild, and the master of the Kailan Korean server, Irahan.

After placing the flag for the first time in the middle of the Central Continent, Iran became satisfied.

“Excellent. This big update will also be available in our Darkness Guild. ”

Irahan's class was known as the Hidden Class‘ Mage Swordsman ’.

However, this‘ Magic Swordsman ’class had no users other than Iran, so no information was known.

Even Hidden Classes derived from Wizard Classes, or Hidden Classes derived from Warrior Classes, were unknown to anyone but Hanan.

Even Irahan didn't appear on the ranking list because he kept all his information as private as Ian did, so no one even knew his level.

If Irahan's exact class is known, users speculated that one of the two Madosa Remir of Crimson Flame ranked as Wizard and Master Shakran of the Titan Guild ranked as Warrior will be pushed back down the threshold.

“Iran, we should be able to secure two more Nodes soon. Should I order more? ”

A man who appears to be one of the Dark Cruna Guild's top brass, Irahan shakes his head.

“No, I don't think that's necessary. We can't protect more Nodes than we already have. Defeat and grow around occupied Nodes. ”

“Yes, I understand. ”

The man who answered turned around and went outside the node, and Irahan opened his mouth to a female user who was standing next to him.

“Solyne. Have you found any clues about the Holy Grail?" ”

A woman named Solin replied, nodding her head.

“Yes, I found it, Master. ”

Irahan asked again with a satisfied expression.

“Good. What's your location? ”

“Holden's tomb lies within an ancient ruin in the heart of the central continent. It is assumed that you will get the Holy Grail there. ”

Irahan nods.

“Okay. Solyn, I want you to get about 30 of us ready to go first. I'll be right behind you. ”

In Irahan's words, Solin hesitates for a moment.

“Yes, Master. I have a problem. ”

“What problem? ”

“It... looks like there are users who entered the ruins before us. The flag suggests they are users of the Ruspel Empire. ”

As soon as I heard that, I was a child in Iran's eyes.

Irahan opened his mouth with an interesting face.

“Oh...? Did any of the users of the Ruspel Empire have the ability to enter the heart of the Central Continent so quickly...? ”

Solin cautiously asked Irahan.

“What do you say, Master? Shouldn't we be moving as fast as we can now? If you lose the Holy Grail, you lose a lot of planning. ”

However, unlike Solyn, who was a little hasty, Irahan was very relaxed.

Irahan smiled and said.

“There's no rush, Solin. ”

“Yes…? ”

The tail of Irahan's mouth dries up.

“It doesn't matter if you go slowly. We don't want to lose them. ”

“That means... ”

“If you take the Holy Grail with you, you have nothing to worry about, because we can take it back. Rather more exciting. I was afraid it was too boring. ”

Irahan untied a blue sword around his waist and gave it to Solyn.

“Take this sword and move ahead. Don't go in the dungeon, stay in front of it. So we can hit them as soon as they come out. ”

Solin takes the sword and asks.

“What is this sword? ”

“It's a tribute to the Emperor. The attack or options themselves aren't that great, but they're summoned so you can use them fairly well. ”

Solin nods and answers.

“I understand.”

Irahan calls Solyn.

“Soline.”

“Yes, Master. ”

“Can you handle the Rusfel savages if I don't have to go myself? ”

Solyn smiles coldly and replies.

“Of course, Master. ”

* * *

Ian's group enters a place that is literally a treasure vault, decorated in bright gold.

But the problem was, the space itself was just glamorous, but it didn't show a few luxurious items.

The accumulated gold coins seemed to be large at first, but after distributing them, they could only take 50,000 gold per person.

Ian hides his regret and takes a step to the innermost platform.

‘But I still have the Holy Grail. ’

Above the stage was the golden holy grail, about the size of the championship trophy of the sport, and Ian picked it up.

Anyway, the most important thing right now, it was the Holy Grail of Holdream.

Tyring -

[You have obtained the Holy Grail of Holdream.]]

[You met the requirements for the quest ‘Exploring the Cigar Ruins’.]

[Clear Grade: S]

[Successfully complete quests to gain EXP +25 million.]

[Gain 100,000 Reputation by successfully completing quests.]

[There will be a new quest to link to.]

Then the quest window appeared before Ian's eyes.

---------------------------------------

- Occupy the Node using the Holy Grail of Holden. -

You have successfully defeated the Hold Dream and acquired the Holy Grail.

Holy water contained in the Holy Grail of Holdream will double the growth of the Central Continent Node and reduce the time it takes to occupy the Node by half.

Use the power of the Holy Grail to conquer the Node.

Quest Difficulty: None.

Quest conditions: unknown.

Time limit: 7 days

* If the Holy Grail is lost or stolen, the quest will fail.

* If you reclaim the stolen Holy Grail, you can resume the quest.

---------------------------------------

Ian nods as he reads the raised message step by step.

And I thought for a moment.

‘If the Holy Grail is taken away, it is clear that there are other forces aiming for this Holy Grail...' Are there NPCs or monsters aiming for the Holy Grail? ’

Ian suspected that there were NPCs or monsters aiming for the Holy Grail, and that some quests related to the Holy Grail were occurring everywhere.

It was impossible for a normal user to know the existence of the Holy Grail without a quest.

And it wasn't a false guess.

Even though other users were eliminated, there were NPCs aiming for the Holy Grail, as Ian thought.

Ian asks for Helheim.

“What will you do now, Master? ”

By order of the Emperor, the Knights helped Ian with his quest to explore the ruins of Sikar.

After that, he asked because he didn't know if they would continue to help him.

And it was as Ian thought.

“Our knights must now join the reinforcements and build a front line, Birch. ”

“I see. Which side is the wire built on?" ”

Helheim speaks.

“We don't know yet. If you fall behind with the Kaimon Empire troops, the front lines will form. ”

Ian nods.

“I see.”

And I rolled my head hard.

‘Then we need to take the Node as close to where the Imperial Army is staying so we can keep it safe…. ’

The Lotus guild has grown so spectacularly that it is now close to 100 guilds, but it is still not fast enough to enter this central continent.

Compared to the guilds in the top 10, it was still the difference between adults and children.

'No, it might be better to focus on growth rather than go through the quest too much.'

After clearing his mind, Ian quickly organized the intestines and called the guild members together to move again.

“Fioran, it can be really dangerous from now on. ”

In Ian's words, Fioran asked with a curious expression.

“Why?”

“It's probably hard to be protected by the Knights now. ”

And Fioran's expression was sudden and embarrassing.

“Phew…. ”

Surprised, so did Hers.

“Hey, we have ten guild members, but we can't take over the Node and defend it with this power. The guild force alone will be enough to hunt field monsters. ”

Hers' words were natural.

The average level of the ten guild members here was about 120, but the level of monsters in the field was 140 or higher.

Ian may have tremendous PVE capabilities, but that was not enough.

“So I think we need to level up while hunting for now. ”

Fioran asks in a curious voice.

“Hunting? We saw that we were sharing a quest... Shouldn't we take the Node as soon as possible? There's a time limit.”

But Ian shakes his head.

No matter how hard I think about it, it was too dangerous to wander around.

It was better to get used to it and grow as much as possible in this tomb where the First Discovery Buff is double stacked to get 4 times the XP.

‘The quest failed after 7 days, but the quest was lost because of the Holy Grail. ’

Ian opens his mouth.

“Fioran, you do realize that if we go out there and meet any heroic fieldbosses, we're doomed, right? ”

For heroic boss monsters in the Central Continent, the minimum level would be 170.

Fioran sighs deeply.

“Phew... That's it. ”

“Honestly, even if we're lucky enough to make it to an empty Node, we're all game out in a few monster raids. ”

Once the Node is established, the monsters around you attack the Node in large groups.

The difficulty of combat itself is much higher than wandering around the field and hunting.

It would be different if there were a defensive wall that could hold a water temple, but there was no such thing as a Node on this desolate land.

The silent Hers asks for Ian.

“Then what are we going to do? Are you giving up quests?"

Ian nods.

“Yes. I think you should give up for now. I'm going to hunt here because it's full for a week, but then I have one more day... It's going to be hard to take over the Node inside. ”

Fioran has tasted better.

“Phew. That's too bad. I was excited that I could get hit by another EXP bomb if I succeeded in the quest. ”

Ian smiles bloody.

“Fourfold more experience here than that, and you'll probably get 100 times more experience hunting on grass a week. There are no more boss monsters here than the hero rank, so we can keep hunting if we move carefully. ”

Fiorando agrees with Ian.

“That's right. Seeing that my level has already reached 129... ”

Then one of the guild members who was gathered around them asked Ian.

“So what level is Ian on now? ”

Ian smiled and replied.

“I just went up one more level and took 132 photos. ”

Hers opens his mouth in embarrassment.

“132? Aren't you the top 10 in the overall ranking? ”

Ian shakes his head.

“I don't think so. Now, maybe all the top 50 users are over level 140. ”

“Is that so...? ”

“I think so. When I checked the rankings before I started this quest, I was sure that the top 50 users were 138. ”

Fioran mutters.

“By the way, I'm pretty sure Ian is number one in the Summoner's ranking... Who's number two? According to the ranking list of summoners who were promoted to the community last time, the top rank is listed as level 115. ”

Ian has never been on the Summoners ranking list because the information is private.

And Ian shrugged and replied, because he couldn't guarantee that there wasn't a user of the summoner who was still as private as Ian.

“There could be another summoner of my level. You don't know that.”

But Hers shakes his head with a look of nonsense.

“Crazy, such a person can't exist. There can't be another lucky nut job like you. ”

“Lucky bastard... ”

Fioran nods, agreeing with Hers.

“The expression was a little harsh… but I completely agree. ”

Ian frowned.

“Ha... Even Fioran... ”

But in the meantime, they're having a long conversation.

Tuk-

A lot of people who had eaten all the meatballs from Ian came down to the floor and were crawling around somewhere.

Huh-huh-huh-uh!

However, a lot of people disappeared because the shop was so noisy while it was being serviced.

And after about 10 minutes,

Ian realized that many people were missing.
