Apocalypse's All-Rounder Mischief

Chapter 66

Weeping Ancient Goddess Statue (1)

Annihilate the monsters on the 1st and 2nd floors of the labyrinth!

Defeat the boss on the 3rd floor of the labyrinth!

As a reward for this, a large amount of experience and coins, as well as new power recovery exchanges, new skills, new weapons, etc., were given to both camps of the good and evil gods at the same time.

Only one of the two can be selected.

Considering that the boss’s horns are sacrificed, the reward of the evil spirit camp is much better.

‘I don’t think it should be accepted as soon as it comes out like this.’

It’s not because of some kind of reaction.

Just because I think we need to think about it a little more carefully.

When the first mission of the gods appeared, I thought it was just a quest that gave a generous reward, so I tried to accept it immediately.

Even the evil gods told me to competitively defeat the monsters, so it was a bit strange.

‘What kind of existence are the monsters in the labyrinth that both good and evil spirits are telling them to get rid of?’

This was the biggest question.

This is because, in the explanation of the mission window, both camps said that the monsters in the labyrinth should not exist in the world.

And there is another.

‘What the hell is that horn that the evil spirits give more generous rewards?’

3rd floor boss horn.

What if new-class beings that are not ordinary beings, even higher-level evil gods, would covet?

‘I can’t hand it over just to get a one-star new weapon and one more recovery ring.’

Of course, Junyoung desperately needs a recovery in his powers right now.

Because his power is depleted, the horse is only a one-star (●) god, and he doesn’t show any special abilities.

Even so, what if the labyrinth boss’s horns are worth several times more than the healing ring?

‘Nothing is free in this world. There is no kindness without cause.’

In other words, the fact that the good and evil camps give Junyoung a lot of experience points and other rewards doesn’t mean that they all have something to gain.

‘Otherwise, they are the hogus who do good things for others.’

However, the evil god (●●●) Blodane, as well as the good god (●●●●) Aroel, whom I met for a while, never had a hogu-like atmosphere.

This means that if they do what they want, Junyoung has the potential to become their guardian.

‘Am I too twisted?’

How about just accepting one of the two missions in a good way and getting a reward?

Good sister and good mother-in-law.

Well, as they say, there is nothing to lose.

And being kind to someone for no reason doesn’t necessarily mean being kind.

When you say it like that, you are saying that you shouldn’t show any kindness without a reward.

But.

That’s under normal circumstances.

These are not the good gods and evil gods in this world.

Obviously there must be a plan.

Junyoung’s doubts did not go away easily.

It’s not a vague feeling.

It wasn’t the unconscious, it was a mysterious intuition that came from something more than that.

[Only one of the missions of the good god camp and the mission of the evil god camp can be selected.][Which of the two would you accept?]

“Both refuse.”

Rather than getting a pitiful reward, let’s just be satisfied with the drop items you get by killing monsters.

I plan to take the horns I got from killing the boss of the labyrinth myself instead of handing them over to the evil gods.

[Sunshin (●●●●) Aroel questions your decision.]

“I don’t know why you turned down our favor, but you made a very stupid choice.”

Somehow, it seems quite unsettling.

That’s not all.

[The evil god (●●●) Blodane is angry with your decision.]

“You will receive it when you feed it well, but you don’t know your fraction. You will pay the price you deserve today.”

They’re funny guys.

Junyoung was not surprised because he expected them to come out like this anyway.

The best response you can give at a time like this.

You can just ignore it.

“Nyaan!”

Then, suddenly, there was the sound of Andrew crying.

The guy on Junyoung’s shoulder was staring at one side of the wall of the dark cave with his distinctive eye light, as if he had found something in the meantime.

[And’s unique ability detection is activated.][And found an unknown gap.]

‘There’s something over there.’

Curiously, the moment Junyoung turned down both camps’ duties, And found something.

‘Exquisite timing.’

Maybe it wasn’t a place that couldn’t be found if he hadn’t turned down the missions?

Moreover, the place Andrew is looking at is not far from the gate of the labyrinth.

If it was possible to detect it, it should have been done sooner, but the moment Junyoung refused the mission, And found an unknown gap.

‘Isn’t it just an ordinary wall?’Even if you touch it with your hand, there is no gap.

invisible to the eye.

But she said there was definitely a gap.

Andy’s detection has never been wrong.

Here’s what you need

‘research!’

[Search was successful.][The Unknown Rift is an ancient barrier.][Unknown Gap]

-Classification: barrier

-Description: A special barrier created in ancient times. But the door is firmly shut.

-【Entry Restriction】Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuo

It’s in a very odd language though.

‘Five! These are ancient slime characters.’

Junyoung immediately recognized what it was about.

Thanks to the Zekuras Knowledge Card, he has mastered the advanced slime language.

For reference, it is possible to register up to the intermediate level in the English language.

In other words, thanks to the commander, Junyoung, all of his subordinates were able to speak slime at an intermediate level, but not at the advanced level.

The only way to acquire a higher level language is to directly obtain the relevant competency book.

「To show sincerity, offer items of hero grade or higher! If you are a person with a relationship, you will not spare any hero-grade items in order to enter this place.”

My interpretation is this:

To offer a non-rare hero-grade item!

I know what’s in there!

‘after! I’m worried.’

Junyoung has several hero grade items.

Fist of Zekuras.

Golden Goblin’s Magic Repair Hammer.

Magical Chloride Thrower.

These are the hero grade items.

Of course, I have no intention of dedicating one of these.

Pleasant wind toilet

This is a hero-grade toilet that came up by accident while continuing to make simple toilets.

Not only does the durability exceed 200, but it also has the amazing effect of increasing agility and stamina by 3 each for 1 hour after using the toilet.

So, he puts it in the subspace with his own toilet.

‘You can make any number of toilet bowls.’

The reason is that the crafting material is very common compared to other flamethrowers and armor.

They are relatively easy to find anywhere.

In other words, there is a high possibility that a hero-grade toilet will appear again as it is made.

‘Hey! Let’s do it.’

No need to think long

I just do what my senses tell me to do.

Although it was an absurd request, Junyoung was convinced that somehow he had to sacrifice a hero-grade item and enter the barrier.

[The toilet of the pleasant wind has been released from the subspace inventory.][Would you like to offer the toilet of the pleasant wind to an unknown place?]

“Yes.”

Junyoung nodded.

The toilet in front of him was engulfed in a mysterious light and disappeared somewhere in an instant.

At the same time, characters in advanced slime language began to appear in front of Junyoung again.

“I’m sorry that you dared to give me something I used to use.”

‘this!’

Junyoung flinched.

Because it was the toilet he used, it wasn’t wrong.

‘There must be someone out there.’

Otherwise, there would be no real-time response in this way.

“It must be a rare and rare item, so let’s accept your sincerity in particular.”

Fortunately, it seems that the hero-grade toilet satisfies that mysterious existence.

[The secret palace of the ancient slime god has been opened.]

The nearby ground shook as if an earthquake had occurred with a loud notification that was heard immediately.

Dedede-!

Then the wall cracked sideways and a new passageway was created.

Inside the passage, a space like a huge Daejeon was visible.

A statue of a woman-like figure was erected in the center, and various books and weapons were displayed around the walls on all sides.

“Oooh! Unbelievable!”

When La Bra saw it, her body trembled in shock.

“I didn’t know that the secret of the ancient slime god that I had only heard of could actually exist.”

It seems that Lavra and others have also heard the notification a while ago.

“You must have known there was such a thing.”

“I have only heard about it as it is only a legend, but I don’t know the details. but······.”

Lavra suddenly tried to speak.

“But what?”

“No. It’s just a legend, but it’s also nonsense, and it’s a content that could provoke Hadosune-sama’s wrath.”

“It’s okay, tell me.”

Junyoung can now stop Hadosune’s wrath.

She said that she was somewhat familiar with her.

Then Lavra replied as if there was nothing she could do.

“Distant ancient times, actually, I do not know when the ancient times began, but it is said that real gods existed in this world at that time.”

“Really God? So are you saying that the gods that exist now are fake?”

It seemed to have something to do with the avatar-related content that Fragment of Truth tells you, so Junyoung asked with curiosity.

“I don’t know either. That’s just about what I know. I have only heard of the existence of a dungeon made by one of those real gods, the god of the ancient slime.”

“Then you don’t know what that place is.”

“Yes. This is all I know.”

“I get it. You’ll find out once you get in.”

Junyoung went inside.

And Andrew followed.

After that, Lavra and slimes came in one after another like candy.

Oddly enough, Gortan did not enter.

Because an unknown force pushed him away.

“Kur?”

The guy had a bewildered look on his face, as if he was asking why he couldn’t let me in.

“Just wait there. He’ll be there, he’ll be out in a little while.”

“Kur!”

Gortan nodded as if he knew.

Meanwhile, Lavra, who looked inside Daejeon, exclaimed.

“Oh oh! Ancient slime visions abound here, Lord!”

“okay?”

The vision of ancient slimes!

What is it?

Junyoung looked towards Lavra.

One of the bookshelves in Daejeon.

There were all kinds of books.

Due to an unknown force, the bookshelf could not be approached, and only the list and brief description could be checked through the description window.

[Earthquake Trigger]

-Classification: Combat ability

-Grade: Intermediate

-Description: Inflicts massive damage to multiple enemies by triggering an earthquake in a certain radius.

-【Acquisition Condition】 Slime, Magic 22

-【Cost】3,000 Coins

[Large Circular Surgeon]

-Classification: Combat ability

-Level: Advanced

-Description: Activates a large magic circle in a certain radius, giving beneficial effects to allies and inflicting massive damage to enemies.

-[Acquisition Restriction] Slime, Magical 37

-【Cost】 8,700 Coins

‘Five!’

Junyoung was also surprised.

Because they were all books of great power.

In particular, the large magic circle is somehow like a higher version of the magic circle that Labra has.

However, qualifications were an issue.

‘It’s an ability book that only slimes can learn.’

Unfortunately, it means that Junyoung, a human being, cannot be learned.

Besides, the cost is no joke.

It means you have to pay thousands of coins to learn it.

[Attack on Halberd]

-Classification: Window

-Rank: Legendary

-[Equipment Limit] Slime, Strength 50

-【Cost】 7,000 Coins

[Wand of the Underworld]

-Classification: Cane

-Rank: Legendary

-[Equipment Restrictions] Slime, Magic 50

-【Cost】 8,000 Coins

On the opposite wall, various weapons are displayed.

There were a lot of rare equipment, including a whopping legendary-grade spear and staff.

But none of them can just be obtained.

You have to pay huge coins to get it.“Isn’t this place like a store?”

“I wish that even a thunderbolt of coins would fall from the sky, Lord!”

As a slime Lavra, it’s a place where your eyes will roll over.

Unfortunately, he was still at a low level and was subject to stat restrictions.

But the bigger problem is the huge coins!

7,000 coins and 8,000 coins aren’t even his name.

These are things that Lavra couldn’t even come up with.

[Production of Egg Bread]

-Category: Living ability

-Description: You can make delicious egg bread.

-Ingredient: 1 egg

-[Acquisition Restriction] Slime, Magic 5

-【Cost】 20 Coins

But looking at it, I found something like this:

‘Egg bread?’

Junyoung was tempted for a moment.

Because it’s one of his favorite snacks.

There was also a picture of egg bread on the cover of the ability book, which was similar to what he ate.

‘You mean you can make that with just one egg?’

Originally, you would need other ingredients such as hotcake powder and milk.

It means that if you master the living ability “Making Egg Bread”, you can make egg bread with one egg without the need for miscellaneous ingredients.

‘It’s a deceptive ability.’

But Junyoung cannot learn.

Because it’s not a slime.

He groaned and shouted 20 coins.

[You have obtained 「Life Skill Book – Making Egg Bread」.][You are not a slime, so it cannot be acquired.]

Know.

Still, I tested it just to see if it was possible, but it seems that no matter how mischievous you are, you can’t learn slime-only abilities.

“Take it.”

Junyoung handed it to Lavra.

For a moment, Lavra flinched.

He had a very perplexed expression on his face, but he accepted it as if there was nothing he could do about it.

“Thank you, Lord. Hey, why are you suddenly buying this for me?”

“Labra, you learn this and make it. Egg buns are my favorite food. But the question is where to get the eggs.”

Then Lavra’s eyes lit up.

“Eggs are obtained from wild chickens in the forest. If it’s Rod’s favorite food, even though I hate eggs, I’ll try my best to make it.”

“Why do you hate eggs?”

“Yeah, there is something like that.”

It was a Labra who was ridiculed by someone about what to do with boiled eggs and what about spoiled eggs from start to finish.

Of course, there was no good feeling for eggs.

“Anyway, please be satisfied with this for today.”

“Yes, Lord.”

Junyoung handed Labra a copy of the life ability book and then turned to the center of Daejeon.

‘Shall we take a look at that statue now?’

The ability books and equipment were for slimes only, so they didn’t mean anything to Junyoung anymore.

However, for some reason, Labrador was unable to access the side where the central statue was located.

“road! I come to a place I cannot go.”

“okay. You wait here.”

It’s a battle of the slime god, but it’s unusual that there are places that Lavra, a slime, can’t access.

On the other hand, Junyoung and Andrew moved without difficulty near the statue of the goddess in the center.

‘tear?’

Junyoung was startled.

When I got closer, the appearance of the goddess was very bizarre.

Her eyes, ears, and arms have disappeared one by one, and her whole body is shattered like a machete.

But tears were actually flowing from the only one left.

No matter how you look at it, it’s a real tear.

[An ancient, weeping old goddess statue]

-Classification: unknown

– Rating: unknown

-Description: A goddess of unknown sorrow. Those with secret eyes see the truth.

-【Sealed Fragment of Truth】 You can unlock the seal by paying 1,000 coins.

What I found out through research.

‘A fragment of sealed truth?’

Junyoung’s eyes widened.

He finally found it.

Fragments of the second truth!

It must have been hidden in a barrier deep in the earth.
