173 – The Nymphs and the Secrets of the Island of Chios # 2

“A historic site was discovered off the coast of Chios Island?”

While I was calmly going through discharge procedures, I heard a story that was quite disturbing.

It was a story about the awakening people of Greece discovering something new after the Typhon Typhoon incident that occurred last night.

“As I traced the formation process and path of the typhoon, I found that it all started here in the waters off Chios Island. “I looked up the coordinates and it looked like this—.”

Tiktik-.

Achilles tapped the tablet PC and showed me a screen.

These photos were taken deep in the ocean off the coast of Chios Island.

“This photo was taken by divers chasing chimera ants that escaped into the sea. Until recently, there were no ruins like this. However, it appears that the terrain changed and became exposed due to the typhoon.”

It was said that there was little chance of discovering something new in the sea near Greece.

This is because since ancient times, famous divers, treasure hunters, and archaeologists have searched the bottom of the sea to find the mythical city of Atlantis.

However, due to the impact of yesterday’s typhoon, there seemed to be a change in the topography of the sea.

From noble mtl dot com

Strange ruins suddenly appeared.

In other words, it was a “Transition phenomenon.”

Intense cracks like the “Tower” Created by the typhoon of space and time sometimes caused structures and other structures to be transferred to the world.

This ruins must be like that.

“The Atlantis expedition team is being reorganized. Maybe it will be a discovery that can change human history. Mr. Ildo, would you like to join the exploration party?”

“Who, me?”

“Yes. You contributed greatly to defeating “Typhon, the Demon Beast of the Typhoon”. Although he is a foreigner, based on his achievements, it appears that he has sufficient conditions and qualifications to participate in the exploration team.”

I was a little worried about Achilles’ question.

Exploring newly discovered historical sites will definitely make you feel like an adventurer or explorer.

It should be fun.

“… Senior, you need to calm down! Since you entered the overloaded crack without any special protection devices or procedures, it is right to monitor the situation for the time being… !”

However, Ari, who claimed to be my doctor, opposed the exploration of the underwater ruins. Ari’s opinion was very accurate.

Wasn’t the overloaded crack filled with unstable magical energy?

Even if I deployed my magical power, it was not easy to control space.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that the bodies of the animals and I, who fought an intense battle in such a place, were exposed to some kind of ‘threat.’

Although the hospital’s examination determined that there was no problem, cracks were still an unknown world, and there may have been variables in my body that had not yet been discovered.

“It would be better to rest.”

━Kkeongkeong… !

━Hiooong… !

I looked at Kungkkung walking around the temple of the “Pantheon Guild” And Kkungkkung sitting calmly on my shoulder.

The condition of the two animals looked very good, but since they had been engaged in an intense fight against the possessed body, it might be better to rest for one more day.

Then Achilles asked.

“Mr. Ildo, who is this beautiful woman over here?”

“Ari is my junior. “I’m a doctor.”

Zek-.

Achilles Legion stretched out his hand toward Ari.

Ari took his hand and the two briefly shook hands.

“This is surgeon Yuari.”

“It’s difficult to gauge your skills. “You’re an awakened person, right?”

Achilles seemed to have realized with just a handshake that Ari had acted as an awakened person early on.

Indeed, the 5th place S-rank talent is different.

Zek-.

Achilles let go of Ari’s hand and tapped the tablet PC again.

“It is a pity that Mr. Ildo cannot participate in the exploration. Since we have to travel through waters teeming with magic, the more skilled awakeners the better. “It will take at least a year.”

What?

At least 1 year?

I remembered an archeology documentary I often watched.

When exploring ruins such as pyramids and Inca temples, it was said that schedules were set and planned for at least a year.

If I had participated in the expedition, I would have had to spend several years in the sea off Greece.

That was a bit difficult.

I have to go back to Korea.

I promised to help Jinah Lee move into her own room next week.

It was a good thing I refused.

“Mmm, robbery of the ruins…. Somehow, the smell of money is very strong… ! Illinois can especially lend a hand… !”

“This Coris is also confident in swimming and diving… ! Because nymphs are originally fairies who live in rivers and springs, they are good swimmers… !”

“I want to explore this Oinoido ruins… !”

At that time, the nymphs raised their hands.

The nymphs seemed to be very interested in the underwater ruins discovered in Greece, and they seemed to have decided to help with the exploration only for a day trip, maybe two days from today.

“Then Mr. Il-do, please come to my house with me. Because there was something I wanted to show you. “I promised to teach you how to use the “Whispering Coin.”

I followed Achilles to his house.

The house that Achilles arrived at was located on a beach near an old lighthouse.

It was a beautiful house with a sophisticated balcony and a structure reminiscent of the Sydney Opera House, and the garage located in the basement had so many cars lined up that it was difficult to count them.

That was indeed the way for S-class people to make good money.

“A nymph?”

“These are things we only see in myths…” .”

“It’s a little different from what I imagined.”

A ship on the sea.

The nymphs were surrounded by bearded professors, captains, and sailors.

These were all archaeologists called Naero.

They were very surprised to have met Nymph, a fairy who only appeared in myths, and Nymph Illinois laughed darkly at this situation.

“Why are you looking at the nymph with those eyes…?” ? If you want to look at a nymph for more than 10 seconds, you have to give money… !”

People were rummaging through their pockets with great admiration.

However, there were few people who had coins or bills, and Illinois, seeing the situation, added a word.

“If you don’t have coins or bills, payment by bank transfer or credit card is also possible… !”

Archaeologists were greatly impressed by the news that nymphs, which they had only seen in myths, could make bank transfers or card payments.

The world was full of so many amazing things that there was no end to exploring them.

“Illinois…. “Are you the nymph Illinois mentioned in von Neumann’s records?”

At that time, Greek mathematician Masreik asked.

“The nymph Illinois written in von Neumann’s diary… ! I thought it was a metaphor for the inspiration of some kind of genius… !”

Soon Illinois crossed his arms and nodded.

“Von Neumann… ! Are you talking about that boy from Illinois who beat up Honey Chestnuts before? ? She is so smart that they once appointed her as an honorary nymph… !”

“That’s right, just von ‘Noj’. Illy ‘Noi’… ! The two were related! “This is a historic discovery!”

Many scholars, including archaeologists, murmured.

Rumble.

At that very moment, the boat stopped.

“Here is this point! Divers, get ready to dive!”

It was at this time that Oinoi and Coris, who had been dozing off, woke up.

Coris and Oinoi jumped into the sea without even taking their wetsuits or oxygen bottles.

The swimming and diving skills of the nymphs easily surpassed those of veteran divers who had been swimming underwater for more than 20 years.

Researcher Philos, who was watching the screen of the underwater camera hanging on the nymphs, was so impressed that he shed tears.

“Nymphs roam the Greek seas like in legends and myths. It’s very touching… !”

Of course, whether the old professors shed tears or not, the nymphs swam very skillfully and quickly arrived at the underwater ruins.

And I was surprised.

“It’s Coris… ! Look at that… ! This feels a little different from the ruins Oinoi was thinking of… !”

“That’s right… ! Those aren’t Greek ruins… !”

It was just as Coris said.

The underwater ruins were completely different from the Parthenon-style structures commonly seen in Greece.

It was made of square rocks stacked one on top of the other in the shape of a square pyramid.

“This is a pyramid… ! Why is there a pyramid off the coast of Greece? ? Let’s continue our exploration soon… !”

When the nymphs enter the underwater pyramid -.

Historian Rubber History shook his white beard.

He turned 70 this year, and his face turned red as if he was about to run out of breath, and his tightly clenched hands shook with excitement, unable to contain it.

“Huh… ! Was what my teacher said true? It is said that long ago, when Typhon the Destroyer appeared, the Greek gods were frightened by Typhon and fled to Egypt… ! I thought it was just a story allegorizing the close connection between Greece and ancient Egypt… !”

The nymphs have now entered the interior of the pyramid.

And right there, I found strange stone tablets lined up.

The sizes of the stone slabs were varied, and on average, they were the size of a refrigerator at home.

“I want you to look at this… ! A drawing similar to the shape of a “Chimera ant” Is engraved on a stone tablet… !”

“This thing here looks like an ancient dog squirrel…” !”

There were various patterns engraved in relief on the stone slab, some of which had the shape of ants, as the nymphs said, while others had the shape of squirrels.

Historian Ruber History, who saw this, was once again astonished.

“Bo… It’s a sealing tablet… ! An Egyptian stone tablet said to have sealed spirits, demons, and false gods from long ago… ! “Destroyer – Typhon’s Seal” Was sealed using the Egyptian method. !”

Soon the nymphs discovered a very large stone slab.

It was cracked and broken.

“The stone slab that imprisoned Typhon looks like this… ! But judging from the smell of the gunpowder that fell here, it seems like someone intentionally destroyed it… !”

Illinois could smell gunpowder even in the salty seawater.

Someone had deliberately exploded an explosive to destroy the slab where Typhon was sealed, and the slabs of “Chimera Ant,” “Giant Squirrel,” And “Emperor Crayfish” That were nearby must have been affected in the aftermath.

“… “Who on earth would do such a terrible thing?”

The scholars on the ship tried to answer this question by creating various hypotheses and formulas, but no one came up with a clear answer.

Pod-.

At that time, Oinoi discovered something among the stone slabs.

“Ahh… ! Everyone should see this… !”

The stone tablet was engraved with a girl with pointed ears similar to a nymph, but the difference was that she had a tail.

Illinois saw that and tilted his head.

“The nymphs don’t have tails… ! So what is this stone tablet? ? A nymph with a tail… ! It’s impossible… ! This is very disgusting… !”

“This Coris thinks it’s fun…” !”

“The idea is to take it and leave… !”

The nymphs carried the stone slab they were worried about and worked together to drag it onto the boat.
