The Genius Blacksmith’s Game
The Genius Blacksmith’s Game
King of Wolves (3)
King of Wolves (3)
[Wolf Strike]
[You are sent flying far away by a powerful impact.]
Kwaang-!
Hyeon-su flew through the air.
As he tumbled through the sky, he caught sight of Bell, who was frozen in terror.
Bell was genuinely feeling fear within this game.
She had collapsed in terror at the sight of the ferocious gray wolf that stood over 4 meters tall.
Hyeon-su’s grip on his weapon tightened.
‘What should I do?’
Having already flown about 20 meters, it would be too late if he ran toward the gray wolf.
‘Should I shoot an arrow?’
He couldn’t hit it.
Since Ares was a realistic game, Hyeon-su spinning through the air would feel severe dizziness.
The image of Bell hanging limp with her neck caught in the gray wolf’s jaws flashed through his mind.
Though they had spent only a short time together, she was a good person and a new connection for Hyeon-su.
Flash-
Hyeon-su’s eyes opened wide as he fought off the dizziness.
‘I need to unleash a power that will definitely hit.’
It came to him. Memories from his childhood.
It was when his Blacksmithing Technique was developing.
Hyeon-su was no different from other students.
He had loved legendary or mythological weapons that were passed down through stories.
What was slightly special was that Hyeon-su could actually recreate those things that other students had only heard about once during their school days.
[Divine Emergency Crafting begins.]
He had drawn blueprints of dozens of weapons and tried to recreate them through various books.
Among them, Gungnir, which was said to be made by Odin, was something he had put his heart and soul into creating.
Like a child absorbed in Lego blocks.
[Your experience is remarkable.]
[Your understanding is exceptional.]
[Effect application rate increases by 8%.]
[Effect application rate increases by 9%.]
He had memories of discarding it dozens of times and thinking it over dozens more times while creating it.
That’s why it was such an easy task for him.
[Effect application rate is 77%.]
[It is Unique grade.]
Swoooosh-
He slid across the ground and reached out his hand.
That beautiful spear, as if painted with gold, was truly Gungnir from mythology itself.
[Status ailment Dizziness activates.]
[It is not easy to maintain balance.]
Hyeon-su shifted his weight to his back leg.
He clenched his teeth tightly. The distance between him and the beast was about 60 meters.
The moment it left his hand, Gungnir accelerated and charged forward.
(Gungnir)
Grade: Unique
Durability: 4,000/4,000
Attack Power: 289
Restriction: No restriction for creator, Level 100~200
Special Abilities:
·Strength +1%, Stamina +1.2%
·Active Skill Sure-Hit Gungnir.
·Active Skill Free Control.
Description: A spear born from emergency crafting, with an effect application rate exceeding 70% due to the creator’s outstanding experience and knowledge.
Hitting an enemy located about 60 meters away with a thrown spear was virtually impossible.
But the spear Hyeon-su threw was the spear once held by Odin, the chief god.
[Sure-Hit Gungnir]
[Guaranteed to hit any enemy within a 100-meter radius and increases additional attack power by 330%.]
It won’t miss.
Crackle-
The spear, crackling with massive sparks, accelerated.
The gray wolf mockingly leaped into the air, escaping the spear’s trajectory and sneering at it.
But Gungnir twisted its path and soared upward into the sky.
“Kyaak!”
Bell fell to the ground, and the gray wolf’s large yellow eyes widened.
However, the gray wolf soon felt relieved.
He was merely a petty king of the land in the wolves’ sanctuary.
But long ago.
When Lord Fenrir was still alive, he had been a being who displayed ferocity as his third child.
Though he had become ridiculously weak now, even so, none of those who had entered this sanctuary had managed to inflict even a single wound on his thick hide.
No weapon had been able to cut him.
No weapon had been able to penetrate him.
Yes, the gray wolf was never meant to be hunted in This Place to begin with.
Puuuuuk-!
But the moment that spear pierced his abdomen, the gray wolf felt pain for the first time in his life.
Kwarrrreuk
“Kyaaaaaang!”
A dog’s cry involuntarily burst from its mouth.
The force of the spear embedded in its abdomen pushed it forward.
Soon the spear, with the ash-colored wolf skewered like a kebab, crashed into a tree.
Kwaaaaang-!
“Kyaaaaaang, kyaaang!!”
The ash-colored wolf, pierced by the spear and hanging from the upper part of the tree, thrashed about frantically.
Soon the spear pulled itself out and the ash-colored wolf crashed to the ground.
Thud-
The ash-colored wolf staggered to its feet.
To take this much damage from that mere human?
He was running toward it holding a sword. Then he did something incomprehensible.
He extended the index finger of his left hand and quickly brought it down from top to bottom.
“…?”
The ash-colored wolf was puzzled. Without realizing it, it looked up.
[Free Control]
[You can freely control Gungnir even without holding it.]
The spear that had been pulled from the tree was shooting toward its body.
Swoosh-
The ash-colored wolf rolled to avoid it and charged toward Hyeon-su like lightning.
A leopard runs 100m in 3.2 seconds, reaching a top speed of 110 km/h.
The ash-colored wolf, several times larger than a leopard, runs 100m in 2 seconds and reaches a top speed of 150 km/h.
With each stride, the ground caved in and it rapidly closed the distance to The Man.
The Man sheathed his sword and pulled out a mysterious bow.
“Grrrrrr!”
[Ash-colored Roar]
[The wolf’s prey within a 30m radius will be torn to shreds.]
The Man’s entire body was struck dozens of times by the wolf’s powerful front paws.
His sturdy-looking armor was dented, his center of gravity shook, and screams poured from his mouth.
Now within 20m of him.
The staggering Man, still taking damage, slowly drew his bowstring.
Click-
Whoooosh-
It wouldn’t let its guard down.
It knew he was a Strong One beyond its expectations.
Twang-
Seeing the arrow being released, it chose to charge through. It felt it could allow the arrow and instantly tear out his throat.
One arrow embedded in its chest.
The impact was strong enough to knock it backward, but it ignored it.
The Man’s face was right in front of it.
The ash-colored wolf opened its mouth wide.
But something was strange.
Grin-
The corners of The Man’s mouth turned up slightly. A smile that didn’t match his blood-covered body.
[Strange Thousand Pounds.]
The weight of its chest pulled toward the ground.
Kwaaaaang-
Its chest slammed into the ground and it felt like its entire body weight increased tenfold.
The ash-colored wolf felt like its posture resembled bowing to a king.
In the immobilized ash-colored wolf’s vision, it saw The Man raising his sword with both hands.
And Hyeon-su mercilessly struck down on the ash-colored wolf’s head.
Crack-!
“Haa haa.”
Watching the creature turn to ash, Hyeon-su breathed heavily.
[You have hunted the boss monster Ash-colored Wolf.]
[You gain 23,910 experience points.]
[You have leveled up.]
[You have leveled up.]
[You have leveled up.]
[You have leveled up…]
[You gain 3,503 Gold.]
Hyeon-su’s level rose by nearly 20 at once.
‘Bell’s experience gain rate buff is certainly amazing.’
18% increase in experience gain rate.
Essentially, that buff allowed Hyeon-su to gain about 3 more levels.
[Something special happens.]
‘Hmm?’
Hyeon-su pondered over the part about something special.
Come to think of it, the cloak and helmet Hyeon-su obtained from hunting Fenrir’s fragment had this written on them:
‘Something special might happen.’
Hyeon-su anticipated what that special thing might be.
[You already possess two artifacts related to Fenrir.]
[By hunting the ash-colored wolf, one of Fenrir’s children, you obtain Fenrir’s Broken Boots.]
Hyeon-su let out a small exclamation of admiration.
And there were more rewards from hunting the ash-colored wolf.
[You obtain a Wolf’s Egg(?).]
‘What’s a wolf’s egg?’
For now, Hyeon-su checked the broken boots first.
(Fenrir’s Broken Boots)
Grade: Epic, Cannot be repaired
Durability: 390/4,000
Defense: 166
Restriction: Level 100 or higher
Special Abilities:
·Strength 5, Stamina 13
·Magic defense increased by 14%.
·Lightning resistance increased by 17%.
·Active Skill Wolf Leap.
·When wearing two of the three set artifacts, all effects increased by 3%.
·When wearing all three, all effects increased by 10%.
·Something more special might happen.
Description: Fenrir’s broken boots that were so severely damaged they completely lost their original form, and only the original creator can repair them.
It was identical to the series he had obtained before.
But Hyeon-su still felt a great need to equip them.
[You have equipped Fenrir’s Helmet, Fenrir’s Cloak, and Fenrir’s Broken Boots.]
[Set effect applied – all effects increased by 15%.]
‘I’ll need to repair this when I get back too.’
This time he examined an egg that looked as large, hard, and white as an ostrich egg.
(Wolf’s Egg)
Grade: ???
Type: ???
Description: A wolf’s egg that the Gray Wolf, Fenrir’s third child, possessed. What kind of wolf will emerge is unknown, and when it will hatch is also unknown.
‘Fenrir’s third child? More than that, a wolf’s egg?’
Hyeon-su realized that the Gray Wolf he had hunted was a more remarkable creature than he had thought.
But since he didn’t know when it would hatch or what kind of wolf would emerge, he carefully stored it in his inventory for now.
[You have completed a new story with remarkable achievement.]
Hyeon-su had continuously heard about something called the Wolf King before.
And still, Hyeon-su couldn’t know exactly what that Wolf King was.
[Hidden Piece. One who defeated the king of the wolves’ sanctuary]
[You have become the Wolf King.]
[You acquire the Voice of Wolves.]
Hyeon-su showed a surprised expression at the notification that soon followed.
He slowly moved his steps and climbed onto a rock.
***
[You have fainted.]
Belia had fallen to the ground and fainted due to the Gray Wolf.
The status abnormality of fainting sometimes serves to protect users.
When they suffer great mental damage or feel fear, it makes them faint to protect them.
Belia, slowly regaining consciousness, didn’t want to wake up.
‘No, I don’t want to…’
Actually, when she was in crisis due to the Gray Wolf at the wolves’ sanctuary, she had doubts.
Hyeon-su was strong enough. Beyond what she had expected.
But she wondered if Hyeon-su and herself could really save the Saint.
‘How do we get to the Saint? No, what about all those believers?’
She couldn’t think of any way to break through hundreds of those grotesquely-looking believers.
Awoooo…
An unknown wolf’s howl made her spine tingle.
She realized the situation she was currently in and finally opened her eyes.
Awoooooo-
The sun seemed to have set as darkness had fallen, and Belia showed a puzzled expression at the continuous howling.
That howling became clear as if it could be heard right by her ear.
Awoooooo-!
Belia’s eyes widened.
Behind trees, bushes, and rocks. Giant wolves throughout the sanctuary began walking one by one toward a man standing on a rock.
Awoooooooo-!
‘Hy, Hyeon-su?’
Above Hyeon-su’s head.
Fenrir’s Helmet that he was wearing was howling by itself.
Awoooooooo-!
With another howl, hundreds of brave wolves lined up before him.
Those wolves howled simultaneously.
Awoooooooo-!
‘The, the Wolf King…’
Belia trembled with excitement. Yes, Hyeon-su’s current appearance was the Wolf King itself.
At that moment.
Game nickname Coat. And Ji-hoon, Hyeon-su’s real friend, was hiding near the temple.
Coat was a level 198 paladin who had received the Hidden Quest: Rescue the Saint.
Ji-hoon, who had originally been based at Leas Temple, swallowed his dry saliva.
Hundreds of evil god’s believers.
And the famous Fifth Calamity in Ares.
‘Can we rescue her?’
And the paladins who survived with Coat were preparing to rescue the Saint.
In fact, it was almost certain to be impossible.
But the paladins here had no choice.
There was an extremely attractive reward of gaining 5 levels for rescuing the Saint.
“Let’s go.”
The few remaining paladins and Coat began to move.
