Only I Have Two Towers Episode 075
Buro’s Elixir
The reason I came looking for the Imugi in the first place was because of its heart.
Since I needed to make an elixir of immortality.
I would have been satisfied just obtaining that.
[You have obtained the Achievement ‘Imugi Slayer’! Achievement Level: 100 / Achievement Grade: Epic]
[Player’s level increases!]
[Player’s level increases!]
[Player’s level increases!]
.
.
.
Endless messages unfolded before my eyes.
So many appeared that scrolling was necessary.
And finally, when those messages finished, the number that appeared was.
[You have reached Level 70!]
It was something quite hard to believe.
“Whaaaaaaat!?”
This time it wasn’t an exaggeration.
My eyeballs seriously almost popped out.
Jinhyeok, who had been frozen, checked his status window once more.
I didn’t see it wrong.
It’s 70, not 60.
A whopping 21 level ups.
Is this even a reasonable number?
Growth I’ve never seen even on the Tower Site.
[All stats increase by 30 at once! Maximum mana increases to 20,000!]
[Collectible card count increases from 5 to 10!]
[Collectible weapon count increases from 3 to 7!]
[Synchronization rate increases by 10%! Current synchronization rate: 112%]
[You obtain 1 Blank Card – True, 3 Blank Card – Normal!]
[Current Blank Cards owned, True: 1, Rare: 1, Normal: 3]
A dizzying sense of vastness washed over me.
Really, what is this.
This ridiculous growth.
I looked lovingly at Achievement Collecting that appeared in the unique trait slot.
If the trait had a physical form, I would have pinched its cheeks all day.
By the way, even though it’s an Imugi that lived for thousands of years, it’s only Epic grade.
I can’t even fathom what I’d have to do for Legendary or Mythic.
[Black Knight Order Commander Seira Kinketon’s level increases! Current level: 125]
Though the experience bar was almost full, even Seira who hadn’t leveled up for so long gained 3 levels at once.
[Yodel Ranger Corps Vice-Commander Kancheo’s level increases! Current level: 87]
[Immortal Dalk Castro’s level increases! Current level: 98]
[Greedy Collector Momo’s level increases! Current level: 90]
[Star Alchemist Elia Posen’s level increases! Current level: 106]
The card heroes’ levels also rose nicely, unlocking various skills and traits.
The entire party’s combat power grew explosively.
“Incredible.”
Seira gazed at Jinhyeok as power seeped into her body.
This was different from the Tower climbing she’d done before.
She hadn’t defeated monsters.
She hadn’t destroyed castles blocking the path.
All she did was wait quietly and then manifest.
Yet being able to grow this much was purely thanks to her master, Jinhyeok.
‘Perhaps…’
She recalled a realm she couldn’t reach in the past.
A ceiling she could never break no matter how much she struggled.
She thought it might be possible if Jinhyeok was with her.
Though it was still early since she hadn’t even regained her original power, just having that possibility was satisfying enough.
“Truly excellent.”
Dark’s lips also curved into a long smile.
As someone who loved fighting more than anyone, he craved strength more than anyone.
To have a master who brought sweet rain to such cravings.
He liked it so much he could go crazy.
After examining this and that for a while, Jinhyeok turned around.
What he’d gained now alone felt like enough to burst his stomach.
But it wasn’t over yet.
“Momo! Deploy!”
“Deploy!!”
“Wait!”
“Wait!?”
Momo, who was running while enthusiastically repeating orders, slammed on the brakes.
“Take out some cooking ingredients and tools first.”
“Okay!”
After taking out a bunch of stuff, Momo ran back toward the Imugi’s corpse.
Jinhyeok started cooking behind her.
You might wonder why cooking all of a sudden, but it was necessary.
It was several times larger than Elder Centipede.
Even for Momo, it would take quite a while.
During that time, to keep Momo from getting tired, cooking for energy recovery…
“I’m done!”
“Huh?”
Jinhyeok looked up and opened his mouth.
He hadn’t even turned on the burner yet.
But she’s already done.
He checked Momo’s system window.
[Rapid Processing]
# No matter how large a creature is, instantly dismantles and processes it.
A unique trait she gained from the recent level up.
Even if it was instant, given the Imugi’s corpse was so large, he didn’t think it would be this fast.
Our friend Momo had obtained an incredible trait.
“Master! It’s the snake’s heart!”
Momo came dragging something while straining.
“Ugh!”
Kancheo grimaced and stepped backward.
Momo’s trait of collecting higher-grade parts as her level increased, Skillful Hands.
Perhaps because it had already reached 6.
The heart was twitching so excessively fresh.
“Woohoo!”
Ellia, excited, ran toward Momo.
Even at 3,271 years old, this was her first time seeing such an intact Imugi heart.
“Granny!! There’s something weird here!”
Momo called out to Ellia.
Ellia ran over with both arms spread wide.
Jinhyeok also walked over quickly, curious.
Momo grabbed one side of the Imugi’s flesh with both hands and pulled.
After a moment, a semicircular object slipped out with a soft sound.
It was a mineral covered in blood, bright red and giving off a strange feeling.
Ellia bent down and wiped away the blood and flesh stuck to the mineral.
Momo the dismantler and collector, and Ellia the alchemist.
They made a strangely good combination.
“Ah?”
“What? What? Is it something good?”
After asking several times, Ellia made a strange expression.
“You said there were three materials needed, right? With this, this. We don’t need to find the other one? Momo, water bottle.”
“Okay!”
Ellia poured water over the ore and continued speaking.
“Master, you know about dragon’s orbs, right?”
“The thing dragons need to ascend to the heavens?”
“Right. It’s not quite that precious, but since this Imugi was trying to become a dragon, it has something similar. It’s called a Red Jade. Originally it was white, but it turned red because it’s filled with evil energy from eating humans. This one lived for thousands of years, so it’s very red and lustrous. Ho ho ho.”
Ellia suddenly laughed like an old woman and rubbed the Red Jade against her cheek.
“This Red Jade contains very wicked energy. The desire not to die, the desire to live long – that desire itself is incredibly wicked. When this energy combines with Elder Centipede’s heart and the Imugi’s heart, it will maximize the effect and become excellent material for immortality.”
“That sounds plausible?”
“Granny! You’re not trying to scam the General, are you?! Be careful! This granny’s tongue might be scarier than a snake!”
Kancheo became particularly sharp only when criticizing Ellia.
But it was reasonable enough to be worth trying.
“I’ll give it a try.”
There was nothing more to delay.
Waiting would only reduce the freshness of the hearts.
He immediately sat down and took out the Strange Potion Crafting Box.
Then he brought the two hearts and the Red Jade to the box.
Just when he wondered if he’d need to cut them because they were too big.
Ding!
[Lava Centipede Elder’s Heart, Imugi’s Heart, and Imugi’s Red Jade will be used as materials. Turn the box to see a list of potions that can be crafted. Even if the desired potion doesn’t appear, materials will not be returned. Will you proceed?]
Jinhyeok took a deep breath and nodded.
[You have consumed the last use. The Strange Potion Crafting Box will be destroyed.]
The box began rotating with a loud sound.
Jinhyeok clasped his hands together.
It had to come out.
The elixir of immortality.
Ryugai’s expedition team was climbing Jade Dragon Snow Mountain with high expectations.
“…?”
Ryugai, who was leading at the front, stopped.
The dozens of search team members following behind also stopped walking.
A strange silence flowed through the expedition.
A government official who had been reading the situation approached Ryugai.
“Mr. Ryugai? What’s wrong…?!”
The official’s eyes widened as he was about to ask.
For some reason, Ryugai’s face was terrifyingly distorted.
Ryugai rubbed his eyes.
Something was strange.
The Quest that had been fine just moments ago had disappeared without a sound.
The system being unhelpful wasn’t just today’s problem.
Thinking there might be some error, Ryugai kept closing and opening the system window.
“Damn it!!!”
Ryugai shouted at the Quest that wouldn’t reappear.
The search team began to stir at the ominous atmosphere.
Ryugai staggered and sat down, clutching his head.
‘This can’t be happening. This can’t be happening. Why did it disappear? Why?’
The conditions for Quest generation were ridiculously difficult.
Conditions that couldn’t be met without heavenly luck.
In other words, the probability that someone other than Ryugai received the Quest was close to zero.
But why? Why on earth did it disappear?
Ryugai, who had been thinking about something, stood up.
Then he began drawing up his awakened ability.
“R-Ryugai sir?”
“I’m going ahead. Something went wrong.”
The search team’s abilities and power were far behind compared to Ryugai.
They were often frustratingly slow, but he had received so much that he forced himself to match their pace.
But now wasn’t the time for that.
He had to confirm it.
Boom!!
Without waiting for an answer, Ryugai immediately kicked off the snow and climbed.
The forms of two dragons appeared beneath his feet.
Even with no foothold, Ryugai’s body shot forward rapidly as he ran through the air.
‘The Imugi is mine.’
He gritted his teeth.
‘It belongs to me, Ryugai, who is called the Dragon of the Continent!’
Only a dragon should devour the Imugi.
If not, then who else could devour the Imugi?
Who dared to have such qualifications?
After shooting forward for a while.
Ryugai frowned when the cave finally appeared.
There were traces of someone having entered and left.
Crack.
Denying reality, he stepped inside.
And shortly after, the scene that Ryugai had desperately tried to deny unfolded before him.
The ice was broken and blood and flesh that appeared to be from the Imugi were scattered everywhere.
“No!!!!”
He screamed desperately and struck the innocent ice.
Then several footprints caught his eye.
The fact that they remained despite the blizzard seeping in meant one thing.
‘They haven’t gone far yet.’
He couldn’t delay any longer.
Ryugai immediately turned and rushed out of the cave.
Ryugai returned to the search team in an instant and opened his mouth with bloodshot eyes.
“Request government support immediately.”
“What do you mean…?”
“If you don’t want to lose the Imugi, tell them to blockade all of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain!!! Hurry!!!”
“Y-Yes, understood!”
An exploration with massive capital investment.
Failure is something the Chinese government cannot tolerate.
They must catch it by any means necessary.
The Imugi thief, that is.
A peak somewhere on Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.
Jinhyeok knelt down at the summit.
Then he stared at the potion in his hand.
[Buro’s Elixir Imbued with Sinister Energy]
# Physical aging stops immediately upon consumption.
# Contains indescribably sinister energy.
# Unexpected changes may occur due to this energy.
He gazed at it with the most reverent expression for a moment.
‘Buro, welcome.’
He poured the potion into his mouth.
