Pick Me Up, Infinite Gacha

# 199

199. Black Seed (7)

I remembered the video of the 4-star promotion match.

There was a throne in the golden palace. However, the figure who appeared to be the emperor did not appear until the end of the video.

So, when I asked Nerissa, Nerissa said that the empire had no emperor since its inception, and that the actual head of the empire was the first heir to the throne. The position of emperor of the empire seemed to be similar to a permanent ban.

[The man brought the four of us together, who were at odds with each other. Even if I didn’t like it, I had no choice but to follow it. Because neither they nor I wanted to die from a dimensional rift.]

The sparrow closed its beak.

[In terms of force alone, the emperor could have been crushed to death with just one of my nails. But we didn’t. He was able to use power that none of us had.]

“…”

[That is the golden lineage.]

The prince inherited that blood.

I had a rough idea of what this guy was talking about.

‘The emperor…’

was able to use interference.

I crossed my arms. Gradually, an outline began to emerge.

‘Did that man also come from Earth?’

interference force.

I was tired of listening to Yurnet.

It was the power to twist the space-time of this world and reverse cause and effect.

The source of that power is…

‘upper dimension.’

The purpose of the game called Pick Me Up and the reason why the Master exists was to obtain the interference power of this higher dimension.

[Originally, no one has been able to use that power since the first emperor, but it seems that something happened when the prince turned into a monster.]

“You mean the blood has awakened?”

[Otherwise, there are no words to explain this situation.]

It’s quite a fantasy story.

I clicked my tongue.

The story that followed was as I expected.

The man used the interference force to merge the four torn dimensions into one. And after gathering the lives of the four dimensions on one continent, he ascended to the throne as the first emperor of the empire.

That’s Taoni.

[Right after the founding of the country, the Emperor did something strange to balance things out.]

“What. Did you all get married?”

[That’s right.]

That was just what I said….

More than that, wasn’t this guy a man?

When I saw him in Advent Dungeon, he looked like a man wearing armor.

As I looked curiously at it, the sparrow spread its wings.

[joy! I am bondi neuter It can change either way. Being a man in front of you was just a whim.]

“…”

[Next time, I’ll appear as a beauty that even flowers can escape. Well, if you like it, I might let you enjoy the technique that captured the Emperor. He also begged me to save him every night and groaned…]

“You don’t have to talk about that.”

[Have you ever been interested? Since ancient times, mating has been…]

“Jaek!”

“I told you to stop.”

I grabbed the sparrow by the scruff of its neck and pressed it.

It’s okay to talk nonsense.

Got the outline.

The emperor married the four ancient races who ruled each dimension and a human woman who was very ordinary. The descendants of the ancient species were the progenitors of the four generations, and the descendants of human women became the imperial family of the empire.

He had five wives.

Four of them are heterogeneous.

He was an eccentric.

Anyway, I think I know why Amkena’s account got weird.

Taoni was not a mere sub-dimension, and there was a special being’s intervention in the process of making it. And this time…

‘Prios all Ragna.’

I thought of a man wrapped in red bandages.

If he inherited the blood of an earthling and that blood awakened for some reason, it is not impossible to deviate from the standard.

‘This means that I became the 7th star of the monster series.’

Since he was from his birthplace, he probably didn’t have to eat the Master.

Of course, there will be some differences from normal 7-star heroes. If they are half-hero half-master, then the prince is half-monster half-master.

The pieces of the puzzle are starting to come together.

The reason why Delphine, who was said to be the strongest in the empire, fell into vain.

Originally, the strongest in the four generations would have been her. However, if the prince’s blood had awakened and the prince could intervene in his subordinates, just as the master does to the hero, it would not be unreasonable for the wizard to become significantly stronger.

“The Beast King and the Saint are from different floors, so that’s why.”

[They are floor masters. Originally, you can’t come down from the 40th floor section.]

You’re jumping over the section.

They change their missions arbitrarily. It couldn’t have been a painful sound.

‘I don’t think it’s perfect though.’

Half way out, but not completely out.

If it was completely out of specification, I would have already died.

“Han? I’m almost ready!”

Fria’s voice echoed from behind.

It seems that the time for small talk is over. I came out jointly with Sparrow. Meat was being grilled over a campfire.

“I can’t guarantee the taste. There’s no salt…”

“It’s okay.”

I pulled the rabbit meat on a skewer from the fire.

Baked, but tasted so good. It smells fishy.

“By the way, does that bird not eat?”

“You’re pitiful.”

“poor…?”

Freea looked at me dumbfounded.

I have no intention of making any excuses. I chewed on the meat.

I got almost all the information I needed.

I also found out how the mission was going back now.

My goals haven’t changed.

Find the base of the Beasts somewhere underground and steal the last key piece.

According to Sparrow’s words, each of the three keys is called the Essence of Heaven, the Bowl of Earth, and the Cup of the Sea.

‘The key can only be used by those who inherit the emperor’s blood.’

I looked at Freea.

She was eating meat with a sullen expression.

‘It’s not all bad news.’

Even if they borrowed the interference power, they say that they cannot vacate their hierarchy for long.

In other words, except for Persene, the floor master of the 40th floor, the other two will soon return to their original floor.

Fortunately, the fear of being beaten by three people was alleviated.

“…”

After filling my stomach, I drank water in front of the campfire.

‘What should I do?’

I found out why Taonier got twisted, but nothing changed.

Still I was alone, I had to complete the mission within the time limit, and the enemies were strong.

I looked down.

A sparrow was pecking at a piece of chopped meat.

[You have three paths.]

The sparrow said while diligently pecking.

[The first is to accuse the goddess of this fact. It’s more like your master submitting a bug report, to be exact. Enforcers will probably be dispatched.]

“…”

[In that case, the monsters will return to their original places. The mission may also be modified in the normal direction.]

Amkena has not logged on yet.

If Amkena accessed the pick-me-up and found out about the current situation, there was a high possibility that he would report it. Even if you do not send a bug report and upload a video on the official cafe, Mobius headquarters has no choice but to solve this problem.

To be honest, this method had the highest survival rate.

After settling down, all you have to do is hold out until the head office takes action.

But if that happens.

‘This will give Tell room to intervene.’

Even if another executive came.

If you dig into the game’s logs, you’ll find that there are more than a few things suspicious to me. In the process…

‘The identity will be revealed.’

Heroes belonging to Taonier will also know.

If that happens, it will be difficult for me to keep my footing in Taonier.

You will have to return to Niflheim by force.

Before that, the operators may impose sanctions.

‘The penalty is too big.’

I would never want to use it unless it was the worst of the worst.

What I’ve been building could be destroyed in an instant.

“What’s the second?”

I muttered so that Freea couldn’t hear.

[I’m going to solve it myself. Aren’t you doing well?]

“… Ha.”

[Haven’t you solved the complicated missions before that? He climbed up well after using all sorts of bizarre methods. You can do the same this time.]

It’s easy to say.

Solving it alone, as it has always been.

That’s not wrong.

I have cleared numerous buggy missions.

There was no need to hold back just because it appeared once more.

I just have to trust my judgment and get through it.

Even if I am alone in the capture team, even if there is a lot of baggage attached to it, and even if there are various other penalties, the capture is always present in the mission.

That was the rule of Pick Me Up.

‘Then I saw blood on the 35th floor.’

I chuckled.

“What about the third?”

[If that kid uses interference power, you can respond in the same way on this side.]

I frowned.

“Don’t tell me to use that ability. I don’t know how to do it.”

[I don’t expect anything from you either.]

“Then what is it?”

[There is one more member of the golden lineage.]

The sparrow spread its wings.

As I followed the wings, the figure of Freea with a tearful face caught my eye.

[Using that girl.]

“How?”

[You have to think about that.] He

said there was a third way, so I asked what kind of trick it was.

Since they transcended the monsters due to the blood of the prince, wake up the blood of the princess this time?

So, does it transcend NPCs?

‘Are 7-star heroes and monster NPCs going wild in Taoneer?’

It’s going to be a very good berry mix.

I laughed out loud. You’re talking nonsense.

If you’ve given me the correct way, I don’t know how to do it.

The third method Sparrow said was gambling.

The success rate is obviously close to zero.

If I had no choice, I would consider it, but neither did I.

‘Actually, there’s one more.’

There is a fourth method that sparrows do not know about.

Bringing up my background.

In other words, Niflheim fully intervenes.

“…”

I touched the ring on my left hand.

The three weapon summoning ceremonies were blown away, but the extra-dimensional communication was still valid.

Yournet told me to speak up whenever I needed help. If I ask for help, they will show up smiling, as always.

‘If that happens…’

I can no longer be ‘one Israel’.

Bugs throughout the entire mission.

As serious as this matter is, I will not be able to handle it while hiding myself.

It must be said that the connection between Niflheim and me is unconditionally revealed.

‘I have to leave.’

The first method has the potential to fizzle out.

However, this method was almost 100%.

From now on, I will have to live as Loki of Niflheim, not Israt of Taoni.

This will make life easier and increase survival rates.

There will be many opportunities to become stronger.

Because I’m like a king there.

“…”

I closed my eyes.

If I leave after curing the prince with the help of Niflheim, Taone will return to normal as well.

The difficulty graph, which only climbed steeply, will also draw a downward curve. Even the heroes who fought hard for each mission will be able to fight more comfortably.

‘still.’

It doesn’t last long.

From a certain point in any account, the difficulty increases like crazy.

It doesn’t matter if it’s Taoni or Niflheim. The difficulty level never drops.

Once on the 50th floor, once again on the 60th floor and once more on the 70th floor.

In the process, only a few hundred out of tens of millions of Masters survive.

I calculated slowly.

How far can the current Taoneer go without me?

What percentage is the survival rate of the ranker section.

A conclusion came soon.

‘Less than 10%.’

this was the reality.

It’s not just about skills.

Luck was also an important factor for climbing. During the mission, a PK user might get stabbed in the back, or a boss with superpowers might appear in the main raid team.

If that happens,

Jenna will die.

The same goes for Belquist, Kishasha, Edith and Katio.

Hundreds of heroes in the waiting room are annihilated, and Issel disappears as well.

The Master will also close the game.

For Amkena, Pick Me Up will remain as a bitter memory.

Eventually…

I sighed.

There was a lot of fuss about how to do it, but in the end there was only one option I could take.

If it were me in the past, I would have chosen the fourth option without hesitation, but things have changed a bit now.

‘second.’

I opened my eyes.

“hey.”

[What is it?]

“Tell me about the other abilities of the Black Dragon Blood.”
