145 In the Middle of the Scramble of the Holy Grail 2 (1/2)
Ring-.
• The 'DarkRuna' Guild has succeeded in occupying the first base in the central continent.
• The Guild's Fame has increased by 100 thousand.
• Base Rank: None
• The desolate base must be developed, and the base rank must be raised.
• Suppress the surrounding monsters, and begin internal affairs.
The Guild Master of the DarkRuna Guild, Ilahan, was the strongest person in the Korean server of Kailan both in name and reality.
Ilahan, who put in the first flag in the middle of the central continent, wore a satisfied expression.
”Good. It looks like us DarkRuna Guild will be able to preoccupy this large update as well.”
Ilahan's class was known to be the hidden class 'Magic Swordsman'.
However, because there was no other user besides Ilahan that had this 'Magic Swordsman' class, there was very little known information on it.
No one even knew besides Ilahan whether it was a hidden class derived from the Magician-class or a hidden class derived from the Warrior-class.
Because even Ilahan put all of his information on a private setting like Ian, he didn't pop up on the ranking list either, so no one even knew of his level.
If Ilahan's exact class was revealed, the users speculated that between Red-Flame Magician Remir, who was first place in the Magician rankings, and Shyakran, the Titan Guild Master who was first place in the Warrior rankings, one of them would be pushed back a rank.
”Ilahan, it looks like we will be able to expand to about two more bases soon. Shall I command them to expand more?”
At the words of the man that looked like he was one of the people in the executives of the DarkRuna Guild, Ilahan shook his head.
”No, I don't think there will be a need for that. Since even if we were to increase our bases more, we don't even have enough power to spare to protect it. For now, just suppress the surrounding of the occupied base, and put strength into growing it.”
”Yes, understood.”
As the man that responded turned around and went out of the base station, Ilahan opened his mouth towards a female user that stood next to him.
”Sollin, have you found a lead related to Holdream's Holy Grail?”
At Ilahan's words, the female user called Sollin nodded her head as she replied.
”Yes, I've found it, Master.”
Ilahan asked again with a pleased expression.
”Good. What about the location?”
”The grave of Holdream is inside the ancient ruins that are near the middle area of the central continent. I presume that you will be able to obtain the Holy Grail there.”
Ilahan nodded his head.
”Okay. Sollin, I will pack up about 30 people and head over first. Follow us immediately.”
At Ilahan's words, Sollin momentarily hesitated as she opened her mouth.
”However, Master, there is one problem.”
”What problem?”
”That… There seems to be users that went into the ruins before us. Looking at their flag, I think they are Luspel Empire users.”
The moment he heard those words, Ilahan's eyes shone.
Ilahan opened his mouth with an interested expression.
”Oh-ho…? Were there any guys that had enough ability to enter the middle area of the central continent this quickly amongst the Luspel Empire users?”
Sollin asked carefully towards Ilahan.
”What shall we do, Master? Don't you think we should move as quickly as possible right now? If we lose the Holy Grail, our plans will be quite twisted.”
However, different from Sollin, who wore a slightly impatient expression, Ilahan was wearing an incredibly relaxed expression.
Ilahan grinned as he spoke.
”There's no need to rush, Sollin.”
”Huh…?”
The corners of Ilahan's mouth slightly curled upwards.
”It doesn't matter if we go slowly. We just need to make sure we don't lose them.”
”That means…”
”If they come out carrying the Holy Grail, we just need to steal it from them, so I'm saying that there's nothing to be worried about. Instead, it has become more interesting. I was worried that it would be too boring, too.”
Ilahan untied a sack holding a blue sword that he had wrapped around his waist and handed it to Sollin.
”Head over first with this sword. Don't go into the dungeon, just guard the front. So that you can hit them as soon as they come out, that is.”
Sollin took the sword and asked.
”What kind of item is this sword?”
”It's an item the king has given. It's Offensive Power and Options themselves aren't that good, but it has Summoning Magic on it, so you'll be able to use it quite well.”
Sollin nodded her head as she replied.
”Understood.”
Ilahan called Sollin.
”Sollin.”
”Yes, Master.”
”Luspel scraps, you'll be able to face them even though I don't go there personally myself, right?”
Sollin smiled coldly as she replied.
”Of course, Master.”
The place that Ian's party came into was a place that was the same as a treasure house with glittering gold light decorated everywhere.
However, the problem was that the space was just showy, and in reality, there weren't many luxurious items to be seen.
Even the piles of gold looked like a lot at first, but after distributing it, each person could only take about a little over 50 thousand gold.
Hiding his disappointed heart, Ian moved his feet towards the innermost platform.
'Still, there's the Holy Grail, fortunately.'
On the platform, the golden Holy Grail, which was about the size of a winning trophy of a sports competition, was perched there, and Ian grabbed that.
Since the most important thing right now was Holdream's Holy Grail.
Ring-.
• You have obtained 'Holdream's Holy Grail'.
• You have satisfied the clear requirements of the 'Exploration of the Historical Site of Shikar' Quest.
• Clear Rank: S
• As you have successfully cleared the quest, you have obtained 25 million EXP.
• As you have successfully cleared the quest, you have obtained 100 thousand Fame.
• A new connected quest has activated.
And following that, a quest window popped up in front of Ian's eyes.
• Base Occupation Using Holdream's Holy Grail.
You have successfully killed Holdream and put the Holy Grail into your hands.
The holy water inside Holdream's Holy Grail makes the growth of central continent bases 2 times faster, and it reduces the time it takes to occupy a base by half.
Using the abilities of the Holy Grail, occupy a base.
Quest Difficulty Level: None.
Quest Condition: Unknown.
Time Limit: 7 days
*If the Holy Grail is lost or stolen, the quest will be failed.
*In the case that the stolen Holy Grail is recovered, the quest can be restarted.
Ian read through the message that popped up in a calm and orderly way as he nodded his head.
And for a moment, he was submerged in his thoughts.
'Looking at the fact that there's a precondition in case the Holy Grail is stolen, that definitely means that there is another power existing that is after this Holy Grail… Are there NPCs or monsters that are after the Holy Grail?'
Ian, who had no idea that quests related to the Holy Grail were activated here and there, firstly assumed that there were NPCs or monsters that had their eye on the Holy Grail.
Since it was impossible for a normal user to know of the existence of the Holy Grail if it wasn't for the quest.
