Raided The God’S Warehouse [EN]: Chapter 431

431

“I was so surprised, I thought it was going wrong because of me.”

“No, thanks to you, I was able to meet the conditions easily.”

After the boss monster disappeared, I saw Lee Haneul, who was holding her hand over her chest and letting out a sigh of relief.

It seemed she was quite surprised to have missed the boss monster after the closed ward was unlocked.

“I guess… this is the reward?”

A small flower had bloomed in the spot where the boss monster disappeared.

Since there was nothing in this cavern other than roots and a sinner from the start, it was easy to guess that the flower was the reward left by the boss monster.

[ Arrun’s Holy Flower ]

I could only check the name, probably because I hadn’t collected it yet.

‘Holy Flower?’

However, there was one thing I could guess.

In the conversation with the sinner, Hwan-su described Arrun as ‘a flower that blooms to praise God.’ In other words, a Holy Flower.

Seeing that it specifically includes the title of Holy Flower, could this be the real body of Arrun?

The moment Se-un was about to pick up the Holy Flower to check more detailed information.

“Wait a minute.”

Lee Haneul hurriedly approached and stopped Se-un.

Se-un was able to realize his mistake.

‘Why did I do that?’

This is a reward left behind after a boss monster that was so powerful in a dungeon of this difficulty died.

As it is named Arrun’s Holy Flower, it may be a key item in this 62nd floor trial.

To try to pick such an item without even observing it properly. It was a mistake that Se-un would never normally make.

It was as if he was possessed by something.

“…Thank you.”

“It’s nothing. I’ve been collecting various plants, so I’ve developed a habit of being careful. I think it might be absorbing power like the roots by luring the surrounding creatures.”

I was careless.

I didn’t realize it properly because my senses were a little dull from being heated up by the battle until just now.

Se-un took a step back, calmly took a breath, and entrusted the collection to Lee Haneul.

Since Se-un was also encountering the flower for the first time, he decided that he should leave it entirely to Lee Haneul in this case.

“This is similar to the characteristics of the roots.”

When Lee Haneul poured out a red liquid from her hand, the Holy Flower absorbed the liquid like it was starving.

If Se-un had rashly touched it, his power would have been absorbed like that.

“Besides, the roots are also connected to the floor. At this rate, the moment you separate it from the roots, it seems like it will wither or disappear immediately….”

– The constellation, ‘Bloody Lion,’ is resting his chin and contemplating.

– The constellation, ‘Bloody Lion,’ judges that the Holy Flower is like the dungeon itself, so it is impossible to collect the whole thing.

“I think so too. Then….”

Lee Haneul began to collect in earnest.

However, she did not try to collect the entire flower like in the conversation with Marbas.

Instead, she carefully removed the petals from the Holy Flower, where the most power was concentrated.

Swish-

Of course, even this was not an easy task.

She had to wrap the red liquid around both hands to prevent the power from escaping and perform special work to prevent the petals from withering immediately.

Drop.

“Hoo….”

– The constellation, ‘Bloody Lion,’ advises that it will take a long time as the consumption of power is greater than expected.

“Yes, I will.”

There is no way to prevent power from being absorbed by Arrun.

Therefore, Lee Haneul used the red liquid to replace the loss of power, preserve the petals, and collect them, but the amount of power consumed was enormous.

She had to take a sufficient rest every time she removed a petal.

Since there are 6 petals of Arrun, it seemed like it would take some time.

So, in the meantime, Se-un decided to look around.

‘It’s going to collapse soon.’

The dark brownish-black roots were turning blue and dying.

Perhaps it was because all the sinners had disappeared and there were no nutrients to absorb.

The giant flower called Giant Arrun by the players was being maintained by the nutrients absorbed from the immortal sinners, not the nutrients from the earth.

‘With this kind of form, there doesn’t seem to be a treasure chest or anything.’

It was created with the natural characteristics of Arrun’s roots.

Excluding naturally generated things like Arrun’s fruit, which was collected while reaching this place, there didn’t seem to be any artificial rewards.

While looking around the inside of the cavern, Se-un saw something.

‘This is?’

The spot where the sinners were being sucked of nutrients.

Something was shining in the spot where their unstable bodies collapsed and the land made of roots was stained.

When he approached and removed the slimy liquid, its identity was quickly revealed.

[ Unicorn Horn Fragment ]

Unicorn.

It is one of the rare species that is hard to see even in the Tower.

Although the shape of the horn is not complete, it was a material with a high value.

‘Maybe?’

The total number of sinners in the cavern was ten.

There were also ten traces of souls being cut by Death Scythe [a weapon associated with the Grim Reaper] and immortal bodies collapsing.

When Se-un searched the ten places where the slimy liquid flowed down, he found traces left by the original owners in each of them.

‘Rainbow scales, burning feathers, a fang of a spirit tiger….’

All of them are key materials that can be obtained from well-known mythical creatures or spiritual beasts.

Although the condition of all of them was not good because their bodies were unstable, they clearly contained the unique energy of the mythical creatures or spiritual beasts.

‘This is a bigger harvest than I thought.’

Just making one of these into a necklace and wearing it would exert considerable power.

But what if I entrust this to Go Chang-seok? I wouldn’t know, but I think he could make an item of at least S-class or higher.

Moreover, Go Chang-seok has recently expanded his field of production to include accessories and is trying to make more diverse items, so it was a highly anticipated matter.

– The Treasure Trove of Greed has been opened.

[ Holy Light ]

– A flame magic of the White Tower that creates sacred flames. Although it is called flame magic, its shape is only close to flame, and it does not harm any good beings.

The pure white flames raised by Se-un flew towards the traces of the sinners.

The turbid liquid left by the sinners burned in the sacred flames and gradually reduced in size.

No matter how immortal the body was, the owner of the body had already disappeared.

Since the trace was already close to negative, the sacred flame burned like it had met firewood.

This was the last consideration Se-un could give to the dead mythical creatures and spiritual beasts.

“What are you doing?”

“Just. There are some materials that will be helpful for alchemy, so I’ll give them to you at the rest stop. How about the collection?”

“Fortunately, it ended earlier than I thought. Thanks to you, I’m exhausted, but it’s okay because Se-un will protect me, right?”

“There won’t be anything dangerous. It’s over now.”

“Then….”

Rumble-

Before Lee Haneul could finish speaking, the entire dungeon trembled.

Looking around, more than half of the roots that were already turning blue and withering were turning black and dying.

Since the roots that made up the dungeon were dying, it was natural for the dungeon to collapse.

“Oh, what should we do?”

“There, the exit is opening.”

Of course, since the dungeon was successfully cleared, there was no chance of being trapped and dying in the collapsing dungeon.

The wall on the opposite side of the cavern, where the boss monster appeared, collapsed and bright sunlight seeped in.

“Did you take everything you needed?”

“Of course.”

“Then, let’s go.”

Se-un and Lee Haneul left the dungeon behind the traces of the sinners that had been completely destroyed by the sacred flames.

* * *

At that time.

Rumble!

A great chaos was occurring in the 62nd floor trial.

“What, what is it!”

“What’s going on?”

Suddenly, the entire forest was trembling, and the monsters were also running around anxiously.

Since the proportion of plant-type monsters in the shaking forest was enormous, it looked as if the entire forest was moving.

The players couldn’t help but be embarrassed.

They grabbed nearby trees tightly or lay flat on the floor, wondering if an earthquake had occurred.

Meanwhile, some players suddenly wondered about the sunlight shining from above.

“This is under Arrun, but why is there sunlight…?”

The center of the trial, so-called Arrun’s area.

Since the petals of Giant Arrun were so huge, there hadn’t been a day in the past month when sunlight had properly entered this place where the camp was set up.

What on earth was going on?

The man couldn’t resist his curiosity and raised his head to look at the sky where the sunlight was shining.

And, he was shocked.

“A, Arrun! Giant Arrun!”

“Don’t make a fuss and hold on to anything!”

“Arrun is withering!”

“What nonsense… what?”

At the man’s words, all the players around him raised their heads. And all their expressions were filled with shock.

Giant Arrun, which had always covered the sky with its wide petals, was rapidly withering as the man said.

Even if it was another plant, Arrun was the core and mainstay of the 62nd floor trial.

Arrun is withering?

It was logically impossible.

Those who were climbing up through Arrun’s stem and challenging the trial were feeling this even more.

“Why are these guys suddenly like this?”

“Vines aren’t coming out either.”

The guardians who had been plantified by Arrun’s pollen and were blocking the players’ path were also rapidly losing their vitality and collapsing.

The vines that kept popping out of the stem did not come out either.

This was good news, but there was also bad news.

“T, the stem is withering!”

“The stairs too!”

“Damn it, run! Run somehow!”

Not only the petals but also Arrun’s stem was turning blue and withering.

Naturally, the stairs that grew long next to the stem were also crumbling from the outside.

Those who were still at the beginning gave up climbing and came down, and those who had reached the end gritted their teeth and ran upwards as the guardians’ interference disappeared.

Those who were stuck in the middle panicked and had to figure out how to survive.

Still, the speed at which Arrun withered was not so fast, so if they kept their minds straight, they could avoid the crisis.

Besides.

“This way!”

“I have set up shock absorption magic! Feel free to jump down!”

62nd floor trial.

Especially in front of Arrun, there were many cases where many players were setting up camp to attack the trial.

As a result, even if they were not in the same guild, they shared and helped each other with the attack methods, and there were many cases where they shared affection.

Thanks to them joining forces and helping each other, there were no deaths due to Arrun’s collapse.

Thud!

Finally, Arrun collapsed.

Although it had withered, the forest that had been in the place where Arrun had fallen was completely covered with Arrun because its size was so huge.

“What on earth is going on….”

“Then what happens to the trial now?”

In a situation that no one had expected, all the players on the 62nd floor put down their weapons with blank expressions.

It was like being a dog chasing a chicken [a futile endeavor].

However, among them, only the Diablo guild members who were still climbing the 62nd floor trial could quickly guess the reason why Arrun had collapsed.

– You have destroyed the ‘Fierce Flower Arrun’ in the 62nd floor trial, the Shaking Forest.

– The Diablo Guild’s tendency, ‘Savior of Destruction,’ is strengthened.

– All buffs of the guild are strengthened due to the strengthened guild tendency ‘Savior of Destruction.’

“Our guild leader must have done something again.”

Not only the message that appeared in front of them, but there was only one person who could do such a thing in the first place.
