Chapter 174: How to Deal with Betrayal (10)
"Really everything?"
"Really everything."
The Fox made a puzzled expression at my words for a moment, but soon obediently led me to the warehouse.
While going to the warehouse, I explained my Meta System to Choi Garam.
"Oh, something like that exists? Spiritual Power? Fascinating."
"Point Changer... you can buy anything with points, huh."
I explained the Point Changer to the Fox as a bonus.
Choi Garam seemed quite interested in the new concept of Spiritual Power, and the Fox also understood why I asked him to lead me to the warehouse.
The Tower God Cult members we met on the way to the warehouse greeted me enthusiastically, which was burdensome as expected.
"Savior-nim!"
"Yees..."
When I avoided their gazes looking at me with sparkling eyes, I heard Choi Garam snickering next to me.
...I know I look ridiculous even if you don't laugh like that.
I glared at Choi Garam with all my might, but she didn't care.
The Fox moved his steps nonchalantly even in the meantime.
Following behind him, we were standing in front of a warehouse that looked huge before we knew it.
"Opening it."
The Fox manipulated something, and the warehouse door began to open slowly with a creaking sound.
The inside of the warehouse that finally revealed itself was magnificent.
All kinds of items were classified and displayed on shelves, and there were so many that the end of the row of shelves was not visible.
"Look at the scale."
Choi Garam burst into exclamation.
The warehouse was big enough to agree with that statement.
It seemed like anything would be in this place that resembled a logistics center warehouse.
"Then... give me the most expensive ones first."
"Okay."
Well, whether it would become points was most important to me.
The Fox, who laughed for a moment at my bold demand, guided us inside.
As we went deeper into the warehouse, things that looked expensive at a glance were displayed.
Things that were simple shelves changed into cases or dais with some special devices.
"Oh..."
It's getting burdensome.
I thought so, but didn't show it.
Ah, anyway, I have to earn points first!
I decided to be shameless.
Above all, my kids will be safe only if we defeat the Mithril Turtle and clear that dungeon!
Ignoring my pricking conscience, I walked out confidently.
"I'll invest as much as you want. Instead, let our side handle the byproducts from that dungeon."
"Understood."
Even so, it wasn't without burden, so when the Fox said that, I felt the burden on my heart lift a little.
The Fox, who arrived at the innermost part of the warehouse before I knew it, controlled his threads to open the special-looking glass on the display stand.
Flashy-looking weapons and items were pulled in front of me.
"Will this be enough?"
"Hmm... I think I'll know once I try."
I diligently ground up the items.
"Oh, this is...! Isn't this the simple tent the Savior-capturing team used when capturing the Tower?! It's made only with special dwarf technology, so it has enough value as a relic-"
"Give it to me. I'm putting it in."
"Wait!?"
Besides that,
"Th, this is-"
"Give it to me. I'm putting it in."
"Why don't you know what you're grinding up before putting it in?!"
"Anyway, expensive stuff."
"Aigo... I raised the kid wrong..."
"Teacher raised me."
In the middle, there was an incident where Choi Garam criticized me for not knowing the value of relics, but it was okay.
It was worth ignoring.
And about 1 hour later.
"...Is this right?"
"...I think it is."
I depleted about 30% of the warehouse.
Only with precious things, at that.
How much my conscience pricked every time the flashing brilliance of the warehouse disappeared little by little!
"...This Point Changer thing... the efficiency is bad...."
With a dazed expression, I looked at the Metapoint window that barely reached 100,000 points.
[Metapoints: 100,130]
It was even more absurd that it was barely enough.
Points are damn expensive.
Anyway, the work in the warehouse was roughly finished.
We moved our steps to slowly go out of the warehouse.
"Ah, Noona. Here."
Then the Fox handed me gold coins.
A total of 3.
Discs that looked like they were made of sparkling gold.
"...This is?"
I remember.
This pattern. It's a gold coin with the same pattern as the gold coin Na Yuhan took from the memory dungeon.
"It's the Gold Coin of Truth."
"This is the very... but why this?"
"Because I think Noona needs it more. I don't need it anymore."
"Really?"
"If you think it's really useless, change it to points."
"Yeah. Thanks."
The Dungeon on the Right Side of the Scales.
If we just clear that place, we could use the Scales of Truth as much as we wanted.
So this gold coin could be used usefully.
I didn't bother to refuse the Fox's kindness.
My inner self whispered to me asking if I had a conscience, but I could be as shameless as I wanted for the safety of my family.
...Really.
"...If you need anything, make sure to tell me."
"Got it."
...Deciding to do whatever the Fox wanted from me later was an extension of that.
It wasn't because of a pricking conscience.
Family helps each other, originally!!!
The Fox giggled at my words and said.
"Then preparations for the capture are roughly finished?"
"Yeah. I need to buy Mystletainn and get used to it... I think 3 days will be enough."
"Then I'll tell the Black Scales that."
3 days later.
Muttering those words internally, I returned to the Wild Hunt's lodging following the Fox's guidance.
Returning to the lodging and organizing my thoughts, I remembered that too many things happened today.
The thing with Choi Sujeong, the thing with the Black Scales.
But what I should care about more than that is,
"Mystletainn..."
The capture that will happen soon.
I went into the shop window and immediately bought the 'Magic Gun Mystletainn'.
[Magic Gun Mystletainn - 100,000 Points]
As soon as I pressed the button with the image with trembling hands, I saw the points decreasing rapidly.
My points! My points!
I felt like crying, but it was bearable.
Because at the same time the points disappeared, a flashy gun characterized by a jet-black body appeared in front of my eyes.
"...It really works."
I admired its shape, which was the same as the photo I saw in the textbook.
It was filled with colorful patterns enough to be called a decorative gun at a glance.
Various mana stones were embedded colorfully, reflecting light and shining beautifully.
And beautiful patterns close to Art Nouveau style, rounded around each mana stone, were organically connected to each other, giving a soft impression.
But it was actually closer to a decisive battle weapon.
A disposable decisive battle weapon at that.
According to records, Mystletainn emitted insane firepower at once, broke the Mithril Turtle's shell, and then broke.
Because it was made for that purpose in the first place.
Furthermore, that wasn't the end.
"Magic circle...?"
Looking closely at the patterns, they were actually very precisely engraved magic circles.
I clicked my tongue anew at the ignorant financial power of ancient humanity that would have gone into this gun.
Anyway, this is mine now.
The usage method was similar to my original gun, so adaptation seemed easier than I thought.
I checked the condition of the gun again, then put it in my Inventory.
Now all that was left was the decisive battle.
3 days passed quickly.
I got used to handling Mystletainn to some extent.
I didn't use maximum firepower because it would break immediately if I did, but even without that, this gun's basic firepower was crazy.
"It's a waste that it's disposable..."
As expected, should I say it's worth the 100,000 points?
If I had a lot of points, I would have made this Mystletainn my main weapon.
"Can't I shoot it just once?"
"No."
Perhaps because the gun being good was obvious even to others' eyes, Choi Garam also often coveted Mystletainn.
Of course, I refused firmly.
How much is this!
Choi Garam smacked her lips as if disappointed, but withdrew obediently.
"Are you ready?"
Choi Garam and I, who were talking playfully, tensed up again at the words of the Black Scales who appeared with the Fox.
The strange atmosphere surrounding the Black Scales prevented us from relaxing for some reason.
"More or less."
I answered like that and gripped the gun again.
To me, the Black Scales spoke in a voice tinged with laughter.
"Then let's go."
Seureureuk, her soundless steps headed in front of the Fixed-type Gate.
We walked following her, who took the lead as if it were natural.
The personnel participating in clearing The Dungeon on the Right Side of the Scales were the Fox, me, and Choi Garam.
We decided to go with a somewhat simple composition because we didn't want to owe the Wild Hunt, and we already had the firepower to pierce the Mithril Turtle.
"It's doable as long as there's no Mithril Turtle."
"The Floor Boss is the problem."
I nodded at the words of the Fox and the Black Scales.
Soon, we entered the Gate.
And as soon as we entered the Gate,
---!!!!
In the distance, I felt something that looked like a giant mountain moving.
Every time the mountain moved, the ground vibrated faintly.
"That is..."
"It's the Mithril Turtle.”
