    Episode 151

    What Zeke discovered was the sun emblem engraved on Agamemnon’s mask.

    “I never thought I’d find that badge here.”

    It was not known when this site was built but it was likely built at least before the Golden Age.

    Zeke looked closely at the part where the sun emblem was engraved.

    “Hmm.”

    It was engraved with the image of the sun’s veil floating at the highest point and countless shooting stars falling beneath it.

    “What does this mean?”

    Unlike the murals of the Jo-in tribe which were like written records the relief murals were abstract and symbolic making it difficult to understand the content.

    ‘I’ll write it down for now and ask the hermit later when I meet him. He might know what it’s about…’

    Zeke passed the place where the relief mural was and found a door.

    “Do we have to go a long way again?”

    Zeke opened the door and went inside.

    The inside looked like an old temple or a royal tomb.

    The walls and pillars were intricately carved with various patterns.

    ‘What the hell is going on here?’

    Strangely the system did not recognize this site.

    When the door first opened it only recognized the title Knight of Light and did not register as an administrator like other shelters.

    “Is this a temple older than that one?”

    Then something appeared to move in front of Zeke.

    ‘That’s?’

    Kookookookook!

    To his surprise the golem approached Zeke.

    [Security system is activated.]

    [Administrator authentication is not possible.]

    [The golem excludes unauthorized personnel.]

    A message window popped up noisily.

    Kookookookookook!

    The golem whose entire body was made of gray stone looked completely different from the guardian that had become Zeke’s summon.

    Its size and appearance were very similar to that of a Barbarian.

    Doo doo doo doo!

    The golem ran towards Zeke.

    The golem approached raised both fists and swung them at Zeke.

    Kwakwakwakwang!

    Zig lightly deflected the golem’s fist with his palm. It was the infinite chain technique left behind by Fab Valencia.

    ‘A golem with a simple attack pattern. It’s a good opponent to practice your skills against.’

    Woohoo!

    An infinite chain of swordsmanship that allows you to perform swordsmanship without holding a sword.

    Zeke decided to fight the golem with his bare hands without a sword.

    Kuuuu!

    The golem exhaled steam from behind its back.

    Then he quickly threw his fists at Zeke in succession.

    Doo doo doo doo doo doo!

    Heavy stone fists rained down at a speed that was invisible to the eye.

    Zeke used the Welcome Message to dodge the golem’s fists blocking them with his palm and finding an opening.

    Booooooo!

    The golem blew a long stream of steam from its back again.

    Zeke took advantage of that gap.

    His legs and waist formed an axis and his whole body rotated the power being transferred to the blades of his hands.

    Infinite Chain

    Rotational

    Hand cutting

    Zig’s hand charged with the power of rotation cut off the golem’s arm.

    thud!

    The golem with its severed arm hesitated for a moment and then stepped back.

    Zeke stepped forward again.

    Infinite Chain

    Charge

    Prick the fingertips

    Kkwaddudduk!

    Zeke’s fingertips dug into the golem’s heart.

    Wood crack!

    Zig’s hand penetrated straight through and took out the core from the golem’s heart and pulled it out.

    Pishuuk!

    The golem with its core gone was left lying there.

    Zeke gasped as he watched the golem no longer move.

    “Whew. Infinite Chain… I could use it a lot once I get used to it.”

    Especially in a duel with a knight it was perfect for inducing the opponent to let his guard down by appearing empty-handed and attacking his weak points.

    Zig put the core he extracted from the golem into his inventory.

    Golems made in ancient times were much more powerful than those made in the Magic Tower. Skilled magicians could even use hacks to create new golems.

    ‘If I bring it to Paynen it might be possible to create a new golem.’

    As we passed the golem and went down the hallway we came across a staircase leading down to the ruins’ basement.

    It got darker the further down he went but Zeke could see through his eyes into the dark as if it were daylight.

    Zeke felt that this site had a very different atmosphere from the ‘resting places’ he had discovered so far.

    The shelters felt like they were systematically managed through a system waiting for a new manager.

    However I got the feeling that the site of the holy relic was a place that was thoroughly guarded and defended to prevent anyone from entering.

    Zik remembered what the hermit had said in the story.

    ‘Terracan Draker said he brought the relic back here.’

    It occurred to me that perhaps Terracan had set up a system to prevent anyone from entering it to prevent the Holy Grail from being misused.

    After going down the cave for a while Zeke discovered a huge cavity on the map.

    “What is this?”

    Zeke cautiously headed towards the common.

    Zigg who entered the joint was surprised.

    “what’s this?”

    A crystal cave of enormous size spread out before Zeke.

    Giant crystals the size of people jutted out from the floor and filled the cave’s ceiling.

    Zeke was momentarily speechless at the spectacle presented by the gigantic crystal cave.

    He was dazed for a moment but soon came to his senses.

    ‘This is not the time.’

    Zeke began to look around again and discovered traces of a waterway indicating that water had flowed here a long time ago.

    “Water in Death Valley? Wasn’t this place a land of death before?”

    Zeke walked further inside passing among the beautiful crystals.

    At that moment something was detected in Zeke’s eyes.

    He approached a wall made of crystal.

    And I found something in it.

    “ark?”

    A ship several times larger than Drake’s warship was embedded within the crystal wall.

    The ark was embedded in the crystal wall like an avant-garde work of art with only the couple standing in front of it visible.

    The very idea of ​​an ark in an underground cave in Death Valley where there was not a single drop of water felt overwhelmingly foreign.

    Zeke stepped on the crystals and headed towards the ark embedded in the wall.

    Seeing the ark up close gave it a mysterious feel.

    Even though a long time had passed the surface of the ark was as clean and spotless as if it had just been built.

    I couldn’t tell what material it was made of but I could tell it wasn’t made of ordinary wood.

    “Is there a holy relic in here?”

    Zeke reached out towards the ark.

    That was when.

    [Magic detected in the surroundings.]

    ‘Magic?’

    Seeing the system’s warning message Zeke quickly used his stealth skill to hide himself.

    Zig hiding between the crystals summoned the Dragon Tooth Soldier and sent it out to scout.

    Zig looking around with the eyes of a dragon discovered a group approaching with an ominous aura.

    ‘That’s….’

    Boom! Boom! Boom!

    Dozens of armored skeleton knights were advancing in formation.

    Behind him was a black knight riding a ghostly horse with blue flames for a mane and shining eyes and next to him was a lich with a rusted crown and jeweled eyes floating.

    ‘What is that?’

    A legion of undead with a distinctly different feel from Richmond was approaching leading death.

    Then the black knight on the ghost horse pointed towards the direction of the dragon soldier.

    “I can feel the power of the blasphemous one!”

    At his shout the skeleton knights rushed at the dragon soldiers with their eyes flashing.

    Pachin!

    The Dragon Tooth Soldier swung his sword at the skeleton knights who were rushing at him with a speed unusual for a skeleton.

    Then the rich man behind him recited a spell and an ominous aura poured out from the castle.

    Whoosh whoosh!

    A black fireball flew towards the dragon’s fang.

    Kwakwakwang!

    The shock was so great that the summoning of the dragon spirit was forcibly lifted.

    Zeke felt that the formidable power of the undead army required a strategy.

    He took out his iron sword gripped its handle and summoned the Arataso sealed within it.

    ‘Arataso. I have something to ask you.’

    Arataso had no answer.

    Zigg clicked his tongue slightly and breathed the power of the Holy Fire into his sword.

    ‘Kkaaaak!’

    Aratasso’s scream echoed within the sword.

    ‘Answer quickly.’

    Arataso answered in a howling voice.

    ‘Damn it! You are a cursed seed! How dare you approach this Arataso a knight among knights of the Demon World…’

    ‘A black knight with an ominous aura is approaching leading skeleton knights and liches. Who is this guy?’

    Arataso remained silent despite Zeke’s question.

    Arataso opened his mouth hurriedly as he blew the flame again.

    ‘Death Knight! A fallen death knight!’

    ‘Death Knight?’

    Death Knights were something out of a storybook.

    The souls of fallen knights were transformed into death knights through the power of the devil and they were described as beings as terrifying as a plague as they would wander the battlefield forever and bring about ominous deaths.

    ‘If you go to my castle in the Demon World you will have thousands of Death Knights with great power under my command…’

    Arataso began to babble about how great the Death Knights under his command were. Having satisfied his curiosity Zeke took his hand off the sword again and put it in his inventory.

    Then he summoned Richmond.

    “Huh? My lord. What is it?”

    Zeke asked Richmond.

    “Remember when Richmond threatened to turn me into a Death Knight back in the day?”

    “Has that ever happened?”

    Richmond rolled his eyes and flinched.

    “I’m asking if it’s possible for you to create a Death Knight.”

    Then Richmond shook his head sharply.

    “That was just a bluff. Even among warlocks there is much debate about the possibility of creating a death knight.”

    “Are you saying that a normal warlock can’t create a death knight?”

    “I don’t even know if there is a magic that can create or summon a Death Knight in the first place. Maybe it’s the ancient black magicians who made a contract directly with the devil….”

    Zeke nodded after hearing Richmond’s words.

    ‘So if you made a deal with the devil it might be possible.’

    If there were warlocks in the Abyss who had made a direct contract with a demon with a constellation name that was not a clan their power would likely be greater than that of a simple warlock clan.

    Zeke said to Richmond.

    “The undead army led by the Death Knight will soon invade.”

    Richmond was surprised by Zeke’s words.

    “The undead army led by Death Knight?”

    “Yes. We need to set up defenses until they get here. Take out as many undead as you can.”

    Richmond was terrified at the mention of the undead army even though he himself was a demi-rich.

    He was afraid but he was a summoned being subordinate to Zeke so he couldn’t disobey his words.

    Richmond transformed into Demi Rich.

    Then he took out a cane and looked at Zeke with a determined expression on his face.

    “Since we’ve come to this point… I’ll show you the latest research results.”

    “What do you mean by research results?”

    “You asked me to study the staff you brought from the Giant Mountains.”

    “ah.”

    It was the Jik that I had ordered and forgotten about.

    Richmond then rose into the air holding one of the walking sticks he had brought with him.

    Richmond who had climbed up a bit began to wave his cane in the air.

    Richmond summoned something controlling the power of the ‘Rider of Blood and Madness’ that was dormant within the staff.

    Ki-ki-ki-ki!

    The ground shook and crimson skeletons began to emerge from underneath.

    About 40 skeletons came and lined up in a row.

    Richmond looked pleased as he looked at the skeletons summoned by the power of the Rider of Blood and Madness.

    “How is it my lord? Isn’t it sturdy?”

    “How many more times can Richmond pull out these skeletons in the same quantity?”

    Richmond was taken aback by the unexpected question.

    “Uh that that… If it’s the same amount maybe two or three times?”

    “There are too many enemies. Try harder.”

    Richmond bowed his head at Zeke’s firm words.

    Regardless Zig took out the magic bombs from his inventory one by one and put them into the skeletons’ hands.

    Then he summoned the Dragon Tooth Soldiers gave them a potion of Flame Giant’s Breath and placed them in various places in the Crystal Cave.

    “Deploy the Richmond Skeletons forward and hide them underground.”

    “Oh I understand.”

    Richmond buried the skeletons underground as per Zeke’s orders.

    After that Zeke summoned Gurav.

    Krrrrrr!

    Gurav who had grown as big as a basilisk rubbed his cheek against Zeke’s and acted cute.

    “Go to Gurabu and lure those guys out.”

    Grrrrr!

    At Zig’s command Gurav let out a long cry and ran quickly towards the legion.

    Zeke and Richmond hid behind the crystal and observed the situation.

    The tension was rising.

    That was when.

    Grrrrrrr!

    ‘come.’

    Boom! Boom! Boom!

    The undead army appeared.
