Chapter 121 [Episode 62] Dark Black Wings 2
“Black Flight!”
Sang Hyuk summoned the Dark Black Wings and used Black Flight straight away. Then from behind Sang Hyuk’s back, the big black wings unfolded and Sang Hyuk’s body flew over the sky.
Black Flight allowed Sang Hyuk to fly, but it could not fly without limits.
50 meters from the ground. All of the flight skills in EL were up to this point. He could fly at higher altitudes with the aid of a vehicle, but it was the same that it could not escape the 50 meters using the vehicle.
Strictly speaking, he could escape. However, when he rose above 50 meters, his health and vitality dropped by 2% per second, so he could die almost instantaneously.
Sang Hyuk soared through the sky and looked down at the iron golem looking at him from the ground.
In the case of monsters who can not fly and had no long-distance attack, it was impossible for the monster to attack Sang Hyuk. And if this state were maintained for exactly 10 seconds, the health of the iron golem was recovered instantly to 100% as the battle cancelled.
In other words, it was impossible to fly into the sky and hunt iron golems safely.
However, while Sang Hyuk was hunting for iron golems, he used the Black Flight to learn how fast he could activate the flight skill during battle.
Sang Hyuk was hunting the Iron Golems while making the Dark Black Wings completely his own.
“It’s much faster than I thought.”
If it was this level, it seemed to be enough to be used for movement during battle.
“If I can stretch and fold the wings in a single second after a little bit of mastery, then I think it’s possible to use it instead of jumping.”
Sang Hyuk thought of the possibility of such a thing and folded his wings again and turned off the Black Flight.
Sang Hyuk had always emphasized that no matter how good a weapon is, if one did not know how to use it properly then it would be a big fail.
Especially, Magic Armor was a thing with a completely different mechanism than existing weapons, so if you are a first-time user, you have to work hard for at least a few months before you can adapt properly.
Of course, thanks to his previous experience, Sang Hyuk simply adapted in a matter of days, not months, but it was possible because Sang Hyuk was a regressor.
“By the way, the mood is heightened nowadays, so should I sell the Lion King’s Fury?”
Magic Armor was an item like a pie in the sky for 99% of the users. But the top-level users have already created and begun using Magic Armor.
Of course, the information about Magic Armor coming from them was exciting for a lot of users.
Especially, the concept of amplification was a concept that did not exist until now, and it was possible to use the amplification ability to accomplish things that seemed impossible in the past.
Even the lowest-grade 1st class Magic Armor had gain of 30%, and although it doesn’t look like much actually it’s not just getting 30% stronger, it’s almost 50% stronger, so even with just the lowest-grade Magic Armors, you could succeeded in a previously failed raid and you could beat an opponent who you’ve never won against.
As a result, the Magic Armor’s worth kept going higher. There was a word everywhere saying that if you create a Magic Armor, you can enter an entirely different world.
That was the user’s dream.
“Now the 1st level of Magic Armor sold for almost a billion won in reality, right? It’s definitely overpriced.”
In Sang Hyuk’s memory, this Magic armor craze would soon end. In fact, it was not that difficult to build the Magic armor once you learned the hidden information and the tips for making it.
If the material is poor, a 0-grade Magic Armor, which doesn’t even reach 0.5 grade, will be created, but even the garbage-like Magic Armor had a gain of 10%.
Even if it is like garbage, there were people who use it for the amplification alone.
When this kind of Magic Armor with 0 or 0.5 grade is available and supply of the 1st grade Magic Armor increased, then the hot air has no choice but to cool down (the popularity is decreased).
“I have to sell the Lion King’s Fury before the fever(hot air) is over.”
The hot air creates a distorted price. So at this point, the Lion King’s Fury had a value such that the seller can demand any price.
Before the bubble disappeared….. Sang Hyuk was thinking to sell the biggest bubble in the world (the most popular thing).
* * * *
The sales method Sang Hyuk chose was similar to the way he sold the ‘Wyvern Blood’ before.
But the last part was going to be different. After selecting the five finalist bids through an online bidding, he would invite the five people separately and open a VIP auction and he was going to sell that thing as expensive as possible after making them compete fiercely for it.
Sang Hyuk wrote an auction announcement in the name of Gold Mountain to various online communities. This time as well, as the users searched for the Gold Mountain announcement and get a recommendation to read the article, it was easy to publicize the auction.
Naturally, the auction notice also included the image files with detailed information of the ‘Lion King’s Fury’ so the reaction of the users was so explosive that it was not even comparable to when Sang Hyuk was selling the Wyvern Blood.
[2.5 grade Magic Armor? Wow, who created this mad item?]
[What is this? Is what I’m seeing now really an item that exists in the game? Wow…. There are two pluses in the 2.5 grade. This is a scam!]
[Gold Mountain is the seller. Where on earth are these guys getting these crazy items?]
[How much should I pay to buy this??]
[Well… Should you not pay at least two million dollars in cash?]
[What kind of game item costs two million dollars. Nonsense.]
[It makes sense, tho? An extraordinary world that you don’t know will unfold above it. They will try to own that item even if they pay more than 200 million dollars.]
[ (some curses words came out but I don’t know any curse words) I envy you.]
[It says here that Drake Blood was used as a power source…. Even if you sell the Drake Blood only for one billion won, you might get laughed at.]
[I assured you that this item will be sold for more than any other existing items. The amplification rate added by the plus effect is 96%. This is worth calling a scam item.]
[Seriously I want it.]
[Even if sell my house, I can not buy it. Hyuu, if only i was born as the conglomerate’s son then I will directly buy it, tho.]
[Even you have money, it should be hard to buy it, you know? This eventually will be sold in a private auction… So, there’s no way we can win in the final auction if the oil-conglomerate heirs join in.]
•••••
•••••
Because it was like a pie in the sky for ordinary users, they just looked at the image file and drooled.
While the majority of users were drooling, those who were actually able to buy the Lion King’s Fury started to move quickly.
At a time when a 2nd grade Magic Armor with no plus was unavailable at any price, suddenly the 2.5-level Magic Armor with double pluses popped out.
In this case, it might be said that a terrible monster, which almost destroyed the ecosystem, emerged.
It is a natural story, but those who already had Magic Armor, recognized at a glance how outrageous the Lion King’s Fury is.
Of course, the real monster was engraved on Sang Hyuk’s back, but it was not for sale, so no one knew it existed and there was no Magic Armor known to the players comparable to the Lion King’s Fury.
Approximately two weeks ago, a 2nd grade Magic Armor with no pluses was sold for 1.5 million dollars through informal trading. Even that Magic Armor’s options were utter garbage compared with the Lion King’s Fury.
This information was already prevalent among the top-level users.
In that situation, the Lion King’s Fury popped out and of course the top level users had fire in their eyes as they swore to get it.
Magic Armor’s bubble (popularity) reaches its limit now…. The Lion King’s Fury was an item with the performance worth the peak of the bubble (popularity).
“Anyway rather than paying with real money, it’s better to sell it for in-game items….”
Sang Hyuk looked at the auction bids, that packed his mailbox and muttered.
Others will start thinking of selling this kind of item for a huge amount of cash, but Sang Hyuk was not in need of cash.
He had already accumulated a lot of money on his real estate investments some time ago.
“2 million dollars…. 2.5 million dollars…. Ohoo, there is even up to 3 million dollars….”
When Sang Hyuk saw the amazing amounts written in the bidding, he was able to realize how he had inflated the value of the Lion King’s Fury to the players.
“But, I don’t like it.”
The price mentioned were enormous, but Sang Hyuk did not feel like it.
What Sang Hyuk wanted was in-game items.
Certain items in the game. Actually, Sang Hyuk wrote that rare items in the game would be more appreciated than cash in the auction introduction.
But, as always, the items in the game were vital.
The rich users with a lot of money did not want to put out a good item even if they were willing to put out cash.
For this reason, While Sang Hyuk looked for hours at the bids that have been piled up, he had no choice but to find a bid that presented his favorite conditions.
When he searched for about 4 hours like that, finally some conditions that he liked appeared.
“As I expected, rather than the bid of the individual users who are overflowing with money, the bid of the large-scale guilds, that maintain their top-level with the help of their guild forces rather than money, was much better.”
The users who are often said to be oil-conglomerate heirs or other conglomerate heirs have written down a few million dollars as they think that money always works. But Sang Hyuk has ignored such bids.
Rather, Sang Hyuk chose the bidding that would give game items even if it was less valuable
Item, before money.
This was Sang Hyuk’s most critical criteria for choosing a bid.
* * * *
Sang Hyuk finally picked five bidders and contacted them straight away in the game the next day. Then he let them compete again and squeezed them as much as possible.
If the goods that Sang Hyuk was selling was not the Lion King’s Fury, they would not be squeezed like this, but because it was the goods with that much worth then the five gathered bidders fought each other hard.
Even when the person squeezing and the person squeezed knew that they were going too far, but because it was the extraordinary item called the Lion King’s Fury, so they ignored all that.
After all, in a fierce competition, one man, one guild, would became the final winner.
The four losers were forced to swallow their regrettable tears.
One loser, who seemed to be very rich, said he would not be able to compete and raised his bid by another 2 million dollars in additional money, but Sang Hyuk had gone completely to the conditions presented by the winner.
Because that condition could not be replaced by 2 millions dollar cash, so Sang Hyuk did not accept the last raise of the rich loser.
“Well, I still don’t know if this is the right choice.”
Iron Tom, the guild master of the ‘Avengers’ Guild who became the final winner, leaned his head to one side and made a bitter look.
The Avengers Guild has always been a large guild that always had a place when the top 10 EL Guilds were ranked, it was the best guild that represented America with more than 90% of the guild members American.
“If you do not like this exchange, you still say it now. I can exchange it with someone else.”
Sang Hyuk looked at Tom and showed no regret at all. But the truth was different.
“I don’t like them! I’ll deal with you!”
Had Tom guessed that Sang Hyuk really wanted what was offered, then the transaction could have been rather difficult, so Sang Hyuk pretended to be indifferent as best he could.
“Hyuu, no. I’ll exchange it.”
Fortunately, Iron Tom did not even think of breaking deals. The Lion King’s Fury was needed too much for Avenger Guilds now. They have created five Magic Armors at the guild, but unfortunately, none of those five reached second grade.
Because all the materials were used up so it seemed that Avengers would have to give up their ranking among the top 10 EL guilds to another upstart guild.
So, they participated desperately in this auction and eventually became the final winner at the last moment when they let go the ‘thing’ that was cherished so much by the Avengers and held on like a lifeline.
“Here it is.”
Iron Tom took out one large, colorful golden key and handed it to Sang Hyuk.
‘Oh oh! The treasure house key of the lost heroes! It was the treasure that the Avengers Guild had.’
The key that Iron Tom took out was a token. Of course, it was not just an ordinary token, but a token of great value. This key was something that Sang Hyuk, a regressor, only knew of its existence but had no idea how to get it.
But there was one thing he knew for sure.
It was that he could use this key to enter the treasure house of the lost heroes and bring out two things from the treasure house.
A place of a myriads of legendary items.
That’s the treasure house of the lost heroes.
And it was not the only one that Sang Hyuk received.
500,000 dollars in cash and 500 kilograms of adamantium.
He decided to accept both together with the key and gave Tom the Lion King’s Fury.
