Episode 689 Mystery (3)
No. 777 Makairo’s storage box
A ‘consumable’ number item that is not very common among all numbers.
Even though it is a consumable item, it feels completely different from ‘Nameless Statue’ or ‘Dragon Blood Wine’.
Things like wide-range healing or powerful combat buffs that you can get when taking them are completely ‘one-time’, but at least this one isn’t like that.
‘In some ways, it’s similar to the 7777 Garpas necklace.’
When used, Makairo’s storage box can grant you a random item or permanent buff.
Well, there are times when the odds of a ‘blank’ result are really low.
anyway·
“I found many unexpectedly valuable items on this expedition.”
From numerous expensive byproducts to the siege killer and the ‘mystery box’ that we just got.
If you were to explore a normal labyrinth, you would be lucky to get just one, but you are continuously obtaining things.
Is this why people must explore unknown territories?
“It’s going to be so much fun if it comes out randomly! Let’s quickly roll the dice!”
However, the only regret is that since I am traveling with Baekho Lee’s team, I have to compete with them every time I get loot.
If I had led our clan, I would have just distributed it as I pleased.
“It’s been a while since I rolled the dice, so it’s fun.”
“Baekho… How about we each take a turn this time? I want to try rolling it too… Even Baekho has bad luck, right?”
“···Me? Am I unlucky?”
“······”
“Okay, let’s each take a turn this time.”
After the situation was sorted out, I quickly rolled the dice without wasting any time.
and····
“Poohahahaha! If we had chosen lower numbers, we would have split 1st and 2nd place!”
The number for me and Baekho Lee was 5.
Oh, by the way, add the sum of the two numbers together.
“The sum is 11······ I won!”
Anyway, just to tell the result, GM won the dice and got the ‘mystery box’.
“What are you doing? Aren’t you going to look right now?”
“Are you talking about here and now···?”
“Wow, you have no manners? Then you weren’t going to tell me?”
“Hahaha! Lord Havelion! Don’t be like that, open it right now. Shouldn’t there be some fun like this?”
GM looked like he wanted to try it out when he was alone, but he couldn’t resist the urging of others and ended up nodding.
“Then··· I will open it…”
GM touches the box with a nervous look on his face.
As I raised my hand, a black cubic box that was touching my hand slowly floated into the air.
“Yurven Havelion used No. 777 Makairo’s storage box”
A box that floats in the air and peels off like one side of a cube.
Swaaaaaaaaaahh …
Soon the ‘thing’ hidden inside was revealed.
“···armor?”
The armor came out.
“Was there such a number item···?”
Never seen before·
***
「No·???? Aegis’s Dragon Armor is created·」
***
The appearance of the armor was very ordinary.
A vest-type armor that covers only the torso, which is absolutely not worthy of the adjective “flashy”.
It is a color closer to a dull gray than iron, and there are no decorations such as jewels or engraved patterns.
But is that why···?
‘···It looks like some kind of set item·’
No. 3 Aegis’s Wall and something are in sync.
When I actually put it next to me, the colors seemed to match perfectly····
‘It was time to change my armor anyway…’
I am currently wearing a cuirass made of lithium.
Right now, the bare stats are not enough, so rather than spending money to get it, I decided to hold out until something more suitable comes out.
but····
Churp·
For some reason, my mouth is watering.
I still don’t know anything about the identity of that armor, though.
That’s true too, right?
There’s no way something from a ‘mystery box’ could be worse than a multi-million stone light-alloy breastplate—
“Why are you looking at me like that···?”
You can look at it too.
“Can I try it on?”
“···yes?”
“Anyway, there’s no one else who’ll wear the armor besides me.”
“Oh, no? After hearing Mr. Flyer’s story, I wish I had a suit of armor for emergencies—·”
Oh, what kind of wizard would wear heavy armor?
If you’re a wizard, you should wear something like a suit of armor.
“So you’re saying you’re just going to try it on once? Who said you were going to take it away?”
As I approached and glared at him, the GM nodded with a reluctant expression.
“Shouldn’t we be experimenting with armor anyway?”
“Yes… Then… Are you just going to try it on…?”
“Have you ever seen me lie?”
At first glance, it may seem like a takeaway, but in fact, this isn’t such a bad proposition for GM.
Wasn’t it an armor whose identity was unknown to begin with?
Someone needs to try it on and test its capabilities.
‘If my fighting power increases right now, it will benefit the team, right?’
The only position that can wear heavy armor is Aures, but he cannot wear armor due to the skill mechanism.
To put it simply, I am the only owner…
“The character is wearing No·???? Aegis’s Dragon Armor·”
Oh, first of all, the fit is amazing?
“Comprehensive item level increases by +13600”
I don’t know if it’s just my imagination, but I feel like it’s gotten a lot stronger.
“Wearing two or more Aegis relics”
“Fragments of the Soul Resonate (2/3)”
“All playback speeds are greatly increased”
“The equipment has been assigned to the wearer.”
‘···uh?’
What is this?
Suddenly, I felt like the armor was sticking to my skin…
“Not bad”
Anyway, even though it’s my first time wearing this equipment, it doesn’t feel unfamiliar at all.
Should I say that it felt like my body the moment I put it on?
“Wow, this Baron just puts on something he doesn’t even know what it is. What if it’s a cursed item?”
As I was stretching my body as if doing gymnastics, Baekho Lee looked at me with a look of bewilderment.
But I had nothing to say either.
Well, I didn’t have any anxiety or doubts. I felt like it was mine the moment I saw it.
“Anyway, you can figure out the equipment performance chart yourself later… For now, let’s move on, okay?”
“i get it·”
I would have liked to test out the new armor’s capabilities, but it would have been a nuisance to waste everyone’s time just because of me.
“Come on, let’s go. If there’s a time limit gimmick or something, it’ll be a pain.”
I decided to investigate the armor little by little and
‘Why is this kid so mentally weak?’
But it was fortunate that he didn’t show that kind of attitude to me…
That ended after a few more days.
“Baron, give me your armor.”
“···what?”
“That would be the case. There’s nothing else besides that armor. Since it’s something I got here, maybe the escape route is hidden in that armor?”
The attitude was a bit unpleasant, but…
If you look at it without any emotions,
“···That’s not a wrong statement·”
It was a story that sounded plausible.
