Overgeared Chapter 983:
‘Crazy!’ This expression was one of the ultimate exclamations commonly used by modern Koreans . Grid had recently refrained from using it . It was a rather low-grade exclamation for a king to use . Grid wasn’t Huroi . . . So, he needed basic image management . He had no time to care about that right now though .
“Wow, this is really super amazing . My experience is rising at a crazy speed . Isn’t this completely crazy?? Eh? Right, Noe?”
“I dont know what you’re saying, nyong . . . ”

[+4 Lightning Sword Born from Enlightenment and Strong Desires]
The reason why the word ‘Enlightenment’ was attached to the sword was simple . It was due to the presence of the Enlightenment skill .
[Enlightenment Lv . 3]
[-A persistent passive .
-Increases character experience and skill experience acquisition by 10 . 9% and accuracy and evasion by 20 . 3% .
* Skills attached to myth rated items can be upgraded . ]
It increased the experience gained . That’s right . The effect of Enlightenment was like the dragon’s blessing . No, it was better than the dragon’s blessing because the level could be increased . Grid had been using the Enlightenment Sword like it was his own body, but he had overlooked this effect so far . However, the effect of the dragon’s blessing overlapping with Enlightenment was unmatched . The 20 . 9% increase in experience was applied at all times . This was 0 . 9% points higher than the experience buff potion which could only be drawn by Grid consuming a large amount of reputation points .
On the first underground floor of the Galgunos Temple, the skeletons were dying, and Grid’s experience gauge was filling up . In front, Grid was very disappointed when he first came down here . He had expected stronger monsters that gave more experience to appear, but the monsters here were weaker than the war **** follower who had emerged from the grave and the experience given was also lesser .
However, this disappointment was only temporary . Grid’s disappointment soon changed to bliss . Unlike the war **** followers, Galgunos’ skeleton soldiers could be killed quickly . There were five times more of them than the war **** followers, and their speed of respawn was ridiculously fast .
Of course, this wasn’t a good thing from a general standpoint . The durability of the skeleton-based undead might be weak, but Galgunos’ skeleton soldiers were extremely dangerous because they were advanced monsters over level 350 . In particular, they had high attack power in exchange for low health . Their attacks were fast, simple, and accurate . The skeleton soldiers used long spears as their weapon and had a high accuracy and damage . They were threatening to the high rankers who probably had an average defense of 4,000 points .
Unfortunately for them, Grid’s defense power exceeded the average . His stamina stat had only reached 2,400 points, but the +3 Valhalla of Infinite Affection raised his defense by 1,600 points . Grid’s total defense was close to 6,000 . No matter how much the Galgunos’ skeleton soldiers tried, they were like eggs smashing against a rock . Moreover, it was a poisonous rock .
[You have suffered 3,900 damage!]
[The +3 Valhalla of Infinite Affection has emitted poison!]
The skeleton soldiers surrounding Grid were affected by the monstrous poison that spread . Their bones turned green, and they lost their health .
[The option effect ‘Black Flames’ has exploded from the +4 Lightning Sword Born from Enlightenment and Strong Desires!]
Grid quickly struck with maximum speed, and the black flames exploded continuously . “Link!”
“Kyak kyak! Kyakyakyak!”
“ . . . ”
The skeleton soldiers were helpless as the Blade Aiming at the Gods, Randy, the Overgeared Skeletons, and Tiramet helped Grid . They were poisoned, burned by flames, slashed by swords, beaten by fists, had their bones crushed, and were **** by the silver thread . Dozens of skeleton soldiers were incapacitated at once . The large number of monsters that would be disastrous for an ordinary person was a blessing to Grid .
“It is rude to be in front of the best demonic beast of hell!” The few surviving skeletons were killed by Noe, and the finish was perfect .
“I’ll take a break for a moment . ” Grid even had some room to relax .
The Unicorn’s Blessing increased the recovery rate of all resources by 20% . Grid rode Overgeared Corn in the middle of the battle to restore his stamina .
[Status: Annoyed .
Depressed . ]
(I want a female rider, not male . )
. . . The Overgeared Corn seemed to be suffering, but Grid didn’t care . It was better to summon Overgeared Corn as much as possible to raise the level of favorability . Summoning Overgeared Corn during a hunt meant he would receive some experience and his level would rise .
‘Every time his level rises, he likes bringing up his favorite subject . By the way, what are they doing?’
Grid cocked his head from where he was sitting on Overgeared Corn . The Overgeared Skeletons were repeatedly picking up the bone fragments scattered throughout the battlefield . He felt uneasy because they resembled Yerim (Sexy Schoolgirl) whenever she showed up at a department store .
‘Don’t tell me that they want to have those?’
No . Which player in the world would share their miscellaneous items with their pets? The pet system didn’t require it, and he wasn’t Nyangmong . Grid wasn’t such a pushover . Grid hurriedly got off Overgeared Corn, swept up the skeleton soldiers running from one corner with Transcended Link, and then started to pick up all the miscellaneous items . Of course, it included the bone fragments of the Galgunos’ skeleton soldiers that the Overgeared Skeletons had been carefully looking at .
‘They are from high-level undead, so they will sell pretty well . ’
They were thick and ugly pieces of bone . They were so hard that they could be used as material to make defense items . Of course, items made of bone had low durability and were difficult to repair, so Grid didn’t mean to make them .
Clack! Clack clack clack!
The Overgeared Skeletons stared at Grid . These normally insidious guys raised their ⌓ ⌓ shaped eyes and waved their fingers around . One of Overgeared Skeleton Two’s fingers broke off when it hit their jaw, but it picked the finger up and stuck it back on . It healed immediately .
“You . . . Do you really want this?”
Clack! Clack clack!
The Overgeared Skeletons nodded as if they had been waiting for Grid to ask that . Their excitement showed in the speed at which their jaws moved .
“Are you interested in the skeleton bones? Why didn’t you want it before?”
The probability of the Galgunos’ skeleton soldiers dropping bone fragments was around 3% . It was a very low probability for a miscellaneous item, which meant the value of the bone fragments might be more than expected . Grid wasn’t willing to give them the fragments . The Overgeared Skeletons were pets that didn’t have a separate affinity bar, and it wasn’t necessary to give them precious gifts . However . . .
‘Uhh . ’
The Overgeared Skeletons couldn’t speak, but they were high-grade summons that expressed clear emotions . They were pretty cute and listened well, which meant Grid was fond of them . He had great expectations for them in the future . Evolving skeletons . . . They had used the death knight and lich skins during the demon king’s subjugation . Maybe that could actually become that . . .
“Okay . ” Grid was troubled for a long time before pulling something out with trembling hands . They were two bone pieces .
“Take them . They’re gifts . ”
Clack! Clack clack clack!
How happy were they? The Overgeared Skeletons received the bones from Grid and hugged each other before starting to dance . Of course, Grid quickly stopped them . He was worried they would add a ‘dancer’ to their second list of classes . They couldn’t dance, so the Overgeared Skeletons’ shoulders drooped . Then after a while, they checked the bone fragments in their hands and started to place them in the rib cage .
“ . . . Eh?” Grid’s eyes widened at the unexpected behavior . The Overgeared Skeletons were laughing happily after adding one rib bone . The skeletons had become a bit bigger . He wasn’t mistaken . It was a small but tangible change .
***
At Elizabeth’s workshop . . .
“He didn’t come . ”
Before Elizabeth joined the Overgeared Guild, Agnus had invaded her workshop . It was speculated that the purpose of his visit to Reinhardt had been Elizabeth . Now, he was nowhere to be found .
“ . . . ”
Lauel carried Lord while Coke escorted them . The two men were quiet for a while .
“We missed him . ” Faker appeared out of the shadows and reported, “Agnus disappeared after being pursued by the Overgeared Shadows . ”
***
Simultaneously, at a small inn in the market . . .
“You came,” Euphemina said to the **** man who entered the room . His robe fell as he sat down, revealing his green hair . It was Agnus, a person who had caused many problems . He was a murderer currently accused of killing many accessory makers . However—
“You have many injuries . ”
Euphemina wasn’t wary of him . She had found out from their previous meeting that he was different from what the world knew .
‘How many curses did he receive?’
Euphemina’s expression was bad as she examined Agnus’ condition . Agnus was being subjected to all types of curses, such as weakness, poison, and the inability to recover . Yes, curses . Curses involving the ‘story’ or ‘system’ were different from those that naturally recovered over time .
‘The only way to resolve the curse is to kill the cursed target or solve the related story . ’
It was useless to give him potions . Euphemina pulled out a handkerchief and wiped the blood stains off Agnus’ pale face . “You are wanted in seven kingdoms . Do you think it is unfair?”
Agnus nervously brushed off Euphemina’s hand and laughed, “Kuku, who am I to feel it is unfair?”
“You didn’t kill those people . ”
“ . . . ” Agnus’ shoulders trembled . Then he quickly regained his smile . “You don’t have to speak so much . You only came for one purpose . ”
There was a person Agnus loved—the only person in the world who loved him . He wanted to revive her, the woman who had gone through terrible things because of him and ultimately left this world . If only to save her . . .
“I will free Mumud . ”
The strength he had built up by not being a helpless victim… All the power had accumulated over the last few years . Agnus was ready to give up everything .
“Instead, be sure to keep your promise . ” The smile disappeared from Agnus’ face . The madness was gone, and his golden eyes stared straight at Euphemina .
Euphemina didn’t avoid his gaze . “On my honor, I will keep my promise . ”
She was well aware of why the man in front of her had made this choice, and she didn’t plan to betray this man who had suffered all his life . After completing the Mumud Liberation quest, she would be sure to keep the promise .
. . . Even if the outcome of the promise made him more unhappy .
Then the visit was interrupted by the hunters who pursued Agnus from other countries . They had monstrous abilities that wrecked Agnus’ body and soul as they kept chasing him .
“ . . . Kikik, we meet again . ” Agnus stood up and pushed Euphemina out the window . It was his fight . He didn’t want the kid to be pulled into a fight that was impossible to win .
