Overgeared Chapter 1101:

The elves suffered from a severe gender imbalance .  Despite their long lifespans, they lacked breeding power and had a very small population . They were one of the smallest populations on the planet .  However . . .

“Black thing . . . ?”

“Your old colleague . I need the flesh of the fallen . ”

“Let’s see . I don’t know what you mean . ”

Today, the elves were occupying forests across the continent despite their small numbers .  Why was this possible? That was simple .  It was because they were supreme predators .  As it had been revealed a long time ago, the elves were an upper species beyond the vampires and evil eyes .  What if they didn’t seek harmony but wielded full strength? What if they retaliated every time they were exploited and betrayed by humans?

“Human, this is the final warning . Get out of the forest right now . ”

“Shut up and tell me where the black thing is . ”

“I’ll kill you . ”

If so, the planet would’ve been divided between humans and elves .  Five elves hid in a giant tree while watching the intruder .  They shot at the intruder who had repeatedly disregarded the warning .  There was no hesitation .  After being betrayed once again by the human Kir and after one of the 12 Te fell, the elves awakened .  They concluded that it was impossible to be in harmony with humans .  The elves’ new policy was that they would rather reign over humans and defend their rights and nature .

“Human beings will have to realize this . We will no longer be swayed by you,” the voices of the elves echoed through the forest .  Dozens of arrows turned the man into a hedgehog .  The elves’ arrows were extremely fast because they had the blessing of the wind elementals .

“Cough . . . ” The man coughed up blood .  The name ‘Agnus’ floating above his head shook as he fell down .  He was hit by dozens of beasts that emerged from the bushes .  They gnashed, ripped, and clawed at the man, breaking his bones and destroying his insides .  Blood poured out and stained the forest red .

“Go back . ” The elves killed the invaders and came down from the tree to gather the predators . They looked back as they attempted to return to their original positions .

“It hurts . ” The intruder, who they thought was dead, raised himself up . His mouth twisted as he turned his neck in a bizarre direction toward the elves . “It is annoying if you hide in the trees . ”

“You . . . aren’t a human . ”

Every life had an end .  The notion of creating opportunities from death was contrary to providence .  The elves got a chill down their spine and started to step back .  As beings beyond death, they felt a strong rejection to it .  The elves’ white skin contrasted with the dark hands that emerged from the ground .  The hands grabbed all the elves and beasts in Agnus’ sight and absorbed their health, swelling and becoming more powerful .

“Uh . . . Kuoock . . . ”

The elves with eternal youth started to age rapidly . The beasts had all their health drained, and they died .  Meanwhile, Agnus was recovering from all his wounds .  This was due to the transfer of vitality from the elves and beasts to Agnus .

“You persevered for a long time because of your long life . ” The elves, who didn’t die immediately like the beasts, delighted Agnus . He approached the elves who were now completely old and grabbed the wrinkled neck of a white-haired elf .  “Looking at the color of your hair, it is the same lineage as that black thing . I truly came to the right place . ”

“K . . . Kuock . . . ”

“Tell me the whereabouts of the black thing . Then I’ll kill you painlessly . ”

“ . . . Shut up . I . . . I don’t know . ”

“Really? Then I’ll have to set the forest on fire to find her . ”

There was no madness in Agnus’ gold eyes as he literally strangled the elf to death .  With only one step left to achieve his dream, he was cautious and calm, unlike before . This meant he was even more brutal .  He slaughtered all the remaining elves and turned his attention to the center of the bizarrely tranquil forest .

“Come out, Beniyaru . ”

A dark elf, the first elf to accept demonic energy—her special body would be a wonderful vessel when combined with the Stone of Life . . .  

Agnus walked into the deep forest while feeling convinced by the information he had received .  His dry hands held a portrait of his former lover .

Thanks to Grid, Teruchan was able to improve his characteristics and obtain new weapons .  Not only did his attack power, defense, and health co-efficient rise, but he also gained the skills ‘5 Joint Attacks’, Bisect, and Crush which didn’t consume mana .

“Wow, it is hard to win . ”

Grid had requested for a duel against Teruchan while waiting for Greed to proliferate, and he suffered a series of defeats .  Did he find it unpleasant? Of course not .  Grid was so happy that he wanted to cry .  The **** game formula of ‘the strongest enemy will weaken the moment they become an ally’ was broken .  Grid was pleased and grateful for his new colleague Teruchan’s outstanding performance .

‘The people who can beat him can be counted on one hand, regardless of whether they are players or NPCs . ’

As King Maxong had demonstrated, the ‘peak of the species’ was better than the usual nameless NPCS .  In fact, Teruchan was a huge level 500 NPC .  There were few people in the world who could stand up to Teruchan wielding Failure, which weakened enemies more than 10 levels lower than the user .

‘I think Piaro and Mercedes can easily beat Teruchan . ’

They were immune to fear and could see through all of Teruchan’s skills . The two of them also had high stats, so they wouldn’t be too affected by Teruchan’s stats .  Of course, the racial characteristics of the ‘orc’ would put Teruchan ahead in strength and stamina .  

“Let’s stop . I’m so tired that I can’t move a finger . ” Grid reached out in order to declare his surrender .

On the other hand, Teruchan was robust .  As expected of the orc lord, he didn’t seem tired .  “Grid .  Gruruk .  I would’ve lost if you had fought seriously . ”

“Haha, you don’t have to comfort me . I’m glad to have lost to you . ”

Teruchan was very caring despite only being 19 years old .  Grid smiled and brought up the information of the God Hands .

The new God Hands had a significantly improved performance compared to the old God Hands .  Yes, it was only improved .  There were no special changes .  It was natural .  The God Hands were items modeled after Grid’s hands .  The essence of the God Hands was to reproduce Grid’s hands, so there was no reason for any special changes . The moment a change was made, they wouldn’t be the God Hands anymore .  

‘Don’t blur the essence . ’

Grid reiterated again and again that Hexetia coveted the God Hands .  He was very pleased that even a **** coveted an item that reproduced his hands .  Myth . . .  

He couldn’t help realizing that he was reaching the realm of the gods .

‘Will I really become a **** when I reach the myth rating?’

In the past, he didn’t seriously consider this type of question .  Now that he knew the reality of the gods, he was seriously curious .  In Satisfy, the gods weren’t almighty beings .  That’s why players could become gods as well . . .

Grid was troubled by the thought .

‘I want to increase the quantity of the God Hands . ’

There had been limits to controlling the four God Hands .  However, the new God Hands were items that made judgments and moved on their own .  It was helpful enough to leave them unattended without controlling them .

‘I will be invincible if I make 100 . . . Of course, that isn’t possible . ’

The balance . . .

It was clear that some penalties would occur using the excuse of the game balance .  He had to check how many God Hands he could hold .

‘Okay, let’s make a helmet and then some God Hands for a while . ’

Grid was still using the degraded item, the Cone Helmet . It was uncomfortable, and he wanted to quickly change the helmet .  Of course, it was a plan that could only be implemented after Greed proliferated .

‘Until then, I’ll decide where to use the Water Clan King’s Tear . No, it would be better to keep it for now . ’

The Water Clan King’s Tears . . .

Previously, it was used to assign Magic Missile to the God Hands, but Grid’s current intelligence exceeded 3,000 .  Even though the second class ‘Great Magician’ was changed to ‘Duke of Wisdom’, Grid still hoped to learn Fireball .

‘Once Braham wakes up, he’ll see my increased power and teach me new magic . I’ll keep it in preparation for then . . . ’

The tears of the water clan’s king were rare .  He used to get one lot every five months, but recently, it was only once a year .  It was because the number of times Maxong cried had reduced .  He missed his dead daughter, but as a king, he declared that he should take care of his people .  

‘It is unfortunate but also a good thing . Well, I’ll leave the tears for now . If I use and disassemble then, I can’t overlook the possibility of them being damaged during the decomposition process . ’

Learning new magic . . .

It was on the premise that Braham woke up, but Grid decided to feel hopeful .  He believed that the more his intelligence rose, the more Braham’s soul would be restored and that Braham would someday wake up .

‘Okay, let’s hunt during this time . I have to work hard for Braham . ’

It was at this moment when the determined Grid stood up that . . .

“Hey . ”

“ . . . ?!”

A girl appeared without warning .  It was a girl whose presence made even Teruchan freeze .  The dragon child—it was the appearance of Nefelina, who was a hatchling .

“W-Why did you a shabby person like you come to this precious place?” Grid was so panicked that he twisted his words .

Nefelina frowned and brought up the main story .  “The movements of the different species and the attitude of the great evil’s agents have provoked her . ”

“Huh?” Grid was bewildered by Nefelina’s words .  

“The being who was deeply asleep . ”

“ . . . ?”

“The woman who can become the vampire king . ”

“ . . . !!”

“It seems that she is interested in the world . ”

What a bolt from the blue? Once the absolute being of a different dimension was suddenly mentioned, Grid became speechless .

Nefelina warned, “I don’t want to lose my current home . You have to soothe her well . ”

This was the end .  Nefelina left without any further explanation while Grid, who was left behind, became as stiff as a stone statue .
