Overgeared

“Protect the people well.”

“I understand. Master just has to believe in me, nyang.”

A cat was sitting on Grid’s shoulder. He had shining white fur, a plump belly, and pink jelly-like soles. The blacksmiths knew the identity of this cat. He was the best demonic beast of hell, a memphis. Noe had inherited some of the characteristics of a dragon, boasting a high level of intelligence and flying ability. He was a monster that overwhelmed the wyvern in all ways, even the crude breath. Only one out of two billion players had a memphis. The strongest pet was known to be tamed by Grid.

‘Cute.’

Noe was licking his fur. He seemed to have a very clean personality. Occasionally, he would rub against Grid’s cheek in an adorable manner. However, the blacksmiths didn’t rush toward Noe.

“Kyaong!”

It was because Noe revealed his predatory nature to everyone except for Grid. Over half the steel jiangshi who jumped over the walls were beaten by Noe’s front paws.

“Gulp.”

Noe broke rocks and knocked down the steel jiangshi with one blow. The Overgeared Skeletons also broke the bones of the steel jiangshi, while Randy dealt the final blow to the jiangshi who couldn’t get up. There was also the light elemental and the golden blade that protected the blacksmiths.

Grid’s pets and items could be considered as a perfect party. Grid didn’t have to lift one finger, and the safety of the blacksmiths was secured.

The blacksmiths looked hopeful, feeling optimistic that they could clear the forced linked quests. This was when the blacksmiths realized why the Overgeared members trusted and praised Grid so much. However, Grid was feeling frustrated. ‘Where should I go?’

He had to find and rescue 30 residents surrounded by the poison jiangshi. These were the contents of Grid’s ongoing quest. The time limit was only one hour while the ruined city was huge, and it was hard to find people. The range of Magic Detection was limited compared to the size of the city. Moreover, the moment the quest started, the dense fog blocked his sight, which meant he couldn’t find them using Fly.

‘This...’ Grid noticed there was only one way to clear this quest.

They had to scatter. He and the 100 blacksmiths had to move through the fog directly to find the residents. Otherwise, it would be impossible to clear the quest.

‘If it wasn’t for the good rewards...’

The jiangshi appeared constantly. The blacksmiths couldn’t fight and win against the jiangshi. It was a quest which led to the blacksmiths being scattered... It was for certain. This wasn’t a quest to be cleared. The rewards were so great because the quest was unreasonable.

‘It is ruined.’

Feeling frustrated, Grid turned to look at the faces of the blacksmiths who followed him. They were people that Grid had brought here. Failing the quest was a betrayal of their trust. This wasn’t the result Grid wanted.
