Overgeared

Chapter 1227

Grid’s gameplay style was very unique. Unlike other people who liked to experience new content as soon as it appeared, Grid often left many situations alone. It was a type of habit. It was a habit sparked by too many failures when attempting to do new content. It was why Grid passively approached new quests and systems.

The same was true for visiting the Tower of Wisdom. What type of privilege was it to be first in the unified rankings? Ordinary players would have visited the Tower of Wisdom excitedly the moment they knew of its existence. In fact, Kraugel immediately visited the Tower of Wisdom.

Meanwhile, Grid pushed the tower visit back. He didn’t feel the need to approach content that he could do at any time. The attitude was completely different from the average player who tried to access new content in order to grow quicker.

“......”

At the S.A Group’s headquarters...

Director Yoon Sangmin watched the situation at the Tower of Wisdom and clicked his tongue. The Tower of Wisdom was clearly meant to be favorable to the Pioneer. It was because if there was a problem in the world like the insane dragon iron, the tower must solve it through the Pioneer. It was the tower’s inclination to cherish and teach the Pioneer. The former Pioneer, Kraugel, had increased his combat power a lot through the process of taking the tower’s tests.

Yes, this was it. The Tower of Wisdom wasn’t designed to just give and give. it was to give content that ‘properly helped’ the Pioneer. This time, the timing of Grid’s visit to the tower was simply breathtaking. Just as he was being blocked from the enlightenment system, he visited the tower and transformed the help he got from ‘appropriate’ to ‘something huge.’ Additionally, he gained great affinity with Hayate due to the presence of the red phoenix’s heart.

“Hayate’s liking for Grid has increased the overall favorability of the tower members. In particular, Biban’s fondness for Grid had increased dramatically.”

“It was due to the favorability that Biban was willing to allow the passing on of the Matchless Heart Technique.”

“Yes, it was great luck that Grid delayed the visit to the Tower of Wisdom.”

“Hrmm...”

Director Yoon Sangmin listened to the explanation and his expression was a bit subtle. Clearly, the content attack speed of Grid was much slower than average. Strangely, quests were often neglected and as a result, new systems were encountered late. However, the Tower of Wisdom was an exclusive perk available solely to the 1st ranked player. Considering Grid’s usual tendencies, it was hard to understand why he delayed the visit to the Tower of Wisdom for no reason, especially when Grid was in a position to clear the insane dragon iron quest at any time.

“Perhaps... did he intentionally delay the timing of his visit?”

“Huh? Grid? Did he predict all of this? Aish, you’re too much.”

“No, it is credible enough. Focus on the fact that the Tower of Wisdom is an organization that fights for the protection of the world.”

“Ah...!”

Grid already knew that if he visited the tower after saving the East Continent, he would get more favors from the members of the tower. Of course, Grid couldn’t guess what the rewards would be but he must’ve known it wouldn’t be anything bad.

“Don’t you know? All of this luck comes from Grid’s intentions. He is a man that Chairman Lim Cheolho and I acknowledge.”

Director Yoon Sangmin had a smile on his face.

‘I should’ve visited sooner.’

Grid was given permission to pass on the Matchless Heart Technique and fell into belated regrets. He wondered how good it would’ve been if he had visited the tower a bit earlier.

‘I should’ve come to the tower before going to the East Continent.’

Then it would’ve been much easier to fight the yangbans. His level would be much higher than it was now.
