TWKH Ch 11

The resting place of cd8033374b the spirits was a fb09484f64 dungeon with a very a7e2450947 dreamy atmosphere, where purple ac0a95463a flowers glowing with light 20ef51acb0 flew around, and the b1cc27563e sound of music mixed 2a500ad821 with humming could be f167ae5fee heard. Unlike the faint fc32264152 presence of the ee3ad2b09f game, the BGM 924106de82 of the resting 5b1ba40d47 place of the 89750db2eb spirits was very f3572143fe famous, and it e6b78a32e2 had even been 118f8af352 used as background 1ccf89fd45 music for an e4949f1385 ion drink commercial a8b02c4727 on TV. Jehyun hummed along with 16942d16d6 the familiar tune as c2c6887616 he stopped his character.731b508f5ec451c7

The owner of 6f141a2e14 the resting place 49ac061b2c of the spirits e374842a41 was the great 078798a23a spirit Anakia, who ff732f33ca had lost her 16750effe4 mind in anger 6a1e5cb172 over the invasion 6b92f67a35 of raptors. Anakia was the 79937dfd57 parent and master e1aa3231ec of thousands of 381d60c719 spirits, and her d2f4e2fd1c personality was somewhat 6a526dea08 dirty.9c4676c8de44cfae

If you left the 181dd5e4b4 protected area, the bombardment 432e1a30c4 of spirits would begin cab8035583 immediately, so Jehyun stood dedf5c25d6 still and waited until 7ea68ebb69 all his party members a23427d9aa gathered, then activated a 335ce11792 buff and entered together.9f40ffd8cc447d68

Anakia wasn’t a ce3b64a644 raptor capable of 6cab52d966 over-saturation, so she 30ad2cf5b1 was even angrier deed9d6b54 due to the 23d9d1dd92 over-saturated raptor legion cbe56f9fab commanders.

Anakia’s creations, the 4d69bfdb7b enraged spirits, were 8486998c0d giant moths with 8e640c6418 bodies resembling humans.

As the surrounding land gradually dried up due to the enraged Anakia, the great mage Artlaksha from Caplet stepped up with the heroes in response to the shocking event of the great spirit’s corruption.dec16aef5fa90188

Artlaksha said that if the spirit stone held by Anakia could be purified, Anakia could return to normal. So, the heroes infiltrated the resting place of the spirits to steal Anakia’s spirit stone, which was part of Caplet’s infamous main quest, “Infiltration.”405c86c446a873ec

During the infiltration quest, users took “Artlaksha’s special transformation potion.” Drinking it would turn them into an “enraged spirit,” allowing them to sneak into Anakia’s lair.2534f8e198f26d75

“Really? 64? Not 65?”81154a6a048fa8aa

64 or 63 was 8c1fb86d0b an ambiguous number.

Matgom→ It was 0b184a9731 64, but I 99711c058c think it’s based fd7fde65fb on the entry 8fa5dce5b4 time, not the 8752b2d05a percentage. The damage meter ab97eabf07 says 59 seconds, 0e10270d35 so with the 04407268a8 delay, it should c1b4b153c3 be exactly 1 80f0f82a9e minute, right?fd08c15cad47cbd6

Jehyun pressed alt-tab to 4aed9658fb check, and sure enough, a72296c6ba his damage meter showed 3af34fdecb the previous strategy time c51d810d8d as 1 minute and f7289a0c2c 4 seconds. Considering the time it 60ed6c81bd took for the tank, 377fb20d2b Matgom, and Jehyun to 01eceb454e die after the second 6dcd783609 synesthesia, it meant that 58339f9b2b synesthesia would trigger again 3109f8bc71 exactly 1 minute after 16fb56a9d2 it was cast.dc6e2ded7b6e60b9

Using the invincibility skill 76800dc518 to ignore synesthesia, Jehyun e508776102 began clearing the debuffs 3c69eedf04 from the party, but 9a9c707ac2 he felt a lingering d6a5e5c83e sense of unease.

A user transformed into a spirit must break through the wall and infiltrate the nest. They need to pass through the nest without touching the eggs and approach Anakia’s lair, but that was incredibly difficult. It was due to the next map, the corridor.6d42d33ec1fd3faf

The place 832913ea47 was overflowing b892d12e7b with other 25147f7479 spirits, aside 53be701af1 from the 9a3262ee44 user. But Anakia 6ad2b620c7 was a 06415e9215 paranoid boss, bf1176831f and if 722d473476 users moved 1dd6e5739b oddly compared 0abb792f05 to the 0f9a872548 other spirits, 4da3fd06ad it would 9e596d3c6c sense danger f272c86ce2 and summon 1d28767cc2 the guardians, feb4dd052c who would 35289faef1 quickly eliminate ebdd87a48f the user.b4b47a6de2e3e20c

[Party] Habaek: Passed the nest.

When infiltrating, one had to move carefully in the nest to avoid touching the densely packed eggs and follow the same rules as the other spirits while navigating the corridors. Anakia’s eyes were embedded throughout the walls, leaving no room to relax.c375d8987f95337d

After passing through the corridors, they reached the sanctuary. At its center, Anakia lay sleeping, and behind it rested the Spirit Stone. The players’ objective was to steal the Spirit Stone and escape.2ba0ca90c8936691

[Party] Habaek: Reached the sanctuary.

However, there was a major problem—the main quest’s stealth section ended the moment anyone touched the Spirit Stone. The instant they laid hands on it, Anakia would detect them, and the quest would transition to clearing the Spirit’s Sanctuary.f4d1589ae85b114c

Jehyun couldn’t grasp the situation and kept his eyes on Habaek. It seemed stealth was indeed the solution, as there was one notable difference: even after a minute had passed, the shared sensory debuff hadn’t been reapplied. It seemed like anyone under the debuff only needed to attempt stealth for the effect to dissipate.eba934e409236074
