Ark approached the eyeball mural and shouted. At the same time, steam emerged from the shoulders of his battle suit. Both arms moved at 300 kilometres an hour like engines were attached to it.
Kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa!
The rapid fire fists. .h.i.t the wall! Stone powder flew up every time his fist struck the wall. The surrounding area became hazy from the powder.
Roaaaaar!
The approaching Anubis crumbled and turned into sand.
-The Hyper Drone has been exhausted.
<hyper>The battle suit wrapped around Arkâs body was taken apart and disappeared into the other dimension.</hyper>
<hyper>âPhew, this time it was taken care of with the battle suit.â</hyper>
<hyper>Ark attached a small octopus to his forehead and muttered.</hyper>
<hyper>Bbok! Bbok! Bbok! Bbok!</hyper>
<hyper>-You have recovered 1 health.</hyper>
<hyper>-You have recovered 1 healthâŚ..</hyper>
<hyper>While the Charenjok token was healing the damage sustained in battle, he walked towards the 4 piles of sand. It was the sand piles made of Anubis. 3 lights were shining within the piles of sand. It was the Zaliman ore worth 2~3 gold. Out of the 4 Anubis, 3 of them had dropped Zaliman ores. But Ark didnât enjoy the sight at all. No, anger surged at the sight instead.</hyper>
<hyper>âThis isnât the first timeâŚâŚâ</hyper>
<hyper>Ark sighed at the sight of the Zaliman ore. Of course, there was a reason for it. It had been ten days since Ark first entered the gold room and was transported by the trap. Ark had been puzzled the first time but his feelings soon changed. The experience and loot was beyond expectations! The idea of returning to the base was completely wiped from his mind. No, this was the place where Ark could gain the most experience and loot compared to R-14, Nephalim and Beltana. Besides, the pyramid was a hunting ground that Ark could monopolize!</hyper>
<hyper>âLord! Please let this room continueâŚâŚ!â</hyper>
<hyper>He said a prayer like that when looking at the 4 exits to the room. It felt like G.o.d was listening to Arkâs prayer. He could choose any of the 4 exits and after walking along a short pa.s.sage, he would arrive at exactly the same room. At first he thought he had returned to the original spot but the door closed and the Anubis statues started moving. And 4 Anubis threatened him with the iron bars!</hyper>
<hyper>âYes!â</hyper>
<hyper>Ark cheered with joy.</hyper>
<hyper>âLooking at the structure, there should be a lot more rooms like this!â</hyper>
<hyper>If there were many rooms then the experience and loot would be better. Of course, the Anubis werenât that easy to deal with. The wall mural containing the eye controlling the Anubis wasnât always at the same place. Every time he entered a room, he had to avoid the Anubis and look for the mural. He had to fight against the Anubis while looking for a small eye. It was like looking for a hidden picture while sprinting.</hyper>
<hyper>âIt would be better if every wall was cleanâŚ..â</hyper>
<hyper>The murals were hundreds of years old. Some of them had so much dirt stuck to them that they were invisible. However, there was an easy way to solve that problem.</hyper>
<hyper>It was the Facilities Maintenance skill that he learnt after cleaning dozens of kilometres of pipes on R-14! Ark took out a dust cloth from Cheksunâs Toolbox and searched for the picture while cleaning.</hyper>
<hyper>It was a scene where the fearsome Anubis were swinging their iron rods while Ark wiped the wall with a ragâŚ..anyway, he managed to find the murals. However it didnât solve all his problems. If he used the special move of the battle suit, 18 Barrage then he could shatter it instantly. But 18 Barrage was a technique that used all the mana of the battle suit. Once the mana was used up then the battle suit was recalled and it couldnât be used for 10 hours while charging. Yet he couldnât wait 10 hours every day to start a new battle.</hyper>
<hyper>âSet Bullets Shooting! Sonic Sword!â</hyper>
<hyper>In the end, he had no choice but to settle it the old fashioned way. He had to break the mural with his gun and dagger but it was more difficult. It shattered with one blow from the battle suit but the gun and dagger didnât do proper damage to it. The Anubis also didnât just watch him.</hyper>
<hyper>Thump, thump, thump, thump! Kwa kwa kwa kw.a.n.g!</hyper>
<hyper>Naturally they attacked him with the iron bars. He had to clean the mural, find the target and damage the mural while avoiding the Anubisâ attacks. HoweverâŚâŚArk wasnât that annoyed.</hyper>
<hyper>-Your level has risen!-You have acquired the <zaliman>!</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>There was no reason to be annoyed. He received experience and loot at the end of each battle!</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âHahahaha! Amazing! Amazing! The heavens must be helping me!â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Ark ran around the room and fired his gun and swung his sword like crazy. The experience came rushing in and the Zaliman ores piled up. So Ark was happy while the Royal Guards were starving. It was a very happy timeâŚâŚ</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>â10 days!â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>He had been in the pyramid 10 days. And Ark had received sufficient compensation during those 10 days.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>+ The Prisoner coating is limited to the region of Beltana.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>+ Your body information will belong to the galactic federation after receiving the Prisoner coating.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>+ You are unable to receive any other body coating until the Prisoner coating is removed.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Level 43! He was level 31 when he entered the pyramid and he had gained 12 levels in 10 days.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>It was similar to when he hunted on R-14 without any breaks. That wasnât all. One ore cost 2~3 gold and he gained 2~3 Zaliman ores every time he cleared a room to the extent that his bag was full.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âThatâs the problem!â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>The memories caused anger to surge in him again. The problem was that he reached level 43 and his bag was full of Zaliman ores. Once again, experience was relative to the level. A level 10 user could gain a lot of experience from hunting level 15 monsters. But once it went beyond 5 levels, a penalty was applied instead. Ark was able to get a lot of experience in the beginning. The Anubis were level 35. On the other hand, Ark was level 31 at the time so he had received bonus experience. Currently Ark was level 43. He was 8 levels higher than the Anubis so he received almost no experience anymore. The pyramid wasnât an attractive hunting ground anymore after 10 days. However, another problem was the cause of Arkâs despair.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âUgh! I just have to look at it!â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Ark felt like crying as he stared at the shiny ore. The Zaliman ore was worth 2~3 gold. He was the type to collect the ores even if a missile was flying towards him. But now he couldnât pick it up anymore. This was due to the message window that surfaced two days ago.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>-There is no more s.p.a.ce in your bag!</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>It was the message that caused shock and fear inside Ark! There was no more s.p.a.ce in his bag so he couldnât eat the 2 gold ore anymore. Thus Ark felt like his heart was being cut out every time he had to leave an ore behind. It was to the extent that the Zaliman ore appeared in his dreams! It was the reason Ark felt anger at the sight of the 3 ores.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âUgh! I would prefer it if they didnât drop at all. Or if it wasnât visible. Why does it have to be shiny? Dammit, if this continues then I wonât be able to leave until I die!â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>It wasnât a joke. He really couldnât leave unless he died. Ark thought about it.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âI donât need to hunt here anymore! I need to escape the pyramid as soon as possible!â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>He reached that conclusion two days ago. But Ark was dramatically mistaken. Ark hadnât wanted to enter the original room. And he didnât want to leave immediately. Ark had forgotten because of the experience and loot but he had fallen into a trap.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âNow I know why it is a trap.â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Ark began to realize the truly fearful part about this trap.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âThe experience and loot is the real trap. If he died then it was possible to leave the pyramid. But he hadnât registered at the Fairy so all the experience he gained would be lost. The thought of all the experience he earned over the last ten days flying away was enough to make him crazy. Thus he was forced to abandon the ore. Yes, the trap wasnât to kill the user. Users! The trap was designed to either cheat or kill the user! How frightening! The pyramidâs trap is really frightening! This is the Pharaohâs curse!â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Ark couldnât just give up everything he earned in the last 10 days. ReallyâŚ..the pyramidâs curse is too scary.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âAnyway!â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Ark didnât want to die because of the pyramidâs curse. So two days ago he started to devise ways to exit the pyramid.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âThis is still a game. There must be a way to leave after falling into the trap. There must be a way to escape from the trap hidden somewhere. The easiest way is to move along one route. If I move along one wall then I should come upon the exit.â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Therefore Ark continued moving in one direction. The pyramid was around 200 metres in diameter when he looked at it from outside. When looking at the size of the room and length of the pa.s.sages, he should go through 15 rooms before reaching the exit. Despite pa.s.sing through dozens of rooms, he didnât find anything.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âIt doesnât make sense. WhyâŚ..?â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Ku ku ku ku! Ku ku ku ku! Ku ku ku ku!</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>There was a roar and the s.p.a.ce seemed to shake. It wasnât the first time that happened. Occasionally the place would shake. It was okay when he was trying to get experience and loot but he felt like it was unusual now that he was trying to find an exit.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âDoes this shaking have something to do with the structure of the pyramid?â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Ark contemplated for a moment before a thought rose in his head. It was a movie called Cube. In that movie people were incarcerated in a square rooms. Of course, the people used various methods to move and find the exit but they couldnât solve the mystery.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âThey were square rooms with 4 exits. Yes, the structure of the pyramid is almost the same as the movie. The arrangements of the rooms will continuously change. That explains why I didnât find the exit just by moving in one direction. If this trap is the same as that movie then I wonât be able to find the exit by just wandering around. Then the exit must be hidden somewhere.â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>The problem was finding it. And the place the answer was hiddenâŚâŚ</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âIdentical rooms! It is this room!â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>There was nothing in this room except for the Anubis statues. Therefore the clue must be something depicted on the mural! Ark came to that conclusion and meticulously cleaned the walls with the dust cloth while examining the murals carefully. Then Ark found something suspicious for the first time. He had gone through hundreds of room without noticing but huge letters were carved on the bottom of the mural. They were characters like those in ancient Egypt! Naturally Ark couldnât read itâŚâŚ</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>The Murat were an ancient civilization from the Bellin constellation. The Murat were a species shrouded in a veil of mystery. Only some of the characters could be decoded at the moment.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âThe ruins of the MuratâŚ..â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>He had heard about the alien species called the Murat before. It had appeared in the information window about Beltana when he had been a.s.signed there. Originally Beltana was one of the colonies of the ancient species. Therefore Ark guessed that the ruins underneath Beltana were related to the Murat.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âThen is the Murat the cause of Egyptian civilization?â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>A great historical secret was revealed. But Ark didnât care about that.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>I am AnubisâŚ..the gatekeeper of the underworld. WellâŚ..the providence of the universeâŚ..the reasonâŚ..The person who doesnât follow the natural rulesâŚ..foreverâŚ..you wonât escape.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Those were the Murat letter that the Nymphe was able to decode. Some parts were missing so he couldnât check the entire contents.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âBut I managed to decipher some words. Anubis was the gatekeeper to the underworld. The natural lawsâŚ.if I donât follow the natural laws then I canât escape from this placeâŚ..in the end, I have to move in a certain order to escape this place? In orderâŚ..but all the rooms are similar so how can I tell what the order is?â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Ark came up with an idea in time with the noise of the octopus on his head. And yesterday Ark was finally able to find the answer. One day had pa.s.sed since he determined the answer.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âNow I have to look properlyâŚâŚâ</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Ark lifted the dust cloth and shouted. Facilities Maintenance increased his cleaning by 30%! Ark fiercely used his dust cloth and the room became free of dust.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âThereâs no doubt. Here! Iâve come to the right place!â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Arkâs eyes caught the mural near the upper corner of one exit. So far, all the murals in the rooms that Ark pa.s.sed were similar. No, he thought they were similar. However, if he carefully looked at the murals then there were different parts. Doors opened in all 4 directions after he took care of the Anubis. There was a person sitting on a throne painted on the upper corner. If he just glanced at it then there wasnât anything different but the age of the painted man was different. Some murals was a young child, others a young man, etcâŚâŚ</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âAnubis is the gatekeeper of the underworld!â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Ark combined all the clues in his head.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âThe gatekeeper of the underworld has to follow the natural laws. There is a process from the moment of birth to death. Thatâs what the murals on the wall is about. People go through a natural process from the moment they were born to the moment they die. It is a natural order. Then that is the order to reach the exit!â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Ark considered and looked for the room where the mural was in its youngest state. He chose the exit where the baby changed to a child and moved to the next room before selecting the exit with the next stage. And he had finally reached the mural where an old man was on his deathbed!</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>ââŚâŚ.This is the last one!â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Arkâs face was filled with expectation.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âIndeed!â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Ark clenched his fists. He went through the door with the mural of the dying man. The pa.s.sage was different from the hundreds he had pa.s.sed through previously. The left and right side of the pa.s.sage were lined with a huge number of gla.s.s tubes. The gla.s.s tubes were filled with a clear liquid and contained various newborn animals, plant specimens or even strange creatures floating around. However, nothing was alive. All the creatures in the gla.s.s tubes were completely rotted.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>The gla.s.s tubes contained tens of thousands of decayed bodies! He felt a chill as he walked along the narrow pa.s.sage.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âAre the Murat an alien species who conducted biological experiments?â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>It was an uncomfortable thought. But the Murat were already extinct. Ark clamped down his uncomfortable feeling and moved forward. After 20 minutes and tens of thousands of gla.s.s tubes, he finally appeared in front of doors painted with ancient Egyptian G.o.ds. He was about to open it but he didnât need to worry.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>It was the gold room he had discovered after digging. It had been 10 days since Ark arrived here. The paving stone that Ark had pushed up was still in the middle while the mummy was sitting on the throne on the opposite side. And the sword and pyramid lying on the table were also the same.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âThatâs it! I made it!â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Any thoughts about escaping the pyramid was forgotten. There was a reason Ark had entered in the first place. The typical owners of pyramids were pharaohs so the burial goods might be left with them. He had wandered around for 10 days but he had finally returned to the gold room. Ark looked at the items on the table and was about to approach when he flinched and stopped.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âWait? Didnât I previously fall into the trap because I walked carelessly? I opened the door and formally entered but there is no guarantee the trap wonât trigger again.â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>There was a chance he might return to the room filled with Anubis statues. Well, he knew the escape route but it would still be troublesome.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âBut the trap wonât excessively activate. There must be a way to avoid itâŚâŚâ</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>A smile formed on Arkâs mouth. The gold room had paving stones approximately 1 metres laid out.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>And images of a pharaoh sitting on the throne were also drawn on the paving stones. The images of a baby to an old man were all jumbled up. Then wasnât the answer simple?</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>âFirst, this guyâŚ..â</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Ark laughed and stepped on the image of a baby. Then a young child, a young man, a manâŚ..Ark carefully stepped on the paving stones and managed to arrive in front of the mummy. And he could finally obtain the Pharaohâs artefacts!</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Item Type: Matter Blade (Two-handed) Â Â Wearer Restriction: Level 40</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>Number of Ammunition: 4(Attack: 20~25)</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>A Gun blade found in the ruins belonging to an ancient alien species called the Murat.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman>The Murat was a powerful species that controlled the Bellin constellation in the centre of the galaxy. They use ancient magic through the mysterious energy called mana. Once science started to develop, the Murat combined the ancient magic and science to form a new civilization. The current technology of the federation and Rama are based on artefacts recovered from Murat ruins. The Impact Blade is one such technology that combines science and ancient magic. It is a combination of a matter blade and pistol. Portability is valued so there are few ammunition but it is possible to use a gun and sword together.</zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>Special Feature (Impact Shot):Â When Impact Shot is used after a sword attack, there is a 30% chance of triggering addition 50% damage.</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>Arkâs mouth dropped open. He had finally obtained the Pharaohâs artefacts after 10 days so he had high expectations. And he was level 43 so finding a magic item would be a jackpot he had thought. Yet it was an unique item! Of course, a unique item wasnât always good. Magic or rare items depended on the stats but unique items were based on its distinctiveness. In other words, items that werenât common had that rating. Because the unique item had strange functions, sometimes the practical usage was less than a magic or rare item. However, the scarcity of the item meant it could be traded for a more expensive price than rare items.</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>âBut this unique item is different!â</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>The performance of a unique item couldnât be guaranteed unless tried out. However, the level was the same but it had 10 more damage than his magic item. Besides, it was a sword and gun so it had close range and long range functions! And that was the best thing!</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>âWoo! I didnât suffer in vain for 10 days!â</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>All the acc.u.mulated stress of the last 10 days was released. But that wasnât the only item. There was a small pyramid next to the sword.</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>âIt doesnât seem to be an equipment based on the shapeâŚâŚâ</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>Ark had already received a jackpot so he leisurely picked up the pyramid. The pyramid vibrated and dozens of rays of light shot up from it. A 3D image was then drawn like a panorama in the sky.</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>The first scene that developed was filled with flames. Countless numbers of buildings and a castle in a city that looked like ancient Egypt was engulfed in flames. Apart from the people running away from the flames in the city, some people were also running in a hallway filled with gla.s.s tubes. And the ones using a gun and sword to slay them wereâŚ..</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>They had dark skin, pointed ears and blue eyes! The ones wielding the weapons and killing people were the Rama.</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>âWait? Didnât the information window say the reason why the Murat became extinct were unknown? The people on the screen were probably the Murat clan. Does that mean the Murat were destroyed by the Rama? Why is such a fact unknown?â</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>But the images didnât offer any explanations. The Ramaâs brutal killing proceeded for a while. Then the screen changed and a place that looked like a palace appeared. The Pharaoh looked at the flaming city were hopeless eyes. And he finally gave an order to the Murat in the palace. The Murat received the order and entered the hallway filled with gla.s.s tubes. All the Murat entered gla.s.s tubes and the Pharaoh operated something in the palace. A giant pyramid formed around the palace, the Pharaoh and the gla.s.s tubes and was swept deep underground. A large explosion occurred shortly after that. The explosion was enough to burn the surface of the planet! All the Murat and Rama running around were turned into dust. The planet lost its light and cooled really quickly.</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>âThis is why Beltana is a frozen planetâŚâŚâ</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>The Pharaoh used an ancient weapon after being cornered. But the video hadnât ended yet. The Pharaoh wrapped him and his people in an pyramid and sent them underground to protect them. Then he left a distress signal for any kin scattered around the Bellin constellation. And he waited. 1 year, 2 years, 3 yearsâŚ..he waited for his fellow kin for a long time. However n.o.body came. After dozens of years, the people in the gla.s.s tubes started to rot. The Pharaoh despaired. And he foresaw the end of the Murat. The Pharaoh took out the pyramid that Ark was holding. He opened the bottom and placed his hand inside. A glowing liquid flowed from his fingertips and filled the empty s.p.a.ce. The Pharaoh placed his sword and the pyramid on the table. He sat on his throne and his life ended.</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>Ark now understood the situation.</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>âYes, the life forms in the gla.s.s tubes were the Murat who sought refuge before Beltana perished. The Pharaoh annihilated the Rama and thought his kin from other planets would come to rescue them. However, their kin didnât come and the life forms started rotting. The Pharaoh died in this state. The distress signal I received was the one the Pharaoh sent to his kin.â</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>However, the Pharaoh died and hundreds of years pa.s.sed while the signal weakened. Ark was able to receive the signal because he found the underground square. Then the video footage ended.</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>-You have acquired undisclosed information about the ancient alien species called the Murat.</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>The universe has a long history and many alien civilizations have grown and declined. Finding undisclosed information can help illuminate the history of the universe. Hidden alien artefacts or technology can play a decisive role.</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>+ Information about the ancient alien species Murat (1/15).</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>+ You have obtained 300 Adventure points for acquiring information about the Murat.</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>+ You have gained 5 Intelligence for acquiring information about the Murat.</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength>-The Nymphe has acquired a map of the Bellin constellation.</strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength><the>âHoh, I also received a bonus like this?â</the></strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength><the>Ark laughed after reading the information window. It was an ancient alien civilization. This was an important part of Galaxian. It was unexpected but Ark was in the centre of an adventure! Istana might be the centre of the federation but there are numerous planets and new directions that could open up in Galaxian. And the heart of these adventures was finding ancient alien civilizations. Excavating ruins of an ancient alien civilization could be directly connected to the growth of a user. Pioneers with sponsors would also get the largest compensation for such information. It was similar to the Adventure points. Of course, Ark was still a prisoner so that was in the far futureâŚâŚ</the></strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength><the>âThe things Iâve obtained arenât bad.â</the></strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength><the>And he also received a bonus 5 intelligence. It is a useful bonus that can be used immediately.</the></strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength><the>âBy the wayâŚ..â</the></strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength><the>Arkâs eyes looked at the bottom of the pyramid. He remembered the glowing liquid that the Pharaoh emitted before he died. He tinkered with the bottom a few times before it opened. Hundreds of years had pa.s.sed but the liquid was still shining.</the></strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength><the>âWhat is this?â</the></strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength><the>Ark touched the liquid without thinking. The liquid suddenly bubbled and enveloped Arkâs hand.</the></strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength><the>âHuk! What, what the? I-Is this another trap?â</the></strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength><the>Ark screamed and quickly removed his hand. However, the glowing liquid was just absorbed even more and the information window appeared.</the></strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength><the>-You have absorbed the photon life form âShire!â</the></strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength><the>The Shire are mysterious photon life forms and are some of the most mysterious creatures in the universe. According to old doc.u.ments, they will condense over millions of years to form mana. The Murat have the ability to use the power of the Shire through âRuneâ characters.</the></strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength><the>+ You have absorbed the Shire and acquired a Rune.</the></strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength><the>+ You have acquired a Rune (Ikram) from the Murat memory contained.</the></strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength><the>-A new skill (Common Occupation âââââ) has been learnt.</the></strength></zaliman></hyper>
<hyper><zaliman><strength><the>Rune Carving (User, Active): When the photon Shire is summoned and a rune carved then a skill will be manifested. Although the Murat civilization is now gone, the Runes once had a profound contribute on their ability to take control of the Bellin constellation.</the></strength></zaliman></hyper>
