Weed is gazing out at the desert in a sand warrior outfit, his already old avatar aged over 20 years making him bald with wrinkles. His army of a thousand warriors returns and he heads toward a mirage city or something. 21 years have passed so far and weed is now 783, he leads his army to a dungeon, he was glad he could simply sweep through them now I think, instead of planning.
Some of his soldiers get scared so he tells them to go home, thanks to weed and Seoyun, much of the terrain and history changed. Back in the dungeon, his warriors tell him they shouldn't risk their lives if it was just to reach lvl 800, Weed's real reason was greed, he wanted more treasure. Due to the rapid development of the desert cities, he executed lots of wandering bandits and monsters simply because they would get in the way of his acquisition of treasure. Apparently, while he was gold digging, he finished all the quests to gain the title of ruler of the desert.
Meanwhile, the Hermes guild betrayed their allies and destroyed them. Hermes had a necromancer that used Bar Khans magic, it seems they studied weed and learned how to use it. While that was going on, everyone else was demanding for Weed, some even asked for reruns, KMC got embarrassed because they lost all contact with Weed.
So everyone is wondering what's going on in the south. In the hall of fame, Weed's adventures took all the top part. As the palace for Arpen kingdom was completed, the descendants of Weed's soldiers arrived and pledged their loyalty. Weed did actually brainwash them in a way, he made his original soldiers repeat devotion to weed, and they in turn passed it down to their children. Loyalty might have been passed down, but this amplified it.
Weed enjoyed his play style, although he was happy crafting daily, he missed the pure battle that he enjoyed in his first days venturing out (poor wolves). It goes on about Weed's adventure, leading his army through a dungeon, he brought two pieces of life and gained adv archery 8 (not going deeply into this part).
One of his thieves offers to sacrifice himself to dismantle a trap, Weed tells him think of his family first. There was an issue with a wizard but it was confusing, I think Weed convinced 5 wizards in the 17th year to stay and fight with him. They encountered 10 meter red salamanders that breathe lava or something, and Weed used an ice attribute bow and shot them with a variety of skills. He had his magicians use ice magic and he used sculpting blade when the situation called for it. The battle left 17 warriors from lvl500-700 dead, Weed called them weak to keep morale up.
A scene about the president of a bank getting into a bad situation, not sure who.
Getting eaten by one of them was a horrible scene, but they grew more aggressive in the face of fear due to their blind faith in Weed. Monsters disappeared like mist as they appeared, weeds pace was basically ruined. Only Weed's family and Seoyun's doctor saw what was going on with Weed. They commented on his hero status, his kingdoms downfall maybe. (who is yubyeongjunyi btw?)
earth shadows, top adventure group robbed embinyu treasure, 1 billion yrs prior to orcs, dwarves, elves and humans, embinyu god left many treasures
The team heads to a scholar and he asks if they know bout the great unmatched hero weed, they say of course, but the scholar tells them he lived 100 yrs ago. Earth shadows asks aren't you talking about arpen kingdoms weed, the scholar tells them he is a great guy, but the desert hero is ruthless, and a cold blooded warrior. They look for the place called meta-cassiopeia, weeds mysterious city in the south. Weed just barely managed to kill the king salamander with only 4.3% health left, he gained 4 lvls and 16xxx fame.
He got a lot of crafting materials, less than half his troops remained, patients that died from wounds totaled 200-300. Weed reached 824 at the end of the 22yrs he gets a murderous look in his eyes, thinks of killing the remaining warriors for more levels. He decides to leave em be and bandages them b4 saying goodbye, his quest finishes. 741 warriors remained, he reunites with seoyun, she still looks like a model after all that time.
Hermes guild made an edict about killing anyone against them.
fabio is at adv smith 99% not sure the lvl but probably 9, he notes how he cant seem to get that last 1% no matter what he makes. He decides to look for someone to give perfect sword and armor to, I think.
The dwarf kingdom has been free of conflict due to rey bern, the dragon that screwed weed over.
He considers how it will be in trouble if hermes conquers everywhere else, weed's friends all gather and mapan tells them of this quest he found.
They decide to take it in an instant, they think if they don't take a hard quest, they'll suffer more at the hands of weed. The group also notes of how a general quest would be too boring, since weed's quests were always exciting.
Lee hyun is finally off feeding his chickens, the loan sharks were planning to abduct hayan to make lee hyun into ther money maker again, the AI destroys them and forces them to leave the country as part of a plan. Weed meets seoyun ingame and notes of how ray bard looks like an elite.
Says in reality he was living in his basement, weed sees a video of more embinyu followers, about 200 days before their tower is complete and their god descends. They have a dragon of chaos under their control somehow, weed recalls meeting a fortune teller telling him how he has many tasks to do
he gets a quest to defeat the dragon of chaos and stop the embinyu, death of either him or seoyun results in failure.
weed first feels troubled but then realizes the destruction will happen in central continent so even if he fails, ray bard will get screwed over at least.
Haven empire decided to target the elves, some users logged on after a break and see that their city has fallen to ruin, 30 ppl turn to embinyu or something
weed gets advanced carving from his jewelry crafting, he makes 6 million gold for his gems and such, seoyun made 20 million from her land and employment options
desert warriors arrive at arpen under the blood oath, weed told them arpen kingdom opposite of the south would appear to go serve over there or die
weed gathers 3000 of his warriors, seoyun acquires 8000 mercs, another 9000 show up from somewhere, weeds army now totals 20000
He gets the blessings of five gods to help in his battle with the embinyu, weed acquires 5 skills, some of which are ray bards due to their effectiveness. Weed faces off against someone named noah and his army of 32000, weed uses his new skills to destroy them, he says take no prisoners, just kill and loot. They destroy the city of frederick, weed doesnt care bout his infamy, he says wen he gets back to original time, it will be gone.
Calls weed not a moralist, in com, he killed anything that passed into his eyes, in contrast, he lived relatively calmly in royal road. Says how stress build up after getting screwed over so much, after destroying 2 more places, he gets quest updated, says his destruction was a good thing
ppl wanted to do the right thing, but they cowered b4 the embinyu, he decides to destroy the continent.
