Ch.187187. Mythical Dungeon Reward Box

After slaughtering the snake’s head, the noisy snake pit became a bit quieter.

Of course, there were probably many snakes still slithering around alive elsewhere, but now was the time to savor the joy of defeating the boss.

“That was too easy?”

To be honest, I couldn’t shake the feeling that this Level 1 biome, the Black Swamp, was much easier to conquer than I expected.

Maybe it was because I spent several days hunting blood eels back then.

Even that was pretty easy, though the ancient blood eels with their streams of lightning were at least somewhat annoying.

The Big Guava Snake was just a matter of dodging one powerful attack before I took its head off with a single strike, making the hunt not particularly difficult.

Of course, this was also possible thanks to the SS-grade regeneration ability “Water Cut,” which allowed me to separate the snake’s head from its body.

Everything fell into place perfectly.

Plus, the poison I brought from Lee Ji-hyun just in case seemed to deal quite significant damage too.

“Yuuung!”

“Well done, Unir. You played a big role.”

“Yuu!”

It wasn’t just flattery—thanks to Unir, I was able to take down the Big Guava Snake in less than half a day.

If I had to fight every Guava Snake I encountered in that massive snake pit directly, I couldn’t guarantee how things would have turned out.

Outside, I could use the open terrain to my advantage, leaping down to slice off snake heads from above, but inside the snake pit, the structure was designed perfectly for snake movement.

If I had to cut a snake’s head while facing it head-on, I’d have to go straight into its open mouth—walking right into a snake’s maw without knowing what attack might come would be risky even for me.

Moreover, attacks like the Big Guava Snake’s Blind Strike or Chaos Release would have depleted my life force if I’d taken them head-on in a combo, no matter how strong I am.

And this is just assuming the snake pit was narrow—if there had been snakes attacking from multiple holes in all directions, I might have had to hunt in a truly chaotic manner.

In the end, I can only say that once again, everything fell into place perfectly—another victory for my consistently well-matched ability choices.

“Spirits were the answer.”

The spirit summoner ability that I had chosen just to use as a high-grade sprinkler ended up allowing me to defeat the boss monster in record time in this Level 2 biome, and even made it easier and faster to conquer the upgraded corrupted area with its dense chaotic energy.

Whether for convenience or for directly hunting the boss.

POW–!!!

As the boss fell and several quests completed, a dazzlingly brilliant deep red light burst from the hole where the massive Big Guava Snake had emerged, shooting up into the sky.

I knew what this light meant.

“What the… *hiss* Could it be mythic?”

The highest grade I know of in the Farming World.

The effect that appears when a mythic grade item drops.

Even legendary grade items, which have similarly low drop rates, don’t have effects like this.

While legendary items might sparkle with golden light from a distance, this kind of spectacular effect shooting into the sky only happens once in the Farming World:

When a mythic grade item appears.

And I was about to receive a mythic grade item.

Legendary or mythic.

The reward chest was guaranteed to be one of the two, and if the mythic-announcing effect appeared from where the boss emerged…?

“Could it be that the boss reward is mythic and the quest reward is separate…?”

After briefly indulging in that greedy thought, I immediately rushed to the hole.

I still needed to loot the items from the defeated boss, but more important was the S-grade mythic chest—something I had never obtained even once in my entire Farming World career.

Deep in the vast hole below.

Far down in the darkness, a red light box was still brilliantly revealing its presence, glowing magnificently in the water.

“Unir. Drain the water now.”

“Yuu!!”

Along with the red pillar of light, the water that had filled the snake pit surged upward like a fountain, spraying in all directions.

With the flow of water, countless corpses of Guava Snakes that had died inside the pit were carried out as well.

The surroundings were completely filled with snake corpses.

There must still be many snakes that weren’t dead yet.

Deciding to clean up later, I jumped down into the hole.

At the very bottom of the hole, which seemed to be dozens of meters deep.

The lowest part appeared to be the Big Guava Snake’s lair—an enormously wide cave-like space with a straw-lined nest containing a few eggs.

And on top of it sat a chest that looked about twice the size of a legendary chest.

“Perfect.”

Reward chests are sized according to their grade.

While chests of the same grade might vary in size depending on the dungeon’s grade, generally chests above a certain size are rare.

Since chests ultimately serve as inventory, ones that are too large can be awkward to place, so players actually prefer appropriately sized ones for collection purposes.

Mythic grade chests were like that.

Honestly, judging by size alone, you might think “that’s a bit big” if you placed one next to a cabin, making placement a concern, but from a collector’s perspective, the intense red effect visible from a distance made it a perfect display piece.

The chest was so impressive that I honestly wasn’t even excited about its contents.

Since it was a mythic grade chest, it would definitely contain good items.

However, I didn’t think anything would be as good as the S-grade mythic chest itself.

An S-grade mythic chest.

This was truly a rare item even in the Farming World.

While legendary chests became the supreme farming containers in Farming World just for their ability to integrate with nearby settlement chests and sort all items, there was one grade above them—this mythic grade chest.

Moreover, mythic chests could only receive mythic-exclusive options at S-grade or higher, making them even more demanding than legendary ones.

Even if you won the lottery-like odds of getting a mythic chest, if it wasn’t S-grade, it would be a disaster where you’d end up with just a decorative piece with more slots but still need to sort through a legendary chest.

That’s why, hilariously, if you search through the Farming World community, posts about farming S-grade or higher mythic chests don’t even reach 100 entries in ten years of archives.

Even then, it’s not exactly 100—only about 20-something in total.

While not all Farming World users participate in the community, to clear an S-grade or higher dungeon and obtain a mythic grade chest, you need to be someone who has played Farming World to some extent and has skill, so there are almost no lucky passersby who just happen to get one.

“Let’s see…”

[Dungeon Extra Large Chest]

– Grade: SS(Mythic)

– An extremely rare and valuable storage chest found in a dungeon

– Made from mythic-grade minerals found only in top-tier dimensions, it seems capable of storing an unimaginable amount of items with its internal space.

– Crafted with 5,000 X 200 capacity.

– ‘Auto-Sort’ activated when placed in settlement

– ‘Chest Management’ activated when placed in settlement

– ‘Anti-Decay’ activated when placed in settlement

– ‘Temperature Maintenance’ activated when placed in settlement

“…Hah.”

Tears of joy welled up.

Even someone as cold-blooded as me, who could kill a person and sleep soundly without them haunting my dreams, shed a tear at finally seeing the S-grade mythic chest I had desperately wanted for ten years.

Not just a data fragment mythic chest found in a game, but a chest from the Rift Dimension that I could use for life.

Moreover, the grade of this extra large mythic chest wasn’t based on the dungeon’s grade but matched the boss monster’s grade, making it SS-grade with truly insane capacity.

5,000 stacks with 200 slots.

This single chest could hold pretty much all resources one might need.

By simple calculation, it could store one million resource items.

And it had four special options.

From the S-grade mythic chests I’d seen in screenshots, they usually had two options:

Auto-Sort and Chest Management.

At most, they might have Anti-Decay, but this one, being SS-grade, even had Temperature Maintenance.

Though I’d never seen these options attached to a chest before, I knew what they were from playing Farming World.

“Incredible. Settlement management is solved.”

While these might not be absolutely mind-blowing options for me right now since I could use electricity, there was no denying that this chest covered everything in terms of convenience.

Fearing I might somehow forget it, I quickly put it in my belt pouch.

With an endless smile on my face, I began collecting the remaining loot and dealing with the leftover snakes.
