Gold and Silver Alchemist

Antarctica is a place where human hands cannot reach properly.

This is because it is the coldest and windiest on Earth, and it is difficult to access because not only the continent but also the near sea is covered with ice.

Since it is such a veiled area, there are many mysterious rumors related to Antarctica.

There are rumors that a secret alien base is hidden under the thick ice sheet.

There is a saying that traces of UFO take-off and landing are stamped on the ice cap.

Some even believe that a huge dimensional portal is open at the South Pole.

In addition, there are quite a lot of pictures and videos posted on the Internet as evidence of such stories.

“Most of them were fabricated fakes. But the Antarctic Pyramids do exist!”

If there is an elixir extraction facility somewhere underground in Antarctica, there must be an altar that allows you to enter it.

Kim Seo-yeon pointed to the ‘Antarctic Pyramid’ as the first place where the altar would be hidden.

In 2012, a multinational expedition led by the United States discovered the pyramids in Antarctica.

A total of three pyramids were found, the largest reaching a height of 400 m.

For reference, the height of the largest pyramid in Egypt is about 140 m.

The discovery of a huge pyramid in Antarctica was immediately reported around the world, and people who heard the news were extremely excited.

However, some scholars have argued that the pyramids in Antarctica are Nunatak (a rocky peak surrounded by ice) that has been shaped like a pyramid as the mountain that rose from the crustal movement was eroded by the strong Antarctic wind.

In short, it is just a rocky mountain resembling a pyramid.

However, other scholars have argued that the Antarctic pyramids must be man-made structures.

Other Nunataks are found in mountainous areas, as the Antarctic Pyramids were surrounded by flat plains.

Eventually, scholars began to argue over whether the pyramids in Antarctica were natural structures or man-made structures.

“If the Antarctic Pyramids are truly man-made structures, the ancient history of the Earth must be rewritten from scratch!”

Trees are essential to building a pyramid.

To move a heavy boulder, you must roll it with a wooden pole underneath.

There are no trees in Antarctica now, but once it was a subtropical climate, there were trees growing there.

The problem is that it was 15 million years ago.

“The human ancestor, Australopithecus, was active about 4 million years ago. So when the Antarctic Pyramids were built, mankind itself, let alone civilization, hadn’t even come into existence yet!”

“Then who made it?”

“If the Antarctic Pyramids are truly man-made structures, they are proof of the Earth Reset theory.”

The ＜Earth Reset Theory＞ argues that ancient civilizations had already risen and then collapsed several times before the modern human civilization arose.

The age of the earth is billions of years, and it was argued that civilization could not have blossomed just once in that long time.

“Conspiracy theorists claim the US is hiding the truth about the Antarctic pyramids.”

The probability that the US is hiding something is very low.

If that was the case, they wouldn’t have reported that pyramids were discovered in Antarctica in the first place.

Anyway, I checked and there was nothing wrong with it.

“You can ask.”

I took out the cell phone I had brought from America.

It was a phone that could be used to talk to President Gordon.

Not too long ago, he was badly criticized by his political opponents for using an old smartphone.

This is because older phones that have had their OS updated can easily be hacked.

Hearing that ‘the president’s security awareness is terrible’, Gordon made and used a special type of mobile phone that prevents eavesdropping and does not leave call records.

This mobile phone did not connect itself with other general models.

Only the US president and his closest aides were able to communicate with each other on the same model.

belt-

I pressed speed dial number 1.

Then I got connected with President Gordon.

-hello?

“I have a question for you.”

I asked Gordon if he was hiding anything about the Antarctic pyramids.

– In 2012, it was a long time before I took office… I think I’ll have to go to the archives and check it out.

“okay? Then check quickly and let me know.”

-But now the time is…

It was 4 p.m.

It is 4:00 PM in Seoul, so it is 3:00 AM in Washington DC, where the White House is located.

“Is the archives closed at dawn?”

-That’s not it…

“But why?”

– Oh no! We will find out and contact you soon!

After hanging up the phone and waiting for about 30 minutes, I got a call from Gordon.

He was in the secret storage room.

The information related to the pyramids in Antarctica is not classified, but it is classified as confidential because it is not good to inform the public.

“Go through the papers one page at a time, from beginning to end.”

-yes. All right.

Using Eyes and Ears, I was able to see the documents through President Gordon’s eyes.

And the visual information was immediately delivered to Kim Seo-yeon.

Kim Seo-yeon memorized the contents of the document and analyzed it at the same time.

President Gordon turned the last page.

“okay. great job.”

-No, feel free to contact us if you need!

After hanging up the phone with the US president, I resumed my conversation with Kim Seo-yeon.

“Is there anything special about it?”

“The pyramids are too elaborate to be formed naturally, but I have not found any evidence that they are man-made structures.”

It was no different from the facts disclosed to the general public.

“But there is one special thing.”

The American expedition conducted ‘acoustic wave exploration’ to understand the inside of the pyramid.

By creating artificial seismic waves and analyzing the waveform, it is possible to understand the underground structure without digging the ground.

“There was nothing in the pyramid. But I discovered that there is a huge cavity thousands of meters below the pyramid!”

While trying to investigate the inside of the pyramid, he accidentally discovered a huge space formed thousands of meters underground.

However, the expedition team withdrew after the exploration.

The Antarctic winter was approaching and he could not stay any longer.

And since then, the US government has not sent an expedition to the pyramids.

It was judged that it would cost astronomical money to investigate a cavity deep in the ground, but it was not worth it.

“That cavity could be an elixir extraction facility!”

I nodded my head at Seoyeon Kim’s words.

“You’ll find out if you go and investigate.”

.

.

.

We departed from Incheon International Airport and arrived at Santiago International Airport in Chile.

From there, I took a light plane and moved to Punta Arenas, the southernmost city in South America.

Shu Woo-wook-

It flew 1,200 km through telekinesis and crossed the sea.

And finally arrived at King George Island in Antarctica.

This is where the Sejong base in Korea is located.

The Pyramid has to go another 2,000 km from here to the center of Antarctica.

Wheein-

The snowstorm was so strong that it was difficult to see right in front of us.

It was the coldest time in Antarctica.

I couldn’t wait until December, when summer began, so I had to travel thousands of kilometers through bad weather.

chu chu chu chu-

Wearing armor that is resistant to cold and wind.

And flew at full speed towards the place where the pyramid was.

It is said to be wind resistant, but this is where the strongest winds on Earth blow.

It was not an ordinary task to fly through strong winds blowing at speeds of tens of meters per second.

It was natural that no air means could be used in such a wind.

The car will be the same.

If you run on the ice and fall into a crack in the ice sheet, you will never be able to get out.

I can definitely see why Antarctica is unexplored.

Shu Woo-wook-

After flying for 20 hours through a snowstorm, I managed to reach my destination.

‘I worked hard!’

It was a hard flight that I would never want to do if I had to do it twice.

Anyway, a huge pyramid with a height of 400 meters caught my eye.

And there were two more small pyramids around it.

Shh shh-

I unleashed the golems.

“Look for an altar nearby.”

“Yes, boss!”

They mobilized more than ten golems, including the manager and Kim Seo-yeon, to thoroughly explore the pyramid and its surroundings.

But the altar was not found.

“Withdraw for now!”

I took out the arch on the ice near the pyramid.

cool-

The space under the arch shuddered and the teleportation gate opened.

hiss-

I passed through the gate and entered the 3rd factory.

After being in Antarctica during a blizzard and entering the warm tropical rain forest, it was a complete paradise.

‘by the way.’

Contrary to my expectations, I couldn’t find an altar, so I have to decide between the two.

It has to either withdraw from Antarctica and explore another candidate site, or it has to dig down directly to the hollow.

But what did I do to come all the way here and just go back without any income?

‘Let’s dig the ground.’

Digging the tunnel itself was not difficult.

All you have to do is put the dirt and pile of stones into your inventory.

But the hole dug will soon collapse.

It is necessary to build a support to prevent it from collapsing.

“There are various construction methods that can prevent a tunnel from collapsing!”

I nodded at Seoyeon Kim’s words.

It’s not an impossible task, but the construction period will be quite long.

‘Isn’t there a better way?’

I tried to shake my head, but drowsiness poured out.

Come to think of it, I couldn’t sleep for over two days.

‘Let’s take a deep breath for now.’

do you know When you wake up, will you think of a good way?

I took off my armor, dressed comfortably, and lay down on the camp bed.

And fell into a deep sleep.

***

I was standing in the backyard of a factory.

It will be lucid dreaming.

The tree was growing fast.

The manager smiled broadly and opened his mouth.

“Congratulations, boss! The tree has grown to another level! From now on, you can receive 10 pieces of knowledge per day!”

Every time a tree grows, the kind of knowledge contained in its leaves also diversifies.

‘What kind of knowledge will come out this time?’

I don’t know if there will be stronger weapon and armor recipes or knowledge in a completely different field.

I put my finger on the leaf.

pat-

A bright light poured from the leaves and a piece of Alan’s memory entered his mind.

***

Ellen was standing in front of a tree.

“What kind of knowledge will I contain this time?”

He thought for a moment, then shook his head vigorously.

“I can’t concentrate!”

After learning that the demon king Laves went to the universe where the earth belongs, Alan couldn’t get his hands on things properly.

He asked the golem serving tea.

“Can Laves really reach Earth?”

Golem nodded.

“The size of the universe observed by mankind there is 46.5 billion light years centered on the earth. And there are countless stars in it. Therefore, the probability that Laves will reach the solar system to which Earth belongs is infinitely close to zero. But it’s close to zero, but not zero. If the time of eternity is reflected, it will inevitably happen in the end.”

No matter how low the probability, it will inevitably happen when time is infinite.

Even if the Earth completely disappears after billions of years, if Choi Min-hyeok lives an eternal life, he will have no choice but to face the devil anywhere.

Besides, the Demon King will do anything to restore his magical power.

There is only one way to restore magic in the universe where the earth belongs,

It was just an elixir.

The Demon King does not have the ability to extract an elixir from gold.

So, Rabeth will pursue the Elixir, and if so, he may run into Choi Min-hyeok sooner.

‘If we are destined to meet anyway…’

hmm-

Alan rested his chin and pondered for a moment.

Then he stood in front of the tree again.

‘It’s decided what kind of knowledge to contain.’

He began to put knowledge of a completely different classification into the leaves.
