Episode 17. Poor quality (1)
Shining and unification.
A clash that took place in the rift over the world’s strongest position.
The winner was The Shining.
[Shining ‘Earl Asscura’s Servant’ raid success…]
[Rocks ranked 2nd in the player rankings. Finally, the 400 level landed… There is only a 2-level difference from Skal, who ranks first.]
[Experts 日 “Jesse Heinness played a big role.”]
It was Count Askura’s henchman who decided the outcome of the two guilds.
A whopping level 390 Demon-Type monster.
Due to the nature of the demons that inflict status ailments.
There weren’t many players who could stand up to Count Ascura’s henchmen.
Shining, which had as many as four top 10 rankers, had resistance to it, but Unification, which had a relatively low average level, did not.
“Hmm.”
The Shining who defended the world’s strongest title.
However, there was no sign of joy in the face of Guild Master Rox. After all, what awaited him after he came out of the rift was an unexpected turn of events.
“What is that? What do you all think?”
Basecamp Master Room.
There were four men and women gathered there, including Rocks.
A project screen that fills the wall.
The black man who was watching the video being played said.
“I don’t know if you ask me, Rox?”
Dmitry ranked 8th in the player rankings.
He wasted this precious time.
Only an hour ago, I came back from rolling hard in the rift.
What is the sudden meeting?
“Rox, a man like you, where women line up, doesn’t know my earnestness. What a date I got! In the midst of a busy life, how did you subtract? Are you trying to make that hardship go away because of a guy like that?”
Dmitri’s resentment turned to the man on the screen.
A silver-haired man wearing a long coat.
As the man beckoned, walls and pillars sprang up in the plaza.
Camilla, ranked 7th in the player rankings, opened her mouth.
“Well~ I can’t even tell if I’m an archer~”
Whirling—
she twisted her long old red hair.
Then, he raised his body, which had been leaning on the sofa.
“You think you’re great enough to make us care? really?”
Rocks didn’t answer.
It wasn’t because the guy was great.
It was just annoying.
“well. Shall we call it jealousy?”
“jealousy? You have a lot of greed, my captain~”
“Rocks, it’s a common thing. The media talking about a rookie who is not a big deal. Because it’s ratings and views. It means that he is obsessed with making stars.”
Dmitri was right.
In the meantime, players who appeared like comets and then disappeared without rumors could not be counted.
Hundreds of people just died in the rift after coming out as if something really happened.
‘But why did it happen on a day like this?’
What a surprise appearance.
Starting with that outfit.
But that’s all.
It was natural.
Rocks ranked second in the player rankings.
Wasn’t he the one who had often seen monsters worse than that, including the No. 1 Skal?
Still, it’s a sword that changes form. I was interested in the weapon I used.
“If you have nothing more to say, let’s go?”
Then Camilla and Dmitri rose from their seats.
“Today I made a big deal out of it and rented the entire hotel lounge. It’s not even refundable. Even a date has to be successful, really.”
“I’ll go in too~ Captain~ Don’t be too sensitive~”
Goodbye to our pretty ones too.
The two of them ran away while Rox looked away for a moment.
Now, only one person is left.
It was only Jessie Heinness, who was ranked fourth in the player rankings.
“…?”
Rox tilted his head. That Jesse Heinness was staring at the man on the screen. It was something I hadn’t seen in the usual Jesse.
yes just a few hours ago.
It was the bright eyes that were invisible even when hunting monsters in the rift.
Rox asked cautiously.
“…why? Do you think you know something, Jesse?”
“…so strange.”
“Interesting? Isn’t it more strange that you say that?”
Anything to look out for?
I asked because I wanted to hear the reason.
No answer came back.
That’s because Jesse wasn’t in the mood to answer.
‘What kind of skill is that?’
class mage.
One of the most common classes, but Jesse was special.
among players of the same class.
A class quest that only one person can complete.
Because Jesse was in the middle of the wizard’s class quest.
While carrying out the class quest, Jesse felt, realized, and learned the magic of countless arcana. But the magic that unfolds on the screen…
‘something different.’
It was definitely different.
The biggest difference above all is that they didn’t memorize the order.
Of course, he was able to cast magic without chanting.
However, the efficiency at that time was very low.
The consumption of mana increases and the effect weakens.
But the man on the screen…
‘There’s nothing like that at all!’
no It could have been the other way around.
What if the effect is that much even though the efficiency is low?
How high is the replacement horsepower?
Jesse’s eyes sparkled with curiosity.
That got on Rox’s nerves even more.
“…?!”
That moment.
A line of an article about the man passed through the subtitles on the screen.
[Mysterious player “Out of formality… I won’t take any questions.”]
…Did he really say that?
Rocks couldn’t contain his astonishment.
If I had to live up to my own taste, it was Rocks, who was saddened by the number two.
He had never even imagined making such a cheeky remark.
‘…What are you crazy doing?’
It’s not enough that Shining’s victory and his achievement of level 400 were buried.
The Jesse is showing interest.
On top of that, he has a personality that makes even himself stick out his tongue.
That said, there were not one or two unbelievable points.
.
.
.
Yes, it was a shocking debut.
The appearance of the mysterious player, Ho-yeol, was unprecedented.
-Is this a true story ㅋㅋ The magic scale goes down once -Look at
everyone
standing still from 7:10
ㅋㅋㅋ
There was also a program that analyzed the every move of Ho-yeol.
“Now, if you look here, you’re really unarmed.”
“Are you really wearing a suit under a long coat?”
“Even if you look at your fingers or neck or ears, you can’t see a single accessory.”
“So you’re saying you used that kind of magic with your bare body?”
“Does that make sense? Park Nam-bong expert?”
Because the shabby armor didn’t fit the formality.
I just didn’t wear any jewelry because I didn’t have them.
“The eyes to see the war situation are also very good. I realized that the enemy’s mobility was a problem and immediately changed the terrain.”
“Seeing you again, even if it was a little late, I was dizzy.”
“It’s as if your quick judgment saved Gaon and Inazuma.”
He had no intention of saving anyone.
Enough to bring it to the law of action and reaction.
I just did the best I could.
“That’s not enough, so here it is. Aren’t you just watching from here on out? This will undoubtedly be considerate. Gaon and Inazuma. Where do you compete properly? That’s what it feels like.”
“Are you considerate? Care in that rift?”
“Yes, it is an act that cannot be explained otherwise. This.”
It wasn’t that he was considerate, it was just that he had run out of mana.
But to know that fact.
There was only Ho-yeol, the party involved.
Even if he was a ranker with a special eye for seeing, there was no difference.
Guild Berserker’s base camp.
Whirik—
I shouted, throwing the blanket Leonie was covering into the air.
“Hey! did i say that?! Didn’t you say that wasn’t normal?!”
“sister. okay. Calm down and cover yourself with a blanket. Do you catch a cold then?”
“But what are these? I don’t have eyes to see Mr. Kwak. Are you really going to turn everything upside down?”
Guild Inazuma.
“I thought that silver hair was Korean…”
“Now that it has happened, we must bring it to our side.”
“Hisagi Kazuma. I will definitely carry out my mission.”
Even Gaon’s Namssi brothers.
“You really should have grabbed me by the collar to convince me.”
“Whoa—yeah, it was my mistake. How can you not recognize such potential?”
“…But looking back, there was no lack of formality, right?”
“I know. This wasn’t an interview, it was a market bottom.”
“Looking at the trembling eyebrows, you must have endured a lot. I almost misunderstood again. You thought I was saying that because I’m a barbarian because I’m not formal.”
“…That may not necessarily be wrong.”
“what? Even my brother is like that?!”
The trembling of the eyebrows was also an aftereffect of magical exhaustion…
but even that was something that could not be noticed.
In any case, interest in Ho-yeol did not seem to cool down for a while.
Especially in Korea, the story about the mysterious player Ho-yeol was in full swing no matter what channel you turned.
And that kind of atmosphere.
It was the best time for demons to move.
[The Count’s Fortress]
[Recommended level: Lv.400-450]
[Collapse progress: 100%]
“…What is it? It must have been 90 percent until just now?!”
“Everyone, avoid!!”
“Get as far away as possible!!”
Collapse is 100%.
The rift collapsed and a castle was born in reality.
Vampire Count Ascura.
He appeared in Russia.
It was a sudden collapse.
The screen immediately switched and the anchor delivered the breaking news.
When new cracks are updated.
What I feared the most had come true.
“Guilds from all over the world are gathering around the fort one after another. Shining’s guild master Rocks revealed that he was planning to enter the fort without delay…”
However, Ho-yeol also expected this development.
– Vampires can share their powers through blood. Of course, it is possible to take back the ability that was shared. So don’t be vigilant until the end.
So there was no carelessness.
sweaty body.
Stacks of paper on the table piled up again.
Further up to the status window.
[Name: Grandfell Cloudy Arpheus Romeo]
[Class: Demon Hunter]
[Level: 100]
[Ability Level]
Strength: 27 / Agility: 33 / Magical Power: 51 / Luck: 2
[Possession Points: 0]
The proof is remained everywhere.
To stay aloof and not sink.
The swan does not rest its legs even for a moment.
*
Day reading.
I tried to build up my knowledge of the Arcana.
Because I had a gap of 12 years.
But even I could easily perceive the seriousness of the situation. Because that’s common sense. At least the defense side has an advantage in a siege.
…Besides, this must be psychologically shrinking, right?
The citadel of the county of Ascura.
It was a size that made my chest feel magnificent just by looking at it.
“Wouldn’t it be a big deal if I lost my way?”
“Why don’t we send in the scouting party first?”
“…No, he’s not an easy opponent enough to split the main unit.”
The gate was wide open.
As if intruders were always welcome.
Thanks to that, most of the players were waiting at the entrance.
Again—
but I was moving forward.
Aren’t you overwhelmed by its grandeur?
Fortunately or unfortunately, that didn’t happen.
That’s right, the Cloudy family’s mansion in my dark history.
It was so vast that it was embarrassing to compare it to such a performance.
I looked around the inside of the citadel and said.
“It’s cramped and there’s not even a good place to hide. Ascura.”
He added with a more confident tone.
“But even this is too much for you.”
Did you even hear my voice?
Suddenly—
a statue in the garden began to move.
…big. At least 10 meters. This.
The giant monster statue came to life and was approaching me.
But I didn’t run or dodge.
Just standing still in place.
I carefully looked at the face of the statue.
I immediately opened my mouth.
“The material, texture, depth, and shape of the statue are lousy. You’ve done well to leave this garbage-like statue in the garden as something to be proud of.”
Grandfel’s demanding aesthetic sense was saying that.
Yes, I was the same too.
I don’t know much about other things, but at least one ‘material’.
‘There are a few walls and pillars I built and broke.’
A stone statue carved out of rock.
Because it was a very common ingredient for me too.
This means that 『Search』 and 『Interference』 do not require much effort.
Kwajik-!
