Closed Beta That Only I Played

Chapter 76: An Example (2)

Chapter 76: An Example (2)

Teleport Zone of Perero Castle.

A group of people sat quietly in one corner. Of course, one of them was busily moving around. Shortly afterwards, this person yelled out.

It was none other than Sakamoto.

“We"ve found him! Everyone, move to the abandoned field of trees!”

He shouted loudly. At that moment, the group of people gathered in one corner moved hastily to the abandoned field of trees he mentioned.

There were a total of 64 people, including Sakamoto himself, who moved to the abandoned field.

Sakamoto opened his mouth while looking at the other 63 people.

“If any of you knows about this abandoned tree field, tell me now.”

He knew this was the place where they would fight against the strong guy named Asirante. So, it was crucial to know the monsters and geography of this hunting ground beforehand.

Some of them had some experience with visiting the place, so they began to brief him about it.

After listening to the information, Sakamoto asked, “Wait a minute. Why did he come here when he knew that this was such an unpopular hunting ground?”

“…”

“…”

“…”

No one responded to his question.

In fact, most low-level users left this place because it was too difficult. Higher level users who could deal with this difficulty, such as those around Level 400 or Level 500, left this place as well since there were many better hunting grounds.

Besides, this place didn"t even give any special items compared to other hunting grounds.

“Hmm. I just can"t figure out what kind of person this guy is,” Sakamoto muttered after hearing no reply from his men.

But he immediately spoke loudly for he could not stop here just because he couldn"t figure Asirante out.

“I know you guys here gathered for all kinds of reasons. Some of you are here to take revenge, and some of you are here for money. But at this moment, you are all comrades of the great Mitsuya Guild!”

Mitsuya Group was j.a.pan"s top business group, comparable to Korea"s Mirae Group, and the Mitsuya Guild was the best guild in the j.a.panese server for “Revival Legend”.

Ryu Sechi, theMitsuya Group"s chairman, had grasped the importance of “Revival Legend” quicker than anyone else and had ruthlessly nipped any rival in the bud using both his in-game power and business power in the real world.

When he was done getting rid of his rivals in j.a.pan, he began to pay attention to the outside world because he knew that the server" wall" would collapse someday.

Then he found the stone squirrel"s undigested mineral ma.s.ses in Korea, which he tried so desperately to find in the j.a.panese “Revival Legend” server, but couldn"t.

Of course, Ryu Sechi knew that one global server supplied the whole of Revival Legend, but it was divided up by something that could be called an ‘invisible barrier" or just a ‘wall" to separate the server for the different countries.

So, depending on luck, it was possible that a significantly better hunting ground existed in other countries. For example, a place like the hunting ground with the stone squirrels that Ryu Sechi had been looking for so desperately.

Anyway, Ryu Sechi felt it was unfair. He wondered why there was something like this in Korea"s ‘Revival Legend" that didn"t exist in j.a.pan"s ‘Revival Legend."

But he didn"t stay disappointed for long. He moved right away because he thought he could control it even if he didn"t have access to it.

He thought that when the wall broke down, he could take over it immediately.

So, he carefully recruited people in Korea using his power in the real world.

To make sure his plan was not leaked, he gathered only those with resentment against Korea or were greedy for money, and excluded those with traits.

But he fortunately hired some guys with traits like Sakamoto.

Anyway, he carefully instructed them to collect the stone squirrel"s undigested mineral ma.s.ses. And just when he was collecting them aggressively, he was attacked and robbed by a man named Asirante.

He was upset because he had lost everything even though he used the utmost caution and prudence for fear of being caught.

So, as he could not take revenge against Myongjin because of the wall, he ordered his men to make Asirante, the culprit responsible for all these incidents, unable to play this game under any circ.u.mstances.

At Ryu Sechi"s order, Sakamoto hired some people inside Korea and selected the strongest among them, before leading them to the abandoned field of trees.

Now, Sakamoto led 63 strong men and carefully stepped into the abandoned field of trees.

Before starting the operation, he announced that those who were killed in action would be compensated appropriately, and the one who killed Asirante would be given 100 million in cash on the spot.

And he emphasized that this was not a one-off event.

He said his goal was to make this guy called Asirante unable to access the game. He added that if they were lucky, they could make hundreds of millions or billions of Korean won.

Of course, n.o.body didn"t welcome his reward for killing Asirante because such a large amount of money would even make them forget their resentments.

So, they moved aggressively. Among the 64 men was Soktae Kang.

“Pouring Hailstones!”

Pitter-patter! Pitter-patter!

I used the hails toward the long-rooted Sapling, which was standing helplessly like a scarecrow because its only means of attack was blocked by my Ice Field.

Of course, characteristic of AOE skills, each hailstone was weak compared to single target skills such as Ice Ball or Ice Bolt. But the Pouring Hailstones I used were different.

Aside from its destructive power, the amount of hail was just enormous. If I exaggerated a bit, it was like a rain shower. They rained down on the tree monster like a rain shower.

And the hailstones kept hitting the same spots of the tree monster repeatedly.

Its trunk was hollowed out, and lots of branches were broken despite its considerable defense power. In the end, its trunk collapsed.

The long-rooted tree monster had an unusual AOE attack and a considerable defense power to make up for its immobility.

But all of that was nothing to me.

While the roots of the long-rooted tree were dying helplessly, the sweet sound of a message rang, which was pleasant to my ears whenever I heard it.

[You have levelled up.]

“Hhhhhhhh.”

I could not not control my urge to laugh, but I stopped immediately because I heard some sounds, and multiple ones at that. .

Of course, this was a hunting ground, so it was highly likely that monsters had appeared.

This was a good possibility in other hunting grounds, but it was impossible here because the long-rooted tree monster could only move its roots.

As expected, instead of monsters, a considerable number of men appeared.

Apparently they didn"t come here for hunting, but for some other purpose.

Tramp, tramp.

The enemies began to appear one by one. Of course, they hadn"t shown any hostile behavior to me yet. But they must be my enemy because although I never invited them, they obviously came to see me on purpose since they stopped right in front of me.

And someone among them was familiar to me, so I became more convinced that they were my enemy.

It was Soktae Kang, the leader of the former Gahwa Guild, who had pledged revenge against me just before I killed him.

He appeared as a member of this group. But I was a little puzzled because they found me so easily. If it was this easy to track me, then Daesung or Kusan would have found me a long time ago even if I wore a robe and mask to hide my ident.i.ty.

Anyway, Soktae Kang, the only one that I knew, stepped out of the group in front of me.

Then he hurled abusive words at me just like he had messaged me before.

“Asirante, you son of a b.i.t.c.h! We"re going to kill you!”

A total of 64 men were standing before me.


But I ignored his swear words, then began to count the group"s number because I felt they would attack me ruthlessly anytime soon.

At this moment, another guy began to walk toward me slowly, spitting out in a low heavy voice, “Move aside!”

“Ah yes…” Soktae said meekly.

Soktae walked out impressively as if was the leader of this group, but he looked so meek now.

Given that he stepped back and bowed at this man"s order, I realized that this man was the true leader of the group.

After ordering Soktae to step back, he immediately asked me, “Are you Asirante who interfered with our work?”

“Yes, that"s right.”
