Chapter 61 Jukchang Daejeon (9)
After the second round of the Jukchang Daejeon ended.
Public opinion was more favorable than expected.
-Wow, this is getting more and more fun?
-I know. It was more exciting than the 1st episode, which was something Jung-gu heating.
-Ah, I think it would have been really fun if I had survived. it's a shame.
The Arfandia community is filled with stories that are so much fun and regretful that I can't participate. In addition, game-related articles posted on various portals also covered this event favorably.
[Jukchang Daejeon is getting more and more exciting. List of leading candidates for the championship.] If
the first round of the Jukchang Daejeon took place in chaos due to the large number of participants, this time, the process of a small number of people surviving through fierce strategies and mindful battles was impressive. In particular, there were users who stood out in sporadic battles, and among them, we predicted who would be the last survivor. First.....
[The bamboo spear revolutionaries were annihilated in shock alone.]
[Speedy swordsman Casillas. What is his identity?]
Among the various articles, these are the topics that draw the most attention. It was Casillas, the swift swordsman who first revealed his existence in the second playthrough. Unusually, he did not refuse interview requests flooding in from all over the place, and revealed who he was by revealing himself to the public.
[I don't know if it's because I enjoyed action RPG games a lot in the past, but it was pretty easy, right? If the timing is right, you can unleash an infinite attack by linking skills. Of course, you have to put a lot of flat hits in between.]
[Ah, how do you hit flat hits? I just imagined my movement in my head and moved my body to say that it would move. It's a motion that you can't do in real life even if you tell it to do it, but what... I wonder if it can be specially calibrated or it works in virtual reality?]
His body movements seemed to ignore gravity and the laws of physics. His flamboyant physicality, reminiscent of a stuntman, was far out of the realm of control that ordinary people could overstep.
-Wow..... No, that's okay?
-I tried to follow the video after watching the interview, but it was absolutely impossible.
- It's a deception! deception! how do you follow that
His physical ability is to do three rotations in the air, run on the wall, but do it over hundreds of meters. Looking at it, people were able to clearly realize the reality that the crotch of a cuckoo is torn while copying a stork.
[Hmm... Well, maybe I'm special, but I don't think so. There may be people who are better than me, and I enjoy a lot of action games, so it's just because I have a more specialized part in that area. Maybe people who enjoy action games can do something similar to me?]
An action game where combos and skill connections are the most important. Casillas, who uses his experience to the fullest, shows off his unrivaled power in Arcadia. As interviews about him began to spread widely, there were even people who praised him blindly.
- Ohhhh. Combo attack is the best.....
-Those who want to start playing Arcadia First of all, complete Dead Soul, the highest peak of action games, to Ⅲ before coming.
- Not stagnant water, but rotten water. No, it's a level that only those who have become oil can climb..... It's
not just strength, it's cool and cool in the splendid production, so there are even people who volunteer to be fans of Casillas. However, despite such explosive popularity, Arcadia's employees did not pay any attention to him. No, to be precise, I couldn't afford to pay attention to him.
Kwah bang.
“Aaaaaaaa! What is that bastard really!”
The process of checking the final survivors of the 2nd Jukchang Daejeon. Dex, a person of interest discovered in the process. Even if I wanted to detect and monitor him in real time, I couldn't do that, so I didn't know at all during the second round, but after breaking up with Angelina, I knew where he was heading after the second round ended.
“hey! That poisonous mist! What did you set that up for?”
Team leader Jang Tae-young goes mad as he slams the desk with his fist, almost losing his sanity halfway. The employee, who read the madness in his bloodshot eyes, hurriedly played the keyboard with a sharp look, and soon came up with the answer he wanted.
“With the settings we made... It is a deadly poison that causes a level 200 level of poisoning.”
Poisoning level 200. That means you can survive for 10 minutes with the average ability of a level 200. Considering that the current maximum level of the 2nd Continent was over 160, I could guarantee that no one could survive in this poison gas.
“yes? But what about that bastard?”
But Dex is sitting in the grass, yawning and making a bored expression. Despite the poison gas that filled his surroundings, he inhaled and exhaled as if there was no effect at all.
“That... could be the effect of an item...?”
A dex that is estimated to be able to produce the only class item. Considering the performance of the item he made, I thought he might have worn an item related to poison resistance, but I had no choice but to shut up in a hurry at Team Leader Jang Tae-young's tearing eyes.
“Did you forget to put restrictions on wearing items?”
“Ah... that’s right. sorry.”
“.....”
The office fell into silence in an instant. But someone carefully brought up another guess.
“Isn’t that... a skill effect?”
“skill?”
“Yes..... It's not an item problem, but the level of poison gas we've set isn't that low either... I think the most likely reason is related to skills.”
“.....”
Team leader Jang Tae-young was silent for a moment at those words. After answering, he looked at the nervous staff and asked again.
“Check what level or higher the skill level must be in order to be fully immune to the poison that causes level 200 poisoning.”
“All right.”
The employee, who had been playing with the keyboard while typing something for a short time as if he was running a simulation, replied with a tilt of his head.
“Basic toxic resistance is at least rank 3... Even assuming you have a higher level resistance skill, you need to be at least rank 5 to get full immunity.”
“It’s Rank 3... Do you think it’s possible for the current user to have that level of skill rank?”
To that question, the employee shook his head without hesitation.
“Absolutely impossible. I don't know if it's a normal attack skill, but in the case of a resistance skill, it doesn't make sense to reach such a high rank in such a short time.”
Skill rank system divided into stages from F to A rank and 9 to 1 rank. It was a level that could be climbed by training hard for several months to A rank, but skill training boasted extreme difficulty and labor to the extent that one had to devote a tremendous amount of time to training from entering the number rank to climbing one by one. Especially in the case of resistance series.
“I don't know if you've been in a poisoned state since you opened it and haven't taken a single day off, but if that's not the case, it's impossible to raise your poison resistance to level 3.”
The staff speaks in a very firm tone. However, team leader Jang Tae-young gritted his teeth so strongly that he was worried that he might break them as he watched Dex try to take a nap with such a relaxed attitude as if he was refuting the employee's words.
puddeudeuk.
“however! Why is that bastard like that?! Aaaaaa!”
Please, please, the existence that I wished to be eliminated. The fact that he passed the second round so comfortably while hiding from poison gas without even lifting a finger made Team Leader Jang Tae-young angry.
“Please calm down. Didn't that user named Angelina drop out though?”
Angelina with a set of poverty. She still fought desperately for survival with fraudulent weapons, but was it because she couldn't wear a complete set? Although he struggled in a battle with a ranker he encountered by chance, he was unable to overcome the limits of low circle magic and ended up being eliminated.
“The girl didn't care! I hoped that bastard would be eliminated!”
The existence that gave Angelina a ridiculous item in her hands. The anxiety he felt was even greater because he was an unknown being who was completely blocked from access to even the slightest bit of information.
“Um... Chief?”
“why!”
“Well... Whatever it is, shouldn't the rules regarding that poison gas be changed? If you do it like this again in the third round...” A
fierce battle for survival between 100 elite users.
The time when the last survivor who won the breathtaking battle is about to claim the glory and reward as the victor while cheering. What if you're left alone and the game doesn't end?
[Number of survivors remaining: 2] It
is said that there are definitely survivors, but the final winner is looking for another opponent who does not even exist in a narrow space where poison gas has flowed all the way to the center of the island. In the end, he slowly dies from the poison gas that completely engulfed the entire island without finding his opponent.
And team leader Jang Tae-young, who imagined the image of the users watching in real time and Dex hiding in the poison gas and not lifting a finger, remaining as the final winner and collecting rewards, shuddered as if in horror.
“no! Absolutely no way!”
Team leader Jang Tae-young ran to Manager Kang Tae-hoon at those words. Because of his strong insistence, the rules of the 3rd Jukchang Daejeon were changed again.
[3rd level manager Kwon Myeong-han, executive director. Execution of manager's authority.]
[Adjustment of Poison Mist's rating. Superlative level.]
[Added nullification of resistance skills.]
[Inflicts the highest level of poisoning.]
[This is an unreasonable additional patch that uses the authority of the administrator, but shoots a specific number of people.]
[Warning. An additional penalty will be added accordingly.]
The artificial intelligence Alice warns against the exercise of authority by the managing director who has recommended it. But as if he couldn't help it, he muttered an excuse with a frustrated and bitter expression.
“What would you do if it was unfair? It goes against our purpose.”
[It is recommended to consider various situations in advance and prepare countermeasures.]
Alice, an artificial intelligence who is fair to everyone and a thorough principled person because she is not human.
She reacted sharply and warned Executive Director Kwon Myung-han, as if she didn't like this situation, where unfavorable patches were continuously applied to certain users who had not planned in advance.
[Currently, 2 unreasonable ex officio patches made with the administrator's authority have been accumulated. We warn that the request may be rejected and reported to the upper level in the event of an additional unreasonable ex officio patch being triggered.]
Ellis is currently making a bloody statement of two outs. At her words, Kwon Myung-han nodded bitterly.
“Okay... I promise. This will be the very last patch for this event.”
[All right. I'll save that promise in the database.]
As if the business was over, the monitor screen turns off and Alice disappears. Executive Director Myung-Han Kwon looked at the monitor that was turned off and sighed.
“Now... this is the end of this damn event...”
Executive Director Myung-Han Kwon, who was relieved that there was only one last episode left, didn't know.
That the promise he had just made with Alice that this would be his last was a crazy thing he should never have done.
And Dex is a fraud by itself.
That he is a game genius with the reputation of being one-man invincible.
