Chapter 129. < Episode 41. Triple-headed troll (3). >
7.
In God Wars, players displayed superhuman abilities as their level increased.
It was possible to jump more than 10 meters from the spot, easily climb a cliff that was no different from a 90 degree incline, or fly a monster dozens of meters away with just a head-butt.
The fact was the same with the monsters.
Of course, flying or rolling dozens of meters from being hit by a monster could have happened at any time.
It also happened surprisingly often.
If you are a melee dealer tanker, this is something that you have to go through more than once during a boss monster raid.
When you’ve been through something like that, the important thing is to keep your mental state as intact as possible while flying or rolling and prepare for the next one. Whether or not you can prepare for the next time, the survival rate differed greatly depending on that.
Because of this, players trained.
Same with Midas.
It was a training that he had to do as a matter of course from his point of view, who could not even cut his brother and nephew’s food supply the moment he was game over.
‘ah…. ‘
That’s why Midas’ mind was very clear in the situation where normal players would be distracted by falling from the golem.
‘……I’m embarrassed.’
The embarrassment I felt, of course, was also clear.
Cheeky!
Eventually, the moment Midas fell to the floor, Midas made a desperate wish.
‘Take it somewhere else… … Please be different!’
I hope that the Rising Star channel will broadcast a scene other than this embarrassing scene of yourself.
Of course that didn’t happen.
The Rising Star Channel had never discussed directing in advance, and of course they didn’t know if it was directing or an accident.
Rather, they found a screen angle that could better capture the tumbling BJ Grand Wizard and broadcast it live.
Even after falling to the floor, the screen was divided into three and the scene viewed from the side and front was simultaneously transmitted from above.
In such a situation, Midas rose from his seat.
And then I got into a position.
The posture that seems to land well with two legs is the so-called hero landing posture.
In that state, I glanced at the chat window.
– It rolled.
– It rolled.
In response, Midas let out a big cough and then said,
“haha! How is it? It’s a no-jam broadcast, so I deliberately rolled it once. ha ha ha!”
Viewers reacted immediately to those words.
– Are you serious?
– You’re not joking, are you really rolling?
– Wow, it was real! It was a real mistake!
On the contrary, viewers were convinced that this was not a joke, but a real happening to Midas’ reaction.
Seeing that, Midas spoke again.
“A real? It is directing. Production! Could it be that I really went out of my mind thinking about using physical magic and stumbled over there without noticing that I was on top of the golem? Do I look that stupid?”
It was then.
king!
Lucky wagging his tail with a cry came closer to Midas.
In Lucky’s approaching appearance, he did not see the strength of a fierce beast that he had shown against the triple-headed troll.
Panting!
It was as if a puppy who had done a great job couldn’t control his joy at the thought of being praised by his owner.
That look was proof.
Proof that this battle is over.
king!
Midas said at the sight of Lucky coming to him and rubbing his head against his leg.
“Lucky, you explain.”
king!
“Yes, yes.”
king!
“The owner told me he was going to direct this beforehand? yes? Surely this was a pre-prepared production?
king!
“Look at this, am I right?”
Viewers reacted immediately to Midas’ appearance.
[BJ Great Mage Chuhada donated 1 dollar.]
[ Why is it our shame
?
Sponsored.]
Sponsorships and chats mocking Midas began pouring in as if they had been waiting for this moment.
“Oh really! Because it’s directing!”
Midas showed an angry look at the chat.
‘Well done.’
At the same time, he let out a sigh of relief.
‘It’s better than being in a bad mood.’
It’s not the best, but it’s not enough to say it’s the second best.
‘Tsk.’
Of course, that wasn’t the best case scenario.
‘If I used physical magic there, the picture would come out properly.’
If the original plan had been followed, it could have brought about a more enthusiastic response.
As if trying to console Midas, who was brooding over his regret, a notification sounded in his ears.
[The one who caught the Triple Head Troll alone has obtained the title]
[The Triple Head Troll Hunter title has been obtained]
[The one who is unscathed has obtained the title]
A whopping 3 title rewards.
That wasn’t the end.
[The quest conditions have been met.]
[The level has risen.]
[The level has risen.]
A sweet level-up notification was also heard.
‘With this, level 109.’
After that notification, Midas turned and looked at the body of the fallen triple-headed troll.
A corpse of enormous size.
‘This is mine.’
Looking at the corpse of such a triple-headed troll, Midas was sentimental for a while.
It was also true that it had been a long time since he had seen such a gigantic monster corpse up close.
There were many times I had caught a bigger boss monster than this, but Midas, who was only a temporary hired extra, was not allowed to get close to the boss monster.
Being able to see such a huge corpse of a monster up close was only possible for the chosen ones.
“Item loot.”
And rooting an item in front of such a monster was something that only the most chosen among them could do, the leader of the group.
[Item rooting begins.]
[4 items have been added to the inventory.]
Soon after, a notification was heard.
At the same time, the chat window became cluttered.
– What did you get?
– Show me what you ate!
– Please release a new item!
– Let’s go unboxing right away!
The clutter quickly turned into heat.
That would be the case, and if an item is released here, it will also be released for the first time.
‘I can make one more video just by revealing the item, but I can’t spray it here.’
In other words, it was a situation that Midas had to save.
While Midas paused for a while, the atmosphere in the chat room began to flow from demand to compulsion.
The atmosphere that this heat might create a backlash if the item is not shown.
A savior came to Midas.
“You are the one who met me.”
He, who had the same appearance as the NPC Natharsa Ghost, spoke to Midas while looking down at him from above Midas’ head.
– Are you Ghost?
– uh? speak?
The sudden appearance made the chat window cluttered.
‘Nice timing!’
Midas said with a smile.
“Since we have to proceed with the scenario from now on, we will end the live performance here.”
With those words, Midas snapped his fingers.
It was the moment the live ended.
8.
“Kia Ho!”
The first thing Midas did when the live ended was a cheering dance.
“I did it! Fuck I did it!”
The situation where the best scenario came out among the scenarios planned in advance.
And in that scenario, Midas was able to complete it with as few mistakes as possible.
‘This one is great.’
Through this live broadcast, it is possible to leap to a higher place once again.
NPC Natarsa approached the cheering Midas and looked at Midas’ hand and said,
“Looking at the Guardian’s gloves, it seems that he met me in the Mirage Forest.”
Midas stopped cheering at the question of NPC Natarsa, who seemed to be seeing him for the first time.
The question didn’t last long.
“Is your soul separated?”
It wasn’t difficult to figure out the background situation.
“I don’t think a long explanation is necessary.”
NPC Natarsa nodded at Midas’ question and immediately gestured and moved somewhere.
Midas didn’t ask the NPC Natarsa a question.
‘There’s no need to tackle the quest if it goes smoothly.’
More than anything, Midas was curious.
‘Rather than that, what options will this time be?’
What are the options for the item given this time?
With that doubt in mind, Midas sneakily opened the quest window.
[Triple Head Troll’s Nest]
– Quest Rank: Main Scenario
– Quest Level: Level 100 or higher
– Quest Content: Defeat the Triple Head Troll in the Triple Head Troll’s Nest!
– Quest Reward: Guardian’s Headband
! Upon completion of the quest, you can proceed with ‘Guardian’s Last Treasure’.
A smile crept across Midas’ lips as he confirmed the contents of the quest.
‘There’s no way I can do anything about it.’
Even just looking at the Guardian’s gloves, it has already been confirmed that the Guardian set is Legendary level or higher.
‘If you wear elf’s boots on your headband… … ‘
Moreover, as a reward for this quest, he was given an elf’s boots.
A situation where two parts of a legendary item were added at once.
“It’s here.”
Before long, NPC Natarsa stopped walking.
There was nothing there to stop.
There is only the scenery of the forest.
‘oh my god.’
But Midas could see clearly.
A head-sized stone that melted into the surrounding landscape, and a thin headband wrapped around it.
[Guardian’s headband]
– Grade: Legendary
– Wearable level: 105 or higher
– Protector Natarsa’s headband. Absorbs the power of Mother Nature and grants the guardians mystical powers.
– Strength +61
– Stamina +59
– Intellect +213
– Magic +155
– Attack Power +16
– Camouflage skill can be used when worn
– Bind when learned (untradeable)
Looking at the option of such a headband, Midas hardened as it was.
There was no admiration.
‘Camouflage… … ‘
It was the moment when an option that I couldn’t even imagine, let alone expected, appeared.
To him, NPC Natarsa spoke to Midas.
“Now we have one last one left.”
[A new quest has been created in the main scenario quest list.]
9.
Disaster.
In a situation where Emma had no choice but to say that, what she did was nothing but face-to-face.
– However, I often eat products made at advertised places these days. It was good. I ate this again. This is pretty good, but I’m thinking about buying stock.
She watched the man’s every move until the end, making everything funny about her.
– Since we have to proceed with the scenario from now on, we will end the live.
It was only after the live broadcast ended that she turned her head.
Next to her was Merlin, who watched all of this from beginning to end just like her, and he also spoke for the first time after BJ Grand Mage’s broadcast ended.
“It’s been funny.”
short talk.
Merlin’s mood as he uttered such words was more serious than ever.
It wasn’t just words that I just spat out because I had nothing to throw, but it was proof that I brought out my sincerity from the depths of my heart.
That’s why the words had to be more terrifying than any other words.
“At this level, it is a joke.”
Because the person who said this meant that the center of absolute power in God Wars, the Abyss Guild, was now sincerely distorted.
It was an expression of will.
“It’s hard to stay still.”
It was an expression of will to stop doing such behind-the-scenes work and that it would be better to crush it from the front in some way.
If it was possible, he expressed his desire to punish the BJ Archmage who insulted him in the name of the Abyss Guild.
Emma said to Merlin.
“For now, we have to wait for an answer from above.”
It is said that they are already out of the stage where they can do something for themselves.
“yes.”
Merlin nodded as if he understood.
“Anyway, one thing is certain. Now, if you try to catch him with a request or something clumsy, it will only enrich his inventory.”
Even so, he did not give up the conversation and asked the question again.
“And no matter what is said above, you have no intention of leaving BJ Archmage alone like this, are you?”
Emma answered the question.
“Maybe the answer is to just leave it alone.”
“what?”
“It is literally. They say that doing nothing to BJ Grand Mage might be the answer. That no one touches. Just like before, he’ll be alone.”
An unintelligible answer.
“but.”
But the moment he heard that answer, Merlin nodded as if something had popped into his head.
“Because the next hunting ground is the night forest.”
night forest.
“Wearwolves and their hordes come out.”
and werewolf.
Remembering those two things, Merlin stuck out his tongue.
“It’s definitely not easy to hunt alone in a place where more than 15 players hunt in groups.”
At that, Emma nodded.
Now, the hunting ground that BJ Grand Mage will face is a stage where you have to deal with a group, not an individual.
If it was a party hunt, it could be done, but if not, it was a stage where the difficulty level rose rapidly.
“But considering its firepower, there is no reason not to hunt.”
Of course, considering the ability that BJ Archmage has shown so far, there was nothing that couldn’t be done even though the difficulty level would rise.
“Yes. Instead, we can buy time.”
Afterwards, Merlin shook his head.
“It would have been better if BJ Grand Mage was on the same level as us, but then he would be able to destroy it right away.
Emma answered Merlin’s words.
“It probably won’t come for eternity.”
Ugh!
The moment she finished answering, Emma’s smartphone vibrated briefly.
Emma immediately checked the screen.
Seeing that, Merlin said.
“If you are in a hurry, will you accept it? I will avoid your seat if necessary.”
“It’s nothing.”
Emma’s expression as she touched the call rejection button along with the answer was calm, as if it was nothing really.
Merlin asked her a question.
“Then what are you planning to do while you buy time?”
“I must do something.”
blunt answer.
But Emma already had an answer.
‘Park Yeong-joon’s priority is to deal with him now.’
Because now Park Young-joon has started to move.
