Chapter 247. < Episode 80. Once solo, forever solo (1). >
1.
Everyone who participates in the race game wants to be number one.
That is why sometimes the competitors who participated in the race would engage in unspoken collusion.
While checking each other’s pace, we would gather our stamina that way by quietly slowing down.
The same was true of the Gold Hyena Raid.
At first, even if I sprinted competitively, I would slow down as if I had made a promise when the ranking was set to some extent and I was about to enter the boss room.
It was a choice I made because I really wanted to win and wanted to exert all my strength in the end, and the viewers who saw that fact knew it.
However, it is true that a vehicle that was running at 200 kilometers per hour without looking back is not very interesting to see it suddenly start running at 100 kilometers per hour.
– Crazy! The midfield guild goes right away without a break!
– BJ Grand Mage opened three bottles of potion!
It was because of that that people are so crazy about the raid race between BJ Grand Mage and the Jungwon Guild.
The two competitors didn’t slow down a bit with the boss raid right in front of them.
– It seems that the midfield guild has no intention of stopping, right? I’m raising my pace.
– It looks like BJ Grand Mage is going to end up for real. Now I eat potions while running.
Rather than slowing down, it was enough to step on the accelerator pedal.
– At this rate, they’re both going to fail?
– No matter how you look at it, it’s impossible.
Now, it was to the point where the onlookers were terrified to see the runaway not looking back at the two of them.
“Will this be okay?”
“Isn’t this going to cause an accident?”
Needless to say, the expressions on the faces of the Rising Star channel staff, who were as if they were sitting in the passenger seat of the runaway car, were so tired that it was hard to find blood.
Only one person, Park Young-joon, was watching the scene with a more satisfied look than usual.
“I’m saying this to cause an accident.”
“yes?
“That accident is what BJ Grand Mage is aiming for.”
In Park Young-joon’s view, the situation unfolding now was the best scenario that BJ Grand Mage could face.
‘In the end, it came down to provocation.’
First of all, the midfield guild eventually countered the BJ master mage’s provocation.
Actually, that was the hardest thing.
No matter how much he provoked them, there was no way that a place like the midfield guild would easily fall for that provocation.
‘I never thought I’d use Azmo this way.’
But did you think Azmo would shake it?
‘This must have been agreed upon in advance.’
Of course, it was clear that the planning itself came from BJ Grand Mage’s head and was made through negotiations with Azmo.
Of course, in this situation, most of them had no choice but to ask the same question.
“But what if BJ Grand Mage fails the raid?”
Can BJ the great mage succeed in the black gold hyena raid while overdoing it like this?
Park Young-joon had the answer to that question.
“If you use up all your stamina, the important thing from then on is resilience. If both of them are covered in scars, BJ Grand Mage has a much better advantage.”
The secret to the stamina that BJ Grand Mage showed right now was resilience, not anything else.
Then, even if the same war of attrition is done, after that, the BJ great mage is much more advantageous.
In fact, the provocation was not easy.
Unless the midfield guild is an idiot, they can’t win in resilience, so there’s no way they’ll accept this end game.
“Still, it’s a monster that wiped out 12 parties, but can you catch it with good recovery?”
However, even taking that into consideration, it was difficult to be optimistic about the situation.
At that point, Park Young-joon laughed and said.
“Yes, so you need plenty of rest.”
“yes?
“Raid races are not records competitions. You just have to come in faster than your competitors.”
Park Young-joon, who was talking, turned his head and looked at the Jungwon Guild.
“Currently, the time difference between the midfield guild and the BJ master mage is 5 minutes and 21 seconds, so a break is enough.”
Only then did the staff understand.
“Wow……
“It looks like BJ Grand Mage really wants to destroy the midfield guild.”
How vicious was what BJ Grand Mage prepared.
Doesn’t that also mean that we are resting before the finish line and waiting for the only competitor to come?
Realizing such a fact, BJ Archmage spoke in front of them sticking out their tongue.
– After the 14th battle, there is only one left before entering the boss room. Then I’ll run right away.
The Rising Star Channel staff, who were nervous at the shout, sighed briefly.
“I won’t be chased by the midfield guild.”
“Oh, I’m glad I didn’t have an accident.”
As Park Young-joon said earlier, after one battle, BJ Grand Mage will take a break.
In other words, the dangerous runaway fortunately ended without an accident.
“It’s the beginning of the final battle.”
“Anything special?”
“doesn’t exist.”
“Okay then let’s all focus! Once you film this, you will be able to breathe.”
The moment the final battle started, the Rising Star Channel staff took their time.
But that leeway did not last long.
As it has been so far, BJ Archmage’s battle with four Blaze Golems ended in an instant, and the moment the battle ended, BJ Archmage said.
– I’ll catch the last one and enter the boss room right away.
huh?
I have no intention of stopping the runaway.
2.
[The maned hyena has been killed.]
[The level has risen.]
The moment he caught the last maned hyena, Midas heard a notification in his ear.
[You can feel the energy of a powerful being right in front of you.]
A notification telling you that you have become the winner of the race that you ran out of breath.
The notification filled the chat window with cheers.
– and! In the end, BJ Grand Mage won!
– Now the midfield guild is on its way to catch the 13th group!
– There is a difference of at least 5 minutes!
– You can’t even win.
It was cheers for the overwhelming victory created by BJ the great mage.
‘It ended up like this.’
However, Midas could not answer the cheers with cheers.
In other words, the fact that he won overwhelmingly meant that the midfield guild was defeated overwhelmingly.
‘The midfield guild will be ashamed.’
From the perspective of the midfield guild, it was something that could not be pleasant in many ways.
Of course, it was unavoidable.
Here, if the BJ Grand Wizard slows down to take care of the midfield guild, that is rather insulting to them.
More than anything, viewers were hoping for it.
[BJ The Great Mage: Black Woo who believes donated $3.]
[BJ The Great Mage Choi Choi donated 2 euros.]
[BJ The Great Mage No. 1 fan donated 100 won.]
Viewers believe in their victory I hope for the best and support with all my might, but isn’t it impossible to show the appearance of taking it easy in front of him?
It was for that reason that I made that statement.
“Then, as I said before, I will enter right away.”
A statement that he would enter the boss room without a break.
– Wow, did you really go right in?
– I won anyway, but I think it would be better to take a break.
Viewers again expressed surprise at the remark.
‘I want to rest.’
In fact, Midas himself also wanted to take a long break here for at least 5 minutes at least once.
‘But if I do that, the midfield guild will really try to kill me.’
However, it was clear that the insult felt by the midfield guild would cross the line.
It would be embarrassing to see an opponent go faster than me in a race, but seeing that opponent relax in front of the finish line and wait for him to come was more than resentful, and would have created a murderous intent.
In times like these, it is more polite to run with all your might until the end.
‘Still, I have to put something like a comma here.’
Of course, it was not the style of BJ Grand Mage to show a desperate figure.
“Guys, if you want to rest, hands.”
Midas asked a question to his colleagues with a slightly playful look on his face.
Of course, no one raised his hand.
king!
Lucky still let out a powerful cry, while Gold and Silver pounded their fists on my chest instead of raising their hands.
“I have no intention of resting until I die!”
“Your words are right!”
The one remaining jackpot only sent bloodier eyes than ever toward the boss room.
– uh? Did BJ Grand Mage raise his hand?
Only one Midas raised his hand.
In response to the reaction of the crowd, Midas lowered the hand he held.
“As expected, no one eats it.”
– I saw you just raised your hand!
– I saw it too!
The fact that viewers hit the chat and said Midas to that fact.
“Shoulder loosen up a little. Shoulder a little. ruler! Then we’ll get right in!”
– Look how he turns.
In that atmosphere, which naturally became pleasant, Midas looked straight towards the boss room.
‘I’ve come this far, but there’s nothing to worry about.’
In fact, it was dangerous to have the number of complicated cases in my head any longer at this moment.
The moment he entered the boss room, there was only one way for Midas to come back alive, and nothing else mattered.
So Midas had only one thought in his head.
‘I’ll move as I prepared.’
With that thought, Midas took a step, and a notification sounded in Midas’ ear.
[You have entered the land of the gold hyenas.]
With that notification, the canyon ended in front of Midas, and instead a wide space of over 1,000 pyeong spread out.
And in the middle of that wide space, a golden glow filled Midas’ eyes.
[Gold Hyena (Lv229)]
!Use Mirage skill whenever HP decreases by 9%
!When HP is 70% or less, ‘Golden Steel’ skill is activated
!HP is 10% or less, ‘Sand Change’ skill is activated
!HP is 0% In case of activation of the ‘God of the Spirit’ skill,
the moment when the gold hyena, the most powerful monster in the land of pioneers, appears.
The size of the gold hyena that appeared like that was considerable.
The height from the legs to the head was 2 meters, the length of the body was about 8 meters, and it was clearly out of standard.
However, before that, it was much smaller than the sand hyena, a middle boss monster that players could encounter in the pioneer lands.
In fact, that made it even more painful.
It has already been verified through Gold’s miniaturization skill that the smaller the size and the more powerful it is, the more difficult it is to deal with.
– Finally, the battle begins.
– No matter how much BJ Grand Mage is, it won’t be easy against Gold Hyena.
In addition, each skill that the gold hyena possessed was difficult.
– Once you get the position, once the mirage is activated, it’s over.
First of all, the Mirage skill, which is activated every time HP decreases by 9%, was very troublesome.
With a skill that literally disappears like a mirage, no matter how many positions you hold, you put it to shame at once.
– Geumgang mode is also annoying.
– Damage really doesn’t stick.
After that, the second phase mode, Geumgang mode, was also a headache.
Just like the word Geumgang, the golden body was strengthened and the defense power increased significantly.
Of course, the trickiest was the 3-phase mode.
– Still, compared to sand shoes, he’s a nobleman.
sand mode.
The moment it entered sand mode, Gold Hyena’s body literally became like sand.
An existence that cannot be stopped by any physical event!
However, everyone gathered here knew.
– The problem is next.
If it was just that, there wouldn’t be a whopping 27.12 million viewers coming to BJ Grand Mage’s live broadcast right now.
Same with Midas.
‘The following is important.’
After catching the gold hyena, I knew it was important.
‘I have to save power as much as possible.’
He also knew that he had to conserve his strength as much as possible against the gold hyena.
“Then let’s start the raid.”
The moment Midas snapped a finger along with the horse, the four blaze golems disappeared.
‘Anyway, with the blaze golem’s mobility, it’s just a big punching bag.’
The moment Midas eliminates the most inefficient elements for more efficient combat than ever before.
Aaaaa!
At that moment, the gold hyena let out a fierce cry and let out a roar announcing the start of the battle.
“silver!”
“Yes Master!”
Silver was the first to rush into that roar.
Iron wall set!
Silver, whose strength has already been proven in previous battles, rushed at the Gold Hyena without hesitation.
Krrr!
At the same time, Lucky, Gold, and Lucky’s shadow alter ego moved.
The left side of the bad dog belongs to me!”
The aim is to the left and right and behind the gold hyena!
The four who surrounded the gold hyenas on all sides at once fought a fierce battle.
At the same time, Midas shouted.
“Summon Golem!”
At that casting, a stone golem that was now extremely crude appeared as it was.
– Golem? here?
While viewers questioned the fact, Midas immediately began to climb on top of the golem.
It was a launch pad.
A launch pad that allows you to aim at targets more easily without obstacles in fierce battles!
couw!
The jackpot flew over Midas’ head, standing on the launch pad, and stopped in the air, flapping its wings loudly.
As the wings flapped, silver dust fell, painting Midas’ head and soaking the Golem’s head.
[Leah’s blessing is given.]
Leah’s blessing!
In the midst of the skill effect that speeds up physical and magical recovery on the blessed land, Midas immediately shouted for casting.
“Fireball and Fire Spear and Ice Spear.”
triple cast.
“Familiar Trident, Familiar Inferno.”
And then to the casting using the two familiars.
Midas, who charged five rounds of magic at once, threw the first fireball he had in his hand.
Perong!
The fireball thrown by Midas hit the golden target of the gold hyena’s head, which was moving violently in the fierce battle. Incredible hit rate!
The hit rate after that was also great.
– It fits the foot!
It was then.
In the midst of repeated attacks, the gold hyena suddenly swayed like a mirage and soon disappeared as golden sand dust.
Viewers were shocked by this fact.
– No, the first mirage already activated?
– It seems that BJ Archmage Fireball is stronger than ordinary wizard Inferno.
It was astonishing that Gold Hyena’s HP was reduced in an instant with only basic magic such as Fireball or Fire Spear.
king!
“master!”
Meanwhile, while Lucky and Gold, who had lost their prey, gave out a warning and looked everywhere, Midas’ eyes also looked everywhere. ‘There it is.’
In Midas’ eyes, the location where the gold hyena would appear was displayed as it was.
Naturally, Midas turned to her.
“Familiar Trident.”
Eventually, the moment the golden hyena took shape, Midas, holding the trident he had cast through his familiar, threw it.
Kwajik!
The trident flew off like that and stuck right into the head of the gold hyena that appeared.
– Oh my God, look at the reaction rate!
– Is this crazy possible?
From the viewer’s point of view, the reaction speed is close to divine!
At the same time, it was a very effective attack.
[The Gold Hyena is frozen.]
The time earned by the Trident’s freezing effect gave Lucky and Gold Jackpot another chance to surround it. The battlefield was once again in favor of Midas.
Of course, in that situation, Midas did not have to make complicated movements.
– That was the reason you climbed on top of the golem.
You just have to turn around and sit back.
Because of that, at that moment, no one was worried about BJ Archmage’s gold hyena raid anymore.
[Azmo sponsored $10,112.]
[Azmo: The raid is finished. There’s nothing to see.]
It was such a perfect strategy that even the anticipation disappeared.
Therefore, their interest was only one.
– What will the midfield guild do?
How will the midfield guild act in the face of the situation of the BJ great mage?
Of course, at this moment, the options available to the midfield guild were limited.
– Are you mad and trying to break in?
Ayy, I still have manners. Breaking in is hard.
ㄴI think I’ll just wait until the BJ great mage gives up, then I’ll take on the challenge.
ㄴ Or if BJ Grand Mage asks, catch it together.
There’s a chance we’ll catch it together.
Waiting to break in and join.
Among them, the most probable was joining.
‘If you want to see the phase of the black gold hyena, you should catch it together.’
Right now, Midas is also thinking about cooperative play with the midfield guild.
And that picture was good too.
In any case, from the perspective of the midfield guild, catching the Black Gold Hyena through cooperative play with the BJ Grand Wizard would be a monumental event in its own way.
It was also an opportunity to make up for the image that had been crushed so far.
‘I should at least do that.’
It was also the minimum service that Midas could provide to customers.
So Midas waited for the right time.
‘The moment it transforms into a black gold hyena, let’s ask for help after fighting a few times.’
Let’s join the midfield guild! May the time come when you cry out like that.
It was around that time.
The midfield guild revealed their thoughts.
– uh? The midfield guild has stopped hunting! Yehwa announces a major announcement?
A big announcement?
ㄴ Oh my God, the midfield guild has declared defeat!
3.
Among the talented and famous players in God Wars, there was no one who did not have a friendly spirit.
Yes, she was like that too.
Normally, like a leader, she tries to judge as calmly as possible, but a ferocious beast has settled in her heart.
Of course, in front of BJ Grand Mage’s repeated provocations, her ferocious beast was burning uncontrollably.
Now, there is no such thing as a cold reason.
That’s what she said after killing the 14th pack of maned hyenas.
“The midfield guild declares defeat in the confrontation with BJ Grand Mage from this time on.”
Admit defeat I made a colder rational decision than ever before.
It was none other than Emma, the manager of the Abyss Guild, who turned her head cold.
she asked Yehwa.
– Emma: Yeha, just give up.
to give up
Of course, those words alone did not affect Yehwa in any way.
Far from having an impact, Yehwa was burning to the point of intruding if necessary and fighting against the BJ Grand Mage.
-Emma: If you invade, from that time on, the midfield guild is not easy to even perform properly, let alone become a rival of BJ Grand Mage. That’s the best scenario BJ Grand Mage wants. Because you can completely destroy the midfield guild.
However, the following explanation changed the situation.
Invasion is the scenario BJ Grand Mage wants.
-Emma: Even if it’s not that, if you burn your will to fight here, BJ Grand Mage can ask you to play cooperatively the moment the Black Gold Hyena appears. It is impossible to turn down the offer under that circumstance.
The next thing I want is cooperative play!
The moment she heard the scenario, Yehwa’s whole body got goosebumps.
‘If I make an offer, I can’t refuse.’
Like Emma said, there was no justification for rejecting BJ Grand Mage’s offer of cooperation when the Black Gold Hyena appeared.
In the end, I had to accept the offer, but it was like helping BJ the Great Mage.
‘And if the BJ Archmage plays tricks during the battle, we could be harmed.’
Moreover, Black Gold Hyena has already shown everyone the record of annihilating 12 parties.
Since even the phase wasn’t confirmed properly, it wouldn’t be strange if some kind of mishap occurred.
And if you play cooperatively, the midfield guild will be the one who suffers the most damage in the mishap.
In other words, BJ Grand Mage could have game over the members of the midfield guild through proper manipulation during the battle.
‘He still remains.’
The reason for that for BJ Archmage was, of course, because he had enough ability.
It’s literally like having your eyes open and your nose cut.
So Yehwa declared defeat.
“As of this time, the midfield guild will not interfere in any way until BJ Grand Mage’s boss monster raid is over.”
Declaring defeat clearly drew the line.
“I say it again. I will not interfere or intrude in any way until BJ Grand Mage is game over.”
As long as BJ Daemage doesn’t suffer a game over, the midfield guild won’t invade.
It was the moment when the Jungwon Guild blocked BJ Grand Mage’s cooperation proposal in advance.
